Chapter 1279

"Uncle, you see, there are words on the shell?"

Little dream pointed to the mussel and said.

"Is it?"

Ye Guangrong squatted down to have a look, and really found that there was a word on the mussel, but the word had become unclear with the growth of the mussel, and he could only vaguely see that there was a word carved on the mussel.

It turns out that Er Wazi found this big clam in a stream in the back mountain. It was not big at that time, and its diameter was about 10 cm.

A group of bear kids play around with them. The two kids also take out a fruit knife from their home and carve their names on the clam.

The children's play was hot for a few minutes. After playing for a few minutes, the bear children thought it was boring, so they threw the clam into the lake.

I just didn't expect that in only four or five months, this clam has grown so big.

It has to be said that the nutrition of this lake is very good.

"It's really the mussel you're talking about."

Ye Rongrong said with a smile.

Now I finally understand the origin of this clam.

"Glory, such a big clam, why don't you stew it for dinner?"

Ye Xianghai suggested.

"No, you can't eat it."

Little dream said reluctantly.

"Ha ha, listen to Mengmeng, don't eat it."

Ye Xianghai said with a smile.

A mussel, to eat or not, in fact, ye Xianghai does not care.

After all, the meat of the mussel is not so delicious as the crab.

"Uncle, shall we let it go?"

Xiao Mengmeng looks at Ye Rongrong and pleads.

"OK, but before that, my uncle took something from him."

Ye Guangrong nodded and said.

Ye Guangrong brought up the big clam from the river. He never thought about eating its meat, but taking its treasure.

"Glory, do you mean there are pearls in this clam?"

Wang Bingzhen asked in surprise.

"No, where is the good luck? If you get a mussel, there will be pearls."

Ye Xianghai shook his head and said.

In the past, there were many mussels in the river. Many people brought up the mussel to feed the poultry. No one had ever heard that there were pearls in the mussel.

Ye Xianghai has heard that the pearl mussel is artificially cultivated in a special way.

"Ha ha, village head, don't say that I'm so lucky. There are pearls in the clam."

Ye Guangrong said with a smile.

"No?"

"Are there pearls?"

"I've heard of pearls growing in clams, but I haven't seen them."

"I don't know what the Pearl looks like in this clam?"

"What's the matter? I'll know later."

When ye Guangrong said that there were pearls in the mussel, everyone was surprised.

After all, I have heard that clams, mussels and other shellfish can produce pearls, but too few people have really seen them. Many people may not be able to see the shellfish that grow pearls when they deal with shellfish all their lives.

Anyway, people in Ye Guangrong's yard today have never seen shellfish that grow pearls.

This starts from the formation of pearls. Not all clams and mussels grow pearls. Usually, only clams and mussels with parasites or foreign invasion can produce pearls.

Why can only mollusks such as shellfish grow pearls? This depends on the structure of mollusks. The mantle of mollusks is divided into two sides or two pages, which encloses the viscera.

The mantle can secrete shell substrate and calcium carbide, which are transformed into crystals to form the shell.

The shell is divided into three layers, and each layer is formed at the same time. These three layers are: outer periosteum, calcium carbide layer and nacre.

When small particles of foreign matter accidentally enter the hard shells of clams and mussels, they can't get rid of the foreign matter for a while.

After the stimulation of pain and itching, the mantle soon secretes nacre to gradually surround it. Over a long time, the sand grains are covered with thick nacre, gradually forming delicate and lovely pearls.

However, wild clams, mussels and other shellfish in natural conditions can produce pearls probability is particularly low, some even did not form pearls died.

That's why people can't see pearls in shellfish bought in the market or caught in the natural environment.

It's very difficult for shellfish to form pearls in the natural environment, but the price of this kind of wild pearls is much higher than that of artificial pearls because they are rare.

Nowadays, the cheap pearls on the market are basically from artificial farms. After some shellfish are raised, the nucleus is inserted into the mantle connective tissue, and the nucleus is covered with a small piece of membrane. After a certain period of time, the cultured pearls are produced."Brother glory, this Do you really have pearls in this shell

Xiao Si'er asked excitedly.

"Of course, otherwise why do I have to work so hard to get it up?"

Ye Rongrong said positively.

In fact, when he saw this big mussel, ye Rongrong held the idea of having a try and used "detection" to check the big mussel.

At that time, ye Rongrong took a chance to see if there would be pearls in such a big clam.

