I don't want to be a saint

Chapter 243 The ten-acre square pond is opened, and the sky, clouds and shadows linger together!

The ancient Yunmengze is just northeast of Jiangling City. After thousands of years of silting, it has long lost its original appearance.

The silted river sand divided Yunmengze into dozens of lakes and ponds of various sizes.

And around those lakes and ponds, there are continuous swamps and tidal flats, which completely separate these lakes and ponds, and most of them are not connected to each other.

Only when there is a heavy rain and the water rises, the flood floods over the tidal flats can connect some low ponds together.

Therefore, His Royal Highness the King of Chu spared no expense in financial and material resources to connect these lakes and ponds for flood discharge.For this reason, He Tongpan strongly opposed it, saying that it was a waste of money and people.

Because, every year is blocked, and every year is blocked.

After you dredge it, it will be blocked again within a year or so.

But what Guo Yi thinks is that anyway, the treasury now has a stable income, and at most it will be cleared once a year.Think of it as distributing wealth to the people, and increasing the income of the people in disguise.

Zhuzi drove the mule cart to a stop at the edge of the swamp, and Han Liuping quickly jumped off the mule cart, walked to a pond in front of him, looked in, and couldn't help sighing, "My old man hasn't been here for some years." After that, it still looks like this! I don’t know if those old duck-raising guys are still there?”

"If they don't raise ducks, what can they do?" Han Yuansan also jumped off the mule cart, came to the pond, and continued, "This thousand-mile water marsh is a good place to raise ducks. There are a lot of fish, shrimps and crabs in it." , I have to save a lot of feed!"

"Haha!" Guo Yi smiled and nodded, "That's the truth! I also bought more than 2 ducks a few days ago and threw them in!"

Good guy!
Look at people here, what they say is about 2, first they said that they fed tens of thousands of rabbits, and then they said they bought more than [-] ducks!
Han Liuping couldn't help being a little speechless: "Little Lang, your family is a big battle, you raise rabbits and ducks, and you also raise fish!

With so many things raised, can they be sold?A rabbit costs four or five hundred dollars at least!Not to mention ducks, they cost six or seven hundred dollars! "

While talking, several people walked around the pond and headed into Daze.

Guo Yi walked in front, and replied without looking back: "Our family's business is spread out, not only in Jiangling, but also in big cities like Tokyo and Nanjing!
Where are these more than ten thousand ducks and rabbits?I plan to reach more than 20 by the end of next year! "

More than 20 pieces?
What is this concept?
The two old men in the back were already dumbfounded, and Han Yuansan asked calmly: "According to Mr. Xiaolang, do you have to raise so many fish?"

"That's not right!" Guo Yi nodded without hesitation and said, "It can only be more, not less!" Then, he stretched out his hand to circle the big marsh in front of him, and then said, "This big marsh in front of us can't be planted. Wouldn’t it be too wasteful if the crops were not used to raise fish and just idle like this?”

He didn't dare to think about it before, because when there was a heavy rain, the water in the Daze would be full, and the fish raised in it would be washed away by the flood.

But now it is different, because there is cement.It is possible to build embankments around the fish pond and enclose it high.

When he discussed with the King of Chu last night, he mentioned various wonderful uses of cement.Ever since, His Royal Highness Chu Wang was very generous, and planned to dispatch more than [-] people to produce cement with all his strength.

A large workshop with more than [-] people can be ranked first in the entire Zhou Dynasty.Of course, this large workshop with more than [-] people does not mean that it can be built just because it is built, and there must be detailed plans and arrangements.

After all, this is related to the deployment of personnel, the location of the workshop, various production plans, and wages and so on.

But now, only the septic tank in the north of the city and the crane base of the wharf need to use cement, and there is also the fish pond in front of him. For the time being, it is barely enough.

Guo Yi walked in front, pointed to the big lake not far away, and said, "You two veterans, take a look at this lake. It's full of water, but idle here, isn't it a waste of time!"

Because of the flood discharge of the Dongjing River a few days ago, the lake is already full and is almost level with the shore.It is tens of acres in size, and the water is sparkling, reflecting the blue sky, like a huge sapphire.

When the ten-acre square pond is opened, the sky, clouds and shadows linger together.

Occasionally, fish floated to the surface and spit out a string of bubbles.

Han Yuansan followed closely behind him and also saw the huge sapphire. He couldn't help but nodded and said: "Yes! Yes! It's a good place to raise fish!"

After finishing speaking, he walked to the lake, squatted down, raised a handful of water with both hands, brought it to his mouth, and tasted it carefully: "Well, the water is not bad! It is suitable for raising fish!"

As he spoke, he stood up and began to undress.

Guo Yi immediately understood what he meant, but he was taken aback. He quickly waved his hands to stop him and said, "Old Zhan, you can't do it! You can't do it! Let's find two strong young men to do the work of entering the water!"

"Hahaha...!" The two old men immediately laughed loudly: "Young man, I grew up in the water, but don't underestimate us! You must die in the water!"

While talking, all that was left was a pair of crotch pants, and he began to move his body.

Guo Yi couldn't help laughing wryly: "But let me tell you first, I haven't been in the water for many years!"

When he was a child in his previous life, he also grew up in the water, but he went out to work before graduating from junior high school. He was beaten by the society and exhausted all day long. He didn't have the mood to play in the water.

"It's okay!" The two old men waved their hands indifferently, and responded with a smile: "Just wait on the shore, Mr. Xiaolang, we both have to go down and take a good look! We have to see clearly, don't dare to miss it." It's a big deal for Mr. Xiaolang!"

"That's right! This is the housekeeping skill of the two of us. Let others go down and look at it, but we don't worry about it!"

Finished, plop!thump!Both jumped.

Guo Yi was very helpless, and began to take off his robe, just in case.

In other words, these two old men are quite upright, they agreed to help him raise fish, and they are quite old, but they actually went into the water to check it themselves.

However, they all grew up in the water, so they naturally have a good water quality. After the two old men came out of the water to change their breath twice, they swam to the shore.

Han Liuping wiped the water off his face, and said with a smile, "Mr. Xiaolang, this big lake is really not bad! The grass carp and herring in it are of all ages! It's a good place to raise fish!"

"Well, that's good!" Guo Yi nodded and agreed: "Well, let's go inside and check a few more ponds. When I go back at noon, I will arrange manpower. I will send dozens of strong young men to you two. , I will start fishing for fry tomorrow.

I will find another construction team and start building the embankment around the lake. "

"Okay!" The two old men nodded hurriedly: "Let's go! Go ahead and have a look!"
