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

Lu Ao basically didn't use Songzhou's money, so much so that he had forgotten that Songzhou was much richer than his dragon, and the wealth of the human world alone was tens of billions.

Facing Shang Songzhou's suspicious gaze, Lu Ao blinked, stretched out his hand and wrapped his arms around his neck, "Of course I remember, how could I not remember this?"

Song Zhou didn't quite believe it, but he could only kiss his smiling eyes.

Huang Ningna's friends soon received affirmative news that they were willing to accept Lu Ao to visit, and they didn't need to bring anything or go through any special procedures, just visiting as friends.

Lu Ao happily went.

This time he went out alone.

Song Zhou originally wanted to teleport him there, but Lu Ao refused.

There is no traffic record, it is always a little strange when dealing with people, and it is easy to be suspicious. He occasionally wants to follow the rules of human society.

The day Lu Ao set off was January [-]th, and it was still cold. He had to drive to the county in the morning, leave the car in the parking lot of the county, and then drive from the county to Xinluzhou, and then take the plane Go to Shannan Province.

This process takes a day.

At around five o'clock in the afternoon, Lu Ao finally found a hotel to stay in the capital of Shannan Province.

He called Songzhou to report safety, and then contacted Huang Ningna's friend, agreeing to go there the next morning.

Huang Ningna's friend was called Cao Zijun, and he was very enthusiastic. He drove to the provincial capital to pick him up the next day.

Lu Ao got into his car after breakfast at eight o'clock in the morning.

Seeing Lu Ao sleepy in the passenger seat, Cao Zijun asked, "Brother, is it easy to come all the way?"

"It's okay, please accept it."

"What's the trouble with this? Professor Huang's friend is my friend, and Ocean Ranch has invested a lot. Why did you suddenly think of doing this?"

Lu Ao pondered for a while and said: "I didn't do this before, and I went back to the countryside to fish last year. I earned a lot of money a year and had some spare money in my hands. It's not an option to keep fishing. There are fewer and fewer fish in the sea. The fishery tax is also high, so I wondered if I should set up a marine ranch and raise some fish myself."

Their farming industry pays less taxes and subsidies.For example, when selling fish for takeaway, a catty of fish sells for 12 yuan, of which 11 yuan belongs to them, and another [-] cents can be subsidized by them.

If you fish, the tax is much higher.

When Cao Zijun heard his words, he could understand his ambition, but he was not optimistic.

He glanced at Lu Ao and said, "It's not that simple to be a marine ranch. The investment in it is huge, but the output is not certain. If it's private, nine and a half out of ten will lose money."

Lu Ao smiled, "I know, thank you Brother Cao for reminding me."

"I think if you are really interested in farming, why don't you apply for a piece of sea, get some fish steaks, raise scallops and sea cucumbers, etc. You can earn more and worry less."

"I'll take a look first. If it works, I'll go back and get it. If it doesn't work, I'll do what you said and get some fish rafts to see what to raise." Lu Ao said, "I'm still so young, so I can try many things."

"Hey, that's exactly what I said."

Cao Zijun chatted with Lu Ao all the way in his broken car.

After hearing it from beginning to end, Lu Ao had a preliminary idea about the ocean ranch.

At around [-]:[-] noon, they finally arrived at the shore base of Cao Zijun Ocean Ranch.

After parking the car, Cao Zijun introduced: "My marine ranch is relatively large, and it can be regarded as an ocean deep-water ranch. In this marine ranch, including various investments, we have invested a total of more than 6000 million in it."

Lu Ao nodded. He checked the information before, and the amount didn't scare him.

Seeing his calm expression, Cao Zijun continued, "Don't look at the fact that we have already invested so much money. In fact, so much money is just a preliminary construction, and it is still far away from the finished product."

What they were talking about had already reached the corridor, Cao Zijun pointed to the poster hanging on the shore, "Look at our idea."

Lu Ao looked in the direction of his finger.

Posters on the wall detailing a schematic diagram of a marine ranch with satellite remote sensing monitoring system, aircraft remote sensing monitoring system, environmental monitoring system, pasture care system, seedling production system, radar monitoring system, seaweed farm, behavioral acclimatization farm, artificial fish Reefs, rearing facilities, etc.

The combination of these dense words made Lu Ao feel very strange.

It was the first time he had seen many concepts here, and he couldn't even guess what these things were.

For the first time since he came here, a blank look appeared on his face.

Cao Zijun looked at him quietly, and Lu Ao quickly adjusted, and asked, "Has these facilities been built in Ocean Ranch?"

"It's a good idea." Cao Zijun smiled wryly, "Let's not say it's completed, and now even a quarter of the facilities have not been built. We have roughly completed the pasture care system, seedling production system, seaweed farm, and artificial fish reef. In the five aspects of cultivation and breeding facilities, others have been built one after another according to the needs."

"Then what are the main breeds in this ranch?"

"Sea cucumbers, scallops, and a little abalone. Some seaweed and kelp are planted in the pasture as their feed." Cao Zijun said, "You were introduced by Professor Huang, and you are considered one of your own. It has been more than seven years since the marine ranch was built, the first three years were all experimental, and it will only be put into operation for four years."

