I was the best old lady in ancient times

Chapter 456 Worth Thousands of Gold

Hearing the old lady's words, Liu Hu was moved and said to Ning Pengpeng.

"Don't worry, old lady, Liu Hu will definitely not let them do that ungrateful thing.

If they dare to be sentenced to the Ning family, they must look good. "

After hearing this, Ning Pengpeng just smiled and didn't say anything.

If people really want to be ungrateful, no matter how good they are, they will forget.

However, there is no need to say more to Liu Hu about these words.

When Liu Hu went to inform the new fishermen that the owner was willing to pay for stones to build stone houses for them, he was immediately grateful.

Regarding the post-work wages, half of the wages were withheld to pay back the account. The new fishermen did not have any objections or emotions.

After all, these days, it's not all about where they live.

After finishing work every day, you can go to the cafeteria and have a full stomach.

How can you not be happy on such a fairy-like day?

What's more, the owner is still willing to give them a place to live, what virtue and ability are they!

Those who made this group of people excited and happy burst into tears.

An old man who was nearly 50 years old wiped the tears from his eyes, and only said that his house was the reincarnation of Guanyin Bodhisattva who saved the suffering.

Ning Pengpeng couldn't help but roll his eyes at all kinds of compliments and flattering words, but he forcibly endured it.

"Everyone, as long as you do your best, the Ning family will definitely not treat you badly."

It is better to do well than to say more.

Ning Pengpeng only believed in what the other party did, not what the other party said.

Hearing what the boss said, everyone nodded repeatedly, promising that they would be obedient and do things well.

Then, Ning Pengpeng followed Liu Hu to the area where the pearls were grown, and she found that the area was much bigger.

Liu Hu pointed to the enlarged part, and then said.

"Old lady, those were added later."

Seeing this, Ning Pengpeng nodded in satisfaction.

This pearl cultivation requires a lot of seed shells. If you only rely on people to fish in the sea, one is too risky, and the other is too many uncertain factors.

Unexpectedly, Liu Hu could think of cultivating shells by himself. I am afraid that the ancients did not know how shells reproduce?
Shells can be regarded as a very magical species in nature. They do not reproduce autonomously, but spray X and Y from their bodies like a spray.

At least a few million can be ejected at a time, and then let them meet and combine in the sea.

As long as one of these millions of X and Y can be combined, it can ensure that the shell species will not become extinct.

Although Liu Hu didn't know this, he thought of a way to put the newly collected shells in the seawater pool newly built by the fishermen on the shore.

In the beginning, the main reason for building this seawater pool was to catch too many seafoods. I was afraid that the big guys would not be able to deal with them in time, which would cause these seafoods to die, so they would not be fresh!

Thinking of keeping them in captivity in this way, the seafood will not die easily.

The same is true for newly collected shells, which are placed in a seawater pool separately.

Originally, Liu Hu thought that after the first batch of shells came out with pearls, he would pick out the big ones and implant them with pearls from the newly collected shells, and then put them back into the sea for breeding.

However, because compared with shells, the daily volume of seafood is much larger.

Therefore, for a while, Liu Hu's energy was focused on seafood.

It wasn't until Liu Hu remembered that the collected shells had not been implanted with shell beads and were put into the sea for breeding.

There are actually many small shells in these seawater pools where the collected shells are kept.

Looking at these small shells, Liu Hu's mind turned quickly.

He thinks that by fishing and harvesting shells, since shells can reproduce by themselves, it is better to cultivate these shells by themselves!
Ning Pengpeng affirmed Liu Hu's idea.

However, the process of growing small shells to be able to transplant shell beads is very complicated.

In particular, small shells cannot be raised in seawater ponds, but need to be raised in the sea.

Moreover, before the small shells grow up, they have to be salvaged frequently to see if there is something attached to these small shells.

If so, go there in time.

The reason why Ning Pengpeng knows these things is of course thanks to the almighty Baimou and Mouyin, and that Moulili who likes to share!
In these sharing platforms, you can learn a lot of strange knowledge.

In this regard, Ning Pengpeng can only say, thank you, when I was free, I liked to watch with my mobile phone.

Under the current conditions, Ning Pengpeng feels that although the raising of these small shells cannot be as successful as in modern times, the possibility of surviving is 100%.

But even if the survival rate of small shells is only 50.00%, it is enough for ancient pearls that have not been cultured artificially!

Thinking that if the scale of the pearl farm is to be expanded in the future, in fact, these new fishermen who have defected now may still not have enough manpower.

After hearing what the old lady said, Liu Hu's eyes lit up immediately.

Listening to Jun's words is better than reading ten years of books. It turns out that this shell can be raised like this?

No wonder, many of the small shells left in the seawater pool died a lot.

It seems that the old lady knows a lot.

If you want to grow shells by yourself, you have to weave that kind of thin and dense net, put the small shells in it, and raise them in the sea.

When the small shells grow to a certain extent, they are divided into fishing nets with larger holes.

In addition, the dead shell shells on the seaside are collected by the children in Yujiawan and sold to the Ning family at a price of one penny per catty.

Ning Pengpeng implanted the first batch of shells before, which were shell beads ground from the shell shell.

Of course, in addition to the collected shells, there is also a batch of shells that Ning Pengpeng asked Liu Hu to fish out from the farm this time.

After cutting, the pearls squeezed out are all round and lovely, unlike the pearls in the shells that were fished out of the sea before, they have different shapes. Among thousands of pearls, it is difficult to find such a round pearl.

For this batch of pearl oysters, Ning Pengpeng asked people to dig out the pearls, and then dug out the scallops in the shells, and put them aside.

The rest is the outer shell of the shell, which is also cleaned and put aside.

After all the other things were chopped up, they were thrown to the sea ducks to eat.

The scallops can be dried and sold as seafood.

Shell shells can be ground into round shells as shell beads, which are later implanted in shells.

As for these batches of pearls, a box was full, Liu Hu touched them with trembling hands, and said excitedly.

"Old lady, these pearls are probably worth thousands of gold!"

Ning Pengpeng picked up a pearl, looked up and observed it carefully, then nodded in satisfaction.

This quality is indeed no worse than those fished by divers from the bottom of the sea.

It should be more than enough to be used as a tribute!

"Send this box of pearls to Master Cui's house!"
