Golden Fishery

  Code word while working overtime, not eggshell, but egg pain! &&&&

Laver is a collective term for the alternate algae in the sea. It belongs to red algae. The color is generally purple or brown-green, with various shapes and varieties. There are several kinds of laver, algae laver, and sweet laver in Daqin fishery. What Qin Shiou taught the children to choose was Laver.

  Before, he explained to the children that seaweed is dried and roasted seaweed, which is correct. But seaweed is not all seaweed, and some seaweed cannot be eaten. Daqin fishery is more suitable for seaweed.

  This kind of seaweed is easy to distinguish. It is a strip about 20 centimeters long. The algae are bright purple-red. They grow around the reef and are entangled in clusters.

  Powell wanted to uproot the laver, Qin Shiou hurriedly stopped and asked Nelson to take a few knives, and said: “Cut them off and leave them with roots. In the future, when the sea water rises, they will grow again.”

  Porphyra yezoensis generally has the thicker the leaves and the thicker the rhizomes, the better, otherwise, as soon as they are baked in the sun, there is no meat to eat. In addition, the thick leaves tend to have thick tendons, and the seaweed made by doing this has chewy heads.

The seaweed in Daqin Fishery is all qualified, with thick leaves, long roots and thick stems. After all, it absorbs the energy of the sea god. Shaq collected some and put it in front of his nose, sniffed, and exclaimed, "Well, BOSS, the taste is delicious. It must be delicious after roasting."

  Compared to the over-eaten sea fish, the children are still more interested in seaweed. This is a snack. They mix it with popcorn when watching TV or playing games. One is delicious and the other is delicious. They are very popular.

  Qin Shiou poured out a few boxes specially for laver. Wei Ni smiled at Liu Shuyan and said: "We can drink seaweed egg soup at noon. Do you like eggs, duck eggs, goose eggs or wild bird eggs?"

  "You are welcome..." Liu Shuyan waved his hand quickly.

  Vini smiled and said, “No, you’re welcome. There are so many eggs here. We can harvest all kinds of eggs every day. I can’t eat them. I hope you like them.”

  The children are collecting seaweed like a competition. Shirley suddenly exclaimed: "Hey, come and see, there is a fish here that can crawl on the beach!"

  The surrounding children all ran over to watch, Xiao Shaq said with a grin, "What's so strange about this? It must be the American eel. My dad and I have seen this kind of fish climb onto the car... Hey, it's not the American eel?!"

  Fish's home game is in the ocean, but this does not mean that they can't move on land in the away game.

  According to Darwin’s theory of species evolution, mammals all evolved from fish. In other words, starting from the Devonian period 350 million years ago, some ancient fish broke out of the water, gradually adapted to the terrestrial environment, and then continued to evolve, finally forming humans.

  According to Qin Shiou's knowledge, some bony fishes can live out of water for a period of time if they are tired. I don’t know if they will evolve into adults if conditions permit...

Seeing the children yelling there, he followed and looked at it. At first, he guessed that it was American eels. This kind of fish can live out of the sea for more than ten minutes. He has encountered a few before, but these eels are very common. Cleverly got into the wet sand hole and could get through the high tide, so he didn't catch it.

  Walking up to this fish, Qin Shiou was a little stunned when he saw it. Hey. It's not an American eel, it's a fish that hasn't appeared before.

  This fish looks very strange, a bit like an elongated frog without legs, with a dark brown back. The abdomen is gray with 6 black strips on the back. Irregular greenish-brown spots all over the body.

  It has very small eyes protruding above the back of the head, and its lower eyelids are very developed, and its teeth can be exposed even when its mouth is opened. Even Qin Shiou discovered that it has canine teeth and a wide wedge-shaped tail fin that can jump on the beach.

Fortunately, Qin Shiou is well-informed. He has never found this kind of fish in a fishing ground, but he knew it, and explained: "This is a mudskipper. You can also call it a jumping fish. Newfoundland fisheries are relatively rare, and they are usually found in the tropics. It is more common in the sea, and it may have come to us along the warm current of Mexico."

  Yes, this weird guy is a mudskipper. Although it doesn’t look like a fish at all, it has gills and fins. It is an ancient fish animal with a low level of evolution.

The habit of mudskippers is different from ordinary fish. As long as their skin is kept moist, they can directly extract oxygen from the air through the skin to breathe. In addition, there are small pockets around their gills that can hold water for one breath, just like humans. It's the same as holding your breath.

  There are no mangroves in Daqin Fishing Ground, otherwise mudskippers can show their other talent, which is climbing. In this respect, they are geniuses among fishes. They can use their pelvic fins as suction cups, grab the trees and crawl up to the canopy with their pectoral fins.

  Qin Shiou saw that the children were interested in this mudskipper, so he introduced what he knew. After the introduction, he asked: "Okay, what else do you know? Mention it."

   "Is it delicious?" Xiao Shaq asked immediately, "I think it's fat."

  Qin Shiou was in a cold sweat, gave him a crash and said: "I know how to eat and eat, and I will let your father stew you back and eat it!"

  After finishing, he picked up this mudskipper and sent it to a puddle. With this water to buffer the time, it can wait until the tide is high.

  It’s not the first time Shaq saw mudskippers, but he saw mudskippers at the fishing grounds of Farewell Island, and asked strangely: “Why does this kind of fish appear in temperate fishing grounds like ours? The temperature of the water is not enough now, right?”

  Qin Shiou shrugged and guessed: "Maybe it came here along the Gulf Stream, and then it was lucky to survive. What do you think?"

  Shaq also shrugged: "I can only think so, my brain is not good, I don't understand any messy things like science, biology, oceanography."

  The children worked for more than an hour and finally became tired. Qin Shiou asked them to go ashore to roast seaweed and kelp.

  There are relatively few mussels in Daqin fishing grounds, and there are not many scallops on the beach, which makes the activity of picking fish lose a lot of fun.

  Michelle walked along the coast for a while, and then picked up two adult palm-sized yellow mussels. They looked quite beautiful. The shells were clean, with smooth textures and egg-yellow colors, giving them a pure feeling.

After picking up these two mussels, Michelle ran back happily. A group of children gathered around to watch. Qin Shiou smiled and said, "Call Bill back and buy a batch of mussels. Maybe our fish farm It can also become a pearl gathering field."

  Although he said it casually, Qin Shiou was quite attentive, that is, cultured shellfish is also good, besides being able to eat it, he can also produce pearls.

  The two mussels passed back and forth and disappeared. Michelton was dumbfounded and exclaimed: "Where are my shells? Where are my two shells?"

  A group of bad boys stretched out their hands blankly in a helpless manner. Xiao Shaq pointed to Gordon and said, "It must be with you. I saw you put the shells in your pocket just now!"

   "You are talking nonsense, Shaq, you must have taken it away, only you are so greedy!" Gordon retorted unwillingly. (To be continued~^~)
