1983 Small Island, Starting From a Large Farmer

Chapter 379 I am a tiger

 The day came to go to sea.

 Zhou Xiaoying really couldn't bear to leave Xiao Tutu. This child has never left his parents since he was born.

At the thought of being away for half a month, Zhou Xiaoying's heart was bleeding, as if someone was cutting her with a knife.

She frowned and asked Li Duoyu: "Aniang is going to do confinement care for her now, and she also has to take care of Yuanyuan. Are you busy enough?"

Li Duoyu said: "No problem, my brother-in-law is here too, and Haoran and Zhang Lin will also play with little Tutu during the summer vacation."

 “But they are still children.”

Zhou Xiaoying tried to ask: "How about we take Xiao Tutu with us."

Li Duoyu's face changed on the spot: "Comrade Zhou Xiaoying, can you please be normal? You don't even have to think about this."

Li Duoyu knows better than anyone how dangerous the outside world is.

 As long as you go to a crowded place, anyone with jewelry, gold chains, or high-end watches will immediately be stared at by three hands.

And in this era, there are not only three hands, but also human traffickers who specialize in abducting women and children, and there are all kinds of ruthless people.

I don’t know how many people there are. In places like train stations and bus stations, if you are careless, your wife and children may be separated.

Even a reborn person like Li Duoyu is quite afraid of that kind of place.

In later generations, many writers sang about the simplicity and kindness of that era, but for Li Duoyu, they all wrote blindly. The years after the opening up were the most chaotic years.

Li Duoyu changed into **** clothes and looked like a leader. He was also carrying a Shanghai brand briefcase in his hand.

Zhou Xiaoying wanted to go out wearing rags, but was stopped by Li Duoyu.

These days, the poorer you are, the more others will bully you and steal from you.

 Poor people look down on the poor more than the rich. The lower they are, the more they like to make things difficult for each other.

The dress is more important than the saddle. As long as you look like a leader, not only will the staff talk down to you, but pickpockets will also avoid you because they don’t want to cause trouble.

Li Shuguang saw what Li Duoyu and Zhou Xiaoying were wearing and said, "If you were dressed like this, if you didn't know, I would have thought you were going out for a meeting."

Li Duoyu smiled and said, "That's right, I'm just going to a meeting."

In the days before going out, Zhou Xiaoying prepared everything little Tutu needed. Not only were all the diapers washed, she also went to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought several small toys and a can of malted milk for Tutu. .

At the dock, Zhou Xiaoying gave Chen Huiying instructions.

“Aniang, if Tutu is too noisy and wants to find his mother, just give him some malted milk and he will be quiet.”

“Don’t give him candy, he will choke. Little Tutu likes to listen to stories when he sleeps.”

“And don’t tell him the story of Aunt Tiger, he is very afraid of it.”

Chen Huiying said impatiently: "I know, I have taken a lot of this child with me. Your third uncle and uncle's fishing boats have already set off for a while, so you should hurry up and follow."

Zhou Xiaoying thought for a while and then said: "By the way, there are a lot of mosquitoes at night in summer. Remember to catch them before going to bed."

Chen Huiying, who was a little disgusted, hugged little Tutu, turned around and left: "Tutu, let's go, grandma will take you to play in the square."

 “Okay, let’s go play.”

 When the ship leaves the dock.

Zhou Xiaoying stared in the direction of home, her eyes instantly turning red.

When Li Duoyu's fishing boat arrived at Qingkou Pier, he happened to find the fishing boat of his third uncle and his uncle filling up with ice.

Fishing in summer will incur an additional cost, which is ice money.

 If there is no ice in summer, swimming crabs caught out of water will die within an hour or two, and if left for too long, they will smell of ammonia.

 The main reason is that crab meat is easy to deteriorate. Once it dies, it will breed a large number of bacteria. Under normal circumstances, people at the beach will not eat dead crabs.

Especially if it is more than five hours old, it is very easy to have diarrhea after eating. People with bad gastrointestinal problems may even die.

The purchase price of dead crabs is very cheap, and no one necessarily wants a dime, because they can only be used to pickle salty crabs.

 But if there are ice cubes, it can last for at least thirteen or four hours. If there is a living water tank and ice cubes, the survival time will be even longer. One or two days may not be a problem.

 After adding ice cubes.

 The fleet set off. Although Li Duoyu's fishing boat could go very fast, it still maintained a slow speed.

 After all, driving slower can save fuel.

 But it is quite time-consuming. It is estimated that it will take a day and a half to drive to the Zhoushan Islands.

