Carry a fountain with you

Chapter 24 The Fisherman
Liujiagou showed his face completely this time, and even appeared on the city TV station because of the matter of renting land. I don't know how those reporters knew about it, so they drove to Liujiagou for an interview.Of course, Liu Guangju is indispensable for this kind of showing. He is wearing a brand new shirt, with a traitorous hair comb, standing under the camera with a somewhat excited expression and reciting his lines.

The photographer also dutifully took pictures of the beauty of the mountains, rivers and waters here, and even Liu Junhao's Huotou and the old turtle were on the TV, which was a sight to behold.

As soon as the news that "people in the city rent out land to farm in the countryside on weekends and become farmers" was broadcast, countless people called the column team to ask the specific location of Liujiagou.

The column team had constant phone calls all night, obviously there were not a few people who were interested, so more people came to Liujiagou to play.

The benefits of being on TV in Liujiagou are far more than that. The county finally decided to build a road in Daqingshan. Once the road is completed, Daqingshan will bid farewell to the era of isolation from the world.

In fact, the county had plans for the Daqingshan section of the road a long time ago, but the investment was not small and the difficulty was high. The county asked Qingshan Town to raise part of the funds by itself, but the town's finances had no spare money at all. Wages are often in arrears.Therefore, this matter has been parked on paper and there is no way to implement it.

This time, it happened to coincide with the launch of the "Village-to-Village Highway" project, coupled with the report on Liujiagou in the market, the first thing the county discussed was the Daqingshan section of the road, and it was decided that the county would fund the repair and develop Daqingshan by the way. tourism resources.

Of course, none of this will affect Liu Junhao. His life is getting more and more leisurely. Even many city people who come here to travel envy his life of "nongfu mountain spring with a bit of land".

Now the weather is getting hotter and hotter. After lunch, Liu Junhao gracefully left the cleaning of the dishes to Professor Zhao. He lifted the teapot under the poplar tree, poured half a bowl of herbal tea, and lay down on the chair to take it. I read a copy of "Reader" and looked at it. After reading it for a while, I was really bored, so I watched the ants move cicadas.

Those cicadas that shed their shells in the morning are lucky, but once they are still shelling after six or seven o'clock, they will be in danger. When encountering their natural enemies, ants, there is only one dead end.Because Cicada, who has not yet taken off its shell, is bound by the shell, unable to move at all, and can only watch helplessly as the black ants engulf him.

"You're getting lazy. Let's see if there is any young man in this area like you who just sits in the courtyard all day long as the second uncle. He doesn't even want to wash the dishes. Just wipe his mouth after eating and he'll be fine?" Professor Zhao said briskly. After cleaning the pots and bowls, seeing his lazy appearance under the tree, he reprimanded him.

After getting along with each other these days, he basically regards Liu Junhao as his junior, so his words are getting closer and closer.

"Hey, who told you to keep losing two games in a row, the loser is the rule you always set, and I have to abide by it, right? Don't you always say that people who break the rules are shameful?" Liu Junhao laughed Laughing, handed him the chair, and then poured another bowl of herbal tea.

"You, you..." Professor Zhao shook his head helplessly, "It's really a small fortune. You have the technology to raise eels. If you open an aquaculture farm, you will already make a fortune, and sales are not a problem. The son of the Wang family These days I have been chasing after you to buy rice field eels, but with your temper..."

These days, Wang Shengli also runs to Liujiagou every once in a while, and every time he advises Liu Junhao to open a breeding farm, and even signs an agreement with him to sell the farm.

But every time he was rejected by Liu Junhao, he has adapted to this kind of leisurely life.

