    Chapter 397: Hedgehog makes a nest

    "Quack!" The cormorant escaped from the clutches and began to pull its neck and scream.  Liu Junhao caught him several times before he calmed down.

    "My leg was bitten off by an otter, and I probably won't be able to keep it alive. How about we stew it for dinner at night, just to replenish it for you." He pinched the plump cormorant leg and suggested.  This thing tastes similar to wild duck, but it is difficult to catch. He hasn't eaten it in several years.  Now Baoyu brings it to his door, just in time to kill it and replenish it for his wife.

    "No, why do you want to eat everything? Bring it back and I will raise it, and then let it fly when it is raised." Zhang Qian frowned, and Liu Junhao could only nod in agreement.

    He cried out in his heart that it was a pity that he missed another opportunity to enjoy his meal.  If I had known better, I would have let Baoyu bite him to death before bringing him back, then my wife would have said nothing.

    The couple smiled at several tourists and prepared to hold the cormorants and turn around to enter the house.

    "Wait, you are Liu Junhao. We are specifically looking for you" Ge Wenyi woke up from the surprise and shouted quickly.

    "What's the matter? Let's talk in the yard." Liu Junhao thought they were going to buy watermelons, so he nodded in agreement.

    When Fatty Cao and others entered the courtyard, the sight in front of them amazed them again.  This is completely different from the farmyard they imagined.

    The area of ??the front yard alone is hundreds of square meters, and the yard is neatly kept.  The courtyard is lined with green trees, and bunches of grapes are buzzing and buzzing on the grape trellis overhead.  There are also egg-sized dates on the two jujube trees in the corner, so densely packed that the branches seem to be broken.  In addition, there are sunflowers, morning glories, large shiny eggplants, and large yellow loofahs hanging from the vines in the flower pond.  There are also bees flying all over the sky

    Just by being in the courtyard, you can feel that this courtyard is extraordinary.  The owner of the yard is definitely not a common person

    Several people looked at each other, and the contempt in their hearts completely disappeared.

    "Boss Liu, your yard is huge. If you were in the provincial capital, you wouldn't be able to buy such a big yard without a few million for the land alone." Fatty Cao admired sincerely, then pointed to the grapes, "I can buy it  Would you like to try two skewers"

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????: ???????????????????????????????????: The sun basks us in the sun, and when we see the crystal clear grapes, we immediately feel salivating in our mouths.

    "Haha, I'm not a boss, just call me Xiaohao. Of course you can eat grapes if you want, Wukong" As Liu Junhao shouted, the monkey who was tinkering outside immediately ran back to the yard.  He pointed at the grapes, and the guy started screaming, his head shaking.

    Finally, Liu Junhao stretched out two fingers, and then he reluctantly climbed to the shelf and picked two bunches.  When he came down, Wukong pulled off some of the biggest ones and stuffed them into his mouth, which made Liu Junhao angry and funny.

    It is said that domesticated animals follow their owners. The couple are very generous, but the monkey they raised is very stingy, which is really depressing.

    "These grapes are specially for entertaining guests. They are free of charge." Liu Junhao smiled and asked them to sit down.  The couple had no intention of selling the grapes in the courtyard, and planned to produce and sell them themselves. The extra grapes would be dried in the autumn and raisins would be stored for winter consumption.

    "It's delicious." As soon as he peeled a grape, Fatty Cao started to praise it.

    ¡°Eat whatever you want, if it¡¯s not enough, let Wukong pick it later.¡±

    As soon as Liu Junhao finished speaking, the monkey started screaming, obviously reluctant.

    "Your monkey is really funny. Can it understand human speech?" Ge Wenyi asked curiously.

    "Haha, they are all trained." Liu Junhao answered casually.

    ¡°My wife was worried about the cormorant¡¯s safety and had already gone into the house to bandage the waterfowl, so he could only entertain the guests.

    A few people originally wanted to enter the courtyard and talked about buying eels, but after seeing the scenery in the courtyard, they felt embarrassed to mention it.

    After chatting for half an hour, they said they wanted to see a place where eels are raised, but they didn¡¯t know if it was convenient or not.

    ¡°It¡¯s nothing inconvenient, just take a look.¡± Liu Junhao knew they were interested in his own eel again, so he didn¡¯t pay much attention.  There are countless people who want to do the eel business, and one more of them is not too many.

    When they walked into the backyard, they realized the size of the yard was astonishing, and their curiosity became even more intense.

    "Liu Junhao, I'm a little envious of you. It's great to live in the countryside. No one cares how big the yard is." Fatty Cao praised again.

    "Haha, my yard is unique in Liujiagou. It used to be the grain depot of several natural villages." Liu Junhao explained, and everyone suddenly realized.

