1983 Small Island, Starting From a Large Farmer Chapter 617

Time passed quickly, and more than two months passed in the blink of an eye, and the sea was filled with the sound of piling horns.

"Yoho hey!"

As of now, the total kelp farming area on Dandan Island totals more than 9,000 acres.

This scale is already quite large. Even in the previous life, the peak breeding scale of Dandan Island was only about 20,000 acres.

It has almost reached half of it now. The number seems to be a lot, but compared with the sea area around Dandan Island, nine thousand acres is not that big.

In addition, Li Duoyu has made a more scientific plan for the breeding area, and the kelp breeding areas are all concentrated in a sea area called [Xiao Leiyang].

The villagers on the island cannot raise them casually. They must report to the village first.

So even though nearly 9,000 acres of kelp have been planted, the sea surface of Dandan Island still looks quite open and not very messy.

If you stand on the highest mountaintop on the island and look down, you can see kelp farming areas crisscrossing the area, and you can see obvious waterways when the boat drives past.

In early December, it's time to plant kelp seedlings, and this year's cold air came relatively late.

Li Duoyu estimated that it might take around New Year's Day to start clipping kelp, and everything happened to be concentrated around that time.

By then, not only will he start fishing for eel fry, but the tilapia raised in the eel factory in Nanri Town will also be harvested.

In addition, the bamboo products from Dazhu Village will be exported soon. In fact, blue crabs are already ready for shipment.

But Li Duoyu plans to wait a little longer and launch the product intensively in the month before the Chinese New Year.

Now Li Duoyu just wants to get the kelp field ready first. The sea surface in December is already very cold with the wind blowing.

But the people working at sea were all in full swing. A total of eight boats and nearly fifty workers were driving pilings on the sea.

Lines of kelp ropes tied with plastic foam float on the sea, and the entire sea looks like a large sea field.

If there is someone who can write prose and poetry, maybe he will be able to produce many excellent works.

This is true. Ever since Dandan Island became famous, some literati have really wanted to visit their Dandan Island to learn about it.

But there was one condition, that is, they hoped that their village would provide food and housing, but Li Duoyu refused on the spot.

It is absolutely impossible for me to have such a good island and such a good maritime pastoral theme and provide you with food and accommodation.

Because Li Duoyu refused so harshly, there was even a hazy poem in the poetry magazine "Poetry" that was specifically used to satirize Li Duoyu.

Call him a tough guy.

Say he is a capitalist.

After learning about this, Li Duoyu smiled so happily, but Zhou Xiaoying thought there was something wrong with him!

Today is the last day of pile driving. Lao Li specially prepared a large wooden pile tied with red cloth.

This time the scale is relatively large. Most of the kelp piles are made of moso bamboo piles, but Li Duoyu still uses large wooden piles at the head and tail positions.

After all, wooden piles are relatively resistant to wind and waves. Even if there is sudden bad weather, if the piles are really pulled out, they will not be pulled out in one piece.

As Li Duoyu slowly lowered the wooden piles into the sea, Master Zhang, the piling driver, started the net hoisting machine.

Nowadays, piling masters use modified net hoisting machines to drive piles, which is very efficient.

In the past, manpower was used to drive piles. It took nearly ten people to pull the rope together to pull up the hammer head.

Nowadays, the net lifting machine is used directly, and the overall efficiency is more than five times that of before, and it is also very labor-saving.

With a clanging sound, the large wooden stake tied with red cloth was driven into the seabed.

When everyone saw the hammer head with sediment pulled out of the sea, Lao Li held up a long bamboo pole.

There was a string of firecrackers hanging on it, and then he took the cigarette **** he was smoking in his mouth and lit the fuse of the firecrackers.

Master Zhang, who was driving the piling, said: "Director Li, congratulations, you will make a fortune this year!"

Li Duoyu, who was shirtless and several shades darker, grinned and said to everyone: "I really want to thank you all this time. Don't leave later. Come to our Dandan Island and I'll treat you to a meal."

A piling worker said:

"Director Li, do you have anything to drink?"

"There must be. I'll take care of it. I'll get you drunk 100% of the time."

"Then we won't be polite."

Li Duoyu was just a low-level handyman in his previous life, so he got along very well with these people.

He does not put himself on a high pedestal just because he is now a big boss and a millionaire.

