Chapter 364

Ye Yaodong took turns teaching the two of them how to wear this equipment, how to swim and move, and also explained some precautions.

He told them not to be curious and touch things randomly when they saw them, especially things they didn't recognize, and reminded them not to go to the bottom first.

Just in case, he also went into the water to accompany them to dive for a short distance, only about 4-5 meters. Seeing that they were handling it with ease, he surfaced.

They are all young people, there's nothing they can't understand, and their acceptance ability is very strong. They should also know the depth.

Both of them were going into the water for the first time and were full of freshness. Every time they went down, they only wanted to come up when the time was almost up.

Azheng actually surfaced with a sea cucumber in each hand. When he emerged from the water, he excitedly raised his hands high above his head and waved them.

"Look, what did I catch?"

Ye Yaodong was unimpressed; he knew this guy wouldn't be so well-behaved.

Hearing Xiao Xiao, however, jumped in surprise. "Did you dive to the seabed? Holy crap, if I had known, I wouldn't have been so obedient. Dongzi, I'm going into the water one more time..."

"Rest for a while. It's best not to dive with too high intensity; it's not good for the eardrums."

"It's fine, I didn't exceed ten meters deep just now, it should be fine. Do you have any nets or anything to hold goods that can hold things underwater? Wait for me to catch more treasures and we'll split them fifty-fifty."

"Right, right, right, it's best to bring tools to pry abalone. Holy crap, I saw so many on the underwater reef just now, but I didn't have handy tools to dig them. It pissed me off."

Azheng was heartbroken. He saw so many abalone just now but didn't have tools to dig them. He used his hands to pick for a long time but couldn't pick them off, and he couldn't get the small spiny lobster in the stone crack out either, which pissed him off to death. Fortunately, he got two sea cucumbers while wandering around.

Hearing Xiao Xiao was even more excited when he heard this, slapping his thigh and regretting not going to the bottom just now.

"I'm going, I'm going, let me go down and take another look."

Ye Yaodong shrugged. "Fine, if you want to go down, then go down and take another look. Pay attention to safety. If you feel something is wrong or uncomfortable, come up immediately."

"I know."

Hearing Xiao Xiao dived down again with the net bag, and the three people on the sea waited patiently.

Fortunately, it was relatively free at this moment. Seeing scattered squid swimming over in the surroundings, they could also scoop them up casually.

After Azheng went into the water and caught two sea cucumbers, his interest was extremely intense.

"Dongzi, where did you buy this equipment? Reveal it to us?"

"This is hard to get. Even if you have money, you might not be able to buy it. You guys had better not think about it. Occasionally, if you happen to encounter it and want to go into the water, I can still lend it to you to use."

"Sigh, then let's talk about it later. We don't have money now anyway."

"Work hard. It's only been half a year, and you can pay back the money you owe me. Then everything you earn next will be your own. Work slowly, and you'll get rich eventually."

"I haven't paid it back yet... huh? I paid it back? Oh... paid back... paid back... then remember to give me the IOU tomorrow."

"Huh? Grass, you want to renege, right? I'll break your third leg."

Azheng laughed and said, "Didn't you say it? You said I could pay back the money I owe you in half a year. Hurry up, return the IOU to me when we go back."

"Fine, bring 600 in interest."

"Grass, is this usury?"

"Nine out, thirteen back, look it up, and there's compound interest."

"Go die on the side, I'll give you a fart."

The two of them chatted and joked, not bored at all. Ye's father was organizing the ground cage nets on the side, and he also had things to keep busy with. It was rare not to be in a rush.

This time, Hearing Xiao Xiao returned to the water surface with satisfaction.

"Holy crap, there are really so many abalone down there. I suddenly understand why you have these goods every day? It's fortunate that you mostly returned to shore when it was dark before."

"Come up first."

Ye Yaodong was also very happy to see that the net bag at his waist was full of abalone. "You dug abalone? This net bag isn't light either. You can leave it on the seabed and wait for someone to come up before pulling the rope up."

"Oh right, you still have experience. I'll do it like that next time. There's a small spiny lobster and a sea cucumber down there. Finding these is a bit strenuous and wastes time. It's faster to dig abalone; they just stick to the stones, and a quick pry and it's done." Hearing Xiao Xiao was excited and beaming.

"You're up, then it's my turn..."

Ye Yaodong grabbed him. "Rest for a while, what's the rush?"

"Of course I'm in a rush. I didn't bring anything when I went down before and missed so many goods. No, I have to go down and dig more."

"Underwater pressure is very damaging to the eardrums and also consumes physical strength. You guys take it easy."

Although he also wanted to find a few helpers, he had to remind them of what he should remind them of. There is no hyperbaric oxygen therapy now.

"Don't worry, how many times have we just gone into the water? It's only ten meters deep, what's there to be afraid of? Let's consider this after we've been diving for a few years."

They had just experienced the joy of diving and the joy of harvest and were in high spirits. Since they happened to be free, they had to go into the water a few more times no matter what.

After speaking, Azheng quickly put on his equipment again and jumped into the water.

Ye's father frowned and shouted, "It's fine if you want to go into the water to hunt for some goods, but you have to pay attention to safety."

Hearing Xiao Xiao thinks about things more comprehensively and thoroughly. Looking at the goods poured out of the net bag just now, while happy, he also thought about it.

"Dongzi, brothers have to settle accounts clearly. Small favors and small goods are fine, but this abalone is not. This isn't cheap and can sell for a lot of money. We can't just keep it for ourselves after digging it. This equipment is yours, the goods under this reef were also discovered by you first, and you also have to be delayed waiting here..."

"It's fine, everyone is a brother who grew up wearing the same pair of shorts..." Ye Yaodong said politely.

Although they are friends, usually jokes are jokes and fights are fights, but the polite words that should be said still have to be said.

"That's what I say, if it were just going into the water once or twice, I wouldn't be polite with you. But look, I'm also a bit greedy. I was thinking that you're alone and can't go into the water many times a day."

"Just like you said, underwater pressure is damaging to the eardrums, and the number of times you go into the sea every day can't be too many. But it's different when multiple people take turns going into the water. The goods you can get are definitely much more than one person."

Ye Yaodong nodded in appreciation. He just likes friends who can play together but also have a sense of proportion and are clear-headed.

"I understand what you mean."

Seeing that he didn't object, Hearing Xiao Xiao said happily, "It's good that you don't object to us getting a share."

"I'm too happy to have two more laborers working for me!"

"Pfft, to put it nicely, we're partners."

"Right, right, right, Boss Lin is right."

"Wait until Azheng comes up later, I'll go down one more time, and then we'll split the goods at the end."

"Hmm, you don't have to give me half, one-third is fine. Three people, one share each. I provide the equipment, you guys provide the labor."

Hearing Xiao Xiao was surprised. "Really? Boss Ye is so generous? Then this little brother won't be polite."

"Boss Lin is humble, why are you calling yourself a little brother?"

"Oh, following Brother Dong means having meat to eat..."

"Where, where... just barely mixing a meal, everyone is our own people..."

Ye's father listened to them blowing their own horns, Boss Lin, Boss Ye, Brother Dong, little brother... his mouth twitched uncontrollably, and he rolled his eyes. Fortunately, there was no one else around, otherwise, his face would have been flushed red.

Really shameless.

And blowing each other's horns.

No wonder they can become friends. Their ability to blow each other's horns is first-class, and their skin is really thick. People are going to die listening to it.
