Golden Fishery

v2 Chapter 311: .A surprise (2/10)

  I saw a pile of large scallops and crabs stuck in the chaotic cracks of the reef. The reefs were scattered and disordered, like a labyrinth. These scallops and crabs lived in it and could not run, so they could only survive inside.

  In this way, this reef is a bit like the breeding farm of Hei Bawang, and scallops and crabs are naturally its reserve food for breeding.

  Great white sharks have a very mixed diet, from big fish and small fish to cephalopods to shellfish, all can be used as their food. Because they have sharp, hard and dense teeth, they can crush shell creatures such as scallops and crabs for food.

  Qin Shiou is not interested in these scallop crabs. What attracts him is a large shell more than ten centimeters long.

  This shell is extremely beautiful, slightly oval in shape, with a high rise in the center of the back, thick and low sides on both sides, and a smooth shape. The most fascinating thing is its crimson color, and the water is surging. This red group of red shimmers in a trance like a flame.

  At this time, the shell is living on a gray-white reef, so that the crimson flame color is more vivid and eye-catching between the color contrast.

  After seeing this big shell, Qin Shiou was delighted. He saw at a glance that this thing is the famous golden snail in the shellfish collection world!

  Bao snails are also called "baby" in shellfish, which shows how precious it is.

  In fact, most precious snails are not valuable. They are widely distributed in tropical, subtropical, and warm temperate waters around the world, especially in the warm waters of the Indo-Pacific and warm waters of the Atlantic, which are easy to catch.

  Golden snail is a different species. The reason why it has such a nickname is not to say that it is as precious as gold, but before the hard currency of gold was in circulation. Some ancient civilizations used this precious snail as currency.

  Now the role of the golden treasure snail is to watch. Qin Shiou is a well-informed mariner, and his fishery also keeps a big dragon palace Wengrong snail. But after seeing the golden snails, I still feel dazzled. This thing is so beautiful, the shell is too smooth and beautiful.

  Swimming to the side of the reef and taking a look, Qin Shiou slowly became a little disappointed. The golden snail was already dead. Only the shell is left.

  In this way, its value is reduced a lot. A living golden snail that is so big and beautiful is not comparable to the national treasure of Longgong Wengrong snail, but it can be sold for a hundred thousand Canadian dollars.

  It’s okay if you die, you can take it back and give it to Winnie. It’s much cooler to give it to a girl as a gift than gold or silver jewelry.

  At this point, Qin Shiou was also a little tired. Prepare to return to the fishery to rest.

  As a result, the Black Overlord saw that he was interested in this snail shell, so he suddenly rushed over, put his head on the reef next to him, and knocked over the broken reef.

  Qin Shiou was taken aback, is this guy crazy? Or is this little thing its forbidden and don't want to let it move?

  Opening the rock on top, the black bully swept the sand underneath with a fusiform mouth. More than a dozen small golden snails with the same shape appeared.

  These little treasure snails are still alive. Some of them were still looking for food with their tongues sticking out. The hidden reef was pushed aside, so scared that they hurriedly converged and retracted into the snail shell.

  Qin Shiou is having fun now, there are so many little boys hiding here? It happens to be brought back and raised. This thing is very beautiful in a fish tank.

   Collected these little snails, Qin Shiou smashed the surrounding rocks away to see if there were no fish that had slipped through the net.

  Golden snails often live on the rocky seabed near the low tide line in the intertidal zone, and the tide recedes. I like hiding under the reef blocks, in the interstices of coral reefs and in caves. So to search for them, the reef must be broken.

  These little treasure snails are only three or four centimeters long, which is much smaller than that snail shell. I think the mother snail died after giving birth here. Leave that snail shell on the reef.

  Find a big scallop and eat the meat inside, Qin Shiou controlled the Baoluo cub to slowly get into the scallop. Together with the big shell, it was held in the mouth of the white shark, and the Black Overlord rode the wind and waves to the fishery all the way.

  Black Overlord followed, and Qin Shiou input a lot of Seagod consciousness to it to help it recover from the wounds on its body, so that its speed and explosive power can also keep up with the White Shark.

After giving the white sharks instructions to return to the fishing grounds, Qin Shiou retracted the seagod consciousness and began to sleep.

  Getting up early the next day for exercise, Qin Shiou deliberately ran on the beach with Wei Ni. A wave of sea surged back and forth, and the golden sunlight sprinkled on the golden snail shell, reflecting a dazzling light.

"What's that?" Wei Ni noticed and ran over. After picking up the golden snail, she was full of surprise, jumping and screaming like a little girl, "Quickly, Xiao Qin, come and see, it's Happy Treasure. Conch!"

  For Qin Shiou, the golden snail is something that can be sold for money, but in the eyes of Winnie, it has transferred to another identity, the happy snail.

  Happiness Baoluo is a nickname for Golden Baoluo, which originated from the Mughal dynasty in India. At that time, the imperial emperor Shah Jahan ran into a beautiful girl selling candy Ji Man Banu at the market. At that time, he happened to have a golden snail on his body, so he gave it to the candy girl and told her that she would spend her life. Happiness.

  So, the golden snails later got this nickname, and in India, this kind of snails was also one of the courtship gifts of noble youths.

Regarding the love story between Shah Jahan and Jiman Banu, the most famous one is the Taj Mahal. After the death of Princess Jiman, King Shah Jahan was desperate to live and designed this world-famous mausoleum for her. .

  In a sense, it was also because of the exaggeration of the Taj Mahal’s love myth that there were rumors of Happy Treasure Conch. Qin Shiou dared to bet that this thing was definitely a rumor fabricated by a certain master pick later.

  But Wei Ni didn't care. After picking up the treasure snail shell, she was very happy. What's even more happier was that Qin Shiou helped her sweep the sand and found two more small treasure snails, and they were still alive.

  Last night Qin Shiou found a total of 24 live little snails. Twenty-two of them were sent to the coral reef area, and the other two were sent to the beach to make gifts for Vinnie.

  Qin Shiou went back to the villa to find a large fish tank left over from the past. After cleaning it, he put some reefs and tender seaweed in it, and Wei Ni put the snail shells and Xiaobao snails in for breeding.

  With the treasure snails discovered in the morning, Winnie was immersed in joy all day long. When she took the tourists to travel, she smiled and fascinated a group of big masters.

Qin Shiou is more annoyed here. When Winnie came back to see him in the evening, she asked what was wrong. Qin Shiou sighed and said, "Aren’t you going to the party on the 18th? There will be an auction dinner at that time. I don’t know what I should do. What to shoot."

  In fact, there are a lot of valuable things on him, but almost all of them are alive, and they will definitely not be in the auction for the dinner party.

  Now Qin Shiou regrets a bit. He knew that he should bring a few back when he found Yingyang gold coins. If there were Yingyang gold coins, he wouldn't be so embarrassed now.

  Vini blinked her eyes, and she thought for a while and said, “Actually, this question is very simple. We have great things to participate in the auction.”

  "What?" (to be continued~^~)
