1983 Small Island, Starting From a Large Farmer Chapter 396

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 unions are faster. They have long been having headaches because everyone has poor enthusiasm for lending and cannot meet the loan quotas above.

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

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

At the village committee, a few simple tables and chairs and a banner of "Dandan Island Net Hoisting Machine Procurement Conference" serve as a simple service point.

A large number of fishermen gathered at the scene, and some people had already started 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 public demonized loans.

What I mean is that when a father borrows a loan and his son repays it, the interest is very high. 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 are instructions on the table, most of the people on the island are illiterate and cannot 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 back the money, we will only take away the network machine, and we won't go and poke the tiles in your house." It will not affect your children, so folks, please rest assured."

However, not all fishermen can purchase a net hoist 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 qualification review is quite strict.

Lao Lu, Shitou, Zhao Dahai, Wang Jinshan and other fishermen who own 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 among 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 stinky feet, you don't even have a boat, why did you buy a net 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 put it on it directly."

Zhang Jinsha said with a dark face: "Hurry up and leave. Everyone in the village can get a loan, but you can't. You will be 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, took a fishing boat from the next village to complain to the county, and only then was Director Liu taken away for investigation. This thing.

I heard that Stinky Feet even volunteered to be the director of Dandao's Planning Committee, replacing Liu Xiuzhu in charge of *** affairs.

Recently, Zhao Dahai, who was full of anger, looked at the stinky feet with a smile and hugged his neck.

“Stinky feet, I heard that your dog meat is delicious. Do you want to treat your brothers to a feast?”

“Dahai, don't mess around.”

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

Stone was also gearing up and cursed: "Although some people raise 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?"

“Copy that, 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 and didn't even have a diesel engine.

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

At the end of the whole day, more than 30 net hoisting 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, specifically installing and debugging net-raising machines for fishermen.

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

Lao Chen from a second-hand fishing gear shop 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 will be.

“Old Chen, do you still have any goods? I'll bring you thirty ground cages.”

“Yes, there is.”

Seeing that everyone was using the net hoist, the villagers on the island who did not have boats were all anxious.

Because they can clearly feel that the gap between Li Duoyu and Li Duoyu as the village director has become wider and wider in the past two years. 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 hoist to collect their nets, the villages along the coast were all unable to 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 100 orders.

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

The fishermen who wanted to buy a net machine in the future 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 desk of the big boss.

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

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 kid'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. Leader, Director Zhao asked if the wind turbine matter has been finalized."

The 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 go through the back door and act according to the rules."

"Understood."

And during this period of time.

A red tide broke out.

The days when the outbreak happened were 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: "We have been eating 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 we have to go through 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 invites good brothers, but do you know why we 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 destroyed."

After hearing this, a child puffed up 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, sea blood has appeared. This year's Ghost Festival must be particularly fierce. 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. Don't go out at night to find out. "

"knew."

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

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 visible on the other side of the pier. They were all sleeping under the covers.

With the emergence of red tide.

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

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

If we were to look back at the 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.

To tourists, blue tears are really beautiful, but to fishermen and farmers, they really hate them.

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. The white flowers are constantly rising and falling with the waves, and many of them have begun to rot.

Some old people frowned when they saw these dead fish and said, "All the dead fish are 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 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 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 a whole pier of dead fish, Li Duoyu went to the oyster field with a feeling of trepidation.

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

The winner is,

Not all the oysters are dead,

The loser is,

Half of the oysters were dead.

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

Lao Li, Er Ge, 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 load several boats.

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

Li Duoyu has been telling them that farming is risky, but they still don't believe it, but now they see so many dead oysters.

They finally understood that farming 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.

Honestly speaking, if the things that happened to Li Duoyu farming were done to other farmers, they would probably lose all their money.

This time, in addition to Li Duoyu, there is another victim on Dandan Island, Lao Sha, who is 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 that bad anymore.

“Let's go and invite you to drink.”

Lao 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 ancient oyster sauce, and sold them to the rip-off to reduce losses.

But in this life, Li Duoyu felt it was not necessary, 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 have 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 a 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 the village director's election 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 me 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 members 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 also has a strong sense of responsibility.

Even if he is no longer in this position, these people can still hold on.

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

"Damn it, you've 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, I'll resign now."

　　"If you don't resign, you're just talking nonsense. When will you be ready to leave?"

“About the time.”

Zhang Jinsha drank some wine and suddenly wanted to hit someone. (End of chapter)
