Chapter 207 Giant Conch
After Liu Hao distributed the things to Liu Jun and the others, he left to search elsewhere.There are so many valuable treasures under this sea area, he doesn't want to waste time.

A few minutes later, Liu Hao stopped in front of an area where seaweed grew very lushly.

"Well, there are so many snails here, but they are a little smaller, and only a few can be taken away." Liu Hao looked at the number of snails displayed by the detection skill, and instantly felt that the area was less than [-] square meters. A large, seabed mix of silt, seagrass, and reef creates interest.

It looks like a snail farm here. In a small area, there are thousands of snails gathered. Although they are not very big, there are a lot of them.

Fortunately, the terrain here is more favorable, otherwise the trawler would definitely have eaten these rattle snails as soon as it passed here.

Liu Hao looked at the densely packed small conch shells in front of him, and after thinking for a while, he found a special conch he called giant conch shells from the different space.

The size of this huge conch is super large, and it is generally more than 30 centimeters in adulthood.What's even more terrifying is that it can grow up to one meter long.

Liu Hao was startled when he saw such a big conch for the first time. A conch as big as a child is indeed a little scary to look at.

However, according to the introduction of the system, this kind of conch is edible, and it tastes crisp and sweet.

When Liu Hao first discovered this kind of conch, he roasted one in a different space and ate it. The taste was indeed as the system said.But what makes him feel the most special is that the meat quality of this giant conch is not as unpalatable as abalone and other conch, and it needs to use a lot of auxiliary ingredients to cook it to be delicious.

This kind of giant snail can be roasted directly on the charcoal fire, and it can emit an extremely attractive umami taste, because its body itself contains a lot of monosodium glutamate, which is what we call monosodium glutamate.

You want a conch with MSG on your body all day, can it not be delicious?
It is huge in size, rich in snail meat, sweet and delicious in taste, easy to cook, and can be eaten directly after cooking.And the meat is still enough to make you want to eat it. It is really a good thing that can satisfy your appetite.

Let it out a little more.In this way, I have another delicious food that I can eat openly.And the system said that this conch reproduces and grows extremely fast.

Mature giant snails can lay more than 30 eggs at a time. In addition, it only takes half a year for them to grow to a length of [-] centimeters after hatching. This growth rate is very scary.

But this is good, otherwise, with such an intensive fishing method by humans, it might be caught up soon after it is released.

Thinking of this, Liu Hao threw the snails on the seabed into a different space, and then released a lot of giant snails, all of which were about 30 centimeters in size, and the bigger ones were a bit scary, so he didn't let them go.

There are at least a few thousand here, but probably not enough.

With an idea, Liu Hao came to a seabed 300 meters away, where there was no sand and sand, all reddish-brown and gray-black reefs.

The environment is not bad, there should be no trawler passing by here, thinking about it.Thousands of giant conch shells appeared on the reef again.

In this way, Liu Hao kept dropping giant conch shells around this sea area, and he was going to put this kind of conch shells on the earth to reproduce in large numbers.

After working hard for half an hour, Liu Hao had put down nearly [-] giant conch shells within a few kilometers around.

"Phew, so many giant conch shells have been released, and they are still in some places where the trawling net cannot be operated, so they shouldn't be caught all at once." Liu Hao, who surfaced out of the sea, whispered to himself .

He was worried that the giant rattle snails he released would be fished out by others, but he specially selected some uneven places with many rocks to release them.

In these places, the most people can do is lay some stone nets and ground cages. These tools can catch these giant snails, but they cannot catch them all at once, so Liu Hao doesn't care.

Anyway, he also thought that other fishermen could catch some, so that it would not appear abrupt, otherwise it would be a bit strange if he was the only one who caught this new species.

Ten minutes later, we will return to the fishing boat.

"Boss, come back so early? Is there a big harvest?" Li Zhenjiang, who stayed behind on the fishing boat, saw Liu Hao boarded the boat, and quickly helped him remove the air bottle behind him.

"The big harvest must have drops, it's below. It's relatively heavy, come and help pull it up together."

Hearing Liu Hao's words, Li Zhenjiang was very curious, as to what his boss knew.

Something heavy?

