1983 Small Island, Starting From a Large Farmer

 After returning from the pier, Li Duoyu waited in the lobby of Ludao Hotel.

 It’s almost seven o’clock.

Section Chief Li came and greeted Li Duoyu after seeing him.

“Director Li, it’s so early. The leaders are still having breakfast. They won’t arrive until later. Have you had breakfast?”

"already eaten."

Li Yunpeng also wanted to go fishing with Li Duoyu, but unfortunately he had to be responsible for the reception.

At about half past seven, the leaders came over from the restaurant together.

Li Duoyu knows almost all the leaders who went fishing this time, and they can be considered old acquaintances.

 Secretary-General Huang Qingfeng.

There are also Principal Chen from Ludao Fisheries Science and Technology School and Director Wu from the Fisheries Bureau.

And a middle-aged man who is not tall and has put on weight wearing a peaked cap. However, seeing that he is standing very close to the leader, he is probably of good background.

After seeing these people, Li Duoyu giggled. For a moment, he didn't know how to say hello.

The leader snorted and said, "Why haven't you written the ideological report for last quarter? You are not an activist at all. You always have to be pushed by others to write reports."

 After hearing this, Li Duoyu was stunned on the spot. There were too many things in the last quarter and he forgot about it.

Secretary Chen didn’t remind him either, as he didn’t expect the leader to remember it so clearly.

Principal Chen smiled: "Teacher Li, there are things to be afraid of."

Li Duoyu scratched his head: "Raising seafood. I'm not afraid of fishing, but when I sit at the table for a whole week, I may not be able to write it well."

 The leader sighed: “That’s why I said you are not suitable for our profession.”

At this time, the middle-aged man wearing a peaked cap said: "He is the young man who will take us fishing today."

“That’s right, President Ou, let me introduce to you. The grilled eel I treated you to some time ago was made by him.”

"That's Li Duoyu from Dandan Island." This middle-aged man had no airs at all and was quite easy to get along with. After seeing Li Duoyu, he shook hands enthusiastically.

"Hello, I am Ou Guohe from the Hong Kong Island Association. I heard the leader tell you before that you are indeed young and promising."

 Li Duoyu replied: "Hello, President Ou."

After shaking Li Duoyu's hand, the middle-aged man couldn't help but said: "Your palm looks like a fisherman's hand. When I was young, I was just like you. I spent all day pulling bamboo rafts on the beach."

At this time, the secretary Huang Qingfeng said: "Duoyu, President Ou is just like you. He grew up by the sea when he was a child. He is also the leader of our overseas sorority. The quota for you and your wife is given by President Ou." ”

Li Duoyu immediately said: "Thank you, President Ou, for giving us the opportunity to go to Hong Kong Island this time."

The middle-aged man named Ou Guohe smiled and waved his hand: "We are all our own people, so there is no need to be so polite. We in the Hong Kong Island Association also want to make some contributions to the development of our hometown."

 After hearing this, Li Duoyu thought for a moment. He really admired the group of Chinese who went to Hong Kong Island a generation earlier to develop.

Although they do not live in the country, their roots are still there. Once they become developed, these people will still miss their hometown.

For example, the three Mr. An, Mr. Huo and Mr. Zhuang who enjoyed the state funeral.

 It is a pity that this spirit seems to have been discontinued in their generation and has not been passed down.

Li Duoyu is also a person who has gone out to work hard, a generation like them who go out to work.

I always think about going home and building a house so that when I get old, I will go home to take care of myself. However, the next generation who grew up outside have been fully or partially Westernized because they have received Western education. They have not recognized their ancestors at all. this concept.

President Ou continued: "The last time I ate your grilled eel, I still get cravings for it occasionally. If it is available this year, please leave some for me. I also have several restaurants on Hong Kong Island."

Li Duoyu replied: "Of course, I will keep the best quality eels for you."

“Then let’s agree in advance that when the time comes, you won’t sell all the goods to the devils as soon as they offer a high price.”

After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he took out a business card from his pocket and said, "This is my business card. If you come to Hong Kong Island in the future, you can contact me directly. I'll treat you to a big dinner."

Li Duoyu took the business card and put it into his pocket, but the middle-aged man opposite him was stunned for a moment and asked: "Director Li, do you have a business card? Give me one too so that I can contact you when the time comes. you."

Li Duoyu was a little embarrassed: "I haven't made a business card yet."

After hearing this, the leader was a little disgusted: "You have made so much money, why can't you even print a business card?"

 Li Duoyu scratched his head: "The main reason is that there are no telephones or telegraphs on the island, so it is difficult to contact."

