371. Chapter 367 It’s Stable, Outperforming the Ringworm (1/2)

Chapter 367 It's stable, outrunning the ringworm

Some time ago, the two puppies bought from the dog dealer were playing in the factory. Seeing that Li Duoyu was busy, they ran to his feet and rubbed against each other.

They also made a "woof woof" sound.

After the two puppies came to the eel factory, the food became better, the dog's fur looked smoother, and the pair of black big eyes, wagging their tails, were quite cute.

But Li Duoyu didn't have time to play with them now. Seeing that they kept bothering him, Li Duoyu directly asked Chen Wenchao to put them in the dog cage.

Chinese herbal medicines such as Stemona, Sophora flavescens, Melia azedarach, Cyperus rotundus, Artemisia annua, and Areca catechu all have strong anti-parasitic effects.

Melia azedarach also has the effects of astringent hemostasis and diarrhea, while Phellodendron chinense and Poria cocos can dry dampness, clear heat, inhibit bacteria and detoxify.

According to the method learned in the previous life, Li Duoyu mixed the Chinese herbal medicine powder in a certain proportion, and then slowly boiled it in a large iron pot.

While boiling the medicine,

Li Duoyu also picked up the eels and placed those suffering from mad swimming in cement pools No. 1, No. 2 and No. 3.

At the same time, he also picked up relatively healthy eels and placed them in cement pools No. 4, No. 5 and No. 6.

When treating eels, you almost always have to test the medicine first. If you pour it directly into the eel pool without testing the medicine, if something really goes wrong, it will be too late to regret.

After all, medicine is three-point poison.

You must be very careful when using medicine. If the dosage is not controlled well, the eel will probably die before the disease is cured.

In the case of no 100% certainty, it is still necessary to test the medicine.

Next, Li Duoyu dissected an eel suffering from mad swimming. The gills were swollen to the point that they could not be covered, and some sticky liquid flowed out.

The gill filaments in the gill cover were a bit messy, not as regular as normal eels, and there were grayish-white spots, which were the characteristics of being parasitized by a large number of ringworms.

The gills of fish are equivalent to human lungs, which are used to breathe oxygen. Once there is a problem, they are likely to die of lack of oxygen.

Just as the diseases that take away the most people are related to breathing, the same is true for fish. The gills are also very easy to get sick.

After the outbreak of ringworm, not only will eels die of lack of oxygen, but also cause eels to suffer from various diseases.

After checking the gills, Li Duoyu cut open the eel's belly with a knife and checked the stomach and intestines, just as he expected.

The eel's stomach was empty. It had not eaten at all recently, but fortunately its stomach and intestines were relatively healthy and no other symptoms appeared.

If only one disease was treated, Li Duoyu would still be confident. The most feared thing was the superposition of multiple diseases. Even professional eel doctors in later generations would have to shake their heads after seeing it.

After dissecting the eels with symptoms, Li Duoyu also dissected some eels that looked "relatively" healthy.

These eels looked quite energetic and difficult to catch. They had to be knocked unconscious before the next step of inspection could be carried out.

Just like the previous one, Li Duoyu checked the gills and found white spots, but the symptoms were mild.

This relatively healthy eel should be fine for another ten days or half a month, but since it needs to be treated, let's treat them all at once.

"Duoyu, are you back?"

At this time, A Niang's voice came from outside the eel factory. After hearing the voice, Li Duoyu looked outside.

He found A Niang carrying Xiao Tutu and carrying a basket to the eel factory.

"Mother, I'm back."

Chen Huiying put the basket with lunch on the ground, then untied the strap that tied little Tutu, and said angrily:

"You're back, but you didn't know to come home for dinner. If I hadn't seen your boat at the dock, I wouldn't have known to cook for you."

Li Duoyu grinned and said, "I had something to do and was busy, so I didn't go home first. I won't do it next time."

Chen Huiying frowned and said, "I made taro rice and kelp soup for you. Lunch time has passed, so you should eat it while it's hot."

When little Tutu saw Li Duoyu, he immediately acted like a spoiled child:

"Daddy, I want a hug."

Li Duoyu knew what he wanted to do, so he hugged little Tutu in his arms, and then gently touched his arm with his beard stubble.

"Daddy, bad."

Although little Tutu called his father bad, he laughed very happily and especially liked Li Duoyu playing with him like this.