Is it gold?
hiss!
Li Zhenjiang was shocked. Seeing Liu Hao who had already walked to the side of the boat, he trotted to follow, grabbed the rope that Liu Hao handed him, and the two of them pulled the thing up with force.

As soon as Li Zhenjiang pulled the rope, he obviously felt that the thing hanging under the rope was heavier, and a golden picture appeared in his mind instantly.

As the old saying goes, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

After he and Liu Hao pulled the thing up, what caught his eyes was not the golden picture that appeared in his mind, but the gloomy one.

What Liu Hao pulled up was the net bag that Liu Hao used to store seafood. There are now about thirty gray-black things in it.

"Boss, what kind of conch are these? It's the first time I've seen them so big."

"Huhu... I don't know what it's called a conch, but I know it's delicious." Liu Hao kicked a few times, looked at Li Zhenjiang and explained briefly.

Each of these giant snails weighed seven or eight catties, and this net bag weighed two hundred catties. It was quite a struggle for the two of them to pull them up from the bottom of the sea.

"Have you eaten yet?"

"Yeah, it's not the first time I've seen this kind of conch. I caught one in a puddle when I was catching the sea before, but it was much smaller than the ones now, only about ten centimeters. I was It looks like a conch on a whim, so I roasted it on the rocky beach and ate it." Liu Hao said softly while scratching his chin, remembering.

"..." Li Zhenjiang was speechless. As expected of a big foodie, he wanted to eat everything.Are you not afraid of being poisonous and killing yourself?
Liu Hao licked the corner of his mouth, pretending to be reminiscing, and then continued to explain: Brother Jiang, to be honest, the conch that I ate that time was delicious!Much tastier than snails.I still can't forget the taste, it's so fresh and sweet. "

"It looks very similar to a conch, so I call it a black conch. After I took Liu Jun and the others to that area, I searched elsewhere by myself. In a place with lush seaweed, I found I caught a lot of black snails, and they were even bigger than the ones I caught when I was catching the sea on the rocky beach last time, so I picked up a net and came back."

"Why haven't Liu Jun and the others come back? The air bottle should be almost used up."

Li Zhenjiang was staring blankly at the giant conch in his net bag. Hearing Liu Hao's words, he subconsciously looked at the time.

"Well, it's almost time. It should be back."

"Then you wait here, I'll go over there to rest for a while." After speaking, Liu Hao went straight to the stool, drinking water and eating to replenish his exhausted energy.

After a few minutes, Li Zhenjiang, who was guarding the side of the ship, turned his head and shouted at Liu Hao: "Boss, the captain and the others are back."

"It's good to come back. I'm afraid that they will fight hard. I have told them a long time ago. I have searched that place several times, and there must be no pearls. They just don't believe it." Liu Hao said at the same time. , while getting up and walking towards Li Zhenjiang.

"They are young. Seeing that you can find so many pearls, can they not be tempted? Ten to 20 pearls, who wouldn't be tempted?" Li Zhenjiang smiled at Liu Hao.Not to mention Liu Jun and others, I am very excited.

It's just that you arranged for me to stay on the fishing boat. If I go there, I will definitely be like Liu Jun and the others, and won't come back until the last moment.No one will be willing to leave unless the pearl is found.

"It looks like they must have worn out the air bottle before they came back. If that's the case, they probably didn't find anything valuable." Liu Hao teased with a smile.Although he knew exactly what Liu Jun and the others found below, he couldn't say, he could only pretend and guess.

"That's not necessarily the case, maybe they found it. It's just that there are too few, and I want to find more, so I stayed below until now."

"You're right, these guys really might be like this." Liu Hao thought carefully after hearing Li Zhenjiang's words.

++!

Liu Jun's gang must think so, otherwise, after finding the things I gave them, they should search for a while at most, and they should come back if they find nothing.

Now that they came back so late, the few of them must be holding on to the idea that if they can find one, they will find the second, and they are fighting hard on the seabed.

After a few minutes, Liu Jun and others got on the fishing boat one after another.

Li Zhenjiang would always ask no one he met: How was the harvest?Did you find any pearls?

………………

...

After Liu Jun and the others put down their things, drank water and ate, and recovered for a while, they all told about their diving treasure hunt one by one.

