1983 Small Island, Starting From a Large Farmer Chapter 620

 Official wells, half a year's grain,

The yellow flowers are singing and the fishermen are laughing.

Li Duoyu often heard this folk song when he was a child. At that time, his father, uncle, and third uncle all served in the fishing team, and they all caused many large yellow croakers in Guanjingyang.

Guanjingyang is the name of a sea area. This sea area is not very big, only about 20,000 hectares.

Surrounded by peninsulas and islands, it is a typical inland sea. It is not only a natural giant haven, but also a spawning ground for large yellow croakers.

In the previous life, Guanjingyang was a famous large yellow croaker breeding base. In addition, because it is a natural haven with little wind and waves, it is really suitable for cage farming.

There is no barrier on Dandan Island, so when a typhoon comes, we can only resist it.

It just so happens that the number of large yellow croakers has been severely reduced in the past two years. It is really not easy to eat fresh large yellow croakers now. You have to make a reservation in advance with the fishmongers at the pier.

And the price is getting more and more exaggerated. Three years ago, it was only about 50 or 60 cents.

But this year, there is no sign of large yellow croaker in the farmer's market.

Some state-run supply and marketing cooperatives still have listed prices, which are about one yuan, but they can't buy large yellow croaker at all with the fish tickets in their hands.

I heard that now, once the boss of the boat catches a large yellow croaker, the large yellow croaker will be bought by the fishmongers before the boat even docks.

Either they are sold to restaurants and restaurants at high prices, or they are stored in cold storage and rarely sold on the market.

In addition, last year the province issued the "Management Regulations for the Guanjingyang Large Yellow Croaker Breeding Reserve".

Guanjingyang is listed as a protected area. In many places in the protected area, trawling is not even allowed.

As for fried fish, poisoned fish, and electric fish, it is even illegal, and this place is also the first place in their province to have a fishing ban.

From May to September every year, if you want to fish here, you must have a fishing license issued by the local area.

Once a fishing boat without a license fishes in this place during the fishing ban period, the fine is considered a minor matter, but in serious cases, the boat may be detained.

After Guanjingyang became a protected area, it became even more difficult for everyone to catch large yellow croaker, and this is also the reason why the price of large yellow croaker increased wildly.

I heard from Old Tang in my previous life that by the mid-1990s, the price of large yellow croakers weighing more than two kilograms had risen to more than 100 yuan.

Because Li Duoyu agreed so readily, He Gang, Section Chief Liu and his team were a little unable to react, thinking that the other party was just joking.

Liu Jiafu couldn't help but said: "Director Li, why don't you take a look at the documents again? Our large yellow croaker is still in the trial breeding stage, and there are many problems that have not been resolved.

We are here to ask for investment funds this time. Even if you want to raise it right away, we don't dare to raise it for you. "

He Gang also followed up and said: "Duoyu, although we have a good relationship and have slept in the same dormitory, you trust me so much, which makes it a bit difficult for me. You'd better consider this project of Director Liu carefully."

Chen Dongqing also said:

"There are many fish. I also think He Gang is right. The market for large yellow croaker is indeed good now, but this thing is migratory and not very easy to raise. You have to think carefully about it."

Li Duoyu himself was confused by them. Aren't you guys bringing these materials here to ask me for investment?

I have made a decision and am ready to invest now, but you asked me to be more cautious. Li Duoyu really wanted to tell them.

Feel free to go ahead and do it, the big yellow croaker project is 100% achievable, and it may develop into a tens of billions industry in the future.

But these were all words of experience from his previous life, and they wouldn't believe him. He didn't know how to explain it to them for a while, so he had to give a random reason.

"It's like this. I didn't just want to invest in the breeding of large yellow croaker. I thought that the breeding of large yellow croaker was quite promising."

Liu Jiafu was a little surprised: "Director Li, have you already started paying attention to the big yellow croaker before?"

Li Duoyu nodded: "Actually, I have been paying attention to you two years ago when I started raising eels, and I have been paying attention to the progress of your large yellow croaker breeding.

Let me put it this way, even if you don't come here today, I may take the initiative to find you for cooperation. "

As soon as Li Duoyu said these words, Chen Dongqing couldn't help but roll his eyes. You are so concerned. In all these years of breeding, you haven't said a word about large yellow croaker, okay?

But when Liu Jiafu heard this, he was so excited that he wanted to hug Li Duoyu. He finally found someone who recognized their project.

This large yellow croaker breeding project was approved very early, but because the breeding cycle is really too long, the leaders are generally not optimistic about it, so they casually gave them less than 20,000 yuan in funding.

Nowadays, they don't even have a serious scientific research site, only a broken ship, and the research equipment is very old.

During this period of time, in order to raise funds, he found many companies, and his legs almost broke. He didn't ask for the money, but instead spent a lot of money on drinks.

This makes the already poor research station even worse.

Liu Jiafu also approached many local breeding owners and wanted to ask if they were interested.

As a result, without exception, when they heard that it would take two years to raise just over a pound, they all declined politely.

