The fairy of space also farms
Chapter 76 Delicious Sturgeon
After the owner's house collected the nets, all the people watching the excitement by the edge of the weir pond all swarmed down to the pond to catch fish.
Xu Ning and Xun Xu also followed.Others are interested in catching fish, but Xu Ning is interested in finding snails and clam shells in the mud.There are many kinds of fish in weir ponds, both omnivorous and herbivorous. In fact, it is not conducive to the growth of snails and clam shells, but as long as the snails and clam shells can survive, they are all very big. Used to make snails.
Xun Xu followed the big guys to fish, and he was very excited, because the atmosphere was very good, and everyone had a kind of Taobao mentality in it.Xun Xu caught two big catfish, and a big black fish. The big fish and the small fish caught a bucket, and brought it to Xu Ning to claim credit.Seeing that Xun Xu's face was full of black ideas splashed by mud and water, Xu Ning rolled his eyes with a smile: "Do you have a sense of accomplishment?"
Xun Xu wiped his face with his sleeve, smiled, glanced at the crowd who were still struggling in the mud, and said, "No more catching, enough is enough. I'll pick snails with you."
Picking up snails is also very interesting. If you see a sunken hole in the wet mud and dig it with your fingers, you will be able to dig out a snail.Or if you see a crack like a crack in the wet mud and shovel it down with your hands, it must be a clam shell.
Xun Xu saw a big crack in the wet mud in front of him, which was longer than the palm of his hand, and hurried over.Xu Ning also saw it, and he said with a smile: "You think beautifully, how can there be such a big clam shell, that one must not be."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xun Xu shoveled out a large disc from the wet mud. The clam shell was still slowly taking in the ax he spit out of the shell, and the diameter was larger than the bucket Xu Ning carried. .Xun Xu smiled very proudly: "Hey, do you think so? Is this a clam shell?"
Xu Ning laughed: "I didn't expect it to be true." Xu Ning had never seen such a big clam shell.
Xun Xu said, "There should be a pearl inside."
"Really?"
Xun Xu said: "Go back and open it to find out. If it is true, it will save me a lot of trouble."
"Why do you want pearls?"
"I'm useful." Xun Xu smiled mysteriously.
The two of them walked less than halfway along the Yantang, when Xu Ning found that their net bags could no longer hold them: "Enough, enough. Let's go back." It's good to try something new, if you eat too much, you will get bored up.
"Okay. Shall we eat snails at night?" Xun Xu had a deep memory of the only time he ate snails, and because it was too troublesome, Xu Ning never did it again.
Xu Ning said: "It takes two days for the snails to spit out mud. Let's eat the clam shells first."
"Clam shells are fine too."
Xu Ning carried the bucket, Xun Xu packed the snails and clam shells in a net bag, and the two went back along the way they came from.Zhou Shusen saw that they were covered in mud and asked, "Why did you two go?"
Xu Ning smiled: "I went to catch fish, there is a weir pond over there to clear the bottom."
"Really, why didn't you call me?" Zhou Shusen said.
Xun Xu said: "There are more over there, you go and have a look."
Zhou Shusen really went there. Now that he is writing a novel, he needs all kinds of materials.Xun Xu stopped him: "Bring a bucket, otherwise where would you put the fish if you caught it?"
Xu Ning and Xun Xu washed the fish and snails and mussels roughly with water first, and then poured the fish into the big foot basin. The basin was full of fish, large and small, and they were all extremely fresh.The two went to take a bath, changed into clean clothes, and then cleaned the fish and snails.
Ah Xuan and Xiao Bao smelled the smell of fish, and they had been squatting by the side of the basin for a long time, licking their noses non-stop.The two masters hadn't come out for a long time. The little leopard got impatient and stretched out his paws to catch fish in the big basin, but the fish didn't catch, wet his paws, and left evidence of crime. He stretched out his paws to Ah Xuan. Xuan glanced at it and ignored it, who told it to be impatient and unruly.
Xun Xu came out first, saw the little leopard's wet paws, and stared at it with rounded eyes: "You don't follow the rules, want to steal it?"
Little Leopard let out a flattering cry, this guy loves fish the most, and when he sees fish to eat, he will give up all his morals and forget the rules.
Xun Xu walked over, grabbed the little leopard, and threw it into the big basin. The little leopard "meow—" blew its fur and struggled in the water in a panic.Xun Xu stood beside him with his hips akimbo and laughed, Ah Xuan looked at Xun Xu who gloated at his misfortune with a blank face.After a while, the little leopard realized that he was like a mouse that fell into the oil tank, surrounded by fish, haha, there was a fish to eat, so he quickly stretched out his claws to catch the fish, but the fish was very flexible and slippery in the water Very, not at all.
Xun Xu stood aside and watched Xiaobao's performance: "Catch it, it's yours if you catch it."
Xiao Bao turned to stare at Xun Xu, and meowed, which meant: What you said is true?
Xun Xu said, "Of course. I caught all the fish, and I made the decision."
The little leopard's eyes were shining, and he stepped on the basin with his hind legs, straightened up, and threw his two front paws at the biggest black fish in the basin, only to hear a splash, the water splashed the sky, and the little leopard was also caught by the black fish. Its tail hit its head, and it was a little dizzy. It let out a scream of "meow--", jumped out of the basin, and looked at the big basin with lingering fear.
Xun Xu laughed loudly: "Calling you greedy, do you have that big fish yourself? Just want to eat big fish!"
Ah Xuan walked over and stuck out his tongue to help the little leopard lick the wet hair on his body. The little leopard whined, trembling with fear in his voice.
Xu Ning wiped his hair with a towel and came out: "What's going on? I heard Little Leopard's screams from afar."
