1983 Small Island, Starting From a Large Farmer

Lin Shengjin's heart was shattered. It would have been better if he had not waded into Haixin's troubled waters. He looked at the female colleague who rarely spoke, Jiang Zhu.

He is envious and jealous.

Suddenly he remembered what the master who guided him said to him when he first entered the industry. If the idea is not strong enough, then listen more, watch more and do less. Young people can be ambitious, but being too sharp is not a good idea. A good thing.

Now I finally understand.

Jiang Zhu can be regarded as his junior sister. She arrived a year later than him, and she has practiced the master's principle very well.

In the situation, she seems to be doing nothing, not taking the initiative, not being proactive, just doing the tasks assigned to her by the bureau, giving people the feeling of just following the steps and dawdling along.

A week ago, no one was optimistic about her.

No one even thought that she would become the next director, but this mistake of his own may have personally sent her to the position of director.

"well!"

Lin Shengjin couldn't help but smile bitterly, feeling extremely bitter in his heart. He thought it would be better not to count everything, and in the end he would die.

If he was given another choice, he would never do business with someone like Zhang Sanming who only knew how to brag.

This time, he really got into trouble.

But speaking of it, what he hates the most now is Zhang Xianxian, the one who led him in the beginning. Can't he lead Li Duoyu for me?

Just choose a trash for him.

After passing the quarantine test, the leaders present finally breathed a sigh of relief. Now they no longer need to be called to meetings and criticized.

County Magistrate Tao, who didn't even have time to eat breakfast, felt hungry to the point of sticking to his belly as soon as he relaxed, and said quickly:

"Duoyu, we have been on the island for so long, why don't you entertain us?"

Li Duoyu smiled. He had just asked these leaders if they wanted to have a meal first, but these people were focused on the test and just said they would wait.

"It has been prepared for a long time. All the leaders have worked really hard. The village committee has prepared lunch for everyone."

County Magistrate Tao joked: "Is there any grilled eel today?"

"Yes, I baked it myself."

"I heard from the leader that your grilled eel tastes great. Now I have to try to see if it's as good as the legend."

Before departure, Li Duoyu also greeted the islanders who boarded the transport ship as a courtesy.

Yang Kaihong has been pacing in the restaurant all day long, stretching her neck and looking in the direction of the new pier.

His younger son would run to the new dock from time to time and report to him: "Dad, they are still there at the dock."

Yang Kaihong looked at her watch anxiously: "It's been so long since dinner, why haven't you come over to eat? How long will it take?"

Li Duoyu ordered five tables of meals from him two days ago and even paid a deposit in advance. Each table was prepared according to the highest standards on the island.

There are garlic lobster, the best deep-sea grouper, real snapper sashimi, cabbage swimming crab and even the local version of Buddha Jumping Over the Wall.

He has been busy working on this matter for the past two days. Now that the dishes are ready, his wife has come back to help, and now he has sent these officials to come over for dinner.

Not long after, his youngest son said: "Dad, they are going back."

Yang Kaihong said to her daughter-in-law: "If there is a fire, just cook."

But his wife frowned: "But what if the leaders don't come over to eat?"

"Believe me, if you haven't eaten at this point, if you go on a boat, you'll get sour water."

Just as Yang Kaihong expected, these leaders came straight to their restaurant. As soon as Li Duoyu arrived, they immediately urged him to cook.

Maybe it was because they were really hungry, but as soon as the wooden bucket of rice was served, some people couldn't wait to eat it.

"This wooden barrel rice tastes good."

Since Yang Kaihong had prepared the dishes in advance, and with the help of her wife and children, she even brought her neighbors over to help serve the dishes, so the serving efficiency was still very high.

However, the speed of serving food still cannot keep up with the speed of their eating. Often, the leaders will finish the dish not long after it is served.

Director Wu couldn't help but said: "Duoyu, the restaurant owner on your island is very good at cooking and the taste is very good."

Li Duoyu smiled, you are obviously hungry.

To be honest, the leaders definitely eat a lot of these seafood, and Lao Yang's cooking skills are really not that good. They are barely one level above home-cooked food, and not even as good as the chefs in his unit.

It may also be that the stone in their hearts has finally been put down, and all the leaders present were quite happy.

But there are also one or two who can't even drink the soup. One of them is Lin Shengjin from the Foreign Trade Bureau, and the other one is allergic to seafood. Whenever he eats seafood, he will be itchy all over his body.

After confirming that the test was passed, more than fifty villagers from the eel factory all gathered in the pond, rolled up their sleeves, and got to work.

