Golden Fishing Village

After the arrival of manatees, Longtou Village gained a star.

In fact, manatees are not good-looking. Their two small eyes are sunken in their round heads and are almost invisible. They have no earlobes, and their big noses are connected to their upper lips and then bulge. The two nostrils are located at the top, like a pig with a snub nose.

The slightly better thing is that their nostrils can be closed, so that when they dive from the water after breathing, the process of closing their nostrils can arouse people's interest.

In addition, their lower lips are inward, and there are sparse beards around their mouths. There is an arm-like forelimb on each side of the front body, and there are nails on the outer side of the top. The hind limbs are degenerated, and the fat body gradually shrinks backwards, with a flat tail like a fish tail at the end.

And these manatees are still very thin. If they were fatter, they would be more cute. After all, fat people are cute.

But anyway, villagers and tourists usually can't see manatees. When manatees came to the sea area outside Longtou Village, everyone was very interested and came to open their eyes.

Manatees are very suitable for tourism. They move slowly, have a mild temper and are almost docile. They like to swim close to the sea surface, so that people can see them clearly.

Ao Muyang arranged the village boat to protect the manatees. He did not allow tourists or villagers to touch these timid guys. He was not afraid of scaring them, but afraid of tossing them to death.

But he also gave tourists the opportunity to contact manatees, that is, to buy water grass and seaweed to feed the manatees. Whenever the manatees surfaced to breathe, tourists could feed them the water grass and seaweed they bought.

These water grasses came from Ambergris Lake, and the seaweed came from his fishing ground. The giant kelp forest in the fishing ground was a bit large. Originally, they had no economic value. After Lao Ao thought of the business of selling seaweed to feed manatees, they had economic value.

It cannot be said that he is a profiteer. This is a win-win business.

The manatees have a big appetite. If they are allowed to find food freely, it will cause great damage to the seaweed on the seashore.

They had suffered in the aquarium before, and had no food to eat. They were so hungry that they only weighed a few hundred kilograms. Now they finally encountered natural seaweed, so they couldn't eat it to their heart's content?

After tourists came to feed them, the survival pressure of the seaweed was reduced.

In addition, with the face of the manatee, Longtou Village once again appeared in the media of Hongyang and other places. Even the provincial TV station reported on this matter on the news channel, life channel and tourism channel.

Due to the season, the number of tourists coming to the village has dropped a lot compared with spring and summer. As a result, because of the arrival of the manatee, the village ushered in a small peak of tourism in late autumn.

The residents of Hongyang City have seen manatees. After all, the provincial aquarium is also open to the public. But at that time, you had to see the manatee through the glass, unlike now that you can have close contact with it on the sea, and you can also feed the manatee?

So, on weekends, some residents brought their children to Longtou Village again.

The staff of the provincial aquarium were very dissatisfied with this. At that time, they also developed the business of buying seaweed to feed manatees, but no one bought it at all and was unwilling to spend this money.

This is the effect of habit. Many tourists have the experience of buying fish and meat to feed sperm whales, tiger sharks and dolphins, and they can also accept buying seaweed to feed manatees.

In addition, feeding manatees in the aquarium is to throw seaweed into the glass cover, which is not interactive at all. Here, tourists put seaweed in the water, and manatees will swim over to prey on them. If you are lucky, you can touch their heads.

Manatees are not afraid of being touched. Their skin is so thick that it cannot be pierced with a knife.

As for why Ao Muyang issued a ban not allowing tourists to touch manatees without feeding, it is very simple. He must give tourists who have paid a fee a better experience, right?

After the manatees arrived, the tigers and sperm whales were not very happy. They found that their food had become less during this period, and fewer people came to feed them.

The dolphins are much smarter. After realizing this, they began to perform purposefully, such as jumping out of the water close to the tourists' boats, or coming up to get close to the tourists. In short, they are much more active than before.

Ao Muyang couldn't help laughing after noticing this. It turns out that competition creates beauty.

Not only did tourists come to the village, but Sun Beilong also came to the village again.

This time he came with a lot of gifts. As soon as he met Ao Muyang, he smiled and said, "Congratulations, Brother Ao, you are a celebrity now. Recently, the news in Hongyang is all about you and your village."

Ao Muyang didn't give him a good look. He snorted and said, "Boss Beilong, you dare to come to my territory. Do you think I won't do anything?"

Sun Beilong looked helpless: "Brother Ao, it was really a misunderstanding last time. I came here specially to apologize this time! Look, I brought everyone with me!"

He waved his hand, and six or seven young men came forward timidly.

Ao Muyang had some impression of these people. Last time, they were the ones who ran in front of the team that was chasing him at the dock.

When the young men saw him, they all knelt down. One of them said with a sad face, "Mr. Ao, we didn't recognize you. We offended you last time. Please forgive us. We really didn't know that you were the distinguished guest invited by Beilong!"

Ao Muyang raised his hand, and Heilong went up and grabbed them and stood up.

The other party knelt down. Although they were a group of spineless bastards, their kneeling was worthless, but Lao Ao was a man of honor. He didn't want to accept so many kneelings at such a young age.

After taking a deep breath, Ao Muyang looked a little better. He said, "Forget it, let the past be the past. Boss Beilong, please let these brothers go out first. I am not used to this."

Sun Beilong's face was delighted, and then he scolded several young men, "Get out of here, you are embarrassing things!"

After the young men left, Fu Jixiang said, "This matter is my fault, Village Chief Ao. I should have passed on the news that Boss Beilong and you have become friends, but I was too slow to pass on the news..."

"There is no need to say this. The misunderstanding of going is resolved. "Ao Muyang waved his hand and made a generous gesture, "But Mr. Beilong, the weather is too cold now, I can't stay in the water for too long, help you find clues to the destruction of your fishery."

Sun Beilong smiled and said, "Let's talk about this matter when the weather warms up. The weather is cold recently and the water is cold. The person who destroyed my fishery has not shown up again. Everything is fine in the fishery."

Ao Muyang also smiled: "That's great."

He was really not used to staying with Sun Beilong, so he sent the group away on the pretext that he had to lead a team to go fishing in the afternoon.

Of course, he had to act in full, so he simply took the Dragon Head to the sea again.

Autumn is the season for many fish to migrate. At this time, marine resources such as saury, hairtail, mackerel, squid and octopus are extremely abundant. Ao Muyang took these things as the target of this sea voyage.
