Chapter 1,200, Baby Fish
The so-called hot food is just a simple stew of rice and a little quick-food dish. The soup made with dehydrated vegetables is a little extravagant, two corn cobs simmered in the fire. The luxury is not the food itself, but the hay that makes the fire is hard to find. The two of them climbed half a mountain before barely searching for a little back.
Everything was ready, and the two sat on the moisture-proof mat and ate and chatted.
"Sir, I have a relative who wants to raise giant salamanders. He said that giant salamanders have sold for 2,000 pounds, and one can make tens of thousands of yuan."
"Your relative has some wealth?" Nan Yi said, handing Miao Xiaolan half of the pickled goose eggs in his hand, and then took the cut sausage from the other party.
"He didn't have much money. He asked me to borrow money, saying that it would cost a lot of money to raise giant salamanders."
"So, has your relatives done breeding before?"
"No, he only opened a brick and tile factory. After a few years of prosperity, the brick kiln collapsed and crushed three people to death, and he lost all the money he earned."
Nan Yi hesitated for a moment and said, "Then you are in a little trouble. The investment in raising giant salamanders is a bit large. A fish fry is nearly 1,000 yuan. There are some requirements for breeding. You need to find a dark place with live water. The water quality must be good enough. If you have a little worse water quality, you need to use a lot of medicine.
Let’s put it this way, it takes at least three years to raise a giant salamander to weigh three or four pounds suitable for slaughter. Adding up all the various things, and then sharing the cost of building a breeding base will cost about 2,000 yuan. The cost of raising a fish can be reduced a little, but that will make the investment even greater.
At the current price on the market, if you can support it well, you will definitely make money, and it will be a big profit. It will not be too difficult to make millions a year on average, but..."
"?"
Miao Xiaolan is waiting for Nan Yi's turn.
"I actually know a lot about giant salamanders. They not only know the breeding and breeding technology, but also the changes in the market. Kenying Group started raising this thing since 1985. At that time, the market had sold 300 yuan per catty. Because there were no people raising it, they all depended on people to catch it on the mountain.
By 1988, because it was caught too hard, the giant salamander almost exterminated. The country listed it as a second-level protected animal. The more it protected, the more precious it became. By the end of the year, the price of giant salamander soared to thousands.
From that year to 1995, Kenxian Group controlled the shipment volume and shipping channels of giant salamanders, and only sold limited giant salamanders to a few fixed buyers. When the buyer got the goods, he secretly took them to the black market and sold them as wild. The shipment volume was well controlled. Not only did he sell them at the highest price for 3,000 yuan per catty, but he didn't have to worry about selling them. If the hotel wanted to order the goods, he had to pay a deposit in advance, and he had to rely on his relationship, otherwise he would not sell them to him."
Nan Yi ate something and continued: "After 1995, the market was not very good. In 1991 and 1992, some people had already targeted giant salamanders. The giant salamanders they raised happened to be slaughtered in 1996. It was also from that year that they did not pay much attention to breeding and wildness. The Reclamation Group no longer controlled the channels, but only controlled the number of slaughtered each year.
Although giant salamander farming brings over 10 million yuan in net profit to the Farming Group every year, this project is not valued within the group and has always been in a state of being cut off at any time. In July last year, this project decided to cut off the last batch of stored fish in the second half of 2009 after being slaughtered, and only the fry project is retained.
Moreover, I want to tell you that the seedling cultivation project will be sold at any time. As long as a buyer is willing to pay a high price, the technology will be sold together with the seedling cultivation base."
"Will the price of giant salamander fall at any time?"
"Yes." Nan Yi nodded affirmatively, "The fry of giant salamander before was expensive because of the high cost of seedling cultivation. Now the technology has been broken through, and the cost has been suppressed to an extremely low, but it is just a secret to the outside world. Moreover, the new generation of fry has been improved, and the breeding environment is not as high as before, and it is easy to feed, and the breeding cost is invisibly reduced.
Last month, the Agricultural Channel's "Fai Caijing" column broadcasted an episode of the first episode. Who raises giant salamanders? It seems that he was a real estate boss in Guizhou Province. He raised turtles at the earliest. In 1996 and 1997, turtles could be sold for two or three hundred pounds. He drove it to a good time and earned more than 10 million in three years.
Now such a big boss is here to raise giant salamanders again. The show also said that a Japanese company contacted him many times two years ago to buy his giant salamanders, and promised to sell 300,000 kilograms a year."
Nan Yi knocked on the rice spoon in his hand and said indignantly: "It's simply nonsense. If Japan could sell 300 tons a year, the Kenying Group would have killed it long ago, and it would be his turn to do such a good thing.
It’s just a seller who sold seedlings. I don’t know how much it cost to go on the column. I just made an advertisement. If such people emerge, they will raise two more crops at most. By 2013, the price of giant salamanders should plummet.
This will be a pitfall. The first batch will be able to enjoy the sweetness. When the second batch, your heart will definitely become crazy. You will spend money to expand your scale. Thinking of making a lot of money, it just so happens that if you have such an idea, there will definitely be no only one or two. At that time, a large number of giant salamanders will be launched."
