"What's there to see up there? There will be no animals, there will be no wild vegetables, except for a few trees, it will be silt, and I will build yì or not go up. The sea monster said disappreciatively.

Shaq thought so, and said with a smile: "When I was a child, these islands were still bigger, and we often came up to play and use them as expeditions, and called these islands in the lake 'pirate lairs', but every time we got nothing but mud. ”

"Maybe you can still find the treasure that was buried back then." Qin Shiou said, he propped up the fishing ground to the shore, tried that the ground had dried up, and jumped off the boat to the island.

Shaq and the sea monster looked at each other, and they were a little moved, yes, what if they could find the 'treasure' buried on it in their childhood?

Most of the trees that survive on this island are metasequoias, ponds, and willows, which are rooted in the soil, and their trunks are tilted, straight, or graceful, and they are very abstract.

To Qin Shiou's surprise, these trees have survived in the water for a long time, and many places have changed, such as their roots have turned bright water red!

Shaq and the sea monster are not correct when they say that there is nothing here, at least there are many small fish, shrimp and freshwater crabs hiding on the coast, and the long-standing fallen leaves and rotting roots provide these small aquatic creatures with rich nutrients and attract them to come to inhabit.

In addition, the island has become a resting place for birds, who fish in the lake and stay here when they are tired, and there are more than 100 trees on the shore, almost every tree has more than one nest.

In this way, the birds defecate around the island, and the guano is also a nutritious food for the fish, so that there are more fish around the island.

Qin Shiou lifted some rotten leaves on the shore and found a few pike, inland herrings and small lying fish fleeing in a panic.

It's strange to say, these fish are all former owners of Shenbao Lake, and now they are forced by Asian carp to run to the shore to find living space.

"Alas, there are a lot fewer aquatic plants in the lake, and the Asian carp is too edible, and if you eat it like this, sooner or later there will be no grass in the lake, and there will be no fish at that time." Shaq said in frustration after watching the shore for a while.

Qin Shiou shrugged his shoulders and said, "Otherwise, let's hold a donation activity in the town, buy aquatic weed seeds, and plant them in Shenbao Lake, just like I planted seaweed in the fishing grounds." ”

Last time, he bought a lot of grass seeds, seaweed seeds, etc., but they were all for the ocean, and they couldn't grow in freshwater water.

In North America, greening and environmental protection has always been a very hot topic, and it is quite expensive to engage in this piece, Shenbao Lake has an area of **10 square kilometers, if it is a large area of aquatic plants, at least 50,000 yuan of seeds are enough.

The economic situation of the people in Farewell Town is not good, and even if 50,000 yuan is part of it, it is a lot of pressure, this idea is destined to not work, because Canadians will go to the government when they have something, especially this Shenbao Lake is still a public place.

Walking around the island, it is estimated that no one has ever been here, and the birds that roost on it have built their nests very casually, Qin Shiou walked to a willow tree with a crooked neck, and there was a bird's nest that was only a little higher than the top of his head.

As soon as Qin Shiou approached, a big bird flew up in the nest, with gray and black feathers, which was a common North American river in Canada.

The big bird ran away, and there were still four eggs in the nest that were smaller than eggs, Qin Shiou took them in his hand and looked at them, and found that the eggs were still warm.

Seeing that his child was moved, the North American River Wu circled and screamed vigorously over the island, probably scolding Qin Shiou for not being a thing.

Qin Shiou really wanted to make a bird's egg fried leeks to eat, it was delicious and strong, but this was just an idea, he looked at it and put the bird's eggs back.

This trip to the island is not without harvest, because of the humidity, especially at night, there will be fog on Shenbao Lake, so there are a lot of fungi on the dead branches of the trees on the island, Qin Shiou recognized a kind of umbrella cover is gray, umbrella handle brown and yellow fungus, which is very famous in his hometown, called mountain mushroom.

For this kind of fungus, Qin Shiou is very emotional, when he was a child, his family conditions were not very good, and he usually had no meat to eat. Usually after the rain, his mother would look among the old wood in the yard, and she could find this mountain shiitake mushroom, which was particularly fragrant and better than fatty meat after being fried in oil.

There are other mushrooms in the woods, so Qin Shiou doesn't know them, Shaq and the sea monster know each other, and keep introducing him: "This is a Brazilian mushroom, you can eat it, this is a Newfoundland straw mushroom, it tastes good; Oh, and I've found Ontario red mushrooms here before, and they taste even better......"

Qin Shiou took off his clothes and carefully picked some mushrooms and mushrooms that he was sure to eat, especially mountain mushrooms, and found more, adding up to three or four catties.

"We can't eat that much, can we?" Shaq asks what Canadians pick in the wild, whether it's fungi or berries, in moderation because that's what they've been taught since childhood.

