Marine aquaculture refers to the use of shallow seas, tidal flats, harbors, ponds and other sea areas to raise and breed seafood economic animals and plants, is an important way for human beings to use marine resources and develop marine aquatic industry.

Wang Hai has always been resolute in doing things, since he promised the county magistrate Zhang, after sobering up, he endured the headache and discomfort after being drunk, and made a phone call to Professor Sun, a marine biologist, to explain the situation.

The old man Sun, who was over sixty years old, was not ambiguous, and the next day he appeared in front of Wang Hai in a car, pulled Wang Hai and went straight to Licheng to check the beach and shallow sea environment there.

Although Li Cheng has a civilized coast and sandy beaches, it is only a small part of the beaches in the area, and most of the beaches are not suitable for development into tourist attractions.

After receiving Wang Hai's phone call, County Magistrate Zhang personally received them at the county border, and then led them to the beach belonging to a township in the jurisdiction.

"The area of this beach suitable for the development of marine aquaculture is about 60,000 acres, including land and sea area. Due to lack of funds and environmental problems, it was not developed into a scenic spot, and slowly became desolate. ”

Speaking of this, County Magistrate Zhang was a little distracted. Such a large area of tidal flats and sea areas has not been reasonably developed, so that more people can benefit, because they are officials who are incapable!

"Well, this place looks good at first glance, the water is very clear and the water quality is very good. The tidal flats contain a little more sand, but it's not a big problem. ”

As an expert in this field, Professor Sun looked around and felt the situation here. Soon gave his own opinion, this place should be no problem as a marine aquaculture base.

Professor Sun's words made the county magistrate Zhang, who was originally in a somewhat depressed mood, immediately light up, which shows that the last obstacle to the cooperation between the two sides is gone.

Subconsciously, County Magistrate Zhang turned his head to look at Wang Hai. The first time he saw the vast and boundless sea, Wang Hai was already intoxicated, and he didn't notice the people and things around him at all.

Although Port City is a seaside city. However, only part of the city and the two counties are close to the east, and part of the two counties is by the sea, and Longcheng County is completely semi-mountainous, and the nearest seaside is still fifty or sixty kilometers away.

In the past, the living conditions at home were not good, and Wang Hai had never been far away for almost half of his life, and most of them were wandering around at the door of his home. Later, although I had money, I was busy all day long, and even if I went to the city, I didn't have any spare time to look at the sea.

The last time I went to the shipyard, I saw the sea. But that's to order fishing boats. Without distractions, I didn't care to appreciate the vastness and magnificence of the sea.

This time, when I came over, I got out of the car and looked at the deserted beach and the boundless sea in the distance, Wang Hai was shocked all of a sudden.

Especially watching the waves rush over, lapping against the various strange-shaped reefs on the shore, splashing countless white waves, and making bursts of roar. The people who watched were full of excitement and pride.

Well? Wang Hai's eyes were very good, and he noticed that there seemed to be a lot of something very special on the shore or on the reef deep in the sea.

Come to think of it. He walked to a bare reef on the beach amid the astonished gaze of everyone, and reached out to clasp it up.

County Magistrate Zhang, who came back to his senses, watched Wang Hai compete with the oysters attached to the reef like a child who was curious about everything, and couldn't help but smile on his lips.

Professor Sun is not as reserved as he is. Seeing Wang Hai's movements, he immediately burst out laughing. Then he took a big step and walked over, standing behind Wang Hai to cheer him on.

"Hard. Hard, fast, fast, come down! You're doing it! ”

Wang Hai only clasped something very similar to the color of the reef with both hands, and was struggling to break it down. It took a lot of effort, but I finally broke one down.

Holding it in his hand, Wang Hai looked at it carefully and curiously, except that he looked very strange, he didn't see any doorway, and turned around and asked Professor Sun:

"Old man Sun, what is this? It grows on a stone, and at first glance, it looks exactly like a stone! ”

Without waiting for Old Man Sun to speak, County Magistrate Zhang, who was following next to him, gave him a detailed explanation.

"This is oysters, we don't have many here, I've been to Dalian across the sea, and the oysters there are only more than one! It's a great thing, it tastes so good, and when you cook it in water, it's delicious, and you don't need to put any spices at all. ”

"Yes, this is the sea oyster, also known as the stone oyster, which is a common shellfish in the ocean, and we have it in many seas in China. The scientific name is oyster, and the southerners call it oyster. The meat is fatty, smooth, and nutritious, and is a popular ingredient all over the world. Our ancestors started eating it thousands of years ago, and it may have pearls in it. ”

Professor Sun's explanation made everyone nod their heads. If you're a marine biologist, you know a lot.