Although the price of large yellow croaker is very attractive, the risk of such a long breeding time is really too great.

In addition, a typhoon has just raged this year. For many farmers, offshore farming is purely dependent on God.

If you're in a good mood, I'll reward you with two bites of rice.

If you're in a bad mood, I'll slap you twice.

It takes such a long time to breed large yellow croakers, which is a challenge to God's patience.

This is not a question of making money or not, but a question of how much you plan to lose.

Liu Jiafu himself knows very well that it is difficult to attract investment for this current research result, but he has no intention of giving up.

If he couldn't get investment, he would sell some of his property and continue the research no matter how hard it was.

Unexpectedly, his former subordinate He Gang suggested that he try Li Duoyu from Minlong Food.

What made him even more unexpected was that this young man who was the best in their aquaculture industry would agree so readily!

This gave the Liu family an unreal feeling, like they were in a dream.

Seeing that Li Duoyu was also interested in large yellow croaker, Liu Jiafu quickly introduced:

"If you are interested, Director Li, I will introduce to you in detail the current progress and results of our large yellow croaker breeding."

"Okay, I really don't like looking at a lot of documents."

Liu Jiafu continued: "At this stage, we have completed research on the breeding of large yellow croaker. Since the desire for mating of large yellow croaker is very low in cages, we injected a hormone into the fish to induce labor. Overall, The effect is still good, but there is still room for improvement.

The most difficult part is that large yellow croakers are migratory, so if they are kept in a small place.

The desire to eat will become very low, and our team has been looking for ways to increase the eating frequency of large yellow croaker."

After Liu Jiafu's introduction, Chen Dongqing couldn't help but ask: "Is this giant yellow croaker really that difficult to raise? A two-year-old giant yellow croaker only grows to over a pound?"

Liu Jiafu laughed bitterly. Seeing that Li Duoyu was so sincere, he said truthfully:

"To be honest, I don't want to lie to you. More than one kilogram is our best data. Two years ago, we raised a total of more than 7,000 large yellow croakers, and only more than 300 of them are alive today, and among them The largest one weighs only one pound or three taels, and most weigh half a pound.”

After hearing this, everyone looked at each other, and even He Gang was shocked: "Chief Liu, that's not what you told me before."

Liu Jiafu was quite embarrassed: "If I want to give you the real data, you won't help me find investors."

He Gang's face turned dark. He was indeed right. Knowing that the breeding data of large yellow croaker was so poor, he really had no shame in introducing this project to Li Duoyu. After Liu Jiafu finished speaking, he quickly said to Li Duoyu: "Director Li, after this breeding, we have accumulated a lot of experience. Our team is confident that as long as we are given a few more years, we will be able to break through this difficulty. ”

I heard it will take a few years.

Fisheries experts like Min Long couldn't help but shake their heads, sighed, and then whispered to each other.

From the beginning, they were not optimistic about Section Chief Liu's breeding project, and now they are almost ready to veto it.

He Gang was very helpless. He had been tricked by this old leader. He thought that even if their current breeding technology was immature, it should be about the same.

I never thought that it would take several years, and it was still uncertain. Who would be willing to invest in you?

But what everyone didn't expect was that Li Duoyu was actually moved and said with great appreciation: "If you are ambitious, I believe Section Chief Liu will succeed. Tall buildings rise from the ground, and even the Great Wall was not built in a day." ”

"Large yellow croaker is originally a migratory marine fish. It is normal that it is difficult to raise. I also very much hope that you can overcome the difficulties."

Liu Jiafu was so moved that he almost cried. It was the first time he saw such a reasonable boss. At this moment, he even felt a sense of sympathy.

Chen Dongqing and He Gang looked at each other in confusion and frowned at the Li Duoyu in front of them. They always felt that the upright man in front of them who was giving Section Chief Liu blood was completely different from the lowly Li Duoyu in their impression.

Lei Youshan, on the other hand, had a very tricky angle and asked a question: "Chief Liu, I would like to ask, is there a big difference between the large yellow croaker you cultivate and the wild one?"

Liu Jiafu said: “There is still a difference, that is, the cultured large yellow croaker looks a little rounder overall due to the restricted conditions.

As for the taste, the difference is not very big. We have done tests, and if we don't mean to say it is farmed, it is not.

Only a very small number of people will notice that there is anything wrong with the taste, and most people can't tell the difference in texture at all. "

"That's really good."

But just when both parties felt that the atmosphere was harmonious, Li Duoyu suddenly asked: "Chief Liu, if you say that we cooperate, how do you plan to cooperate?"

Liu Jiafu scratched his head and said, "I'll tell you the truth. Our research station is very short of funds right now. If Director Li is willing to invest in us, we only need 20,000 yuan a year."

Once the large yellow croaker farming technology matures, we will give you the complete set of farming technology as soon as possible. "

Li Duoyu clasped his fingers lightly on the table and began to think: "But if we invest so much money, it would be a bit of a disadvantage for us if we can only obtain breeding technology."

Liu Jiafu was stunned for a moment. Director Li had made him feel excited before, but in just two minutes, it gave him a cold feeling.

