Vol 3 Chapter 511: Second sister-in-law was fired
As the eels grew older, the small pond originally used to fill the eel fry was transformed into a shrimp farming pond after disinfection and disinfection.
Just like raising eels, the pond is still covered with a plastic tarpaulin, and the bottom of the pond is covered with a thick layer of sea sand. The purpose of this is to simulate the real living environment of Chinese shrimp.
Just transporting this sea sand cost Li Duoyu nearly 40 yuan in labor costs, and the purpose of this is to provide the shrimp with an excellent living environment as much as possible.
After all, these shrimps will only consider reproducing offspring if they live comfortably. This seems to be the same for humans.
In the previous life, houses were sold too expensively, and everyone had no fixed place to live. Young people were unwilling to get married, let alone have children.
In addition to giving them a "good house" to live in, Li Duoyu also asked the fishmonger Mr. Mi to help him buy a certain number of lugworms every day, which are the favorites of sea shrimps.
In short, if you want shrimps to lay eggs, you must not only provide them with good housing, but also provide them with good food and make them comfortable to serve. Then they will naturally be willing to breed the next generation.
If the shrimp still refuses to lay eggs after this service, then Li Duoyu has no choice but to take out the surgical forceps.
At that time, collectively blind these shrimps, and they will become breeding machines.
Of course it is best if you don’t prune the eyes, but if they really don’t want to lay eggs, then they have no choice but to prune them.
Brother-in-law Chen Dongqing has been observing these broodstock shrimps at the eel factory during this period.
Every time I see Li Duoyu, I can't help but ask: "It's been more than two months, why are these shrimps still not ready to mate?"
Li Duoyu smiled and said:
“What’s the rush? It’s not time yet.”
Chen Dongqing has practiced the technique of cutting shrimp eyes many times recently, and couldn't help but said: "How about we make them blind."
Li Duoyu said disgustedly: "Why don't you have any patience? How can you do scientific research like this?"
The uncle rolled his eyes and said: "Who said that people who engage in scientific research must be patient? The researchers in our unit are more grumpy than the others."
While chatting with my uncle, I suddenly remembered something and couldn't help but ask: "Holly, I've always been wondering why these things are called prawns when they don't come in pairs."
Chen Dongqing thought for a while and said: "I really know this. When I was studying in the north, I heard the teacher tell me that the name prawn has a long origin. My teacher gave the lecture for almost half a class. Anyway, you know It would be great if the name "Pray" was given by the Empress Dowager Cixi."
“Hey, you have nothing to do anyway, so just give me a lecture, and you won’t lose a piece of meat.”
Chen Dongqing pinched **** and took two sips, indicating to Li Duoyu that he meant it.
Li Duoyu rolled her eyes at him, took out a pack of cigarettes and threw it on the spot. The other person caught it with both hands, his face full of surprise.
“Okay, Mr. Li, I recently switched to Marlboro.”
Li Duoyu said: "I bought it from Hong Kong Island. It's the last pack. It's gone after I smoked it."
Chen Dongqing opened the cigarette case, flicked a cigarette out, took out the "Chicken Boom" lighter that Li Duoyu gave him from his pocket, lit the cigarette, and took a heavy puff.
"Seeing that you are so sincere, I will tell you carefully that the origin of the name shrimp is related to a maid named Cui Gu who was beside the Empress Dowager Cixi. This maid served the Empress Dowager for many years. When it was time to get married, she The Queen Mother felt that she was using it smoothly, so she didn't want to let him go.
But she wouldn't let him go, and the maid didn't dare to mention it. She was getting older and older.
Cuigu's family members were very anxious, and her uncle in the imperial kitchen couldn't bear to see her wasting her youth in the palace.
So he tried his best to come up with a dish called "The Matchmaker's Own Pairing" for Cixi to eat. The raw material of this dish happened to be prawns, and they were arranged in pairs.
It means that when a girl gets older, she should find someone to marry. Cixi, who always likes to think about things, soon understood the name of this dish after hearing it.
In the end, Cixi let the maid named Cui Gu out of the palace. After Cui Gu was freed, she immediately married her aunt's nephew.
This incident spread to the Eight Banners Barracks in the Outer Firearms Camp. Vendors on the South Gate Street of the Indigo Factory sold the prawns one by one and named them prawns. "
"So this is ah."
Li Duoyu has been eating shrimps all his life, and now he finally understands where the name came from, but he still can't help but complain.
“The people in this palace are really particular about it. Even if the matchmaker matches her, braised prawns in oil is enough.”
Chen Dongqing smiled and said: "You are really right. This dish was originally called braised prawns. I heard a lot of dish names like this when I was studying in the north. I hope you can do it for me. For the sake of cigarettes, why don’t I tell you a few more.”
“No, I’m not interested in anything else.”
