In 1983, a small island started from a large farmer

During this period, the roofs of every household on Dandan Island were drying anchovies, including Li Duoyu's family.

Although there are dried fish everywhere, the cats on the island dare not steal the things that the fishermen dry in the winnowing baskets.

For the cats on the island, some behaviors are ingrained in their genes. They know very well that if they are caught stealing food, they will be beaten to death.

Cats don't dare to steal food, but the greedy little cat Tutu doesn't care and often steals food in the yard.

One time when Zhou Xiaoying found out, the cloves drying on the winnowing basket had been eaten by him and a piece was missing. Naturally, he got a severe beating from his mother.

Zhou Xiaoying didn't feel sorry for Anchovy's money, it's just that this guy ate too many snacks and refused to eat.

Zhou Xiaoying did almost nothing throughout the summer vacation. She spent the whole day thinking about how to stuff food into the little guy's mouth.

It’s so worrying. It’s much harder to teach them than to teach them as students!

Li Duoyu used the leather goods that Zhou Xiaoying had sewn for him. Not to mention it was quite trendy. Others all hung keys around their waists.

He wore a "Second Brother" badge, and when he walked, everyone couldn't help but look at him.

Whenever the cell phone beeped, Li Duoyu would pick it up, put it to his ear and talk to the other party.

The posture of making the "phone call" is so handsome, just like those Hong Kong bosses seen on TV, making everyone feel itchy.

But as the news spread, it became wrong. The story that Li Duoyu was selling the Black Pearl cordless phone turned into that he was selling a "big brother mobile phone".

Quite a few people from the nearby waters came to Dandan Island to look for Li Duoyu. When they learned that it was not a big mobile phone but a black pearl, everyone was quite disappointed.

But after Li Duoyu's introduction, they learned that this thing does not require phone bills, and as long as the antenna is erected high enough, long-distance calls can still be made, and everyone was very tempted.

After all, this thing looks just like a mobile phone. Even if you use it near home, it makes you feel proud to hold it in your hand.

What surprised Li Duoyu a little was that the first person who came to him to buy black pearls was Tang Ping, who was also engaged in breeding.

In fact, Tang Ping is also very capable. Recently, he has even sold dried goods to the mainland. He has a shop at Qingkou Wharf, and people often come to his shop to ask about prices.

He often does breeding on Dandan Island, so it is very suitable for him to buy this cordless phone, which allows him to contact the store at any time.

The most important thing is that once this thing is taken out, it becomes a symbol of strength. Those customers who were originally hesitant might be willing to cooperate after seeing this big and thick thing.

After all, in this era, apart from cars, this thing is the best proof of one's status, much more impressive than the clothes they wear and the watches they wear.

The second person who came to him to buy it was Zhang Dongsheng from Langqi Village. However, this guy was very cunning and did not pay for the thing himself.

Rather, it is money raised by the village committee, which is said to be available to the whole village, but in reality, only the few village committees in their village can use it.

Li Duoyu did not set the price too high, just five thousand five hundred. If he sold one set, he could make about fifteen hundred, which was still a very profitable amount.

I heard from the salesman that some ruthless people who go to them to purchase goods directly sell them at import prices. No wonder those who dare to work hard and take risks have become rich these days. In less than two weeks, Li Duoyu sold seven sets and made a millionaire's income.

Liu Yun, who just joined the company, was really excited: "Brother Yu, is it selling so well? Should we go get some more?"

Li Duoyu thought about it and really wanted to go and purchase goods, but finally gave up. This market is indeed huge, but he would have to go there and advertise.

People in the nearby waters who wanted to buy it have probably already bought it from him. If he were to purchase more, there would probably be a backlog of goods.

Moreover, if too many of these things are sold in the same area, the signals will really conflict with each other. Li Duoyu doesn't want his conversation to be overheard by others.

It's okay to earn some extra money occasionally, but there's really no need to do it on purpose, and he already has a bamboo product export order.

Although Li Duoyu had not seen the world, he had seen many bosses who, after making money in their old business, started to invest recklessly. Their energy was too dispersed, resulting in nothing being done well.

The most important thing is that many people don’t know how to install this thing after buying it, so Li Duoyu has to go to their homes to install it personally, which is a waste of time. If it affects his shrimp farming, then it would be putting the cart before the horse.

When Old Lu found out that there was only one set left, he felt like ants were crawling on his body. Finally, he couldn't bear it any longer and ran to find Li Duoyu.

