Chapter 480: Cultivating Shrimp Seedlings (Make up for Yesterday) (1/2)

Minlong Foods recently hired a new security guard, and this person is none other than Zhu Xiuhua’s biological father.

Zhu Jianmin, the father-in-law of the second brother Li Yaoguo, is like his daughter, with a big hip and a fat body.

He is also the only person in the village who dares to pick up a stick to hit Zhu Xiuhua, which is why Zhu Xiuhua couldn’t enter the eel factory after she came that day.

Although Zhu Jianmin is tall, he is different from his daughter. He doesn’t make trouble. On the contrary, he is very low-key.

It’s that face, born with a face full of fat, which is even more terrifying when he smiles.

Li Duoyu still remembers that when Haoran was a child, his grandfather came to see him several times, but he was scared to tears every time.

The children in the village also gave him a nickname (black face), which roughly means that his face is very smelly and fierce.

Maybe because of his unpopular appearance, Zhu Jianmin did not work in the village, but raised goats on the island. Half of the goats on the island were raised by him.

He usually lives outside the village, and is rarely seen in the village. When goat milk is produced, he occasionally comes to the village to sell goat milk.

When little Tutu was weaned, Li Duoyu bought a lot of fresh goat milk from him.

And the second brother invited him here to guard against the second sister-in-law, after all, many technologies in the eel factory have been updated this year.

If Zhu Xiuhua insisted on coming in to learn secretly while Li Duoyu was away, he would definitely not be able to stop her with his body.

So, Li Yaoguo thought of his father-in-law and went to discuss it with him. The other party was also very straightforward and sold all the goats directly and came to the eel factory to work as a guard.

Although he looks a bit fierce, his father-in-law is a very gentle and reasonable person.

Several times he had conflicts with Zhu Xiuhua, and the father-in-law would beat his daughter first without saying a word.

Just now, the uncle Chen Dongqing ran into Zhu Jianmin, but Zhu Jianmin didn't know Chen Dongqing at all, and he didn't let him in no matter what, which made him so angry that he blew his beard and glared.

After Li Duoyu arrived at the eel factory, the middle-aged man with a face full of flesh immediately opened the door.

Li Duoyu smiled and said, "Uncle Jianmin, this is my uncle. Next time he comes, you don't have to stop him."

The burly Zhu Jianmin smiled and said, "Okay, I'll remember him."

Chen Dongqing glanced at him and immediately turned away. It was just a very ordinary sentence, but why did it sound threatening when it came out of his mouth?

After arriving at Li Duoyu's eel factory, Chen Dongqing found that the changes were quite big. Compared with last year, it seemed to be more and more standardized.

There was also an additional boiler similar to the one for boiling water. The eel fry breeding pond was covered with colorful plastic sheets, and there was still steam coming out faintly.

Chen Dongqing asked:

"Duoyu, what are you doing? Cooking fish? What is this?"

Li Duoyu rolled his eyes at him: "You really can't understand, then you really read all these books in vain."

"I can't understand a thing. I just haven't seen such a crude heating device."

"Not bad, Comrade Dongqing. It seems that you haven't become stupid after studying. Your brain is quite flexible."

Chen Dongqing really wanted to kick his bastard nephew to death.

Looking at the boiler in front of him for boiling water, Li Duoyu was also helpless. The machinery factory did have temperature control equipment.

But to be honest, Li Duoyu really didn't have the courage to use it. After all, people like them who engage in breeding are most afraid of equipment failure.

If the temperature control equipment has a problem, maybe all the eel fry will be boiled.

The consequences are horrible to think about, even if the factory director said: the probability of failure of the machine equipment is only a few tenths of a percent.

But once it happens, it will fall on him, that is 100%.

Li Duoyu is not a gambler. It is better to use manual real-time monitoring and manual water temperature control, which is more reliable.

This equipment is also the reason why the second brother refused to let the second sister-in-law come in. Duoyu told him that this equipment is the fundamental reason why the eel fry in Haixin Eel Factory are not well raised.

Although the eel fry are caught in cold weather, the temperature must be above 15° for these little things to eat and grow.

When the water temperature is controlled at around 20°, the food snatching behavior is very obvious. Once the red worms are splashed, they will be snatched up by these eel fry immediately.

Chen Dongqing walked around and couldn't help but admire: "Your eel breeding technology is becoming more and more mature."

