Chapter 1576 coconut snails

Gu Lie was the most thief. When he noticed Han Peacock's attention, he said directly: "Are you curious? The women at home took their children to the South Pacific and heard that they were going to catch giant squid."

"South Pacific?" Han Peacock asked a little strangely.

Gu Lie glanced at Han Kongque angrily and said, "Isn't it because of you? I heard that the scenery there is beautiful, and you established a base there, so they wanted to go there and go with your company's fleet.

, I heard that people are going to Antarctica to catch lobsters.”

"Abandoned you three men at home?" Han Peacock said funny.

Gu Lie said disapprovingly: "It was all instigated by Song Min, so I can only swallow my anger."

Looking at the bag hanging on Gu Lie's body, Han Peacock was speechless. It turned out that it was because of this that Gu Lie became a little follower, helping the three of them carry things.

As the four of them talked, the tour guide led them to a shop called malasadas.

“I see you have a big sweet tooth, so why not treat yourself to a warm Portuguese donut? If you ask the locals, they will tell you their favorite bakery on each island. You can go and discover these delicious and fresh desserts.

.”

Maybe it was because I liked it, or maybe I saw the four Korean Peacocks eating cones, so the tour guide took them to a dessert shop this time.

The four grown men looked at each other for a while, and then laughed at the same time.

"Forget it, since we are here, let's just buy some." Chen Qing said.

Han Peacock smiled bitterly and said, "You can't take it back even if you buy it. Let's go to eat!"

"Yes, I can't stand desserts." Gu Lie also said.

"So what to eat? Local specialties?" Yuan Peng asked.

"pupu?" Taoist friend asked.

"pupu" is the Hawaiian word, meaning appetizer. Every local restaurant in Hawaii provides a variety of creative pupu platters for guests to taste, ranging from poke to sushi.

"An appetizer? It can't be a meal, right? I need to eat more." Gulie said.

Yuan Peng also said: "Everything here is good, but the portions of many things are too small, such as steak."

"If you have a good appetite, you can try looo, which is rice covered with hamburger steak and eggs, and topped with gravy. Many restaurants in the Hawaiian Islands sell looo, but it is said that aé100 in Hilo on the Big Island of Hawaii is the birthplace and the most authentic.

"

I had already seen how much food four people can eat, so the tour guide finally made some suggestions.

"Is there any meat? I can't stand eating rice, steak, and eggs." Yuan Peng asked unceremoniously.

"Meat?" the tour guide didn't understand what it meant.

"Bigger portions, barbecues, etc., don't need gravy." Korean peacocks hate gravy. If they eat meat, they eat meat. They turn the meat into gravy and pour it on the rice. What the hell is this?

"Plate exposed nh?" the tour guide suggested.

"What?" Han Kongque and the other four didn't understand.

"Plate nh is a fast food meal that includes two scoops of rice, macaroni salad, and a choice of grilled pork, Korean bulgogi, fried chicken steak, sizzling beef, or grilled mahi-mahi, etc."

Hawaiian fast food plate nh is a unique local staple food. From mom and pop shops to local chain stores, you can get a perfect plate nh within a few steps.

"Okay, that's it." Han Peacock immediately agreed. No matter what kind of barbecue it is, or what kind of roast pig it is, you can eat it to your heart's content.

When a few people went to eat, they saw many people bringing some souvenirs, and the most common ones were corals and shells.

“In Hawaii, tourists can buy souvenir corals and shells that exude the smell of the sea. Flower chains made of thousands of small shells are worth thousands of dollars. You can see all kinds of them in stores large and small.

Such shells and shell ornaments.”

"Did you see the clothes they wore? It's an island shirt, called an aloha shirt. If you want to become a real Hawaiian, you can go to the Hattie store in Hilo and buy a few pieces with floral patterns on them.

Aloha shirts, or Mumu skirts, the ones worn by men are called Aloha shirts, and the floral shirts worn by women are of different lengths. The ones worn during the day are slightly shorter, called 'Mumu', and the long ones worn at night are called 'Mumu'.

"

Yuan Peng looked at the streets with people coming and going and sighed: "How come such a good place, such an island country with such strategic significance, always misses out on China? Why can't it become a province of China?"

"There are so many good places in the world, why do you still think that they all belong to our country?" Gu Lie said with disdain.

Yuan Peng said with a smile: "If you can't become our country, it will be the same as if you become the Peacock Kingdom!"

"Don't daydream. All the places here that can be used to build artificial islands have been filled in. No one should dare to destroy the current environment." Han Peacock said.

Chen Qing also said: "If you can't come near the United States and Russia, don't come. It's troublesome."

Han Peacock nodded. He still needs to maintain a little respect for the two most powerful military powers in the world. Of course, corrupting them from the inside is what Han Peacock is doing.