    Now that the heat has not completely dropped, I saw that the ditch at the base of the wall was densely packed with eel heads, and many of them swam into the grass on the shore. This made several people open their mouths in shock again.

    ???????????? Several of them can be considered people who have seen the big world., but from the moment I entered this yard, I was constantly surprised by the things inside.

    "I said Boss Liu, what do you feed your eel every day?" Xie Dongqiang asked on behalf of everyone the confusion in his heart.

    This is indeed the first time I have seen this method of raising eels.

    He just made a rough estimate that there are at least thousands of eels in this ditch.  As a chef, he naturally knows how to raise eels and knows that so many eels consume a lot of food every day.  The food that a half-sized eel will eat in the next day accounts for 6-7% of the eel's body weight.  If the feeding amount cannot be guaranteed, there will be phenomena of large eels bullying small ones, strong bullying weak ones, and biting and eating each other.

    Monopterus eel mainly eats meat, and the best food is of course earthworms, fish, shrimp and snail meat.  But at his scale, he has to feed at least hundreds of kilograms of bait every day. It is simply unrealistic to get so many fish and shrimps. It will definitely be mixed with some rice bran and bean cakes.

    If this is the case, the quality of the eel cannot be guaranteed at all.

    He had just seen that the eels in the ditch were quite ferocious and fast, just like the wild ones.

    "Haha, no need to feed them. Have you seen the two high-pressure lamps above your head? The insects flying in every night are enough for them to eat half full. In addition, I also raise fish and shrimps in the ditch, which can be used as eels.  Bait." Liu Junhao explained with a smile.

    Only after listening to him did everyone notice the two high-pressure lights above their heads.

    After preparing the high-pressure lamp, Liu Junhao didn¡¯t pay much attention to the eel¡¯s food problem.  His courtyard has a wide view, and countless bugs come following the light every night. Of course, there are also a lot of cicadas this season, and all of them fall into the water and become delicacies of eels.

    Since the sale of grains in the village began, in order to ensure the quality of the food, the villagers have rarely used pesticides and insecticides, and at most they have used herbicides.

    Of course, in order to reduce pests and diseases, Liu Guangju specially ordered people to set up high-voltage lamps in the four corners of the village to exterminate pests, and the effect was very good.

    After visiting the backyard, several people returned to the front yard to sit down.  Ge Wenyi asked tentatively, "Liu Junhao, do you want to take out these eels? I will buy them all. We can discuss the price and sign a contract. As long as the quality is guaranteed, there is no problem if the price is doubled."

    "Boss Ge, I advise you to give up this intention." Liu Junhao kept shaking his head and repeating his previous rejection of others, which was nothing more than that the output was too small and so on.

    Seeing that they really had no intention of cooperating, several people had no choice but to leave in disappointment. Before leaving, they bought a few kilograms of eels and went back.

    That is, Zhang Qian started to get busy.  In order to determine the number of students enrolled in the fourth and fifth grades in the fall, she specially asked the students who came to borrow books to return to the village to send a message about how many students from the other two villages were studying here.

    In the past two days, people have come to register one after another, and Liu Junhao is responsible for the registration.  He did a rough count and found that there were more than 40 people in the fourth and fifth grades combined.  In addition to the boys in my village, there should be more than fifty, enough to open two classes.  What he didn't expect was that many parents from Gaohe Village came to him, saying that Qiuli wanted their children to study in Liujiagou.

    This made Liu Junhao very puzzled. You must know that Gaohe Village is south of Liujiagou, and the neighboring village is more than two miles away.

    When I asked, I found out that people think the teaching at Liujiagou Primary School is better, and they also take care of meals at noon.

    Although these parents were greedy for cheap, Zhang Qian consulted with Teacher Wang and decided to accept them all.  After all, the fact that parents choose to go far away from home is also their affirmation of Liujiagou Primary School, so we can¡¯t turn it away.

    It will be the day after tomorrow that Zhang Qian remembers how to arrange teachers.

    In the past, she and Teacher Wang were the only two people in the school. After classes, they would go home to eat, so there was not even a proper office.

    Now that there are so many teachers here at once, we need an office where we can hold meetings and correct homework.

    The other thing is the accommodation arrangements for teachers. I heard from Liu Guangju that the teaching office has appointed a total of four teachers this time, two of whom are married and have a child.  People must live in Liujiagou, and the house must be arranged in advance.

    There are a few empty houses in the school, but they have been unoccupied for more than a year and need to be cleaned carefully.

    This kind of work can only be done by her husband. Liu Junhao went to the village to say hello and headed towards the school with his gang of child soldiers.

    Good guy, I haven¡¯t been to campus much during the summer vacation, and the grass inside is knee-deep.  Somehow two loofahs grew under the teaching building, and there were several arm-thick green-skinned loofahs hanging under the eaves.  Because no one picked them, the loofahs had shriveled up and become old, making them inedible.  After taking it off and shaking it a few times, there was a buzzing sound inside, and it was obvious that even the seeds were dried in the sun.

