"Huh? That side is open."
The area beyond the rock where the traps were set was revealed.
"Meow!"
Mongchi swiftly ran out.
Hae-jun also followed diligently.
A moment later, Mongchi's white soles were covered in mud when he returned.
"Mudflat?"
"Meow~."
As they hurriedly crossed the rock reef, a mudflat spread out before them.
It wasn't the kind of mud that you would sink into, but rather soft mud that was perfect for walking.
Hae-jun bent down and observed it closely, noticing that there were many holes.
'Could there be clams in a place like this?'
Curious, he dug into the mud with his hand.
"A clam!"
"Meow!"
He caught a clam that was black inside and white around the edges, just like the ring that appears when the moon covers the sun during a solar eclipse.
<Oyster - C-Rank>
"Clams are coming out. Should we dig for other things too?"
"Nya!"
Ha-jun put the fish trap and fishing rod down on the mud, then rolled up his sleeves and legs and began to dig for clams in earnest.
He didn't have a hoe, but he dug into the mud with a pickaxe that he had prepared to dig for abalone in the sea.
"I got one."
"Meow! Meow!"
<Oyster - E-Rank>
<Manila Clam - D-Rank>
<Dongbaek Clam - D-Rank>
Clams of various sizes, from the size of a child's fist to the size of a thumbnail, were caught.
'This is fun.'
It was a lot of fun to squat down and dig holes.
After 10 minutes, Hae-jun had caught 16 clams. He set up the fish trap on the rock reef and continued to dig for clams.
After about 2 hours of digging, he had caught enough clams to fill a large net.
"I caught too many."
After retrieving the fish trap, he realized that he had caught too many rockfish, shrimp, and clams.
He could sell the rockfish and shrimp today, but the clams were difficult to dispose of.
"In that case, we're having a clam steamed party today."
James and Uncle Haas, who had worked hard to build the glass greenhouse. And the farm family. Hae-jun decided to make steamed clams for them.
It was easy to make it taste good with just white wine and garlic, and it was James' favorite snack.
"While we're at it, we could slice the rockfish into sashimi and eat it."
Without the essential seasonings like soy sauce or gochujang, the sashimi wouldn't taste good.
Not only that, but all the seafood, such as the calms, sea urchin, and abalone, was so fresh that it couldn't be tasted anywhere else, so Cha Ha-jun's mind was filled with thoughts of sashimi.
'No, I should take this opportunity to try making soy sauce.'
It seemed like a good idea to try it while he thought of it.
Once he got white soybeans, barley, and chili peppers, he could make any sauce he wanted.
He can make soy sauce and soybean paste from soybeans, and make Red chilli paste by mixing ground dried peppers with malt syrup and soybean powder.
He also had a maturation cave, so if he could just get the ingredients, he could make it in a few days.
If he asked Captain Mulvia, he might be able to get them.
"I'll definitely have to ask him next time. The captain can get anything easily. If I had a cell phone here, I could just contact him and ask him to get it for me..."
Hae-jun, who had been muttering to himself, suddenly recalled what Uncle Neri of the Hamong Store had said.
- A letter arrived from the Melvia Chamber of Commerce. It came a few days ago, but I forgot all about it because I was making ham.
"A letter!."
He ran straight to the village.
Anyway, I had to invite Neri Ajusshi to the clam party, so he stopped by.
"Uncle."
"What's the matter? Why did you come in such a hurry?"
"Please stop by the farm this evening."
"Are you going to grill pork belly?"
"Today, we have even more delicious steamed clams."
"Oh~ I'm looking forward to it."
Neri replied with his eyes sparkling.
The food he made was always the best.
"And is there a way to contact Captain Mulvia?"
"You can just send a letter."
"Then please take this note."
Cha Hae-jun handed Neri a note with the necessary ingredients written on it.
"Huh? That side is open."
The area beyond the rock where the traps were set was revealed.
"Meow!"
Mongchi swiftly ran out.
