In the blink of an eye, the middle of October is coming, the weather is getting cooler day by day, and autumn is getting stronger.

During this time, Jiang Yichen has been staying on Yunsha Island, monitoring and preventing poaching boats, and also helping Lai Shun'er and them do some farm work.

On this day, the No. 068 white fishing boat reappeared on the western sea, and the Jiao boss was obviously still not dead.

Just as Jiang Yichen was waiting for the battle, ready to go into the water to repeat his old skills. However, I saw that the white fishing boat stopped when it drove to the edge of the natural small fishing ground, as if observing the situation.

The natural fishing grounds in the west are centered on small wharves and extend in three directions, south, north and west, and the current effective area has reached nearly three square kilometers.

The density of fish is also proportional, becoming denser towards the center and thinner in marginal waters.

The fishing boat did not dare to go any further, and it still looked very fearful. After a while, all the guys on the boat, under the command of Boss Jiao, went to the net, which greatly surprised Jiang Yichen's expectations.

Due to the distance, he could not reach it by diving in a short time, so he gave up his action for the time being and watched from the pier with a telescope in hand.

I saw that the white fishing boat was cruising around the periphery, and did not stop at the same place for too long. After a few nets in a row, he called it a day and hurriedly drove away. Although it is said to abandon fat and pick up thinness, there are some gains from the situation, but it is certainly not rich.

Damn, he actually played guerrilla warfare under his nose, he really had a thief's heart and a ghost. Jiang Yichen secretly scolded in his heart.

For this trick, he really couldn't think of any effective countermeasures for a while. In the end, I had to go back.

In fact, fishing operations in marginal waters have a slight loss, but it just makes people feel uncomfortable.

But then again, the fishery resources in China's coastal waters are really enough to see, and many fishermen who have made a living from it for generations are about to go crazy.

Jiang Yichen shook his head, turned around and walked towards the shore.

Not far to the south of the small wharf was the tidal flat breeding pond, and after a little thought, he decided to stop by to see the situation.

At the beginning, when he first landed on the island with Lai Shun'er and Kiko. It was here that the pond was built. Mudflats and seawater are used for the cultivation of a variety of aquatic products. It's been two and a half years since I think about it.

The early pools were rudimentary, consisting of two enclosed simple mud ponds, with two high and low gates nailed from broken wooden boards on the side facing the sea to control the water level.

Later, it was trimmed several times. and took the opportunity of the construction of a small wharf. It was replaced with stone embankment and ridge building. The joints were made with cement and a protective net was erected over the edge of the pool. Now the overall is much stronger and more durable, and you don't have to worry about the impact of the tide.

At the same time, the pool was expanded. The total area has reached more than 150 square meters. The gate was also remade by a stone carpenter, and now it looks much more elaborate.

The breeding pond is different from the natural small fishing ground on the small wharf, and it is a high-standard treatment. It is also nourished by a mixture of white and green ice throughout the year, so that the aquarium residents grow much faster than their counterparts in nature.

After optimization, the current aquatic products retain five varieties of abalone, stick clams, grouper, sea cucumber and prawns, although there are not many patterns, but the quality is outstanding and stable.

A few minutes later, Jiang Yichen came to the front and stepped onto the edge of the pool.

The pool was quiet, and for a moment it gave the illusion that there was nothing.

Thanks to the introduction of purple ice, the water is changed much less frequently, but it still remains crystal clear. The water quality is good, but it takes a bit of a look to find the aquarium dwellers who live there.

In order to create a good habitat, kelp and wakame are transplanted in the pond, and the reflection of the water surface and the protective color of the creatures themselves have formed a disturbance to people's eyes.

Jiang Yichen bent down and picked up a thin branch by the pool, and pulled it into the water in front of him.

Crackle, crackle, crackle. In an instant, the pool that was still calm just now suddenly became noisy, and I saw a series of cyan transparent bow-shaped objects rushing out of the water, soaring more than two feet, all of them full of elasticity, flashing in the sun.

The water splashed everywhere, and he quickly took a sideways step to avoid it.

Prawns, yes, the most active guy in these ponds was obviously on his lunch break just now, and he was disturbed and made a fuss.

Jiang Yichen watched the group dance performance of the prawns with great interest. After raising them for such a long time, these guys are getting stronger and stronger, almost every head is more than thirty centimeters long, the armor is shiny, strong and strong, and it is estimated that the weight of a single body can exceed one catty. This has to be taken to the seafood market in the city, which is definitely a super-grade prawn, and it is the best product.

"Brother Chenzi, I'm so interested today, let's have fun with the shrimp here."

At this moment, a familiar voice came from the left.

Jiang Yichen turned his head and saw that it was Xizi, wearing an old gray overalls, carrying an iron bucket in his hand, and a straw hat on his head to shade the sun.

Since the date of construction, the tidal flat breeding pond has been mainly maintained and managed by Xizi, and now she is also a senior professional and technical person.

"It's okay, I'll come over and take a look. You're busy with yours. Jiang Yichen replied casually, and turned his gaze back to the pool noodles.

