Chapter 580: Catch the sea

Views:

"Brother-in-law, did you sleep well last night?" Looking at Jiang Hai walking out of the room, Ai Xiaohui, who was squatting by the drainage ditch outside the yard and brushing his teeth, asked with a smile on his face. After hearing his words, Jiang Hai also retracted his half-yawn, and then smiled brightly. Did you sleep well this night? Uh... I guess I can't be considered sleeping.

"Even though we are in the countryside, the air here is quite good and it is quiet at night. The quality of sleep is quite good, but it is much better than when I was in high school in the city." Looking at Jiang Hai, he felt slightly better. With an embarrassed look, uh, as if he didn't pay attention at all, Ai Xiaohui continued to speak, and Jiang Hai didn't say anything after hearing his words.

To be honest, he didn't sleep well that night. He hugged Ai Xiaoxi to sleep at ten o'clock in the evening.

Ruanxiang was in her arms, but her parents were next door, and Ai Xiaoxi's bed was still made of wood. Maybe it was in some disrepair. There was some noise when she went to bed, so Jiang Hai didn't dare to make any move.

But an energetic young man, holding a big beautiful girl in his arms and doing nothing all night, is indeed a little sleepy.

He was confused and didn't know what time he fell asleep, because this place is located in the east of China.

Although China is a large place, it only has one time zone, Imperial Capital Time, so it is inevitable that the sun will rise very early in the east.

During the hottest period of summer, the sky starts to break out at almost three o'clock in the morning in Bingcheng.

It’s almost the same here now. When it gets bright at three o’clock, the chickens in the village start to crow. When the chickens start to crow, they wake up the dogs. Around four o’clock, the dogs start to bark. When the dogs bark, they wake up the cows. Then the cows began to bray, and at five o'clock, the villagers who needed to farm had already woken up. Those who drove cattle and those who went to the fields became completely lively.

Jiang Hai did the math and found out that he probably only slept for about three hours, and it was still a light sleep.

Now he applauds his foresight. There are chickens, dogs, and cows in his manor, but whether they are chickens or cows, they are far away from where he lives. At least they can't disturb him in the morning.

Unlike now, it was too torturous. After blowing the wind outside and calming down temporarily, Jiang Hai returned to the room, took a cup of hot water and started brushing his teeth. What was originally in Ai Xiaoxi's home? No.

But since Ai Xiaoxi got money from Jiang Hai, her family's life has improved a lot.

Although the TV and refrigerator were not replaced, the earth stove used for cooking was replaced with a natural gas one.

There is also a water heater and bathroom heater installed in the bathroom. At least you can take a bath all year round. You can wash your face and brush your teeth in the morning and wash your feet at night. There is no problem. This is indeed a lot more convenient.

After Jiang Hai received the hot water, he didn't go outside to clean it like Ai Xiaohui, but finished it directly in the bathroom. After everything was tidied up, Jiang Hai appeared in the living room at home refreshed.

Seeing that Jiang Hai had woken up, Ai Xiaoxi's mother also said a few words to Jiang Hai. The general idea was to ask if she slept well last night and why she didn't sleep a little longer. Then she went Got busy in the kitchen.

Ai Xiaoxi's family only has a small amount of land, and all that land is contracted out. They don't rely on the land to make money anyway.

Seeing that Jiang Hai seemed to be in a bad mood, Ai Xiaoxi's mother asked him to take a rest. Then she went into the kitchen and said she was getting up to make noodles for Jiang Hai. Of course, Ai Xiaoxi Xi also quietly told her last night that the dishes should be lighter, otherwise Jiang Hai would not have anything to eat here.

"Brother-in-law, let's play the game console!" Seeing his mother going into the kitchen to work, Ai Xiaohui ran in with a smile, looked at Jiang Hai who was still in a daze, and said proactively, he wanted to play last night, But it's a pity that I didn't play it. Now I want to play it no matter what.

"Who knows if this TV can be played? Let's study it." After hearing his words, Jiang Hai was idle anyway. He also rubbed his face and stood up, and started working with Ai Xiaohui. He had to admit that , Ai Xiaohui is lucky.

Although the resolution of this big-head TV is very poor, the sockets are quite complete, and the game console was finally installed.

After installing it, connected to WIFI, logged in to the account, and the two started playing the game.

The game they are playing now is called Halo. This game is very popular now whether it is on the game console platform or the PC platform. This game is about the alliance between humans in the future and the religious race of Orion. The war between the "Star Alliance" is a big game. It is a first-person shooting game. Jiang Hai could not play this kind of game before.

Because he suffers from 3D vertigo, he often watches 3D TV at home, and he also always plays games.

So he gradually adapted to it later on, and now in a fight, he is naturally much more powerful than Ai Xiaohui.

