Ye Mo cooked the rice, cut a piece of bacon on the stove, washed it, and put it in the pot.
The bacon was delivered by Mistress Xiaomian a few days ago.
Madam Xiaomian’s family has 9 acres of mangoes and more than 3 acres of pomegranates. She wants to install a drip irrigation water tank, so she asked Ye Mo to come over and take a look.
Ye Mo has a lot of things going on right now, and they are not over yet.
It was getting late, so Ye Mo took a digital scale, copied the net, and headed to the big reservoir.
He went to the warehouse and moved two bags of feed to the car. When he came to the reservoir, Ye Mo first fished out two crayfish and weighed them. The green shell crayfish weighed 15 grams and 17 grams respectively...
This is the 3-money shrimp.
Generally, lobsters have specifications. Judging from the specifications on the market, they start from 3 yuan... Most of the medium-sized shrimps are the mainstream in the market, which is 456 yuan. When converted into grams, they are 20, 25, and 30 grams.
The price goes up a lot as 7 yuan goes up.
For most farmers, crayfish of about 25 grams can be sold, which is more than ten yuan per catty. These are red shrimps, and the price of green shrimps is more expensive.
The egg-bearing lobsters released on August 20th, crayfish hatched in early September. Now, the crayfish are less than two months old.
The crayfish in the reservoir mainly feed on extruded feed. Crayfish fed with extruded feed grow very fast.
If the seedlings are well planted, they will grow faster...
I heard from Xiaomian's father that if shrimp larvae with a body length of 5cm are released, some male shrimps can grow to more than 1 tael in just one month. This is fed with extruded pellet feed...
Ye Mo fed feed along the edge of the reservoir and fished out some lobsters to weigh from time to time.
The smallest crayfish is 13 grams...the largest crayfish is more than 20 grams.
There are a lot of crayfish in large reservoirs, and they can be seen everywhere on the leaves of aquatic plants and on the shore.
From half a bag of feed a day before, to now...two bags of feed a day.
"Are these crayfish eating all the feed, or are there fish coming over to eat it?" Ye Mo felt very distressed every time he came out to feed the feed.
Crayfish feed is expensive, 4,300 yuan per ton. I bought 6 tons before and there is not much left.
Ye Mo didn't know exactly how many crayfish there were in the reservoir. Anyway, they only dropped a hundred kilograms of egg-bearing shrimp in total...
With the current number, it can only be said that the survival rate of shrimp seedlings is extremely high.
After throwing in both bags of feed, Ye Mo returned home. Lin Xiaomian had just returned and was looking at the meat being cooked in the kitchen.
"Where have you gone?"
"Feed the lobsters." Ye Mo said: "Some of the lobsters in the reservoir have grown to 4 cents."
"Will it be sold soon?" Lin Xiaomian put the lid back on the pot and said.
"Sell it in the middle of next month." Ye Mo said, "How much money do you have left?"
Lin Xiaomian pouted: "More than 18,000 yuan. Do you really have no money left?"
"There are more than seven thousand."
Lin Xiaomian knew it should be feed...
The feed I bought before is probably almost finished.
"I will transfer the money to you later." Lin Xiaomian said.
"Yeah." Ye Mo held up Lin Xiaomian's face and kissed her.
Lin Xiaomian pushed Ye Mo away: "I just came back, I haven't showered yet, I'm covered in sweat."
"It smells good," Ye Mo said.
Lin Xiaomian picked up her phone and transferred 18,000 yuan to Ye Mo, leaving only a few hundred yuan and said: "You have to watch the crayfish in the reservoir closely to avoid any accidents. Otherwise, the capital chain will be broken."
"
"I know. I'm watching closely..."
"The meat in the pot is already cooked." Lin Xiaomian said, "I'll go upstairs and take a shower first."
"Um."
Ye Mo watched Lin Xiaomian go upstairs, called the owner of the feed store and asked him to send 5 tons of feed. He then went to the backyard and pulled out a bald plant.
Bao'er cabbage is called baby cabbage or green cabbage locally. This is a vegetable that grows very strangely...
