Nine Hundred. Mass Production of Black Pearls

happy weekend! Please vote for the monthly and recommended tickets before going out to play, it will be more enjoyable****

"I just have a cold, so I'm going to go to sea?" Shaq asked strangely, "It's not necessary, is it? In fact, everything in the fishing ground is normal. There will be big waves from time to time in winter, and no one comes to our fishing ground to steal fish. I think you can rest a bit."

Qin Shiou didn't really want to inspect the fishing grounds, he had other things to do, and just as the fishermen couldn't go to sea with him, he was going to do this.

What he has to do is to plant pearl cores for the black butterfly shells to speed up their production of pearls.

Since the rumors of the ghost ship Huahu appeared, the fishing grounds have quieted down, and the number of fish piracy ships has dropped significantly. However, many people take boats to the surrounding waters to see if they can encounter ghost ships.

Qin Shiou was worried that something might go wrong, so he didn't let the Huahu attack again for more than a month, and it would be troublesome if someone found out.

Without the fish-stealing boat, the biggest problem of the Daqin Fishing Ground has been solved, and Qin Shiou has nothing to worry about.

After not managing the fishery for a long time, Qin Shiou now controls the sea god's consciousness into the sea, even instilling sea god's energy into aquatic plants, seaweed and precious sea products, which is considered easy.

After sailing into the sea, Qin Shiou looked up at the sky. The weather was fine, and it finally stopped snowing.

Tigers and leopards followed the boat as usual, and this time Xiong Da also came. Since he found out that he can swim, Xiong Daozi has become fatter, and he no longer has any fear of the ocean.

Qin Shiou put down the fishing rod, and after a while, he harvested a golden-eyed bream. The flesh of this kind of fish is very tender. He pulled the fish to clean it, and simply roasted it in the oven and handed it to Xiong Da.

Xiong Da held it in his fat paw and stuffed it into his mouth. Huzi and Leopard smelled the scent and moved over to get a share, but Xiong Da immediately swallowed the fish down his throat.

A big fish of more than 30 centimeters, after chewing twice, swallowed it with a 'gudong'!

Qin Shiou then caught another calamari. He put some sauce on it and roasted it in the oven until it was half-ripe. Take it out and divide it into several slices for Huzi and Leopard. Xiong Da licked his face and wanted to share a bite. Huzi and Leopard pressed the squid slices with their paws and refused to share with Xiong Da.

Slowly, the boat reached the waters of the coral reef, and Qin Shiou took out an iron box that he had prepared. Tie it with a fishing line and carefully put it on the coral reef.

This iron box contains pearls, of course the most common white pearls, which are worthless.

Qin Shiou online shopping. I bought five kilograms online for four hundred Canadian dollars!

Of course, these small pearls are of no value, they are very small, and they are usually used to make pearl necklaces. Every coastal city in Canada has a bunch of these pearl necklaces for sale, specially designed to fool tourists from other places.

But for Qin Shiou, this thing is useful enough. Anyway, he just used it as a pearl core to make counterfeit black pearls.

There are many ways to classify pearls, one of which is according to the cause of production. Divided into nucleated pearls and non-nucleated pearls.

Seedless pearls are when the outer skin of the mantle of shellfish is pathologically stimulated, part of the cells undergo cell division and then separate, and then they are coated with organic substances secreted by themselves, and gradually sink into the connective tissue of the mantle to form pearl sacs and then pearls.

For nucleated pearls, the mantle of the shellfish enters the foreign body. Such as sand, parasites and the like, after being stimulated. Epidermal cells with foreign bodies as nuclei are trapped in the connective tissue of the mantle.

so. The epidermal cells of the part of the mantle that have sunk in will divide by themselves to form a pearl sac, and the cells of the pearl sac secrete nacre, which covers the nucleus layer by layer, and this is a nucleated pearl.

There is no doubt that non-seeded pearls are more valuable than nucleated pearls because the production process is longer and more difficult.

What Qin Shiou wanted to do was to make pearls with nuclei, artificially. Of course, this is not the same as artificial cultured pearls, so these are called counterfeit pearls.

He had checked the technology of artificially cultured pearls from the Internet before. This technology is very popular in Australia and Southeast Asian waters, and the process is complicated: workers cut small pieces of live epithelial cells from the mantle of pearl-growing mussels, and plant them together with artificial nuclei prepared from mussel shells. into the mussel mantle connective tissue.

The implanted cell pieces rely on the nutrition provided by the connective tissue, rapidly proliferate around the artificial nucleus, and can form pearl sacs, which secrete nacre, thereby producing artificial nucleated pearls.

Qin Shiou didn't have time to cut small pieces of epithelial cells. He cheated. After the iron box containing the pearls fell on the coral reef, it fell directly, and pearls rolled out.

Later, he found a squid the size of a palm. There are small suction cups on the squid's claws. He sucked a pearl in this way, found a black butterfly shell, controlled it to open, put the pearl in, and input the Seagod's energy.

The perception of black butterfly shells is very strong, especially after absorbing the consciousness of the sea god, they are eager to grow, and finally feel a foreign body in their body, so they transfer it to the mantle, and secrete nacre to wrap it .

In a month at most, black pearls can be produced, and the pearls are absolutely round and shiny.

According to the size of the black butterfly shell, Qin Shiou put in a dozen or twenty large ones, one or two small ones, and put thousands of small pearls into the black butterfly shell.

Looking at the black butterfly shells scattered around, Qin Shiou felt quite emotional in his heart. He has a lot of ways to make money. If he can't change his ambition, what kind of sea god should he be?

Thinking about it this way, Qin Shiou himself despises himself. Those who have ambitions set up long-term ambitions, and those without ambitions often set up ambitions. He is too unambitious, so what is money? No, I have to be the God of the Sea!

He strengthened his ambition. There are many rich people on the earth, but how many people have supernatural powers? And his abilities are so powerful!

I want to control the ocean, I want to cross the seven seas, I want to be the king of the ocean!

Facing the sea, Qin Shiou was in high spirits for a moment. He spread the sea god's energy and poured a lot of power into the coral reef where the black butterfly shell was located, so as to speed up the harvest.

The sea god consciousness is patrolling around, even in winter, the biological activities in the coral reef waters are still very frequent, but the reproduction speed of coral polyps has dropped a lot.

Wandering around, Qin Shiou suddenly found a queen crab appearing on the bottom of the sea.

Queen crab is another name for snow crab. Qin Shiou plans to raise large-scale seafood in the next step. There are not many fishing grounds now, and he always thought that there were not many.

However, after discovering this queen crab population, he continued to inspect, and was immediately surprised.

Damn, aren't there not many queen crabs? Why is there such a dense underwater world here, full of these guys? !

A large number of queen crabs are clustered together and crawling on the bottom of the sea. The small ones are only the size of a fingernail, and the big ones are the size of a plate. They are estimated to weigh two to three kilograms.

Two or three kilograms doesn't seem like much, but the legs of queen crabs are very long. Even if they are not as good as spider crabs, when they spread their legs, they are scary enough!

Qin Shiou looked at the group of migrating crabs in astonishment, where are they going? ! (to be continued)
