Chapter 36
Wang Zhongqiu's house didn't have a miner's lamp or kerosene, so he went to Zhang Tao's house to ask. He was going to ask Zhang Tao to catch ricefield eels and loach together at night.Rice field eels and loach are very slippery, and it is definitely not enough to grab them directly with your hands.

So at this time, we need to use a kind of fish pliers specially used to clamp them. This Zhang Tao also has it. In the past, when his father Zheng Hu was at home, he would go to the paddy field to catch loach and eel at this time, so there is this kind of tool at home. of.

"Yeah, you have everything in your house, but I don't have anything in my house. I'll come to you after dinner tonight. How about we go catch fish together?"

Wang Zhongqiu saw that Zhang Tao took out the fish crate, fish tongs, torches, and kerosene jars, and immediately said excitedly that he felt that he had come to Zhang Tao in the right place.For other people, the adults in their children's families seldom let them get these things, so they couldn't find them at all, and the adults put them away.

"Would your parents want you to go out to catch fish at night?" Zhang Tao gave this guy a sideways look, and said a little uncertainly.This guy's family is all civil servants, and they don't need their help in the rice fields at home. Why would his parents let him go to catch fish at night?
"What are you afraid of? I've already figured out a way. I'll take my homework at night and I'll be at your house. Then I'll tell my parents that I'm coming to your home to do my homework. My parents also told me to learn more from you. , isn't that good?"

After listening to Zhang Tao's words, Wang Zhongqiu said triumphantly, as if he was quite proud of his quick wit.Seeing him like this, Zhang Tao was speechless. He was so proud of himself. If the labor and management want to catch fish, they can just say it. Then there is no need to find a reason?
During dinner, Zhang Cuihua said that she was going to the city for a show tomorrow, and asked Zhang Tao and his three brothers and sisters to stay at home and watch the chickens, ducks and pigs at home. Going to the city to see, Zhang Cuihua took a look at Zhang Tao, she didn't quite understand why Zhang Tao was going there.

Zhang Tao used to be in poor health, anemic, and weak. He would get motion sickness and vomit in a car, so he didn't like to go anywhere by car.I didn't expect that this time I wanted to go to the city to see, so Zhang Tao's mother asked a special question. "Aren't you afraid of motion sickness?"

"I won't get motion sickness anymore." Zhang Tao understood what his mother meant, and was worried that he would vomit on the road.

But Zhang Tao feels that he is in good health now, so he should not suffer from motion sickness. The other soul is still a person who wanders on the bus every day, and he is used to it.Seeing that Zhang Tao was so sure, Zhang Cuihua agreed to Zhang Tao's opinion and let him follow.

Zhang Yong can only envy him. He will face Xiaoshengchu this semester, and his studies are very intense. There are no Saturday and Sunday holidays, and he has to make up classes every day, so he can't go.

And Zhang Yan is still young, Zhang Cuihua is going to run errands, so she will definitely not take her there, so she will stay at home to watch the house, but at this time there is a TV at home, and there are so many children in the village, It won't make her too boring.

After talking about this, Wang Zhongqiu came to Zhang Tao's house with a pair of slippers and a homework book in his hand.Seeing that Zhang Tao had finished his meal, the guy winked at Zhang Tao, and signaled excitedly that he could start work.

Zhang Tao ignored him, he had already told his mother about going to catch eels at night, and Zhang Cuihua had no objections.At this moment, he prepared everything calmly, and then walked into the paddy field with Wang Zhongqiu and Wang Zhongqiu with the torch in one hand and the fish tongs in the other.

It's pitch black outside, and occasionally one or two bright spots can be seen in the distance, which should be someone catching fish at night.After they walked into the paddy field for a while, there were several more torches behind them, which meant that other people in the village had also come out to catch eels.

Generally, one or two catties can be caught in one night. A catty of rice field eels in the market can be sold for several yuan per catty, which is similar to the price of pork, and sometimes a little more expensive, so many men who have not gone out to work will go out to catch them at this time. Yes, it can be regarded as generating income for the family.

After Zhang Tao took Wang Zhongqiu for a while in the paddy field, he found that the guy behind him was completely unsuitable for this job. Occasionally, a mouse ran past the side or a resting night bird was startled by the fire and flew up. Make a fuss, because some big eels and loaches have already heard the sound and hid.

If it weren't for Zhang Tao's experience, knowing that there are more eels there and easier to catch, it is estimated that they will have very little harvest tonight.

This also made Zhang Tao more motivated to go to the city tomorrow. He will go to the city to buy some things, and then come back and make a simple fishing machine by himself.At this time, their electric fishing machine has not yet appeared, and they have not seen it for sale there, so Zhang Tao decided to make one by himself.