Chen Dongqing snorted: "Why are you so boring? If you ask me, I've told you everything. Now I want to tell it, but you don't want to hear it anymore."
“Everyone has a refractory period, okay? After you become soft, you won’t want it again.”
“Your sister, can’t you talk nicely?”
Li Duoyu frowned and looked at his uncle in front of him, and couldn't help but ask: "I noticed that you seem to be bored recently. Did you quarrel with my aunt again?"
Hearing this, Chen Dongqing sighed and said, "If you buy me two more bottles of beer, I will tell you what happened."
“I’m not interested in your family’s affairs, so why should I treat you to a beer?”
Chen Dongqing gritted his teeth and said, "Damn it, why are you so annoying? Your aunt and I had a fight, and you weren't the one who caused it. Go bankrupt as soon as possible. Only if you have a hard time, can I feel better."
Li Duoyu said disgustedly: "What's wrong with me? I'm bankrupt. What good can you do?"
"Of course it's beneficial." Chen Dongqing said helplessly: "This way your aunt won't compare you with me all day long. Let me tell you, your aunt is getting more and more perverted now, and she is just like a piece of shit." Mine, I feel like everything I do at home is wrong.”
Chen Dongqing said with emotion:
“Let me tell you, when looking for a wife in the future, you must not find a woman with a good family background. You must be well-matched.”
Li Duoyu looked disgusted:
“I already have children, okay?”
Chen Dongqing snorted coldly: "I don't believe it. When you get rich, you will still be as honest as you are now. Men become bad when they get rich. This is a law."
“Sorry, Comrade Chen Dongqing, I am very rich now, my wife is very beautiful, my children are very cute, my family is happy, and my life is quite comfortable.”
Chen Dongqing was startled for a moment. Li Duoyu was indeed right. If you don't count the overseas Chinese who came back from Nanyang to set up factories, Li Duoyu was indeed the richest in the county.
Chen Dongqing took a puff of cigarette: "Sometimes recently, I always feel that life is meaningless. I work hard to make money, but I still have to be rejected when I go home. If it weren't for Wenwen, I really want to become a monk."
Li Duoyu said casually: "Do you think that monks have a pure heart and have no such nonsense?"
“It seems right.”
Chen Dongqing became more and more excited as she talked: "Tell me, our family has a combined income of 200 yuan a month, which is more than the income of most families. What else can she be dissatisfied with?"
Seeing that his uncle started grumbling and complaining again, Li Duoyu said quickly: "Stop, you already told me these words when you came here last time."
But this time, my brother-in-law also participated in the shrimp farm, and he got 50% of the dividends. Women only do those things.
Either my brother-in-law is not in good health and cannot provide good service in that regard. As long as he lives well, he can get one or two shots a week, which is guaranteed to be better than anything else.
Either worship money. Actually worshiping money is the best thing to do. As long as you make money and satisfy her vanity, she will naturally stop causing trouble.
Second brother Li Yaoguo, who was resting on a rocking chair beside him, sighed: "My uncle has complained to me three times in the past few days."
Li Yaoguo used to think that his mother-in-law was scary, but after listening to his uncle's words, he felt that it was even more scary when women with high diplomas and good family backgrounds started trouble.
It was simply cold violence, coupled with mental torture. Zhu Xiuhua's mouth was a bit broken, and her aunt's attack was simply a magic attack. While they were chatting, an uninvited guest came to the door of the eel factory, but before she even got close to the door, she was stopped by Zhu Jianmin.
“You can’t go in.”
The burly woman glared and said, "Why can't I go in? I'm no longer from Haixin, so why can't I go in?"
Zhu Jianmin said with a fierce look on his face: "You have a criminal record. Anyway, I don't believe you."
“Zhu Jianmin, I am your daughter, won’t your conscience hurt if you treat your daughter like this? Besides, my family Yaoguo is also there, is it wrong for me to bring him food?”
Zhu Jianmin stretched out his hand and said, "Just give me the lunch box, and I'll send it to my son-in-law. That's all."
“Your son-in-law calls you so kindly, why are you so cruel to your daughter?”
“You must be principled when doing things. Since I have received money from Director Li, I will not let you in this door no matter what.”
“I’ve told you that I’m no longer with Haixin and I’m no longer working for them. Why don’t you listen?”
Hearing the quarrel outside, especially the woman's voice, Li Yaoguo, who was lying on the rocking chair, stood up quickly.
Li Duoyu said curiously:
“Second sister-in-law, when did you come back?”
Li Yaoguo said: "I came back overnight yesterday. I just wanted to tell you about this. Your sister-in-law seemed to have been fired by Haixin Eel Factory, but I don't know whether it was real or fake."
“Ah is it true or false?”
