Lu Ao has been quite busy recently, and he really forgot about Lin Dawu. After Lin Manzhang mentioned it, he remembered that he could ask this old fisherman.

After thanking Lin Manzhang, Lu Ao and Song Zhou went home, it was getting late, he did not go to bed after washing, but turned on the computer to check the information.

Chongxin Village is relatively remote, and there are relatively few written materials. Lu Ao searched for most of the day, but did not find any specific content.

Songzhou saw that he hadn't planned to sleep until 11:30, so he pinched the back of his neck and pushed him to bed.

Lu Ao's protest was ineffective, so he had to wait until the daytime to find someone to ask.

After getting up and having breakfast the next day, he received a call from Weng Qian before he could leave.

As soon as Lu Ao picked it up, Weng Qian asked over there, "Lu Ao, I heard what kind of ocean ranch you want to build recently?"

Lu Ao listened to his voice rise, and he spoke with a smile, and sat on the chair and asked lazily, "You are well informed, and I have just started to make plans. How do you know?"

"Hey, I have my news channel." Weng Qian asked, "How is your marine ranch doing? What are you going to raise? Is there any money?"

"I haven't decided what to raise, maybe I can raise some lobsters, abalones, sea cucumbers, etc." Lu Ao turned on the speaker and put the phone aside, "There is no shortage of money, why, do you want to invest?"

"If you want, I will definitely vote. Millions or tens of millions are fine, I believe you."

Lu Ao didn't take it seriously, and asked, "Stop chatting, what are you looking for today?"

"No nonsense, I really want to invest in you. If you don't need my investment, we can also cooperate when seafood is produced in the future. Our hotel has now developed a fresh food service, the kind of offline food delivery, Your seafood can be sent to us for sale."

Only then did Lu Ao realize that Weng Qian had picked peaches ahead of schedule.

He was not angry, and asked Weng Qian, "So trust me?"

"Of course, we have been good friends for such a long time, who do you trust if you don't trust?" Weng Qian said, "Seriously, I think if you really make it, this cooperation has great potential. You produce products, and I produce channels. , none of us will suffer.”

"Well, let's talk about it after it's done. If we need a channel, I will find you as soon as possible."

"Then when your marine ranch is built, let's see if we can sign a supply contract? Don't worry, no matter whether it's a purchase or a share of accounts, I will definitely not let you suffer."

"It's too early to talk about it now, we'll talk about it when it's done."

"Alright, then do you need to invest? I checked, and your marine ranch is expensive, right? I have millions of spare money here. If you want it, I can invest it first."

"Not for now." Lu Ao said casually, "Songzhou is rich."

"Tsk, this dog food—" Weng Qian said, "Then I will wait for your news."

"no problem."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Ao simply made a record of the matter.

He doesn't know what the situation is like when his ocean ranch is built. The initial output of the ocean ranch is not high. Instead of finding a fishmonger or selling it by himself, it is better to cooperate with Weng Qian and go through his channel.

It's too early to say these things now, and we'll have to wait until there's really something to be said.

Lu Ao drove to the town, and Lin Dawu was still guarding his small grocery store. When he saw Lu Ao's car, he poked his head out of the grocery store, "Lu Ao is here?"

"Brother Wu." Lu Ao lowered the car window, "I'll stop the car first."

"Just stop at the opposite side. I received a pack of tangerine tea from an old friend two days ago. I'm going to make tea. You can try it."

Seeing that Lin Dawu's figure disappeared quickly, Lu Ao showed a little smile on his face.

When he parked the car and entered the grocery store, Lin Dawu had already made tea and was waiting.

Gui Yandan was also there, and enthusiastically asked him to sit down, "Xiao'ao hasn't been here for a long time, what have you been up to lately?"

"Recently, I want to open a marine ranch. I haven't chosen the address yet. Come here and ask my sister-in-law and Brother Dawu for advice."

Gui Yandan didn't know, so he looked at him and then at Lin Dawu, and asked, "Sea, what is the sea?"

"Ocean ranch—" Lin Dawu took over the conversation, "just like those ranches on the ground that raise cattle and sheep."

