Chapter 83 Opening the Pearl
Five people are not too many. They have guns and the extremely powerful Qin Shen. Jiang Si doesn’t think it is too dangerous, but he still needs to be vigilant.
Jiang Si returned to the yacht and said to everyone, "Someone is coming, everyone be careful."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone put down their chopsticks, drew their weapons, and looked outside the yacht cautiously.
After a while, the five people appeared on the top of the mountain.
They saw the anchored yacht and stopped moving forward.
Jiang Si couldn't hear what they were discussing, so he moved closer to Qin Shen and asked, "Can you hear what they are saying?"
In front of Qin Shen's super hearing, these people should have no secrets when they speak.
Qin Shen replied without surprise: "They want to occupy our ship and are discussing how to drive us off."
Jiang Si frowned, "You don't know whether to live or die."
After a moment of silence, Qin Shen continued, "They have people in the northern base. If we dare not obey, they will send someone to take us away."
Jiang Si frowned even more. If any of them had contact with the northern base, they would not be able to kill them quietly.
Jiang Sidao said, "After all, this ship belongs to us. It won't be easy for them to take it away."
At worst, she could just drive the boat out to sea. She wanted to see if the Northern Base would just act like bandits and rob people.
The ship legally belongs to her.
Even if there are no laws now, they were the ones who occupied the ship first.
The five people barely managed to spend the night in the dilapidated fishing village.
As the sky was just getting light, they got up and saw the yacht slowly sailing into the sea.
They quickly caught up and shouted, "Stop! Stop!"
Jiang Si stopped the boat two hundred meters away from them and watched to see what these people could come up with after thinking all night.
The tallest man in the group said, "We are from the Northern Base. You have gone out to sea without permission. You must return with us to register!"
Jiang Si raised an eyebrow: "Aren't we?"
The man was choked by Jiang Si's arrogant tone, and then said angrily: "So everyone must obey the orders of the Northern Base, otherwise, if something goes wrong, no one will take care of you!"
Jiang Si laughed, "When we were in trouble, the Northern Base didn't come to take care of us!"
The man's face looked extremely bad, and he suddenly realized that Jiang Si and the others had never registered at the Northern Base, and were now illegal residents.
He became increasingly arrogant and said, "If you don't come, I'll find someone to take you back. Anyone who doesn't register will be considered an outlaw by the Northern Base, and you will all be punished."
"You guys should take the initiative to register now. There's still time."
He was threatening everyone to hand over the boat.
How could Jiang Si be scared by his lame excuse? If everyone really had to go to the northern base to register, Kuang Jiaying would not let them leave.
If they don’t even care about guns, how can they care whether they register them or not?
In the previous life, people who entered the northern base just had an extra code, and could receive tasks within the base. After completing the tasks, they could use the points to redeem corresponding medicines and supplies, etc.
For those who have no shortage of supplies, going to the northern base is just an extra layer of security.
However, in the later period when the supplies in the northern base were seriously unbalanced, the psychological defenses of mankind collapsed with the increasingly difficult living environment, and the northern base became a place where people could eat each other.
Those who had supplies but were unable to protect them immediately became prey to looting.
Seeing that Jiang Si was not moved at all, the men's faces became increasingly gloomy, but they were helpless as they were several hundred meters away from the water surface.
It seems that the only way to get the yacht back is to go back and report to the Northern Base and report their unusual behavior.
After the five men left, Jiang Si and the others did not rush to dock. Instead, they drove the yacht around.
A few traps I picked up randomly in the sea area contained a lot of seafood.
Suddenly, Shen Baoying shouted excitedly, "Sisi, come and see, is this a pearl oyster that specializes in raising pearls?"
Jiang Si leaned over to take a look and saw quite a few large clams pouring out of the trap. She guessed, "That should be it. Let's open it and take a look and we'll know."
Although at the end of the world, pearls are not as valuable as a mouthful of white sugar.
But which woman doesn't like beautiful things? Besides, it was the first time for everyone to experience the joy of opening clams.
Shen Baoying used a knife to pry open the clam, and when she reached in, she felt a hard, round object. She immediately shouted excitedly, "There are pearls, there really are pearls!"
Everyone opened their eyes wide at the same time. Shen Baoying threw the pearl she touched into the small basin, and it turned out to be a golden pearl with a large diameter.
After washing it and taking it out of the water, it is not only shiny and beautiful, but also big and round. It is one of the best products in the shopping mall counters.
Jiang Si smiled and said, "I made a profit. This pearl looks very expensive."
Shen Baoying happily started to pry up the second clam, while Jiang Linhai increased the speed of fishing traps.
Shen Baoying also gave a few to Niuniu and Jiang Si so that everyone could play with them and experience a rare happy time.
Jiang Si opened a total of six sea clams. The pearls in each shell were different. Some were strange-shaped baroque pearls, while others were beautiful, round white and purple pearls, all of which were very large.
These traps were also washed everywhere, and many pearl oysters died, with pearls mixed in them.
But these pearls are so beautiful.
Shen Baoying was still muttering that she would save the money to make a pearl necklace for Jiang Si to wear when she got married.
Jiang Si liked the heart-shaped baroque pearl she had opened very much and kept playing with it.
Qin Shen saw it and suddenly reached out and handed it over. They were all of this shape.
Jiang Si smiled and said, "It turns out that pearls can also be cultivated in fixed shapes."
Qin Shen glanced at her and said, "But she's also very pretty."
For some reason, Qin looked at her with deep eyes and said this. She held the pearl in her hand, but her heart felt a little hot.
Jiang Si directly ground the pearls with strange shapes and flaws into pearl powder and made a limited edition pearl mask. Shen Baoying exclaimed luxuriously: "Don't waste this real pearl mask."
When her hands were sticky, she smeared them on Jiang Linhai's face.
Jiang Linhai wanted to hide, but was forced to hold him down by Shen Baoying, and smeared all over his face, like a little flower dog, which made everyone laugh.
The northern base is probably very far away from here. The five men were gone for several days and never came back with anyone.
Jiang Si discovered a small island near the fishing village. The island was deserted and had only a lighthouse.
Everyone moored the yacht on the island, picked up seafood, caught some fish, processed them and dried them in the sun.
There are also some wild pineapples on the island, which are golden and everyone loves to eat them, but eating too much will cause sore throat.
Shen Baoying led everyone to make preserved fruits, pineapple jam, and canned food.
Lu Zhifeng was always worried about running out of sugar, so when he stumbled upon sugarcane on the island, he excitedly exclaimed, "We can make sugar from sugarcane!"
