176. Great Harvest (please give me monthly votes and recommended votes)
This little incident was quickly forgotten by Li Xiao, and he was not unhappy because he lost an audience.
After all, if an audience with such low quality mixes among the normal audience, he will soon lead other audiences to bad taste.
He is not willing to affect the quality of his entire fan base for the sake of such a person.
The harvest on the rocky beach is indeed much better than on the ordinary beach.
In less than half an hour, Li Xiao picked up half a bucket of various shells.
This is because Li Xiao discarded a large number of small shells, otherwise the number of shells in the bucket might have doubled.
There were a lot of white clams, blood clams, and he also picked up six or seven scallops the size of the palm of his hand.
He glanced at the large scallops in the bucket and felt a little regretful that he had forgotten to bring the vermicelli and minced garlic.
However, the simple grilled scallops still taste good. It’s not a big problem since I brought several bottles of seasonings.
The so-called Wangshan Road is a dead horse. This stone beach may seem small in area, but the time it takes to walk from the edge to the center is not small at all.
It has been more than half an hour since Li Xiao first picked up the asparagus, and he has only walked less than half the distance.
Of course, this is mainly because he spends a lot of time picking up seafood hidden in the crevices of rocks and cute little creatures nestling in the sand while walking.
Soon a flash of emerald green caught his eye.
Li Xiao licked his lips, there were really a lot of good things today.
He moved the camera towards where he could see it. The emerald green things formed a sharp contrast with the black rocks.

"Oh, my dear, there is grass growing on this rock."
"You should read more books upstairs. Why do you see grass growing on the rocks? It's obviously moss."
"Has the moss grown so long on your house?"
"This must be some kind of seaweed."
"Shouldn't seaweed grow in the sea? Why does it grow on rocks?"
"It actually looks like seaweed, but the color doesn't seem to be the same as seaweed."
"Yes, it looks like seaweed to me at first glance, but isn't seaweed black?"
.......
Li Xiao saw that the discussion in the live broadcast room was almost complete before he opened his mouth to explain.
"Yes, everyone has good taste. This is seaweed."
As he spoke, he gently scraped along the edge of the stone with a shovel.
The sharp shovel directly scraped off the green seaweed.
Li Xiao's movements were very measured and he did not directly scoop up the seaweeds by the roots.
Because as long as the roots of seaweed are left, it will continue to grow.
But if the roots are shoveled out, the seaweed nearby will die one after another.
I heard my second aunt jokingly say that as long as the roots of seaweed are shoveled out, the seaweed nearby will be scared to death. It sounds like a joke.
But Li Xiao once tried to do this when he was a child, and the result was indeed like what everyone said, the seaweed on the whole rock died.
But to this day, Li Xiao still doesn't understand what the principle is.
But after that experience, he never did anything like that again.
Li Xiao gently scraped the seaweed on the rocks with a shovel while introducing it to the audience in the live broadcast room.
"Many people may wonder why the seaweed on my hand is different from the seaweed you usually see."
It takes a lot of effort to scrape the seaweed that grows on rocks, because without a special knife, the roots of the seaweed can be scraped off accidentally.
So Li Xiao moved very carefully, and it took him about ten seconds to scrape a small clump of seaweed onto his hand.
He stopped and showed the green seaweed in his palm in front of the camera.
Emerald green and crystal clear, the thin seaweed shreds still have water droplets hanging on them.
"The reason why this seaweed is different from the seaweed you usually see is because this is the legendary head water seaweed."
"The so-called Toushui seaweed is the seaweed that grows for the first time. The first time it is harvested, it is called Toushui seaweed."
"If we want to compare other things with seaweed, it is equivalent to the royal jelly in honey and the colostrum in milk."
"They all have very high nutritional value, and the harvesting period of Tou Shui Porphyra is very short."
"Every year, seaweed can be picked 12 times, and one of them is the time to pick Tou Shui seaweed. The time to pick Tou Shui seaweed is only 5 to 7 days. Of course, if the weather is hot, this time will be shortened to 3 to 5 days.
sky."
Li Xiao picked up some pieces of seaweed and placed them in front of the camera. The high-definition camera showed every detail of the seaweed to the audience in the live broadcast room.
"The length of seaweed is usually very short. You can see that most of the seaweeds are smaller than my little finger."
"And the width of seaweed is very thin, and the widest ones are not as wide as disposable chopsticks, because their growth cycle is too short."
As he spoke, Li Xiao picked up one of the seaweeds with water, shook the water droplets on it and threw it into his mouth.
Fresh seaweed has a very crisp texture.
A thin strip of seaweed was swallowed by Li Xiao without much chewing.
"It's salty, with a bit of seawater taste, and a bit fishy. It tastes good, but it tastes very average."
"This is also the first time I have eaten this seaweed raw. I didn't expect it to taste like this. I will use it for barbecue or take it home to make soup."
He did not throw the seaweed directly into the bucket because there was already too much in the bucket.
If he throws these finely chopped seaweeds in, they will probably be mixed with other seafood, making it impossible to separate them.
