After being reborn as the Dragon King, I made a fortune on seafood

Lu Ao and the others stayed at sea for one night.

Lao Luo was agitated all night, Lu Ao sat cross-legged on his boat, and heard him on the phone over there, telling their company that he had discovered the dugong.

He emphatically emphasized that Lu Ao also found a manatee at the bottom, saying that this manatee may be a new species, just like the previous Stella sea cow.

This sea cow is named after its discoverer.

Lu Ao listened to his excited voice for half the night. During the period, several times, someone suggested that he take advantage of tonight and go down to have a look again to determine the situation below.

Lao Luo also agreed, but every time he put on his equipment and wanted to go into the sea, he would always look into Lu Ao's cold and beautiful eyes from afar.

Lao Luo and the others are a little afraid of Lu Ao. It may be because Lu Ao is too famous, or it may be because he is cold and has a bad personality.

Every time before Lao Luo puts on the equipment, he convinces himself in his heart that he doesn't care about Lu Ao's opinion, just go to sea by himself.

However, as soon as he saw Lu Ao, his courage disappeared without a trace.

He instinctively sensed danger.

Lao Luo put on and took off his equipment, took it off and put it on again, hesitated for a long time, but he didn't dare to go into the water.

Lu Ao sat on the deck, leaning against the railing, staring at Lao Luo who was walking back and forth on the deck, in a very ordinary mood.

He originally agreed with Song Zhou to let Song Zhou come over at night.

They are on their own boat, and they can still sleep together at night with their arms around each other.

The old Luo thief on the opposite side is not dead, Lu Ao has no way to ignore the manatees below, he is afraid that the other party will poach them.

At this moment, even if he wants to date again, Lu Ao can only forget it.

He called Song Zhou, briefly explained the situation, and then continued to stare at Lao Luo and the others.

This night, most of the people did not fall asleep, especially Lao Luo and Zhou Mingyi.

The two communicated with the company all night, and their voices became hoarse.

It wasn't until four o'clock in the morning that Lao Luo didn't give up. He put on his equipment for the last time and went out to look around, only to see Lu Ao sleeping on a mat on the deck.

As soon as he got close to the railing, Lu Ao sat up and turned his head in his direction.

Lao Luo had no choice but to go back to the cabin.

People from the Maritime and Shipping Public Security Bureau of Qianyong City came very quickly, and they arrived just after six o'clock in the morning.

They also came with people from the Marine Ecology and Environment Department of the Fisheries Bureau.

They came in a law enforcement boat, and they seemed to take this matter seriously.

Xiao Du came along.

Their boat approached slowly, and Xiaodu's partner Lao Gao put his hands on the deck and asked Lu Ao loudly: "Little brother Lu, what's the situation now?"

"Yesterday when we went to the sea to investigate, we found dugongs and manatees in this sea of ​​giant kelp, so we called the police."

"Are you sure?" Lao Gao doubted, "They are not from the same family and genus at all, how could they be together?"

The manatee is a genus of the manatee in the family Manateeidae of the order Manatee.

Dugongs belong to the genus Dugong in the family Dugongaceae of the order Manatee.

It stands to reason that these two types of marine life would not mix together.

Lu Ao nodded, "Very sure. I saw its tail."

The person from the Fisheries Bureau asked: "Did you take pictures yesterday? Can you show us?"

Lao Luo and the others were on the sidelines, and only now did they find a chance to intervene, "Of course. It's inconvenient to talk like this, why don't you come over and chat on our boat?"

The people from the Fisheries Bureau didn't object, "Okay, then we'll come over."

Lao Luo smiled, and helped them pass more enthusiastically.

Xiao Du and Lao Gao also hurriedly followed.

Before boarding Lao Luo's boat, Xiao Du greeted, "Brother Lu, are you coming too? Let's have a chat and summarize the current situation?"

Lu Ao looked at his boat, "No need, go over and talk first, and I'll take you on an underwater survey later."

When the people from the Fisheries Bureau heard this, they immediately said: "Then please wait a moment, let's use 10 minutes to briefly understand the previous situation."

