Chapter 45: Everything is ready, the east wind has come
Chapter 45 Everything is ready, the east wind has come
City people want a house.
The mountain people want a truck.
And what seaside fishermen like them want most is a fishing boat of their own.
Not only is it convenient to travel, but you can also ride the wind and waves on the sea and go out to sea to set nets for fishing.
Li Duoyu took the paint and painted the newly purchased sampan with new markings.
From now on, this boat is his.
Coupled with Lao Li's sculling sampan, their family already has two boats, which can barely meet the daily management needs of thirty acres of kelp.
After getting the boat.
The first thing Li Duoyu did was to drive this powered sampan to the kelp breeding raft to check the situation.
After learning that Li Duoyu bought the boat for two thousand.
At the pier, the fish sellers were all envious and some were so angry that they slapped their thighs. Lao Ye’s boat was very new and sold very cheaply.
They all want it too.
But Lao Ye was in a hurry to ask for money, and they couldn't come up with so much money at the same time, otherwise they would have to sell the ship no matter what.
"well!"
“This guy Li Duoyu got a huge advantage for nothing.”
In a simple wooden shed near the dock.
The women who were weaving nets were all opened-eyed when they saw Li Duoyu taking out the two brand-new bundles and buying the boat.
“This smuggler is really rich.”
“Two thousand yuan, just pay it when you say it.”
Those who work hard like them, who weave nets for their employers, can only earn a dollar a day, and they don’t know how long it will take them to earn enough to pay for a boat.
“Mei Ying, didn’t Li Duoyu go to sea with your husband before? Why did he break up and change his career recently?”
“I don’t know what’s going on with him.”
Zhang Meiying had a dark face. She felt unhappy when she saw Li Duoyu. She felt that he had so much money now and it was not because of their motorboat.
At the beginning, Agui asked him to sell goods together to make money.
He is just a street kid who feeds off his wife.
Obviously I got such a big advantage.
But some time ago, I didn’t know why I was so crazy, so I just broke up.
His Agui was so angry that he drank for several days. Every time he got drunk, he would scold Li Duoyu for several hours.
On the night when Li Duoyu's photo with the boss was published in the newspaper, Agui drank too much and didn't expect to go crazy. Even she suffered the consequences.
The beating was in vain.
Zhang Meiying gets angry when she sees Li Duoyu now. She always feels that everything is his fault and wishes he could go bankrupt by raising kelp.
A village woman weaving a net said:
“Li Duoyu is so rich, your Agui family must have a household worth ten thousand yuan.”
“That’s right, Mei Ying, you are considered a rich man, why do you come out to compete with us for jobs? Hurry up and go back to live the life of a wife.”
Zhang Meiying smiled awkwardly.
Others said that his Agui made a lot of money, but her Agui never told her how much money he made.
She only gave her some basic living expenses every month, and never even bought her clothes.
“I’m used to it, but if I don’t come here to weave a net for a day, I feel uncomfortable.”
“If you don’t enjoy your blessings, your life will be really tiring.”
A place not far away.
There was a group of women sitting on small stools, prying oysters. Zhang Guifen, Li Duoyu’s aunt, said to Chen Huiying:
“The fourth child in our family has changed a lot recently.”
“Why did you become so good all of a sudden?”
“When I had an afro perm, I didn’t like it, but it’s much better now.”
Chen Huiying smiled:
“Maybe it’s Mazu’s blessing.”
Zhang Guifen continued:
“It’s good, why do you want to raise kelp? Atai, the kelp farmer in the next village, is still in debt. Why didn’t you persuade your family to have more fish?”
Chen Huiying sighed:
“If the child is willing to fight, I can only support him.”
“By the way, Guifen, are you free in the next few days? If so, you may have to come and help our family plant kelp seedlings.”
"Yes, we are all casual workers. Wherever there is money from the employer, we will work for whomever." "That's it, don't say that we are not available when the time comes."
After arriving at the kelp farming raft.
Li Duoyu pulled up a kelp rope and checked it. It seemed that Lao Li had cleaned it very cleanly for him these days. There were no barnacles on the rope or the floating ball.
For people who are engaged in breeding.
Barnacles are very annoying things. If they are not cleaned regularly and allowed to grow, they will not only be difficult to clean, but may also damage the kelp rope.
After checking the kelp rope.
Li Duoyu checked the kelp pile again.
There were so many wooden stakes, but none of them were pulled out.
This was a bit beyond his expectation.
In previous lives, kelp farmers used moso bamboo piles to save costs. As a result, they had to hire people to repair the piles every once in a while.
However, he used large casuarina stakes for the thirty acres, and each stake was driven into the seabed. Unless there was a typhoon, it would not be easy to pull out the stakes.
While he was looking at the kelp farming raft.
A cool sea breeze blew from the northeast, making Li Duoyu on the boat shiver.
For most fishermen.
When the northeast wind comes, it means it is difficult to catch fish, because the sea fish will leave the shallow water and go to the deep sea to spend the winter.
At that time, except for fishing boats such as trawlers, it will be difficult for other small boats to catch marine fish.
But for Li Duoyu, who farms kelp, he wishes the weather would be colder.
The colder the weather, the better the kelp grows.
Li Duoyu stretched half of his arm into the seawater and found that the water was already very cold and ice-cold. According to his experience in his previous life, this water temperature was enough to bring in kelp seedlings.
After getting off the breeding raft.
Li Duoyu immediately turned on the radio and tuned to the local weather forecast channel. Sure enough, after listening for a while, he received the latest weather forecast news.
“Affected by the cold northeasterly wind, our province will experience a large-scale cooling. Within 48 hours, the minimum temperature will drop by 79℃. Please be prepared for cold protection.”
After hearing this weather forecast.
Li Duoyu changed his clothes and planned to go to the Fisheries Research Institute to find his uncle Chen Dongqing and ask the institute to prepare kelp seedlings for him.
Unexpectedly, we just arrived at the dock.
However, he found that his uncle Chen Dongqing had already come over. When he saw Li Duoyu, he shouted excitedly:
“I have good news for you, the cold air is coming early this year.”
As a result, he shouted.
Half of the people in the dock dislike him. This is not good news.
Chen Dongqing was a little embarrassed and quickly pulled Li Duoyu aside: "Do you have a boat?"
Li Duoyu pointed to the boat he just bought.
“Just bought it today.”
"That's good. When the time comes, the institute will also send a ship to help. In a few days, we can go to the sea to bring seedlings. Are you ready?"
Li Duoyu nodded.
Looking at the uncle in front of him who was more active than himself, others didn't know it and thought he was the one raising kelp.
The two had a brief chat at the dock, and then my uncle Chen Dongqing followed the boat from the Fisheries Research Institute back.
The time for seedling planting has been determined.
The Dai Houtian Fisheries Research Institute will send kelp seedlings here.
The kelp seedlings cannot be left out of the water for too long.
Once picked, it must be clamped to the kelp rope as soon as possible and then hung to the breeding raft.
Not only do we need more manpower, we also need to be quick.
Therefore, it is best for Li Duoyu to simply build a few small sheds close to the kelp breeding raft to prevent the kelp from being exposed to the sun when the kelp is caught.
Just when Li Duoyu was busy.
That night, a big event was happening in Rongcheng.
Led by the Anti-Piracy Office, the main leaders and cadres of many departments were removed and stationed in Shangfeng Town overnight.
That night, more than 60 anti-smuggling boats appeared on the sea.
Please read the new book and recommend it.
