In the dead of night, Zhou Jimin turned his head and glanced at Ding Qiunan, who had squeezed himself to the bedside, and gently pushed her away.
I barely used any force, not only for fear of waking her up, but also for fear of hurting her.
After getting up, he walked out of the room, went to the study, locked the door, and then entered the space.
In the space, he went directly to the ginseng forest and stared at the rotten ginseng tree.
He still doesn't understand how this ginseng tree grew from the rotten wood, and after so many years, the rotten wood is still just rotten wood, instead of completely falling down and turning into nutrients.
The leaves in full bloom on the top of the rotten wood have nothing to do with ginseng.
Could it be that this is not ginseng at all?
After looking around, Zhou Jimin still didn't quite understand, but he thought of other possibilities.
Ginseng is not a parasitic plant, nor is it symbiotic, so what exactly is this rotten tree?
After thinking about it, he reached out and dug, pushing aside the soil to see what was underneath the rotten wood.
When you peel back the first layer of soil, the first thing you see are the roots.
As he continued on, he was surprised to find that it was really ginseng.
However, there are only a few roots of the rotten wood left, and the rest are ginseng.
Ginseng as thick as a radish, together with rotten wood, support this rotten wood ginseng tree.
About half a meter further down, Zhou Jimin could confirm that this was ginseng.
However, compared with those so-called century-old ginseng, this ginseng is at least a thousand years old.
Zhou Jimin himself didn’t know exactly how long he lived.
Anyway, judging from the huge increase in space, its value exceeds that of many antiques.
He did not continue to dig deeper, but carefully backfilled the soil.
Then I found a lot of rotten leaves and piled them on top of the soil layer of rotten wood ginseng to add nutrients.
Since this rotten ginseng tree is so powerful that it has become an old monster, he will not harm it.
Just let it continue to grow in the space.
Although he doesn't know what the function of such ginseng is, just increasing the space to more than 13,000 acres of land is enough for him to support this guy.
It can be used as a mascot or a treasure that suppresses the space. Anyway, he won't be able to use it for the time being.
In addition to the expansion in area, the small pool of space spring water has also become larger and deeper.
This means that he can use more spatial springs, which is really great news.
Of course, for him, the current space does not make much difference whether it is a thousand acres or ten thousand acres.
After all, the Zhou family doesn’t need that much.
He will no longer do stupid things that are bad for good people, but good deeds can still be done occasionally.
After exiting the space, he has already begun planning for the extra 10,000 acres of farmland.
With more than 13,000 acres of land, there are a lot of things that can be grown.
Set aside those more than 3,000 acres of fields and never touch them again.
These fields are used for ginseng forests, space springs, seafood, poultry, storage, etc.
The remaining 10,000 acres of land should all be used for farming. You can grow anything. It can’t be wasted anyway.
From now to the 1980s, there are still at least sixteen years.
Therefore, he can only grow one kind of food now, instead of doing something else.
In the study, he thought for a long time, and finally threw the written plan back into space, then went back to hug his wife and continue to sleep.
In the next few days, his life was no different from usual.
I just go to the Pigeon Market every morning and tinker with weird things.
Grain from 10,000 acres of land will not be produced so quickly and will have to wait.
He is just preparing in advance, rather than working in vain.
Early that morning, as soon as the staff opened the door of the supply and marketing cooperative, they saw a strange ox cart parked at the door.
Why is it strange?
Because this ox cart is very big and is pulled by two big oxen. Such majestic oxen are rare in the entire capital.
Too strong.
"Comrade, you have finally opened the door. I have brought a cart of seafood, will you accept it?"
Next to the bullock cart was an old man with a white beard wearing a straw hat. When he spoke, a fishy smell hit his nostrils.
I almost made the staff smoke in the face.
"What seafood?"
"It's just ordinary seafood. It wasn't long after it was fished out of the sea and it was frozen with ice cubes. It's very fresh."
As he spoke, the old man enthusiastically lifted the straw covering the seafood loaded on the carriage.
The inner layer of quilt is exposed, and then the ice cubes and seafood in the foam box.
The staff took a look at it several times. Although it smelled fishy, the seafood was real.
It doesn’t have the smell of stinky seafood.
In other words, this seafood is edible!
"Is this fish really edible?"
Although it was generally confirmed, the staff still asked casually.
The old man laughed and took out a piece of seafood from the foam box. Without thinking, he took out a knife from his body, then raised the knife and quickly pulled out a thin fillet from the fish. Then, he used the knife to put the fish fillet into his mouth.
While eating, he smiled and asked, "It's very fresh and delicious. Do you want to try it?"
These seafood are all seafood in space.
The seawater in the seafood pond has a standard depth of fifty meters, and there are a lot of seafood in it.
Given the time difference between space and reality, if Zhou Jimin hadn't been expanding underground and expanding around from time to time, and selling some seafood from time to time, the space would have been overrun with seafood.
The staff gave up in disgust and did not eat the seafood.
"Wait a moment and I'll ask the leader."
Soon, the leader came out and let the old man perform a show before collecting the car of seafood.