    This kind of luffa has no other function except as a seed. Liu Junhao¡¯s own luffa has already left two of his own luffas as seeds, so who would want this thing?Seeing it as fun, the boys grabbed it and said they would use it to set fire to later.  Dried loofah pulp is full of fiber, and it smells very good when burned. Many children like to light loofah pulp as a torch to play with.  Liu Junhao also did this when he was a child. Once he almost picked all the loofahs that were being grown in the village, and he even got beaten for it.

    "You naughty kids can't do anything good, but what if it causes a fire? Give me these loofahs, I will use them when I get back."

    "Uncle Xiao Hao, what's the use of you? The loofah in your yard is better for seeding." Maozi asked back.

    "I'll go down to the river to catch eel seedlings later," Liu Junhao came up with an excuse.

    "Is it true that you can catch eel seedlings with loofah seeds?" Several children suddenly became interested.  This was the first time they heard about this.

    "Of course, hurry up and clean up. After cleaning, I will take you to the river to see it." Seeing that several rooms had not been cleaned, Liu Junhao urged.

    ¡°Okay.¡± I heard that we were going to the river to catch eel seedlings. These naughty kids were very interested.  Everyone was very motivated and opened several empty rooms with brooms.

    "Hedgehog" The little kid burst into the house and immediately shouted excitedly.

    I saw a shallow pit dug out in the corner of the house, surrounded by many leaves and dead grass. A female hedgehog led several young hedgehogs to dodge in panic.

    Hedgehogs generally like to make their nests on the edge of wilderness or streams, but it is easy to encounter natural enemies in the wild.  This hedgehog is quite good at choosing a place and hiding directly in the school.  The three little hedgehogs were less than two months old and were as big as a palm.

    At this time, the hedgehog looked very cute, and the furry children all reached out to grab it, hoping to take it home and raise it.

    The female hedgehog, on the other hand, went crazy, screamed and bit the furry kid on its feet, scaring him.

    Liu Junhao quickly pressed down the hedgehog with a shovel, and the hedgehog immediately formed a ball of thorns.

    "We won't clean this room anymore, let's go to other houses." Anyway, there are many empty rooms in the school, so if we clean one more room, those hedgehogs should stay in the room. They have already regarded this place as their home.  They can help catch mice in the school, otherwise the teachers would have to keep cats when they move here.

    Maobaozi and others were quite unwilling. Liu Junhao threatened to tell Teacher Zhang before they gave up the idea of ??raising hedgehogs.

    After the house was cleaned, several children started shouting and went to the river to watch him catch eel seedlings with loofah pulp.

    Liu Junhao, of course, followed the public opinion and followed closely with a loofah.

    In fact, this method is very simple to say. It doesn¡¯t have much technical content, but most people don¡¯t know it.  Liu Junhao has grown up with Niba since he was a child, and he is definitely an expert in catching fish.  He accidentally discovered that eel seedlings like to drill small holes, and loofah flesh has many holes, which fits this condition.

    Just throw a few dry old loofahs in shallow water. After ten minutes, the young eels will burrow into the loofahs on their own, and then you can take them out.

    If you place it right next to the eel nest, you can collect forty or fifty small eels in one loofah pulp.

    In fact, there is another simple method, which is to get some feed and put it in the straw bag. After a while, the eel seedlings will slowly get into the straw bag.

    After several children watched eels being caught, they decided to take a bath again.

    "Uncle Xiao Hao, can you take a bath? Don't tell Teacher Zhang." These guys are afraid of being punished by the teacher, so they go to the river to take a bath secretly now.

    "Okay, just wash for a while and then come up. Wash in shallow water, don't swim in the middle of the river." With myself watching here, there shouldn't be any problems.  It was just that there had been a heavy rain a few days ago, and the river was much wider and the water was deeper, so he only let the children wash in shallow water.

    Having been busy for a long time just now, Liu Junhao was sweating all over his body, and Liu Junhao also wanted to take a shower.

    There was no one around the river, so he took off his clothes, lay in the shallow water and washed himself with the warm river water.  After adapting to the temperature, he jumped up and appeared six or seven meters away. After waving his hands a few times, he arrived in the middle of the river.

    Liu Junhao hadn't been so happy for a long time. At first, Liu Junhao was paying attention to the group of naughty children having a water fight. After a while, he lay on the water by himself, with his limbs completely stretched and relaxed. His body was like a piece of wood, letting the river water wash him away.  Rush downstream.

    There will be another chapter of 4,000 words later, which will be around 11:30. Today¡¯s update will be 8,000 words.