"So, you all found something at the beginning, but there was nothing later?" Li Zhenjiang was very surprised when he heard what they said.

Because what they said was too strange.Everyone has some gains in the first time, and then all the time after that is to find a lonely, everything.

It's fine if one person is like this, but it's too coincidental that everyone's situation is like this.

Liu Jun and the others looked at me and I looked at you, and felt very strange in their hearts.It is only now that they know the situation of other people. They did not expect that everyone's situation is the same, but the harvest is slightly different.

"What a waste! There are gold nuggets there, why didn't I find it." Liu Hao took the three gold nuggets that Liu Jun handed him just now, looked left and right at the sun, and suddenly cursed.

"Don't look at it, do you think it's an egg? It's gold, what can you see when you look at it against the light?" Liu Jun saw Liu Hao looking at the gold against the sun, a bit dumbfounded, he couldn't help touching his forehead, He said with a helpless look.

"Hey, I'm used to it. But you kid can actually find gold, cow!"

"Just have fun. These three gold nuggets add up to less than 5 grams. According to the current price of gold, it is only [-] yuan, which is less than the value of one of your pearls. How about I take the gold nuggets with you?" You exchange, how about exchanging these three yuan for one pearl?" Liu Jun stared blankly at Liu Hao, as if saying, I'm at a disadvantage, three for one, exchange?
Liu Hao ignored Liu Jun's inquiry, nor did he meet his eyes, completely ignoring his existence.

"Hey, if you do the math, it seems to be true. I've been dazed by gold. But I can't blame me. In our subconscious mind, gold has always been the most valuable thing." Liu Hao shrugged , Said that he didn't think of such a thing just now.

"Don't talk about it, you have at least three yuan, and I only found one. Who are you going to reason with?" Luo Hao on the other side put on a pitiful look.

"From this point of view, only Song Jianjun and Guo Jia found pearls. Although each of them only has one pearl, the diameter is not small. It should be no problem to sell it for 20 yuan." Liu Hao picked up two pearls, one gold and one white, said calmly.

He said this very calmly, but Song Jianjun and Guo Jia could not be peaceful in their hearts.

20 million.

According to what Liu Hao said before, each of them can get 10 yuan.

One hundred thousand!

They just spent an hour under the sea and earned 10 yuan.

Who will believe this?

If they hadn't known that Liu Hao was not short of money, they would have even thought that Liu Hao was playing tricks on them.

"You two take back your pearls first. After you go back, you can find someone to estimate the value yourself, or you can wait for my friend to come and ask him to estimate the value." Liu Hao waved to Song Jianjun and Guo Jia, signaling The two of them came to get the pearl.

After they boarded the fishing boat just now, they all handed him the things they found, which also made Liu Hao more sure of Song Jianjun's character.More than 20 to [-] yuan can be handed over to him without any hesitation, without keeping it secretly.He felt very satisfied.

A pearl, if they really want to hide it, no one will find it.But Liu Hao can't hide it, he has detection skills, as long as he thinks about it, if he throws a detection skill, Dong XZ will be clearly displayed everywhere, even if he swallows it, the result will be the same.

If they find out that someone has picked up Dong XZ this time, Liu Hao will definitely not renew the labor contract with him after the expiration of the labor contract.

It is very dangerous for a person to be insatiable, because he does not know how to be satisfied and has to think twice.Such a person, Liu Hao didn't want to take him out to sea. Taking him is no different from carrying a time bomb, just to see when he can't help but explode.

It had been agreed that Liu Hao would share half of the fish caught by the crew diving or find valuable things when they went out to sea.

Now Liu Hao found the place where the pearl was found, so he doesn't need to take you there.Now I take you there unconditionally, but if you still want to swallow something after you find it, it is impossible to justify it.

Don't say, why should you divide half of the things you found yourself.

Is not this nonsensical?You are the crew I hired and I pay you every month.Why do you say, I don't take you out to sea, can you come here to dive?Can you find these things?

If you say so, then the seafood caught by your crew is your own?
Because you all caught it yourself.

Fortunately, none of Song Jianjun and the others had this situation.

So Liu Hao is in a very good mood now.After all, crew members are easy to find, but trustworthy crew members are not so easy to find.
