After breakfast, Bai Yu took his phone and patted Li Xue as they walked towards the beach.
"Brothers, we've finished breakfast, now it's time to get down to business."
As you all probably know, our budget for this round-the-world trip has been limited since the start, so we need to earn some money now.
Judging from the beachcombing on this small island last night, it's clear that this uninhabited island is usually deserted, so the catch must be quite good.
Bai Yu followed behind Li Xue, holding a phone in one hand and a plastic bucket in the other, chatting with fans in the live stream as they walked.
"Why did the streamer change? Is my status in the family not good enough? What do you know? My wife and I are equal. There is no such thing as one being superior to the other."
Last night she was live-streaming to me on her phone, so what's wrong with me live-streaming to her for a bit today? Is there a problem?
The people who're feeling envious right now are probably all single. You single guys wouldn't understand. If you want to understand how I feel right now, you'd better find a girlfriend first.
Bai Yu didn't care about the ridicule from netizens.
What others say is their business, and the relationship between Bai Yu and Li Xue is their own affair.
They soon arrived at a rocky beach. It was a better place to go beachcombing than on a sandy beach.
"Xue'er, hurry, hurry, keep up! I saw a nest of basil snails, let's go dig them up!"
As soon as they arrived at the rocky beach, Bai Yu walked in front of Li Xue, pointed to a rock on the side, and then led the way.
The basil that Bai Yu mentioned was on a reef not far in front of them. They walked over in a few steps and came to the nest of basil.
"Brother Xiaobai, you have really sharp eyes! These goby snails were already growing under the rocks, but they still didn't escape your eyes!"
"Absolutely. With 2.0 vision in both eyes, everything is very clear."
Here, take this small pair of handcuffs. Try to pry them off yourself.
After Bai Yu finished speaking, he gave Li Xue a small pair of handcuffs and asked her to use them to pry open the Buddha's Hand snails.
These barnacles, also known as stag snails, are parasitic on reefs. They grow very firmly, and it takes some effort to remove them.
However, this was not something Bai Yu needed to consider. Today, Bai Yu was just a cameraman, and the beachcombing was left to Li Xue. How to do it was all Li Xue's business.
Bai Yu then stood aside with her phone taking pictures, leaving Li Xue to do her own thing.
There weren't many of these goby snails in this nest, and they were all caught in no time.
Although the goose barnacles are gone, there are other finds on this rocky beach.
"Xue'er, conch, big conch, there's a conch right next to your feet, you almost stepped on it."
"Hey, buy one get one free! There's even an abalone stuck to the rock next to this guy. Not bad, not bad at all."
"Brother Xiaobai, there's a blue crab in here. Can you block it over there for me? I'll chase it out from this side!"
"Okay, I'll do whatever you say."
"Brother Bai, there are shrimp in this puddle, shall we scoop them up?"
"Let's skip this one. There aren't many shrimp here, and the pit is too big. It would be a waste of time to catch them."
......
While Bai Yu and Li Xue were diligently gathering seafood, the fans in the live stream sensed something was off about their daily interactions. Why was there a sour, foul smell?
Once Bai Yu got into the beachcombing mode, he stopped paying much attention to the comments in the live stream. At most, he would introduce a particular type of seafood to the viewers when it appeared.
At first, the viewers in the live stream didn't seem to notice anything, but as the words "Xue'er" and "Xiaobai Ge" were mentioned repeatedly, the viewers started to feel something was off. Why were they being so intimate?
Although the audience knew that Bai Yu and Li Xue were a married couple, and even legally married, many single people in the live stream still sensed that something was amiss.
Two hours later, when Li Xue was catching a blue crab, she was pinched by the crab when she wasn't paying attention, and that ended her beachcombing trip.
Bai Yu didn't care whether the blue crab that caused this result was a pound in size or not; one crab could sell for nearly a hundred yuan.
He took the crab directly to their tent, lit some branches, roasted the crab, and then handed the culprit to Li Xue.
They got pinched by crabs while beachcombing, so they'll skip it this morning. The tide's coming in now, so they can do something else.
"Xue'er, does the place where your hand was pinched still hurt?"
"It's okay, Brother Bai. I was wearing gloves, and most of the crab's strength was caught in the gloves. My hand was just scratched, it's nothing serious."
"It's alright. You can sit here for a while. I'll go get the fishing rod. Let's stop beachcombing for now and go fishing for a bit."
Then Bai Yu took out his and Li Xue's fishing rods and began preparing to fish.
Since they need to earn their own money for this trip around the world, they naturally need to be prepared, especially for fishing, where they must be well-prepared.
After all, if you're lucky enough to catch something while fishing, you can have a pretty good catch and even make a fortune.
Bai Yu quickly set up two fishing rods, using shrimp as bait that they had collected while beachcombing. Although the quantity wasn't large, it was enough for fishing.
Bai Yu and Li Xue each carried a coconut, placed it on the beach, and then sat on it, using the coconut as a small stool.
Then, with a flick of the hook, which was attached to a shrimp, he flung it into the sea in front of him.
Although there are waves near the shore of these small islands in the ocean, they are much smaller than the waves along the coastline.
Meanwhile, in the sea not far from the island, the depth varies and the seabed conditions are very complex.
This situation might be risky for large ships, but it's relatively friendly for anglers.
After all, the more complex the underwater conditions, the more likely there are sea fish in those places, and you might even be able to catch some.
While fishing, Bai Yu simply took a phone stand and placed the phone behind the couple. They chatted while fishing.
As for Wang Hai and the others, they were all busy with their own things, some going to the beach, some fishing, and no one bothered each other.
However, in terms of live streaming, Zhang Yuxin and Keke have started broadcasting, while only Wang Hai and Xia Jing have not.
Zhang Yuxin and Keke are both live streamers, and they are among the top live streamers selling goods at Yuxue Shipping Company. They each have a lot of followers on their accounts. When they are not working, they will also do live streams to earn some money from gifts.
Although Zhang Yuxin and Keke also started their live streams this time, they did the same thing as Bai Yu: they didn't open the gift system.
There was nothing they could do; Bai Yu's livestream didn't have the gift system enabled, so naturally, neither of them would either.
Bai Yu is quite satisfied with her current life. Although she waited for a long time without any fish biting, being able to chat with her loved one seems pretty good.
In previous years, Bai Yu was always very busy, running around here and there every day, and he didn't spend much time in China, let alone spend time with Li Xue.
Now that they've started their world tour, he'll have plenty of time to spend with Li Xue. Even though it's not just the two of them on this trip, the people accompanying them are all their closest friends.
This is the kind of life that many people envy; in any case, they are very content.
