    The fishermen finished their meal in a lively manner and went to bed in a comfortable mood. Qin Shiou was waiting for Snowball and Ice Skate to run over from the fishing ground, and they had just rounded Dell Corner.

    This is the first time for the two little guys to be so far away from home. In the past, they went to hunt in the deep sea fifty or sixty kilometers away from the coastline. This was the first time they were thousands of kilometers away from home. Qin Shiou was worried about something happening on the road, so he just waited for them.  .

    Before leaving, Smoking Gun gave him a basin with a bunch of sticky stuff in it. It looked disgusting, but it was very valuable. It was the famous Arctic ginseng.

    The seabed is not a simple plain terrain, seamounts and reefs can be seen everywhere, so sometimes when trawling, the fishing net will be dragged to the ground, so that some things attached to the seabed, such as sea cucumbers, will be caught.

    But in this case, abalone will not be caught. Abalone is different from sea cucumbers. They live close to the rocks. To catch wild abalone in Canada, you need to manually go into the sea and pry it with a knife to collect it.

    Unfortunately, Canada does not produce abalone very much. The entire west coast of the North Atlantic has very little abalone production. In international marine fishery statistics, they do not even participate in the rankings.

    But as the old saying goes, what is concentrated is the essence. Canadian abalone production is small, but its value is great.

    There is a small amount of BC piebald abalone in the Newfoundland fisheries. This kind of abalone is of the best quality in the world, because they can only grow in cold and clean waters and have the highest requirements on the living environment.

    When Qin Shiou raised Arctic ginseng before, he also planned to raise this kind of abalone together, but he couldn't buy abalone fry.  Because there is no precedent for successful artificial breeding of this thing, fishery owners have no demand for abalone fry. Without demand, there will naturally be no sales.

    "In addition, even if it can be cultured, Qin Shi'ou is not easy to sell. Canadian law has strict regulations. BC spotted abalone is a marine protected aquatic product and is not allowed to be sold commercially. Whoever sells it will be caught.

    ?????????????????????? If there is demand, there will be sales. If Qin Shiou can really breed this kind of abalone, then contact Butler, there are many ways to sell it.

    The government bans sales?  Why don't you just give me some money?  Wouldn't it be enough to control the media?  What?  Do you think this is illegal as bribery?

    No, no, for Canada and the United States, there is no bribery and corruption in politics. This is called political investment and financial aid.

    With the crazy increase in sea cucumber farms in various countries around the world in recent years, the price of sea cucumbers has plummeted, and it has changed from the protagonist of high-end dinners to the supporting role of rural wedding banquets. In the past, when Qin Shiou was in Haidao City, a sea cucumber only cost two and a half yuan during the harvest season.

    But this is an ordinary farm, and wild Arctic ginseng has always been expensive. Even in the North Atlantic regions of Canada, such as Newfoundland and New Brunswick, a ten-centimeter piece of wild Arctic ginseng can be sold for hundreds of dollars.

    ¡° Such a pot of Arctic ginseng, with more than fifty large and small ones in total, costs four to five thousand yuan.

    The fishermen carefully collected these sea cucumbers and wanted Qin Shiou to sell them for money. But now that Qin Shiou thought about it, he decided to make sea cucumber porridge together and eat them together.

    He picked fourteen or five fat sea cucumbers and put them into the clean sea water. Qin Shiou injected some Poseidon energy and went back to sleep.

    Before six o¡¯clock in the morning, the fishermen got up one after another, preparing to lower their nets for fishing or collect shrimp pots.

    Qin Shiou went to look at Snowball and Skate. Well, the two little guys were quite powerful. With the support of Poseidon's energy, they ran all the way to the Gulf of St. Lawrence without any distractions.

    After inputting some Poseidon energy into Snowball and Ice Skate again, Qin Shiou asked them to swim around the Harvest, but they swam for a while and suddenly stopped.

    Qin Shiou thought they had discovered something, so he went over to take a look. He made a big discovery: the two little guys swam from the depths of the seabed, so the seawater resistance was small. At this time, a super giant appeared on their path.  Big guy.

    This big fish is about 12 to 13 meters long, with a spindle-shaped body and a very thick torso, but not much meat, so it looks quite lean.  There is a protrusion on both sides of its tail peduncle. The head is large, slightly flattened on the side, and the whole is cone-shaped. The snout is short and round.

    The most representative thing is that this big fish has a very big mouth. At this time, it has completely opened its mouth. The mouth is one and a half meters in diameter, as if there is a big hole in the sea.

    Snowball and Ice Skate were running rampant, but they almost hit the big fish's mouth. They were so frightened that they quickly turned around and ran away, grinding their teeth as they ran, preparing for a fight.

    "As a result, the big fish with its mouth wide open didn't even look at the two of them. Maybe it glanced at them, but who knows, compared to the big mouth, this guy's eyesThe child is a bit small, as if sleeping with eyes squinted.

    Seeing the frightened expressions of the little guys, Qin Shiou couldn't help but laugh. He no longer worried after seeing the appearance of this big fish. This fish was a basking shark, the second largest existing fish in the world.

    Although basking sharks have such big mouths and powerful bodies, they are actually docile and herbivorous fish. They mainly feed on algae and plankton, and occasionally eat cephalopods such as squid and octopus.  Animals and fish are of no interest.

    Seeing the basking shark, Qin Shiou became interested.

    This big fish looks tough, but it is actually very suitable to accompany humans when diving in the sea. They have a docile personality, high intelligence, and are not easy to move around. They are very suitable for accompanying divers into the water.

    In addition, this shark is very mysterious.  Because they are slow-moving and easily hunted, and their shark fins are very valuable and they have super-large livers that take up a quarter of their body volume, they have been overfished by humans.

    Human overfishing quickly brought the honest basking shark to the brink of extinction. By the 1980s and 1990s, no one had discovered a basking shark for a full decade, so countries could only declare this type of fish extinct.

    The mystery is that in 1998, after the killing of basking sharks was made illegal and various countries issued fishing ban notices, they seemed to know that they were protected and would not be slaughtered arbitrarily, and then they slowly appeared again

    The Gulf of St. Lawrence is one of the places where basking sharks often appear. The largest basking shark ever discovered was found in the Gulf of St. Lawrence in the 1980s.

    But since the 1990s, no one has found them in the Gulf of St. Lawrence. Qin Shiou was really lucky to encounter this basking shark.

    At this time, the basking shark was floating above a large algae field composed of brown algae and cyanobacteria. It opened its mouth to suck in the seaweed and swam slowly, looking lazy.

    "The two little guys are both mean-spirited. When they encountered this big shark, they were so scared that they only wished that their parents had lost a few pairs of dorsal and pelvic fins and had no time to escape. Now they will find that people do not attack, and they want to tease people again.

    The first one to take action was Snowball. The little white whale tentatively moved up, but the big shark ignored it and was still concentrating on eating the seaweed around it.

    The ice knife opened its mouth to reveal the sharp teeth that are the signature of the tiger shark family, and rushed in front of the basking shark to demonstrate. The basking shark looked at it calmly, turned around and swam away.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