Then she grabbed his beard, and when she couldn't get it up, she struggled: "Go down and play with the dog."

Little Tutu is over one year old now, and now he can walk very well, and can run from time to time. If you don't pay attention, he can run out of your sight.

Li Duoyu handed little Tutu to A Niang, and signaled her to take little Tutu back.

The eel factory is full of ponds and various mechanical equipment. Li Duoyu didn't dare to let little Tutu play here at all.

Chen Huiying also felt unsafe. After bringing the things over, she forcibly took little Tutu away, but he was like a loach, burrowing in her arms.

Before leaving.

Little Tutu was so wronged that he cried on the spot.

"Daddy, hold me."

"Play with daddy."

Li Duoyu glanced at little Tutu and finally understood why in his previous life, so many businessmen and breeders didn't educate their children well.

The key is that he was too busy and had little time to accompany his children.

Chen Wenchao smiled and said, "Brother Yu, Tutu really likes you. Unlike my kid, she treats me like a stranger when she sees me. She even cries when I hug her."

"Then go back and spend more time with your kid."

Chen Wenchao complained: "Every time I stay at home a little longer, Xiaolan kicks me out."

Looking at little Tutu who keeps calling dad, Li Duoyu is still quite happy. Fortunately, he often plays with him at night, otherwise he would probably ignore him.

What Li Duoyu didn't expect was that his mother simply said: "Little Tutu, be good, I'll go back and give you a lick of maltose."

After hearing this, little Tutu instantly quieted down and said happily: "I want maltose, not dad."

Li Duoyu glanced at Chen Wenchao, smiled awkwardly, and then patted his shoulder: "We are actually similar."

After the Chinese medicine mixture is boiled.

After filtering it, Li Duoyu put it in a large barrel and tested it in each cement pool.

The amount of medicine in pools 1 and 4:

5 mg of Chinese medicine mixture per liter.

The amount of medicine in pools 2 and 5:

8 mg per liter.

The amount of medicine in pools 3 and 6:

10 mg per liter.

Seeing Li Duoyu pouring the mixture in, the second sister-in-law kept staring at the eel pond and couldn't help asking: "Duoyu, how much of this medicine should you put in? Why didn't the eels react at all after you put it in?"

Li Yaoguo shook his head speechlessly and said: "How can it be so fast? Have you ever seen someone get better immediately after taking medicine? Treating an illness is a process, and curing an illness is also a process."

To be honest, Chen Wenchao was really nervous.

These days, hundreds of eels have died one after another, and they have obviously increased in the past two days, which makes him very worried.

I am afraid that tens of thousands of eels will die at once.

After pouring the Chinese medicine mixture into the cement pool, Li Duoyu stirred the water in the pool.

The medicine has been put in, and now he has no other way. Next, the only thing he can do is to wait.

According to the experience of the previous life, the effect of the medicine will take about ten hours to show up.

He subconsciously raised his left hand, and then he realized that he didn't have a watch, so he asked his second brother: "Brother, what time is it now?"

"It's almost three o'clock in the afternoon."

Li Duoyu thought about it, that is to say, it will be around twelve o'clock tomorrow morning to know whether the medicine is effective.

But no matter whether it is effective or not.

Li Duoyu still decided to grind the remaining Chinese herbs into powder.

And the second sister-in-law, when she heard that she had to help grind the medicine, she was so diligent that people felt a little scared.

"Duoyu, I'll do it."

"I'm the best at grinding medicine. No one in the village can grind better than me. I used to grind sweet potato flour and I even won a certificate."

Seeing that everyone was grinding medicine a little slowly, the second sister-in-law pushed the factory cart and went to the dock to borrow a stone mortar and a big wooden hammer.

Put the hardest betel nut in the stone mortar and smash it "clang clang clang". When smashing, even the floor was shaking.

The three men in the eel factory smiled bitterly, because the work efficiency of the three of them combined was not as good as Zhu Xiuhua.

After working for four hours, all the herbs were finally crushed into powder.

At this time, the sky in the east had turned dark, but there was still some azure color in the west where the sun was setting.

On Dandan Island, which was still without power, kerosene lamps were lit one after another, and there was only a faint light from a distance.

None of the street lights were on, and since the power outage, everyone went to bed early.

Li Yaoguo said to Zhu Xiuhua: "Aren't you going back to cook for Haoran and supervise him to do his homework?"

