1983 Small Island, Starting From a Large Farmer

Minlong Food recently recruited a new doorman, and this man is none other than Zhu Xiuhua’s biological father.

 The father-in-law of the second brother Li Yaoguo, Zhu Jianmin, like her daughter, also has a fat figure with big hips and a thick body.

He was also the only person in the village who dared to pick up a stick and beat Zhu Xiuhua. This was also the reason why Zhu Xiuhua was unable to enter the eel factory after he came that day.

Although Zhu Jianmin is tall, unlike his daughter, he does not cause trouble. On the contrary, he is very low-key.

 It’s that face. It’s naturally sinister, and it’s even more terrifying when it smiles.

Li Duoyu still remembers that when Haoran was a child, his grandfather came to see him several times, but he was scared to tears every time.

The children in the village also gave him the nickname (黑面), which roughly means his face is smelly and fierce.

Possibly because of his unappealing appearance, Zhu Jianmin did not work in the village, but raised goats on the island. He raised half of the goats on the island.

He lives outside the village on weekdays and rarely sees this person in the village. When goat milk is produced, he occasionally goes to the village to sell goat milk.

When little Tutu was weaned, Li Duoyu bought him a lot of fresh goat milk.

The second brother invited him here specifically to guard against the second sister-in-law. After all, many technologies in the eel factory have been updated this year.

If Zhu Xiuhua insists on coming in to study secretly while Li Duoyu is away, he will definitely not be able to stop him with his body.

So, Li Yaoguo thought of his father-in-law and ran to discuss it with him. The other party was very happy and directly sold all the goats and came to the eel factory to work as a guard.

Although he looks a bit fierce, his father-in-law is actually a very gentle and reasonable person.

Several times he had conflicts with Zhu Xiuhua, but the father-in-law would beat up his daughter first without saying a word.

Just now, my uncle Chen Dongqing met Zhu Jianmin, but it turned out that Zhu Jianmin didn't know Chen Dongqing at all and refused to let him in, making him so angry that he blew his beard and stared.

After Li Duoyu arrived at the eel factory, the middle-aged man with a sinister face opened the door immediately.

Li Duoyu smiled and said: "Uncle Jianmin, this is my brother-in-law. If he comes next time, there is no need to stop him."

The burly Zhu Jianmin smiled and said, "Okay, I'll remember him."

 Chen Dongqing glanced at him and immediately turned around and left. It was obviously just a very ordinary sentence, but when it came out of his mouth, it sounded like a threat.

 After arriving at Li Duoyu's eel factory, Chen Dongqing found that the changes were quite big. Compared with last year, it seemed to be more and more standardized.

There is also a set of boilers that look like water boilers. Above the eel fry breeding ponds, they are all covered with colorful plastic sheets, and there is faint steam coming out.

 Chen Dongqing asked:

“Duoyu, what are you doing? Cooking fish?”

Li Duoyu rolled his eyes at him: "You really can't understand, right? Then your reading of the book has been in vain."

“I can’t understand a hammer. I’ve never seen such a crude heating device.”

“That’s right, Comrade Dongqing, it seems that you are not stupid in reading, and your brain is quite flexible.”

 Chen Dongqing really wanted to kick his **** nephew to death.

Looking at the boiler for boiling water in front of him, Li Duoyu was also helpless. The machinery factory did have temperature control equipment.

To be honest, Li Duoyu really didn’t have the guts to do anything. After all, what farmers like them fear most is equipment failure.

 Once there is a problem with the temperature control equipment, all the eel fry may be cooked.

The consequences are terrifying just thinking about it, even if the factory director said that the machine equipment has only a few tenths of a percent chance of failure.

 But once it happens and it falls on him, it’s 100%.

Li Duoyu is not a gambler, so it would be more reliable to use manual real-time monitoring and manual control of the water temperature.

This set of equipment is also the reason why the second brother refused to let the second sister-in-law come in. Duoyu once told him that this set of equipment was the fundamental reason why the eel fry at Haixin Eel Factory were not well raised.

Even though eel fry are caught in cold weather, if you want these little things to eat and grow, the temperature must reach above 15°.

 When the water temperature is controlled at around 20°, the feeding behavior is very obvious. As soon as the red worms are splashed, they will be snatched up by the eel fry.

Chen Dongqing walked around and couldn't help but admire: "Your eel farming technology is getting more and more mature."

Li Duoyu smiled.

