Golden Fishery

Vol 2 Chapter 85: .Little bear in the forest

“What’s there to see on this? There will be no animals or wild vegetables, except for a few trees, which are silt. I suggest not to go up.” The sea monster said disapprovingly.

Shaq thought it right, and smiled: “When I was a kid, these islands were a bit bigger. We often came to play as an expedition. We called these islands in the lake “pirate dens”. Can’t get it.”

“Perhaps here, you can still find the treasures that were buried in the past.” Qin Shiou said, he propped the fishing ground to the shore, tried the test and the ground was dry, so he jumped off the boat and boarded the island.

Shaq and the sea monster looked at each other, and they were a little moved. Yeah, what if you could find the ‘treasure’ buried in it in childhood?

Most of the trees that can survive on this small island are metasequoias, ponds, and willows. These trees are rooted in the soil. The trunks are tilted, upright, or curvaceous, with a graceful posture and a bit of abstract beauty.

What surprised Qin Shiou is that these trees have survived in the water for a long time, and many places have changed. For example, their roots have become bright water red!

Shaq and the sea monster say that there is nothing here. At least there are many small fishes, shrimps, and freshwater crabs hiding on the coast. Years of fallen leaves and rotting roots provide these small aquatic creatures with rich nutrition. Attract them to roost.

In addition, this small island has become a resting place for birds. They fish in the lake and stay here when they are tired. There are more than 100 trees on the bank, almost every tree has more than one bird’s nest.

In this way, birds defecate around the island, and guano is also a nutritious food for fish, so that there are more fish around the island.

Qin Shiou opened some of the rotten leaves on the shore, and found several North American pike, inland herring, and small catfish fled in a panic.

It is pitiful to say that these fishes are all the former owners of Lake Shenbao, but now they are forced by Asian carps, so they can only run to the shore to find a living space.

“Oh, there is so much less water and weeds in the lake. Asian carp is too edible. If you eat like this, sooner or later there will be no grass in the lake, and there will be no fish at that time.” Shaq said dejectedly after watching for a while on the shore. .

Qin Shiou shrugged and said: “Or we can do a donation activity in the town, buy aquatic plants seeds and plant them in Shenbao Lake, just like I planted seaweed in a fishing ground.”

Last time he bought a lot of grass seeds and seaweed seeds, but they were all aimed at the ocean and could not grow in freshwater waters.

In North America, greening and environmental protection have always been very hot topics. This area is also quite expensive. Shenbao Lake covers an area of 80 to 90 square kilometers. If a large area of aquatic plants is planted, at least 50,000 yuan of seeds will be enough. .

The economic situation of the people in the farewell town is not very good. Even if the 50,000 yuan is part of it, it is a lot of pressure. This idea is doomed to not work, because Canadians will find the government if they have something to do, especially this Shenbao Lake is still a public place.

Walking around on the small island, it is estimated that no one has been here. The perched birds built the nests very casually. Qin Shiou walked to a willow tree with crooked neck, and there was a bird nest just a little higher than the top of his head.

Qin Shi’s gull approached, a big bird fluttering in the nest, with gray and black feathers, was a common North American river blackbird in Canada.

The big bird ran away, and there were four bird eggs smaller than eggs in the nest. Qin Shiou took a look in his hand and found that the bird eggs were still warm.

Seeing that his child was moved, North American Hewu circled and screamed vigorously over the island, probably cursing Qin Shiou as not a thing.

Qin Shiou really wanted to make a bird’s egg stir-fried chives to eat, it was delicious and strong, but this was just an idea, he looked at it and put the bird’s egg back.

This trip to the island is not without harvest, because it is humid, especially at night, the fog on Shenbao Lake, so a lot of fungus grows on the dead branches of the trees on the island, Qin Shiou recognizes that the umbrella cover is gray and umbrella. The brown-yellow fungus, which is very famous in his hometown, is called mountain shiitake mushroom.

Qin Shiou is very affectionate for this kind of fungus. When he was a child, the conditions in his family were not very good, and he usually didn’t eat meat. Usually his mother would search among the old logs in the yard after the rain, and she could find this mountain shiitake mushroom. After being fried in oil, it was particularly fragrant and more delicious than fatty meat.

There are other mushrooms in the woods. Qin Shiou doesn’t know him anymore. Shaq and the sea monsters know each other. They keep introducing him: “This is Brazil mushroom, you can eat it, this is Newfoundland Straw mushroom, and it tastes good; oh, I have also found Ontario red mushrooms here before, and the taste is more beautiful…”

Qin Shiou took off his clothes and carefully picked some mushrooms and fungi that were sure to be edible, especially mountain shiitake mushrooms. He found more, which added up to three or four catties.

“We can’t eat so much, can we?” Shaq asked, what Canadians pick in the wild, whether it is fungi or berries, is adequate, because the education they have received since childhood is like this.

