Chapter 590: Growth

The Yangtze River is the longest river in Asia and the third longest river in the world.

It is the longest river in the world entirely within the borders of a country, with a total length of 6,387 kilometers.

There are more than 4,000 species of creatures of all sizes distributed in the Yangtze River Basin, including more than 400 species of fish.

Among them, the Yangtze River White Sturgeon is a representative species in the Yangtze River Basin.

If you want to trace the origin of the Yangtze River paddlefish.

Then we need to go back to the Cretaceous period.

The climate was relatively mild at that time, and sea levels also experienced dramatic changes.

In an environment that is warm and suitable for fish survival, fish belonging to the family Acipensidae reproduce rapidly.

This period can be said to be the fastest breeding period for the Yangtze River paddlefish.

By the time of the Fourth Ice Age, their living environment had undergone drastic changes.

Most of the fish in the family Sturgeon are unable to adapt to their living environment due to sudden changes in climate, leading to extinction.

Only the Yangtze River paddlefish lives in Asia.

The longnose sturgeon that lives in the Mississippi River Basin can quickly adapt to environmental changes and survive by luck.

The appearance of the Yangtze White Sturgeon is different from other fish. It has a long nose. Ancient people mistakenly thought it was a "monster".

It is precisely because of the shallow human understanding at that time and its unique and weird appearance that it gave the Yangtze River paddlefish the best protection for its growth and reproduction.

In addition, the Yangtze River paddlefish can survive by eating some fish and shrimp in the Yangtze River basin.

It can be said to be the top of the food chain in the Yangtze River basin. The absence of natural enemies allows the Yangtze River paddlefish to reproduce rapidly.

Over time, humans realized that the Yangtze River paddlefish is actually just a kind of fish.

And they found that the taste of this fish is very delicious. Driven by profit, people began to take action on this Yangtze River white sturgeon that has been hundreds of millions of years old.

As humans continue to capture them, the living space of the Yangtze River paddlefish has increased.

Overfishing in the 1970s caused a sharp decline in the number of Yangtze paddlefish.

When people realize it, it almost reaches the point of no return.

Fishermen along the Yangtze River also spontaneously rescued injured paddlefish, but to no avail.

The last time I saw a living paddlefish was in 2003 in the Nanxi River section of Yibin.

At that time, after experts rescued a paddlefish, in order to better understand the paddlefish's life trajectory, they installed an ultrasonic tracker on it and released it.

However, due to the rapids and dangerous shoals, the tracking boat accidentally hit the rocks in the middle of the night and lost the paddlefish.

Since then, after many searches and thousands of kilometers of pursuit, the whereabouts of the paddlefish have never been found.

This also became the last farewell between the Yangtze River paddlefish and humans.

Today, when I saw the news that the Yangtze River paddlefish was declared extinct, Ye Yuancong was unwilling to accept it.

He always had a hunch that the paddlefish should not become extinct like this, and he did not want this creature that had been living on the Blue Star for 150 million years to leave the Blue Star.

So he decided that no matter what the outcome was, he must go to the Yangtze River Basin after returning to China.

See if you can use your own perception, a super cheating device, to find the undiscovered Yangtze River paddlefish.

If he finds it, he will take it into the space without hesitation.

Wait until the paddlefish forms a population size in space.

Then send them back to the big Blue Star family.

Because of this report, Ye Yuan was in a very bad mood for the next period of time.

Because the crew members saw the boss's gloomy expression, they did not dare to come over and talk to him.

Even Ma Hua, who usually doesn't look at his boss's face at all, was surprisingly quiet today.

Only the snow fox nestled in Ye Yuan's arms seemed to feel the suppressed emotions of its owner.

It woke up from its dream and from time to time used its tender tongue to lick Ye Yuan's fingers on it.

Ye Yuan felt the tingling sensation coming from his fingers, and then he came out of his sadness and anger.

He looked down at the snow fox who was licking his fingers.

Ye Yuan lovingly touched the down that felt very good.

Ye Yuan said to himself:

"Little guy!"

Because of Xiaoxuehu's behavior, Ye Yuan's mood improved a lot.

Looking at the crew members, they didn’t dare to breathe.

Ye Yuan's heart was touched.

Now I am no longer alone, there are so many people on the boat eating with me.

Your own emotions will affect many people around you.

Therefore, you should learn to control your emotions in the future.

Maybe this is a required course on the road of life growth, right?

When Ye Yuan was in college, he was envious of those old professors who kept their emotions secret.

Today's sudden enlightenment made Ye Yuan know that everyone must go through the precipitation of time and the ravages of time before they become more mature and restrained.

He calmed down, he didn't want to put too much pressure on the crew because of himself.

After all, being at sea is already very boring, and it would be bad if you bring an even more depressing life to the crew.

The best way to deal with the current depressed mood is to fish.

The crew members go to sea to make a living, and as long as it can bring them better profits, that is the best reward for them.

Haven't you seen the smiles on the crew's faces every time they have a good harvest or catch precious seafood?

Sensing deeply into the sea, Ye Yuan didn't think about anything at this moment, he only thought about finding fish suitable for his fishing boat to catch.

Looking at Ye Yuan's serious expression, his eyes were fixed on the sea.

Ma Hua is one of the crew members who knows Ye Yuan best.

When he saw Ye Yuan looking towards the sea with this expression.

He knew what Ye Yuan was going to do next.

So he happily said to Yu Hongbo standing aside:

"Laoban, the boss is looking for fish!"

"We are ready to cast the net at any time if we don't work hard until we know it!"

Yu Hongbo saw Ye Yuan coming out of his gloomy mood.

The corners of his mouth curved slightly, then he turned around and urged the crew to complete the work at hand as quickly as possible.

Because he knew that the fishing boat was about to have a good harvest.

"Lao Yu, prepare crab pots! Let's get some good stuff back!"

Following Ye Yuan's words, the crew on the fishing boat became completely busy.

They knew that the boss would not use the crab pots unless they encountered a swarm of crabs.

Where is this? This is the Bering Sea.

The specialty of the Bering Sea is snow crab.

The snow crabs caught by trawling last time were sold at a very good price in Wesson Town.

Now Ye Yuan is preparing to lay the crab pot.

The crew members could guess without thinking that more snow crabs were found this time than last time.

Otherwise, the boss will not use the crab pots specially prepared for crab fishing.

As the big crab pots were put into the sea one by one, the crew began to look forward to it.

You know, whether in China or any other country, snow crab is a high-end seafood.

It can be said that if some fish are caught and feared that seafood dealers will lower the price, then snow crab does not have this problem at all.

Are you kidding? How dare you lower the price?

You don’t have to worry about selling this thing at all, okay?
