1983 Small Island, Starting From a Large Farmer Chapter 608

Li Duoyu was too busy during this period, and Zhou Xiaoying did not dare to trouble him at all.

The correspondence course she enrolled in had already started, and Li Duoyu helped her find this correspondence course through her connections.

The school she attends is Rongcheng University. She majors in English. Now this course is very popular and sought-after, and many units send people to study it.

As a primary school teacher, she would not have been able to apply for the place in her correspondence class without the help of teacher Xie Youzheng.

Thinking of this, Zhou Xiaoying not only sighed, sometimes, relationships are really useful. In the past, she couldn't even resist Principal Zhu, and her salary would not increase even if she taught two or three classes by herself.

But now, just by treating her to a meal, Teacher Xie made all the arrangements for her enrollment.

According to the original plan, she had to go to school on weekends and stay one night in Rongcheng.

But because the shrimp farm was not going well recently, Zhou Xiaoying discussed it with Teacher Xie.

Then I met with the teacher. After communicating with each other, I found that Zhou Xiaoying's foundation was very good.

In the first semester, you can study at home. If you have time, you can go there to attend classes. If you don't, you can just take the exam at the end of the semester.

But since she really couldn't help and seeing Duoyu was so busy every day, the only thing Zhou Xiaoying could do was to strengthen her own study.

Because her parents passed away early, Zhou Xiaoying has never felt safe, and she also knows that she is a relatively pessimistic person.

It's impossible to be as confident as Li Duoyu. This guy is really a jerk. No matter before or now, he always looks passionate and confident in everything he does.

But she always thought that if there was too much fish, accidents would happen, so she didn't expect that she would encounter this shrimp plague right away.

Zhou Xiaoying knew quite well how much money he invested in this project. She was present when the loan of more than 600,000 yuan was signed.

It is impossible to say that Zhou Xiaoying is not panicking now, but being nervous doesn't work at all.

She also wants to work hard, and Duoyu cannot bear all the pressure alone.

If Duoyu fails or fails in breeding, she will be the last guarantee for the family.

She had talked with Teacher Xie, and the most profitable areas for English majors at present were contracts and translations in professional fields, such as manuals and so on.

You can also make money by translating foreign masterpieces and publishing them in China, but it is a bit time-consuming.

In short, as long as you are professional enough, you can even become a foreign language consultant for a company and earn a lot of money a year.

Therefore, during this period of time, Zhou Xiaoying studied harder than before, while Xiao Tutu was taken care of by his grandma.

During this recent period, she often read books and studied by herself until one or two in the morning.

Lao Li, who lives in the back, has also suffered from insomnia during this period. Sometimes, seeing the lights still on in the room makes him very worried.

But there was nothing he could do. After all, he was a fisherman who struggled to raise oysters well.

In the past, I always felt that having too many fish meant that I didn't have much ability, so I had to learn how to keep oysters alive from him, but now I can't compare with this son.

When faced with the shrimp plague, his son actually dared to fight. He also wanted to persuade him, but he didn't understand at all. Maybe after trying to persuade him, it would only cause more trouble.

These days, Chen Huiying has been worshiping at Thean Hou Temple, almost every day.

The table was full of tributes she had placed. Some of them were not even taken back, but remained on the god's table.

For her, in this situation where she couldn't help, all she could do was pray for blessings and take Little Tutu with her.

But when she knelt down to worship Mazu, little Tutu who came with her stared at the tributes on the god's table with her big eyes.

Little Tutu hasn't had any snacks since his grandma came back. Grandma watched so closely that he didn't even have a chance to eat secretly, and he wasn't even allowed to catch chickens or ducks.

In the past, when his father and mother were bothering him, they would still give him some food.

But after grandma came back, he couldn't eat anything. The tributes on the table included melon seeds and watermelon candies.

Little Tutu couldn't bear it any longer and kept secretly observing her grandma, seeing how attentively she worshiped her.

He just snuck to the back.

At the moment when grandma knelt down to worship, she reached out to the red plate on the sacred table, secretly grabbed two watermelon candies and stuffed them into her pocket.

The second time, I grabbed a handful of melon seeds.

But the third time, grandma looked at him with wide eyes and looked very angry.

"Yao Shou Jin'er!"

"Matsu has not eaten yet, yet you dare to eat it secretly. You really don't remember the pain but the beating."

