Chapter 118 The Harvest of Diving
Zhou Guohua looked at Wen Wan with a livid face, and asked in a low voice: "Are we still going to follow and take a look?"
Yes, if you follow, you can only watch. Look!
But he also gave him a red envelope when he borrowed the boat. It cost him twenty yuan, not counting the gas fee.
Twenty yuan is not much, but it is not much. A net of fish is enough for him, but it is not much.
Their family was not separated, and he was not married. Every time he went to sea, he was given two yuan as pocket money, and the other money was kept for him to use for his wedding.
Although he usually goes out to sea every day without spending much money and saves everything, isn’t he the one he’s dating now? It will definitely cost more in the future, so he wants to earn it back.
Wenwan looked at the island in the distance, "Let's go to that island and have a look."
It was impossible to leave so quickly. She wanted to see what they could do if they dived to the bottom of the sea. To what.
Last night, she dreamed that Zhou Chenglei picked up a clump of red coral.
Red coral is the most valuable coral and is known as the "undersea ruby".
In modern times, she heard that one gram of coral is equal to one tael of gold.
In her last life, Wen Wan heard from people in the village that Zhou Chenglei’s house had a large red coral ornament worth tens of millions.
That was obtained by Zhou Chenglei when he went to sea when he was young.
In his dream, Zhou Chenglei picked up red coral on the beach, so let’s go to that island to see it!

On the Zhou family's boat
Jiang Xia held Amy's hand and watched Zhou Chenglei wearing diving equipment take Jill and John into the sea.
Gill and John gave them two sets of diving equipment, a five-piece set, packed in a box, which looked expensive at first glance.
One set of men's clothes and one set of women's clothes.
The women's suit originally belonged to Jill's wife, but she had something to do and returned to China, but she also bought it new.
The men's suit was bought by John from a friend and is also new.
They came this time with several people, some came to buy boats, and some came to inspect and plan to open a factory in China.
Hearing that there was a sea here, a few people prepared diving equipment. However, when they arrived, they couldn't find a yacht to go out to sea, so John was able to buy diving equipment from a friend who suddenly had to go back to China.
Jiang Xia has never dived in the water before, and she really wants to try it, but Amy is here and it is hard to leave her little guest to go into the water by herself.
So Jiang Xia waited for them to go into the water and took Amy fishing. Zhou Chengxin couldn't wait to accompany him. No, it wasn't because he couldn't wait, but he was entrusted by Zhou Chenglei to accompany Jiang Xia on fishing!
Zhou Chenglei took Jill and John down to the seabed about 100 meters away. As soon as they reached the sea, they saw several large lobsters parading on the seabed.
He swam over, grabbed the lobster and put it into the net bag with a skillful movement.
Gill and John also saw it, and they immediately went after the lobster.
Zhou Chenglei was not to be outdone. After catching one, he went to catch the second one. Then he grabbed two dragon whiskers from the cracks in the rocks and pulled out one!
We caught three in total, all quite big, weighing about two kilograms.
Then he saw several black caterpillar-like things crawling on the white sand.
It’s a sea cucumber!
Eating this food is good for your health and can strengthen your body.
Jiangxia has a fever so easily because her body is delicate, so she should eat more sea cucumbers.
He swam over and picked up the sea cucumbers one by one.
It must be said that in this era, there are still quite abundant fish on the bottom of the sea.
He walked forward and encountered sea cucumbers, starfish, conchs, crabs, scallops, geoducks... and didn't miss any of them!
These are goods that they would never be able to catch even if they wanted to.
Almost half an hour later, both of the net bags Zhou Chenglei brought were full. He looked at John and Jill and gestured to them to come up.
Both of them had good harvests, but not as exaggerated as Zhou Chenglei. He returned the gesture and followed him upstream.
Zhou's father and Zhou Chengxin were relieved when they saw them swimming up, and quickly took their net bags.
Jiang Xia found that the three of them had a bag full of goods, and they were all good things, and she smiled with crooked eyes. Amy excitedly called Daddy on the boat and told Jill that she and Jiang Xia went fishing together and caught many fish and took many photos.
She danced and danced to describe how good she was at fishing!
Jill was happy to see her daughter so happy, and thought that she must express her gratitude to Jiang Xia.
Zhou Chenglei looked at Jill and John and asked them if they wanted to continue going to the bottom of the sea or go back to the boat to have a rest.
John hadn’t had enough fun yet, so he gestured to go back to the bottom of the sea.
Gill was originally worried that his daughter would be lonely and wanted to go back to the boat, but now that Amy and Jiang Xia were obviously having a lot of fun, he signaled to Amy that he would go to the bottom of the sea again.
Amy also enjoys fishing, and she is happy when she is happy.
So the three of them went to the bottom of the sea again.
This time Zhou Chenglei swam farther. He saw many black sea urchins on the rocks and hooked them into the net bag one by one.
Later, a dragon swam out of the cracks in the rocks. He chased the dragon even further, and then he watched the dragon swim into a reef cave.
The dark hole is covered with abalone.
Many are very large.
Zhou Chenglei was about to swim over, when both John and Jill swam over. They were not very interested in seeing those abalones.
They like to eat lobster, but not abalone.
It was almost half an hour after they came down this time. They couldn't stand it anymore and used hand signals to indicate that they wanted to go up.
Zhou Chenglei glanced around, recognized the environment, and followed them up.
Next time he brings Jiang Xia here, she will be very happy to see this Abalone Mountain.
Zhou Chenglei could imagine Jiang Xia's eyes shining with surprise.
He couldn't wait to swim up.
The three of them swam out of the sea. After Zhou’s father and Zhou Chengxin took their net bags, they pulled them on board.
Jiang Xia was surprised to see Zhou Chenglei catch so many sea urchins this time.
On the contrary, John and Jill had nothing in their net bags, only some sea cucumbers, and they just wanted to catch lobsters.
They picked these sea cucumbers because they saw Zhou Chenglei had picked up a lot just now.
Jiang Xia glanced at the time, it was already past eleven o'clock, and asked: "Shall we go to the island to cook something to eat?"
Jill and John immediately said: "Okay!"
So Father Zhou sailed the boat to an isolated island in the distance.
When the ship docked, Wen Wan and Zhou Guohua had already explored the entire island, but found nothing valuable.
Wenwan searched the entire beach but could not find the red coral.
There were quite a few mussels and barnacles, so they picked up some mussels and took them back.
There is only one convenient place to park a boat on the isolated island, so the two boats parked together.
When Wen Wan walked to the fishing boat, she saw Zhou Chenglei jump off the boat, and then reached out to pick up Jiang Xia.
She pursed her lips, silently looked away, and rolled her eyes at the sea: Hypocritical!
Suddenly, Wen Wan felt a pain in the sole of her foot. She felt something knocking on her foot. She moved her foot away, looked down and found a little red on the surface of the sand.
Wen Wan’s heart is beating fast!
I checked online and found that the deepest recorded dive by a person without equipment is 113 meters. This was without equipment. I don’t know if this data is true or not, but I will write it according to this standard! If there is any mistake, please correct me.
