In 1983, a small island started from a large farmer

After both parties confirmed their intention to cooperate, Li Duoyu drove his fishing boat to Guanjingyang.

Although it is the next county, their province is a hilly area, so if you want to get to the next county, you have to climb over a mountain.

Driving a car is not as fast as driving a boat. After seeing Li Duoyu’s Crown, everyone saw his fishing boat.

Their faces were full of envy, especially the speed of this boat, which was more than two or three times faster than their fishing boats.

In less than four hours' boat ride, we arrived at Guanjingyang where Section Chief Liu and his team were.

After Li Duoyu parked the boat at a pier called Xiahu, under the leadership of Section Chief Liu, they walked about half a kilometer and arrived at the so-called yellow croaker breeding experimental base.

But if Section Chief Liu hadn’t pointed out the breeding experimental base in front of them, no one would have known that this was the place where yellow croaker research was done.

Their office is a dilapidated wooden boat, the nursery pool is an earth pit and a large water tank, and the water pipes are made of bamboo.

There is a small fishing raft on the sea with several fish cages on it. It is not even as big as the one that Li Duoyu usually uses to temporarily raise marine fish.

But what concerned Li Duoyu and his companions more was that the wooden boat that they used as an office seemed to have been splashed with something. They could smell a smell like that of a public toilet before they even got close to it, and there was even red paint on the hull.

After seeing this, Section Chief Liu was very embarrassed and quickly said, "Jiaxiang, please accompany Director Li and the others first. I'll ask them to sort it out."

Liu Jiafu trotted onto the wooden boat and started yelling at the employees who were resting inside the boat.

"What's wrong with you? When I left, I told you to clean it up. Why haven't you done it yet? You don't even know how to clean your own doghouse. There's not even a place to sit. When guests come, where do you let them sit?"

"Boss, are there really guests coming?"

Liu Jiafu nodded and pointed at Li Duoyu and his group not far away: "Li Duoyu from Dandan Island has agreed to cooperate with us."

"Fuck, is this true?"

"We really have attracted investment this time. Let's make room for tea. Don't scare people away."

Those employees were also surprised. They thought that the boss’s attempt to solicit sponsorship this time would definitely end in failure.

So no one is too lazy to deal with it. Even if you clean it up, those bastard fishermen will still sneak over during high tide and throw shit and piss on you.

They never expected that this time the boss actually got investment from the big breeder Li Duoyu. This was a bit beyond their expectations.

A group of people acted quickly and tidied up the room as quickly as possible. Someone fetched water to wash away the dirt that was spilled on the wooden boat.

The other man very skillfully picked up a bucket of paint and painted over the red paint on the wooden boat.

After seeing this situation, Li Duoyu couldn't help but ask curiously: "Comrade Jiaxiang, are you in conflict with the local authorities?"

Chen Jiaxiang nodded and said, "Guanjingyang is now a protection area for large yellow croakers. Fishing is not allowed in this area from May to November.

Section Chief Liu is the initiator of this yellow croaker protection zone. As the price of yellow croaker is so high now, many local fishermen are secretly catching it.

Section Chief Liu reported them several times. The sticky nets of two fishing boats were detained by the fishery administration, and the local fishermen held a grudge against them.

Throwing shit and urine on us was the least of their worries. Once, they even secretly ripped open our fish cages, and a thousand yellow croaker fry escaped. Our Section Chief Liu was so angry that he picked up a shovel and wanted to fight them to the death.

Li Duoyu frowned slightly and then asked, "After Guanjingyang became a protected area, did the local government not introduce any subsidies or resettlement measures?"

Before Chen Jiaxiang could answer, He Gang at the side smiled helplessly: "Yes, the pressure is all on our institute. A document was sent over from above, telling us to learn from Comrade Li Duoyu of Dandan Island and complete the industrial transfer of Guanjingyang [replacing fishing with breeding]."

Li Duoyu was stunned for a few seconds. They were so far away from each other, but he didn't expect that he would be the one to be shot.

"Alas, what is there for me to learn? I haven't even graduated from junior high school."

He Gang smiled and said, "Would you like to come to our institute for a tour? I believe everyone will definitely give you a warm welcome."

"Forget it then."

After about ten minutes, Section Chief Liu came running over, sweating profusely, and said, "I'm sorry to have made a fool of myself."

“The conditions are simple and there is nothing to entertain, so please make do with it for now.

Li Duoyu and his group followed Chief Liu onto the wooden boat and found that the boat's engines were all broken.

The facilities inside are very simple, with only some basic research equipment. It feels even worse than a middle school chemistry laboratory.

What surprised Li Duoyu was that although the wooden boat was small, it had everything needed, even a propaganda wall.

There was a photo album there that caught Li Duoyu's attention. After opening it, the first page was a black-and-white photo, which was full of wooden fishing boats, most of which were motorboats.

