1983 Small Island, Starting From a Large Farmer

221. Chapter 221 Give a Peach, Return a Plum

Chapter 221 Give him a peach and repay him with a plum.

"Let's all comment."

"Isn't this too much?"

Zhu Xiuhua's voice became louder and louder, and she kept crying to her neighbors.

Mi Xuedong, the eldest son of Mr. Mi, suddenly said excitedly after hearing the whole story:

"Sister Xiuhua."

"Did you just say that for one hundred and eighty you can contract an acre of oyster fields owned by our village director?"

Zhu Xiuhua was extremely aggrieved.

"Um."

"Xuedong, do you think it's too expensive? One hundred and eighty acres. After all, I'm also his sister-in-law. How can you sell it to me at such a high price?"

Mi Xuedong smiled awkwardly when he heard the price. After looking at Zhu Xiuhua, he couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.

This woman is really a living treasure, she doesn't know how blessed she is when she is in the midst of blessings.

Because of his father.

Mi Xuedong knew very well how much Li Duoyu's oyster field could be sold for per acre. If he could actually contract it for 180, he would definitely make a lot of money, okay?

It's so cheap, so why is it so expensive?

Mi Xuedong saw Li Duoyu, who had just come out to pour water for washing his feet, and stepped forward: "Village director, are you planning to contract out the oyster field?"

"What, what's your problem?"

Mi Xuedong chuckled and said, "That's right. If you plan to contract, I will contract for ten acres. See if it works."

Ten acres?

Seeing that Mi Xuedong, who was as smart as his father and never wanted to suffer losses, contracted ten acres of oyster fields in one breath.

Everyone suddenly realized that this price could definitely make money. Someone seemed to have heard that the compensation price for the oyster thief last time was three hundred per acre.

If it can really be sold for this price, it will be really cheap if it is contracted for 180 yuan.

"I also want to contract five acres."

"There are many fish. My family doesn't have much money. Can I contract one acre?"

Seeing that everyone wanted to contract the oyster field, Zhu Xiuhua gave up on the spot.

"Aren't you stupid?"

"Don't you think it's expensive to contract one acre of oyster fields for one hundred and eighty dollars?"

Mi Xuedong grinned: "Expensive, very expensive."

"Then you still take the contract?"

"Business, there are wins and losses. How can I be as lucky as you? With a relative like Li Duoyu, I can make money while I'm at it."

Zhu Xiuhua felt that Mi Xuedong had something to say, but she just couldn't feel that something was wrong.

Originally, she planned to ask everyone to comment on the situation, and maybe ask the neighbors to comment.

After the parents-in-law felt that they were wronged.

I am willing to contract the oyster field to them at a cheaper price.

Unexpectedly, after everyone heard that my brother-in-law's oyster field could be contracted, they rushed to contract it.

Zhu Xiuhua really couldn't understand.

Isn't one hundred and eighty expensive?

But obviously half a year ago, it was only a hundred yuan.

Li Duoyu, who was wearing a pair of underpants, really didn't expect that he would be surrounded by neighbors when he poured water for washing his feet.

Seeing that they all want to contract their own oyster fields.

Li Duoyu thought for a moment.

To be honest, he has also felt recently that there are too many things being farmed, which makes him very busy every day, and he rarely has time to spend with his family.

Seeing that Mi Xuedong and the others wanted to contract the oyster field, Li Duoyu really planned to contract it out directly like the fishing business.

"Okay, if you really plan to take over the contract, why don't I take the loss and give you one hundred and fifty for the first-age seedlings and two hundred and three for the second-age seedlings?"

After hearing this price.

Everyone present was dumbfounded: "Isn't it one hundred and eighty?"

Li Duoyu smiled and said, "That's our own price. I'll give it to my second brother. It can't be that expensive."

"Oh, I thought I got a bargain."

"can it be cheaper."

"No, my oysters can be sold for three hundred yuan per acre. I'll give you two hundred and three, which is pretty good."

Zhu Xiuhua, who heard this on the side, had a look of embarrassment on his face. After hearing that an acre of oyster fields could be sold for 300 yuan.

Zhu Xiuhua said shamelessly:

"Duoyu, it was my sister-in-law's mistake just now. Let's do this. I'll apologize to you. Can you give me ten acres of oyster fields?"

