As the small fish in front slowly approached, the red spots on its body became more and more obvious.
This is a red-spotted fish weighing over two pounds. Although it's not as big as the one that weighed over four pounds last time, it's still exciting enough.
The fishing ban is coming soon, so the price will definitely rise a lot.
At this moment, Chen Zhiyao came up with a great idea.
If she raises some healthy sea fish and sells them after the fishing ban ends, the price will definitely increase by several times.
The red-spotted fish in front of him was still wandering around aimlessly, unaware that someone was watching him intently.
This guy was leisurely passing by Chen Zhiyao, preparing to go and rest in the coral reef.
Just as they were about to reach their destination, the poor little guy suddenly got caught in a pair of clips.
Red-spotted Fish +1
After carefully storing the red-spotted fish, which was worth over a thousand yuan, Chen Zhiyao, in a good mood, went to a patch of pale purple dwarf coral.
At first glance, this coral reef doesn't seem particularly special.
However, if you look closely, you can find plump sea urchins covered with sharp spines hidden in many inconspicuous little corners.
Sea urchins are a delicacy! Chen Zhiyao immediately beamed and picked out the little black spiky balls one by one.
"One, two, three... seven." There were a total of seven giant sea urchins.
Besides these sea urchins, there are many other interesting things hidden around this coral.
As soon as she looked down, she found a large conch shell in a crevice of a nearby rock.
Before they could finish celebrating, they discovered two fist-sized horseshoe snails and several small flower snails behind the rocks.
Sea urchin +7
Conch +1
Horseshoe snails +2
Flower snail +4
After placing the delicious conch shells away, Chen Zhiyao looked up and saw a sea fish that looked like a broom not far away.
This is a blue-striped filefish, and it's quite big.
This guy was chasing a small, insignificant fish, and with a wide-open mouth, he swallowed the fleeing creature whole.
The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.
The blue-striped triggerfish had just finished a hearty meal when Chen Zhiyao, who was lurking behind it, caught it. She grabbed the fish by the head and deliberately shook it a couple of times, making it look like a broom.
Bluefin tuna has a thick layer of scales that need to be removed before it can be eaten.
It is also known as the blue-striped filefish because of the many blue stripes on its body.
Moreover, its scales can be used in medicine, having the effects of clearing heat and detoxifying, reducing swelling and relieving pain. It can be said that the whole plant is a treasure.
There are many ways to cook bluefin bream, including steaming, pan-frying, and braising, but steaming is the most delicious.
Blue-striped triggerfish are not cheap; a fish this big, weighing about 500 grams, would easily sell for over 60 yuan.
Unfortunately, there was only one around. She looked around but couldn't find a second bluefin tuna.
Soon, Chen Zhiyao noticed several oddly shaped rocks beside her.
Upon closer inspection, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up in a wide smile.
It turns out that the surface of the rock was covered with many conches and abalone, and there were also many plump crabs hiding under the crevices.

Conch +1

Blue crab +2
In just a few minutes, the net bag in Chen Zhiyao's hand gained several kilograms of weight.
After crossing these treasure-filled reefs, she arrived at a sandy area.
This small sandy area looks perfectly flat, as if there's nothing there. In reality, various valuable seafood is hidden beneath the sand.
At that moment, right at her feet was a giant conch shell that was bigger than her face.
Chen Zhiyao took out a small hook specifically for digging up seafood in the sand and quickly dug out the big guy. Given its enormous size, along with the patterns and spots on its shell, she quickly recognized it as a spotted harp snail.
The spotted snail is known for the patterns and spots on its shell and typically lives on coral reefs or sandy seabeds.
There are very few of these spotted snails near Baisha Village, so this was the first time she had ever picked one up by hand.
The conch shell was so big that even with her five fingers spread out, Chen Zhiyao couldn't completely cover it.
This big thing feels heavy in my hand; it probably weighs more than a pound.
Having just dug up a large one, Chen Zhiyao soon dug up a smaller spotted snail not far away.
The smaller one is only the size of a fist, and it looks quite delicate.
Flower-shaped conch +2
Immediately afterwards, Chen Zhiyao entered a state of frantically digging a hole.
Three-eyed Crab +2
Flower snail +5
Little Green Dragon +2
Large blue crab +1
Spider snail +2
Flower-shaped conch +3
As she dug, Chen Zhiyao suddenly spotted a flounder that was almost completely blending into the sand. The flounder was quite adept at hiding; if it weren't for her X-ray glasses, she probably would have missed it.
This guy kept pretending to be dead, and even when Chen Zhiyao came right up to him, he resolutely didn't move.
But this was exactly what she wanted, and she easily picked up the halibut.
At this moment, the flounder that was trapped was filled with regret. It could have run away just now, but it couldn't.
Flounder +1
However, this one action immediately alerted the enemy.
The seawater in front of them suddenly became murky, and the fish that were hiding under the mud and sand were all frightened.
Immediately afterwards, a stingray weighing about 10 pounds and two flounders fled in different directions.
Chen Zhiyao made a quick decision and immediately chased after the largest manta ray.
Fortunately, the manta ray wasn't swimming very fast, and she caught up with it in no time.
The poor manta ray had its tail caught between its legs and was helplessly trapped in a net.
Manta Ray +1
There are quite a few good things in the sea. Soon, Chen Zhiyao found another small patch of clams.
She dug out plump and juicy clams one by one, and in just a few minutes, she had filled half a net bag.
Of course, there are many more good things in the sea than just these, and Chen Zhiyao started digging holes like crazy again.
Yellow clams +8
Octopus +5
Flower snail +6
Three-eyed Crab +3
Mantis shrimp +6
Nine-shrimp +5
Xi Shi Bei +2
After thoroughly exploring the sandy seabed, Chen Zhiyao returned to the colorful coral reef in front of her.
At this time, there were many more fish in the sea.
Beautiful fish of various colors and patterns frolic and play in groups, looking like a scene from a dream.
However, Chen Zhiyao only had eyes for money, so she quickly went over and started frantically buying goods.
Blue-striped Leatherfish +3
Striped pepper snapper +1
Red sea bream +3
Bluefin bream +2
Pepper Snapper +2
Butterflyfish +2
Such a beautiful fish, should we braise it or steam it?