They have to catch all the eels in the ten eel ponds in front of them within half a day.

Someone on the shore pulled the trawl net that sank to the bottom and drove the eels onto the trawl net. While some of the people in the pond held fishing nets and some held dustpans, they put all the eels on the trawl net into wooden barrels.

Lao Li on the shore kept shouting: "Please be careful, don't break the eel's skin."

"Wu Laosi, don't run in the pond, you will trample all the eels to death."

Outside the eel factory.

The drivers of agricultural vehicles who came to transport eels first covered the back buckets of their vehicles with a tarpaulin and then a layer of waterproof colored plastic sheeting.

There is also some crushed ice mixed in it, and the purpose of doing this is only one, which is to cool the car and reduce the death of eels during transportation.

When the eel factory started to catch eels, the announcer Lao Mao couldn't help but happily broadcast: "There is a good news to inform you. The eels raised by our Director Li have passed the inspection and are now loaded."

After hearing this broadcast, the villagers of Xiasha Village were stunned for a moment, and then they were very excited and happy.

If it were two years ago, if Li Duoyu made a lot of money, everyone would be jealous and envious, but now it is different.

Li Duoyu is the signboard of Xiasha Village and even Dandan Island. The more powerful he is, the more the villagers will be proud.

This time, the Haixin Eel Factory in Nanri Town did not sell the eels, but Li Duoyu did, which proves that their island is more powerful.

Now many villagers, when they go out to chat with people outside, will often say:

"Director Li from our village~~"

"That Li Duoyu and I were classmates in elementary school, and we used to sit at the same table."

"Li Duoyu was very naughty when he was young, and he even broke my family's water tank."

"Our Director Li liked me in elementary school, but unfortunately I rejected him."

When it was broadcast, Dandan Island Primary School also heard it, and Zhou Xiaoying, who was writing the key points on the blackboard, was obviously stunned for a few seconds.

When the fat boy Li Haoran heard it, he was really happy. This time he didn't stand up, but he couldn't help laughing out loud.

After laughing, he regretted it, because the whole class was looking at him, and Teacher Zhou happened to be marking the key points.

Li Haoran felt that he would most likely be punished to copy homework tonight, so he quickly apologized in advance: "Teacher Zhou, I was wrong."

Zhou Xiaoying frowned slightly, and said a little seriously: "Forget it, I won't punish you this time. Don't disrupt the order of the class next time, okay?"

"I know." Li Haoran laughed very happily.

At the Tianhou Temple, Chen Huiying, who had been praying all morning, prayed to her mother again after hearing the broadcast, and finally set off a string of firecrackers that rang a thousand times.

When the broadcast was made, some people in Chenjia Village also heard it, and soon after, their village also knew that Li Duoyu had sold the eels.

At the dock of Chenjia Village, someone sighed: "Fortunately, we reconciled with Xiasha Village at the beginning, otherwise we would be too ashamed to see anyone now."

Someone else said anxiously:

"Tell me, when will Li Duoyu be willing to teach us how to raise eels?"

Someone shook his head and said: "Eels are so profitable, how could he teach us now?"

A kelp farmer who made money by raising kelp with Li Duoyu last year said:

"Even if I really teach you how to raise them, do you have the courage to do so? The Haixin Eel Factory in the next town, with such a strong team, can't raise them. Let's forget about it and just focus on raising kelp."

"That's right, let's raise kelp first."

The development of Chenjia Village in the past two years is obvious to all. Many people in the village have built new houses, and the number of fishing boats has more than doubled.

The ranking has also jumped from the last place in ten thousand years to the top eight.

Everyone is very confident now. As long as they are given a few more years, it may not be impossible to rush to the top three.

But there is a big premise here, that is, Li Duoyu is willing to make money with them. This year, they listened to Li Duoyu's words and collected the kelp in advance, which saved them from disaster.

Now, under the influence of "money", the villagers in Chenjia Village respect Li Duoyu very much, even more than their own villagers.

An old man on the Chenjia Village Council said: "By the way, when will Li Duoyu come to the ancestral hall to worship?"

A fifth uncle of Chen Huiying said: "My niece said that Li Duoyu is not surnamed Chen, but a foreign surname, so it is not good for him to come to the ancestral hall to worship."

Chairman of the Council Chen Yuanshan frowned and said: "What's the matter, this child is also, so rebellious at the beginning, why is he so rigid now, it's not to let Li Duoyu recognize his ancestors, just let him come to worship his grandfather, what's wrong with that."

After hearing this, everyone present looked at the chairman. It seems that he was the most obedient one in the past.

