I don’t know why there are too many crayfish in the reservoir and too little feed, or because these aquatic plants are particularly suitable for the crayfish’s appetite...
Crayfish can be seen everywhere on the leaves of aquatic plants floating in the reservoir. When these crayfish have nothing to do, they cling to the aquatic plants and gnaw on them.
After throwing five earth cages down, Ye Mo and the others came to the shade of the tree. As soon as they sat down and lit their cigarettes, a fishery truck drove over.
"Hahaha...Boss Ye, long time no see." Zhang Wenyuan jumped out of the passenger seat of the car and shouted with a smile.
Ye Mo came over, handed over the cigarette, and said: "I just got off the ground cage, pick it up in ten minutes and take a look."
"Yeah." Zhang Wenyuan nodded: "I'll go over and check the quality of the crayfish."
Ye Mo accompanied Zhang Wenyuan to the reservoir.
This year, there are more aquatic plants in the reservoir. But you can see that many aquatic plants have only half of their leaves, or even bare main vines...
Ye Mo picked up the net on the ground and caught a few crayfish.
These crayfish are not very big.
Zhang Wenyuan grabbed the crayfish and pinched its belly. The crayfish tail meat was very plump and its body was very clean...
This is a large reservoir of several dozen acres. At first glance, there are many aquatic plants growing there, especially in the upper reaches. There are aquatic plants in the middle of the reservoir.
Ye Mo saw Zhang Wenyuan holding a cigarette in his mouth without lighting it... so he took out a lighter, lit it for him, and said, "How about these crayfish?"
"It's just a little small, but otherwise, it's pretty good." Zhang Wenyuan nodded and said, "Let's go look elsewhere."
Ye Mo accompanied Zhang Wenyuan to another place, walking around the reservoir...
Xiaomian's dad and the others are setting up a cage on the ground.
There is no requirement for today’s lobster, it costs 4-6...it looks like it’s about the same size.
"The aquatic plants here are really good." Zhang Wenyuan also saw the crayfish holding the aquatic plants and munching on them, and said with a smile: "I cover all the crayfish in this reservoir. The price is the same as the fresh shrimp of the same size.
, I’ll give you three yuan per catty.” In summer, the water quality in the reservoir becomes a little turbid, but it still gives people a clean feeling.
Ye Mo didn't respond to Zhang Wenyuan immediately. He didn't know the price of fresh shrimps in the market either.
Zhang Wenyuan saw that Ye Mo did not agree, and said: "For medium greens, I will add 3 yuan per catty for you. For large greens, I will add 7 yuan per catty... If it is 1 tael of greens, I will add 13 yuan per catty for you."
This price is definitely not low. If you find another aquatic products supplier, it will be difficult for you to get a price that exceeds mine."
"What's the current price of fresh shrimp?"
"Small greens are about ten yuan, medium greens are fifteen or sixteen yuan, big greens are about 23 yuan, and one liang of green... is more expensive, about 40 yuan." Zhang Wenyuan said with a smile: "One liang of green is not easy to raise.
It’s hard to see it on the market.”
Ye Mo said: "The 50-acre reservoir outside my house also breeds crayfish. The number of crayfish there is much less than here. Let me see if I can raise 1 liang of crayfish. If you want to take it all in, you have to give me 2 liang of crayfish."
The crayfish from each reservoir are packed together.”
"Hahaha... OK, no problem." Zhang Wenyuan said with a smile. Aquatic products dealers at his level would not have too many crayfish of this grade. Even if there are a few more large reservoirs like this, he can cover them.
The breeding cycle of one liang of green is usually four to five months. It is particularly difficult to raise one liang of green in summer.
When the temperature is high, crayfish are particularly easy to turn red. As long as they turn red, they will not turn into green shrimps...
Even if you can't raise 1 tael of green shrimp, it's not bad to raise 1 tael of red shrimp.
"Today's batch of crayfish is considered to be 19 yuan." Zhang Wenyuan said: "Starting from tomorrow, I will come here at eight o'clock every morning to load the truck... The amount required every day is about one thousand kilograms."
It’s a few dollars more expensive per catty, which means it’s quite a bit of money in terms of the total amount.
