Schools of fish on coral reefs
The closest spot to Chen Zhiyao is home to a pair of very beautiful butterfly fish.
The one on the left is blue with some white stripes in the middle, and its fins are a nice yellow.
The fish is very brightly colored, making it dazzling in the dark water.
Chen Zhiyao moved very gently, quietly approached, and quickly clamped it with a clip.

The other one is black and blue, with more black, and its fins are also yellow.
Chen Zhiyao thought it wasn't as good-looking as the previous one, but whether it looked good or not didn't matter to her, as long as it could make money.
The two butterflyfish were originally looking at each other from a distance of half a meter apart.
After one of them was caught by Chen Zhiyao, the other immediately ran frantically into the coral next to it.
She put the blue butterflyfish she had just caught into the net, and the little guy had already hidden inside the pink coral nearby.
If the fish had swum straight ahead, Chen Zhiyao definitely wouldn't have been able to catch it.
Unfortunately, the little guy hid inside the coral and was discovered by her very quickly.
This pink coral was particularly beautiful, and Chen Zhiyao couldn't help but take a few more glances at it.
Then she discovered that, in addition to the butterflyfish, there was a moray eel, thicker than her wrist and with strange patterns, under the coral.
Not bad, not bad. I didn't expect there to be such a big guy hidden down there. Chen Zhiyao was very satisfied with this unexpected surprise.
"Knock knock knock..."
She tapped the coral a few times with her tweezers and quickly coaxed the two little creatures out.
Butterflyfish are quick and are the first to escape.
Immediately afterwards, he was caught by Chen Zhiyao, who was waiting nearby.

The moray eel below was moving slower; it had only just run out when she turned around.
The creature's large head had just burrowed into a crevice in the rocks, with most of its body still sticking out.
With the all-purpose tongs in Chen Zhiyao's hand, she easily pulled it out of the crack in the rock.
This is a flower eel, and it's quite large, weighing at least eight pounds.
Tomorrow is Lunar New Year's Eve, and the prices of various seafood have reached their peak in the past two days, with some rare and high-quality items increasing several times over.
Such a large eel, as long as it's not overcrowded, could easily sell for a thousand yuan.
Chen Zhiyao happily put it into her possession.
Conger eel +1
After pulling the giant eel out, Chen Zhiyao discovered that there were two abalone and a very beautiful spider snail hiding in the crevice.

She casually put the three little creatures into the net bag, and the shells made a few crisp sounds as they collided, which were quite pleasant to hear.
After tying the drawstring of the net, Chen Zhiyao turned her attention back to the group of beautiful fish in front of her.
Black sea bream +2
Spinetail +3
Striped pepper snapper +3
Red sea bream +1
...
Chen Zhiyao's fishing movements were too large, and soon the fish began to escape.
In less than 5 minutes, the once bustling coral reef suddenly became deserted.
Although the fish had escaped, she soon found two brightly colored blue wrasses among a patch of orange coral.
In addition, a sesame eel and a pepper snapper were hiding beneath the coral.

Sesame eel +1
Pepper Snapper +1
Although the sesame eel was a bit small, the bluefin tuna and pepper snapper each weighed over two pounds.
Chen Zhiyao continued forward with a beaming smile.
Suddenly, she saw a very pretty light purple sphere in front of her.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a jellyfish.
The jellyfish wasn't very big, but it was crystal clear and emitted a faint purple glow, making it more beautiful than any she had ever seen before.

Although the jellyfish were pretty, they couldn't be sold for money, so Chen Zhiyao glanced at them twice and then ignored them.
She walked through the colorful coral and came to a rocky outcrop.
As soon as she looked down, she saw a giant conch shell about the length of a palm in front of her to her left.
Chen Zhiyao was overjoyed; this big guy must weigh at least a pound. She quickly swam forward.

After acquiring this large creature, Chen Zhiyao noticed that there were many other good things nearby.
Plump sea cucumber +2
Brightly colored and beautiful whelks +3
Plump and cute piglet snails +2
Giant horseshoe snails the size of a fist +2
There was originally another large blue crab weighing six or seven ounces, but this one is now pregnant.
In order to have more large blue crabs in the future, she had no choice but to release it with a heavy heart.
A short while later, Chen Zhiyao stopped in front of a large rock that was even taller than herself.
She glanced over casually, and her already large almond-shaped eyes suddenly widened into a wide stare.
Several giant abalone, each the size of a palm, were found clinging to the rock face.
These abalones must have lived for countless years to grow to such a size; each one weighs over a pound.
Its shell was almost entirely covered in gray-black moss, blending seamlessly with the giant rock in front of it.
If she hadn't turned on her X-ray glasses, she would have definitely thought these were just stones.
These abalones are attached so tightly, as if they were growing on the rocks.
Seeing that she couldn't get them off, Chen Zhiyao simply used a pair of clips to remove them one by one.
Five large abalone, each as big as her palm, felt heavy in her hand.
"I'm rich! This abalone weighs a pound each."
At that moment, Xiaomeng in my mind suddenly said excitedly:
"Tangtang, these abalone are so big, they might have abalone pearls inside. Quickly use your X-ray glasses to take a look."
"By the way, abalone and pearls, these are valuable and precious items."
Chen Zhiyao quickly picked up the abalone one by one to check, but found nothing on the first four.
The last one is smaller than the previous four, weighing about eight or nine ounces.
Chen Zhiyao had given up hope, but unexpectedly, she found a small dark shadow inside the smallest abalone.
The shadowy figure wasn't large; it looked somewhat like a crescent moon.
Chen Zhiyao immediately became excited, convinced that this must be abalone pearl.
She carefully placed the last few large abalones into the net bag.
She originally intended to go back directly to get the abalone and pearls, but seeing that there were still many good things around, she stayed.
It's foolish not to make money when you can; let's focus on making the small amount of money in front of us first.
Chen Zhiyao walked around the boulder and ended up with two large handfuls of good stuff in her hands.
Baby abalone +6
Piglet snail +5
Horseshoe snails +3
Flower snail +6
Conch +2
...
There were so many good things that the net bag specially designed for holding seashells was almost full before she continued swimming forward.
Soon, she discovered another nest of good stuff in a small pit.
"I'm rich! I'm rich!" Chen Zhiyao's voice trembled with excitement.
