In 1983, a small island started from a large farmer

Chapter 240 I finally have a TV at home
Li Niantian counted the money.

Since the color TV did not sell for the expected price and he could not get the two thousand and four, he went back to his room and took out ten big coupons and added them.

"Duoyu, there is 700 yuan here, would you like to order it?"

"No need." Li Duoyu put the money in his trouser pocket on the spot and said, "Uncle, I have moved the TV."

The uncle smiled and said: "Move it, it's yours now. Remember to give me the key to the fishing boat later. I will try to drive the boat back to you today."

"OK, no problem."

When Li Duoyu unplugged the color TV, the cousin's family was full of reluctance, especially their two children, who made faces at Li Duoyu.

"Uncle Duoyu, the bad guy, robbed my TV."

Li Shuguang picked up a feather duster on the spot and said, "You two are going to rebel. Let's see if I don't spread your butts today."

Seeing dad pick up the feather duster, the two naughty kids ran away.

"These two bastards have always been the same."

Li Duoyu smiled: "This is normal. It seemed to be like this when I was a child."

Li Shuguang said seriously: "When you were a child, you were much worse than the two of them."

Li Duoyu smiled awkwardly, and then picked up the Toshiba color TV. I didn't expect it to be quite heavy.

Li Shuguang also helped him pick up the matching receiving antenna: "I'll get this for you, and I'll help you install it later."

On the way home after carrying the color TV, some children in the village, whose faces were red from the cold and had runny noses, came running over to watch.

"What a big TV."

"Haoran, your uncle finally bought a TV. From now on, we will go to your uncle's house to watch TV."

"I want to watch "Smart Ikkyu"."

"I want to watch a science fiction movie at ten o'clock in the morning."

A group of children were discussing excitedly, but Li Haoran was a little depressed and poured cold water on them.

"Have you forgotten who our class teacher is?"

After hearing this, the group of children froze in place, motionless.

Shitou, who was about to go out to sea for fishing, saw Li Duoyu moving the TV with an envious expression: "Brother Yu, where did you buy this TV?"

Li Duoyu replied: "It's second-hand, bought from someone else's house."

"Here, you, the richest man in the village, are buying a second-hand TV. It's too cheap. By the way, it's black and white or color."

"Colorful."

Shitou chuckled and said, "Colorful ones are great. From now on, I will go to your house to watch TV. Don't chase me away then."

Li Duoyu smiled and said, "No problem. Come to my eel factory and work for free for a few days, and then I'll let you watch the TV for free."

"Damn, we are so familiar with each other. I contributed at least 300 yuan to your overseas fishing business. Can you please stop being so picky?"

Li Duoyu looked disgusted: "Didn't I make you four or five hundred? You should thank me. I suddenly feel that the fishing position is only thirty per day, which is a bit too cheap. How about raising the price to forty?" .”

Li Shuguang on the side suddenly said seriously: "I also think it's time to raise the price. It seems that no one who comes to fish has ever suffered a loss. Two days ago, Zhao Dahai and Zhao Erniu encountered a school of fish. After deducting the fishing fee, the two People also made 80 yuan.”

After hearing this, Shitou panicked instantly.

"Brother Yu, I was wrong. Don't raise the price. I rely on fishing to get a wife."

When passing near the pier.

Some fishermen who came to the pier early looked at Li Duoyu with envy and said hello.

A group of elderly fishermen couldn't help but sigh: "Duoyu has really changed a lot. Now that he is so rich, he still buys a second-hand TV. If I had as much money as him, I would definitely buy a new one."

Another fisherman laughed:
"If I had as much money as him, I would have built a three-story house, and I would have married two wives."

"Hahaha, just blow it."

"Well, I heard from others that the colder the winter, the better the kelp will be. The people who raise kelp will probably get rich again this year."

"It's a pity that I wasn't brave enough at the beginning, and I was screwed a lot by abalone farming. Otherwise, I would have to raise kelp with many fishes to sell iron." Lao Zhuang couldn't help complaining: "You hindsight, you didn't know it at the beginning. Who said you can’t grow kelp?”

Everyone laughed awkwardly.

"It's not like Chen Atai from Chenjia Village was deceived."

"Forget it, it doesn't make much sense to talk about this now."

"It's better to fish hard. I heard that the cold storage and ice factory at the pier are already half-built. We fishermen will have ice tomorrow summer."

"Then the sales of our seafood will be great."

"So, I plan to build a small fishing boat next year. When I make money from fishing, I will learn how to do fish farming."

After Li Duoyu moved the color TV home, everyone in his family was shocked.

Chen Huiying frowned and said, "You spent so much money on that eel factory. If you don't save some money, why would you buy a TV?"

Li Duoyu was about to answer.

Li Shuguang responded first: "Aunt, my aunt's family took the TV to pay off the debt. It really wasn't bought by Duoyu."

Chen Huiying sighed: "Well, it seems that the fishing boat will be returned to them."

Li Shuguang nodded: "Well, my father will sail the boat back today."

"It's a pity."

After hearing this, Li Shuguang smiled awkwardly, I bet you are thinking about my aunt's fishing boat, but both sides are relatives, so he couldn't say anything.

Zhou Xiaoying was originally worried about money and felt there was no need to buy a TV. But she didn't feel so worried after learning that someone else used it to pay off debts.

However, she found a troublesome thing, that is, their home is too small: "Duoyu, our home is so small, where can we put the TV?"

Li Duoyu frowned. When he was buying a color TV, he forgot to think about this problem. Their house was in a courtyard, and the room was the smallest. There wasn't even a living room, so there was no place to put the TV.

Li Shuguang chuckled and said, "There are so many fish. If you really don't have any place to put them, you might as well sell them to me cheaply. One thousand and five dollars. I'll take them on the spot."

Old Hu next door also joked: "Duoyu, my house is very big, if there is no place to put it, you can put it in my house."

"My living room is big enough to fit in my house."

"You have a pretty good idea."

Li Duoyu thought about it and finally decided to put the TV at his father's house for the time being.

Followed by.

He and Li Shuguang tied the outdoor antenna to a bamboo, erected it against the wall, and fixed the bamboo with wires.

In this era, cable TV has not yet become popular. If people want to watch TV, they usually rely on outdoor antennas to receive signals.

In places like Dandan Island, under normal circumstances, you can only receive up to three TV channels.

CCTV, provincial and local channels.

In this era, most provincial and local stations, in addition to some local news and weather forecasts, also broadcast CCTV.

However, due to the special geographical location of Dandan Island, we only need to do some tricks with the outdoor antenna and put a few cans on it to enhance the signal.

You can receive the signal of the TV station across the sea. Unfortunately, in this era, it is illegal to listen to enemy stations. If you are reported, you may be arrested and taken to political classes.

Because the TV station on the opposite island, in addition to showing some good-looking TV dramas and entertainment programs, will occasionally intersperse some brainwashing programs and broadcast some video content prohibited in the mainland.

As the village director, it is impossible for a young man with a high level of consciousness to listen to the enemy station who is preparing to apply to join the organization.

In fact, one CCTV is enough to watch. For people nowadays, entertainment needs are really very low.

Even the commercials are watched with gusto by everyone, not to mention the imported TV series "Blood Doubt" which is very popular recently and only airs one episode a week.

Li Duoyu remembers that in a year or so, video recorders will sweep the entire domestic market.

At that time, a whole new industry will even be derived.

Various video halls will appear in the streets and alleys of the city, playing various Hong Kong films and movies during the day, and at night, they will play some colorful films.
