In 1983, a small island started from a large farmer

Chapter 414 New House Acceptance

the next day.

When Li Duoyu opened his eyes, the sun was already very dazzling, and Zhou Xiaoying and Xiao Tutu had already gotten up.

I heard from Xiaoying last night that Dandandao Primary School and Chenjiacun Primary School are currently discussing the merger of schools, and their teachers are quite busy.

After getting up, Li Duoyu came to the courtyard wearing a vest and a pair of shorts and stretched his waist. As a result, a gust of wind blew over and it was already a little chilly.

Unexpectedly, it has only been one day, and Dandan Island seems to have entered "autumn" directly. People in the south like them do not have the concept of autumn. There is a slight temperature difference between morning and evening. It is still very hot at noon, especially when the autumn tiger comes. Heat stroke.

When Li Duoyu squatted on the stone strips and brushed his teeth, he could vaguely hear the sound of chants coming from the sea.

"Hoo ho ho,

Ho ho. "

Li Duoyu followed the sound and looked over, finding someone driving piles not far from the shore.

After seeing the familiar fishing boat, Li Duoyu immediately knew who the pile driver was.

The ex-factory price of this thing is very high. It costs at least 700 yuan per ton. A single steel bar plus freight costs 4,000 yuan.

It’s the busiest season for fishermen again.

"At least ten or twenty thousand."

The iron gate is open.

Marine creatures have already finished giving birth. After their bodies have been hollowed out, most of them are busy gaining weight.

After walking two steps, we arrived at the new house.

Can enter autumn.

To be honest, with so many people raising kelp together, Li Duoyu felt that the awesomeness he boasted in front of the big boss had finally come true.

Li Duoyu had a simple breakfast.

I heard from my uncle Chen Dongqing that most of the kelp farmers made money last year.

The prices of 325# and 425# cement are 80 yuan and 90 yuan per ton.

Because at this time, most marine organisms are busy holding their babies, and the nutrients in their bodies are transferred to the next generation, resulting in the taste not being so good.

Last year, the kelp farming area in their village was about 500 acres, and this year it increased to 1,000 acres. The Chenjia Village next door also has more than 300 acres.

Li Duoyu glanced at the calendar hanging on the wall, and before he knew it, it was mid-October.

The total of these items alone is more than 8,000, in addition to red bricks, ceramic tiles, white ash, glass, etc.

During the period of building the house, my father was helping me. Even the cost of building the house was reconciled by my second brother with Master Cao.

Grandma, Xiao Tutu, Xiao Pangdun, Zhang Lin, and Zhang Yun are all here in the new house.

In fact, apart from the preliminary design and purchase of building materials for this house, Li Duoyu really didn't worry much.

The cheaper building materials are gravel and river sand, and the available quantities are quite large. The freight is not cheap on average.

According to the data registered by my uncle alone, the kelp farming area in Xiasha Village has more than doubled this year.

Another month or so.

Not the same.

The shipping fee cost nearly 500 yuan.

Because everyone who raised kelp on Dandan Island made a lot of money last year, this year many villagers followed suit.

"That should be there."

After seeing Li Duoyu arrive, my aunt said with envy: "Duoyu, your house is really the most beautiful on the island. It's much prettier than Wang Dapao's house. How much did it cost?"

However, there is still a long way to go before we can build a first-class brand and make kelp bigger and stronger.

For example, I bought nearly five and a half tons of rebar. I refused to sell it to them at first, but later I asked Zhao Jialu for help.

Until now, Li Duoyu only knows some big-ticket purchases.

Master Zhang's business has been very good in the past two years. In addition, the piles they drive are very stable. There are many farmers who ask their team to drive piles. Now if you want to hire them, you have to make an appointment one month in advance.

The total kelp farming area in Shangfeng Town totals more than 4,000 acres.

And this is also the reason why these months are chosen for the fishing ban period.

Grandma was cleaning with a dustpan and a broom. Li Haoran and Zhang Lin were also helping. Little Tutu was also holding a broom. It was unclear whether he was helping or causing trouble.

In addition to them, my aunt and some relatives also came to help, mainly to help clean up the construction waste inside.

Cement is almost 3,500.

More than half of the cement was used to build the foundation, plus the second layer of slabs, wall building, and courtyard paving, a total of 600 bags of cement were used.

In addition, the temperature in winter is relatively low, and the meat rots slowly. There is no red tide in autumn and winter, so you don’t have to worry about diarrhea when eating seafood.

Li Duoyu discovered that in this era, the cheapest thing is artificial.

Speaking of which, summer is the off-season for coastal fishermen. Except for squid and jellyfish, there are not many seafood to catch.

Li Duoyu frowned and thought for a moment: "Master Cao, I haven't reconciled the account with me yet, so I don't know how much it is."

