After the separation, I took my whole family to eat delicious food and drink spicy

As for Shopkeeper Zhao, after Yun Che left, he went to the account office to get more than two thousand taels of silver notes and put them in a small box. He took it in his hand and asked his men to drive the carriage to Lijia Village.

When Manager Zhao arrived, Li Xiaoxiao had just returned from the fields. She would go to the shrimp fields from time to time.

When Shopkeeper Zhao, who was waiting in the main hall, saw Li Xiaoxiao coming back, he hurried forward and handed the box to Li Xiaoxiao, "This is the dividend from selling sanitary napkins. Our master asked me to pass it on to you."

Li Xiaoxiao opened the box with a puzzled look on her face. She was surprised to see the banknotes inside. "So much silver?"

Shopkeeper Zhao smiled and said, "This is our dividend for this month. I guess there will be more later. Our master said that the dividend must be delivered to you as soon as possible."

Li Xiaoxiao was happy, but still said, "Actually, there's no need to rush. I have some money in my hand anyway."

Shopkeeper Zhao waved his hand quickly, "Our master specifically instructed that the dividends be settled monthly."

"Will the monthly settlement be too troublesome? In fact, it can be settled on the same settlement page as the chopped pepper fish head. It will be more convenient this way." Li Xiaoxiao said.

"Okay, then I'll listen to Miss Li. I'll tell our master when I get back." Shopkeeper Zhao replied with a smile.

Li Xiaoxiao felt very happy after hearing this. She took the box and said, "Thank you, Manager Zhao."

After giving out the dividends, Shopkeeper Zhao hurried back to Xiangmanlou. Li Xiaoxiao took the box and went to her room.

She counted the silver notes in the box and found that there were actually two thousand five hundred taels!

This amount of money needs to be put away properly.

So she hid the banknotes in a secret compartment under the bed, which was a place Li Xiaoxiao used to store banknotes. Together with the more than two thousand taels today, there were already about three thousand taels of banknotes in it. For an ordinary family, this was a huge sum of money, but now Li Xiaoxiao was used to seeing so much silver, because she believed that she would have more silver in the future.

Now in Lijia Village, under the leadership of Li Xiaoxiao, more and more people are raising crayfish, and life in the village is getting better and better.

At Li Xiaoxiao's suggestion, a crayfish breeding cooperative was established in the village. Li Xiaoxiao asked Bai Dong to be the head of the cooperative. The crayfish raised by the villagers were purchased by the cooperative at a unified price and then sold to Xiangmanlou. Xiangmanlou then transported the collected crayfish to branches across the country. In this way, the cooperative could also have a certain income, and this income was naturally divided between Li Xiaoxiao and Bai Dong on a 50-50 basis.

Because of the cooperative, the villagers are happy and at ease, willing to sell their crayfish directly to Li Xiaoxiao, saving them the trouble of selling them. Of course, some people, seeking profit and selling at a high price, take their farmed crayfish directly to other restaurants in town or to the market, but sales are not very good. In the end, they all take them to the cooperative founded by Li Xiaoxiao and sell them.

That day, Li Xiaoxiao was settling accounts at home when Bai Dong suddenly came to her with an anxious look on his face.

"Xiaoxiao, something bad has happened. Our crayfish are sick!" said Bai Dong.

Li Xiaoxiao was shocked and hurriedly followed him to the shrimp farm to check.

I saw black spots on the bodies of many crayfish, and they were not as active as before.

Li Xiaoxiao frowned, realizing that this was a serious disease, which would probably cause huge losses if not treated in time.

After some investigation, Li Xiaoxiao found that crayfish from other farmers also showed the same symptoms.

"Uncle, I remember that your town is close to the sea. I believe there should be someone in the town who has a deeper understanding of aquatic products such as fish and shrimp?" Li Xiaoxiao tried to ask Bai Jing.

"Yes, there is an old man in our village who knows a lot about fish and shrimps. He makes a living by fishing. Xiaoxiao, why are you asking this?" Bai Jing was puzzled.

"Uncle, please drive the ox cart and ask him to come over to take a look at our crayfish and see if you can figure out what the problem is." Li Xiaoxiao explained.

Bai Jing slapped his head and said, "You are really quick-witted. I will go home and harness the ox cart now." After saying this, Bai Jing ran away.

At this time, Bai Dong and Bai Shi, who heard the news, also rushed to the shrimp farm. Seeing the black patch of crayfish in the shrimp farm, Bai Shi was so anxious that his eyes turned red. Many villagers who raised crayfish also rushed to Li Xiaoxiao's shrimp farm.

"Xiaoxiao, what should we do? These crayfish are in this condition. Can we still sell them?" Aunt Zhang, who raises crayfish with Li Xiaoxiao in the village, asked.

When the others heard Aunt Zhang speak, they all nodded in agreement. Uncle Li, who was standing nearby, saw everyone gathered around Li Xiaoxiao and asked, "What are you all doing here? Spread out, let's all work together to figure this out!"

Seeing that Uncle Li had helped him out, Li Xiaoxiao nodded gratefully and said to him in a soothing voice, "Don't worry, everyone. I've asked my uncle to find someone knowledgeable to help. If you have nothing to do, you can wait here. If you need to do something, go ahead and do it. I'll call you when the person arrives."

After hearing what Li Xiaoxiao said, everyone stopped talking, found a place to sit on the edge of the field, and waited there.

At noon, Bai Jing, who had been rushing for a long time, finally arrived at the shrimp farm with an old man.

The old man jumped off the cart, and Li Xiaoxiao walked over to give him a brief introduction before taking him to the shrimp farm. The old man carefully observed the crayfish and told them the disease might be caused by water pollution. He suggested replacing some of the pond water and using some herbal remedies.

Li Xiaoxiao immediately organized the villagers to take action and treat the crayfish according to the old man's method.

At noon, Li Xiaoxiao invited the old man to have lunch at his home and gave him one or two taels of silver as a reward. The old man refused to take it, so Li Xiaoxiao stuffed the money directly into his pocket. Bai Dong and Bai Jing, who were standing next to him, also persuaded him, "Uncle Zhang, just take it. This is what you deserve. If it weren't for you, the crayfish in the village would have suffered heavy losses."

After hearing what the two brothers said, the old man Uncle Zhang no longer refused.

After lunch, Li Xiaoxiao asked Bai Jing to drive the ox cart to take Uncle Zhang to the ferry in town.

After a few days, the crayfish's condition was gradually brought under control, the black spots disappeared, and its vitality was restored a lot.

The villagers were filled with gratitude and praised Li Xiaoxiao's resourcefulness. Li Xiaoxiao modestly said that this was the result of everyone's joint efforts. After this incident, Li Xiaoxiao was even more determined to lead the villagers in developing crayfish farming.

This crisis made Li Xiaoxiao deeply realize that the breeding industry should not only focus on output, but also pay attention to quality and environmental protection.
