1983 Small Island, Starting From a Large Farmer

Chapter 199 The fish that runs away is the biggest one

 After selling out the fish at Li Duoyu Qingkou Wharf.

The bosses of nearby boats gathered around and asked for advice on how to fish in the open sea.

 “Why is this grouper still alive?”

“What kind of fishing rod is so powerful? It can catch mackerel weighing more than 40 kilograms.”

Many of these boats are single trawlers, which generally can only fish on the sandy bottom. Fast-swimming mackerel are not easy to catch with a single tugboat, so a double tugboat is required to float the net.

As for the large groupers, they are all in deep-sea reefs, and trawlers have no way to do anything about them. If they engage in longline fishing, they may even lose the longline.

 But when the bosses of these boats learned that Li Duoyu’s fishing rods were all imported, each rod cost nearly a thousand yuan.

They have given up the idea of ​​fishing in the open sea. For them, the investment is too big and the risk factor is high. If the technology is not good and the rod explodes, their mentality will probably explode.

 After receiving the money, Li Duoyu gave Li Shuguang 30% of the proceeds from the offshore fishing trip, 125 yuan, on the spot.

Li Shuguang, who got the money, didn't count it and just put it in his pocket.

Li Duoyu asked: "Don't you count."

 “There’s no need to count, there’s nothing to count.”

 “I’m worried, I gave you too much.”

"Hahaha."

 Everyone who heard this couldn't help laughing.

 Li Shuguang felt that the most correct thing he did this year was to come to Qingkou Pier to pick up Li Duoyu who had returned from the island country. "Let's go, I'm treating you today."

Shitou asked: "Where should we go to eat? Do you want to go to the town?"

Li Duoyu said: "No, let's go to Lao Chen's. The taste is very good and the price is very cheap. If you tell me your name, you might get a discount."

Li Shuguang nodded and said: "As Duoyu has said, I also think Lao Chen's house is good."

 “You go and eat first, and I’ll go to the toilet.”

Zhang Jinsha on the side was also very envious, why didn't he have such a good relative?

Although he has indeed saved a lot of money by cultivating clams and razor clams over the years, these things are too easy to maintain.

Lianjiang County has raised a lot of people in the past two years, and the market is so big. If there are more people raised, the profits will naturally disappear.

At this time last year, he could still earn more than 200 yuan a month, but this year it has dropped to 150 yuan.

 Money is getting harder and harder to make.

With the exception of Li Duoyu, when it was difficult for others to make money, he was able to make a lot of money.

Even if he gives 30% of the money he earned today to his eldest cousin, he would have earned a year's salary of many people on the island in one trip. It's really embarrassing to think about it.

I heard that he contracted a lot of land during this period and spent a lot of money to hire people to dig earthen ponds. It felt like he was doing something big again.

 Zhang Jinsha said: “I also went to the toilet.”

While Li Duoyu was going to the public restroom on the pier, Zhang Jinsha followed him, squatted in the pit next to him, and asked, "Would you like one?"

 “Okay, let’s have one.”

The smell of ammonia in the public restroom at the pier is very strong. If you don’t smoke two cigarettes, you will feel like you will be smoked to death.

Zhang Jinsha held a cigarette in his mouth: "Duoyu, what are you going to raise in the earthen pond you dug in our village?"

 Li Duoyu replied: "The eel farmer."

 “Moray eel?”

Li Duoyu replied: "It's not a sea eel, it's a freshwater eel."

“Isn’t it said that freshwater eels cannot be raised? It seems that the eel fry are unwilling to eat and will all die after being raised for a few days.”

Li Duoyu replied: "It is indeed difficult to raise eels, but there is still a way."

"real?"

Zhang Jinsha changed his words and said: "Director Li, you have to take the lead. You can't just become rich and ignore everyone."

 Li Duoyu took a puff of cigarette: "Lao Sha, you don't want to raise eels too, do you?"

  “I have this plan.”

Zhang Jinsha said seriously: "On our island, you are the only one who has really seen the world. I think I can definitely make money by investing with you. Let me first ask how much it will cost to invest in your eel farming."

Li Duoyu thought for a while and said, "The initial investment is about 20,000 yuan, and the later maintenance and equipment are about 20,000 yuan."

 Zhang Jinsha smiled awkwardly.

 He thought it would be the same as kelp, and it would be enough to invest a few thousand yuan, but unexpectedly it turned out to be tens of thousands.

Li Duoyu continued: "But I have equipment for grilling eels in my budget. If you really want to keep it, you don't need to buy this equipment. I can rent it to you."

Zhang Jinsha was very helpless. Even if he didn't get cheated when investing in abalone, he still couldn't afford it with his thousands of yuan.

“Director Li, can’t you follow the example of those two Hong Kong Islanders and get some stocks and let me invest a little bit?”

After Zhang Jinsha’s reminder, Li Duoyu felt that it was quite reasonable, but when it came to the divided things, the accounts must be made public.

 In this way, everyone in the village will know how much wealth he has, which is not very good.

 “I have no plans for now, let’s talk about it later.”

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Jinsha knew that there was no chance: "Then I will slowly save money, but can you teach me the techniques of raising eels first?"

“It’s okay to teach you, but raising eels is quite difficult. If you really want to learn, I suggest you start by digging an earthen pond, and you can come over to help in the next two days.”

