After eating and drinking enough in the restaurant,

Uncle Chen Dongqing rushed back to the county seat by shuttle.

And at checkout.

Li Duoyu told the boss the news that Agui had left.

Although I had vaguely guessed it, I still felt a little emotional when I learned it from Li Duoyu's mouth in person.

"Recently, many old acquaintances have disappeared, and I miss the good days when everyone used to be."

For this boss,

These things may have just happened.

But for Li Duoyu,

Some people and things are really too far away.

After leaving the Qingkou Pier.

Li Duoyu simply calculated today's accounts, and sold a total of 170 yuan today, and it cost 8 yuan to go to the restaurant just now.

There are 162 pieces left in his hand.

Li Duoyu took out four sheets of unity and handed them to the earth dog Chen Wenchao. He also made a lot of effort in this fishing, and he still has to give it to others.

"Here's your reward for today."

Chen Wenchao, who took the money, his hands trembled a little, if he didn't count the goods, this should be the biggest income in his life.

His father and mother left early, the family was very poor, and when he was a child, he relied on his grandmother to beg Xiaohai and weave a net to pull him up.

Later, when he grew up, he planned to work in the fishing team, but the captain thought he was too young to want him.

And in order to make a living, he can only beg for Xiaohai on the tidal flats and the seaside, and when he has the opportunity, he will do chores for the boat boss.

He remembers very clearly that three years ago, he helped a boat boss to net thousands of catties of big yellow croaker, but the boat boss didn't give him any dividends, so he only gave him one day's wages, five yuan.

After that, he was very disappointed in people, and especially wanted to make money and buy a boat of his own.

didn't expect to come out with Brother Yu today, he actually gave him almost a quarter of his income, which made him a little uncomfortable, his eyes turned red instantly, and his nose suddenly became sour.

Seeing that he was about to cry.

After Li Duoyu glanced at it, he said with disgust: "Don't you think it's too little." ”

Chen Wenchao turned around and wiped his eyes with his arm.

"No, it's too much."

"I didn't help much today, I almost ruined your good deeds, Brother Yu, and you gave me so much money."

"Since I was a child, no one has treated me so well except my grandmother."

Li Duoyu patted him on the shoulder:

"Don't be so sensational, I can't stand it, just keep the money if you give it, otherwise the big-ass Liu Xiaolan will be married by someone else."

After thinking of the woman, Chen Wenchao no longer hesitated and put away the money.

He wants to save money and marry the woman, and then before Grandma enters the ground, he must build a big house and give birth to a bunch of fat dolls.

......

When I got home.

It was almost four o'clock in the afternoon, and Li Duoyu found that A-Niang was cooking in the kitchen early today.

He smelled the fragrance.

Sneaking into the kitchen, after seeing the little whitebait omelette, he directly took a piece and ate it.

The taste is not bad, thief incense.

The taste of the small fish is just right.

"Have you washed your hands, just take it and eat it with your hands, you are not afraid of worms in your stomach."

"Auntie, this small fish omelette is delicious."

Li Duoyu grinned, and when he was about to take a second piece, he suddenly looked at the small fish omelette.

There are no small whitebait on Dandan Island, which is only available in the estuaries and lakes in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

"Mother, where did you catch these fish?"

"It's right behind our island."

"I heard from others that this Xihua seedling is fried with eggs, which is very replenishing qi and blood, so I have made a lot of fish with my father in the past two days, and I will replenish your body with Xiaoying."

After hearing that it was a stream slippery seedling, Li Duoyu broke open the omelette and pulled out a small fish to observe, looking at the slender and white-haired fish body.

Li Duoyu finally reacted, what kind of little fish looks like a little whitebait.

It is an eel fry.

Here on Dandan Island, it is commonly known as the Brook Slippery Seedling, and in this era, fishermen on the seashore are not familiar with this fish.

I only know that around the winter solstice, the eel fry will swim from the depths of the sea to their area, and then enter the rivers and lakes.

Look at this big pot of small fish omelette.

Li Duoyu visually inspected it, there were at least two hundred, and there were at least four or five hundred of them that were still frying in the big iron pot.

Li Duoyu's heart is dripping blood.

In later generations, when this kind of native eel fry was cheap, more than 10 yuan a piece, and when it was expensive, 40 yuan a piece was collected.

The average price can be sold for about 20 yuan.

And if there are 500 pieces, that's more than 10,000 yuan.

What shocked Li Duoyu even more was that his mother actually said to him: "You take the fish fry in that bucket and wash them, and then take them to dry them and eat them for breakfast later." ”

Li Duoyu looked at the wooden barrel in the corner of the kitchen suddenly, and sure enough, the whole bucket was full of eel fry, and I couldn't count how many Li Duoyu there were, but there should be tens of thousands.

No wonder I haven't seen Daddy and Auntie in the past few days, they are both catching this fish.

The eel is a very amazing creature, and in order to reproduce, the eel will stop eating when it reaches adulthood.

Without food or drink for months, they swim from inland lakes and mountain streams down streams to the depths of the trenches to reproduce and die.

Their offspring, which is only as thin as a needle when they are born, swim from the trench to the inland rivers along the currents.

And this kind of eel fry, at this time, did not receive the attention of fishermen, almost until the end of the 80s.

Merchants from overseas provinces came to them to build factories to engage in eel farming, and the fishermen realized that this fish, which was the size of a toothpick, was so valuable.

And eel is one of the few species, can not artificially breed the next generation of species, want to breed this thing, you must go to the river estuary to catch eel fry, and then put into a special breeding pond to raise, and it is very difficult to raise.

In later generations, there were also many people on Dandan Island who farmed, but Li Duoyu only helped in the eel breeding factory in the past, and did not have a complete set of breeding technology.

It is only known that eel fry are particularly difficult to raise and picky eaters, and they do not eat ordinary food, so they must be fed small red earthworms or freshwater small bloodworms.

And the eel has certain requirements for temperature, not too hot and not too cold.

According to the current conditions of Dandan Island, it is indeed difficult to breed eels, and it may not even make money.

But Li Duoyu thought about it.

Or decided to abandon eel farming.

At this stage, let's earn the first pot of kelp gold, and then talk about it, and in my spare time, I will earn some income from offshore fishing.

Wait for the basic stability.

Think about other things.

In his life, he has seen too many farmers who fish for three days and dry their nets for two days, and they want to raise whatever they want to raise when they make money.

As a result, in the end, everything was half a bucket of water, and it couldn't be managed, and in the end, everyone lost so much that they went bankrupt.

The aquaculture industry seems simple, but the actual water is very deep, and if there is a simple fish disease that is not well handled, it will make your investment go down the drain for several years.
