Upon seeing this, He Xuebin immediately asked Lu Chuanbei, "Xiao Lu, what are you doing with these?"
"Oh, we caught a net of pearl oysters in the back, and I'm going to go and take a look at them." As he spoke, Lu Chuanbei casually asked them, "Brother He, Director Xu, do you want to come with us?"
"Of course I'm going!" He Xuebin stood up immediately.
Xu Qi said directly: "Give me a few more daggers, and I'll help you open the pearl shells."
As they said that, the two of them quickly put away their fishing rods and ran towards the stern of the boat with Lu Chuanbei.
When Xu Qi saw the pile of pearl oysters still tied up in the fishing net on the deck, he immediately rushed over and said, "Wow, they really are pearl oysters, and they're so big. How many pearls can we get from them?"
Look at the tone of these words, it's exactly the same as Xu Anjia's just now.
He Xuebin even pulled the fishing net open, picked up a pearl oyster on the top and used it as a cushion: "Sure, it's quite heavy."
"Come, let's each open one and take a look." As he said that, Lu Chuanbei handed a pair of gloves to He Xuebin and Xu Qi respectively.
Lu Chuanbei and several others put on work gloves and took up daggers. They picked up a few pearl shells from the pile and started opening fire on the spot.
"Crack, crack"
With a few crisp sounds, the originally tightly closed pearl oyster was forcefully opened by the dagger, revealing the soft shell meat and the pearl wrapped inside.
Song Tiantian, Xiangfangnan and other little ones looked at them expectantly.
"Dad, how about pearls?"
"Yes, lots of pearls." He Xuebin looked at the opened pearl oyster and couldn't help but feel excited: "Look, there are so many pearls in one pearl oyster."
"Wow~ So many pearls."
"Let me count." Xu Anjia hurried forward and began to count the pearls in the oyster: "One, two, three... fifteen. There are fifteen pearls in the pearl oyster that uncle opened!"
Xu Qi looked at the little girl's surprised expression and immediately started showing off: "I have fifteen or sixteen pearls here, and there are also a pair of pink and purple ones, about the size of a thumb."
"Let me see." Xu Anjia hurried over, and was immediately attracted by the pair of pink and purple pearls.
The round and flawless pink-purple pearl is still half-wrapped in the shellfish flesh, but the exposed corner can make people see how dazzling the pearl will be if it is fully taken out.
"After seeing this, I finally understand why those women like to buy pearl jewelry so much." He Xuebin suddenly sighed.
"Yes, it is indeed very beautiful." Lu Chuanbei had to admit that the texture and luster of pearls are worthy of being a natural gem that has been popular throughout the ages.
The pearl oysters opened by Lu Chuanbei are equally eye-catching, and each one is very white and round, full of elegant and beautiful temperament.
Just by seeing these pearls, Lu Chuanbei had the urge to string them all into a necklace and give it to Song Jiaqi.
There were still a lot of pearl shells left, so after Lu Chuanbei and the others took a look at the opened pearl shells, they handed them to the little guys nearby and asked them to sit in front of the stainless steel basin and take out the opened pearls.
Ding Ding Dong Dong
The sound of pearls, big and small, falling on the jade plate is crisp and moving. In the sunlight, the pearls flash with extremely attractive light, which makes them look particularly charming and eye-catching.
What beautiful pearls...
[White, pinkish white, pinkish purple, light gold, silver. This is the first time I know that pearls come in so many colors.]
[After seeing these pearls, I suddenly have the urge to buy a pearl necklace]
[Me too. I always thought pearl necklaces were old-fashioned, but now that I see these pearls, I can't take my eyes off them!]
Can I just say I’ve already opened Taobao and JD.com and searched for pearl jewelry?
When many netizens were impressed by the pearls opened by Lu Chuanbei and his team, the system, which had been silent all the time, looked at the pearl shells that were opened one by one, and suddenly said with some sigh: Tiantian, it is such a waste for you to open the pearl shells like this.
Song Tiantian blinked: "What's wrong? Is there anything wrong with opening pearl shells like this?"
System: Waste
Song Tiantian was puzzled: What a waste!
The system did not speak, but sent a video to Song Tiantian.
Song Tiantian tilted her head and turned on the video.
With this sight, the door to a new world opened before Song Tiantian's eyes.
The pearl diver in the video did not use a dagger to pry open the pearl oysters to take out the pearls after catching them at sea.
Instead, take the pearl oysters and knock on their tail ends a few times. After a while, the pearl oysters that were originally tightly closed will half open their shells and spit out the pearls in their bodies.