Nan Yi made an explosive move, "This is why I said you are in trouble. If you don't borrow it, you will be unkind, and your relatives may become rich. If you borrow it, your relatives may lose all their money and may not be able to return the money to you."
"Sir, will the price of giant salamander collapse?"
"Yes, the giant salamander could reach a high price not because of how high its value is, but because some people hope it is worth it. Those who treat guests need a high-priced and rare food to entertain the invited ones. The price of this thing is paid by the buyer.
When the number of breeding becomes larger and the mystery is removed, the special value it deliberately creates no longer exists." Nan Yi asked with a smile, "You have also eaten giant salamander. What do you think it tastes?"
Miao Xiaolan recalled and said, "It feels like the taste of catfish, nothing special."
"Haha, that's it. The giant salamander is not delicious, and the medicinal value is just that. It can only be regarded as a very ordinary Chinese medicine. With artificial breeding of various medicines, the giant salamander has become a jar of medicine. Not to mention the medicinal value, after taking the medicine, it is a pile of toxins. If you take it frequently, it is luck."
"I want to think carefully about whether to borrow the money or not." Miao Xiaolan frowned.
"Um."
Nan Yiying said, turning his attention to eating.
They slept all night in a sleeping bag. The next afternoon, the two arrived at the hill near Yidian Village. Looking down, they saw that they were covered with pieces of soil gray, and the green was like the beef in a famous chain brand beef ramen. Not only were they small and thin, but the trees probably couldn't be as single as per person. They grew wilted and did not have the lushness of early summer at all.
The layout of the village is in line with the typical characteristics of the arid mountainous areas in the north. Farmers live with the fields and houses are relatively scattered. The construction of the village has not been planned in an overall manner, so there is no way to explain it. Most of the houses are made of local elm, poplar, pine and other wood and adobe. The houses are short and narrow, and most of them are earthen houses with no tiles on the roof.
Among them, the better house is built with a wall of more than 100 meters in Sichuan. The corner of the house is built on one side of the courtyard gate. Other houses are taller. Nanyi has read information before. This kind of house is called a high house. Generally, windows are opened on three sides and two windows are opened on both sides of the courtyard. It is used to listen to the movements inside and outside, observe people, and guard against thieves. It is the ears and eyes of the courtyard.
The houses in the courtyard adopt single-eaves, hanging rafters or rolling rafters. Generally, families use three bons and two hangers. People with a wealthy life use a flat steep frame to support three purlins, which has a relatively reliable structure.
I didn’t see any caves for people to live in, but I only saw a few small kilns that were closed to livestock, poultry or firewood on the cliff…
After watching for a while, Nanyi saw the scene in the village. He did not rush to enter the village. He ate something on the mountain and then rushed to the front and back of the village.
I went downstairs to take a look at the potato that was not angry, found the legendary spring, tasted the bitter water that was brought up, went to the hills with graves to look at the tombstones, and roughly judged the health of the villagers through the years of birth and death revealed on it.
When the sky was about to darken, Nan Yi climbed up again, connected Pei Suyi, and told the other party about the trend of the mountains and rivers in his eyes, hoping that the other party could give him an answer that there was a large tomb.
Pei Suyi's answer was that he was poor and bad, and his feng shui was extremely poor.
After cutting off the idea of using a large tomb to hype Yijiu into a scenic spot, Nanyi asked about the trend of the water dragon again.
Pei Suyi didn't dare to make arbitrarily before seeing her, but she just gave a rough guess.
There is probably enough. Nanyi has already outlined a general framework for how to implement his small village economy in Yidian - if you want to live, you must first have water. If you want to plant trees and fast-growing shrubs on the hills that are within your sight, you must consolidate the soil and store water. If you want to be rich, you must first build roads and build a 37-kilometer-long two-lane cement road.
Standing on the hill, Nan Yi was silently calculating, and the abacus in his mind was calculating various accounts.
After a long time, I had a rough account in my heart. Nan Yi took Miao Xiaolan down the mountain and looked straight to the best courtyard in the village.
Unexpectedly, the village secretary did not live in this courtyard. After the landlord's guidance, Nanyi met Ma Hailong, a village official from Yidian in front of the village's third best courtyard. He was about 35 or 6 years old and had obvious characteristics of a water-deficient area - his skin was dark with dirt accumulated, his clothes were dark, his clothes were covered with darkness, and his legs had stains and dust.
He quickly came to a good luck. After meeting a conclusion that he was probably capable of doing practical things, Nan Yi officially introduced himself to the other party, "Hello, Secretary Ma, I am Nan Yi from Beijing University."
"Professor Nan, hello, I have been looking forward to you coming here for a long time. Please invite me in the house."
Ma Hailong took Nanyi into the house diligently, pushed and pulled the kang, asked the wife to bring the dried fruits for the guests, and sent them to boil water. He sat across the kang table, staring at Nanyi with his eyes burning, as if he was staring at a golden ingot.
In Ma Hailong's eyes, Nan Yi is a gold ingot. He had already received a notice that a professor from Peking University was coming. He was not going to bring a mouth to eat, but to bring a lot of money to help the poor and to treat people well. When they were happy, the money would be left in a shop.
