Lu Ao had already guessed that he came here for other purposes, and he was not surprised to hear that he wanted to exchange coconut crab seedlings for goose seedlings.
"Are you sure?" Lu Ao asked him, "Coconut crab is not cheap, but my lion's head goose is also very expensive. How do you want to change it?"
"This is indeed a question, how about one coconut crab seedling for ten goose seedlings?" Feng Jinhao said proudly, "I'm not boasting, my coconut crab seedlings are very precious and have won awards, you get ten goose seedlings It’s not a disadvantage to exchange for my coconut crab seedlings.”
"Not so good." Lu Ao said bluntly, "My lion head goose seedlings are also very precious. If they are sold to the outside world, in terms of price alone, my goose seedlings may not be cheaper than your crab seedlings. Some people want to buy coconut crabs Even if you don’t buy crab seedlings from you, you can always find other ways. If you want to buy my goose seedlings, if you don’t buy them from me, you can’t find other ways. The scarcity of the two is completely incomparable.”
Feng Jinhao originally thought that the business would go very smoothly this time, but he didn't expect him to say that, he was taken aback for a moment, "Then how do you plan to change it, you can talk about it first, we discuss it, it doesn't necessarily mean that I will do whatever I say. .”
Lu Ao thought for a while, "How about this, you bring a pair of good coconut crab breed crabs, and I'll give you a pair of good lion head goose breed geese, and we will exchange them one by one."
"This way?" Feng Jinhao hesitated, "I'm afraid it won't work. Adult coconut crabs weigh two to three kilograms. This deal is not fair."
"My lion head goose weighs thirty to forty catties as an adult, several times bigger than your coconut crab."
"That's what I said, but we also need to look at market benefits. A coconut crab with seeds can give birth to tens of thousands of young coconut crabs, and a mother goose can lay more than 300 fertilized eggs at most in a year. Just hypothetical, in reality it doesn't have that many fertilized eggs a year."
Lu Ao was not in a hurry when he heard his implicit rejection, "If you look at the market benefits, the people from the Agricultural Research Institute wanted to buy my lion-headed goose, and the price of one was [-] to [-], and the current market price is even higher. It has reached [-] to [-], and I can sell it anytime I want, although your coconut crab is precious, it is not rare."
Lu Ao's meaning is obvious, his coconut crab seedlings are not worth such a price.
Feng Jinhao shook his head, disagreed, and kept saying, "No, how can there be such a business?"
Lu Ao was not in a hurry after hearing this, and said to him: "You go back and think about it first? When you think about it, we will continue to discuss this business."
Feng Jinhao was a little embarrassed, but still insisted on refusing, "If the conditions you said are followed, this business will definitely not be negotiated. Your bid is so low, how can you change it?"
Huang Ningna was at the side, and it was not easy to intervene when they were discussing business. Hearing this, he tactfully persuaded, "Well, Lao Feng, Lu Ao's lion-headed goose is indeed very popular, and he didn't lie."
"My coconut crab is not bad. If I agree to this change, my wife will scold me to death after I go back. It won't work."
Lu Ao regretted his rejection, but he didn't say anything.
After leaving them for lunch, Lu Ao packed the remaining half of the lion's head goose and put it in an ice pack and brought it back to Feng Jinhao. He brought coconut crabs over in the morning, and the ten catties of lion's head goose meat was considered a gift in return. .
Feng Jinhao said he wanted to go back and think about it, so Lu Ao asked him to think about it.
More than a week has passed, and he hasn't heard back. Lu Ao knows that this matter is probably gone.
Huang Ningna also guessed it, and even called Lu Ao to apologize.
"I'm sorry, Lu Ao, I wasted your time. I thought your business meeting would be very pleasant."
"It's nothing, I have to thank you for thinking of us when you have anything to do. I will treat you to eat lion head and goose when you come next time."
"Okay, I will go there often if you say that. If there is anything you need to help, just tell me in time. I am free recently. It is completely fine to take a day and a half to come out."
Lu Ao agreed, hung up the phone after exchanging greetings with him, and called Lao Xu from the fish fry farm.
Lao Xu answered the phone immediately, and smiled before saying anything, "I was just about to call you, it seems that we have a good understanding."
"Who is in love with you?" Lu Ao clicked his tongue, "What do you want from me?"
"That's right, isn't it the breeding season? I have pressed a batch of dragon grouper seedlings. Do you want them? The price is very cheap."
Lu Ao asked, "What specifications and what price?"
