Chapter 66： Catch the sea at night

Chapter 66 Catching the sea at night

Back at home, sold ten catties of sea earthworms to Zhao Xia, and got 600 yuan.

By the way, I called Zhang Wei and asked him to come and fetch the fish at night.

As a result, when the two came over, they brought beer and some cooked food. Obviously they planned to have dinner at his house tonight.

Seeing this, Chu Mingcheng took out the small hairtail he caught last night, cut it into sections and put it directly into the oil pan.

Hairtail is just that good, it has no fish scales, and the silver skin on its body is actually the oil secreted by it, which is very nutritious. I also cooked a piece of hairtail and picked out the fish meat for Xiao Mi's meal.

"Ah Cheng, how is your boat?" In the room, the three toasted and drank a few sips of beer, and Chen Yang asked first.

He had all the money ready, but Chu Mingcheng never came to borrow it.

"Do you know how much a 12-meter three-category fishing boat costs?" Thinking of his plan to spend hundreds of thousands to buy a fishing boat, Chu Mingcheng now feels naive.

"How much? Didn't Brother Zhao Jun say that a hundred thousand is enough?" Zhang Wei asked curiously.

"Brother Zhao Jun is referring to the boat that is similar to his. In fact, a three-category fishing boat costs at least 500,000 yuan with complete equipment, so I borrowed some money from my dad and bought a 800,000 yuan boat."

"Hiss~" Zhang Wei gasped when he heard that it was so expensive, "Ah Cheng, you put too much chili powder in your deep-fried octopus!"

"Spicy food makes you more appetizing." Chen Yang said with a smile, "I didn't expect you to buy such a good one, won't you feel pressure?"

He also knows a little about boats. Before, he thought that Chu Mingcheng bought a boat to fish near the island, but he didn’t expect him to play with such a big boat.

Chu Mingcheng nodded: "There is pressure, so I plan to go to Xiamen City to develop. There are more fish resources there. I will learn to free dive by the way, and I can also go fishing and hunting rare fish in the future."

"It's impossible to combine fishing with hunting and fishing. In addition to renting a boat to collect fish to make a difference, I think 800,000 yuan may be earned back in a year."

As for chartering a boat, Chu Mingcheng is also making the final decision. If he could earn enough money alone, he would definitely not choose to go to sea with others.

"As long as you have a plan." Seeing that he already had a plan, Chen Yang stopped talking.

Zhang Wei was a little disappointed: "Oh, I didn't expect you to go to Xiamen City to develop. I wanted you to take me out fishing when I wanted to rest!"

"Come to Xiamen City if you are free, and I will take you out to sea when the time comes."

"It's a deal!"

Drinking today, Chu Mingcheng arranged for them to sleep at his own home, so as to save money for a surrogate driver.

Ten catties of sea earthworm Zhao Xia had already been taken away, and he still had seven catties at home, so he had to dig up 13 catties.

There is nothing to do today, the medical report will have to wait for a few days, and there is no way to apply for the driver's license test, so Chu Mingcheng took this time to dig up the sea worms.

And let Chen Qing and the others come to get it, and another thousand and two were credited.

Then Chu Mingcheng took good care of his fishing rods, and waited for He Zheng to call to catch big yellow croakers.

After waiting for a whole day, he didn't get a call. He didn't know what happened, so he had no choice but to continue to look for new aquatic products, so as to upgrade to level 1 as soon as possible, and get the ability to swim freely.

In this way, even if he doesn’t have a fishing and hunting license, he can still dive secretly to catch some easy-to-catch creatures.

He first went to dig some loach in the morning, and then caught some rice field crabs, experience value +2.

In the afternoon, he used the net he used to catch river prawns and groupers last time, and went to the ditch outside the sluice gate of the farm to catch prawns and hairy prawns.

Hairy prawns become dried shrimp skins. If it wasn’t for the reminder from the aquatic product guide, he wouldn’t even know he caught a hairy prawn. This thing is too small.

There is also a mudskipper here, and Chu Mingcheng took some effort to catch a small one.

And when catching mudskippers, he accidentally caught two kinds of crabs.

These two kinds of crabs are red claw crab and crab.

The red claw crab is also called the fiddler crab. Although it is small in size, it has a particularly large red claw. In the past, some people here in Chuming City specially caught this kind of crab and broke its claws, and it tasted very delicious when fried on a plate.

And some places will catch this kind of crab to make drunk crab or crab sauce.

Crabs are also similar small crabs, and the main way to eat them is also drunk crabs and crab sauce.

But this kind of crab is a kind of Xiangshou crab, which is different from the Xiangshou crab caught in Chu Mingcheng back then. This kind of crab can be sold for money, ten yuan a catty.

Those who can sell for money will be recorded in the aquatic illustration book after they are caught. Now the experience value has reached 42 points, and there are only 8 points left to upgrade.

But Chu Mingcheng encountered a difficult situation. He couldn't think of anything missing by the sea, so he had to go back to Yanmen Island and try his luck when the tide ebbed in the afternoon.

Looking at the time, before I knew it, it was October 22nd.

Today is the 27th day of the ninth lunar month, which is the middle tide, and the ebb tide at night is roughly from 4:00 pm to 11:00 pm.

Chu Mingcheng went there with a bucket, sea salt, tongs, a headlamp, and a small shovel for catching the sea after he had dinner at night.

He first came to the beach where he caught Pippi shrimp last time. After so many days, the beach has long since returned to its usual calm.

The Pippi shrimps that were all over the beach at that time should have attracted a lot of sea creatures to look for food.

But there is a high probability that there will be a lot of people rushing to the sea during that time, and he will definitely not be able to catch many things when he comes here now.

But Chu Mingcheng is only here to collect species today, and he doesn't care how many things he can catch.

Catching the sea on the beach is nothing more than looking for some clams, razor clams and some snails that like to lie on the sand.

It is nearly six o'clock now, the tide has receded, and the sun has already set.

Chu Mingcheng put a headlamp on his head and turned it on, and then looked for possible creatures on the beach.

It didn't take long before he found a small vertical hole. There was sea water in this small hole, and it was constantly rising and falling.

Chu Mingcheng's eyes lit up. There must be something in it, and there is a high probability that it will be razor clams.

He dug some of the sand on the surface with a small shovel, then took out sea salt and poured a little on the hole.

After a while, something like an elephant's trunk popped out of the hole.

Chu Mingcheng was not in a hurry to grab it. He waited for it to jump out a bit, exposing its shelled body, before he reached out and grabbed it, and then pulled the razor clam out of the sand.

The razor is about the size of his index finger, but the suction is not small. He obviously felt a resistance when he pulled it.

Harvest a razor clam, experience +1.

Then Chu Mingcheng continued to search on the beach. After three minutes, he finally found the second small hole.

But there is a small bulge next to the small hole, which is not a razor clam, but a clam with a high probability.

Chu Mingcheng dug deep with a shovel, and immediately shoveled out the contents, only to find that it was a conch.

Guessed wrong, a little embarrassing.

In the next five minutes, Chuming City didn't gain anything, and the beach rushed to the sea, so the efficiency was really low.

But he plans to search for another hour, and then go to the reef area to have a look.

It takes patience to catch the sea on the beach. Chu Mingcheng came to the area where the sea water was still submerged, and immediately found a starfish.

He is not bad in size, bigger than his palm. Pick it up and put it in the bucket, experience +1 again.

In the next hour, Chu Mingcheng found three more types of seafood, clams, jellyfish and sea anemones.

He looked at the experience points, it was already 47 points, and there are 3 points left to upgrade, so you can go to the reef area to have a look.
