After the New Year, Xiaoshan Island began to be renovated.
There are three villas on the island, each covering an area of more than 200 square meters, and they are all modern style villas.
The construction speed of modern style villas is fast, and the decoration speed is also fast. If you want to build antique buildings, the construction speed is too slow.
The three villas are all facing the sea and are made of reinforced concrete. The main parts of these three villas cost more than 13 million. Because facing the sea, there may not necessarily be spring flowers blooming... but they will definitely face typhoons.
.
So the materials for the three villas are quite sufficient.
The villa is far away.
Chen Yuan and Chen Yuan live by themselves, one building is given to Chen Xin, and the other is given to Chen Hao and others.
Zhou Jianguo also wants a villa on the island, and he now works for Coral Coast Co., Ltd. Chen Yuan bought him a 95-square-meter land and built a single-story modern style...
There is still a lot of building land on the island. There are 31 single-family buildings that have been declared before. The largest area is 289 square meters and the smallest is 67 square meters.
Then there is also a hotel land.
The hotel covers an area of 13 acres, and the building covers an area of 2,695 square meters. During actual construction, the actual building area can be slightly expanded.
The hotel has not been completed yet, but the land certificates have been issued.
But the restaurant has been built, over there at the yacht pier. The restaurant has two floors, covering an area of 750 square meters, two floors. This should be called a shopping mall...
The mall is on the lee side.
After Little Lightning's corals grow, part of the first floor of the restaurant can be used as a supermarket and part of it can be used as an outdoor supplies store. Only the second floor will be used as a restaurant...
A man-made barrier reef was built outside Xiaoshan Island. Today, the sea water around Xiaoshan Island is calm.
When waves come over and are buffered by the atoll, the waves that wash in are very small.
But it is a pity that there are no beaches around the small mountain island. They are either cliffs or fringing reefs...
After the New Year.
Chen Yuan was busy with everything and concentrated on his work on Xiaoshan Island.
Now Coral Coast Co., Ltd., Chen Yuan is the owner and general manager of the company.
Zhou Sheng, deputy general manager, is mainly responsible for ecology.
Chen Hao and Zhou Jianguo, after the completion of the preliminary project construction of Xiaoshan Island, they were responsible for the business part.
Zhou Jianguo came to work to kill time. He was responsible for the reception work on the island and the shopping mall.
Chen Hao is responsible for the overall operation.
However, the current Xiaoshan Island is still far from being put into operation.
…
After the Chinese New Year, Chen Yuan and Zhou Sheng came to the yacht dock, took out the 7.1-meter tender on the X75, filled up the tank, and headed to Xiaoshan Island.
In February, it was a little hot here in Hainan.
It's quite comfortable with the wind blowing.
"Celebrating the New Year is more tiring than working." Zhou Sheng stretched his waist and said.
"I'm fine, I sleep in at home every day. You guys went out to travel around the island, are you having fun?" Chen Yuan asked.
“It’s not easy to play. There are people everywhere in the scenic spots, so densely packed.”
"Hahaha..." Chen Yuan smiled: "Not to mention that the scenic spot is full of people, during the Chinese New Year, there were many people living in our community."
There are not many people in their community during normal times. Apart from the security guards, there are not many people in sight, and it is deserted.
Chen Yuan's cell phone rang. Chen Yuan drove the boat and slowed down: "Hello."
"I've contacted Tridacna. How much do you want?" The call came from Zhou Jianguo. He was at the South China Sea Oceanographic Research Institute.
"How many." Chen Yuan said.
"There are a lot of clams here. More than 400,000 clams can be sold as seedlings. There are also about 20,000 giant clams that are larger than a fist." Zhou Jianguo said.
"I want it all. Ask me if I can pay it on credit... If I can't pay it on credit, please help me advance the payment first."
"Damn. I've never heard of employees working for the boss and asking for payment in advance." Zhou Jianguo.
"Help me. From now on, when those clams grow up, you can eat them as you like."
"Hmm... let me ask... I can take it on credit. However, the research institute is going to Xiaoshan Island to collect some living coral samples." Zhou Jianguo said.
"How many samples are collected?"
"Bring corals, no more than 10 kilograms in total."
"Tell them that they can come here to collect corals, but I have to cultivate them. Some rare corals can only be collected in small quantities..." Chen Yuan said.
"Liu Suo agreed."
"OK."
Some samples of the living corals Chen Yuan sent back from Fiji were collected by the South China Sea Oceanographic Research Institute. Even the first corals sent back to China last year were sent here.
The living corals Chen Yuan sent back have a very high survival rate and have reproduced once.
Another thing, they also observed that those coral polyps produce limestone very quickly. Limestone is coral stone...
The rapid production of limestone means that the coral grows very quickly. On average, it grows one centimeter per month.
Calculating this, as long as the number of coral polyps is large enough and they can reproduce in large numbers...then if these coral polyps are cultivated in large quantities in Nansha, maybe we can use coral to expand the area of the island.
Many atoll islands in the Pacific are mainly composed of coral skeletons...limestone.
Weber once said that coral reefs are made of once-living material, so you can't see continuous growth.
However, it would take a long, long time, millions or even tens of millions of years, to be created by coral polyps under natural conditions.
But now, there are corals that grow very fast. And the reproduction speed of these coral polyps seems to be very fast. One coral polyp can produce two limestones as thick as chalk in a year. So if there are 100 million coral polyps, one billion
A polyp...and more.
There are so many corals on the bottom of the sea. As long as a wave comes over, the limestone will be washed close to the shore...
Arrive at Xiaoshan Island.
Zhou Sheng took the jellyfish suit on the boat and couldn't wait to jump off.
Chen Yuan also jumped down and dived to the bottom of the sea more than thirty meters.
Arriving at the bottom of the sea, Chen Yuan's scalp felt numb.
This is especially true for Zhou Sheng...
The seabed is densely packed with living, tube-packed coral polyps.
There is a large area here, densely packed and airtight, and the coral polyps are still swinging by themselves, as if they are taking in food.
Corals are marine invertebrates of the phylum Cnidaria and the class Anthozoa.
Characterized by an endoskeleton or exoskeleton of calcareous, horny or leathery. The word coral also refers to the skeletons of these animals, especially those that are calcareous. The body of a coral is composed of 2 germ layers: the outer cell layer is called the ectoderm;
The cell layer is called the endoderm. Between the inner and outer germ layers there is a very thin mesoglea layer with no cell structure.
Food enters through the mouth and food residues are discharged from the mouth. This type of animal has no distinction between head and trunk. It has no nerve center and only has a diffuse nervous system. When it is stimulated by the outside world, the entire animal body responds. Its lifestyle is free-floating or
Fixed bottom habitat.
There are densely packed coral polyps, and the water quality at the bottom of the sea is now particularly clear. Chen Yuan feels that something is wrong with these coral polyps, as if they are particularly hungry...
Chen Yuan built a barrier reef zone for Xiaoshan Island, but it seems that it was not done well. Only one outlet was left, and it was on the leeward side facing the land.