Li Duoyu smiled.

"People will always make progress."

"When will you authorize me to cultivate eels?"

"You wish."

Li Duoyu continued: "By the way, my ponds are still empty. Please introduce a shrimp fry factory to me. I will try to raise shrimp for a season before the crab fry season arrives."

Seeing Li Duoyu talking about this, Chen Dongqing sighed. He came to the island to find him today just for this matter.

Chen Dongqing took a puff of his cigarette: "I heard that you made a lot of money from Haixin recently. Did you have a falling out with them?"

"You are well-informed. It's not a falling out. It's just an ordinary cooperative relationship."

Chen Dongqing sighed:

"You think it's ordinary, but others don't. The batch of shrimp seedlings purchased by our research institute was from Haixin. Yesterday, Haixin's people came overnight and imposed restrictions on us. Any seedlings related to their company are not allowed to cooperate with Li Duoyu and Minlong Company."

"Fuck, so vindictive."

Chen Dongqing glared:

"You're not much better. I paid 30,000 yuan to treat a doctor in their eel factory. I treat others for free."

"We are different. You represent an organization, and you cannot take advantage of the masses. This is a business act. The thirty thousand yuan is just for Xiuhua's sake. If it were someone else, the bottom line would be fifty thousand. rise."

"You are too cruel."

Li Duoyu smiled: "Now you know how scary technology monopoly is."

Chen Dongqing thought for a while: "Ten years ago, I would have sent you all in with my own hands."

"Times have changed, Comrade Dongqing, we have to look at money now. Earning more foreign exchange for the country and buying more technical equipment is the best way."

Li Duoyu then said: "How about we work together to see if we can cultivate shrimp seedlings."

"Duoyu, do you know how to cultivate it?"

After taking over the task of raising shrimp, Chen Dongqing discovered that it was a big pit. The shrimp seedlings were in the hands of several nursery companies, and they were sold very expensively. Mature shrimp farming technology is also not disclosed, which is one of the reasons why the price of shrimp is so high.

While shouting for vigorous development, there are also various technical barriers, which makes them, the grassroots staff, quite uncomfortable.

Li Duoyu made a random excuse: "Do you still remember the islander who bought my eel? I have a good relationship with him. He briefly mentioned to me some methods for broodstock to lay eggs."

Chen Dongqing thought for a while and realized that if he teamed up with Duoyu to cultivate shrimp seedlings, he would definitely offend the people on Haixin's side.

But Duoyu is not a soft persimmon, so easy to control. After all, there is a leader above him to protect him.

Although he is just a small technical technician, he has been in this circle for so long, and he can finally see that the situation above is really a mixed bag.

There are those from the development faction and there are those from the money-making faction. This document to vigorously develop shrimp farming was issued by the development faction. It is hard to say what the elements of Haixin's side are.

After Chen Dongqing smoked a cigarette, he thought about it seriously and then said: "Fuck it, let's do it together. A grown man is born in the world. How can he be timid? It's a bullshit."

Li Duoyu continued: "However, we agreed in advance that after the broodstock breeding technology is developed, the technology will be owned by Minlong Company for the first five years. After five years, you can dispose of it as you wish."

"Damn it, you are too dark, what good does that do to me?"

Li Duoyu said disgustedly: "I'm providing the money, land and technology for this project. Shouldn't I take the lion's share? When our shrimp farm is built, I'll give you a 500% profit share. How fun is that? ”

Chen Dongqing sighed, and Duoyu said as if nothing was wrong: "First treat me to a meal and a drink."

"Why?"

The uncle said with a look of resentment: "It's not you who caused it. He had nothing to do. He took us to visit some friendship store and spent all the money. After your aunt came back, she thought I didn't earn enough, so she just took all my private money. Come out, tell me, you may not believe it, this is the Chinese New Year, I can’t even afford a boat ticket to Dandan Island.”

Li Duoyu gave a thumbs up: "It's amazing. I actually have private money. I don't have anything like this. I just turned it over directly to Xiaoying."

Chen Dongqing looked at this nephew with great disgust: "Let's have a drink first and then talk about things related to shrimp seedlings."

"Would you like to come to my house to drink?"

"No, my sister will nag me. Let's go to Lao Yang's small frying shop."

For Li Duoyu, he knows how to raise shrimps. He has some land now, so it would not be that difficult to raise them extensively.

