In 1983, a small island started from a large farmer

Shenjiamen Pier.

After Li Duoyu and his fleet docked, many fishmongers came close to them when they saw the "yellow sweet carp" in their baskets.

There are also many people watching.

"Huangganyu, I haven't seen you for a long time."

"This fish is now very valuable."

Someone made an offer on the spot: "Anything over twenty kilograms will be taken away for two yuan."

"I'll give you two dollars and a half."

A fishmonger immediately checked it and said with a frown, "That's not right. Why don't you fish have a swim bladder?"

Li Duoyu smiled and said: "When we docked, it was already bought by a boss."

"In this case, it's not two and a half dollars. For fish alone, I can only give you one and eight dollars at most."

Li Duoyu said: "Brother, two pieces is too little. The large yellow croaker is almost one piece. Besides, the swim bladder is not valuable. What everyone eats is fish meat."

"You are young and don't understand. This fish mainly eats its swim bladder."

Li Duoyu bargained:

"One yuan and eight yuan is really not good. There are really fewer and fewer fish. Over in Guangdong, they are now three yuan per pound. I have been fishing for so many years and I have only caught this net."

The corner of the fishmonger's mouth twitched: "How old are you? How many years can you fish?"

"When I was a child, I was in my mother's womb, so I went fishing with her, okay?"

The fishmonger realized that he couldn't compete with this young man. He glanced at the retail investors who were trying to ask for the price, and said reluctantly: "Okay, one yuan and nine for more than thirty kilograms, what do you think?"

The crew members were all dumbfounded. They thought it would only cost about a piece at most, but they didn't expect that the fish's swim bladder could be sold at such a high price after it was taken away.

The second uncle smiled brightly and said: "This guy Duoyu has a mouth full of profit and loss. I have never seen a fishmonger get a bargain from him."

Li Duoyu talked with the fishmongers for more than half an hour, and finally settled the deal according to the specifications.

Those weighing less than five kilograms are priced at the same price as large yellow croaker, eight cents.

One piece weighing less than five to ten pounds.

Ten to twenty pounds, one dollar and a half.

If it weighs more than [-] kilograms, it’s [-] yuan.

These yellow-lipped fish and Li Duoyu sold for more than 3000 yuan, plus the white catfish caught yesterday and various miscellaneous fish.

From this trip alone, the fleet earned nearly 4000 yuan.

Coupled with the fish bladder that Li Duoyu bought at a high price, the real income from this trip should be around [-].

The fleet has only been out for ten days.

They caught tens of thousands of pieces of seafood, which made the crew members a little confused. After some discussion, the three boat bosses decided to reward each crew member with 20 yuan.

"Ah." Chen Liang was dumbfounded.

His salary should be the lowest among the people in this boat, only three yuan a day. He made 20 yuan in vain at once, which made him so excited that his whole body was shaking.

"Dad, I really want to build a boat and rob the sea."

Chen Youquan said disgustedly: "You are more or less robbed by the sea. After coming to the dock so many times, how many boat owners do you think have caught yellow ganache?"

Chen Liang frowned and said, "Maybe I'm lucky, as good as that Duoyu."

"If you were lucky, you wouldn't have almost died at sea, and it would have cost me hundreds of dollars to rescue you."

Chen Liang muttered in a low voice: "Dad, let's put it another way. If I can come back alive, doesn't it prove that I am lucky?"

"You are so lucky. If Duoyu hadn't saved you, you would have died at sea."

"Dad, when we go fishing, can we not say such unlucky words?"

"Boy, have you been itchy lately?"

Chen Youquan raised his right hand, and Chen Liang ran away with his head in his right hand.

Chen Youquan smoked a cigarette.

Who doesn't want to have a fishing boat of their own, but many people only see the money-making side of the boat boss, and don't see the embarrassing look of the boat boss when he loses money.

The sea is not friendly to everyone, and it is not easy to be a boat boss. Once you have a boat, you have a lot to worry about.

If the fish luck is good, you can indeed make money, but if the fish luck is not good, you will probably have to work on the boat.

After selling the seafood from this trip, Li Duoyu decided to return to Dandan Island and had no intention of continuing to fish with the fleet.

After all, he has been out for ten days. The eel factory is there and he cannot leave for too long.

In addition, the company commander Zhang knew Director Li last night and was afraid that the other party would call him, which was really embarrassing.

Li Duoyu believed that Director Li would understand what was going on after hearing his name and would not embarrass him too much.

However, if something like this happens, you should still go back and say hello. After all, this is a major case. If it is really solved, the Shangfeng Town Police Station will also have to contribute.

This is one of the reasons why Li Duoyu decided to assume his identity.

If the incident really progresses.

Even if Li Duoyu's identity is exposed, Director Li in the town will 100% say: Although Li Duoyu is not on the job, he is our best brother.

Before Li Duoyu returned to the island, his third uncle settled the accounts for the past ten days, deducting the [-] he spent on the fish maw.

Li Duoyu went to sea for ten days.

One thousand nine hundred and three were also allocated.

Li Zhengfa kept some money for daily needs, and then asked Li Duoyu to take the money earned from this trip back to the credit union.

After all, this "Yellow Ganyu" network made them famous here at Shenjiamen Wharf.

Not afraid of thieves stealing, but afraid of thieves thinking.

After leaving Shenjiamen Fishing Port, Li Duoyu and Li Shuguang took turns sailing in different shifts and drove for nearly ten hours before returning to Dandan Island.