“Someone has already taken care of the electricity issue for you. Don’t think about it anymore. Let me help you get the phone.”

The leader thought for a while and said to Li Yunpeng on the side: "Xiao Li, you will arrange for someone to go to Ludao Printing Factory to print some business cards for Director Li. The address will be his, and the phone number will be left with your office. Save time by then. At the sorority party, no business cards were given out.”

“Understood, leader, I’ll go handle it right away and I’ll make sure to bring the business card back tonight.”

Zhang Sanming, who heard the news, was fishing in the lobby early and saw Li Duoyu talking and laughing with the leaders.

This treatment is like that of a biological son. When I saw Li Duoyu receiving another foreign trade order, I felt so uncomfortable.

 Obviously he is also an eel farmer, so why didn’t the leader mention him?

 As soon as he thought this, the leader noticed him and talked about their eel factory.

“Sanming, did your Haixin Group also take over a large eel foreign trade order some time ago?”

 Zhang Sanming quickly replied:

  “I picked up one.”

“I heard that this foreign trade order is almost one million, right?”

 “If there is not one million, then eight hundred thousand.”

"Very good, you should also raise them well. Kill the spirit of Director Li, otherwise it will be as if he is the only one in the province who can raise eels. Last time I asked him to send a few eels, but they all told me that they were out of stock and sold out. ”

Zhang Sanming smiled awkwardly and added silently in his heart: "It's very possible that he is the only one in the country who can raise children."

Zhang Sanming has been feeling really uncomfortable lately. From a year ago to now, he has not had a good night's sleep and has had nightmares for several nights in a row.

 When I first started raising eels, these **** experts were all sure that they could raise the eels well.

What else can I say? As long as the eel fry are willing to eat, the next step will definitely be very simple.

 A lot of money was invested, foreign trade orders were obtained, and relationships within the county were established.

result

 The first step was to give birth.

Zhang Sanming felt that these breeding experts who only knew how to talk were unreliable. Taken together, they were not as good as Li Duoyu, who had never graduated from junior high school.

Although he knew that Li Duoyu learned his eel farming techniques from the island country, he also asked someone to go to the island country to ask.

This eel farming technology is considered high-end even for them. I really don’t know how Li Duoyu obtained it.

 His only hope now is to go to Hong Kong Island to see if he can find a solution.

As for Li Duoyu, we definitely can’t count on him. We are all adults and he is not a Bodhisattva, so how could he be so kind to help him.

Zhang Sanming frowned and was thinking about what to do next. Li Duoyu and his group had already boarded a minibus.

When Zhang Sanming came to his senses, he remembered that he had forgotten to go fishing with them.

 One wrong step, and every step is wrong.

He feels really uncomfortable now, but now that he is on a pirate ship, he can only bite the bullet and continue to engage in eel farming.

 At the first pier of Ludao Island.

The minibus stopped at the roadside, and Li Duoyu took them on the fishing boat.

In addition to them, the people who went fishing this time also included two plainclothes people and a local fishery administration boat.

  President Ou was a little surprised when he saw Li Duoyu's fishing boat. He had been back to the mainland for so long.

 The most common ones I see are wooden boats, and occasionally there are a few iron boats, but I have never seen this kind of fishing boat.

He touched it and praised it: "Director Li, your boat is great. The railings are all made of stainless steel."

 Knocked on the hull of the ship.

“The hull seems to be made of fiberglass as well. This boat is very light, so it should drive very quickly.”

Li Duoyu replied: "At full speed, it will be about seventeen knots."

 “That’ll be quick too.”

The leader also boarded his boat for the first time and touched the stainless steel railings of Li Duoyu's boat. It was obviously different from those produced in China.

“Can our country produce this material now?”

Huang Qingfeng was silent for a while and replied: "Production is possible, but the production equipment is imported. The current output is very small. Our country just independently developed a production line last year. In a few years, this material will be available." There are a lot of them.”

At this time, Li Duoyu just took out the fishing rod, and the leader asked: "What about the fishing rod that I took back from Director Li for research last time?"

Seeing the leader ask this, Wu Yuping quickly replied: "There is no problem in imitating the shape, but the fishing rod is made of multi-layer fibers. We lack the materials and technology to make it so light."

 The leader frowned for a while.

“It seems that our technology is too far behind.”

Ou Guohe said with a smile: "Leader, just relax when you come out and don't worry about these things anymore. China has only officially started in the past two years, and the development has been very rapid. Compared with the time when the meeting was just reorganized, the changes have been very big. "

At this moment, Principal Chen suddenly said: "Oh, I suddenly remembered something. We have fishing rods, but have we bought any bait?"

