Crouching on the road teeth, Ren Wu threw the half-eaten takeaway at his feet, stared directly at the road with two eyes, watching the traffic coming and going, and the mobile phone cut to the then small "Chengdu", singing "What makes me feel embarrassed is the freedom to struggle." It had just rained, the air was flooded with the unique humid moisture of Jiangnan, and a pool of water on the side of the road shone on Ren Wu's face, as if it was hit with a black and white filter of Akira Kurosawa, and there was no expression.
Ren Wu has been opening a printing shop for two or three years, the business has a single without a single, the day is bland and trivial, at night two or three lights at random, it is not sad and bleak, it is impossible to get rich overnight, it is the epitome of all small businessmen, he has slowly accepted all this.
"Why don't you close the door early today?" Deciding when to close the door may be Ren Wu's last bit of freedom. Packing up the takeaway box, "bang" into the trash can, Ren Wu turned around and prepared to close.
"Can you make an acrylic fish tank?" A man's voice sounded behind him.
"Yes," Ren Wubian replied as he turned to his side, turning his head to see that it was a young man with a Sven-like appearance, still sweating on his head, "How much to do?" ”
"Just make one or two sets, I'll design them, I want to sell them online." The other party was a little embarrassed, he only had a budget of a thousand yuan.
"Okay. Come in. Ren Wu beckoned him to enter the store as he walked.
This man is The Still Wind. Before meeting Ren Wu, he has run dozens of manufacturers, no one is willing to help him do it, they all think that his amount is too small, in fact, the acrylic sea tank needs to be done by hand, there is no minimum order, they just simply look at this small business, only this humble shop on the side of the road is willing to pick up.
Ren Wu did not expect that it was this single, a small business that no one could look up to, that changed the lives of him and Jing Feng.

"Xiao Yu, help dad buy two angelfish." The story of "Listening to the Sea in the Quiet Wind" of top 1 of the whole network sea cylinder equipment store begins with this sentence.
The 8-year-old Jing Feng took ten yuan, stood timidly in front of the fish shop owner, took the packed two fish and a few pieces of change found, the boss seemed to see the child 'good cheating', pointed to the beautiful peacock fish and said: "Little friend, do you want to come back to two more?" ”
Jing Feng did not struggle in his heart, immediately bought the two peacock fish, put into the family father's own fish pond to raise for less than a year, it hatched hundreds of fry, although the family built two small fish ponds, but can not stand too many fish, the father is only simply like to raise fish, and there is no plan to sell, most of the hatched small fry are given to friends.
In order to keep warm in winter, the father actually pulled an electric lamp to heat up, at that time the father and son did not know that in fact, this is an extremely dangerous thing, 220v high voltage if the leakage, "can not get good people will be gone." It was not until later that Shizukaze's father fell in love with the man's "ultimate hobby" - fishing, and the hobby of raising fish was shelved, but Shizukaze has been deeply rooted in "fish" ever since.
After going to college, Shizukaze began to play with grass tanks, and bought a 20*30cm introductory tank in the dormitory, raising goldfish and tropical fish. After graduating with a master's degree in medicine, Jing Feng joined the ophthalmology department of a pediatric tertiary hospital in Suzhou, and after the income was high, he slowly "trenched" up and began to play with the "sea tank" (sea tank), and since then "once he entered the sea tank, it is as deep as the sea".
Sea tank fish farming is not more than the general fish tank, to artificially control the composition of the water, "in addition to the salinity to be controlled at 1.025, we have a product called 'titration', the calcium chloride, magnesium chloride, sodium bicarbonate these components to add, maintain the level of calcium ions, magnesium ions and other elements, in the end how many things to add, need to be tested, often like doing experiments", in his eyes, a tank of water than the cylinder itself is worth more. Originally a medical bully, slowly, Jing Feng became a well-known "internet celebrity" in the sea tank forum, and often debated (quarreled) with people in the forum.
Once, the fish raised by the static wind got the white spot disease, this disease is a common disease of ornamental fish, in fact, it is a parasite, the white spots will fall off during the treatment process, if not cleaned up in time, it is easy to infect other fish in the tank, but people can not stare at the fish tank for 24 hours, and it is not long before the tank of fish in the static wind all get white spot disease, and all the hands are "fish".
In order to prevent the same thing from happening again, Jingfeng made a "white spot disease isolation box" to isolate and treat sick fish, which is such a small invention, recognized by the forum aquarists, on the basis of the anti-white spot isolation box, Jingfeng made an external algae tank, which was used to increase the algae tank and raise some fish that are not suitable for raising in the main tank, "This is almost revolutionary in the industry, changing the way the sea tank is played."
White point isolation box
During the day, The static wind is the doctor of the human beings, at night, it is the doctor of the fish, in his spare time, he also helps people "open the cylinder", open a shop online to sell his small invention, the best selling is the entry-level 20 * 30cm small sea tank, packing and shipping, because the size of the package is very dead, the static wind cylinder also has a fixed size, once when packing, because the gap between the cylinder and the package is too small, "click, fracture", the next day with plaster and continue to ship. Slowly, the Jingfeng store began to sell other fish farming equipment, and the business became bigger and bigger, "the identity of the forum changed from 'net red god' to 'profiteer' who sold products."
Four years ago, Shizuka officially resigned to concentrate on his equipment store. As a pediatric ophthalmologist for several years, he is the "main output" in the department, seeing more than two hundred patients a day at most, "a child sees a doctor, parents and grandparents, and at most six adults surround a child."
With excellent learning ability and business ability, Jing Feng is a talent to be trained as the next head of the department, and the rest is only a matter of seniority, but the last straw that prompted him to decide to leave is not an overwhelmed job, but a word. One day, Jingfeng was on duty late at night to watch Luo Zhenyu's speech, "I heard him say 'the future is interesting because it is unknown', and immediately decided to resign", he wanted to be a fish in the sea, free, not struggling.
After resigning, his equipment store revenue jumped from the original 4 million to more than 10 million, the supplier also changed from only Ren Wu to hundreds of now, even so, he is still the largest buyer of Ren Wu now, Ren Wu's advertising materials store has developed from the original tens of square meters to the current 3,000 square meters, every year Jingfeng wants to purchase tens of millions of acrylic sea cylinders from him, Ren Wu's acrylic factory has also become one of the largest factories in Suzhou.