Lu Ao nodded, "I'll put on the equipment first."

Lao Luo originally wanted to speak with the Fisheries Bureau and the police. The employees of the UG company were the discoverers of dugongs. It is best to link the UG company with manatees and dugongs and make an advertisement.

After going ashore, you should say the same in front of reporters.

Who knew that as soon as Lu Ao said this, the people from the Fisheries Bureau were immediately attracted, and they didn't have the time to chat with them slowly.

Lao Luo and Zhou Mingyi had no choice but to briefly explain yesterday's situation after looking at each other, and then went to change their equipment as well.

Yesterday Lu Ao said that he found a manatee, but in fact, apart from Lu Ao, no one really saw whether there was a manatee.

Lao Luo and the others had to go into the water again to make sure.

Otherwise, if the action is slow, Lu Ao may abandon them and only take the people from the Fisheries Bureau into the water.

As for the discoverer of the dugong, I had to leave it to the company's public relations department to talk to the leaders of the Fisheries Bureau and the Public Security Bureau.

Lu Ao quickly put on his equipment.

His all-black diving suit made him tall and long-legged, standing out there, just like a model, very conspicuous.

The people from the Fisheries Bureau originally planned to spend 10 minutes to understand the previous situation, but unexpectedly caught a glimpse of Lu Ao from the corner of their eyes, and all their minds were attracted.

Immediately, no one was in the mood to talk slowly, they just wanted to dive into the sea to see if there were really manatees.

Three people from the Fisheries Bureau came this time, Lao Ma, Lao Wang and Xiao Wei.

The first two are middle-aged people, and the latter is a college student who has just graduated.

They have worked in the Fisheries Bureau for so long, and they have never seen wild dugongs.

The three of them were very excited when they said they were going to dive down to find dugongs.

Lu Ao watched them put on their equipment, and then instructed them to check it out. After making sure that there was no problem, he took them into the water.

A total of ten people dived to find the dugong this time.

Three people from the Fisheries Bureau, five people from UG Company, plus Lu Ao and Xiao Du.

Lu Ao got into the water first, swam over to the side of the big boat and waited for them.

Lao Luo jumped into the water, and while trying to float himself, he said to Lu Ao, "Brother Lu, I will trouble you today."

"No trouble." Lu Ao said, "When you go down, don't get too close to the dugongs, and try not to disturb them."

Xiao Wei hurriedly said: "Don't worry, we all know the diver's rules."

Lu Ao nodded, "Then get ready to go."

It was past seven in the morning when they entered the water.

The sun has risen, and the orange light shines on the sea like broken gold.

Lu Ao pressed down and dived into the water.

Visibility is good today and the sea is relatively calm below the surface.

When they dived, the surrounding giant algae floated in the sea one by one, and a series of them seemed to form a forest.

Lu Ao led them carefully over the giant algae, and led them to swim forward while diving.

During this period, Lu Ao kept looking back at them to make sure that everyone was not left behind.

Two of the five people from UG have brought underwater cameras and have been recording the current situation.

Xiao Wei of the Fisheries Bureau also opened the underwater camera.

They were curious about the fish swimming in the giant algae.

During the filming, they have been actively tracking the fish captured by the camera.

Diving itself is a relatively slow process, even if it is a little slower, it will be fine.

Lu Ao didn't rush them, and he undertook the sampling work while they were filming.

When he dived yesterday, he also took samples, and specially collected a relatively small macroalgae for UG company.

Zhou Mingyi didn't say anything, he was quite satisfied with his work.

It took them more than ten minutes to dive to the bottom of the sea.

Lu Ao led them to continue swimming.

When Lao Luo and the others looked forward, they could only see layers of macroalgae and various fish, shellfish and starfish in the macroalgae, but no dugong at all.

If Lao Luo and the others hadn't seen the existence of dugongs with their own eyes yesterday, he would have doubted whether Lu Ao was lying. There are no dugongs in this sea area.

Haili can't talk, even if you can make gestures, the gestures can only be the most basic gestures, and there is no way to exchange specific opinions.

They have been swimming forward with Lu Ao.

