Sea-hunting system: I became rich by fishing at sea
Chapter 161: The Tide
Low tide
The sea water receded very quickly during high tide. When Chen Zhiyao's family of four went to the island carrying their fishing tools, the sea water on the beach had already receded a lot.
This time, Chen Zhiyao and her companions learned their lesson and each of them dragged a small cart with buckets and other tools for fishing on it.
Yan Shuting knew that there was a large white sand beach on Dolphin Island, so she brought a sand rake with her when she went out.
This small sand rake is specially used for digging small shells and is a common tool for going to the beach.
Chen Zhiyao originally thought that this thing would be useless, but she didn't expect that after just taking a few steps, she saw a large group of snails where the sea water had just receded.
(There are pictures below, please note if you have trypophobia.)
In addition to this layer on the surface, with the help of the X-ray glasses, she also saw a lot of snails under the sand.
The sand rake my mother brought came in handy.

Although the price of snails is not high, their quantity is huge.
The four of them quickly put down the carts in their hands, and each of them picked up a bucket and quickly put all the delicious little snails into their pockets.
In addition to snails, there are also a small amount of clams and white clams.
There is strength in numbers. In less than 10 minutes, a large number of snails were picked up and put into the bucket by the four people.
However, although the sand on the surface has been picked up, there is still a lot of sand under the sand, so this is when a sand rake is needed.
rake
Just rake the sand twice and you will get several long and thin snails.
Yan Shuting used a sand rake to rake the sand, while Chen Weiqiang stood beside her picking up snails. The two of them cooperated very well and picked up a large handful in a short while.
"Tangtang, these snails take up too much space. Let's put them here first."
As he said that, Grandpa Chen took out a sack and poured all the snails into it.
Seeing this, Chen Zhiyao also poured half a bucket of snails into the sack, filling up exactly half the sack.
The grandfather and grandson soaked the snails in the sack in sea water, and then continued to move forward dragging the cart.
Chen Weiqiang and his wife continued to dig snails here.
After walking for a while, the grandfather and grandson found a small patch of shishi beets.
It doesn't seem accurate to say that they are Xishi clams, as there are also quite a few white and plump moon clams mixed in.
The sea water had just receded, and before these small shells had a chance to lie on the sand, they had the misfortune to run into the grandfather and grandson.
Grandpa Chen walked forward with a smile on his face, and was just about to pick up shells when his granddaughter pulled him forward.
"Grandpa, the tide is out today. There must be a lot of good stuff on the reef beach ahead. Don't waste time here."
"Leave these shishi mussels to my parents to pick up later. They have sand rakes, so it will be more convenient for them to dig."
"You are still smart, little girl."
Grandpa Chen turned around and called out to his son and daughter-in-law:
"Qiangzi, Shuting, there is a patch of shishi clams and moon clams over here. After you finish digging for snails, pick them up as well. Tangtang and I will go to the rocky beach in front first."
Chen Wei raised his head and responded, "Okay, let's split up and meet up at the reef beach later."
"Pay attention to the time. We need to come here before the tide completely recedes."
Several people agreed to go to the mysterious cave they had visited before. Grandpa Chen was afraid that his son would forget the time, so he mentioned it again.
"I know. Your son, I have a good memory."
It was a low tide today, and many small seafoods were washed onto the beach by the rapidly receding tide.
When they reached the rocky beach, there were several octopuses and various other small seafood in Chen Zhiyao's bucket.
The cart couldn't pass the rocky beach ahead, so the grandfather and grandson put it in a place where it wouldn't be flooded even at high tide.
It's a good time to run seafood when I go back.
Then the two of them carried buckets and walked towards the rocky beach excitedly.
Chen Zhiyao walked about 10 meters and saw some small round stones like flower rain stones on a small coral reef.
However, these round little stones are not real stones, but a kind of snail called the piglet snail.
Piglet Snail
The scientific name of the piglet snail is purple snail, which is also a traditional Chinese medicine with the effects of calming the liver, improving eyesight, and calming the nerves.
These piglet snails are very good at hiding. Almost all of them hide in the cracks of coral reefs or rocks, and they can be missed if you are not careful.
But since she had her X-ray glasses, she could see accurately and found a large bunch of snails in no time.
Piglet Snail+10
In addition to the pig snails, she also found two red flower crabs eating breakfast in this coral reef.
These two big red guys are very large, weighing almost one kilogram each.
A giant red flower crab like this can be sold for more than 80 yuan per pound.
In addition to this big guy, Chen Zhiyao also snatched two small fish from the crab's mouth.
These two are small black sea breams weighing about half a pound. Although they have died, their gills are still bright red, which means they must have just died.
Red Flower Crab +2
Black porgy +2
Dead sea fish like this usually can't be sold at a high price, and if you come across one, you basically keep it for your own consumption.
Having just harvested two giant red flower crabs, Chen Zhiyao, in a good mood, continued to move forward.
Soon, we came across a nest of large yellow-mouthed snails on a big rock.
The meat of this spicy snail is yellow, and its texture and taste are better than ordinary spicy snails, and the price is also more expensive.
The huge rocks are covered with giant snails that are bigger than thumbs.
Chen Zhiyao patiently picked up all the big ones and kept the small ones to continue reproducing.
In addition to the snails, there are also many yellow snail eggs on the rocks. These eggs will hatch into small snails in about two or three weeks.
These little snails reproduce very quickly, so there is never a shortage of them on the beach.
However, spicy snails are relatively cold and eating too much can cause diarrhea.
Therefore, many people in the village do not like to eat this kind of conch, and they usually sell it for money if they pick it up.
After walking a few steps, Chen Zhiyao found a pink sea bream in a crevice.
This guy was quite alert. As soon as he heard the noise, he immediately rushed deep into the crevice.
Chen Zhiyao used a universal clamp but still couldn't reach it, so she had to let it go for the time being.
But unexpectedly, as soon as I turned around, I found several long whiskers under a coral reef.
Seeing these long beards, Chen Zhiyao couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth wildly:
"The tide is different. You can encounter a little blue dragon right after arriving."
Under the coral reef are two colorful little green dragons.
Chen Zhiyao took one in each hand and quickly caught both little green dragons.
Little Blue Dragon+2
In addition to the small blue dragon, there are many other small seafood nearby. She is just like coming here to buy goods, and she keeps digging all kinds of good things into the bucket.
Octopus +3
Orchid Crab+2
Swimming Crab +3
Piglet Snail+6
……
There were quite a lot of small seafood on the coral reef side, and after a while, the bucket in her hand became much heavier.
After passing through the coral reef, Chen Zhiyao saw a large puddle in front of her where the tide had just receded.
“Lots of sea urchins.”
I saw a lot of small black balls on the left side of the puddle, probably at least 20 of them, and each one was very plump.