"Long grouper seedlings with a body length of about nine to thirteen centimeters cost six yuan each. I heard that you have bought grouper grouper seedlings before, how is it? Is this price particularly cheap, and it particularly excites your heart?"
Lu Ao didn't talk nonsense with him, and asked directly, "How many dragon grouper seedlings do you have in total?"
"It's not too many, there are more than 860 fish in total." Old Xu said, "They are all high-quality fry, very healthy and strong, even if they are raised in the wild, there is no problem."
"Five yuan a tail, I want it all."
Old Xu was distressed, "Five yuan is too little, you can go to the whole city, no - you can't find such a low price in the whole province, you can give more, to save face."
"Five yuan, I can't afford to pay more. You know the situation here. Long grouper seedlings are already dispensable."
Old Xu really knew the situation on his side, and he also knew that his saying that he couldn’t afford it was purely an excuse, “Oh, five yuan is really too low, why don’t you give it more, five yuan and five elements, I’ll give it to you personally Come to the door."
After thinking about it for a while, Lu Ao felt that the price probably touched Lao Xu's bottom line, and said, "Five yuan is also fine. When will you send the dragon group seedlings over?"
"I'm going to go to another place this afternoon, and it will be tomorrow afternoon at the earliest."
"Then tomorrow afternoon." Lu Ao said, "I still want to ask you something."
"What is it?" Old Xu's attitude became very positive, "Tell me first, and see if I can do it."
"I want a batch of coconut crab seedlings. I wonder if you can do it?"
"Coconut crab? That coconut crab that lives on land and looks like a spider?"
It was the first time Lu Ao heard someone describe coconut crabs like that. He paused for two seconds and said, "Yes, that's the crab that likes to eat coconuts."
"I seem to have heard of this, but I don't know if there are any resources to get it now. Wait a minute, and I will help you find out. Where will you raise the coconut crab seedlings after you get them back?"
"Just keep it on the mountain I contracted."
"I'm afraid this can't be done? Don't coconut crabs like warm places? We warm up here, and it's still cold in winter." Old Xu said quickly, "If this is the case, don't blame me if you die."
"I don't blame you. I've read the papers, and it's okay for us to raise them here. The big deal is to help them overwinter artificially in winter."
"That's it, that's fine, I'll help you find out first, as long as you know what's in your mind."
Lao Xu called and sent WeChat to friends from all walks of life that afternoon, and went everywhere to help Lu Ao find out about coconut crab and crab seedlings.
It is still spring, when the breeding industry is at its peak. He found out through various channels that a farmer he was not familiar with had a batch of coconut crab seedlings.
After a preliminary discussion with the farmer, Lao Xu replied to Lu Ao, "The coconut crab in the farmer's hand is only three centimeters long, and one costs 30 yuan. Do you want it?"
"Choose 30 yuan at will? How much does he have?"
"It doesn't seem to be many, just a few hundred or thousands? I remember that the mountain you built is not big, so you don't need many crab seedlings."
"Yes, it's not big." Lu Ao said, "Please contact me. If there are 31, I want [-]."
"Okay, it's 9000 yuan for crab seedlings." Old Xu asked, "Are you going to find the farmer yourself, or should I go and bring the crab seedlings back for you?"
"You can bring it back for me, I can trust your vision."
Lu Ao is considered a big client of Lao Xu, and Lao Xu has always devoted himself to protecting him as a client.
That night, Lao Xu drove to the farmer overnight and bought 310 crab seedlings, which cost a total of 9000 yuan.
The extra ten crab seedlings were given by the farmer, and Lao Xu brought them back to Lu Ao truthfully.
It was the first time that Lu Ao saw coconut crab seedlings, which were similar to other crab seedlings.
Old Xu declared again, "I tried my best to choose healthy ones for you, but you also know the climate here, and I can't guarantee whether they will be able to support you."
Lu Ao nodded, "I know this well, don't worry, I won't blame you."
"That's fine. Then let's talk about giant grouper fry. Five yuan and five for one, and 860 for two. Let's count 850 for you."
"no problem."
Lu Ao has always been quick to pay. After the two parties settled the amount, he used his mobile phone to send the money to Lao Xu.
After Lao Xu was sure that the bank had received the money, he smiled so hard that he couldn't see his teeth, "I just like your straightforwardness. I still have a batch of seabass fry over there, which have just been bred and haven't started selling yet. If you want it, I will Leave a few hundred tails for you too?"
Lu Ao almost forgot about the sea bass.