"Greedy. I said whichever one it catches is its own, and it will grab the biggest one. What do you think I can do?" Xun Xu spread his hands innocently.
Xu Ning looked at the wet little leopard: "Did you play tricks on it again?" He picked up a hand towel on the window sill and threw it to Xunxu, "Wipe it dry, otherwise Ah Xuan will catch a cold soon." Fighting you hard."
Xun Xu looked at Xu Ning, then at A Xuan, and sure enough, that guy was staring at him with a serious face, so he squatted down embarrassingly, grabbed the little leopard and brushed its fur.Xiao Bao was born to be at odds with Xun Xun, and his whole body felt uncomfortable after being rubbed by him. Xun Xun said, "Be honest, I won't let you move around. Be good, and I'll recite a dry water spell for you."
The little leopard really didn't move.Xun Xu threw the towel in his hand and whistled, and the hair on Xiaobao's body was indeed dry.Xu Ning washed the snails and looked at him in surprise: "What else do you have?"
"I've used this before, have you forgotten?" When Xun Xu had long hair before, every time he didn't bother to wipe his hair after washing, he would always chant the dry water spell.
Xu Ning thought about it, he seemed to have forgotten about it, he looked up at Xun Xu's hair: "Your hair is a little long again, when did you go to cut it?"
Xun Xu shook his head: "Are you going to cut it again? Let's cut it someday. By the way, what about the hair I cut before? Where did you put it for me?" He remembered that Xu Ning didn't sell it.
Xu Ning said, "I put it together with the sheep's head. What do you want hair for?"
"No reason, just ask." I just remembered the days when I didn't deal with Xu Ning very much, as if I was quite bullying him at that time, but his family Xu Ning was kind-hearted and hard-working, so he was able to tolerate his existence .
Xu Ning said suddenly: "When you first came here, you pulled [-] to [-] yuan, which is really annoying."
Xun Xu giggled: "Is there any?" He thought to himself that it was broken, and it was time to settle accounts after the fall.
Sure enough, Xu Ning's eyes widened: "Why not? You pinched me a few times!"
Xun Xu stretched out his neck: "Come on, pinch it back for you."
Xu Ning looked at his neck, and then at his muddy hands: "I'm not that crazy. I have suffered so much that the whole world owes him, and I pinch people indiscriminately. It's the behavior of a madman."
Xun Xu looked at Xu Ning with innocent eyes: "At that time, did you treat me as a lunatic?"
Xu Ning laughed: "Otherwise, how can I explain it?"
Xun Xuxin said, my famous name in my life was ruined just like that, why did I feel like I had taken the wrong medicine at that time, so fierce, if I knew it, I wouldn't be so dragging, but in the end it still fell into his hands and was beaten He remembered it in his heart and was going to laugh for a lifetime.
Xu Ning was using a knife to cut open the clam shell, cut open the clam shell, scraped off the meat inside with a knife, washed it, and fried it or scalded it. It tasted delicious, just like eating pork belly.Of course, you can cook it with the shell first, the shell will split open automatically, and the meat inside can also be removed, but this is not as delicious as the fresh one.Xu Ning said, "Didn't you say there are pearls in this clam shell? Get it yourself."
"Okay, I'll do it." Xun Xu washed his hands, took a knife, carefully cut open the edge of the clam shell, and then forcefully broke it open with his hands.
Xu Ning poked his head over: "Where is the pearl?"
Xun Xu touched it with his fingers, and finally found a hard object the size of a finger on the side of the clam shell, washed it off with water: "Look, is it a pearl?"
Xu Ning looked at the pearl in Xun Xu's hand, and opened his mouth round. This pearl is really big, with a diameter of 2 cm. It is not as round as the usual pearls, but has a small peduncle-like protrusion The thing looks like a drop of tear, the color is flesh pink, exuding a soft pearl luster. "What a pearl, how many years does it take for such a big pearl?"
"I don't know, the years should not be short."
Xu Ning said: "This is a naturally formed pearl. It is very rare. This pearl should be worth a lot of money."
Xun Xu smiled and said: "Of course it is valuable, it will be even more valuable when I match it with it."
Xu Ning asked: "What do you want to match?"
"Keep it a secret for now." Xun Xu bought it off.
Xu Ning thought to himself, it must have something to do with the herbs he planted upstairs, but he didn't know what he was going to do.
Xun Xu asked, "How do you eat this clam shell?"
Xu Ning said: "Let's have hot pot at noon, and you can go and get some shrimps. We will have dinner after Asen comes back." The weather is getting cooler now. Although it is not yet the season for hot pot, you are not afraid of getting angry and hot up.
When Zhou Shusen came back, his whole body was soaked, as if he had rolled around in the mud. This guy was still laughing and enjoying the experience just now.Xu Ning saw that the fish he caught were not big fish, but there was a round guy lying on the bottom of the bucket. Xu Ning said in surprise: "Huh, you actually caught a turtle?" There are seven or eight weights, which is not too small.
Zhou Shusen chuckled: "Isn't it? In order to snatch this turtle from others, I fell down a lot, but it's worth it, I finally snatched it."
Xu Ning nodded with a smile: "Good luck. What do you do with the turtle? Eat it yourself or sell it?"
Zhou Shusen said: "Of course I eat it myself. If I want to buy it, there is nowhere to buy it."
"Let's have hot pot at noon, Asen, you can have a piece of fish, your skill is better."
"Okay, I'll come back after I take a shower."
