The transaction was very smooth, the money was paid and the goods were delivered.
It took more than 10 minutes for the man in red to walk to Li Xiao's lifeboat and pour the more than two kilograms of Buddha's Hand clams in his pocket into the bag of the lifeboat.
Li Xiao quickly thanked him,
"Thank you for the Buddha's Hand Shell. You should also pay attention to safety here."
Agreeing, the uncle finally nodded with a smile on his face, but he seemed to have heard the words "pay attention to safety" many times.
"Okay, okay, I got it. Can I be careless when I pick bergamot clams in the sea every day? If I am not careful, they will all die long ago. Okay, go back quickly. I still have to work here. I'll be there when the tide comes in.
There’s nothing I can do.”
After hearing what the uncle in red said, Li Xiao immediately shut up.
After bidding farewell to his uncle, Li Xiao rowed towards the fishing boat.
While rowing, Li Xiao explained to the people in the live broadcast room
"Uncle, this is not rude. The main reason is that time is too tight. Except for the time after low tide, this Buddha's hand clam cannot be picked at other times."
"After high tide, the water level will cover the Buddha's hand clams, but during low tide and high tide, the waves will be very large, making it unsuitable for picking."
"There are only a few hours a day when they can pick bergamot clams, so during this time, they need to work non-stop and not waste any precious time."
"Don't look at the man in red who sells bergamot clams for 1,000 in his pocket. You have to know that the low tide time today is about 4 o'clock in the morning, and the current time is close to 9 o'clock."
"That is to say, the uncle worked for five hours from early morning to dig up so many Buddha's hand clams."
"And he just said that the weather today is very good, with less wind and waves, so there is more digging. If we can dig half as much as usual, it may be considered very good."
"Don't think you can earn hundreds of dollars a day. It looks like a lot, but these hundreds of dollars are paid for with your life, and you won't be able to continue doing this job until you are in your early 40s."
"Because picking this bergamot clam is really harmful to the body. Even if you look at the old man in red, he looks very old. He is probably not even forty."
While talking, Li Xiao rowed back to the fishing boat.
The third uncle looked at the big bag brought here with his big belly. The back of my hand also showed a look of surprise on my face.
"Why is this guy so lucky that he managed to get so many Buddha's Hand clams?"
"The uncle said that the wind and waves were relatively light today, so there were more waves."
"I see, it's very dangerous to do this. I heard a few days ago that the village next door fell when I was picking bergamot clams. My lumbar spine hit the rocks directly. I was paralyzed. Now I can only lie in bed and be cared for.
.”
...
Li Xiao took out the gas tank and stove from the cab, as well as a few bottles of seasoning.
"This bergamot clam is quite delicious. I can't wait to go ashore to eat it. Let's start cooking it right away."
The live broadcast room was instantly flooded with doubts and complaints.
"No, no, the anchor really wants to eat this?"
"I didn't expect the anchor to be such a person with such strong tastes?"
"Those who appear polite on the surface usually have quite strong tastes behind their backs."
"I've tied myself up."
"I have already dug the basement at home and am waiting for the anchor to move in."
"Handcuffs, shackles, red candles."
"Hiss, there is a picture."
"Wait a minute, aren't we talking about this devilish Buddha's Hand Shell?"
"My friend said he is also very gentle..."
"Although I didn't understand a word, I always wanted to sign up."
...
"The preparation of bergamot clams is very simple. If you don't have any cooking skills, then we can directly add cooking wine and a little salt to the water. After the water boils, add the bergamot clams and tumble for 2 minutes before eating."
While talking, Li Xiao poured about 50ML of cooking wine and a little salt into the water. It didn't take long for the water to boil. Li Xiao quickly threw the cleaned Buddha's hand clams into the water, but he did not put them all.
Throw it in and only put in about 1/4, which is less than half a catty.
After all, he had to leave some to the shore and cook it in other ways, and he didn't want to finish such a good thing by himself.
Although Uncle San and his family also live by the sea, seafood such as Buddha's hand clams is too expensive and too rare, so they are definitely not willing to buy it and eat it.
Moreover, the reason why Li Xiao bought such high-quality bergamot clams for 500 yuan per catty is because he bought it directly from the pickers without going through middlemen. If he eats it in the market or restaurant, he estimates that it will cost at least 600 to 700 yuan.
A pound or more.
