In 1983, a small island started from a large farmer

Li Duoyu originally thought that this installment payment would not be so smooth and would be choked by the leaders.

Unexpectedly, in less than three days, a leadership meeting was held at the agricultural machinery factory, and in the end, in order to increase sales, they actually agreed.

The credit union is faster. It has long been a headache because everyone is not enthusiastic about lending and cannot meet the loan quota above.

This time we hit it off immediately, and for a nominal fee, I agreed to be the middleman.

In order to make the installment payment and purchase procedures more convenient, the agricultural machinery factory and the credit union simply sent people to Dandan Island.

Over at the village committee, there are a few simple tables and chairs, and a banner of "Dandan Island Network Machine Procurement Conference", which is a simple service point.

A large number of fishermen gathered at the scene, and some people had already begun queuing up to apply for installment payment procedures for the net hoisting machine.

In the past, fishermen did not dare to take out loans. One reason was that they felt it was not necessary, and the other reason was that the private sector demonized loans.

What can I say? The interest rate is very high when the father borrows money and the son repays it. If the money is not paid, it will not only affect the job, but also affect the relatives and children.

Before applying, the fishermen asked most about matters related to the loan. Although there were instructions on the table, most of the people on the island were illiterate and could not understand them at all.

Director Zhang of the credit union, the first thing he did when he arrived on the island was to spread the knowledge about loans to everyone.

"Your installment payment is mortgaged, and the collateral is your network machine. If something unexpected happens... you really can't pay the money back, we will only take away the network machine, and we won't go to your house. The tiles will not affect your children, so folks, please rest assured."

However, not all fishermen can purchase net hoisting machines in installments. They must have a letter of introduction from the village committee.

In a sense, the village committee of Xiasha Village has to endorse this installment payment, so the review qualifications are quite strict.

Fishermen such as Lao Lu, Shitou, Zhao Dahai and Wang Jinshan, who have boats and diesel engines, naturally have no problem.

But some fishermen who don't even own a boat are definitely not qualified. For example, the "Stinky Foot" who specializes in selling dogs is also mixed in the crowd and wants to pay in installments to buy a net hoist.

After seeing him, village cadre Zhang Jinsha scolded him on the spot: "You bastard, you don't even have a boat, why did you buy a network machine?"

Stinky Feet said shamelessly: "If you don't have one now, it doesn't mean there won't be one in the future. I'll buy a net hoist first, and when I have a boat in the future, I can just put it on it."

Zhang Jinsha said with a dark face: "Hurry up, everyone in the village can get a loan, but you can't, next."

Seeing that he was driven away, Stinky Foot slapped the table on the spot and said, "You are discriminating, practicing individualism and abusing your rights."

I saw someone banging the table.

The nearby Shitou, Wang Jinshan, and Zhao Dahai all looked at him kindly.

After Director Liu was taken away for investigation, everyone soon learned that some time ago, Stinky Feet ran to Chenjia Village in the middle of the night and took a fishing boat from the next village to complain to the county. Only then did Director Liu be taken away for investigation. This thing.

It is said that Stinky Feet even volunteered to be the director of the planning committee of the island and take charge of *** affairs in Liu Xiuzhu's place.

Recently, Zhao Dahai, who was holding back his anger, looked at the smelly feet with a smile and hugged his neck.

"Stinky Feet, I heard that your dog meat is delicious. Would you like to treat your brothers to a feast?"

"Dahai, don't mess around."

Zhao Dahai squinted his eyes and said, "Who is messing around? I heard that your kid has been dancing a lot lately."

Shitou also geared up and cursed: "Although some people have a lot of dogs, they are really worse than dogs."

Wang Jinshan said: "Shall we do the same as last time? I'll get the sack first so that he doesn't know who hit him. That should be fine."

"sure."

Stinky Feet said in shock: "What do you want to do? There are so many leaders here, and you still don't care about discipline."

Li Duoyu, who was working, just glanced at it. As the village director, he said seriously: "Just have fun, don't go too far, you know?"

"Got it, we're very measured."

In addition to people from Xiasha Village, many people from Chenjia Village also came here to buy network machines.

Even Li Duoyu's cousin Liu Meifeng came over, but they only had one boat, not even a diesel engine.

Finally, the people in charge of the agricultural machinery factory and the credit union held a brief meeting and decided to pay in installments even for the diesel engines.

Over the whole day, more than 30 net lifting machines and more than 10 diesel engines were sold on Dandan Island.

The next day, technicians from the agricultural machinery factory were stationed directly on Dandan Island for a period of time to install and debug the net-raising machines for fishermen.

