On the other side of the embankment, construction has been under construction for more than a month, and a small sea pond has been enclosed.

This pond is about the size of two standard football fields, about 20 acres.

What Li Duoyu didn't expect was that his brother-in-law Chen Dongqing also came, he had a cigarette in his mouth, looked at the pond in front of him, and fell into deep thought.

Due to the relatively large sea breeze, half of the smoke was smoked out by the sea breeze.

Zhang Mingsheng, his brother-in-law, who was wearing a white vest and was black, said: "Duoyu, what's the matter, I did a good job." ”

Li Duoyu gave a thumbs up and praised in the local dialect: "Yaba." ”

Zhang Mingsheng grinned, since he came to Dandan Island, he was really happy, and most importantly, their family was also very happy.

Although three daughters were born.

But there are really few people on the island who will say that he can't give birth to a son to stimulate him, but many people joke about whether to set a baby kiss.

In Xiagang Village, his family has two fishing boats, and he has made a lot of money over the years, but he is not happy.

When drinking with the brothers, the other party may come up, and the other party suddenly says: "Mingsheng is not good for you, or I will try it, maybe I will give birth to a handle." ”

Zhang Mingsheng knew that the other party might have drunk too much, but he was really angry, so he directly poured half a bottle of sorghum wine and beat this bastard hard.

And there is a bad habit in Xiagang Village, that is, if a boy is not born, he will not hold a wedding banquet.

Splash since marrying him.

The wedding banquet was never held.

In short, in that place, if a boy is not born, it is like being guilty, and you have to be careful to even speak.

A person like him, who gave birth to three girls, has no status in the village at all, as if anyone can step on it.

Now that he has arrived on Dandan Island, Zhang Mingsheng's whole family is much more relaxed, and the eldest and second children laugh happily every day.

The most important thing is that the days suddenly have hope, and his intuition tells him that Li Duoyu spends so much money to build a pond, and he must do something big.

Uncle Chen Dongqing looked at the big pond in front of him and asked, "How much did it cost to build such a pond?" ”

Li Duoyu replied: "This mouthful, it's almost three thousand five like this." ”

Chen Dongqing sighed: "It's really generous, such a big pond, what do you plan to raise?" ”

Li Duoyu didn't bother to pretend anymore: "Raise some blue crabs first, and then put some shrimp later, and the two will be polycultured together." ”

Chen Dongqing was stunned: "You are really a talent, I just went to the next province last week to investigate, and I just wanted to come back and tell you that blue crabs can be mixed with shrimp, you already know." ”

After Chen Dongqing finished speaking, he found that the cigarette in his mouth was at least half smoked by the sea breeze, and he flicked the cigarette holder into the sea.

"This broken smoke really doesn't need to be smoked."

Seeing his uncle rummaging through his pockets looking for cigarettes, Li Duoyu took out a Huazi from his jacket pocket and handed it to him.

"That's right, I'll see that I'm out of smoke in the future, so take the initiative to know if it's not."

Li Duoyu glanced at him: "Give you a cigarette to smoke, and you will be poor, believe it or not, I will kick you down." ”

Chen Dongqing took a puff of his cigarette and asked, "Do you know how to raise blue crabs and shrimps?" ”

Li Duoyu nodded.

"It should be counted, I'm in Taizhou, someone taught me, Comrade Holly wants to teach me how to raise it, right?"

Chen Dongqing said disgustedly: "I don't know how to raise it at all, I'll teach you yarn, by the way, I came to you today, mainly because there are two things."

The first thing was asked by Director Zhang, not long ago, isn't it a red tide, Director Zhang is afraid that the oysters on your side will be affected, and asks if you can keep up with the oyster seedlings here. ”

Li Duoyu nodded: "Yes, it's not a big problem, the oysters are half alive, Xiaochao is already making oyster cakes, and the oysters should be hung in another week." ”

"That's good, if there is a problem on your side, the institute will be quite embarrassed, by the way, there is one more thing, the institute wants to sign a comprehensive cooperation agreement with your Minlong company, and intends to set up a base on the island, I don't know if you want to?"

Li Duoyu squinted his eyes and said, "Such a big thing, give me some time to think about it." ”

"Consider a yarn, cooperate with us, you won't suffer, what is there to consider."

"Think about it for a day or two, so that I am more stable, if you say it, I will directly agree, so it seems that I am not forced."