Two minutes passed quickly while Li Xiao was chatting with the audience.
Li Xiao used a sieve to remove the bergamot clams from the boiling water and placed them in a stainless steel dish.
Turning off the stove, Li Xiao turned his attention to the steaming Buddha's hand clams.
He licked his lips again. Compared to the eel he hadn't eaten in a year, he hadn't eaten this thing in years.
I still remember the last time it was Bergamot clams. When I was in high school, I dug half a kilogram of them myself from the rock crevices on the beach with my cousin.
At first, his cousin said that this thing was edible, but he was still dubious, thinking that his cousin was trying to tease him.
After all, that was the age when children were the most naughty. Who knew that after this thing was brought back to the third uncle's house, the third aunt immediately hung her son up and beat him, and told him not to dig this thing at the beach again.
After all, the third uncle's family lives by the sea, so they are quite familiar with things like Buddha's hand clams.
You must know that many people will die in every Lianwa. Even if they don't die, the injuries will be very serious if something goes wrong.
Because even on the coast, the places where this Buddha's hand clam can grow are in places with high winds and rough waves. After all, this thing does not move and relies on the waves to wash the food into their mouths.
So even the beach is very dangerous. She is really worried that her son will risk his life just for a little food.
Li Xiao blew on the Buddha's hand shell and picked the largest one with a vicious look.
Bergamot clams have no meat at all when they are small, and the bigger they are, the tastier they are and the sweeter they are.
"The Buddha's Hand Cup contains seventeen kinds of amino acids, of which the sodium glutamate content is 6 to 7 times higher than that of ordinary seafood, which is the main source of its rich umami flavor."
Li Xiao displayed the largest Buddha's hand shell on the plate in front of the audience. Although it was the largest, its size was only slightly larger than his thumb.
There is nothing we can do about it, after all, this thing grows too slowly.
"Eating this thing, especially when you eat it for the first time, really tests your inner endurance because it looks so weird."
"Of course, if you have a boyfriend, you can just ask your boyfriend to bite it open and peel off the skin for you, because the meat of this thing is quite normal, pink, tender and very cute, which forms a sharp contrast with his appearance."
"To eat Buddha's hand clams, you need to bite open its claws, just like biting open melon seeds, and gently place it on your teeth to crack it open."
"We can tear apart the claws and the scale-like skin along the claws on its head, up and down, and then we can eat the fresh and sweet meat of the Buddha's hand clam."
Li Xiao's fingers are very nimble, and he peeled off the skin of the Buddha's Hand clam on his hand while talking.
A piece of snow-white meat appeared in front of everyone.
Live broadcast room audience
"I am 1.7 years old, have long legs, and a sweet voice. I have signed up for the host's travel project. Now I need to find a boyfriend to share the travel expenses. I need to peel Buddha's hand clams for me. If you are interested, please add me as a friend."
"I, I, I, I, I, I... don't let anyone compete with me."
"I can peel this, I was born to peel, don't split it, I'm paying for it all."
"I have a friend who is also good at peeling Buddha's hand clams and applied to fight..."
"Hey, are people today so heavy on taste?"
"Tsk tsk tsk, there are so many talents!"
"Long legs? Sweet voice? Male? You have to share the travel expenses and peel bergamot shells??? Sorry, I can't stand it..."
"Originally, I thought the Buddha's Hand clam was scary enough, but I turned out to be naive."
"I'm afraid of ghosts, but they haven't hurt me at all; I'm not afraid of people, but people have hurt me all over."
"I checked the information and found out that this guy is not a shellfish, but a relative of shrimp and crab. It's outrageous."
.......
Looking at the happy barrage, Li Xiao said with a smile
"Okay, let me give you a taste to see if this is as delicious as before."
Or he would just throw the white and tender meat into his mouth.
The meat of Buddha's hand clam is very sweet, chewy and has a lot of juice inside.
If you chew it carefully, you can taste the strong taste of crab meat, but it is sweeter than crab meat.
The more he chewed this thing, the more fragrant it became, and he could even taste the sweetness in it.
Due to the addition of cooking wine, the tender flesh can taste the rich aroma of wine inside.
Because the bergamot clams were very fresh, he didn't even taste the slightest fishy smell in them.
"It's so delicious. At 500 yuan per pound, it's absolutely worth it."
"If it weren't for his terrifying appearance, I think this kind of food would have become popular all over the world."
.....