Several people in the team looked suspicious, but the oxygen in the gas cylinder was still sufficient, and Haili couldn't express their opinions, even if they wanted to say something, they had to hold back.

As soon as Lu Ao reached the bottom of the sea, he felt the presence of the dugong group.

He took Lao Luo and the others to swim for more than ten minutes. After swimming past a certain piece of giant algae, they suddenly saw a black shadow in front of them.

More than ten meters away, there are about seventeen large and small dugongs gnawing on seaweed.

The reason for saying roughly is because there are too many giant algae around, blocking some of the dugongs. It is difficult to determine the exact number if they do not swim close to each one to search.

But the creature in front of him was indeed a dugong, and everyone could see it clearly.

What's more, most of the dugongs in front of them are more than two meters long. It is difficult for them to see such a huge body clearly.

Lao Luo did not expect that after one night, they would successfully find the dugong again.

With an incredulous expression on his face, Lao Luo turned his head and gestured for his fellow photographers to quickly follow.

His companion quickly swam over with a camera to shoot.

Xiao Wei also swam over to take pictures.

When they filmed, the dugong was sinking to the bottom of the sea and nibbling on the seaweed that grew on the bottom of the sea.

Lao Luo and the others thought yesterday that the dugongs were feeding on giant algae, but today they found that this is not the case.

Dugongs do eat macroalgae, but more often they eat seagrasses such as halophaga that cling to the sea floor.

When a dugong eats, its mouth is arched, a bit like a pig's nose arching grass.

They eat very meticulously, and basically concentrate on eating when they find a piece of grass until they reach the end of the seagrass.

Lu Ao and the others watched quietly from a dozen meters away.

The dugongs have poor eyesight. I don't know if it's because they didn't see them, or they didn't care when they saw them. Even if they stayed around for a long time, the dugongs would still eat them.

They move very leisurely, and even look a little slow.

Dugongs have to go up to take a breath every ten minutes.

There are too many macroalgae here, layer upon layer.

Their vision was not very good. When the dugong was going upstream, two underwater videographers from UG and Xiao Du immediately caught up to take pictures, but they quickly lost track of them.

Human beings are far less sensitive than other creatures underwater.

Especially now that the water depth is relatively deep, there is no way for them to float up quickly.

The old horse from the Fisheries Bureau turned around and gestured to Lu Ao: Float up or stay here?

Lu Ao looked at the others.

Everyone quickly understood the meaning of his gaze.

Xiao Du was the first to react and made a gesture: stay here

Lao Luo also gestured to vote: stay here

Almost everyone present chose to stay here.

The air in their gas cylinders was still sufficient, and they hadn't seen enough of the dugongs, not to mention that no one had found the manatees yet, and no one wanted to go up.

Lu Ao nodded and gestured to stay where he was.

They continued to observe the dugong colony.

Dugongs go up to take a breath, not all at once, but in groups of three or four, going up slowly alternately.

They go up and down and continue to eat various seaweeds on the bottom of the sea.

Lu Ao had sharp eyes and noticed that they hardly ate meat.

In the process of gnawing seaweed, if they find shellfish in the seaweed, they will silently avoid it.

In addition to this, Lu Ao also found that they don't really like to eat giant algae.

They only raised their heads occasionally to nibble on the leaves of the giant algae, and after nibbling for a while, they dived down again to nibble on the algae on the seabed.

All this happened on the seabed at a depth of more than 60 meters.

The process of dugong eating seaweed is quiet and leisurely, and it looks very stress-free.

Lu Ao raised his wrist and looked at his diving watch.

The current depth is 67 meters.

The bottom of the sea is not flat, it may be tens of meters away, and the bottom of the sea is another depth.

Lu Ao looked at the scale of the diving equipment again. There was still enough air in his cylinder, which could last for about an hour.

Based on this, it can be inferred that there should not be too little gas in the other gas bottles.

There is still time.

Lu Ao gestured to the people behind him, signaling them to follow him.

The people behind him were confused and didn't know why they were following him.

It was Lao Luo who reacted first, suppressed his excitement, and gestured to the people behind, signaling other employees in the company to follow.

