Island Fishery

Chapter 11 Waiting for Pearl to Grow Up

100 palm-sized gray-brown white butterfly clams lived in the glass tank. From time to time, blisters were spit out, and Li Shu watched with relish.

"Put in some chalcedony spirit water, I hope these white butterfly mussels grow faster." Li Shu waved his hand, accompanied by a sense of mental fatigue, a stream of chalcedony spirit water with a faint fragrance flew from the ring When it came out, it turned into countless small water droplets and fell into the water tank.

whoosh whoosh~

In an instant, like a frying pan, the white butterfly clams quickly scrambled for the chalcedony spirit water by spraying water-reaction force ejection, bang bang bang~ from time to time, white butterfly clams collided with each other, making a crisp sound.

"Hey, take it easy old buddies, it doesn't matter if you die, but the pearls in your body that haven't grown yet are ruined?"

As soon as Li Shu finished speaking, bang~ a white butterfly clam was knocked out of the glass tank in the splashing water drops, and it landed on the floor 3 meters away to the right of Li Shu.

"Wow!!"

The golden retriever immediately rushed up and held the white butterfly clam with one paw. Curiously seeing that the latter did not respond, he immediately wanted to smell it with his nose.

"Go, go~" Li Shulian walked over, "Get out of the way, you silly dog, don't let the white butterfly clam pinch your dog's nose."

The golden retriever raised its paws and asked Li Shu to throw the white butterfly clam back into the glass tank. It then walked to Li Shu's right foot and lay down with a grunt. The dog's head rested on Li Shu's instep.

Three days passed in a blink of an eye.

On this day, when the first ray of sunlight in the morning shined into the bedroom through the window, the thrush sleeping on the bed slowly woke up. It slept in a light gray artificial bird's nest the size of a fist. He jumped out of the bird's nest and came to Li Shu's pillow.

"Chirp Chirp~ Chirp Chirp~" The thrush twittered crisply while flapping its wings, a gust of wind blew on Li Shu's face.

"Hoo~"

The golden retriever dog with its back leaning against the bed also woke up. It stood up and straightened its front legs, stretched its buttocks with a big arched waist, and then looked at Li Shu sleeping on the bed and yelled: "Wow~ woof woof~"

"Damn it, a beautiful day starts with the animal alarm." Li Shu turned over and got up, rubbed his slightly dry eyes, and looked east through the window. Groups of seagulls had already gone out for food, and the sky was bright red. The morning glow was extremely gorgeous, like a shy girl's face, the corners of his mouth raised unconsciously.

"The scenery here is really nice. Just looking at it makes me feel good all day long, hiss~ But it would be great if there were fewer mosquitoes."

"Ah~" Li Shu put on his slippers and walked towards the bathroom. After yawning, he muttered: "I still need to improve my skills. Last night, I caught half a mosquito, but I caught one. What a failure~ Thrush , you stupid bird won’t help me catch mosquitoes~ahh~”

"Chirp, chirp~" the thrush turned back with a full face of dissatisfaction, then pouted its buttocks and pushed the window open with all its strength, swiped~ spread its wings, and flew into the sky.

The early worms are eaten by the birds, and it wants to see which worms get up so early and turn them into its own food as a reward.

After washing, Li Shu directly pulled the slippers to the B1 floor, followed by the golden retriever dog.

"It's been more than 3 days, and I've also fed a lot of chalcedony water, let's open one to see the effect." His eyes swept over the white butterfly mussels that had grown a lot in the glass tank, Li Shu's A nervousness rose in my heart for no reason.

The more you look forward to it, the more you fear disappointment.

In an instant, he felt that he had returned to the time when he checked the scores of the college entrance examination, and he was also so nervous.

"Wow~" The golden retriever obviously couldn't understand Li Shu's nervousness. It was chasing its tail in circles, and the dog's paws scratched across the light yellow wooden floor and made a pattering sound.

"Silly dog, it's time to cut your nails." Li Shu let out a deep breath, walked to the storage cabinet on the right, and rummaged through a pile of odds and ends to find a rusty knife.

"Mazu bless me, if I can get top-quality pearls, then I will soar into the sky, if nothing else, then I'm afraid I have to consider raising others, after all, the debt collection is very tight." Li Shu clasped his hands I bowed towards the east, then went to the glass tank and fished out a white butterfly clam.

clatter~

With water splashing everywhere, the gray-black white butterfly clam, which was a circle larger than when it was just bought, was caught in Li Shu's hand.

"Swipe~"

The rusty knife was inserted through the gap between the two clamshells, made a neat stroke, and then snapped, click~ instantly the white clam meat wrapped in pearls appeared in front of Li Shu.

"The weak eat the strong, thank you for your hard work, brother clam." Li Shu squeezed out a pearl full of expectation. In an instant, he was struck by lightning, and his heart was half cold.

"It's over, it's over, this pearl is so small." Li Shu held the round pearl like white jade in his left hand, and looked carefully under the light, and he could faintly see a bead core inside the pearl.

Measure it with a caliper, the diameter is 16.2mm.

"Hiss~ The diameter is about one and a half centimeters. It's a bit small. It seems that the three-day breeding time is still a bit shorter, so let's raise it for a few more days." Li Shu looked left and right, muttering: "Although it is small It’s a little thicker, but the shape is very round! And the skin is very good, the color is well blended, and it seems to have a unique soft light.”

"This pearl can also sell for 10,000 to 20,000, silly dog, what do you think?" Li Shu bent down and showed the golden retriever dog the beautiful pearl.

"Woo~" The golden retriever dog tilted his head, sticking out his tender tongue, wanting to lick the pearl. Fortunately, Li Shu's fingers were quick to hide, otherwise the beautiful pearl was destined to stick to the dog's saliva.

"Let's go, let's go eat." Li Shu left the basement with the golden retriever, locked the door, and walked out of the villa in the northeast to the villa in the southeast.

The two villas on Dream Island are about 150 meters apart, one where Li Shu lives and the other where Uncle Hai lives.

In the blink of an eye, another few days passed.

this morning.

Boom~

A flash of lightning flashed across the sky like a tree root, followed by a rumbling rumble of thunder, from far to near, scaring the golden retriever dog to go straight under the chair, while the clever thrush had already burrowed into Li In the tree's arms, only a pair of small round eyes were watching out of the window vigilantly, and the bird's face was full of fear.

huh huh huh~

At the beginning, the bean-sized raindrops were very sparse, but after a few seconds, it turned into a torrential rain. Splashes of water began to splash on the ground outside the villa, and the rainwater gradually gathered into a stream and flowed southward.

"Hiss~ The rain is really falling as soon as I say it. I plan to dry the quilt today. It seems that I can't do it." Li Shu squatted next to the chair, and slowly stroked the golden retriever's head with his right hand, gently, It's like coaxing a baby: "Golden Retriever, don't be afraid, I will protect you."

The Golden Retriever’s nervousness was relieved. It looked at Li Shu pitifully with a pair of dog eyes, and its amber eyes were full of the reflection of Li Shu. It sticks out the tip of its tongue from time to time.

"Let's go to the lower floor to open the mussels. It's been a few days, and the pearls should be almost grown." Li Shu stood up straight away, and the golden retriever got out knowingly and rushed to the lower floor.
