In 1983, a small island started from a large farmer

Listen to Zhang Defa's description.

Li Duoyu knew that "Blue Tears" was coming.

In this era, there is no such thing as "blue tears". It seems that the term "blue tears" was deliberately beautified in previous lives for the purpose of tourism.

Because blue tears often erupt on the eve of the Hungry Ghost Festival, many old fishermen call them "will-o'-the-wisps on the sea."

Thinking that the "good brother" is back.

In addition, when blue tears break out, fish and shellfish will die, and fish catches will also be significantly reduced.

The old fishermen all thought that the "good brothers" had eaten the souls of those fish and shellfish.

So if blue tears break out.

Fishermen do not go out to sea at night.

And as soon as it gets dark, parents will call all their children back and prevent them from playing outside.

Li Duoyu, who has lived two lifetimes, naturally knows what "blue tears" are all about.

Speaking of which, Li Duoyu really has to thank the short videos. Without these short videos, he might not know what blue tears are.

In fact, blue tears are mainly caused by two kinds of luminous marine plankton, "Historia striata" and "Noctiluca".

"Historch's Sea Firefly" is a kind of ostracod that is so small that it can't be seen with the naked eye. They mainly live in shallow sea areas.

If there is blue light only near the beach and not elsewhere, then it is most likely caused by "blue tears" caused by sea fireflies.

The blue tears caused by sea fireflies are generally harmless, and farmers generally don’t need to worry.

What really scares farmers is the bright blue tears that appear as soon as a boat passes by.

Such blue tears are often caused by "Noctiluca", a type of marine dinoflagellate that emits blue light when stimulated.

But the really harmful thing is not noctiluca, it is just a signal before the red tide breaks out.

The appearance of Noctiluca often means there is a problem with the water body and the algae has begun to reproduce in large numbers.

Massive algal blooms can cause red tides, which can harm fish and shellfish.

For farmers like Li Duoyu.

When a red tide first breaks out, it's not scary.

What’s really scary is when algae die in large numbers after a red tide outbreak.

Because after algae dies, it will consume a large amount of dissolved oxygen in the water during its decomposition, directly causing fish and other marine life to die due to lack of oxygen.

It will also release a large amount of toxins and pollute the marine environment. In severe cases, the seawater will feel sticky to the touch and smell very fishy.

Just hearing that someone had diarrhea after eating shellfish, Li Duoyu already knew that there were already a lot of harmful algae in the sea water.

However, Li Duoyu did not panic.

Even if red tide kills his oysters, he's fine with it.

Going out to sea to fish is a reward from God.

And people like them who engage in breeding are competing with God for food, and the risks are naturally very high.

It is normal to have losses and wins.

There is no profitable business, and there is no breeding without problems.

Li Duoyu asked Zhang Defa: "How did you go in the exam? It's August, the results should be out."

Zhang Defa sighed:

"There are no problems with other subjects, but I didn't do well in foreign languages."

Li Duoyu frowned and said, "Didn't you pass the exam?"

Zhang Defa sighed: "It's not that I didn't pass the exam, it's just that the scores I got were not very satisfactory."

Li Duoyu frowned and said, "It's better if you just tell me what score you got and which school you went to."

Zhang Defa sighed: "It's more than five hundred, but I couldn't get into your sister's medical school. I only applied for Rongcheng Medical College."

Li Duoyu said in surprise: "More than five hundred is quite high. Besides, our Rongcheng Medical College is also a very good school. I thought you only took the exam for more than two hundred."

Zhang Defa said disgustedly:

"Don't compare yourself to me."

Those who study medicine know very well that powerful doctors and high-end equipment can only be accessed in the best schools.

Rongcheng Medical College is good, but compared with the school Xiaorong attended, the gap is still quite big.

Zhang Defa said: "By the way, I've been away for so long, but no other doctors have come to our island?" "There is a shortage of doctors now. There are not enough doctors in the health center. How can there be doctors coming to our island?"

Zhang Defa frowned and thought for a while: "If I am really admitted to Rongcheng Medical College, I will come back to help during the holidays."