After thinking about it, Li Xiao directly emptied the mineral water bottle used to hold sea water, and then stuffed all the seaweed in the palm of his hand into the mineral water bottle.
I have just caught four or five king razor clams, so this mineral water bottle has completed its historical mission and can retire with honor.
But as we all know, retirement is just a matter of using your remaining energy on another battlefield.
For example, it can now be turned into a very good container to hold the nori seaweed that Li Xiao has.
After scraping carefully for another 10 minutes, I finally filled the mineral water bottle in my hand.
Li Xiao stopped. Although there was still a lot of seaweed left on the rocks, he originally planned to make some roasted seaweed. Scraping off too much would not be of much use.
Going to the sea is like going to a buffet, although the table is full of all kinds of things you want to eat or want to be eaten by you.
But before you pick up the food, you need to consider whether you can eat it.
You should do things according to your ability. After all, if you can't finish it, there is no need to waste it.
The same is true for catching the sea, although there will be many kinds of seafood on the beach, including many small fish, shrimps and crabs.
But there is no need to catch those cute little ones who are too young to reach adulthood, because as seedlings, they don’t have a few ounces of meat at all. If you catch them for fun, they will lose their lives instead.
You can't eat anything and it loses its life, so why bother?
Anyway, every time Li Xiao goes to the sea, he only catches the big and meaty seafood. As for the small ones, he just lets him stay there quietly.
After all, the little guy will grow up one day. When he gets married and has children, when he becomes an adult, it won't be too late for you to catch him.
Fishing when the lake is exhausted, catching everything no matter how big or small.
Then one day, when you bring your juniors to catch the beach, they may say: Why is there nothing on this beach?
I put the mineral water bottle filled with nori seaweed in the bucket, searched around and found a lot of good things.
I took a look and saw that the time in the live broadcast room was now 7:30. Before I knew it, I had been on this rocky beach for an hour and a half.
Li Xiao checked the harvest in his bucket.
Two ordinary green sea cucumbers, five abalones, four palm-sized scallops, some cat's-eye snails, a few conches, a pile of mixed shells, a palm-sized three-point crab, a few king razor clams, and a rat spotted rat
.
The harvest is quite good, even rich.
After thinking about it, I ate porridge in the morning before setting off.
Li Xiao still stopped and did not continue to search. Although he had only searched less than 1/10 of this rocky beach, there may be many rare elves hidden in the remaining area, such as the legendary gem starfish or Beibei.
dragon.
But he already had a lot of things on hand, and whether he could finish them easily was a question, so there was no need for him to waste too much food.
Li Xiao picked up the bucket and walked towards the grove next to him. It was not what he wanted to do. Besides, even if he wanted to, he couldn't do anything alone in the grove.
The main reason why he walked towards the grove was because the sun had already risen. Although it was winter, the sun on the beach was very fierce.
Standing in the scorching sun and barbecuing seems a bit silly.
After placing the tripod and setting up the camera, Li Xiao threw the bucket aside and took out the windproof stove that he had just used for two minutes.
Are you going to speak to the live broadcast room?
"Okay, our emotional activities today are over, now it's barbecue time."
"Now I ask for the last time, does anyone come over to have a barbecue with me?"
A lot of complaints popped up on the barrage instantly.
"Brother, this is a working day. What is a working day? You come to us for a barbecue on working days."
"The anchor happily rushes to the beach to have a barbecue, while I have to rush to the subway hard."
"I was eating steamed buns in the cafeteria while watching the anchor go to sea. The vegetarian steamed buns actually tasted like seafood."
"The anchor said it was too late. If I had arrived a day earlier, I would have been able to get there."
.....
Seeing that no one was interested in coming to the live broadcast room, Li Xiao sighed helplessly.
"Since there is no one to barbecue with me, I can only barbecue by myself."
Seeing Li Xiao's arrogant look, there was another burst of complaints in the live broadcast room,
"I'm really outrageous. Whoever is closer to the anchor, we will crowdfund for him."
"Yes, we have tens of thousands of people here, and each person crowdfunded ten yuan."
"The person upstairs raised almost hundreds of thousands per dollar through crowdfunding. Do you want to kill the anchor?"
"No, no, no, this is too exaggerated. Please calm down."
...
Seeing the raging crowd, Li Xiao didn't dare to talk nonsense and took a look at the surrounding environment.
It's not too dense behind me, and the trees can just block the strong sunlight above my head.
In fact, this location is not bad, but he glanced at the seafood in the bucket and immediately frowned. Although the seafood was freshly caught, it had not been cleaned. Did he have to take it back to the beach to clean it again?
He stood up again and looked around his surroundings.
In the small woods behind you, there are many large and small gravels on the ground.
Soon, Li Xiao's eyes lit up. On the other side of the grove, there was a stream flowing towards the sea. Now he didn't have to think about how to clean the seafood. With this stream, he didn't have to run around.
Already.
I quickly picked up the tripod and bucket that had been set up and went to the creek.