The taste of clam meat hot pot is very delicious. Even Zhou Shusen has never eaten this. To be honest, it is also the first time for Xu Ning to eat it, let alone Xun Xu.The taste is really good, and Xun Xu was very happy to eat it. Hearing that there will be turtles to eat at night, let alone the excitement, hehe, finally I can eat turtles again.Seeing him grinning silly, Xu Ning knew what he was up to, and secretly spat in his heart: What a pervert!
As for how happy I am to find the order after eating the turtle, I don't need to go into details.Two days later, Xu Jingshan called Xu Ning and told him that Yantang was about to open the bid.Xu Ning hurriedly put in a sum of money and went to the village committee. He didn't know how much it would cost to contract, but a deposit of several thousand yuan must be indispensable.Xun Xu and Zhou Shusen followed to watch the excitement.
When he arrived at the place, Xu Ning found that there were many unfamiliar faces in the meeting, so he asked the uncle who had been there earlier: "Uncle, why don't many people know each other, are they not from our village?"
Xu Jingshan flicked his cigarette butt: "Yes, there are many people from outside. The owner of the last Baoyantang is not from our village, but from the town."
Xu Ning thought to himself, it seems that the competition is not small. "What was the price of Yantang last year?"
Xu Jingshan said: "Forty thousand a year, this is the price ten years ago."
Xu Ningxin said, it's really not cheap. Now that the prices are soaring, it will only be more expensive.Xu Ning asked, "Uncle, how much do you think you can afford?"
Xu Jingshan said: "I don't know the reserve price yet. Generally speaking, if it is about 1 yuan higher than the reserve price, it should be about the same."
Xu Ning thought to himself, if the weir pond is so big, if the bottom of the pond is not clear, it can produce more than [-] catties of fish a year, and the gross income will be [-] to [-] yuan. It's a lot, but it's mainly for long-term benefits, so it's still a good deal. It's even more cost-effective if you contract to raise shrimp and sturgeon yourself, so Xu Ning is bound to win this weir pond.
When the village officials saw Xu Ning, they greeted him: "Xu Ning, do you also want to contract Qianlongyan?"
Xu Ning smiled: "Let me take a look." Generally speaking, the fish ponds in the village should be contracted by the people of the village, and it is not up to outsiders to intervene.But the villagers also have the idea of the villagers. The more people who contract, the higher the price will be. They will not suffer, so why not do it.
Not long after, the village head announced the reserve price, which was [-] yuan, with no upper limit. This low price was almost twice as high as ten years ago.Xu Ning thought, add ten thousand, forty-five thousand?Can you take it down?Then he dragged Xun Xu, Zhou Shusen and Xu Jingshan to the side to discuss.
Xu Jingshan said: "I think 4 yuan is enough. Don't forget, the previous boss is not willing to contract for [-] yuan. It's too expensive."
Zhou Shusen said: "According to Xu Ning's analysis just now, if the annual gross income is around [-], I think [-] is enough. Otherwise, how can I make money? It's useless."
Xun Xu said, "Xu Ning, how much are you going to pay?"
Xu Ning thought for a while: "I'm going to round up a whole number, [-]."
Xu Jingshan frowned: "If you are like this, it is 1 yuan more than last year. No, it is too expensive. Have you ever calculated the cost? Don't think that it is easy for you to make money, just use it for nothing. Forty-five thousand It's exhausted."
Xu Ning also thought about it: "Okay then, just listen to Uncle."
Xu Ning took a pen and paper, wrote his name and price, and asked Xunxu, "That's it?"
Xun Xu looked at it, took a pen, he already knew how to use Arabic numerals, and changed the "5" into a "6", Xu Ning laughed: "Okay, I listen to you."
Xu Ning put the paper into the standard box, and then waited for the answer to be announced. He felt that the number to be changed in order should be a certainty, because he is a god, and it is too exaggerated to say that the prophet is too exaggerated, but what numbers are written by others? I can still see it.
As a result, when the votes were counted, Xu Ning was not the tallest, he was the second tallest, and the highest was a person from the next village, who paid [-].Xu Ning looked at Xun Xu in surprise, which meant why you didn't see it.Xun Xu scratched his head, saying that I was based on feeling, and didn't read much of what others wrote.
The price tag has come out, and the dust has settled, Xu Ning is a little disappointed, he is determined to win, and the money in his pocket is not spent.On the way back, Xu Jingshan said: "If the bid is [-] yuan, he is a fool. He guards the pond for a year, and he can earn [-] yuan a year, which is incredible."
Xu Ning thought about it, he was right, his price couldn't be higher than [-], he originally planned to pay only [-] at most, so he couldn't get it, even if he was looking for order, he would cheat, seeing the other party's [-] Ten thousand five, I may not be able to offer a higher price than him, because it is not worth the price at all.
Xu Ning thought to himself, those European sturgeons should stay in the space and talk about it later.As a result, the village cadres came to Xu Ning the next day: "Xu Ning, do you still want Qianlongyan?"
Xu Ning was a little surprised: "Didn't it be taken away by someone?"
The village chief smiled a little embarrassedly: "The man paid a deposit of 2000 yuan yesterday, and then came today and said that he would not pay the rent and would return the rent."
"What's wrong?" Xu Ning asked.
The village head laughed and said, "I guess his wife thinks it's too expensive, so I don't agree. When I came here this morning, there were still scratches on my neck. The couple had a fight at home."
Xu Ning laughed: "That means he won't take care of it, let me take care of this Yantang?"
"Yes, if you want to pack it, I will give it to you."
"What about the price?"
The village chief said: "Just follow the price you offered yesterday." In fact, the village chief was very nervous. If Xu Ning was unwilling to accept the bid, he would have to open a second bid. The rest of the bidders were not from the village. It's really hard to find. Generally speaking, the price of the second opening bid is usually kept very low.