Lu Ao nodded, "How about the operation in the past four years?"

"Not good." Cao Zijun took a deep breath, "There were two years when the situation was better and basically realized profitability. I don't know what happened the year before last. First, the scallops were infected and died on a large scale, and later it spread to sea cucumbers. The whole marine ranch was almost closed. Not closed down, we cleaned up the ocean thoroughly, carefully sanitized it before continuing to use it.”

Lu Ao turned to look at him in surprise.

Cao Zijun waved his hand, "Marine farming is like this, because the species are relatively single and the density is relatively high. When they gather together, they often infect each other with diseases and insect pests."

Lu Ao thought for a while, "Usually in the wild, you can often see a certain population gathering together on a large scale?"

"How can it be the same? In the natural environment, they fend for themselves. As long as there is no particularly serious large-scale pest damage, no one will pay special attention to a certain group of fish. Farming is different, but if there is a little negligence, they will die all year round. To lose everything."

Cao Zijun looked at him and said, "Brother, I don't coax you, and I'm not afraid of you joining this industry to compete. It's really difficult to do this industry, the technology is immature, the procedures are complicated, and the requirements for individuals are high. Be careful that you will lose your pants, if there is another way out, even if you hire a fishing raft to raise fish, it is better than throwing yourself into a marine ranch."

Lu Ao said sincerely: "Thank you Brother Cao, I will seriously consider it."

"I know you won't listen to what I say now, but I still want to persuade you, do you know about salmon farming?"

Lu Ao nodded.

As one of the most commonly used sea fish in the sushi industry, salmon is well-known, and wild ones cannot be supplied, and farmed ones are basically used.

Cao Zijun said: "Five years ago, in the salmon farms of country N, because of infection with viruses and parasites, a large number of salmon were covered with parasites and ulcers, and even grew into S-shaped deformed fish due to the infection. You go online Do a search, the news is still there."

This was the first time Lu Ao had heard of this.

He searched the Internet, and sure enough, he found relevant reports.

After watching it for a while, Lu Ao turned off his mobile phone and said, "There are so many chaos in the farming industry, I want to get involved in it and do a good job of farming so that everyone can eat safe fish."

Seeing that he listened, Cao Zijun glanced at him and continued, "If you really want to do it, then I will tell you the necessary procedures."

"First of all, you need to apply for the right to use the sea area. It is relatively difficult to apply for the right to use the sea area in our country."

Lu Ao said: "I often deal with the coast guard and fishery administration, this should not be particularly difficult for me."

"This is just the first step. After you apply for the right to use the sea area, you need to cooperate with relevant scientific research units to obtain technical support. You know, marine ranching is a big project, and you need marine life, marine antiseptic, and environmental information. monitoring and other support.”

Lu Ao calculated his contacts, "This is no problem, I basically know experts in related fields."

Cao Zijun took a deep look at him, "If you have no problem with these two aspects, then there is only one problem left - money. You see, we burned tens of millions, and only a preliminary result has been burned. You have to calculate your own Whether the family background is strong enough and whether it can continue to burn money."

This is the best.

Lu Ao also discussed with Songzhou the day before yesterday, and Songzhou Bank has more than 20 billion cash that can be withdrawn in a short time.

This money is enough for him to burn.

Lu Ao couldn't tell Cao Zijun directly, so he smiled at him.

Cao Zijun also saw that he was very confident in his economic strength, and he had persuaded everything that should be persuaded, and Cao Zijun didn't repeat himself, "Then let's go to the Ocean Ranch first, and we also have workers stationed there, so we can eat there then?"

"No problem, trouble brother Cao."

"You're welcome, come on, let's get on the speedboat first."

Cao Zijun took Lu Ao on the speedboat, drove out to sea for an hour and a half, and finally saw an island.

"This island is also ours." Cao Zijun showed a proud look on his face, "Next to the island is our ocean ranch."

Lu Ao was surprised, "Now individuals can apply for an island?"

"Yes, the "Island Law" was passed more than ten years ago. As long as you have all the materials, you can apply in the past. The service life of our island application is the longest 50 years. When it expires, after expert evaluation, we will You can continue to apply."

Lu Ao probed to see the island. The island was lush and green, with some coconut trees and flowers planted. It could be seen that the owner of the island had taken good care of it.

Cao Zijun said: "Don't look at this island, it doesn't look big, but it's more than 300 meters long and 70 meters wide. We don't have money now. If we have money, we can clean it up. It will be very popular as a vacation island."

Lu Ao asked: "Can the island be used for such a purpose?"

"Of course. The supporting facilities. Our marine ranch was originally registered as a comprehensive marine ranch when it was applied for. It integrates vacation, sightseeing, fishing, breeding, breeding, and release. You may not be able to see the facilities on the sea, but in fact We have also built an undersea tunnel under the sea, and we will show you to see it later.”

Looking around, Lu Ao saw that there were not many installations on the surface of the sea, but some circular deep-water culture cages and rows of bamboo poles. Other installations should be on the bottom of the sea, and you need to dive into the water to see them.

Cao Zijun had been pouring cold water on him on the way here, but now Lu Ao was even more moved by seeing this scene.

If he is allowed to do it, he can build the ocean ranch better.
