Chapter 65 65. Nine out of ten people make mistakes
Hearing Luo Yihang's words, Qiang Wa jumped up and asked excitedly: "What? You want to raise crayfish?"

Crayfish is great and has been very popular in recent years, especially in the summer when there are crowds of people.

"Let's ask first. I don't know if I haven't raised one before." Luo Yihang was a little confused. "Do you recognize him?"

"Yes, I'll ask for you."

"Well, what to eat, how to raise, how much does the seedling cost, how long does it take to grow." Luo Yihang counted on his fingers one by one, "Also, can I ask if the fish pond can raise shrimps."

Alas, I just said in the morning that I would not move the fish pond, and now I plan to go back on my word in the afternoon.

People cannot escape the law of true fragrance.

Qiangwa made an OK gesture, found the phone and dialed the number.

"Old Qian, I want to ask you something. Do you have shrimp seedlings? What kind of shrimp? Crayfish? What kind of crayfish? Find me one that eats less, grows fast, doesn't get sick, isn't picky about where to grow, is easy to sell, and is expensive? What? You want me to find one for you? How would I know what's available? Damn it, I'm asking seriously."

After a lot of nonsense, Qiangwa finally started to talk properly to the other party.

Luo Yihang listened with his ears perked up and caught a few key points.

Crayfish are omnivorous. They usually feed on feed and also eat grass. However, you cannot let them eat the grass in the pond. You have to feed them grass feed.

That's all that's good.

Every day, the spiritual energy promotes the growth of a lot of vegetables and a lot of weeds. In addition, the unwanted leaves and stems removed from the vegetable fields when thinning out the seedlings to see if they will bear fruit need to be cleaned up a lot every day.

Once the stage is set up and the spirit gathering formation is laid out, there will definitely be a huge amount of grass.

It can be used to feed shrimps, so it’s not a waste.

Luo Yihang was confident that the shrimps raised with spiritual grass would grow exceptionally well. At worst, he could just set up two spirit gathering arrays beside the shrimp pond.

The crayfish raised in this way must be of excellent quality, just like the vegetables at home, there will be no shortage of buyers.

What comes next doesn’t matter. Whether it’s difficult to raise or prone to disease, these are not a problem with the blessing of spiritual feed.

Qiangwa also asked about a few other key points.

The people selling shrimp fry there said that crayfish can be raised in deep-water fish ponds, and that the ones raised are quite big. Many local fish farmers have simply converted their fish ponds into shrimp farming.

There is still enough time, so you can plant the shrimp fry directly. They will be enough to grow in two months, but it will be a bit expensive.

The phone call lasted more than half an hour.

Mr. Qian on the other side heard that he wanted to introduce his business, and he was very enthusiastic and detailed in his presentation.

After Qiang Wa hung up the phone, Luo Yihang immediately took out a piece of paper and wrote to Qiang Wa, "Let's do the math first. How many shrimp seedlings are there per acre?"

"There are 60 shrimp fry per pound, and 60 pounds are enough for one acre. Lao Qian gave us 20 yuan per pound."

"That's 1,200 yuan per acre. What about the feed?"

"I'll ask the manufacturer to buy some shrimp feed. The amount of feed depends on the weight of the shrimp. I'll estimate two thousand per acre."

"Okay, get me a feed grinder so I can make some fodder out of the leaves, stems, and weeds in the fields."

"I have it, a little thing. I'll bring it to you next time. I'll give you two thousand dollars."

"Well, what else is there? How much does it cost for the blocking nets, disinfectant, aquatic plants, water quality test kits, and other miscellaneous items?"

"Two hundred yuan per acre, that should be about right."

"Okay, the total is twelve thousand plus two hundred. One acre is fourteen thousand, multiplied by seven, nine thousand eight hundred, plus two thousand for the machine, twelve thousand."

"If everything goes well, one acre can produce 600 kilograms of shrimp, and one kilogram sells for 6 yuan, so one acre is yuan, and seven acres is yuan... NND, I haven't counted the cost of fishing, transportation, loss, and labor. I still have to make the feed myself. It's boring."

