Chapter 119
Continue walking towards the crayfish-rich paddy fields.
Soon after, I arrived at the edge of a large field.
This field is made up of many small fields. As far as the eye can see, it's a very large area.
"We're just catching it here." Li Xian said.
Qiu Ru and Xiao Jing both nodded.
Then, Qiu Ru said: "Boss, after a while, will all these fields be planted with rice?"
Li Xian smiled and said, "It seems that you still know more about this aspect."
Qiu Ru also smiled and said, "After all these fields are planted with rice, they must be very beautiful!"
Li Xian said, "Indeed." A piece of greenery. When the wind blows, rice waves are formed, which is even more beautiful!
Qiu Ru and Xiao Jing both nodded.
Although they have not seen it in reality, they have seen it on TV, and it is indeed very beautiful!
I hope to have the opportunity to see it in real life in the future.
At this time, Li Xian had already taken off his slippers, rolled up his trouser legs, and went down to the field.
A bit cold.
But acceptable.
After Qiu Ru and Xiao Jing saw Li Xian go to the field, they were very excited and looking forward to it.
Looking forward to Li Xian catching the first crayfish.
"Crayfish make holes in the fields. Often a good field is beaten to pieces, causing water leakage in the field, or even the consequences of the collapse of the field. So, in the countryside, crayfish are a pest. Li Xian introduced the two people.
In this regard, both people were slightly surprised. They really don't know that.
All they know is that crayfish are farmed. It's like raising fish.
I didn't expect that crayfish would cause so much damage in the fields of the countryside.
"So, in the past, the villagers hated crayfish." Li Xian said again, "But now it's almost not annoying." Because it is now popular to eat crayfish. Villagers can not only catch their own crayfish to eat. You can also catch crayfish to sell for money. Crayfish are sold casually for a dozen yuan a pound. If you grab a few catties or ten catties a day, it is more than a hundred yuan.
Qiu Ru and Xiao Jing both nodded.
Crayfish are cheaper for a dozen dollars a pound. When it is expensive, twenty dollars a pound, or even thirty yuan a pound.
Also, wasn't it popular to eat crayfish before?
After the two people recalled something, Xiao Jing said: "In this way, when I was very young, it seemed that it was not popular to eat crayfish. When did it become popular to eat crayfish?
Li Xian said, "It should be the last ten years." When exactly did I forget.
Qiu Ru and Xiao Jing both nodded.
At this time, Li Xian found a crayfish hole. He said to Qiu Ru and Xiao Jing: "Come here, there is a crayfish hole here." "
Found a crayfish hole?
Qiu Ru and Xiao Jing were both overjoyed.
Walked over quickly.
Li Xian pointed to the upper and lower levels of the field, near a position on the surface of the water for the two people to see.
The two people saw that it was a very small hole, the size of a finger.
Is the crayfish hole so small?
Unlikely, right?
With such a small hole, slightly larger crayfish should not be able to enter!
Li Xian smiled slightly, and dug up a lump of silt at the mouth of the cave with his hand.
After digging, a hole with a diameter of at least six or seven centimeters was revealed.
Qiu Ru and Xiao Jing were both stunned.
It turns out that this is the real crayfish cave entrance.
They had been deceived earlier.
Li Xian said: "Crayfish usually use a lump of silt to block their holes. Only a tiny hole remains. Or even leave no holes at all. Therefore, we can often judge whether there are crayfish in the cave according to whether there is silt at the mouth of the cave? If there is silt at the mouth of the cave, there will be crayfish in almost 100% of the cave, and if there is no silt at the mouth of the cave, there will most likely be no crayfish in the hole. It's just quite possible, not absolutely without crayfish. Qiu
Ru and Xiao Jing both nodded their heads one after another, listening with great interest.
They had no idea that there were all these things about crayfish holes.
"So what now? Reach in and grab it directly? Qiu Ru asked.
Li Xian nodded, "Directly reach in and grab it."
"But, boss." Xiao Jing said again, "Aren't you afraid that this is not a crayfish cave, but a snake cave?" What if the thing you reach in and touch is a snake? How scary is that?
Li Xian smiled and said, "Look carefully, there is water in this cave." Snakes don't live in holes with water. Unless it's a water snake. But there are generally no water snakes in the fields. Generally, only rivers, streams, and weirs may have water snakes. Also, the mouth of the Water Snake Cave will not have the kind of silt you just saw. So, this will definitely only be a crayfish hole. Don't be afraid!
Qiu Ru and Xiao Jing both nodded.
They believed what Li Xian said. But if they want to put their hands into such holes, they will definitely not dare.
Even if it's not a snake cave, there may be something else in it!
Like leeches. If this is touched....
Both of them shivered inexplicably.
It's scary to think about.
They really admired Li Xian for daring to put his hand in.
And Li Xian had indeed put his hand into the hole at this time.
The more you reach in, the more you get in.
When the whole arm had already gone in for more than half, Li Xian said: "I touched it." "
Touched?"
Qiu Ru and Xiao Jing were excited.
Is the first crayfish coming on stock today?
The answer is true.
Soon, Li Xian dragged a crayfish out of the hole.
The crayfish were covered in mud and could not see their true faces.
Li Xian grabbed the crayfish and washed it in the water.
After washing away the silt, the crayfish revealed their true face.
It is not small, and its body is reddish-brown.
Really caught the crayfish from the hole.
Qiu Ru and Xiao Jing were both excited. It was the first time they had seen someone catch a crayfish from a hole.
I've never seen it before, even on TV or on the Internet.
They didn't know that crayfish could make holes in paddy fields.
The two of them felt extremely strange. Today it was an eye-opener.
Li Xian threw the crayfish into the hole. He added: "There are usually two crayfish in a hole, one male and one female. I'll see if there's anything else in it? He
said, putting his hand into the hole again.
After a short while, sure enough, another one was dragged out.
This one is slightly smaller than the one just now.
Sure enough, there was another one.
Qiu Ru and Xiao Jing both brightened their eyes.
Then, Qiu Ru said again: "Boss, is it possible that there is a third one inside?"
Li Xian smiled and said, "Almost certainly not anymore." Crayfish do not engage in love triangles.
Qiu Ru smiled and said, "I'll just ask casually." "
Li Xianwan'er.
Next, continue looking for the new crayfish hole.
