Chapter 914
"What does the mulberry fish pond mean?" Lizheng was a little confused after hearing this.

He understands that the fish pond is a pond for raising fish, but he does not understand what Sankey is.

After hearing this, Xiaoer briefly explained what a mulberry fish pond is and the benefits of this ecological cycle.

"Wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful! It's so wonderful! Who thought of this idea! Why didn't we think of it!" Hearing Xiaoer's words, Lizheng couldn't help but praise repeatedly: "In that case, in the future, one mu of land will not only You can harvest silk and sell fish! This really kills two birds with one stone!"

Zhu Yan smiled and nodded: "Yes, that's it. Originally, we planned to buy the 200-mu paddy field from what we had planted, but the villagers should be reluctant to sell it! If only some people sell it and some people don't, The paddy field is one piece to the east and one piece to the west, and it is not convenient to manage, so I would like to ask Lizheng to ask the villagers in a few villages if they would like to build a mulberry fishpond?"

"What's there to be unhappy about? It must be extremely happy! Most of the paddy fields only have a bumper harvest once in three years, and they usually don't even have enough food and clothing! I'm not happy about this, what else do I want?" Li Zheng said loudly replied.

If the villagers were asked to sell their fields, they would not be happy. Lizheng could understand that, after all, the price of this kind of paddy fields was not high, and the money would not be enough to buy another acre of land.

Although the fields are rotten, whether we can have enough food and clothing depends on whether God rewards us or not, but at any rate, there will be no harvest every year, right?

In fact, the common people here treat the land like a child. Although the child is disobedient, not smart, and has no achievements or abilities, the parents still have to have him.

"Then please ask Lizheng to ask the villagers' opinions on this matter." Xiao'er said with a smile.

"Yes, please trouble Uncle Lizheng." Zhu Yan also nodded.

"No problem, it's up to me. I just don't know how to calculate the price of the silk and fish raised by the villagers?"

After hearing this, Zhu Yan said: "The purchase price of fresh cocoons ranges from 30 Wen to 40 Wen per catty, depending on the quality of fresh cocoons. The purchase price of dried cocoons ranges from 80 Wen to 90 Wen per catty. A catty of real silk is 360 Wen to [-] Wen. The price range is this, and the price will be determined by the quality. What I am talking about now is the price of mulberry silk, not the price of tussah silk.”

The lowest price of fresh cocoons goes to 30 Wen, which is not low, and can be said to be a very high price.

Lizheng was very happy to hear this. Someone in his family has also raised silkworms, so he probably knows the yield of fresh cocoons: "One mu of mulberry forest can raise 4 seasons of silkworms a year, and 2 to 3 seeds per season. Each sheet can produce about 80 catties of fresh cocoons. How much money can I earn in that year? Let me calculate."

"According to 30 renminbi a catty of fresh cocoons, if you raise 4 seasons a year, and 2 seeds per season, you can earn 19.2 taels." Xiao'er quickly said the minimum amount of silver that can be earned. She was a little surprised that it could be raised here for a year. Four Seasons Silkworm!The climate here is really suitable for silkworm rearing.

Before Lizheng could be happy, he was surprised. He looked at Xiao'er in surprise, and figured it out so quickly? !
Zhu Yan just calculated it just now. She thought that she was already talented enough in arithmetic, but she didn't expect someone to be faster than herself.

Master Zhu also took a look at Xiao'er in surprise: "Young people are formidable, beyond reach!"

Shangguan Xuanyi and Jing Rui are used to it.

"However, mulberry-based fish ponds are incomparable with traditional mulberry planting and sericulture. Mulberry-based fish ponds are complementary to each other by planting mulberry on the base of the pond, feeding mulberry leaves to silkworms, raising fish in silkworm sand, ponds with fish dung and mud. .

Mulberry trees are only planted on raised pond bases, and mulberry fish ponds are built according to the standard of six bases and four ponds. Although the planting area of ​​mulberry trees is reduced, the yield of mulberry leaves per mulberry tree will increase instead, and I will provide some High-quality mulberry species and silkworm eggs are for everyone. Those mulberry trees have higher leaf yield and greater silk production. "

Lizheng's eyes lit up when he heard this, the things cultivated from good seeds can be rewarded with twice the result with half the effort!

Just look at the super rice, super wheat, sweet potato, potato, cotton, etc. seeds provided by the imperial court!Which one is planted, and the output is not two or three times that of the previous one? !
Because of these good breeds, I don’t know how many people have been fed and warmed in the past few years!
He met a businessman from Nangong Kingdom last year, and he couldn't help sighing, why he wasn't born in Minze!
By the way, I heard that these seeds were all researched by the Marquis of Shengping, the prefect and his family!
This magistrate can come to them to be the magistrate, it is really a blessing from God!

I don't know what kind of good life this magistrate can bring to the people here, thinking that here is looking at Jing Rui with very eager eyes.

Jing Rui was so watched that he couldn't help reaching out and touching his face, thinking that there was something on his face.

"I don't know when Lizheng will ask the villagers and give us an answer?" Zhu Yan interrupted Lizheng's gaze.

Li Zheng looked at Zhu Yan, thought for a while and said, "The day after tomorrow!"

Transforming the fields into mulberry fish ponds, instead of planting food to raise fish and silkworms, Lizheng estimated that some old-fashioned villagers would not agree, but it doesn't matter, with his sharp tongue, he will be able to convince Their!
"Well, we'll come back the day after tomorrow."

"Since it is a mulberry fish pond, where both fish and silkworms are raised, what about the fish? Do you accept them?"

"Shut up, we can dig the pond deeper and raise more dace. Dace can be mixed with grass carp and crucian carp."

"Dace? It's long, a dace as big as two fingers?" Li Zheng stretched out three fingers to compare, and found that it was wider, then retracted another finger, and only stretched out two fingers .

Xiao'er glanced at it and nodded: "Yes, dace with only one to two weights is the best."

Too big dace is not easy to crisp the bones.

"There are a lot of this kind of dace in the river. Children in the village often catch it. There are many fish bones. Many people don't like to eat it!

There are many fish bones, and children can easily get stuck in their throats when they eat fish bones, and they will not cough it out. It is too dangerous, so everyone does not like to eat it.

Some children caught this kind of fish and boiled them directly in water without oil or salt. They were only used to feed cats and dogs. "

Xiao'er really doesn't know about this, the dace made of black bean sauce tastes very good, it goes well with rice, and even the bones can be eaten!So there is no problem of fishbone getting stuck.

There are also breastfeeding women who do not have much milk. They boil the fried fish until golden on both sides into milky white fish soup, and drink a lot of milk.

"Then how much do you sell dace per catty here?"

"No one sells it, and no one will buy it for a penny or a catty! There is no meat to eat, so buy it and eat bones?"

Xiaoer: "..."

　Thank you, He Fengjiao's mother, for the reward, and thank you to the book friends who voted.