This is calculated based on the normal purchase price.

After doing the math, Qiangwa was discouraged. The cost was 12,000, the revenue was 25,000, and the gross profit was only 13,000.

This is the result of many things being priced at genuine friendship prices.

Breeding is not a good business as it requires high investment, has low profits and high risks.

"The rent hasn't been calculated yet. Renting a fish pond is much more expensive than renting a farmland." Luo Yihang added.

Then he called the village chief’s grandmother.

…"I asked, the guide price of fish ponds is 800 yuan per mu, the village can reduce it to 600 yuan, if you pay for five years at a time, yuan for a seven-mu pond."

"Forget it, forget it. I'm not going to do this anymore. No wonder the fish farmer lost money before. I'll lose money no matter what I do."

When Qiang Wa heard the price, he was completely disappointed, but Luo Yihang had other ideas.

Normally speaking, raising crayfish will definitely result in a loss in the first year.

If you want to invest in such a large area in the mountains to engage in breeding, you have to sell at a high price, much higher than normal.

Just like the one who raised fish before.

His approach is right. He created a gimmick, high mountain cold-water fish, which sounds like a good thing, but also sounds expensive.

But the problem is that pure gimmicks are created by big capital. They spend 1 yuan in advertising fees to sell a 5 yuan product for 10 yuan. Small businesses cannot afford it.

If ordinary small households want to sell their products at high prices, they must have high quality to support the high price.

It has to be truly high quality, far superior to its peers. It can't be just slightly better than ordinary ones.

Just like the vegetables grown by Luo Yihang, you don’t need to be very professional, ordinary people can tell that they are good things after just one taste.

Or like the Poria cocos planted by Luo Yihang (Luo Cheng said: meow meow meow???), professionals can tell at first glance that it is a good thing.

Only truly good things can be sold at high prices.

But the fish farming company has nothing, no quality, no advertising, and no channels, so it will lose money.

So, under normal circumstances, compensation will definitely be paid.

But this does not include Luo Yihang, the abnormal guy with a cheat.

It’s not too much to sell 81 kilograms of shrimp raised with spiritual feed, right?
One acre yields 600 kilograms, seven acres yields 4,000 kilograms, and eighty kilograms per kilogram equals 320,000 yuan.

It’s not even enough to cover half of the shed.

So, to earn the 80 yuan from selling shrimps...

It can be sold for two hundred per kilogram.

Then when I quoted a price, I was scolded by the seller.

I would say nothing about it. What kind of crayfish is that? Did it grow up eating gold?
I dare to sell it for two hundred if it’s alive!

……

However, Luo Yihang still plans to raise crayfish.

First, it is to avoid wasting spiritual energy. Grass is also nourished by spiritual energy, so it would be a waste to throw it away.

Secondly, every bit of profit is good. Wait until it grows out and see how much it can be sold for. If it can't be sold for 200, 80 should be fine. Anyway, there is a cheat, so you will definitely make money, it's just a matter of how much.

At worst, we can do it in batches. Instead of confiscating fifteen sheds at a time, we can confiscate ten or even five sheds. Just confiscate as many sheds as the money allows.

make up one's mind.

Luo Yihang went to Qiang Wa again and asked, "Please ask me about the vegetable seedlings. What can I plant at this time?"

"What else can we plant? There are so many. Cabbage, radish, summer cucumber, lentil, eggplant, tomato, loofah, winter melon, pumpkin, bitter melon, green pepper, bell pepper, cowpea, cauliflower, rapeseed, amaranth, leek, onion, ginger, garlic. Just tell me what you want."

"Can you get them all?"

"It's very simple. All the seeds and fertilizers for those nurseries come from me."

It’s convenient to have a guy who runs an agricultural supplies station. He can handle everything.

"Then you can handle it. Sixteen acres of land. Try to get as many varieties as possible."

"That's a lot to ask for."

Qiangwa complained and went to make a phone call.
