Chapter 23 Fish Farming
When the summer solstice received the fish fry sent by the children from the village, it was already in the afternoon, but the speed of the babies was quite fast, and the fish fry needed for the summer solstice when it was dark had basically been collected, and what the summer solstice did not expect was that there were many small fish the size of the middle finger. Of course, such fish fry also gave more money on the summer solstice. So the summer solstice happily counted the fry, and no one paid one or two cents, and the total was more than twenty cents. And inform everyone that the fry are enough, and they don't plan to buy them.
The village children couldn't help but be disappointed when they heard that Xia Zhi said that they would not collect fish fry, after all, this is the only way for them to make money at present, and now everyone is full of energy, but they were told that they would no longer collect fish fry, and everyone couldn't stand it for a while. However, the peasants were generally simple, not to mention that they were still children, and the joy of making money soon outweighed the disappointment of not collecting fish, so everyone didn't say anything, and everyone dispersed happily.
When everyone left, Xia Zhi couldn't wait to call the Tian sisters to help carry the fry to the pond, and prepared to put the fry into the two ponds, after all, the fish is still good in the water, and the longer it stays on land, the worse it is.
After releasing the fish, the sisters of the Tian family went home, after all, Grandma and they are coming back soon, and they have to work more, after all, they are not as fast as the summer solstice, so they can only work slowly and carefully, and do a little more to add more to the family.
But it was only Xia Zhi who stood by the pond and thought about how to raise fish. After all, fish fry are very fragile, and if they are not good, they will get sick and infected, and the fish in the whole pond will not survive.
Xia Zhi still remembers that when he didn't leave the village in his previous life, it seems that there was a family that also fed fish, specifically because he didn't remember what Xia Solstice was, but it seemed that the family didn't pay attention to the fish when they fed the fish, which caused irreparable losses.
It's just that at that time, they were all buying feed to feed the fish, and the water pollution was serious in the previous life, Xia Zhi believed that as long as he paid attention, and the water pollution in the Dawu Dynasty should not exist, the situation should be better. Besides, where to get feed in this Dawu Dynasty, Xia Zhi doesn't know anything about the composition of the feed, let alone make feed.
The summer solstice has seen the fish farmer once fed the fish with the fodder, and the summer solstice has also seen this forage, and there is water on the road. It seems that chicken poop and duck poop can also be fed to fish, but Xia Solstice is not going to do that. It is estimated that if the people who bought fish in this backward ancient country knew that she was fed with feces, they would have to go to their house to find trouble. Besides, those are fertilizers, which are meant to be used to fertilize the fields. There is also that I heard that you can feed fish with pig food, and this summer solstice feels that you can consider it, and it is a big deal to cook more pig food every time.
It is the environment in the north that also affects the growth of fish, the northern winter is longer, the water temperature is a very important problem, but the summer solstice plan is to wait until the winter to sell the fish, leaving only some fingerlings, so that you don't have to worry about how the fish survive the winter.
There is also the problem of hygiene, the summer solstice plans to change the water in the pond after a period of time, as for how long, it depends on the water quality, if it is good, the summer solstice plans to change once in a few months, and if it is not good, it will be changed once every half a month, anyway, it is next to the Houcun River, it is convenient to get water, it is a little trouble. There is also weeding and decontamination, keeping the water quality fresh and pond environmental hygiene, preventing diseases in time, mastering pond injection and drainage, maintaining appropriate water volume, preventing fish escape, so that fish have ample and comfortable activity space and a good living environment. In short, it is to do our best to ensure that the fish can grow healthily, as for some oxygen, there is really no way to do this summer solstice, after all, you can't ask her to get an oxygen machine in this Dawu Dynasty.
"Summer solstice, it's time to eat, what are you still doing there?" When the summer solstice was thinking about how to raise the fish in the pond, Tian Laosi, who had been busy all day, came to have dinner with his family, and when he went to the Houcun River to clean the mud, he saw that the summer solstice was still standing by the pond, so he asked.
"Daddy, are you back, are you tired?" When Xia Zhi saw his father's house coming, he put down the fish and ran over. Well! We're still kids, we've got to be kids!
"I'm back, I'm back, I'm not tired! Don't get tired! Tian Laosi couldn't straighten up because he bent over to plant rice all day long, and his back hurt, but he still told Xia Zhi that he was not tired, but Xia Zhi could know through his words that Daddy was very tired, and presumably Grandma and a few uncles and aunts would not be better. Because Grandpa's leg was not good on the summer solstice, he recuperated at home and did not go to the field.
"Daddy, you wait to go home, I'll fetch water to wash my face and rub it for you. The eldest sister has cooked the rice, and she will be able to eat it in a while! ”
Tian Laosi took Xia Zhi's hand and walked back, and said, "Okay! Good! My daughter rubbed me, and Daddy immediately jumped around. However, seeing that you were by the pond just now, didn't you go fishing again! Didn't I tell you to help you catch fish when Daddy is busy! After speaking, Tian Laosi's tone became serious.
"No, no, I'm just going to take a look, today Xiaoman found a lot of people to come over and help me catch fish, and the fry have already been fished Daddy." Hearing Daddy's question, Xia Zhi hurriedly denied it, the little hand was still waving, and told him about finding someone to catch fish fry, because Tian Laosi and they went out in the morning, and Tian Lichun sent them for lunch, so he didn't know about Lu Dao and Xia Solstice They were looking for someone to catch fish.
"Looking for someone to catch fish fry? Who's that looking for? Tian Laosi heard what his daughter said, and couldn't help asking.
"I don't know who Lu Dao is, they are all Xiaoman's search. However, there are the two pillars of Aunt Xu's house, as well as Mao Wazi and Tian Shuzi, and I don't know anyone else! ”
"Yes." He still knows his own daughter, and he doesn't go out much, so he doesn't know much about the people in the village. Tian Laosi estimated that the people Xiaoman found were all seven or eight-year-old boys, who touched fish and shrimp every day, and couldn't be idle.
"Girl, how do you raise that fish?" Tian Laosi thought about how to raise fish from fishing fry.
"Daddy, I don't know what to do, but last time I threw a little pig food into the Houcun River, I found that the fish seemed to eat pig food. So I plan to follow the pig in the future, three meals a day to the fish to put some pig food, and look at the rest! ”
"Yes. That's okay, but girl, you can't go to the pond alone, the pond is dug deep, if you want to feed the fish, you can find your aunt, or other uncles and aunts, you can also find your father, even if you are busy with farming, you can't go yourself, don't you hear! ”
Oops hey! Daddy, Sister is only eight years old, okay! Although Xia Zhi complained in his heart, he was concerned about Tian Laosi, and he was very useful, and replied:
"Daddy, don't worry, I won't go alone, even if I go, I'll find Daddy together!"
"That's right!"
The two entered the house, and the family had already washed, just waiting for Tian Laosi and Xia Zhi, Xia Zhi hurriedly fetched water for Daddy, washed it, and sat in the hall with everyone to eat dinner. After everyone ate, they all washed and slept quickly, and after a tiring day, they have to get up early tomorrow to go to the field!
Xia Zhi hurriedly offered his father courtesy, fetching water, washing his feet and massaging, which made Tian Laosi boast in his heart that it was good to have a daughter, which made Zheng laugh.