They have a lot of bass here, and last year he brought a special bass button out of the sea to catch bass.
Bass is not a particularly expensive species, but the price is not cheap either. Lu Ao thought for a while and said, "It depends on your price. How much do you plan to sell for a fish?"
"We are all regular customers, and I won't cheat you, how about a dollar a fish, mine are all good sea bass."
"Okay, send it to me to see the quality after you finish it. I want about a thousand tails."
Mosquitoes are meat no matter how small they are, and Old Xu didn't dislike them. He quickly nodded and responded, "Okay, then I'll leave you a thousand tails. Do you have anything else you want? I'll help you with it." .”
"It's gone for now, I'll find you again if I need it."
"No problem, then I'll go back first."
Lu Ao sent him out, then turned back and released the dragon grouper seedlings to the ocean ranch.
Coconut crab seedlings need to be raised again, otherwise such fragile crab seedlings will die for various reasons in two or three times.
After finishing the housework, Lu Ao took the crab seedlings to the ocean ranch.
With the help of Lu Ao, the five dolphins he rescued merged well with Ah Da. Now when Ah Da and the others go out to play and hunt for food, they will also bring these five dolphins with them. Sooner or later, the dolphins are basically gone. In the ocean ranch.
The killer whale and the white whale showed the attributes of a dead house. In fact, the killer whale only swims around the ocean ranch every day and never takes a step out of this area.
When Lu Ao went to release the dragon grouper seedlings, the killer whale saw him and swam over specially, swimming around beside his boat, wanting to get close to him.
Even after seeing the dragon grouper seedlings, the orca was unmoved, and had no intention of playing with them at all.
Lu Ao touched the big head of the killer whale, and said: "This is a new fry I put in, please take a look at it, and don't let them be eaten by other fish too early."
The orca opened its mouth and let out a cry, and agreed confidently.
Lu Ao patted its head again, and said, "Don't stay around here all day, go out and play with Ah Da and the others."
This time the killer whale's cry expressed disapproval.
Lu Ao can't force it, so he can only let it go.
This day, when Song Zhou came back, Lu Ao was on the phone.
Song Zhou arranged the food he had brought back, went inside to get the dishes and served soup for the two, and sat aside to wait.
Before Lu Ao finished the phone call, Song Zhou sat beside him and listened for a while, and realized that Lu Ao was communicating with someone from the construction company.
After he hung up the phone, Song Zhou asked, "What did the construction company say?"
"Didn't they come to inspect it last week? After inspecting it, they said they couldn't do it. They didn't have the confidence to make it. What I heard from them was not that they couldn't make it, but that if they wanted to make it, I'm afraid they would have to pay extra."
Lu Ao had a headache when he said this, and he had been working on the island for a long time.
Yandong County is not developed. I heard that he wanted to invest in building a hotel. The government was very happy. He didn't encounter any obstacles during the approval process. He paid the money and rented the island smoothly. Now he is going further. Follow the process.
It was the construction companies that gave Lu Ao a headache.
There are not many construction companies in China that are qualified to undertake the construction of such a large hotel. After the construction companies have no shortage of customers, the conditions for receiving orders are becoming more and more stringent.
This Lu Ao can barely accept it. What makes him unbearable is that these construction companies originally reached a verbal agreement with him, and finally overturned it when they signed the contract. Many clauses dare not be written into the contract. , In the end, after the calculation, you have to pay and pay again. It is clear that if you catch someone who has been taken advantage of, you will try your best.
"Wash your hands first." Song Zhou gently pushed him, "And then?"
Lu Ao went to wash his hands and came over to drink soup, "This construction company is not reliable, I'd better find another one. Weng Qian suggested that I adopt a global bidding method, so that I can take a long-term view."
What they can contact now is the construction companies in the province and nearby provinces. Only by public bidding can all the qualified construction companies in the country focus on their island.
Then they might be able to attract foreign construction companies.
Money is going to be spent anyway, so instead of spending a lot of money to hire an average company, it is better to pay more to hire a top construction company.
Song Zhou picked up a piece of mutton for him, "Then please, tell me if you don't have enough money."
"It's not a matter of money, it's just that my ocean ranch has been in production for so long. Until now, apart from Weng Qian's monthly income, we haven't had any other income, so we have been investing money outside. If it were replaced by an ordinary company, the capital chain would have been broken long ago.”
"We are not an ordinary company, and there is no such thing as a broken capital chain." Songzhou comforted, "You can't run out of money, so just do whatever you want."