Xu Ning smiled: "Okay then. Forty-six thousand, right? How many years is the contract?"
The village chief said, "Ten years."
Xu Ning said, "I want a 15-year contract, does the village chief think it's okay?"
The village chief gritted his teeth: "Okay, just 15 years."
So the two parties signed a contract on the spot to pay the rent. Xu Ning's family now has tens of thousands of dollars in cash at any time, and it is still very easy to pay the rent for a year.
After signing the contract, Xu Ning went up to the back mountain, raised the contract in his hand and laughed at Xun Xu: "Let's go, let's go to our Yantang to have a look."
Xun Xu was surprised: "Why did it become our family again?"
"Hey, what's yours is yours after all, and what's not yours can't be forced." Xu Ning said proudly, "The guy who paid a high price yesterday regretted not wanting it, so he left it to me."
Xun Xu took the contract and looked at it: "It's true, it really belongs to us."
They went to the Yantang to have a look. After a few days, the bottom of the Yantang began to have water more than a meter deep, but the fish could not be released yet. Xu Ning decided to sprinkle lime for disinfection first, and seize the time to build the cages. , driving piles and repairing pallets in the pond, so that there is no need to row a boat to feed.
Xun Xu asked him: "Who will take care of this fish pond in the future? It's far away from home, so I can't take care of it."
Xu Ning said: "This is indeed a problem. Hire someone to take care of it?"
Xun Xu said: "To hire someone, one month can't be less than Asen's. In this way, it's [-] a year, plus the contract price, and the fish fry money. Is it worth it?"
Xu Ning found that Xun Xu was becoming more and more in charge of his own affairs, and he could actually make plans. "Then how about I do it myself?"
Xun Xu said: "Don't think about it! This is good. Let's not raise fish, but raise shrimp and crabs. This year's harvest must be enough. In such a wide place, there must be more shrimp than in the stream. It should be No loss."
Xu Ning gave a thumbs up: "It makes sense. The water area is also more than ten acres wide, and it can raise millions of shrimps, so we won't be afraid that we won't be able to make money."
"There are still crabs." Xun Xu never forgot.
"Okay, there are also crabs. How are the crabs raised? Go and check." See if there is any preparation work that needs to be done, and do it in advance while the water level in the weir pond is low.
Xu Ning went back and checked online. It turned out that crab breeding is very troublesome, and the environment of Yantang is not suitable for raising crabs, but that valley and paddy field can be raised. Xu Ning thinks about raising a little in the valley directly. It is good to raise shrimp and European beluga, and continue to raise loach and eel in paddy fields, and then raise some rice field fish.
Xu Ning missed a lot of information on the Internet. Considering that the ponds are completely used for raising shrimps, there is no need to raise them in cages, and they can be put directly in the ponds. The waters are so wide and deep, and there are more shrimps to be raised. , put some feed and space water, are you afraid they won't come up.However, it is better to raise sturgeons in cages and mix them with shrimps. I am afraid that all the shrimps will become their bait.He consulted with the boss who bought shrimp seedlings before, and finally made a series of net cages and fixed the net cages in the weir pond. At this time, the water in the weir pond also gradually rose. The mountain spring water gathered in the mountains is very clear, and it is running water all year round, which is very suitable for raising fish and shrimp.
After installing the net cages, Xu Ning and Xun Xu made another trip to City C to buy prawn, crab and sturgeon larvae.This time I bought a very large quantity, and spent a total of more than 2 yuan. At the suggestion of the fish fry boss, I bought 150 million shrimp fry, and the number of crabs was not many. I bought [-] pieces, mainly because the price of sturgeon fry is too expensive. Shrimp are counted by [-] fish, while sturgeon are counted by tail. The price of a sturgeon less than ten centimeters long costs [-] yuan.
Xu Ning originally planned to raise some sturgeons to produce caviar, but later learned that it takes eight years for sturgeons to reach sexual maturity. Mature sturgeon.Unexpectedly, the bigger the sturgeon, the more expensive it is. An adult sturgeon costs hundreds or even thousands of dollars a catty. An ordinary sturgeon can grow to thirty or forty catties, while a European sturgeon can grow to six to eight meters long. , weighing more than 1000 kilograms, is this affordable for ordinary people?Of course, such a large European beluga is estimated to grow for decades.
No matter how expensive sturgeon is, it is far inferior to caviar. The top caviar can sell for thousands of dollars per catty. This is because the production is really limited. A female fish only has roes of about [-] catties at most.
In fact, the fish fry owner does not breed sturgeon fry himself. The breeding of sturgeon seedlings requires very harsh conditions, and the boss also bought the seedlings to continue to cultivate.He kept quite a few sturgeons, but no fully mature ones.Xu Ning had no choice but to settle for the next best thing, and bought some fish that were two or three years old, and the price was more than 30 yuan a catty, in order to be able to eat caviar as soon as possible.
After Xu Ning and Xun Xu knew the price and market conditions of the sturgeon, they were full of ambitions. When their family's [-] European sturgeon were bred in the future, wouldn't they die?Xu Ning went to his space to take a look. The European sturgeon he put in at the beginning of the year, probably because of the space, grew very fast. It seemed that they all caught up with the two or three year old sturgeon he bought.
Xu Ning is full of confidence in being able to eat caviar. He puts the few big sturgeons he bought into the space lake, and then transfers them out at about the same time in the future. Anyway, no one will bother with him. It is not raised in weir ponds.
+ + + + + + + + + +
The author has something to say:
Regarding caviar and sturgeon, I checked a lot of information, and there are different opinions, which are very complicated. I can only take part of them, and there may be deviations, but please don’t be serious.For caviar, Americans are caviar no matter what kind of caviar, but the French only think that the caviar of sturgeon is called caviar. All in all, the really good caviar is the caviar of sturgeon.
