Best Son-in-law

With the help of everyone, Li Fan fished out all the water snakes in the fish pond. These water snakes had different shapes, and some of them were venomous. They also took care of them, and piles of them were put up with nets. , water snakes and venomous snakes were packed separately, and the venomous snakes' fangs were also pulled out with pliers.

"Thank you everyone, Li Fan breathed a sigh of relief and thanked everyone.

"For fellow villagers, it's all trivial matters." Everyone didn't take it to heart at all. They worked along for the whole afternoon, and they also knew some of Li Fan's thoughts.

"Fan Zi, you have a very bold idea, raising water snakes." Uncle Sun had a dry smoke in his mouth and looked at the water snakes in the net in a trance.

"Water snakes are all treasures. Why can't we raise them? Our village is poor now, so we have to try more ways to make money. If we don't try, there is no way out. We can't just think about failure. We failed in the past. Now we follow the steps step by step. If you are neither arrogant nor impetuous, you will definitely not fail." Li Fan said, wiping the sweat from his forehead.

"Okay, everyone, I'll treat you to dinner tonight." Li Fan couldn't let the folks down, after all, they wasted an entire afternoon helping him.

After hearing this, several villagers wanted to refuse, but Old Uncle Sun said first: "I'm just waiting for you to say this. They all say that the food in your restaurant is delicious. Do you want us to eat out today?"

"Okay, there will be fewer guests later, and I will cook for everyone myself." Li Fan said with a smile.

At this moment, Uncle Six and Uncle Zhao, as well as Wang Erxi's father, Uncle Wang, all arrived. They were still thinking about the eel fry in their fish ponds.

Originally, they all went to the ground, but they were forced to come over.

"How's it going? Fanzi? How much have we lost?" Uncle Liu came over in a hurry. In a way, these eels were his wealth and life, and there was no room for loss.

"You didn't lose much. The main reason is that Fanzi's fish pond was eaten by a lot of eels." Old Uncle Sun said.

"How much did we lose?" Uncle Six looked surprised.

"It's just that the water snakes in the water don't like to eat your eels." Uncle Sun explained again.

After hearing this, Uncle Six and the others looked at each other. This was the first time they heard such a statement.

"It's not good if Fanzi loses it." Uncle Liu came to his senses after a while and said quickly.

"I haven't lost much. I raised so many, how much can I let them eat? It's okay. This time is a lesson. If it rains and the tide rises, these water snakes will be washed over. There is no way. We will know next time. I just tried to use some fine nets to stop them, so they can't get in again. In fact, this can be considered a good thing, at least it gave us a wake-up call." Li Fan said with a smile.

Later, Uncle Liu, Uncle Zhao, and Uncle Wang went to their fish ponds to take a look and found that not many eels had been lost in the fish ponds, so they felt relieved.

"You don't know yet, right? All the water snakes went to Fanzi just now, but Fanzi asked everyone to help you guys catch the water snakes first." Old Uncle Sun added.

This sentence moved Uncle Liu, Uncle Zhao, and Uncle Wang deeply.

"Then all the water snakes have been caught now, right?" Uncle Six felt guilty and quickly asked one more question.

"It's caught, it's caught." Uncle Sun said quickly.

"That's good, kill all these beasts, and let's eat the snake meat." Uncle Six said bitterly. He was shocked today. He was immediately shocked when he heard that the eels were eaten by water snakes. Now that I have calmed down, I want to deal with all these water snakes.

"No, I just said, this is not a bad thing." Li Fan said with a smile.

"What? Isn't this a bad thing? Fan Zi, you won't be so angry, right?" Uncle Zhao couldn't help but say.

"No, I just think that these water snakes can also be used for breeding. They are full of treasures." Li Fan said with a smile.

Uncle Zhao and others were stunned when they heard this. Soon, Uncle Six came to his senses and understood what Li Fan meant: "You mean to raise water snakes in the future? Can these water snakes be raised like eels?"

"Yes, that's what it means. Yes, we have eaten a lot of eels, but aren't there more water snakes that have been washed over? I plan to go to the water to catch some more tomorrow and feed them with eel fish feed. When the time comes to breed well, you can make a lot of money," Li Fan said.

"It rained heavily the day before yesterday, and these water snakes must have been washed over." Uncle Sun added next to him.

"Fanzi, you have an idea. This snake is indeed a treasure. The gallbladder can be used as medicine, the snake meat is a great tonic, and the snake skin is also useful. It can also be used to make wine. It has many uses. It is better than eels. Eels Fish can only be eaten in stew." After hearing this, Uncle Six couldn't help but think about it carefully.

Only then did Uncle Zhao and Old Uncle Wang figure it out.

"Okay, let's do some preventive work in the future and let people take a look at this place. We didn't lose much today, but we found more ways. It's not a bad thing, it's a good thing." Uncle Liu said.

"Okay, that's it for today. Everyone, help pick up these snakes, and then I'll treat everyone to dinner." Li Fan said.

