In 1983, a small island started from a large farmer

Chapter 35 Preparing to go to sea (for further reading)

After Li Duoyu came to the third uncle's house, he found that it was really different from other people's houses.

At this time, most people across the country were still struggling to get enough food and clothing, but his family had entered the age of electrical appliances.

Ceiling fans, imported three-purpose machines, double-door refrigerators, Hitachi color TVs, double-cylinder washing machines and leather sofas.

Based on Zhou Xiaoying's salary, the total cost of these electrical appliances is estimated to take ten years without food or drink to afford it.

The third uncle's house, in this day and age, is already a proper "ten thousand yuan household". If the money is not clean, it is estimated that they will hang big red flowers, set off firecrackers, and publish newspapers to celebrate.

After Li Duoyu entered the room, as soon as he sat down on the leather sofa, the third uncle picked up the electric pot (hot water kettle) to make tea, and asked:

"Duoyu asked you something, did your little uncle Chen Dongqing tell you that there will be big moves from the top during this time?"

Seeing the third uncle asking this, Li Duoyu understood somewhat. He told Li Yujun that he would not sell the goods, but in fact, he still had plans.

Li Duoyu told him the actual situation directly:
"It is true that there will be a big move soon, and almost all the people are in place, and there is only one big opportunity to catch it."

Hearing the news, Li Zhengfa's hands trembled unconsciously: "Is this news reliable?"

Li Duoyu sighed:
"Third Uncle, to be honest, I didn't intend to persuade you. If you really think that the conference was just for us to watch, then just pretend I didn't say anything."

The third uncle frowned directly, after thinking for a while.

"Forget it, during this period of time, I really feel that something is wrong, so I might as well avoid the limelight first."

And Li Duoyu really wanted to tell his third uncle that no matter whether you avoid the limelight or not, you will be targeted in the end.

People like him who are big sellers and those who are jealous of him in Dandan Island can form a company. When the crackdown comes to their village, he will definitely be liquidated, and he won't be able to escape at all.

But if you stop now, it will be much better than being caught at the scene of taking the goods. Remember that those who were caught at the scene will be sentenced more severely.

In the previous life, the luck of the third uncle's family was pretty good.

I was never caught at the scene, but I was still reported. Later, I took out all my family assets and confiscated all imported electrical appliances at home, so I was not arrested and sent to jail.

Li Zhengfa sighed, and then said:

"By the way, Duoyu, your kelp probably didn't sprout so quickly."

"Not yet, it will be around the end of October."

"That's quite a long time. Is it just the season for swimming crabs? If I don't sell them, I might go to sea to get some swimming crabs first. If you don't have anything to do these days, why don't you come over and help for a few days? I'll pay you according to the day."

Li Duoyu's eyes lit up. He really planned to find something to do during this vacant period. It was impossible to weave and mend the net, and Lao Li's sea oyster field couldn't make any money.

I also thought about Uncle San before.

But the third uncle really earns too much.

Li Duoyu wasn't even sure if the third uncle would come to earn this hard-earned money, but he didn't expect him to mention it today.

"It shouldn't be a big problem, by the way, uncle, how long does it usually take for you to go to sea?"

The third uncle thought for a while: "If you are near the sea, the trip will take about five or six days. Where the fishing boats catch, they will be sold directly at the nearest wharf."

"For five or six days, it shouldn't be a big problem, but I have to go back and discuss it with my family."

The third uncle nodded: "If you come, uncle will pay you five yuan a day."

"That can't be done. You can't break everyone's rules. Take as much as you want, and I don't want to take advantage of you."

"That's okay. The fishing boat will set off in the next two days. If you plan to go, hurry up and prepare. Bring an extra set of clothes, a small quilt, and everyone sleeps on wooden boards. The conditions are very difficult. You have to be mentally prepared."

"I know this."

After chatting with the third uncle, Li Duoyu glanced at the room next door. Grandma still closed the door, and she didn't plan to come out to see him.

In fact, Li Duoyu doesn't have many memories related to her at all. Grandma hardly goes out because her feet are bound, and she only mends fishing nets at home.

From childhood to adulthood, Li Duoyu saw her only a handful of times. To be honest, he used to hate this old lady, because she had never been nice to anyone in their family.

And in his previous life, when he was in prison.

The old lady got Alzheimer's and passed away in a few years.

Li Duoyu didn't know whether her relationship with Lao Li was repaired in the end, but Li Duoyu felt that it was unlikely.

Because among all Grandma's children, his father Li Zhengtian's temper is the most similar to hers, they are all the hard, smelly and ugly ones.

And just when Li Duoyu was about to leave home.

The old lady's door opened.

The old lady still had an unhappy face, but she walked up to him with something in her hand.

"If you go out to sea together, you can take this thing. After all, you are also the seed of our Li family, and everyone has one."

After the old lady stuffed the thing into Li Duoyu's hands, she immediately went back to the room and closed the door again.

And Li Duoyu looked at the silver longevity lock in his hand, and frowned on the spot. This lock is not new, but a few years old, and there are two small characters under the word "Longevity".

"Many fish."

Seeing this, Li Duoyu was a little lost.

In the previous life, Li Duoyu didn't give her any chance, and the old lady couldn't take this step, but in this life, it seems a little different.

The third uncle patted Li Duoyu on the shoulder.

"Take it away, and don't compete with her, the old lady seems to have a bad memory recently."

Li Duoyu glanced at the door of the old lady's room again, then put the longevity lock in his trouser pocket, and left the third uncle's house.

To be honest, he was a little at a loss when the old lady made such a sudden move, but the person who tied the bell had to be untied, and they had to solve it by themselves in the end.

After returning from my third uncle's house.

Li Duoyu handed over the longevity lock to Zhou Xiaoying, which shocked her.

"When did you unlock this lock?"

"I'll go to my third uncle's house, and the old lady will give it to you."

Zhou Xiaoying froze on the spot, unable to react for a long time: "Is it Grandma?"

"Anyone else but her."

Zhou Xiaoying still didn't believe it, because it was even more inconceivable than Li Duoyu's sudden change of temper.

"What else did the old lady tell you?"

"I didn't say anything, after giving me the lock, I went back to the room."

Next, Li Duoyu said to Zhou Xiaoying:
"By the way, I have something to discuss with you. Next, I plan to go out to sea with my third uncle to catch swimming crabs. It may take half a month."

After hearing this, Zhou Xiaoying was stunned, and frowned for a while, but after a while, she asked calmly, "When are you going out?"

"It should be only these two days."

Zhou Xiaoying suddenly said seriously:
"Then you should have a good rest these two days, go to bed early, and stop tossing around, or you will be very tired when you get on the fishing boat."

Li Duoyu is also very obedient.

He went directly to the well to take a shower, washed his whole body, and closed the bedroom door after returning.

Then, turn off the lights.