Xu Ning and Xun Xu also followed.Others are interested in catching fish, but Xu Ning is interested in finding snails and clam shells in the mud.There are many kinds of fish in weir ponds, both omnivorous and herbivorous. In fact, it is not conducive to the growth of snails and clam shells, but as long as the snails and clam shells can survive, they are all very big. Used to make snails.
Xun Xu followed the big guys to fish, and he was very excited, because the atmosphere was very good, and everyone had a kind of Taobao mentality in it.Xun Xu caught two big catfish, and a big black fish. The big fish and the small fish caught a bucket, and brought it to Xu Ning to claim credit.Seeing that Xun Xu's face was full of black ideas splashed by mud and water, Xu Ning rolled his eyes with a smile: "Do you have a sense of accomplishment?"
Xun Xu wiped his face with his sleeve, smiled, glanced at the crowd who were still struggling in the mud, and said, "No more catching, enough is enough. I'll pick snails with you."
Picking up snails is also very interesting. If you see a sunken hole in the wet mud and dig it with your fingers, you will be able to dig out a snail.Or if you see a crack like a crack in the wet mud and shovel it down with your hands, it must be a clam shell.
Xun Xu saw a big crack in the wet mud in front of him, which was longer than the palm of his hand, and hurried over.Xu Ning also saw it, and he said with a smile: "You think beautifully, how can there be such a big clam shell, that one must not be."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xun Xu shoveled out a large disc from the wet mud. The clam shell was still slowly taking in the ax he spit out of the shell, and the diameter was larger than the bucket Xu Ning carried. .Xun Xu smiled very proudly: "Hey, do you think so? Is this a clam shell?"
Xu Ning laughed: "I didn't expect it to be true." Xu Ning had never seen such a big clam shell.
Xun Xu said, "There should be a pearl inside."
"Really?"
Xun Xu said: "Go back and open it to find out. If it is true, it will save me a lot of trouble."
"Why do you want pearls?"
"I'm useful." Xun Xu smiled mysteriously.
The two of them walked less than halfway along the Yantang, when Xu Ning found that their net bags could no longer hold them: "Enough, enough. Let's go back." It's good to try something new, if you eat too much, you will get bored up.
"Okay. Shall we eat snails at night?" Xun Xu had a deep memory of the only time he ate snails, and because it was too troublesome, Xu Ning never did it again.
Xu Ning said: "It takes two days for the snails to spit out mud. Let's eat the clam shells first."
"Clam shells are fine too."
Xu Ning carried the bucket, Xun Xu packed the snails and clam shells in a net bag, and the two went back along the way they came from.Zhou Shusen saw that they were covered in mud and asked, "Why did you two go?"
Xu Ning smiled: "I went to catch fish, there is a weir pond over there to clear the bottom."
"Really, why didn't you call me?" Zhou Shusen said.
Xun Xu said: "There are more over there, you go and have a look."
Zhou Shusen really went there. Now that he is writing a novel, he needs all kinds of materials.Xun Xu stopped him: "Bring a bucket, otherwise where would you put the fish if you caught it?"
Xu Ning and Xun Xu washed the fish and snails and mussels roughly with water first, and then poured the fish into the big foot basin. The basin was full of fish, large and small, and they were all extremely fresh.The two went to take a bath, changed into clean clothes, and then cleaned the fish and snails.
Ah Xuan and Xiao Bao smelled the smell of fish, and they had been squatting by the side of the basin for a long time, licking their noses non-stop.The two masters hadn't come out for a long time. The little leopard got impatient and stretched out his paws to catch fish in the big basin, but the fish didn't catch, wet his paws, and left evidence of crime. He stretched out his paws to Ah Xuan. Xuan glanced at it and ignored it, who told it to be impatient and unruly.
Xun Xu came out first, saw the little leopard's wet paws, and stared at it with rounded eyes: "You don't follow the rules, want to steal it?"
Little Leopard let out a flattering cry, this guy loves fish the most, and when he sees fish to eat, he will give up all his morals and forget the rules.
Xun Xu walked over, grabbed the little leopard, and threw it into the big basin. The little leopard "meow—" blew its fur and struggled in the water in a panic.Xun Xu stood beside him with his hips akimbo and laughed, Ah Xuan looked at Xun Xu who gloated at his misfortune with a blank face.After a while, the little leopard realized that he was like a mouse that fell into the oil tank, surrounded by fish, haha, there was a fish to eat, so he quickly stretched out his claws to catch the fish, but the fish was very flexible and slippery in the water Very, not at all.
Xun Xu stood aside and watched Xiaobao's performance: "Catch it, it's yours if you catch it."
Xiao Bao turned to stare at Xun Xu, and meowed, which meant: What you said is true?
Xun Xu said, "Of course. I caught all the fish, and I made the decision."
The little leopard's eyes were shining, and he stepped on the basin with his hind legs, straightened up, and threw his two front paws at the biggest black fish in the basin, only to hear a splash, the water splashed the sky, and the little leopard was also caught by the black fish. Its tail hit its head, and it was a little dizzy. It let out a scream of "meow--", jumped out of the basin, and looked at the big basin with lingering fear.
Xun Xu laughed loudly: "Calling you greedy, do you have that big fish yourself? Just want to eat big fish!"
Ah Xuan walked over and stuck out his tongue to help the little leopard lick the wet hair on his body. The little leopard whined, trembling with fear in his voice.
Xu Ning wiped his hair with a towel and came out: "What's going on? I heard Little Leopard's screams from afar."
"Greedy. I said whichever one it catches is its own, and it will grab the biggest one. What do you think I can do?" Xun Xu spread his hands innocently.
