Vol 3 Chapter 545: eel being impersonated
Under Director Qian’s instructions, Li Duoyu completed the phone call procedures very quickly.
While paying, Li Duoyu asked: "Chief Huang, can I pay by check?"
Huang Zhiqiang smiled. If it were someone else, he would definitely not accept it. After all, the procedure was a bit troublesome. They had to go and exchange it. It would be easier to just get the money.
But if he doesn't accept Director Li's check, it seems that he will be in more trouble.
"Of course you can. If you use a check, we will save the time of counting money."
“Thank you then.”
Li Duoyu took out seven checks worth one thousand yuan from his briefcase.
“Director Li, you took two more.” Huang Zhiqiang was stunned for a moment and quickly returned the extra two to Li Duoyu.
Li Duoyu smiled and pushed the two checks back: "Chief Huang, you are right, my Qixing Bay is indeed a bit remote. It is not easy for the brothers to help pull the wires. These money will allow the brothers to have more money." Eat two delicious meals.”
Section Chief Huang smiled. With this money, he could eat two more good meals, which would last for several months.
“Then I would like to thank Director Li on behalf of my brother.”
After Section Chief Huang accepted the check, he said with a smile on his face: "By the way, Director Li, our bureau has reserved a few good numbers, and we are currently doing activities to hold the phone, and our bureau will give it away for one year." If you have a telegraph registration service, you can choose one if you don’t want a telephone registration number.”
Li Duoyu was a little surprised:
“It’s so good, then I’m not welcome.”
Huang Zhiqiang brought over a book, which was full of phone numbers that could be selected, all with five digits.
And the numbers are particularly good, but most of the numbers related to eight and six have been selected, and the most remaining numbers are four and three.
After all, the homophony of these two words is not good, but Dandan Island does not have this taboo, and instead likes "三" very much.
Li Duoyu simply chose the landline number "53323". As for the telegram registration, Li Duoyu directly chose "5233".
In this era, the usage rate of electric hook-up is much higher than that of telephone. After all, many people are afraid of making phone calls because it is too torturous.
Sometimes, the signal is not good, and you often can’t hear what the other party is saying. Sometimes, when you finally get in touch with the other party, you get a message: “I’m sorry, he’s not here.”
That is even more like vomiting blood.
It seems that this situation will continue to improve until the early 1990s.
But it would be much more convenient in this era to register by telegram. Li Xiaorong had to send a telegram from Shanghai several times before going home.
Li Duoyu's number is more convenient. It actually represents his address in Qixing Bay. As long as you tell the staff the number, the other party will know where to send the phone call.
After completing the formalities, Section Chief Huang said thoughtfully: "Director Li, we in Rongcheng are early adopters. If you want to buy a telephone, it is best to buy an imported one instead of an old model like mine."
“Thank you, Section Chief Huang, for the reminder.”
Huang Zhiqiang smiled and said: "Director Li, I will complete the approval procedures for your phone today. Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, I will send someone to the site to check and try to install your phone as quickly as possible."
“Thank you very much, Chief Huang. Come to our Dandan Island with Director Qian when you have time. I’ll treat you to a seafood dinner.”
Before leaving, Section Chief Huang also gave Li Duoyu a local phone book in Rongcheng. What was so exaggerated was that even the big office number was printed on it.
I’m afraid his number will also be in this book when it is next printed.
After Li Duoyu got the phone number and telegram registration, he went straight to the printing factory.
Nothing happened this time. Li Duoyu at the printing house not only had a phone number, but also a telegraph registration number. He printed more than 2,000 sheets in one go. He had a great attitude.
Even a manager came out to discuss business with Li Duoyu, saying that their printing factory had received a batch of new equipment that could print in color, and asked if his company needed external packaging printing services.
After Li Duoyu finished all these things, it was already after four o'clock in the afternoon, because there was no fishing boat coming.
It is not easy to return to Dandan Island at this point. Fortunately, Chen Wenchao has been told to tell his family before.
