Chapter 111 A Great Harvest of Crabs (1/2)



Since agreeing to help the army make special hemostatic drugs, Lin Qingmei's already busy life has become even more tight. She goes back and forth between home and the farm every day.

It is almost July and the first crabs have grown up and are ready to be harvested.

That day, in order to ensure smooth fishing, Lin Qingmei arrived at the farm early. The workers were all ready to do their jobs. Just then, County Magistrate Wang came to Linjia Bay with a dozen government officials.

Lin Qingmei hurriedly came forward and said, "County Magistrate Wang, Deputy County Magistrate Chen, it is truly an honor for us to have you visit our farm!"

County Magistrate Wang smiled and explained: "Your crab farming is a major project in our county. Today is the day of crab harvest. How can we be absent!"

"Then come with me. The workers are ready now. We can start work after we pass through."

Then everyone went to the crab pond to check the fishing situation.

I saw the workers skillfully pulling up crab cages, which were full of plump crabs.

Since this is the first year of raising crabs, everyone is crossing the river by feeling the stones, and there are not many crab seedlings in the crab pond.

After half a year of breeding, the smallest crab in the crab pond weighs two taels.

This was the first time that Deputy County Chief Chen came to the Linjiawan breeding farm. He had always been against breeding farms and had never visited a breeding farm before.

Today, when he looked at the crabs in the crab pond, he realized that he was really short-sighted.

He used to laugh at County Magistrate Wang, thinking that it was unnecessary for him to run a breeding farm, and that it would be a waste of time. He never expected that the breeding farm would become so successful, and he was really slapped in the face.

"Comrade Lin Qingmei, you have done a good job. The farm has a good harvest this year, and you have made an indelible contribution." County Magistrate Wang smiled so hard that his teeth were visible. The farm was his first project since he came to Nancheng County. Now that the farm is up and running, he has added another credit to his political achievements.

Lin Qingmei laughed when she heard this: "Thanks to County Magistrate Wang's strong support, otherwise there would be no such scene now."

Everyone chatted while watching the workers catch crabs. Soon, several baskets full of crabs were placed on the shore.

County Magistrate Wang clapped his hands and said, "This first batch of crabs is of great significance. I think we should select a few of the largest and fattest ones to reward all the workers in the farm. Our farm has been so successful thanks to everyone's hard work."

Lin Qingmei's eyes lit up and she nodded vigorously. Who wouldn't want to take advantage of a bargain? "I'll arrange it right away."

Lin Qingmei turned and walked towards the workers, telling them County Magistrate Wang's decision. The workers cheered immediately, with simple smiles on their faces.

With the encouragement of the big crabs, the crab catchers worked harder.

As the fishing work was coming to an end, Lin Qingmei began to calculate the number of crabs. County Magistrate Wang had found a market for these crabs, and they would be loaded onto trucks and shipped to Gan Province tonight.

Crabs are still very popular in inland cities. As long as there is stock, there is no problem selling them.

At this time, the convoy responsible for transportation arrived ahead of schedule.
