On the way back, Bai Yu rode his electric bike with Wang Hai on the back.
Bai Yu's plastic bucket was placed on the footrest, while Wang Hai's plastic bucket had to be carried in his hand. Fortunately, it wasn't particularly heavy, so it wasn't too difficult for Wang Hai to lift it.
When the two brothers arrived at the gate of Ocean University, Bai Yu looked at the gate but did not enter. Instead, he went straight to the food street next to it, much like Yu the Great passing by his home three times without entering.
Bai Yu finally stopped her electric scooter when she arrived at the entrance of Liu's food stall.
The reason for choosing Liu's Food Stall was that Bai Yu had only eaten there before, and had a fairly good impression of Liu and his staff.
Whether it's the taste of the food, the price, or the ingredients, Liu Ji Food Stall is very honest and reliable. The owner is also very nice and welcoming.
Upon arriving at Liu's Food Stall, Bai Yu parked her electric scooter and headed straight for the kitchen.
The owner of Liu's Food Stall is also the chef. All the other staff, whether they are waiters or cashiers, are the owner's family or relatives.
If Bai Yu wants to sell his catch to Liu Ji, he has to talk to the boss first. If the boss doesn't agree, it's no use talking to anyone else.
"Boss, do you serve sea cucumber sashimi here?"
Upon seeing Liu Ji's owner, Bai Yu didn't immediately ask if he wanted seafood. Instead, he inquired about sea cucumber sashimi.
This was mainly because the dish wasn't on Liu's menu, and he wasn't sure if the other party could make it.
"Sea cucumber sashimi? That's easy. As long as the sea cucumber is fresh enough and cleaned properly, I have all the seasonings and other ingredients."
However, the sea cucumbers are sold out for today. If you want to eat them, you'll have to wait until tomorrow, and you'll have to come early. Sea cucumbers sell out very quickly; if you come late, you won't get any.
When Bai Yu asked a question, the shop owner didn't even turn his head before replying with a single sentence, continuing to stir-fry the dishes in the pot without stopping his wok-tossing motion.
"Boss, I brought my own sea cucumber. Could you please make me a sea cucumber sashimi dish and a braised sea cucumber dish?"
"Also, boss, do you buy seafood here? I have quite a lot of sea cucumbers and other seafood, all freshly caught this afternoon while beachcombing. They're all alive and well. Would you like to take a look?"
After asking about the sea cucumbers, Bai Yu then inquired about the main purpose of their trip.
Hearing this, the owner of Liu's restaurant finally turned around and looked at Bai Yu, then plated the food in the pot and said, "Let's take a look."
Seeing this, Bai Yu immediately went outside to call Wang Hai, and together they carried their catch back inside.
"Boss, look at these, they were just caught this afternoon. These sea cucumbers are quite plump, aren't they? And look at these razor clams and scallops, they're all pretty good sizes too."
"I'm not bragging, but my brother and I have principles when it comes to beachcombing. No matter what kind of seafood it is, if it's too small, we don't take it. The seafood we keep is always top-notch in size."
Back in the kitchen, Bai Yu carried a plastic bucket and approached Boss Liu, then launched into a long explanation of his catch.
"Hmm, they are indeed quite large, but you've described so much, why haven't you mentioned these mudskippers at all? I think these mudskippers are quite large too."
Compared to the sea cucumbers and scallops that Bai Yu introduced, Boss Liu immediately took a liking to the mudskippers in the bucket, which are mudskippers.
It has to be said that Boss Liu is indeed a chef. He could tell at a glance which kind of catch Bai Yu and his team had the best, and he immediately set his sights on the most valuable mudskipper.
"Um, this mudskipper... I was planning to keep it for myself, not sell it, so I didn't mention it..."
"Eat them yourselves? There must be at least two pounds of mudskippers. Can the two of you finish them? If you ask me, you should sell them to me. I'll keep four big ones for you and make you a soup. Then I'll take the rest of the fish you catch. What do you think?"
Listening to what Boss Liu said, Bai Yu fell into deep thought.
Bai Yu originally planned to invite Hu Tao, Li Shuang, and others out for dinner, since the mudskipper was not easy to obtain and he wanted them to try it.
According to Boss Liu, the only things they had caught up with that day were sea cucumbers and mudskippers; everything else was too common, and he had his own sourcing channels.
After much deliberation, Bai Yu decided to follow Boss Liu's advice and sell the mudskippers to them, keeping only four for themselves to try.
Finally, after some negotiation between Bai Yu and Boss Liu, he sold his nearly twenty kilograms of seafood for a total of about a thousand yuan.
In addition, Mr. Liu also gifted Baiyu four dishes: sea cucumber sashimi, braised sea cucumber, mudskipper soup, and a vegetable dish.
Four dishes were enough for Bai Yu and Wang Hai. Bai Yu didn't touch the sea cucumber sashimi at all, she really couldn't accept it. However, the braised sea cucumber was pretty good and quite delicious.
Another dish was mudskipper soup. Since the mudskippers were all fresh, the soup tasted incredibly delicious, and Bai Yu ate two large bowls in one go.
After the two brothers finished eating and drinking and returned to their dormitory, Li Shuang and Lu Sheng were still playing games in the dormitory.
I don’t know if it was because the senior year of high school was too stressful, but now that they’re in college, whenever they have time, they get together to play games. Sometimes they’ll invite Bai Yu and Wang Hai, and the four of them will play together in a four-player squad.