I have to do some things, so I may not be able to return to the island tonight.
Li Duoyu was walking on the road in the county town with his briefcase, and then he arrived at the former Xinyue Hotel by accident.
To Li Duoyu’s surprise, the hotel sign from back then disappeared and was replaced by a “pig blood” shop.
The owner of the shop, Li Duoyu, is quite familiar to him. He used to set up a stall on the roadside, but now he has moved into the shop and even has a signboard.
【Jiangjiu Pig Blood Transformation】
After Li Duoyu entered the store, he found a seat and sat down: "Boss, I want a piece of pig blood. Please help me add a piece of braised large intestine, green onions and coriander."
"okay."
The boss looked at Li Duoyu for a moment and recognized him: "You look familiar."
Li Duoyu smiled: "Oh, boss, you have a really good memory. I have indeed come here to eat here several times before."
The boss frowned and said: "You must be different from before. You have changed a lot, otherwise I won't forget it."
Li Duoyu grinned, and he had indeed changed a lot. When I came to eat at his place before, he had an afro, bell-bottom pants, and occasionally two strange necklaces hanging around his neck.
Now, when I think of the look from back then, I feel so embarrassed that I get goosebumps. Li Duoyu is too lazy to help the store owner remember it. It’s better to ask him to forget about that image.
Not long after, a bowl of pig blood with extra braised large intestine was served. The ingredients are very abundant these days, and the surface layer is full of pig blood and large intestine.
After consuming the hot soup and the familiar taste, the whole person seemed to come alive. In a short time, Li Duoyu ate the entire bowl of pig blood without leaving a drop.
Li Duoyu, who was picking his teeth, looked at the store. After all these years, the front desk of the hotel was still there, and it was now the boss's cashier.
The stairs leading upstairs were sealed with iron chains and a seal on top. If I didn’t watch ghost movies very rarely these days, this scene would be really suitable for filming a thriller.
Li Duoyu couldn’t help but ask:
“Isn’t the owner of this hotel out yet?”
The store owner replied: "How can it be so fast? I was dragged to be a model back then and was sentenced to many years."
After he said this, Li Duoyu suddenly thought of the big girl playing fairy dance in this hotel, who seemed to be called "Hua".
That night, they set up a trap next door. Because the signal was misaligned, the older girl was let in by the middle-aged man from out of town who was carrying a Shanghai brand briefcase.
Li Duoyu remembers this matter very clearly. It seems that the couple playing fairy dance had a big quarrel downstairs the next morning. Speaking of which, time flies so fast, it was almost three years ago.
After Li Duoyu finished eating and paid 50 cents, he left the pig blood store, went to the nearby bus station, and got on the bus to Shangfeng Town.
Li Duoyu did not go to Qingkou Wharf, but got off the bus at the entrance of Xiagong Village, the same village where he once stole the fence of the shrimp farm.
During the car ride here, Li Duoyu kept observing the telephone poles, just like Section Chief Huang said.
If you want to get a telephone in Qixing Bay, in a sense, the post and telecommunications office will lose money on this order, because it will have to rewire the phone.
But as a businessman, Li Duoyu knew very well that as long as he pulled the line, if there was someone nearby who connected the phone in the future, the post and telecommunications office would be sure to make a profit.
After getting off the bus near Xiagong Village, Li Duoyu finally arrived at the shrimp farm after walking for almost half an hour.
Li Duoyu spent a lot of money to surround the entire shrimp farm with brick walls. The walls were covered with broken glass, making it difficult to climb in.
After seeing Li Duoyu coming, Uncle Da, who was guarding the iron gate, smiled and said hello: "Director Li, how did you come here on foot?"
“I just happened to be passing by in a car nearby, so I came here.”
Compared to calling him boss, for some reason, people in the factory seem to be more accustomed to calling him director Li.
Li Duoyu smiled and asked: "Uncle Da, is my uncle in the factory today?"
