Chapter 174: Paid Cleaners
Zhang Yaohua also went to the island to take a look, and saw that they were piling up building materials inside, so he was relieved.
Since it is necessary to build and build roads, it is inevitable to dig them. Three excavators had been sent to the island, but they didn't dare to dig around, or even to run around with the excavators, and some vegetation was crushed, which was enough for them to drink a pot.
Yesterday's planning meeting made it clear that the island's vegetation should be preserved as much as possible.
Of course, the groundbreaking ceremony has not yet begun, and the workers do not dare to work indiscriminately.
"Master, it's okay to smoke, but don't throw cigarette butts away!" Zhang Yaohua saw the excavator master who was smoking, so he went up to remind him.
In order to beautify Jinji Island, the village director organized the village's people to clean up the garbage on the entire island. Although there are few people here, even if it is an uninhabited island, the ocean brings garbage.
Many of the so-called desert islands are actually garbage islands, full of all kinds of marine garbage.
Tourists come to play, they are very environmentally conscious, and they do not leave household garbage on this beautiful island. The quality of this class of tourists is getting higher and higher.
The excavator master nodded hurriedly, knowing that this master was Party A's father, how dare he offend?
"Understood, understood! We'll take the cigarette butts with us later. ”
"Thank you for your understanding, I'm going to invite you to dinner and drink tonight."
The excavator master was immediately overjoyed: "Then thank you Boss Zhang." ”
A person in charge ran over and immediately assured Zhang Yaohua that he would definitely control these people and would not smoke on the island.
Zhang Yaohua waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's not that serious, it's okay to smoke, just remember to take the cigarette butts away." You don't have to be too harsh on the workers, it's not easy for everyone, so don't target them. ”
The person in charge breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that this father of Party A was quite easy to talk.
When Zhang Yaohua walked away, he turned around and said to the workers seriously: "Remember everything!" Don't litter here, a cigarette butt must also be picked up for me, for me to find out, fine. ”
"Foreman Wang, don't worry! Based on Boss Zhang's words just now, we must also abide by discipline. ”
"That's it!"
They were talking to them just now!
Zhang Yaohua walked towards the tourists.
"Is it fun?"
I saw that the tourists were cleaning the barnacles, and he really obeyed them. It seems that cleaning barnacles on Jinji Island has become one of the must-play items for tourists.
That's outrageous.
Many people in the village couldn't understand their behavior, and discussed in private, why are the people in the city so weird now?
"It's fun, look, here's the barnacle I got today. Owner, do you think this barnacle can be eaten? I've heard that barnacles taste good. One of the visitors also showed off the fruits of his labor.
Zhang Yaohua nodded: "Most barnacles can be eaten, and those attached to the ship may have absorbed paint, etc., so it's best not to eat them, this is no problem." ”
For a long time, barnacles were considered shellfish, and they were eventually found to be crustaceans.
Most of the barnacles we see are attached to other creatures, so we will have the impression that the barnacles are not moving. In fact, before barnacles grow, larvae go through three stages: planktonic, nauplii, and adenoids.
After breaking its shell, barnacles usually run around with the current, which is its floating phase. Barnacles grow a little and then become nauplii, at this stage each barnacle usually lasts 2-3 weeks.
A fully developed barnacle enters the adenoid stage.
At this stage, barnacles need to find a suitable place for themselves to attach.
Once you've chosen your "mount", the barnacles can move with their small tentacles. Once they have found a suitable location, they begin to secrete colloidal glands to avoid situations where the biological movement to which they are attached causes them to fall off.
I have to say, this thing is a nightmare existence for other sea creatures.
In particular, slow-moving marine creatures such as sea turtles and gray whales are the focus of barnacles' "care".
For example, gray whales.
Gray whales are large sea creatures that provide a large parasitic environment for barnacles. In addition, gray whales swim at a slower speed of only about 7 kilometers per hour and are favorable hosts for barnacles.
Barnacles usually choose softer places to attach to, such as the animal's nostrils, lips, and even genitals.
While barnacles do not snatch nutrients from their hosts like other parasites do, they sink deeper and deeper over time, and the places where they attach can become itchy.
And whales don't scratch like humans do. They can only accept the itching of barnacles day after day.
Some whales jump up from the water to relieve the pain and then fall heavily to the surface in an attempt to shake off the barnacles attached to them.
Therefore, when I saw whales jumping out of the water, it was not that they had any habits, but that they wanted to get rid of the barnacles on their bodies.
"How to eat?" Someone asked.
"It's the same as other seafood, it's okay to steam, it's okay, you might as well try it." Zhang Yaohua told them.
He also ate these barnacles and did not tell a lie.
Zhang Yaohua saw that among the "harvests" of one of the tourists, there were also some sea pheasant feet, that is, gooseneck barnacles that he had sold before, and some people called them dog claw snails.
"Brother, this kind of dog claw snail is quite expensive, thousands of yuan a catty!"
The man was pleasantly surprised.
"Ouch! You've got to taste it, I've heard of it. There's still a reef over there, I'll go get a little more. ”
Zhang Yaohua reminded: "Pay attention to safety! There is still danger on the other side of the reef. ”
But there is no wave today, and Zhang Yaohua will not stop everyone and disappoint everyone.
When the others heard this, they also went over there.
The barnacles on the turtles are no longer enough to satisfy them. If this continues, the barnacles on those reefs may be cleaned up by them one by one.
Who is this tourist?
Clearly a cleaner.
It's still free.
Oh! Mistakenly, it's paid.
"Owner, what kind of snail is this? I just picked it up, can I eat it? ”
At some point, tourists began to call him the owner.
And these people are worthy of us Chinese, and when they find something, their first reaction is whether they can eat it.
"Eating" is always the first place in the minds of our people.
Nothing is more important than "eating".
The people live on food!
This statement is not made up in a vacuum.
Zhang Yaohua glanced at it, it was a snail.
"This is a harp snail, you can eat it, don't be afraid to find a few more."
Harp snails are favored because of their gorgeous appearance, beautiful patterns and bright tones, and they can also be eaten, and they are distributed in the East China Sea and the South China Sea.
Its shell surface is flesh-colored and shiny, with regular white and tan wavy patterns in the body snail layer, a large shell mouth, brown on the inner lip and the outside of the shell axis, and a vestigial or absent mouth cover.
This shell is beautiful and can be used as a craft in itself.