By the time Ai Xiaoxi showed up, the two of them had gone crazy and kept shouting in the living room.

"Please keep your voice down, you've woken me up..." Ai Xiaoxi said dissatisfiedly as she rubbed her messy hair.

Maybe it's because this sister has been very prestigious since she was a child, so when she heard Ai Xiaoxi's words, Ai Xiaohui's voice suddenly became quieter.

"By the way, didn't you say you were going to catch the sea today? Are your things ready?" Seeing Ai Xiaohui calm down, Ai Xiaoxi sat next to Jiang Hai and casually picked up this picture from the table. He said while looking at the instruction manual of the plate.

"Yes, didn't you say you were going to catch the sea today? Can't you do this as early as possible?" After hearing Ai Xiaoxi's words, Jiang Hai remembered, didn't Ai Xiaohui say he was going to catch the sea? Why are you sitting here playing games now

"Brother-in-law, you can't be in a hurry when you are chasing the sea. Brother-in-law, you are about to die..." Ai Xiaohui couldn't help but smile after hearing Jiang Hai's words.

This also made Jiang Hai temporarily turn his mind back to the game, but he was still a little puzzled.

"Catching the sea also depends on the time. According to the lunar calendar, the time for catching the sea is also different. From the first to the thirtieth day of the lunar month, the lowest tide time is different every day. Today is the 15th, which is the best time to catch the sea. It should be around 11 o'clock. We went there at 9 o'clock and just arrived when the tide ebbs. If it sets on this side, we will pick it up from behind. We can pick it up until about 1 p.m." After all, Ai has been living by the sea since he was a child. Seeing Jiang Hai's doubts, Xiao Xi explained to Jiang Hai.

Hearing her words, Jiang Hai couldn't help but sigh. To be honest, he really didn't know these things.

In fact, it has been shown on TV before, such as in the animal world. Many people think that the moon is of little use. After all, it is just a companion satellite of the earth. The reason why it shines is because the sun shines on it. The subsequent refraction on the earth does not seem very important for such a planet.

But in nature, the moon is not as important as it is related to the timing of tides.

Tides are related to the ocean currents, and ocean currents are related to plankton in the sea. Plankton is the bottom of the biological chain.

If the plankton is destroyed, the biological chain will also be destroyed, and the earth will be finished by then. Therefore, the moon is actually very important.

After listening to Ai Xiaoxi's words, Jiang Hai also roughly understood something. He had been running the fishery for a year, but he really hadn't paid attention to it.

But just do what Ai Xiaoxi and Ai Xiaohui say. These two siblings know this very well.

After playing for a while, Ai Xiaoxi's mother started eating. Breakfast was noodles.

People in Shandong Province like to eat pasta very much. The steamed buns, steamed buns and noodles in Shandong Province are also famous in the country.

Of course, the most famous noodles in the country are from Shaanxi, but the noodles here are also quite good.

Ai Xiaoxi's mother makes braised noodles, probably because she listened to Ai Xiaoxi's words. The braised noodles this time are very light. It is made of lean meat, fungus, and day lily. It tastes very good. Jiang Hai I ate two large bowls of noodles before putting down the bowl.

Seeing Jiang Hai eating happily, Ai Xiaoxi's mother also made some calculations in her mind. It seemed that when cooking tonight, she would have to make it according to the taste. After breakfast, Jiang Hai and Ai Xiao Hui played the game for a while longer.

Then Ai Xiaoxi left with Jiang Hai and Ai Xiaoxi at around 8:30, each carrying a small bucket. There were some tools in the bucket. There were four tools in total, one of which looked like a small one. When I lived in a bungalow, I had a stove hook for making fire in winter, a small curved shovel, a sharp awl like a screwdriver, and a very thin kite string.

These four tools all have their own uses. The hook is used to hook things. For example, if the small crabs they want to catch get into the reef cave, they must use this thing to take them out.

The small curved shovel is used to catch razor clams that have penetrated into the beach.

The small shovel is used to dig out the shellfish attached to the reef. The last rope is used to tie the crabs after catching them. Otherwise, these guys may escape from the bucket, and then the work will be in vain. .

After everything was prepared, Jiang Hai and them came to the beach to the east of the small village. Because there were many rocks and rocks on the beach, you were not allowed to walk barefoot on it. If you were not careful, , it will leave a wound on the foot. Jiang Hai and the others walked over wearing shoes. When they came over, there were already some people busy on the beach here. It seemed that today was the Mid-Autumn Festival, and they came to catch the sea. There are quite a few villagers.

Jiang Hai and the other three found a slightly remote place and walked up there. The sea water had just begun to recede and most of the sand had not yet been exposed, so their initial target was mainly on the rocks. .
