Lin Anshu's family's paddy fields are something that she and her family pay close attention to every day.
Even the villagers would occasionally go over to take a look.
At first, everyone thought that Lin Anshu was really mischievous.
If you're going to grow rice, then grow rice properly.
They're actually raising fish and ducks in rice paddies.
If you're just raising fish, then if you think about it carefully, it's not entirely unacceptable.
After all, the water in the paddy fields is more than enough to raise fish.
But after raising fish, you also raise ducks, which is hard to understand.
Everyone knows that ducks eat fish.
So when everyone learned and saw with their own eyes that Lin Anshu had been busy raising fish in the paddy fields and then introducing breeding ducks, everyone was waiting.
Some people are waiting to see the results, some are waiting to see the spectacle, and some are simply curious and want to see if this approach will work.
And so we waited and waited, and now...
Lin Anshu is about to reap the rewards.
Surprisingly, nothing major happened during this process.
Ducks eating fish? Oh, that's not true.
Lin Anshu first released the fish fry into the rice paddies.
The breeding ducks were only released after the fish fry had grown to a certain size.
At this stage, the fish fry have grown quite large, and the breeding ducks are no longer able to eat them.
Moreover, in this way, her rice is absolutely grown without pesticides or fertilizers.
Everyone in the village is a witness to this.
But now, looking at it, wow, the rice in those paddy fields is growing so well...
They are golden yellow and heavy, looking like a bountiful harvest, full of the joy of a good harvest.
More importantly, the fish in their rice paddies are also ready for a bumper harvest.
The carp, grass carp, and crucian carp, each weighing over a pound, were lively and plump.
Being eaten by a duck? That's impossible.
Moreover, the villagers also heard that many of the rice paddy fish from Lin Anshu's family had already been pre-ordered before the harvest.
These rice paddy fish are much more expensive than regular fish.
Even so, it still sells very well.
As for the breeding ducks, Lin Anshu initially let them swim freely in the paddy fields.
Because the presence of ducks swimming in the water can increase the oxygen levels for the fish, the need for an aerator and the associated costs are reduced.
However, after observation, Lin Anshu discovered that if the ducks were allowed to swim freely in the paddy fields without being restrained, the water in the paddy fields would become acidic.
A slightly acidic water quality indicates eutrophication in the pond. In other words, the water is too rich in nutrients, with an excess of nitrogen, phosphorus, and other nutrients.
Such an environment is unfriendly to fish.
Therefore, Lin Anshu made timely improvements.
She confined the ducks to a certain area.
A net was set up within that area to enclose the ducks.
In this way, the ducks will not be able to defecate all over the pond, thus preventing changes in water quality.
At the same time, the oxygenation effect still exists.
Just like now, the pond water quality has been improved after being disinfected with quicklime, and the pond has also been sterilized.
The fish live in a very comfortable environment, so they grow particularly well.
In addition, Lin Anshu would occasionally leak some spiritual energy into them to nourish them.
Therefore, their quality is even more delicious than the fish raised in that pond.
As for the ducks, they have all grown plump and somewhat cute, and when they paddle through the clear water with their red webbed feet, they have a carefree and relaxed feeling.
Lin Anshu's rice paddy fish sell for 26 yuan per jin (500g).
It wasn't too expensive, but it was still much more expensive than the fish sold in the market.
And you know what? Quite a few people came to buy fish.
Besides those who pre-ordered Lin Anshu's rice paddy fish, many villagers also came to buy them.
They wanted to taste what made fish raised in this way so delicious.
Anyway, each fish weighs only a little over one or two pounds.
They can still afford it.
At his wife's urging, Lin Jianshe came over and bought two fish.
He chose a carp and a crucian carp; he braised the carp and made soup with the crucian carp.
The two fish weighed about 1.5 jin each, which came to a total of 78 yuan.
Influenced by his wife, Lin Jianshe's home is currently undergoing renovations.
After consulting numerous resources and asking many people, they finally found a suitable construction team to help them renovate their guesthouse.
They were still very grateful to Lin Anshu.
Without Lin Anshu, their cherries wouldn't have sold so quickly or been so expensive this year.
It just so happens that their family also has several acres of paddy fields, which they used to grow simply as rice.
If the rice paddy fish are good, they plan to follow Lin Anshu's example and start a rice paddy fish and duck business.
In this way, not only can you harvest rice, but you can also get fish and ducks as an extra.
Rice paddy fish and rice paddy ducks are not cheap.
They're really interested in anything that can make money.
After Lin Jianshe brought the fish he bought home, his wife didn't sit idle either. She immediately took out the crucian carp, processed it, and made soup.
After cleaning the crucian carp, she first patted it dry with kitchen paper, then heated oil in a pan and fried the fish over low heat until both sides were golden brown.
Then, pour boiling water into a pot, add the fish, a little salt, and sliced ​​scallions and ginger, and start simmering.
Once the broth turns milky white and appears slightly thick, the fish soup is ready.
Lin Jianshe's wife, Zhao Cuilan, opened the pot lid and was immediately greeted by a pungent aroma.
The aroma is incredibly rich; it smells delicious.
