Chapter 57: Checking the Kelp Farming Raft

After hearing Li Duoyu's words.

Chen Huiying put down the flat burden.

The little yellow dog, who had just been beaten once, saw that someone was going to beat him again, and he was so frightened that he got into the chicken coop.

outcome

The hen that laid the eggs scared out.

Seeing that the hens were scared out, Chen Huiying scolded again: "You demon dog." ”

Li Duoyu saw this.

Quickly took out the little yellow dog, took out a discarded leash, got a dog collar for it, and then tied it to the corner of the chicken pen to prevent it from running around.

Chen Huiying was still a little angry: "It's good, what do you do with a dog in the chicken pen, what if you eat the chicken." ”

"Auntie, this puppy won't bite, its front feet are broken, it's not bad if you haven't been bullied by those big roosters, and you still want to eat chickens."

"Then you can't raise it inside, the hen is scared when it lays eggs, and it may not lay eggs in the future."

Li Duoyu hurriedly explained:

"I'll lock it up overnight, and I'll get a dog cage tomorrow, and when its legs are healed, I'll get it on the fishing raft."

"You're going to keep it on a fishing raft?"

Li Duoyu nodded: "I raised it just to watch the kelp farming raft." ”

After hearing that the dog picked up by the fourth child was to watch the kelp breeding raft, Chen Huiying looked at the dog and immediately liked the eyes, but still nagged:

"Then you have to get it out of the way, you can't keep it in a chicken pen."

"Got it, mother, I'll make a kennel for it tomorrow."

Li Duoyu almost forgot.

Raising chickens and ducks is a very important thing for A-Niang.

When they were young, before the family had a share of oyster fields, they relied on chickens and eggs in the chicken pen to eat a bite of white rice.

Whenever the hen lays eggs, everyone is reluctant to eat, and A-Niang will collect the eggs, and on the day of the market, carry the eggs to the commune to exchange food and oil stamps with others.

After Chen Huiying saw that the puppy was tied to the corner, she went to the kitchen to prepare dinner with confidence, she looked at the fourth child and asked:

"What do you want to eat at night?"

The moment I heard this.

Li Duoyu was stunned for a while.

In the previous life, when I was young,

I am most afraid that others will ask him what he wants to eat, because he always feels that it is very troublesome to answer.

But when he gets old.

What he was most afraid of was that no one asked him what he wanted to eat, so he could only eat there alone.

Facing A-Niang's questioning.

Li Duoyu did not say "whatever" and "okay" such perfunctory answers, but said with a smile:

"Why don't you stir-fry mustard greens, have an omelette, stir-fry dried oysters with green garlic, stir-fry one if you have cauliflower, and finally cook a soup with sea fish."

Seeing that Li Duoyu ordered so many dishes in one go, Chen Huiying said with a little disgust:

"Our vegetable garden is so big, how can there be so many vegetables for you to eat."

Li Duoyu smiled:

"Then let's have something to eat."

Li Duoyu took a look, the small vegetable garden behind his chicken pen was indeed a little small, and A-Niang used most of the vegetable fields to make chicken pens and pigsties.

There's not much room left in the vegetable patch.

I planted some, green garlic that is used for seasoning every day, and mustard greens that are used to make pickles.

There are no other greens.

However, Uncle Hu's family did not raise chickens and ducks, and the vegetable field was much larger, but he ate and lived alone, and he couldn't grow a few things.

Most of them are deserted there.

Li Duoyu pondered, anyway, Uncle Hu would have to move to Rongcheng sooner or later, or simply take down his family's vegetable plot.

This way, you can order a variety of other vegetables.

......

Li Duoyu looked at his watch.

Three and a half in the afternoon.

There are still more than an hour before Zhou Xiaoying gets out of class, and there are still two and a half hours before dinner time.

Li Duoyu plans to go to the kelp farming raft to see the latest situation of kelp seedlings first.

Kelp seedlings are not thrown into the sea after that.

Leave it alone.

On the contrary, it is much more troublesome to manage than those fruits and vegetables, and you should check at least two or three times a week.

The most basic thing is to check the raft and stakes to see if the stakes have been pulled and whether the kelp rope has been rolled and entangled.

Next, the kelp seedlings must be checked to see if they have been eaten by insects or if they have any diseases.

After coming to the kelp farming raft.

Li Duoyu put his hand into the seawater and tried the water temperature first, it was a little cold and biting, and he felt that the temperature of the sea water was only about a single digit.

This water temperature is very suitable for the growth of kelp, and then he pulled up a kelp rope and carefully observed.

Mainly look at the kelp seedlings, whether there are curls on both sides, and whether there are white spots and rotten leaves.

Fortunately, the kelp seedlings are healthy.

The kelp seedlings that went to the sea first are now more than 20 centimeters long.

If it continues.

In another three months, it will grow to a meter long, and after four months, it may be ready for harvesting.

Every ten meters, Li Duoyu randomly picks a kelp rope to check.

If you find that there are too many kelp seedlings, pick some kelp seedlings.

For the current Li Duoyu.

It's not about the yield.

It's about stability and success,

Only by raising these kelps well can his seafood farming plan be continued.

At the beginning, Li Duoyu did not choose to raise kelp without brains.

If that's right.

In a few years, there will be a large number of TV dramas on Hong Kong Island in China.

At that time, the first wave of wealthy "classes" will be the first to suffer from culture shock, especially in the area of food.

What, "Chicken Fish Maw Lo Noodles"

"Shark Fin Rice"

"Abalone Rice"

These ingredients, which frequently appear in TV dramas and movies on Hong Kong Island, will become luxury ingredients in the minds of Chinese people for a long time to come.

Fresh kelp is the main food of abalone, and when he grows kelp on a large scale, he will save a lot of trouble if he raises abalone.

However, abalone is considered to be one of the most difficult seafood to raise.

It's not just the environment that's very picky.

The character is also very squeamish.

often die to show you if you don't agree with each other.

At that time, the abalone market was very good, and there were many people on Dandan Island who raised abalone.

Those farmers who make money from raising abalone,

Say it's get rich abalone.

But those farmers who are in debt because of raising abalone scold it for bankruptcy every day.

The reason is that abalone has a long breeding cycle, and it takes two or three years to sell it at a good price.

In two or three years, the variables are too great, and we almost have to rely on God's food.

If God is in a bad mood.

If you get a tropical typhoon, the abalone farmer will probably lose all his pants.

However, at this stage, even if Li Duoyu wants to raise abalone, it is estimated that he will not be able to raise it.

The reason is that there are no seedlings.

Their native wild abalone is variegated abalone, a very small variety, and not very tasty.

Most of the abalone eaten in later generations were new varieties cultivated using the northern disc abalone and the variegated abalone from their side.

To be honest, Li Duoyu understands a little bit of this kind of cultivation work, but he only understands a little, and he really wants to cultivate new varieties, and he has to rely on the fisheries research institutes in various places.

Even if there is a whole set of abalone breeding technology, there is no use for it.

It's like Li Duoyu is very good at driving.

However, there is no decent road on Dantan Island, and if the speed is too fast, it may be overturned one day.

Li Duoyu plans to wait for the kelp cultivation to be successful, so he will instigate his uncle Chen Dongqing and ask him to find a way to cultivate some abalone fry suitable for growing in the southern seas.

However, that's all for later.

You can't become a fat man by eating in one go.

You have to do things step by step, so at this stage, let's concentrate on raising kelp.
