Chapter 165 Going in a big circle



Because most of them were blue crabs, this one red crab was indeed a bit eye-catching. Wang Shiyu even went forward to take a look. It was indeed a king crab, and the waiter was tying its struggling thighs with a thatched rope.

She didn't ask the fishermen who were busy tying crabs. They were very busy, so she didn't want to make things worse. She returned to the rocking chair and continued watching them work.

The shrimp cage is even more amazing. It is full of relatively large tiger shrimps. The smaller ones can directly drill out through the holes in the cage, so the only ones left are the big ones.

To be honest, it would be a shame not to have a crab feast tonight. She couldn't help but think that if the crabs were not caught with cages and nets like before, the seafood in their country would not be so expensive. In addition, the discharge of nuclear waste water by a certain island country caused them to not dare to eat seafood at that time.

Moreover, the price of farmed seafood began to rise sharply. Wang Shiyu rarely had the feeling of eating all-you-can-eat seafood. It was only after coming here that her family started to cook various seafood every day.

Yu Xiuming glanced at Wang Shiyu without saying anything, but Jianshu was very self-aware and went straight to the kitchen to ask them to prepare a seafood feast. They did not have the habit of eating raw food, and even if they ate it occasionally, it was just to try it out, so the dinner was very rich, with steamed crabs, spicy stir-fried crabs, braised tiger prawns, steamed turbot and so on, which made Wang Shiyu eat until her belly was full.

After talking about these shrimp and crab cages, the boat started to set sail again. After all, they couldn't just stay in this sea area for so much time.

On the sixth day of their journey, an island suddenly appeared on their right. They could clearly see signs of human activity on the island. They looked like ordinary people, not pirates, because their clothes were almost the same as those of the farmers there, all wearing coarse cloth and shorts. However, there didn't seem to be anyone with more luxurious clothes, it seemed that everyone was equal.

After seeing the people on the island, Wang Shiyu asked Yu Xiuming curiously, what is the situation on this island?

"Zichuan, why are there still signs of human activity on this island? It's so far from the port, how do they live here?"

Yu Xiuming followed Wang Shiyu's finger and looked at the island over there. Next to the island, there were people rowing a small boat and fishing. No one knew how they came to this island from the sea, and they seemed to be self-sufficient, a bit like a paradise. It even seemed that the people there should be quite happy.

"That's an off-island. The people on it are the descendants of the Dazhou Dynasty royal family. However, they made some serious mistakes in the past and their rebellion failed. They were reported and even their dragon robes were found. So they were exiled here by the emperor. There are fresh water resources on that island, so these people can survive on it and grow crops.

When some fishing boats return, they will choose to stay on this island. After all, you can buy vegetables here to improve the food for the people on the boat. Sometimes we will also make direct transactions with them. When we come back, we can exchange the leftover salt or other supplies with the people on this island.

It's just that these people have been imprisoned here by the emperor for many years, so they have no intention of leaving and have simply settled here."

Yu Xiuming was quite familiar with this island. The people who spoke had the same accent as them, and even had some Jinling accent. These people came from Jinling City. They seemed to be descendants of a prince, or the founding emperor of the Dazhou Dynasty. As for which one, Yu Xiuming didn't know much. Anyway, these people were inseparable. Wang Shiyu's mouth twitched. This emperor was a funny guy. He directly let his son establish himself as king here.

Although not allowing these people to leave is a form of protection, or is Wang Shiyu overthinking it, and the emperor simply wants to kill off this lineage? If this is true, it would be really tragic.

Suddenly I didn't know what to say. I didn't realize that the emperor of the Dazhou Dynasty was so cruel. He actually sent his own child to such a faraway place, where there was no village or shop nearby.

Even buying some daily necessities is very troublesome. I don’t know how many people are exiled here. Looking at the scattered houses, I estimate that there should be quite a few people.
