104. Raise eels and loaches
Ao Muyang's real purpose in leaving the spring was to explore the changes in Jindan, and the small golden droplets that caused the great change in Jindan came from the spring, and he had a hunch that there would be such small droplets slowly emerging in the future.
However, he casually said that he wanted to breed yellow eels and loaches, which was also a good idea.
Just like Sun Fuhua and others said, if the small building does not have a front yard but a back yard, then the backyard is blocked by the building, and it has no value.
However, if it is used to build a breeding pond, then the backyard is more suitable than the front yard, because many aquatic organisms such as yellow eels and loaches like yin and dislike yang, and they have to be selected in the shade for breeding.
Just do it, you can't go to sea anyway, Ao Muyang is soaked in the homestead.
He first paid for the engineering team to dig a drainage canal, and at the same time expanded the breeding area in the backyard - not that he had to raise more things, but that the spring water was bubbling so fast that the first foundation hole could no longer be fitted.
The drainage canal was completed, and the spring water emerged from the spring, and then poured into the breeding pit, and flowed down the breeding pit into the drainage canal, and finally flowed into the ambergris lake.
Then he began to clean up the breeding pit, before Ao Fugui dug some golden eels and loaches by the ambergris lake, Ao Muyang selected the juvenile fish that did not grow up and some female fish to be born did not eat, which will be just breeding.
There is no shortage of breeding technology in the fishing village, so he asked the old man Ao Zhibing, who provided him with a new technology: cage farming.
"I'll give you a call, you ask him to buy some cages, ask for polyethylene cages, sturdy and easy to use, and don't pollute the pool, you can look at the specific model yourself......"
"After buying a cage, you put it in the pond at intervals, and then plant water hyacinth, water floating lotus or something under the pool, which is called aquaponics ......"
The old man explained to him with a dry tobacco pouch, and Ao Muyang greatly admired: "Master Bing, you are not old, you know this new technology clearly." ”
Ao Zhibing said with a smile: "Haha, I have nothing to do at home, so I ordered some newspapers and magazines to study these breeding techniques, which can be regarded as a little experience." ”
The old man is a well-known aquaculture expert in ten villages and eight villages, when he was young, he was the aquaculture commissioner of the commune, and later he was the first person to contract a breeding pond in Qiantan Town during the reform and opening up.
It's just that aquaculture not only depends on ability and courage, but also on luck, more than ten years ago Ao Zhibing invested in a fishing farm by the sea, but a storm came, the fishery was fragmented, ruining his years of hard work.
Since then, he has faded his mind about breeding, after all, he can't move when he is old, so he changed to a breeding consultant, and anyone in the surrounding villages who encounters problems in breeding will come to him to ask.
This kind of cage is available in the town, Ao Muyang went to order a batch, and the merchant specially found the best material for him.
Now he is somewhat famous in the town, a few days ago, someone has been pulling banners at the gate of Jinhong, and the merchants in the town have asked each other to figure out what is going on, knowing that he is not easy to mess with.
The owner of the net did not dare to cheat him, gave him the biggest discount, and then sold him a batch of polyethylene cages.
Ao Muyang went to get the cage, and the boss introduced: "This is a nodular-free 36-mesh mesh, you see, the top and bottom of the cage are strung together with wire ropes, with a diameter of 5 millimeters, and it is absolutely strong!"
These cages are made up of mesh pieces spliced into a rectangular shape, measuring 3 meters by 2 meters, which can be connected to each other and then form larger and longer cages, or even form a group of cages.
After making sure that the cage was fine, Ao Muyang paid the money, and then bought a batch of water hyacinth seedlings, water peanut seedlings and water floating lotus seedlings together.
The boss who sold the seedlings specially advised: "Brother, don't let them enter the ambergris lake, these things are invasive species, and no one can control them when they breed after they enter." ”
Ao Muyang nodded: "Don't worry, I have a number." ”
Returning home with the cage, the old man Ao Zhibing came to instruct him to install it.
The foundation pit has been deepened, lengthened and widened, with a length of 10 meters, a width of 5 meters, and a depth of 2 meters, and the water storage capacity has been greatly enhanced.
Ao Muyang added a blocking net between the breeding pit and the drainage canal to prevent aquatic plants from flowing into the lake.
Ao Zhibing instructed him to match the ups and downs of the cages, which are mainly divided into five gears: bottom, half a meter deep water, one meter deep water, one meter deep water and water surface.
After placing the cage, the old man Ao Zhibing guided him to put up a fence outside: "Your breeding pond is too close to the mountain, there are snakes, rats and frogs on the mountain, these things will eat loaches and yellow eels, but you have to be careful to deal with them." ”
Ao Muyang put up a one-meter-high fence around the perimeter, in fact, if the general was guarding here, he would not be able to enter anything, but the general would go to sea with him during the day, and he would go to the mountains at night to guard Lu Zhizi, which was really lacking.
With the breeding pond, there must be seedlings, and it is obviously not enough for him to save a few loaches and golden eels from between his teeth.
This is more fucked, Ao Muyang's breeding pond is too large for the number of seedlings in his hands, but it is too small for relatively formal breeding, and he can't go to the seedling factory to buy seedlings, and people will definitely ignore him.
So he had the idea to go to the lake to fish for yellow eels and loaches, and the golden eels and loaches in Ambergris Lake are more popular than those in the outside world.
In August, Ao Muyang packed his things and prepared to go to Ambergris Lake in the evening, despite the fact that the weather was still hot.
As soon as he picked up the ground cage and carried the fishing rod, Ao Xiaoniu's voice sounded at the door: "Uncle Yang, I'm back." ”
Ao Muyang turned his head and was overjoyed: "Ha, Hu Hansan is back again? Aren't you discharged from the hospital the day after tomorrow?"
He was prepared for this, and he usually went to the town hospital every once in a while to visit their mother and son, and delivered food and daily necessities to the two of them, so he had a clear grasp of his injuries.
Ao Xiaoniu touched his head with a smile and said, "Well, I came out early, and the doctor said that I am a child and grow up fast." Well, it's okay on my legs. ”
He lifted his shorts, and the wound healed, leaving a hideous scar.
Ao Muyang patted him on the head and said: "This is a lesson, in the future, you kid will calm down for me, don't mess around, do you know? And is there anything you have to ask Uncle Yang to know? Don't be blind yourself." ”
Ao Xiaoniu smirked embarrassedly.
Ao Muyang handed over the ground cage to him and said, "Let's go, go with my uncle to catch loaches and golden eels." ”
Ao Xiaoniu said happily: "Okay, I'll call a few partners, we're good at this." ”
It was in the evening, the cram school ended, and the children turned into wild dogs running around the village, and they were happy to see Ao Xiaoniu come back, and then Ao Xiaoniu grabbed Zhuang Ding to help.
Lu Zhizi happened to come to find Ao Muyang, and when he saw him packing up and going out, he also became interested: "Let's go, I'll go fishing with you." ”
"It's loach and eel fishing, don't be afraid. ”
Lu Zhizi took a fishing rod and said proudly: "What is there to be afraid of this girl? Look at it, I'll help you today." ”
Ao Muyang smiled and said, "Fishing for yellow eels and loaches is not a simple matter, are you sure you can do it?"
Lu Zhizi's expression became even more proud: "Absolutely! No problem!"