Gui Yandan was not convinced, "You know again?"

"Of course I know." Lin Dawu shook his head, "My son told us, you forgot."

When Gui Yandan heard that it was his son who said it, he stopped arguing and asked with a smile: "Then what are you raising in the sea? Raising ducks and geese?"

Lu Ao said: "Maybe we can raise some sea cucumbers, abalones, and lobsters. I'm not sure yet. I have to determine the sea area first to see what kind of sea area is suitable for raising? I'm not very familiar with the sea area here, so I have to ask Brother Dawu to give me some advice." some advice."

Lin Dawu understood the purpose of his visit this time, poured him a cup of tea, and pondered: "I think the things you raise are mainly in relatively shallow sea areas, and it is best to have rocky areas underneath."

"Yes, at that time, I have to place some artificial reefs, and then plant some coral, seaweed, seaweed and so on. It will definitely not work in places that are too deep." Lu Ao said, "It would be best if it can be connected to the island, and it will be convenient for construction at that time Ground facilities are not so safe to put on a ship.”

They encounter countless typhoons every year. If the high-tech equipment is placed on the ship, all of them must be transferred to the shore as soon as the typhoon comes. Otherwise, everything will be lost once the typhoon blows.

Lin Dawu tapped his fingers on his knees, thinking.

Lu Ao didn't rush him, but let him think quietly.

After thinking for a while, Lin Dawu said: "I know a few places near the sea island, but I don't know how the underwater situation is. We seldom went into the water when we were fishing. If you are interested, I will bring You go and have a look."

"Okay, sorry to bother you."

"We won't talk about this. Are you free now? If you are free, we can go and have a look now."

"Now?" Lu Ao paused while drinking tea, "Don't you still want to visit the store?"

Gui Yandan answered the words readily at the side: "You are busy with your work, I can just watch the store by myself."

Lin Dawu also said: "It's better to hit the sun than to choose a day. It just so happens that the weather is fine today, so I'll run with you."

Lu Ao's boat was parked at the pier in the town, filled with fuel, and ready to go at any time.

Hearing this, he didn't worry too much, and immediately said: "Then let's drive to the pier, my boat can be used now."

"Okay, is your equipment on the boat? If so, it's time to change the equipment and dive underwater to see what's going on."

"Yes, no problem."

Lin Dawu often sailed in the wind and waves in his early years, and he was very envious of Lu Ao's big boat. He didn't have a driving license for the big boat, so it was difficult to get started, so he just watched Lu Ao sailing from the side.

"Your boat is really good. It is worthwhile to earn such a boat in a lifetime."

Lu Ao smiled.

The location of the island is all in Lin Dawu's mind.

After more than half an hour, they arrived at the first location.

Lin Dawu pointed to the deserted island the size of a basketball court in front of him, and said, "This island is called Haixin Island. We used to come here to quarry stones and cauliflowers."

Lu Ao dared not drive the boat too close for fear of running aground.

With a distance of tens of meters, he stopped the boat, untied the small boat at the stern and took Lin Dawu ashore.

Before reaching the shore, he felt that the island might not be suitable. The water here is too shallow. The island extends seven or eight meters, and it is a shallow water area of ​​less than two meters.

He didn't even need to change his equipment. He just dived down with his bare hands and saw that there was sand all around, no fish, and the sea water was rather turbid. It must not be used to build a marine ranch here.

He inspected around and went to the second location with Lin Dawu.

The condition of the second site is not good either. The water is too deep, and the current is a little fast. There is an undercurrent at the bottom. The water is very turbid, so it is not suitable here.

Then they went to the third location, the fourth location, the fifth location... They visited thirteen locations in a row, and they didn't return to the town until night fell.

None of the ten locations were suitable, not even barely suitable.

Lu Ao didn't expect to be stumped at the first step, feeling a little frustrated.

Lin Dawu didn't expect that the requirements for building a marine ranch would be so high. He took Lu Ao to several locations. I dare not say anything else, but it was enough to put fish rafts and raise fish.

