In 1983, a small island started from a large farmer

After the meeting, Li Duoyu arrived at Secretary Chen's office with ease. Although the door was open, he still knocked on the door.

"come in."

After Li Duoyu entered the office, he found that Secretary Chen's office was a bit messy, and the table was full of various documents.

"It's Chinese New Year, and the sanitation aunt has gone back. The office is a bit messy. I'll make some tea for you."

"Secretary Chen is too polite. I'll just drink boiled water."

After a while, Secretary Chen came out with a cup of tea, placed it on the small coffee table next to Li Duoyu, and asked, "By the way, have the public toilets in your village been built?"

"It's already built. Just wait for the cement to dry and it will be ready for use."

Secretary Chen nodded and said: "The efficiency is quite high. I thought it would be delayed until after the new year, but I didn't expect it to be done so soon."

"I would also like to thank Secretary Chen for his strong support. If it weren't for the two master bricklayers you called, I'm afraid it would have been delayed until after the new year."

"By the way, I called you here this time mainly because I have something I want to discuss with you."

Li Duoyu smiled. He always felt that Secretary Chen was very polite today and 100% asked him if he had anything to do.

"Secretary Chen, just say it."

Chen Shulin took a sip of tea, and then found a document "Vigorously Developing Distant Ocean Fisheries" from the table.

He said with some concern:

“A few days ago, I went to the city for a meeting, and it was said that our offshore fishery resources have been somewhat unsatisfactory in recent years.

In recent years, there has not even been a fishing season for large yellow croakers, and there are also a lot less cuttlefish.

It seems that the fishing boats in our town only hang around the offshore and Zhoushan fishing grounds at most, and have never gone further. If this continues, the offshore fishery will have problems sooner or later. "

Li Duoyu had already glanced at the document and naturally knew what Secretary Chen wanted to say.

"Secretary, are you planning to let us fishermen go fishing further afield?"

“Young people’s minds work very quickly and they can figure things out with just a few clicks.”

"But secretary, the fishing boats in our village are all wooden boats. The small waves in the near sea are okay, but the big waves in the far sea are unbearable."

"You can all think of the problems, but how could we not have imagined that if the country wants to vigorously develop the offshore fishing industry, it must upgrade its fishing boats."

Li Duoyu pretended to be shocked and said: "So, are you being given a subsidy?"

Chen Shulin nodded: "If fishermen really want to buy a boat, they can get an interest-free loan."

Li Duoyu's eyes widened. Sure enough, the obedient child had milk to drink.

In this year, a steel fishing boat costs at least 10,000+, and now only fishing companies have it.

Ordinary fishermen can't afford it at all. Even if they spend a whole village's money, they can't afford a steel fishing boat.

But if you can buy it with an interest-free loan, then you can get it by selling the iron.

Li Duoyu looked embarrassed: "Uncle Chen, the iron boat is really too expensive. If it's not a work unit, no fishermen can afford it. Can't we directly subsidize it with tens of thousands of yuan or something?"

Chen Shulin rolled his eyes at him: "Are you really not understanding, or are you pretending not to understand? If you really subsidize so much money, it's our turn for such a good thing."

Li Duoyu smiled awkwardly.

"That's right. If that's the case, then I'll grit my teeth and take out a loan to buy one."

Chen Shulin sighed: "Actually, I also recommended you during the meeting in the city, but the leader said that you are doing too many things now, including raising kelp and eels, so I just want you to concentrate on farming. .”

"what."

When Li Duoyu heard this, his smile disappeared instantly, and he couldn't help but cursed:

"Which leader has so many things to do? More than [-] yuan, just picked up a boat for nothing, and just cut off my financial path."

But Secretary Chen refused to let me get a loan to buy the boat, and asked him to come over to discuss what he meant.

After taking a sip of tea, Chen Shulin saw Li Duoyu's grimace and explained:

"The leaders have their considerations in mind and are not targeting you intentionally. The situation in our town is different. When it was opened before, many people had tasted the benefits of smuggling and thought about getting rich overnight all day long.

Your village has changed a lot. Other villages in the town have developed very slowly in recent years, and they all feel like they are still living in the past.

In addition, smuggling has been revived recently, and as soon as the smuggling incident came out, many fishermen who originally planned to make money down-to-earth became restless and thought about making big money abroad.

The leader feels that it is necessary to set a positive example now so that fishermen can see that they can still make money by staying at home.

For example, your kelp farming has made a good start and has led many fishermen to enter the farming industry. However, there are only a few people engaged in farming now, and there are still relatively many fishermen."

Secretary Chen spoke for more than ten minutes, and Li Duoyu naturally understood what he meant. To put it bluntly, it was the slogan that a certain great man was about to put forward.

Let some people get rich first, drive most areas, and then achieve common prosperity.

In this era of economic development, as long as you work hard, there are still many resources available.

Li Duoyu said seriously: "But no one except me would dare to lend such a large amount of money."

Chen Shulin smiled: "Comrade Li Duoyu, you don't think that in the two years since I came to Shangfeng Town, I have only known you village cadres. Do you remember that all your uncles have tugs? Especially your uncle who used to He’s also the captain of the fishing team.”