Qin Shiou said: “Fry it fresh and eat it, and then I dry the rest after oiling it. The taste is even better.”

Fungi don’t care about protection, as long as they leave hyphae, it is equivalent to leaving seeds. If the humidity, temperature and light are appropriate, they will grow again. These things rot quickly. If Qin Shiou didn’t pick them, they would rot in a few days.

Shaq and the sea monsters admire Qin Shiou’s cooking skills. They heard that this thing can be made into delicious food. The two of them are more vigorous than Qin Shiou’s cooking. They are divided into two ways to outflank the island and pick up all the mushrooms they can find. Down.

After shooting fish for a while, the three of them shot more than forty Asian carp. They were tired and prepared to go back. As a result, they ran into Tang Ji and Hamley. The two of them carried various diving tools and testing equipment on board. Qin Shiou hit He greeted him and asked, “What are you going to do?”

Tang Ji waved enthusiastically and explained: “Let’s go to the water and see if we can find some more fossils. By the way, Qin, where did you find the fossils of the golden kitchen shark teeth last time?”

Qin Shiou scratched his head and smiled bitterly: “You can test me, man, I was busy shooting fish at the time and didn’t notice this.”

Hamley and Donji sighed regretfully, so they could only find a needle in a haystack.

Yes, looking for a needle in a haystack, relative to the 80 or 90 square kilometers of Shenbao Lake, they are looking for a needle in a haystack when they look for fossils.

Qin Shiou asked: “Is it important to find those fossils?”

If it is really important, he finds an opportunity to search the bottom of the lake with Poseidon consciousness.

Hamley nodded and said: “Yes, if we can find those fossils, the government can give us rewards. If we find more fossils, we can even set up an exhibition hall in the town. Then we can make money and improve some of the town. Infrastructure, such as buying some grass seeds and planting them into Lake Shenbao.”

Hearing Hamley say this, Qin Shiou somewhat admired him. The mayor is very competent and has been racking his brains for the development of the town. When he was in China, he did not see any mayor who would help the town improve the people’s livelihood. , And personally went to the lake to dive in search of possible fossils.

Qin Shiou tried to think about it. He put the Seagod consciousness into the lake, probably remembering the place where he found the golden kitchen shark teeth last time, showing the way for the two of them before leaving.

It was time for lunch, Shaq and the sea monster toasted bread, waiting for Qin Shiou to make fried mountain mushrooms.

This dish is very simple. It is delicious to eat mountain shiitake mushrooms. After boiling the oil, put the torn mountain shiitake mushrooms in a pan, and finally add coarse salt and a little soy sauce.

To make this dish, you need to use coarse salt instead of fine salt. The coarse salt does not disperse. If you bite it, the deliciousness of mountain mushrooms and the salty taste after chewing the salt grains blend together, which is simply beautiful.

Shake and sea monsters are eaten with bread, while Qin Shiou cooked spaghetti and mixed the noodles with frying oil, which was particularly fragrant.

“It’s a pity that there is no lard, otherwise it will be delicious if you stir fry with lard.” Qin Shiou sighed while sucking the noodles.

Shaq bit the bread with a hum, and said vaguely: “In the afternoon, let’s start work, bring a branch from the river, and then change the chicken, duck and pig to make them grow faster, so that you can eat it sooner. Right?”

Go to the town and find a small excavator. Shaq drove into the fishing ground, found an open area in the woods, and began to dig out the branches.

They found a straight line and designed to dig into a tributary about one meter wide and half a meter deep, which is tantamount to diverting the mountain stream.

Auerbach just came to play, and Qin Shiou proudly said to him: “How is it, sir, can we say that what we did is a feat?”

Looking at him weirdly, Auerbach asked: “You want the creek to pass through the pen, don’t you? In that case, why don’t you just build the pen to the upper reaches of the sea? Got it?”

Qin Shiou blinked when he listened to him, and the sea monster next to him blinked. Shake watched them calm down and jumped off the excavator and asked what was going on.

Hearing Auerbach’s suggestion, Shaq blinked and no one spoke.

Qin Shiou only knew at this time that people’s intelligence quotient will drop if they are with an idiot for a long time…

“What do you do now?” Shaq asked, looking at the fence that had been erected.

Qin Shiou looked at the tributary channel that had been dug halfway, and waved his hand weakly: “Forget it, man, continue to excavate, but the digging is shallower, and the depth of 20 cm is fine. Let’s not change the river channel and open one. Forget the tributaries.”

Shaq continued to work. He was about to ignite the fire after he got on the excavator. He suddenly yelled and said, “Hey, little bear, I saw a little brown bear!”

Qin Shiou hurried over, and the sea monster shouted: “Come back, BOSS, we have to prepare a gun! We need a gun!”

Shake stood on the car and pointed to the northeast. Qin Shiou looked at it and saw behind a thick spruce, a gray-brown puppy lying on the tree, with his head in a ghostly head, looking at them.
