1983 Small Island, Starting From a Large Farmer Chapter 640

The Millennium Celebration of Mazu's Ascension is definitely a grand event for millions of Mazu believers.

After all, the millennium birthday is in a special period. Even if everyone wants to celebrate, they don't have the courage. It is already good that the ancestral temple can be preserved.

Li Duoyu is also relatively clear about the Millennium Celebration. Not only do they go to worship along the coast, overseas Chinese will also invite overseas Mazu spirits back, allowing them to return to their natal homes to receive the spiritual power of the golden body.

Li Duoyu remembers very clearly that in order to participate in this grand event, Mazu believers in overseas provinces had to travel to island countries and then come to the mainland from them.

And that time was also the first ice-breaking trip between people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait after the founding of the People's Republic of China.

It seems that there are probably the most Mazu temples in the overseas provinces in the world. It is said that there are more than 800 large-scale temples. If they are added anonymously, there may be thousands. Two-thirds of the residents on the island are Mazu temples. believer.

It is said that it was this ice-breaking trip that caused large-scale protests by anti-war veterans in overseas provinces, which led to the massive return home visit movement in 1987.

Shitou's grandfather, if he's lucky, he should be able to go back to Dandan Island to visit his relatives openly next year.

When talking about this millennium celebration, Li Duoyu also regretted that in his previous life, he was still working on a sewing machine in prison and could not make it to the feast.

Everything he knew was dictated by others. It was said that next year's celebration would be attended by more than 100,000 people if all were added up. It would be an unprecedented grand event.

The Mazu of Tianhou Temple on Dandan Island is one of the few golden avatars, and she also occupies a place in the entire Millennium Festival.

Chen Huotan continued: "Previously, I have discussed with Chenjiacun that there is only one Tianhou Palace on our island. In the future, we simply won't separate them, and we will do it together. Our two villages will each send two representatives to head the palace. Come out and ask Mazu.

If the big head family belongs to our Xiasha Village, then this year the finance and worship work of the Tianhou Temple will be based on our Xiasha Village.

If the big head family is from Chenjiacun, then they will be responsible. "

A group of older people started talking. They were also older. They had passed the age of fighting and killing, and now they were all very slick.

"Okay, anyway, as long as we don't fight and do it together, there's no problem."

"That's right, harmony brings wealth."

At this moment, Chen Huotan knocked on the floor twice with his crutch to signal everyone to quiet down.

"By the way, there is a situation now. Yuanshan and I can't make a decision. We want to discuss it with everyone."

After hearing this, everyone looked at the two of them. Although Li Duoyu was in charge of the big deal this year.

But it was the two people in front of them who really did the work. They were also curious about what it was that made them both unable to make a decision, and they had to be called over to discuss it.

Chen Huotan continued: "That's it. Originally, I called everyone here just to discuss the first candidate next year.

But now there is a special situation, that is, after Li Duoyu became the boss, our Dandan Island's luck is quite prosperous.

I have discussed this with several people, and I feel that Mazu is really blessing him. Now I would like to ask everyone for their opinions.

Should we continue the previous rule that each person can only be the leader once, or should we say that those who have made special contributions can continue to choose. "

As soon as Chen Huotan finished speaking, someone immediately asked: "Uncle Huotan, what do you mean? Next year Li Duoyu will still be the boss, don't you need to ask Mazu?"

Chen Huotan shook his head and said: "What we mean here is that next year Li Duoyu is only a candidate for the top spot, but whether he can become the top spot will be decided by throwing the Holy Grail. In the end, Mazu has the final say."

"That's it."

"Li Duoyu has indeed made a great contribution. We in Chenjiacun are very grateful to him."

"And everyone thinks that he has very good luck. If he is the leader, maybe the luck of the entire island will also be good."

Someone from Chenjiacun said: "But in this case, there will be one more candidate for the top job in Xiasha Village, and then we in Chenjiacun will have no chance."

Chen Huotan said: "Our village will not take advantage. If Duoyu participates, then we will also be two."

"If this is the case, we in Chenjiacun will have no objection."

But there are also different voices. Many people actually want to be the leader. After all, next year is too important.

And many people think that Li Duoyu's fortune will be so prosperous only after he was elected as the boss.

A middle-aged man named Zheng Shaolin said: "If Li Duoyu becomes the candidate for the top job again, will it break the rules set by our ancestors? If all capable people do this, then won't others? This opportunity.”