Most of the aquatic products in the tidal flat breeding pond are prepared for seafood restaurants, high-end goods. Usually, not only are they reluctant to eat, but even Dingxiangyuan, due to the market positioning of mid-range consumption, is not very suitable for operating this kind of food.

Except for shrimp and bamboo clams, which have been changed several times because of their relatively short growth cycles, so that insiders and some high-end diners of Dingxiangyuan can enjoy their mouths, other aquatic products with long growth cycles, such as sea cucumber, abalone, and grouper, have basically not moved at all.

Jiang Yichen stepped on the edge of the pond and walked slowly, next to the shrimp pond is the stinging cucumber pond, these yellow-brown, cylindrical bodies, and the back is covered with conical meat spines, not as happy as their neighbors, all lying on the bottom of the pool, lazily motionless, looking at the situation in addition to eating or sleeping, this is their daily life.

The superior environment and high-quality bait, coupled with careful maintenance, make the body of the cucumbers grow fat and round, thick and long, according to visual observation, most of them should be in the length of more than 40 centimeters.

Further on, there is the grouper pond.

Grouper is one of the most valuable fish in seafood, with delicate meat, low fat, high protein, high nutritional value and luscious taste, which is widely sought after by high-end diners.

In addition, this fish has a large mouth and sharp teeth, a fierce temperament, likes to eat all kinds of crustaceans and small fish and shrimp, and even kills each other when hungry, so it can only be fed alone.

Grouper arrived a little later than the previous two aquatic products, about a little more than a year. But it's already quite impressive.

The varieties in the pond are red spotted grouper, salmon spotted grouper, moire grouper and eastern star grouper. The body of the fish is oval, flattened on the side, the head is large, the snout is short, wide and obtuse, and the whole body is covered with various stripes and spots, and the color is bright and very eye-catching.

Groupers have a long lifespan, and if they are measured by wild fish in nature, they are obviously still juvenile for more than a year, but the body length of these guys in the pond is about 30 centimeters, and they are completely adults.

Jiang Yichen squatted down and probed the thin branch in his hand towards an orange-red spotted fish that was swimming, but saw that it was originally slow but suddenly became agile, its body swung to the side, opened its big mouth full of fangs, and bit the branch violently. I heard a crunch click, and the branch broke.

Judging from the strength of the feedback on the branches, this guy's strength is not small.

"Brother Chenzi, be careful, this fish has good teeth, but it is fierce, and you dare to bite anything."

Kiko was cleaning up the garbage in the pool with a bamboo pole net on the side, and hurriedly reminded when she saw this.

Jiang Yichen snorted, but he didn't care in his heart. I've played freehand magic tricks, and my reflexes and hand speed are far beyond ordinary people, and if I can be bitten by a fish, it will be a joke.

"Xizi, this grouper is not small, do you know how much it weighs?" Suddenly, he asked again.

"The flesh of this fish is so dense that I estimate that it must be at least three kilograms higher." Kiko opened her mouth and replied. After serving for so long, he was all too familiar with these water tribes.

"Well, it's a good raiser." Jiang Yichen praised from the bottom of his heart.

"Hehe, that's, it's still worse under my hands." Xizi responded happily, but she was not polite.

Jiang Yichen continued to walk forward, saw the densely distributed bamboo clams, and finally came to the abalone breeding pond.

Abalone, as a famous treasure in the sea, has almost reached the well-known Cheng dù in our country, and it is indispensable for all high-grade seafood banquets.

Since the tidal flat aquaculture industry on Yunsha Island is positioned at the high-end, the selection of species has naturally been carefully compared and considered.

There are only two types of abalone in the pond, net abalone and Jipin abalone, both of which are the best species in the group.

In order to meet the living habits of abalones who like to climb and crawl, in addition to transplanting algae, various large and small stones are specially piled up at the bottom of this part of the pond.

Jiang Yichen's gaze looked through the surface of the water and saw the crusty creatures attached to the walls and stones of the pool, the shell shape was right-handed, and the spiral protrusions were distributed, and the surface was dark greenish-brown.

From the side, you can also see the wide and flat fleshy feet, and it is this organ that the abalone relies on to hold up the heavy shell and move forward slowly.

The growth of abalone is particularly slow, and after more than a year of raising, the shell length only reaches about ten centimeters, which is still the effect of the space ice water. If it is replaced by the natural environment, it is estimated that it will not reach four centimeters at this time.

In addition, the grade of abalone is mainly distinguished by the "number of heads" occupied by the weight of each Sima Jin (604 grams), and the smaller the quantity, the higher the grade. Among them, the two-headed abalone is respected, of course, the one-headed abalone only exists in the legend and story.

As for these things in the current pool, it is estimated that they can be counted as four or five abalones, which is already quite good. And after a while, there is no doubt that a higher grade will be reached.

Jiang Yichen straightened his waist and looked around the pool with satisfaction, with the smooth growth of aquaculture aquatic products, the supply chain of high-end and mid-grade raw materials has gradually improved, and now the preparations for the seafood restaurant are ready, only the east wind is owed.