The little Tutu who was found was grinning. At this moment, he did not realize the seriousness of the matter.

For Chen Huiying, she can choose to forgive many things, but only for the matter of worshiping and her belief in Mazu, she is definitely the most pious people on the island.

Chen Huiying did not have an attack at Thean Hou Temple. Instead, after paying her respects, she left the Thean Hou Temple and was on her way back.

After placing Shenlan on the stone, he immediately broke off a small twig from the bushes on the road.

Seeing Xiao Zhi's little Tutu, she was immediately frightened: "Grandma, don't hit me. I was wrong. You won't dare to do it again?"

Chen Huiying said angrily: "What are you afraid of?"

"I don't dare to eat from Mazu's mother again."

"Which hand is holding it, hold it out."

Since he had both hands, little Tutu stretched out both hands, thinking that grandma wouldn't really hit him.

But this time, little Tutu also thought wrong. Both little palms were hit and turned red instantly.

Little Tutu's eyes were red from crying and she kept shedding tears. He really didn't expect that grandma wouldn't hit him usually.

Sometimes, when his father wanted to hit him, his grandma would stop him and even scold him. So every time his father wanted to hit him, little Tutu would run to find his grandma.

Unexpectedly, the two spanks this time were not enough for grandma. Seeing that grandma still wanted to hit the usually tough little Tutu, she hid her hands behind her back and said, "Grandma, I won't dare to do it again next time."

Chen Huiying didn't want to beat him, but there were some things that he couldn't do without beating him. Except for his family members, the whole village gave way to him.

Chen Huiying knew very well that because his father was so powerful, the child had to be taught more strictly.

In the past, he was still ignorant and Chen Huiying was reluctant to fix him. Now he is slowly becoming more sensible. Once there is a bad habit, he must correct it as soon as possible.

Chen Huiying said sternly: "If you don't eat well this month, you won't get a single snack."

"I know, I will definitely eat well, so can I not hit you?"

"No, if you steal the tribute, you must slap the palm of your hand three times and only twice. Let me give you the last slap." After today's beating, Xiao Tutu understood that tribute from Thean Hou Palace must not be stolen, otherwise even the most painful His grandma would beat him.

The shrimp plague has been going on for some time, and even if Li Duoyu didn't say anything, everyone in the village knew about it.

After all, many villagers work at the shrimp farm, and they also know how many shrimps die every day.

Over there in the village square.

Of the four old people who often played four-color cards, there are now only three left. One of them suddenly suffered a heat stroke this summer and left.

But they were sad for a while and continued to live their lives as usual.

The reason why they play cards here is simple. Almost all of them have lost the ability to work. For them, one more day to live is one more day to earn.

The three have been missing for a long time, but a new poker friend has recently arrived, and everyone is familiar with this person.

He is twice as small as them, but his movements are not as sharp as theirs: "Wang Dapao, please play your cards faster."

Although Wang DaPaoShu is no longer shaking so much, he is really slow at playing cards, and even these old men with all white hair dislike him.

"If I don't fight with you, I'll be too slow to die. I'll be anxious just looking at you."

In the past, when Wang Dapao was the captain, everyone would give him some concessions, but now they don't give him any face at all.

At this time, the old man named Lao Zhao suddenly said: "Have you heard that the shrimp farm in Duoyu cleans up a lot of dead shrimps every day? I heard they are all in baskets."

"Some of them are still alive and quite big, but they are all buried in the soil. It is really a waste. It would be great to make dried shrimps and sell them. This is what other shrimp farmers do."

"I support Duoyu." Another old man said: "Didn't you see that last year Duoyu buried those eels in truckloads? I think Duoyu, this kid, was a bit skinny before. , but the three views are very correct.”

"Yes, the three views are indeed very upright." Old Zhao nodded: "You said the breeding industry is easy to do, or not."

Wang Dapao, who was disliked, said: "Raising kelp is afraid of typhoons, eels are afraid of eel disease, oysters are afraid of the red sea water, and raising shrimps is also affected by shrimp plague. It's not that easy."

After listening to what Wang Dapao said, everyone also discovered that the road to farming seems to be really not as easy as fishing.

Now that everyone has made money, they have gradually moved to iron boats. Larger boats can also be equipped with radios, so they can call for rescue even if they are in danger.