This is Zhou Xiaoying's first time to go fishing on a boat. Even now, women are not allowed to go fishing together on the boat.

 But this time was a special case. She was just on the boat casually, not officially. Besides, she was not on a big ship. She could treat this fishing boat as a yacht.

 But it’s best to hide in the cab and don’t let old uncles like the second uncle and the first uncle find out, otherwise they will gossip.

 The more embarrassing person is Li Shuguang.

As the "second mate" of this fishing boat, he is also responsible for driving the boat, but they are a husband and wife, so when it comes to sleeping at night.

 He could no longer squeeze in the driver's cab with Li Duoyu, and could only sleep on the deck of the ship.

 Fortunately it is very hot in summer. It’s also very cool sleeping on the deck.

 The fleet traveled at sea for about a day and a half and finally arrived at the waters of Zhoushan Islands.

 As soon as the ship approached.

The fish finder sounded an alarm. Li Duoyu looked at the fish finder and saw that all the red dots were on the sea surface.

Li Shuguang looked at the screen and asked, "Is this a jellyfish?"

Li Shuguang came to the side of the boat and took a look. The sea surface seemed to be normal, and there was no shadow of jellyfish at all.

Immediately afterwards, Li Shuguang took a large tide net and stretched it directly into the sea. After a while, the net became very heavy.

Li Shuguang lifted it up and caught two jellyfish at once.

 Zhou Xiaoying, who was lying on the window, was stunned.

 “Is it so easy to catch jellyfish?”

Li Duoyu said: "There are a lot of these things in the sea, at least hundreds of thousands of them around here."

“Duoyu, you are always in the cab, how do you know?”

“Hey, don’t underestimate the power of science, come over here and I’ll show you a big treasure.”

Zhou Xiaoying frowned and told her directly that she always felt that the big treasure in Li Duoyu's mouth was a bit inappropriate.

After she walked over, Li Duoyu hugged her over and put her on his lap.

 “You are going to die, my cousin is still on the boat.”

　　“You are thinking wrongly, and you still blame me”

 The next second, Li Duoyu felt a sharp pain in his thigh:

“Why have you become so fond of **** people recently, and you always screw in the same place.”

 “Who asked you to act like a hooligan?”

“I’m serious, okay? Let me tell you, this thing is called a fish finder, and it uses the principle of sonar.”

 “What is sonar?”

 After hearing this, Li Duoyu suddenly realized that in this era, everyone's means of obtaining knowledge are very limited.

Even a Chinese teacher like her doesn’t know about “sonar”. Li Duoyu explained:

“It’s just the sound of dolphins. When we speak, there will be an echo. This device passes through it.”

“Anyway, you don’t have to worry about it so much. Just understand that once there are black spots on the screen, there will be fish.”

Zhou Xiaoying frowned, pointed at the screen and said, "Then below, there are all black dots. Are there fish there too?"

Li Duoyu took a closer look, thought for a while, and said excitedly: "This may not be a fish, but a swimming crab."

 “How do you know that thing is a swimming crab?”

 Li Duoyu suddenly found that he had no patience to explain to Zhou Xiaoying, but he still said:

“This should be determined based on the actual situation. We must learn to judge the terrain and geology through a fish finder, and then combine it with the current fishing season.”

 “It’s so complicated.”

 “You think it’s so easy to be the boss of the ship?”

Zhou Xiaoying smiled and said: "I didn't expect you to be quite good. I always thought you were just trying to catch fish by luck."

Li Duoyu twitched the corner of his mouth, then picked up the walkie-talkie and shouted: [Minrong 031, the water is forty meters deep, there may be swimming crabs, the bottom is sandy, you can set the net. "

The intercom came with a hissing sound.

　　【Minrong 031, received, ready to weight the trawl and lower the bottom trawl. 】

 Zhou Xiaoying stared at the intercom with wide eyes: "It sounded like the voice of my third uncle just now."

 “That’s right, it’s Uncle San.”

 “Is this your phone?”

 “Absolutely, just think of it as a short-distance phone call.”

“Duoyu, are you impatient with me? There’s something wrong with your attitude.”

"How is it possible? I am always very respectful and patient with you. I often wait until you come before I dare to take off my armor."

Seeing that Zhou Xiaoying was about to unscrew it again, Li Duoyu grinned and said, "Do you want to know how the walkie-talkie works?"

 Zhou Xiaoying nodded.

Li Duoyu chuckled and said, "I don't understand it at all."

 “Are you going to die?”

"Just twist it with your hands, don't bite with your mouth, you are a dog."

"You are a rat and a dog, I am a tiger."