Chen Dongqing was stunned. "Force, what is it?"

"Pretending to be in style."

Chen Dongqing glanced at him: "Where did you learn the messy things, I'm leaving." ”

"Leave so soon, don't go to the house and sit down."

Chen Dongqing waved his hand: "Don't go, in the past, I was also forced, but now I can't get you, I will be embarrassed to go to your house." ”

Li Duoyu took out the cigarette in his jacket pocket: "This bag of Huazi has just been opened, do you want it." ”

Chen Dongqing, who hadn't walked a few steps, retreated: "Director Li, being a man is righteousness, buy more in the future." ”

Li Duoyu looked at the pond in front of him, it looked really big, but compared to the real pond bosses in his previous life.

These 20 acres of small ponds can not be on the table at all, Li Duoyu once saw 30,000 or 40,000 acres of ponds in a place called "Longying Wai", at a glance, there is no end at all, that is called a spectacular.

However, due to geographical limitations, the tidal flat area of Dandan Island is not very large, and it is destined to be impossible to carry out such a large-scale operation.

Li Duoyu didn't want to engage in such a large scale, if the tidal flats of Dandan Island were eaten by him, and the money was earned by him, it would be no different from the Wang brothers in the previous life.

Li Duoyu does not intend to take up too many resources, and will leave at least half of them for the villagers.

The short-term economic benefits of enclosing embankments and ponds are certainly not as good as those brought by eel farming and sea farming, but it is more suitable for long-term development.

In addition to kelp, oysters and eels, Li Duoyu believes that these ponds will become a shining business card of Dandandao in the future.

At this moment, Li Duoyu found that on the embankment, a tractor kept emitting black smoke and stopped on the embankment and could not move.

Li Duoyu rushed over to take a look and found that the tractor master was lying at the bottom of the tractor, looking like he was repairing, his whole body was already covered with diesel, and he even had his face.

"Master Zhang, is the engine broken?"

The tractor master said: "It may be a little problematic, but it should be repaired by getting a spare part in the county." ”

Li Duoyu really admires their generation, because almost all of them have driver's licenses.

And many people have participated in training and can repair tractors by themselves, just like the uncle and the third uncle can also repair tugboat engines and fishing boats.

After determining that the repair could not be completed, Master Zhang controlled the direction of the tractor, and Li Duoyu followed more than a dozen villagers to push the tractor.

"Ready, come along."

"Let's go."

In less than ten minutes, the tractor was pushed to the shore.

Seeing the sunburned and sweaty villagers on the shore, Li Duoyu couldn't help laughing.

It's a good time.

With oil and water, everyone looks quite sturdy.

Li Duoyu is still very profound about what happened in those ten years, at that time, even if there was oil and water at home, he didn't dare to eat more, he was as thin as a monkey, and he didn't have much strength to work.

After leaving the pond, Li Duoyu came to the second-hand fishing tackle shop Lao Chen.

"Lao Chen, how many cages are left?"

After seeing Li Duoyu, Lao Chen Mei opened his eyes and smiled: "There are a lot of fish, many fish, you don't catch many fish, what are you doing with the ground cage?" ”

Lao Chen has been in a good mood recently, and the amount of fishing gear sold in the past two weeks is more than the whole year combined, which is all due to the village director in front of him.

"I'm going to catch some baby blue crab seedlings."

Lao Chen suddenly asked: "You surrounded such a big pond, wouldn't it really be for the purpose of raising blue crabs?" ”

"That's right."

"You really do everything." Lao Chen sighed: "The investment is too big, I don't have that money, otherwise I want to raise it with you." ”

"Don't worry, I'll try the water first, maybe it's not easy to raise, I'll die of raising."

Lao Chen glanced at him: "Tianhou Temple, just halfway up the mountain, don't say such unlucky words." ”

Li Duoyu grinned.

Then he bought ten ground cages from Lao Chen, and then walked in the direction of the mangrove forest.

And at this moment, the stone ran up panting.

"Brother Yu, where did you run just now, I just looked for you."

Li Duoyu looked at the stone puzzled: "What are you looking for me, is there something wrong?" ”

Shi made a bitter face: "I don't know why I'm looking for you, anyway, I'm so confused now, and I have a sense of peace with you." ”

Li Duoyu was speechless directly, and couldn't help but sigh that it was good to be young: "You kid, you won't want to do something to me." ”

"Don't you dare to give me a hundred guts, Brother Yu, what are you doing with such a cage?"