Lu Ao took a deep breath, "I see, I'll think about it again, and I'll tell you if I have any ideas."
Lu Ao is a person who has high demands on himself, even if no one around him has said anything about him, he still inevitably becomes anxious.
At this time, a group of fish thieves came to his ocean ranch, which made him extremely angry.
It happened one evening.
Now Lu Ao's frequency of going to the marine ranch to feed has been reduced to once a day. In most cases, he goes to feed in the morning and not in the evening.
The ocean ranch is not far from home. If there is a lot of movement there, Lu Ao can hear some at home.
This afternoon, at home, he faintly heard the warning sound of the killer whale, and thought that someone had the audacity to come and steal the killer whale.
At that time, he was so angry that he put on his shoes and went out, got on his motorcycle and drove to the ocean ranch.
Unexpectedly, when he arrived at the reef, he found that the killer whale was still churning in the ocean ranch, making warning calls from its mouth, and there were no ships or humans around.
Lu Ao wondered for a moment, and soon discovered that the killer whale's warning was not aimed at humans, but a school of fish in the sea.
It's evening now, the time when most schools of fish forage, and dolphins are no exception.
The dolphins go out to look for food together, and only killer whales and beluga whales stay behind in the ocean ranch.The white whale was also making warning calls, the voice was very serious, and it swooped into the water from time to time to chase some fish.
They were clearly fighting the fish.
Lu Ao looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he simply took off his clothes, jumped into the sea, suddenly changed into a dragon shape, and swam to the side of the killer whale.
"Roar!" Lu Ao yelled, and asked the killer whale consciously, what's going on now?
Killer whales have a very high IQ and can express simple meanings.
It told Lu Ao that a group of big fish came over this afternoon and had been stealing the fish in the ocean ranch. It and the white whale were desperately chasing the group of fish. The group of fish swam away from one side and came from the other side. They I was tired all afternoon, but I couldn't really drive away a few.
The killer whale blinked its big round eyes as it spoke, full of grievances.
When it was young, it lived in a group of killer whales. Wherever it went, there were a large group of killer whales. Basically, they were never left alone. As killer whales, they were almost a tyrant in the sea. No matter what creatures, they dared to go up and provoke them. , I have never tried this kind of dumb loss.
It's okay to go up today to drive them away, but the opposite side is still united in groups to harass them in turn.
It really explains what it means to be bullied by dogs when a tiger falls in Pingyang.
After Lu Ao heard about it, he touched its head with his dragon claws, and raised his claws to infuse it with some vitality and go in to relieve its fatigue.
After calming down the killer whale, Lu Ao swam over to the white whale again, and lost some vitality to the white whale. The white whale liked Lu Ao very much. When he saw Lu Ao, he came over and rubbed his head against Lu Ao.
At this moment, a group of black shadows swam in the distance.
The killer whale and the white whale swam beside Lu Ao and told him that the opposite was the fish that had been running over to eat fish this afternoon.
The killer whale's emotions were a little more intense. It told Lu Ao that it was the group of robbers opposite.
The word robber, it is not very accurate, but it is a word used to describe bad guys.
Lu Ao felt angry when he heard this, and felt a little cute.
He looked up.
It is said to be on the opposite side, but it is actually a little far away, at least two to 300 meters away, and there is a school of big fish over there.
Lu Ao's eyesight is very good now, and he can easily see their figures clearly.
The heads of this group of fish are a bit strange, not as pointed as other fish, but somewhat rounded.
What surprised Lu Ao the most was that this group of fish was very big, one bigger than the red friend fish he had caught before, and each fish weighed at least sixty to seventy catties.
This ocean ranch is actually relatively close to the shore. There are not too few fish here, but not too many, especially some big ones, which are basically invisible at ordinary times.
There are few small fish here, and if the big ones stay here for a long time, they will not get enough food at all. Besides, as big fish, there are already big fish such as beluga whales and killer whales here in Lu Ao, and they do not have an advantage.
Lu Ao took a look and knew that these fish were foreign species.
There are too many types of sea fish, and he didn't dare to confirm what kind of fish it was.
Staring at the fish, he called out warning calls at them.
These fish don't know that this is his ocean ranch, and they don't know that the fish are raised by him. It's not a strange thing to come to steal fish to eat. Maybe in the eyes of these fish, they just came to hunt and were attacked by white whales. and the drive of killer whales.
All wild animals actually follow a big principle, that is, whoever fists hard listens to whom. Lu Ao's fists are harder now, so he ordered the group of fish to leave.
