1983 Small Island, Starting From a Large Farmer

Chapter 478 Pretend to be a ghost

 On a fishing boat.

Cousin Li Shuguang was smoking a cigarette, looking at the piles of unity in the cowhide bag, and couldn't help but said: "It feels like your money is blown by the wind."

Li Duoyu boasted: "I can't help it. I'm handsome and people give me money everywhere."

 “How much do these cost in total?”

 “Ten thousand or so.”

"No wonder you asked us to come together and take so much money at once. If someone finds out, they might just sink you into the sea."

 Next, Li Duoyu gave three unity cards to everyone on the boat who came to help him.

Stone holding the money looked embarrassed: "Brother Yu, I just went with you. I didn't do anything. I don't need to pay so much money."

Zhang Erhu also pushed the money back: "If you have a lot of fish, giving money would be too outrageous. We haven't thanked you properly in the past two years."

Seeing that they didn't want it, Li Duoyu hurriedly said: "Take it quickly. If you don't take it, others will be embarrassed to take it. Just like my cousin, he just complained that I gave him less."

"It's not intentional. I can only say that I just let nature take its course. Let's just do it like this for now. If the second sister-in-law is at Haixin Eel Factory, it will be easier for him to understand her situation."

It was during that special period that he, an illegal worker, had the opportunity to come into contact with the real island cuisine.

After hearing this, everyone laughed out loud. After handing out the money, Li Duoyu solemnly thanked everyone.

Li Duoyu thought for a while and affirmed: "It should be no problem to cure the eel."

The uncle sighed with emotion: "I have worked hard fishing for so many years, and the money I have earned is not as much as what you have earned from this one business."

Li Duoyu rolled his eyes and said, "Then do you want it? If not, I won't send it to you."

Li Duoyu knows very well that the reason why nouveau riche comes is because money comes too quickly, and even people with whom they have a good relationship will cause discomfort and jealousy in others.

But what really moved Li Duoyu's heart was the small stream of mountain spring water behind the eel factory. It is no exaggeration to say that it is definitely mineral water grade.

 Whenever the other party provides enough benefits, it is really difficult for human nature to withstand the test.

 For Li Duoyu, these people on the boat are people who really help him in times of crisis.

Li Duoyu was a little surprised. He didn't expect that his uncle would be so ruthless, but it was right to think about it. The fishery captain back then could not stand up if he was not ruthless.

As long as it is not a super typhoon, this factory can probably withstand it. However, Li Duoyu's bamboo eel factory will be a bit uncertain if it encounters a big typhoon.

"That's good."

At the Japanese restaurant where he worked, the chef was poached. During that time, the owner of the restaurant almost became autistic.

 The most taboo thing in doing business is to trust your subordinates and partners too much. If he doesn't betray you now, it doesn't mean that he will always be loyal to you in the future.

The uncle was surprised and said: "There is still such a rule."

Just now he deliberately walked around the eel factory. The entire eel factory was very well built, and all were made of the best materials.

Li Duoyu smiled and said: "Uncle, have you ever heard of such a story? During the war, the enemy agent was already found out, but he was not killed. Instead, he was deliberately kept."

If you want to raise eels well, you must first have good water. But after Li Duoyu inspected the eel factory, he found that the cause of the collective accident of the eel fry was also the mountain spring water.

The uncle suddenly realized: "Did you do this on purpose?"

When there was no one in the cab, the uncle suddenly said seriously: "Xiuhua, you've become so rebellious. If you didn't earn this money, why don't you just stop helping and let their eel factory close down? She should be allowed to Learn a lesson."

 In fact, when he went to Haixin Eel Factory this time, Li Duoyu only told everyone that he needed everyone's help to boost his momentum. Unexpectedly, these people almost didn't ask for specific reasons and agreed on the spot.

 “Grass, of course.”

As long as a person walks on the right path, there will naturally be many friends who sincerely want to help him.

Li Shuguang glared and said: "I'll go, Duoyu, please don't slander me, okay? Your reputation has been ruined. I don't like money that much."

 The suitable temperature range for eel farming is between 18°C ​​and 25°C. Too low a temperature will cause eels to lose appetite, slow growth, decrease resistance, and make eels susceptible to illness.

 Maybe it was because of the underground water. The water was extremely cold. When Li Duoyu put his hands into the breeding pond, his hands were a little cold.

"I didn't earn this money." Even when facing his uncle, Li Duoyu didn't tell the truth: "My eel breeding technology was given by others. According to the original agreement, even if I help people treat eels, the money will I can only get a small part."