Xiao Du also quickly realized that his brother Lu was going to take them to see manatees.

Xiao Du gestured towards Lao Ma and the others.

Seeing that they were all moving, Lu Ao swam forward. Everyone stared at him intently, wondering how he located the manatee.

However, it is too inconvenient to be underwater, even if everyone is full of questions, there is no way to ask them.

Lu Ao didn't care what they were thinking, but just led them to swim forward.

After swimming more than 100 meters, they saw another group of dugongs.

There are only six dugongs in this group, which looks bigger than the previous group.

This group of dugongs is still very leisurely, slowly gnawing on the seaweed on the seabed.

After careful observation for a while, they realized that the group in front of them was not dugongs, but manatees.

The biggest difference between dugongs and manatees is their tails.

Dugong's tail is a bit like that of a dolphin, with a Y-shaped tail.

The manatee's tail is like a paddle, round and flat, oval in shape.

Careful people only need to take a closer look and quickly find the difference.

Lao Luo and the others have been wondering if there is really a manatee there since last night. Now that it has finally been confirmed, they are all very excited, especially the two photographers, who have been carrying their cameras and have not stopped shooting.

Lu Ao was the calmest one among them. He held down the people around him to prevent them from disturbing him.

A group of people watched here for more than ten minutes, and when they were about to float up, Lu Ao collected relevant samples around and led them up slowly.

As soon as he floated to the surface, Lao Luo couldn't wait to report to Zhou Mingyi, "Professor Zhou, it's really a manatee. We collected relevant video data today."

"Oh? Come on, where is the video? Bring it here and let me have a look."

UG's underwater photographer swam to the side of the boat and handed over the camera.

Others quickly pulled them aboard.

Lu Ao was also pulled onto their boat, and as soon as they boarded the boat, someone handed them a large clean bath towel.

Xiao Du couldn't hide his excitement, "Brother Xiaolu, you are too powerful, the underwater situation is so complicated, how did you find out that there are manatees in the dugong herd?"

"See their tails clearly."

"Cattle!"

The old horse from the Fisheries Bureau also came over, "Mr. Lu, thank you, we have confirmed that there are manatees in the bottom, we will report this situation later, and experts will come over in two days. Thank you for going out to protect the ocean." power."

"You're welcome. I'm also doing my duty."

"Hahahaha, if only everyone could think like you."

The old horse came over and just greeted Lu Ao for a while.

Lu Ao didn't have much to say in front of outsiders. Lao Ma had an awkward chat with someone for a while, and made sure to fully express their gratitude on behalf of the Fisheries Bureau before bringing the process to an end.

Zhou Mingyi had already seen the video while they were talking, and he was a little disappointed watching the video. He originally thought that a new species would be discovered today, but he did not expect that the manatee was an ordinary oceanic manatee.

He quickly stabilized his mind, and it was good to discover manatees, although it was not as impressive as discovering a new species.

The old horse went over to talk to Zhou Mingyi, "Professor Zhou, what kind of manatee is this? Can you analyze why the herd of manatees and dugongs appear here?"

"This is not very clear yet, but as far as I know, there is a dugong reserve in the southeastern province next door. I wonder if this group of dugongs migrated from them?"

Old Luo said: "It's hard to say. Although the neighboring province says there is a protected area, but it has been more than ten years, and no one has really seen the true face of dugongs. Now they all doubt whether there are dugongs there."

"When the time comes, you'll know by doing a genetic test." Zhou Mingyi said, "I'm not an expert in this field, and I don't know much about it. I'm afraid I have to ask your experts for help."

Seeing his modesty, the old horse greeted him politely for a while, then went back to the boat of the Fisheries Bureau and called the bureau to report that they found manatees and dugongs here.

The higher authorities attached great importance to this matter and said that they would immediately organize experts to check it out.

After reporting the matter, they went to the sea to have a look again.

This time it was Lu Ao who led the team.

The manatees and dugongs are no longer where they were just now.

Lu Ao still accurately found their tracks.

During this dive, in addition to observing these two types of marine life, they also collected samples. Lu Ao is now employed by UG Company, and all the samples he collected were handed over to UG Company.

