Chapter 190: Xiangluo Plain
And as they got closer, they also found a lot of coconut snails, rattle snails, horn snails, horseshoe snails and so on in the cracks of some rocks on the islands and reefs.
What kind of islands and reefs are here, now in the eyes of Li Xiaoming and Han Minghua, this is clearly a golden mountain!
Li Xiaofeng woke up the two of them and said, "What are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and pick up the conch!" Remember to pick the valuable ones, and when the time comes, the fishing boat will buy them from you at one-third of the price of these conches, which will be regarded as your personal reward. ”
took out one-third as a reward for two people, which is also a more reasonable reward range that Li Xiaofeng considered just now.
After all, the fishing boat is not his alone, and he can't let the fishing boat suffer, but he can't let the two of them do it in vain.
One-third, it doesn't seem like much, but after all, there are conch shells everywhere here, and it's so easy to pick up!
Hearing this, the two of them reacted at once, looking at the conch all over the ground, Han Minghua said excitedly: "Fifth brother, is this really a third of our personal reward, so will the other crew members have any opinions?" ”
Li Xiaoliang next to him also looked at him expectantly.
Li Xiaofeng patted him on the shoulder with a smile and said with a smile: "What do you think about?" The fishing boat also has to work more and get more, and they just gave them a chance, but they didn't catch it. If you give, you will definitely reap! ”
Hearing his words, the two of them relaxed, Han Minghua jumped on the reef with joy, and then Li Xiaoming also followed closely to the reef.
However, Li Xiaofeng did not plan to go to the island and reef with them to pick up conch.
Han Minghua saw that Li Xiaofeng didn't get off the rubber boat, and asked a little strangely: "Fifth brother, don't you come down to pick it up?" ”
Li Xiaofeng smiled at him and said: "You two first find a place to fix the rubber boat, this island and reef are not much on the surface now, you two can pick it up on it, I'll go underwater and have a look!" ”
The two of them nodded after listening, and began to fix the rope connected to the rubber boat on a rock, and then quickly took the snakeskin bag and began to pick up the conch all over the island.
Li Xiaofeng put on fins, put on an oxygen cylinder on his back, put on a mask, took out a propeller, tied a large net pocket around his waist, and finally brought a fishing gun, jumped from the rubber boat into the sea, and swam towards the bottom of the sea.
The water is very clear, the water is very good, and the visibility on the bottom of the sea is also very high.
Li Xiaofeng sneaked all the way down, and he could see that the underwater part of the reef was also crawled with all kinds of conch and oysters, looking like an island composed of various conch and oysters.
With the help of the thruster, it didn't take long for Li Xiaofeng to come to the bottom of the sea, where the water was not very deep.
After descending to the bottom of the sea, Li Xiaofeng began to look around through the mask.
It looked like a plain under the sea, but there were a lot of reefs around it, and the one they had seen before was just one of many reefs under the sea, but it was the only one that surfaced.
Viewed from the bottom of the sea, they look like towering peaks on this submarine plain.
On top of these towering reef islands, most of them are densely packed, and the layers are crawling with all kinds of conch and oysters, which makes people's scalp tingle to see.
Beneath the seabed is covered with fine yellow sand, a small amount of gravel and sparse seagrass and seaweed, giving the impression that you have come to a sparsely vegetated Gobi Desert.
There are also a lot of scallops and conch in the yellow sand.
These scallops are just some very common ctenophora scallops, because they have achieved large-scale artificial cultivation, so the value is not high, of course, Li Xiaofeng did not come down for them.
He came down this time, mainly because there were a lot of conch conchs in them, which were expensive and good.
The scientific name of the snail is also called the tube horn snail, which belongs to the gastropod class, the helmet snail family.
Conch prefers to live on shallow sediment and muddy seafloors, mainly in the Sea of Japan and the southeast coast of China.
Because of the large individual, delicious taste and rich nutrition, it is deeply loved by people. However, due to the overfishing in recent years, it is difficult to find them in shallow waters.
The artificial breeding of snails is still in its infancy.
This has also caused the snail to be in short supply in the market, expensive, and even gradually become a more expensive seafood.
In their market, conches can generally be sold for 112 yuan a catty!
This is actually a very expensive price, after all, the part of the snail that can be eaten is limited, and most of the weight is on the snail shell.
Thinking of the delicacy of charcoal-roasted snails, Li Xiaofeng couldn't help but swallow his saliva, this is a dish that Cai Lan, the god of food, called a must-eat before he dies!
And now, the snails, which are usually rare outside, are rampant here, and many of them are very large, which looks like the conch that has grown for many years.
Li Xiaofeng looked into the distance through his mask, and he couldn't see where the end of the plain was with snails and scallops.
Looking at the towering islands and reefs around him, Li Xiaofeng knew that it should be precisely because of the unique terrain here that fishing boats generally have no way to lay nets here, so that so many conch conch can survive here.
Li Xiaofeng glanced at the map again, and after confirming that there was no danger around, like a hard-working little bee, he picked up a conch on the bottom of the sea.
He picks up the big ones, and lets them continue to grow on the bottom of the sea if they are too small.
It was also very easy to pick up, and after a while, Li Xiaofeng picked up a conch full of nets.
However, he didn't just bring a net bag down this time, so after he tied the net pocket, he didn't choose to float, but took out another net bag and continued to pick up the conch.
Soon the second net pocket was also full, but these conches were only a drop in the bucket plain.
Li Xiaofeng activated the thruster and swam towards the sea with a conch full of two nets.
After a while he came to the surface of the sea, and after a certain direction, he swam towards the kayak again, and soon he was swimming to the side of the kayak.
Han Minghua and Li Xiaoming were still looking around for all kinds of conch on the islands and reefs.
At this time, the two of them also saw Li Xiaofeng who surfaced.
The two of them hurriedly walked in the direction of Li Xiaofeng and helped him drag the two large net bags full of them to the kayak.
At this time, the two of them saw that the net pocket was full of conch, but they knew that the price of the conch was very expensive.
Han Minghua said excitedly to Li Xiaofeng: "Fifth brother, you are going to get rich!" ”
