1983 Small Island, Starting From a Large Farmer Chapter 171

It will be more than a month later.

The beginning of winter is coming soon.

Li Duoyu has only a few days left to feel good.

At that time, not only will the three-year-old oysters have to be collected and sold, but all the brown ropes will have to be replaced, and then the kelp will start to be raised.

There are also eel seedlings, which arrive around December.

Li Duoyu must set up an eel breeding factory during the period when the eel fry arrive.

Moreover, eel fry are very picky eaters and are not willing to eat feed at first, so we have to find something called red worms for them.

It's the little red bug that twists and turns in the stinking ditch, which is the larvae of the chironomid.

Li Duoyu remembered that in his previous life, the price of this kind of red worm was very high for a period of time, and a pound could be sold for thirty or forty yuan.

Some people who use technological means to catch red worms can earn thousands of dollars in one night. The huge profits have spawned some people who specialize in catching red worms.

Due to the special geographical environment of Dandan Island, the number of red worms is very small. If you want to catch red worms, you have to hire someone to catch them.

The next month or so will probably be the busiest period since Li Duoyu came to this world.

On the fishing boat, after switching to flowing water fishing.

Li Shuguang finally experienced the fun of fishing, plus the reason why he encountered a school of red anchovy.

Li Shuguang and Chen Wenchao hit the fish almost as soon as they cast the hook.

This time they really enjoyed fishing and were addicted to the fun of fishing. This made Li Qingguang, who was helping to catch fish, feel that he could do it again.

Looking at the red anchovies piled on half the deck.

Li Duoyu made a rough calculation. In the past two hours, the two men caught nearly 300 kilograms of red anchovy. It felt like they were almost eating up all the fish in one pot.

Li Duoyu, on the other hand, specialized in fishing for grouper on the bottom. Including the big grouper caught earlier, he caught a total of seven groupers.

During the period, I also caught a large red spot weighing more than ten pounds. Unfortunately, in this era, red spot is not particularly valuable.

It's just a little more expensive than large yellow croaker. The purchase price from fishmongers is about 50 or 60 cents.

At about 2:30 in the afternoon, a tin boat appeared in their sight and drove towards them quickly.

After seeing the iron boat.

Li Shuguang immediately put away the fishing rod, came to the cab of the fishing boat, and took out a "good guy" wrapped in linen from under the cabinet.

And shouted to Li Qingguang:

“Qingguang, don't stay outside, come inside me.”

“What's wrong, brother?”

“Stop talking nonsense, come in quickly.”

Li Duoyu frowned and looked at the iron boat that was getting closer and closer.

In his previous life, when he was smuggling goods, what he was most afraid of at sea was not anti-smuggling ships or fishery administration ships, but meeting "one of his own people".

Just after the opening, there are many road tyrants on land who block the road and rob, and there are also many pirates on the sea who want to get something for nothing.

However, it is not that easy to rob at sea.

Pirates will often pretend to be weak and lie to you that the fishing boat is broken. They will also try their best to lure you, saying that there is a lot of good goods on the boat and you will be rewarded for helping them repair the boat.

In short, they are trying to make you lower your guard. Once they get on your fishing boat, they will immediately show their fangs.

Moreover, robberies at sea are often very ruthless, and most of them sink or blow up the ship.

This has also led to everyone being very taboo about going out to sea and getting too close to unknown fishing boats. When fishing boats are resting at sea at night, someone must take turns to prevent pirates from boarding the boat in the dark.

What everyone didn't expect was that the iron boat was very enthusiastic and walked alongside them until they were only ten meters away.

An old man in his sixties or seventies appeared on the bow of the boat. He was wearing a pair of flowery trousers and a pair of slippers.

Behind him was a boy in his teens, who seemed to be a grandson and a grandson.

After seeing them, the old man greeted them warmly: "Young man, are you from the mainland?"

“Don't be alarmed, we are not bad guys.”

No matter how the old man shouted, Li Shuguang ignored him and even started the fishing boat to get away from the iron boat.

I saw this fishing boat and wanted to leave.

The old man became anxious: "Don't leave yet. I'm really not a bad person. I have something to ask of you."

In fact, Li Duoyu had already ruled out the danger the moment he heard his Wanwan accent.

After all, the Overseas Province at this time was one of the four little dragons, and its economy was very good. The fishermen there should be more afraid of them, and would not take the initiative to approach them.

But today I happened to encounter a strange thing. Li Duoyu looked at this iron boat and felt that it must cost at least 70,000 to 80,000 yuan. Are you really not afraid that we will rob his fishing boat in turn?

Li Duoyu said:

"If you have anything to do, tell us directly. The ship doesn't need to be so close."

The old man quickly said: "It's like this. I used to be from mainland China. I was deceived into an overseas province. Can you help me send a letter to my family?"

Li Duoyu was stunned. Why didn't he think that the old man had such an important identity just now? Fortunately, he didn't have any wrong thoughts just now, otherwise he might have been beaten into a hornet's nest, but he had actually fought in a war.

Li Duoyu thought for a while: "Is there no problem with your letter?"

"It's definitely no problem. It's just an ordinary letter from home. I haven't sealed it with glue yet. You can take it out and read it, or I can write a new one in front of you."

