"How come so many starfish suddenly appeared overnight?"
"It's really strange. These are not only beautiful, but also quite large, much bigger than the one or two you usually find."
"It's beautiful, but this beach is terrible. We won't be able to go fishing for a long time."
"Yes, the clams are going to be in trouble..."
Everyone was chatting and picking things up in small groups, their faces beaming with smiles.

Xiao Guowu looked on with envy: "Who says otherwise? They're incredibly lucky."
"It was just a coincidence." Feng Ye smiled and urged, "Hurry up and pick them up. If you wait any longer, the tide will come in and you won't be able to pick them up anymore."
"Yes, hurry up and pick it up. This stuff is cheap, but it's practically free, so don't worry about the price. Besides, it's good to take it home and eat it or dry it to make medicinal wine..."
