Chapter Twenty-Three: The Big Abalone

After sending the pink manta ray into the water, Cai Hongming picked up the fishing rod again.

Who knew that the situation was the same as before, there was not even a single fish shadow after fishing for a long time, even if he took the green lingzhi out.

The elderly fish to kill time, the young people fish for the joy of the harvest, if they can't even catch a hair, who wants to fish? After fishing for a while, seeing that he didn't catch even a small fish, Cai Hongming threw away the fishing rod angrily, took off his clothes and drilled into the sea with a net.

You can't catch a fish even if you work so hard, so it's better to go to the sea to catch it. Last time, he saw some purple sea urchins underneath and planned to catch some and eat them.

Swimming into the sea, he came to a coral reef in a short time.

The edge of the coral reef is covered with seaweed, and many purple sea urchins that depend on seaweed lie here. Cai Hongming saw it, stretched out his hand and grabbed it. The purple sea urchin noticed the fluctuation of the current, and immediately shrank up and wanted to run. It's a pity that I was able to run away, and I was cleaned up by Cai Hongming one by one. However, he didn't take much, only picked some relatively large ones and went back to eat.

The pink manta ray did not swim far after being sent into the water by Cai Hongming, just nearby, and saw him continue to fish with green lingzhi, knowing that he would be hooked by the hook, so he endured it and did not bite it.

However, it didn't leave, it just lay down near the hook, and chased away any fish whenever they wanted to come and eat the green reishi. That's why Cai Hongming couldn't catch a fish. When Cai Hongming got into the water, he hurriedly swam far away. When he went to pick up the sea urchin, he swam back and secretly followed, only to see it lying in the mud for a while, lying among the seaweed, and sticking to the reef for a while, sneaking and sneaky, and it looked funny.

It thought that Cai Hongming hadn't discovered it, but in fact, he had seen it as early as when it was close, no way, who made it so bright in pink?

It's just that Cai Hongming saw that it had no malicious intentions, so he didn't care about it and continued his great business of fishing for the sea.

After picking up the sea urchins, Cai Hongming continued to look for other things in the sea.

Located at the confluence of rivers and seas, there are many kinds of fish, such as rhubarb, black, sea bass, red sweet, shark, ray, golden silk and other fish that cannot be seen in other places, and there are many shellfish. It turned out that there were a lot of them, and after looking for a while, he caught some scallops, sea moons, and cones.

The scallop and the moon are both normal sizes, except for the larger cone.

Most of the cones sold on the market are about 8 centimeters long, but the one Cai Hongming caught in the sea is 20 centimeters long. I believe that such a large thing must taste very delicious.

I fished a bunch of them and filled them to the brim. Cai Hongming took a look at it and felt that the things in the net pocket were enough to eat, so he wanted to go ashore.

Suddenly, he saw a stone monster under a nearby coral reef. There are a few small shellfish parasitic on the rocks, and some seaweed crawling makes it look like it's rusty. But how he looked at it and thought it looked like something he had seen before, but he couldn't remember what it was. So, he swam over and tried to flip it.

Phew

He couldn't even turn the stone up, so he used a little force, and it was quite difficult, and when he grabbed it, he saw where the stone was, and it was clearly a big abalone.

Nanzhou is located on the southeast coast and is rich in products, especially in Dongshan, which is surrounded by seawater. There is more seafood in the county. Over there, all kinds of seafood have been cultivated on a large scale, and there are many abalones raised, and it is said that 6% of the country's abalone species come from Dongshan. Because of this, the price of abalone in Nanzhou is very cheap, about 20 yuan per pound for a small one, and only between sixty yuan for a large one. When it comes to delicacies from the mountains and seas in the mainland, lobster, abalone, shark fin, these things are really cheap here.

In rural Nanzhou, as long as there is a little money, there are almost abalone and lobster when the wedding banquet is held. Sometimes several families marry in succession, and the lobster and abalone are eaten so much that you want to vomit.

Cai Hongming has seen a lot of abalone, but he seems to have never seen such a big one.

I've seen a little smaller than this one in the market before, and this one on my hand is the size of a palm, and I don't know what it tastes like, and he has never eaten such a big abalone. Thinking about it, he put the abalone in his net pocket and swam to the shore, which was enough for tonight's feast.

When the pink manta saw the abalone caught in Cai Hongming's hand, her eyes blinked cutely, and she didn't know what she was thinking, so she suddenly turned her head and swam into the distance.

Cai Hongming got out of the sea and walked ashore.

At this moment, the pink manta ray swam quickly from a distance, rushed out of the water, and pounced on the beach in front of him, and then it pushed a stone-like thing on its head in front of Cai Hongming, and pulled over the fishing rod that he had put next to him with the green lingzhi hanging on it, and pushed it again, as if it wanted to exchange the stone for the green lingzhi.

This guy, when he is a fool? Is there a mistake in exchanging stones for Ganoderma lucidum?

Cai Hongming slandered in his heart, and suddenly, he found that the stone was not a stone at all, it was clearly a big abalone bigger than the abalone in his hand. Bang, it's almost the size of a volleyball.

I don't know if it's because he has shallow knowledge and too little experience. He had never heard of an abalone this big, and he had never seen it before.

"Whew, whew."

Seeing that he didn't move, the pink manta ray pushed the big abalone to Cai Hongming's side again, and used two wing-like fins to pull the green lingzhi on the hook. It seems that I really want to exchange large abalone for green reishi.

All right! Under its generous fist, Cai Hongming reluctantly exchanged the green lingzhi for it. But it wasn't too harsh, and it also came with a little water jade toad liquid for it to drink, which made the little guy so excited that he threw himself into the sea, and quickly rushed out of the sea, fanning the pair of fleshy fin wings and flying freely in the air.

All this happened in an instant, and when Cai Hongsheng found out, they ran over to see that it was done.

Cai Hongming saw them coming, and hurriedly put away the volleyball abalone brought by the pink manta ray. Such a large abalone is rare in the world and can be eaten secretly, but it is best not to see the light, so as not to be known and cause trouble.

"Brother, what was that guy doing just now?" Cai Hongsheng ran over and asked.

"How do I know?" Cai Hongming responded angrily.

"Brother, why did Honghong come up again?" Lu Qiaohong and the other two girls also ran over and asked when they saw the pink manta ray coming up.

"Eh, who's Honghong?" Cai Hongming was confused.

"It's the manta ray you just caught! Let's name her Honghong, how about it, that sounds good, right? Lu Qiaohong said proudly.

Cai Hongming pursed his lips, feeling stunned, but he didn't say it. At first glance, it was discussed by a few girls, and there was no reason to say it to offend people, but they just nodded and said, "It's good." ”

"Wow, brother, where did you catch such a big abalone?" When Cai Hongsheng saw the big abalone in Cai Hongming's net pocket, he immediately shouted, turned his head and shouted to Lu Qitian: "Uncle, come over to see what my brother caught, a big abalone the size of a palm, you have never seen it." ”

Lu Qitian was fishing, and when he heard him calling, he walked over. A few other anglers were also attracted by what he said and came over to take a look.

"Wow, what a big snail, it's so beautiful." Lu Qiaohong also screamed when she saw the cone snail growing in Cai Hongming's net pocket.

The two girls next to him listened and nodded their heads.

A few girls, looking at the cone snails covered with flowers on the shell, their eyes are full of love! But Cai Hongming clearly felt that these loves had a tendency to leave him.