It was obviously taken in the 1970s. Above the photo was written [Guanjingyang Thousand Boats Fishing Conference]. What surprised Li Duoyu the most was that he actually saw his uncle and Old Li when they were young in this photo album.

The two of them stood on a trawl propped up by giant yellow croakers, each holding two extra-large giant yellow croakers in their hands.

Seeing them standing directly on the trawl, Li Duoyu was somewhat shocked, because yellow croaker is considered a middle and lower layer marine fish, and its swim bladder will 100% become bloated after being caught.

How many big yellow croakers are needed to make the entire trawl float up, and even allow people to stand on it?

Li Duoyu had always heard them say that one net would take several boats to load. Judging from the photos, this was absolutely true. Even if he sold this net now, he would make a fortune.

The title on this page is [Fishing for 100 days to become the number one fish hold].

The album recorded the story of the yellow croaker in great detail, which made Li Duoyu ask, "Chief Liu, have you been paying attention to the yellow croaker for a long time?"

Liu Jiafu sighed and said, "I used to be the person in charge of the command center of our fishery. I was the one who directed the fishing at the beginning, and I was also the one who taught everyone the technique of catching fish by extortion."

Li Duoyu was stunned for a moment. It turned out that the victim was here.

After hearing this, Chen Dongqing hurriedly asked: "Chief Liu, have you ever worked in our Fisheries Research Institute before? Were you a colleague of Zhang Qingyun?"

Liu Jiafu nodded and said, "Well, more than ten years ago, I did work in your institute, and later I was transferred here to be in charge of the fishery work."

Section Chief Liu talked about it and said that he had never expected that those large-scale fishing operations would directly hit the yellow croaker's main artery and destroy the flood season.

Liu Jiafu sighed and said, "If I had known that it would bring such a serious disaster to the yellow croaker, I would not have been the person in charge of the fishing."

Liu Jiafu went on to say: "In fact, I have some selfish motives in studying the breeding of yellow croaker. I want to get more fry, and then release them into the wild, so as to restore the ecological population of yellow croaker."

Li Duoyu nodded and said, "That's a good idea. When we get started in the future, we can breed more seedlings and release them into the water."

Liu Jiafu was very puzzled. Why was this young man so easy to talk to? Why did everyone seem to support everything he wanted to do?

Seeing Liu Jiafu's puzzled expression, Li Duoyu would not tell them that the reason why yellow croaker has been able to maintain its myth is because there have always been wild yellow croakers.

In the past, catching wild yellow croaker was like winning the lottery for fishermen.

If you can catch two kilograms of wild yellow croaker, you can easily sell it for more than four or five thousand.

People are like this. The taste difference between farmed yellow croaker and wild yellow croaker is obvious.

But people prefer wild ones, especially when entertaining guests or asking for favors, farmed yellow croakers are not suitable at all, and wild ones are required. But the most important thing is that when the time comes, the organization will naturally buy fish fry from you for reproduction and release, so you don’t have to worry about losing money.

After visiting the wooden boat, Li Duoyu went to their fish cages to check and found that these yellow croakers were really skinny and each one seemed to be malnourished.

Due to some experiences in his previous life, Li Duoyu is quite familiar with yellow croaker. This species is not easy to raise in such a small cage. It is best to raise it in a large cage. However, the requirements and cost of large cages are relatively high.

Li Duoyu thought about it and felt that it would be more suitable to raise yellow croaker in ponds at this stage.

Raising yellow croaker in ponds has lower risks, is easier to control, and is not as afraid of typhoon weather.

There are many methods for breeding yellow croaker. The one with the highest yield is cage breeding. It is not a problem to raise one or two thousand fish in one cage. However, it has a great impact on the nearby sea areas and can easily damage the water quality.

There is also a method called net farming, which involves building a net of nearly one hundred acres.

Those farmers call this kind of yellow croaker semi-wild yellow croaker, and the yellow croaker raised by this method is much more expensive, almost five times that of those raised in ponds and cages.

And this is not the most expensive one. The most expensive one is the large deep-sea cage aquaculture. The structure of the cage is very strong and can withstand ordinary typhoons as long as it is not a super typhoon like "Molaodi".

This type of deep-sea cage generally only produces yellow croaker weighing more than two kilograms. The yellow croaker farmed in this type of deep-sea cage is usually called deep-sea yellow croaker, and the word "farming" is deliberately removed.

However, the most exaggerated one is the Guoxin No. 1, a super large ship that breeds yellow croaker.

Although Li Duoyu has never visited the ship, he can occasionally see this ship in the open sea.

It is said that the cost of building this ship is 500 million yuan, and it has 15 fish holds specially used for breeding yellow croaker.