On the contrary, he especially liked to be with the fishermen. During the two months of piling, Li Duoyu also ate a big pot of rice and a big pot of soup, and did not open a small stove for himself.

For Li Duoyu, people do not become noble and unattainable just because they have money. Of course it is good to have money, but after you have money, you start to look down on others and classify yourself as another class. Oh no.

Li Duoyu, who has been a man for two generations, knows very well that the souls of rich people are not much noble, but very dirty.

These low-level workers just look dirty and have not received a good education. Some of them show their dirtiness.

But most people are not bad, and their thoughts are relatively simple. When you really get along with them, you find that they are really quite honest.

Sometimes, after drinking with them a few times, they really treat you as a brother. Unlike in business, the more you drink, the more you may be deceived.

Of course, this group is too huge, and there must be some bad apples, such as those who specialize in repairing leaks in houses and those who specialize in begging.

Li Duoyu finished the last puff of his cigarette. Instead of flicking the cigarette **** directly into the sea, he put it on the boat and stamped it out.

He looked at the kelp field in front of him. Now he has about 3,500 acres of kelp field.

This is already a very large scale, one person can even support more than a village.

His uncle's family has about 1,200 acres in total, his third uncle's family has 500 acres, and the Li family owns nearly 5,000 acres.

This year, the Zhao brothers gritted their teeth and directly acquired 200 acres, Wang Jinshan directly acquired 300 acres, and Lao Lu's family also acquired 500 acres.

Almost all the villagers on Dandan Island have spent all their savings, and some even borrowed money from banks, planning to give it a try.

Chenjia Village, seeing how confident Xiasha Village was this year, directly raised the scale of kelp farming to 2,000 acres.

The total kelp farming on Dandan Island has exceeded the scale of other villages in Shangfeng Town, and even reached half of the entire county.

At this moment, there was someone who was almost exhausted, and this person was Zhao Jialu.

Due to the explosion of kelp farming this year, the kelp farming area has tripled that of last year.

Zhao Jialu directly separated the kelp seedlings from the seedling center and set up a kelp seedling factory.

Nowadays, he eats and sleeps almost every day with kelp seedlings. Although Chen Dongqing occasionally helps him, he is still exhausted every day.

Coupled with the fact that he often blows wind at sea, Zhao Jialu's lips are all cracked. He was still a pretty boy at the beginning, and he had to pay attention to his image.

Now pay attention to this woolen man, with a cigarette hanging from his mouth and a hat on his head. His leather shoes will break after being soaked in the sea for two days.

He is currently wearing Jiefang shoes, which are the best for working. They are not afraid even if they get wet, and the soles are particularly non-slip.

The Jiefang shoes on his feet were specially donated by the army, and the quality was obviously better. He got them through his grandfather's relationship. Now all the employees of the Fisheries Research Institute are wearing the shoes he took out.

Even the pair on Li Duoyu's feet belonged to him, and today this **** came to their kelp seedling factory.

Seeing Zhao Jialu who looked more and more like a fisherman, Li Duoyu smiled and said:

"Director Zhao, long time no see. Why do you feel so thin again? I brought you three kilograms of pork belly."

Zhao Jialu looked at Li Duoyu with disgust. He didn't know why, but every time he saw him now, he couldn't help but want to kick him into the sea.

The nursery center can indeed achieve a lot, and now the family's evaluation of him has also changed.

I used to think that he was too weak to hold up the wall, but at the last Mid-Autumn Festival reunion, I even gave him a painting.

【Late bloomer】

But it's just that I'm really tired. I have to keep an eye on it all the time to make sure nothing goes wrong, otherwise the consequences will be really serious.

After all, if the kelp seedlings are not raised well, so many kelp piles will be driven down, and the loss will be huge.

Therefore, during this period, he was so stressed that he could not sleep, and often could not sleep in the middle of the night.

Another reason why he couldn't sleep was that not a single beautiful woman could be seen in the nursery center, and she stayed here for a long time.

Zhao Jialu even felt that Sister Li, the "Big Thunder" in the factory, looked quite pretty.

As for her beauty, in the past, Zhao Jialu would not even look at her.

Looking at the raw pork belly that Li Duoyu brought over, Zhao Jialu said in disgust: "You can't marinate it before giving it to me."

"I've always been in the cafeteria, how can I cook!"

"It's better to let the cafeteria cook it for you alone."

