Chapter 66
Old Man Lu smiled.

"Everything has its value. Just like the garbage outside, it is worthless to ordinary people, but to you, it is completely different. Although there are fewer people fighting crickets now, there are still many people in private I like to play. Even I have rarely seen anything with this kind of appearance and fighting ability, let alone a price, so I can only give you a reference price.

Three years ago, Beijing circled a red-robed general and won 33 games in a row. In the end, the cricket was bought for 13. "

"13 million?"

Ye Tian's eyes widened.Even though I have made some money in the past two days, my horizons have broadened a lot.I couldn't help but swallow my saliva at this number.

"That's right, so now, do you still want to give it to me?"

"Give it away! Is there anything I can't give away? But, old man, do you have a way to sell crickets?"

"What, you still have it?"

Hearing that Ye Tian was so generous, Old Man Lu stroked his beard with great relief and said with a smile.

"No, but you can catch it!"

Ye Tian raised his eyebrows.

"Haha, Xiaoye, you can't eat your luck."

"No, old man, there are many big crickets like this in the place where we caught crickets before. As long as you have a way, we can catch them for you right away."

Ye Tian quickly explained.

Old Man Lu laughed and shook his head.

"You are still too young. Let's not talk about whether you can catch the same one. Even if you catch it, so what. The reason why the red-robed general is valuable is because he is unique. If you get a bunch of crickets of this quality, Do you think it can still be worth this price? Don’t tell me you don’t understand the principle that rare things are more valuable.”

"That's it, that's a pity!"

Ye Tian's enthusiasm was suddenly dampened and he was a little disappointed.

"Actually, good crickets are not worthless. The top ones are priced astronomically. But as long as they are of good quality, they are still very popular. In general flower and bird markets, insect king-level crickets can be sold for at least hundreds or thousands of dollars. Better ones. A few thousand is not impossible.”

Seeing that Ye Tian was in low spirits, Old Man Lu continued to speak.

Ye Tian was stunned, thinking about it in his mind, and suddenly lost much interest.

To synthesize a strong-level cricket, one drop of blood must be consumed.

Under my current conditions, if I could get a strong cockroach out with just one drop of blood, the benefits would definitely be more than a few hundred dollars.

So I no longer have to worry about the cricket issue.

Turning to look at the fish tank on the side.

"Old man, do you always look at these little cockroaches like me?"

"I saw it, but they are still too young to see the specific situation. Except that the color is a little yellower than the average newly hatched cockroaches, I don't see anything special. I will record their growth rate every day. As for the reproduction rate , at least we won’t know until they actually grow up and start laying eggs.”

"Then it's troublesome, old man."

Ye Tian nodded, knowing that this matter was not urgent, so he stopped asking any more questions.

I opened the bag I brought, grabbed a handful of chicken wing bones, and threw them into the fish tank.

Seeing this scene, Old Man Lu's eyes widened.

"Xiaoye, what are you doing?"

"Feed the cockroaches..."

Ye Tian didn't know why.Now that we are about to start large-scale breeding, we can't just buy steamed buns and snacks to feed them like a prodigal like Zhang Liang. "Here, I just complimented you a few times, but my true colors have been revealed. Do you feed them like this? Newly born cockroaches have not yet hardened their mouthparts, so they can only suck liquid food. If not, it must be softer vegetable leaves. What's going on if you throw a bunch of chicken bones into rice or something like that?"

"Well, I really didn't think much about it. When I was getting these foods, I was afraid that they would be stored for a long time, so I mainly picked up things that can be stored for a while. I'll look around to see if there's any rice or something."

Ye Tian blushed slightly and said embarrassedly.

"Forget it, you are also beginners, let me do it, but you have to pay attention in the future. Although cockroaches are tough, don't mess around in the larval stage. You must pay attention not only to food, but also to temperature and humidity. To them The growth of cockroaches is also critical. It is best to find someone to fix the room over there at the breeding farm. There must be no gaps. There must be safety nets at the entrance and exit to prevent cockroaches from crawling out..."

Old Man Lu waved his hand, stood up and walked towards the cage where he kept cockroaches, while giving instructions to the two of them.

Ye Tian nodded repeatedly after hearing this.

I was also secretly alert in my heart.

He really didn't think about it so much before, because in his understanding, he had money Gu, and there were so many strong cockroaches that could control ordinary cockroaches.

I never thought about cockroaches escaping.

But now, whether it is to expand the scale in the future or to hide from others, we must follow the normal process.

Otherwise, once someone knows that they are raising cockroaches here, there will definitely be a lot of trouble.

Not to mention that if we want to cooperate with the administration to dispose of garbage, the first thing we will examine will definitely be safety hazards.Therefore, the face project must be done well.

Thinking of this, Ye Tian quickly pulled Zhang Liang towards the breeding farm.

After some observation, I found that there are quite a lot of things to deal with.

Every house must at least raise a ceiling and then paint it over with cement so that no gaps are left.

At the entrance and exit of the door, several layers of curtains must be made of fine mesh.

This amount of work alone costs a lot of money per house.

Not to mention, like in the cockroach breeding videos they saw, a lot of shelves had to be made, asbestos tiles were placed, food troughs were placed under the asbestos tiles, and telescopic troughs for cleaning cockroach feces were needed.

The two brothers totaled it up.

The cost of all these houses is at least several hundred thousand and upwards.

"Brother Tian, ​​I originally thought raising cockroaches would be simple and trouble-free, but I didn't expect it to be so complicated."

Zhang Liang cried and laughed.

Ye Tian nodded and said helplessly: "There is no way. If you want to become bigger, these are necessary, and we must make it so that no one can find faults."

"Well, that's what I think too. As for money, I can ask my family to prepay a semester's pocket money, which is about [-] yuan. I'll think of other ways. Let's get two or three rooms out first, and then I’m making plans for the future.”

"No, Ryoko, you've helped me enough. As for money, I'll figure it out."

"You think of a way? Brother Tian, ​​did I hear it correctly? This is the sun rising in the west."

Zhang Liang touched Ye Tian's forehead with a surprised look on his face and said in surprise.

"Seriously, I have used Ju Chong Xiang to do housekeeping these two days, which has opened up the situation a bit. I believe there will be no less work in the future, so I will be responsible for the money, so you don't have to worry too much."

"Hey, that's good. My brother Tian has finally made it through. I'm glad to say it. But you'd better keep the money for yourself. Starting a business is starting a business, but we can't ignore our grandma and our sister."

"I'm really not joking with you. If you don't believe me, you'll know when you follow me to my company later."

Ye Tian shook his head and smiled.