Xu Ning looked at the wet little leopard: "Did you play tricks on it again?" He picked up a hand towel on the window sill and threw it to Xunxu, "Wipe it dry, otherwise Ah Xuan will catch a cold soon." Fighting you hard."
Xun Xu looked at Xu Ning, then at A Xuan, and sure enough, that guy was staring at him with a serious face, so he squatted down embarrassingly, grabbed the little leopard and brushed its fur.Xiao Bao was born to be at odds with Xun Xun, and his whole body felt uncomfortable after being rubbed by him. Xun Xun said, "Be honest, I won't let you move around. Be good, and I'll recite a dry water spell for you."
The little leopard really didn't move.Xun Xu threw the towel in his hand and whistled, and the hair on Xiaobao's body was indeed dry.Xu Ning washed the snails and looked at him in surprise: "What else do you have?"
"I've used this before, have you forgotten?" When Xun Xu had long hair before, every time he didn't bother to wipe his hair after washing, he would always chant the dry water spell.
Xu Ning thought about it, he seemed to have forgotten about it, he looked up at Xun Xu's hair: "Your hair is a little long again, when did you go to cut it?"
Xun Xu shook his head: "Are you going to cut it again? Let's cut it someday. By the way, what about the hair I cut before? Where did you put it for me?" He remembered that Xu Ning didn't sell it.
Xu Ning said, "I put it together with the sheep's head. What do you want hair for?"
"No reason, just ask." I just remembered the days when I didn't deal with Xu Ning very much, as if I was quite bullying him at that time, but his family Xu Ning was kind-hearted and hard-working, so he was able to tolerate his existence .
Xu Ning said suddenly: "When you first came here, you pulled [-] to [-] yuan, which is really annoying."
Xun Xu giggled: "Is there any?" He thought to himself that it was broken, and it was time to settle accounts after the fall.
Sure enough, Xu Ning's eyes widened: "Why not? You pinched me a few times!"
Xun Xu stretched out his neck: "Come on, pinch it back for you."
Xu Ning looked at his neck, and then at his muddy hands: "I'm not that crazy. I have suffered so much that the whole world owes him, and I pinch people indiscriminately. It's the behavior of a madman."
Xun Xu looked at Xu Ning with innocent eyes: "At that time, did you treat me as a lunatic?"
Xu Ning laughed: "Otherwise, how can I explain it?"
Xun Xuxin said, my famous name in my life was ruined just like that, why did I feel like I had taken the wrong medicine at that time, so fierce, if I knew it, I wouldn't be so dragging, but in the end it still fell into his hands and was beaten He remembered it in his heart and was going to laugh for a lifetime.
Xu Ning was using a knife to cut open the clam shell, cut open the clam shell, scraped off the meat inside with a knife, washed it, and fried it or scalded it. It tasted delicious, just like eating pork belly.Of course, you can cook it with the shell first, the shell will split open automatically, and the meat inside can also be removed, but this is not as delicious as the fresh one.Xu Ning said, "Didn't you say there are pearls in this clam shell? Get it yourself."
"Okay, I'll do it." Xun Xu washed his hands, took a knife, carefully cut open the edge of the clam shell, and then forcefully broke it open with his hands.
Xu Ning poked his head over: "Where is the pearl?"
Xun Xu touched it with his fingers, and finally found a hard object the size of a finger on the side of the clam shell, washed it off with water: "Look, is it a pearl?"
Xu Ning looked at the pearl in Xun Xu's hand, and opened his mouth round. This pearl is really big, with a diameter of 2 cm. It is not as round as the usual pearls, but has a small peduncle-like protrusion The thing looks like a drop of tear, the color is flesh pink, exuding a soft pearl luster. "What a pearl, how many years does it take for such a big pearl?"
"I don't know, the years should not be short."
Xu Ning said: "This is a naturally formed pearl. It is very rare. This pearl should be worth a lot of money."
Xun Xu smiled and said: "Of course it is valuable, it will be even more valuable when I match it with it."
Xu Ning asked: "What do you want to match?"
"Keep it a secret for now." Xun Xu bought it off.
Xu Ning thought to himself, it must have something to do with the herbs he planted upstairs, but he didn't know what he was going to do.
Xun Xu asked, "How do you eat this clam shell?"
Xu Ning said: "Let's have hot pot at noon, and you can go and get some shrimps. We will have dinner after Asen comes back." The weather is getting cooler now. Although it is not yet the season for hot pot, you are not afraid of getting angry and hot up.
When Zhou Shusen came back, his whole body was soaked, as if he had rolled around in the mud. This guy was still laughing and enjoying the experience just now.Xu Ning saw that the fish he caught were not big fish, but there was a round guy lying on the bottom of the bucket. Xu Ning said in surprise: "Huh, you actually caught a turtle?" There are seven or eight weights, which is not too small.
Zhou Shusen chuckled: "Isn't it? In order to snatch this turtle from others, I fell down a lot, but it's worth it, I finally snatched it."
Xu Ning nodded with a smile: "Good luck. What do you do with the turtle? Eat it yourself or sell it?"
Zhou Shusen said: "Of course I eat it myself. If I want to buy it, there is nowhere to buy it."
"Let's have hot pot at noon, Asen, you can have a piece of fish, your skill is better."
"Okay, I'll come back after I take a shower."
The taste of clam meat hot pot is very delicious. Even Zhou Shusen has never eaten this. To be honest, it is also the first time for Xu Ning to eat it, let alone Xun Xu.The taste is really good, and Xun Xu was very happy to eat it. Hearing that there will be turtles to eat at night, let alone the excitement, hehe, finally I can eat turtles again.Seeing him grinning silly, Xu Ning knew what he was up to, and secretly spat in his heart: What a pervert!