For a time, Dandan Island seemed to be injected with new vitality. Before dawn, everyone ran out to set nets for fishing.

Lao Chen, the owner of a second-hand fishing gear store, is laughing in his dreams these days, because just as he predicted, the more fishermen who buy net hoisting machines, the better sales of his sticky nets and ground cages.

"Old Chen, do you still have any goods? I'll bring you thirty floor cages."

"Yes, yes."

Seeing that everyone was using the net hoist, the villagers on the island who didn’t have a boat were all anxious.

Because they can clearly feel that the gap between Li Duoyu and Li Duoyu has become wider and wider in the past two years as village director. If he doesn't work hard to buy a boat, he will probably have to work for others.

After seeing the fishermen on Dandan Island using a net lifter to collect their nets, all the villages along the coast couldn't sit still.

Shangqi Village also bought it, and even the fishermen in Nanri Town also wanted to buy it. In less than a week, the agricultural machinery factory received more than a hundred orders.

It turned out that there were too few workers to complete the work, and there were not enough imported rubber pipes.

Later fishermen who wanted to buy a net machine were unable to do so even if they had cash in hand. Because of this and the installment payment concept he proposed, Li Duoyu once again appeared in the Rongcheng Daily.

And on the day it was published, the newspaper happened to appear on the boss's desk.

After reading the newspaper, the senior leader asked the secretary next to him: "This guy is quite good at twisting things."

Secretary Huang smiled and said: "No, people from the bank even came to see me. They said that this installment payment concept is good and may greatly increase farmers' enthusiasm for loans."

"This boy's trip to the island country was not in vain. In the second half of the year, he will have a trip to Hong Kong Island. I think he can go and see the world."

Secretary Huang nodded and said: "I will arrange it now. There is one more thing. The leader, Director Zhao, asked if the matter of the wind turbine has been finalized."

The big leader took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "I'm not in a hurry. Why is he in a hurry? If he asks again, just tell him, don't use the back door and act according to the rules."

"understood."

And during this period.

A red tide broke out.

The days when the outbreak happened to be the first few days of the Ghost Festival. Looking from a high place, it seemed like a huge red ribbon was floating in the sea.

The old man on the other side of the square looked at the red sea and sighed: "I haven't seen sea blood for a long time."

Some children asked: "What is sea blood? Is it delicious?"

The old man said disgustedly: "You know how to eat all day long. Sea blood is not for us to eat. It is specially eaten for us. Let me tell you, many people have died on our island before. Do you know why you have to go to Pudu?"

A group of children shook their heads.

Little Fatty grinned and said, "I know, it's to treat my good brother to dinner."

The old man nodded: "Yes, Pudu just wants to invite good brothers, but do you know why you want to invite good brothers?"

Little Fatty scratched his head.

"I don't know about this." The old man said calmly: "Let me tell you secretly, a big event happened that year. The first one was the sea relocation order. At that time, a village on our island was completely wiped out."

After hearing this, a child puffed his mouth and said angrily: "Braid Army, you are so bad."

The old man sighed: "They don't have the same ancestor as us, so we don't care how many of you die."

"Anyway, let me tell you, the sea blood has appeared, this year's Ghost Festival must be particularly fierce, and those who were killed back then will definitely come out to swim in the sea.

There is a 100% chance that something big is going to happen, so don’t go out at night to find out. "

"understood."

After hearing the story, Little Fatty was also frightened. Now he finally understood who Pudu was doing.

The old man in the village said this.

The children spread the word to each other, and at night, there was really not a single child to be seen on the other side of the pier. All of them were hiding under the covers and sleeping.

And with the emergence of red tide.

At night, the sea surface is particularly gorgeous, even the moonlight eclipses it. When the wind blows, the waves will even emit a faint blue light.

This is the largest blue tear Li Duoyu has ever seen.

In a previous life, Dandan Island would have been crowded with tourists, all the B&Bs would have been packed with people, and maybe even the beach would have been full of tents.

For tourists, blue tears are really beautiful, but for fishermen and farmers, they really hate this thing.

The day after the red tide broke out, just as the old people in the square said, something big happened.

There are a large number of dead fish floating on the pier, tidal flats, and beaches, with large white flowers undulating with the waves, and many of them have begun to rot.

Some old people frowned when they saw these dead fish and said, "The dead fish are all small fish. I'm afraid this year's harvest will not be good."

There are also some village women carrying bamboo baskets on their backs rummaging through the piles of dead fish, intending to pick up some fresh ones and go back to dry them into dried fish.

