Before starting to fish for eels, Li Duoyu went to the eel breeding factory to check the fan, and in the seven large ponds, there was a Li Duoyu specially used to raise water.

Water cultivation is actually to cultivate beneficial algae, such as microcystis or something, but Li Duoyu has a limited level of education, and he really doesn't understand what algae are in the pond, and he is completely relying on experience in breeding.

Nowadays, the overall water color of this pond is pale green, which does not look turbid, on the contrary, it is very refreshing, which is the green water that farmers like to see.

As long as the water color is maintained, the eels will not die easily.

The pond was built.

The water was also raised.

When everything was ready, I almost caught the eel fry.

Over there at the docks.

Li Duoyu and Chen Wenchao refit the nets for fishing eel fry on a sampan boat.

The net he modified was very simple, with two bamboos about the same length crossed and fastened to the bow of the boat.

Then hang a fine-hole fishing net with a net bag on the front end of the bamboo, so that when the sampan boat moves forward, it can catch the eel fry in front.

Seeing Li Duoyu's modified fishing boat, he had eaten the stone of the small tube fishing bonus last time, and licked his face and asked:

"Brother Yu, you converted the boat like this, what kind of fish are you going to catch, if you have a way to make money, can you take me to make money together."

"Yes, then pay some tuition first." Li Duoyu quipped.

Shi Hehe smiled: "How much does it cost?" ”

"Don't need money, work in my eel factory for free for two years, and I'll take you to make money together."

"Ah, that's too expensive."

Shi smiled bitterly, although he had decided to engage in breeding with Li Duoyu without brains, but this time, he really didn't dare to follow.

Everyone thinks that the investment in his eel breeding factory is too big, and besides, the eels are not delicious, and the tugboat in the village goes out and catches a lot of eels every time.

There are a lot of white eels, oil eels, red eels, and oil cones, and there is no need to breed them at all.

"Forget about eel farming, there are other projects to make a fortune, remember to call me."

Li Duoyu smiled, after all, many fishermen now have limited cognition.

He didn't even know that this transparent fish was a seedling of an eel, and he thought that he was raising eels from the sea.

Li Duoyu didn't want to explain too clearly, after all, the site for breeding eels on Dandan Island was so small, and most of it was occupied by him.

If they had known that eel farming could make a lot of money, the people who had contracted him the land in the first place might have complained.

After refitting the sampan, Li Duoyu glanced at the shrimp tugboat with barnacles and mussels on the bottom.

Speaking of which, this boat has been detained by him for two months, and it has also helped Li Duoyu a lot, and it has come in handy when collecting oysters and kelp seedlings.

But Liu Yun's family still didn't come to redeem the boat.

I don't know if their family can't make up so much money for a while, or they feel too embarrassed and don't have the face to come to Dandan Island.

remembers that the one named Liu Yun was sentenced to only three months in the end because of his report on Xiao Weidong, his meritorious performance, and his willingness to compensate the victim for his losses.

And that Xiao Weidong was regarded as the main culprit of the theft case for planning the oyster theft case, and was finally sentenced to ten years because of the huge amount of money involved and the poor attitude of admitting guilt.

Li Duoyu really hopes that Liu Yun's family will come and redeem the fishing boat quickly.

Because he's been so short of money lately.

Just digging the seven big ponds and upgrading the bamboo plant, and hiring people to clip kelp seedlings, it cost him nearly 10,000 tickets.

In order to finalize the eel plant, seven or eight impeller aerators, a machine for grinding the fishmeal and a feed mixer were purchased.

However, these breeding equipment, which were very common in the previous life, were not produced by the machinery factory in Rongcheng.

I still asked Zhao Jialu to inquire, and then I learned that Guangcheng in the next province was only sold.

In the end, through Zhao Jialu's relationship, Li Duoyu purchased these equipment, and this item cost Li Duoyu thousands of yuan.

These days.

Li Duoyu simply calculated an account and found that the money he earned from raising kelp and oysters, including some miscellaneous items, was not enough for the construction of this eel factory.

Zhang Jinsha, from the same village, originally wanted to learn from Li Duoyu and learn how to raise eels, but after learning the overall input cost, he retreated on the spot.

Obediently went back to raise his clams, razor clams, and kelp.

Li Duoyu drove the boat and came to the sea area of the mouth of the Wujiang River with Chen Wenchao.

With the sound of the "rumbling" engine, the eel fry fishing operation officially begins, and the sampan boat drives in the opposite direction of the current.

The fishing nets are almost attached to the surface of the water, because the eel fry that have just arrived at the coast are very light, most of them are floating on the sea, and each one is estimated to be only about 0.1~0.2 grams.

The swimming ability of eel seedlings is not strong, whether they can reach the mouth of the sea, it all depends on the current and providence, I heard that 10,000 eel fry, in the end only one successfully "landed".

So to catch them, you just need to drag the net to the surface of the sea, so as to avoid catching other fish.

However, there is a skill in catching them, choosing when the tide is high and fishing at high tide, so that the waves will push the eel fry into the estuary.

The trawler drove like this for half an hour.

Li Duoyu stopped the fishing boat and placed three layers of screens on the board, each with a different screen density.

This is specifically used to screen eel fry, because it is not only the eel fry that are caught, but also other marine life.

After the first net was put away, Li Duoyu poured a net bag the size of a face plate onto the sieve.

With the sound of a bang, at a glance, there were dragonhead fish, shrimp and pink eels.

Li Duoyu put away the dragon head fish first, this fish is also called tofu fish, this thing looks soft, but it is actually a very fierce predator.

This fish is used to make sour bamboo shoots and tofu soup, which is very delicious, and the taste of pre-salt dragon fish is also excellent.

After cleaning up these trash fish, Li Duoyu has seen a lot of small transparent fish that are as transparent as fans, about seven or eight centimeters long, writhing around on the net.

Chen Wenchao on the side asked:

"Brother Yu, is this an eel fry?"

Li Duoyu gently pinched a small eel fry with his hand and put it into the small bucket on the side: "Well, this is the eel fry we want to catch, when you catch it, be light, don't pinch it to death." ”

Chen Wenchao nodded.

After five minutes of fishing, the two finally caught only about half a bowl of fry.

"Very little." Chen Wenchao couldn't help but say.

"Not a lot." Li Duoyu smiled, there are about hundreds of eel fry in this bowl, which is already a lot.

In more than ten years, I will be able to catch so many in one net, and I will wake up with a smile in my dreams.

In later generations, eel fry accounted for half of the overall cost of eel farming, and fishing for eel fry became an important income for local fishermen.

At its most expensive, local eel fry were sold for thirty or forty yuan, which was more expensive than gold at that time.

But in this era, no one robs you, you can catch as much as you want.