When the three of them came to the door, they saw the second sister-in-law whom they had not seen for a long time. The moment he saw her, Li Duoyu suddenly felt in a trance and almost did not recognize the second sister-in-law.
He has lost a whole lot of weight, is very tanned, his expression looks very tired, and even the crow's feet are obvious.
She is not much older than Zhou Xiaoying, but if the two of them were together, some people would believe that the second sister-in-law was Zhou Xiaoying's mother.
“Second sister-in-law, it’s really you.”
After seeing Li Duoyu, Zhu Xiuhua's originally stinky face became gentle: "Duoyu, you came just in time, I just have something to ask you."
Li Duoyu smiled:
“That’s just right, I also have something to ask you.”
A group of people came to the office of the eel factory. Li Duoyu simply made tea and asked, "Second sister-in-law, didn't you sign a contract with them and they just let you go?"
Speaking of this, Zhu Xiuhua became particularly angry: "They found an eel breeding expert from an overseas province. You should know about this, right?"
Li Duoyu nodded.
“Yes, I have heard of it.”
Zhu Xiuhua said angrily: "Haixin and the others are really bullying. After this breeding expert came, they gave this expert my share of the dividends.
A group of people even put a **** basin on my head, saying that it was my improper management that caused a large number of eels to die.
He also said that I was a traitor. He defrauded the company of 30,000 yuan with you, and then kicked me away. He didn’t even pay me this month’s salary. These people usually look like human beings, but they can’t do this. Things are really like dogs. "
“Isn’t this a good thing? You couldn’t leave even if you wanted to.”
Li Duoyu knew very well that the second sister-in-law could leave if she wanted to leave before. The reason why she didn't leave was because she couldn't bear to part with her dividends.
Now that the dividends have been cancelled, there is really no need for her to stay with Haixin, but they do not have the slightest sense of contract.
Li Duoyu even suspected that the contracts they signed with the second sister-in-law at the beginning were all fake. He probably didn't want to pay her any dividends from the beginning.
Zhu Xiuhua said seriously: "Duoyu, I am here today to tell you a secret about Haixin Eel Factory."
After hearing this, Li Duoyu was suddenly very interested: "Okay, let's talk and listen."
The second sister-in-law said seriously: "Some time ago, the eels in our eel factory kept dying again. I suggested to Mr. Zhang that you should solve the problem. Then he refused and found an eel breeding expert from an overseas province.
After this person comes.
Just looked at it briefly and started pouring some potion into the pool.
Unexpectedly, it was really effective. In less than three days, the eel's condition really improved. "
After hearing this, Chen Dongqing asked curiously: "Xiuhua, do you know what kind of potion he poured into the pond?"
Zhu Xiuhua shook her head: "The words on the bottle are all in foreign languages, and I can't understand them at all. But that person said that most eel diseases can be treated with this medicine. What else did he say, no matter whether the eel is sick or not, every other week It’s better to use it once.”
“Eh”
After hearing this, Chen Dongqing frowned, took a breath, and then looked at Li Duoyu.
Li Duoyu also nodded to him.
The two of them already had a rough answer in their minds. Those who could stabilize the eel's condition so quickly in a short period of time could only be said to have taken strong medicine.
Li Duoyu also guessed what drug the other party used. It was most likely a drug that was banned by the Fisheries Bureau in his previous life.
During the breeding process, drugs such as quinolones, antibiotics, sulfonamides and furans are really useful.
Especially powerful broad-spectrum antibiotics. When you don’t know the cause of the disease, you can use this type of medicine directly, and the effect is still good.
In fact, many clinics in rural areas now use antibiotics all the time. When someone gets sick, they just use "three vegetarian foods and one soup".
But once you use this kind of medicine, you will really become dependent. Next time the eel gets sick, you still won't be able to prescribe the right medicine.
The most important thing is that the testing of this stuff in the island country is very strict, and in the signed contract, it is clearly stated that this type of drug cannot be used.
Once it is detected that there are prohibited drug residues, it will definitely not be exported to the island country. Li Duoyu still remembers it to this day.
When the people from the island country came to buy eels from his island, they first caught some eels from each pond and boarded the boat to test them for a long time.
Probably just to check if there are any drug residues or parasites. After all, these people are really not very good people.
If you are not qualified, they will not tell you anything about worldliness.
But Li Duoyu was too lazy to meddle in other people's business, but he couldn't be so kind as to persuade them not to use these drugs.
The second sister-in-law struggled for a while and couldn't help but ask: "There are so many fish, can they raise them?"
Li Duoyu squinted his eyes and asked, "Second sister-in-law, is it possible that you still want to go back to Haixin?"
The second sister-in-law shook her head: "I won't go back even if I die. Now I can't wait to go to their eel factory and poison them."
After hearing this, the corners of Li Duoyu's mouth twitched. It would be terrible for a woman to hate someone. (End of chapter)