Zhao Jialu sighed, as if there was nothing wrong with what he said, seeing his smiling face.

"Tell me what you want from me."

Li Duoyu smiled and said: "Director Zhao, since we have made it clear, I will make it clear. The scale of kelp farming on Dandan Island is so large this year. Can the price of kelp seedlings be cheaper?"

"It's impossible. It's already the lowest price. If it goes any lower, our nursery center will lose money."

In the past, when Zhao Jialu was not responsible for a specific project, he would definitely help Li Duoyu without hesitation.

But things are different now. He is in charge of the entire nursery center, so he must achieve results.

After all, the more money he makes, the more dividends these workers will receive. It is impossible for him to engage in loss-making business.

Li Duoyu said: "Twenty yuan for one acre of kelp seedlings is really too expensive. We kelp farmers also need kelp ropes and kelp piles. We also need daily management and are afraid of typhoons. It's not easy. ah.

For example, if I have 3,500 acres, the price of kelp seedlings alone would be more than 70,000 yuan. Add in the money for pile driving and brown rope, and the total initial investment would be more than 200,000 yuan. "

Zhao Jialu gave him a disgusted look: "Why didn't you tell me that when the kelp is harvested, you can earn more than one million?"

Li Duoyu laughed and said, "Who knows what will happen next year."

"This price is really the lowest. If it were any lower, my kelp seedling factory would really not be able to continue operating."

Li Duoyu sighed: "Otherwise, I won't embarrass you. The price is only fifteen yuan."

"Eighteen minimum."

Li Duoyu made the decision on the spot:

"Okay, eighteen is eighteen."

Zhao Jialu was stunned for a moment and couldn't help scolding: "It's up to you, can you be a human being?"

Li Duoyu brought him three kilograms of pork belly and defrauded him of a lot of money. Dandan Island had a total of nine thousand acres. If he lost two yuan per mu, he would lose nearly eighteen thousand.

No wonder his cousin Chen Yuuyu once said that Director Li was a very smart person and it was not easy to make money from him.

Zhao Jialu gritted his teeth and said, "No, three kilograms of pork belly is definitely not enough. You have to cover the pork and seafood in our canteen this month, otherwise the people below will have objections."

"That's no problem. We don't have pork on Dandan Island, and the seafood is 100% sufficient."

Zhao Jialu hummed: "It's pork and seafood, not just seafood."

Li Duoyu smiled and said: "Jialu, you haven't rested for a long time, why don't we go to the county to relax."

"Go on your own."

Zhao Jialu had already been tricked once. What he meant by relaxing was to accompany him to the leader for a drink and a chat.

While Li Duoyu was checking the kelp seedlings, Zhao Jialu really couldn't control himself, and his smile became more and more crooked.

He kicked Li Duoyu on the **** and kicked him directly into the sea.

When Li Duoyu emerged from the sea, there were several pieces of kelp seedlings hanging on his head, and one spit out of his mouth.

"You did it on purpose."

Zhao Jialu smiled and said, "No, I did it accidentally."

"Your uncle, come and hold me down."

The unsuspecting Zhao Jialu just stretched out his hand and was directly pulled into the sea by Li Duoyu.

Not long after.

The two people shivering from the cold giggled on the boat. Zhao Jialu suddenly said: "In two years, I will be transferred back, and you will no longer be able to get such cheap kelp seedlings."

Li Duoyu replied: "After you leave, I will take over the entire nursery center. I will have the final say on the price in the future."

Zhao Jialu was stunned for a while: "You are still the best."

He took out the pack of cigarettes that was mostly soaked by sea water from his pocket, and finally found a dry one, but found that the lighter would not light.

"Brother Yu, you are the first real friend I have ever known. In the future, no matter where I am, we will be brothers."

Li Duoyu took a chicken from his pocket, popped a lighter and gave it to him: "From now on, no matter how big a mistake you make, I will find a way to get you."

*Zhao Jialu, who took the lighter, was stunned for several seconds after hearing this. Although he was a bit uneducated, in their circle, he had seen too many trees fall and hozens scatter.

"I'm so **** touched, give me a hug."

"You're a pervert!"

"Just give me this chicken explosion lighter."

"I bought it from Hong Kong Island. It's very expensive. I'll charge you two hundred yuan."

"Are they brothers?" (End of chapter)