"Let's take a look first. If Duoyu can survive this time, I will let my sons join him in breeding."

The old man's memory fades relatively slowly. An old man whom everyone calls Lao Sun couldn't help but say:

"Tell me, Li Duoyu, has it changed too much in the past few years? I always feel like I can't react."

"Old Sun, if you don't tell me, I also feel very awkward. I always feel like a different person. By the way, do any of you still remember what Duoyu was like before?"

Old Zhao hummed, "Of course I remember. When he took a photo of a foreigner and asked the barber to perm his hair with a pair of tongs, I watched it for a long time."

"It's only been three years. How can a person change so much? It's incredible to think about it."

Wang Dapao couldn't help laughing at himself: "Not to mention three years, two years have changed a lot. Two years ago, I was still the village party secretary, and my hands still don't shake?"

Several old people said disgustedly: "This is retribution, you should do more good deeds."

An old man said: "But Cannon was still very good when he was young, but he became more confused as he lived."

Li Duoyu has been living in a shrimp farm during this period. Although shrimp plague cannot be prevented manually, losses can be reduced through intensive farming.

After getting along with Li Duoyu for a long time, Lei Youshan and the others naturally figured out what Li Duoyu was.

Li Duoyu really doesn't understand very professional issues, but he is also very strange, he is very good at breeding.

Half a month ago, all of them unanimously suggested that Li Duoyu quickly sell all the prawns in the pond.

After all, this shrimp plague can be transmitted continuously, and even changing the water is useless, because there are problems with the water sources outside.

After the shrimp plague broke out, they also tested wild shrimps in surrounding waters. Although the infection rate was not as high as farmed shrimps, it was certain that wild shrimps were also infected, and some survived after being infected.

If we continue to raise them until the end of the year, it is estimated that 80% of the shrimps in the entire shrimp farm will die.

And they have tested it and found that the vitality of these infected shrimps is very poor, and even if they survive, they will not grow much.

But what they didn't expect was that Boss Li didn't listen to them, but adopted another strategy.

It's called precision farming.

In addition to strengthening the management of water quality, dead shrimps are recovered in time and the ponds are patrolled four times a day. This may be because these shrimp seedlings are of higher quality in the first place.

Li Duoyu forcibly controlled the shrimp plague to a critical point and managed to survive it, although there was still a virus in the pond.

But the surviving shrimps seem to be immune to these viruses.

This result shocked Lei Youshan and Chen Dongqing, and even found it a bit incredible.

What surprised them most was that Li Duoyu actually proposed a method of increasing the immunity of shrimps by feeding lactic acid bacteria.

And this suddenly touched upon their blind spot of knowledge. For them, lactic acid bacteria are generally eaten by humans.

At some point, it was the animal's turn to eat, but after some verification, we found that feeding lactobacilli to shrimp is actually very good.

It just so happens that this disease damages the gastrointestinal tract and hepatopancreas of shrimp. After feeding lactobacilli, their gastrointestinal tract can be well protected from virus attack.

After coming to the conclusion, Chen Dongqing still couldn't help but ask Li Duoyu where he knew that lactic acid bacteria can improve the immunity of shrimps.

But the results were the same every time he asked. They were all from abroad. This time, it was not Hong Kong Island, but experts from the island country who told him.

Chen Dongqing would rather believe what foreign experts told him than what Mazu told him in a dream.

After confirming that lactic acid bacteria were effective, the four of them went to the research institutes of their peers to obtain lactic acid bacteria strains through their own connections.

Facts have proved that the effect of lactic acid bacteria is still very obvious. After spraying the lactic acid bacteria, the shrimp plague in Li Duoyu shrimp farm was finally under control.

The number of dead shrimps has decreased visibly to the naked eye. On the latest day, less than one basket of dead shrimps was fished out.

After seeing this result, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Li Duoyu glanced at his brother-in-law Chen Dongqing and said, "It's really a shame. You don't even shave your beard, just like a beggar."

"Pee yourself and look in the mirror. You're not going to be any better, okay?"

But Lei Youshan seemed to have realized something very important in the past two days.

Shrimp feed is available.

Lactic acid bacteria that can improve shrimp resistance are now available, and large-scale production can now be started.

There are also broodstock shrimps that have survived the virus, and the next generation of shrimps may have antibodies to the virus.

"Damn it, it took off." (End of chapter)
