Grandpa was even more puzzled, and stroked his white beard: "I don't recognize what this fish is either."
Previously, he would go fishing in rivers or streams, and he didn't fish much by the sea. This was because that area of the sea was undeveloped, and basically no one went there. So he just set up an umbrella there and sat there all day.
However, seeing his granddaughter's serious tone, the grandfather quickly said modestly, "I really don't know what kind of fish this is."
Su Zhou took a deep breath and then said, "Grandpa, this fish is a wild large yellow croaker."
Grandpa was puzzled, confused, and bewildered. He shook the red bucket in his hand, and after catching the fish, he added some seawater to keep it alive. "What's wrong with the big yellow croaker?"
This wild yellow croaker looks huge, probably weighing over five pounds.
Grandpa's luck is unbelievable; he seems to encounter all sorts of things.
Su Zhou couldn't even catch an SSR fish while fishing in the game, but her grandfather was so lucky that he caught a wild yellow croaker, and a huge one at that. You should know that a few years ago, a wild yellow croaker weighing more than four pounds sold for more than 200,000 yuan, and the one her grandfather caught was even bigger.
"Grandpa, can you handle this big yellow croaker for me?" Su Zhou wasn't sure if wild yellow croakers could be raised in the wild, but as deep-sea migratory fish, she couldn't understand why her grandfather could catch them by hand... Moreover, these wild yellow croakers have specific requirements for seawater, making them difficult to raise artificially. In short, it wouldn't work for her grandfather.
Grandpa's tone was filled with regret: "I was thinking of showing this fish off, but it seems that's not going to happen now."
Su Zhou's expression was somewhat serious: "This is a wild large yellow croaker, which is an endangered species and is very rare. It's best to give it to me first."
She left with the wild yellow croaker, feeling a bit of a headache. This type of fish is found in the deep sea, and the zoo doesn't have a dedicated aquarium yet, so she was really having a headache.
Looking at the zoo's illustrated guide, I was surprised to find that the first marine creature was highlighted.
Upon closer inspection, the system was incredibly powerful. Su Zhou had brought back the wild yellow croaker that her grandfather had caught, and it was immediately designated as an ornamental fish in the zoo.
"System, this kind of wild large yellow croaker has very high requirements for seawater, and our zoo can't raise it right now. Why did you directly plan to include it in our zoo?" Su Zhou looked at the wild large yellow croaker with a worried expression, not knowing what to do.
I also envy my grandfather's luck.
"Who says zoos can't keep animals? I have a way." The speaker, whose chest lacked any connection to the God-level Zoo System, spoke with undisguised pride.
It seems the system has a solution.
Su Zhou, as if coaxing a child, pretended to be very surprised: "Oh? But I really have no way. So, system, you have a solution. Can you tell me exactly how to raise this big yellow croaker?"
Of course, our system has the technology; this kind of small matter is a piece of cake for us.
As expected of beings from higher planes.
Su Zhou nodded: "Since you're so domineering as to designate wild yellow croaker as your own territory, shouldn't you also be responsible for the technology aspect?"
[The host can search for "water circulation system" in the store interface and purchase related technology.]
With a mix of disbelief and skepticism, Su Zhou opened the shop and nearly fainted when she saw the price. This complete set of breeding equipment was simply too expensive; after buying it, she would have almost no money left in her account.
It's truly astonishing how such a small thing can be sold for such a high price.
"System, are you kidding me? I've been thinking about it, so I'd better just release this thing back into nature." Su Zhou couldn't help but frown. It probably wouldn't cost much to just take a boat and release the wild yellow croaker back into the ocean.
The system, in a soft, cute, synthesized electronic voice, said: "Wait a minute, considering that the host and the system have been working together for half a year and are already very loyal and reliable partners, this device is a gift from the system."
Su Zhou's expression improved a bit. If they really raised such a wild yellow croaker, how would the other animals in the zoo survive? Since the system was free, raising one more fish wouldn't hurt.
However... this delicate creature requires a specialized veterinary team.
Forget it, let's just hire.
There are plenty of talented people these days, so it's always possible to find the right person. Besides, the zoo doesn't actually have a professional veterinary team yet, so Su Zhou directly put the HR department in charge of recruitment.
She then retrieved the relevant equipment from her backpack, including a cryogenic refrigeration unit. The water circulation system was rather complicated to set up, but fortunately, the sea was nearby.
Here, they were raising delicate wild yellow croakers, while Grandpa had already arrived at Grandma's small restaurant in a dashing manner.
It was almost noon when many tourists came to have lunch, and the place was crowded. Fortunately, Su Zhou hired some more people, which relieved the pressure on Grandpa and Grandma.
Grandma took out her notebook. "What would you like to eat?"
Grandpa casually said, "Give me a bowl of noodles."
"We don't have any noodles, so I'll give you a bowl of wontons instead," Grandma said, glancing at him.
When Grandpa came out after finishing his work, Grandpa immediately rushed out the door, shouting, "Guess what?"
Grandpa had been busy for a long time and was exhausted. He wiped his sweat with a white towel, took a sip of tea, and asked, "What's wrong?"
"I caught a big fish, let me show you." Grandpa flipped through the photos in his album to show him the fish, which was so big that the fisherman's eyes turned red.
Many of the other tourists who came to eat were also anglers, and they came over to watch the excitement, inevitably expressing their admiration.
"Wow, bro, that's amazing! This fish is huge. Where did you catch it? You're really lucky."
There's a saying that a fisherman can catch anything except fish.
From small plastic bags and bottles to large pieces of RMB, the cases were directly uncovered. Many of these things were the work of a swindler. At this time, my grandfather sat among them, surrounded by everyone's praise, and was in the limelight for a time.
"I wasn't that lucky. I only caught some whitebait. In the heavily polluted river, I could catch some tilapia. Sigh."
As they were talking, someone suddenly noticed something was wrong. "Brother, I think your fish is a wild yellow croaker. These things are very rare. You... you'd better not keep it and release it back into the wild as soon as possible."
Grandpa's tone was a little sour: "I know that, my granddaughter has already taken that wild yellow croaker away."
"This big yellow croaker must weigh over five pounds. We caught it in nearshore waters... Brother, you're incredibly lucky. By the way, even if it's your granddaughter, you can't handle this fish yourself, can you?"
