Watching Fang Youqun and Fatty Zuo leave, Xiang Yang shook his head. He was not talking nonsense. In fact, Xiang Yang really thought that this method was feasible. However, whether it would succeed or not depended on the luck of Fang Youqun and Fatty Zuo.
Of course, even if these two people were not lucky, Xiang Yang would never allow them to do the same thing as before, at least he would not allow them to do so on the Qinglongwan coast.
"These two guys are interesting." Li Chao said with a smile.
Xiang Yang's face flushed slightly, and he changed the subject, "Boss Li, Boss Zhang, you probably don't have many opportunities to go underwater, right? How about we go down to the bottom of the sea and have some fun?"
When Li Chao heard Xiang Yang even changed his way of addressing him, he immediately knew that Xiang Yang didn't like to bring up this topic anymore, so he quickly changed the subject and said, "Indeed, but you, Brother Chao, are not good at swimming, so let Lao Zhang go with you."
"Mr. Li, it's okay if you are not good at swimming. Our captain has super advanced diving equipment, and I can protect you underwater." Chen Qingsheng interrupted.
Li Chao smiled and instinctively wanted to refuse, but when the words came to his mouth, he suddenly changed his mind, "Okay, thanks to Brother Xiang, I will also go to see the underwater world."
"Okay, then I'll go get the diving suit." Chen Qingsheng hurriedly ran towards the dock.
Soon, Xiang Yang, Li Chao, Zhang Qicheng, and Chen Qingsheng each put on a set of diving equipment and ran towards the beach.
When Li Chao put on the diving suit, his movements looked a little unfamiliar and it was obvious that he was not a frequent diver.
After going underwater, Li Chao became interested. He looked around and was interested in everything, looking here and there.
Not long after entering the water, Xiang Yang encountered a small group of swimming crabs, about ten of them, but neither Xiang Yang nor Li Chao took action. The swimming crabs swimming in front of them were not very big. The only slightly larger one was the leader. If the leader was caught, the entire colony might be destroyed. Xiang Yang chose to let them go so that they could recuperate and grow the colony.
The underground of the Qinglongwan sea area is covered with fine white sand, lush seaweed can be seen everywhere, and there are countless crevices between the reefs.
This provides a place for the crabs to settle down and take refuge.
Although there have been a lot of fishing by fishermen recently, Xiang Yang still saw a lot of swimming crabs in his sight, but they were not very big.
Obviously, after several generations of excessive fishing and experiencing the depletion of the fishery, the villagers gradually came to the concept of shifting cultivation. Most people would not catch these small crabs.
After reaching the bottom of the sea, although Li Chao was shocked by the bizarreness of the underwater world, he refused to swim any deeper, and even Zhang Qicheng couldn't pull him.
Xiang Yang was helpless. He still wanted to take Li Chao around underground in the Qinglongwan sea area. Now Li Chao was unwilling to cooperate. Xiang Yang could only ask Chen Qingsheng to stay and ask him to keep a close eye on Li Chao and Zhang Qicheng.
Xiang Yang himself swam towards the deeper sea.
After escaping the limit of Li Chao and the others' sight, Xiang Yang immediately accelerated, and his figure flashed quickly across the seabed like a flash of lightning. Along the way, Xiang Yang encountered countless small schools of fish, and also saw a large group of densely packed sardines with slender figures, short dorsal fins, and silver-gray bodies.
Xiang Yang secretly regretted that he had to swim out alone this time and did not drive the boat out.
Sardines are one of the most productive economic fish species in the world. Although they are very cheap individually, when fishermen encounter sardines, they are usually encountering large schools of fish, which means a good harvest.
Also, sardines take up no space on the boat.
There are almost no live sardines for sale in the market. Once this kind of fish is taken out of the water, it basically cannot be kept alive.
When ordinary fishing boats catch sardines, they just put them in a foam box and throw a few pieces of crushed ice in it.
It is more convenient for ocean-going fishing vessels to process them into cans and sell them at a very high price.
Sardines were sold wholesale to Zhang Qicheng, and one pound could be sold for more than ten yuan, if they were caught online. Xiang Yang shook his head and stopped thinking about these unrealistic things.
Avoiding these densely packed sardines that looked like locusts, Xiang Yang continued to swim forward.
"Huh?" Xiang Yang, who was swimming rapidly, suddenly stopped.
Xiang Yang is currently located above a deep trench fault layer with a water depth of over a hundred meters. As for how deep the deep trench next to it is, Xiang Yang cannot see the bottom, but it is estimated to be at least several thousand meters.
What made Xiang Yang stop was that there was a lot of mud and sand accumulated above the fault layer of the deep canyon, and lush seaweed and seagrass grew on some of the mud and sand.
A large group of crabs were lying leisurely on the mud and sand.
Good job.
A tiger crab as big as Xiang Yang's two palms was staying in a patch of seaweed. It leisurely picked up some seaweed with its two big claws and then put it into its mouth, obviously eating something.
When Xiang Yang saw those tiger crabs, the tiger crabs also saw Xiang Yang, but none of them ran away. Many of them even lifted their shells slightly and raised their two big claws towards Xiang Yang's direction.
A single tiger crab is not scary. They are very timid and will hide in cracks in rocks or under the sand. Any slight movement can scare them away immediately.
But groups of tiger crabs are really ferocious. They dare to attack any creature and even start a racial war.
There used to be a cartoon called Blue Cat's Three Thousand Questions. In one episode, the show was about an endless army of tiger crabs attacking other marine creatures.
In fact, that episode was not about the screenwriter’s imagination, but about the screenwriter adapting a real event.
A long time ago, divers filmed groups of tiger crabs invading other creatures on the seabed.
Xiang Yang once saw a short video of tiger crabs invading the territory of starfish at an ocean forum.
In the video, groups of tiger crabs were fighting with countless starfish, and the ground was littered with broken starfish tentacles, crab legs, and crab claws.
Countless starfish lay limply on the ground, motionless, and countless crabs with missing limbs lay on the seabed with their bellies facing the sky.
The atmosphere gradually began to gather.
Countless tiger crabs raised their large claws and slowly began to move towards Xiang Yang's location, as if they were going to surround Xiang Yang.
Xiang Yang suddenly burst into laughter. He was actually surrounded by a group of crabs.
"That's perfect. These crabs are all quite big. I can catch a few and take them back to try." Xiang Yang thought to himself.