With such a large cart of seafood, the residents of nearby streets are in great demand.
Zhou Jimin, who had sold a cart of seafood, pulled the carriage out of the city. Within half an hour, he went to several nearby pigeon markets and sold several carts of seafood.
There is no way, he now needs to ship a large amount of goods and clear out the inventory in the space.
In recent times, due to his large-scale shipments, residents near the capital have been blessed.
You can often buy seafood.
It's not that there was no seafood in the past, but the variety wasn't abundant. The key is that it wasn't that fresh.
Seafood is flooding into the market in large quantities and is sold in several supply and marketing cooperatives.
The leader of the food management department directly called the driver responsible for seafood transportation and asked what was going on?
The driver was also confused. Who knew there was suddenly so much seafood in the capital?
They didn't find out what the situation was, so they sent someone to wait and prepare to guard Zhou Jimin.
Unfortunately, Zhou Jimin only cooperated with the supply and marketing cooperative once and then ran away.
He doesn’t have such a large supply of seafood, so he just runs away when it’s sold out.
In a few days it will be the day of the ghost market, so Zhou Jimin planned to go to Jincheng that night and plan to go out to sea.
In order to be back in time for dawn, after leaving the city, he took out the off-road vehicle he had bought on the island and sped away.
Not to mention, over the past few years, the road connecting the two places has finally become much smoother.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the capital also received many steam-powered road smoothing vehicles. The only function of such vehicles was to smooth the roads.
However, because it is an old antique of steam, its low efficiency is obvious.
Now that the road is smooth, Zhou Jimin can drive much faster.
After more than an hour, we finally arrived at the beach.
He went out to sea today purely to verify one thing, that is, catching fish in space.
Putting the off-road vehicle back into space, he went straight to the shallows of the sea, and with a whoosh, he took out a small sampan.
The small sampan is a speedboat he built in space using wood.
The propeller and motor are very simple. After all, he is an engineering researcher. As long as he has the drawings and is willing to spend time, he can still make them.
This small sampan has been tested in space. The motor is fine and the propeller can push the small sampan quickly.
Arriving at a distance of more than twenty nautical miles from the seaside, looking at the pitch-black sea, to be honest, I was still a little scared.
He took a deep breath and then plunged into the sea.
The time he can hold his breath in the water is only five or six minutes longer than ordinary people, about eight minutes, which is not as good as those more powerful professional divers.
I won’t talk about the world record for the longest time to hold one’s breath underwater for twenty-two minutes.
Professional-level divers can generally improve their breath-holding time in the water through lung capacity training.
Generally speaking, ordinary people can hold their breath for about thirty seconds to one minute in the water.
People who train their vital capacity can generally achieve one or two minutes, or even three or four minutes.
For those more powerful professional divers, it takes about ten minutes.
Not to mention those children who often live at the beach and play in the water. It is very casual for children who grow up in such a place to hold their breath for five or six minutes.
Zhou Jimin swam in the water for a few minutes and finally saw a school of fish.
Immediately, without saying a word, he directly controlled the current sea water and directly filled it with sea water according to the huge space of 10,000 acres of fields in the space.
Whoa!
A huge space fault suddenly appeared in the sea, and everything in the fault, such as the sea water and the sea fish, disappeared instantly.
A vacuum zone was formed.
Then soon, sea water from other places rushed in and it was filled immediately.
The sea water that just entered the space was all frozen.
Zhou Jimin also appeared. Looking at the fish inside, he was extremely happy.
This method of fishing is simply cheating.
Give those marine creatures a devastating blow.
Fortunately, he currently only has 10,000 acres of farmland, which is not much.
After observing for a while, he quickly controlled the power of space to separate the sea water and sea fish.
Most of the seawater was sent to the ocean outside the space by him, and the remaining part of the seawater and all the sea fish were sent directly to the seafood lake.
"Well, there are still too few good seafood. They are all ordinary fish and of little value."
Just after saying that it was of no value, he suddenly remembered that maybe he could get some tuna to raise, and these ordinary seafood could be used as tuna rations.
However, tuna is a deep-sea fish and will die when it comes ashore, so it is impossible to buy live fish in the market.
Based on this situation, he can only catch it by himself.
In this area of the Bohai Sea, there may be tuna, but there will never be bluefin tuna.
"Damn it, it seems that if you have time, you need to build an ocean-going yacht and go out to sea to fish."
In order to eat the best seafood and enrich the menu in the kitchen at home, Zhou Jimin also worked hard.
Of course, the main reason is that he has nothing to pursue now and can only work hard on his appetite.
Top-quality seafood such as king crab, blue lobster, red hair crab, large yellow croaker, rat spot, etc. These are all world-famous delicacies.
Thinking of this, Zhou Jimin couldn't help but drool.
After coming out of the space, he immediately started to hold his breath again, and then swam around on the seabed, looking for fish schools.
The offshore waters were basically finished by the nearby fishermen, so he searched around and found no delicious seafood.
