Thinking that the afternoon’s harvest was not as good as that in the morning when the tide just receded, Chen Weiqiang planned to go back to the store.

A lot of express deliveries just arrived at the courier point, and Yan Shuting also has to go and sort them out.

As for Grandpa Chen and Grandma Chen, they still have 200 free-range chickens and a shrimp pond to take care of in the orchard, so they don't have time to go fishing.

So Chen Zhiyao was the only one left to go fishing in the afternoon.

Chen Zhiyao had just finished lunch and had no time to rest. She hurriedly put a handful of ropes for tying crabs into the bucket.

Crabs love to fight. If they are not tied up and have their limbs missing, their price will be greatly reduced.

In addition to the ropes, there are two net bags and a large brown hemp sack.

After packing her things, Chen Zhiyao excitedly drove her family's tricycle to the village dock.

When she came over, she looked towards the rocky beach and saw that there were indeed a lot of people, several times more than in the morning.

There are so many there, and even if there are good things, you may not be able to grab them. If you spread it out, I guess you won’t get as much as if you went to the beach to catch seafood.

She won't go over there to join in the fun.

Thinking that the car might slip on the mudflat, Chen Zhiyao parked the tricycle near the pier.

I just parked the car and looked towards the beach, and sure enough, there were a lot fewer people there.

Seeing the nice scenery, Chen Zhiyao took out her mobile phone and took a few photos of the beach.

"Yes, blue sky and white clouds, any one of them can be used as wallpaper."

White Sand Beach

Wearing gloves, Chen Zhiyao carried the bucket in one hand and the tongs in the other, and walked towards the mudflat ahead with cheerful steps.

Dear little money, here I come!!

The mudflats here are not the kind of rotten mud that would sink you into once you stepped on it. Instead, there is only a thin layer of black mud on the surface, with sand underneath and large and small reefs hidden in it.

There are usually a lot of oysters or barnacles on the reefs. Their shells are very sharp. Be sure to wear thick-soled shoes when walking, otherwise you will easily get cut.

If someone dares to go to the sea barefoot, Chen Zhiyao can only admire him as a hero.

Although the scenery on the mudflat is different from that on the white sand beach, it is equally beautiful. Chen Zhiyao took another beautiful photo.

泥滩

I thought that I haven’t posted anything about catching seafood on WeChat Moments since I came back, so I might as well post it to tempt my friends who are still working as office workers.

After sending out the beautiful pictures she had just taken and her own beautiful photos, Chen Zhiyao put away her phone and started to go fishing seriously.

Without the ability of perspective, she could only look around and carefully watch every inch of the ground under her feet.

Suddenly, there seemed to be a slight fluctuation in the small puddle next to a reef.

When I walked over to take a look, I saw shallow ripples on the water above the puddle, followed by a small bubble popping up.

Upon closer inspection, I saw that it was a large crab lying quietly in the puddle. It did not move at all, and only had a pair of eyes exposed.

Guess where the eyes are?

The crab had almost blended into the mud below, and if it hadn't been for the bubbles that appeared, she would have almost missed it.

Chen Zhiyao simply used the universal clips in her hand to pick up the well-disguised big guy.

It was covered in mud, and she couldn't tell what kind of crab it was.

There happened to be a small puddle nearby, so Chen Zhiyao put the creature in there and gave it a bath. Then its original appearance was revealed, a large blue crab with a green body.

Big crab

Chen Zhiyao picked it up with a smile and weighed it; it was quite heavy.

"I just came here and found a big blue crab weighing 70-80 taels. It seems I'm lucky today."

As he said this, he took out a crab tie from the bucket and tied up the arrogant big guy with ease.

After putting the guy into the bucket, Chen Zhiyao hummed a happy tune, picked up the small blue bucket, and continued walking forward.

After taking just two steps, I saw a long crack at my feet.

Chen Zhiyao thought it was a giant clam, so she reached out to grab it, but she couldn't pull it out. The texture was also not right, and it was flat, a bit like a scallop.

Holding a small shovel, Chen Zhiyao dug out the big guy in no time. It turned out to be a clam as big as her palm.

tape

Scallops are produced in abundance in the coastal areas of Guangdong and Hainan, and after being dried they become dried scallops.

However, the price of fresh scallops is not high, small ones are seven or eight yuan each, and large ones are more than ten yuan each, but these are market prices.

If you take it to a purchasing point, the price is only half of that. One as big as hers would only cost five or six yuan at most.

Although this thing is not expensive, it is very delicious when used to steam noodles.

Chen Zhiyao felt a little greedy when she thought of steamed vermicelli with scallops.

Throwing the big thing in her hand into the bucket, Chen Zhiyao began looking around for scallops, intending to find a few more to steam and eat with vermicelli in the evening.

Chen Zhiyao, who was happily digging tapeworms, had completely forgotten that she came here to dig sandworms.

However, these shellfish generally like to live in groups. When I looked up, I saw another string clam with its mouth open two steps ahead.

Another belt

After digging up several clams in a row, Chen Zhiyao suddenly realized that she came here to look for sandworms.

After walking about 10 meters forward, I saw that the ground under my feet had been dug into potholes.

In front of us was a woman wearing a straw hat who was digging sandworms. She moved very quickly and in just a few strokes she dug out a pink and tender sandworm that was still wriggling.

The basket behind him was already half full of plump sandworms, which looked to weigh about seven or eight kilograms.

The woman turned around and it turned out to be an old acquaintance. Chen Zhiyao walked up to her and greeted her obediently.

"Aunt, I came here to dig sandworms again today. It looks like the harvest is good."

This person is Huang Yufen, the wife of Chen Weiqiang’s eldest brother. She is an expert in digging sandworms in the village and can make a lot of money every year by digging sandworms.

Although her uncle and his father have separated, the two brothers have always had a good relationship. Her aunt even taught her how to dig sandworms.

However, Chen Zhiyao did not have any talent in this area. Every time she came to dig sandworms, she could only dig up a few, and never more than 10.

If she hadn't thought about cheating by using the X-ray glasses, she would rather go to the beach to catch seafood than come here to dig sandworms.

"The tide is out today, so the harvest is pretty good. Take some sandworms back to make porridge."

As the enthusiastic aunt spoke, she grabbed a handful of sandworms and put them into the bucket in her hand.

Chen Zhiyao quickly held down her aunt's hand and said, "No, no, I'm here to dig sandworms as well."

These sandworms cost 70 yuan per pound. When the price is good, they can be sold for yuan per pound. She was embarrassed to accept such an expensive thing.

Most of the people in the village who go to the sea to catch some worthless shellfish actually sell the expensive good ones because they usually don't want to eat them themselves.

The tanned aunt pretended to be angry and said, "You kid, this is to nourish your grandparents."

After hearing this, Chen Zhiyao couldn't refuse, after all, she was filial to her parents-in-law.

The aunt directly put two handfuls of sandworms into Chen Zhiyao's bucket, which was enough to cook porridge for a family of five.
