Golden Fishing Village

In short, the shells of scavenger snails are a small treasure trove, and there is no telling what is buried inside.

Someone once caught a group of scavenger snails in the Indian Ocean. Their shells looked nothing special, but after cracking open the messy shells, they found gold coins inside!

The discoverer at the time began to search along the habitat of these scavenger snails, and finally found a shipwreck, which was once a legend in the history of ocean treasure hunting.

Ao Muyang did not expect to find ocean treasures, as long as there were a few pieces of red coral in the shells of these scavenger snails.

In this way, he sank to the bottom of the sea with a fishing net, wandered around for a while, and picked up more than 40 scavenger snails in total.

The camouflage of scavenger snails is too successful. After discovering a threat, they will immediately stop moving, because the shells are covered with reefs, seaweed, etc., and it is difficult to find them under normal circumstances.

It took Ao Muyang two hours to pick up these scavenging snails, and he knew that there must be scavenging snails in this sea area. This group is very good at hiding and it is not so easy to be caught in one net.

Of course, Ao Muyang did not mean to catch them all in one net. He never did such a thing.

Putting the conch on the boat, Ao Muyang floated under the sea.

The sun was hot in June, but he did not come out of the water. Instead, he soaked his body in the water, about half a meter deep from the sea surface. In this way, the sun shone down, and part of the heat was absorbed by the sea water, and it was very comfortable when it shone on him.

Floating leisurely in the water, Ao Muyang absorbed the water vapor and flowed with the waves.

Unknowingly, he had been back to the village for a year.

Staying in a place like a fishing village, time will pass slowly, the rhythm will slow down suddenly, giving people time to appreciate life.

Enjoying the warm sunshine and feeling the softness of the sea water, Ao Muyang couldn't help but sigh in his heart: I was so stupid at the beginning, I actually decided to go to the capital, it's better to stay in the village.

The sea fishing boat turned back, and Ao Muyang got on the boat and asked: "How is it, everyone, did you get anything?"

"Nothing." Ao Mudong was very frustrated.

Ao Mupeng said: "There is a fishing boat out to sea in front of the Gong family, but they didn't cast the net. I guess they plan to do it at night. It's useless to catch them now."

"If you ask me, it's useless for us to go out all day. Who commits crimes in the daytime? If you ask me, we should go to catch the boat at night, and we will definitely catch one."

Ao Qianlai shook his head like a rattle: "No, no, I want to sleep with my wife at night."

Ao Mudong laughed and said: "Uncle Qianlai, how do you sleep with my aunt? Tell us, what do you do together at night?"

Ao Qianlai was not stupid at this time. He glanced at Ao Mudong and said: "If you talk nonsense again, I will knock out half of your teeth!"

Ao Mudong didn't dare to joke anymore. Ao Qianlai kept his word. If he really wanted to knock out half of his teeth, he would definitely count the number of his teeth and then smash them down.

Ao Muyang said: "If you still want to go out to sea in the afternoon, then drive the boat yourself. I won't go out. Also, come to my place to drink in the evening. I got some scavenging snails today."

The snail meat of the scavenging snail is very delicious. It is so delicious when dipped in mustard sauce.

It is more tempting to give people the situation inside the shell. It is a bit like gambling on stones. No one knows what is wrapped in the big shell. You have to crack it open to find out.

Ao Muyang cracked the shell in the afternoon.

Before doing this, you have to deal with the snail meat inside first, because the shell is very hard, you have to knock it hard, otherwise it is easy to destroy the delicate snail meat.

It is cruel to cook scavenging snails. They have to be steamed alive.

Ao Muyang boiled water in a pot, put an iron plate in it, and put the conches on it one by one.

Forty-two conches were stacked in four layers. The shells of the scavenging snails are very large, and the smallest one is as big as an adult's fist.

Turn the fire down to low, and when the steam comes out of the steamer, turn off the fire. The steam can steam the snail meat.

The snail meat of the scavenger snail is very tender, which is its preciousness. If the steam is too hot, the snail meat will be steamed and become old, like rubber, and will not be delicious at all.

The snail shell is cold, Ao Muyang opened the whole body and hooked out the snail meat one by one with a hook.

The snail meat is not big, like jelly, and it will shrink into a ball under the stimulation of high temperature.

He took out the snail meat, removed the internal organs, and put it in the refrigerator. The rest of the time is to smash the snail shell.

At noon, Ao Fugui ran to watch the fun: "Yangzi, Dapeng said you got some scavenger snails? Come, I'll help you open the snail shell, I'm still a virgin, I'm lucky."

Opening the snail shell for the scavenger snail feels a bit like gambling, but it's still quite exciting.

Ao Muyang stopped him and said, "No need, I'm also a virgin, I'm just as lucky."

"Two virgins." Ao Fugui laughed, "It hurts, my friend."

The snail shell is hard, it's grown by the conch for a long time, it's not easy to handle.

Ao Muyang took a file, he had to file the shell first to see what's inside, this is similar to the principle of gambling on stones, when gambling on stones, you have to cut a layer of stone skin first, this is called 'opening a window'.

He quickly filed the shell, Ao Fugui sprinkled water on it, then shook his head: "Nothing."

Ao Muyang changed the hand grinder, plugged it in, and the grinder whistled. He held the hand grinder in the middle of the shell, and as the stone powder splashed, the shell was gradually split into two halves.

Nothing was found!

Ao Muyang raised it and looked at the sun, Ao Fugui said: "No need to look, there is no ball, just handle it boldly."

After saying that, he took the shell and knocked it with a small hammer: "Bang, bang, bang!"

The shell was smashed to pieces, and there was no trace of red coral.

Seeing this, Ao Muyang began to be disappointed.

Scavenging snails are very interesting. They live in groups. When they find something they are interested in, they will snatch it from each other and stick it on their shells.

These snails come from the same group. If they have encountered red coral, there should be some red coral fragments in the shell of almost every snail.

With no hope in his heart, Ao Muyang became lazy.

Ao Fugui was interested in this kind of thing, so he pushed him away and took over the control of the snail.

He didn't use a file to clean it up, but directly got off the hand grinder.

As the big shell was divided into two pieces, he suddenly shouted: "Haha, haha, I said I had good luck - hey, Yangzi, you are definitely not a virgin, you must have been handled by a woman!"

"Nonsense." Ao Muyang leaned over to take a look. He didn't see the red coral, but saw a small stone like an egg yolk.

This small stone is bright yellow and translucent. When the sun shines on it, it emits a soft light, which looks very beautiful.

"Beeswax!" Ao Muyang was surprised.

This thing is found in the sea, but it is not very common. Unexpectedly, they found it in the shell of a scavenging snail.

The beeswax found by Ao Fugui is not small and is worth several thousand yuan.
