Chapter 174 Big Phoenix Snail



Liu Jiang stopped the boat beside the rocks of the isolated island.

He was guarding the boat alone, while the other brothers and sisters all rolled up their trouser legs to their thighs, took their tools, and jumped in like dumplings.

"Wow, there are so many oysters on this reef!" Fortunately, Xie Wan did not have claustrophobia, and she was shocked by the spectacular sight.

Liu Yumei said: "Normally, few people come here, and oysters don't sell for much, so no one would specially drive a boat here to dig them."

Xie Wan didn’t care about that.

She loved the feeling of freedom of the oyster.

Now, in her eyes, the big reef is no longer just a piece of stone.

It seemed to have turned into a huge charcoal grill, with countless oysters floating on it with the faint aroma of minced garlic.

Xie Wan swallowed his saliva while digging hard.

While digging, he also hid in the space.

She wanted to bring some back for Qin Muye to try, since the space could keep it fresh.

"Ah, is this wild abalone? How many abalones does this head contain?"

Xie Wan was going crazy when she saw an abalone as big as her fist.

Seeing her mad look, digging desperately with her hands and feet, Liu Yumei almost laughed to death.

"Don't worry, cousin. I'll help you dig. I'll bring you everything I've dug."

Just when Xie Wan had calmed down a little from the excitement of eating abalone, he turned a corner and saw clusters of Buddha's hands.

Buddha's hand is also called pen holder, and its flesh is particularly delicious. Xie Wan had only tasted it once in his previous life, when he went to Sanya.

Then she saw many shells whose names she couldn't remember.

Liu Yumei introduced them to her one by one: "This is called spicy snail, this is called shrimp snail, and that is sesame snail..."

Children like Liu Yumei who were born by the sea find it difficult to understand the madness that Xie Wan, a child from the inland world of the future, feels when he sees the densely packed seafood.

There is less pollution in this era, the ocean is far richer than in later generations, and the price of seafood is also much lower than in later generations.

The wooden barrels they brought were already full.

Fortunately, everyone brought a urea bag.

No one noticed that Xie Wan was digging the hardest, but her urea bag was always only half full.

After digging for more than an hour, everyone's backs were bent too much, so they prepared to go back.

Xie Wan's waist also hurts. He didn't feel it just now because he was so excited, but now he has to keep bending his waist and the pain is so severe that he feels numb.

She shook her half-full urea bag and threw it to Xie Yuanchao.

"Brother, help me hold it, I feel like I can't move."

Xie Yuanchao took her urea bag, took a look at it, and laughed at her: "You shouted the loudest, but in the end you dug more than the third brother."

Xie Wan said he wanted to stand for a while.

The others went to the boat first.

Xie Yuanchao put his things down and came back to pick her up, "Are you really that bad? I'll carry you over."

This bending over has little to do with practicing martial arts, but has more to do with whether you bend over often to work.

Xie Wan's waist was indeed in pain.

She could have walked by herself, but finally she found an older brother willing to carry her on his back, so she acted coquettishly and lay on him.

Xie Yuanchao, a man who dotes on his sister, was dancing happily on the rocks with his sister on his back. He probably wanted to show off his skills and show off in front of his sister. He danced too freely and even God couldn't stand it. Suddenly, his foot slipped and the brother and sister slid down the reef together.

Fortunately, there was a reef nearby to hold me back, so I didn't fall directly to the ground.

There was shallow sea water under their feet, and their feet were completely soaked in the water.

Xie Wan suddenly bent down again and picked up a red conch bigger than his two palms from under his feet.

"This conch is so beautiful. I want to take it back and use it as a decoration."

Xie Yuanchao also thought it was beautiful and asked her to hold it carefully.

Liu Jiang was amazed after seeing their catch. He was even a little worried that the boat had too much draft.

Everyone looked at the big red conch in Xie Wan's hand, and even Liu Jiang and Liu Yumei didn't know what kind of conch it was.

After returning to the dock, Liu Yumei and Liu Jiang kept three swordfish and sold the others at the purchasing point at the dock.

A total of 15 yuan was sold for it. Liu Jiang wanted to share it with everyone, but no one else wanted it.

They carried the urea bags back to Xie Xiaoling's home.

Liu Jiang gave the money from selling fish to Xie Xiaoling.

Xie Xiaoling said to everyone cheerfully: "I told you, my little girl is so pretty, how could Mazu dislike her?

Look, this mackerel that is usually hard to catch is the one that Mazu gave to our Xiaowan, isn't it? "

Liu Jiang and his wife knew that it was Xie Xiaoling who was calling them.

Liu Jiang touched the back of his head and smiled foolishly, "Yes, Xiaowan is a lucky star. I have never had a net explode in all these years offshore. Today is the first time."

His wife curled her lips and pinched him secretly, blaming him for giving all the money to Xie Xiaoling.

Xie Xiaoling insisted on giving it to Xie Wan, but Xie Wan quickly said, "Fourth Aunt, I have a salary, I don't want this money."

Xie Xiaoling stuffed the money into Xie Xing's hand again, and Xie Xing also shrank back under Xie Wan's gaze.

"Fourth Aunt, I don't want it either. I have pocket money."

In the end, Xie Xiaoling accepted it.

Then, Xie Wan took out the red conch she had picked up and showed it to Xie Xiaoling.

Xie Xiaoling held it in her hand, her mouth remained open for a long time, and she kept looking at Xie Wan.

"Fourth Aunt, what's wrong? You don't recognize this conch?"

Xie Xiaoling turned around, took the scale from the wall, and pulled Xie Wan back to the house.

Others didn't understand, Liu Yumei smiled with her hands covering her mouth, "Mom must have thought that there were pearls in that snail, so she took Xiao Wanjie to open it secretly."

In fact, they occasionally find pearls from conch shells, but they are not very big and cannot be sold for much money.

Of course, it is good to be able to open it. Ordinary purchasing stations will buy it from a few cents to a few dollars depending on the size.
