    Chapter 547

    The wonderful uses of cow dung

    "What can we do? Xiaohao, you must find a way for me." Looking at the thumb-sized guy in the basin, Wang Shengli gritted his teeth with hatred and had a headache, but there was nothing he could do with these things.

    If the matter is not resolved quickly, in a few weeks, those dragonfly larvae will probably eat up all the loach seedlings in the weir pond.  .

    "What can I do?" Liu Junhao replied with a wry smile. He had already thought about several methods just now, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that they were unreliable.

    Raise other fish in the weir pond and let them eat dragonfly larvae.  There are many omnivorous fish. The key is that those fish eat dragonfly larvae and loach seedlings at the same time. If this continues, the gain outweighs the loss.

    Fishing with a fishing net?  It is indeed a method, but this method treats the symptoms rather than the root cause. New dragonfly larvae emerge from the bottom of the water every day, and if this continues, it will also have a great impact on the loach seedlings.  Although loach is a bottom fish and is close to the mud, the newly born loach seedlings are different. They have poor oxygen tolerance. Once the pond is flooded and the water quality deteriorates, a large number of loach seedlings will definitely die.

    Spreading pesticides to eliminate insects Using this method to kill dragonfly larvae should have a good effect, but Liu Junhao does not support it.  The main reason is that the use of medicines will cause great damage to loach seedlings, and if it causes accumulation of toxins, these loaches will be harmful to people when they are put on the market.

    Unable to find a way, Liu Junhao also sighed.  He kept thinking about the situation when he caught fish in Liujiagou, and suddenly his mind moved and he shouted: "Old Wang, I have found a method, but this method is estimated to cost several hundred yuan."

    "No problem, just tell me!!" Wang Shengli asked urgently.  He has spent tens of thousands of yuan since contracting this fish pond.  If dragonfly larvae could be eliminated, it wouldn't hurt even if it cost tens of thousands of dollars, let alone an additional investment of several hundred yuan.

    "That's right, we can use the window screen to make a long fishing net to find the bottom, go deep into the mud about ten centimeters, and pass it over again. Not to mention the dragonfly larvae, even the field snails and the like can't escape. The first time we should also catch the loach seedlings in the net.  , so you get a few large water basins to temporarily store loach seedlings. Then continue to lower the fishing net and do it back and forth several times to make sure that the weir pond is clean."

    "Xiao Hao, this method is good. The key is who has so much strength? You even wrapped the mud in the fishing net, and the net weighed at least tens of thousands of kilograms." Wang Shengli's face was initially happy, but then dimmed.  .  He had seen fishing nets before, and it took seven or eight people even if they didn't fall into the mud.  According to Liu Junhao, it cannot be operated without hundreds of people.

    "Haha, if humans can't do it, we can use machines." Liu Junhao had already considered this situation.

    "You mean" Wang Shengli was still a little confused.

    "Just find two tractors that pull bricks, put a wire rope on the back, and let them drag the fishing net slowly,"

    Liu Junhao gestured, and Wang Shengli slapped his thigh: "Yes, why didn't I think of that? I'll find someone when I get up tomorrow."

    The problem was solved and the two finally had a peaceful sleep.

    As soon as it was dawn, Wang Shengli took out his mobile phone to make a call and quickly arranged things.

    After breakfast, seven or eight laborers came to the weir and pond.

    After everyone saw the culprit, they were still full of disbelief. It was hard to imagine that a small dragonfly larvae could be so destructive.

    Wang Shengli did not explain much and ordered everyone to make fishing nets on the spot.  The fishing net he wanted had very small mesh and was not sold in stores, so he had to make it himself.  At any rate, there is strength in numbers, and the net can be finished in half an hour.  The lower net is also decorated with large stones. This is mainly to prevent the lower net from breaking away from the mud if the pulling force is too strong.

    Two 125 tractors also came with their bodies removed and stopped steadily by the weir pond.

    With Wang Shengli¡¯s command, the fishing net was launched into the water, and the tractor was walking on the shore, spitting out black smoke.  The mud in the water is constantly churning, creating one turbid splash after another behind the fishing net.  The speed cannot be too fast, otherwise the pulling force of the water flow will be too great, which may easily cause the rope to break.

    They did not plan to filter the weir pond from beginning to end in one go, but divided it into five times according to the original plan.

    Feeling that it was almost done, Wang Shengli immediately shouted to everyone to close the net.

    This time is the key, otherwise if you are not careful, the silt you picked up and the fry will be poured into the water.

    As the fishing net was moved ashore little by little and then poured into the large iron trough, Wang Shengli¡¯s wife had already led a group of women to get busy with the net bags and began to sift out loach seedlings and dragonfly larvae.  This process is critical and must be accelerated, otherwise the loach seedlings will die due to lack of oxygen over time.

    While they were busy on the shore, everyone threw the nets down the weir pond again and started fishing for the second time Repeatedly, they were busy all morning, and finally filtered the weir pond three times, and the last time, only caughtA few dozen dragonfly larvae.

    When they saw the results, everyone was a little surprised.  I never thought that there would be tens of thousands of dragonfly larvae in this weir pond, enough to fill two large pots.  Of course, there were surprises. Wang Shengli thought that the fire heads in the weir pond had been fished out long ago, but who knew that this time he caught two more with a fishing net.  This is an unexpected blessing. If the two fire heads continue to toss, it will also cause considerable losses.

