Chapter 807: Sea Sand Shellfish and Thick Flesh Starfish
To be honest, the quality of this necklace is not that good.
If nothing else, just talking about the jewelry that Ai Luo owns in his hometown, the worst necklace among them is probably ten times better than this one.
The size of each bead on the necklace is not very uniform, which makes it look like some are big and some are small, which is very uneven. Moreover, the color of each bead is not very uniform, and some appear to be smaller.
Transparent, and some look darker. Obviously, the person selling this necklace never thought about selling this necklace at a good price, but randomly found some leftover sea sand beads, and then
Randomly strung together.
However, even so, Suta, who was holding the necklace, had a blush on his face and looked very happy.
Ai Luo took the necklace and looked at it. The largest bead on it was about the size of a pinky fingernail, and the smaller one was about half the size.
He nodded and asked Suta to take the necklace back. Suta nodded and put the necklace into the box very carefully.
"President, do you see anything?"
Suta didn't rush to close the box, but looked to see if there was anything else Ai Luo wanted to prepare.
Aero looked at the box, holding his chin and thinking for a moment.
At the same time, some members of other guilds have finished their meals and walked out of the cafeteria. It can be seen that these guilds are obviously the type who want to do things as quickly as possible without thinking first.
Seeing Ai Luo's silence, Brad on the side also glanced at the other guild members who were leaving, and said: "Guild President, should we set off first? Let's talk after we get to the place? Didn't we already inquire about the place with the most sea sand shells yesterday?
Where is the place?"
Ai Luo waved his hand and said: "There's no rush. Let's figure things out first before taking action. It won't waste much time."
With that said, Ai Luo patted the "Natural History Illustrated Book" in his hand. If it weren't for the so-called guide book that contained so few introductions about the two kinds of monsters, he wouldn't need to make a decision here now.
"Huh... Margaux, have you thought of anything? Tell me."
After thinking for a long time, Ai Luo decided to ask everyone first.
Margo nodded slightly, glanced at the sea sand bead necklace, and said: "There is something I may say now that may be a little rude. Suta, although you seem to be very precious about this sea sand bead necklace.
It looks like it, but I want to say that sea sand beads are really not very expensive jewelry. Even among marine jewelry, they are a large-volume and low-quality product."
To be honest, when he heard Margaux say this at first, Ai Luo was a little nervous. However, when he saw that Suta did not show any surprise or anger, he felt a little relieved.
"I know." Suta's mouth under the bangs was slightly raised, still showing a happy smile, "My husband doesn't have much money to begin with. I know this."
Seeing that Suta didn't have any overreaction, Margo breathed a sigh of relief and started to open up the topic——
"The production of sea sand beads is very large. One sea sand oyster can produce at least eight to ten sea sand beads. Moreover, the time for sea sand oysters to produce beads is relatively short, only one year. These sea sand oysters can produce at least eight to ten sea sand beads.
You only need to pour the sand clams into the seawater, and you don’t have to worry about them slipping away, so the output is basically very stable.”
"Because of this, it is actually not difficult to get enough sea sand beads. As long as you designate an area for breeding and throw in thousands of sea sand shells, you can collect enough sea sand beads in a year.
Sand beads.”
"But what I want to talk about is not simply about the production of sea sand beads. It's about their quality."
Margo's brows wrinkled slightly, looking a little worried——
"Because the output is large, it is not difficult to unify the specifications. This also means that the price of sea sand beads itself is not very high. If it were my previous inventory, an emerald necklace alone would probably cost more than this.
There are ten thousand sea sand beads of different sizes. Not to mention anything else, just the pearl necklace you gave me, President, the pearls can already outstrip the sea sand beads by several blocks."
This was the first time Suta knew about this matter. She looked at Ai Luo next to her with a little surprise, and said with a slightly questioning voice: "President... give Miss Margaux a necklace?"
Margaux was a little proud at first, but after seeing that Ai Luo was not in a joking mood, she coughed slightly and continued: "In other words, we are going to do something that is not of much value, and it seems that it is not of much value.
It’s not a very difficult thing. But if it comes to this, I feel a little strange.”
"If...I mean if...if this task is simply proposed, then forget it, just treat it as a simple exam task."
