Time passes minute by minute!
At around five o'clock in the morning, the boat slowly docked, and the cart was already piled with a large amount of fish. Li Qingshan covered it with a layer of water plants, and then put the battery on it. By rough estimation, today's harvest was about 500 kilograms, which was similar to yesterday.
Four people...oh no, three people...!
The three people pushed the cart, with Li Qingshan walking in front, heading towards Tuxiang along the Shahe River. Along the way, there was also the old turtle's cage under Li Qingshan.
"Stop!"
Li Qingshan walked to the first old turtle cage, squatted down, grabbed the wooden stick inserted on the river bank, and dragged the tied rope toward the bank.
"Brother Shan, your bamboo cage is okay for holding chickens. Can you catch the old turtle?" Da Zhuang asked doubtfully.
At this time, the first cage was also pulled up.
Well, nothing.
Li Qingshan threw it on the cart and continued walking forward. Da Zhuang suddenly stopped talking.
Then there is the second ground cage.
Li Qingshan had high expectations for this ground cage, because the environment was suitable for the old turtle, and he could feel the weight of the rope as soon as he got it.
Why……!
Feeling happy, I quickly continued to pull upward.
Water came out of the underground cage, making a splashing sound, and a large amount of river water fell back again, causing splashes.
A yellow figure appeared inside the underground cage.
Old turtle!
Got it.
"Let me tell you, can this chicken cage really catch turtles?" Da Zhuang said with wide eyes, full of shock.
"What's a chicken cage? Didn't you hear what Brother Shan said? This is an old turtle cage, also called a ground cage. However, we have never seen a cage like this before. Brother Shan, did you invent this yourself?"
Zhao Hongqi asked curiously.
"So be it!"
Li Qingshan nodded. This method of catching turtles in ground cages seems to have not really appeared yet. According to records, it would be a few years before it first appeared.
"Brother Shan, you are so smart. Not only can you electrocute fish, but you can also catch turtles with a cage made of bamboo. It's really amazing."
"Yeah, and I caught him."
"This turtle must weigh at least five kilograms, right?"
"I remember yesterday that the person from the forestry station said that he would give our mountain brother 50 cents per pound. Wouldn't a five-pound old turtle be sold for two dollars and fifty cents each?"