The audience in the live broadcast room looked at Li Xiao with questioning eyes as he peeled the Buddha's hand clams all the time.
"Is it really so delicious?"
"No matter how delicious it is, I can't accept it. It's too horrible."
"This Bergamot clam is a good thing. Even for people like us who live by the sea, we don't see it often. After all, they are usually sold to high-end restaurants."
"I had this sashimi in a restaurant in Sakura Country, but the chef had already cut off the shell, and the name was different, it was called [Devil's Claw], so I didn't recognize it for a while. The umami was so delicious
Indescribable.”
"Now this thing is becoming less and less popular."
"Can anchors get this food if they sign up to travel?"
...
The last one was sent in bold red font, and it was obviously from a distinguished high-end tycoon.
Li Xiao quickly stopped what he was doing and denied it.
"I can't guarantee this. We can't dig this thing ourselves. We need professionals to dig it, and it's not often we meet people who dig Buddha's hand clams."
"Because they are mobile operators, of course we can take you to the market to search for them. If you are lucky, you can still find them, but the price may be more expensive than now."
When the high-end wealthy man heard Li Xiao's answer, he frowned and immediately said
"Then why don't you mail all the Bergamot clams that the host has to me? They look very good. I want to try them to see what they taste like. You bought them for 500 per catty, and I'll take them for 1,000 per catty.
How about 2,000 plus postage?"
Good guy, a rich man deserves to be a rich man. He has more than doubled his food in a blink of an eye. After all, he has already eaten half a catty.
He took a look at the other party's follower value, which was more than 200,000, which meant that he had rewarded more than 2,000 yuan. He was not considered a small fan.
He hesitated and nodded. After all, if you really want to find this thing, you can still find it, but if the rich customer is offended, it will not be so easy to get it back.
Not only have they always supported my live broadcast, but they are now willing to pay for it.
It doubled in one hour. If the base of this business was larger, people would easily take risks.
After all, if there is a 50% profit, capital will take risks; for 100% profit, capital will dare to trample all human laws; if there is a 300% profit, capital will dare to commit any crime and even risk hanging.
Now the profit has doubled, which is enough for many people to trample on the laws of the world.
What else is there to say? If you can get double the profit without breaking the law, why not?
Directly add the other party's friends, and when they arrive at the shore, they will directly send it via SF cold chain. As long as the distance is not too far, you can have it in the evening.
Since he lost the ownership of the remaining one and a half kilograms of Buddha's Hand clams, Li Xiao cherished them very much when he ate them. After all, they were gone after eating them.
However, no matter how much you eat, the quantity is always limited.
No matter how slowly the boat sails, it will always reach the shore one day.
The place where the fishing ground was located was none other than Sanjiu's home on Hailing Island.
In fact, if we calculate it based on the time of residence, the home on Hailing Island is the real home of the third uncle, and the home on the land will only have people come back to live during the New Year and the holidays. Sometimes when it is busy, even during the New Year
You may not even be able to go back during the holidays. After all, life is important, and work seems to be even more important.
As soon as the boat landed, the two people who were busy in the yard immediately came out to greet them.
One of them, a big man who was 1.9 meters tall, was the fastest. When he saw Li Xiao emerging from the bow of the boat, he hugged Li Xiao directly in his arms.
Fortunately, he saw clearly that the person coming was his cousin, Liang Nuo, otherwise he would definitely kick him out. After all, the hug came too suddenly.
However, Li Xiao was very surprised that this little guy who was originally lukewarm towards him suddenly became so enthusiastic. You must know that he has been tricked by him many times.
"Cousin, long time no see."
It's true that the two haven't seen each other for a full year. After all, it's almost the Chinese New Year.
But Li Xiao was a little strange. Why didn't he see this guy being so enthusiastic about him during the last Chinese New Year?
Before he could say hello to his suddenly enthusiastic cousin, a shy but sweet voice from the side also came over.
"Cousin Xiao, I haven't seen you for a long time. I really want to trouble you this time."
Li Xiao quickly waved his hand and said politely
"If a family doesn't talk to each other, it would be too foreign to say whether it's hard work or not. Why do you take a vacation so early?"
The girl who spoke was the youngest daughter of her third uncle's family, and she was currently studying in the capital.
The school I went to was much better than Li Xiao's third-rate school. Although it was not Tsinghua University or Peking University, it was still a key university.