"But we also saw yesterday and the day before yesterday that the first game of this guild championship game was obviously the organizer of this game, that is, our royal family was taking the opportunity to make money and make a lot of money. But this time
In the second game, why are we so easily asked to do something that is not very difficult and has no meaning?"
I have to say that Ai Luo's view of Margaux is correct.
Although this priest is sometimes a little confused on strategic issues and cannot see far away places.
But as long as there are immediate benefits, she can still find out the problems.
This is why Arrow is thinking about this issue now.
Sea sand beads are not expensive, not to mention that the organizer does not limit the color and size of sea sand beads. In other words, you can pull out all the shaped or unformed beads inside by casually breaking open a sea sand shell.
In this way, the task of one hundred sea sand beads can be easily accomplished. I believe it won't take a day... no, it won't even take half a day to solve this matter.
But then again, sea sand beads are so easy to obtain. Although the number is limited to 10,000, it is not difficult for those big guilds to get 5,000 sea sand beads in a day. In this way,
The task can be completed in just two days.
But in this case, the real goal of this mission...could it be...
Ai Luo had an idea in his mind, and then nodded slightly: "I have almost thought of a direction. Now, let's set off to the breeding ground of sea sand clams."
————
The breeding place for sea sand clams is not along the coast of Hanhai City, but on a remote island about two hours away from Hanhai City.
Although it is a small island in the distance, it is also within the urban influence range of Hanhai City, so there are people living on the island, and there are also normal commercial docks and daily necessities.
Viscount Reach generously lent his Siren Queen and let the Mermaid Song come to this port on this sailing ship.
But as soon as he arrived at the port, the first question immediately put Airo in trouble.
"Go away, go away! Don't stop here! It's full here! Don't squeeze in anymore!"
The island's port was not big to begin with, but the sudden influx of large numbers of guild ships instantly blocked the docks.
The sailors on the shore yelled loudly to stop these ships from coming closer. But they still couldn't bear it and many guilds rushed here with their heads sharpened.
After all, there are only a hundred sea sand beads. But that thick fleshy starfish that I don’t know what it is needs to kill two hundred.
Seeing that there was nowhere to park the boat, Arrow frowned and asked Viscount Rich to go around the back of the island.
After arriving at the back of the coast, Ai Luo could see that there were large areas of nursery fields, enclosing a large shallow sea area radiating from the island.
However, there are not many guilds searching for sea sand shells here, only a few people. Looking at the entrance, there are several guild members blocking the entrances of various passages. This makes those guilds want to
If you want to rush in, you must attack them. Once you attack them, you will naturally be disqualified from the competition.
Ai Luo looked around for a moment and determined that he would definitely not get any benefits here. He could only frown and let the ship go to the next breeding ground for breeding sea sand clams.
However, after walking through three breeding grounds in a row, Ai Luo finally confirmed this - there is a large guild that is trying its best to reserve all the sea shells in the breeding ground, hoping to eliminate other small guilds as much as possible.
Seeing this, Airl stopped struggling. He simply sat down on the deck, folded his hands on his chest, and began to think hard.
"What are you thinking about? Brother President."
Coco liked to be next to her president the most, so she immediately ran over and sat down next to Ai Luo.
Ai Luo smiled slightly, thought for a moment, and said, "I was thinking about the thick-fleshed starfish."
"Thick-fleshed starfish? What on earth is that thing? I've never heard of such a thing."
Coco seemed a little curious.
Ai Luo smiled, stretched out his hand and touched her head gently, and said with a smile: "Thick-fleshed starfish, how should I put it? Well... I should say, it is a kind of food. It is an edible food.
."
"Ingredients?!"
As soon as she heard that the so-called thick-fleshed starfish was an ingredient, Coco's eyes immediately started to light up!
Ai Luo smiled and continued: "But although it is said to be an ingredient, people who really know how to eat such starfish will not think about how to cook them properly."
"Although I have never seen a thick-fleshed starfish alive, I bought a small piece of starfish before and wanted to see if it tastes good."
"The boss picked up the knife and cut a piece directly for me. I remember clearly that each tentacle of the thick-fleshed starfish was bulging with meat. It looked like there was a lot of meat. But when you touch it with your hand, you will notice it.