"Go catch some blue crab fry."

Shi smiled: "I also have a lot of ground cages there, I will take them with you to catch them." ”

"How many strips do you have?"

"About twenty."

"Then hurry up, when the time comes, catch the blue crab seedlings and sell them to me directly."

"Okay, I'll go back and get it right away." The stone was entangled and asked, "Brother Yu, do you think it is possible for me and Shanshan?" ”

Li Duoyu frowned and said, "How do I know, don't ask me about feelings." ”

After the blue crab holds its eggs, it has to go to the sea area with a higher salinity to spawn, which is a bit similar to the eel.

But as a fisherman, he also found everything interesting, and that was that the habits of marine creatures were interesting.

For example, deep-sea fish like to run to the offshore sea to spawn, such as hairtail, turtles, horseshoe crabs, and so on.

Offshore ones, on the other hand, prefer to breed in the deep sea.

Li Duoyu thinks that this should have something to do with natural enemies, and if the blue crab spawns offshore, it is estimated that it will directly become a snack for natural enemies.

Crab seedlings are generally divided into two types, one is called big-eyed larvae, and the locals are generally called white seedlings and airplane seedlings, that is, crab seedlings with long tails.

This kind of crab fry is very small, just like Daphnia, but in the previous life, the price was not cheap at all, and one could be sold for one or two cents.

The salinity of seawater required for each "metamorphosis" process of blue crab seedlings is different, and due to the complexity of the growth environment, this also leads to the fact that the blue crab seedlings have not completely broken through artificial breeding, and are mainly based on catching wild blue crab seedlings.

The method of harvesting bigeye larvae is similar to that of eel fry, and a large number of blue crab fry can be caught with a net.

It is not difficult to catch crab seedlings, and even a copy net can be copied in the tidal flats, which is a pain in selecting crab seedlings.

Because what is caught is often not only blue crab fry, but also sea monks, sea spiders, flat crabs, and stone crabs.

If you don't know how to do it, you won't be able to distinguish it at all, and if you don't know it, you will sell it, and maybe you will be scolded by the seedling harvesters.

Li Duoyu remembered that in his previous life, there were so many people on Dandan Island, who specialized in fishing for various kinds of seedlings for a living.

From December to April, eel fry are fished, and from April to October, blue crab fry are fished.

And these seedling catchers often only need to catch a few pieces of water to cover a year's living expenses.

Another type of crab fry is called turtle, which is a slightly larger crab that already has a carapace.

It is not easy for blue crabs to grow so big, and they have many natural enemies.

If you come across a pufferfish, you can just bite it one by one, just like eating a snack, and Wangchao is also a good crab catcher.

And the most terrifying should be those long-legged and long-billed seabirds, which are definitely a nightmare for all kinds of crab seedlings.

This kind of blue crab fry is generally caught only in mangrove areas, and generally does not come out during the day, and only comes out at night.

And some experienced masters generally dig directly, Li Duoyu does not have this technology, so he will not do this work.

Li Duoyu stepped barefoot on the tidal flats of the mangrove forest, and the tidal flats of the mangrove tidal flats and the tidal flats where the oysters are farmed are completely two worlds, and there are more and richer creatures here.

But fishermen don't like this kind of place, because the mangrove forest is really smelly and dirty, and when you walk there, you may get birds pooping on your head.

And every step is particularly tormenting, and there are all kinds of messy trees, if you step on it, it is called a pain.

After walking a few steps, Li Duoyu found that there were footprints in front of him, and followed the footprints for a while.

I saw a clay figure digging a pit there, half of his body was in the pit, and he could still say to himself: "Drill so deep, if you don't get a catty, are you sorry for me?" ”

The clay figure dug so seriously that he didn't even notice that there was already a person standing there watching him dig the pit.

", dare to clamp me."

In the next second, the clay figure wriggled out of the hole, still holding a blue crab with large claws in his hand.

Although he was wearing gloves, he was still screaming, and Zhao Erniu hurriedly put the blue crab in the seawater.

After the blue crab reached the water, it would loosen its claws when it felt safe, and when it was about to slip, it was instantly held down by Zhao Erniu, and then thrown onto the tidal flat.