 Li Duoyu nodded.

Li Duoyu is not very educated, but the gap between these two lives finally made him understand the meaning of the saying "Those who have gained the right will get more help, and those who have lost the right will have less help".

The uncle came over and said with some worry: "The man named Mr. Zhang seems to have a good background. After receiving so much money, can you guarantee that their eels will be cured?"

Li Shuguang thought for a while and said: "That's right. You can't lose the big for the small. It's better to make more money by cultivating eels."

"That's not possible. The most important thing when doing business and discussing cooperation is integrity. There is no airtight wall in this world. If that person finds out, he might cooperate with others."

“I really want to thank you all this time. However, since everyone has received money, I have to say one thing. We will not only make one trip, but we may have to trouble you two or three more times.”

 If you use this kind of water to cultivate eels, you can get twice the result with half the effort.

 That's how it is. When everyone learns that Li Duoyu didn't earn all the money himself, they will feel an inexplicable sense of relief.

Looking at the Haixin Eel Factory getting further and further away, Li Duoyu started talking to Xiao Jiujiu. The location of this eel factory is really great. It feels like the best environment for raising eels.

Li Shuguang frowned when he heard this and said: "Duoyu, if you don't tell me, no one will know. You can keep the money for yourself."

 And in the cab.

 Actually, Li Duoyu was quite happy after his second sister-in-law was poached. Fortunately, it was her who was poached and not someone else.

But many times, human nature is also the least able to withstand the test. The other party failed not to succeed, not because we are so good, but also because the other party offered the wrong price.

And here they happen to be in a place with a big temperature difference between morning and night. It is sometimes cold and sometimes hot. It is absolutely torture for the eel fry.

 In fact, as a school teacher and a breeding technician at Ludao Research Institute, Zhang Xuejin’s breeding skills are not bad.

 On the contrary, he is better than him in some aspects, but he knows too little about eels and treats them as ordinary fish.

As a result, they made many fatal mistakes. First of all, if the water temperature was not controlled well, they had to reduce feeding as much as possible. However, they still fed as usual.

The eels don't eat, which leads to the deterioration of the water quality. The water in their breeding pond looks very beautiful, but it has a fishy smell, which is probably caused by the rotting red worms.

 While observing their eel factory, Li Duoyu also discovered many problems.

 Without the guidance of an expert, every step they take will be extremely difficult.

At the Haixin eel factory just now, Li Duoyu did not give them the best plan. If Li Duoyu was the person in charge of the eel factory, he would not give them the best solution.

There is a high probability that this entire batch of eel fry will be disposed of. After all, eel fry are cheap now. If they are all replaced, it will not cost more than 10,000 yuan. However, since they want to treat these eels, they should simply treat them. As a competitor, Li Duoyu will not tell them that even after being cured, these eel fry will be weak and sick in the future.

 Before seeing their eel factory, Li Duoyu didn’t want to deal with the Haixin eel factory at all.

 But ever since he saw it, Li Duoyu wanted them to close down quickly. When the time came, it would be best to sell the eel factory to him at a cheap price.

In this way, he can make a lot of money for free. When the time comes, he will use it to cultivate eels here, shrimps there in Qixing Bay, and blue crabs and kelp on the island.

 Only when you reach that scale can you be qualified to be called a large farmer.

After Li Duoyu returned home, he immediately gave Zhou Xiaoying the money he earned to manage. However, giving her so much money suddenly shut down her brain.

 Having been in a daze in front of the dozens of stacks of items all night long, she was now a little doubtful about life.

 Even though teachers’ salary has been improved a lot last year, their monthly income is still in their early forties.

Based on her current salary, it would take at least thirty years to earn so much money.

Zhou Xiaoying thought about it for a while and said seriously: "Duoyu, I don't want to take care of the money anymore. You should take care of it yourself and deposit it into the company account."

Li Duoyu rolled his eyes at her: "That won't work. This money won't go to the company. We'll keep it for ourselves."

 “How can we spend all this money?”

Li Duoyu chuckled and said, "It's not easy to spend money. In a few months, I will buy an imported motorcycle. Maybe it won't be enough."

“After riding Ouge’s motorcycle last time, I felt very excited”

Hearing that Li Duoyu still wanted a motorcycle, Zhou Xiaoying frowned and felt that it was still necessary to manage money.

“Don’t buy unnecessary things. Our island doesn’t even have a decent road. Why buy a motorcycle? It’s better to buy an extra fishing boat.”

“By the way, there are still many people in our village who cannot afford to buy fishing boats. Can we buy a few more and rent them to them? This way we can make money and the villagers can make money.”

