In 1983, a small island started from a large farmer

Chapter 07 Ludao, I, Li Duoyu, am here

infAlthough the beginning of summer has passed.

But Dandan Island is still very hot, and the stone strips in the courtyard are too hot to sit on.

Because it's too hot.

Everyone also went home to escape the heat temporarily, and fishermen did not dare to go fishing in the bright sun.

Li Duoyu fished out a "cold watermelon" from the well.

There is a village here in Shangfeng Town that specializes in growing watermelons, and there are quite a lot of them. Watermelons are not a rare commodity here.

It seems that they are all growing the same variety, called Black Beauty watermelon.

After taking out the watermelon, a group of children were already waiting there. Not only Xiaopangdun, Zhang Lin and Zhang Yun, but also the children from the eldest and second cousin's families were also here, as well as Li Qingguang, the king of the children. exist.

Everyone looked at them with wide eyes and kept swallowing saliva.

Li Duoyu flicked the watermelon with his fingers and said, "Okay, this watermelon will be ripe."

The little fat boy chuckled and said, "Uncle, the watermelons you buy are always good."

Li Qingguang said disdainfully, "You're a flatterer."

After Li Duoyu cut the watermelon open with a knife, the flesh was quite red, but the skin was a little thicker. After all, melons in this era had not yet been baptized by technology, and there were no thin-skinned, seedless melons.

Li Duoyu gave it to the children first.

The little fat boy finished the watermelon in just two bites and grinned, "Uncle, I want another slice."

Chen Huiying couldn't help but curse

"No one is trying to snatch it from you. Why are you eating it so quickly? You may get a stomachache later. You guys, don't throw away the watermelon rind after you finish it. I'll peel it off later and you can use it for salad dressing."

In the hot summer, for Dandan Island without electricity, it is really refreshing to have an iced watermelon to relieve the heat.

When everyone ate watermelon, they almost ate all the red flesh.

The little fat man wanted to eat the white piece until the end.

"Stop biting it. You've eaten it all. How can I cook the watermelon rind?"

After the two little girls, Zhang Lin and Zhang Yun, finished their meal, they said to Li Duoyu, "Thank you, uncle, for buying us some watermelon."

Li Duoyu touched their heads. The two nieces had only been on the island for two months, and it was obvious to the naked eye that they had become much rounder.

"Is watermelon delicious?"

The eldest, Zhang Lin, smiled and said, "It's delicious and very sweet."

Just as everyone finished eating the watermelon and were about to leave, Li Duoyu coughed twice.

"I'm going to get good food. If I leave now, I won't be able to eat good food later."

Li Haoran, who had just reached halfway up the slope, ran back in a hurry after hearing this.

Li Duoyu took a bamboo pole with a hook and went straight into the well to hook it.

Followed by.

Strings of round fruits with uneven surfaces growing on branches were fished out of the well.

After seeing this fruit, Xiaopangdun, Zhang Lin, and Zhang Yun all frowned, not recognizing this fruit at all.

I even think this fruit looks a bit ugly.

"Uncle, what is this thing? Why does it look a little ugly?"

The moment Li Qingguang saw this thing, his saliva couldn't help but flow out, and he patted the little fat man's head with his right hand.

"You know what? This is a lychee. The uglier the fruit, the more delicious it is."

After hearing the word "lychee", these children's eyes all lit up. Although they have never eaten this stuff, they have long heard how delicious it is.

Chen Huiying said angrily, "I told you not to spend money recklessly. Just buy a watermelon, but you bought something so expensive."

Li Duoyu chuckled.

"I buy it once or twice occasionally. It's okay. Haoran and Zhang Lin haven't eaten lychees yet."

Zhou Xiaoying looked at the lychees in Li Duoyu's hand and couldn't help but swallow her saliva. She had eaten lychees brought by her roommate once when she was in school.

That taste is still unforgettable.

Anyway, the moment I ate it, I immediately understood the context of "eat 300 lychees a day, and you will grow up to be a Lingnan native".

Li Duoyu shared the chilled lychees with everyone, and each person only got a bunch, about ten of them.

This time, Little Fatty ate very slowly. He didn't eat a watermelon in two or three mouthfuls like he did when eating watermelon. Instead, he slowly peeled off the skin and then tore off the membrane, even with the juice dripping on his hands. Can't help but lick it.

After eating the lychee, Little Fatty couldn't bear to spit out the core.

"Uncle, this lychee is the most delicious thing I have ever eaten. It is soft, crunchy, sweet, and even more delicious than jelly."

Immediately afterwards, he put all the remaining lychees in his pocket.

Li Duoyu said, "Haoran, eat the lychees while they are fresh. There is no need to hide them. It's so hot today, and if I put them in your pocket, they will go bad quickly."

Li Haoran grinned and said

"No, I want to bring a few for my dad to eat."

