Chapter Ninety-Three: Oyster Fields, Bamboo Planted (Seeking Follow-up)
In a small place like Dandan Island, the news spreads very quickly, and in less than two days, the whole island will know about it.
And the fishermen who were rescued by Li Duoyu, after eating the dried kelp given to them by Lao Li, directly turned into a moving human-shaped horn.
When I meet people, I praise the kelp soup sold by Li Duoyu is very delicious.
Not long after.
There are many villagers who want to try it and want to buy kelp stew to drink.
At the beginning, Li Duoyu saw that there were not so many people who bought it, so he simply bought it half and gave it away.
didn't think about it, after this wave of people went back, they all thought that the kelp stew was good, and they also followed the publicity.
As a result, in less than a few days, more than 100 villagers came to buy them.
Seeing that more and more people were buying, Li Duoyu didn't dare to give it away, but because no one had sold kelp before.
Li Duoyu is also not easy to price.
In addition, most of the dried kelp sold in the Rongcheng vegetable market are transported from the north, mixed with transportation costs.
The price is not low.
After comprehensive consideration in many aspects, the price of five cents for first-class vegetables, four cents for second-class vegetables, and two cents for hairy vegetables was temporarily determined.
But even at this price, it is still very profitable for Li Duoyu.
The kelp harvested earlier has a total of 14 tons, and under normal circumstances, the kelp will shrink by about six to seven times after drying, and then deduct all kinds of leftovers.
The dried kelp that Li Duoyu can sell is almost more than 4,000 catties.
Even if it is sold at this price, it will have about 1,000 yuan in income, and this batch of kelp that was forced to be harvested ahead of schedule only accounts for about 10 percent of the total production.
Therefore, Li Duoyu estimates that if all the kelp is harvested, dried and sold, his final income will be more than 10,000 yuan.
The overall investment in kelp farming is not particularly high, plus wooden piles, brown ropes and various labor costs, Li Duoyu probably invested more than 2,000 yuan.
The return is a full five times the investment.
Of course, there are a lot of things involved in this, such as his kelp rope is bought cheaply, but after using it this time, it is estimated that it will have to be scrapped.
And the most important point is that the kelp seedlings provided by the institute for free have allowed Li Duoyu to save at least a lot of money.
However, high returns often come with high risks, and raising kelp is very dependent on God for food.
If you are unlucky and hit some winter typhoon, spring typhoon or the like, then all the investment will be wasted.
And these villagers buy Li Duoyu's kelp, not just to eat, they want to try whether the kelp is good or not.
In less than a few days.
Li Duoyu sold seventy percent of the dried kelp, and the meat stall on Dandan Island was also sold out.
Lao Jin, a pork guy, recently found that the sales of pork bones have skyrocketed more than ten times, and the stall opens early in the morning every day in less than ten minutes.
All kinds of pig bones were snapped up, and those villagers who didn't buy pig bones would complain to him: "Lao Jin, get more bones tomorrow." ”
After inquiry, Lao Jin learned that everyone was buying pork bones to go back to boil kelp soup, and the whole family was tired of drinking pork soup for a pig killer like him.
But I couldn't help but be curious, so I bought a handful of dried kelp and stewed it back to drink, but on the same day, the family drank all the soup.
Looking at the empty bottom of the pot, Lao Jin realized that it was not that his family didn't like to eat pork, but that he hadn't found a suitable way to eat it.
......
These days, Chen Wenchao is not on Dandan Island, but in Gushan Dazhu Village with Ou Ge to buy Maozhu.
Originally, I planned to go to Gushan to collect bamboo ten days ago, but due to extreme weather and Brother Yu's family.
Chen Wenchao also postponed for more than ten days, and then came to Dazhu Village, this time he walked into the village and met Brother Ou again.
In the face of Brother Ou's warm invitation.
Chen Wenchao refused on the spot, and he insisted on walking all the way into the village.
But he hadn't walked a few kilometers before Brother Ou changed his motorcycle and came down to pick him up.
Chen Wenchao, who sat on the motorcycle, had an indescribable excitement, and felt the speed and passion for the first time.
Chen Wenchao secretly made up his mind, he planned to buy a motorcycle when he married Liu Xiaolan, and then fly her around the village.
And this time, Li Duoyu wants to buy the moso bamboo, which is different from the last time it was used to make fishing rows, as long as it is medium-sized, about seven inches of moso bamboo.
If you drive piles in tidal flats, the bigger the head of the bamboo, the more difficult it will be, and if you can't drive it deep, it will be easy to pull the pile.
Along with it, the bamboo was constantly being transported back to the island.
Li Duoyu also invited Master Zhang, who specializes in piling, to come over, and find a professional person to do professional things.
However, Master Zhang and the others are also the first time to drive bamboo piles on the tidal flats, and they are not very experienced.
Under Li Duoyu's intentional or unintentional reminder, this group of piling people quickly figured out the way to drive bamboo piles.
They first use an iron rod to poke open the diaphragm at the bottom of the bamboo, which can increase the friction between the bamboo and the silt.
The bamboo stakes were more stable and secure, and then they tied a wooden stick horizontally to the middle of the bamboo.
Then, a person with a larger tonnage was called to stand on the wooden stick, and he kept stepping and jumping, using his own weight to beat the bamboo into the tidal flat.
Although this method is very tiring, the effect is very good, a group of three people, and their piling team can drive five or six piles together.
And the bamboo that goes down is tied with brown ropes at both ends.
The top one is used to hang the kelp, and the bottom one is used to hang the oysters.
After seeing this new breeding method, Lao Li, who has been raising oysters for so many years, is stupid.
He naturally knows how good this cultivation method is, like their pile-type oyster fields, which can only be located in the intertidal zone, and the daily labor time is very limited.
Once the tide rises.
I can't do anything.
I can only wait for the low tide to go to work.
However, if you use a fishing rope to harvest oysters, it is very easy to harvest oysters even at high tide, as long as you drive a boat and pull up the breeding rope.
And most importantly, the way of hanging will greatly reduce the damage of natural enemies.
Lao Li has been raising oysters for many years, and what he hates the most is oyster snails and all kinds of small crabs.
Every time you harvest oysters, you want to wipe these species off the face of the earth.
However, if the method of hanging culture is adopted, it is not so easy for oyster snails and crabs to eat oysters.
The fishermen in the vicinity, after seeing Li Duoyu doing things again, came over to watch, and learned about this new breeding method, and they learned from the experience and followed suit.
After all, the last time I opened a net with Li Duoyu, I have already made a lot of money, plus these days, Li Duoyu kelp is selling well.
has made him an indispensable topic of conversation after tea and dinner on Dandan Island.
Fishing for big bass, making nets, making fishing rows, raising kelp, and bringing out one of them alone are enough for fishermen to blow for several years.
However, everyone is not brainless to follow the trend, they did see the advantages of this kind of hanging oysters, so they made up their minds to change this way of farming.
In addition to the fishermen who want to raise oysters to buy moso bamboo from him, there are also many fishermen who want to engage in fishing rafts and also want to buy moso bamboo from him.
Although, Li Duoyu has repeatedly stressed to them that summer is the peak season for typhoons, and there is a risk of pulling out the piles of moso bamboo, and it is difficult for the fishing rafts to withstand the typhoon.
But these fishermen are all stunned, and they all plan to gamble with God.
As a middleman who has never made a difference, Li Duoyu does not want to dampen the enthusiasm of these fishermen.
And this large order of 2,000 moso bamboos also made Li Duoyu earn 500 yuan with tears and blood, and directly saved the wages of making moso bamboo piles.
