Golden Fishery

I'm so sleepy, brothers and sisters, if you have a vote, vote for it! ****

Qin Shiou quickly bit him and said that it was not only his own little guy, but also the fish, shrimps, crabs and turtles in the fishing ground. Balzac laughed and said, "Don't worry, my boy, we are here to do research, not to be Butcher's."

They even gave up the guarantee, Qin Shiou had nothing to say, so he let Kekao 2 stay on the pier and took them to the town for dinner and accommodation. Of course, they paid for it themselves.

During the meal, Qin Shiou deliberately took them to Papa Xixon's place, and specifically told Papa to kill this group of people severely, hoping to drive them away in this way.

As a result, there is not a single poor person on board the scientific research ship. Even if they don’t use the scientific research funds provided by the state, just doing their own research and contributing articles to famous magazines such as "Nature" and "Ocean" is enough to earn money that can be squandered.

Intellectual culture can be converted into money.

Walking on the streets of the small town in spring after eating, Balzac and Duve showed intoxication on their faces, Dufu murmured: "Look, the spring breeze, the green grass, the red flowers, and the singing of the birds, the scenery of my hometown is beautiful." How fascinating."

Balzac said: "Yes, it is beautiful, and what we have been doing is to preserve this beauty and protect a more beautiful ocean."

Hearing what they said, Qin Shiou felt that it was true that they didn't come here for his fishing ground's idea, and his performance seemed a little weak, so he dismissed the plan of the owner of the United Hotel to slaughter these people.

The people on the scientific research ship have not started working yet. Qin Shiou quickly used his sea god consciousness to send those few guys to the bottom of the deep sea, such as groups of bluefin tunas, and terrifying sea snakes. For example, the astonishingly long Black Overlord...

On the second day, Balzac and others did not go to study the leatherback turtle immediately, but sorted out the information on their ship first.

As promised, Balzac invited Qin Shiou to visit the ship, and he did not refuse when Winnie made a request. He is a very generous and honest old gentleman.

Qin Shiou originally thought that the scientific research No. 2 ship was about 50 meters long, but after he boarded the ship, he realized that he had underestimated the ship. The ship is 70.5 meters long and 13.84 meters wide. With a depth of 8.03 meters, a draft of 7.17 meters and a displacement of 3424 tons, it can provide accommodation for 26 scientific researchers.

Duff is a very personable scholar. He even personally led Qin Shiou and Wei Ni on a tour, and introduced the facilities on the ship eloquently:

"In order to obtain some large items,

Our ship is equipped with cranes at the bow and stern, which can easily grab ten-ton submarine boulders. Remember the Mars dd42 meteorite? That's what it grabbed, look at its big claws, how powerful they are! "

"The dps1 dynamic positioning system is adopted on the ship, and an ice-level enhanced multi-beam sonar system and an acoustic Doppler current profiler are installed, with 75khz and 150khz respectively. It has a longer coring capability. If your ship needs to change its positioning system, then I recommend you to use dps1."

"Our boat is very quiet, and we invite you to experience it next time we sail. This will facilitate fish research. Although this boat is not an icebreaker, it is designed to run at 2.5 knots at 2 knots. Navigating feet of ice, that's pretty cool, isn't it?"

"The ship is equipped with modern winches with 10,000-meter-long cables, including deep-sea traction winches, temperature and salinity depth measurement winches, and hydrological winches. Our colleagues can directly collect samples from the seabed, and remotely control a set of hose winches through computers. to raise and lower research equipment, and to manipulate research instruments to probe the water column and the seafloor."

"The most important thing. Our ship has its own satellite signal receiver, even in the Antarctic and Arctic, it can also transmit information in real time to classrooms around the world..."

Du Fu took the two to visit the facilities on the ship, and then walked into a cabin, which was filled with all kinds of rare marine organisms they had collected, so that they could conduct research on them.

In this way, Qin Shiou's eyes were wide open. He saw many strange creatures that the sea god's consciousness could not see at the bottom of the sea. Grumpy Stingray, and more.

"What kind of fish is this?" Winnie asked, pointing to a small light cyan fish with a long oval body and a rounded outline on the back of the head.

Du Fu smiled and was about to introduce, Qin Shiou shrugged and said: "California Tsingyi, a very strange fish, it is said that they are all females when they are born, and only part of them turn into males when they grow up."

After listening to Qin Shiou's words, Du Fu nodded and said, "Yes, you are right. Their habits are very strange. They are one of our research objects. We want to know whether their sex change is related to hormone secretion."

"What's the use?" Winnie asked.

Now Qin Shiou was out of words, Du Fu smiled and said: "It is very useful, as you know, many animals and fish are in a state of unbalanced male and female ratio, and some animals and fish even have only one or two females left." or males, may become extinct at any time."

"If the reason for the metamorphosis of Tsing Yi in California is studied, maybe it can be used on animals and fish that are at the border of extinction, right?" Qin Shiou added.

Du Fu snapped his fingers and laughed, "That's right!"

Qin Shiou continued to walk forward, and there were shellfish behind the bony fish. He narrowed his eyes suddenly, pointed to the dozens of large and small abalones in the fish tank in front of him and asked, "Oh my god, don't tell me, this is BC Spotted Abalone?!"

These abalones are surrounded by a thick calcareous half-shell, which is a right-handed spiral shell like a big ear. While most abalone shells are dark greenish brown in color, these abalone shells have exquisite piebald appearance, which looks very beautiful, just like the legendary BC piebald abalone.

After Qin Shiou finished asking, Du Fu smiled and said: "You have a lot of knowledge, my buddy, yes, this is BC spotted abalone, which is rare now, we only found 55 of them in Alaska, and then If you look for it, it’s gone.”

British Columbia spotted abalone, the world's top abalone, is known as the best freshness in the seven seas. It is not only delicious but also extremely nutritious.

This kind of abalone has very strict requirements on the living environment. It needs to grow in absolutely clean cold sea water, and its growth rate is very slow. It takes ten years to grow from abalone fry to the size of a child's palm!

B.C. spotted abalone used to be a national treasure in Canada. Unfortunately, due to environmental pollution and people’s crazy overfishing, they have almost disappeared. The Ministry of Fisheries and Oceans issued a ban as early as ten years ago. And catch this abalone.

Qin Shiou's fishery is now very rich in species. There are all kinds of fish, shrimps, crabs, clams, sea turtles and sea cucumbers, but there is a shortage of sea cucumbers, and what he has always wanted to breed is British Columbia spotted abalone, because he believes that under the protection of Poseidon's energy, this species Abalone will definitely become resource-rich again.

Unfortunately, he has been searching for more than a year but has not found the shadow of BC spotted abalone. Now, the opportunity has finally come! (to be continued)