"Duoyu, do you have any more black pearls?"

"Yes, there is one last set left."

Li Duoyu looked at Lao Lu in confusion: "You are just fishing, not doing business, what's the point of buying this thing?"

Old Lu snorted, "Who said it's useless? I can chat with my grandson when I'm fishing at sea in the future."

Li Duoyu was stunned for a few seconds. Yanyan could still give birth. Besides, it might not be a grandson, but a granddaughter.

But Li Duoyu dared not say such words, because Old Lu had been laughed at for most of his life just because he had only daughters.

This is also one of the reasons why Lao Lu spent so much money to find a son-in-law.

"I can sell it to you, but if you don't think you can use it after you install it, I won't refund your money."

"Stop dithering like a woman. Give me the last one and help me install it."

"By the way, Duoyu, that leather accessory on your waist is very nice. Where did you buy it?"

"My wife did it for me."

"Can you ask Teacher Zhou to make one for me for free? I think it's pretty nice."

Li Duoyu rolled his eyes at him, then said, "Do you think it's possible?"

"He's so stingy. He made so much money from me, but he won't even give me a purse."

Old Lu was cursing.

But when it came to paying, he was quite prompt, right after installing the Black Pearl cordless phone for Lao Lu.

The mobile phone on Li Duoyu's waist started to ring, and Old Lu, who had just received the mobile phone, became nervous.

"What's going on? I just installed it and it started ringing. Who's calling me? How do I answer it?"

Li Duoyu was speechless: "It was my ringing, not yours."

Lao Lu was a little embarrassed: "Why are our voices all the same? If they ring at the same time, I won't know who to answer."

"I'll set it up for you later."

After Li Duoyu unbuttoned the leather goods, he took out his second mobile phone, stretched the antenna to its longest length, and placed it against his ear.

This time it was his uncle Chen Dongqing who called and said that there was a document sent from Rongcheng Compound, saying that it was given by the Japanese, and asked him to go over and take a look.

After his uncle said this, Li Duoyu already knew what it was. He calculated the time and it should be about time.

During the summer, Li Duoyu had a relatively easy time, mainly because of the four cooperating breeding experts.

The water color of each acre of shrimp pond is so beautiful that there is no need to worry unless there is a sudden bad weather or shrimp disease. But as soon as he arrived at the shrimp farm, his uncle followed the smell and came over. Now the four of them are definitely money-eating beasts.

Every time I came to see him, I had only one purpose, which was to ask for money.

"Duoyu, for our high-density breeding experiment, it's best to use a greenhouse. You have to approve the funding for this. We need to build an indoor cement pool, a complete set of water circulation equipment, and a greenhouse."

Li Duoyu rubbed his temples: "These are about the same, how much do they cost?"

"About fifty thousand."

The corner of Li Duoyu's mouth twitched. Although he made a lot of money from jellyfish and anchovies in the past two months, he couldn't afford to spend money like this.

There was indeed money in the company account, but Li Duoyu wanted to keep him for a week to let his uncle understand one thing: it’s not that I will approve it immediately just because you want the money.

"You and Brother Lei should write the entire project plan and feasibility report. After I read it, if I think it is feasible, I will allocate the funds next week."

Chen Dongqing's smile disappeared. Why did this guy suddenly become so formal? But what he said was right. It was Li Duoyu who gave them the green light before, and now they really had to comply with the regulations.

After Li Duoyu finished talking with Chen Dongqing, Chen Xiaoyan immediately gave him the document wrapped in brown paper.

After taking it apart.

As expected, these were the design drawings that Norio Oda had someone send him. There were a total of ten bamboo products, all of which Li Duoyu was familiar with.

There are bamboo lamps, but the item with the largest order volume is actually sushi rolls, with orders for 100,000 sets.

He is very familiar with this thing. It is indispensable in almost every Japanese restaurant. It is used specifically for rolling sushi and is also available in every normal household.

Although the unit price is a bit cheaper, only two yuan per set, it cannot withstand the large quantity.

The others are some small bamboo baskets, which are things that are easy to use in daily life.

On the contrary, there are not many orders for more elegant bamboo products, just some bamboo lamps and bamboo vases.

Moreover, each design drawing is drawn in great detail, and you can understand it even without reading the Japanese introduction below.

Their requirements are relatively high, and each step of the production process has relatively strict requirements. Bamboo products are required to be polished and waxed, and some are even required to be roasted and boiled in water. There cannot be defects such as burrs.

