Chapter 474

Tiger-headed crabs live on the bottom of shallow sea mud and sand, and are distributed in my country's Yellow and Bohai Seas and the southeast coast. They grow very slowly. A tiger-headed crab weighing half a pound needs to grow for three or four years. In recent years, as the environmental pollution of marine beaches becomes increasingly serious, there are fewer and fewer tiger-headed crabs, even fishermen rarely see them.

Xingzai was overjoyed because he knew that whether it was red crab or tiger-head crab, the output is now very rare and has basically become extinct in the offshore areas. Therefore, the market value is high and the wholesale price is more than 100 per kilogram.

And it seems that the number is definitely indispensable! It is indeed necessary to notify the boss if you want to see it! But there is no need to worry now! You can explore this coral group first, and it is not too late to notify after you go up!

Xingzai followed him to dive down around the coral reef island and found that from the area below 100 meters to about 300 meters, there were extremely large groups of crabs living in the reef bushes, and they were not small in size, and any one was a few kilograms in size.

But he didn't stop because if there were so many crabs, he didn't know when he would catch them alone. I guess he couldn't catch many crabs even if they were killed!

And isn’t Xiao Ming still there? If Xiao Ming comes here, I guess all this large group of crabs will be in their pockets!

After all, Xiao Ming is professional about these things, and he is not comparable to those of a layman like himself!

Xingzai was thinking that although there were so many crabs here, he still didn't see that he wanted red coral. It seemed that it was necessary to continue diving.

If I hadn't been wearing a high-tech diving suit, I would probably not have been able to get this distance. It is now a deep sea 300 meters away from the sea. And at such a deep sea, oxygen is also a huge problem. You can't carry more than a dozen bottles of oxygen tanks on your back!

If this is the case, I guess I can't even swim! After all, a bottle of oxygen tank is not light, let alone a dozen bottles.

Xingzai continued to dive and found something after twenty or thirty meters. Some red corals began to appear sporadically between the coral reefs in these places, but they were only a few centimeters high and low. Although they were worth a little money, they were not taken seriously by Xingzai.

Because these red corals don’t have many grams in total! There is no need to waste time on this, so why not continue to see if there are better red corals!

Because he had seen that the more red corals appeared downwards, the darker the color, the larger the individuals, and those places were basically more than 500 meters below the seabed.

I guess a wetsuit without high-tech is definitely not going to reach this depth.

At this time, the importance of high-tech products is reflected. Otherwise, even if you use your hands, what if you can do it, you can only see it, and you can't get it!

If there were diving suits in ancient times, even if they encountered a shipwreck, they would not have been buried at the bottom of the sea! Although it cannot be said that one hundred percent of them were rescued, it would be better than sinking at the bottom of the sea!

Red corals are individual corals that live in groups. The skeletons of red corals are dendritic complexes, and each branch has a keratinous skeleton central axis. The soft body surrounds the skeleton, and many coral polyps grow around the axis. These columnar axes are as high as 20 cm and have a diameter of 3 cm. The soft body of red coral polyps has a medium-glue layer and an endoderm ectoderm second layer of cells.

Red coral polyps secrete bones through the ectoderm - red coral. Rigid colonies grow in all directions on the base column, creating a furry shape.

There are short hemispherical calyxes distributed on the branches, and the polyps that expand the base are white and transparent, with eight small feathers with good antennae. Once the coral is touched, the polyps are retracted in the clove. The cylindrical branches have calcified bone needles, which are radially symmetrical and are short-bar-shaped. The color is usually dark red.

In ancient Romans, corals had the function of preventing disasters and repelling heat. They were closely related to Buddhism. Buddhists in India and Tibet in China regarded red coral as the incarnation of Tathagata Buddha. They used corals as mascots for worshiping Buddha, mostly used as Buddhist beads or decorative statues. They were highly prized jewelry gems.

As the saying goes, "Thousand-year-old corals are red for thousands of years." In the collection world, red corals are considered to be collections with thousands of years of spirituality. As the value of red corals is gradually recognized and the non-renewable nature of red corals is recognized, the price of red corals has been rising. Red corals and pearl amber are ranked as the three major organic gems, and are also listed as one of the seven treasures in the Eastern Buddhist scriptures. Since ancient times, they have been regarded as wealthy and auspicious things.

At this time, Xingzai had already dived to an altitude of about 600 meters below the sea. No one could dive to this depth, because even a high-tech dive wetsuit could dive to this depth. The premise of this is definitely to remove the dive wetsuit that Xiao Hai bought from the live broadcast mall. Because this is no longer something that technology in this era should have! He began to search and pick the red corals in the reefs.

However, at this depth, the smallest red corals growing are ten centimeters tall and weigh about 100 grams. Xingzai did not pick them all. He chose those red corals with a size of more than 20 centimeters. The beads are like a small tree, some are pink and some are blood-red, which are very beautiful.

If all of them are picked, it is not impossible, but I don’t know how long it will take to grow such a big red coral in the future. Moreover, fishermen who go out to sea to catch fish now generally won’t kill them.

Generally speaking, we will catch some big fish or crabs after all. If it is too small, we will release them. In this way, we will not over-fish and lead to the rapid extinction of marine life.

If all marine life will be extinct by then, it is estimated that humans will not be long before they will be extinct.

The audience in the live broadcast room were very envious when they saw this situation! Because if they looked at it now, they were basically red coral! And the smallest one was about ten centimeters.

The weight is at least about one hundred grams! If calculated based on 2,000 yuan per gram, the value of a red coral is as high as 200,000!

"Xingzi, if you lack people, if you don't have enough staff, you can actually recruit me for help. My salary requirement is not high! Just give me a red coral."

"Why not pick all the red corals? In this way, will you be able to harvest more?"

"Sure enough, Xingzi's luck has never disappointed! Just looking at it, the dense red corals are countless! I don't know how many of them are!"