"Oh? This is the oysters, huh? Looks like I've eaten it once, but it's not very tasty, right? ”

Wang Hai touched his head and said what he said, which surprised the others. This oyster is delicious and very popular, why does he say that it tastes bad?

"It's not strange, it's hard to reconcile, some people like it, some people don't like it, it's normal." Professor Sun waved his hand, dispelling everyone's curiosity.

Think about it, everything is like this, some people like it, then some people don't like it. It's like stinky tofu, people who like it can't wait to eat it every day, and those who don't like it must hide away when they see it, and they can't stand the smell when they smell it.

"Hey, look, there's such a small shell!"

Everyone looked down at the sound and saw that Wang Hai was squatting on the beach, holding a small white thing similar to a shell with a very small head in his hand, which was just over a centimeter in size, and looked at it curiously.

"Hehe, this is a sea melon seed, don't look down on it, after the fire is cooked, the taste is so delicious that you can't forget it after eating it once!"

Professor Sun just glanced at it and recognized what was in Wang Hai's hand, this kind of small clam, he had eaten it many times, and he also knew a lot about various methods.

Because when it is first caught, it has a lot of sediment in its stomach, so it must be raised in light salt water for a period of time, and then it can only be eaten when it spits out the sediment.

The method is also very simple, generally stir-fry with a fierce heat, put a little green onion, ginger and garlic, add a little salt and soy sauce to taste, and fry until the shell of the sea melon seeds pops open and can be served out.

Of course, there is an easier way to put some salt directly in the water, boil it in water until the shell opens, and you can eat it, which is very delicious and delicious.

County Magistrate Zhang accompanied Wang Hai to blow the sea breeze on the beach for a long time, and looked at Wang Hai like a child, looking around for all kinds of seafood.

What small crabs, small fish, small shrimp, all kinds of shellfish, play that is called a lot of fun. I can't tell at all that he is the owner of a large company with assets of tens of millions.

"Okay, let's see it here today, no problem, just go back and sign the contract."

Professor Sun, who had sneaked around with a few of his own students, came back and saw Wang Hai still squatting on the beach, digging and scratching around, which was very funny. Hurry up and speak, it's not too early, it's time to get down to business.

"Huh? Done? After speaking, Wang Hai glanced at his harvest with some reluctance.

A dozen fist-sized oysters, five or six pike crabs that can weigh three or four or two, and three or four small pike fish and the most common Lemba fish, a bunch of shells of all kinds and sizes. What clams, conch, razor clams......

"Okay, you said that you are such a big boss, why are you still addicted to playing? Besides, in the future, this large area will be yours, isn't it when you want to come? ”

Professor Sun looked at Wang Hai with amusement, it is really rare for such a big boss to have such a pure heart! But if you think about it carefully, it is his character that makes his old friends look up to him.

In the car on the way back, Professor Sun carefully told Wang Hai about the current development of seafood aquaculture in China, as well as the species suitable for aquaculture in this sea area that Wang Hai is about to contract.

"In this place, you can raise some shellfish on the beach, and you can raise some shrimp, crabs, and some marine fish in the offshore. By the way, you can also grow some kelp, and seaweed and the like are also good. ”

"I'm relieved that you're here. Just take it, I'll give you 30% of the shares, and you can come and help me manage this place, do you think it's okay? ”

Professor Sun was stunned by Wang Hai's proposal, but then shook his head and refused.

"How old I am, I'll forget it. I think so, Xiao Guo who came with me this time is good, he has learned very solidly, and I will help you ask when I go back. ”

"Cheng, then I thank you in advance! As for his treatment, I will buy a house and a car, and if I do well, I will give him a certain share. For the time being, the salary is 5,000 a month, and if he is sure that he can come, he can negotiate again. ”

"Hehe, everyone says that you are a local tyrant, it seems that it is really true! On your terms, I'm a little moved! Professor Sun happily pointed at Wang Hai and joked.

"If you want to come, it's not this treatment, at least you have to pay a monthly salary of 10,000 yuan, with a car and a house, and then a few assistants, secretaries or something, you just need to sit in the office, read the documents, make phone calls and move your mouth."

Wang Hai played with Old Man Sun affectionately, he really hoped that Old Man Sun would agree to him. It's a pity that the old man didn't let go at all, so he could only let him stop.

At noon, the county magistrate Zhang held a banquet in the county guest house to invite Wang Hai and Professor Sun and his party, and soon after the meal, Wang Hai signed a contract with him, and this place will belong to the old Wang family for the next 50 years. (To be continued......)