Chen Huotan nodded and said: "So, this time we come to you for discussion. When the time comes, everyone can vote to decide."

Someone else said: "Even if Duoyu is given the opportunity to continue to be the leader, I don't believe that he can continue to be the leader."

"If he can beat everyone in throwing the Holy Grail this time, then I'll admit it."

"Then it was really appointed by Mazu."

Seeing everyone's attitude, Zheng Shaolin sighed. It was more of a briefing session than a discussion with them.

Li Duoyu's performance in the past two years has been so dazzling that it has indeed boosted the entire island's economy. Many people have made money through him.

If he wants to be the leader again, the vast majority of the villagers will definitely support him.

"Okay, if we agree on this, let's call Director Li over first. In fact, we haven't informed him about this yet."

"Didn't Li Duoyu ask for it?"

The two old men shook their heads and said, "No, this kid Duoyu has never said anything about this."

After hearing this, many people had a better impression of Li Duoyu. The two of them didn't explain the matter clearly just now, which made them complain about this young man and thought he was too greedy. .

At the Qixing Bay Shrimp Factory, there were all convoys coming to transport shrimps and blue crabs, and there was even a traffic jam.

The scene in front of them reminded many people of the time when people from all over the world came to their Shangfeng Town to buy smuggled goods.

Several middle-aged people who were fishing for shrimps in the shrimp pond suddenly felt emotional when they saw the traffic jam in front of them: "Time flies so fast. I haven't seen so many cars in a long time."

The person who was catching shrimps with him took a puff of his cigarette butt, and instead of flicking it into the shrimp pond, he blew it out and put it in his pocket, because if he was caught and reported, he would be fined at least one yuan.

"Yeah, who would have thought that sea smuggling back then would be eliminated so quickly. I originally wanted to make this money."

"Fortunately, you don't have the ability to make this money, otherwise you would probably be in jail now."

"Hahaha~~"

The bosses on the truck all held the pre-purchase agreement they had signed in their hands, scrambling to pay the money to Minlong's financial office.

A fishmonger named Li Yajun said: "Director Li, speaking of which, we are also from the same family. I would like to add another 20,000 yuan of prawns. Can you think of it?"

Everyone knows that the shrimp farmed by Minlong Company has a price but no market, as long as someone has the goods.

It is 100% possible to make money. It can almost be said that no matter how much money you spend to buy shrimps from Li Duoyu today, you are very likely to make double the money.

But what he didn't expect was that Director Li in front of him had a very firm attitude:

"I'm really sorry. All the prawns in the shrimp pond have been reserved. If I give you more, there won't be enough for others."

Li Yajun said anxiously: "Director Li, can't you really give me more?" Li Duoyu shook his head: "I can't hold it back since I opened my mouth. We are all in business, so we should understand."

Li Yajun smiled awkwardly, but he brought a lot of money with him this time. After thinking about it, he said, "How about this? Let's buy another five thousand blue crabs. What do you think?"

"Blue crab, that's fine."

Although there are no prawns, it might be good to buy more blue crabs. After all, the products produced by Minlong must be high-quality, and their blue crabs are better than others.

Li Yajun smiled and said: "That's a total of one ton of shrimps and 5,000 yuan of blue crabs."

After finishing speaking, Li Yajun directly put the suitcase he carried on the table and took out thirty bundles of large bundles from it.

And he didn't shy away from suspicion, as if he was showing off his strength to Li Duoyu. Li Duoyu just glanced slightly and saw that there was really a lot of money in the suitcase.

I guess from the beginning, Li Yajun came here with the mentality that he could buy more.

There are many people like him today, and almost everyone wants to get more goods. Li Duoyu's mouth is almost dry, and he doesn't know how many cups of tea he drank.

In fact, just now, the idea of becoming a dealer membership popped up in his mind, as long as the other party paid a certain amount of membership fees.

You can become a dealer member of their Minlong company. If there are good products next time, you can give them priority.

But Li Duoyu thought about it and realized that this concept was too advanced for most people, if he did this.

Other companies may follow suit, and by then, the domestic channel model may enter the membership dealer model many years in advance.

There are two people responsible for counting money these two days.

One is Chen Xiaoyan, who can be regarded as the daughter-in-law of the Li family. Although she has not received the certificate yet, the two parties have already "decided".

Even though the two parties have already calculated their birthdays and their parents have agreed, but they are still too young and have made a lifelong decision so early, there will definitely be no shortage of quarrels in the future.