Lu Ao was dissatisfied with these places, and for a while, he couldn't think of any place that could better meet Lu Ao's requirements.

After getting off the boat, he comforted Lu Ao, "Today is only the first day, so it's not surprising that you can't find it. People also say that it takes a long time to find it. If you want to find it in a few days, you can find it. I will ask some old friends for you tonight. You may be more familiar with sea activities than me."

Lu Ao nodded, "Brother Wu, please, I'll ask again."

"No trouble, what's the trouble with this? But we have walked around all the suitable places nearby, if we can't find it again, we may have to go to a place farther away."

In fact, Lu Ao doesn't really want to go too far away. If he goes too far away and can't come back within a day by boat, it will be a bit boring.

Not even teleportation.

Seeing that he was not in high spirits, Lin Dawu had a flash of inspiration for some reason.

"Speaking of which, what do you think of the sea outside Luwu Village, especially the mountain you surrounded?"

Lu Ao didn't follow his train of thought for a while, and turned to look at him.

The more Lin Dawu talked, the more he felt that it was feasible, and he gestured, "Look, there is a reef area outside your village, and the water next to it is also deep. Didn't you say that the water is deeper than the shallow water? We have swam there before. The water on the side is about 30 meters deep on average."

Lu Ao often fished there last year, and he knew the situation there very well. He recalled it for a while, then nodded, "Yes, the shallow place is seven or eight meters."

Lin Dawu became happy, "Look! There is still a mountain next to you. Didn't you say that you want an island to build ground facilities? If you open the marine ranch there, your facilities can be built directly on the mountain. It saves you the effort of contracting the island."

Lu Ao thought for a while, "The current over there is relatively fast."

"It's not in a hurry, it's just that the current is relatively fast in some places." Lin Dawu said, "When we went swimming there before, we saw a lot of seaweed, conch, sea fish, lobster and so on, and now the damage is serious. , there may not be so many, but at least it shows that they can grow there, if you wrap it up and trim it a little, it will be usable."

Lu Ao thought about it, "Then let me investigate."

"Okay, you can think about it for a few more days. I will also ask my friends here to see if there are any other places you can recommend. A little, except that the water flow is a little faster, it fully meets your requirements."

"Thank you, Big Brother."

"You're welcome." Lin Dawu relaxed his heart, and warmly invited, "Your sister-in-law should have already cooked the meal by now, why don't you come to my house for dinner?"

"No need. My family should have cooked food too. I'll go back and eat."

"Hahaha, this married man is different. Then you go back, be careful on the road, and drive slowly."

Lu Ao accompanied Lin Dawu back to the grocery store, and went in to say hello to Gui Yandan, and refused her to keep the meal several times before driving home.

Sure enough, Song Zhou was already at home.

Lu Ao opened the door and went in, shouting, "I'm back."

"In a good mood?" Song Zhou looked up at him with a smile from the book, "How is it? Did you get any results today?"

"Barely." Lu Ao bowed his head and kissed him, sat down next to him, took his teacup and drank several sips of water before saying, "We visited thirteen places today."

"Huh? Where did you fancy it?"

Lu Ao waved his hand and sighed, "I didn't like any of them. There was no place suitable for building a marine ranch in the place we went to see, but when we came back, Brother Dawu said that the sea opposite the mountain we covered is good, and it can be used to build Ocean Ranch."

Song Zhou put down the book, "Across from Haining Mountain?"

"Yes, it's there. When I came back, I thought about it and thought it was a good place. At least it's close to our village. If there is no other more suitable place, I can consider it."

Song Zhou thought for a while, and said, "It's really good there. It contains water and mountains, and it grows all things."

"I remember you also said before that Haining Mountain has the best conditions. In the next two days, I will ask various people to look for it. If I can't find a better place, I will decide on it."

"Well. Go wash your hands and eat."

Lu Ao stood up, "Let's go now, where is Fat Dun?"

Song Zhou said casually while setting the meal, "Go out to play with the geese."

Lu Ao muttered, "This guy is having fun."

Song Zhou laughed, "Could it be that you still expect it to do some work?"