An old man said, "If I remember correctly, it was you who refused to let Chen Huiying go back to the ancestral hall to worship her parents."

Chen Yuanshan smiled awkwardly.

"There are rules for different times, but rules are dead, people are alive, and now it's a special situation."

"Cut it off, everyone knows that your family plans to directly plant 200 acres of kelp this year, and you obviously want to build a good relationship with Li Duoyu."

As trucks of eels were transported to the Beilanling Wharf, the staff on the island country transport ship also became busy.

Their equipment is obviously much better than that of Dandan Island. Not only does the ship have a crane, but also a large plastic barrel specially used for transportation.

This time, the second brother Li Yaoguo was still in charge of the statistics, while Chen Wenchao and Shitou were responsible for helping.

After dinner, Kojima Norio checked the eels again on the boat and found that Li Duoyu's eels were really well raised.

The weight of each eel was very well controlled, about half a catty, and they were all very healthy.

Even after being transported and put into the live fish pond of the transport ship, they are still alive and kicking, not looking injured at all. This batch of eel fry is better than last year's batch.

He himself also raises eels, but he is not as good as Li Duoyu. When he learned that Li Duoyu still had five eels in the pond that he did not plan to catch.

Kojima Norio couldn't help but say, "Mr. Li, can't you really sell me more eels?"

Li Duoyu didn't beat around the bush and told the other party directly, "The other five eels in the eel pond were reserved last year."

Kojima Norio said, "I believe that our country's purchase price is the highest."

Li Duoyu frowned and suddenly said seriously, "Mr. Kojima, I think you should not want to cooperate with a dishonest person. If someone really offers a higher price than you, should I sell the eels to him?"

After hearing this, Kojima Norio was stunned for a few seconds, and then he bowed to Li Duoyu without hesitation and apologized, "I'm very sorry, please forgive my rudeness."

When several leaders saw the other party bowing to apologize, they were dumbfounded on the spot. After all, bowing to apologize is a very serious matter in China.

But Li Duoyu is somewhat accustomed to it. After all, the folk customs of the two places are different. The waist and kneeling of the islanders are not as important as in China.

Li Duoyu continued, "By the way, there is something I want to tell you in advance."

"Mr. Li, please speak."

Li Duoyu did not hide anything and told them that the quality of the kelp exported this year was not as good as last year.

After listening to this, Oda Norio admired Li Duoyu even more and couldn't help but exclaimed, "Mr. Li, you are a very admirable partner."

Li Duoyu smiled.

In fact, he was reluctant to tell them that he had been with them for nearly 20 years and knew their personalities well.

When the economy is good, they have a set of principles to follow, and they work harder to make themselves the most contract-abiding and rigorous country in the world.

When the economy is bad, the bottom line is easily broken, and they can't do anything messy.

In many cases, quality has little to do with people, but it is definitely related to money. People will only consider the issue of quality when they have money.

When food and clothing are a problem, there is no time to wait for a traffic light, so what is the quality of talking about?

After seeing Li Duoyu's kelp, Odaki found that it was indeed a little worse than last year, but for him, it was still top-quality kelp.

"Mr. Li, the quality of this kelp is still good. Let's buy it at last year's price."

When the translator translated this sentence, the faces of the kelp farmers watching on the side were as bright as flowers.

Some people even hugged each other. If Li Duoyu hadn't been chatting with the islander, some people would have rushed over to kiss Li Duoyu.

It took almost a whole day to transport the eels onto the ship, plus statistics, etc., and the kelp would not be loaded until the next day.

And those leaders also followed for a whole day. Li Duoyu thought that the process was completed, and the group photos and interviews were also over.

The next day, the leaders should not come, but most of them still came.

Some people were very interested in the final price of Li Duoyu's transaction, such as County Magistrate Tao, who always wanted to know clearly.

How much did Li Duoyu's eels sell for in the end, and how much foreign exchange quota could it bring to the county.

The next day.

Lu Xiaoyu, the female reporter from the TV station, asked with a smile: "Director Li, when we report the special report, should we make the transaction amount public?"

Li Duoyu thought about it. In the past, he was afraid of being hated by the rich and being remembered by others, so he kept a low profile.

But now everyone knows that he is a boss and very rich. There is no need to hide it. The more low-key you are, the more curious others will be. It is better to tell them openly.

Besides, if the transaction amount is not made public, how can the leaders improve their performance?

"No problem, it can be made public."

Lu Xiaoyu, with crescent eyes, couldn't help but say: "After this news is broadcast, everyone will probably be really shocked." (End of this chapter)