As for how happy I am to find the order after eating the turtle, I don't need to go into details.Two days later, Xu Jingshan called Xu Ning and told him that Yantang was about to open the bid.Xu Ning hurriedly put in a sum of money and went to the village committee. He didn't know how much it would cost to contract, but a deposit of several thousand yuan must be indispensable.Xun Xu and Zhou Shusen followed to watch the excitement.
When he arrived at the place, Xu Ning found that there were many unfamiliar faces in the meeting, so he asked the uncle who had been there earlier: "Uncle, why don't many people know each other, are they not from our village?"
Xu Jingshan flicked his cigarette butt: "Yes, there are many people from outside. The owner of the last Baoyantang is not from our village, but from the town."
Xu Ning thought to himself, it seems that the competition is not small. "What was the price of Yantang last year?"
Xu Jingshan said: "Forty thousand a year, this is the price ten years ago."
Xu Ningxin said, it's really not cheap. Now that the prices are soaring, it will only be more expensive.Xu Ning asked, "Uncle, how much do you think you can afford?"
Xu Jingshan said: "I don't know the reserve price yet. Generally speaking, if it is about 1 yuan higher than the reserve price, it should be about the same."
Xu Ning thought to himself, if the weir pond is so big, if the bottom of the pond is not clear, it can produce more than [-] catties of fish a year, and the gross income will be [-] to [-] yuan. It's a lot, but it's mainly for long-term benefits, so it's still a good deal. It's even more cost-effective if you contract to raise shrimp and sturgeon yourself, so Xu Ning is bound to win this weir pond.
When the village officials saw Xu Ning, they greeted him: "Xu Ning, do you also want to contract Qianlongyan?"
Xu Ning smiled: "Let me take a look." Generally speaking, the fish ponds in the village should be contracted by the people of the village, and it is not up to outsiders to intervene.But the villagers also have the idea of the villagers. The more people who contract, the higher the price will be. They will not suffer, so why not do it.
Not long after, the village head announced the reserve price, which was [-] yuan, with no upper limit. This low price was almost twice as high as ten years ago.Xu Ning thought, add ten thousand, forty-five thousand?Can you take it down?Then he dragged Xun Xu, Zhou Shusen and Xu Jingshan to the side to discuss.
Xu Jingshan said: "I think 4 yuan is enough. Don't forget, the previous boss is not willing to contract for [-] yuan. It's too expensive."
Zhou Shusen said: "According to Xu Ning's analysis just now, if the annual gross income is around [-], I think [-] is enough. Otherwise, how can I make money? It's useless."
Xun Xu said, "Xu Ning, how much are you going to pay?"
Xu Ning thought for a while: "I'm going to round up a whole number, [-]."
Xu Jingshan frowned: "If you are like this, it is 1 yuan more than last year. No, it is too expensive. Have you ever calculated the cost? Don't think that it is easy for you to make money, just use it for nothing. Forty-five thousand It's exhausted."
Xu Ning also thought about it: "Okay then, just listen to Uncle."
Xu Ning took a pen and paper, wrote his name and price, and asked Xunxu, "That's it?"
Xun Xu looked at it, took a pen, he already knew how to use Arabic numerals, and changed the "5" into a "6", Xu Ning laughed: "Okay, I listen to you."
Xu Ning put the paper into the standard box, and then waited for the answer to be announced. He felt that the number to be changed in order should be a certainty, because he is a god, and it is too exaggerated to say that the prophet is too exaggerated, but what numbers are written by others? I can still see it.
As a result, when the votes were counted, Xu Ning was not the tallest, he was the second tallest, and the highest was a person from the next village, who paid [-].Xu Ning looked at Xun Xu in surprise, which meant why you didn't see it.Xun Xu scratched his head, saying that I was based on feeling, and didn't read much of what others wrote.
The price tag has come out, and the dust has settled, Xu Ning is a little disappointed, he is determined to win, and the money in his pocket is not spent.On the way back, Xu Jingshan said: "If the bid is [-] yuan, he is a fool. He guards the pond for a year, and he can earn [-] yuan a year, which is incredible."
Xu Ning thought about it, he was right, his price couldn't be higher than [-], he originally planned to pay only [-] at most, so he couldn't get it, even if he was looking for order, he would cheat, seeing the other party's [-] Ten thousand five, I may not be able to offer a higher price than him, because it is not worth the price at all.
Xu Ning thought to himself, those European sturgeons should stay in the space and talk about it later.As a result, the village cadres came to Xu Ning the next day: "Xu Ning, do you still want Qianlongyan?"
Xu Ning was a little surprised: "Didn't it be taken away by someone?"
The village chief smiled a little embarrassedly: "The man paid a deposit of 2000 yuan yesterday, and then came today and said that he would not pay the rent and would return the rent."
"What's wrong?" Xu Ning asked.
The village head laughed and said, "I guess his wife thinks it's too expensive, so I don't agree. When I came here this morning, there were still scratches on my neck. The couple had a fight at home."
Xu Ning laughed: "That means he won't take care of it, let me take care of this Yantang?"
"Yes, if you want to pack it, I will give it to you."
"What about the price?"
The village chief said: "Just follow the price you offered yesterday." In fact, the village chief was very nervous. If Xu Ning was unwilling to accept the bid, he would have to open a second bid. The rest of the bidders were not from the village. It's really hard to find. Generally speaking, the price of the second opening bid is usually kept very low.
Xu Ning smiled: "Okay then. Forty-six thousand, right? How many years is the contract?"
The village chief said, "Ten years."