There were only a few large yellow croakers weighing only one or two kilograms, which were probably little ones that got separated from the school of fish, but he didn't take them in.
Originally, he wanted to look for it to see if it was possible to find a school of large yellow croaker.
As a result, he wandered around the bottom of the sea for more than an hour, but he couldn't find it.
In the end, he had no choice but to come out to the sea, find his sampan again, and continue driving to the open sea.
After searching around the open sea, he came across several sharks chasing a school of small fish. He didn't think much and just chased them.
The so-called artistic master is bold, even if he is in the sea, he is not afraid.
When we reach this sea area, the depth of the seabed is at least a few hundred meters.
When you look at the bottom of the sea, you see a bottomless abyss.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Quite scary.
However, Zhou Jimin didn't pay attention to this at all, he just focused on catching sea fish.
I haven’t encountered tuna, but I have encountered a lot of blue crabs, abalone, etc. These are all very good seafood.
These seafood are very good. Even if you don’t eat them yourself, they are very good as food for other farmed animals.
During the chase, the school of fish failed to catch up, but instead encountered a group of large yellow croakers.
There are not many large yellow croakers, only about a few hundred, but most of them weigh about four or five kilograms, and there are a few big fish weighing more than ten kilograms.
Seeing this shoal of fish, Zhou Jimin didn't say anything, got closer and started to collect them.
Entering the space and looking at the more than three hundred large yellow croakers in front of him, he smiled happily.
Then, more than fifty of them and two large yellow croakers weighing four to five kilograms were put outside together with the sea water.
You can’t cook it all in one pot, you have to leave some seeds.
In fact, during this period of time, the fish stocks in the waters near us suffered a devastating blow.
Around the 1960s, fishermen along the coast of the mainland adopted the method of "knocking bamboo", constantly knocking bamboo boards tied to their boats to drive away fish schools for fishing.
Coupled with the large-scale round-up of wintering grounds, the large yellow croaker resources are almost exhausted.
Of course, extinction fishing still occurred in the 1970s, and since the 1980s, the large yellow croaker has almost disappeared.
It was also at that time that, coupled with the reopening, the price of large yellow croaker rose again and again.
Then, since it went up, the price has basically not fallen down.
Large yellow croaker is an economical fish, with tender and delicious meat and rich in protein. It is a very high-quality seafood and is the most loved by fishermen.
In this era, no one has any ideas about protecting fish resources, protecting the environment, and developing sustainably.
Many people are running out of food, so how can we talk about sustainable development?
So, let’s just fill our stomachs and then talk about other things.
Putting the large yellow croaker into the seafood lake in space, Zhou Jimin returned to the sea again.
He took a look at the time just now, and it was already past three in the morning. He planned to go back at four o'clock.
However, he had just emerged from the sea and was going to find his own sampan and continue driving outside for a while.
Unexpectedly, my small sampan was actually taken away by another fishing boat.
Fishing boat?
Since when are there fishing boats?
From hundreds or thousands of meters away, Zhou Jimin couldn't see clearly what kind of fishing boat it was.
So I can only swim under the water to see.
After he got closer, he revealed his head on the sea surface and listened to the chattering of foreign languages.
He was immediately surprised. Isn’t this the Bohai Sea? Where did the foreigners come from?
In fact, the current Bohai Sea is not yet our inland sea.
According to the current world coastline division standard, the territorial sea range is three nautical miles, which is determined with reference to the cannon range of Western countries.
Our great men asked naval officers, How far can our cannons fire?
Twelve nautical miles!
Therefore, twelve nautical miles is the territorial sea range in this era.
Based on this range, the Bohai Sea is really not our inland sea.
In later generations, the international standard territorial sea range was two hundred nautical miles, and the distance was about 370 kilometers.
At that time, the Bohai Sea was our inland sea.
But, even so, no one should dare to come to Bohai.
Zhou Jimin was extremely frightened after careful consideration, and immediately did not dare to act rashly, but continued to lurk under the sea.
After getting close to the fishing boat, he discovered that there was a trawl net at the bottom of the fishing boat.
He immediately became angry.
Damn it!
Trawling, a destructive fishing method, is a devastating blow to marine life.
In later generations, this method of trawl fishing will definitely be prohibited in offshore waters.
You can only trawl deep sea areas.
The deep sea is generally the high seas.
Even so, most of the fish in the ocean have suffered a devastating blow to extinction due to overfishing.
There are even several species of fish that have become extinct.
"You came all the way here to fish in the Bohai Sea? And you still resort to such tactics? That's too much."
When he was angry, Zhou Jimin swam directly to the trawl without thinking too much.
Then cut the trawl rope directly, and fish everything together with the trawl net directly into the space.
Then, he quickly processed the extra sea water and threw all the fish in the trawl net into the lake.
After doing this, he immediately left the space, swam to the bottom of the fishing boat, and began to board the boat.
He understood just now that these are not small days, but South Koreans.
Therefore, he was not merciful, and he used all his skills with his sword. After finishing the work, he sent it to the space to be used as fertilizer.
As for the fishing boat, of course he took it over without ceremony.
