Chapter 404: Tridacnus Breeding
It's the rainy season in Fiji, it's hot and humid, and the mosquitoes on the island are plentiful and ferocious.
After resting for a while, Yan Xiaoxi's slender thighs were bitten by mosquitoes for a few bags.
"I'm back."
Chen Yuan started the dinghy, circled around the dense sea area of the island, and returned to the yacht.
Chen's father and Yan Fuli were playing on a jet ski, and their clothes were soaked.
Two brothers, Xu Xing and Xu Ming, are diving.
Chen Yuan drove the annex boat to the side of the yacht, and Chen's father and they also came over on a motorboat.
Yan Xiaoxi jumped onto the water platform: "I'm in." ”
"Did you bring toilet water?"
"He Huan has."
"Spray some toilet water, the mosquitoes on the island are particularly fierce." Chen Yuan said.
"Okay." Yan Xiaoxi went back to the cabin.
Chen Yuan turned on the boom machine and saw his father coming over: "Dad, Uncle Yan." ”
The two waved.
"Xu Ming, Xu Xing, I'm coming back soon." Hikofuri shouted.
"Right now."
Chen Yuan hoisted two annex boats up, and Xu Xing and the others came over.
"Third uncle, little uncle, how many seafood did you get?" Chen Yuan asked.
"I saw a few oysters, a few conchs. It was not big, so it was released. Xu Xing said, "Do you have a speargun?" ”
"Speargun?"
Xu Xing nodded.
"No, I'm armed with a speargun. The resort should have spearguns. Chen Yuandao.
"Holding a school of fish, just a steel fork?" Xu Xing asked.
"Alloy guns like spears."
"Are there many fish near the resort?" Xu Ming said: "I have a speargun, but I didn't bring it on the yacht, it's a pity." There are a lot of fish here, too. ”
Chen Yuan continued to hoist the annex boat, shaking his head: "There are no fish in the lagoon of the resort. The barrier reef outside the lagoon has a lot of fish. In addition, the lagoon where the resort is located is located is located on the opposite side of the outlet, and there are many fish and lobsters in the lagoon for about 20 kilometers. ”
"You're talking about the Navuthu Lagoon Islands?" Xu Xing asked.
Navutu, the local language means pristine. The pristine lagoon archipelago is made up of 4 smaller islands surrounded by a barrier reef......
"Seems to be."
"Is that a private lagoon archipelago where you can go diving?"
"I guess so. Zhou Sheng took me there to catch lobsters before. Chen Yuan said: "There seem to be four relatively large islands over there, and there is also a crater barrier reef, which is a private archipelago?" ”
Xu Xing said 'um': "The Navtu Lagoon Islands are being sold on the Internet, and the entire inner circle of the barrier reef is for sale, and the asking price is 110 million US dollars." ”
"It doesn't have to be that expensive." Yan Fuli smiled and said, "About 100 million US dollars can be taken down." ”
Chen Yuan looked at Yan Fuli.
$100 million, that's astronomical wealth.
You must know that the 3,085-acre Canathea Island was previously sold for only $25 million.
There are also 1,200 acres of land on the island of Vatu in Vanuatu, which owns a large barrier reef, and the offer is $55 million.
There is also an 800-acre island with large plantations, resort facilities, and also beautiful reefs...... This one costs $65 million.
The Navuthu Lagoon archipelago has four larger islands, the largest of which is estimated to be 520 acres. The remaining three islands are much smaller, and the exact size of the island is not clear for the time being......
】
However, Zhou Sheng said that those are desert islands, and there are no people on the islands and no buildings.
The water in the lagoon outside the Navtu Lagoon archipelago is shallow, but the water inside the lagoon is quite deep.
The island itself is not particularly valuable, what is valuable is the facilities on the island.
A couple of small islands with no facilities, worth nearly $100 million? However, if you include the lagoon, the lagoon is quite large......
"Are you interested?" Xu Xing asked.
Chen Yuan shook his head: "It's too expensive, I don't have that much money." ”
"The reason why the Navtu Lagoon Islands are worth so much money is that the Navtu Lagoon has a license to grow clams and clams, and the water quality of the lagoon can also be used to grow black pearls. We had previously contacted the owner of the island after seeing it on the real estate website, wanting to cooperate with him in farming, but they did not agree. Xu Xing shrugged.
Not only breeding, but there are clams in Navtu Lagoon, and they wanted to buy a batch from there, but the price was not negotiated.
"So, can the clams of the Navtu Lagoon Islands be legally sold?" Chen Yuan asked.
Xu Xing nodded: "Otherwise, it wouldn't be worth $100 million over there." ”
Cultivating clams?
I haven't heard Zhou Sheng mention it.