 Li Duoyu looked at Zhou Xiaoying with a surprised look on his face. Could it be that his wife was born with a business acumen. She had previously thought about buying a store in the city, but now she was planning to buy a boat and rent it to the villagers.

Li Duoyu now finally understands what the older generation means by "marrying a golden hen".

Li Duoyu said seriously: "Yes, I am 100% in favor of this. You can do it boldly."

 “Then I really want to buy a boat.”

"Hurry up and buy more. From now on, you will be a housekeeper."

Zhou Xiaoying rolled her eyes at him: "How unpleasant it sounds to be a charterer."

 “That Zhou Zong.”

Zhou Xiaoying frowned and said, "Don't talk nonsense, okay? I'm just a teacher."

Li Duoyu chuckled and said, "Teacher Zhou, I have earned so much money for you, do you want to give me a make-up lesson in the evening?"

After hearing this, Zhou Xiaoying glared at him angrily: "What's wrong with you? Can't you be more serious? Don't make fun of me as a teacher."

“I know, if you don’t dare next time, let me give you the injection instead.”

 Zhou Xiaoying wanted to cry but had no tears.

 What Li Duoyu didn’t expect was.

 The afternoon of the next day.

The second sister-in-law had already come back, and said that the medicinal materials and things Li Duoyu had asked them to buy had been bought, and she asked him to go quickly and treat the eel.

This efficiency even made Li Duoyu suspicious. When he bought the medicinal materials, he was not as fast as them.

 Since people have bought it.

They still have to go over and help with the treatment. In fact, the medicinal materials Li Duoyu asked them to buy are all common sterilizing and anti-inflammatory products.

When treating the eel these two days, Li Duoyu behaved more like a magic stick, and muttered: "This is because the eel's stomach yin is insufficient. The stomach is not nourished, and if it is not prosperous, it will accumulate."

People like Second Sister-in-law who don't understand will think he is awesome. Even people like Zhou Ming are completely intimidated by him.

Even Zhang Xuejin and others, who are also breeding technicians, are cursing in their hearts: Are you treating fish, or are you treating people?

The second sister-in-law scratched her head when she didn't understand: "Duoyu, can you explain it more simply? We don't understand it at all."

Li Duoyu coughed twice:

“To put it simply, the gastrointestinal condition of the eel seedlings is not good. Feeding should be reduced, and when the temperature warms up, the feeding amount can be slowly increased.”

 “If you want to say that, then I understand.”

In the process of treating the eel fry, Li Duoyu did not tell them the reason why the eel fry needed to be cultured at a constant temperature.

 In the process of treating eels, as the temperature rises after spring, these problems will naturally be solved.

 Speaking of it, it’s really only a week away. As long as one week later, all the problems in their eel factory will be improved, even without Li Duoyu’s intervention.

This is like a common cold that can be cured in about a week, and Li Duoyu intervened in the last few days. At this time, no matter what medicine he prescribes, it is a miracle medicine for the patient.

However, Li Duoyu didn't do nothing. He really used Chinese medicinal materials to condition the eel fry, making the eel fry that were in poor condition more energetic.

 Judging from the results, Li Duoyu is indeed very powerful. In the past few days since his intervention, the eel's condition has indeed improved.

As the boss, Zhang Sanming values ​​​​more the results than the treatment process. After seeing Li Duoyu curing the eel.

He reprimanded them: "Teacher Zhang, Teacher Lin, you really need to put down your airs and learn from Director Li. Our Director Li is a real person."

  “Should, should.”

 In fact, when Li Duoyu was treating the eel fry, Zhang Xuejin was really studying seriously.

  But I didn’t learn anything at all.

The Chinese medicinal materials Li Duoyu prescribed were ordinary Chinese medicinal materials, and the words he kept mumbling in his mouth had also been asked by a Chinese doctor, and they were also simple medical terms.

Looking at the notes he had taken these days, Zhang Xuejin couldn't help but scratch his scalp with both hands. He really couldn't figure out how Li Duoyu cured the eel fry.

But just when he was about to think of it, Lin Youming, who was also a breeding technician, suddenly said: "Teacher Zhang, I feel something is wrong. Director Li's treatment method should be impossible to cure. Is it possible?" , he secretly gave us the secret recipe for treatment without letting us find out. "

After his reminder, Zhang Xuejin suddenly felt enlightened, and he suddenly figured out things that he couldn't figure out at first.

It turns out that Li Duoyu has medicine in his hand, so no wonder he deliberately pretends to be a ghost.
