Chapter 22: The barrel has exploded
The pen holder is also called turtle foot and stone larvae.
It is a rare delicacy for the seaside gluttony, and its delicious taste is not inferior to that of Western gooseneck barnacles.
Since this thing cannot be artificially bred and grows in the most dangerous places, the price has never come down.
By 2020, Li Duoyu remembered that the pen holder had been sold for 150 yuan a catty, and if it was in good condition and had a lot of meat, 200 was not a problem.
Also because it is very expensive, there are many professional pry pen holder begging people, usually in a group of two, the person responsible for the pry pen stand should be tied to the safety rope, and the other is in a safe place to pull the rope.
But even so, I still hear some bad news every year.
Take advantage of the white waves to retreat.
Li Duoyu hurriedly grabbed the shovel, jumped onto the reef below, and shoveled down the roots of the whole cluster of pen holders.
Most of the meat of the pen holder is in the position of the base, and the pry pen holder must be pulled up even the seat.
Otherwise, the pen holder that was pried into not had much meat at all, and it was all the soft shell that wrapped the meat.
Once the pen holder is attacked by the outside world, it will shrink into the cracks, leaving some hard thorns.
At this time, if there is no special prying, it will be difficult to get it, but fortunately, there are enough pen holders on the reef, and Li Duoyu's shovel goes down, and the number of pen holders that are prying up is also very much.
There are more than a dozen of them.
And all of them are very full.
But after Zhou Xiaoying on the shore saw this scene, her heart rose to her throat, but the more she was at this time, the more she didn't dare to call him.
Little Fat Dun looked adoring.
"Wow, when did Uncle become so powerful, when I grow up, I'll pry that thing too."
Li Duoyu is also not greedy.
Once you've dug up, climb straight up to the reef because the waves will hit again soon.
Li Duoyu was told when he was a child that he must not be lucky in the face of the sea, and he must abide by the rules of the older generation, because you can get lucky many times, but as long as you make a mistake once, it will be gone.
After a few rounds of back-and-forth.
Li Duoyu knocked on the pen holder of half an iron bucket and came up from the reef below, there are many more on the reef, but he is not prying to sell, there is no need to continue to take this risk.
Seven sea mussels, half a barrel pen holder.
This is the current harvest of Li Duoyu, which is all this kind of shellfish, and it feels like something is missing.
Li Duoyu continued to climb a few reefs forward.
A rotten wooden boat was found with a large number of barnacles and sea melon seeds attached to it, as well as wild kelp.
Native breeds of wild kelp are small and thin, and those who raise pigs often collect wild kelp and seaweed to feed their pigs.
After turning over the rotten wooden boat, Li Duoyu found that there were a large number of round, black, and thorny knick-knacks in the cracks of the reef not far away.
Purple sea urchin.
A kind of local sea urchin, with long spines and very little meat, only in a certain season, will have a cream, this thing can be said to be the most hated by fishermen, if it is hung in the fishing net, you have to curse a few words.
It is often crushed and used for manure.
At this time, the fishermen don't even look at it with their eyes, but the island people like it to death and often eat it raw.
Li Duoyu also tried to eat it several times during the days when he was working as a black worker in the island country, and to be honest, even if he ate seafood from small to large, he still didn't like that taste very much.
After a trip to the sea, Li Duoyu found it.
The more things that fishermen don't eat now, the more expensive they will be in future generations, such as these sea anemones, sea urchins, pen holders, and the like.
Li Duoyu took a few more steps forward.
After seeing those things next to the reef, his eyes lit up instantly, this is a scene he has only heard from others after being a fisherman for so many years, but he has never seen it himself.
In the crevice of the reef, a moray eel, which was covered in spots and resembled a snake, was biting a red octopus much larger than it, and was rolling in death, and its entire head was covered by the red octopus's tentacles.
And the most interesting thing is that there is also a dying puppy shark lying nearby.
If Li Duoyu guessed correctly, not long ago, there should have been a drama of "praying mantis catching cicadas, yellow finches behind".
And this kind of moray eel is called bare-breasted eel, because the pattern on the body resembles a coin, the local fishermen generally call them money eel, also called, very ferocious.
Adult money eels can bite off fishermen's fingers, and in the offshore area, it can be said to be at the top of the food chain.
Even if this kind of big red medal that can prey on small dog sharks, after encountering the money eel, there is only one end, which is to be torn apart and eaten by it.
However, this kind of eel meat is not very delicious, and Li Duoyu really doesn't want it very much.
But after this game was told to humans, he was reluctant to give up his prey and escape, which made Li Duoyu feel that his majesty had been challenged.
Since you also want to be eaten.
Then I will fulfill you.
Li Duoyu took out the tongs, opened them, and went to the crevice of the reef, and lifted the money eel and the octopus bitten by it onto the small sand next to the reef.
For all marine fish, even if you are a dragon in the sea, as long as you are on land, you are all worms.
After arriving on land.
Only then did Qian Eel realize that something was wrong, gave up the octopus in his mouth, and planned to escape.
It's a pity it's too late.
It didn't expect that this human being would be so disrespectful of martial arts.
The shovel in Li Duoyu's hand had already slapped down on its head.
"Pong pong" a few times.
The dying Qian eel flipped around in pain a few times, and directly curled up in a ball, no longer moving.
Seeing that it was no longer moving, Li Duoyu threw it into the bucket, and he did it for a reason, his iron bucket did not have a cover.
And this slippery money eel, if you don't shoot it half to death, might jump up and take a bite of your bucket hand.
That's what makes it more than worth the loss.
Li Duoyu flipped over again, and the red octopus whose head was bitten by the money eel for most of its head, but was still desperately crawling towards the cave.
There are many species of octopus on Tantan Island.
It is the most unpalatable of this kind of red chapter, there are many suckers, and the firewood is hard and hard, and it is difficult to taste in stir-frying, just like sea urchin and anemone, it can't be put on the table.
However, the dying puppy shark was good, seven or eight pounds, and Li Duoyu held its tail and threw it into the iron bucket.
Look at the full iron buckets.
Li Duoyu is quite satisfied, and I don't know how long it has been since I had this kind of refreshing feeling of bursting the barrel.
Wait until he gets back to shore.
Zhou Xiaoying's nervous face eased instantly.
Little Fat Dun looked at a bucket of goods, and his eyes straightened on the spot: "There are small sharks, and moray eels, and they have dug so many pen holders." ”
The third aunt who just came up from the beach.
After seeing Li Duoyu catch so many seafood, he was also a little envious: "Duoyu, can you sell me those two dog sharks and moray eels, I am going to make some fish balls to eat." ”
Li Duoyu was still having a headache.
How to make these two things delicious, but the third aunt's reminder directly made him suddenly, authentic fish balls are made of the meat of dog sharks and moray eels.
"Auntie, I'm also going to make fish balls, or I'll give you some after I'm done."
"Ah, that's embarrassing."
"Relatives, don't be so polite."
"Then I'm welcome, when it's done, tell me I'll go over and get it."
Among all the relatives, the third aunt's family is considered good, and after he had an accident in his previous life, the third aunt's family also entered one, but because of the thick foundation, it was not affected much.
Later, I heard Zhou Xiaoying say that during the time he went to the island country, the third aunt's family also helped her a lot, which allowed her to survive that difficult period.
