Chapter 16 Large pieces of dragon mustard vegetables
The boat carried two people and the speed was very slow.
The octopus clone swayed behind the fishing boat, and several tentacles swam in turn, without feeling tired at all.
"Brother Xuan, it's here. I met that group of white-gu fish here before." Soon, Wang Lei stood up and said.
Li Xuan nodded. His octopus clone looked around the water and did not find the group of white-gu fish. Instead, he found some other things. A group of sling crabs that were slightly smaller than their fists were passing through the seabed. There was already meat in the shell of this type of sling crab. It would cost at least a few dozen yuan per person to eat in the hotel, and it looked like seven or eight. If you go to the sea to catch it, it would be considered an unexpected income.
Li Xuan took off his coat and said, "It seems that he didn't see Bai Guyu, why don't I go under the water and take a look."
Wang Lei nodded and didn't say anything about being careful. Although drowning people are all watery, they all grew up by the beach and have excellent water quality. Not to mention Li Xuan, Wang Lei himself often dives into the water.
When he reached the bottom of the sea, Li Xuan swam straight to the swift crabs, and the octopus clones also took action together. With a few tentacles, he caught all the swift crabs.
Li Xuan put all these swift crabs into the net bag at his waist, which is a bag-like thing made of thin rope. It can be stuffed with up to 30 to 40 kilograms of fishing catch, which is very suitable for diving.
After doing all this, Li Xuan couldn't hold his breath anymore, so he hurriedly swam up the water.
When Wang Lei saw Li Xuan floating on the surface, he quickly reached out and pulled Li Xuan to the board, and asked with anticipation: "Brother Xuan, have you seen those white-gu fish?"
"Hey, your net bag?" As he was speaking, Wang Lei's eyes suddenly condensed and landed on the net bag around Li Xuan's waist.
Li Xuan had just come up from underwater and was exhausted a lot of energy. He gasped and said, "I didn't see those white-gu fish. Maybe they were migrating when you saw them, and they have already wandered around now. But I happened to encounter a group of swift crabs, who were not small in size, so I caught a few of them up."
Wang Lei looked at Li Xuan enviously, "These swift crabs are almost as big as fists, and they can be sold for twenty yuan each."
Li Xuan nodded. If this kind of swift crab is sent to the seafood purchase boat in the town, it will be sold for twenty yuan each.
Wang Lei was a little moved, and he asked Li Xuan: "Brother Xuan, are you still going down?"
Li Xuan shook his head, "If you can't go down, it's important to find Baigu fish. If Baigu fish migrate in this season, they will definitely swim north. If they can't swim quickly, our boat will drive a little further north."
"Okay." Wang Lei agreed and hurriedly drove the boat.
The octopus clone followed the boat all the way. This was the first time Li Xuan looked at the rolling underwater world for such a long distance. He found that the depths of the seabed were very similar to land. Although the sea surface was exactly the same sea water, there were raised mountains, valleys, deep grooves, and a large number of marine plants at the bottom of the sea.
Among them, Li Xuan saw a large number of dragon beard and sea stone flowers. These two types of marine plants are not valuable marine plants, but they cannot hold up to a large amount. Li Xuan saw that these two marine plants covered the seabed of dozens of acres in a certain sea area. If all of them were collected, there might be tens of thousands of kilograms.
"Brother Xuan, I guess we can't find those white-gu fish. If the boat drives north, it will be to Longmen Town. You have just caught a few swift crabs. Do you want to deal with them in the town?" Wang Lei said suddenly.
"Huh?" Li Xuan raised his head and found that at the distance between the sea and the sky, you could see the outlines of several large ships in a hazy way.
Li Xuan pondered for a moment and said, "Let's dock further north, why don't we go into the sea to take a look here."
With the eyes of the octopus clone, Li Xuan certainly knew that the white-gu fish had not swam into this sea area, but there were a large number of dragon beard vegetables under this sea area. If they could be collected all of them, it would be a huge sum of money.
It takes too much time to collect those stone cauliflower and dragon beard vegetables. The range of dozens of acres cannot be collected by one person in a short time. Moreover, as long as the collection starts, it is impossible to hide it from the people in Longmen Town. Li Xuan, who has an octopus clone, is too lazy to spend this effort. As the saying goes, the fat water will not flow to outsiders' fields, Li Xuan intends to make money from the villagers.
"Okay, go down and have a look." Wang Lei was a little absent-minded. His luck was so bad today. He didn't even get anything after going to sea, but the fishing net was broken. Now he was thinking about how to get a job with his family when he went back.
Wang Lei took off his coat and said, "Brother Xuan, let me go down this time, you can wait on the boat."
Li Xuan smiled and said, "My clothes are already wet anyway, so I'll go with you."
The two went down to the bottom of the sea and sank all the way.
Wang Lei, who was originally absent-minded, suddenly found something at the bottom of the sea, and he seemed to be very familiar with him. He quickly looked at it carefully. After looking at it carefully, he was surprised that the dragon beard was actually the dragon beard. The large area nearby was covered with dragon beard. He quickly pulled Li Xuan's arm and danced with joy.
Li Xuan naturally knew why Wang Lei was excited, but he pretended not to know and looked at Wang Lei with a puzzled look.
At this time, Wang Lei couldn't hold back his breath because of his violent movements. He quickly pulled Li Xuan, pointed his other finger at the water, indicating that he had something to say and then go to the water surface first.
When the two arrived on the water, Wang Lei slapped the water excitedly and said excitedly: "Brother Xuan, I sent it, we sent it, guess what I just saw from under the water?"
"What?" Li Xuan asked with a smile.
"It's a dragon beard." Wang Lei said excitedly.
Li Xuan pretended not to understand and said, "Isn't the purchase price of dragon beard vegetables only two yuan per pound?"
"No, that was slaughtered by a purchase ship. The dragon bearded vegetables can be sold for thirty or forty yuan per catty after being made into cold dishes. I have been making braised dishes for several years. No one knows dragon bearded vegetables better than me. Even if they are not made into cold dishes, I also know that a place can receive six or seven yuan per catty. And Brother Xuan, do you know how many dragon bearded vegetables are underneath?"
"Like rice fields, you can't see the edge of the dragon beard vegetables at first glance." Wang Lei said excitedly.
Li Xuan pointed to the edge of the beach and said, "Don't be excited for now. The distance here is too close to Longmen Town. We can't hide the fishermen in Longmen Town from salvaged dragon beards here. At that time, everyone rushed over. Even if there are a lot of dragon beards below, I will only have two people and I, how many can I catch?"
When Wang Lei heard this, he was anxious, "Brother Xuan, what should I do?"
Li Xuan smiled and said, "We can't catch all the two of us, so we can ask the villagers to help us. Didn't you say that you have a way to sell dragon beard vegetables for six or seven yuan per pound? We asked Village Chief Zhao to mobilize villagers to come and salvage them together. At that time, you will collect the dragon beard vegetables salvaged by the villagers at a price of three yuan per pound. You will earn three or four yuan per pound for every pound, and everyone of the villagers will make some money. Isn't that good?"