The environment here is even much better than there just now. The water in the creek is very clear. After all, there are no factories nearby. He can even see many small fish and shrimps playing in the river.
He dipped his finger into a little stream water and tasted it. There was no strange taste, and he could even taste some faint sweetness. He nodded with satisfaction. It seemed that this was a serious stream.
After setting up the stove again, he used a shovel to cut off a branch. The leaves on the branch were very dense, which was perfect for use as a brush. Li Xiaozai carefully washed the seafood he had harvested.
Throw the washed seafood back into the bucket and fill the bucket with clean water.
Li Xiao dug out a small pit about 30 centimeters with a shovel, broke off the dry branches he picked up just now, threw them into the small pit, and sprinkled a small amount of 98-degree alcohol on the liver.
After finishing the preparations, he looked at the live broadcast room and spoke
"Okay, the preliminary work is done, we can now start the official barbecue."
He folded the tin foil in half to increase its thickness.
Pick out some shells with thicker shells and place them on tin foil. Sprinkle salt, sugar, pepper, and a little soy sauce on the surface of the shells, then wrap the tin foil into a ball with the opening facing up.
Put the shells wrapped in tinfoil into the pit, light the dry branches in the pit, and the flames will instantly wrap the tinfoil.
However, when Li Xiao was selecting, he deliberately selected some branches with a relatively thick diameter.
In this way, the branches will not burn so fast, the fire power will not be as strong, and the burning time will be correspondingly longer.
After taking a look at the size of the flame, Li Xiao nodded with satisfaction and spoke to the live broadcast room.
"Now let me teach you a little trick on grilling shellfish."
Studio
“!!!!”
"Hey, it's coming, it's coming."
"No, here comes another trick!!"
"So, I still suggest that we crowdfund to hang up the anchor and beat him up."
"Listen to what he says first, and then consider whether it was hung."
"Isn't it enough to have a hand to barbecue? Do you need some skills?"
Li Xiao saw the complaints in the live broadcast room and smiled. These guys misunderstood him too deeply.
"Barbecuing shellfish is more complicated. They cannot be placed directly on the grill because there will be a lot of moisture in their shells."
"Once the shellfish is roasted, the shells will quickly open and the hot water inside will bounce up. People who are grilling can easily be scalded by the nearly boiling juice."
"So when we grill shellfish, we either open the shells first, or like me, wrap the shells in tin foil and add seasonings inside."
Studio
“It’s quite reliable this time.”
"Let's spare your life for now."
"The dog head saves his life!!"
"Oh, I'm going to eat it at work."
“I’ve been drinking so much that I can’t even see an open barbecue restaurant.”
...
Since the firepower in the pit is not very strong, Li Xiao estimates that it will take at least ten minutes to bake it.
So during this period of time, you can take some time to grill other things.
You need to pick out all the scallops in the bucket.
Since there are shellfish burning in the pit, let's grill all the scallops we have on hand.
Taking the scallops in his hand, Li Xiao took out the knife from his backpack. As a food anchor, it is normal to carry a knife with you to cut food, right?
Insert the knife into the scallop and gently separate the skirt of the scallop from the shell.
Then, the tip of the knife goes deep into the interior to test the position of the scallop meat, and then inserts the blade of the knife into the edge of the scallop meat along the shell wall to completely separate the middle scallop meat from the scallop shell.
Without the adhesion of the shell meat, the scallops can be opened easily.
There is no scallop shell on the other side. Don't throw it away easily. Keep it aside for later use. Continue to use the blade of a knife to carefully separate the scallop meat from the scallop shell.
He did not rush to clean this scallop, but cut the other three scallops in the same way.
After doing this, Li Xiao returned to the creek with four cut scallops in one hand and a camera in the other.
He introduced to the live broadcast room
"Scallops are not a very rare thing along the coast, so we don't eat the skirts of scallops on our coast."
Before he finished speaking, he casually pulled off all the skirts of the scallop and threw it into the creek.
Seeing the scene of Li Xiao, a prodigal son, everyone in the live broadcast room took a breath of air.
"Listen, listen, is this what people say? What do you mean you can't eat the skirt of a scallop?"
"Good guy, I took a look at the spicy skirt in the bucket of my cabinet. It turns out that this thing needs to be thrown away."
"I fainted from crying in the toilet. My favorite food is skirt hem. I didn't expect that no one would eat it at the beach."
"Anchor, this is too wasteful. If you don't want to eat it, you can mail it to me."
.......
Watching the howling ghosts in the live broadcast room, Li Xiao secretly snickered, let's see if you bastards are still complaining about me, let's see if I'm not hungry for you.
Seeing someone saying that he wasted food, he explained.
"These skirts will be washed directly back to the sea by the stream, and then the small fish and shrimps in the sea will eat these skirts. You don't have to worry about wasting this at all."
"Besides, what I said is true. When you come here, you will know how cheap the scallops here are."
"If you watched my live broadcast yesterday, you should know that a scallop as big as the palm of your hand costs two yuan. Who is willing to eat skirts?"
