"Dad, you didn't believe me before, why are you more anxious than me now?"
Jiang Che teased with a smile.
"Stop talking nonsense. Your village chief is here. Let's make a decision quickly."
Jiang Yunshan said unhappily. After eating dragon fish, hot spring hairy crabs and river shrimps a few times, he became a little addicted to them.
If it can be artificially bred, there will be absolutely no problem in making money.
"Grandpa Village Chief, I do plan to raise some fish and shrimp. I see the village pond has been abandoned for quite some time. I guess no one is contracting it, right?"
Jiang Che nodded and asked immediately.
"It was contracted by your uncle Jinshui before, but the cost of breeding was too high so he gave up."
"There's no one in the fish pond right now. Xiao Che, if you want it, I'll give it to you."
"But what kind of fish are you planning to raise? Ordinary fish might not be able to fetch a good price!"
"Almost every village in Qingjiang Town raises fish, so the price can't go up at all."
The old village chief is not very optimistic about the fish farming business, as Qingjiang Town is located in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River.
There are dense water networks, so almost every village in Qingjiang Town has fish ponds.
In addition to fish ponds, there is also Qingjiang River, which flows into the Yangtze River and is rich in fisheries.
The aquatic products in Qingjiang Town, Yongning County are basically saturated. It is better to grow more vegetables and make money than to raise fish.
"Don't worry, Grandpa Village Chief. The fish, shrimp and crabs I raise are definitely not ordinary species."
"I guarantee it will fetch a good price. Since there's no dispute over the pond, I'll take the lease for ten years."
Jiang Che immediately decided that hot spring dragon fish, crabs and river shrimps would definitely become another major feature of Huaxi Village in the future.
"Okay, since you have confidence, Xiao Che, that's fine."
"I'll get the contract to you later. Go pump out the water from the pond while you have some free time at noon."
"That old pond has been abandoned for several years, and the water has become smelly. We have to dry it out in the sun."
"I'm going to Hei Pi's place to see how the food preparation is going. Xiao Che, don't forget to invite the guests over for lunch, okay?"
After the old village chief finished speaking, he stood up and prepared to leave.
"I understand, Grandpa Village Chief. I've already told the experts and reporters."
"By the way, Grandpa Village Chief, you might know the host coming from Kyoto this time."
Jiang Che smiled and said that as the head of the village, it was a compulsory course for the old village chief to read the Kyoto news every day.
"I know him. Who is he?"
The old village chief stopped and asked with interest.
"You'll find out at lunchtime. I guarantee you'll be surprised."
Jiang Che smiled and didn't tell the old village chief.
"You kid, you just know how to keep people in suspense."
The old village chief nodded at Jiang Che, feeling both amused and helpless, then walked away with his hands behind his back.
"Alright Xiao Che, let's go to the dry pond too."
"That pond has been abandoned for so long, I guess there's a lot of good stuff in the silt."
"I haven't eaten wild eels and loaches in a long time. Let's go and pump out the pond."
As soon as the old village chief left, Jiang Zhiguang immediately became excited.
After returning for one day, I witnessed with my own eyes that tens of thousands of dollars had come into the family account.
This was something he had never dared to think about when he was working before. Now that his family has earned so much money, he has become a lot more cheerful.
I no longer have to worry about not being able to get married due to lack of money. Now I am full of hope for the future.
"Brother Yunshan, you guys go ahead. I'll go home and get the water pump."
After Jiang Dajun and Jiang Hongda finished speaking, they ran out of the yard.
Jiang Yunshan and Jiang Yunhai had already prepared the water pump. Jiang Che stood in the yard and looked at it with some surprise.
It seems like something is missing in the yard today. By the way, where did Tang Tian, Lingzhi, Han Xiao and the other three go?
Usually the three of them play in the yard, but they are not here today.
"Dad, where are Lingzhi, Tang Tian and the others?"
Jiang Che asked curiously. The three of them were still there before they went to the training base.
"Oh, the three of them are at Lingzhi's house."
"Xiaotian's father gave her a big wooden box, and then the three little girls hid in the room, tinkering with something."
Jiang Yunshan shook his head and said.
"Really? I'll go check it out."
Jiang Che left the yard and quickly ran to his second uncle's house. He came to Lingzhi's room and knocked on the door.
Soon the door opened a crack and Lingzhi's head popped out from the crack.
"Brother, you're back, and you're done with your work."
Lingzhi asked happily when she saw Jiang Che, but she had no intention of opening the door to let him in.
"Not yet. What are you three doing in there, being so secretive?"
Jiang Che wanted to look inside through the crack in the door, but he only heard the sound of a file rubbing against metal coming from inside the room.
"Nothing, brother, what's the matter with you coming here?"
Lingzhi quickly came out and closed the door, blocking Jiang Che's sight.
"You little brat, still trying to be mysterious."
"Is your sister Tang making jewelry in there?"
Jiang Che guessed that it must be Tang Tian's father who brought her toolbox. He didn't expect Tang Tian to be so impatient to start making jewelry.
"Brother, it's good that you know. Sister Tang hasn't done it for a long time and her hands are a bit rusty."
"I'm embarrassed to show it to everyone. I said I'll show it to you when it's done."
Lingzhi stuck out her tongue and said awkwardly.
"Okay, tell your sister Tang to be careful and not get hurt."
"By the way, I'm going to the dry pond soon. Do you want to go and see it?"
Jiang Che was about to leave when he turned around and asked again.
"What dry pond? The big abandoned pond in the village?"
"Yes, the old pond might have a lot of good things. Are you sure you don't want to go and take a look?"
