That Zheng Quanfang also glanced at Li Shouhan with a little arrogance, and shook his hands, "The adult is on the pastor's side, guarding hundreds of thousands of people, what virtue can Zheng dare to gamble with the general?" However, Bojun smiled between the games. I wonder what the general wants to gamble on? ”

Shouhan drew a circle in the air with his hand, "I bet with Brother Xinyuan about the hatching of these fish eggs, if you follow my method and operate strictly, the fish fry produced are not worse than what I said, it will be regarded as a fluke for Shouhan." If it is not enough,......"

"That's Mr. Zheng won!" Someone in the crowd whispered.

"Not bad! That's Mr. Zheng winning! The bet is five hundred taels of silver! In addition, 500 acres of good paddy fields were donated by my Li family. ”

There was an immediate buzz in the crowd, and such a bet was enough to change the lives of Zheng Quanfang's family for several generations.

Seeing such a huge temptation in front of him, Zheng Quanfang was very calm, "My lord, you just said that Zheng was lucky, that's it." If it is as you said, there is not so much silver taels and acres of land lost to the adults. ”

Joke! Now there are legends everywhere that you Li Shouhan is the person chosen by the Emperor of Heaven, in case the method you said is really fulfilled, where can I go to find that lot of silver paddy fields for you?

"Mr. Zheng, don't worry. If Shouhan is lucky, he doesn't need Mr. to lose a penny. Shouhan Shao must not borrow Mr. Elsewhere. ”

At this point, Zheng Quanfang naturally had nothing to say, took the thin booklet handed over by Shouhan, and carefully flipped through it. At first, it was just nonchalant, but after reading a few lines, he put away his nonchalant and disapproving expression, and his demeanor became very formal, and it was not so one-glance and ten-line reading booklet.

He looked at Li Shouhan with the eyes of a child looking forward to new clothes and delicious food, and Shouhan smiled, "It's still the same number just now, one hundred carp, half male and half female." If you follow my method, I can guarantee that you can use at least 60% of the roe for hatching, and about 60% of the roe can hatch and give birth to at least 50% of the fry. After fifteen days, you will have at least 1.5 million fry alive and feeding in the paddy fields. ”

While listening, Zheng Quanfang kept nodding his head, like a chicken pecking at broken rice.

"Feeding is best done with soy milk."

These words suddenly surprised the three people present, this, it is too unbelievable, right? Soy milk? Nowadays, not everyone can drink anything! Without him, although some plots of land have been arranged to grow soybeans, peanuts, sesame and other crops, after all, the quantity is too small, and they still have to be purchased from the mainland. However, Shouhan still didn't care about it.

"After feeding the fry and hatching small fish, they should be fed with soybean milk, and a bucket of soybean milk (50 catties) should be used per acre. Remember to knock the bucket with a wooden spoon before feeding the soy milk and tell the fish fry to start the meal. After 15 days of continuous feeding, the grown fry are scooped up and put into the cage where they were made, and thrown into the pond for feeding. ”

Zheng Quanfang listened while nervously calculating in his heart, fifty catties of soybean milk per mu per day, this cost, compared with the output, is still a big gap, that is to say, if it can really be as the general said, even if it is fed with soybean milk, the profit in it is also very large. However, it seems that the general did not mention the two crucial links, that is, how to get the fish to shake the seeds and how to hatch them.

"My lord, the small people should go all out and live up to the general's trust. However, there are still a few things that are not clear, and I hope that the Lord will tell you clearly. After hesitating for a long time, Zheng Quanfang made up his mind and gambled!

Hum! You are like a ghost, and you have to drink Lao Tzu's footwashing water! Shouhan was secretly proud in his heart, and his purpose was to support the people in the territory to develop rice and fish farming, and to raise fish in rice fields, so that the current output, whether it was a yield or a total amount of paddy fields, could be upgraded, and then promote the increase of rice production. In the end, the goal of providing sufficient staple and non-staple food for the non-agricultural population was achieved in the heart of Shouhan.

Clapping his hands with high fives, Shouhan motioned to the soldiers around him to take the worship box in the study.

Opening the box, Zheng Quanfang hurriedly glanced at a few times, only to see that there were pictures and words, and it was still about fish farming, but it was much more detailed than the thin booklet in his hand. When throwing seeds, willow and other branches and leaves should be laid in water, and the wicker should be fished out when hatching, spread out on the flat ground, so that the sun is sufficient, and the moisture of the wicker should be guaranteed, and the fish roe should not be dried. What surprised him the most was that almost half of the text on the cages in which the fish were flipped seeds was devoted to the method of decontamination. The cage should be soaked in salt water for a day to be disinfected, and then taken out to dry after disinfection, and then disinfected in salt water, at least more than three times, so that the cage is clean and suitable for fish seeds.