    After finishing the work, Liu Junhao was thinking about his two children. His wife was at home alone, so she would definitely be too busy, so she planned to leave by car.

    Who would have thought that Wang Shengli and his wife were fighting hard and refusing to let him go: "Xiaohao, if you leave now, you are slapping me in the face. You have helped me so much. Let's have a few drinks at noon."

    It was hard to reject the warm hospitality, so Liu Junhao had no choice but to call his wife and say she would be home in the afternoon.

    Wang Shengli was very excited when the problem was solved. He brought all the people who helped him to the hotel at noon and found a private room for a big meal.

    "Xiao Hao, I'm not very knowledgeable, tell me how dragonflies lay their eggs into the water." During the dinner, Wang Shengli asked another question.

    "Actually, you've seen this before," Liu Junhao explained with a smile: "Don't look at this thing flying in the air all day long, but when it lays eggs, it must be in a place with water. We usually see dragonflies touching the water, which is how they lay their eggs nearby.  On the aquatic plants, larvae will hatch after a while. The larvae will live in the water for a period of time, then climb out of the water along the branches of the aquatic plants, and turn into flying dragonflies"

    Before he finished speaking, his smile disappeared.

    Although this batch of dragonfly larvae has been solved, it is not completely finished. As long as the dragonflies lay eggs above the weir pond, there will definitely still be larvae in the water.

    He came up with this guess, and everyone who was drinking happily was stunned again.

    "It seems that we need to use window screens to build a protective net over the weir pond to prevent dragonflies from falling into the water." Wang Shengli is now drawing inferences.  After dinner, Wang Shengli originally wanted to drive Liu Junhao home.

    Seeing that his face was red from drinking, Liu Junhao didn¡¯t dare to let this person see him off, so he took the bus directly back to Liujiagou.

    I went to the village entrance to call my wife. She was pushing the youngest and the second child to play by the weir pond.  Liu Junhao didn't go home and turned directly to the weir pond.

    The two children had not seen their father for a day, so they were very excited to see Liu Junhao and rushed to be hugged by him.

    Liu Junhao coaxed the little ones for a while, and then he went over to see the tourists fishing by the pond.  Now that the weather is getting hotter, the number of tourists coming to Liujiagou to fish is several times more than usual.

    Seeing him coming, several familiar tourists greeted him one after another.

    One of them even asked: "Xiao Hao, do you sell any bait for making nests in your town? I came in such a hurry that I forgot to bring it."

    Making a nest, to put it bluntly, means putting bait into the water to attract fish to eat, and then people set the hook to fish.  Especially in places where the water is wide, making nests plays a big role.  According to the different types of fish caught, the bait used to make nests is also different, which can be divided into powder, paste, granular and even high-quality bait.

    "What kind of fish are you going to catch?" Liu Junhao asked back.

    ¡°I¡¯m not particular about what kind of fish is caught on the hook?¡± the fishing friend then responded.

    "Oh, I'll find you some bait for making a nest." Liu Junhao said, turning his head and looking into the distance, and saw a big ox lying leisurely in the shade of the tree next to him.  Not far from it, there were several piles of cow dung that had long since dried.

    "Just shovel those cow dung over with a shovel, they are good bait."

    Before he finished speaking, his wife pinched him: "What are you talking about?"

    The tourist also showed embarrassment on his face, thinking that he was being joked about, and he didn¡¯t know how to respond.

    "I'm really not kidding. This nest-making effect is very good. Cow dung has miraculous effects on grass, carp, bream, white bream, crucian carp, etc. If you don't believe me, try it." Liu Junhao kept shouting that they were wronged, but judging from their expressions, it was obvious that they didn't believe it.  .

    "Cow dung can really make nests?" A fishing friend passing by came over and asked, "I've heard this before, is it useful?"

    "You will know if it works or not. You will know if you try it." Liu Junhao was puzzled as to why no one believed it when he told the truth.

    This fishing friend believed Liu Junhao¡¯s words and put down his things directly: ¡°I¡¯ll try to shovel two shovels.¡±

    ¡°You want the kind that is dry, resistant to soaking, and has good results,¡± Liu Junhao warned from behind.

    When I heard that someone was using cow dung to make a nest, the fishing friends nearby thought it was very strange and gathered around them one after another.  For many people, this is the first time they know that cow dung has this effect.  Of course, I had heard people talk about some of it, but unfortunately I didn¡¯t take it seriously. Now that I have the opportunity to practice it with my own eyes, I shouldn¡¯t miss it.

    Liu Junhao is very confident in this, so whatthis has been tested in practice.?When they were young, fishing was not as luxurious as today's fishing friends, spending dozens or hundreds of yuan on bait. At that time, even using dough as bait would get beaten, so cow dung was a commonly used raw material for making nests.

    Of course, this is something that people who have no experience of rural life cannot imagine.

    The dried cow dung was thrown into the water. Half an hour later, the fishing friend hung earthworms and threw them into the nest.  In less than five minutes, the pole was dragged directly and a carp weighing more than 2 kilograms was pulled in.

    Not long after, the rod was dragged again In less than half an hour, four carp were caught in a row.

    Now everyone no longer had any doubts, and they all carried shovels to dig out cow dung and make nests.

    "How about it, Brother Xinhao, you can live forever!" Liu Junhao was furious when he saw the shock on his wife's face.

    "Go to hell, you are the only one who can come up with such a disgusting fishing method." Zhang Qian couldn't stand his complacency and gave him a small blow.
