Whether it is the King of the Warblers or the Thick-shelled Sea Chrysanthemum Clam, they both have another famous name in Europe, called red snail.
Some red snails are very expensive.
Therefore, some people often pass off common sea clams as the most expensive red snails and sell them to people who do not know the value of the goods.
Xiang Yang whispered to Wu Shiwen: "Sea Chrysanthemum includes all shellfish of the genus Sea Chrysanthemum. Although these shellfish can all be called red snails and their nutritional values are not much different, they are worlds apart in the world of ornamental fish."
Some red snails are widely distributed in tropical and subtropical waters around the world, and are even very common on the shores. Those red snails are not worth much at all, and their price is closely related to their appearance.
So, when Gao Chuang said that he wanted to see the chrysanthemum-shaped sea chrysanthemum clam, Ge Lan immediately looked unhappy.
"Gao, I also have sea chrysanthemum clams. I'll take you to see them later. How about you take a look at these sea chrysanthemum clams first?"
"Look, the shells of these sea clams are large and convex with a red tint. They look like hamburgers, and they are obviously the best of the sea clams." Ge Lan said, pointing to an oversized water tank.
Xiang Yang took a look into the water tank.
Indeed, they are all wild and natural sea clams, and they are all very large and fat enough to be spherical.
Wu Shiwen whispered, "These sea chrysanthemum clams look very similar to oysters, but they are much larger than oysters, and their shells are also harder and thicker than oysters. In addition, the shells of these sea chrysanthemum clams are all red, while oyster shells are not so bright."
Xiang Yang whispered, "These are the most common thick-shelled sea chrysanthemum clams, but they are quite large and can be considered the best among the thick-shelled sea chrysanthemum clams."
Speaking of sea chrysanthemum clams, there is actually something very interesting.
That is the top of the shell of the sea clam, which is located in the middle of the dorsal edge, and there is no obvious difference between the front and back ears.
This is because the sea chrysanthemum clam is extremely homesick.
If we were to rank all animals, the sea chrysanthemum clam would definitely be ranked first.
The sea chrysanthemum clam is very reluctant to leave its hometown. In order to avoid being washed away by the ocean current, the cautious sea chrysanthemum clam will stick its right shell firmly to the rocks, corals and other objects in its hometown, and stay in the same place all its life.
Gao Chuang's eyes lit up when he saw these sea clams, because each of them was so fat.
But Gao Chuang soon became nonchalant, "Brother Ge Lan, this is a thick-shelled sea chrysanthemum clam, it's not worth much, I want to see the King of Warblers sea chrysanthemum clam."
"Gao, you're wrong. This is not an ordinary thick-shelled sea chrysanthemum clam. This is a top-quality hamburger sea chrysanthemum clam. I bought each one of them at a high price. Look at this one, it has a fiery red shell with white spots on it, which looks like sesame paste, and the green moss on it is just like chopped green onions, and its fiery red tender meat is absolutely the best of the best." Ge Lan immediately retorted.
Xiang Yang curled his lips, thinking that every sea chrysanthemum clam's shell surface has a well-developed radial main auxiliaries, and there are several small auxiliaries between each main auxiliaries. The small auxiliaries also have thorn-like protrusions of varying lengths. Isn't this the normal appearance of a normal thick-shelled sea chrysanthemum clam
What's there to say about this? It would be better to just say that each of these sea clams is very plump and then talk about the price directly.
In fact, Xiang Yang was very interested in these sea clams. Even the thick-shelled sea clams tasted delicious.
Of course, it would be even better if it was the Yingwang Sea Chrysanthemum Clam.
The thorn-like protrusions on the shell of the Yingwanghai clam are not only long but also curved, and their appearance resembles the petals of a blooming chrysanthemum. Not only is the appearance brightly colored, but the inside of the shell also has a pearly luster.
When alive, it not only tastes delicious, but is also a very valuable ornamental seafood.
Even after death, its shells are of great collectible value, and their pearl-like color is loved by European noblewomen.
The Hamburger Sea Chrysanthemum Clam, represented by the thick-shelled Sea Chrysanthemum Clam, is a completely different style from the Chrysanthemum Sea Chrysanthemum Clam.
The appearance of the Hamburger Sea Chrysanthemum Clam resembles a hamburger, thick and clumsy, and is completely unlike the light and stylish chrysanthemum.
However, some of the Hamburg sea clams are very brightly colored.
Some hamburger sea clams not only have very bright body colors, but also can invite many external aids to decorate themselves, such as seaweed, seaweed, etc., making the hamburger sea clams look more like a hamburger, and a hamburger sprinkled with chopped green onions and sesame seeds.
Gao Chuang still refused to give in. He said, "Ge Lan, you are right, but I still think the chrysanthemum sea clam is better looking than this hamburger sea clam."
Ge Lan spread his hands, blinked his blue eyes, and then said with an innocent look on his face: "Chrysanthemums emphasize curves, and hamburgers emphasize colors. When you can't have both, I think only one kind of beauty can be considered perfect."
"Huh?" Xiang Yang looked at Ge Lan with some surprise.
"Brother Yang, what's wrong?" Wu Shiwen asked immediately.
Xiang Yang frowned and said, "That foreigner seems to have been emphasizing that the Hamburg Sea Chrysanthemum Clam is very beautiful in appearance."
Wu Shiwen laughed immediately after hearing this. "Hey, what's so strange about this? This is a common way of doing business. If you don't say your product is good-looking when you sell it, how can you say it's ugly?"
"I won't tell you."
Xiang Yang shook his head. "Because the Hamburger Sea Chrysanthemum Clam is not a seafood for viewing. When it grows to this size, there is no need to care about its appearance. It can be considered a top-quality seafood in itself."
Wu Shiwen immediately asked in confusion: "Are these hamburger-like things delicious?"
Xiang Yang looked at Wu Shiwen in surprise, "You don't know?"
"What do I want to know?" Wu Shiwen asked puzzledly.
Xiang Yang was silent for a moment, then asked, "I wonder if you have heard of Yuanbei?"
Wu Shiwen nodded immediately, "Of course I've heard of it. This is one of the famous eight delicacies of the sea. Why are you talking about this?"
Xiang Yang was speechless and said, "Hamburger sea clams are the raw materials of scallops. What do you think I am talking about scallops for?"
"What?" Wu Shiwen exclaimed suddenly, and even his eyes changed when he looked at those hamburger sea clams.
Not far away, Ge Lan looked over here in confusion, "Wu, my friend, what's wrong with you? Is there anything I can help you with?"
Wu Shiwen finally realized that he had lost his composure. He quickly shook his head and pointed at a hamburger sea clam and said, "No, I was just scared by the small green particles on the sea clam. I have trypophobia."
Ge Lan looked back and immediately said, "Wu, don't be afraid. This is just seaweed. I can sell this one to you at a lower price. Even though these sea clams may not look good, they taste good."