As a village director, Li Duoyu naturally hopes that Zhang Defa will come back often to help with medical treatment.

But this is not good. After Zhang Defa graduates, he will definitely stay in Rongcheng as a doctor. Dandan Island still needs to find a doctor resident on the island.

Li Duoyu hummed:

"Don't think you are so important. When our village's economy develops, maybe doctors will rush to come to our village. By then, if you want to come back, I'm afraid there won't be any room for you."

Zhang De was stunned for a moment, and then smiled awkwardly. He felt that what Li Duoyu said was really possible.

"This year, our village has really changed a lot."

Li Duoyu said: "You just realized that when you graduate from college, our village may be filled with households worth ten thousand yuan, and every household will build a luxury house. By then, you will know that you are running on the wrong track."

Zhang Defa pursed his lips: "No matter how rich you are, what's the use? If you get sick, you have to seek treatment from doctors like us."

"That makes sense." Li Duoyu nodded and said, "By the way, Defa, I've been really sick recently. Please help me take a look."

Zhang Defa said doubtfully: "You look pretty good, you don't look sick."

Li Duoyu said seriously: "These days, my blood is surging and my lower abdomen is restless. I wake up every day like the sun is shining. I feel like I have a great force. I start having sex within two or three hours and I don't feel tired at all."

After hearing what Li Duoyu said, Zhang De, who was still single, had a dark face and took out a large syringe on the spot:

"Director Li, you are really sick. Come and take off your pants, and I will give you an anti-sex injection."

After seeing the big needle, Li Duoyu ran away: "Damn it, that needle of yours was used to kill pigs."

Zhang Defa squinted his eyes.

"It's just right to hit you pig."

Li Duoyu waved his hand.

"Let's go. Come to the village committee to make tea with me when you have time. It's a pity that you studied medicine. If you studied breeding, maybe I would be your teacher."

Zhang Defa frowned, not understanding what Li Duoyu was talking about.

……

When Li Duoyu returned home, Aniang had already prepared the meal.

Since the summer is relatively hot and there are a few more mouths, Aniang directly set up an Eight Immortals table and ate in the courtyard.

Xiaoying took Tutu to play in the courtyard, and her sister Li Shuihua, who had just given birth, came out to enjoy the cool air with her third child in her arms.

The eldest Zhang Lin and the second eldest Zhang Yun helped serve the dishes. When the two girls saw Li Duoyu, they said sweetly: "Third uncle, okay."

Li Duoyu touched their heads: "Are the people living on the island still used to it?"

The two little girls nodded and said, "It's much better than our village. No one dares to bully us here."

Li Haoran on the side sighed and murmured: "Your uncle is the village director, and your aunt is the school head teacher. Who dares to bully you, thank God if you don't bully others."

When the food was put on the table, Lao Li and his brother-in-law just came back carrying dustpans.

After seeing the two people coming back, the eldest and the second immediately stepped forward to help pack their things.

"Grandpa, are you thirsty? Do you want some tea?"

"Are your shoulders sore? Do you want me to give you a rub on your back?"

"no, I'm fine."

"These dustpans are full of dirt and very dirty. Don't touch them. Wash your hands and go eat."

Lao Li is very happy when he sees these granddaughters these days. He always had a straight face in the past, but since the arrival of these two granddaughters, his smile has obviously become more smiley.

Li Haoran, who had fallen out of favor a little bit, said flatly: "Two sycophants."

Li Duoyu, who had been paying attention to Little Fatty for a long time, walked over and touched his head.

"Haoran, you are the oldest of the new generation. You have to take good care of these younger brothers and sisters, you know."

Seeing his uncle talking to him, Li Haoran nodded happily: "Uncle, that's for sure. As long as I'm here, no one in our village will dare to bully them."

Li Duoyu looked at these nieces and liked them very much, and couldn't help but sigh: "It would be better to have a daughter."

Li Haoran on the side heard it.

He stood there for several seconds. (End of chapter)
