Vol 3 Chapter 456: Watching Li Duoyu make money is more uncomfortable than losing money himself

the next day.

 The second sister-in-law caught the earliest ferry and rushed back to Haixin Eel Factory.

Seeing her return, Zhang Xuejin and his group immediately asked, "Have you found a solution?"

Zhu Xiuhua nodded: "I found it. Director Li of our village said that it is most likely white spot disease and small melon worm."

 Zhang Xuejin frowned and said, "Of course I know about white spot disease and melonworm. I'm asking you how to solve this problem."

Zhu Xiuhua looked at him as if he were a fool: "I've told you what caused it, and how to treat it, isn't it the business of you breeding experts?"

"you"

Zhu Xiuhua interrupted directly: "You, you, and I know everything we want, so why do we need you guys? Why don't we build our own eel factory, so we don't have to listen to your dogs barking here."

 Zhang Xuejin and others were stunned for a moment. Zhu Xiuhua, who used to be submissive, what happened today?

 Did you take the wrong medicine?

Zhang Xuejin sneered and said: "We all signed an agreement. If the eels cannot be raised, you will have to pay a lot of money. You must not know this."

“It’s okay, just wait until the eel farming fails and then sue me. Anyway, I have already told you the solution.

 Besides, I am illiterate and you did not explain it clearly to me when you signed the contract. When the time comes, I can still sue you for fraud. "

Zhang Xuejin and others were silent. Zhu Xiuhua was usually as stupid as a pig, very obedient and easy to control.

Having only been back for a day, he seemed to be a completely different person. His intuition told him that Zhu Xiuhua had 100% received guidance from an expert.

 And that person is most likely Li Duoyu. Yes, the tone of his words just now really looked like that street kid Li Duoyu.

The big boss of Haixin also wants to run the eel factory well. Now he has invested so much and even confirmed it with the county leaders.

If things go wrong, Zhu Xiuhua is okay and can hide directly back to Dandan Island, but they are not so lucky. Maybe their jobs in the school will be destroyed.

Zhang Xuejin pushed up his glasses and said with a smile: "Teacher Zhu, we are a group. We are in the same boat now and we should help each other."

"Who is in the same group as you?" Zhu Xiuhua sneered: "That's not what you said before. It's not like I'm just here to make up the numbers."

Lin Youming on the side saw that something was wrong and quickly said: "This is not good. We are a group from the beginning. We should unite and face the problem together."

Zhu Xiuhua scolded directly: "You're just a **** wallflower, can you have some opinions?"

 “Teacher Zhu, you“

 Lin Youming was so angry that his chest heaved. He pointed at Zhu Xiuhua and said, "A good man doesn't fight with women."

Zhu Xiuhua smiled, and as expected, she was still very powerful. He only taught her a few words, and the group of people lost their temper.

 Actually, he didn’t say anything, he just said: “Just as you disgusted them as much as you hated us in the first place.”

Seeing that the two of them were unable to reply after being scolded by him, Zhu Xiuhua was particularly happy, and the haze of the past six months was instantly swept away.

What makes her most happy is that even after scolding these people, they still smile.

Zhang Xuejin said with a smile: "Teacher Zhu, we did have some unpleasant things in the past. In the face of big things, can you put them down first? Did your brother-in-law tell you what caused our disease and how to treat it?" ah."

 “Yes, Duoyu knows how to treat, but.”

Zhu Xiuhua sighed: "As you know very well, Li Duoyu is a businessman. He is only willing to tell half of what he says. If you ask him to help, there will definitely be a fee."

Zhang Xuejin finally let go of his worries. He was really afraid that Li Duoyu would act out of his own will and would not help them no matter what.

If he is a businessman, it will be easier. Problems that can be solved with money are not problems.

 “How much does Director Li charge?”

Zhu Xiuhua said helplessly: "The price he asked was too high, and I was a little embarrassed to say it."

“It’s okay, if it costs one or two thousand yuan, our eel factory can still afford it, just say it.”

Zhu Xiuhua said word for word: "His fee is 5,000 yuan for asking a question and 30,000 yuan for helping to solve a problem."

"ah!"

Zhang Xuejin and Lin Youming opened their mouths: "No, Zhu Xiuhua, your brother-in-law is crazy about money."

“Thirty thousand yuan, why didn’t he grab it?”

In this era when there are very few households with 10,000 yuan, Zhang Xuejin finds it incredible that he can ask for 30,000 yuan.

