The tidal flat in the southeast corner of Qianhai Town is very large, how big is it, probably after the tide is completely low, you stand on the road and look into the distance, and you can hardly see the degree of sea level.

Along the way, you can see many fishermen walking on the tidal flats, swinging their hoes from time to time to turn the mud, looking for jumping fish.

On the tidal flats, you can also see many women walking through the mangrove forests on the south side, picking olive money.

As soon as he arrived at the place, Li Xindong carried his bicycle to the shore and locked it, and went down to the tidal flat with tools to start his work, while Xu An stood on the side of the road and watched.

In my previous life, I had only heard that the village had started to breed hopping fish, which was on the tidal flat in the southeast corner.

After three years of work, I have made a lot of money, every family in Xujia Village has built a new house, replaced a new electric car, and built a small square in the village.

If he can continue to do it, Xujiacun will be able to live a life of car travel sooner or later.

However, it is not only Xujia Village that has contracted this tidal flat, but also more than 10 nearby villages such as Majia Village and Yanjia Village, and Xujia Village only occupies a small part of it.

Compared with Xujia Village, because of the large number of people in other villages, there were a lot of gangs, and in the end, no one obeyed anyone, and they began to work hard.

Today I will tear off a corner of your shed and let the seabirds go in your shed to feast; Tomorrow I will block the entrance of the sea water in your farm, and the sea will not enter your field at high tide; The day after tomorrow, find some stinky fish and rotten shrimp and throw them in your shed

If you mess around, everyone will get angry, and they will be suffocated and bad.

It doesn't matter if I can take advantage of it, I'll be happy to make you deflated.

In so many villages, it is not that there are no honest people, but usually hard-working and capable honest people do not have a say in these matters.

The income in the second year is only 70% of the first year, which makes the dark side of everyone's hearts aggravated.

In the third year, all kinds of methods were used in the open, and even the bullshit thing of pouring pesticides into the breeding fields was done.

It is true that no one in Xujia Village dares to provoke, but tidal flat aquaculture pays attention to one prosperity and one loss.

When the tide rises, pesticides that were originally sprinkled on one field are not only brought to each field, but also to the sea.

After several days of low tide, there are countless dead fish and dead shrimp on the tidal flats, and the smell is stinking.

As a result, the new rural development project, which was booming in the first year and was interviewed by the city's TV station, ended in such a sloppy manner.

Now, in August 2012, this tidal flat is still unowned, it is so clean, so clear, and the breath of the sea is so pure

Three years later, the breeding of jumping fish was a great success, so if it were three years earlier, it should not be a big problem.

Xu An took out his mobile phone and began to search for breeding cases of jumping fish, and found that several other seaside cities in China had already engaged in tidal flat farming.

In addition to tidal flat aquaculture, there are also shallow sea purse seine aquaculture, deep-sea bamboo raft and float hanging aquaculture

The sea has become a sea ranch for mankind

Now the only remaining problem is how to tell the second grandfather about this reliable development model at the right time, in the right place, and in the right way?

If we can link tidal flat farming with the rural industry support advocated now, have policy support, and then make certain achievements, will the road of Xujia Village be easier than the previous life?

On September 1st, there is still half a month to go, and I have to think of a way to let the second grandfather understand the feasibility of tidal flat farming as soon as possible.

Xu An put his phone back in his pocket and was about to leave, when he looked up and saw the women picking olive money in the mangrove forest.

Thinking of the taste of olive money after cooking, Xu An couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva and shouted to the woman closest to the shore.

"Auntie, how much money have you picked for olives, and will you sell them for money? How much is a pound? I'd like to buy some and go back and try it! ”

"Selling money, how much do you want for twenty yuan a catty?" The aunt stopped picking, pulled her feet out of the mud with difficulty, and walked in the direction of Xu An step by step.

"How many have you picked, I want three or five pounds."

"Yes, you wait."

The aunt walked to the shore, left such a sentence and left, and appeared in front of Xu An's eyes in less than three minutes, with an extra handful of old-fashioned scales in her hand.

"A total of six pounds, all of them?"

"It's all about it." Xu An was very bold in wrapping up all these olive money.

Returning home with the olive money, Grandma Xu saw the olive money in Xu An's hand, and her face showed a trace of disgust.

During the Great Famine of that year, the olive money was eaten by the people of the seaside.

Wash and soak off the bitterness, steam it in the pot and eat it directly, many times you don't even put a little salt, and you have to swallow it with your neck if you want to live.

Grandma Xu was also one of these people back then, and it was also at this time that she was injured when she ate olive money, and she couldn't control the expression on her face when she saw olive money.

That memory is so memorable.

Xu An's method was naturally not as rough as that era, he took out a knife and gently cut the outer skin of the olive money, took out the core with hairs inside, and threw it away, this core was the source of the bitter taste.

