Xiaoyao Nongjiazi
Chapter 19
Because it is the first time to raise red crayfish, the shrimp seedlings have to be found by themselves, and the caught red crayfish are stocked on the flooded fields that have not yet been constructed. After the shrimp ponds are dug and limed, they are all put back. In this way, the construction period will be diverged successively.
Flooded fields are low-lying and waterlogging is inevitable, so the foundation of shrimp ponds must be elevated. This not only prevents backflow of water in the ditches during the rainy season during the flood season, but also provides a place for the excavated pond mud, which can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone.
The difference between shrimp ponds and fish ponds is not small. For the convenience of management, each shrimp pond has similar specifications, all of which are one acre in size.In the middle of the pond, build a few low dikes that are slightly higher than the water surface and are not connected to the pond base. A layer of dense rattan nets should be covered on the pond base to prevent the red crayfish from escaping.Both the pond base and the low embankment are wider than ordinary ridges, and there is a layer of fine mesh on the water outlet mask, the reason is the same as above.
As for why this is the case, Zhong Qingran's remarks are the thoughts he got from observing the red crayfish these days.Others know that they can only say that the kid is whimsical, what else can they say?
Shrimp ponds are no better than paddy fields. Villagers in paddy fields can catch loach and eels at will, but not in shrimp ponds and fish ponds. Fish and shrimp are specially raised for sale. How can villagers move them again?
Along the way, Zhong Qingran has already seen many children catching red crayfish in the rice fields. Fortunately, they bought the flooded land in time, otherwise it is really hard to say how many red crayfish will be left in it.
In this regard, Zhong Qingran had expected that the little snails would be nothing more than that, and the villagers who wanted to eat red crayfish would probably be disappointed.However, no one has tried it himself. If Zhong's family tried to stop him, they would just sneer at them, who might say something about them behind their backs.Because of this concern, the Zhong family just watched quietly, feeling sorry for those red crayfish that were about to become garbage. If they made them into food, how much would they sell for?
Not only Mr. Zhong and others, but even Zhong Qingran felt distressed.Although red crayfish can be seen everywhere, there is a limit to that.In a modern shrimp pond, the yield of crayfish per mu is only between [-] and [-] jin. How much you can harvest depends on the number of shrimp larvae stocked and the farming techniques.
It is conceivable that the wild red crayfish that can be harvested in an ordinary paddy field is extremely limited.This is not only because the red crayfish has the habit of bullying the small ones, but also because the red crayfish is destructive to rice. When it reproduces to a certain extent, it will be caught by the villagers as pests.Flooded fields are a special case, where they are vacant all year round and have the highest density of wild red crayfish among all fields.
Hewan Village has a large population, and the villagers who want to eat catch some. How many red crayfish will be harmed?It was all white money, no wonder the Zhong family felt heartbroken when they thought that Qian had grown wings and flew away.
The waterlogged field under Zhong Qingran's name has already started construction, and the Zhong family is not behind, but the number of people is less.Now Zhong's family is busy selling red crayfish to make money. If a few strong laborers dig the soil and go from village to household to do business at the same time, a day or two is fine in the scorching heat, but it will be unbearable if it takes a long time.
Mr. Zhong thought about earning a sum of money first before everyone's freshness was over. With the money in hand, he would be confident, and if he wanted to do something later, he would not be so restrained like he is now.
Seeing that Mr. Zhong, who was nearly fifty years old, went to work in the fields, while he stood by and watched, Zhong Qingran felt a little guilty for no reason.In order to prevent the onlookers from focusing their attention on himself, after he realized this, he immediately took his siblings away.
Zhong Qingran thought that going on like this would not work, he had to do something.From childhood to adulthood in his previous life, at most he accompanied his grandfather to plant some herbs, and he only learned some of them. The instinctive reaction couldn't be corrected, every time his grandfather dragged him to concoct leeches as medicine, he wanted to retreat three points.
It can be seen from this that it is impossible for Zhong Qingran to become a farmer's uncle in a down-to-earth manner. It can only improve the living conditions of the family and earn more money to hire day laborers for help.
With a decision in his heart, Zhong Qingran's enthusiasm for making money was unprecedentedly high.Now he only has pocket money from his grandma, and he can't do anything.But he is not too worried. Yesterday, he only made more than 600 coins from the trial sale. It may be more and more difficult for other villages to do business in the future. Hewan Village should not be able to do it. He sold it twice at noon and evening today, and he must have earned more than yesterday. .
It's a pity that such a profitable life can only last for a month, and the red crayfish in Hewan Village will decrease rapidly with tens of hundreds of catties caught every day. Coupled with the villagers' tentative catching, the time to support this sales will be even longer. short.
However, this is also good, as the number is small, which means that the selling price of red crayfish will increase by then.Even if the price cannot be raised to the level of modern times, the wholesale price of red crayfish is several times that of ordinary fish, at least it can be increased by a few percent.Of course, this cannot be compared with the selling price of the restaurant.
This is Zhong Qingran's most conservative estimate. If the ginger condiment is recognized by others, then selling the finished product of red crayfish is not as good as selling the ingredients directly to the restaurant to make money.Different customer groups lead to a huge disparity in selling prices. In rural areas, it can only be sold at a low price. It is estimated that few people are willing to buy it if the price is raised.