If this deal is done well, I can make a lot of money as a middleman.

What I am more worried about now is whether Brother Ou’s skills can keep up. Anyway, I will give him the design drawing first and let them make it according to the drawing.

Li Duoyu is quite familiar with these things, and he can be fully responsible for quality control.

It’s just that Dazhu Village is a bit far away. When Li Duoyu thought about having to walk to the village in such a hot weather, he didn’t want to move. It seems that he needs to earn more money to buy a car.

At this moment, Li Duoyu heard the sound of the phone ringing. After Chen Xiaoyan answered the phone, she immediately came to find Li Duoyu and said, "It's Manager Zhu from Xinyuan Aquatic Products Company calling."

Li Duoyu was stunned. In the past, it was Chen Yuansu who called him personally. Could it be that this woman had become more pretentious and started to have her assistant call him instead?

But come to think of it, Chen Yuansu's speed of making money is really beyond his reach. I heard from my eldest cousin Li Shuguang that her restaurants are getting bigger and bigger, and the business is getting better and better.

His fishing team can hardly keep up with the supply speed. If he doesn't continue to expand, Chen Yuansu will probably look for other suppliers.

In addition, after the original product distribution company was acquired by her, it is now developing better. Not only has it taken over the previous channels, but it is also developing better now.

There are many things circulating in the market, which are actually all operated by their company. Li Duoyu also heard that Chen Jiao, who previously went to a small fishing village to develop, is doing very well now.

In short, rich people like them who have connections and can make money will only get richer in this era.

Li Duoyu picked up the phone and said with a smile, "Hello, Manager Zhu, do you have any instructions?"

The person on the other end of the conversation said quickly, "Director Li, please don't make fun of me. I'm just a runner."

"It's like this, Director Li, didn't you borrow a car when you came to our No. 1 Courtyard before?"

Li Duoyu was a little curious. It had been a long time since this happened, so why did he suddenly talk about this matter? "Yes, was it because my car was damaged last time?"

"No, the car is in very good condition. I'll make it short. When the company was doing a financial inventory recently, we found that the car was rarely used, so our finance department planned to sell it at a low price. I just happened to think of your Minlong company and wanted to ask if you need a car?"

Li Duoyu was stunned for several seconds. He was just worrying about not having a car, but now someone wanted to sell him a car.

The Crown car that Li Duoyu had driven was indeed very new and looked rarely used. But that model of car was very expensive, even a second-hand one was not cheap.

He did make some money recently, but he really couldn't afford a luxury car. Compared to this kind of sedan, Li Duoyu wanted a four-wheeled agricultural vehicle with a large load capacity.

"I'm sorry, Manager Zhu, your car is too high-end. I may not be able to afford it."

After hearing this, the person on the other end of the phone suddenly became anxious: "It's not expensive, it's really cheap. If you don't have cash, you don't have to pay in a hurry, you can use the payment for the goods as collateral."

Li Duoyu was a little confused: "Are you in a hurry to sell this car, or is it because I borrowed it to transport patients before and Mr. Chen doesn't want it anymore?"

"No, absolutely not."

Zhu Sulan was so anxious that she was about to cry. She thought that Mr. Chen was just talking when they were on Ludao Island, but she didn't expect that he actually took it seriously.

When I was reporting on my work yesterday, I specifically asked how the cars were selling.

When Zhu Sulan heard this, she flew into a rage. It was impossible for Mr. Chen to feel that he was not losing money and for the people in the company to have no objections. So, she had to take the blame for some things.

Just now when Director Li said he didn't want a car, she was really anxious.

She'd better sell the car to Li Duoyu at a low price, otherwise her future life would not be easy.

As long as she can get through this difficult time, Zhu Sulan would never dare to speak nonsense again, especially about anything related to Director Li.

"Mr. Li, are you still at the shrimp farm? I'll drive over there and show you. There's one more thing. Our company has changed. We may have to re-sign the priority cooperation agreement you signed with Mr. Chen two years ago."

"That's it."

Li Duoyu was stunned. In fact, there was not much difference between signing with the original company and signing with the current company.

"Sure, I'm here. Come over here. I'll be waiting for you at the shrimp farm."

"Okay, I'll leave right away and will be at your place in about an hour and a half."

After Zhu Sulan finished speaking, she immediately picked up her handbag, called the company's driver, and asked him to take her to the shrimp farm.

Li Duoyu was indeed very curious.

Why is this female assistant so anxious to sell him the car? (End of this chapter)