"No." Li Duoyu refused on the spot.

"Why not." Zhu Xiuhua looked confused.

Li Duoyu sighed:

"Second sister-in-law, if you make such a fuss, the whole village will know about it now. If I give it to you for one hundred and eighty yuan, Shuguang and Third Uncle will also ask me for it. When the time comes, it will be hard for me to refuse. ah."

"Can they be the same as us? How about we become closer?"

"I think they're pretty much the same."

The second sister-in-law said anxiously: "How much do you have to pay now before you are willing to contract it to me?"

"Same as everyone else, two hundred and three."

Zhu Xiuhua said angrily: "Li Duoyu, do you still recognize me as your sister-in-law? How could you do this?"

At this time, a gust of cold wind blew by, and Li Duoyu, who was still wearing a pair of underpants, suddenly started shivering and hurriedly said to everyone:

"I won't be in a hurry to contract the oysters for now. Let's go back first."

After saying that, Li Duoyu closed the door.

In the room, Zhou Xiaoying, who was knitting a sweater, asked: "Is it too much for you to treat your second sister-in-law like this? If you really can't do it, you might as well contract a few acres to her."

"Do you know why the second sister-in-law wanted to contract ten acres in one go?"

Zhou Xiaoying shook her head.

"Believe me, the second sister-in-law definitely has no intention of raising it. She just wants to make a profit. After getting the oyster field, she will definitely find a way to subcontract it to others."

Zhou Xiaoying frowned and said:

"You are not the worm in her stomach, how do you know?"

Li Duoyu said with a smile: "Don't I know who the second sister-in-law is?"

Zhou Xiaoying looked at the smug Li Duoyu and asked: "It seems that you know the second sister-in-law better than me."

Li Duoyu shook his head hurriedly.

"How is it possible? We have to get to know each other in depth, which is completely different from the second sister-in-law."

Zhou Xiaoying frowned, always feeling that Li Duoyu's words were a bit strange. After thinking it through, her face instantly turned red.

"Where did you learn so many nonsense words?"

"Xiaoying, have you had milk blockage these two days?"

"No."

Li Duoyu said seriously: "You have to be careful. Some blockages need to be discovered in advance to prevent them. Otherwise, if they really get blocked, it will be too late."

Zhou Xiaoying, who was knitting a sweater, was a little speechless. Naturally, she knew what Li Duoyu wanted to do: "My sweater is almost done. Can you wait until I finish knitting?"

"How long will it take?"

Zhou Xiaoying thought seriously: "It will probably take more than 2,000 stitches."

"That's too long. I'd better be faster. I don't need so many needles from you."

Zhou Xiaoying had no choice but to do it.

Not long after, the two of them lay on the bed with sweat all over their bodies.

Li Duoyu told Zhou Xiaoying about Brother Ou, including the child's desire to recognize a godfather and the fact that he would live on the island for a while.

Zhou Xiaoying didn't resist much.

"You can make your own decision on this matter. There's no need to ask me. However, you'd better ask A-niang about this matter."

"Mom, she should not be asleep yet."

"Don't worry. She must not be asleep after being tossed around by my second sister-in-law."

"Then I'll go find her."

"Why are you in such a hurry? Ask her tomorrow."

"I'm afraid that if I ask tomorrow, A-niang will ask Mazu, and maybe even play for a cup."

Zhou Xiaoying smiled and said, "It's possible."

After Li Duoyu knocked on his parents' door, he told them about Brother Ou again.

Chen Huiying didn't refuse, but there was a condition, that is, Miaomiao, the child of Brother Ou's family, could not go to their house to play with Xiao Tutu if he was sick and not recovered.

These days, the old people in the village call the disease of long-term coughing tuberculosis, which is still quite taboo.

Li Duoyu also felt that A-niang's worry was reasonable.

After discussing it.

Li Duoyu asked Xiaoying to write a letter that night and put it in the mailbox at the dock overnight.

He didn't have to take this matter so seriously, but Brother Ou was the first person who showed him kindness after he came to this world.

Give a peach, and you will get a plum in return.

Every era has its good side and its bad side, but people as enthusiastic as Brother Ou always make people feel comfortable.
