Opening river clams on the show
Hearing the Director's words, Shi Chuhua felt helpless. It seemed she could only find a way herself.
But what was so special about this person named Nan Ye that the Director wanted to invite him?
Forget it, forget it, it's none of my business. Just do my own job...
...
Looking back at the show, after Snake Bro left, Nan Ye could leisurely fish again.
But the other six guests were not so relaxed.
Pulling peanuts, chopping firewood, cutting fish grass, picking yellow sugarcane leaves...
There was nothing they could do; this was all they knew how to do.
What made them most frustrated was that it was a thankless task. Their live stream audience fluctuated around a million viewers, which was the show's lowest level.
Looking at Nan Ye again, he could attract over three million viewers just by fishing. Comparing people, it makes one furious.
Li Jiong and Su Wen exchanged glances. Why? Only a million people watched us fish. How could Nan Ye's audience keep increasing?
Forget it, forget it. There will be a review activity tonight, and we'll know then. For now, let's just finish the work at hand...
Nan Ye by the riverbank cast his rod again.
"Folks, tell me, am I awesome or not? I even caught Snake Bro. What should I fish for next?"
[Xiao Ge is getting cocky, isn't he? Catching Snake Bro isn't enough; what else do you want to catch?]
[Exactly, there are only those things in the river. What else can you catch?]
[Xiao Ge, don't mess around. I'm afraid what you catch later will scare you to death!]
While the audience chatted, Nan Ye had another bite.
"Hey, hey, black float, big catch!"
He swung the fishing rod, pulled a few times, and from a distance, it looked like a plate.
"Is it a turtle or a soft-shelled turtle!"
Looking closer, Nan Ye followed with an exclamation: "Wow, a river mussel! And it's hooked properly! How strange!"
Moving the camera closer, the audience could also see clearly:
[Wow, a river mussel hooked properly, bigger than a palm! This delivery Xiao Ge's skill is impressive. Most people wouldn't encounter this once in their lifetime.]
[Can you even fish up river mussels? Am I too ignorant? But Xiao Ge is truly amazing. I'm really convinced this time.]
[Speaking of which, what kind of river mussel is this? Are there pearls inside? Delivery Xiao Ge, open one quickly! It's so exciting.]
[Exactly, open one! Opening a river mussel is like opening a blind box; nobody knows what's inside!]
This time, Nan Ye knew what kind of mussel it was without needing anyone to explain.
"This is a Triangle Sail Mussel, also called a Pearl Mussel. It's the main freshwater pearl oyster in our country, generally used to cultivate free pearls.
However, there's no guarantee that every mussel has a pearl inside, especially wild ones like this; it's even rarer."
As he spoke, Nan Ye took out a folding knife from his fishing rod bag. This knife is a tool used to cut the line when the hook gets stuck.
"Everyone wants to see me open the mussel?"
[Open it!]
The comments were all about opening the mussel.
Even the Director watching the screen became interested. "It's really strange; he can come up with so many tricks while fishing. This kid is a natural variety show talent."
"Should we consider inviting him again in a few episodes?"
It's not surprising that the Director had this idea. It's mainly because Nan Ye is so good at creating content. First, he caught a snake, and now he's opening a mussel. His methods are wild; ordinary celebrities can't achieve this level.
Nan Ye originally thought opening the mussel would be difficult, but who knew that as soon as he picked up the small knife, his Slaughtering Mastery automatically activated.
This works too?
Fortunately, opening the mussel was very fast. Before his tears even started flowing, he held them back.
"There's a pearl! I felt it!"
With a hard squeeze, a deformed black-purple pearl popped out.
"It's a bit small and also deformed. What a pity."
"Wait, there's another one! I didn't expect this wild mussel to produce two."
"Wow, this one's big! This one's big!"
The audience saw the pearls after Nan Ye cleaned them and exclaimed repeatedly:
[Wow, it really is big! This is almost 18mm, around 19mm. It's worth collecting.]
[This delivery Xiao Ge's luck is unmatched! Not only did he catch a river mussel, but he also found pearls. I'm envious.]
[I think Xiao Ge shouldn't deliver food anymore. You might earn more by fishing than by delivering food.]
[Hahaha, if Xiao Ge only catches trash, won't he have to eat dirt? Hahaha...]
After that, Nan Ye didn't catch anything good. Seeing that it was getting dark, he spoke to the camera:
"It's dark now, time to go back and eat. Although the process today was bizarre, the harvest was pretty good."
Just as Nan Ye was about to reel in his rod, the float disappeared.
"Wow, where's my float? Did it sink? Is it a big black float?"
Nan Ye pulled upwards, "There's something, there's something! It's heavy!"
"What is this now!"
A black garbage bag appeared in the live stream. The opening was tied tightly, as if the contents inside were very important.
"Do you think I should open it?"
[Open it! What are you afraid of? So many people are watching together!]
[Given Xiao Ge's luck today, I don't think he'll find dead cats or dogs inside, haha.]
[Hiss, I suddenly feel a chill down my spine. It's better not to open it. I'm scared.]
When he first picked it up, Nan Ye touched it and felt that it contained hard objects, so there wouldn't be any disgusting scenes of dead cats or dogs.
Since it wouldn't disgust the audience, opening this bag became inevitable.
Just then, the cameraman suddenly handed him a pair of white gloves.
Nan Ye looked at the gloves, a bit confused. "No, why do you have something like this?"
"It's for disassembling the camera. I usually carry it with me."
So that's it. This cameraman is very dedicated.
After putting on the gloves, Nan Ye spoke to the camera: "For various considerations, I've put on gloves now. Let's see what's inside."
At this moment, someone unexpected suddenly appeared in the live stream.
His online name was: Officer Ding Wu.
Officer Ding Wu's usual job is to educate everyone about the law online. He also talks about common online fraud schemes, examples, dangers, and how to deal with them, to prevent more people from being tricked.
Many people know him. He's full of integrity, handsome, and very eloquent. He's considered a minor internet celebrity in the police force.
Today, he was preparing to record a video. As soon as he opened TikTok, he saw Nan Ye fishing up a garbage bag.
Seeing how complicated the bag's opening was tied, his years of experience made him feel that things weren't that simple, so he clicked into the live stream.
When he saw Nan Ye take out the gloves, he couldn't help but comment.
Officer Ding Wu: "This streamer did well. In the outdoors, you should have this kind of precautionary awareness."
"Nobody knows what's inside a garbage bag. Firstly, it can prevent you from getting hurt. Secondly, it ensures you don't leave fingerprints on it, preventing difficulties in explaining things later."
As soon as Officer Ding Wu appeared, the live stream quickly became lively:
[Officer Ding Wu is praising the delivery Xiao Ge. Everyone should learn from him in the future.]
[I didn't expect Officer Ding Wu to watch Xiao Ge's live stream. Interesting.]
[I don't know why, but now I'm even more curious about what's inside the bag!]