These crayfish are mainly for export, sold to places like Lijiang and Dali, and sold at high prices. Zhang Wenyuan gave a price higher than the market not only because the crayfish here are of good quality, but also because he needs Ye Mo to cooperate with him.
sales.
The crayfish here are basically ready for the market. The best way is to sell them all at once and start the second round of breeding...
However, the crayfish here are of good quality and can be sold separately. However, if sold individually, the daily sales volume is effective. Selling a few every day is actually not good for Ye Mo, so he will take the initiative to add money to Ye Mo.
Ye Mo nodded.
Loading about a thousand kilograms every day...
Here in the large reservoir, there are still crayfish laying eggs. And there are a lot of crayfish, one thousand kilograms a day, which is 30,000 kilograms a month.
The large reservoir is more than 70 acres, and the deepest part is seven to eight meters deep. In the rest of the place, the water depth is 2 to 5 meters...Aquatic plants have spread all over the entire reservoir.
However, the densest area of crayfish is around the reservoir.
How many crayfish are there in the reservoir? It's hard to calculate. In the big reservoir, there are seven or eight bags of feed a day, which is not enough for these crayfish.
After walking around the reservoir for a long time, Zhang Wenyuan took out his mobile phone and squatted by the reservoir, taking several photos... and a close-up video of crayfish eating water plants.
These videos should be sent to customers so that these crayfish can be sold at a good price.
Back at the warehouse, the crayfish have been loaded. This time, they were loaded directly into the special crayfish transport truck, with some wet water peanuts and ice cubes placed in it...
"How many pounds?" Zhang Wenyuan asked.
"357 pounds." the driver said.
Zhang Wenyuan calculated it and found that it was 19 yuan per catty... a total of 6,783 yuan. He took out his mobile phone and transferred it directly to Ye Mo.
"I'll come back tomorrow morning to load the goods. I'll call you in the evening to tell you how many kilograms are needed."
"OK."
Send Zhang Wenyuan and others away.
Lin Xiaomian said: "357 pounds, shouldn't it be 5,712 yuan?"
"Boss Zhang saw these crayfish and temporarily added money." Ye Mo said with a smile.
"Additional money temporarily..." Lin Shan was a little surprised and said with a smile: "This boss can do business."
"He said the quality of the crayfish here is good." Ye Mo shrugged.
Lin Shan made a 'tsk' sound. It might be due to Feng Shui, whatever Ye Mo does here is good.
On a fish transport truck.
The driver said: "The crayfish here should be considered top quality, right?"
"Yes." Lin Shan nodded: "Hurry up and deliver the goods to the late night snack shop, let's go to Dali."
First go over and show the goods to the customer so that we can negotiate the price.
He paid extra for these crayfish, so they definitely cannot be calculated at the price of ordinary blue shrimps. Otherwise, it would be easy to lose money...
…
5 cages.
It took only twenty minutes after the ground cage was put down to collect more than 300 kilograms of crayfish. This shows... how high the density of crayfish is in the reservoir.
Return home.
Xiaomian's parents washed their hands and feet...
Come over and take a look at the car Lin Xiaomian bought.
"How much does your car cost?" Lin Shan asked.
"More than fifty thousand." Lin Xiaomian said with a guilty conscience as she did not dare to tell the real price.
"More than 50,000 yuan, it's quite beautiful." Xiaomian's mother looked at Lin Xiaomian and said, "I can't wait any longer. I'll go to the driving school to get my driver's license and buy one for me."
~(╯﹏╰)
Lin Xiaomian's mouth dropped: "Okay."
"Honestly, how much is it?" Xiaomian's mother immediately asked with a fierce face.
"More than 80,000." Lin Xiaomian had no choice but to answer honestly.
More than 80,000, how much more... I didn’t say.
One or two thousand more is a lot, and eight or nine thousand more is also a lot.
"I bought everything, so don't let her talk." Lin Shan got into the driver's seat and said, "It's not like we're spending our money...the money they earn can be spent as they please."
Xiao Mian's mother glared at her fiercely.
But don’t mention it, the little car is really beautiful. It’s much better looking than the Wuling Mini that Zhang Xia and Wang Yue bought.
