"So, did you get a lot of material?"
Su Ran was extremely satisfied, holding her camera and notebook. "So many, so comprehensive."
Everyone was here today. Su Ran not only asked Jiang Wanghai a lot of questions about aquaculture, but also learned a lot about the incentive measures for aquaculture from Zhao Gang.
She also talked about the experiences of Fu Ming, Fu Liang, Fu Haiyang, and other people involved in aquaculture. She even asked several villagers who were just watching the fun if they had any plans to develop aquaculture areas after witnessing such a bumper harvest.
The answer is definitely yes, without a doubt. After she returns, the city's newspapers will feature detailed reports about seafood farming.
When fishermen with the means see such deeds, many will surely respond to the policy of aquaculture, which is exactly what Zhao Gang and his ilk want to see!
After the scallop and shrimp fishing activity ended, Jiang Wanghai took Fu Ming, Fu Liang and others for a stroll at sea.
Seeing that the fishing activity did not affect the other fish from feeding, he was relieved.
Lunch will definitely be at Fu Wan's house. Not only are Ye Xiaocui, Jiang Chunlan, and Qin Anning busy at home, but even Fu Qing's mother, Wang Xiuer, has come to help.
So when Fu Wan and the others returned, lunch was just ready. After a morning of hard work, everyone was starving and ate to their hearts' content.
"Ah Wan, I have to go back to the city research institute this afternoon. If nothing unexpected happens, there should be new progress on the sea cucumber side in the next couple of days."
However, I have a suggestion regarding the aquaculture area; I don't know if you'd like to hear it.
At the dinner table, Jiang Wanghai looked at Fu Wan and said something. Upon hearing this, Fu Wan immediately stopped eating and pretended to listen.
"Uncle Jiang, please speak, I'm listening."
Jiang Wanghai frowned deeply; he had been thinking about this all the way here.
"As you know, our breeding scale is actually quite large."
We've caught so many scallops and shrimp today, it's quite a commotion. I think you should send more people to keep an eye on the aquaculture area, otherwise something bad could easily happen.
After saying that, he added two more sentences, worried that Fu Wan might misunderstand.
"I'm not saying we should be wary of people from our village. Most people in Fu Family Village are kind-hearted. But with so much seafood, I'm afraid some people from nearby villages might have bad intentions."
"We only have about half a month left before we can harvest most of the seafood. We need to be careful and make sure nothing goes wrong."
Fu Wan nodded upon hearing this.
In some ways, Jiang Wanghai and she were thinking the same thing.
She had thought of this when the salvage operation first started.
In the past, when villagers asked about the aquaculture area, Fu Ming, Fu Liang, Fu Laoda, and others would just laugh it off.
The real reason is that I'm afraid someone might be jealous and try to cause trouble.
Fortunately, in the past six months, the only incident was Yu Guixiang instigating her grandson to catch fish. In addition, Fu Wan insisted on making them pay compensation without showing any leniency, which served as a warning to others.
Seeing how expensive the fish fry were, even those with malicious intentions were too frightened to act afterward.
After all, not only would they lose money, but Boss Fu and Fu Ming were also not easy to mess with.
Even though they usually keep a low profile, everyone has now witnessed the grand scale of the aquaculture area.
Today, they hauled so much seafood from the aquaculture area; the scallops alone piled up into several small mountains. Such a visual feast is a tempting sight for some people with ill intentions.
If she can't catch any fish at sea, the net cages are full of them. If someone with bad intentions tries to steal them, Fu Wan will definitely suffer a great loss.
Fu Wan had also thought of this, so she originally planned to discuss it with Boss Fu and Village Chief Fu after lunch, and then select a few young and strong men from the village to patrol the aquaculture farm.
Of course, the wages will definitely not be low, but the people to be sent there will have to be carefully selected.
Not only must one be bold and resilient, but also meticulous and observant.
"Uncle Jiang, I understand. I was planning to discuss it with my father after dinner. Don't worry, I will definitely arrange for people to take good care of the aquaculture area."
"You thought of that too? Then I'm relieved."
Jiang Wanghai was overjoyed. Since Fu Wan said so, he returned to the research institute with peace of mind.
After lunch, Fu Wan asked Fu Ming to drive Jiang Wanghai and the others to the station.
She then called over Boss Fu and Village Chief Fu to discuss security issues in the aquaculture area with them.
If nothing unexpected happens, she will have to go to Hong Kong in a few days, and it will take at least a week for her to return.
Fu Laoda had been busy all day and was so happy about the bountiful harvest of seafood that he was a little dizzy. But when Fu Wan solemnly brought up the matter of preventing theft in the aquaculture area, he immediately sobered up a bit.
Yes, there are still so many fish in the sea that haven't been caught yet, and they're all valuable.
The villagers might not have bad intentions, but there are five or six villages in this area, who knows if someone might sneak over to steal fish!
Fu Laoda immediately became nervous and thought of all the men in the village, but in the end, he couldn't think of anyone who could take full responsibility for this matter.
Village Chief Fu was also in a dilemma. It was easy to select a few men to help keep watch, but the difficulty lay in finding a leader.
At this moment, Village Chief Fu only regretted that he was too old. If he were ten years younger, he would have taken on this matter without hesitation, and Fu Wan would not have needed to worry.
"Ah Wan, how about I go keep an eye on things?"
Boss Fu rubbed his face and made up his mind.
"After thinking it over, I think I'm the most suitable person to lead this role."
“Your brother and the others have to go out to sea again in a few days, so they definitely won’t have time to take care of things. It just so happens that I was originally planning to stay at home next year instead of going out to sea, so going to the aquaculture area is also a way of arranging my work in advance.”
"Father, you're not going to sea anymore? Have you thought it through?"
Fu Wan was a little surprised. In fact, she had wanted to persuade Boss Fu to take a break for a long time, but Boss Fu was very enthusiastic about going to sea. In the past, when Fu Wan and Ye Xiaocui tried to persuade him, he would not listen.
Boss Fu gave a wry smile and sighed.
"I can't help but think it through. I want to go out to sea with you every day, but this old body of mine won't allow it!"
Boss Fu was indeed very enthusiastic about going to sea, especially after he became a ghost in his previous life, when he couldn't even touch the rudder of a ship.
So he cherished his life after returning, spending every time he went to sea in the cockpit.
But in reality, one can't deny the effects of aging. After returning from this voyage, Boss Fu himself clearly felt much more tired than before.
Because he had been driving the ship in the cockpit for a long time, his back was in a lot of pain. When he came back the day before yesterday, he almost couldn't get out of bed in the morning. Ye Xiaocui found the medicinal wine that her father had left behind when she got married and applied a lot of it to Fu Laoda.
After recovering, Ye Xiaocui kept asking Boss Fu to stay at home with her. Although Boss Fu didn't want to, he was also planning to wait until the end of the year before leaving the fleet.
