after that.

After some haggling and bargaining.

Fang Hao bought over a thousand bottles and jars directly.

Each bicycle was barely able to fit back in the box by strapping four large snakeskin bags to a wooden frame.

These things aren't very heavy!

It mainly takes up a bit of space.

Thankfully, the boss helped deliver the fishing nets and fish traps; otherwise, they really wouldn't have been able to bring back so many.

Around four or five in the afternoon.

Fang Hao and Fang Qiang slowly rode their bicycles back to their doorstep.

The journey, carrying four large sacks of jars, took much longer than the trip there.

"Wife!"

-

"We're back—"

Fang Hao shouted at Song Yaxin.

Ever since I was reborn, I like to shout something into the house every time I come back from outside.

"Um?"

"What did you buy so much of?"

Song Yaxin looked at the two bicycles, which were full of things, and was immediately puzzled.

What exactly did they buy?

They add up to several large snakeskin bags.

Each bicycle had two bags hanging horizontally from a wooden stick, and then two more bags were placed on the seat frame—it looked completely full.

"Aluminum cans and tin cans".

Fang Hao said with a smile.

Then they started unloading the items.

They bought almost all the aluminum cans and tin cans from the scrap yard.

Living standards are relatively limited these days!

In reality, relatively few people are willing to buy Jianlibao or canned beverages.

These bottles and jars are from a long-accumulated inventory at the recycling station.

'

"Why buy these things?"

Song Yaxin's brows furrowed involuntarily.

At noon, Fang Hao asked her for two thousand yuan, saying he wanted to go to town to buy crab nets and traps.

Did you end up buying a whole bunch of bottles and jars?

What is the purpose of this thing?

"Catch the octopus."

"Don't underestimate these bottles and jars. Just open the caps, drill a hole in the bottom, string them together, and throw them directly into the sea. Those octopuses will crawl in—"

Fang Hao then began to explain.

Song Yaxin is not from the seaside.

It's understandable if you don't understand this.

I briefly explained to her the principle behind using these bottles and jars to catch octopuses.

"That's amazing?"

Song Yaxin was also surprised.

I never thought you could catch fish with bottles and jars.

This is the first time I've heard such a statement; it's certainly beyond my comprehension.

Ever since I married Fang Hao.

She felt that her knowledge and understanding from the first twenty years of her life seemed somewhat insufficient.

At the same time, I also think Fang Hao is quite amazing.

It seems like they know everything!

"Absolutely!"

"When has your husband ever lied to anyone?"

Fang Hao immediately smiled and said.

Deep down, I was quite confident about this, because in later generations, many fishermen used this thing to catch countless octopuses.

An absolute godsend!

'

'

Song Yaxin felt somewhat helpless.

This guy always likes to flirt.

Even in front of outsiders, he keeps calling her "wife" and "husband" without any restraint or embarrassment.

Fang Qiang, who was standing next to him, felt a little uncomfortable.

I'm a little full from this dog food.

"Wife."

"Go to the storage room next door and get me two hammers and two large nails. They're in that big toolbox—"

Followed by.

Fang Hao then spoke to Song Yaxin.

Get ready to start living!

One thousand aluminum cans need to be handmade to grind open the caps, then punch holes and thread them.

This is quite a workload.

"Okay, okay."

Song Yaxin nodded.

Then he quickly turned around and went to get it.

Although she had some doubts about whether this thing could really catch octopuses, she also felt that Fang Hao wasn't the kind of person who would talk nonsense.

"Yankees!"

"These next couple of days might be a bit tough."

"Let's see if we can finish processing these jars quickly and put them in the sea—"

Fang Hao then turned to Fang Qiang and said.

The next task is to prepare the jars.

Thousands of jars!

That will definitely take some time.

Unlike in later times, there are no manufacturers that specialize in producing octopus jars, so that they can be used directly.

On ordinary days, villagers might use things like bottles, bamboo sections, or large snail shells.

In short.

Wisdom resides among the people.

However, it also has certain limitations.

For example, many fishermen in the village know that octopuses like to crawl into these narrow holes and hollows, and they know how to use empty bamboo tubes and bottles to catch them, but no one has ever thought of making and using such tools in large quantities.

"no problem."

Fang Qiang patted his chest and said.

This is a piece of cake.

"hammer!"

soon.

Song Yaxin came out with a hammer and a large iron nail, and handed them directly to Fang Hao and Fang Qiang.

Get ready to watch their performance.

"Let's get started!"

Fang Hao didn't waste any words.

Simply untie one of the snakeskin bags.

Then he took out a Jianlibao can and rubbed it directly on the hard floor. After rubbing it a dozen times, the cap fell off.

And the bottle opening is very smooth!

Many kids know this clumsy method.

I used it a lot when I played house; it could easily grind off the top of a bottle in no time.

Actually, it would be faster if we had a machine!

Unfortunately, there wasn't one.

'

"Are you sure this thing can really catch an octopus? Will it stupidly crawl in here and then not run away when you try to catch it?"

The more Song Yaxin looked, the more doubtful she became.

Don't we use nets to catch fish in the sea?

Can you really catch anything after opening these aluminum cans and tin cans?

"Absolutely!"

"Octopuses love to crawl into these small holes; we might be able to catch quite a few."

Fang Hao assured him with a smile.

This prop was specially designed based on the habits of octopuses.

It's similar to the method of striking a net.

The large yellow croaker is stunned directly by shock.

The two otoliths in the skull resonate, causing both large and small fish to become unconscious, thus allowing them to be caught in one fell swoop.

These are all effective methods that fishermen living in coastal areas have summarized based on their years of fishing experience.

"oh oh."

"Then I'll help you with that too—"

Song Yaxin nodded.

I'm ready to lend a hand.

"Just help me string these prepared bottles and jars together!"

"I'll teach you how to dress—"

Fang Hao assigned Song Yaxin a relatively easy task: simply stringing the jars together with rope.

It doesn't require much effort!

It's purely manual work.

"Uh-huh."

Song Yaxin nodded.

Then listen carefully to Fang Hao's explanation.

This isn't difficult!

Each jar was strung together with a rope.

Each jar is spaced a certain distance apart.

Then we'll just drop these jars into the sea in a row, like casting a fishing net.

Just wait for the harvest.

Collecting the jars is similar to collecting fish traps. You just need to collect all the jars and check them one by one. If there are octopuses, you can pry them out with something.

Then.

The three of them got to work with great enthusiasm.

The sounds of friction and knocking continued.

In fact, Fang Qiang and Song Yaxin still had reservations about what Fang Hao wanted to do, feeling that the specific effect would depend on the final result.