The girl's name is the same as his brother's, both have two characters: Liang Tong.
My skin is dark. After all, when I was a child, I often had to help my family with work. I was exposed to the sun and rain and had no maintenance. It is indeed very normal to get tanned.
However, his temperament is a bit inconsistent with his appearance. He has been soft-spoken since he was a child and appears to be very quiet and shy. Now it seems that this personality has not changed much even after going out to school.
"Our school has relatively few subjects to take exams, so I go home early to help after the exams."
It seems that my cousin did not learn bad things just because she went to a big city to study.
You must know that many children in rural areas are unwilling to go home when they go out. Even if they are on vacation, they want to stay in the city to play. You must know that the place where they were raised is really not even close to the colorful world outside.
, completely one sky and one earth.
The two children in the family help sort out the seafood at home, while the third aunt is responsible for the cultivation and management of fish rafts on Hailing Island. After all, the profits from offshore fishing have been too low in recent years, and the main source of income for the third uncle's family is now
Aquaculture of fishing rafts.
When the goal was reached, Li Xiaoxia had no intention of ending the live broadcast.
He handed the luggage in his hand to his cousin and then turned to his cousin and said, "My cousin hasn't been to Hailing Island for a long time. Otherwise, my cousin can be a guide for the audience in the live broadcast room."
Although they had known for a long time that Li Xiao needed to come here to conduct live streaming, Li Xiao had never mentioned the matter of asking Liang Tong to be the guide before.
He couldn't mention it even if he wanted to. After all, it was just a last-minute idea.
I originally thought that my cousin would become much more cheerful after she went out to study, and would no longer be as shy and quiet as before.
However, it seems now that he still thinks too much. A country is easy to change but its nature is hard to change. This sentence seems to be very suitable in many places.
Although it doesn't seem to be a big problem if girls are quieter, but that usually refers to school.
It is better to be cheerful when going out into society. If you are too quiet and timid, you will easily be bullied by others.
So Li Xiao wanted to push his cousin in front of the camera to practice his eloquence and courage.
After hearing this, the third uncle next to me not only did not refuse, but instead nodded with a smile.
In his opinion, it doesn't seem like a bad thing to let his overly shy daughter be the guide.
When he heard that he was going to be a guide in front of the camera, his cousin, who had already walked away with Li Xiao's luggage, quickly came to Li Xiao's side and whispered,
"Cousin, cousin, I am more familiar with Hailing Island. How about I be your guide?"
Liang Nuo heard his father say during dinner yesterday that his cousin came here to live broadcast for one day and actually earned more than 100,000.
Originally, he sneered at this number. As a young man, he also watched the live broadcast.
Those who can earn hundreds of thousands a day are all big anchors. He has followed his cousin's account on Mao Mao Live a long time ago.
He had seen it two or three months ago. How could he earn hundreds of thousands a day even if he had tens of thousands of fans?
So he thought his cousin was bragging and lying to his father and his second uncle.
However, when he heard that his cousin actually showed the income from his account, and his second uncle confirmed that it was 110,000, he hesitated a little.
Could it be that his cousin really became a big anchor in just two or three months? Although this possibility is very small, it is not impossible. He quickly opened Mao Mao Live and found his cousin's account from the watch list.
It doesn't matter if you don't see it, he was shocked when he saw it, oh, good guy, how come he has become a big anchor with hundreds of thousands of fans in the past two months.
And he took a look at the popularity rankings and found that his cousin was already ranked in the top 10 in the food section. You must know that the people before and after his cousin’s account are super anchors with millions of fans. Now he really believed it.
It seems that my cousin has really skyrocketed.
No wonder he can earn more than 100,000 yuan a day, and he is willing to give 300,000 yuan to his father and second uncle's family to build a bed and breakfast.
So when he heard that Li Xiao wanted his sister to live broadcast, he immediately recommended himself.
Don't think others are arrogant, but they actually have a lot of clever ideas.
In his opinion, his cousin can go from a small anchor with tens of thousands of fans to a big anchor with hundreds of thousands in just a few months, so is this possible for him himself?
In fact, he didn't think much. His cousin had hundreds of thousands of fans, so he should have less, maybe 100,000 fans.
My cousin earns more than 100,000 yuan a day. I wish I could earn less than 1,000 yuan a day. That would be 30,000 yuan a month. This income is even higher than the income of the whole family.
