Chapter 155 Grouper? Rock Clam

The four of them were so excited that one person took a bowl and rushed directly to the reef. They only focused on the oysters growing naturally on the stone wall. They turned a blind eye to other vegetables, sea melon seeds, bergamot, small abalone, ox eyes, etc.

Now how can these be as attractive as oysters?

It’s not too late to dig out those things later.

Few people come to these isolated islands. Occasionally, people with boats at home may come here to dig some food back. Fish and shrimps every day also need some shellfish for a change of taste. People like them come here every three days to try their luck. It’s relatively rare, and everyone would rather spend their time fishing in the sea in exchange for money.

Ye Huimei also happily took a bowl and joined their fresh oysters. After the first bite, she jumped up in surprise.

"Ahhh...Pearl!"

"Ah? Damn it?" Ye Yaodong turned his head when he heard her voice of surprise, "You dig one out!"

"Ah~ let's see, let's see..." Others also ran over in a hurry, all envious.

"How come you two siblings are so lucky?"

"Yes, I have opened several of them, but they have never been opened."

Ye Yaodong said with a smile: "It's normal that no oysters have been opened. I heard that only one oyster can be opened out of 20,000 oysters. My sister should be a newbie and have a lot of staff."

He may be blessed by Mazu! There will be a lucky bonus when you are reborn!

Ye Huimei's face was flushed with excitement. She held the pearl in her hand and kept looking left and right in the sun. "Third brother, give me the two you just gave me to compare."

Ye Yaodong dug into his pocket and found that the two ones he just had were exactly the same size and were rare to be even and round.

"I'm a lot smaller than you."

"It's pretty good. I'll dig up another pair and make them into pearl earrings for dowry in the future." Xiao Xiao said jokingly, causing Ye Yaodong to give him a sharp look.

"Hurry up and get to work. No one has visited this island for I don't know how long. Each of the oysters has a 5+ rating. They are super fat. If you dig two of them, you will find pearls. Maybe there are some."

The specifications of oysters are divided by weight. 1+ means 1 tael upwards, 2+ means 2 taels upwards, 3+, 4+, etc. If 5+ is a first-class large oyster.

These pearls are the result of the oyster's biological processes as it protects itself from foreign substances.

A grain of foreign material, such as a grain of sand, could get into the oyster and get stuck between the mantle and shell. This can irritate the mantle, and it's like having sawdust on your fingers and you might get irritated by rubbing it.

To protect themselves, the oyster's natural response will be to mask the irritant, which it does by covering the irritant with a nacreous layer of mantle.

Pearls in shellfish are usually formed in this way, that is, the probability is relatively low, and it takes a long time to form.

Everyone didn't understand what 5+ was, so they just skipped it. They continued working with a bowl in one hand and a tool in the other, full of motivation.

Ye Huimei no longer wanted to go fishing, but also worked hard to open oysters.

The oysters were big, and Ye Yaodong's small bowl was filled up in a short time. He straightened up and looked around, and found that the tide had receded again, and more shellfish were exposed on the surface of the reef.

He thought that since there was nothing left to store, he might as well dig it back and open it slowly. He didn't know if he could still find pearls.

….

These two are enough. Xiaoxiao's words just now reminded him that he can keep them for himself and make a pair of pearl earrings for his wife in the future.

He took the rice bowl back to the place where the pots and pans were placed, took out a few sacks from the bucket, spread out three and shook them and grabbed them together in his hands. He did not go to their side to join in the fun, but went in the opposite direction to dig nearby. , I dig whatever I see and just throw it into the sack according to categories.

Any snail on the island is as big as a longan, and each dandelion grows whole. Not to mention other things, Ye Yaodong picked it up indescribably, but he only regretted that he didn't have enough hands.

At this time, he heard another excited cry...

"Ah ha ha ha~ I finally dug one out!" The fat man held up a bead and was ecstatic.

Ah Zheng knocked the bowl with envy, "Made, when did oysters and pearls become so common?"

"That's right!" Xiaoxiao agreed unbalancedly.

The fat man said proudly, "This is my good luck. Today is not in vain."

"snort……"

The two of them, who still found nothing, continued to work hard. The fat man seemed to have tasted the sweetness, and poured the full oysters in the bowl directly into the pot, freeing the bowl to continue filling.

Ye Yaodong took a look and couldn't help but sigh that the fat man was lucky. Looking at the sack that had just been filled with a lot of oysters, he wondered if he could get pearls when he took it home?

When the goods on the short reef were almost dug, he climbed up to a higher place with the sack. However, due to the slippage on the soles of his feet and the weight of the sack on his hand, he fell directly and fell to the ground on all fours...

"Ah~fuck~"

Others heard his exclamation and thought he had found something good again. When they turned around, they found that he had dropped it.

"Hahaha~ I was a little nervous. I thought you found something big again." Azheng deliberately patted his chest in an exaggerated way.

