Chen Hong could only feign innocence, "I didn't mean to, it's just that you happened to be in this situation."

The fishing company only delivers fish fry once a month. Who knew it would be so unfortunate as to ruin your plans for doing something naughty?

The two arrived at the dock and saw that the fishing company's fishing boat was waiting for Chen Hong.

Chen Hong took Zhou Yi aboard the boat, and under the guidance of the fishery company staff, they counted the number of fish fry.

After confirming that the quantity on the shipment list was correct, they went directly to sea with the fishing company's boat to release the fish fry.

This time, Chen Hong directed the fishing boats of the fishing company to go directly to the underwater forest she had discovered and released the fish fry into the underwater forest.

As long as these fish fry survive, the area of ​​this underwater forest will increase year by year, and the ecological environment of the surrounding waters will get better and better.

This time, Chen Hong went out to sea on a fishing company's boat. She was very happy to see that there were many more fish in the seabed.

After releasing the fish fry, they went straight back to the dock on the boat. Through chatting with the staff, Chen Hong learned that their fishing company was planning to tackle a new project this year.

They are preparing to breed hybrid grouper. Once successful, the new hybrid grouper will have a fast growth cycle, excellent quality, and rich nutrition.

This expensive fish species will gradually become available on the tables of ordinary people, and its price will drop significantly once it can be artificially bred.

They are also cultivating and updating sea cucumber seedlings, hoping that the new sea cucumber varieties can be better adapted to the current resource-scarce marine life, improve the marine biological ecological chain, and incidentally increase the income of coastal fishermen.

Chen Hong admired these researchers; they were a group of people with pure thoughts who worked day and night on their research.

Chen Hong decided to double the amount of fish fry she buys every month, which would not only enrich marine fishery resources but also provide research funding for marine researchers—a win-win situation.

This is far more meaningful than Chen Hong's efforts to find reliable channels for donations.

Chen Hong, coming from a later era, knew that many welfare institutions were just a front for something else.

A large portion of the donations they received from the public was embezzled by staff at all levels.

Very little of the funds are actually used to help the poor and those in need.

Without reliable channels, Chen Hong didn't want to donate a single penny. She didn't want to risk her life in the ocean only to have these social parasites benefit from it.

Having gained a general understanding of the fishery company's current production capacity, Chen Hong decided to place another order after her next trip to sea, purchasing 100,000 yuan worth of fish fry from the company every month.

Zhou Yi witnessed the entire process of releasing the fish fry and learned that Chen Hong had bought the fish fry in her personal capacity. Hearing that she was preparing to place another order and buy even more fish fry, Zhou Yi couldn't help but feel proud.

I was really good at judging people this time; I found this loving woman among millions of people at a glance.

Although she was just an ordinary fisherman, and although she was just a married rural woman with children.

However, her character and moral integrity are infinitely superior to those of most socialites in the capital.

Those children of high-ranking officials spend their days in upscale places, wearing gold and silver, and all they do is compete with each other.

Real estate, jobs, jewelry, clothing, and even men are all tools for them to compare themselves to others.

But despite Chen Hong's wealth, Zhou Yi had never seen her wear a single piece of jewelry or a designer dress.

When he entered her bedroom last night, he found that she didn't even have a single piece of cosmetics.

Even the car she drives is an economical and practical domestic pickup truck. If you don't pay special attention to her, you wouldn't know from any aspect that she is a wealthy person.

She was strict not only with herself but also with her only son. Zhou Yi had seen Yu Yang's collection and realized that she didn't even have a single decent toy.

However, Zhou Yi knew that Chen Hong loved her son very much, and many of the toys in Yu Yang's toy box were made by Chen Hong herself.

Such a dedicated mother understands how to love her child better than those mothers who only talk the talk but walk the walk and buy their children a room full of toys.

According to the I Ching, with such a mother's upbringing, Yu Yang's future is sure to be bright.

I will never become a rich second or third generation like those in Kyoto, numb and indifferent, living a life of debauchery, doing nothing meaningful except idolizing celebrities, sleeping with women, gambling, and doing drugs.

After seeing the fishery company's people off, Chen Hong transferred the payment to their company account, thus completing another transaction for the month.

Chen Hong didn't care that the fish fry they brought were just ordinary, economically valuable fish fry.

Their current scientific research level is not yet sufficient to study more rare fish species. The more of these economically important fish species there are, the more coastal fishermen can be supported, which would be better.

Only a very small minority can truly afford expensive and rare seafood. For ordinary people, being able to regularly eat affordable fish already indicates a fairly good standard of living.

You can't get fat in one bite. As the country develops faster and faster, it is also paying more and more attention to the ocean.

The investment in marine development is increasing year by year, which is something that coastal fishermen are very happy to see.

Back home, it was time to pick up the kids from school. After letting Chen Hong out of the car, Zhou Yi didn't even go through the front door before driving off to town to pick up Yu Yang.
