My Deep-sea Fishery

Xiang Yang is not embarrassed when his mind is broken.

Xiang Yang pretended to be puzzled and innocent, and asked Gao Chuang, "Mr. Gao, are these horseshoe crabs allowed to be traded in China?"

Gao Chuang is also a person who has matured from age to age. After hearing what Xiang Yang said, he immediately understood what Xiang Yang meant.

"To be honest, I haven't seen horseshoe crabs being bought and sold in the domestic market. I don't know if this thing can be sold." Gao Chuang said nonsense.

Grant tilted his head, "Gao, Xiang, don't you really know that this thing can be bought and sold in your place?"

Both Xiang Yang and Gao Chuang shook their heads.

"It turns out that you don't know, so let me tell you some good news. This is the American horseshoe crab, which is slightly different from your Asian horseshoe crab. It can be bought and sold in your country, and it is a very popular seafood." Grant smiled.

Xiang Yang thought inwardly that it's a pity that the foreigner actually knew about it.

Although there are not many horseshoe crabs living in my country's territorial waters, they are actually quite common because they live on the sandy bottom of the water within 40 meters.

Speaking of horseshoe, this name may not be very familiar to many people.

But if it has another name, I am afraid most people know it.

Its other name is Chinese horseshoe crab.

People in the north might be surprised to see this kind of guy, but people who live along the southern coast probably know what it is.

The appearance of the American horseshoe crab is greenish brown, while the Chinese horseshoe crab is grayish green.

Female horseshoe crabs are bigger than males, so during the mating season, fishermen at the seaside can often see female horseshoe crabs crawling on the beach with her thin husband. In the past, when horseshoe crabs were not protected animals, many fishermen would catch horseshoe crabs at this time.

Xiang Yang asked Ge Lan, "How much are you going to pay for one?"

Grant held out a finger, "One hundred thousand dollars, absolutely no counter-offer will be accepted."

Xiang Yang frowned, put the horseshoe crab in his hand back into the water tank, then shook his head and said, "It's too expensive, it's not worth the price."

"No, it's definitely worth the price. At present, the price of a liter of blue blood in the international market is as high as 20,000 U.S. dollars. If you buy these horseshoe crabs back, it won't take long for you to double your income." Ge Lan shook his head.

Horseshoe crabs have an extremely rare blue blood.

This is because the horseshoe crab is a very low-level primitive organism that uses copper to transport oxygen.

The combination of copper and oxygen is blue, so the blood of horseshoe crabs is blue.

A very precious limulus reagent can be extracted from the blue blood of horseshoe crabs.

This reagent can accurately and quickly detect whether the tissues in the human body are infected by bacteria, and make a rapid diagnosis for the treatment of emergency patients.

In addition, this blue blood can also be widely used in the pharmaceutical and food industries to monitor toxin contamination.

At present, this kind of blue blood is widely used in the fields of pharmaceuticals and scientific research. It is the best way to detect endotoxin.

Xiang Yang looked at Gao Chuang, "I don't have the ability to extract its blood, Mr. Gao, do you want it?"

"I have the ability to extract its blood, but I don't have the ability to continue to feed it after drawing blood. A live horseshoe crab is definitely not worth more than a million. Don't." Gao Chuang said without thinking.

Xiang Yang secretly said it was a pity.

If he had enough money, Xiang Yang really wanted to buy these horseshoe crabs back.

It's not a question of how much you can earn.

But horseshoe crabs are very important for medical treatment, scientific research, and even daily food.

Every horseshoe crab transported back to the country can truly enhance the national strength. This is a living strategic material.

This is why our country will vigorously protect the horseshoe crabs in its territorial waters and strictly prohibit anyone from catching them for any reason.

At the same time, he paid a large price to buy horseshoe crabs from other countries.

When Ge Lan heard that Xiang Yang and Gao Chuang didn't want it, he immediately became angry again.

"Gao, but you asked me to take out the good things. Now that I have taken out the good things, you don't want them. Is this because you think my things are not good?" Glenn said in a very blunt tone.

Gao Chuang laughed, "It's indeed a good thing, but I'm a fisherman, and I really don't have the skills to get this thing. I will definitely lose money if I buy this thing back."

really.

Although the blood price of horseshoe crabs is very expensive, horseshoe crabs are not so terribly high.

Just this year, the average price of a batch of horseshoe crabs exported from Dongyi was only tens of thousands of yuan each, which is not as expensive as Ge Lan said.

After hearing Gao Chuang's words, Ge Lan's face brightened a little, and he hummed, "Gao, I've already brought out my good things, and once I get them, I get three of them, so you have to express it?"

Gao Chuang laughed, "That's natural, you have made our country addicted to the eyes, and I'm not a stingy person, first officer, go and carry the contents of the first water tank of No. Brother, estimate the price carefully."

"Yes, Mr. Gao." On the side, Gao Chuang's first officer immediately turned over the side of the ship, climbed back to the rubber boat through the hanging ladder, and then quickly returned to the processing mother ship.

Glenn became interested immediately, he smiled and said, "Gao, what are you going to sell me?"

"Don't worry, you'll know when you see it later." Gao Chuang said with a smile.

If it was an ordinary person, it must be Gao Chuangyue who said that, and the more he wanted to know.

But Gelen is obviously not an ordinary person. He smiled slightly, "Okay, but how long will he be going? If it takes a long time, why don't we have a drink in my cabin first?"

"I have the best caviar here, as well as vodka that is extremely suitable for drinking in this environment." Grant smiled.

Gao Chuang took out the cigarette case from his pocket, lit one for himself, and then handed the case to Ge Lan, "Do you want one?"

Grant shook his head, "No, I'm not used to this."

Gao Chuang collected all the cigarette packs, and then exhaled a smoke ring, "My people are very fast, so I won't drink the wine for now. This time I may have a lot to trade with you. Let's talk about business first."

"When we finish talking, go to my boat. I'll treat you to ice fish and open a bottle of your favorite Moutai Zodiac wine." Gao Chuang said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Gren immediately became interested, "Oh? You have a lot of things to trade with me this time, Gao, it seems that you have received a lot of goods this time."

As for drinking, Grant didn't mention a word.