Zhu Xiuhua twisted his arm: "Haoran, don't worry at all. If I'm not here, Haoran will go to A Niang's house to eat."

Li Yaoguo frowned, and everyone present knew what she was thinking, but everyone was too lazy to expose it.

Li Yaoguo handed a cigarette to Li Duoyu and Chen Wenchao respectively, and said: "Do you want to sit outside for a while?"

Li Duoyu took the cigarette: "Sure." The two brothers, plus Chen Wenchao, came to the steps outside the eel factory and sat down directly.

Li Yaoguo asked: "Duoyu, your prescription should be kept secret, is it appropriate to let Xiuhua learn it there?"

Li Duoyu smiled and said: "I am only half-baked myself. If she can learn it by watching like this, then she is really a genius."

Chen Wenchao scratched his head and said: "Actually, I am also watching, but I don't understand what Brother Yu is doing at all."

Li Duoyu smiled and said: "I will teach you later."

In front of them was a mudflat with bamboo poles, and there were many fishing boats fishing in the sea in the distance.

Since Dashitou caught two nets of yellow croaker last night, everyone's enthusiasm for fishing is high today.

The lights suddenly lit up at the fishing raft not far away, and the outlines of several people could be vaguely seen.

But no dog barking could be heard. Judging from the situation, it should be my father and his friends.

Since Lao Li became a manager, he did less work, but the hours were extended. He often refused to "go off work" at seven o'clock.

I always felt that they earned their wages too easily, and often kept everyone until very late.

During this period, many people have come to him to complain that his father arranged too much and too detailed work, and that he was very difficult to get along with, very stubborn, and completely unreasonable.

He often called them to get up at six o'clock to work, and only let them go home at seven o'clock in the evening. He was very stingy and didn't even want to give them tea.

Once, Uncle Youtian had an emergency at home, and planned to take a day off, saying that he would make up for it another day, but his father refused to agree and had to deduct his wages for that day, which made Uncle Youtian so angry that he almost quit on the spot.

Speaking of which, his father was the earliest captain of the fishing team, and Uncle Zhuang occasionally called him the old captain.

But because he was too serious about his work, he didn't get along well with the team members, so his uncle was replaced as the captain.

To be honest, when Li Duoyu was young, he didn't quite understand why his father was so difficult to communicate with. Later, when he was older, he understood.

Not everyone can be smooth, and his father is the kind of person who "can't turn around". Many things can be handled well if they give in a little.

For example, he and his mother fell in love first, and then his fifth uncle had an accident. At that time, the two of them were already pregnant with their eldest brother.

If they had actively communicated with the old lady at that time, the mother and son would not have been separated for more than 30 years.

And when the family was divided, the eldest brother was so angry that he ran away from home. If his father handled the matter more smoothly, there would be no such things later.

In the past, Li Duoyu would complain that his father was not smooth enough, but when he reached a certain age, Li Duoyu realized that it was really arrogant to want to change a person from his own perspective.

According to his mother, he probably couldn't change his bad temper in his lifetime.

Li Duoyu was also afraid that all the new employees would quit.

In the end, Li Duoyu had to secretly increase the salary of the new employees from 30 yuan per month to 35 yuan per month.

For the sake of money, everyone swallowed their anger and continued to listen to Lao Li's command.

And just when they were resting.

Someone came over with a basket, and Li Duoyu looked closely and found that it was Zhou Xiaoying.

Li Duoyu hurried over, took off the shoulder pole on Zhou Xiaoying's shoulders, and asked, "Why is it your turn? Where's mother?"

Zhou Xiaoying sighed, "Mother is angry. She said that she often cooks meals recently, but none of you go back to eat."

Zhou Xiaoying whispered, "Mother, she is mainly angry with father."

Li Duoyu smiled, "Did they quarrel?"

"It's just a small problem, not a quarrel."

Zhou Xiaoying took out the eight-treasure rice in the basket, as well as the pickled vegetable and pork ribs soup.

"Hurry up and eat it while it's hot."

After taking out the dinner, she pulled Li Duoyu aside and took out a piece of red cloth from her pocket. When she turned it over, it turned out to be a watch.

"Last time when I was collecting kelp, your watch broke, and it seemed that you never bought one, so I bought you one."

Li Duoyu looked at the watch in surprise. It was the same model as his junior high school classmate, Zhang Jianhua.

"This watch is very expensive, it must be over a hundred yuan."