Autumn and winter are the seasons when seafood is most delicious. Swimming crabs, hairtail fish, oysters, and all kinds of shellfish are at their fattest.

Master Cao and his two apprentices worked for more than half a year, and the labor cost was less than 2,500 yuan.

Li Duoyu did a rough calculation.

If you add the sofa, TV cabinet in the hall, beds, chairs and cabinets in each room, there are also refrigerators and washing machines.

Once this house is completed, it will cost at least thirty thousand yuan.

Nowadays, his house is unique on Dandan Island because he is the only one on the island with exterior tiles and large sliding glass.

Looking from a distance, the house with tiles is theirs.

There is a cement road in the middle of the courtyard, which is directly connected to the entrance steps. There is an open space on the left side, which can be used for growing vegetables and flowers.

On the right side, several firewood rooms were built specifically to store various firewood and various fishing gear.

There is a spacious hall on the first floor, about 40 to 50 square meters. Next to it is the kitchen. When the time comes, there will be no problem for more than ten people to eat here.

Li Duoyu built a bedroom on the first floor specifically for his parents.

If they plan to come over, leave this room for them. If they don't want to come over, just change it into a guest room so that the eldest brother and sister-in-law can have a place to sleep when they come back in the future.

Li Duoyu thinks that there is a high probability that his father and mother will not come to live here. Lao Li just wants to build a new house, but if he actually lives in it, he will probably prefer his old house.

This was the same for Li Duoyu. After the new house was built, he was not particularly excited. On the contrary, he was a little reluctant to part with the old house.

After arriving in the room, Li Duoyu briefly inspected the construction craftsmanship and found that Master Cao's craftsmanship was really good.

Every brick is aligned neatly and the details are very well done. It cannot be said that the masters of this era are particularly good.

It can only be said that Master Cao has a good reputation, and he said from the beginning that his house will be a benchmark.

From the beginning, every link is strictly controlled. If the workmanship is not up to standard, it will be redone.

Li Duoyu took a wooden ruler and measured several locations. The walls were almost vertical and not tilted.

Unlike previous lives, those decoration companies were only thinking about making money from the owners, especially acquaintances.

There is a saying that no matter how good of a friend you are, if you invite them over for decoration, they will eventually break up.

There is a small hall and three bedrooms on the second floor. The master bedroom is occupied by Li Duoyu and Zhou Xiaoying, a secondary bedroom is for little Tutu when he grows up, and the other one is reserved for little Rong.

If she brings someone back one day, the two of them really won't be able to sleep in her small room. There is nothing in the house now, it looks empty, but Li Duoyu thinks this one hundred square meters is really big.

The house his son bought in his previous life had a property area of ​​100 square meters, but after deducting the share, the actual area was less than 85 square meters, which was a full room missing.

The rooftop space is quite large and can be used to dry fish and clothes. There is also a shrine here to worship Mazu.

There is also a storage tank of nearly two cubic meters. Iron pipes are laid to the well. When there is no water, the water pump can be started directly to pump the well water here.

When Li Duoyu accepted the new house, Master Cao also rushed over after learning the news.

"Director Li, are you satisfied with this house?"

Li Duoyu said with a smile on his face, "I am very satisfied. Master Cao's skills are the best. You have worked really hard during this period."

After saying that, Li Duoyu took out a big red envelope from his pocket and handed it to Master Cao.

"This is impossible."

Master Cao pushed the red envelope back: "To be honest, this is my first time to build such a big house. I am very grateful that you are willing to give me a try on this house. I am embarrassed to accept your red envelope."

Seriously, I should give you a red envelope. You taught me how to lay the foundation and pour the cement. "

Seeing Master Cao's firm refusal, Li Duoyu did not force him to give him another red envelope.

Master Cao said with emotion: "After your house was built, many people came to me and asked me the cost of this house. After I told them, they all scared away."

Li Duoyu said: "Don't worry. In a few years, everyone may have money. By then, you won't be able to build all the buildings you want."

Master Cao smiled.

It is not difficult for Li Duoyu to make tens of thousands of yuan a year, but for ordinary fishermen, they don't even have a fishing boat, so how can they have the money to build a new house.

However, Master Cao didn't expect it at all because he helped Li Duoyu build this house.

In the next few years, there will be an endless stream of wealthy people coming to him to build houses throughout Shangfeng Town and even the county, and his construction period will even be scheduled to two years later.

Because most of the people who came to visit Li Duoyu were wealthy people.

After looking at the house, Li Duoyu wanted to go directly to the town and meet Secretary Chen first. Unexpectedly, after arriving at the pier, he realized that he had encountered an astronomical tide.

The sandy bottom of the shelter was exposed. His fishing boats and sampan boats were all lying there, and passenger ships were temporarily unable to dock.

Looking from a distance, you can vaguely see that Li Duoyu's oysters hanging on the tidal flats are exposed to the water.