Lu Ao said: "Let's talk about it after we really seal the sea opposite Haining Mountain. If we really seal the sea here, after it is sealed, Fatty will grow up, so send it to see the sea."

Song Zhou smiled and shook his head.

In the next few days, Lu Ao contacted friends from all walks of life and asked them to help him notice if there is any suitable place to build a marine ranch.

His group of boat boss friends and volunteer friends are the most familiar with these things, and they all added up and provided Lu Ao with no less than a hundred locations.

Lu Ao spent a week looking at them one by one, but he didn't like any of them.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that the sea outside Haining Mountain was perfect.

Song Zhou also agreed with the sea opposite Bao Haining Mountain.

Lu Ao thought about it, consulted experts, and finally decided to cover the sea outside Haining Mountain.

There are no marine ranches in their province.

Lu Ao didn't know how to apply for the land for building a marine ranch, so he called Xiao Du to ask.

When Xiao Du received the call, he was amazed, "I haven't seen you in just a few months, Brother Lu, you have made another big move."

"It's not a big move, I just want to make a small attempt. Do you know the relevant cases, what procedures should I follow if I want to build a marine ranch in the sea?"

"I don't know about this, but it's not under the control of our coast guard. You may go to the fishery department to ask." Xiao Du hesitated after speaking, "Brother Lu, do you really want to cover the sea?"

Lu Ao heard the unfinished meaning in his words, and asked, "Why?"

Xiao Du said, "Isn't this why we are strictly investigating marine violations recently? The boat that trawled corals that you reported a while ago has not been found yet. The case information has been sent to the Fisheries Bureau. The director of the Fisheries Bureau, Lao Hou, is very angry. Deployed a series of actions to join us to clean up illegal and criminal activities in the ocean, among which the fish raft remediation project is one of them, and I think your marine ranching project may be more difficult to pass."

Lu Ao was a bit mentally prepared, "This is a new type of marine ranch. I checked it out. The country is promoting it. It shouldn't be too difficult."

"Old Hou is stubborn. If he refuses to admit it, I'm afraid it won't be of much use."

"I'll try it first, and if it doesn't work, I'll find a way."

"Okay, if it doesn't work, just tell me, and I will find a way with you."

"Thanks."

After Lu Ao asked Xiao Du, he went to the Fisheries Bureau in person.

The fishery bureau in their county is not in charge, and this large-scale contracting of the sea has to be reported to the city.

The report went around, and finally it was put on the desktop of Hou Mingzhi, Qianyong City Fisheries Bureau.

Knowing that Xiaodu did not expect it, Hou really called back Lu Ao's report.

Lu Ao submitted it again, and this time he consulted Cao Zijun and added a lot of information, including the evaluation made by the scientific research institution that Huang Ningna connected.

It cost Lu Ao more than 2 yuan to do this assessment alone. Compared with Cao Zijun and the others who applied for the marine ranch at that time, Lu Ao had much more sufficient materials.

Lu Ao intends to apply as soon as possible this time.

At this time, the Chinese New Year is approaching. If the application submitted this time does not pass, you will have to wait until the Chinese New Year.

Lu Ao knows a lot of people.

He hadn't even thought about looking for a relationship, but a person in the auction group suddenly chatted with him in private: Brother Lu, what happened to your application for the construction of the marine ranch?

Lu Ao took a look at the person named "Mingyue Wantang" on WeChat, and replied: I just want to build a marine ranch, what's wrong?

Mingyue Wantang: I got the news that the people at the Fisheries Bureau said that Lao Hou refused to pass, and even said that your fancy things are essentially fish farming. He will not give you one day as long as he is the director. batch.The original words may not be like this, but this is roughly what it means.Did you offend him?

Lu Ao frowned.

After a pause, he typed: Probably not, thank you, I will think of a way

Mingyue Wantang: You're welcome, I just happened to hear about it.Little Brother Lu, if you have connections, let’s get some connections, otherwise this project may not be approved

Lu Ao: Hmm, I'll think about it again, please don't worry

When Song Zhou came out, he just saw him holding a mobile phone, frowned, and touched his cheek, "What are you thinking, so serious? How will you live this year, have you thought about it?"