Marine fish that died due to red tide are poisonous, but Li Duoyu did not stop them from picking up fish. Their generation is accustomed to poverty, and it is difficult to change their "not wasteful" mentality.

Li Duoyu said to the village women:

"You can just pick up the fish and dry them in the sun. Be sure to clean the gills and intestines, otherwise they will be poisonous."

"I understand, village director."

Looking at the dead fish all over the pier, Li Duoyu went to the oyster field with anxiety.

When he pulled up the oysters, Li Duoyu smiled bitterly. This time, he was quite lucky. He won the bet, but he also lost the bet.

The winner is,

Not all the oysters are dead;

The loser is,

The oysters were half dead.

In order to prevent dead oysters from contaminating the breeding area, Li Duoyu had to hire people to knock out the dead oysters.

Lao Li, his second brother, Chen Wenchao, Zhang Mingsheng, and the villagers who came to watch, all fell silent when they saw the pile of oysters as high as a mountain, which could hold several boats.

Seeing these dead oysters, it felt like a basin of cold water was poured on their heads that day.

Li Duoyu had been telling them before that breeding was risky, but they still didn't believe it until they saw so many dead oysters.

They finally understood that breeding is not a profitable business. Just like fishing, they also rely on God for their livelihood.

Li Yaoguo and Chen Wenchao looked at the pile of dead oysters in front of them and suddenly recalled the scene of the first large-scale eel death.

After following Li Duoyu for a while, they finally realized how difficult it is to breed.

To be honest, if the things that happened to Li Duoyu in farming were done to other farmers, they would probably lose all their money.

This time, in addition to Li Duoyu, there was another victim on Dandan Island, Lao Sha, who was engaged in clam and razor clam farming.

Looking at the open-mouthed clams all over the beach, he was completely stunned. However, seeing that Li Duoyu had suffered more losses, Zhang Jinsha didn't seem to feel so uncomfortable.

"Let's go and invite you to drink."

Old Li said angrily: "Half of us are dead, how can you still be in the mood to treat us to a drink?"

Li Duoyu smiled and replied: "Dad, God is asking me to pay some tuition fees. Do I dare not to pay it?"

"Don't talk nonsense."

If he had seen so many dead oysters in his previous life, he would have been heartbroken and reluctant to part with them. In all likelihood, he would have boiled these dead oysters into oyster sauce, packaged them into traditional oyster sauce, and sold them to the rip-off to reduce losses.

But in this life, Li Duoyu felt it was unnecessary, because now he could afford to lose.

Next, he sold these dead oysters at a very cheap price to an old man in the village who specialized in burning oyster ashes.

After a group of people finished drinking.

Li Duoyu suddenly said: "I may not continue to be the village director."

After hearing this.

Zhang Jinsha, Li Shuguang, Li Yaoguo, Chen Wenchao and Shitou were all stunned.

"Brother Yu, are you kidding me?"

Li Duoyu nodded: "I'm not kidding, I'm giving you a vaccination in advance."

As the breeding business got bigger and bigger, he found that his energy was really not enough. If he had to run from both ends, he would be too busy.

Li Duoyu plans to submit his resignation application to the village committee after the wind power project is completed.

Next, he plans to become a farmer and become a teacher when he has time.

Originally, Li Duoyu ran for director of this village just to bring down the Wang brothers and allow Dandan Island to develop in a normal direction.

Now that the Wang brothers have fallen and Xiasha Village is on the right track, it is almost time for him to leave this position.

Li Duoyu also knew very well that Wang Dapao had wanted to leave his job before, and it was the village committee who deliberately prevented Wang Dapao from leaving.

Now, as long as he resigns, Wang Dapao will most likely also retire, and two positions will be vacant in the village.

After getting along with each other for more than a year, Li Duoyu feels that Zhang Jinsha and Tang Ping are good people, and his cousin Li Shuguang is also very responsible.

Even if he is no longer in this position, these people can still support him.

Seeing that Li Duoyu really wanted to resign, Zhang Jinsha, who had competed with Li Duoyu for village director, couldn't help but curse:

"Damn it, you have done such a good job as the village director. Now you won't do it if you don't want to. Who dares to be the village director now? Whoever becomes the village director will definitely be compared with you. If you don't find it appropriate, scold."

Li Duoyu smiled and said: "Lao Sha, why are you so anxious? I didn't tell you to resign now."

"If you don't resign, just tell me what you're going to do. When will you be ready to leave?"

"About that time."

After drinking some wine, Zhang Jinsha suddenly wanted to hit someone. (End of chapter)