Li Duoyu smiled and said, "You are quite filial. Go quickly then."

What Li Haoran didn't expect was that when he arrived at the eel factory, he found that his father also had lychees.

"Haoran, your uncle gave me a lot of good things. Come over and eat together."

"Dad, you have this too."

Two girls, Zhang Lin and Zhang Yun, came to their mother-in-law Li Shuihua after eating a lychee.

The eldest daughter Zhang Lin suddenly said something.

"Mom, we have always lived on Dandan Island, okay? I don't want to go back to Shangang Village anymore."

Li Shuihua, holding the child, said with a bit of guilt

"It's okay if you don't go back. You two should listen to grandma and Teacher Zhou at school, and help bring more little Tutu when you have time."

The two girls pecked at the rice and nodded.

"We will definitely be obedient."

After eating a few lychees, Zhou Xiaoying asked, "How much did you pay for these lychees?"

Li Duoyu grinned.

"It's not expensive, just two or three yuan."

“If it’s two or three yuan, that’s okay.”

But Li Qingguang at the side was surprised. "Brother, where did you buy these lychees? They are so cheap. I went to the market the day before yesterday. The lychee seller sold them for five yuan even if the shell was slightly discolored. But fresh ones like these were sold for ten yuan per pound."

Heard the price.

Li Shuihua originally wanted to eat another one, but after hearing that a pound of lychees cost ten yuan, she did not dare to continue eating.

If the weight of those branches is counted, it feels like one lychee costs fifty cents, and two of them can be exchanged for a pound of pork.

Chen Huiying's heart was bleeding. If she had known it was so expensive, she should have taken it to worship and let Mazu eat it first.

Zhou Xiaoying frowned and looked at Li Duoyu.

The murderous intent is visible to the naked eye.

Seeing that something was wrong, Li Qingguang realized that he had said the wrong thing. He didn't even dare to look at Brother Yu and ran away.

Li Duoyu smiled and said, "Qingguang, don't be anxious, wait for me."

"My dad told me something was wrong."

Seeing that Li Duoyu also wanted to run away, Zhou Xiaoying said with a smile, "Sure, Director Li, my one month's salary was eaten up in less than ten minutes."

Li Duoyu felt so miserable.

These women are so hard to please. I buy you delicious food, but you still scold me.

What Li Duoyu didn't expect was that the one who really came to the rescue was his son.

Little Tutu grabbed a lychee with one hand, and grabbed a half-dead "skink" from nowhere with the other hand, and ran to Li Duoyu.

"Dad, give it to you."

Li Duoyu was speechless and quickly snatched the skink from Xiao Tutu's hand and threw it into the chicken coop.

The half-dead skink was instantly eaten by a group of big roosters.

Li Duoyu was speechless at first glance. Ever since Tutu learned how to walk and run, he had been picking up and grabbing things randomly on the ground. He even caught a toad not long ago. It was really not a worry at all.

He didn't know where he got this skink, but this kind of behavior must be stopped.

Today he dared to catch skinks, and tomorrow he might dare to dig out snakes. Before Li Duoyu could teach him a lesson, Zhou Xiaoying became anxious.

He picked up little Tutu on the spot, went to the well to wash his hands, and beat his hand several times.

"This kind of thing is poisonous. You can't catch it to know whether it's there or not."

After being hit a few times, little Tutu looked aggrieved and said, "I just want to give it to daddy."

After hearing this, everyone couldn't help but laugh, and Li Duoyu also had a wry smile on his face.

After being repaired, little Tutu ran to Li Duoyu aggrievedly and hugged his thigh.

"Dad, ride high."

"Take me out to play."

Li Duoyu pinched his chubby little face, and then let him ride on his shoulders.

Little Tutu grabbed Li Duoyu's ears and said, "Dad, run, let's go play."

Zhou Xiaoying said coldly, "Every time I am asked to play the villain while you play with the kids."

Little Tutu likes to ride on Li Duoyu's head. When he runs, he is very happy and even laughs sharply with joy.

This kid talks more and more now, and he has become very good at running. If he is not careful, he often runs to far away places.

During this period of farming, although Li Duoyu was very busy, he still tried to spare one day a week to accompany him.

In his previous life, Li Duoyu almost never took care of his children. By the time he came back from the island country, the children almost became someone else's father.

When the villagers saw Li Duoyu, they smiled and said hello.

"Director Li, you are out walking the baby again."

"What a good man. There are very few men in the village who will take the initiative to help take care of the baby. Xiaoying's life is really good."

"If you take care of your child like this, be careful of peeing on you."

Little Tutu, who had become somewhat sensible, pouted and said, "I won't pee."

"Haha, your child is so smart, unlike mine, who is over two years old and can't even speak."

Li Duoyu was stunned for a moment. He couldn't speak even at the age of two, so that was a bit of a problem.