When we arrived at the pier, it was already past four in the morning and the water was rising.

There are many fishermen at the pier, preparing to go fishing.

Since the opening of the aquatic product processing plant at Qingkou Wharf, Dandan Island Wharf has become a lot deserted.Because after most fishermen catch fish, they sell it directly to the processing factory, and the processing factory has recently held activities. If you sell the fish to them, you can get ice tickets.

You can save a lot of money next time you buy ice cubes. Recently, everyone is stocking up on ice cubes just to prepare for the upcoming summer.

On the pier, Old Man Mi also woke up early. He smiled when he met everyone and said, "Old Zhang, if you have any good fish, remember to give it to me."

"Lao Lu, we are all so familiar."

"Oh, Director Li, why are you back?"

After Li Duoyu saw old man Mi, he smiled and said, "Why do you look so dark when you see me?"

Old Man Mi snorted: "With a black face, I'm being polite to you, but I still want to beat you up."

"You're so good, why do you want to hit me? Could it be that your grandson didn't do his homework and was fixed by my wife?"

Old Man Mi sighed: "Now we fishmongers know that you hired this aquatic product processing factory."

"Haha."

Li Duoyu laughed awkwardly.

He was still discovered. It seems that during this period, he will have to go to Qingkou Pier less.

Li Duoyu pursed his lips: "Lao Mi, you have made a lot of money these years, and your children are here on New Year's Eve. You might as well move to the city and enjoy your happiness."

"What a fool. When they get to the city, they want money for everything. It's a bottomless pit."

Li Duoyu was stunned for a moment. It seemed like this was really the case. In the village, he could only spend less than [-] cents a day.

But it's different in the city.

A house costs money, food costs money, children's education costs money, a car costs money, and tutoring costs money.
This reminded him of his previous life, when he worked hard in the island country for 20 years, and in the end he could only afford an ordinary house in a school district.

Sometimes when I think about it, I feel a little reluctant.

Li Duoyu felt that he would make money in the future. No matter where Xiao Tutu studied, he planned to buy two houses in the best school district.

After the ship arrived at the dock, the cousin Li Shuguang, who looked sleepy, went directly home to sleep. Although he was not the boss of the ship this time, he still got a small share of the money.

Li Duoyu looked at his watch.

It's only 04:30 in the morning.

At this time, Xiaoying and Xiao Tutu should be sleeping soundly.

During the days when he was away, the door must have been locked. If he went home at this time, he would wake up the mother and son.

Li Duoyu thought for a while, picked up the cloth bag containing the bundles of unity, and went to the eel factory first.

Here in the factory, the lights are always on after night.

As soon as Li Duoyu arrived at the eel factory, he made some noise, and the room used for night watch was immediately opened.

A thin young man with a harpoon in his hand rushed out of the door and shouted:

"who is it?"

After seeing Li Duoyu, Chen Wenchao said in surprise: "Brother Yu, when did you come back?"

"Your wife is still in confinement, so you won't stay with her and your daughter at night."

Chen Wenchao scratched his head: "I wanted to accompany her too, but Xiaolan kicked me out and she wouldn't let me accompany her."

After hearing this, Li Duoyu understood instantly. Obviously, a thin-skinned person like Xiao Chao should not have told the whole story.

Xiaolan probably meant that since he was away these days, he should have a good look at the eel factory.

Li Duoyu patted Chen Wenchao on the shoulder: "You have a good wife."

Under normal circumstances, confinement is a very important thing for women.

In later generations, when his daughter-in-law was in confinement, she wished she could treat the whole family as slaves, with her as the center of everything.

He also often loses his temper and often quarrels with his son. Whenever he quarrels, he yells that he wants to take the child back to his parents' home.

And Xiaolan can give priority to her man's work during confinement. You don't need to think about it to know that she is a very good woman.

Chen Wenchao grinned and said:
"Brother Yu, I know, Xiaolan is very good to me."

Next, Li Duoyu read the diary of the eel breeding pond.

Although the second brother is lazy and has no big ambitions, he is a bit very good, and that is the task assigned to him.

It's done clearly every time.

During the ten days he was away, the diary recorded in detail the data of the fish pond every day.

He took a rough look.

He felt that there was no big problem with these data, but he was still worried and went to the fish pond to inspect it himself.

Some eels were randomly caught from each eel pond to check the situation.

Fortunately, there are no problems, there are no infectious diseases, and the water quality is very stable.

Li Duoyu carefully observed the eel. It was obviously much bigger since the last time the islanders came to inspect it. It is estimated that it will reach the specifications for shipping in about another month and a half.

"Xiaochao, thank you for your hard work these days."

"Should be."

Li Duoyu took out the fish bladders that had not been completely dried from another bag.
"By the way, on this trip to the sea, I made some fish pickles for the yellow anchovy. You can take some back for Xiaolan to eat."

"Brother Yu, that thing is too expensive."

"Hurry and take it. This is for your wife, not you."

"It's really too expensive."

Li Duoyu said fiercely: "Take it, do you hear me? Others want it, but I don't want to give it to them."

Chen Wenchao struggled and said: "Then I will take one."

"One is enough for anyone. Take five and go. I just made them yesterday and they are still a little wet. When you go back, remember to dry them in a ventilated place and don't expose them directly to the sun. Do you know?"

"I know." (End of chapter)