Li Duoyu was stunned, and then suddenly realized that Ganqing had called him here this time because he wanted him to be a lobbyist.

Li Duoyu still refused to give up: "Then in the name of my Minlong Food Company, can it be done?"

"You kid, you want to take advantage of everything. Why don't you tell the city leaders in person?"

The corner of Li Duoyu's mouth twitched: "Forget it then. I'll go back and discuss it with them to see if they dare to take out a loan to buy a boat."

"As soon as possible, I heard that this interest-free loan policy will be gone soon."

Li Duoyu was quite depressed, as if he had lost 10,000+.

Li Duoyu felt that he couldn't just take advantage of his uncle and third uncle. He had to sign a joint ship purchase agreement in private no matter what, and he had to hold 30.00% of the shares no matter what.

When he left the town committee compound, Uncle Chen in the duty room stopped him, holding a can of something in his hand.

"Director Li, these are the pickles made by our family. Let me tell you, even Secretary Chen and Mayor Gao are rushing to get the pickles made by my mother-in-law."

Li Duoyu was not polite and accepted it directly: "Uncle Chen, next time I will bring some dry goods from the island for you to try."

"This can be."

In the past few days before the Chinese New Year, the town has been going to the fair every day, and the whole street is full of various street stalls.

Compared with the past, the fair before the Chinese New Year is more festive. Many people sell red lanterns, and some directly write Spring Festival couplets on the street.

Li Duoyu didn't take two steps when he smelled the fragrance of tofu curd and came to a stall selling tofu curd.

The stall was set up temporarily, with two small tables next to it and several small bamboo stools.

"Uncle, how much did this bowl of beans cost you?"

"Five points for sweetness, seven points for saltiness."

Li Duoyu suddenly became troubled. How could these bean curd sellers be so greedy? Why were they selling both sweet and salty products?

"Then take a bowl each of sweet and salty. Give me the salty one first."

"Okay, right now."

After a while, the steaming tofu pudding was placed in front of Li Duoyu. The salty tofu pudding had more side dishes, including fried peanuts, dried shrimps, green onions and coriander, as well as vinegar and sesame oil.

Li Duoyu stirred the tofu brain and ate it.

Not 2 minutes.

Li Duoyu wiped out the tofu pudding. The vendor took his bowl and filled him with another bowl of tofu pudding. Then he took out a plastic bottle and squeezed some sugar water into the bowl.

When Li Duoyu was about to eat, a child next to him who was eating a bowl of tofu curd with his mother asked curiously:

"Mom, why did that uncle eat a bowl of salty food? It was not enough and he had to eat another bowl of sweet food."

The child's mother whispered: "You child, if you have money, you can eat whatever you want. Don't talk too much, you know?"

"understood."

Li Duoyu glanced at the mother and son. In this era, there are more people like them who are reluctant to eat a bowl of tofu curd, but he himself seems to be a little out of touch with the masses.

After eating tofu pudding.

Li Duoyu started shopping and could see from a distance that the Weili seafood shop was doing very well. He even saw Shitou, who was helping there and was responsible for helping kill fish.

It seems that his sisters all married here and opened seafood restaurants here.

Seeing that he was so busy, Li Duoyu did not go over to say hello to him. Instead, he came to the center of the fair, where there were the most people and many fixed stalls.

These fixed stalls are subject to management fees, and stalls can be set up here every day. Most of the stall owners are nearby residents.

The side on the left sells all kinds of food, including pork, goat meat, fruits, and noodles.

On the right are various daily necessities, including cloth, clothes, and shoes.

Li Duoyu came to a stall selling shoes and pointed to a pair of white plastic shoes.

"Boss, how much do these shoes cost?"

A middle-aged woman with a cigarette in her mouth said: "These shoes are a new model released this year. They are very soft and very comfortable to wear. I'll sell them to you cheaper, ten yuan."

"Ten yuan, it's so expensive. You can buy ten pounds of meat. Can't you sell it for four yuan?"

"If I sell it to you for four yuan, I will lose money to death. Go to other stores and ask them if they are willing to sell it to you for four yuan."

Of course Li Duoyu knew that these vendors were colluding and would not try to steal customers. Asking them would be in vain and they would just turn around and leave.

Seeing that Li Duoyu had really left, the vendor became anxious: "I'll sell it to you for five yuan, come on, five yuan really can't go any lower."

Li Duoyu turned around and said:

"It's just four yuan, can I sell it or not?"

The middle-aged woman holding a cigarette struggled for a while and sighed: "It's really hard to make some money from you. Four yuan is just four yuan. Who did you buy it for? Does he know how many inches he wears it?"

"Buy two pairs, one with 22.5 inches and one with 23 inches."

In this era, in addition to food, you can bargain when buying vegetables, seafood, and fruits. It feels a bit wrong not to bargain.

Next.

Li Duoyu bought another pair of Jiefang shoes for his father, and then bought a small music box for Xiao Tutu.

After shopping.

Li Duoyu was carrying a bag and was about to take a bus to Qingkou Pier. But on the way back, he saw an out-of-town agricultural vehicle selling firecrackers and fireworks.

This thing is quite rare in this era.

Li Duoyu couldn't help but stepped forward and asked, "How much do these fireworks cost?"