After making sure that the pearl oyster will not produce pearls anymore, the pearl diver will release the pearl oyster back into the sea, allowing it to continue to reproduce and produce pearls in the ocean until it is discovered by the next pearl diver and the pearls are taken out.
Upon seeing this, Song Tiantian immediately understood why the system said they were wasting money.
Song Tiantian looked at Lu Chuanbei and the others who had already taken a small pile of pearl shells, and she suddenly felt unwell.
"Dad, wait a minute." Song Tiantian quickly put down the pearls in her hand and shouted to Lu Chuanbei and the others.
Lu Chuanbei looked at Song Tiantian: "What's wrong?"
"I just remembered a technique my grandpa taught me to pick pearls." Song Tiantian's eyes turned and she immediately found someone to take the blame.
When Lu Chuanbei saw Song Tiantian's eyes rolling around, he knew that this girl must have learned something from the system again and was using Grandpa Song to take the blame.
But since he loved his own daughter, Lu Chuanbei covered up for the little girl without thinking: "Are you saying that those messy techniques your grandpa taught you last time can be used to extract pearls?"
"Yeah, grandpa said that technique can make the pearl oyster spit out the pearls inside without using a knife."
Upon hearing this, He Xuebin, who was about to pry open a pearl oyster, stopped immediately and asked, "Can you take out the pearl without a knife?"
"right."
"Is there such a magical method?"
"Really." Song Tiantian nodded confidently, and quickly asked the system to call up the video of the pearl-picking hand gestures again, and began to learn it on the spot.
Is this true? Can you take pearls out without a knife?
[I know there's a way to pry a pearl oyster open a tiny crack, then use a special tool to take the pearls out. Is the method Tiantian described similar to this?]
"I think I've heard of that, but that requires a knife and some tools, right? So it seems like you can actually remove pearls without a knife."
[I think it's possible. After all, the Song family pharmacy has been passed down for so long, so it's possible that they have some special techniques.]
[Yes, the ancients used to be able to fly over rooftops and walls and had internal strength. Tiantian just used a special technique to get the pearl. That's a piece of cake!]
[Are you serious? I might not believe someone else, but when Tiantian says it, I don't know why I think she's capable.]
[Uh, oh, oh, oh… This is probably all experience gained from being slapped in the face too many times.]
[Wait, Tiantian didn't say take it out, but spit it out?]
"This must have been a slip of the tongue. Besides, how could a pearl oyster spit out pearls? If that were true, it wouldn't have turned the sand into pearls. It could have just spit them out."
While netizens were constantly discussing in the live broadcast room, Song Tiantian had already picked up a pearl oyster from the fishing net.
She raised her index finger and tapped the bulge at the end of the pearl shell several times in an orderly manner.
Not long after she knocked, the pearl oyster, which was originally tightly closed, opened slightly under everyone's attention, revealing a half-gap.
Song Tiantian felt the pearl oyster in her hand tremble slightly a few times, and a stream of mucus flowed out from the slightly opened shell. In this mucus, pink and golden pearls gradually fell out...
When they saw this, netizens who originally thought Song Tiantian had made a slip of the tongue were shocked.
[You really vomited it out, didn't you?]
[Oh my god, I was wrong about Tiantian. She really didn't make any mistakes?]
"How is that possible? These pearl oysters usually hold their shells tightly. Tiantian just tapped them a few times, and this pearl oyster opened its mouth and spit out all the pearls inside? This is simply too outrageous, isn't it?"
[I don't know if it's outrageous or not, but this scene is really amazing. I just tapped the back of the pearl oyster a few times, and it spit out the pearls. How did it happen?]
[I quickly called my father, who has been raising clams for years, to come over and see it. He also exclaimed that it was amazing...]
[This is eye-opening. This technique seems so simple, how could it make the pearl oyster speak...]
[However, it would be great if this method could be shared. This way, pearl collectors would no longer need to pry open the pearl oysters and violently extract the pearls. Instead, they could use this method, which does not harm the oysters, to allow them to spit out the pearls themselves. The oysters that have spit out the pearls can then be returned to the sea to continue growing.]
[What the above person said is correct. With this method, we no longer have to worry about the pearl oysters in the ocean disappearing due to over-exploitation.]
He Xuebin was stunned by the scene before him. He looked at the pearls flowing out of the pearl oyster, then glanced at the pearl oyster they had just pried open, and hurriedly shouted to Song Tiantian, "Tiantian, can we learn this technique?"
"Sure." Song Tiantian announced this method in order to avoid this kind of waste from happening again.
Moreover, this technique is easy to learn. Even people who cannot mobilize mental power can use this technique to make pearl oysters spit out pearls.
Because of this, the profession of pearl diver is also the most popular profession among those who are unable to draw on their spiritual power...