I always feel like the knife is coming.

really

Li Duoyu said directly: "I can invest in you, and even increase your funding. The first year will be at least 50,000 yuan, but there is a prerequisite. Once your research is successful, the authorship rights can be given to you, but we in Minlong Bian must have the patent rights for large yellow croaker farming.”

After hearing what Li Duoyu said, everyone present suddenly realized and had a better understanding of him.

He Gang laughed bitterly, Li Duoyu has not changed at all, and is even more cheap than before. He said so many nice things at the beginning, but it turned out that he was trying to grab the patent rights!

Liu Jiafu's face was also ugly. He naturally understood what the patent right meant. Nowadays, many so-called "scientists" especially like to invent and apply for patents, but they all end up plagiarizing foreigners.

He also knew very well that once the patent rights were given to Li Duoyu, he would not be able to teach others the technology of large yellow croaker farming without Li Duoyu's permission.

This was like working for him in disguise, which was far different from his original idea. For a moment, he didn't know what to choose.

At this moment, Liu Jiafu was sweating on his forehead, but when he was struggling violently, Li Duoyu said with a smile: "Chief Liu, don't rush back to me about this matter. Since they are all here, I might as well take it first." Please visit our shrimp farm and feed factory.”

"All right."

Liu Jiafu wiped his forehead, and then started to visit together. But before he took a few steps, Liu Jiafu was shocked by the equipment in the shrimp farm.

After looking at the breeding ponds that were constantly leaking water, Liu Jiafu said in surprise: "Director Li, are these water circulation equipment?"

He could only see this kind of equipment in journals and magazines, and he had never seen a real device until now.

With the blessing of this thing, he felt that he could reduce the mortality rate by at least 50% during the breeding stage of large yellow croaker seedlings.

Li Duoyu replied: "Yes, when I went to Hong Kong Island last time, I borrowed 600,000 yuan from the leader to purchase a batch of equipment."

The colleague who came with Liu Jiafu was stunned when he heard the 600,000 yuan.

Their research station doesn't even have 20,000 yuan in funding, and now it feels like they can't even pay their wages.

One set of equipment costs more than 600,000 yuan, and it seems to be imported, using foreign exchange.

Comparing people to each other can really make people mad. His shrimp farming project is like his biological son, while their large yellow croaker breeding project is not his biological son at all, and no one cares about him or loves him.

But when he came to the breeding pond outside, he instantly changed his mind and thought that Li Duoyu was really awesome.

Li Duoyu introduced the three-dimensional farming method: "In order to simulate the shrimp farming environment, our ponds are relatively large. The upper layer is raised with shrimps, the middle layer is mixed with some oysters, the lower layer is raised with blue crabs, and the bottom layer is raised with Raise some razor clams to purify the water.”

What Li Duoyu said inspired Liu Jiafu on the spot, as to why they had not raised the large yellow croaker well.

It is most likely a problem with the breeding environment. If we can build a breeding space that is more similar to the living environment of large yellow croaker, then it might be possible to raise it well.

After seeing the prawns Li Duoyu caught, Liu Jiafu felt envious and said, "This year's shrimps must be very expensive."

Li Duoyu also told the truth: "It's not cheap. The price out of the pond here is at least ten yuan per catty. Almost all the five hundred acres of prawns have been booked."

Not only Liu Jiafu, but also He Gang was in disbelief. Their brains could no longer calculate.

Five hundred acres of prawns sell for ten yuan per catty. How much money will Li Duoyu make this year?

He Gang couldn't help but hug Li Duoyu's thigh. Why did he work so hard to raise seaweed? He might as well come over and start shrimp farming together.

But what shocked them the most was that it was not the shrimp breeding pond, but the experimental building built by Li Duoyu.

Not only does it have a separate sterilization room, but also a bacterial culture room. The most important thing is that the instruments and equipment inside are really complete and very new.

It was much better than their Sharp Fisheries Research Institute. Especially when he saw one of the imported equipment, He Gang was so envious that he almost drooled.

"This equipment also belongs to your company?"

Li Duoyu nodded.

Chen Dongqing patted him on the shoulder and sighed: "Comrade He Gang, don't be too surprised. I think this is the only one in our province who is willing to spend so much money to buy equipment for research."

After visiting the shrimp farm in Qixing Bay, Liu Jiafu felt really mixed up in his heart. After a lot of tangle, he finally made a decision.

Although he felt that he was at a disadvantage because his years of hard work had to be used as a wedding dress for others, Liu Jiafu felt that there was a future for him by cooperating with someone like Li Duoyu.

He is really different from other farmers in that he has a very large scale and has a far-sighted vision.

"Director Li, I agree to your request, but I have one condition, which is whether we can use the equipment in the laboratory building here together."

Li Duoyu smiled and said: "It's simple. You come here first this year and use it. Next year I will build a new experimental building for you directly at Guan Jingyang's place, saving you the trouble of running around."

After hearing this, Liu Jiafu's eyes were shining, but He Gang was silenced!

Really rich! (End of chapter)
