When Jiang Yan woke up, Lu Yunsheng was gone. She stretched comfortably and got up from the bed quickly.
When we were eating, He Hongxiu, Yuan Sufeng and Feng Yingchun had already arrived, and they were accompanied by a few other guys.
She already knew the second and third children in He Hongxiu's family.
Yuan Sufeng has a daughter named Wu Qiuyue, nicknamed Yueyue. She is about three or four years old. She is wearing a small red vest and looks very well-behaved.
Feng Yingchun is a boy named Xu Yuanhang. He is about the same age as Yueyue from Yuan Sufeng's family, and looks chubby.
I heard from the two that the older ones in the family have all gone to military schools, and the younger ones are not yet old enough, so they are brought along by themselves.
Jiang Yan gave each of the four little ones a piece of fruit candy. She quickly finished her meal, grabbed a handful of rice for the chicks, and then took the prepared pliers, net bag and bucket and followed everyone to the beach.
The four little guys were very excited and were very familiar with the route to the beach. It was obvious that this was not their first time here.
Sheng Anning and Sheng Anjun, who were more familiar with Jiang Yan, told her that they had picked up big fish and crabs at the beach before.
However, according to what the two little ones said, the harvest from fishing was not as much as she had imagined.
As we walked through the gap between two mountains, our view suddenly opened up. The vast blue ocean appeared before our eyes. There was a small yellow sand beach on the beach, with rugged black reefs on both sides.
At this time, there were already people on the beach carrying wooden buckets and picking up seafood.
The four little guys cheered and ran towards the beach.
Jiang Yan was shocked by the scene. The water was so blue. Not just blue, but clean and clear blue with a primitive natural beauty.
Seeing that there were many people on the beach, He Hongxiu sighed, "You're here really early," and then she quickly walked over with the wooden bucket.
Feng Yingchun followed closely behind. Yuan Sufeng greeted Jiang Yan and quickly followed.
Jiang Yan trotted to catch up with everyone.
On the beach, everyone skillfully took out small shovels and searched for various hidden seafood on the sand.
Jiang Yan took a quick look and saw that most of the people who came were teenagers, with occasionally one or two young wives.
There is not a single able-bodied laborer.
"Aunt, here you go."
I heard a childish cry beside me. I looked down and saw Sheng An Ning handing me a conch that he had dug.
Gently pinching her little face, Jiang Yan squatted down and said with a smile: "Ningning, keep it for yourself. Auntie can find it herself. Can you teach Auntie how to find it?"
"Um."
Sheng An Ning nodded, put the conch back into his bucket, then pulled Jiang Yan to teach her carefully how to find seafood hidden under the beach through traces.
Jiang Yan also listened carefully and quickly got the hang of it.
After all the busy work, Jiang Yan's wooden barrel had some more harvests, but compared to all the busy work, the amount of seafood in the barrel was not as much as she had imagined.
Nowadays, everyone is short of food, and since there is food to be found on the beach, naturally people come here every day.
As more people pick up things, there will naturally be fewer things on the beach.
Moreover, most seafood has heavy shells and not much edible meat, so people just try it to satisfy their cravings.
It is obviously impossible to expect this to fill your stomach.
Looking at the mantis shrimps in the bucket, the bamboo clams that I had dug out with great effort, and a few big crabs.
Jiang Yan sighed. Ideals are full of hope, but reality is very skinny.
Before, she had thought that in this era there was no pollution, marine resources were abundant, and people did not have to carry seafood home in buckets. Now it seemed that she was overthinking.
The marine creatures are not stupid either, they are just there waiting for them to pick them up.
After taking a look around, Jiang Yan looked towards the black reef next to her, wondering if there might be abalone, oysters or something like that.
Wait for her to walk over and take a look.
There are indeed quite a few oysters, but most of those that can be picked have been picked, leaving only a pile of hard shells clinging to the black rocks, and those that have not been picked are on the steep walls that are difficult to reach.
After picking up a conch and throwing it into the bucket, Jiang Yan stopped picking up seafood.
"Sister Jiang Yan, be careful, the rocks are very slippery. Come back quickly, there is nothing over there."
Seeing Jiang Yan standing on the reef, He Hongxiu hurriedly shouted loudly. Jiang Yan had no experience as it was her first time here, and it would be troublesome if she accidentally fell into the sea.
Hearing He Hongxiu's voice, Jiang Yan replied loudly: "Okay, I'll be right back."
Jiang Yan trotted back after getting off the reef carefully.
He Hongxiu smiled and said, "Is it different from what you thought before? When I first came here, I thought I could pick up a lot of things at the beach."
"However, it's nice to pick up some seafood from time to time to feed the children, but don't expect to fill their stomachs."
"Mom, look, I found a big conch."
Wu Qiuyue's voice came from a distance, and she was holding a conch bigger than an adult's fist.
After praising the little kid, Yuan Sufeng hurried over with the bucket and put the conch into the bucket.
When Yuan Sufeng passed by, Jiang Yan took a look. The harvest in her bucket was not much better than hers. It was not enough for one person, let alone the whole family.
Suddenly, Jiang Yan remembered that she had signed in for a bag of fish bait. The information said that no fish could resist the temptation of the bait, just like humans cannot resist meat.
If it's really as good as the system says, I'll never lack meat to eat again.
After telling He Hongxiu, Jiang Yan walked around the area and found a small protruding puddle on the other side of the reef. The puddle was about one meter wide and led directly to the sea.
Moreover, the sea water is clear and the small stones on the bottom of the water are clearly visible.
This is a great location!
Jiang Yan looked around and saw that there was no one around, so she took out the fish bait from the system warehouse. The bait was packaged in a transparent ziplock bag.