 “People will always make progress.”

“Then when will you authorize the eel farming technology to me?”

 “You think beautifully.”

Li Duoyu then said: "By the way, all of my ponds are still empty. Hurry up and introduce me to a shrimp seedling factory so that I can raise a season of sea shrimp before the crab seedling season arrives."

Seeing Li Duoyu talking about this matter, Chen Dongqing sighed. He came to the island to find him today just for this matter.

 Chen Dongqing took a puff of cigarette: "I heard that you have made a lot of money from Haixin recently. Have you broken up with them?"

“You are quite well-informed. Even if we break up, we won’t break up. It’s just an ordinary cooperative relationship.”

Chen Dongqing sighed:

"You think it's ordinary, but others don't. The batch of shrimp seedlings purchased by our research institute were obtained from Haixin. Yesterday, people from Haixin came over overnight and placed restrictions on us. As long as the seedlings related to their company No one is allowed to cooperate with Li Duoyu and Minlong Company."

 “Damn it, such a grudge must be repaid.”

Chen Dongqing glared and said:

"You're not much better. I paid 30,000 yuan to treat a doctor in their eel factory. I treat others for free."

"We are different. You represent an organization, and you cannot take advantage of the masses. This is a business act. The thirty thousand yuan is just for Xiuhua's sake. If it were someone else, the bottom line would be fifty thousand. rise."

 “You are too cruel.”

Li Duoyu smiled: "Now you know how scary technological monopoly is."

Chen Dongqing thought for a while: "Ten years ago, I would have sent you all in with my own hands."

"Times have changed, Comrade Dongqing, we have to look at money now. Earning more foreign exchange for the country and buying more technical equipment is the best way."

Li Duoyu continued: "How about we work together to see if we can cultivate shrimp seedlings."

“There are many fish, do you know how to cultivate them?”

Since taking over the task of raising shrimp, Chen Dongqing discovered that it was a big pit. The shrimp seedlings were in the hands of several nursery companies, and they were sold very expensively. Mature shrimp farming technology is also not disclosed, which is one of the reasons why the current price of shrimp is so high.

While shouting for vigorous development, there are also various technical barriers, which makes them, grassroots personnel, quite uncomfortable.

Li Duoyu made a random excuse: "Do you still remember the islander who bought my eel? I have a very good relationship with him. He briefly mentioned to me some methods for broodstock to hold eggs."

Chen Dongqing thought for a while and realized that if he teamed up with Duoyu to cultivate shrimp seedlings, he would definitely offend the people on Haixin's side.

Keduoyu is not a soft persimmon, he is easy to handle. After all, there is a leader above him to protect him.

Although he is only a small technical technician, he has been in this circle for so long, and he can see that the situation above is really a mixed bag.

 There are developmentists and wealth-seeking factions. This document to vigorously develop shrimp farming was issued by the developmentists. It is hard to say what the elements of Haixin’s side are.

After Chen Dongqing smoked a cigarette, he thought about it seriously, and then said: "Fuck it, let's do it together. A grown man is born in the world, how can he be timid? It's a bullshit."

Li Duoyu continued: "However, we agreed in advance that after the broodstock breeding technology is developed, the technology will be owned by Minlong Company for the first five years. After five years, you can dispose of it as you wish."

 “Damn it, you’re too dark, what’s the benefit to me?”

Li Duoyu said disgustedly: "I'm providing the money, land and technology for this project. Shouldn't I take the lion's share? When our shrimp farm is built, I'll give you a 500% profit share. How fun is that? ”

 Chen Dongqing sighed, Duoyu said as if nothing was wrong: "First treat me to a meal and a drink."

 “Why?”

The uncle said with a look of resentment: "It's not you who caused it. He had nothing to do. He took us to visit some friendship store and spent all the money. After your aunt came back, she thought I didn't earn enough, so she took all my private money. Come out, tell me, you may not believe it, this is the Chinese New Year, I can’t even afford a boat ticket to Dandan Island.”

Li Duoyu gave a thumbs up: "It's amazing. I actually have private money. I don't have anything like this. It's all handed over directly to Xiaoying."

Chen Dongqing looked at this nephew with great disgust: "Let's have a drink first and then talk about things related to shrimp seedlings."

 “Would you like to come to my house for a drink?”

“No, my sister will nag me. Let’s go to Lao Yang’s small frying shop.”