Zhu Xiuhua sighed: "If Teacher Zhang and Teacher Lin also feel that the price is unreasonable, then there is nothing they can do.

I can only ask you to work harder and treat eels properly. If even experts like you cannot solve this problem, then we may have to give up eel farming. "

Zhang Xuejin’s mouth twitched, and his face was horribly gloomy: “Zhu Xiuhua, you must have forgotten, right? If you can’t raise the eels, you should know the consequences. Aren’t you afraid that your family will be affected?”

Zhu Xiuhua waved her hands: "What can I do? I can only blame myself for being stupid and being tricked by you into signing that agreement. If I really can't afford it, I will go through the divorce process immediately. When the time comes, it will be my own fault. I bear it myself.”

 Zhu Xiuhua glanced at Zhang Xuejin and the others: "But if you really can't support them, the boss will probably talk to you."

Zhang Xuejin couldn't believe it. It had only been one day, but how could Zhu Xiuhua become so sharp-tongued.

Originally, they wanted to rely on Zhu Xiuhua to force Li Duoyu to help, but now, they feel like they are being held hostage.

Lin Youming saw that something was wrong and said quickly: "Let's calm down the fire first. Now is not the time for internal strife. The most important thing for us now is to find a solution quickly."

Zhu Xiuhua directly said: "Anyway, I have told you what kind of disease the eel has. Whether it can be solved is your business. Anyway, my words are here. If you still can't solve it in another week, I told the boss directly.”

Looking at Zhu Xiuhua's back leaving home, Zhang Xuejin gritted his teeth. Unexpectedly, he was the one who was most passive now.

Lin Youming asked: "Teacher Zhang, you have been studying eels for the longest time. Is there no solution?"

Zhang Xuejin’s eyes were full of unwillingness. Although he worked so hard, he still couldn’t find the reason.

That Li Duoyu is just lucky. With the people from the island country helping him behind the scenes, how could he lose to him?

When I thought about it, he was smiling all day long in school and often played with the students. He was obviously married, but he was still so popular with women.

Zhang Xuejin clenched his fists until his veins bulged out. Why could a person who worked so hard like him not get good results?

  A person like him who is stained all over his body can actually make a lot of money.

 But what he couldn't accept the most was that Li Duoyu seemed to be the only one who had ever raised eels in China, and he did have the most experience.

In fact, up to this point in his research, he is still very unfamiliar with eels, and he can’t even figure out their living habits.

 The process of studying the disease in fish is very long. Since he is not particularly familiar with eels, he can only use the elimination method.

 A week ago, he already knew that eels had white spot disease and parasitic melonworms, which he could cure.

 But he didn't understand why the outbreak continued after he was cured. He always felt that he had ignored particularly important information.

 Scientific research is like this. Often a single mistake can lead to a total loss. What he lacks most now is time. As long as he is given another month or two, he is confident that he can find out the cause of eel disease.

 But by then, it will be 100% too late, and the eel fry may all be out of season, and the boss has already negotiated the foreign trade order some time ago, and it is impossible to give him so much time now.

“Teacher Zhang, what should we do now? Do we really need to pay for that Li Duoyu?”

Zhang Xuejin gritted his teeth: "Thirty thousand yuan a time, how is that possible? Do you think we are fools?"

“Teacher Zhang, is there anything you can do? We don’t have much time.”

 Zhang Xuejin lowered his head and thought for a long time, thinking that this was not something they could decide.

 But if the boss knew that they had just started raising eels and there was such a big problem, they would definitely slap the table and curse.

Now that time is so tight, the boss probably has no choice but to be ripped off, and he can only pay for the 30,000 yuan.

Zhang Xuejin was thinking that he could not wait for Zhu Xiuhua’s report. He must report the situation to his boss in advance and try to clear himself of his responsibilities.

But when he thought that Li Duoyu could earn so much money just by talking, he felt itchy with hatred.

Seeing him make money is more uncomfortable than losing money and going bankrupt.

 It’s still a long time since the New Year.

There are still nine days left, and the New Year flavor on the island is already very strong, and the sound of firecrackers can be heard from time to time.

Those who went out to work and study abroad have almost all come back, and now the island is very lively.

 In addition, everyone has made a lot of money this year and is spending a lot of money on things.

 The supply and marketing cooperative is full of villagers. In the past, everyone bought melon seeds by the cup, but this year everyone’s pockets have become bigger and they are talking louder.

