Fisherwoman: After my divorce, I became rich by fishing at sea

Chapter 444 Sea Grapes



Chapter 444 Sea Grapes

Upon hearing this, Boss Fu interrupted himself and quickly stood up, picked up the bucket and prepared to get off the boat.

Fu Wan and Ye Xiaocui changed into rubber shoes when they got on the boat, because there were many mudflats on the beach, and if they didn't wear rubber shoes, they would step into mud puddles wherever they stepped.

The most important thing is that once you step in, you can’t pull your legs out.

"You guys just watch here, I'll go put the trap."

Boss Fu picked up the ground trap and turned to leave. There are some tricks to placing the ground trap, as many fish and shrimps prefer shady places.

This time they brought ten traps with them, and it was difficult for Boss Fu to carry them alone. Seeing this, Fu Liang went to help carry them.

Seeing that Boss Fu and the other man had already started fighting, Fu Wan was not idle either.

They immediately split into several groups. Ye Xiaocui and Jiang Chunlan went to turn over the conches under the rocks, while Fu Ming and Ye Lin used tongs to look for crabs.

Fu Wan wanted to dig some clams and shellfish. She hadn't eaten them for a while and was feeling a little strange.

But when she walked onto the mudflat with a shovel, she was unexpectedly attracted by a green spot in the middle of the nearby reef.

"Is this, sea grapes?"

Fu Wan walked quickly forward and reached out to touch the clusters of green beads on the reef.

Sea grapes are a particularly magical fruit because they do not grow on land, but in the sea.

This fruit is actually a kind of green algae in the sea. Its appearance is somewhat similar to ordinary grapes, with each grain being in the shape of distinct beads.

But they are also different from ordinary grapes in that they are generally smaller and have a crystal-clear appearance, similar in texture to sea coral. The last time Fu Wan ate sea grapes was a few years ago. Sea grapes usually grow on rocks or corals on the seabed. The pile of sea grapes in front of her was probably washed up by the wind and waves along the reef.

Fu Wan took off her gloves, plucked a few sea grapes, and put them in her mouth. They tasted delicious; a gentle bite of them released the juices.

To put it simply, that unique taste is slightly sweet with a hint of salty sea water.

Of course, if you take this thing back and soak it in well water for half an hour, the saltiness will be removed and it will only taste sweet.

Fu Wan immediately decided to pick some sea grapes to take back home. They were a very good and rare fruit. They were also very nutritious, so she had to bring them back for the children to try.

Although sea grapes have a strong reproductive ability, Fu Wan still tried her best to pick some big ones, and left the small ones on the reef to continue growing.

The rule for fishermen is that when collecting fish, they must always remember not to damage the marine environment.

"Hey, there are sea grapes here!"

Fu Ming and his companion caught several crabs. They happened to pass by Fu Wan and saw her squatting next to a rock. They thought she had some fish.

"Can this thing be eaten?"

Ye Lin was very surprised. This thing was green and it made his teeth sore just by looking at it.

Fu Wan directly handed him what she had in her hand, "Brother A-Ling, try it, this is good stuff!"

Ye Lin took it doubtfully, but before he could put it into his mouth, Fu Ming next to him squatted down, grabbed a handful and stuffed it into his mouth.

“Yeah, it still tastes the same!”

Fu Ming chewed the sea grapes in his mouth, and seeing that Fu Wan had filled half a bucket, he stopped picking those from the rocks.

Seeing that Fu Ming's expression did not seem to indicate that the food was unpalatable, Ye Lin stuffed the sea grapes in his hand into his mouth. The sea grapes exploded in his mouth, and the novel taste instantly conquered his taste buds.

"This thing is really good. It looks green, but it's not sour."

"Of course! When we were little, we loved looking for these things on the rocks. I even had a fight with Fu Jian over a bunch of sea grapes!"

Even though we lost.

Fu Wan was secretly complaining in her heart. Seeing her brother's smug look, she didn't tell him the truth after all.

She is the one who protects her brother's face!

(??????????)

After putting the sea grapes aside, Fu Wan discovered many shrimp holes on the mudflats.

The mudflats here were soft enough. She dug hard at the shrimp hole less than five centimeters away, and then a shrimp suddenly jumped out.

It was the first time that Ye Lin saw Fu Wan catching shrimps in this way. He immediately became interested and left Fu Ming who was looking for crabs everywhere and joined Fu Wan in digging shrimps.

Ye Lin was a good worker and had a smart mind. He mastered the technique of catching shrimps in no time. It took about half an hour for Fu Wan and Ye Lin to harvest half a bucket of mantis shrimps.

They were all big and fat, some were not even as big as a finger, so Fu Wan let them go and wait for them to grow up before coming back.

"Oh my god, Awan, come and take a look. Is this where the turtles laid their eggs before?"

After Fu Ming looked around and caught some crabs, he thought of climbing up a coconut tree to pick two coconuts to eat. Unexpectedly, the coconuts were dropped by him and fell into a pile of sand.

Fu Ming looked at the eggshell in the sand pit and thought he had done something wrong again. But when he looked carefully, he found something was wrong.

Isn’t this the turtle egg pit that Huakai dug when he got lazy halfway through and they helped him dig it?

Upon hearing this, Fu Wan hurried out of the mud pit on the mudflat and put the bucket of mantis shrimp aside.

Counting the days, it has been almost a month since the flowers bloomed and laid eggs. I don’t know how the turtles are doing.

Several people looked at the sand pit carefully. The eggshells inside were scattered all over the place, but there was no sign of the baby turtle.

Did it hatch and run away? Or did it meet with an accident?

Fu Wan thought about it and ruled out the latter possibility. If it was a sea snake or something like that that ate turtle eggs, it would probably swallow the shells together, and would not leave only a few eggshells.

"Look, there are turtles in there that haven't hatched yet!"

Ye Lin's eyes were bright, and he immediately saw that there were several intact turtles at the bottom of the sand pit.

Fu Ming suddenly felt relieved. Fortunately, he only hit some eggshells, otherwise he would not be ashamed to see Fuguihua bloom in the future.

Just when everyone was about to bury the mud and sand again, the turtle eggs underneath suddenly shook slightly. Fu Wan was the first to notice the movement and thought she was seeing things.

Before she could rub her eyes, the next second, the turtle shell that was lightly covered by sand suddenly cracked with a "crack", and then a turtle that was not even as big as a fist crawled out of the eggshell.

"Fuck!"

Fu Ming uttered a low cry inwardly, then quickly covered his mouth, fearing that their movement would scare the little turtle.

Not long after, the little turtle slowly crawled out of the sand pit, and then, as if being summoned, slowly crawled into the sea.

"It's amazing!"

Fu Wan was secretly amazed. It is said that the world is so big that there are all kinds of wonders. Turtles don’t need their mothers to hatch them. They can break out of their shells in the sand pit on their own.

After they are born, they will be attracted by the sea and return to the sea to live again.

Many people cannot understand this magical law of nature.