"Uncle Zhao, I don't like hearing your words anymore. How about telling you a story? A man met a fisherman basking in the sun on the beach, and he asked, 'Why don't you go fishing when the weather is so good today? Fish?', the fisherman replied, "I have already caught once today", and the man said strangely, "Why don't you catch more times? If I were a fisherman, I would catch more times every day. After earning money, I would put the boat Change to a big ship, and then start a company, wait until the age of four or 50 to have a certain amount of capital, then you can bask on the beach'

The fisherman asked back, "I can also bask in the sun on the beach now, isn't it the same as me that you have spent so much trouble?" '"

"Where did you hear this story?" Professor Zhao asked a little depressed.

"It's on "Reader", I just read it." Liu Junhao clapped the book in his hand.

"You can sell what you learn now..." Professor Zhao was completely speechless.

In fact, he didn't know that the reason why Liu Junhao's ambitions dissipated so quickly, besides being a lazy person himself, was that the lives of the villagers had obviously changed, and the smiles on people's faces were much more than before. Knowing that life has a bright future, I work more vigorously.

And this kind of change is caused by him, and everyone has a sense of accomplishment.

In fact, Liu Junhao has done some work these days. He has nearly doubled the size of the ditch where he raised eels, dug deep along the vegetable bed ravines opened by Professor Zhao, and then drawn water from the well for irrigation. It saves the trouble of watering the vegetable field, and the bugs in the vegetable field are eaten up by the eels.

At the beginning, Professor Zhao was skeptical about this model, because such shallow water and the sun's exposure would definitely kill the eels.

But animals are far smarter than people imagined. These eels dug their holes under the roots of trees early, and hid under the trees to enjoy the shade at noon. Looking around, they were all covered with eels.

Of course, in order to solve the problem of single species, Liu Junhao also stocked many common fish such as loach, lobster and crab in the water.

It's just that their reproduction is not as outrageous as rice field eels, and Liu Junhao didn't expect these things to make money. They are all self-produced and sold.

Speaking of the spring water in Shisuo, although it is still bubbling all the time, the area of ​​the spring water has not increased much, but the plants such as chicken head buds and lotus roots in it grow very well, especially those lotus flowers that are all blooming. The ones were bigger than the mouth of a bowl, and they smelled fragrant, and many of them had formed lotus pods.

Liu Junhao was wondering if he also planted some lotus roots in the ditch in front of the door, otherwise this thing would definitely cause suspicion if he suddenly took it out to eat. This stone lock is currently his biggest secret and reliance, and all his changes are caused by this stone lock belt. Come, it is of course best to keep this secret.

The two were talking first, when Xiaopi suddenly screamed in the backyard, as if he had discovered something.At first Liu Junhao didn't pay attention to it, but when he heard Xiaopi screaming anxiously, he dropped the book and rushed to the backyard, he was taken aback for a moment.

Good fellow, the water crock actually came to steal food in his own yard, no wonder Xiaopi is so loud.

Crake is a kind of water bird here, with a short beak, grayish brown upper body, thick black longitudinal stripes on the feather shaft, and wide brown spots on the wings.They can be found in the ditches of rice fields by the river and wherever there is water. They mainly feed on insects, small fish and shrimps. This kind of bird is clever and it is difficult to catch them.

But being difficult to catch doesn’t mean you can’t catch them. Crakes hibernate in caves by the river in winter, and at this time, their eyesight becomes very dull, and they twist and turn when they walk, and they can’t fly at all. .

Every winter, the group of brats in the village go to the river or the ditch covered with wormwood in groups to look for water rail holes.

There are many such caves near the water, some are hedgehog caves, some are snake caves, etc. It is impossible to distinguish from the appearance, but people have a way to poke a bamboo pole into the cave, as long as they hear the sound of flapping wings in the cave There must be a water rail. At this time, block the opening of the hole with your hand, and then shake the bamboo pole vigorously, and the water rail can be blasted out and caught.

But the water rails in summer are not easy to catch, even the nimble Xiaopi can’t do anything about it, this thing flies too fast, when seeing someone coming, the group of water rails flap their wings one by one and pick up the small fish and fly Leaving the yard made Liu Junhao extremely helpless, not knowing how they got into his yard.
