1983 Small Island, Starting From a Large Farmer

213. Chapter 213 I Can’t Accept It

Seeing that Li Duoyu's business was booming, he didn't even sell any of his onion pancakes.

Zhang Jian felt very uncomfortable.

Seeing everyone praising his oysters, he couldn't help but say: "Duoyu, give me one to try too."

"Okay, five cents."

"We are so familiar, yet we still need money."

"It doesn't matter if you don't need any money. I'll give you three scallion pancakes in exchange."

"My three scallion pancakes cost six cents, which is more expensive than your one oyster, okay?"

"That's because I have a special offer today. After a while, maybe five of your scallion pancakes can be exchanged for one of my oysters."

"You're going to dig it to death." Zhang Jian gave Li Duoyu three scallion pancakes in exchange for an oyster. Compared to giving money, it was of course more cost-effective to give the scallion pancakes.

After all, the cost of three scallion pancakes is only three cents. If he gives cash, he will still lose two cents.

After taking the oysters, Zhang Jian took a small bite and was stunned. His brows were furrowed. Now he finally understood why the elder sister wanted to buy two kilograms at a time.

"It smells really good."

The taste of the oysters is really good, tender and plump. When you bite into it, the oysters will explode instantly. Unlike the oysters you have eaten before, they have no earthy smell.

Zhang Jian asked while eating: "Duoyu, where did your oysters come from? Why do they taste different from other people's oysters?"

"I raised this one."

"Stop bragging." Zhang Jian frowned and said, "You said it would take three years to grow these oysters, but you were still selling them last year."

“Can’t I keep the oysters alive while shipping the goods?”

When Li Duoyu said this, Zhang Jian suddenly felt that it made sense. Among the people who took the goods, many of them were fishing and taking goods at the same time.

But something just doesn't feel right. He plays with goods all day long, does he look like someone who knows how to keep oysters?

And what happened next made him stunned.

An acquaintance he knew, Tang Ping, greeted Li Duoyu enthusiastically. "I heard a familiar voice just now, but I didn't expect it to be the village director."

Li Duoyu? Village director?

Zhang Jian looked confused.

After Li Duoyu saw the visitor, he also said hello: "Tang Ping, I haven't seen you on the island for a long time recently."

Tang Ping said with emotion: "My brother-in-law opened a seafood restaurant here and asked me to come and help. I had agreed last time that I would go fishing with you in the open sea, but I couldn't run away, so I gave up my fishing seat to Jinsha." of."

"I heard from people in the village that you made a lot of money fishing in the open sea."

Li Duoyu smiled and replied: "Not much, just a little profit."

"I've earned almost three hundred, which is not much. I'm almost jealous. I've worked hard to raise clams for a year, and I can only earn one or two thousand a year at most. When I return to the island, I will definitely go fishing with you. Choose the 30 yuan package.”

"sure."

Li Qingguang on the side said: "Brother Tang, if you want to go fishing, you'd better sign up with me, Brother Guang, first. There are too many people going fishing in the open sea recently, and you might even have to queue up."

"Business is so good."

Li Qingguang nodded and said: "Because Shitou and Jinsha caught a lot of red fish the day before yesterday and made a lot of money. Now they are unwilling to give up their fishing spots to others. The Zhao brothers and Ergou also want to catch them."

"These two bastards, village director, you have to keep a bowl of water in check. You can't let these two people occupy the fishing position all the time."

Li Duoyu smiled and didn't make it clear that it didn't matter who came to fish. Anyway, he was only responsible for collecting money.

The more Shitou and Zhang Jinsha make, the more envious everyone becomes and the more they want to go fishing. When the time comes, someone might raise the price.

Then he can naturally increase the fishing position fee.

Hey hey hey.

When Tang Ping saw Li Duoyu selling oysters, he said directly without thinking: "Duoyu, give me a pound of oysters, and I'll pack them back to the store to eat."

"no problem."

Zhang Jian, who sells scallion pancakes, looked confused as he listened. What kind of village director and fishing can make hundreds of yuan a day.