That's right, Li Shuang and Lu Sheng also installed computers in their dorm room, and they had the same configuration as Bai Yu and Lu Sheng, mainly for coordination.
"Hey, you two are back! Have you had dinner yet? Want to play a couple of rounds?"
Upon seeing Bai Yu and Wang Hai return to the dormitory, Li Shuang's first questions, besides asking if they had eaten, were whether they wanted to play games.
Bai Yu was extremely fortunate to have these two brothers, because judging from their college entrance examination scores, being able to get into Shanghai University definitely made them top students.
However, besides being academic high-achievers, these two brothers are also internet addicts, and even severely so.
If they have nothing to do, they can stay in the dormitory forever, and the outside world has nothing to do with them.
"You two have already eaten. How long have you been playing games? Did you order takeout again tonight? You two can't keep going like this. Playing games and eating takeout in the dorm every day, can your bodies handle it?"
Okay, for your health's sake, starting tomorrow you two will run with me and Ahai. Military training just ended, so you both still have some running experience, it won't be too difficult."
Bai Yu looked at the takeout boxes on Li Shuang and Lu Sheng's table and gave them a suggestion while turning on his computer.
Bai Yu was quite satisfied with Li Shuang and Lu Sheng. Although they were both internet addicts, at least they didn't smoke, which was a great advantage for Bai Yu and Wang Hai.
"Stop talking nonsense and get back on your account. We can talk about tomorrow's issues tomorrow. Lu Sheng and I have been kneeling all afternoon, and I've realized that we really can't win without you guys."
No, it's not just the two of you. It's that without Hai Zi, we really can't win. With or without Bai Yu, the difference isn't that significant.
Li Shuang didn't take Bai Yu's talk about running to heart. Right now, all he wanted was to win. He would do anything to win.
"Here we are, just like before. Ah Hai and I will take the lower path, you two can do whatever you want, just pull us along."
As Bai Yu and Wang Hai logged into the game, the four of them in the dormitory began their enjoyable four-player game life.
Playing video games is undoubtedly a fun activity, especially when you play with a few close friends. Of course, the key is not to get too caught up in winning or losing.
While playing the game, Li Shuang asked Bai Yu and his companion about their beachcombing harvest that day. Although they had never gone beachcombing before, they knew that it could make money.
After learning that the two of them had earned more than a thousand yuan in just one afternoon, they immediately looked at Bai Yu and his companion with envy.
Even though they were all the same age, students at Ocean University, and roommates, Bai Yu and Wang Hai were ahead of them.
Putting everything else aside, the fact that they earned more than a thousand yuan in just one afternoon was enough to make Li Shuang and Lu Sheng extremely envious.
With this money, Bai Yu and Wang Hai can now live comfortably on their own. Compared to Li Shuang and Lu Sheng, the gap between them is quite significant.
"Brother Yu, is beachcombing really that profitable? You can earn over a thousand in just one afternoon? If that keeps up, wouldn't you be able to earn thirty or forty thousand a month? That's forty or fifty thousand a year?"
"My goodness! If that's the case, why bother going to school? We might as well just go beachcombing! We could easily earn over a million yuan in four years of university!"
After listening to Bai Yu's account of his beachcombing harvest, Li Shuang realized for the first time how easy it was to make money.
You can earn over a thousand dollars in just one afternoon by digging on the beach. It couldn't be easier!
Bai Yu couldn't help but roll her eyes at Li Shuang's logic.
"Who told you that you can earn 30,000 to 40,000 yuan a month by beachcombing? If we follow your calculation method, then every fisherman living by the sea would be a millionaire or even a multi-millionaire."
This isn't as easy as you think. Beachcombing is full of uncertainties. If you're lucky, you can earn hundreds or thousands of dollars a day, but if you're unlucky, it's normal to not earn any money for several days in a row.
Take today for example. The reason why Ah Hai and I were able to make money was because we were lucky. We caught a lot of mudskippers and sea cucumbers while beachcombing, and these two items are expensive.
Aside from those two things, Ah Hai and I didn't actually earn much money today.
"That's right. Sea cucumbers are not only expensive, but they also taste delicious, especially sea cucumber sashimi. They have a satisfying crunch, which is really good."
Seeing that Li Shuang's ideas were getting more and more out of control, Bai Yu had no choice but to quickly speak up and pull him back, lest he think that beachcombing was really profitable. If Li Shuang really gave up his studies to go beachcombing, then there would be a lot of trouble.
"Yeah, what Brother Yu said makes sense. Shuangzi, if you really think beachcombing is profitable, then next time Brother Yu and the others go, let's go and experience it together."
"Okay, Brother Yu, take us with you next time you go beachcombing."
"Sure, I called you guys this afternoon, but you just didn't want to go. There's a high tide tomorrow, so I'll take you there to experience it and see how much money you can actually make from beachcombing."
After communication among Bai Yu and his three companions, they reached an agreement.
Every morning, Li Shuang and Lu Sheng would first go for a run with Bai Yu and the other person, then go to the nearby fishing tackle shops to buy some equipment, and in the afternoon they would go beachcombing.
There is a prerequisite for this, which is the morning run. According to Bai Yu, every person who goes beachcombing must have good physical strength. If they don't have good physical strength, then they are not a qualified beachcomber.
Actually, Bai Yu made this up. Her purpose was to get Li Shuang and Lu Sheng to run with them, because it's more fun to run with more people.
After playing four or five games, Bai Yu stopped playing with them. Compared to the three who had nothing to do, Bai Yu had something important to do: editing videos.