After all the olives are processed in this way, wash them twice and pour them into the pot, add water to the surface of the olives, cover the pot, boil the fire and turn off the fire, wait until the water temperature becomes cooler, take out the olives and soak them in water, and so on three times, soak until the next morning, and completely remove the bitterness.

Finally, when cooked with shrimp, it becomes a delicious dish with great sweetness.

As soon as Xu An finished processing the olive money, there was a sudden knock on the courtyard door, and a childish child's voice sounded outside the door: "Brother Anzi, Brother Anzi, grandpa has something to find you, let you go to my house!" ”

"Okay, you go back first, my brother will go over in a while!" After Xu An washed his hands and feet according to the well water, he told Grandma Xu about this before Shi Shiran walked in the direction of the second grandfather's house.

The child who just came to call himself is the grandson of the second grandfather's family, Shishi, who is now in the third grade of primary school, has good grades, and his figure is also with the second grandfather, who is taller and stronger than his peers, and sometimes mistakes him for a junior high school student just by looking at his back.

The second grandfather's house is no different from other people's in the village, whether it is the style of the house or the area of the house, it is exactly the same.

The only difference is that a lot of flowers and plants are planted outside the courtyard wall of the second grandfather's house, and climbing vines and triangular plums climb all over the courtyard wall, adding a bit of vitality to the small courtyard.

Xu An walked to the gate of the courtyard and gently pulled the pull ring on the door: "Second grandfather, I'm Anzi, the stone said that you have something to look for me?" ”

"yes, just come in."

With the permission of the second grandfather, Xu An pushed open the courtyard door and walked into the courtyard, and as soon as he stepped into the courtyard, he saw Xu Guosheng, Xu Guoqiang, the fourth uncle, Aunt Hong and dozens of other people.

"What is this?" Xu An asked with some confusion.

"Let's have a little meeting, come over here and sit down." The second grandfather stretched out his hand and beckoned Xu An to sit beside him.

After Xu An sat next to the second grandfather, he looked at the elders around him, and couldn't help but sit up straight, with a serious face.

Seeing Xu An sitting down, the second grandfather knocked the hookah and put it aside.

"There is an important matter to call everyone here today, and this matter is related to the future development of Xujia Village." The second grandfather paused here when he said this, and waited until everyone's eyes were focused on him before continuing: "The town has agreed to let Xujiacun submit a future development plan, and if it is approved, it will be able to obtain talent support and low-interest loans from the city." ”

After hearing the second grandfather's words, a hint of surprise flashed in Xu An's eyes.

I had never heard of this in my previous life, nor had I heard anyone in the village mention it.

But Xu An quickly reacted that there was a high probability that the plan had failed, so the villagers never mentioned it.

In my previous life, I was just an ordinary high school graduate and prospective college student, and I could neither help nor give advice on the development of Xujia Village, so it was naturally impossible to participate in this kind of meeting.

But in just two months of his life, he has done a good job, from the original roadside stall to three shops, and he is already qualified to participate in the discussion of the future development of Xujia Village.

"After these days of research and observation, I have summed up three directions, one is the greenhouse planting of Xiu Die, the second is the fish pond breeding of Heping parents, and the last is the bamboo weaving of Xu Guoqiang's family."

"Greenhouse planting is not very good, the input cost is high, and we don't have many fields here, we can't build many greenhouses and can't be connected, and the labor cost is too great." Xu Guosheng was the first to refute.

"Fish pond farming is not very good, Heping and his parents have gone out to find new partners for almost two months, there is no news, the market for ordinary fish farming is not easy to find, and it is difficult to serve fish with high added value."

"Bamboo weaving is not good, there is a village in Beitun Town where more than 300 families have lived on this for generations, and they can do anything fancy style.

“.”

Everyone was talking and discussing, and it didn't take much effort to veto the second grandfather's proposal.

In the end, everything returned to the original point, Xujia Village, what industry to develop? What characteristic industries can be developed?

When the others were getting more and more depressed, Xu An's eyes were getting brighter and brighter.

Just now, I was still worried about how to mention tidal flat farming to my second grandfather, isn't it a very good opportunity now?

It's really dozing off and someone sent a pillow, which is wonderful!

"Second grandfather, do you know the jumping fish?" Xu An didn't explain directly, but picked a reason to ask.

"Why don't you know, I caught a lot when I was young, and this game tastes good, but it's hard to catch when it's small." The second grandfather smashed his mouth twice as he spoke, as if he was reminiscing about the taste of the jumping fish.

"Then second grandfather, have you ever heard of jumping fish farming?"

Can jumping fish still be farmed?

The eyes of everyone in the courtyard all looked at Xu An, waiting for Xu An's explanation.
