Chapter 213 Shrimp Fry
Inside the food store.

Seeing that Luopan didn't want to say anything, Boss Du didn't ask any further, and asked, "How much flour do you want this time?"

Since the corn from Fat Miao'er's house came out, he never bought cornmeal again, so Boss Du didn't mention it.

"hey-hey!"

Compass grinned and rubbed his hands together.

"Boss Du, this time I will not buy white flour, but corn flour."

Hearing this, Boss Du's eyes lit up. Don't look at the fact that white flour earns more than corn flour, but a few people buy less, and corn flour is different. Every time they buy twenty or thirty catties.

"How much cornmeal do you want?" Boss Du asked.

"One hundred catties."

Su Qingfeng took a step forward and said to Boss Du.

Boss Du was taken aback, and looked at the compass in surprise.

Compass was also startled, and looked at Su Qingfeng in confusion: "Uncle Su, why did you buy so many?"

"not much."

Su Qingfeng shook his head.

It turned out that when Su Qingfeng came out today, Su Dashan took the silver for him and told him to buy a hundred catties of cornmeal back.

Since the members of the Su family came to Fat Miao'er's house, the food they ate has been provided by Fat Miao'er and the others, which made Su Dashan feel very sorry.

A few days ago, he had no time and was busy all the time. This time, Su Qingfeng happened to buy grain, so he bought some more. One was steamed buns for sale, and the other was to eat by himself.

Hearing this answer, Compass rolled his eyes and understood the reason, and said to Boss Du without saying anything, "One hundred catties."

"Okay, one hundred catties!"

Boss Du yelled and turned around to get noodles inside.

"Wait a moment."

The compass called out.

Boss Du turned his head to look at the compass, not knowing why.

Compass rubbed his hands, narrowed his small eyes, and said with a smile: "Boss Du, the price..."

"Old rules."

Boss Du replied.

"Okay, okay, Boss Du, hurry up, the family is still waiting for the noodles to be cooked." Compass urged.

"Just you kid!"

Boss Du laughed and cursed, then turned and left.

Fat Miao'er and the others bought a lot of cornmeal, and at that time it was the price negotiated by the compass, which was five cents cheaper per [-] catties.

After a while, Boss Du put a large bag of cornmeal in front of Luopan and Su Qingfeng.

"Do you need to weigh it?" Boss Du asked.

"No, no, I can't trust Boss Du's behavior!" Luo Pan flattered.

They often buy cornmeal. This big bag is exactly one hundred catties unopened.

Su Qingfeng took out his purse, counted out 390 Wuwen and handed it to Boss Du.

Boss Du reached out to take it, counted it again, and put it into his arms after confirming that it was correct.

"Boss Su, we may not have time to come here in the future. This is my Uncle Su. He will often come to buy cornmeal, and you should pay it cheaper."

Compass introduced Su Qingfeng to Boss Du.

"Hello Boss Du, my name is Su Qingfeng."

Su Qingfeng nodded slightly to Boss Du.

Boss Du bowed back and said, "Don't worry, as long as you buy it, it will definitely be the cheapest price."

"Then thank you, Boss Du."

The compass arched its hands.

After exchanging a few more pleasantries, Su Qingfeng moved the cornmeal to the donkey cart, and the two left.

Then the two went to the butcher shop again and bought some big bone sticks. This time Su Qingfeng bought another one, and brought Fat Miao'er and the others out to the construction team.

Luo Pan originally disagreed, but Su Qingfeng couldn't be persuaded, so he had no choice but to give up.

……

a few days later.

on the pier.

The shrimp larva that Fat Miaoer had agreed with the customer finally arrived. There were three large barrels, each of which was about [-] catties, and the total weight was about [-] catties.

"Fat Meow, is this a crayfish?" Compass looked at the bucket with a curious expression.

"Correct."

Fat Miaoer nodded, staring at the crayfish intently, swallowing subconsciously, wishing to make them into spicy crayfish and eat them right away.

Unfortunately, I can't eat it yet.

This batch of shrimp seedlings should be put into rice fields, and they can be harvested after two months.

At that time, the shrimp species will be kept and put in next year. In this way, it can be regarded as an investment, with continuous income and huge profits.

After the check was correct, Fat Miao'er handed over the 20 taels of silver to the merchant, feeling pain in the compass.

"Fat Miao'er, is this thing worth 20 taels?"

Compass leaned over and asked in a low voice.

"Of course!"

Fat Meow raised his chin.

The compass still didn't believe it, and turned around the three barrels several times.

"Third brother, don't worry, when have I ever done a loss-making business?"

Fat Miao'er said confidently.

"That too."

Compass nodded. Raising frogs is an example. It’s just that Luopan felt a little distressed when he invested 20 taels this time.

"Father, brother-in-law, let's quickly load the car and pull it back into the rice field. If it's late, it won't be good for the shrimp seedlings."

Fat Miao'er said to Su Qingfeng and Zhou Laosan beside him.

Fat Miao'er came to the pier to wait for the shrimp seedlings, and naturally had to go to the patrol station to visit Zhou Laosan.

Zhou Laosan heard her story and insisted on coming to prevent merchants from cheating. Anyway, he is also Hebo's deputy envoy.

As the saying goes: the county magistrate is not as good as the current management, that is the reason.

But when he saw what Fat Miao'er bought for 20 taels, he was also shocked.

"well!"

Zhou Laosan was startled, recovered his senses, nodded again and again, and together with Su Qingfeng, quickly loaded the barrel onto the donkey cart.

"Father, let's go back first."

Fat Miao'er jumped onto the donkey cart and waved at Zhou Laosan.

"Be careful on the road."

Zhou Laosan warned, thinking to himself: That's 20 taels!

Enough to buy a few acres of land.

"Oh, I see!"

Fat Miaoer nodded heavily.

After Su Qingfeng and Luopan also greeted Zhou Laosan respectively, the three of them drove the donkey cart back to Dashi Village.

After a stick of incense.

The three returned to Dashi Village and came to the rice field.

"Fat meow, how do you keep them?" Su Qingfeng asked.

"Put a bucket in each field, just pour it into the shrimp ditch, and put these two on the outermost side."

Fat Miao'er pointed to the two buckets of seed shrimp and the shrimp ditch in the paddy field.

The shrimp ditch was dug by Su Qingfeng a few days ago. It is the main place for crayfish to inhabit, forage and grow.

It usually consists of three parts: ring side ditch, field ditch and holding pond.

After listening, Su Qingfeng poured the three barrels of shrimp fry into the shrimp ditch in the rice field according to Fat Miao'er's instructions.

"Fat Meow, what does this crayfish eat?"

Compass looked at the crayfish wandering in the shrimp ditch and asked.

Su Qingfeng also turned his head, wanting to listen.

"Cough cough!"

Fat Miao'er cleared his throat, put his hands behind his back, and put on an old-fashioned look.

"Crayfish eat a variety of things, such as small fish, phytoplankton, algae, earthworms, miscellaneous fish, corn, bean cakes, etc. It can be said to be very easy to breed."

"However, there is another biggest advantage of raising shrimp in rice fields..."

"What is the advantage?" Compass asked.

Fat Miao'er smiled triumphantly: "Shrimp can eat aquatic plants and pests in rice fields. In this way, we can eliminate pests and don't have to worry about feeding problems."

"Just throw in a little food once in a while when the prawns are growing."

"The most important thing is that shrimp feces can promote the growth of rice fields, killing two birds with one stone."