Qin Shiou said: "Stir-fry it freshly and eat it, and then I will dry the rest after oil, and the taste will be even better." ”

Fungi don't care about protection, as long as they leave mycelium, they are equivalent to leaving seeds, and with the right humidity, temperature and light, they will grow again. These things rot quickly, and if Qin Shiou doesn't pick them, it won't take a few days before they will rot.

Shaq and the sea monster admired Qin Shiou's cooking skills very much, and heard that this thing could be made into delicious food, the two of them were more energetic than Qin Shiou's, and they divided into two ways to outflank the island and picked all the mountain mushrooms they could find.

After shooting fish for a while, the three of them shot more than forty Asian carp, and they were a little tired and ready to go back, but they ran into Tang Ji and Hamley, who were carrying various diving tools and testing equipment on board, Qin Shiou said hello and asked, "What are you going to do?" ”

Tang Ji beckoned warmly and explained, "Let's go and have a look in the water to see if we can find some more fossils, by the way, Qin, last time you found the fossilized teeth of the Golden Kitchen Shark there?" ”

Qin Shiou scratched his head and said with a wry smile: "You can test me, man, I was busy shooting fish at the time and didn't notice this." ”

Hamlet and Don Quiz sighed regretfully, so they had to look for a needle in a haystack.

Yes, looking for a needle in a haystack, relative to the **ten square kilometers of Shenbao Lake, their way to find fossils is to find a needle in a haystack.

Qin Shiou asked, "Is it important to find those fossils?" ”

If it really mattered, he looked for an opportunity to use the Poseidon Consciousness to search the bottom of the lake.

Hamlet nodded and said: "Yes, if we can find those fossils, the government can give us a reward, if we find more fossils, we can even set up an exhibition hall in the town, and then we can make money and improve some of the town's infrastructure, such as buying some grass seeds to plant in Shenbao Lake." ”

Hearing Hamlet say this, Qin Shiou admired him a little, this mayor is very competent, and he has been racking his brains for the development of the town, when he was in Huaxia, he didn't see any mayor who would personally go to the lake to dive and search for fossils that may exist in order to help the town improve people's livelihood.

Qin Shiou tried to think about it, he put the Seagod Consciousness into the lake, probably remembering the place where he found the Golden Kitchen Shark's teeth last time, and showed the two of them the way, before leaving.

It was already time for lunch, Shaq and the sea monster baked bread and waited for Qin Shiou to make fried mountain shiitake mushrooms.

This dish is very simple, it is delicious to eat mountain shiitake mushrooms, after boiling the oil, put the torn mountain shiitake mushrooms in the oil pan, and finally add coarse salt and a little soy sauce.

This dish is made with coarse salt instead of fine salt, and the coarse salt does not disperse, so when you bite into it, the deliciousness of the mountain shiitake mushrooms and the saltiness of the salt grains after chewing them blend together, and it is simply beautiful.

Shaq and the sea monster were eaten with bread, and Qin Shiou cooked pasta and mixed noodles with fried oil, which was particularly fragrant.

"It's a pity that there is no lard, otherwise it will be fried with lard, and it will be called delicious." Qin Shiou sighed while sucking the noodles.

Shaq hummed and bit the bread, and said vaguely: "Let's start work in the afternoon, bring a branch from the river, and then replace the chickens, ducks and pigs, so that they can grow faster, so that we can eat them as soon as possible?" ”

After eating and drinking, Shaq went to the town to find a small excavator, roared into the fishing grounds, found an open area in the woods, and began to dig branches.

They found a straight line and designed to dig a tributary about one meter wide and half a meter deep, which was tantamount to diverting the mountain river.

Auerbach happened to come to play, and Qin Shiou said to him proudly: "How about it, old man, can the work we do be a feat?" ”

Looking at him strangely, Auerbach asked, "Do you want the river to pass from the enclosure?" In that case, why not just build the enclosure upstream of the estuary? Isn't it enough to straddle the banks of the creek? ”

Qin Shiou blinked when he heard his words, and the sea monster next to him also blinked, and Shaq saw that they were quiet, so he jumped off the excavator and asked what was going on.

Knowing about Auerbach's construction, Shaq also blinked, and no one spoke.

Qin Shiou only knew at this time that after being with a fool for a long time, people's IQ would decline......

"What now?" Shaq asked, looking at the fence that had been put up.

Qin Shiou looked at the tributary channel that had been dug halfway, and waved his hand weakly: "Forget it, man, continue to excavate, but dig shallowly, a depth of twenty centimeters is enough, let's not change the river channel, open a tributary." ”

Shaq continued to work, and after getting on the excavator, he had just started the fire, and suddenly he screamed, "Hey, little bear, I saw a little brown bear!" ”

Qin Shiou hurriedly ran over, and the sea monster shouted: "Come back, boss, we have to prepare a gun!" We need guns! ”

Shaq stood in the car and pointed to the northeast, Qin Shiou looked at it, and saw that behind a thick spruce, a small dog and bear with gray and brown hair was lying on a tree, looking at them with his head exposed.
