Chapter 436: Catching Fish Fry
As soon as Xiao Ping returned to the farm, Wang Xiaohu immediately came to him.
Since Wang Xiaohu took on the responsibility of drying abalone a few years ago, he has also become one of the most important people in the farm. Wang Xiaohu's craftsmanship in making abalone is indeed first-class, and it has created a lot of profits for the farm. In fact, after last year's abalone auction, Xiao Ping gave Wang Xiaohu a one-time bonus of 500,000 yuan, and it is expected that he will get higher dividends this year.
For this reason, Wang Cannon also came to Xiao Ping, complaining that he gave his son too much bonus, according to Wang Cannon, young people become bad when they are rich, how can they give Xiaohu so much money at one time, this is not rewarding him but harming him. If the boss really wants to give out a bonus, it is better to send the money directly to Wang Xiaohu's parents, that is, Wang Dacang himself, so as to help this kid save some money for his wife.
Xiao Ping just laughed at Wang Cannon's statement. Wang Xiaohu is also an adult, and of course all the benefits must be paid to him, so how can there be any reason for an enterprise to issue benefits to the parents of employees? Even if this parent is also an employee of the enterprise, it is absolutely impossible to do so. As for Wang Dapao to save his wife's book for his son, then he can only let him do Wang Xiaohu's work by himself, and let him save as much as he can, but it is not something Xiao Ping can manage.
Although making abalone brought Wang Xiaohu a lot of income, he did not give up the old business of fish farming. This time, Wang Xiaohu hurriedly came to Xiao Ping to discuss this matter with him.
"Boss, you've been out for more than ten days, but you've made me anxious. As soon as Wang Xiaohu entered the office, he began to complain: "There are a lot of things in the farm, you don't care about it." ”
Xiao Ping has always admired the employees who are dedicated to the farm, and asked Wang Xiaohu with a smile: "What is the matter?" Are you in such a hurry?"
Wang Xiaohu said anxiously: "The eel fry fishing season has been going on for more than a week, and I heard that many fish farm owners are squatting on the wharf to buy fish fry." I've inquired. This year's eel seedlings are very scarce, and the price is much higher than last year. One has been sold for thirty or forty yuan, and it is still in short supply, and those fish farm owners are rushing to buy it one by one!"
Xiao Ping said happily: "This year's fish fry are sold so expensive? Yes, yes, I am very pleased!"
Wang Xiaohu looked at Xiao Ping inexplicably and said: "Boss, what is there to be happy about the expensive eel seedlings, you should buy some fish fry as soon as possible, otherwise these two fish ponds will only be able to raise other fish this year!"
Of course, Xiao Ping didn't have Wang Xiaohu's worries, and said confidently: "Don't worry, I'll take care of the fish fry or something." You first do a good job of disinfecting the fish pond. The fry will be delivered in a few days. How about we change the rules this year, and both fish ponds are raised with saury?"
Seeing that Xiao Ping was so sure, Wang Xiaohu also put his mind at ease and said: "Okay, the saury can be sold at a price, as long as the fry are enough, of course it is good to raise the saury." The fish pond was sterilized a few days ago, and the fry are just waiting for it!"
Xiao Ping immediately clapped his hand and said, "Okay, then I'll contact you now." Let them hurry up and bring the fry. You fill the fish pond with water and wait for my news. ”
"Okay. After getting the boss's exact answer, Wang Xiaohu stood up and said, "Then I'll go and release the water now and make all the preparations in advance." Save the fry to be in a hurry. ”
Wang Xiaohu, like his father, is a down-to-earth man of action, and after saying this, he went out to get busy.
In fact, Xiao Ping was in a hurry to come back. It's just about trying to deal with the problem of fish fry. Now there is Wang Xiaohu's reminder, which also makes him more aware of the urgency of this matter. That night, Xiao Ping brought several large plastic sinks into the demon refining pot. Harvesting of fry began.
Since the beginning of the business of catching fish fry, it has been a hard and dangerous job. Fishermen must have to be in the cold early spring. Driving a small boat in the mouth of the Yangtze River, where the waves are high and the wind is strong, looking for fish fry about the size of an embroidery needle, and if you are unlucky, you will be in danger of capsizing or even dying.
However, even then, income is very volatile. Many times, they often go to sea for a whole day, and they can only catch a few fish fry, and they can't even earn back the oil money.
But compared to these fishermen who catch fry, Xiao Ping's job is much easier. His working environment is in a demon refining pot with a mild wind and a moderate temperature, and he does not have to fight with the waves on a boat, and more importantly, he can guarantee the harvest, which can be said to be almost perfect.
There was something to do today, so Xiao Ping didn't mess with the black devil who came up, and directly carried the plastic sink to the lake. He plans to catch both the saury and eel fry at once, starting with the more expensive saury fry, of course.
Xiao Ping sank the two troughs to the bottom of the lake near the shore, intending to gather all the saury fish in the lake with his mind.
Ever since the Demon Refining Pot successfully recognized its master, Xiao Ping had mastered this new ability and could control all the creatures in the pot. Although Xiao Ping has not yet used this skill on horses, dogs, or cows in the demon refining pot, it is very suitable for things like catching fish fry.