Who knows this luck is so good, did not expect that there are pearls in the mussel, and there are many.

So ye Guangrong brought up the big clam.

"Glory, open the clam quickly. I have never seen the Pearl in the clam in my life!"

Ye Dequan said excitedly.

"Yes, glory, open it now."

Ye Xianghai also urged.

"Husband, open this clam, will it hurt this clam?"

Liu Qingqing asks Ye Guangrong with some worry.

After all, Liu Qingqing read about it in a book. The procedure of taking the Pearl from the mussel's body is to use a small knife to insert the knife along the water outlet of the mussel's shell, stir it twice, and cut off the two big muscles of the mussel. Then, with one point of force, the knife grabs the shell of the mussel with both hands, and the whole mussel is opened, and the pearl inside will be exposed.

As a result, the mussel died.

But my husband promised that Xiaomeng would release the clam. Adults can't cheat children.

"Don't worry, I have a way to let the mussel spit out the Pearl without hurting it."

Ye Rongrong said with a smile.

"Glory, do you really have a way to get pearls without harming mussels?"

Ye Xianghai asked curiously.

After all, ye Xianghai was told that if you want to get rid of the Pearl on the mussel, you have to open the shell of the mussel. You know, the mussel is very timid. When this person comes into contact with the mussel, the mussel will immediately close the shell and will not open even if killed.

Therefore, in order to break the shell of a mussel, it is necessary to break the shell or pry the shell directly with a sharp tool. Either way will cause the death of the mussel.

"Ha ha."

Ye Guangrong smiles and doesn't answer the question of the old village head. Instead, he says to Xiao Si'er, "go inside and get a big plastic basin."

"What are you doing with the plastic basin?"

Xiao Si'er asked curiously.

"Don't ask so many questions, just go and get them."

Ye Guangrong waved and said.

Soon Xiao Si'er took out a large plastic basin from the small yard.

Ye Guangrong asked Xiao Si'er to pour three buckets of water into the big plastic basin, and then put the big clam into the big plastic basin, just as the water completely covered the big clam.

"Husband, how can I get the Pearl out of the clam?"

Liu Qingqing asked curiously because she couldn't understand.

"You'll see it in a minute."

After ye Guangrong said something to Liu Qingqing, he said to the onlookers, "everyone step back, and when the clam spits pearls for a while, don't make any noise, or it will scare the clam and it won't spit pearls."

"Listen to the glory, everyone step back."

"All back."

……

Everyone listened to Ye Rongrong's words, stepped back a few steps, and soon a large space was left in the middle.

"Back again, back again."

Ye Rongrong looked at the distance and thought it was not enough, so he asked everyone to step back.

After all, the mussel is very alert, once the wind grass move, it will tightly close the shell does not open, and will not spit pearls.

Of course, the mussel's hearing is the same as that of many soft creatures. Its hearing is actually a kind of induction, and it is limited by the distance. As long as the distance is long, it will not respond if the sound is loud.

"How can glory make the shell spit out the Pearl?"

"You don't know. Where do I know?"

"Yes, hurry up. I'm really curious."

……

The onlookers whispered, and some even took out their mobile phones for video recording.

"Don't take video or photos with your mobile phone. It will affect the mussel to spit pearls."

Ye Rongrong saw someone take a mobile phone video, frowned and said.

It's not true that photography and video will affect the Pearl spitting of the mussel, but ye Guangrong doesn't want to be recorded in the mobile video by these boring people.

Now there are many wechat circles and QQ groups. Usually, as long as there are some new things, these people will send them to the groups and circles to share with you.

Many young women, after eating, have to take a picture of the food on the table, record it and send it to the wechat group.

If these people record the story of making mussels spit pearls and send it to the wechat group, ye Guangrong suspects that he will become an Internet celebrity.Ye Guangrong doesn't want to be a net star.

Seeing ye Rongrong say so, everyone put down their mobile phones one after another. Ye Rongrong is now in Taoyuan Village, but he has more prestige than village head Ye Xianghai.

Seeing that everyone put down his mobile phone, ye Rongrong was relieved to take out a silver needle from his pocket and a 10 cm long silver needle.

The shell of the mussel is very hard. If you want to insert such a thin silver needle into the mussel, the speed of applying the needle must be very fast. You should know that as long as the speed is fast enough, you can cut a thick iron bar with paper, let alone insert the silver needle into the shell of the mussel.