"I haven't started thinking about it yet." Lu Ao turned over his phone and showed it to him. "Just now, a group of friends from the auction group came to report that the director of the Fisheries Bureau has said that our marine ranch construction project will not be approved."

Song Zhou saw that he had been busy with this job every day for half a month, and he had lost some weight. He sat next to him and asked, "Then what should we do now, or can I say hello for you?"

Lu Ao didn't know Songzhou's level, but he knew that the anomalous personnel management organization that he cooperated with humans had very high authority, and the leadership level he knew must not be low.

If he opened his mouth, it would be a very simple matter to deal with a small director of the Fisheries Bureau.

Lu Ao's heart fluttered for a moment. He has been running various things in the past half a month, and he is very tired of running.

If he doesn't take shortcuts, he may have to run for another half a month, and he may not be able to get it done in the end.

This heartbeat is only for a moment.

After that moment, Lu Ao came back rationally, put the phone back, and lay on his knees, "Forget it, didn't you say that we should not interfere too much with the operation of the human world as non-human beings? It doesn't matter if I run more. "

Non-human world Non-human beings themselves are part of this world, and they can naturally act in the world and do their own business, which is recognized by the Dao of Heaven.

However, it is not enough to use one's own non-human ability to wantonly influence human society.

The most serious thing is to use one's non-human ability to help a certain group or suppress a certain group.

As a dragon, Lu Ao now understands more and more what can be done and what cannot be done.

Even if no one specifically talked about it with him, he knew it secretly.

He didn't want Song Zhou to take risks.

Song Zhou was still worried, "It's just to allow human beings to accommodate and open a marine ranch, and the cost is minimal."

The main body of the marine ranch is mainly for marine life. It can be regarded as Lu Ao's own job, and Tiandao will recognize his work in a certain way.

It wouldn't be too much of a violation to let humans allow him to open a sea ranch if he used his abilities.

Lu Ao disagreed, "Forget it, even if we use other means to get the approval from the Fisheries Bureau, we will have more time to deal with them in the future, and I'm sure they will make trouble again, I'll fight for it through formal means. "

Now that Song Zhou didn't have a look of reluctance on his face, he stopped persuading him.

Lu Ao changed his strategy the next day. Instead of handing over the materials, he went directly to the director of the Municipal Fisheries Bureau to block Hou.

He originally thought that this process would be difficult, but he didn't expect that Director Hou would meet him immediately as soon as he registered in the city.

Lu Ao was very surprised. When he was invited to Director Hou's office, he still couldn't recover.

Hou Mingzhi looks like an old man in his 60s or [-]s, with white hair, wrinkles around his eyes, and a little fat.

He was wearing an ordinary windbreaker and slacks, just like an ordinary old man he saw in the park.

Seeing Lu Ao coming in, Hou Mingzhi nodded, "Sit down, tea or plain water?"

"Plain water is fine."

Lu Ao stood up and wanted to help, Hou Mingzhi waved his hand, took out a cup from the disinfection cabinet, picked up the thermos pot next to him and poured him a glass of water, and asked, "Come to the city last night or this morning?"

"Come here this morning?"

"From the village?"

Lu Ao nodded, "Yes."

Hou Mingzhi nodded and said, "That's really not easy."

Lu Ao didn't expect him to be so kind, so he relaxed a little, "Fortunately, it's not too tired."

"That's tiring too. Drink some water first." Hou Mingzhi cut to the chase, "I saw the application you submitted."

After Lu Ao thanked him, he listened carefully.

Hou Mingzhi continued: "I disagree."

Lu Ao was surprised. Just as he was about to say something, Hou Mingzhi raised his hand and pressed it down, signaling him to be calm and calm.

"You don't work in our big system, but you have a great reputation. I've heard about the things you did, such as finding boxes containing secrets for us, fighting poachers, and helping salvage and hand over antiques, etc. "Hou Mingzhi said to him, "Young people can be so unobtrusive about fame and wealth, it is very remarkable."

