1983 Small Island, Starting From a Large Farmer

Li Duoyu strolled around the pier and then headed for the new pier.

It is also very lively there now. The only downside is that it takes about 20 minutes to walk from Xiasha Village.

There is currently a bulldozer and an excavator on the island repairing the road, but the coastal road is really fucking difficult to repair, it is all stone.

There is a huge rock every few dozen meters. If you want to repair the road, you have to crush the rocks first. It took two months to repair a short distance of less than two kilometers.

Finally, the village committee decided to spend more money to widen the road into two lanes in order to speed up the progress of road construction, and finally directly paved with cement.

And those broken stones were pulled to the vicinity of the new pier to prepare for a large shelter.

With more and more fishing boats on Dandan Island, the shelter on the old pier seems a bit too small, and a new one must be built.

Otherwise, when a typhoon comes, the fishermen will suffer heavy losses. Fortunately, the small boats can be pulled directly to the shore, but the larger fishing boats cannot be pulled.

At present, as the economy improves, various hardware facilities on the island are gradually being improved. Of course, not all of this money is paid by the villagers themselves.

Part of it comes from the financial support from the county, which was obtained by Chen Jianghe, who ran for a full 100,000 yuan.

It is said that when this financial support was obtained, no one knows how many people were red-eyed. However, the money given by the finance is not enough to build roads and harden the road surface, let alone build a large shelter.

In the end, Minlong donated part of it, and the rest was collectively donated by all the villagers of the entire Dandan Island.

So far, the donations received have exceeded 200,000 yuan, and the funds for the two projects combined are about 300,000 yuan.

At the current speed, the road should be repaired by the end of the year, and the shelter can be completed a year later.

At that time, the traffic between the two docks will be very smooth, and fishing boats will have a place to dock when a typhoon comes.

Li Duoyu's goal is to build a whole ring road around the island. If it develops smoothly, Dandan Island may be able to develop tourism in the 1990s.

At that time, villagers who are tired of living in stone houses can live in the new area, and those stone houses can be turned into homestays for tourists to live in.

After all, tourists like the original accommodation environment. If you let you stay in a hotel here, they will say that there is no "island flavor".

If the tourism industry can be developed, it will also be a continuous source of income for the villagers on the island.

Of course, it is also profitable for Li Duoyu, because he has even thought about the development route of Minlong Tourism Co., Ltd.

At that time, in addition to accommodation, all kinds of sea-hunting, sea ranching, and sea fishing projects will be arranged.

When Li Duoyu came to the new wharf, he found that it was more lively than the old wharf, and many fishing boats were parked here.

But no matter how good the wharf is, not all large ships can dock.

Many boat captains can only park their fishing boats dozens of meters or even hundreds of meters away from the wharf.

And if they want to get on the boat, they still have to be picked up and sent there. Of course, some people have begun to use foam boats as a ferry tool.

This thing can be said to be a must-have weapon for fishermen. Even in his previous life, Li Duoyu also had one, and it was really useful.

Once there is no one to pick you up, you can row the foam boat back to the dock. It must be used with caution when encountering low tide on windy and rough days.

Otherwise, you may not be able to row over the waves, and then you will be taken directly to the open sea, which is very scary.

This happened to Li Duoyu in his previous life once, and he almost lost his life. Fortunately, there were many fishing rafts outside, so he climbed onto the fishing raft.

Nowadays, more than 30 houses have been built in the new district, and most of them are more than two-story houses.

More than 30 houses have been built, and Chen Wenchao's family has moved here, mainly because it saves nearly ten minutes to go to the Qixingwan breeding base from here compared to the Dandan Island Pier.

Since many fishing boats dock here, Lao Chen from the fishing tackle shop has opened a store here. If you sell fishing gear here, it will be better than the old pier.

Sister Li Shuihua also bought a store here and plans to open one here next year.

In addition to locals, there are also many outsiders who want to come to Dandan Island to "break in". There are fifty or sixty people applying for the application form alone.