Because the most suitable temperature for yellow croaker to bite is about 15 to 25 degrees, and this Guoxin No. runs to their south in winter, and when it is too hot, it runs to the north to escape the heat.

The water temperature in the breeding process is always controlled at the temperature that is most suitable for the yellow croaker to open its mouth, so the breeding speed will be a little faster.

Li Duoyu thought that this ship was good in every way except that the investment was too huge. Add to that the professional breeding staff and a series of expenses, and Li Duoyu felt overwhelmed just thinking about it. He guessed that only a state-owned enterprise would dare to spend so much money.

Although Li Duoyu has never raised yellow croaker and is not an expert in this field, just like with shrimp farming, his only responsibility is to point out the direction. With just a little guidance, the expert team can avoid many detours.

The two sides had a pretty pleasant discussion, and Li Duoyu eventually drafted a simplified version of the cooperation agreement.

When Liu Jiafu saw the conspicuous words "transfer of patent rights" on the contract, he felt so distressed that he even hesitated before signing.

But at that moment, he really couldn't resist the temptation. If he looked for another one, he would never be able to find a boss like Li Duoyu who was willing to invest money in his yellow croaker breeding project.

In the end, Liu Jiafu chose to sign.

Pressed the fingerprints.

The first thing Li Duoyu did after investing in Liu Jiafu's yellow croaker breeding project was to ask Liu Jiafu to catch more yellow croaker broodstock.

After signing the contract, Li Duoyu gave the other party 20,000 yuan in the first phase to allow them to improve their office environment and also let them choose a factory building suitable for research.

Li Duoyu plans to set up a yellow croaker breeding base here next year and strive to start yellow croaker breeding as soon as possible.

As long as the two breeding industries of shrimp and yellow croaker are established, Li Duoyu feels as if he will have a lot of money just by thinking about it.

These two are big industries. As long as you hold on to them tightly, you can make money without doing anything.

A blink of an eye.

It was the day before the winter solstice, and it was time to rub rice. Like in previous years, Chen Huiying was still frying crushed peanuts and soybean powder.

Li Haoran, who had returned home for the holiday, was already helping in the kitchen, occasionally stealing a handful of crushed peanuts and putting them into his mouth.

As for little Tutu, he was holding a bamboo sword given to him by his grandfather and destroying the flowers and plants in the yard.

When he shouted "Watch out for the sword" at one of the chrysanthemums, Zhou Xiaoying came out with a dark face and a small bamboo whip.

Seeing A Niang coming aggressively, Xiao Tutu immediately threw the bamboo sword far away. Teacher Zhou saw that Juhua was beaten by him and said angrily: "Li Puyi, come here!"

After being discovered by his mother, Tutu immediately admitted his mistake and said, "Mother, I won't dare to do it again."

Zhou Xiaoying was so angry that she couldn't speak. This boy was getting more and more naughty. This flower was given to her by someone else a few days ago.

As a result, she was ruined by this kid just a few days after she got home. Zhou Xiaoying felt that with this little bastard around, there was no way a beautiful flower would bloom in her yard.

After taking a glance at the chickens and ducks that were severely "hair-losing", Zhou Xiaoying pulled down his pants on the spot and whipped his white little butt a few times. Little Tutu started crying in pain.

Li Duoyu happened to come back with some pastries, and when little Tutu saw him, he felt like he had seen a savior.

"Father..."

But when Li Duoyu saw the angry Zhou Xiaoying.

Coughed twice.

It’s not that your father doesn’t want to save you, it’s just that your father is also afraid of your mother.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Xiaoying threw the bamboo whip at him: "I always beat him, and he hates me so much. This time it's your turn."

Li Duoyu widened his eyes. What was going on?

Seeing Zhou Xiaoying so angry, Li Duoyu grinned and said, "I bought your favorite snow flakes cream, and some nougat..."

Zhou Xiaoying seemed very angry.

"I'm already full of anger, what else do I need to eat?"

"I'll leave the child in your care. I still have to prepare things for the winter solstice worship."

After saying that, he angrily returned to the kitchen and continued to prepare things for worship during the winter solstice.

At this time, Li Duoyu picked up the bamboo whip and signaled Xiao Tutu to lie down.

The father and son conspired.

"When I hit you later, scream louder. Do you hear me?"

Little Tutu understood immediately and grinned, "Got it, Dad, I will yell louder."

He cooperated obediently, but he didn't expect that the next second, a pig-slaughtering scream was heard, and even Chen Huiying in the old house heard it.

Little Tutu, whose butt was bruised by the beating, looked at his father with tears in his eyes.

"Dad, you're lying."

"Didn't you say to be gentler? But I feel like you hurt more than my mother did."

"If it doesn't hurt, then you don't have a good memory. Your grandma beat me like this." (End of this chapter)