There were many people gathered at the pier who were going to the town to attend the fair, not only from Xiasha Village, but also from Chenjia Village.

Most villagers don't bring much money with them when they go to the fair. Instead, they carry various kinds of dried fish on their backs. When the time comes, the money from selling the dried fish can be used to buy other things.

There is a middle-aged man nicknamed "White Pig" from Chenjiacun. His full name is Chen Baishu (zhu).

Atractylodes is a kind of traditional Chinese medicine, but many people on the island don't understand it, so they just call him "White Pig".

Li Duoyu really knows this person. Whether now or in his previous life, this person is very low-key and polite.

Specializing in selling various marine Chinese medicinal materials, including dried seahorses, abalone shells (cassia), jellyfish, fish brain stones, etc.

Fishermen who don't know the market conditions often laugh at him, saying no one wants these things.

But Chen Baishu always smiled: "Earn a little money and support your family."

Only Li Duoyu knew that this person was not making a small amount of money. This person was most likely to have slipped through the cracks in the island's statistics on households worth tens of thousands of dollars.

"Director Li, would you like to have a cigarette?"

Li Duoyu smiled: "No need, you should make a lot of money selling these medicinal materials."

"What kind of money do you make? It's all a small business, barely enough to support your family."

Li Duoyu thought this person was quite interesting, so he said, "I know Manager An from Rongcheng Commodity Distribution Company. Do you want to meet him?"

Chen Baishu was stunned for a while, and then said unambiguously: "Yes, of course I do, I can only dream about it."

"If I have a chance, I'll introduce you to him."

"Thank you so much, Director Li. I don't even know how to thank you."

Chen Baishu still feels like he is dreaming. In fact, he does not lack Chinese medicinal materials, but he lacks sales channels.

In the years since the resumption of business, he has indeed made a lot of money selling various Chinese medicinal materials from the sea, but he is afraid of being imitated by others, and is also afraid of being borrowed by relatives.

Even if I make money, I don't dare to say anything, and the food at home is very poor.

Selling Chinese medicinal materials is really hard work. He has no channels and has to rely on his own feet.

It takes about ten days to go out. Just like those barefoot doctors, he also runs around carrying Chinese medicinal materials. If he comes across a pharmacy, he will ask about it.

Sometimes, in order to go to the village to sell medicinal materials, it is common to walk for two or three days. It is common to sleep in a broken house and live in the Diggong Temple.

He had wanted to cooperate with a big company with sales channels for a long time, but as a result, they ignored him at all and didn't even get a business card.

I finally bought one from my second brother, but when I called, I didn't expect to meet a scammer, but I was defrauded of more than 100 yuan of medicinal materials.

Surprisingly, Li Duoyu met Li Qingguang at the dock. He brought an iron shelf, bottles and cans, as well as a pile of charcoal and oysters.

Li Duoyu glanced at it and knew what he was going to do.

After meeting Li Duoyu.

Li Qingguang smiled and said hello: "Brother, you have to go out too."

Li Duoyu said: "I want to go to the town committee."

Sometimes, growing up happens in an instant. If I remember correctly, Qingguang is seventeen years old this year and will be an adult in another year.

When I saw him last year, he looked very childlike and full of childishness. But after returning from this trip, I found that the beard on Li Qingguang's mouth had obviously increased. He looked much more mature, and his voice had also changed.

"How is the grilled oyster business lately? Have you made any money?"

Li Qingguang grinned and said, "It's not bad. I've made more than two hundred yuan in the past few months."

"That's pretty impressive. I'm quite worried that you'll lose money in business."

Li Qingguang scratched his head in embarrassment.

"During this period, I have been attending night school well. My sister-in-law has taught me mathematics. Now I can directly calculate addition and subtraction within two digits orally."

"So awesome."

"If you don't believe me, give me a test."

Li Duoyu frowned and thought for a moment. A pound of oysters costs twelve yuan. I buy twelve pounds. How much is the total?

Li Qingguang was stunned for a moment.

"Twelve plus twelve equals twenty-four, plus twelve equals thirty-six."

After counting, Li Qingguang lost his mind and said with a grimace: "Brother, I have never done such a big business. Besides, how can a pound of oysters be sold for twelve yuan?"

Li Duoyu smiled and said: "For those twelve pieces of oysters, if you buy ten catties, it will be counted."

Li Qingguang smiled and said:

"I can do this, one hundred and two."

"Then don't sell twelve kilograms at one time, split it into two sales, one time for ten kilograms, and the other time for two kilograms."

Li Qingguang suddenly realized: "I calculated it, is it one hundred and forty-four?"

Li Duoyu nodded: "That's right."

"Brother, your algorithm is so powerful. If I encounter big money in the future, I will forget it. I don't have to be disliked by the other party anymore."