"I've heard that clams grow very slowly, only a few millimeters a year? So how to raise? ”
"A few millimeters to twenty millimeters a year, the kind is a long clams. The clams bred here in Fiji are large clams, which can grow up to a few hundred catties in weight. The large clams grow relatively quickly, and can grow more than ten centimeters a year. The clams sold in restaurants here in Fiji are basically large clams. ”
It is included in the IUCN Red List of Endangered Species and in China's List of National Key Protected Wild Animals (wild populations only).
Hundreds of millions of dollars invested, no money.
Then there is the breeding of clams, to earn 100 million US dollars, it is like a fantasy.
Chen Yuan hoisted all the auxiliary boats up, retracted the paddling deck, and entered the cabin.
Chen Xin, He Huan, Xiaoxi's mother, Xiaoxi's aunt, four people play mahjong.
Chen's mother leaned next to Chen Xin, and Yan Xiaoxi sat next to He Huan.
The mahjong room of the yacht seems to be pretty good.
"It's going to be five o'clock, don't you go back?" Chen Yuan asked.
"This game is over." He Huan said.
After guarding them for another game, Chen Yuan went to the cab and started to wear.
Chen's father went to the bow of the ship and helped Chen Yuan take back the anchor.
There were two motorboats, one in Xu Xing and one in Yan Fuli, and on the way back, they ran ahead......
The two motorboats were fast, and they disappeared after a while.
He Huan and the others were still in the mahjong room, and Chen Yuan only opened until the twelfth or thirteenth section, which was steady, but it took more than forty minutes to return to Fulanga Atoll.
After anchoring and the yacht is stable, turn off the engine.
Chen Yuan put down the dinghy.
Chen Xin drove the dinghy to the pier to tow the 7.1-meter annex boat over, and Chen Yuan continued to put the dinghy on the boat......
The group made a small boat and soon came to the coconut grove in the eastern suburbs.
It's evening, and the sun is about to set.
Chen Yuan went to the island, yawning and stretching.
"Tired, huh?" Yan Xiaoxi looked at the listless Chen Yuan and raised her eyebrows.
"No, I'm in good spirits." Chen Yuan said with a smile.
"I'll go back and take a shower first." Yan Xiaoxi said: "You go to the restaurant by yourself first." ”
Chen Yuan nodded.
went out with a large group of people, not playing comfortably, but a little tired.
Chen Yuan followed the trail behind the beach and went to the trailing beach.
There were a few strangers sitting on this side of the beach, and Zhou Sheng was also here.
"Far away." Zhou Sheng shouted with a smile and threw the yacht key over.
Chen Yuan took the key and walked over, and threw it to him again: "You can keep it, I won't need that boat for the time being." ”
"Okay. Let me introduce you, these are domestic tourists, Brother Zhao, Brother Wang, Brother Li......" Zhou Sheng introduced.
Chen Yuan was not good at dealing with people, and he didn't like to deal with people, so he just said hello and went to the next table.
Zhou Sheng shouted to the waiter to take two bottles of beer and sat next to Chen Yuan: "Isn't it fun to go out today?" ”
"The sea water of Wulai Island is very beautiful, but there are many mosquitoes." Chen Yuan said with a smile.
"The resort has just opened, and now is the peak tourist season, so if you are not busy in a few days, you can also take me out to play a game and be romantic."
"I'll take you out? Romantic ghost. ”
"Romance between men, you know." Zhou Sheng laughed.
"I know a Cuizi." Chen Yuan took the beer brought by the waiter, bit the cap of the bottle, and took a sip: "I heard that the atoll opposite is for sale?" ”
"The one we went to catch lobsters before?"
"Hmm." Chen Yuan nodded.
"It's been on the Internet for half a year. I still know the owner of the atoll,......" Zhou Sheng said: "The owner of the atoll is also the owner of a small island on our side. Didn't I buy a Bombardier 260 for someone, it's his? What, want? ”
"100 million, dollars, I'm almost crazy." Chen Yuan said: "Are you breeding clams over there? ”
"I heard that millions of Fijian dollars of clams seedlings have been put in before and after." Zhou Sheng shrugged his shoulders, spread his hands, and said with a smile: "I've been there many times, and there are very few clams and lobsters in the barrier reef area. ”
Chen Yuan is curious about breeding clams, and he is also curious about clams, so ask.
Not to mention that Chen Yuan doesn't have so much money, even if he has so much money, he won't invest. 100 million US dollars, specially bought a lagoon to breed clams, crazy begging.
If you really want to breed clams, you can rent a sea area.
Fiji has many islands and more barrier reefs, so it doesn't cost much to rent a sea area where you can breed clams.