Although it has become popular, the new area is still a bit desolate. Li Duoyu is not in a hurry. After all, Rome was not built in a day.

Li Duoyu believes that one day Dandan Island will no longer be a small fishing village, but a lively place.

After walking for a while, Li Duoyu met a group of students with fishing rods.

When these students saw Li Duoyu, they suddenly became nervous. Two of them with fishing rods quickly hid their fishing rods behind their backs.

One of the female students said nervously: "Hello, Principal Li."

Li Duoyu nodded and greeted him. He was a vice principal in name only. In fact, he rarely went to school and generally did not participate in school affairs.

"Where are you going?"

A classmate scratched his head: "We plan to go to the oyster field. Teacher Luo gave us a lesson today on how to attach oysters."

"Is that so."

Li Duoyu smiled and looked at the simple fishing rod behind the students: "There are a lot of yellowfin fish on the left side of the field. You can go there to fish. If you don't have bait, you can go to the sand and stones near the beach to dig. There are a lot of red sandworms."

"Got it. Thank you, Principal Li."

The female student just now couldn't help asking: "Principal Li, when will you give us a class?"

Li Duoyu thought seriously for a while, and then said: "It depends on the school's arrangement. If I have time next year, it should be possible."

In fact, the school has urged him to start the class quickly, but Li Duoyu has been too busy recently and has no time to teach at all.

Looking at several students who went fishing, Li Duoyu was a little envious. The major of aquaculture is quite interesting.

Not only are there more practical classes, but when students are free, they can also fish and bring them to the canteen for extra meals.

Regardless of whether it will develop well in the future, at least when they are in school, they will definitely be full of seafood.

There are not many students on the island, only about a hundred people, and the campus is usually closed to reduce contact with local villagers.

Li Duoyu also forbids villagers, especially "yellow hair", to approach the school. Once someone causes trouble.

Li Duoyu doesn't even need to deal with it, someone will naturally teach those troublemakers a lesson.

Talented people emerge in every generation. Since the end of the era of Agui and Li Duoyu, the "street forces" on Dandan Island have changed several times.

What makes Li Duoyu a little uncomfortable is that these little bastards actually call Xiao Tutu "Little Boss".

Alas! If he grows up in such an environment, Li Duoyu is really worried that Xiao Tutu will become arrogant.

Li Duoyu didn't walk a few steps and came to the abalone research base next to the new district. This base was jointly developed by the Fisheries Research Institute and Minlong.

The current main research direction is abalone hybrid seedlings, and the mother plant is the abalone seedlings given to them by the island country.

Under the leadership of Director Zhang Qingyun, abalone seedlings have been iterated three times, and now a variety of abalone called Dandan Island North-South No. 1 has been hybridized.

The name of this abalone is also easy to understand, which means southern abalone raised in the north. Now Li Duoyu has bought a live fish transport ship from Oda Norio.

With this ship, southern abalone can be raised in the north, and it has been negotiated with Shandong.

Li Duoyu thought that the work would be difficult to start, but he didn't expect that when he heard about raising abalone, the farms and breeders there were so active.

They all scrambled to cooperate with them. With the popularization of television and the influx of Hong Kong TV dramas, abalone, shark fins, and fish maws that everyone once looked down on have now become luxury goods among seafood.

It can be said that they are sold at a very high price, and there are even many "water ghosts" who specialize in diving into the sea to catch abalone.

As for the fish maws of rice fish and yellow croaker, the price has increased more than tenfold in this year alone.

In Li Duoyu's warehouse, there are indeed quite a few top-grade fish maws in stock, which were collected slowly over the past five years.

Whenever thinking of this, Lao Mi felt so distressed that he could not breathe, because he had always been the one who helped Li Duoyu collect fish maws.

The prerequisite for raising abalone in the north is that there are fish rafts for abalone farming in the northern waters, and this investment is not small.

The farmers in Shandong are not unconditionally supportive. They also plan to raise abalone, and they all hope that Li Duoyu can sell them abalone seedlings and provide certain breeding technical support.