He originally thought that things would go smoothly, but once he emerged as a dragon, he was basically in no danger, and no fish really disobeyed his orders.
This time he was wrong, even though he ordered the fish to leave here in the shape of a dragon, and never set foot here, these fish still didn't take it seriously, and even several fish even showed their teeth, a little bit like rushing to bite him.
This made Lu Ao very angry. The dignity of the dragon cannot be challenged.
With a long whistle, he warned the group of fish again, if the group of fish did not restrain themselves, he would rush over to clean them up.
Unexpectedly, this group of fish didn't take it seriously at all, and even swam towards Lu Ao.
Lu Ao simply rushed over without talking nonsense.
This group of fish thought that Lu Ao would be like beluga whales and killer whales, just rushing over to bite them, but they couldn't really bite them.
They didn't take it seriously, and when Lu Ao rushed over, they quickly spread around.
A few fish even wagged their tails provocatively at Lu Ao.
As a dragon, Lu Ao's speed was much faster than that of the beluga whale and the killer whale. He rushed over and gave the two fish wagging their tails a claw.
The strength of the dragon's claws was extremely strong. When the two claws went down, the two fish immediately turned up their bellies and floated to the surface of the sea.
The rest of the fish immediately scattered in panic, since Lu Ao made a move, he would not let them go.
He chased after him and continued to claw one by one, and knocked out three more fish in one breath.
Now, the remaining fish no longer dared to stay in this area any longer, and tried their best to flee far away.
Seeing this, Lu Ao didn't chase much. He swam to the surface of the sea to check the five fish he had photographed.
Among the five fish, three were killed, and the remaining two were just knocked out, but they were also seriously injured.Lu Ao gave the two killed fish to the beluga whale and the killer whale, and the dragon claw dragged the remaining three fish to the shore.
He hadn't fished in his ocean ranch for a long time, and he didn't expect that there would be a bumper harvest today.
Lu Ao changed back into a dragon shape, attracted rain to wash off the sea water on his body, put on his clothes, took out his mobile phone and took a picture of the three fish.
He is familiar with protecting fish.
The fish was clearly not any fish he knew.
After using the image search function to search for a while, Lu Ao found the name of the fish - Ronin trevally, a fish with a very good taste when eating sashimi.
Since it is not a protected fish, it doesn't matter if it is eaten.
Lu Ao took a look at the fish and sent it directly to Moments: Today I caught three ronin trevally, and the family couldn't finish it. I plan to sell it, first come first served.
"Are you sure?" Lu Ao asked him, "Coconut crab is not cheap, but my lion's head goose is also very expensive. How do you want to change it?"
"This is indeed a question, how about one coconut crab seedling for ten goose seedlings?" Feng Jinhao said proudly, "I'm not boasting, my coconut crab seedlings are very precious and have won awards, you get ten goose seedlings It’s not a disadvantage to exchange for my coconut crab seedlings.”
"Not so good." Lu Ao said bluntly, "My lion head goose seedlings are also very precious. If they are sold to the outside world, in terms of price alone, my goose seedlings may not be cheaper than your crab seedlings. Some people want to buy coconut crabs Even if you don’t buy crab seedlings from you, you can always find other ways.

Feng Jinhao originally thought that the business would go very smoothly this time, but he didn't expect him to say that, he was taken aback for a moment, "Then how do you plan to change it, you can talk about it first, we discuss it, it doesn't necessarily mean that I will do whatever I say. .”
Lu Ao thought for a while, "How about this, you bring a pair of good coconut crab breed crabs, and I'll give you a pair of good lion head goose breed geese, and we will exchange them one by one."
"This way?" Feng Jinhao hesitated, "I'm afraid it won't work. Adult coconut crabs weigh two to three kilograms. This deal is not fair."
"My lion head goose weighs thirty to forty catties as an adult, several times bigger than your coconut crab."
"That's what I said, but we also need to look at market benefits. A coconut crab with seeds can give birth to tens of thousands of young coconut crabs, and a mother goose can lay more than 300 fertilized eggs at most in a year. Just hypothetical, in reality it doesn't have that many fertilized eggs a year."
Lu Ao was not in a hurry when he heard his implicit rejection, "If you look at the market benefits, the people from the Agricultural Research Institute wanted to buy my lion-headed goose, and the price of one was [-] to [-], and the current market price is even higher. It has reached [-] to [-], and I can sell it anytime I want, although your coconut crab is precious, it is not rare."
