Chapter 729 Almost Scared to Pee

Paul, a water quality testing expert and a young nerd, raised his head from the computer screen when he heard Carl's voice.

"Paul, come and meet me, this is the colleague from China that my daughter Reina mentioned, his name is Jeff Zhang, and this is his dog Femas, this is a wonderful dog, he starred in the movie It's being screened at the Berlin Film Festival, maybe it can win some awards..." Karl introduced.

"Uh, hello, I've heard of you!" Paul greeted Zhang Zian shyly, and then waved his hand to Femas, "Hello, Femas! I heard that your movie is great, if It’s not that I can’t get away here, I also really want to go to Berlin to watch a movie.”

Femas called out energetically as a greeting.

"Hello! Nice to meet you!" Zhang Zian walked over to shake hands with Paul. From Carl's solemn introduction, he knew that this nerdy expert played a pivotal role in the aquarium.

When Paul shook hands, he found that he was still wearing disposable rubber gloves, so he quickly took them off.

After exchanging pleasantries, Paul learned of Zhang Zian's intention to come, and enthusiastically explained to him the water quality testing platform he was in charge of.

Water quality is the foundation of fish farming, especially seawater fish, which involves water temperature, salinity, specific gravity, ph value, nitrite, nitrate, silicate, phosphate, carbon dioxide, iron, calcium and magnesium Multiple factors such as the hardness formed by the interaction of ions have much higher requirements than freshwater fish. It is a complex system engineering that often discourages novices.

The table of the water quality testing table is very messy, with test tubes, measuring cups, catheters, electronic test pens, hydrometers, test papers, reagents, and a large number of drugs and unnamed equipment, which almost occupy the entire table. The things were marked in German, and Zhang Zian didn't know a single word.

Paul's introduction was very enthusiastic, but Zhang Zian's English level was limited to daily conversations, and he was timid when it came to these technical terms, and he was confused after listening for a long time.

Carl saw his embarrassment, and interjected: "Paul, stop, our guest has just arrived, don't worry, let him take a look first."

Zhang Zian has exactly this intention. Although the content of the water quality test is complicated, there are actually rules to follow, or a routine, just like if/else in computer language. He does not seek to refine the principles, but only needs to learn how to operate the instrument, how to analyze the value and how to adjust the water quality.

However, before he returned to Binhai City to inherit the pet shop, he also visited some aquariums in other big cities. None of those aquariums had a special water quality testing platform, let alone a water quality testing expert. professional gap.

The overall scale of the German pet market is far less than that of China, but the degree of professionalism and segmentation is at least ten years ahead of China.

In addition, the aquarium equipment made in Germany is famous all over the world, but the equipment alone is not enough, the key lies in the people who operate the equipment, just like photography cannot be done well only with the equipment.

Paul smiled shyly, and said to Zhang Zian, "Okay, you can come to me anytime you need it."

"Thank you." Zhang Zian nodded gratefully to him, determined to learn as much as possible in the next few days, as long as he learned 30% to 40% of Paul's skills, it should be enough to manage his own aquarium.

Carl took out two cans of cold beer from the refrigerator behind the water quality testing platform, and threw one of them to Zhang Zian, "Let's go, I'll show you around, if you have any questions, just ask."

Looking around, in the dark aquarium, except for the entrance, the other three walls are filled with aquariums of different sizes. Some aquariums only plant aquatic plants, some aquariums have corals, and more All kinds of fish are kept in the aquarium, presenting a bizarre underwater world.

Compared with freshwater fish, seawater fish are more colorful. Under the illumination of halogen lamps, they wag their heads and swim in the water. Every fish looks very healthy.

Energetic.

Zhang Zian couldn't take his eyes off it, and his heart was full of envy. How much time, money and energy would it take to build such a huge aquarium.

Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he saw a medium-sized aquarium. In the corner of the aquarium, there were two or three round and white things, which inexplicably shocked him, and Ji Lingling shuddered. Goosebumps all over my body!

In the dark aquarium, his windpipe seemed to be clenched suddenly, making it difficult to breathe.

At first, he thought he was wrong, because there shouldn't be such things in the aquarium, this is Germany, not Los Angeles, and it's not a Hollywood low-budget horror movie...

However, after taking a closer look, he knew he was right.

They were a few white skulls, half buried in the sand and pebbles, brown dead wood intertwined and slanted in the box, and a few emerald green water plants emerged from the eye sockets of the skulls, swaying gently with the weak current .

There are also several spindle-shaped fishes with gray-green bodies and bright red abdomens swimming around in the water.

Why are there skulls in the aquarium?

Could it be that this is a black shop like a steamed stuffed bun shop that tricks customers into killing them and feeding them to the fish?

Weird and grotesque imaginations crazily grew in his mind like weeds. He lowered his head and glanced at Femas, and seriously considered whether to turn around and run away... But there are old teas behind him, and even if they are in danger, there are old teas. Tea topped.

"Your complexion is not very good, are you not frightened?" Carl said narrowly, staring at his face, taking a big gulp of beer.

Zhang Zian pointed at the skull in the aquarium with trepidation, "That's..."

"Of course it's fake, it's my personal bad taste!" Carl laughed loudly, "Everyone was shocked when they came here for the first time, so come closer and take a closer look."

Zhang Zian walked over to observe carefully with a sad feeling that if he didn't enter the tiger's lair, he would be a tiger.

When he got closer, he found that the skull was indeed a fake, similar to the kind of scaring props used in Halloween. It was far away just now, and there was visual interference from the water body, coupled with the special lighting and atmosphere in the aquarium, That's why I mistook it for the truth... It's really scaring people to death!

Here, like the pet store in Berlin, each display case or aquarium is labeled with what kind of animal it is, as well as its habits and feeding methods.

After seeing that the skull was fake, Zhang Zian relaxed, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and moved his gaze to the label, where he saw that it said natteri, made in Peru.

In other words, this aquarium raises the legendary piranhas.
