Chapter 93 Stonefish and Spider Snails



Zheng Gan and the other two spent the entire afternoon running around the county, buying things for the sea-hunting tourist area. Not only aquaculture seedlings, but they also bought a lot of sea-hunting equipment to rent or sell to tourists who would come to the area to catch seafood in the future.

The supplier of aquaculture seedlings has already been contacted. We mainly buy seedlings of large conchs, sea cucumbers and abalone. We spent a lot of money on it. The supplier is a friend of Qiao Zhengdong. He promised to put the seedlings in after the aquaculture area is ready, and he will come to help check on it regularly.

After a busy afternoon, the three of them had a simple dinner in the county, and then rushed back to the village, packed their equipment and prepared to go diving and sea fishing.

"You must be careful down there. The light here is not as good as it is during the day." Qiao Xin said with some concern. She originally did not agree with Zheng Gan and the others going diving and fishing at night, but she could not stand their constant persuasion.

"Don't worry, sister-in-law, I will keep a good eye on my brother down there." Lin Hao put on his equipment and patted his chest to assure.

"Tsk, you're still keeping an eye on me, don't you know who's keeping an eye on who?" Zheng Gan sneered. With a map in hand, is there anyone safer than him? The biggest problem with diving at night is the fear of getting lost. He can easily find Qiao Xin's location with the map.

"Alright, alright, stop talking nonsense. No matter who is looking at whom, be careful when you go down there." Qiao Xin interrupted Zheng Gan who was about to mock him, and opened the live broadcast room.

Zheng Gan gave a thumbs up, then turned over and jumped into the sea. Seeing this, Lin Hao hurriedly followed him.

Qiao Xin's live broadcast room has started, and a large number of viewers quickly poured in. Today is a diving and sea-hunting day, and the number of people watching the live broadcast is much greater than the usual sea-hunting day.

"It's time for the exciting diving and sea catching again."

"That's not true. Diving is much more interesting than fishing and catching seafood."

"Why doesn't the anchor lady have a smile on her face?"

"Nonsense, how could she not worry if the handsome boy went there at night?"

Seeing the worried look, the people in the live broadcast room all expressed their opinions.

On the other side, at the Dongqiang aquatic product purchasing point in Xiaohai Village, Xiao Yu was taking Jiang Feng to watch the live broadcast. This was also a compulsory course for Xiao Yu every day. As long as the live broadcast started, he would participate in it as soon as possible so that he could know the receipt status of Zheng Gan and others at any time.

"Brother Yu, is this how my brother and the others work every day?" Jiang Feng asked in disbelief. He had never been to the sea before, so he was shocked to see Zheng Gan and the others diving to look for seafood.

"That's right. Brother Gan and Brother Hao work very hard and are lucky too. They always gain a lot. I really envy you that you can go out with them in the future." Xiao Yu was very envious when he said this. He also wanted to go, but it would be impossible without someone to take him.

Jiang Feng stared at the scenes in the live broadcast room, trying to remember every detail in his mind, hoping that he could help Zheng Gan after he learned it in the future.

The scene switched to the sea. The two had already reached the bottom of the sea. Zheng Gan found through the map that there were indeed quite a few sea creatures at night. Many of the red dots on the map were motionless, and it was obvious that they were easy to catch.

Before he could give directions, Lin Hao sent out a signal first, then swam over carefully and grabbed a "stone" as quickly as possible.

Zheng Gan: “???”

Lin Hao ignored Zheng Gan's puzzled look and put the struggling "stone" into the net bag.

It turned out to be a stonefish. Zheng Gan saw it clearly and quickly gave Lin Hao a thumbs up. This is a good thing.

The stonefish, scientifically known as the brown scorpionfish (Scorpaenoptera: Scorpaenoptera), is also known as the stone dogfish. Its prominent eyes and jaw, and jagged dorsal fin give it an unsightly appearance, resembling a jagged rock. Its dorsal fin is covered in highly venomous spines, earning it the nickname "poisonous fish," one of the world's ten most poisonous fish.

However, stonefish is expensive, especially wild stonefish, which are rare. It is no problem to sell one pound for three or four hundred yuan. Don't be fooled by its ugly appearance, it is really delicious. However, when catching it, you must be careful of the spines on its dorsal fin, which are highly poisonous.

This stonefish is estimated to weigh more than two kilograms, almost three kilograms, and I got it for less than a thousand yuan.

There were indeed more things in the sea at night, and a small octopus swam in front of Zheng Gan, but it was too cheap, so he was too lazy to take action.

On this first trip, the things I picked up were all sorts of random, including sea cucumbers, abalone, stonefish, and sea urchins. The value was okay, but a bit messy, which was different from before.

After the two climbed onto the boat, Qiao Xin breathed a sigh of relief. She had been very worried all this time and even interacted less with the audience in the live broadcast room.

"Alas, the harvest this time is not as good as the previous ones." Zheng Gan looked disappointed.

Lin Hao nodded in agreement. Although the seafood at night was easier to get, its value was not as much as before.

"I really want to strangle them both to death. Look at what they're saying. Their things aren't as valuable as they used to be."

"Exactly, that cocky look. Does the anchor lady still have that substitute business now?"

"Yes, yes, yes, the proxy betting business is open. If you don't want to play, I'll give you a big rocket. Just tell me the address and I'll go play myself."

"6, you upstairs must have been the reincarnation of an abacus in your previous life. You're beating so loudly that I can hear it even when I'm abroad."

The dissatisfied expressions of Zheng Gan and Lin Hao made the audience in the live broadcast room grit their teeth in anger. They were so ungrateful.

During the break, they also interacted with the audience in the live broadcast room. When the break was over, they couldn't wait to go into the water again, hoping to find something good to make up for the loss of the first time.

The two were looking for something downstairs, and the audience in the live broadcast room kept typing the word "empty hand" in unison, hoping that the two of them would return empty-handed.

But when Zheng Gan found a spider snail on a piece of coral, the noise turned into cursing.

Because the price of spider snails has been rising in the past two years, good quality spider snails can be sold for more than two hundred yuan per kilogram in the market. It is not because they taste good, but mainly because the shells are valuable and very beautiful. There is even a group of people who specialize in collecting snail shells.

Zheng Gan also knew that everyone in the live broadcast room hoped that he would come up empty-handed, so when he picked up the spider snail, he even started to provoke the audience in the live broadcast room.

This action directly angered everyone. Many big guys sent rockets and forced Qiao Xin to start the substitute mode, saying that Zheng Gan must pay a heavy price.

This was an unexpected surprise. In just a short period of time, more than 20 big rockets were collected, each worth one thousand yuan. Qiao Xin immediately smiled and promised that when Zheng Gan came up, she would definitely perform the audience's proxy service.