Xiao Ping, who was standing in the lake with his trouser legs curled, slowly concentrated his mind and used his mind to influence the saury fry to get closer to him. After a few minutes of bated breath and hard work, the lake began to move. At first, there were very small ripples on the surface of the water not far away, and then the ripples became larger and larger, and soon spread to the entire surface of the lake.
The small ripples seemed to be alive, gathering from all over the lake in the direction of Xiao Ping, and there was really a bit of supernatural smell. If one looks closely at these ripples, they will see that there are small fish swimming under each ripple. These fish are the saury fry hatched this spring, controlled by Xiao Ping's thoughts, and gathered from all directions.
It stands to reason that the saury has only hatched for a few days this season, and it is not so big. However, the environment in the demon refining pot is special, not only has enough food, but also has abundant aura, which is why the fry will grow so fast.
Under Xiao Ping's control, hundreds of fish fry gathered from all over the lake to a few meters around him, and the dense patch on the surface of the lake made people feel a little numb when they looked at it.
However, in Xiao Ping's eyes, these fry are all money, so he was in a very happy mood and let all the fry be concentrated in two tanks.
As if they could understand Xiao Ping's mind, the fry swam into the tank in two groups, and then stayed quietly inside, none of them tried to swim out. Xiao Ping was very satisfied with this situation, and slowly dragged the two troughs from the bottom of the lake to the shore.
After dragging the sink ashore, Xiao Ping ended his control over the fry, and the fry that were as neat as an army just now immediately turned into a pot of porridge. The fry scurried around in the tank, trying to escape from the little cage. But no matter how hard they try, they can only be trapped in this small world.
"That's good. Xiao Ping looked at the lively saury fry with satisfaction and said to himself: "There are enough fish fry for two fish ponds, and the income of the farm can go up to a higher level this year!"
There are only two fish ponds in the farm, and even if Xiao usually adds spiritual liquid to them from time to time, the number of fish that can be raised is still limited. After roughly estimating the number of saury fry caught, Xiao Ping released dozens of fry back into the lake to increase the number of saury fish in the lake. Now everything is about sustainable development, this demon refining pot completely belongs to Xiao Ping alone, of course he will not do everything he can.
After the saury fry are caught, the next step is, of course, the eel fry. Unlike saury, eels that live in freshwater migrate to the sea to spawn, and then baby eels swim back to freshwater. Therefore, if you want to catch eel fry during this season, you must go to a place where brackish waters meet, such as estuaries.
There is also such a place in the Demon Refining Pot. Xiao Ping came to the mouth of the river and laid a trough, and gathered the eel seedlings through his mind as before. The whole process is similar to fishing for saury fry, the only difference is that the eel fry move more widely, and the water flow at the estuary is more turbulent, so you have to wait longer for the eel fry to gather.
Xiao Ping was indeed long enough, and after more than an hour, the remaining few tanks were filled with eel seedlings. Because there were a lot more eels than saury in the rivers before, Xiao Ping also caught significantly more eel seedlings. Although he didn't have time to count them one by one, he probably estimated that there were at least a few thousand eel seedlings.
Xiao Ping is naturally very satisfied with today's harvest. He left the large tank containing the fish fry in the demon refining pot for the time being, and then left here to take a bath and sleep.
At dawn the next day, Xiao Ping came to the fish pond of the farm. He first inspected the fish pond and made sure that the fish pond had been cleaned and disinfected, and put in clean and clear river water, and he couldn't help but nod his head again and again, expressing satisfaction with Wang Xiaohu's work.
Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around, Xiao Ping took out the water tank containing the fish fry from the demon refining pot and put it on the edge of the fish pond, and then called Wang Xiaohu.
At this time, it was still early, and Wang Xiaohu was still lying in bed and didn't get up. In a daze, he didn't see that the call was from Xiao Ping, so he directly connected the phone and asked, "Who ......?"
"It's me, Xiao Ping!" Xiao Ping, who heard that Wang Xiaohu was still sleeping, and his prank heart was uplifted, deliberately said loudly: "Don't sleep, the saury fry have been delivered, come to the fish pond!"
Wang Xiaohu's sleepy insect was driven away in an instant, and he hurriedly said loudly: "Ah?!Okay, I'll be here soon!"
Ten minutes later, Wang Xiaohu had already arrived at the fish pond. When he saw the saury fry in the two sinks, he couldn't even close his mouth with laughter. With Xiao Ping's help, Wang Xiaohu carefully put the fish fry into the two fish ponds, and then carefully observed the situation of the fish fry around the fish pond, and there was no time to deal with Xiao Ping at all.
Xiao Ping knew that Wang Xiaohu was worried that the fish fry would have problems and cause major losses, so he didn't bother Wang Xiaohu anymore and left the fish pond silently. To be honest, Xiao Ping is not worried about the survival rate of the fish fry, he has already added spiritual liquid to the fish pond, if the fish fry will die in this way, then the demon refining pot can be thrown away.
At present, Xiao Ping has more important things to do, that is, to sell all the eel seedlings caught as soon as possible. (To be continued.) )