Immediately afterwards, a cloud of mud was directly pasted on the part of the blue crab's eye.

"Your uncle, I'm bleeding, and you still want to run?"

The blue crab that was pasted with mud lost its vision and did not dare to move directly, but held the crab claws high to defend.

Zhao Erniu directly grabbed the last pair of feet of the blue crab, pulled out a straw rope from his waist, and tied the blue crab in an instant.

"Erniu, your skills are good."

After hearing the voice, Zhao Erniu turned his head sharply, only to find Li Duoyu standing behind him.

"it, scare people to death."

"Brother Yu, why did you come here in the mangrove forest?"

When Zhao Erniu saw the cage in Li Duoyu's hand, his eyes widened and said: "There are so many cages, you are so rich, you won't come to rob me of my job." ”

Li Duoyu looked at the clay figure in front of him and said with a smile:

"I want to learn from you to dig blue crabs, and when I go back, I guess I can only sleep on the ground, I'm here to catch blue crab seedlings, and I won't rob your big blue crab, but if I catch the cage, then there's no way."

Zhao Erniu suddenly remembered what Li Duoyu said earlier and asked him to help catch blue crab seedlings.

"Brother Yu, I'm good at catching blue crab fry, how much do I charge."

Li Duoyu thought about it.

"It's about a penny a piece."

Zhao Erniu's eyes widened, as if a splash of wealth had descended on his head, he didn't expect happiness to come so suddenly.

In the past, the number of crab seedlings was really not small, but recently, the number of crab seedlings is even more, with an average of 30 crab seedlings in each cage.

Before, the kind of crab seedlings the size of a fingernail were of no use to him at all, and if they were caught, they were all released directly.

I didn't think that Brother Yu would collect a penny now, thinking of this, Zhao Erniu suddenly felt so heartbroken, in the past two years alone, the crab seedlings he released added up, at least more than 100,000.

Thinking of this, Zhao Erniu's heart seemed to be dripping blood.

Now he has a total of 30 ground cages in his hand, if there are only 30 crab seedlings in each ground cage, the income of the blue crab seedlings that day will be ten yuan, which is more profitable than him digging big blue crabs.

When the two brothers broke up, the newly bought house land was taken by Zhao Dahai, and Zhao Erniu was assigned to the old house.

And after the separation, the two brothers fought in order not to meet, and swore to each other.

Zhao Dahai can't go to the mangrove forest to make money, and Zhao Erniu can't go to the sea to fish to make money.

Zhao Dahai wanted to go back to the original house after falling out with the widow, but Zhao Erniu naturally refused, so he wanted to see that he was not good at fishing alone and couldn't make money, so he built that piece of land into a house.

didn't want to kill a net machine halfway, giving Zhao Dahai a ray of life, and now he is fishing desperately every day.

Yesterday, he used a net machine to fish, and earned more than ten yuan a day, and he deliberately showed off at the dock, saying that he would definitely build a new house within a year, and when the time came, he would not let him in.

Recently, seeing Zhao Dahai making more and more money, Zhao Erniu was so anxious in his heart, for fear that he would be compared to him, and when the time came, if his new house was really built, he would lose face.

During this time, I also worked very hard to catch blue crabs, earth dragons, and tide watching on this side of the mangrove forest.

Sometimes, he would pick up some bird eggs and sell them for money, and recently he was planning to raise some sea ducks on the mangrove side.

Zhao Erniu cautiously asked the God of Wealth in front of him: "Brother Yu, how much do you have to collect in total for this blue crab seed." ”

Li Duoyu pondered for a while and replied: "In the past two months, I will collect almost 50,000 to 100,000 of them." ”

Zhao Erniu's eyes widened: "So much." ”

Li Duoyu smiled and asked, "Can't you do it?" ”

"No problem, as long as you are willing to accept it, it is not a problem for me to get you two or three thousand a day."

"By the way, how many blue crabs did you catch today?"

Zhao Erniu scratched his head and said: "I only caught three today, but they are all quite big, there are two acres, all of them are ointment." ”

"If no one decides, just sell me all, it just so happens that our family hasn't eaten blue crabs for a long time."

Zhao Erniu said with a smile: "No one decides, that Brother Yu, I won't weigh it, these three blue crabs will be given to you for three yuan." ”

"Yes, if you go back to the village, just give the blue crab to my mother, it's fine."

"Understood, Brother Yu."