There is nothing wrong with his technology in this regard. A simple fishing machine is actually very simple. An oscillating transformer, a relay, a capacitor, a larger battery and a switch are enough.

The storage battery is easy to say, just buy two from the monkey's house and use it together. By the way, you can even ask for the miner's lamp. He works in the mine, and these things are often distributed there.

The remaining transformers, relays and capacitor switches will be bought in the city, so Zhang Tao decided to go to the city.There is a place in the city that sells these things, and Zhang Tao remembers them.

"Look! There's a big rice field eel over there, quickly pick it up!" Zhang Tao was thinking about this while staring at the paddy field under his feet, when Wang Zhongqiu beside him pointed at the side and shouted to Zhang Tao.

Zhang Tao looked in the direction he pointed, and the corners of his mouth immediately twitched after seeing clearly. "Pick up some yarn! That's a water snake, do you want me to catch it for you to play with?"

"Wow! Why are these water snakes running out to join in the fun at this time?" After listening to Zhang Tao's words, Wang Zhongqiu took a closer look and found that it was indeed a colorful water snake. He immediately said angrily, and grabbed a handful of mud from the ground. Throw it at the water snake.

Boys in rural areas are more courageous and are generally not afraid of water snakes. Because this kind of snake does not grow very large, it is not poisonous, and it is easy to be scared away, so they are not afraid. Catch the water snake and go to school to scare the girls.

The two walked around the paddy field, which took about two hours. Zhang Tao looked at the weight of the eel in the fish basket, estimated the time, and prepared to go back with Wang Zhongqiu.

But Wang Zhongqiu didn't seem to have had enough fun, and he didn't really want to go back so early. It was so hard to find an excuse to come out and play on Saturday night, and it was so easy to go back.Zhang Tao had no choice but to accompany him to the river again.

At this time, the paddy fields are basically patronized by people, and there are not many eels to catch. In addition, fish can be caught at this time along the river, and those fish like to move to the shore at night.

I went around the river and didn't catch any fish, not even a loach eel. Although I saw a lot of big fish swimming around, these fish were much more sensitive than loach eels. He ran away when he heard the sound, making Zhang Tao and Wang Zhongqiu depressed looking at the shadows of those fish.

In fact, loaches can be considered sensitive, but they usually drill into the mud instead of swimming, so this also provides an opportunity to catch them, directly into the mud, and often can catch those loaches.

Rice field eels are the best to catch. Probably these guys are at the top of the biological chain in paddy fields. They not only eat earthworms, they can also eat loaches and small rice field eels.

It seems that there are not many creatures in this paddy field that can threaten them, so they are more courageous. At night, they spread their whole bodies directly in the water, and it is most convenient to use fish claws to clamp them.

This time Zhang Tao said that Wang Zhongqiu had no complaints when he went back. Although the fish by the river seemed to be many and big, it was useless if they couldn't catch them, and there was nothing to go to the paddy fields.

So I honestly walked home with Zhang Tao. On the way, I met some people who caught fish like them and came back, and they would say hello to each other to see what they had harvested.

But when they saw Zhang Tao and Wang Zhongqiu, they were quite surprised. It was really hard for them to dare to go out to catch fish at night when they were so old.But when they looked at each other's harvest, they found that the two children had no fewer catches than they did, which really surprised them a little.

After returning home, Wang Zhongqiu and Zhang Yong showed off that he saw the big ricefield eel, and it took a lot of effort to catch that ricefield eel. After talking for half an hour, the guy was satisfied with his mouth. I went home with a flashlight in my homework book, but I didn't write a word on it.

This guy has no feeling for fish, he just has a feeling for catching fish, and his family is actually not bad for fish.Zhang Tao wondered if this guy would teach him a lesson if he went back and showed his mother the homework.

Zhang Tao got up early the next morning, took a shower after exercising as usual, then had breakfast and followed his mother to catch the bus into the city early.

They were lucky. The place they chose to take the car was in front of the town center. Once they got on the car, they could still sit in the same seat. When they walked to the front of the town center, a lot of people rushed in, The car was so full that the doors could hardly be closed.

The car was full of people, as well as all kinds of sundries brought into the city, and various vegetables collected by some dealers from the countryside. There were even a lot of things piled up on the top shelf of the car.

This slowed down the speed of the whole car on the road a lot, and with the muddy road all the way, the car drove staggeringly all the way, and before going far, someone in the car started to vomit directly out of the window.

 Thank you for my loneliness and no one understands, winky gave me a reward, I have been revising the village draft for the past few days, I don’t know how to change it, I am depressed. .I went to bed early last night, and I just saw the rewards from the two of you today, thank you.I would also like to thank all the book friends who have been voting for me and everyone who clicked on the collection, thank you for your support. ^_^!