The vegetables in the backyard are growing very well. One baby cabbage is enough for Ye Mo and Lin Xiaomian to eat, and there is still more to finish.
Wash the baby cabbage, cut into pieces and throw it into the pot.
The bacon in the pot is ready, take it out and put it on the cutting board to dry.
How long does it take for Lin Xiaomian to take a bath? When she comes down, the baby cabbage has been cooked and the bacon has been cut into thin slices.
Pork belly, alternate with fat.
Lin Xiaomian used to prefer eating vegetables and very little meat. But now that she works every day, she likes to eat some meat and oil.
"Are you a little tired?" Ye Mo asked.
"Yeah. But starting tomorrow, we will only work nine hours a day. We start work at eight in the morning... from two to seven in the afternoon. You can sleep in in the morning." Lin Xiaomian pouted and said.
Ye Ran and Ye Mo don't feel sorry for them. But they feel sorry for Lin Xiaomian...
Lin Xiaomiang had just graduated from college and had never worked before, which meant she had not been severely beaten by society. Driving an excavator for ten hours a day was very tiring, and it was not easy for her to persevere.
I remember when Ye Mo first started working, he worked eight hours a day and felt tired.
"I have planted all the algae spores. Tomorrow I will do drip irrigation for the eldest lady. After finishing it, I will go to work for you and you can rest for a few days." Ye Mo said.
"No. Aren't you going to plant watermelons, cantaloupes and cantaloupes? After you're done, you have to build a melon and fruit shelf... Ranran wants to go out and play, and I want to go too. After we finish the work, we can go out and play for a few days."
Lin Xiaomian looked at Ye Mo coquettishly.
"Okay. When we're done, we'll go..." Seeing Lin Xiaomian's coquettish appearance, Ye Mo felt that his heart was soft.
the next day.
Ye Mo got up early, made breakfast, called Lin Xiaomian down to eat, and then went out together.
Lin Xiaomian went to the excavator, and Ye Mo went to Mrs. Xiaomian's house.
They were doing drip irrigation yesterday, and they also bought a vertical rotomolded bucket with a capacity of 15 tons. It's the kind Ye Mo bought earlier...
This early in the morning, my aunt and uncle were already working on the mountain.
Ye Mo went over to look at the drip irrigation they had set up, and shouted: "Ma'am, eldest uncle."
"Why."
The eldest lady just asked Ye Mo to come over and help dig a piece of flat land on the mountain to place the bucket...
"Where are you going to put that bucket?" Ye Mo asked.
"Put it on the top of the orchard." The eldest uncle pointed out the location to Ye Mo, which was above the mango orchard.
The hillside here is very steep, and manual excavation requires a lot of effort. It seems that the excavator is not very easy to climb up.
Ye Mo looked around first, found the way for the excavator to go up, and then called Lin Xiaomian: "Xiaomian."
"What are you doing?" Lin Xiaomian had just arrived and was getting ready to work when she received a call from Ye Mo.
"At noon, we drove a micro-excavator down the mountain, and we have to dig a hillside here." Ye Mo said.
"OK."
After hanging up the phone, Ye Mo went over to help.
"Aren't you very busy now? It won't delay your affairs, right?" the eldest lady said.
"I have nothing to do here, I won't delay anything." Ye Mo said.
The eldest lady smiled.
Ye Mo saw them using small saws to cut water pipes and said, "I have a small electric saw over there. I'll get one when I go back."
"good."
Ye Mo got out of the car and took the small electric saw over on his bicycle. The small one-handed electric saw can be used for pruning (big branches) in the orchard, sawing bamboo, etc... Lithium-ion battery has strong power and long battery life. In the orchard
When working, the choice of tools is very important. It takes a while to cut a water pipe with a small manual saw. With a small electric saw, the water pipe can be cut in one go.
They have a steep slope here, so there is no need to bury the water pipes underground. They can just leave them on the ground in the open air. It is very easy to get them done.
Burying water pipes underground can extend the service life of the water pipes. But the most important thing is to facilitate the opening of the orchard...
As for the hillside orchard here, cars cannot enter it, so there is no need to bury the water pipes.
