Scum A is not scum [Quick Wear]

The old captain said, "We have certain requirements for going out to sea. There are set times for fishing boats to go out to sea every day. The fishermen who are taking a break today can serve as your guides."

　　"Okay, then please introduce yourself."

　　The old captain laughed heartily, "It's no trouble at all. Thank you for promoting our place."

　　While waiting for someone, Chen Shi and Gu Qingyan leaned on the railing of the fishing boat and watched the fishing boats go out to sea one after another.

　　Rong Chu walked over and said, "Wait a minute, let's find a tour guide. We don't have much experience."

　　They both nodded, breathing in the salty and humid sea breeze. They immediately relaxed and felt a leisure that they didn't have in the city.

　　The fishermen here live nearby, because they have to cast their nets at sea every night, collect the nets before dawn and send them to the seafood market.

　　The captain that Rong Chu contacted arrived quite late today, but he was there to see how the net he had set up a few days ago was doing, so he didn't plan to go too far and just pick them up at the same time.

　　The tour guide was a little black girl with a row of shiny white teeth. The old captain introduced her as a child of a fisherman.

　　The tour guide arrived and the boat officially set sail.

　　The little black girl was called Chen Qianer. Chen Qianer lively took the sea-hunting tools prepared by the old captain and introduced them to them.

　　"The Jiaoyu Island you are going to has the most shellfish. There are also crabs, but crabs are hard to find. If you like to eat jellyfish, that area is full of them."

　　Then he watched Rong Chu and the others put on waterproof waders, rubber rain boots, and gloves.

　　Pick up the tools and teach them how to use them.

　　"When the tide goes out, crabs and sea urchins like to hide in the cracks of rocks. Clams, scallops and the like are entangled with algae. If you see a bunch of hairy seaweed in the water, you may find them if you pick them up. Also, bamboo clams like to nest in the sand. If you see a hole in the shallows, you can usually force them out by sprinkling salt."

　　Seeing Rong Chu and the others listening attentively, Chen Qian'er smiled, her big white teeth contrasting with her darker skin. She chuckled and said, "Not many people have set foot on Jiaoyu Island. You must have gained a lot."

　　Rong Chu pointed to the shovel in the bucket and asked, "What kind of tool is this?"

　　Chen Qianer came over and saw it and said, "This is for prying oysters. Oysters are everywhere on Jiaoyu Island. Who knows, you may even find abalone."

　　"There are black abalone the size of a palm! They are very expensive in the market!" She spoke and gestured as the boat arrived at Jiaoyu Island.

　　The captain lowered them, along with a few sailors, and sailed out to the deep sea, where he had cast his nets, and where he could catch better things.

　　Jiaoyu Island did not look very big. The fishing boat had been sailing for about 20 minutes. By this time, the tide had receded, exposing the rocky shallows. Occasionally, there were palm-sized fish that had not yet swam back to the sea and were jumping in the small puddles. Chen Qianer walked over and threw the fish back into the sea one by one.

　　Rong Chu and her friends rarely came to the beach. They all dispersed and followed what Chen Qianer had said before to see if they could find anything.

　　Rong Chu stared at the rugged rocky mudflats in front of her. She had seen many videos of people going to the beach, so she knew there must be good stuff here.

　　When he walked over, he saw that the entire rocky beach was covered with oysters lying tightly together. The oysters here were all wild and looked strange in shape. Rong Chu tentatively tried to pry the oysters off with a shovel, but maybe it was because it was his first time and he was not very skilled and broke the oyster shells.

　　Chen Qian'er was following Gu Qingyan and the others in the shallows. When she saw Rong Chu prying oysters, she ran over to teach her how to use the tools. Soon the two of them had a large bucket of oysters. Chen Qian'er even pried open an oyster for Rong Chu to taste. It was Rong Chu's first time to eat from the sea, and the taste was indeed good, with an indescribable sweetness.

　　Rong Chu invited Gu Qingyan and Chen Shi to have a taste. Chen Shi took the oysters, and when it came to Gu Qingyan, she had to tease him and feed it to Gu Qingyan's mouth.

　　Gu Qingyan raised her eyelids slightly, a cold light flashed in her eyes, and then she calmed down.

　　After eating, Chen Shi said, "Fresh ones are indeed different."

　　"Is that so?" Chen Qian'er laughed again.

　　Gu Qingyan also nodded in agreement.

　　Rong Chu squeezed over and looked at the net bag that Gu Qingyan was holding and asked, "What did you pick up?"

　　Just now, Gu Qingyan and Chen Shi had been picking things up in the shallows. Gu Qingyan opened the net bag and let Rong Chu take a look. There were many large scallops, clams, and bamboo clams. They had made quite a harvest this time.

　　Rong Chu said, "That's enough. Let's see if there are any big items."

　　Chen Shi asked, "What big thing?"

　　"Crabs, abalone, sea urchins and the like." Rong Chu counted on his fingers.

　　Gu Qingyan nodded softly.

　　The three of them spread out on the rocky beach to look for gaps. After a while, Rong Chu heard Gu Qingyan's voice, "There seems to be something here!"

　　Rong Chu rushed over immediately and saw the crab claws in a crack between the rocks.

　　"It's a crab!" Rong Chu said excitedly. The cameraman also held the camera and showed it to the audience in the live broadcast room, and the audience also became excited.

　　[I saw it, what a big crab! ]

　　[It's a bit deep here, can they catch it? ]

　　[The seawater in the place where Rong Chu and the others went was so clean. There are still such places in China. ]

　　It was almost noon at this time, and the number of viewers in the live broadcast room gradually increased. After seeing what Rong Chu and the others had harvested, they couldn't help but want to go there to take a look, go to the sea, and play in the water. It was quite interesting.

　　Rong Chu and Gu Qingyan tried for a long time but made no progress, so they had to ask Chen Qian'er for help. After all, Chen Qian'er grew up by the sea. She used a long curved hook to catch crabs, and blocked it with a tool next to it. The crab got angry and clamped the curved hook with its claws, and she caught it.

　　This crab was indeed big, about the size of two adult palms, and its shell was a beautiful blue. Chen Qianer said it was called an orchid crab. Just as she took out a crab, Rong Chu noticed another one in the crack of the rock, and she shouted, "There are two more!"

　　After a while, Chen Qianer took out the two crabs as well. The three crabs were placed in a row. Rong Chu and Gu Qingyan both laughed.
