Chapter 746: Chapter 458: If we can’t do 052D, can we do something smaller?_3
Evie insisted, and her friends gathered around.
Sean was looking at the people who seemed like college students on a group tour, and didn’t say much more. He picked up the package and said to Evie:
"You guys go ahead and have fun, I still have to buy some things."
Evie didn’t want to part ways, but seeing Sean had already walked away, she joined her companions and continued shopping.
However, she still glanced at Sean’s figure from time to time. At this point, Sean was already squatting at a hawksbill stall.
"I bet that guy is a trafficker. He must have special channels to bring things into the country." The earlier glasses-wearing boy suddenly analyzed.
"A trafficker? It doesn’t seem like it." Evie didn’t believe from the bottom of her heart that Sean was a smuggler.
"Then how do you explain him buying so much? Even if it’s for home use, it can’t be that much, right? And you see..."
The glasses-wearing boy confidently said:
"Did you notice? He was using old banknotes. We exchanged new ones when we came, so where do you think he got so many old banknotes from?"
Then he pointed to Sean in the distance at the stall:
"Did you see? He’s buying hawksbill again. That stuff is also illegal... no trade, no killing!"
Elijah chuckled when he heard it, but didn’t say anything, and went over.
The momentum that the glasses-wearing boy had built up was gone because of Elijah’s laughter, and he was somewhat unconvinced. However, seeing Elijah’s physique and appearance, he didn’t dare to go argue.
"Minding someone else’s business." Douglas Cooper passed by, threw out a sentence, and left.
This was unbearable!
The glasses-wearing boy was ready to debate, which was his strong suit. But when Douglas turned to look at him, his steps stopped right away.
He seemed to understand the meaning in Douglas’s eyes: come over here and I won’t beat you to death!
That look was full of murderous intent!
Evie was hesitant, but in the end, she didn’t catch up to continue talking with Sean.
Sean didn’t pay much attention, he didn’t care about the "no trade, no killing" thing. Anyway, it wasn’t in the country, and it wasn’t doing anything immoral.
Moreover, the statement should be directed at the Japanese in Dolphin Bay, who really needed persuasion.
What he did, it didn’t count for anything!
Hawksbill is a type of sea turtle - actually, it’s just a kind of sea turtle.
Sean didn’t know that before and thought it was a shell. He also mixed it up with the Buddhist seven treasures, tridacna, due to not understanding it before.
Hawksbill is a sea turtle, and its shell can be used for medicine and decorations.
This stall had a large shell about a meter in diameter, which was a fine item.
Sean asked for the price, more than 1,000 dollars, and took it directly.
What a bargain!
He waved his hand, and Lincoln went to the port to get an electric vehicle to carry the item away.
Then he really ran into a tridacna!
This thing is the largest shellfish in the ocean, known as the king of shells. It’s even better than the shellfish!
The one before them was not particularly large, but it was already 60 to 70 cm. It was said that the largest could grow to about a meter.
It hadn’t been cleaned well, but one could see it was peacock blue. Sean could imagine how beautiful it would be after it was cleaned up.
It would be pleasing to the eye if it was displayed at home!
He bought that too.
After buying several items that were not allowed to be traded freely in the country, Sean suddenly became the subject of discussion among everyone at the stall.
Sean knew that it was not appropriate to continue shopping, so he reluctantly left the place with Elijah, carrying the tridacna.
When they arrived at the electric vehicle that Lincoln had prepared earlier, Beckett Drake, who they had seen earlier, came over with a string of seafood. Seeing Sean, his eyes lit up and he exclaimed with a smile:
"What a coincidence! How was your shopping? Come on, let me treat you to seafood!"
As he said this, he raised the seafood in his hand.
After two encounters and an offer, Sean was too embarrassed to refuse, so he let Lincoln park the car at the entrance of the Dining Hall.
It looked like Beckett often dined here. After entering, he handed the seafood to the waiter:
"Miss Bryant, please ask the kitchen to help cook this. Also, bring up some signature dishes; I’m hosting today."
The waiter smiled, took the seafood, and replied:
"Mr. Fielding, it will be ready right away, just like before, boiled?"
"Yes. The seafood itself is fresh enough, so it’s best without adding anything. Oh, and don’t forget a bowl of ginger and vinegar sauce."
"All right. Please follow me." The waiter took the seafood and led them into a private room and then went to deliver the seafood.
"I often eat here, so I’m familiar with it." Beckett said while pouring water for Sean and the others, "The seafood really is best eaten this way. You’ll see; it’s absolutely delicious!"
There weren’t many people in the restaurant, and once the door was closed, the noise from outside was barely audible.
Beckett was very talkative and said to Sean:
"I’m a travel lover and enjoy traveling all over the place. I’ve been to this island three times, and it’s way better than the southern part of our country.
At least when fishing here, there’s a lot of harvest! Just the price of seafood makes up for the ticket price!"
"What do you do for a living?" Sean asked.
"Photography - I’m a photographer. I often take pictures for those visual websites, and a good photo can make tens of thousands. Usually, it can make a few thousand or even more.
As long as you’re good, a few good photos are enough for me to travel."
Did such good things exist?
Sean laughed and said:
"I’m so envious! You’re living and playing together! Most people can’t achieve this."
"Ha ha." Beckett laughed proudly and then said:
"I’m just playing around; I can’t compare to you."
When he said this, Sean thought his identity had been exposed.
"Look, no one dares to buy those corals, but you bought them all. And hawksbill and tridacna too - brother, you’re truly well-connected!"
Sean understood that this guy had been observing him all along.
"People always have their own ways." Sean smiled and said:
"Since it’s put up for sale, it’s impossible to put it back in the sea. Even if it were, it wouldn’t survive anymore, right? If the domestic market doesn’t allow it, let’s do it abroad. Some things are universal. Right?"
"That’s right! That’s right!" Beckett agreed with a smile.
Sean already felt that something was wrong with Beckett.
