I have a sea in ancient times

Chapter 53 Fire Roasted Turtle Feet (please recommend tickets)
Being a boss is cool, Lu Hai hardly needs to work on his own, and Agui tidied up the shop clearly, including changing the signboards. He rushed to do it. OK.

Leave the chores to Queen Agui.

Lu Hai checked the time. If he went back earlier, he might be able to go to the folding space to make a batch of goods.

After returning home.

Lu Hai changed into the tricycle, went to the hardware store in the town to buy a batch of net ropes, and went to the fishing tackle store to buy some equipment for catching the sea.

Now that there is a store, and the second online shopping mall is also up, the supply of seafood must keep up.

Lu Hai bought a lot of modified mouse cages, which can be used to catch mud crabs, which is easier, but digging holes is too hard, so he bought a dozen more ground cages by the way.

This time a total of about 3000 yuan was spent, plus the money earned yesterday and the money given by Lao Lu, Lu Hai still has 53201 yuan.

Seeing that there was so much money left, Lu Hai took out 3 yuan to increase the exploration space to 100 mu of land, and the remaining [-] yuan was used as spare funds.

[Congratulations to the explorer: Lu Hai, the space level has been upgraded to level 3]
-
Explorer: Land and Sea
Personal property: 23201 yuan

Space level: level 3

Exploration space: 100 acres of land
Cooldown time: 22 hour
[Note ①: The next level of space level will be opened when the explorer owns 500 mu of land. 】

[Remark ②: Since the space level is upgraded to level 3, the cooling time is shortened by 1 hour. 】

[Friendly reminder: As the exploration space expands, explorers are requested to pay attention to personal safety and guard against beasts in the exploration space. 】
-
This friendly reminder made Lu Hai frown. It is true that the greater the exploration space, the greater the risk he faces.

All in all, proceed with caution.

After Lu Hai entered the folding space, as usual, he first checked the net ropes in the lower safety zone to see if they were damaged by animals.

After confirming the safety, Lu Hai unloaded a new batch of net ropes.

After unloading, Lu Hai looked around the safe area, but he didn't see the little wild boar.

Where did you go?
The net rope is not broken, it is impossible for it to escape, Lu Hai looked up at the sky, could it be so unlucky to be snatched away by an eagle in the sky?

Lu Hai went to the broken tent and looked at it, then lifted it up, and found that the little wild boar had dug a hole at the bottom of the tent and hid it in.

I didn't expect this pig to be very smart.

And the eel he threw yesterday was also eaten by it with only one head left.

Next, Lu Hai threw out a few specially bought sweet potatoes. If he really wanted to raise them, Lu Hai thought it would be better to let him eat vegetarian food, otherwise, if he really gave himself a bite one day, the gain would not be worth the loss.

Then, Lu Hai opened the door of the safe area, and then carefully inspected the exploration space on a tricycle.

The 100 mu of land is neither big nor small. It is about the size of 10 football fields. Fortunately, I have a tricycle, and I can finish the inspection in two or three rides.

Today is still very peaceful, no beasts were found.

But my intuition tells Lu Hai that it will be a matter of time before the beast is discovered. After all, the sea resources here are so rich, and the corresponding land resources are not much less.

Lu Hai looked at the beach. Luckily, there were significantly fewer horseshoe crabs today. According to the situation, most horseshoe crabs had completed the task of reproducing offspring.

However, in this feast of reproduction, a considerable number of horseshoe crabs paid the price of their lives, and some were unable to turn over, and were forced to die by the sun.

Some were killed by egrets and skuas. On the beach, there are still many seabirds enjoying this free meal.

Lu Hai observed the ebb and flow of the tide. Today is a live flood. Unlike the dead flood a few days ago, the ebb and flow of the tide is still obvious. Generally, fishermen on the seaside are used to lowering their baskets at high tides and harvesting at ebb tides.

However, it will take at least ten hours to go up and down. The current time is three o'clock in the afternoon. If the old method is followed, it will be at least early in the morning to put away the ground cage.

In addition to the limitation of cooling time, Lu Hai can't wait for the ebb tide to come in and harvest. If it exceeds 12 hours, all the seafood in the ground cage will be exposed to the sun and die in the sun.

Lu Hai looked at the sea in front of him. He was still too short of money. If he had money, he could buy more exploration space and go directly to the deep sea area to go to the underground cage, and there would be no troubles.

Forget it, it will be later later.

Lu Hai threw the ground cages into the sea, and then buried all the modified mouse traps in the area where blue crabs infested the shore.

In the end, he brought a tool for prying oysters and started a hard life as a tool worker. The moment the broken blisters in his palm touched the sea water, Lu Hai gritted his teeth, really wanting to curse.

At noon on oyster prying day,
Drops of sweat drop to the ground,
Who knows the oysters on the plate,
Every grain is hard work.

Lu Hai felt that he might be the protagonist of the most difficult novel, and every penny he earned was hard money. It would be great if he could change the [money spending system] for himself.

It may be because of what makes perfect, Lu Hai found that the speed of digging oysters was significantly faster this time. In less than an hour, he had already dug two large barrels, about 300 oysters.

I picked up a lot of snails along the way.

There are sea snails, snails, coconut snails, and seven or eight wild sea cucumbers. They seem to be quite big. Most of the yellow croakers were eaten by Lao Lu last time. These few sea cucumbers can give my mother a supplement.

When digging to the back, Lu Hai's eyes lit up, and he accidentally found a pile of very ugly shells growing on the cliff in front of him.

After seeing this thing, Lu Hai couldn't help swallowing his saliva. Just now he was thinking about what to eat, but the food appeared when he didn't think about it. Lu Hai really loves this folding space, it has everything.

This kind of shell looks ugly, a bit like a palm, and a bit like a pen holder. It is called "turtle feet" in their local area, and its scientific name is barnacles.

However, it is much different from the gooseneck barnacle, which is called "hell delicacy". The tortoise's feet are relatively small, and the meat grows at the back.

This kind of thing is relatively rare, and the general seafood market will not sell it. It can only be found in restaurants or farmhouses near the sea. I heard that a certain treasure is selling it.

Turtle feet are very delicious. They can be fried or steamed. The only disadvantage is that there is too little meat, and you can't dig out a piece of meat from a large plate of turtle feet.

Facing the temptation of delicious food, Lu Hai jumped out of the tool man mode and became a diligent gourmet.

He picked up some firewood on the shore, moved to the bottom of these turtle feet, and then lit the firewood.

Let the flames continue to smoke these delicacies that grow on the reef, and the tortoise feet will keep twisting their bodies due to being baked by the flames.

At the same time, the juice will continue to drip. Generally, it is enough to bake for more than ten minutes. At this time, the tortoise's feet can be broken off by hand without prying at all.

The tortoise's feet are not big, but the place where they can eat is even smaller. If you want to eat it, you have to break off the hard shell that looks a bit like snake skin under the shell.

After breaking it apart, a white meat column about two to three centimeters will be exposed, and this is where it can be eaten.

One bite, the taste is very firm and Q-bomb. It feels very similar to the taste of fresh shrimp. One bite is like cracking melon seeds. Although it can't make you full, it is very refreshing.
