My Deep-sea Fishery

Chapter 644 The Difficult Starfish

Soon, Xiang Yang brought the little purple starfish to the surface of the sea.

"How is it? Mr. Xiang, are you satisfied with this reef?" Boss Zhang asked Xiang Yang with a smile.

"Not very satisfied." Xiang Yang took off his diving equipment, and then put the palm-sized purple starfish on the coffee table, "I found this on the bottom of the sea."

"Huh? Starfish?" Wu Shiwen's expression changed, and his eyes towards the boss became weird.

Boss Zhang naturally picked up the purple starfish from the table, "It turned out to be the culprit of this thing. No wonder I sent so many people down there, but they didn't find any symptoms. Purple starfish likes to hide in deep water areas. It’s fast, and likes to come out at night.”

Xiang Yang took a sip of tea, "If it is in the water, it will cause great losses to the fishermen, especially for some farmers, it is the natural enemy of shellfish and abalone, and shellfish are the main source of food for farmers. The main food of fish, abalone is the wealth and life of farmers, no wonder you, Boss Zhang, put away such a precious piece of land and don’t want it.”

The five horns on the body of the purple starfish can open all shellfish, and it can also secrete digestive enzymes to kill shellfish including crabs bit by bit, and then suck the tissue of the prey dry. At the bottom of the sea, basically there is no need to consider farming abalone.

Boss Zhang sighed, "It's no wonder that the abalone fry I put in there are only one shell left for some reason. It turned out that these purple starfish are responsible. With these purple starfish, it seems that there is no way to raise the abalone."

Xiang Yang looked at Boss Zhang without saying a word.

Boss Zhang continued: "But since you have gone down, you should have seen it. The entire bottom is actually a huge coral reef, which is very suitable for stocking grouper. The price of grouper is not cheap."

Xiang Yang smiled, shook his head and said: "Grouper is easy to raise, but when it grows big, how to catch it? There are coral reefs everywhere below, and you can't even cast a net. Then you have to spend a lot of effort to catch it. If these groupers are caught, if the weather goes well in a year, they can still earn some hard money, but if there is a typhoon or other accidents, this year will be a net loss, and the fry money and contract fees will all be lost. net."

"It's risky, but it also makes money. I'm old and I don't want to take this risk anymore. Mr. Xiang, you are young, so you don't want to take this risk?" Boss Zhang said with a smile.

"It's not that I don't want to take the risk, it's that the risk is not proportional to the reward. With so much money, it's enough for me to buy another large fishing boat."

Get another large fishing boat back, and you can catch more fish every time you go out, which is much faster than this.

Of course, the advantage of farming lies in stability, and fishing still depends on the sea for food.

"In this way, I'll give you a lower price. Sixty-five years, 10 million, and the two fishing boats parked over there will all belong to you. What do you think?" Boss Zhang asked.

Xiang Yang glanced at the surface of the sea, the two fishing boats were small and medium-sized fishing boats, not as big as the first boat Xiang Yang bought, it was okay to work in this sea area, but it was unrealistic to go out to sea.

Ten million should be the reserve price for this surname Zhang.

"To tell the truth, I'm very excited, but the purple starfish on the bottom of the sea can't be solved. This reef can only raise grouper. For me, the profit of grouper is still a bit small." Existing declined.

Xiang Yang can indeed dive to the bottom of the sea.

But relying on Xiang Yang to dive to the bottom of the sea to catch purple starfish by himself, this is like catching fleas on a dog. It will take the year of the monkey to catch all those purple starfish.

As for the starfish's natural enemies?

As long as starfish reach adulthood, they have almost no natural enemies, only seagulls will occasionally prey on them.

In fact, the biggest enemy of Purple Starfish is Chaoyang Starfish.

But Chaoyang starfish is also the natural enemy of abalone.

Individually, no creature can be regarded as a natural enemy of starfish.

But race does.

If there is a group of tiger head crabs that is not much different from the starfish group, the group of tiger head crabs will mobilize the power of the whole group to encircle and suppress the starfish, and kill all the starfish in the entire sea area, not letting go of a single tentacle , until one of them dies completely.

But if the number of tiger head crabs is slightly less than the number of starfish, the tiger head crabs will only migrate as a whole, and will not compete with the starfish at all.

Competing with a group of purple sea stars that have bred for an unknown number of years and have plenty of food, where can Xiang Yang find so many tiger head crabs?

If you spend money to buy it, I'm afraid 100 million won't beat it.

"Oh." Boss Zhang sighed, "These damned starfish."

It can be seen that this boss really hates those starfish.

If the water under the reef had been shallower, Xiang Yang would not have doubted whether the boss would spend a lot of money to hire people to go under the water to wipe out all the starfish.

Starfish are more difficult creatures than cockroaches.

Adult starfish have skin covered in tiny tentacles that attack anything that disturbs them, and they clean their skin to protect themselves from parasites.

The most outrageous thing is that there is a species called sand starfish. If someone grabs them with their hands, they will explode like a balloon, instantly blowing themselves into countless fragments, and after a while, these fragments will become into countless small starfish.

"Dragon Ball" Majin Buu's ability to explode into countless small Buu is set according to the starfish.

Wu Shiwen hesitated for a while, and then said: "Actually, I think the entire reef can be surrounded by buoy seines. As long as the starfish cannot reach the reef, then these starfish will naturally be solved." .”

Boss Zhang looked at Wu Shiwen, held the teacup lightly and did not speak.

Xiang Yang shook his head, "It's not realistic at all. There are several typhoons in this place a year, and it doesn't cost much to surround it once a year, but is it possible for you to surround it several times a year?"

There are too many restrictions on reef farming.

Otherwise, such clear sea water would not only be able to raise grouper and abalone.

Because if you keep other fish, they will all run away.

"Mr. Xiang, it seems that you also know aquaculture very well." Boss Zhang said with a smile.

Xiang Yang shook his head, "I understand a little bit about commonsense things, but I don't understand the real technical things."

"I don't know, is Mr. Xiang interested in cooperating with me?" Boss Zhang laughed.

"Cooperation? What kind of cooperation method?" Xiang Yang asked.

"In fact, there are no problems that humans can't solve. Although those starfish are difficult, if I really want to solve them, it's not that I can't solve them at all. It's just that I'm really old, and I really don't have such ambitions now, and I don't want to. I will continue to stay on the sea. Is Mr. Xiang interested in selling this reef? I have someone who understands the technology. After cleaning up those starfish, you only need to be responsible for buying some fish fry every year, and then you can sit and collect money. "
