Chapter 111 Breeding Arowana and Winter Solstice

In less than half an hour, all 50 fishing nets were exhausted.

This time, a total of 13 arowanas were successfully caught, and 67 arowana seedlings were obtained. The success rate of the capture was only about 25%, and each arowana could get between 5 and 6 seedlings.

At such a low probability level, one can only take the high-quality route through cultivation. If one simply evolves and breeds quickly, the profit can definitely be said to be pitifully low.

Thinking about it, this is also the development route specially set by the system for players.

Looking at the arowana seedlings in the backpack, Lin Dong walked to the other side and came to the three ornamental fish farms that were preparing to breed arowanas.

Now, these three fishing grounds that have been prepared for a long time can finally come in handy.

First put 10 seedlings on one of them, and then turn on the cultivation function.

"Ding! It will cost 5000 gold coins to breed dragon fish. Do you want to breed?"

"..."

Lin Dong thought that the cost of breeding dragon fish would be very expensive, but he didn't expect it to be so expensive. Compared with the cost of breeding koi, it was 1.5 times higher.

However, there is no room for bargaining in the various prices of the system, no matter how expensive it is, you have to grit your teeth and bear it.

"Yes."

Lin Dong could only nod his head to confirm the cultivation, then took out 20 seedlings from his backpack, put 10 in each of the other two ornamental fisheries, and then confirmed the cultivation again.

A total of 30 gold coins were spent on the cultivation of 15 dragon fish seedlings, which made the amount of gold coins in the backpack very small at once.

The net worth of several million is less than half a month, and now it is once again before liberation.

Looking at the juvenile dragon fish in the ornamental fishing ground, Lin Dong couldn't help but secretly sighed, and then continued to get busy.

It wasn't until night fell that after dinner, Lin Dong came to the arowana's ornamental fishing ground again.

It took almost four hours before the arowana finally completed the cultivation.

……

After checking the information of 30 arowanas in turn, only 4 arowanas were not in good condition. This result made Lin Dong feel relieved.

Fortunately, the failure rate of cultivation is not as frighteningly high as the failure rate of capture.

As for the cultivation of luck, it can only be thought about when dreaming at night.

With these in mind, Lin Dong turned and left the breeding area.

Although the arowana has been bred, he does not plan to sell it immediately.

After all, on the surface, he has just dabbled in arowana farming, and he just bought the goods today. If he sells high-quality arowanas in a few days, it will easily arouse suspicion.

In addition, Lin Dong himself wanted to find a suitable opportunity to sell the dragon fish.

And he has already thought about this opportunity, that is when the new store opens.

Therefore, now that he has bred these 30 arowanas, he just wants to see the effect and understand the relevant data.

……

In the days that followed, as Liu Feiyang's sales department got on the right track, orders gradually increased, and Lin Dong also became busier.

Especially after Xiaoxue's solar terms, the temperature keeps dropping. Although it has a healing function, there is no need to worry too much about the death of ornamental fish.

But after all, healing also costs money, which only minimizes the loss, but cannot completely recover the loss.

Therefore, in order not to cause additional losses as much as possible, Lin Dong was extra careful, paying attention to the water temperature of each breeding pond and the situation of diseases every day.

Sometimes when a person is too busy, he will temporarily transfer Qiancheng to help, which makes Qiancheng, who has always been used to leisure, complain endlessly.

As for the new store, the decoration has been working overtime. Lin Dong went to visit it twice. The effect of the decoration has begun to take shape, and there is no problem at all when it is completed before the end of the year.

In this way, in the busyness, time flies by.

In a blink of an eye, more than a month passed quietly.

……

"Wood, today is the winter solstice, have you eaten glutinous rice balls?"

At noon, Lin Dong was on the phone with Sun Xiaoya while checking the thermometers in various fish ponds in the breeding area.

Is it already winter solstice?

Hearing Sun Xiaoya's inquiry, Lin Dong couldn't help but froze for a moment.

For the past few days, he has been so busy that he has been dizzy, and he really didn't realize that today is already the winter solstice.

"No."

Lin Dong shook his head: "In the evening, I'll buy some and cook it for dinner!"

Then, he asked back, "What about you? Have you eaten?"

"We in Rongcheng don't eat glutinous rice balls during the winter solstice. Our custom is to drink mutton soup."

Sun Xiaoya shook her head and described to Lin Dong: "I tell you, the mutton soup here is very delicious.

The fresh and tender mutton and haggis are used, the milky white soup base is served with red millet peppers, and a pinch of shallots and coriander. "

Hearing Sun Xiaoya's vivid description, Lin Dong swallowed exaggeratedly.

"It can't be done. Hearing what you said, I just finished lunch and I'm hungry again."

Hearing this, Sun Xiaoya giggled immediately: "Then you must be hungry!"

"Is it so cruel?"

Lin Dong said with a smirk on his face, "Don't forget, it will be Christmas Eve in two days' time!"

"..."

After Lin Dong finished speaking, there was a silence on the other end of the phone.

"What's wrong, Xiaoya? Did something happen?"

Seeing that Sun Xiaoya suddenly fell silent, Lin Dong quickly suppressed the smile on his face and asked nervously.

"Mu, I can't go to Minghai for Christmas."

Sun Xiaoya said with a bit of tears in her voice: "I have already asked for leave before, but today the leader suddenly said that I have important work, so I canceled my leave."

Hearing Sun Xiaoya's answer, Lin Dong breathed a sigh of relief.

Christmas is not a holiday in China, and it is not a legal holiday, so there is no unified holiday.

Just now Sun Xiaoya suddenly stopped talking, Lin Dong thought something serious happened.

Seeing that it was just because he didn't ask for leave, Lin Dong immediately comforted him: "It's okay, I will go to Rongcheng to find you when the time comes, and we will spend Christmas together in Rongcheng."

"really?"

Hearing this, a smile appeared on Sun Xiaoya's face.

But then, she shook her head and said, "Forget it, you've been very busy recently, I'd better go to Minghai to find you when the New Year's Day is off! Anyway, it's only a week."

During the recent period, the two of them would talk on the phone every now and then, so Sun Xiaoya still knew very well that Lin Dong was very busy during this time.

"It's okay, I still have time to spend Christmas with you." Lin Dong said with a smile.

"No, I just called to let you know, and I'll go there when the New Year's Day is off."

Sun Xiaoya still shook her head and said, "Okay, I still have things to do here, so I'll hang up first!"

After speaking, Sun Xiaoya hung up the phone.

O woman!Always so fond of duplicity.

Listening to the busy tone from the other end of the phone, Lin Dong shook his head helplessly thinking.