Xu Ning said, "I want a 15-year contract, does the village chief think it's okay?"
The village chief gritted his teeth: "Okay, just 15 years."
So the two parties signed a contract on the spot to pay the rent. Xu Ning's family now has tens of thousands of dollars in cash at any time, and it is still very easy to pay the rent for a year.
After signing the contract, Xu Ning went up to the back mountain, raised the contract in his hand and laughed at Xun Xu: "Let's go, let's go to our Yantang to have a look."
Xun Xu was surprised: "Why did it become our family again?"
"Hey, what's yours is yours after all, and what's not yours can't be forced." Xu Ning said proudly, "The guy who paid a high price yesterday regretted not wanting it, so he left it to me."
Xun Xu took the contract and looked at it: "It's true, it really belongs to us."
They went to the Yantang to have a look. After a few days, the bottom of the Yantang began to have water more than a meter deep, but the fish could not be released yet. Xu Ning decided to sprinkle lime for disinfection first, and seize the time to build the cages. , driving piles and repairing pallets in the pond, so that there is no need to row a boat to feed.
Xun Xu asked him: "Who will take care of this fish pond in the future? It's far away from home, so I can't take care of it."
Xu Ning said: "This is indeed a problem. Hire someone to take care of it?"
Xun Xu said: "To hire someone, one month can't be less than Asen's. In this way, it's [-] a year, plus the contract price, and the fish fry money. Is it worth it?"
Xu Ning found that Xun Xu was becoming more and more in charge of his own affairs, and he could actually make plans. "Then how about I do it myself?"
Xun Xu said: "Don't think about it! This is good. Let's not raise fish, but raise shrimp and crabs. This year's harvest must be enough. In such a wide place, there must be more shrimp than in the stream. It should be No loss."
Xu Ning gave a thumbs up: "It makes sense. The water area is also more than ten acres wide, and it can raise millions of shrimps, so we won't be afraid that we won't be able to make money."
"There are still crabs." Xun Xu never forgot.
"Okay, there are also crabs. How are the crabs raised? Go and check." See if there is any preparation work that needs to be done, and do it in advance while the water level in the weir pond is low.
Xu Ning went back and checked online. It turned out that crab breeding is very troublesome, and the environment of Yantang is not suitable for raising crabs, but that valley and paddy field can be raised. Xu Ning thinks about raising a little in the valley directly. It is good to raise shrimp and European beluga, and continue to raise loach and eel in paddy fields, and then raise some rice field fish.
Xu Ning missed a lot of information on the Internet. Considering that the ponds are completely used for raising shrimps, there is no need to raise them in cages, and they can be put directly in the ponds. The waters are so wide and deep, and there are more shrimps to be raised. , put some feed and space water, are you afraid they won't come up.However, it is better to raise sturgeons in cages and mix them with shrimps. I am afraid that all the shrimps will become their bait.He consulted with the boss who bought shrimp seedlings before, and finally made a series of net cages and fixed the net cages in the weir pond. At this time, the water in the weir pond also gradually rose. The mountain spring water gathered in the mountains is very clear, and it is running water all year round, which is very suitable for raising fish and shrimp.
After installing the net cages, Xu Ning and Xun Xu made another trip to City C to buy prawn, crab and sturgeon larvae.This time I bought a very large quantity, and spent a total of more than 2 yuan. At the suggestion of the fish fry boss, I bought 150 million shrimp fry, and the number of crabs was not many. I bought [-] pieces, mainly because the price of sturgeon fry is too expensive. Shrimp are counted by [-] fish, while sturgeon are counted by tail. The price of a sturgeon less than ten centimeters long costs [-] yuan.
Xu Ning originally planned to raise some sturgeons to produce caviar, but later learned that it takes eight years for sturgeons to reach sexual maturity. Mature sturgeon.Unexpectedly, the bigger the sturgeon, the more expensive it is. An adult sturgeon costs hundreds or even thousands of dollars a catty. An ordinary sturgeon can grow to thirty or forty catties, while a European sturgeon can grow to six to eight meters long. , weighing more than 1000 kilograms, is this affordable for ordinary people?Of course, such a large European beluga is estimated to grow for decades.
No matter how expensive sturgeon is, it is far inferior to caviar. The top caviar can sell for thousands of dollars per catty. This is because the production is really limited. A female fish only has roes of about [-] catties at most.
In fact, the fish fry owner does not breed sturgeon fry himself. The breeding of sturgeon seedlings requires very harsh conditions, and the boss also bought the seedlings to continue to cultivate.He kept quite a few sturgeons, but no fully mature ones.Xu Ning had no choice but to settle for the next best thing, and bought some fish that were two or three years old, and the price was more than 30 yuan a catty, in order to be able to eat caviar as soon as possible.
After Xu Ning and Xun Xu knew the price and market conditions of the sturgeon, they were full of ambitions. When their family's [-] European sturgeon were bred in the future, wouldn't they die?Xu Ning went to his space to take a look. The European sturgeon he put in at the beginning of the year, probably because of the space, grew very fast. It seemed that they all caught up with the two or three year old sturgeon he bought.
Xu Ning is full of confidence in being able to eat caviar. He puts the few big sturgeons he bought into the space lake, and then transfers them out at about the same time in the future. Anyway, no one will bother with him. It is not raised in weir ponds.
+ + + + + + + + + +
The author has something to say:
Regarding caviar and sturgeon, I checked a lot of information, and there are different opinions, which are very complicated. I can only take part of them, and there may be deviations, but please don’t be serious.For caviar, Americans are caviar no matter what kind of caviar, but the French only think that the caviar of sturgeon is called caviar. All in all, the really good caviar is the caviar of sturgeon.