“Give me a pound of black melon seeds and white melon seeds.”

“Half a catty of each kind of candied fruit.”

In these days at the end of the year, there are people going to the fair every day. Now the villagers of Dandan Island are the main consumer group in the market.

  Often a whole family would go there, buy everything from head to toe, and change all the clothes on the body.

Some people who have made a lot of money really want to buy three big items, but the big windmill project seems not ready yet.

At Dandan Island Pier, Shitou saw Li Duoyu and asked directly: "Brother Yu, when will the electricity be turned on? I really want to buy a color TV."

Li Duoyu smiled: "I guess it won't be that soon. It may have to wait until next summer."

 “Why does it take so long?”

Shitou couldn't help but sigh: "It's really uncomfortable to have money in your hands but no place to spend it."

Hearing this, Lao Lu smiled and said: "If you don't know how to spend it, give it to me and I will spend it for you."

 “You are overthinking. Why should I spend the money I earn on you?”

At this moment, the ferry to and from Qingkou Pier docked, and the group of people who went to the market early in the morning to catch the fair came back.

They all carried big and small bags, as if they could use everything. The most exaggerated thing was that a villager named Zhang Furui just bought a lot of piglets back.

At this time, Shitou discovered that Lin Shanshan and her son were also on the passenger ship. If yes, they should also be going to the fair.

Stone struggled for a while, then he bravely boarded the ship and squeezed onto the passenger ship.

 One of the villagers who couldn't squeeze in shouted:

“Shitou, you have a boat, why don’t you just sail it yourself? Why are you competing for seats with those of us who don’t have a boat?”

“There is no charge for fuel to sail the boat. There is also a management fee for parking at the dock. Of course it is more cost-effective to take a passenger boat to go to the fair.”

Lin Shanshan frowned and glanced at him. It was very clear why Shitou wanted to get on the boat. Facing this young man like her brother, she was really confused.

 Evidently I have already rejected him.

 The Shitou family also talked to her privately, and she made it clear that it was impossible, but why was this child so stubborn?

At this time, Li Duoyu shouted: "Anyone who wants to catch the polder, I am just going to Qingkou Pier and can send it to you."

 After hearing this, those who had not squeezed onto the passenger ship ran towards Li Duoyu.

“Director Li, I’ll take your boat.”

 Some people who got on the boat jumped directly from the passenger boat to the pier when they heard that Li Duoyu was going too.

 “Director Li, leave a seat for me.”

Just as it happened, an empty seat appeared next to Lin Shanshan. After Shitou glanced at it, he wanted to sit on it, but he didn't have the guts to sit next to Lin Shanshan.

What he didn’t expect was that instead of sitting up, he would be sat on by that stinky foot.

Stinky Feet smiled and said, "I'm lucky. Someone left a seat for me. Thank you, Teacher Lin."

 Shitou's eyes widened, and Lin Shanshan was also very uncomfortable, because her smelly feet smelled like a smelly dog ​​all over her body.

 “Mom, he stinks so much.”

Stinky Feet grinned and said, "Kid, don't talk nonsense. Uncle, this is not called smelly, this is called manly."

Seeing Stinky Feet talking to Shanshan, Shitou stepped forward directly and said with a dark face: "I'm sorry for you, please get up. I just went out and you came to grab my seat."

Stinky Feet replied on the spot: "What's your seat? Is your name written on it? It's first come, first served, okay?"

"I'll count to three. If you don't get up, don't blame me for being rude."

Stinky Feet also said stubbornly: "Come here, hit me if you dare. If you dare to hit me, I will report the case to the police station immediately."

Seeing the two of them arguing, Lin Shanshan stood up and said to her son: "If you are afraid of the smell, let's go to the stern of the boat."

“Yeah, I like to go to the stern of the boat to see the waves made by the propeller.”

Seeing Lin Shanshan leave like this, Shitou didn't know what to do for a while. He said with a grunt: "It's good to go, I can sit three seats by myself, and you can just lie down and sleep."

Seeing that Stinky Feet was so arrogant, Shitou took off his Jiefang shoes and started fighting poison with Stinky Feet.

 “Fuck your uncle, stone.”

Stinky Feet was not convinced, so he took off his worn-out Jiefang shoes. For a moment, the cabin was filled with smell.

 Finally some villagers couldn't bear it anymore.

“You two are sick, put my shoes on quickly, or I will throw you both into the sea.” (End of Chapter)