As for breeding technology, Li Duoyu naturally cannot teach them all, but he has sent some breeding technicians to support them.

At the end of this year, an abalone breeding branch will be established in Shandong to cope with the southern abalone breeding project next year.

In April next year, all the abalones raised here will be sent to the northern waters for summer vacation, and they will be brought back in November.

Li Duoyu drove a small sampan to the abalone raft. So far, the abalone breeding raft is the most expensive, but also the best.

Because abalone farming requires frequent walking on it and feeding feed into the abalone farming box, it is definitely not possible if only bamboo is used, as it is too easy to slip.

Workers are prone to falling, and these people do not wear life jackets. Once something bad happens, their families will definitely come to make trouble.

But if wooden boards are used, the cost will be very high, because the fish raft still needs some support strength.

In the previous life, the abalone rafts they made there were all made of an imported wood called African red pineapple.

Now that imported wood is not available, local pinewood can only be used instead, which is actually ironwood. This kind of wood is hard and resistant to corrosion and is often used to make furniture and ships.

Once this kind of wood is used for abalone rafts, the cost will soar, and the customized plastic abalone farming boxes are not cheap either, and one box costs several yuan.

Li Duoyu only made five abalone rafts, and it cost nearly 300,000 yuan, which is about ten times the investment cost of kelp.

The higher the investment, the higher the rate of return. Li Duoyu's abalones need to be raised for about three years. After three years, they can be raised to about 300-400 grams, and the more outstanding ones can reach half a catty.

These abalones are used to make dried abalones. Li Duoyu just started breeding, and President Ou has already called and contracted more than half of the orders.

At this time, Li Duoyu saw a familiar figure on the abalone steak. After seeing him.

"Director Li, congratulations."

Li Duoyu greeted him, "Director Zhang, why are you here in person?"

Zhang Qingyun smiled and said, "For people in our field, if we sit in the office all the time, how can we achieve results?"

Li Duoyu nodded, which reminded him of an old man who, although an academician, spent most of his working time in the fields.

Director Zhang was right. It is indeed impossible to achieve results by sitting in the office. We must go to the fields.

Zhang Qingyun hammered his waist, looked at the abalone steak in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh: "Abalone cultivation takes too long. Our North-South No. 1 will take another two years to harvest. By that time, I will have retired."

When he said this, Li Duoyu immediately understood what he meant and quickly said: "Tell me when you retire, and we will immediately hire you as a technical consultant."

"You said that, don't despise me then."

"How is it possible? For talents like Director Zhang, the door of our Minlong will always be open to you."

"You are sweeter than your uncle, who can't even say a good fart for a long time."

Li Duoyu smiled and asked: "Let me see how the abalone is doing recently."

Zhang Qingyun pulled up an abalone breeding box and untied the rope on it. It was full of abalone, about fifty heads.

Now they are feeding the abalone, of course, they can also feed them with dried kelp after soaking.

It can be said that abalone is the greenest in aquaculture, because it mostly eats seaweed and kelp.

Of course, when the technology reaches a certain level, special abalone feed will be used for breeding, but compared with other aquaculture, abalone can be said to be a very healthy green aquaculture product.

At present, Li Duoyu's row has raised nearly 500,000 abalone seedlings, calculated based on a survival rate of half.

There are about 250,000 more, and if it is calculated based on three years of breeding, it will be about 80,000 kilograms by then.

At that time, even if one kilogram is only sold for ten yuan, this abalone row can still make a lot of money after deducting the cost.

But according to Li Duoyu's budget, the price of abalone in two years will definitely be more than ten yuan, at least doubled.

At least in the previous life, I heard from Lao Tang that those who raised abalone in the early days of the previous life were all rich, and all built mansions in their hometowns.

And Li Duoyu also has a big ambition, that is, to learn from the Koreans and directly farm abalone in factories.

When Li Duoyu proposed this idea, Director Zhang Qingyun beside him couldn't help but take a breath.

"It seems that I can't retire." (End of this chapter)