Li Duoyu grinned and said, "Principal Chen, I have already bought a warehouse of live shrimps and sea centipedes. Is that enough for you to catch?"

Li Duoyu opened the live fish bin, and most of the shrimps inside were still alive, floating on the surface one by one.     “You should be careful with many fishes. There are even live shrimps. Did you wake up very early? Otherwise, where can you buy them?”

Seeing that these live shrimps were going to be used for fishing, the leader frowned and was quite reluctant: "Do you want to use such expensive shrimps to go fishing?"

Principal Chen replied: "All fish in the sea like to eat alive, and dead shrimps and fish are more difficult to catch."

“These shrimps add up to almost half my monthly salary.”

"I don't want to let my shoes catch the wolf." Principal Chen said: "I am relatively familiar with this area. You will follow the route I gave you later. I will take you to an excellent fishing spot. I will ensure that Director Li's shrimp money and Earn the gas money back.”

 “If you can’t make money back, you can treat me to dinner tonight.”

"no problem."

 Under the leadership of Principal Chen, Li Duoyu sailed the boat to the waters near Zhangzhou Port near Ludao.

There were several large and small islands in front of them. Several leaders looked at the islands with serious expressions.

The names of Dandan Island are quite similar. They are Dada, Erdan, Sandan, Sidan and Wudan Island respectively.

 Referred to as Wudan Island.

Although these small islands are very close to them, they are under the jurisdiction of Kinmen County, Overseas Province. It is precisely because of the existence of these small islands that the fishing boats on Ludao Island have to make a circle every time they go out to fish.

 This feeling is like being surrounded by a wall at the door of your home, and you must take a detour.

 After arriving at the location designated by Principal Chen, Li Duoyu parked his car and dropped anchor. He found the place where Principal Chen had brought them.

It turned out to be a volcanic island near Zhangzhou Port. Their fishing boat was very close to a small island called Wuyu.

 When the boat stopped, Li Duoyu was also detected through the fish finder.

 There are indeed many marine fish swimming in the sea below. It is indeed a very resource-rich place.

 Principal Chen looked at the fish detector and said, "Teacher Li, this place is good."

 “There are indeed a lot of fish.”

Li Duoyu looked around curiously. This fishing spot was not only very close to the island next door, but also very close to the land.

 Why are there so many fish?

 Offshore fishery resources are shrinking really fast now, especially the bottom fishery resources, which have been hit hard.

There is no closed fishing season now. Trawlers are just like plowing fields. As long as there is a market for seafood, they can even trawl and collect the nets 24 hours a day.

  No matter how good the fishery resources are, they cannot withstand such a creation. In a place like this, with such a good fishing spot, there is only one possibility.

Li Duoyu pointed to the bottom of the sea and whispered: "Here below"

Principal Chen did not shy away and said directly: "There are many rocks down here, and several official ships of the Ming Dynasty were sunk. Even the trawlers dare not come here."

Li Duoyu smiled, and sure enough!

Although shipwrecks are taboo for fishermen, shipwrecks are indeed a very good natural refuge for marine life.

 Over time, coral reefs will even form, giving rise to a perfect ecology.

 Li Duoyu has prepared fishing rods for everyone, and everything about the fishing group has been set up.

As for fishing skills and the like, Li Duoyu has no intention of teaching them. In the face of absolute resources, technology is just the icing on the cake.

  Unfortunately, there were a total of four fishing rods on the boat, and Li Duoyu and Principal Chen, two people who often fished, acted as support staff this time.

Just after the bait was put down, the bell on the top of President Ou’s fishing rod made a sound.

  President Ou’s fishing rod caught a fish. Li Duoyu thought he was a fisherman and should be good at fishing.

Unexpectedly, the fishing rod seemed to be out of control, swinging around, and Mr. Ou's fishing reel was not very good.

“Big one, big one.” President Ou was quite excited, but Li Duoyu felt that if he didn’t help him, according to his fishing method, there was a high probability that the line would be cut off or the fishing wheel would explode.

“President Ou, would you like me to help you stabilize the fishing rod?”

 “Okay, please help me.”

After Li Duoyu took the fishing rod, he immediately controlled it. With a few push-ups, he took up the line. Not long after, a tarpon weighing one and a half kilograms fell to the deck and kept jumping around. .

This fish is covered in silver and looks like a freshwater swordfish.

Ou Guohe looked surprised: "It's so heavy, how could you catch it? It's so small."

Li Duoyu smiled: "This is not small, it is already very big. Many of the fish sold at the pier are half a catty."

 Deep sea fishing, even if it weighs more than a kilogram, it is still a bit difficult to pull.