The other one is Liu Xiaolan. She is currently studying with her second brother Li Yaoguo and can count money very quickly.

But even though they were very fast at counting money, in the past two days, their hands were cramped even after counting.

The two of them had never seen so much money in their lives, and a lot of it was brand new, as if they had just been taken out of the bank.

After Chen Xiaoyan and Liu Xiaolan finished counting, they counted each other again before signing and saying: "Thirty thousand yuan."

After determining the amount, Li Duoyu took out two notes and wrote "Two thousand catties of prawns" on one of them.

Another note read: [Five thousand catties of blue crabs]

Then he signed and stamped his seal. Due to the standardized management, every process, including him, had to be checked and signed by someone.

After they got the note, their brother-in-law Zhang Mingsheng and Chen Wenchao would come to see the goods and help them load the goods.

Li Duoyu's room dedicated to keeping money was filled with tables, all bundles of money tied with rubber bands. Not many people could enter this room.

Li Duoyu, who was a little tired, simply lay down on the pile of money. At this moment, he really had the urge to throw money into the sky.

At the same time, he also understood one thing, why the money smelled bad, because he had no idea how many hands the money had changed in his hands.

It has long been "favored" by sweat, saliva, handwriting, etc. A lot of dirt will adhere to the surface of banknotes, and it does have an indescribable smell.

There is only one reason why money does not stink, and that is that you have too little money. With so much money piled together, it is difficult not to stink.

At this moment, the landline of the second brother of the shrimp farm rang. After Chen Xiaoyan answered the call, she trotted over and knocked on the door.

"Brother Yu, Uncle Huo Tan has something to ask you. He asked you to return to the island to discuss matters concerning the first family next year."

Li Duoyu was a little confused. Why should they discuss it with him if they just decided not to decide on the matter of the head family?

Anyway, he can only be the leader once, what does the new leader have to do with him.

"Okay, I get it."

After Li Duoyu returned to the island, he went to the village council. He thought these people knew that he made so much money today.

I guess they wanted to take advantage of him while he was still the leader and donate more money.

Unexpectedly, Uncle Huo Tan's words made Li Duoyu unable to believe his ears.

Li Duoyu pointed at himself and said, "Can I continue to be the top candidate next year?"

Chen Huotan nodded and said, "That's right."

Li Duoyu frowned and said, "No, isn't the rule of our village that one person can only be the head of the household once in his life?"

Chen Huotan said with a smile: "Don't worry about this kind of thing. Many rules are set by people. Everyone has voted this time. You can still be the leader candidate next year, but you still have to throw the Holy Grail together and ask Mazu."

After hearing this, Li Duoyu became serious. He glanced at the more than 20 middle-aged and elderly people in the room.

They had roughly guessed the reason why they wanted to continue to be the leader. After thinking for a while, Li Duoyu said seriously:

"I can't continue to be the leading candidate. It's not fair to others, and I don't want to be special.

When you elect the new boss, I will retire from my position as the boss. "

As soon as Li Duoyu said this, all the council members present looked at him in surprise. They also argued all morning about whether Li Duoyu could be re-elected as the first candidate.

It's all their own sentimentality, and they don't regard the leader as very important.

"Ahem."

Chen Huotan hurriedly said: "There are so many fish. Next year will be the thousandth year since Mazu ascended to heaven. It is a very important year. We have just discussed it... If we agree, no one on the island will dare..."

Before Uncle Huo Tan finished speaking, Li Duoyu insisted: "No matter how important it is, after I finish being the boss today, I won't fight for that candidate again."

Seeing his tough attitude, Chen Huotan was still a little embarrassed. What happened to young people nowadays? Everyone wanted to rack their brains to work for one more term. If he refused simply, he would refuse.

Nowadays, the scene is so embarrassing!

Fortunately, at this time, Chen Yuanshan from Chenjiacun stood up and said: "Duoyu, if you don't want to be the leader, then we recommend you to be the director of the ancestral temple. What do you think?"

"ah?"

From being the head of the Tianhou Temple on Dandan Island to being a director of the Ancestral Temple on Meizhou Island, not only was he not demoted, but he was promoted.

"Can I really be a director there?" Li Duoyu was really excited. After all, ordinary people couldn't become directors of the ancestral temple.

"Yes, there is a quota on our island."

However, Li Duoyu is not so naive. Chairman Chen from the next village would be so kind. If he were so easy to take, he would have been elected long ago.

One hundred percent conditional. (End of chapter)