I can only hope that it is not a serious disease. I smiled and said to the lady in front of me, "Talk to the child more, and the child will learn."

"Then I'll try it when I go home."

Li Duoyu wandered aimlessly in the village for a while. He heard a knocking on the wall halfway up his waist and followed the sound.

I found that it was Zhao Erniu's family who was demolishing the old house. All the tiles had been removed and the walls were now being smashed.

Zhao Erniu, who was demolishing the wall, ran over quickly when he saw Li Duoyu.

"Brother Yu, my house has been demolished for the past two days. I can't catch blue crab seedlings for the time being. I will catch them again after the demolition is completed."

Li Duoyu smiled and said, "Don't worry, just take your time. How many floors do you plan to build?"

Zhao Erniu scratched his head and said, "Let's build a layer first."

"Come on, it's good. Maybe you can find a wife soon."

Zhao Erniu scratched his head and said

"Brother Yu, I have found one. The matchmaker found me a partner in Uiqi Village. The other party said that as long as I build a house, I can marry him."

Li Duoyu was stunned and couldn't help but sigh, "You are quite smart, you even know where to find women."

"Hehehe, I learned it all from Brother Yu."

"Don't talk nonsense, I haven't taught you yet."

The villagers here in "Banyao" are particularly grateful to Li Duoyu. In the past, Banyao was the poorest place in the village.

Almost all the men here can't get a woman and can only produce and sell their own goods. In history, there were even cases where two or three brothers shared one woman.

But under the care of Li Duoyu.

In less than two years, everyone here in Banyao has slowly built new houses. Some have developed well and even bought fishing boats.

The person Li Duoyu was most grateful to was Zhang Cuilan, who borrowed money to invest in abalone and almost committed suicide by drinking pesticide.

Seeing Li Duoyu coming halfway back.

Zhang Cuilan was so enthusiastic that Li Duoyu felt a little uncomfortable, so she just grabbed him and wanted to take him home.

"Director Li, my family killed a duck today. Do you want to try it first? By the way, my family has recently raised bamboo rats. You can take a few back to replenish Teacher Zhou. You are so rich, it is time to ask for more. One more.”

"Hahaha, no need."

When Grandma Chen Wenchao saw Li Duoyu coming, she stood up even though she had difficulty walking and said politely, "Duoyu, would you like to come in for some tea?"

Less than three minutes after Li Duoyu reached his waist, he wanted to run away. He thought it would be better to come here less often in the future.

After the summer heat.

Li Duoyu’s breeding project is proceeding in an orderly manner.

The eel pond has been expanded to the tenth port, and the oyster steaks that Chen Wenchao is in charge of have been finished a long time ago. Now when you pull up the oyster cakes, you can see the densely packed small oyster seedlings attached to them, and of course there are also many mussel seedlings.

Li Duoyu took a look and saw that the circled date on the calendar was about to leave for Ludao. After all, he had promised Director Wu that he could not let the school go.

The third uncle and the uncle originally planned to go fishing for hairtail in the Zhoushan Islands, but learned that Li Duoyu was going to Ludao.

He immediately changed his itinerary and went to the sea area connecting Dongshan Island and Shantou to catch barrel squid.

After ten hours of sailing, the three fishing boats arrived at an island not too far from Dandan Island.

On the tugboat, Li Zhengfa, smoking a cigarette, could not help but sigh, "This small fishing village has changed so much. How come there are so many high-rise buildings in just a few years?"

"Holy shit, what kind of white ship is that? Why is it so big? It looks like it's over a hundred meters tall."

Li Duoyu looked at the giant cruise ship not far away. If he guessed correctly, that ship should be the "Gulangyu Island".

In the past, Li Duoyu and Agui came here in a sailboat. They had seen that boat a long time ago, and that boat was the beginning of their dreams.

Because the ship was bound for Hong Kong Island, the goal of the two of them was to get on the ship first, then go to Hong Kong Island, and finally reach the island country.

Li Duoyu sighed and looked at the island in front of him. When he came here four years ago, Ludao was really a small fishing village.

It is incomparable to those stone lions and Jinjiang. At most, it is a place with more Western buildings.

But since it became a special economic zone, it has taken off immediately. In the past, only a small piece of land was a special economic zone, but this year, the entire island has become a special economic zone, and many foreign businessmen have invested here.

Although there are still many rural areas and small fishing villages in Ludao now, it is prosperous and there are construction sites everywhere.

Li Duoyu remembered that he accompanied Zhou Xiaoying to Ludao Island in his previous life. It was completely different from the small fishing village in front of him, with tall buildings everywhere.

However, what impressed Li Duoyu the most was the housing prices on Ludao. He had been working illegally in the island country for nearly 20 years and could not even afford half a house on Ludao.

In this life,

It would feel a bit unreasonable not to buy a few yards here.
