Chapter Twenty-Three: Release the Water, Catch the Fish
It's mid-September.
Ye Mo's brothers and sisters successfully obtained the excavator operation certificate and learned how to deal with common faults of excavators.
Two excavators have been shipped, along with some spare parts.
An orchard transporter with tipping bucket function. This transport truck is more than 100,000 yuan, which can be used to transport fertilizers and excavators.
Ye Mo's big excavator is just over 5 tons, which can just be installed.
Parents were very dissatisfied with Ye Mo's lavish spending just a few days after he came back, and nagged him for several days.
But when the excavator came back, it became a real fragrance for Ye Mo's father.
The U-15-3S, weighing 1750 kg, is small and can be freely shuttled through sloping orchards......
After buying the excavator, Dad Ye learned it briefly, drove the small excavator out, found a few spacious places in the orchard, and dug a few small reservoirs.
The maximum digging depth of the small excavator is 2.3 meters. It is used to dig a small reservoir of four or five square meters, which is just right.
The machine is not big, but the power is not small.
150 yuan of diesel, full horsepower can be used for more than nine hours.
If diesel goes back to the five-yuan era, driving full horsepower for a day, that is, the fuel cost of 100 yuan.
This excavator is equipped with a 0.04 cubic meter bucket. The bucket is not big, and digging a shovel is also seventy or eighty pounds.
Using a small excavator is much faster and more cost-effective than manual digging.
The 4.5-square-meter water reservoir has a height of about 2 meters and a volume of 9 cubic meters. If you dig it manually, two people will take two or three days.
With a small excavator, it can be done in half a day. Be skilled, two or three hours.
A small excavator can cover the workload of ten people.
Ye Mo's family bought a small excavator, and people in the village came to visit, seeing that Ye Dad had dug a small water pit in the orchard, many people came to ask the price, how much to dig a pit.
When Ye Mo and the others had not yet obtained the excavator operation certificate, Ye Dad received a lot of business for digging reservoirs.
In hilly areas, the advantages of mini excavators are reflected.
The micro-excavator, Ye Mo told his parents that it was 120,000 yuan, but he didn't dare to tell them that it cost more than 200,000 yuan. Otherwise, you will have to be nagged for a long time.
……
Back home.
"Where's my dad?" Ye Mo saw that his mother was drying his clothes and asked.
Mother Ye said, "I'm sleeping." ”
"Dad, I'm going to catch fish in the mountains." Ye Mo went in and shouted.
Dad Ye woke up and rubbed his eyes: "I'll go to Zhang Laosi's orchard and make a ditch for him later." You call your second uncle and uncle, and you go and catch it yourself. ”
"My micro-digging ......" Ye Mo wanted to tell his father the price of the micro-digging.
For more than 200,000 micro digging, Dad Ye drove out to work for others, charging 110 yuan per hour. Although the fuel consumption is not high...... You can calculate the wear and tear cost of the machine.
Seriously, 110 yuan per hour, it's still okay.
However, the price of that Weibo is too high.
If he knew that micro-digging was so popular in the countryside, and his father was willing to open it, Ye Mo would have bought the 130,000 yuan. It feels like it's pretty much the same.
Ye Mo originally planned that the 5-ton excavator would be used to work and make money, and they would use the micro-digging for their own use. Now, it's just reversed.
After thinking about it, Ye Mo still held the price of Weibo in his stomach.
Ye Mo got the 5-ton excavator onto the transport truck and went to the high soil slope.
Ye Ran opened the pickup truck and loaded several large buckets and large iron basins in it.
When I went out, I called the second uncle, the second aunt, and the uncle by the way.
The cement road with high soil slopes has been repaired.
Coming to the mountain, there are several workers who are building a warehouse.
The steel frame structure of the warehouse, the roof and the walls use insulated color steel. Ye Mo has planned 3 warehouses, two of which have already been built, and the last one.
The permission to build the house has not yet come down, saying that on the 20th of this month, someone came to see the site. If the venue is suitable, it will be approved......
The car drove to the edge of the pond.
This is a natural pond that has been widened......
The water here has never been drained, and the size of the fish in it is quite large.
Ye Mo got the excavator down, and the two brothers, Ye Zhi and Ye Wen, came first on motorcycles.
"Brother."
"Brother...... the two shouted.
Ye Mo responded.
"How much does your little excavator cost?" Ye Zhi asked.
"One hundred thousand." Ye Mo said.
"So expensive?" Ye Wen.
Ye Mo shrugged.
"How much oil does that micro dig use in a day?" Ye Zhi said: "I want to dig a few pools in the orchard over there. ”
"One day, one hundred and forty or fifty dollars for gas." Ye Mo said.
The advantage of micro-digging is that it can go to places where small and medium-sized excavators can't go.
Ye Mo got on the small excavator, the engine, dug an opening in the pond, and began to release water. Clear another road where you can go to the pond......
This pond has a surface area of about 1.5 acres, which is a large pond in the mountains.
The water depth is close to 2 meters.
Open a big but open, release the water.
It doesn't take long to see fish jumping on the surface.
After a while, Ye Ran came over in a car, taking the second uncle, the younger uncle, and Chen Chen with him.
Chen Chen took his father to Chengdu for surgery and has returned.
"Brother Ye Mo, Brother Zhi, Brother Wen." Chen Chen came over and handed them cigarettes.
"Third uncle's leg, okay?" Ye Mo lit a cigarette and asked.
"In my recovery, I can stand up now." Chen Chen said with a smile.
"That's good."
The water is almost over.
The second uncle and the younger uncle took the big iron basin and went down to catch fish.
On the shore, the silt flooded the calves.
Everyone went down one after another, and Ye Mo also took a big iron basin and went in to catch fish.
"Brother, on your left, a big tarpon." Ye Ran exclaimed excitedly.
This leaf dye, dressed up is definitely at the goddess level. But in the countryside, like a wild child. As soon as she jumped down, the mud stuck to her face.
Ye Mo reached out to grab it, a big silver carp, estimated to be about twenty catties. I didn't catch it at once, and ran to Ye Ran...... Ye Ran pressed it into the silt, and then picked it up, and the fish flicked its tail vigorously, splashing the silt and flying everywhere. All splashed on the second uncle's face......
"You have to grab the head of the fish, pick at the gills, and push harder." The second uncle wiped the mud from the corner of his mouth and said.
"It's so big, it's unsteady." The fish that Ye Ran caught ran away. A look of pity......
The water is shallow.
My mother and two aunts blocked the water outlet to prevent the big fish from escaping.
The pond contains silver carp, silver carp, grass carp, carp and crucian carp.
There are not many tarpon and silver carp, but they are both large.
The grass carp is a little smaller, seven or eight catties or ten catties.
It's just the quantity, not much.
After the water was drained, it didn't take long for the big fish to be caught.
6 tarpon and 11 silver carp.
More than a dozen grass carp.
The rest are carp, crucian carp.
There are quite a lot of crucian carp, both large and small.
The sun is setting.
Ye Ran sent the fish he caught, passed by the warehouse under construction, and Ye Ran also took a few silver carp to the workers there.
Ye Mo dug the opening of the pond deeply, drained the pond, and dried it first.
In another month, the dry season will be dry, first to dry, and then slowly processed.
Next to the durian orchard, there is a deep-water taizi specially used to irrigate the durian orchard.
Irrigation is not required during the rainy season, but there is little rain during the rest of the year, especially when it is particularly dry, it is still necessary to irrigate.
Before it was dark, Ye Mo drove the excavator over and dug out deep water gulls in the ditch.