“Yes, I have been sleeping in the factory these days.”
“Didn’t go back?”
Uncle Da nodded.
When Li Duoyu came to the factory, he found a young man with an ugly face and listless spirit.
After seeing Li Duoyu, the other party snorted: "Award for getting rich through hard work, a leader in getting rich, and a star entrepreneur."
Li Duoyu smiled: "We are all engaged in scientific research, what use can these fictitious things be?"
Chen Dongqing snorted: "You can give it to me if you don't want it. I really want these frivolous things. If you win so many awards, your aunt will definitely talk about me to death."
Seeing his uncle mention his aunt again, Li Duoyu quickly changed the subject: "How have the shrimp seedlings been doing in the past two days?"
“Oh, Boss Li, you finally remembered that you still raise shrimps, right?”
“Aren’t you busy lately?”
The uncle complained, but he wasn't the kind of person who wouldn't let go of something. Instead, he said with concern: "The eels will come out of the pond soon this year. You should be fine there."
Li Duoyu smiled and said: "That's for sure. With me watching, how can there be any problems?"
“You can’t be humble, you act like I’m stupid.”
Chen Dongqing continued: "Let me tell you something, something big happened at Haixin Eel Factory. The eels there are suffering from a complex disease, and no one in the factory can solve it."
Li Duoyu nodded.
He was probably expecting that this situation would occur at the Haixin Eel Factory. The eel fry themselves had problems, so it was a miracle that they could grow to such a large size.
Actually, even if the eels from the Haixin Eel Factory are not diseased, they cannot be exported.
Chen Dongqing suddenly said a little seriously: "By the way, there is something I want to tell you. When selling grilled eel this year, you'd better change the packaging."
Li Duoyu was a little puzzled.
“Why do you need to change the packaging?”
Chen Dongqing frowned and said, "I'll show you something directly, and you should understand."
Chen Dongqing took out a packaged box of grilled eel from the freezer in the factory.
After seeing this package of grilled eel.
Li Duoyu was dumbfounded on the spot. The packaging was exactly the same as the grilled eel he sold last year.
But last year’s grilled eel has long been out of stock.
Even the big bosses can’t eat it if they want to, so there’s no way to keep it in stock.
Li Duoyu couldn’t help but ask:
“Where did you get this eel?”
Chen Dongqing frowned: "A few days ago, didn't our institute go to the Haixin Eel Factory to treat eels? Then a comrade accidentally bumped into their warehouse and found this thing, so he ordered a box of it. come out."
Li Duoyu was stunned for several seconds.
I instantly understood what was going on, and couldn't help but curse on the spot: "Fuck you, Zhang Sanming."
Looking at the frozen grilled eel in his hand, Li Duoyu immediately heated up the grilled eel, took two bites with chopsticks, frowned, and then spit out the eel meat directly.
It can be said that apart from the packaging, the taste and texture of this product are completely different, and they are not of the same grade at all.
You can clearly feel at the entrance that these grilled eels are marinated in sauce and then grilled. They are not grilled and brushed with sauce at the same time.
There is also a problem with the eel meat. The meat is very loose. The piece near the belly has a strong fishy smell and a vague rancid smell.
If you guessed it correctly, the other party had been dead for a long time before grilling these eels, so they should have been made from eels that died of illness.
Furthermore, Li Duoyu felt that the hygienic conditions of this batch of grilled eels were definitely not up to standard. If they were sold like this, many people would probably have diarrhea after eating them.
Originally, the water in the well does not interfere with the water in the river. You kill your eels and I make my money. But if you sell those **** eels as my brand, you are destroying my brand.
Li Duoyu has been trying to build Minlong Food into a brand worthy of consumers' trust for the past two years, but he didn't expect it to be counterfeited so quickly.
This has seriously affected his interests. This matter must not be left alone. You are so lawless.
I'll kill you if I don't.
I feel really sorry for myself. (End of chapter)