He sells scallion pancakes for a month and earns only fifty or sixty yuan. He can earn more than two hundred yuan a day by fishing for any kind of fish.

"Brother Tang, Duoyu is your village director?"

Tang Ping replied: "Yes, it's the village director of our Xiasha Village. What's the problem?"

"Are you really kidding?"

Tang Ping sighed: "Do we look like the kind of people who like to joke around?"

Zhang Jian couldn't believe it at all, and he didn't want to believe that Li Duoyu, who had an afro and was just playing around all day long, would not only become the village director of Xiasha Village on Dandan Island.

"How did you choose Duoyu?"

"It's just a normal choice, how else can I choose it."

Zhang Jian frowned. The village party secretary was usually appointed internally, but he still had to be a party member. Most of them were former captains.

But the village director is different. The conditions are not so strict, and there are more people running for election. Most of them are people with relatively high prestige in the village.

This time when he was running for village director, his village went crazy and almost started a armed fight. Moreover, their village was not as big as Xiasha Village.

He couldn't figure out how Li Duoyu chose that virtue.

Zhang Jian pulled Tang Ping aside and asked in a low voice: "Brother Tang, could Li Duoyu's father be the former captain of your village? Isn't there anyone who competes with him?"

Tang Ping knew that Zhang Jian didn't believe it. In fact, many people outside also felt that their village director was too young.

"There is competition, but Duoyu is in the election."

"Then why did the people in your village choose such a young man with a criminal record to be the village director?"

Tang Ping frowned and said: "This is a bit complicated to say. If you want to know, read more old newspapers when you have time, or ask him yourself. I'm leaving first."

"Ah, you're leaving so soon. Why don't you buy two green onion pancakes today?"

"I'm buying oysters today, but not scallion pancakes."

"All right."

Zhang Jian sighed helplessly, and then looked at Li Duoyu, who had sold most of his oysters, with complicated eyes, and felt a little complicated for a moment.

three years ago.

He sold scallion pancakes here. At that time, Li Duoyu was still a young boy who was new to selling goods, so he was quite polite to him and often bought his scallion pancakes.

Two years ago.

He is still selling scallion pancakes here. Li Duoyu and Agui have already made a lot of money. They enjoy spicy food every day, and they don't even like his scallion pancakes.

a year ago.

After cracking down on illegal goods, he no longer had to go to the stall every day. He only came during the fair, but his income was reduced by more than half. He hadn't seen Li Duoyu and Agui for a year, and he thought they had been arrested.

Unexpectedly, after seeing him again, his whole person changed and became more glib. The most exaggerated thing is that he suddenly became the village director.

How can he accept this?

Everyone is obviously about the same age.

But the scene that happened next made Zhang Jian completely dumbfounded.

The first and second leaders in the town actually came to the market when they had time, greeted everyone, and waved to them.

Zhang Jian thought he was greeting him, so he waved excitedly and replied: "Secretary Chen, hello Mayor Gao."

However, the next second, he was so embarrassed that he wanted to crawl into the cracks, because Secretary Chen was not greeting him, but Li Duoyu.

After he saw Li Duoyu, he said like an old friend: "Director Li, you are already in town, why don't you come and sit at my place."

Li Duoyu smiled and understood that these were polite words, "I have a plan, but I am here to sell oysters today."

"I heard from Director Li that your oysters were stolen. The damage is very serious. How about I ask the manager of the fair to organize an oyster promotion meeting and a special show for you next time I go to the fair?"

"Secretary Chen, it's not good to have too much. Others will gossip."

"Promoting aquatic product farming is a good thing. Anyone who dares to gossip will be the first to deal with him. Besides, we didn't even thank you properly for the cold storage and ice making plant. If you hadn't fought for our town, maybe this plant would , not necessarily in our town.”

"Secretary Chen, please don't praise me. This matter has been decided long ago. I will only express the needs of our people."

"When did you become so humble?"

Zhang Jian's head was pounding. He looked at Li Duoyu beside him and didn't react for a long time.

Mud horse.

Are we still people of the same level? (End of chapter)