UG hired him originally to ask him to help find the Kelp Sea, lead a team to dive and collect samples.

He completed all three tasks very well, and basically completed all the tasks in two days.

It was an unexpected joy for them to find manatees and dugongs this time.

After Zhou Mingyi and Lao Luo reported to the company, their company researched and decided to let them return early with samples.

People from the Fisheries Bureau have taken over this sea area, and they are not allowed to stay here in principle.

So at noon on the third day, Lu Ao and the people from UG company set off to return.

They went back faster than when they came, and they arrived in Qianyong City after six o'clock in the afternoon.

Lu Ao originally wanted to sail directly back to the town, but Zhou Mingyi asked him to follow him to Qianyong City to have a handover with the company.

Lu Ao's total salary for taking this job is [-].

This price bought him for a week, even if the project has been completed, in a way, he is still within the validity period of the contract, and the other party asked him to go over to hand over, and he has no objection.

What Lu Ao didn't expect was that when they got off the boat, a large group of reporters surrounded him, all of them holding microphones to his mouth, demanding to interview them about the deeds of dugongs and manatees.

Lu Ao's appearance is very good, the kind that stands out from the crowd, and he has only been on the hot search not long ago, and his face is recognizable. Soon the reporters locked his identity, and they were very excited when they asked questions:

"Mr. Lu, it's been rumored on the Internet that you are very lucky, and you are the god of luck in the sea. Did you find out that dugongs and manatees are also lucky?"

"Mr. Lu, can you introduce Dugong to us?"

"Mr. Lu, what is your UG company's project this time, is it related to manatees?"

Zhou Mingyi and Lao Luo stood beside him, one on the left and one on the right, and interjected:

"Our company's original project was related to manatee rations."

"Yes, our company pays special attention to environmental protection work."

"We also heard about Xiao Lu's reputation, and specially invited him to work in the company. We didn't expect his excellence to be far beyond our expectations."

"Luck must have a certain element of luck, but this kind of thing depends more on strength."

Both of them were all smiles.

Lu Ao couldn't interrupt even if he wanted to.

Lu Ao wanted to take over the conversation several times, but soon found that the reporters didn't really care what he wanted to say, they just perfunctory him a few words, and then threw the topic back to Zhou Mingyi and Lao Luo.

After listening for a while, Lu Ao understood that this group of reporters was found by UG Company, and their main purpose of coming to interview was to speak for UG Company.

After listening for a while, when a male reporter asked him, Lu Ao suddenly reached out to answer the microphone.

The male reporter didn't expect him to hold the microphone, so he froze for a moment, and when he tried to use his strength again, he found that he couldn't match Lu Ao's strength at all.

Lu Ao seemed to take the microphone easily.

He glanced at the reporters around him and said, "Thank you for your attention. I have only a short-term cooperative relationship with UG. According to the contract, this project has been completed and our cooperation has been terminated. Please don't associate me with the company. tied together."

Zhou Mingyi and Lao Luo's expressions changed slightly immediately, they didn't expect him to be so direct and shameless.

This is too sharp to say.

After Lu Ao finished speaking, he did not accept any more interviews.

He thanked everyone present and left.

The reporters at the scene and the people from the UG company didn't know how he did it. He just pushed and squeezed out of the crowd.

He is tall and has long legs, and most people can't catch up with him.

Zhou Mingyi and Lao Luo didn't know what to say, and they had to forcefully maintain a smile on their faces.

Soon, they finished the interview.

After the interview, Lao Luo called Lu Ao and accused him, "Brother Lu, you are too shameless, aren't you?"

Lu Ao said: "It's you who think carefully first."

"That's hard to say. It's a great thing to have discovered manatees and dugongs. Maybe we will have opportunities to cooperate in the future."

"Let's talk about it later."

Lu Ao said lightly: "You all think that I am lucky, but in fact I am very lucky. People who plot against me are usually unlucky, so be careful."

Lao Luo: "???"

Lao Luo half joked: "Hey, no, are you threatening?"

"No, it's just a reminder. I have something to do here, so hang up first."