Zhong Qingran had already told his grandfather and Zhong Qingshu and Zhong Qingzhu about the various precautions in the construction of the shrimp pond yesterday, and it would be easy for him to leave now.
After a few months, Zhong Qingran understood that if he wanted to live a comfortable life in the Great Zhou Dynasty, he had no power at all.He himself is not interested in being an official, besides, he just wants to be an official, but he may not be.The imperial examination is like passing five tests and beheading six generals. The difficulty is not so high. With his foundation in the modern Academy of Fine Arts, let him take the imperial examination and let him fail.
Zhong Qingran's body is still half a teenager, but he has the thinking of an adult. If he wants to learn poetry, songs and Fu, the essentials of scriptures like a child, this learning speed may not be as fast as that of a native child. Compete with them for this spot.If he wants to achieve his goal, he can only focus on his family and friends.
The only brothers who are close to Zhong Qingran are the fifth younger brother Zhong Qinghan and the sixth cousin Zhong Qingcheng. The sixth cousin is still young, so he can only teach him how to play. Zhong Qinghan can be enlightened at this age.But all of this is just Zhong Qingran's unilateral wish. If the two of them are not willing, can he still force it?He understands the principle of not doing to others what you do not want to be done to others. He himself does not want to take the imperial examination, a single-plank bridge that thousands of students cannot cross. There is no reason to force people to go.
As for Zhong Qingshu and Zhong Qingzhu, haha, they are both masters similar to their predecessors. Other paths may work, but the path of civil servants will not work at all.As for whether there are other areas where he is good at, it is not yet clear, and only time can be tested.
Besides, the Zhong family has a ready candidate, Uncle Zhong Zhengxin.It's a pity that Zhong Qingran didn't have much contact with him, so it's hard to judge, so he can only put it aside for now.
"Third brother, listen, why does this voice sound so motherly? You won't be arguing with someone again?" Zhong Qinghan grabbed Zhong Qingran's clothes with his small hands, his expression a little tangled.
Zhong Qingran understood that when he was recuperating from his injuries, he never left home, and he had heard his mother scolding others at a high voice, and it was not surprising to hear it again this time across an alley.
Zhong Qingran didn't intend to go to the street market at first, but now he was a little curious, so he couldn't hold back, turned the corner and walked towards the bustling street market.
It's only mid-morning now, and it's not even lunch time, and Ming Shi has just arrived.Who would have thought that as soon as she got there, she would see something that made her very angry. Right next to the bunk that the Zhong family rented yesterday, there was also a stall, and it happened that they were selling small snails.That's all, what's more, the woman lowered the price by a penny.If this can be tolerated, then it's not the Ming family who just fucks with others in a few words.
"Hong Shan's family, what do you mean by that, is it possible to make enemies with my family?"
"Look at what you said, it's just selling something. Why is it that your family can sell it, and my family is not allowed to sell it? Folks, look, Zhengren's family is so domineering. Does it mean that all the business belongs to her family to satisfy her? I So scary!"
Hong Shan's daughter-in-law is obviously not a good idiot, she has a sharp tongue, and Ming is very angry, her chest rises and falls obviously, with Hong Shan's daughter-in-law crossing her hands to protect her chest, she looks like she is being bullied, Ming is really I was so angry that my lungs were about to explode.
Ming also knew that she couldn't get a cheap deal with her words, so she was going to offer a plan of trying everything, and rolled up her sleeves. Fortunately, there were other Zhong family members around, and they pulled each other to try to persuade them.
The Zhong family is also the Ming family who is the most clumsy and tongue-tied, and they use force if they can't say it. The other daughters-in-law are not willing to cause trouble except to show weakness. Someone bullied my sister-in-law in public?
"Hong Shan's family, what you said seems to be reasonable, but it doesn't make sense. Folks, let's argue. She wants to sell things. We can't control this. People who are reasonable will talk to my father-in-law, okay? Lai Xiaoluo's way of eating has been passed down from our family, isn't this a small request too much?"
"Yeah, it really should be done!"
"Well, that's right."
……
Most of the people who can come out to hang out at this time are women and children who are idle. There are not many people in the market, so it is not bad to get a few people to agree with.
Hong didn't wait for Hong Shan's daughter-in-law to speak, and then continued: "This is the first, and the second is the price reduction. This is to ask all the neighbors who have sold things, if someone is at your booth. , what kind of mood should it be? Not to mention, everyone is from the village, how can there be such a business? Shiwa Niang, do you think this is the case?"
Shi Wa Niang was guarding the butcher's stall, and saw that there were many people around here, so she came over to have a look, she didn't intend to participate in it, but she didn't expect to see something when she watched the excitement.Now that she has been named by the Hong family, she can't be a coward.
"It's needless to say, let's talk about the reason first, if the reason doesn't make sense, hehe, I don't need to teach you, everyone knows what to do."
Hong Shan's daughter-in-law's face turned red and then pale, and she refused to give up: "This is not the Zhong family's territory. I can sell it at whatever price I like. Can you control it? Does the Zhong family want to bully the few with more, and bully the lesser?" I can't be a woman."
Now the Hong family is in the wrong place, is it really going to be a full martial arts show?
