[Period farming + rural prosperity] [Scientific aquaculture + seafood exports] [No saintly do-gooding + decisive and ruthless]
Reborn in 1998, Chen Weisi graduates from Tsinghua University's biology department and returns to his village to raise shrimp. The whole village laughs at me for being crazy.
My father slams the table and says my education has drained the family coffers. I point to the tidal flats: "Give me three months. If I can't raise shrimp, I'll go back to Beijing."
At the time, China's aquaculture industry still relies on crude methods. Disease outbreaks are frequent, and foreign capital dominates the market.
Since I've come back, I'm going to make a big move!
[Improve water quality] → Double the yield per acre and astonish every village for miles around.
[Develop feed in-house] → Cut costs in half and crush unscrupulous competitors.
[Breed new varieties] → Break free of reliance on foreign capital and make foreigners beg to buy the patents.
Years later, when a reporter interviews the man known as the "King of Asian Aquaculture," Chen Weisi points to the thriving modern fishing port behind him. "I just wanted everyone in my village to have enough to eat and earn an honest living."
(This novel focuses on technical expertise and rural prosperity. No System, just a protagonist with brains.)
After the author has finished writing, read it yourself. Sentences like "The shrimps are good at talking for themselves" appear once in two chapters. It feels too exaggerated 😂 😂
Five points of praise, it's worth it. I specifically look for new books from you among the books I've read before.
