Chapter 342: Discovered Another Treasure

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The abalone was a modern and expensive rare item. It was delicious and nutritious. It was known as the “soft gold” of the sea. It looked very similar to human ears, also known as sea ears.

Its meat was tender and chewy after cooking. It was also called sea beef in Bai Wutong’s hometown.

It was basically impossible to see such a huge wild abalone in the modern world, but there were so many of them growing on any reef here.

In just a short time, roasted abalone, braised abalone, abalone porridge… could all be arranged.

Be it abalone or octopus, they were all quite new to everyone.

Cui Muzhi was the first to lay his hands on the abalones. He twisted, pinched, and dug for a long time before plucking one. “This fellow is quite strong.” Bai Wutong smiled and said, “You have to do it when it’s unprepared.”

The moment the abalone stuck out its tentacles, Bai Wutong attacked at lightning speed and easily dug out the abalone.

With Bai Wutong’s demonstration, everyone learned and immediately worked hard on the abalone.

Bai Wutong dug out two abalones and found another big blue crab.

It waved its two huge pincers and acted domineeringly in front of Bai Wutong.

Bai Wutong was an expert at catching crabs. Just as she was about to attack, Chu Tianbao was afraid that she would be hurt. He stopped her and grabbed the crab himself.

Stinky saw that it was something interesting again and leaned over, wanting Chu Tianbao to let him take a look.

Chu Tianbao glanced at him from afar and threw the crab into the bucket.

Everyone had eaten crabs from the paddy field, but they had never eaten crabs from the sea.

In any case, they were all crabs. The taste must be equally good.

Everyone also grabbed the crabs. Not long after, two buckets were filled.

The seafood seemed to be abundant. When their buckets and bamboo baskets were full, the tides had then subsided.

The good stuff must still be down there.

Everyone set off with Bai Wutong. Soon, they stopped again.

Bai Wutong studied the pile of green things on the ground.

Cui Muzhi’s eyes lit up. “You can eat this?”

If they could eat it, they would have struck lottery.

The entire area was filled with these green plants.

After Bai Wutong carefully identified them, she picked up two similar types of seaweed from the ground and said with a smile, ‘This is called sea kelp. This is sea cabbage. They’re all plants that can be eaten in the sea. After drying them and storing them, they can be eaten all year round.”

“You can make buns, dumplings, boil soup, or stir-fry them.”

“There’s a lot of them here. Go get someone to collect the seaweed. We’ll be able to eat fresh seaweed soup today.”

Apart from the sea cabbage, Bai Wutong stood on the reef and looked around. She discovered another reddish- brown seaweed.

This kind of seafood was called dragon whiskers. It had many strands and looked especially like dragon whiskers. The reddish-brown color was also especially easy to discover, but it also made people “guard” against it. Actually, it was a nutritious, delicious, and crispy seafood. It can be blanched and eaten cold.

This kind of seaweed could also be preserved for a long time, but there were fewer of them and they could only be found on a small number of reefs.

After discovering three types of sea vegetables, Bai Wutong found another type in the waterhole.

This kind of seaweed was like small grapes growing in the water. It was called sea grapes and was commonly known as green caviar. Apart from the fact that it looked especially like fish roe, its nutritional value was even higher. However, this was not very common. It could only be seen occasionally in the waterhole near the reef, so it was relatively expensive in the modern market.

It had a crispy texture and was a delicacy that one should not miss.

Bai Wutong introduced four types of edible seafood in a row. Everyone was surprised that there were so many edible vegetables in the sea.

Not long after, Auntie Yang and the others came with all kinds of tools.

Bai Wutong told them that they had to move all the seafood ashore before the tide rose. Otherwise, when the tide came, the sea vegetables would all be submerged.

Everyone quickly got busy, cherishing the rare vegetables.

When they pulled the sea vegetables out, there were actually sea mussels on the reef below. The size of the sea mussels was actually comparable to the size of oysters.

They were densely packed, which was practically an area that people with trypophobia would not be able to stand.

Whether it was stewed soup or stir-fried after drying, the sea mussel was very delicious and also could be stored for a long time.

Bai Wutong carefully walked along the area towards the reef. As expected, where there were mussels, there would definitely be oysters.

The full-sized oyster was opened a crack, and one could see the fair and tender flesh inside.

Cooking vermicelli with garlic and oysters was practically a delicacy.

Apart from being used for cooking, oysters could also be made into delicious oyster sauce.

Looking at Bai Wutong’s expression, everyone knew that she had discovered something good again.

Bai Wutong said happily, “Hurry up and call some more people over. There are many sea mussels and oysters here. Get everyone to bring some tools and gloves. Be careful not to cut your hands and feet when prying open them.”

Not long after, the reef was filled with people holding various tools and prying at the sea mussels and oysters.

Seeing that some people were struggling to pry open the shell, Bai Wutong said to them, “You can pry open only the top shell on the sea mussels and oysters and take their meat. ‘

Everyone came to a realization and attacked fiercely.

If they couldn’t pry it open, they would smash it with rocks, allowing them to work efficiently.

At this speed, everyone would probably be able to eat a bowl of delicious seafood meat before the sun set.

After having enough fun on the reef, Bai Wutong and the others moved to the beach.

Bai Wutong observed the beach and immediately smiled mysteriously.

She got someone to bring her some salt and said to everyone mysteriously, “I want to show a magic trick to you.”

Under everyone’s gaze, Bai Wutong pinched a pinch of salt and sprinkled it into the small hole. A strange thing as thick as two fingers suddenly appeared.

Cui Muzhi and Stinky hugged each other and shouted excitedly, “Amazing! Amazing! ‘

Bai Wutong pulled the razor clam out of the sand. Everyone surrounded it curiously. ‘What is this?”

Bai Wutong smiled and said, “This is also a type of soft seafood. Its name is

Chengzi, and its nickname is Bamboo Monster.”

Cui Muzhi was especially curious about how a little salt could make it take the initiative to pop out. He asked foolishly, “Is it really a magic trick?”

Stinky looked at Bai Wutong eagerly, as if he was saying to quickly teach her the magic trick.

Bai Wutong smiled and shook her head. “The razor clam is very sensitive to salt. If there’s too much salt, it won’t be able to take it and will pop out of the sand. ‘

Everyone came to a realization and immediately distributed the salt from Bai

Wutong and used the same technique.

Soon, clams kept popping out one by one.

They easily filled a few bamboo baskets.

Apart from the razor clams, Bai Wutong also discovered a small hole in the shape of a U on the beach. This kind of hole was the breathing hole of a clam. If one stomped on the side of the hole and water spewed out, it meant that there were clams inside.

Bai Wutong stomped her feet, and so did Stinky.

He was short, and the water in the clam hole sprayed all over his face. He squatted down and dug curiously, digging out a small white shell. Bai Wutong immediately smiled. “As expected of our lucky star. We’ve discovered another treasure..”