But Li Duoyu has never tried breeding shrimp larvae. In the past, he bought shrimp larvae directly from the nursery and never bred them himself.

High-density shrimp farming will make the female shrimp's environment unsuitable, thereby inhibiting the maturation of the female shrimp and prolonging the time it takes to hold eggs.

It seems that many animals are like this. Once they find that the environment is not suitable, they will stop giving birth to the next generation.

For example, if a pregnant giant panda, a national treasure, is not in good condition or the surrounding environment is unsafe, it will actively stop delivering nutrients to the fetus and terminate the pregnancy if it is not conducive to the survival of the cub.

Because giant panda cubs are extremely small compared to the mother cat, the fetus is absorbed by the mother after the pregnancy is terminated.

In fact, human beings are the same. When they have no money and the environment is not good, they simply don’t fall in love, let alone raise the next generation.

In the early years, there were indeed some shrimp farmers, but they all fished out the egg-bearing female shrimps from the sea and then raised them in ponds.

But it all depends on luck, the breeding efficiency is too low, and the yield is often very low. After a few years, no one wants to raise it.

But humans are still humans after all, and they soon discovered a way to stimulate female shrimp to mature earlier.

In the past, Li Duoyu followed his boss to the nursery several times and saw their technicians operating it.

It seems that as long as a shrimp eye is cut off, it seems that there is an X gland in the eyestalk of the shrimp that secretes hormones.

As long as it is cut off, the female shrimp will lose its inhibitory effect. To put it simply, it will make the shrimp mature quickly and let it enter the breeding stage immediately.

It won't take long before one or two male shrimps will chase the female shrimps. Once successful, the female shrimps will soon hold the eggs.

It was this visit that allowed Li Duoyu to see what first- and second-generation shrimp seedlings are, and he also understood that the original breeding shrimp of Penaeus vannamei had been stuck abroad.

At the most exaggerated time, the price of a pair of vannamei broodstock (breeding shrimp) was as high as 200 US dollars.

Li Duoyu thought that since Haixin was unwilling to give him shrimp seedlings, he might as well do the research himself. It would be better to do it himself than to be strangled by others.

Although Li Duoyu still didn't understand a lot about shrimp breeding, it would save a lot of trouble if his uncle joined.

At Lao Yang's restaurant, the two hit it off and immediately decided to build a shrimp nursery in Qixing Bay.

The site and research and development funds were all provided by Li Duoyu. After the research was successful, Minlong Company enjoyed the exclusive right to use it for five years.

Even Chen Dongqing could not authorize it privately. After five years, Li Duoyu would authorize this technology to Chen Dongqing or his aquatic research institute.

Just when they were full and satisfied, Li Duoyu saw Lao Lu at the dock, who was receiving a young man attentively.

And the young man was carrying a medical box with a cross printed on it and a large cloth bag on his back.

Lao Lu said he was a barefoot doctor, but Li Duoyu looked at him and felt that the young man looked more like a doctor than Li Xiaorong.

He is just a little younger, wearing a pair of glasses, with a very elegant temperament, and he is also quite handsome, but he is a little worse than him.

Maybe intellectuals have the habit of looking down on each other. When Chen Dongqing saw this man, he immediately became hostile: "This pretty boy is a charlatan at first glance, and Lao Lu will be deceived."

Li Duoyu said disdainfully: "Go back quickly, if it's too late, be careful that my aunt will let you sleep on the floor again."

The uncle burped and said arrogantly: "What's there to be afraid of? After all, I am the head of the family."

"Cook it if you want to."

"No way, who told me to cook better than her? The food she cooks is disgusting to dogs."

After the young doctor came, he was directly invited to Lao Lu's house.

After Lao Lu's hard work in promoting this month, this young barefoot doctor has become a "god-like" existence in everyone's eyes.

After hearing the news, many villagers all ran to Lao Lu's house, all intending to see him for treatment.

At this time, Li Xiaorong found Zhang Defa: "Let's go and take a look together."

Zhang Defa said awkwardly: "You go if you want to go, I won't go and lose face anyway."

"Don't you want to know why the young barefoot doctor is so sure that the thing is a lipoma?"

Zhang Defa hesitated for a while, and then followed Li Xiaorong to the old Lu family to see this magical barefoot doctor. (End of this chapter)