Lu Ao's meaning is obvious, his coconut crab seedlings are not worth such a price.
Feng Jinhao shook his head, disagreed, and kept saying, "No, how can there be such a business?"
Lu Ao was not in a hurry after hearing this, and said to him: "You go back and think about it first? When you think about it, we will continue to discuss this business."
Feng Jinhao was a little embarrassed, but still insisted on refusing, "If the conditions you said are followed, this business will definitely not be negotiated. Your bid is so low, how can you change it?"

Feng Jinhao said he wanted to go back and think about it, so Lu Ao asked him to think about it.
More than a week has passed, and he hasn't heard back. Lu Ao knows that this matter is probably gone.
Huang Ningna also guessed it, and even called Lu Ao to apologize.

Lu Ao agreed, hung up the phone after exchanging greetings with him, and called Lao Xu from the fish fry farm.
Lao Xu answered the phone immediately, and smiled before saying anything, "I was just about to call you, it seems that we have a good understanding."

"Five yuan a tail, I want it all."
Old Xu was distressed, "Five yuan is too little, you can go to the whole city, no - you can't find such a low price in the whole province, you can give more, to save face."

Old Xu declared again, "I tried my best to choose healthy ones for you, but you also know the climate here, and I can't guarantee whether they will be able to support you."
Lu Ao nodded, "I know this well, don't worry, I won't blame you."
"That's fine. Then let's talk about giant grouper fry. Five yuan and five for one, and 860 for two. Let's count 850 for you."
"no problem."
Lu Ao has always been quick to pay. After the two parties settled the amount, he used his mobile phone to send the money to Lao Xu.
After Lao Xu was sure that the bank had received the money, he smiled so hard that he couldn't see his teeth, "I just like your straightforwardness. I still have a batch of seabass fry over there, which have just been bred and haven't started selling yet. If you want it, I will Leave a few hundred tails for you too?"
Lu Ao almost forgot about the sea bass.
They have a lot of bass here, and last year he brought a special bass button out of the sea to catch bass.
Bass is not a particularly expensive species, but the price is not cheap either. Lu Ao thought for a while and said, "It depends on your price. How much do you plan to sell for a fish?"
"We are all regular customers, and I won't cheat you, how about a dollar a fish, mine are all good sea bass."
"Okay, send it to me to see the quality after you finish it. I want about a thousand tails."
Mosquitoes are meat no matter how small they are, and Old Xu didn't dislike them. He quickly nodded and responded, "Okay, then I'll leave you a thousand tails. Do you have anything else you want? I'll help you with it." .”
"It's gone for now, I'll find you again if I need it."
"No problem, then I'll go back first."
Lu Ao sent him out, then turned back and released the dragon grouper seedlings to the ocean ranch.
Coconut crab seedlings need to be raised again, otherwise such fragile crab seedlings will die for various reasons in two or three times.
After finishing the housework, Lu Ao took the crab seedlings to the ocean ranch.
With the help of Lu Ao, the five dolphins he rescued merged well with Ah Da. Now when Ah Da and the others go out to play and hunt for food, they will also bring these five dolphins with them. Sooner or later, the dolphins are basically gone. In the ocean ranch.
The killer whale and the white whale showed the attributes of a dead house. In fact, the killer whale only swims around the ocean ranch every day and never takes a step out of this area.
When Lu Ao went to release the dragon grouper seedlings, the killer whale saw him and swam over specially, swimming around beside his boat, wanting to get close to him.
Even after seeing the dragon grouper seedlings, the orca was unmoved, and had no intention of playing with them at all.
Lu Ao touched the big head of the killer whale, and said: "This is a new fry I put in, please take a look at it, and don't let them be eaten by other fish too early."
The orca opened its mouth and let out a cry, and agreed confidently.
Lu Ao patted its head again, and said, "Don't stay around here all day, go out and play with Ah Da and the others."
This time the killer whale's cry expressed disapproval.
Lu Ao can't force it, so he can only let it go.
This day, when Song Zhou came back, Lu Ao was on the phone.
Song Zhou arranged the food he had brought back, went inside to get the dishes and served soup for the two, and sat aside to wait.
Before Lu Ao finished the phone call, Song Zhou sat beside him and listened for a while, and realized that Lu Ao was communicating with someone from the construction company.
After he hung up the phone, Song Zhou asked, "What did the construction company say?"