  After all, in addition to the weight of the fish itself, there is also the fishing rig, and the temperament of each fish is different.

 And this tarpon is also famous for its bad temper, and this fish is really unpalatable, with lots of spines and rotten flesh.

Anglers also have a nickname for it: the emperor’s mouth (eats everything) and the beggar’s body (all rotten meat).

 It is also jokingly called the fish that kills friendship. If you are a fisherman and you catch this kind of fish and give it to your friends to eat, they will probably blacklist you.

 And Li Duoyu has also discovered that the meat of many powerful sea fish is not delicious, such as sea wolf, tarpon, and cow trevally.

 On the contrary, those sea fish with weak strength taste good.

Chairman Ou looked at the caught fish and was very disgusted: "The fisher was almost exhausted, but the result was a tarpon. This thing is impossible to serve on the table. When I was a child, I used it to make fish cakes. "

Li Duoyu helped him hang up another live shrimp bait, but not long after, he caught another fish, and it was also a big-eyed tarpon.

 “Here comes a grouper.”

 At this time, everyone also caught fish one after another.

Director Wu caught a bass weighing about two pounds. Although he is the director of fisheries, he rarely fishes.

 It was quite fun when I caught it.

After fishing for almost ten minutes, the leader also caught a fish. It was a flat, green sea fish with spines.

Seeing that he was about to catch it with his hands, Li Duoyu and Principal Chen shouted at the same time: "Don't catch it, that fish is poisonous."

 The leader immediately stopped his hand and asked, “What kind of fish is this?”

Principal Chen of the Fisheries School introduced it on the spot: "This fish is called Qingmei by the locals, Nimeng by the Guangdong people, and Niangai by the Dongshan people."

Hearing the last name, the leader was a little curious: "Why is it such a girly, strange name?"

Principal Chen smiled and said: "Because if you are stung by the poisonous stinger of this fish, it will hurt so much that you cry out for your mother, so Dongshan simply gave it this name."

"So this is ah."

Li Duoyu took a piece of cloth and directly held down the jumping mud fish. This thing is called a smelly belly fish among them.

 He ​​has long been accustomed to various names for this fish. It is no exaggeration to say that there are at least dozens of names for this fish along the coast.

Li Duoyu said: "This kind of fish is delicious. It's good for braised in braised sauce or in soy sauce."

Huang Qingfeng also held a fishing rod, but he had no intention of fishing. He said to Duoyu: "Seeing that you have been busy, it's up to you to show off your skills. There are so many of us, and we won't be able to catch enough fish to eat. "

 After Li Duoyu took the fishing rod, he adjusted it slightly. Just now, he had briefly observed the topography of the seabed through the boat's fish finder.

 Approximately determines the location of the wreck, if any large groupers are present.

That must be hidden in the sunken ship. After all, grouper is also a creature that likes to drill holes.

Li Duoyu fished directly to the bottom and locked the discharge force of the fishing wheel. His hands shook slightly, which can stimulate the shrimp and make it make more exaggerated movements.

　About five minutes after I went down, the fishing rod immediately bent.

 There is an obvious difference between fishing for seawater fish and freshwater fish, that is, freshwater fish eat bait very slowly.

The fish are just like small mouths of cherries, but sea fish are much wilder, and they are often stuffy.

 Once you have a mouth, it is usually a dead mouth.

 After stabbing the fish.

Li Duoyu started a tug-of-war with the sea fish on the spot. Everyone was attracted to him when he kept shaking his pole.

President Ou said with envy: "Your fishing rod is buzzing, it must be very big."

 Li Duoyu nodded: "It shouldn't be too small, but it shouldn't be particularly big either."

 Everyone has been paying attention to the other end of the fishing line. Not long after, a sea fish about 40 centimeters long was pulled to the surface of the water.

 “This one is big enough.”

President Ou said: "This fish is not bad. The fish has spots all over it, and it looks like fine-spotted grouper."

Li Duoyu nodded: "That's right, it's fine grouper."

Since it was pulled up from the bottom of the sea, when the grouper reached the surface, its eyes widened and its swim bladder was pushed out of its mouth.

But just when Principal Chen was about to grab the fish, a gray-white figure appeared at the bottom of the grouper. A big fish about one meter long bit the grouper in one bite.

Then he dived suddenly to the bottom of the fishing boat, and at this moment, the fishing rod in Li Duoyu's hand was suddenly pulled, and the tail of the rod and the fishing rod formed a U shape.

 At this moment, everyone was confused.

Li Duoyu couldn't help but cursed: "Damn it, you idiot, you dare to rob my fish." (End of Chapter)
