Qiao Xin is Qiao Xin. She can analyze the situation at that time just by looking at the environment of the island.
"Let's go and first check out the abalone gathering place we found last time." Zheng Gan took the lead and walked in front, while keeping an eye on the map to see if there were any valuable products around.
"Sure enough, you guys caught all the abalone last time." Qiao Xin teased as she looked at the reef area in front of her.
Zheng Gan and Lin Hao were also a little embarrassed. Last time, they had indeed packed up everything they could pick up from the surrounding area and took away nothing.
"But there are so many spicy snails here." Qiao Xin squatted down and lifted a stone and found a spicy snail nest.
Don't look down on spicy snails. Only Zheng Gan and Lin Hao, two such people, have high standards now. These spicy snails are considered to be good seafood. If people who don't go to the sea often come across them, they will probably be very happy.
"Let's pick up some and go. I can't come here for nothing." Lin Hao didn't want to go back empty-handed. "If I pick up a thousand kilograms, I can sell it for more than ten thousand yuan."
"How much? A thousand pounds?" Zheng Gan's voice was distorted. "If we pick up a thousand pounds, the three of us will die of exhaustion on this island."
Qiao Xin and Lin Hao didn't care about Zheng Gan's feelings at all. They ignored him and just lowered their heads to pick up the spicy snails.
"Okay, okay, you guys pick up the trash here now, and I'll go take a look over there. If there's nothing there, I'll come back to pick up the trash." Zheng Gan had no choice but to compromise, but he still had to go and take a look first.
Zheng Gan continued to move forward with his sea-hunting equipment. All he encountered along the way were spicy snails and a few large conches, and he didn't get anything.
"It's really strange. Why has my luck been so bad these past two days? It seems like God is not giving me any food." Zheng Gan muttered to express his dissatisfaction.
"Huh? There's a cluster of big red dots ahead."
Zheng Gan instantly became alert and quickly came to the red dot area.
"This...could this be that thing?" Zheng Gan was cheered up by the thing that appeared in front of him. He didn't expect that another good thing would appear this time.
"Calling, calling, bosses, go three hundred meters west. We have discovered a rare species. Please come for support." Zheng Gan's voice came from the walkie-talkies in the pockets of Qiao Xin and Lin Hao who were picking spicy snails.
"Come on, sister-in-law, let's go quickly. My brother must have found something good again." Lin Hao didn't care about the spicy snails anymore. He picked up the things and started running.
Qiao Xin didn't expect that Zheng Gan had made another gain, and followed Lin Hao.
The two of them quickly came to Zheng Gan's side and saw Zheng Gan pointing at the reef with a proud look on his face and asking them to look at it.
"Is this a gooseneck barnacle?" Qiao Xin squatted down and looked at it carefully, then spoke.
"Yes, Sister Xin is really capable." Zheng Gan gave a thumbs up and flattered her.
Lin Hao also squatted down and asked with some confusion, "Gooseneck barnacles? Isn't it just sea Buddha's hand? What's so good about this thing? When I was a kid, I threw it on the ground and no one picked it up. It's just junk."
"What a piece of junk." Zheng Gan said unhappily, "I can sell this junk for 200 yuan per pound without any problem."
"Two hundred yuan?" Lin Hao exclaimed. "Who's crazy? Spending two hundred yuan on this is more than the price of a sea cucumber."
"Sister Xin, please give him some scientific knowledge." Zheng Gan said that he was very tired.
Qiao Xin nodded and said, "This is called a gooseneck barnacle, scientifically known as Myoga, which is what we usually call sea Buddha's hand or Buddha's hand snail."
"In recent years, due to influence from abroad, gooseneck barnacles have become rapidly popular, known as a delicacy from hell. Their meat can also be used as medicine, tonifying the spleen and stomach, promoting diuresis and reducing swelling. It's mainly used to treat spleen and stomach weakness, edema, and other symptoms. The price has been rising steadily in recent years."
"The two hundred yuan that Gan Ge mentioned is the price for ordinary quality. If the quality is good, the price can be much higher."
Thanks to Sister Qiao Xin for the popular science.
"I don't understand this world anymore. I never thought this thing could be so valuable." Lin Hao sighed.
Zheng Gan was speechless, and Lin Hao sighed.
"Shut up! There are a lot of sea cucumbers around here. Go pick up a thousand pounds of them. That's worth two hundred thousand."
When Lin Hao heard the number of two hundred thousand, he cried out in surprise and immediately took out his tools and started working.
"Be careful, the rocks here are very slippery, so be sure to watch your step." Qiao Xin warned, "And if the tide comes in, come back quickly."