The room was lit with an aquamarine blue light, and the ripples of the fish reflected the ceiling, and a little special romance spread in the air.
The reason for the use of blue light is not only because some fish and plants will emit special light under blue light, increasing the ornamentality of the sea tank, but also because the blue sea can simulate the perennial living environment of these creatures, "the most interesting is some mimetic fish", The static wind pointed to a five-legged tiger (scientific name hairy fish), which often inhabits the rock reef and cannot be seen without careful inspection.

"As long as you buy the first fish, you can't stop", the game of the sea tank is recognized as the pyramid tip in the ornamental fish, in addition to controlling the breeding conditions, but also meticulous to control the bacteria in the tank, a sea tank is a small ecology, play to the top local tycoons to open a tank may be hundreds of thousands.
Jingfeng has received such a demand, the buyer asked him how much it costs to open a 5 * 6m cylinder, Jingfeng took the calculator to calculate the price for him, the buyer directly said "according to this multiplied by 10 to do", making him cry and laugh. Once Jingfeng received a phone call, because the customer wanted to order a cylinder is too large, asked him if he can hoist the cylinder to the 9th floor, and finally it cost more than 10,000 to rent the crane, "Some rich people spend hundreds of thousands of dollars every year to ask people to take care of their own fish, one or two such local tycoons can feed a peer."
In addition to equipment, Jingfeng also operates a biological shop, the price from a hundred yuan of rose fish, clown fish, to more than a hundred blue hanging, colorful hanging and then to hundreds of thousands of dollars of Australian fairy mother, white tail blue ring, etc., there are hundreds of varieties, the price is different, the treatment is also different, the thousand-yuan level fish live in "single room", good food and drink, dozens of yuan of fish can only live in the "Chase Shop", there are also tens of thousands of fish, "the most expensive or dragon fish, but that has gone beyond the scope of general fish farming, like the selection of Hong Kong sisters", The best seller in the store is the most familiar "Nemo" - clownfish.
Because it is live transportation, Jingfeng's first consideration is to ensure that customers get the fish in their hands is alive, the express delivery must arrive in one day, tens of thousands of fish, Jingfeng and his wife also have to personally escort, if you encounter a place often every other day or the death rate of fish is high, this place will be on the "blacklist" of Jingfeng, no longer take its order, if you encounter "double 11" or "618" such a big promotion, Jingfeng will only accept orders and do not ship, wait until the express peak period has passed, Will send a little parcel of Pi Shi Bio to try the express delivery speed, and slowly resume delivery.
Because of the epidemic, most of the fish are now in a "out of stock" state, most of the seawater fish in the store have to be imported from abroad, "there is the Philippines, most of them come from Indonesia, for safety, customs has a lot of restrictions on biological imports", each merchant while hoarding goods while rolling in, the price fluctuates up and down badly. Before the epidemic, Jingfeng could sell 20 or 30 million a year, but last year's profit shrank by nearly half, and this year he began to expand offline physical stores, "mainly to cultivate people's interest, I can't expect a goldfish farmer to play with the sea tank at once." ”
In the eyes of Jing Feng, even if you look at the whole of China, the sea tank is a blue ocean, "every city is not short of rich people, but the market lacks training", Jing Feng once received a aquarium worth 700,000 landscaping needs, the designer gave him a landscape painting, asking him to follow the painting to the sea tank landscape, Jing Feng according to the professional modification of the design drawings, "according to his design, the fish will definitely die", and finally the designer refused to give The end of the static wind, the reason is: "not according to the design drawings", Jing Feng no longer takes over the business of these people, He hates unprofessional people who point fingers in areas he loves.
Now Jingfeng will receive some offline physical stores to open a list of sea tanks, in the middle of a group of grass tanks to put a set of sea tanks, in his view, this is the beginning of the cultivation market, "maybe a long time, five or ten years, offline to develop a hobby, to buy some consumables online, will definitely still find me", this aspect of Jingfeng has absolute confidence.
Late at night, the still wind is still in the live broadcast room in the knowledge of the kop tank, a series of terms make people sound a little confused, the fish in the camera open their mouths to eat, shuttle between the rock reef and artificial coral, fresh, free, maybe this is the future he yearns for, interesting, and uncertain.