 “Can I help you dig a pond and give you a salary?”

 “What are you thinking about? The apprentice still wants to receive a salary.”

Zhang Jinsha's mouth twitched: "Damn, I've helped you make so much money today, and you still want to trick me into digging a pond for you for free. You think so." Li Duoyu smiled: "Suffering a loss is a blessing. ah."

 “Then why don’t you suffer a little loss?”

Zhang Jinsha sighed: "Director Li, can't you serve the people and tell us about eel farming technology for free?"

Li Duoyu smiled and said: "I have only half a bucket of water myself. I don't even know if I can make a living. I'm still giving you lectures. By then, if everyone is dead, my house may be demolished by you."

 “No, I promise you.”

 “What guarantee do you have?”

 Zhang Jinsha choked. In fact, he didn’t take off his pants. He just squatted there and smoked. As a result, his legs were numb from squatting for too long.

Li Duoyu can’t get up yet.

"Why have you been squatting for so long? If you don't get up again, Shitou and the others will probably finish all the food."

Li Duoyu looked helpless: "I thought so too. I seem to have eaten too much cakes recently and got angry and constipated."

Zhang Jinsha said seriously: "If you are often constipated, you can come to me. I have a secret recipe passed down from my ancestors to treat constipation."

When Zhang Jinsha said this, Li Duoyu remembered that after returning from the island country in his previous life, he often suffered from constipation and even hemorrhoids due to changes in his diet.

 After the operation, it has been repeated again and again.

 In the end, it was Zhang Jinsha’s ancestral secret recipe that cured him.

“Okay, when the time comes, I will trade my eel farming technology with you for this ancestral secret recipe.”

Zhang Jinsha's forehead was covered with black lines. He found that Li Duoyu was like an iron rooster. He really refused to let anyone take advantage of him.

"I'll leave first. You squat slowly and I'll leave you two cigarettes."

 Li Duoyu was also choked by the smell of ammonia, and suddenly wanted to build a new house and build a bathroom where he could take a bath and shower.

After Li Duoyu came out, he washed his hands at the dock for a long time and sniffed his clothes to make sure there was no smell.

　That's when I went to Lao Chen's shop.

 While he was squatting on the tub for a while, there were already more than a dozen empty wine bottles on the table.

Li Shuguang, Shitou, and Chen Wenchao were doing wine punching.

What Li Duoyu didn't expect was that Chen Xiaoyun, the daughter of the old Chen family, was also helping in the store today, and she happened to come out with a plate of fried snails.

 “The snails are fried.”

 Chen Xiaoyun looked excited when she saw Li Duoyu: "Brother Duoyu, long time no see."

 “Long time no see, you seem to be beautiful again.”

Chen Xiaoyun grinned and said, "Did you train at our school during the summer vacation? That day you took a car to visit the island country. I said hello to you, did you see me?"

 Li Duoyu nodded.

“I saw it, but there were too many people, so I couldn’t talk to you.”

 Chen Xiaoyun chuckled: "Brother Duoyu, you are really amazing. I heard from my classmates that those who can go for inspection are elites from all walks of life."

 “I’m just lucky.”

“You are obviously good at it, but according to my father, you are already the village chief now.”

Li Duoyu nodded and looked at Xiaoyun briefly. Unexpectedly, after only three months, this girl seemed to have grown a little more.

 Sure enough, after a girl reaches a certain age, her changes will become very big.

In junior high school, Li Duoyu really didn’t have any feelings for Zhou Xiaoying. She still had short hair and acted like a tomboy.

 Applicable after graduating from technical secondary school.

 In the two years since he came back to teach, he was almost the same age as Xiaoyun now. His whole person suddenly changed a lot, which made him a little overwhelmed.

 Lao Chen in the kitchen, seeing his daughter's nymphomaniacal behavior, urged: "Stop chatting and come over quickly to serve the food."

"right away."

Stone on the side saw Li Duoyu chatting so happily with the daughter of the old Chen family, and his eyes almost burst with envy.

 With the daughter of Old Chen's family known for her beauty, she's a college student, so there's definitely a gap between her and them.

“Damn it, have you noticed that Brother Yu seems to be surrounded by beautiful women, and his wife is the most beautiful girl in our village. What kind of incense did this guy burn in his last life?”

“Even Brother Chao has a partner, I’m the only one still single.”

Zhang Jinsha certainly knows the reason. Why are the women around rich people and leaders not beautiful?

Li Shuguang, who was a little bit taller, shouted: "Duoyu, come and drink two bottles of beer too."

Li Duoyu smiled and said, "You're already drunk. If I drink again, who will drive the boat?"

 Li Shuguang burped and said: "Of course I'll drive. Let's drive back to the fishing spot and catch all those **** sharks and dolphins."

 “I think it’s okay too.”

Shitou echoed: "Brother Yu, let me tell you, the big mackerel I ran away today might weigh a hundred pounds."

Li Duoyu nodded seriously: "It's really possible."

Zhang Jinsha, who was smoking next to him, couldn't help complaining: "I haven't caught anything yet, so what's the point of talking so much."

Li Duoyu couldn't help but smile. He felt that Shitou might become a senior fisherman in the future.

After all, fishing guys have one thing in common.

That is, the fish that runs away is the biggest.

 Asking for monthly recommendation votes.
