Mr. Peng smiled and said, "Brother Xiang, tell me the account number you want to transfer the money to!"
Xiang Yang didn't waste any time and directly reported an Industrial and Commercial Bank of China account.
Mr. Peng made a phone call, and within two minutes Xiang Yang received a notification of payment on his mobile phone.
"boss."
"Brother Yang."
Another large sum of money came into the account, and both Chen Qingsheng, Fang Youqun and Xiang Hui were a little excited.
Xiang Yang extended his hand and said, "Mr. Peng, it's a pleasure to work with you."
Mr. Peng shook hands with Xiang Yang and said, "Our cooperation will be more pleasant in the future."
Mr. Peng only brought two people with him, so Xiang Yang asked Chen Qingsheng and others to lend a hand and help Mr. Peng transport the Christmas tree worms to the exhibition city.
Mr. Peng did not refuse and directly asked his men to take Chen Qingsheng and the other two to deliver all the fish tanks and water tanks to a location he designated.
Chen Qingsheng and others became busy. Although moving water tanks was physical work, they had enough manpower and it was not tiring. One person carried two small fish tanks at a time and one person carried one large water tank. As for the water tanks, two people lifted them. It only took more than ten minutes to go back and forth several times.
Xiang Yang and Mr. Peng started chatting as they walked out of the underground garage.
"Brother Xiang, did you catch these Christmas tree worms yourself on the seabed?" asked Mr. Peng.
There is nothing to hide. "General Peng guessed correctly. It was indeed me who personally led people to the bottom of the sea to fish them out."
"Brother Xiang is lucky and courageous." Mr. Peng seemed to be chatting casually with Xiang Yang, but in fact, he kept talking about fish. He was intentionally or unintentionally introducing to Xiang Yang which ornamental fish in the seabed are valuable. Finally, he said: "If you catch other ornamental fish in the seabed, you can consider me."
Xiang Yangzhen thought about it for a while, and suddenly said: "I actually have a group of famous ornamental fish."
"Oh?" Mr. Peng became interested.
Xiang Yang then told him about the butterfly fish. He did not bring the butterfly fish with him on this trip to Longcheng. According to Xiang Yang's idea, he would first use the uncommon Christmas tree worms in the market as a surprise trick to open up the market for ornamental fish before considering the butterfly fish.
"It's a butterfly fish!" Mr. Peng couldn't hide a trace of disappointment on his face.
"What's the matter, Mr. Peng, you don't want this butterfly fish?" Xiang Yang thought to himself, could it be that his market information is outdated and this butterfly fish is no longer valuable
"Yes, but this fish is not worth much."
Through Mr. Peng's explanation, Xiang Yang roughly understood that although the butterfly fish was once very popular, it has a short lifespan of only 3-5 years on average. There is almost no possibility of appreciation after purchase, and it will only depreciate day by day. Therefore, this fish is not so popular at present.
There are very few people who specialize in butterfly fish in the market now. Generally, only newcomers to the industry or people outside the circle like to raise them. After all, the fish looks very beautiful when placed in the living room.
The price also varies according to the patterns on the body.
The most common ones are as cheap as a few dozen yuan each, while the more beautiful blue-faced butterfly fish, whip butterfly fish, and three-striped butterfly fish are slightly more expensive and can be sold for several hundred yuan each.
Among them, the three butterfly fish are gentle in temperament. Although they are marine fish, they are not difficult to raise. They can be placed in the store as decorative fish.
Xiang Yang lost interest as soon as he heard it. The price of dozens to hundreds was too low. It would be more cost-effective for him to catch a horsehead fish.
"Uncle, do you want to buy a turtle?" Xiang Yang heard a crisp child's voice as he just walked out of the parking lot.
Xiang Yang turned his head and saw a boy of eight or nine years old squatting on the lawn next to him. In front of him was a small iron basin filled with aloe vera gel. In the basin were three small turtles as big as teacup lids. It seemed that the child had caught them on the beach.
Xiang Yang was about to refuse without thinking, but he accidentally glanced into the small iron basin and was immediately frightened.
"What the hell!" Mr. Peng exclaimed directly.
There is no turtle in that iron basin!
The extremely flexible back has no bony shell at all, and the dark brown body is covered with white spots. This is the leatherback turtle!
Xiang Yang squatted down and carefully picked up a small turtle from the iron basin with two fingers.
"Be careful." Mr. Peng said in a nervous tone.
The little turtle was pinched by Xiang Yang and struggled in his palm. Xiang Yang didn't dare to use force and quickly put it back into the iron basin.
"Uncle, they don't bite." The boy said immediately when he saw Xiang Yang and Mr. Peng seemed to be very afraid of the turtle.
Xiang Yang and Mr. Peng looked at each other and saw solemnity in each other's eyes.
The leatherback turtle, also known as the leather turtle, is the largest sea turtle in the ocean. The heaviest leatherback turtle weighs nearly 2 tons. They like to live in temperate waters. The Pacific Ocean, Atlantic Ocean and Indian Ocean are all their living areas.
According to research reports, leatherback turtles may become completely extinct in the next ten to twenty years. They are currently listed as first-class protected animals in many countries, and are also listed in the Red List of Endangered Species of the World Conservation Union and the First-Class Protected Animals List of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora.
"Little boy, where did you get this turtle?" Xiang Yang asked in a serious tone.
The boy was obviously frightened by Xiang Yang's serious tone, and hurriedly explained: "I caught this on the beach, I didn't steal it."
"How many did you catch in total? Who did you sell them to? Do your parents know about this?"
"I only caught three, and my parents don't know I caught turtles," the boy said nervously.
Xiang Yang and Mr. Peng looked at each other and both breathed a sigh of relief. As long as it hadn't been sold yet, it was fine.
"If you encounter something like this, you can't pretend you didn't encounter it. Should you call the police directly?" Mr. Peng asked.
Xiang Yang thought about it and shook his head, saying, "This is the child's personal behavior and the leather turtles were not harmed. It doesn't matter whether we call the police or not. The key now is to protect these three leather turtles. Let me call my teacher first."
"Your teacher?"
"He is a professor of oceanography." Xiang Yang explained, then took out his cell phone and made a call.
The phone rang twice and then was hung up.
Xiang Yang immediately made the second call.
Hundreds of miles away in Pengcheng, in a terraced classroom of a certain ocean university, Chen Yu was teaching students.
He never answers the phone when he is giving a lecture, and he was very angry when his phone, which was on silent mode, vibrated twice in a row.
Xiang Yang? He thought for a long time while teaching before he remembered this person. This was a student of his from the previous years, and he had never contacted him since graduation.
It's actually normal that he can't remember. University is not like middle school where a class teacher only teaches one class. As a professor, he has to teach at least one class in every term. Except for freshmen and seniors writing graduation theses, students usually may not see each other for the entire academic year. Fortunately, he does not have the habit of deleting contacts after students graduate.
