Chapter 211 Two-color lobster
Yu Hongbo nodded to express his understanding.

Following You Zhiyong's return to the ship, the "Yushui" restarted, Ye Yuan didn't care about the affairs on the deck anymore, but went back to the rest cabin alone, opened his laptop, and searched online for information about that special-colored lobster. material.

Ye Yuan was surprised by the found results, this kind of lobster really exists, but the number is really small.

Ye Yuan caught this lobster, which is called a two-color lobster in the data.

It is a lobster with two colors on the body, and the colors on the left and right sides of the body are actually different. Such a lobster is called a bicolor lobster.

According to the data, the probability of this kind of lobster appearing is very low, about one in 5000 million.

This lobster was caught by an Eagle Country fisherman in July 2017. It was nicknamed "Harley Quinn" because of the color difference on both sides of the body.

Many biologists believe that the reason for the appearance of lobsters is due to genetic mutations in lobsters, but this situation is very rare.

One of the existing cases is a resident of a small town in Maine, country M, who caught a two-color lobster, half orange and half brown.

According to the researchers' findings, this is a special developmental consequence of the complete cell division when lobster eggs are first fertilized.

The lobsters developed by this special cell division often have both sexes, which is the so-called "hermaphroditism".

In the past ten years, such lobsters have only appeared in the waters of Maine and Canada.

If we talk about the value of this two-color lobster, Ye Yuan believes that it is an astronomical figure, after all, rare things are more expensive.

But the probability of finding a two-color lobster is too low. Only one two-color lobster may exist in 5000 million lobsters. The probability of encountering it is even lower than winning the lottery.

Ye Yuan doesn't plan to sell or eat this lobster, he plans to raise it himself after returning home.

In the past, he planned to send it to his sister's seafood shop or Deng Kai's ornamental fish shop, but after knowing that this lobster is the third two-color lobster found in the world, Ye Yuan has a better way, that is to take it by himself. He raised it.

Ye Yuan has always planned to build a small aquarium in his villa, but he has never had the time to do it.

Ye Yuan believes that as the number of times he goes out to sea increases, he may find a lot of rare marine life.

When the time comes, build a small aquarium by yourself and raise these precious creatures, which will be good for them and yourself.

Under the laws of nature, these precious marine creatures may not be extinct any day, but if they are in their own hands, they will definitely grow up healthily with the guarantee of space lake water.

At that time, when they form a group, and then put some of them back into the sea, it can be regarded as some contribution to Blue Star.

Just as Ye Yuan was thinking about this, the satellite phone on the table rang.

Ye Yuan was very surprised. Not many people knew about this satellite phone. If it was not urgent, no one would make this call.

Ye Yuan picked up the phone, and Li Hui's voice came from the other side.

"Xiaoyuan, how long will it take for you to come back?"

Ye Yuan could hear from his tone that Li Hui was in a rather exhausted state right now.

"What happened?"

"A tide of moss broke out on the Blue Island"

Li Hui seemed to have exhausted all the strength in his body to say these words.

Ye Yuan knew it was going to be bad when he heard the tidal wave of Enteromorpha, and asked hastily:

"Is it a big loss?"

"It's not small, although we try to avoid losses as much as possible, but it's still not small.

We have caught some fish and shellfish that can be sold and sent them to my sister. As for the nursery and those abalone fry, only a part of them have been rescued.

Because the quantity of our fish is too large, my sister can't sell it immediately, and many sea fish can only be frozen. In this way, the price difference is more than a little bit, and the loss to the fishing ground is still not small. "

Li Hui explained the current situation of the fishing ground in one breath.

"Well, I see. I will rush back as soon as possible. You comfort the workers so that they don't have too many worries."

After Ye Yuan finished speaking, he hung up the phone directly.

The tide of Enteromorpha, for a farmer, is simply a disaster.It is called a marine ecological killer by some fishermen.

Enteromorpha is also known as moss strips, moss vegetables, green algae Ulvaceae plants.

The algae are bright green, composed of a single layer of cells, surrounded by tubes or adhered into ribbons.The cell arrangement is related to the species, mononuclear, and one or more starchy nuclei.

Due to global climate change, water eutrophication and other reasons, the green tide of the large marine alga Enteromorpha broke out.

A large amount of Enteromorpha floats and gathers on the shore, blocking waterways, destroying marine ecosystems, and seriously threatening the development of coastal fisheries and tourism.

It grows in the intertidal zone along the coast of Huaguo, and the coast of the East China Sea has the largest output.

A large number of Enteromorpha can block sunlight and affect the growth of seabed algae, and dead Enteromorpha can also consume oxygen in the sea, which can cause a large number of marine life to die.

In many countries, the outbreak of large green algae such as Enteromorpha has been called "green tide", and it is regarded as a marine disaster like red tide.

Thinking about the red tide scene that Ye Yuan saw when he went out to sea before, it is not difficult to imagine how much economic loss this tide of Enteromorpha would bring to Ye Yuan.

However, there is no good way to eradicate Enteromorpha at present. The only way is to adopt the oldest method, which is manual salvage.

Ye Yuan still doesn't know how big the tide of Enteromorpha is, but since Li Hui can call him, it must not be too small, otherwise he wouldn't have to catch all the fish he raised.

Ye Yuan went directly to the cockpit and told Ding Yi and Wang Husheng to return the "Yushui" at full speed.

Yu Hongbo also received the news that Ye Yuan gave up his plan to continue fishing on the way back to the voyage, and he wanted to go back as quickly as possible.

Although I can't continue to catch fish, but the harvest of the previous few days plus today's stonefish, I am generally satisfied.

Because it was returning at full speed, Ye Yuan's fishing boat finally arrived at the blue island waters at noon 7 days later.

When the fishing boats entered the waters of Blue Island, they found that the place had changed completely.

The originally blue sea was covered with a thick green coat by a large number of Enteromorpha moss. From a distance, it feels more like an endless grassland.

Large and small fishing boats are fishing for a large number of Enteromorpha, Ye Yuan's fishing boat has to slow down because of Enteromorpha.

Ye Yuan stood on the deck, frowning and looking in the direction of Yuwan Island.

"Boss, shall I drive you back by helicopter first?"

Wang Husheng's voice sounded behind Ye Yuan.

Ye Yuan nodded, that's the only way to go, the speed of the fishing boat is too slow now, if according to this speed, it will be considered fast to reach Yuwan Island after dark.

With the rotation of the propeller, the helicopter that Ye Yuan bought and hadn't used much finally came into use. The helicopter flew towards Yuwan Island like an arrow off the string.

This was Ye Yuan's first time flying a helicopter, but because he was anxious to get back to Yuwan Island as soon as possible, he was not in the mood to experience this flight experience.