"Lord, I don't know how much you can gain after such a while?" I carefully flipped through these eye-opening and unbelievable things, and clenched the thin booklet tightly in my hand. Zheng Quanfang voiced his doubts.

"Just now you have calculated the number of fry, I tell you, according to my method, the survival rate of feeding fry is about ninety, if you are more careful, maybe it can reach ninety-five. Do the math, for a penny a fish fry, how much can you receive when you sell it to a farmer who raises fish in the rice field? And then how much can you earn per year from your own farming? Not only fresh fish, but you can also buy some salt to process the fish you can't eat into salted fish. As soon as he spoke, the eyes of the more than 100 people present were shining, and people were looking forward to the scene when they could eat the fat carp in the future.

"And, guys, are you interested in betting on another game?" Shouhan's eyes were full of smiles, looking at the group of guys in front of him who were excitedly discussing how to raise and eat fish.

"My gamble is that if the fish fry are put into the rice fields, when it is time to harvest, the income per mu of paddy fields will increase at least five stones, reaching ten stones per mu."

"If the ranking does not reach this number, Shouhan is willing to pay out of his own pocket to make up the difference for you."

This sentence, like the thunder of spring, exploded in people's ears.

Soon, the fish farmers selected from each village signed a contract with the General's Mansion on behalf of their respective villages, and the general content was that after going back, they would promote the rice and fish farming technology in their respective villages, and if they could not increase the harvest after the autumn, the General's Mansion was willing to make up the difference with cash or other equivalent items. However, the prerequisite is that it must be carefully cultivated and intensively cultivated.

After signing the contract and drawing the charge, people excitedly surrounded Zheng Quanfang and began to carefully figure out how to serve these little treasures according to the technical essentials of Shouhan.

"Dong Weng, is this possible?"

Wu Cunjie was a little uncertain in his heart, it was a contract signed with almost all the villages under him, if it really could not meet the standard of bumper harvest and increased production, the white silver in the treasury, and the yellow and clear treasures would flow out like a flood.

"Pure wolf, don't worry. That Zheng Quanfang is a good fish farmer, and he is also a person who has read books, and there will be no mistake for him to take the lead in this matter. ”

Shouhan's words are good, his vision is also good, and the person Zheng Quanfang who chose is indeed very attentive, and half a month later, Zheng Quanfang came to see Li Shouhan in a hurry.

"My lord! My lord! What a happy event! Great joy! ”

The eggs handed over to him by Shouhan have basically hatched completely, and after these days of raising, they have grown into small fry.

"The little people are stupid, they don't know the height of the sky, they dare to bet on the game with adults, and now, the villain loses convinced."

Zheng Quanfang's face was calm, in his opinion, losing to Li Shouhan is losing to the truth, and there is no shame.

"Brother Xinyuan, do you already know all about fish egg hatching, fish fry breeding and many other matters?"

Li Shouhan stared at Zheng Quanfang without blinking.

"Yes, moreover, the method of raising fish in the rice field that the adult said, the villain probably has an eyebrow in his heart, and he knows how to promote it in the village."

"That's good, Brother Xinyuan, do you remember our gambling game? I said that if I win by luck, I have to borrow a word or two from my dude. Now, the matter of rice field fish farming and reclamation is going to be annoying to the old man! ”

In a few years, what has the development of fish farming in Nanzhong been? Two things can be seen. One is a new immigrant who was working on a pig farm and was surprised to find that the sows who gave birth were given fish soup. The purpose is the same as that of people, to ensure nutrition and milk. The other is a folk standard, only the poor can only eat fish every day.

Just when almost every village under Li Shouhan was in full swing to promote the new agricultural technology of rice and fish farming, another thing happened that made his mouth crooked with a smile.

"Owner, no, my lord, our coking pond had some accidents last night, a pool of coal, after coking, these things came out," Lin Ashui, who was in charge of coking, put a crockpot on Li Shouhan's desk in frustration.

Shouhan looked down, it seemed to look a little familiar, "How is this?" What is it? Fauber walked in with the ledger in his hand with a smile on his face, looking curiously at the black thing.

"It's coal, coal coke, ......" Lin Ai was about to explain, and a sentence hit Li Shouhan like a flint, coal tar! This thing is coal tar! What is the big use in coal tar? If nothing else, dyes alone are enough!

"Fauber! Fast! Bring the strongest liquor! ”……

A month later, several brand-new buildings were erected along several rivers in Ha Tinh Mansion, and on the huge signboard, a dignified and agile character was written, "Tonghe Dyeing Workshop".

Vehicles pulling white homespun cloth came in and out in an endless stream.