At this time, Li Fan responded to his call, and everyone helped Li Fan place the water snakes, which took a lot of effort.

After doing this, Li Fan really took everyone to the Pingfan Hotel for dinner.

Since there were still guests sitting in the front hall, they could only set up a table in the yard and have a big meal. This meal was cooked by Li Fan himself.

Wang Erxi had been working in the backyard for a day and was so tired that he couldn't straighten his back.

When he saw Uncle Wang coming, he asked, "How's it going?"

"It's okay. It was just a group of water snakes that ate some eels. They didn't eat much of our family. They mainly ate Li Fan's eels." Old Uncle Wang explained.

"Dad, what did you say? Is it okay to eat the eels from Fanzi's house?" Wang Erxi was a little anxious.

"That's not what I meant. Although we ate a lot of eels, we caught a lot of water snakes. Did we lose a lot by going back and forth?" Old Uncle Wang said helplessly.

"What? Can you catch some water snakes to compare with the eels? How much does a pound of eels cost, and how much does a pound of water snakes cost? You don't know?" Wang Erxi didn't think about it.

"What don't I know? What do you know? Eels are expensive, but they can be stewed and eaten. This snake is different. It is full of treasures. The snake meat can be eaten, and the snake gall can also be used for medicine. It can also Snake wine, don’t you know whether it’s worth it or not? This time I caught more water snakes, and you all know where these snakes came from. They were brought by the rain the day before yesterday. Go back and catch some more, Li Fan If you use fish feed to cultivate it yourself, how can it be worse than eels? Can you lose money?" Old Uncle Wang explained to Wang Erxi carefully.

After hearing this, Wang Erxi's eyes suddenly lit up: "Do you mean to start another water snake breeding?"

"You just realize it now? No wonder you don't have the brains to get rich." Old Uncle Wang said helplessly.

"Hey, I didn't expect it to be just this level. Hey, this is really good. There are more dishes in the kitchen, and I can sell some in the town. This snake can also be used as health supplements and can also be used to brew wine. It's really cool. They are all treasures." Wang Erxi said with a smile.

At this time, Li Fan was cooking in the kitchen and began to think about it again. He looked at the guests in the hotel in a trance.

"What's wrong, Li Fan, what are you thinking about again?" Zhou Xiaoman heard about the water snake in Laoshan Lake and admired some of Li Fan's ideas. Now that he saw Li Fan thinking about it again, he couldn't help but curious to ask him. I don't think I have any ideas anymore.

"Hey, Sister Xiaoman, you came just in time. What do tourists value most when traveling now?" Li Fan asked quickly when he saw Zhou Xiaoman coming.

"What do you value?" Zhou Xiaoman looked confused: "Isn't it just to have fun? Eat well, drink well, sleep well, and play well?"

"No, also, now that tourists come to a place, they definitely want to take something back from these places." Li Fan's eyes narrowed.

"Take it back? What do you mean?" Zhou Xiaoman didn't understand what Li Fan meant.

"Don't tourists like to take pictures? They also like to bring back some souvenirs, specialties and the like. We can definitely start from this aspect. We have to ask them to bring back some things, so that the tourists' travel experience can reach full marks. And they can also do voluntary publicity for us through these souvenirs, specialties and the like." Li Fan slapped his thigh and almost jumped.

"Last time I saw someone posting on the forum. If she could get some physical objects or something to take back, it would attract more tourists. This is also a key to the sustainable development of Laoshantun."

"Specialties? Souvenirs? These are all good ideas, but how to implement them specifically?" Zhou Xiaoman's eyes lit up after hearing this.

The development of tourism in Laoshantun can bring endless benefits and directly stimulate the development of Laoshantun.

"Didn't I catch some water snakes? These water snakes can be brewed into wine, and I also raised a batch of wild ginseng, which they can take back and give as gifts. These two projects are the only ones I can start now, no. I have to do it as soon as possible, the long vacation is coming soon." Li Fan is a person who does what he says. As soon as he has an idea in his mind, he immediately implements it.

It is also Li Fan's resolute character that allows him to accurately seize various opportunities.

"Hey, Li Fan, are you leaving now? You haven't eaten yet?" Zhou Xiaoman was speechless when she saw him like this.

"What else are you going to eat? I don't have time to eat. I have to go back and prepare the wild ginseng, snake wine and so on. I will sell them soon." Li Fan waved his hand to Zhou Xiaoman and left without looking back. .

Seeing this scene, Zhou Xiaoman was speechless and could only shake his head helplessly: "Li Fan, you, you are really a person who does great things."

"What's wrong with Fanzi? What's he doing? He's not eating anymore?" Uncle Liu came over and asked.

"He wants to make snake wine and some wild ginseng to make specialties and souvenirs so that tourists can buy them back and do voluntary publicity for our Laoshan Village." Zhou Xiaoman said helplessly.

"Ah? Isn't this Fanzi's brain too amazing? This path is one after another." Uncle Liu said after being stunned for a while.