Zhou Xiaoying was surprised, then said: "It's not that expensive, this watch is not new, it's only more than 20 yuan, and it just so happens that a colleague of mine is short of money and wants to sell a watch. It looks quite new and he hasn't worn it for long, so he sold it to me at a low price."

"Why, don't you like it?"

"If you don't like it, I can return it, and then I'll buy you a new one."

Li Duoyu shook his head.

"It looks good, and I don't mind if others have worn it before."

"Then I'll buy it."

Li Duoyu smiled, but didn't expose him. This watch is almost brand new, and it's probably not second-hand.

Besides, even if it is second-hand, this kind of quality will sell for 70 or 80 yuan even in the second-hand market.

The last time Zhou Xiaoying celebrated her birthday, Li Duoyu lied about the price of the Walkman. Unexpectedly, it's only been more than a month, and Zhou Xiaoying also lied about the price of the watch.

Just consider it even.

After they finished their meal, Zhou Xiaoying cleaned up the dishes and put them in the basket.

Before leaving, he looked at the watch that Li Duoyu had put on: "Not bad, it looks pretty good."

Li Duoyu said: "By the way, Xiaoying, I may stay overnight at the eel factory tonight, you can lock the door."

Li Duoyu has been busy for two consecutive days. In the past, whenever he was on the island, he would go back to sleep no matter how busy he was.

"Eel, is it serious this time?"

Li Duoyu smiled and said: "It's done, there's no big problem, don't worry, go back and take Tutu."

"Yeah."

After nine o'clock in the evening.

There were only a few lights left in the village, and the second brother turned on the radio and listened to the storytelling.

The second sister-in-law was more like an eel farmer, always staring at the cement pool.

"Duoyu, come and see, the eels in these two pools seem to be a little bit wrong, why are their stomachs white."

Li Duoyu raised his hand and looked at his watch. It was already eleven o'clock in the evening, and eight hours had passed since the potion was added.

Li Duoyu looked and found that the eels in pools 3 and 6 all looked very painful. Some were spinning in the pools, some were just not moving, and some were just turning their bellies upside down.

Drug poisoning!

The second sister-in-law couldn't help asking, "Duoyu, is there something wrong with your medicine?"

Li Duoyu smiled and said, "No problem, it's a good thing."

The second sister-in-law frowned, "How can it be a good thing if they are all dead?"

"You don't understand."

"If I don't understand, then teach me."

"No, this is a confidential information and costs money."

The second sister-in-law gritted her teeth and said, "How much money, I can't give you."

Li Duoyu stretched out five fingers and said, "This number."

The second sister-in-law frowned and said, "Five hundred?"

Li Duoyu shook his head.

The second sister-in-law gritted her teeth and said, "You are too black. You can't charge five thousand for just a skill to treat fish."

Li Duoyu grinned and said, "How can it be five thousand? I said fifty thousand."

After hearing the price, the second sister-in-law was stunned and said with a dark face: "50,000, you might as well go and rob. It's a question whether you can sell these eels for 50,000."

Li Duoyu said seriously: "Second sister-in-law, I'm really not cheating you. At present, my technology is really worth 50,000."

"Really?" Zhu Xiuhua was a little unconvinced. .

Li Duoyu nodded and said: "Why should I lie to you? This technology is not available to my uncle and his family. I guess I'm the only one who knows it now."

After hearing this, Zhu Xiuhua suddenly became excited and felt that it was worth working so hard today.

Although she didn't master a complete set of techniques, she at least mastered half of it. So, her current technology should be worth 20,000.

Fortunately, Zhu Xiuhua didn't say this idea, otherwise Li Duoyu would probably crack on the spot after hearing it.

Li Duoyu fished out a dead eel from the No. 3 pool and found that the gill cover was covered with white foam with a little blood.

After cleaning the foam, Li Duoyu directly cut off the gill cover with scissors and put the eel under the lamp for careful observation.

The grayish white dots on the gills have fallen off on their own.

And this thing is the ringworm group. If it can fall off, it proves that these Chinese medicine mixtures are useful and can effectively kill these ringworms.

But the dosage is too large, and the eel is also poisoned to death. After seeing this scene, Li Duoyu couldn't help but smile.

At this point,

he has already outperformed the ringworm.

Some people say that the pace has been too slow recently. It feels that there are too many characters appearing, which leads to the rhythm not keeping up. Next, I will try to focus on the main line.
