Bai Yu was simply curious about this coconut crab; he didn't have any other thoughts about it.
I won't eat it, and I won't raise it either. After looking at it, I released it.
What Bai Yu didn't expect was that he had wandered around the bushes during the day, but he hadn't seen a single coconut crab.
But as night fell, they took a few steps through the bushes and looked down at the coconut tree, where they saw a dark creature on the tree – a coconut crab.
Everyone says that the number of coconut crabs is already very small, otherwise they wouldn't be protected.
However, after wandering around the island, Bai Yu and his companions discovered quite a few coconut crabs, at least several dozen.
As they continued deeper into the area, they soon came to the front of a stream, the same stream where Bai Yu and his friends had been collecting seafood during the day.
As Bai Yu walked along, he noticed something was amiss; there seemed to be an unusual amount of seafood on this small island.
Many viewers in the live stream initially thought Bai Yu had simply found a spot to pose for photos, and that the seafood on the ground was something she had placed there herself.
However, the seafood they encountered seemed a bit too lively, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Along the way, Bai Yu found at least ten blue crabs in the bushes where there was no water, but they all ran away as soon as a light was shone on them.
Bai Yu hadn't expected this; the crabs were in places without water, so how could they still appear?
Bai Yu didn't try to catch the crabs. There was nothing he could do; these creatures had eight legs and ran too fast for Bai Yu and his companions to catch.
As they arrived at the stream, they shone their overhead lights into the water, and the entire stream seemed to boil.
It seems that no humans have visited this small island for a long time, especially at night, when no one comes with a headlamp.
Under the illumination of the headlamp, the creatures in the stream couldn't stand it any longer, and all sorts of small fish and shrimp began to flee.
"Let me make it clear beforehand that I am really on a small island in the South China Sea right now, and it's an uninhabited island. This isn't a staged photo. If you don't believe me, I can tell you the coordinates."
Not far out to sea, our yacht is floating. When we came during the day, there was also a lot of seafood in this stream, just not as much as before.
Bai Yu felt compelled to explain what had just happened, lest others misunderstand and think they had staged the scene.
Of course, Bai Yu only explained it once; whether the fans in the live stream believed it or not was not their concern.
Then Bai Yu took a headlamp and strolled along the stream. The light shone on the stream, revealing the bottom of the water with an unobstructed view.
A short while later, Bai Yu found a large conch in the water and picked it up.
"Brothers, this stream is naturally formed; it runs through the entire island, dividing it in two."
This stream is a saltwater stream, and the water is all seawater. All kinds of seafood in it swim or crawl into the rocky beach by the sea and survive in this stream.
When we first arrived at this island this afternoon, we really found some great things. That's why I'm planning to do a live stream and take the guys to go beachcombing.
As you can see from the beach, the bonfire is already lit, and we're going to catch some seafood to make a barbecue later.
Don't blame me, brothers, for not warning you! If you don't have any snacks on hand, or if you're a little hungry, buy some snacks or order takeout. Don't wait until we start eating and then you accuse me of posting late-night food porn!
Bai Yu rolled up her trouser legs while chatting with her fans in the live stream.
As for the number of viewers in the live stream, Bai Yu wasn't entirely sure, but he knew it had exceeded 100,000.
After making all the preparations, Bai Yu went straight into the stream in her sandals to start collecting seafood.
Forget about catching those small fish and shrimp in the stream; they're too fast to escape, and Bai Yu can't catch them easily.
Bai Yu focused his attention on seafood that doesn't move very fast, such as lobsters, crabs, scallops, sea cucumbers, and abalone.
Soon, Bai Yu made a new discovery. While turning over a rock, he found a blue crab underneath, with a clam in its claws, eating.
"Hey, did you disturb the crabs' meal? But I haven't eaten yet, why are you eating now?"
"Now look what's happened. I need your help. Come back with me tonight and be my food."
As Bai Yu muttered to himself, he swiftly grabbed the crab-catching claws and snapped them down on the creature.
Before the creature could even react, it had already left the stream, risen into the air, and then entered the plastic bucket.
This set of movements is incredibly smooth. After all, Bai Yu started out by beachcombing. Even though he's successful now, he still goes to the beach to beachcomb whenever he has free time.
In this respect, his skills have not declined, and he has developed muscle memory for some of the operations.
With the first blue crab in the bucket, the rest of the beachcombing went much more smoothly.
There are six people in total, but only five of them are actually going beachcombing. Li Xue is unable to go beachcombing; she's livestreaming on her phone for Bai Yu.
However, Li Xue wasn't just live-streaming Bai Yu; she was filming all five people present. Whenever someone made a catch, she would run over with her phone and film the freshly cooked seafood.
The same goes for the questions from netizens; whoever has time can answer them, since they are all simple questions anyway.
In less than an hour, Bai Yu and his five companions caught two sea fish, thirty crabs, eight small lobsters, and countless scallops and conches.
The viewers in the live stream were extremely envious and quickly asked Bai Yu and his companions about their current location and the name of the island.
How could they possibly know the name of the island? As mentioned before, it's an uninhabited island; they can only provide the coordinates.
However, after hearing the coordinates Bai Yu mentioned, the viewers in the live stream immediately lost interest; it was too far and not worth it.
While Bai Yu and his group of five caught a considerable amount of seafood, as netizens have learned, the amount of seafood available during the day is not large. To catch more seafood, they would have to wait until night to go beachcombing.
However, this island is located very far from the coastline. If you come at night, you can only stay on the island overnight, since it is not safe to go back at night.
Whether the seafood caught on this small island can cover the cost of fuel is another matter. Even if it does, it's at most enough to cover labor costs.
So overall, it's not very cost-effective to come to this island by boat, whether it's a large or medium-sized ship or a small fishing boat.
After a simple hour of fishing, they prepared to head back; this food was enough for their dinner that night.
As for making money, there's no rush for now. After all, they're going to stay on this island for two days. Even if they're going to make money by beachcombing, that'll have to wait until tomorrow night.
They can catch more seafood tomorrow night, and then transfer it to the yacht to keep it alive after dawn.
Afterwards, Bai Yu and his six companions each carried a plastic bucket filled with various kinds of seafood and returned to the beach.
Lu Sheng and Zhang Yuxin were already waiting on the beach. Before Bai Yu and the others even came over, they could already smell the barbecue aroma in the air.
When Bai Yu and the others arrived on the island, each of them carried a large backpack, which contained not only tents but also supplies for the eight of them for two days.
Although there's no lamb leg, there are still some skewers available, along with some vegetables. Just wash them and you can skewer them and start grilling.
"Brother Yu, you're finally back! If you hadn't come back, Yuxin and I wouldn't have waited for you. We were starving."
When Lu Sheng saw Bai Yu and the others return, he immediately started complaining.
There's nothing we can do. It's already past eight or nine o'clock, and these people haven't had dinner yet. They're starving.
"You've worked so hard, Ah Sheng. I'll grill you a big lobster later to reward you properly."
"Come on, everyone, let's get to work. We've already washed all this seafood. Although we used seawater, it's absolutely clean. We don't even need to add salt; just start grilling!"
"Let's leave the barbecue to Ah Sheng. Ke Ke and I will cook some instant noodles for everyone, and we can eat them while we have the barbecue, how about that?"
"Okay, cook more. Ah Hai and I will set up a stove for you and get the fire going."
......
Soon, Bai Yu and the others began to divide up the tasks and get busy.
As for the live stream room, it was set up by a phone stand, filming Bai Yu and the others working from a distance.