While talking and eating barbecue, the four of them walked on the street again after everyone had filled their stomachs.

"Huh? What are they doing over there? Street stalls? Isn't it said that the United States has good public security? Why are there roadside stalls?" Yuan Peng has the sharpest eyes, and he can see the excitement over there at a glance.

"Come on, let's go over and take a look. The roadside stalls in the United States are very interesting." Han Peacock said.

"It's a pearl seller," Chen Qing said.

Gu Lie said: "It should be said that it is gambling on pearls. There is also a scam like not arriving first."

Han Peacock took a look and said: "It's a little more conscientious than the ones in China. The pearl oysters here are pretty good and they're not fake."

"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go over and take a look." Yuan Peng said.

Han Peacock laughed and said: "Slow down, there are many people over there, let Huangshan and the others prepare."

"By the way, you didn't mention Huangshan and the others. I haven't noticed yet. Have you been a little too careful recently?" Chen Qing asked.

Han Kongque had nothing to hide. He said directly: "I was attacked by a werewolf a few days ago. It was very powerful. Then I captured a group of high-level mercenaries. So I have been attracting hate recently, so be careful not to make a big mistake!"

"Then be careful. Let's take a look outside first. This boss is doing a good job! It's really not a scam." Chen Qing said.

There are bodyguards around them, and they are all experts provided by Han Peacock, so they are not worried. However, when entering a place with complex people, they need to give the bodyguards some time to arrange.

"Look over there, is there nothing?" At this time, Gu Lie pointed at a man who opened a shell and shouted.

Now they are on the periphery, so they can see more clearly. Some tourists who bought pearl oysters found that after cutting open the shells, many of them were empty, with no pearls at all. This kind of shells is completely different from the shells in China where 20 or 30 pearls are sold at once.

"Nine times out of ten, they are all empty. Isn't this too deceptive?" Yuan Peng was a little disappointed. Although they were all pearls, the probability of finding pearls was too low.

"Look over there, there's a pearl out there, but the shape is too bad, right?" Gu Lie was very disappointed when he saw a man happily holding a strange-shaped white pearl.

"Okay, let's go over and have a look. It's not expensive and we can test our luck." Han Peacock said with a smile.

The pearl oysters here are indeed not expensive, small ones only cost two dollars each, and large ones only cost five dollars, so many tourists will try their luck.

Naturally, Han Peacock didn't need luck. He released his spiritual consciousness and observed various shellfish here. Han Peacock was very suspicious that many of the shellfish here should be unsold by various seafood restaurants, and were lured by this boss.

Here we started playing pearl betting.

Looking at the various shellfish, including coconut snails and geoducks, Han Peacock smiled when he saw the coconut snails. He heard that these coconut snails also produce pearls.

Of course, not only seafood such as coconut snails and geoducks also produce pearls, so natural pearls are actually a gamble on luck.

There are a lot of coconut snails here, and Han Peacock checked them one by one. While he was checking the coconut snails, Chen Qing and the others had already bought three or five shells each and were waiting for the boss to open the treasure.

There are a lot of coconut snails here. If you count carefully, there are hundreds of them. The Korean peacock looked over one by one, but there was nothing there.

After Chen Qing and the others opened the treasure three or five times and obtained several pearls, Han Kongque still found nothing.

"You'd better come over and take a look at these pearl oysters!" Chen Qing shook his head and said.

Gu Lie said: "You don't want to get a dragon ball too, do you?"

"Haha, Melo Pearl is not that easy to come across." Yuan Peng also laughed.

Han Kongque doesn't care about ordinary pearls at all. Are there any pearls missing in his hand? He has everything from golden pearls to black pearls, so he really has no interest in opening pearls.

At this time, Han Peacock found a pearl inside a coconut snail. It was not small, almost two centimeters. The most important thing was that it was completely round. The price of such a pearl should not be low. If it is a Merlot pearl

, the price is more expensive.

"Okay, that's it, let's see if it can get a dragon ball." Han Peacock said with a smile.

Meile beads, also known as "dragon beads" or "flame beads", are round in shape and come from conches, so they cannot be cultivated artificially.

The composition of Melo beads is similar to that of most shellfish, including aggregates of calcite and aragonite microcrystals. Its colors range from orange-red, orange, yellow, yellowish brown to nearly white. It has the crystal-clear appearance of ceramics, flame pattern structure, and irregular shapes.

They range from egg-shaped to round, with round ones usually having higher value.

In the midst of sighs, not a single pearl came out of twenty or thirty pearl oysters, and in the end only the coconut snail in Han Peacock's hand was left.

"Cut it open and take a look?" Gu Lie said with his eyes wandering.

Han Peacock shook his head and said: "For stimulation, just pick out pearls. I plan to adopt this coconut snail." (To be continued.)
