It was March, and the weather was getting warmer. It wasn't as difficult to get out of bed as it was in the middle of winter.
Zhang Zian yawned and sat up from his bed.
He had been very busy these past few days, running around all day. He had to go to the 4S store and the building materials market to customize aquariums. There was almost no time for him to rest.
There were a lot of things to buy, and a lot of things to do. He even had to go to a specialized gas company to buy carbon dioxide cylinders for the calcium reactor. Sometimes, he would remember that he had forgotten to buy something when he got home, so he had to turn around and leave …
Not only did he have to buy things, but he also had to apply for a permit — an Aquatic Wildlife Operation and Utilization Permit. Without this permit, he couldn't raise, breed, or sell aquarium creatures.
The permit wasn't easy to get. In theory, even if it was possible, it couldn't be done right away. However, he had become famous because of Famous. After getting a letter of introduction from the neighborhood committee, the relevant department quickly applied for the permit for him.
It wasn't easy to get the permit. He bought a car, negotiated the size and price of the aquarium, and basically bought everything else that he needed to buy himself. Finally, he could stay in the shop and rest for a while.
Not only did he have to be busy during the day, but he also had to be busy at night. He had to buy a microscope to observe the quality of the bacteria house and bottom sand, and then choose the one that he was most satisfied with. The next day, he sent Wang Qian and Li Kun to the fish market to pick up the goods.
In addition, he had to take care of the newly bought corals, so that they could adapt to the new environment as soon as possible and grow strong.
Every type of coral needed different light intensity and water temperature. Even if two types of corals had similar growth conditions, he had to be careful if one of them was more aggressive, and if it would harm the other …
In addition, the ugly coral that was identified as a rosette coral had always bothered him.
Ever since he had bought it, he had once again flipped through related books and looked up relevant information. However, he always felt that this thing was similar to a rosette coral, especially after observing it through a microscope. Some of the details were different.
However, there were many species of rosette coral, and he wasn't sure if this was one of the rarer ones. After all, when it came to raising corals, he was only an armchair strategist.
Since he wasn't completely sure, he didn't dare to raise this ugly coral as a rosette coral. To be on the safe side, he equipped it with a moderately strong water current, moderately weak light, set the temperature at 25 degrees Celsius, and fed it liquid coral food. This might not be the most suitable growth conditions, but it was the most adaptable.
Due to the careful care, the ugly coral and the other corals successfully adapted to the new environment and began to grow. The ugly coral's growth was relatively slow.
Every day, he used a magnifying glass to observe the growth of the corals through the wall of the tank, especially this ugly coral. Perhaps it was because he hoped that it could transform into a beautiful white swan like the ugly duckling. After all, he had spent 50 yuan on it. Otherwise, it would have been a big loss!
The batch of high-end aquarium equipment shipped from Germany was a great help, and the technological content was breathtaking.
For example, a light and temperature controller from GHL needed to be installed on the computer and had to go through many complicated settings before it could be used.
However, on the other hand, as long as the settings were correct, not only could it control the light to simulate the intensity of sunlight, the phases of the moon, the thickness of the clouds, but it could even use a high-brightness flash to illuminate the bottom of the water at night to simulate the lightning that streaked across the sky … It could almost perfectly simulate the lighting conditions in the natural environment, and simulating the temperature changes during the day and night was not a problem. If it detected any abnormalities, it would automatically give an alarm. Of course, the price was also astoundingly high.
Spending money on the equipment was worth it. To do a good job, one must first sharpen their tools. It could save time and increase the survival rate of precious creatures.
Galaxy heard the sound of him putting on his clothes and woke up. It rubbed its cheek with its front paw, yawned, and jumped out of the crib energetically. It was afraid of waking up the other elfins, so it silently opened its mouth and made a "good morning" sign. It then opened the bedroom door and ran outside excitedly.
"Good morning, Galaxy," he also said silently.
Usually, Galaxy would run downstairs to play hide-and-seek with the kittens as soon as it woke up, but recently, it seemed to be fascinated by the mysterious underwater world. After waking up, it would always go to the bedroom next door to look at the corals before going downstairs.
For the convenience of taking care of them, Zhang Zian put the corals he bought in his parents' bedroom. His own bedroom did not have enough space, and the light from the corals would affect the elfins' rest.
When the corals were a little bigger, he would move them to the aquarium. Maybe he could try to breed them.
The basket hammock chair made a slight squeaking sound.
Pi also woke up. It jumped down from the hammock chair, then jumped onto the swivel chair and turned on the computer.
It was not in a hurry to start writing its novel. Instead, it first browsed the website to see what new popular novels were on the website, then clicked on the beginning. If it was interesting, it would try to read it for a while.
Ever since it started writing novels, it could no longer spend the whole day reading novels as it used to. No matter how interesting a novel was, it could only read the beginning and then add it to the bookshelf, hoping that one day when it was free, it could enjoy reading it to its heart's content.
Zhang Zian did not ask how long it planned to write the novel. If it was written according to his life, wouldn't it never end? Maybe it would be able to write until the day the website closed down.
After all, he was confident that he could live for 200 years. If he borrowed another 500 years from the heavens, he could live for a total of 700 years!
Even if he died of old age in 700 years, he could still continue to write about his descendants. After writing about his sons, he could write about his grandchildren. His children and grandchildren would be endless!
Of course, he had to put finding a girlfriend on the agenda!
He was not a hermaphrodite, and he did not have the ability to split and replicate himself.
After putting on his clothes, he felt that something was not quite right today. Why was Richard, who was usually grinding its teeth, snoring, or kicking its legs in the morning, so quiet?
He opened the small blanket to take a look. He did not know when Richard had crawled out.
Suddenly, something fell on his head.
His vision went black, and part of his vision was blocked.
What the hell?
He hurriedly pulled the thing off his head. Judging from the feel of it, it seemed to be a smooth strip of cloth.
He pulled a light blue bikini trunks off the bed.
That was strange. Hadn't he already put the trunks away?
He looked at the wardrobe. The door of the wardrobe was half closed, leaving a gap. It seemed that he had forgotten to close it last night.
Just then, Richard's voice came from above his head. "Ga ga! Pass the ladies' clothes to the boss! "