Lu Ao hurriedly said modestly, "You are absurd."

"Don't be too modest. Let's talk about the ocean ranch. I know you are a good guy. I don't criticize or deliberately target you."

Lu Ao was not angry, "Why did you make this decision? May I know the reason?"

Hou Mingzhi spread his hands, "Now the conditions for us to build a marine ranch are too immature, and the scope of your application is too large, a sea area of ​​7000 to [-] square meters. To be honest, I admire your courage."

Lu Ao said: "Marine ranching is different from fish raft farming. It needs more space for fish to move around, and it also needs more space to install related facilities."

"That is to say, but such a large area has too much impact on the surrounding sea area."

Lu Ao pondered for a while, and said, "As far as I know, many marine ranches abroad are larger than the range I applied for. The construction of marine ranches in our country has fallen behind. I think it is better to catch up now rather than avoid it."

"A right thing needs to be caught up, and a wrong thing is just the opposite. We should avoid going further and further wrong."

"I don't agree with this statement. Marine ranching is the main direction of fishery exploration. Our country's fishery resources are so depleted that we can't always rely on marine fishing. Marine ranching is the only way for my country's fishery transformation."

Hou Mingzhi raised his head, "There may be some truth in this statement, but as a private organization, how can you prove that you are on the right path?"

Lu Ao was taken aback.

Hou Mingzhi raised his hand and made a stop gesture, "We all know that the construction of marine ranches is facing many problems. The first one is that there is no basic theoretical support for the macro layout. Let me ask you, how do you evaluate the production capacity of offshore organisms? and ecological carrying capacity? How do you know that your marine ranch won’t be fatal to nearby ecosystems?”

Lu Ao opened his mouth.

Hou Mingzhi interrupted him and continued, "At present, marine ranching has no available theory at all. You don't know the coupling mechanism between facilities, organisms, and the environment, and you lack theoretical support for the interaction between organisms and the construction of functional groups. There is no way to achieve high-quality and comprehensive management. Now due to global climate change and the impact of human activities, ecological disasters in the ocean have occurred from time to time, and with your marine ranch, the ecology may become even worse and more fragile.”

Hou Ming knew that a series of questions were thrown out, and Lu Ao was almost at a loss.

Hou Mingzhi is too professional, not the kind of leader Lu Ao imagined at all, but like a professor in a university waiting for students to reply.

However, Lu Ao himself was not a person with a relevant professional background, so he couldn't write a small paper on the spot.

Lu Ao calmed down and said sincerely: "What you said makes sense. But it is precisely because many problems are still unclear that we need to experiment, study, and summarize."

Hou Mingzhi took a sip of tea, "I agree with this statement to a certain extent. Professional problems should be left to professionals to solve, and the technology will not be introduced to the public until the technology has developed to a certain stage."

Lu Ao took a deep breath, "No, I don't think it is necessary to rely entirely on academics in this field. This view is unfair. You are obliterating the possibility of our fair competition. Besides, if we wait for national funds to study these issues , our technology will never be able to make real strides forward."

Hou Mingzhi didn't speak.

Lu Ao said: "The country's laws, regulations and policies all support the construction of marine ranches. It is completely unreasonable for you to reject my application. As far as I know, the problem you raised is not only a problem that I cannot solve, but it is also a problem in China and even the world. No sea ranch can answer these questions you asked."

Hou Mingzhi asked: "Are the above policies necessarily correct, and foreign policies must work?"

Lu Ao raised his head and said bluntly, "It's something you have to consider in order to seek political success in his position."

Hou Mingzhi shook his head, "This is the result of my consideration. I do not agree with your construction of this marine ranch, nor do I agree with the construction of marine ranches in other sea areas of the Qianming Sea."

Lu Ao narrowed his eyes, "I think the idea of ​​building a marine ranch is correct, and I won't give up."

"Oh?" Hou Mingzhi asked, "So confident?"

Lu Ao gently put the teacup in his hand back on the table, and said, "I'll visit again in a few days."