"Didn't they come to inspect it last week? After inspecting it, they said they couldn't do it. They didn't have the confidence to make it. What I heard from them was not that they couldn't make it, but that if they wanted to make it, I'm afraid they would have to pay extra."
Lu Ao had a headache when he said this, and he had been working on the island for a long time.
Yandong County is not developed. I heard that he wanted to invest in building a hotel. The government was very happy. He didn't encounter any obstacles during the approval process. He paid the money and rented the island smoothly. Now he is going further. Follow the process.
It was the construction companies that gave Lu Ao a headache.
There are not many construction companies in China that are qualified to undertake the construction of such a large hotel. After the construction companies have no shortage of customers, the conditions for receiving orders are becoming more and more stringent.
This Lu Ao can barely accept it. What makes him unbearable is that these construction companies originally reached a verbal agreement with him, and finally overturned it when they signed the contract. Many clauses dare not be written into the contract. , In the end, after the calculation, you have to pay and pay again. It is clear that if you catch someone who has been taken advantage of, you will try your best.
"Wash your hands first." Song Zhou gently pushed him, "And then?"
Lu Ao went to wash his hands and came over to drink soup, "This construction company is not reliable, I'd better find another one. Weng Qian suggested that I adopt a global bidding method, so that I can take a long-term view."
What they can contact now is the construction companies in the province and nearby provinces. Only by public bidding can all the qualified construction companies in the country focus on their island.
Then they might be able to attract foreign construction companies.
Money is going to be spent anyway, so instead of spending a lot of money to hire an average company, it is better to pay more to hire a top construction company.
Song Zhou picked up a piece of mutton for him, "Then please, tell me if you don't have enough money."
"It's not a matter of money, it's just that my ocean ranch has been in production for so long. Until now, apart from Weng Qian's monthly income, we haven't had any other income, so we have been investing money outside. If it were replaced by an ordinary company, the capital chain would have been broken long ago.”
"We are not an ordinary company, and there is no such thing as a broken capital chain." Songzhou comforted, "You can't run out of money, so just do whatever you want."
Lu Ao took a deep breath, "I see, I'll think about it again, and I'll tell you if I have any ideas."
Lu Ao is a person who has high demands on himself, even if no one around him has said anything about him, he still inevitably becomes anxious.
At this time, a group of fish thieves came to his ocean ranch, which made him extremely angry.
It happened one evening.
Now Lu Ao's frequency of going to the marine ranch to feed has been reduced to once a day. In most cases, he goes to feed in the morning and not in the evening.
The ocean ranch is not far from home. If there is a lot of movement there, Lu Ao can hear some at home.
This afternoon, at home, he faintly heard the warning sound of the killer whale, and thought that someone had the audacity to come and steal the killer whale.
At that time, he was so angry that he put on his shoes and went out, got on his motorcycle and drove to the ocean ranch.
Unexpectedly, when he arrived at the reef, he found that the killer whale was still churning in the ocean ranch, making warning calls from its mouth, and there were no ships or humans around.
Lu Ao wondered for a moment, and soon discovered that the killer whale's warning was not aimed at humans, but a school of fish in the sea.
It's evening now, the time when most schools of fish forage, and dolphins are no exception.
The dolphins go out to look for food together, and only killer whales and beluga whales stay behind in the ocean ranch.The white whale was also making warning calls, the voice was very serious, and it swooped into the water from time to time to chase some fish.
They were clearly fighting the fish.
Lu Ao looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he simply took off his clothes, jumped into the sea, suddenly changed into a dragon shape, and swam to the side of the killer whale.
"Roar!" Lu Ao yelled, and asked the killer whale consciously, what's going on now?
Killer whales have a very high IQ and can express simple meanings.
It told Lu Ao that a group of big fish came over this afternoon and had been stealing the fish in the ocean ranch. It and the white whale were desperately chasing the group of fish. The group of fish swam away from one side and came from the other side. They I was tired all afternoon, but I couldn't really drive away a few.
The killer whale blinked its big round eyes as it spoke, full of grievances.
When it was young, it lived in a group of killer whales. Wherever it went, there were a large group of killer whales. Basically, they were never left alone. As killer whales, they were almost a tyrant in the sea. No matter what creatures, they dared to go up and provoke them. , I have never tried this kind of dumb loss.
It's okay to go up today to drive them away, but the opposite side is still united in groups to harass them in turn.
It really explains what it means to be bullied by dogs when a tiger falls in Pingyang.
After Lu Ao heard about it, he touched its head with his dragon claws, and raised his claws to infuse it with some vitality and go in to relieve its fatigue.