Xiaoxiao said exaggeratedly: "It even made me panic~"

"Fuck...***, I don't know how to care."

Ye Huimei said with a smile: "Since Third Brother, you can still curse, then it should be fine."

He patted his butt and stood up, saying speechlessly: "The tide has just gone out. If it hadn't gone out, it would have slipped off the rocks and rolled into the sea. Even if it wasn't serious injury, it would have peeled off the skin. If you don't know how to swim, you would be in trouble."

"Then you sit down and rest for a while? Stop crawling?"

He looked up at the steep reef. There were many shells growing densely on it. He hesitated whether to climb up again?

At this time, I realized that my left arm hurt a little. When I lifted it up, I saw that there were several long cuts, the clothes were torn, and a few blood beads popped out.

"Damn, so sharp."

Ye Huimei heard his movement and walked over to take a look, "Are you really hurt? Then sit down and rest for a while. Third brother, I will dig more for you."

He patted her head and said, "You don't have to worry about it. Go ahead and do your thing. Don't dig so hard. Be careful and don't climb up. The tide has just gone out, and these rocks are very slippery, and the shells on them are very sharp. Just hang around down there."

"Oh fine."

He threw the sack aside, rolled up his trousers, and carried the bucket and fire tongs. He planned to catch the sea first and look for good things around the low tide, or an easier place to climb.

….

Ye Huimei thought about it and gave up crawling. She followed Ye Yaodong's example and rolled up her trousers and followed him with a sack, planning to dig some at a good location underneath.

He walked down until the tide reached his calves, and then walked outside the rock. He saw a very large nine-segmented shrimp swimming in the tide. He picked it up with tongs and threw it directly into the bucket. One of them is not small, it looks close to one or two.

Not far away, there was an octopus shaking its tentacles. He took a few steps with the water in his eyes, stepped forward and put it in the bucket.

At this moment, from the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a group of pale brown fish swimming in a shallow puddle between two rocks.

His eyes suddenly lit up and he hurriedly took a few steps forward. After taking a closer look, he realized that this was not a rock clam?

The body is pale brown, with blue tones mixed in. There is a blue vertical stripe under the eye sockets on the head, and the fins are yellow, so it is also called yellow-winged in some places.

This is a species of sea bream. No wonder he thought it looked like a sea bream when looking at it from a distance, but he was not sure what kind of sea bream it was.

This kind of fish generally travels at night and is a nocturnal fish. During the day, it mostly gathers around independent reefs or at the junction of sand and mud, and disperses out to look for food at night.

At this moment, the tide receded and they were exposed. Ye Yaodong made a rough estimate and found that there were about twenty or thirty fish here. Each one seemed to weigh more than two or three pounds. They were not small, and the fish was still withered. Carved nobles are not cheap.

From his surprise discovery to the moment he got closer and made a mental assessment, it only took a few seconds.

He excitedly shouted directly to Ye Huimei: "Little sister, go help me get the fishing net, hurry up."

There was so much joy in his voice that everyone could hear it.

"Did you find something good, Third Brother?"

"What else? Dongzi?"

"Go and get it for me first."

The sea water kept washing, and he was worried that they would swim out of the puddle and run to the sea, so they would not be able to carry them all together.

Ye Huimei saw that he was in a hurry, so she hurried back to help him fish the net.

The fat man climbed down from the rock and curiously planned to go over and take a look and stretch his waist. His waist couldn't bear to keep bending like this.

"Little sister, what did your brother find again? Are you so excited?"

"I don't know either, I didn't even see it."

Ye Huimei took the fishing net and hurriedly sent it over. When she got closer, she saw it was a group of snappers.

"Ah? So many fish! Third brother, what kind of sea bream is this? I only know black sea bream, yellow sea bream and true sea bream!"

Ye Yaodong lifted the fishing net and replied happily, "This is a rock clam."

"Grouper? No, this is not sea bream..."

"It's a clam, a rock clam."

"Stone clams?" The fat man also came over, "Damn it, there's a whole puddle full of them!"

His voice immediately attracted Azheng, who was still struggling.

"What? Groupers are everywhere in the puddle?"

"What kind of grouper is it? Tiger spot? Isn't it?"

The two of them came down from the rock in shock.

The fat man said angrily: "You idiot, you said it was a rock clam! You still have grouper, grouper, tiger, your head, tiger, tiger grouper is not as valuable as this fish..."

Ye Yaodong quickly divided the fish in the puddle into buckets many times, and happily handed them to the two people who had just ran over.

"It's a rock clam!"

"Fuck~"

The two of them didn't know what to say anymore, so they could only say "fuck" in unison.

"Pearls, there are no pearls, there are no fish, there are no fish, it's too late, I'll just watch you get rich alone..."

"Made, this bucket is worth a lot of money. Dongzi found it again! Let's go and carry the bucket around. He must have found all the good things..."

Return to the small fishing village of 1982.
