Ling Xue was not interested in the oysters, conchs and Buddha's hands growing on the reefs, but she treasured the stones.
People who have lived inland for a long time have never seen such a scene. When traveling, they feel like they have won the lottery if they can find one or two oysters. But now, seeing the densely packed oysters, Shitou ignored everything else and focused his attention on the oysters.
“Wow—that’s a lot of oysters!”
Shitou used to often go to a nearby barbecue restaurant to eat barbecue. He couldn't afford seafood like oysters, so he could spend a wonderful evening with a few skewers of barbecued meat, a plate of vegetarian dishes and beer.
Now that he saw the oysters that he had never thought of before placed in front of him, he couldn't help it anyway, and he didn't want to resist at all.
Ling Xue didn't care what kind of seafood Shitou wanted to collect. It was his business and the harvest belonged to him.
These oysters grow here and humans are not seen all year round, so they grow very large. Many of them are as big as an adult's palm. No wonder Shi Tou, who has never seen them, is so surprised.
Shitou was concentrating on prying the oysters, using all his concentration. The fat conchs next to him and the various crabs swimming under his feet did not attract Shitou's interest at all.
He couldn't care less about much else anyway, he was only interested in oysters at the moment.
Not to mention the fact that the value of other seafood far exceeds that of oysters, but in the end, money can't buy what I want, and there's nothing I can do about it.
While Shitou was sweating profusely as he pried oysters, Ling Xue started picking up the fat and tender chicken of the sea. She was a person who did what she wanted and would collect whatever seafood she liked, all according to her own preferences.
The willful duo had no time to chat or drink water, as they were busy with their own things. By the time the tide went out, they had reaped a lot of rewards.
Why is it considered a bountiful harvest? It's because their harvest was rather limited. Ling Xue and Shitou were both willful individuals, each of them only picking what they were interested in, which resulted in a limited variety.
On the way back, Shitou enthusiastically suggested to Ling Xue, "Sister Ling, there are so many good things here. I feel like I missed out on a hundred million before."
Ling Xue also thought so: "Yeah, I was so focused on farming and making gold coins some time ago that I really ignored the various seafood at the beach. I kind of regret it!"
Shitou comforted him, "The seafood is all from your own safe island. Sooner or later you will get it into your hands. But the other things are not. It's better to get the good stuff from outside first. You can get it later!"
Ling Xue agreed, "Yes, we'll plan to earn gold coins in the ocean after your sister Lan and brother Li come over. Over the next few days, we'll focus on the good stuff in the reef area. At least we can explore the way first. When they arrive, you'll have something to talk about."
Shitou was also very excited when he thought about talking to Sister Lan and Brother Li and teaching them his experience. "Of course, when the time comes, I will definitely share all my experience with them without holding anything back."
"Well, you're very good!" Ling Xue knew what Shi Tou meant at a glance. Looking at his happy expression, he must be preparing to make a splash when Lan Huahua and Li Mu come!
When they returned to the safe house, Shitou also returned to his own cabin.
He did not go into the cabin, but poured out all the oysters in the open space in front of the cabin.
Oh my god, look at that pile of top-quality oysters, it’s like a mountain of oysters!
Shitou starts to peel the oyster meat, which can be made into cooked food after processing. When it is inconvenient to cook, you can take it out and eat it directly.
Oysters can be eaten raw, but as an inland man, he doesn't like this way of eating. He always eats meat until it's cooked through, including steak.