After the old man finished speaking, he tied the envelope with an empty conch shell and threw it at Li Duoyu's feet.

Li Duoyu opened the letter and took a few glances at it. Although the handwriting of the old man was not pretty, the content inside caused Li Duoyu to feel "extremely uncomfortable."

To Xiumei:

It's so **** sensational. This old man must be a romance novel writer.

He also stayed in the island country for many years in his previous life, and he was very clear about the pain of homesickness and missing family members.

After seeing Li Duoyu read it, the old man said: "Is there no problem? I really wrote it for my wife.

　　When the word wife was mentioned, the old man fell silent because he had no way of guaranteeing whether his wife and children were still alive or whether he had remarried.

So I didn't dare to write the word wife in my letters, but wrote her name directly.

Li Duoyu nodded and said: "No problem, it's a normal letter. I can send it for you." Hearing that the young man was willing to send the letter for him, the old man was so excited that he trembled: "Thank you very much."

The young man behind him also looked happy: "Grandpa, finally someone is willing to send it for you."

The old man touched his head:

“I've told you, there are still a lot of good people in this world. Don't tell your grandma when you go back. Do you know?”

"knew."

As soon as the old man finished speaking, he was instantly slapped in the face, because the young man in front of him said with an embarrassed look on his face.

"It's quite risky for me to send a letter for you. If the organization finds out, I might have to stay in jail."

The old man understood instantly and took off his watch: "Is this imported watch from an island country enough?"

Li Duoyu shook his head and pointed to a machine on the other side's fishing boat: "I want this water pump."

The corner of the old man's mouth twitched, and he struggled for a while: "I can give you this water pump, but you must send me a letter to know if it's there."

“That's for sure, I am also the head of a village.”

The old man cursed in a low voice: "If you repay the village chief like this, I will repay the township chief."

After Li Duoyu took over the water pump, he said, "Uncle, do you have Vasami on the boat?"

The old man was surprised: "How do you know this thing?"

“I just went to an island country on a business trip not long ago and I ate that thing.”

The old man suddenly realized:

“No wonder you have such a good fishing rod.”

Not long after, the old man took two tubes of something green, like toothpaste, and a bottle of black stuff.

“I only have so much on board. I made this soy sauce myself. You can try it. It tastes very good.”

“Thank you, thank you.”

The old man had tears in his eyes: "You're so polite. I'm the one who should be thanked. You must send me a letter."

“I know, you don't have to keep stressing, do I look like that kind of person? By the way, is there any ice on your boat?”

Veins popped up on the old man's forehead. If he didn't need his help to deliver the letter, he really wanted to beat this young man.

“Yes, I'll get you a bag.”

Since it was already four o'clock in the afternoon, there was no further communication between the two parties. Otherwise, if the fishery administration really discovered it, the outcome would not be much better.

Both parties simply waved goodbye, and the old man left his contact address.

On the way back, Li Qingguang surrounded the machine that Li Duoyu had begged for and asked, "Brother Duoyu, what is the use of this machine that person gave you?"

Li Duoyu grinned and said, "This is a good thing."

Following.

Li Duoyu gently pulled the damper and pulled the machine. Li Qingguang was startled as the rumbling sound sounded.

“Is this a diesel engine?”

“This is a gasoline engine.”

"How much does it cost? How could he be willing to give it to you?"

“Because I am a good person.”

Chen Wenchao said seriously: "I also think Brother Yu is a good person."

Li Shuguang on the side was very speechless.

After Li Duoyu started the water pump, he directly threw one of the water pipes into the sea, and then picked up the other end of the water pipe.

The seawater was pumped up and sprayed on the deck. Under the huge water pressure, the fishing boat became clean instantly.

Li Duoyu didn't want to receive payment from the old man, but he accidentally saw this water pump on his boat.

I really want it so much.

Coupled with the fact that the economy of overseas provinces is so good now, a water pump is just a sprinkler of water for them.

But it's different here in the mainland. If this thing were made in China, it would cost you one or two thousand.

Li Qingguang looked at the water pump with envy. He should have been braver if he had known it. Maybe this machine would be his now.

“Brother Duoyu, wash your feet for me.”

Li Shuguang also envied his cousin, but wealth was always at stake, so he didn't have the guts to contact the old man just now.

After learning the old man's true identity, Li Qingguang said with a puzzled look: "He misses home so much, his wife and children, why doesn't he just run back?"

Li Shuguang couldn't help but pat his head: "The adult's affairs are not as simple as you think. Didn't you see that there is a child next to him who is similar to you?"

“You can tell at a glance that a family has been re-established there.”

"ah."

Li Qingguang was shocked: "What about his wife and children?"

“Ask me, who should I ask?”

Li Duoyu glanced at the sea not far away. There was obviously nothing there, but there was an invisible wall.

So that in future generations, whether it is fishing boats or airplanes, they have to go around "it".

In the cab, Li Qingguang was curiously studying the two tubes of green toothpaste, squeezing a little to try what the toothpaste tasted like.

As a result, I cried instantly.

“Brother Duoyu, what the **** is this? My eyes and nose feel so uncomfortable.” (End of this chapter)
