Golden Fishery
123. Big apple snail
ps: Read the exclusive story behind "Golden Fishing Ground", listen to your more suggestions for the novel, pay attention to the official account of Qidian Chinese website (add friends on WeChat-add official account-enter qdread), and tell me quietly! The sun is hot and the umbrellas provide shade, but the heat rises from the beach, so if there is no sea breeze, basking in the sun on the beach is similar to taking a sauna.
Fortunately, the sea breeze has been blowing slowly, carrying hot and humid water vapor, Qin Shiou quickly fell asleep.
Xiong huddled on the side of the recliner, and it got into Qin Shiou's arms as soon as it found Iverson's arrival. Qin Shiou thought it was too hot, so he opened half of the recliner, which meant that his recliner had a large area. It's the same as a small bed, otherwise it's really hard to sleep one person and one bear.
Behind him, Qin Shiou was awakened by the chirping of birds. He opened his eyes and saw two large snow-white birds circling and singing on the sea not far away.
These two big birds are very beautiful. They are about half a meter long. Their feathers are white and their beaks are light blue. Their open wings are like two sails. Like a knight of the sea.
The first time Qin Shiou saw this kind of seabird on Farewell Island, he thought it was a swan at first. When they landed on the beach to rest and saw their red claws, he suddenly realized that they were red-footed boobies.
After landing on the sand,
The two big birds tucked their heads between their shoulders, snuggled up to each other and combed their feathers.
Obviously, this is not the first time Iverson has seen red-footed boobies. He stood up excitedly after playing in the sand before, and shouted: "Catch them, this bird is delicious!"
The two birds are very vigilant. When Ivorson gave a strange cry, they turned their heads in shock, flapped their wings and flew into the air like two sharp arrows.
Qin Shiou rolled his eyes helplessly, was it in Iwosen's heart. There are only two kinds of things in the world, one is edible and the other is inedible?
But he took a look at the position of the parasol, and was a little moved again. Compared with when he started to sleep, the position of the parasol moved a lot to the west.
Look at the umbrella marks left on the beach. The parasol had been moved five or six times in the past two hours. There was no doubt that it was all done by Ivorson. The sun was slanting to the west, and the parasol could not block the sun. Iverson quietly moved the parasol so that he always slept in the shadows.
Qin Shiou got up and went to the kitchen to find some cakes for Iverson. Iverson smiled happily and wolfed down half a piece of cake.
Huzi and Leopard licked their tongues and looked longingly at the golden cream cake in Iverson's hand, and kept hopping beside them.
But Iwassen's protection of food was higher than that of beasts, he didn't even look at the two greedy drooling puppies, and only cared about eating Hesse himself.
Seeing that there was no chance, Huzi and Leopard left the living room unhappy. After going out, he soon became happy again, running around and chasing each other.
Shaq and sea monsters who went out to cruise came back talking and laughing. Qin Shiou called them to go to Shenbao Lake to touch snails together, but seeing that it was not long before the children finished school, he simply waited until they went home to go together.
At 3:20, the big-nosed school bus passed the gate of the fishing ground on time, and Boris and Shirley ran in.
Qin Shiou went up to greet them and asked, "Did you enjoy your time at school today?"
"Very happy." Shirley said crisply.
Qin Shiou nodded in satisfaction. I bumped fists with them one by one, and said: "I just started school. You may not be used to that kind of environment, and you have to work hard to adapt to school life. Okay?"
The four children nodded along, like a group of chickens pounding rice.
With all the people gathered in this way, Qin Shiou and the sea monster each drove a car towards Shenbao Lake.
Looking at the pickup truck behind him, Qin Shiou felt that he had to buy a car with more capacity. Anyway, he was about to go to St. John's to test his driver's license, so he should buy a commercial vehicle or a minibus by the way.
When he arrived at Shenbao Lake, Iverson jumped out of the pickup truck first. He took off his shoes and sat down on a rock by the lake. Then he put his feet in the lake water and started running comfortably.
Qin Shiou called him over, first went into the water to touch a water snail, showed him clearly, and said, "Go into the water, touch this, you know?"
Iverson blinked, turned his head and ran to the rock he was sitting on earlier, Qin Shiou was about to worry about his IQ, but the giant went into the water and moved the stone to the river bank.
The strip of bluestone weighed at least one hundred and eighty kilograms, but Iverson lifted it up easily, and Shaq and the sea monster couldn't stop talking.
"This?" Iwosen asked Qin Shiou, tilting his head.
Freshwater snails generally live on the banks of rivers or lakes, and they especially like to attach to stones. Qin Shiou went over and saw that there were a lot of large and small snails lying on the waterline of this stone.
These snails were quite big, the ones the size of the belly of a thumb were considered little ones, and the biggest one was as big as a peach, which made Qin Shiou stare.
Holding the big peach-sized snail, Qin Shiou studied it. There is no doubt that these are not the kind of Chinese snails he used to eat in his hometown. Even if they eat feed, they can't grow this size.
Looking at the dark brown snail shell, Qin Shiou scratched his head and asked, "Is this a blessing snail?"
He didn't know how to translate the golden apple snail, so he asked in Mandarin. He had seen this kind of big snail before when he was in Haidao City. It looked very similar, but the shell was light yellow.
Naturally, Shaq and Sea Monster couldn't understand Mandarin. Shaq said: "This is -apple-, a big apple snail. It doesn't taste good at all, it's very fishy. We usually sell it after catching it in September and October. to the feed mill."
Qin Shiou didn't quite understand, and he didn't know whether the snails could be eaten, so he had to rely on the almighty Google—Baidu in the past, but now he came to Canada, he found that Google was more omnipotent than Baidu, and quickly abandoned the old tradition. Nasty foreign devils.
After Google, Qin Shiou figured out that this thing is indeed called a big apple snail, but he didn't admit it wrong just now. In China, especially Baodao Wanwan, the name of the big apple snail is the golden apple snail.
Although this kind of snail is big, it is actually not very tasty, especially with Chinese cooking method, the snail meat is very difficult to taste.
But there is no choice. There is only this kind of freshwater snail in eastern Canada, and there is no shadow of the Chinese snail in China.
Fortunately, Qin Shiou had never eaten this kind of snail before, so he thought it would be good to try something new, so he went into the water to fish it with great interest.
The four of Boris are more proficient at this job than he is, because when they were wandering in the past, they often touched this kind of water snails in rivers and lakes and cooked them. It is true that the taste is terrible, but for them who are hungry, it is good to have something to eat.
Except for September and October, almost no one comes here to touch the big apple snails, which leads to various accumulations of these snails on the shore of the lake.
The ones Qin Shiou selected were all above the size of the belly of a thumb, and the eight of them worked together, and quickly found a lot of them.
Touching the water snail, Iverson suddenly punched the water hard with quick eyes and hands, and the water splashed everywhere. As a result, a 30 cm long largemouth bass floated up with its white belly turned over.
Qin Shiou laughed, Moluoshun caught a fish with him, good luck. However, Iverson was also fierce enough to knock out fish in the water. This was the first time Qin Shiou saw someone who could catch fish with brute force.
When he came here, Qin Shiou brought a plastic basin. He didn't expect to be able to touch so much. It's not easy to waste it now, so he used the plastic basin to put it in the car bucket. Anyway, Shaq cleaned the car every day.
After weighing about forty or fifty catties, Qin Shiou stopped and drove back.
Scattering the big apple snails into the basin, Shaq found Qin Shiou and said, "If you like to eat snails, then we can go to the sea to get some snails."
"Eluo?" Qin Shiou asked back. (It’s a great event to drop pie in the sky, cool mobile phones are waiting for you!
