Cui Guojie's relative is named Cui Guosheng, and he is a distant cousin of his. After a brief greeting, Cui Guosheng introduced his work experience to Li Yuan.

Cui Guosheng has been working in fish farms since he was in his twenties. He started as a small worker, and after more than 20 years, he finally became a master of the fishing farm, and he has a lot of experience.

Very satisfied with Cui Guosheng's work experience, Li Yuan said to him with a smile: "Since you are Cui Guojie's relative, I won't say those false words." At present, the cage farming of the farm can be said to be just beginning, and it has to start from scratch. If you are willing to help me, the salary is preferential, and the other supervisors are the same, what do you think? ”

Cui Guosheng glanced at Cui Guojie, and then said with a smile: "Since Mr. Li has said everything, I won't hide it from you, I have worked in the original fishing ground for so many years, and I am also trying to change the environment." ”

"Then you are welcome to join the Thai Xiantao Farm." Li Yuan smiled and shook hands with Cui Guosheng and welcomed him as a member of the farm.

Cui Guosheng is also a real person, and after deciding to work for Li Yuan, he immediately turned to the topic: "Since Mr. Li has decided to develop cage farming, I don't know if you have ever thought about what kind of seafood you want to cultivate?" ”

Li Yuan replied: "I have also considered this question, and I already have a general direction, but I still have to discuss it with an expert like you before it can be finalized." At the moment my idea is to farm abalone and grouper. ”

Li Yuan's words made Cui Guosheng's eyes light up, and he said lightly: "These two kinds of seafood are indeed very popular, grouper is very popular in the south, and abalone is a bestseller in the whole of East Asia. Good quality abalone is very expensive, but ...... Abalone is not easy to raise, especially at the seedling stage, and the mortality rate is still very high. ”

Li Yuan is engaged in aquaculture, and the least thing he worries about is the problem of mortality. Although he knew that what Cui Guosheng said was the truth, he still said confidently: "I won't tell you, I have friends in China who have been studying this issue and have already achieved some results." Don't worry about the mortality problem at all, I'll find a way to solve it. ”

Since Li Yuan has said this, Cui Guosheng did not hesitate, stood up and said to him: "I am much more relieved to have your words, I want to go to see the breeding site and decide how to arrange the cages." ”

So the three of them ∧ together ≌dǐng∧≌diǎn∧≌小∧≌ and said, .2↖3.o≯s_(); Come to the hill by the bay and observe the whole bay from a high vantage point.

Cui Guosheng looked at the environment of the bay and said with satisfaction: "The wind and waves here are calm, there are mountains on both sides to block the strong wind, and the impact of bad weather will not be great." Moreover, the outlet of the bay is also quite wide, which is conducive to the circulation of seawater, and from the geographical environment, it is a good place for aquaculture. ”

Of course, to determine whether a place is suitable for aquaculture, in addition to the geographical environment, it is also necessary to look at other aspects. Cui Guosheng soon came to the beach, measured the temperature, salinity and p-value of the sea water in various parts of the bay, and finally was very satisfied with the indicators of the sea water.

"Mr. Li, I don't think there's a problem." After inspecting all parts of the bay, Cui Guosheng finally said to Li Yuan: "Although the bay is not small, I only arrange cages in one-fifth of the water, which can prevent the deterioration of water quality and help improve the survival rate of seafood." ”

Li Yuan only cares about which seafood is high in price and popularity, and he doesn't know anything about these things. Anyway, when the time comes, you have to use the gold beads, so you don't have to worry about the survival rate at all.

However, Li Yuan felt that it was better to listen to the opinions of experts in this regard, and he did not want this bay of his own to be polluted, so he immediately said: "It's up to you to decide, my opinion is that it is also important to protect the environment, and if possible, the density of cages is lower." ”

Li Yuan's words were deeply in line with Cui Guosheng's mind, and he couldn't help but say again and again: "Mr. Li's idea is very right, only by protecting the environment well, can the aquaculture industry develop healthily." This was not the case at the fishing farm where I used to work, and the boss wanted to fill all the waters where he belonged to them with cages. As a result, the water quality has deteriorated dramatically, and the risk of aquatic products getting diseases has increased, and even if they survive, the quality is very poor, and they have fallen into a vicious circle. ”

Finally, after Li Yuan and Cui Guosheng discussed, it was decided to arrange no more than 300 acres of cages in the bay with an area of about 2,000 acres. This proportion is less than 20 percent, which will not put too much pressure on the ecological environment of the bay and is conducive to maintaining the water quality of the bay.

If the water quality of the bay is well protected, the farmed seafood will be less diseased, grow faster, and the quality will be very good after growth, so the two are complementary to each other.

Once you've decided on the size of your farming, it's time to budget. For this reason, Li Yuan invited Wang Shen, the accountant of the farm, to work with Cui Guojie and Cui Guosheng to calculate how much it would cost to run such a farm.

Cui Guosheng is a veteran of this industry and knows many cage manufacturers. He said that if he went to those manufacturers himself, he could get a big discount. But even so, it is a big expense to set up 200 acres of cages. The cost of manufacturing the cages, plus labor costs and other expenses, is at least $800,000.

In addition to the money for building cage farms, it is also necessary to purchase seafood seedlings, purchase various equipment needed for breeding, as well as the cost of feed and medicine, as well as the increased labor costs for managing the farm.

This is because Thailand's economy has been sluggish recently, and consumption in all aspects is relatively low, so it is so cheap. If Li Yuan plans to place the farm in economically developed regions such as Europe and the United States, the price will have to be at least doubled.

If it was half a year ago, it would be impossible to ask Li Yuan to come up with more than one million US dollars, and it would not be worth so much to sell others.

And now Li Yuan has in his hand the $1 million drug fee given by Guo Yonghua last time, plus the $300,000 deposit paid by Baoling Co., Ltd. in advance, and there is no pressure on funds.

Therefore, Li Yuan did not think much about it, so he decided to transfer 600,000 US dollars to the farm's account first, and let the construction of the cage farm start first. As for the follow-up funds, they will be transferred to the farm's account in installments according to the construction progress of the cage farm.

And Cui Guosheng also told Li Yuan that if you want to buy abalone and grouper seedlings, it will actually be cheaper to find a domestic farm. It's just that it will be a bit troublesome to transport those seedlings to the farm, and if something goes wrong on the way, it is very likely that the whole army will be wiped out, and the gains will outweigh the losses.
