Li Heng followed the growth path of the kelp and harvested it all the way forward.

Until all the kelp in the nearby waters is collected in the ring.

After a rough estimate, even if there are not a thousand, there are at least eight hundred, which is enough to eat for a while.

In the following time, Li Heng finally turned his attention to the surrounding fish schools.

For him, kelp is just a pleasant surprise, fishing is the most important thing.

There are many kinds of fish living in the shallow sea, but Li Heng can only recognize a few of them.

For example, what just swam past him was a group of big yellow croakers.

This fish has a very strange characteristic, which is that the color of its body surface can change.

Although they are silvery white now, they will turn golden yellow at night.

The reason why Li Heng had a deep impression of yellow croaker was mainly because of the word "expensive".

As a chef in his previous life, he inevitably had to deal with various ingredients.

In his previous simple understanding, when he mentioned more expensive seafood, he might think of king crabs or various types of large lobsters.

The price was several hundred yuan per kilogram, which was something Li Heng would never consume with his meager salary at the time.

Until one day, by chance, he saw a news report about yellow croaker.

A fisherman caught a large yellow croaker weighing more than 60 kilograms from the sea. After he came ashore, before he even walked out of the dock, it was bought by a rich man for two million yuan.

If converted, it is about 20,000 yuan per kilogram. After reading this news, Li Heng instinctively thought it was fake.

Two million just to buy a fish? Could it be that eating it can prolong life, or have some other effects?

Driven by curiosity, he searched online to find out why yellow croaker is so expensive.

Later I found out that it was caused by overfishing. In layman's terms, it is said that scarcity makes things valuable.

Apart from the special circumstances mentioned above, the price of ordinary wild yellow croaker is indeed not that exaggerated.

It usually depends on the size. One weighing a few taels usually costs around one or two hundred yuan, while one weighing a few kilograms will cost thousands of yuan.

By analogy, the larger the size, the higher the unit price.

"Hey, look at my luck!"

Li Heng stared at the large school of yellow croakers so close to him, his eyes shining.

The yellow croakers in front of us, the smallest of which weighs more than one kilogram, and the size of the school of fish is at least thousands of them.

Is that a fish? No, it's a pile of banknotes, waving at him!

"Let me do the math! This one is three thousand, that one is ten thousand, twenty thousand, fifty thousand..."

Li Heng's excitement did not last long, because this was the Xuanwu Continent, and these big yellow croakers were not even first-level spiritual beasts.

Even if you sell it, you won't get a good price.

"Alas~ What a pity!"

Although Li Heng said it was a pity, he had no intention of letting these big yellow croakers go.

He must taste it carefully to see what is so special about this fish.

Li Heng started his first underwater fishing operation immediately.

In order to quietly approach the school of fish, Li Heng was extremely careful in every move he made, for fear of disturbing them.

Yellow croakers are particularly sensitive to sound but have poor eyesight, so if Li Heng wants to catch more fish, he has to get closer.

When it comes to fishing, the first thing that most people think of is definitely using a fishing net.

Li Heng didn't have a fishing net, but he could use his culinary power to weave one.

The next process is very easy. First, place the fishing net in the appropriate position, and then collect the net.

A few minutes later, Li Heng surfaced and dragged hundreds of fish he had caught back to shore.

"What a mistake! I should have found the two little ones and retrieved the beast bag before going into the sea."

Li Heng murmured. As soon as he appeared, he attracted the attention of the disciples on the shore, and soon someone came to help him.

Although these several hundred kilograms were no problem for him, the disciples guarding the shore still took over the work in his hands.

"Master Li Feng, you have worked hard! Just leave this small matter to us."

"As expected of Master Li Feng! Just a casual move can yield such a huge harvest."

Several disciples surrounded Li Heng, talking and laughing.

"Your flattery is too blunt!"

Li Heng, who was in a good mood, also played a joke on them. As for why Li Heng was happy, it was naturally because he was happy about the harvest.

"Hehe, thank you for the reminder, Peak Master. Next time, I will definitely take pictures without leaving any traces."

The disciple who was teased by Li Heng patted his chest and assured.

"Oh right! Have you guys seen those two girls, Xiao Xiao and Xiao Chi?"

All the disciples shook their heads in unison, indicating that they had not seen the two little ones while Li Heng was away.

"It's no use just waiting like this. Help me get some sea water and raise these fish first. I plan to go down and take a look again."

After thinking for a moment, Li Heng took out a few empty water jars from his ring, handed them to several disciples and gave them instructions.

These disciples completed the tasks assigned by Li Heng without saying a word.

After a short rest, Li Heng dived into the sea again. This time he chose a new location, hoping to have new gains.

His luck was good again this time. The seabed here was covered with corals, colorful and dazzling.

There are all kinds of shapes, and each one is like a work of art, so beautiful that it is beyond words.

"Tsk, tsk, is this the coral reef known as the 'underwater rainforest'? It really is something interesting."

This time, Li Heng was completely shocked by the wonders of nature. He couldn't help but take out the photo stone he used for teaching and record everything in front of him.

After enjoying the wonders before your eyes, life must go on. The ingredients will not come to you on their own, you have to rely on yourself.

Li Heng searched slowly along the coral reef and soon made a new discovery.

A big fish, about one foot long, appeared in his sight.

The back of this fish is brown, the belly is light brown, and there are orange and yellow spots scattered all over the body. Judging from its appearance, it should be a grouper.

Unlike yellow croaker, grouper is a solitary creature, so it is rare to see them in groups.

Catching a fish is much easier than catching a group of fish. With almost no effort, Li Heng caught the passing grouper.

Since he could find one, he could surely find more. With this idea in mind, Li Heng continued searching the nearby waters for dozens of minutes.

In the end, more than ten groupers were harvested.

In order to make it easier to carry, Li Heng had to use a thin rope to string them together like gourds and carried them back to the shore.

"Brother Li Heng, you are so slow! We have been waiting for you for a long time!"

As soon as he returned to the shore, the voices of the two little ones reached his ears.

"Why are you waiting for me? I don't have time to make snacks for you. If you're hungry, just grill two fish for yourself!"

Li Heng habitually thought that the two kids were just asking him for delicious food.