After calming down the killer whale, Lu Ao swam over to the white whale again, and lost some vitality to the white whale. The white whale liked Lu Ao very much. When he saw Lu Ao, he came over and rubbed his head against Lu Ao.
At this moment, a group of black shadows swam in the distance.
The killer whale and the white whale swam beside Lu Ao and told him that the opposite was the fish that had been running over to eat fish this afternoon.
The killer whale's emotions were a little more intense. It told Lu Ao that it was the group of robbers opposite.
The word robber, it is not very accurate, but it is a word used to describe bad guys.
Lu Ao felt angry when he heard this, and felt a little cute.
He looked up.
It is said to be on the opposite side, but it is actually a little far away, at least two to 300 meters away, and there is a school of big fish over there.
Lu Ao's eyesight is very good now, and he can easily see their figures clearly.
The heads of this group of fish are a bit strange, not as pointed as other fish, but somewhat rounded.
What surprised Lu Ao the most was that this group of fish was very big, one bigger than the red friend fish he had caught before, and each fish weighed at least sixty to seventy catties.
This ocean ranch is actually relatively close to the shore. There are not too few fish here, but not too many, especially some big ones, which are basically invisible at ordinary times.
There are few small fish here, and if the big ones stay here for a long time, they will not get enough food at all. Besides, as big fish, there are already big fish such as beluga whales and killer whales here in Lu Ao, and they do not have an advantage.
Lu Ao took a look and knew that these fish were foreign species.
There are too many types of sea fish, and he didn't dare to confirm what kind of fish it was.
Staring at the fish, he called out warning calls at them.
These fish don't know that this is his ocean ranch, and they don't know that the fish are raised by him. It's not a strange thing to come to steal fish to eat. Maybe in the eyes of these fish, they just came to hunt and were attacked by white whales. and the drive of killer whales.
All wild animals actually follow a big principle, that is, whoever fists hard listens to whom. Lu Ao's fists are harder now, so he ordered the group of fish to leave.
He originally thought that things would go smoothly, but once he emerged as a dragon, he was basically in no danger, and no fish really disobeyed his orders.
This time he was wrong, even though he ordered the fish to leave here in the shape of a dragon, and never set foot here, these fish still didn't take it seriously, and even several fish even showed their teeth, a little bit like rushing to bite him.
This made Lu Ao very angry. The dignity of the dragon cannot be challenged.
With a long whistle, he warned the group of fish again, if the group of fish did not restrain themselves, he would rush over to clean them up.
Unexpectedly, this group of fish didn't take it seriously at all, and even swam towards Lu Ao.
Lu Ao simply rushed over without talking nonsense.
This group of fish thought that Lu Ao would be like beluga whales and killer whales, just rushing over to bite them, but they couldn't really bite them.
They didn't take it seriously, and when Lu Ao rushed over, they quickly spread around.
A few fish even wagged their tails provocatively at Lu Ao.
As a dragon, Lu Ao's speed was much faster than that of the beluga whale and the killer whale. He rushed over and gave the two fish wagging their tails a claw.
The strength of the dragon's claws was extremely strong. When the two claws went down, the two fish immediately turned up their bellies and floated to the surface of the sea.
The rest of the fish immediately scattered in panic, since Lu Ao made a move, he would not let them go.
He chased after him and continued to claw one by one, and knocked out three more fish in one breath.
Now, the remaining fish no longer dared to stay in this area any longer, and tried their best to flee far away.
Seeing this, Lu Ao didn't chase much. He swam to the surface of the sea to check the five fish he had photographed.
Among the five fish, three were killed, and the remaining two were just knocked out, but they were also seriously injured.Lu Ao gave the two killed fish to the beluga whale and the killer whale, and the dragon claw dragged the remaining three fish to the shore.
He hadn't fished in his ocean ranch for a long time, and he didn't expect that there would be a bumper harvest today.
Lu Ao changed back into a dragon shape, attracted rain to wash off the sea water on his body, put on his clothes, took out his mobile phone and took a picture of the three fish.
He is familiar with protecting fish.
The fish was clearly not any fish he knew.
After using the image search function to search for a while, Lu Ao found the name of the fish - Ronin trevally, a fish with a very good taste when eating sashimi.
Since it is not a protected fish, it doesn't matter if it is eaten.
Lu Ao took a look at the fish and sent it directly to Moments: Today I caught three ronin trevally, and the family couldn't finish it. I plan to sell it, first come first served.