 For Li Duoyu, he knows how to raise shrimps. He now has some land, so it would not be that difficult to raise them extensively.

Li Duoyu has never tried breeding shrimp seedlings. In the past, he bought shrimp seedlings directly from the nursery and never bred them himself.

 High-density shrimp farming will make the female shrimp's environment unsuitable, thereby inhibiting X maturation and prolonging the egg-laying time.

It seems that many animals are like this. Once they find that the environment is not suitable, they will stop giving birth to the next generation.

For example, a pregnant giant panda, a national treasure, will actively stop delivering nutrients to the fetus and terminate the pregnancy once its own condition is not good or the surrounding environment is unsafe and is not conducive to the survival of its cubs.

Since giant panda cubs are extremely small compared to the mother cat, the fetus is absorbed by the mother after the pregnancy is terminated.

 In fact, human beings are the same. When they have no money and the environment is not good, they simply don’t fall in love, let alone raise the next generation.

In the early years, there were indeed some shrimp farmers, but they all fished out the egg-bearing female shrimps from the sea and then raised them in ponds.

 But it all depends on luck, the breeding efficiency is too low, and the yield is often very low. After a few years, no one wants to raise it.

But humans are still humans after all, and they soon discovered a way to stimulate female shrimp to mature earlier.

 In the past, Li Duoyu had been to the nursery several times with his boss and had seen their technicians operating it.

 It seems that just cutting off one of the shrimp's eyes seems to have an X gland that secretes hormones in the eyestalk of the shrimp.

As long as it is cut off, the female shrimp will lose its inhibitory effect. To put it simply, it will make the shrimp mature quickly and let it enter the breeding stage immediately.

 It won't take long before one or two male shrimps will chase the female shrimps. Once successful, the female shrimps will soon hold the eggs.

It was also this visit that allowed Li Duoyu to see what first- and second-generation shrimp seedlings are, and he also understood that the original breeding shrimp of Penaeus vannamei had been stuck abroad.

 At the most exaggerated time, the price of a pair of vannamei broodstock (breeding shrimp) was as high as 200 US dollars.

Li Duoyu thought that since Haixin refused to give him shrimp seedlings, he might as well do his own research instead of being stuck.

Although Li Duoyu still doesn’t understand a lot about broodstock cultivation, if his uncle joins in, he will probably save a lot of trouble.

The two hit it off right away at Lao Yang Restaurant, and immediately decided to build a shrimp nursery in Qixing Bay.

The site and R&D funds are all funded by Li Duoyu. After the research is successful, Minlong Company will have exclusive use rights for five years.

Even Chen Dongqing cannot license it privately. Five years later, Li Duoyu will license this technology to Chen Dongqing or his fishery research institute.

Just when they were full and full, Li Duoyu saw Lao Lu receiving a young man at the pier.

The young man was carrying a medicine box with a cross on it and a large cloth bag on his back.

 Lao Lu said he was a barefoot doctor, but Li Duoyu looked at him and felt that this young man looked more like a doctor than Li Xiaorong.

He is a bit younger, wears a pair of glasses, has a rather elegant temperament, and is quite handsome, but a little bit worse than him.

Perhaps intellectuals have the habit of looking down on each other. As soon as Chen Dongqing saw this person, he immediately stopped dealing with him: "This pretty boy looks like a charlatan at first glance. Lao Lu is going to be deceived."

Li Duoyu said disgustedly: "Go back quickly. If it's too late, be careful that my aunt will let you sleep on the floor again."

The uncle burped and said arrogantly: "I'm afraid of a hammer. No matter what, I am the head of the family."

 “He who cooks, cook.”

“I can’t help it. If anyone asks me to cook better than her, even the dogs will hate the food she cooks.”

 After the young doctor arrived, he was directly invited to Lao Lu's house.

After Lao Lu’s hard promotion this month, this young barefoot doctor has become a “god”-like existence in everyone’s eyes.

After hearing the news, many villagers ran to Lao Lu’s house and planned to seek medical treatment from him.

At this moment, Li Xiaorong found Zhang Defa: "Let's go and see together."

Zhang Defa said awkwardly: "You can go ahead if you want. I won't embarrass myself anyway."

“Don’t you want to know why that young barefoot doctor is so sure that that thing is a lipoma?”

Zhang Defa hesitated for a while, and then followed Li Xiaorong to Lao Lu's house to meet this magical barefoot doctor. (End of chapter)
