Chapter 513: The Men of the Li Family Gather Together Again (1/2)

Chapter 513 The men of the Li family gather together again

"Dong dong dong!"

"Clang clang clang!"

The gongs and drums on the big ship were ringing intensively, and everyone's faces were filled with smiles. The eldest brother, Li Shuguang, deliberately left two fireworks behind just for this moment.

After the fireworks exploded in the sky during the day, the stern end of the fishing boat, which was more than 40 meters long, slowly slid along the rails in the dock into the Wujiang River.

After the fishing boat slid to the designated spot, it stopped. Because it was low tide, the fishing boat could not sail immediately.

Only after the tide rises and the fishing boat can maintain balance on the left and right sides when launched into the water can it be driven out of the shipyard port.

Most of the people who went to attend the launching ceremony this time were the future crew members of this fishing boat, including my uncle and uncle.

Many crew members saw this kind of large fishing boat for the first time, and everyone was very excited. They all looked around on the boat.

"Damn it, it's really big."

Originally, the two trawlers, Mr. Li and Mr. Li, combined, were not as long as this fishing boat.

"Our village's dock shouldn't be able to accommodate this ship."

"I definitely won't be able to stop. There's no need to think about it."

After some veteran crew members came to the ship, they paid more attention to major equipment such as engines, generators, and winches.

This new fishing boat has done a good job in terms of safety. There is also a special place for placing the water separation board. There are safety stations on both sides of the fishing boat when the net is lowered. As long as the operation is standardized, there is no fear of people being dragged by the net rope. Gone to the sea.

But young crew members like Chen Liang and Hei Gou value more than a place to sleep.

The cabins of this new ship are all made of camphor wood. Li Zhengfa's tugboat used to have two cabins, but now it has four rooms and more than 30 beds.

The bed is obviously much larger than before, so it is not a problem for two people to lie down and sleep together.

Chen Liang found a good bed and sat up straight away: "This location is good. I will sleep here from now on, Black Dog. How about we just stay in this room, so we don't have to share the same room with Lao Gao?" ”

Chen Liang's father snorted coldly at the side: "You think so, you can't just choose the bed you want. When the time comes, which room everyone sleeps in will be determined by drawing lots."

"Damn it~ We have to draw lots."

"Of course we have to draw lots, otherwise everyone will be like you. Who will sleep in those bad beds? We are here to fish, not on vacation."

Chen Youquan looked at his son and suddenly remembered what happened more than twenty years ago.

At that time, it took the island fishing team two years to build the first tugboat, which was later Li Niantian's tugboat.

At that time, because he performed well in the team, he became a member of the fishing team.

More than 20 years ago, he boarded a ship for the first time in his life, and he was almost the same age as his son now.

After going up, the first thing I wanted to do was choose a comfortable bed, and then I criticized the captain of the fishing team at the time.

Since then, there has been a new rule: where the crew members sleep is determined by drawing lots.

Chen Youquan looked at his son and couldn't help but smile. Damn it, he was indeed his biological son.

Chen Liang chuckled: "Dad, if I live in the same room as Lao Gao again, you can change places with me."

Chen Liang's father thought for a while, and after thinking about the smell of Lao Gao's feet, he frowned and said, "Let's talk about it later. There are four rooms. You may not be assigned to the same room as Lao Gao."

Chen Liang finally heard it, and his father didn't want to change with him at all: "I'm your son."

"I'm still your father."

"If you don't change with me, I will make you the queen."

"You kid is itchy, don't you dare to threaten your father with this?"

While the two were chatting, a middle-aged man had a dark face the whole time and couldn't help but sigh. He really wanted to say something.

His stinky feet have been cured by the young doctor who came to their island last time, and they no longer stink.

Li Duoyu, his uncle, his third uncle, and his cousin gathered in the cab of the fishing vessel.

This cab is quite spacious, even much larger than an ordinary bedroom, and has two large pieces of glass.

Standing in the driver's cab and looking over, the entire deck of the ship and the sea beyond the bow can be seen quite clearly.

After studying at the Ludao Fisheries Technology School for more than a month, the uncle and the third uncle have mastered the skills of sailing a large fishing boat, and they can also use all the mechanical equipment on the boat.

This steel fishing boat overall exceeded Li Duoyu's expectations. The construction time was a bit long, more than a year, but every detail of the fishing boat was handled very well.

Coincidentally, the head of Longwei Shipyard also went to Hong Kong Island with Li Duoyu and the others two months ago.

Li Duoyu once talked to him. Currently, shipyards are not profitable. On the contrary, they lose money every time they build a large ship.

But due to policy reasons, they have to bite the bullet and continue doing it even if they don't make money, because the shipbuilding industry is a very important part of the country's strategic development.

Li Duoyu looked at the steel fishing boat in front of him, which was more than forty meters long and six meters wide, and suddenly felt a little dazed.

Because this big boat is actually the same price as his fishing boat, maybe this is the dividend of the times!

In a few years, it will be impossible to buy such a big fishing boat with less than a few hundred thousand.

Li Duoyu is the largest shareholder of this fishing vessel. He alone owns 30% of the shares of this vessel.

The boss of this ship is his uncle and his third uncle. Li Duoyu has no intention of joining the ship because he is engaged in breeding.

Around three o'clock in the afternoon, as the tide rose, white waves lapped against the dock.

The steel fishing boat also slowly floated. The boss of the boat, Li Niantian, shouted to the crew on the deck: "Don't stand on the same side, stand in the middle."

After almost an hour, the large fishing boat floated completely. The balance of the whole boat was very good and there was no tilt.

At this moment, the whistle of the large fishing boat sounded, and then the fishing boat began to reverse, the propeller turned, and slowly sailed towards the Wujiang River.

When the fishermen along the river saw this big boat, their faces were full of envy. Many of them used awning boats with bamboo poles.

Some fishermen couldn't help but ask: "Does anyone know who owns this big boat?"

A fisherman who often goes to Qingkou Pier glanced at the fishing boat clearing the way in front of him: "If I'm right, it should be from Li Duoyu and his family on Dandan Island."

Speaking of this person, everyone seemed to have opened up their chat boxes, and everyone started gossiping.

"Have you heard that this young man recently built a shrimp farm in Qixing Bay? It is said that the investment in the entire project is at least one million."

“Damn it, it’s true or false, we can’t even make a few hundred yuan, how did we get millions?”

A young fisherman said with a smile: "I heard it from someone at Rongcheng Pier. This Li Duoyu first cooperated with Manager An. But I don't know why, and then he kept working with Chen Yuanyu of Xinyuan Aquatic Products cooperate"

Hearing this, everyone's eyes widened: "Don't say anything half-heartedly, you will be beaten to death. What do you mean by that?" The young fisherman said, "I can't tell you the specifics. That Chen Yuanyou is clearly chasing her. There are so many people, but they just refuse to find a partner

That Li Duoyu obviously didn't have much money before, but after cooperating with this Chen Yuanyu, he is now almost the richest man in our county. If these two people have nothing to do with each other, I won't believe it even to death. "

After what he said, everyone felt that it made sense, but some people still felt that something was wrong: "That's wrong, doesn't that Li Duoyu have children?"

"You don't understand. I've also heard from people that Boss Chen doesn't seem to like young people of the same age, but only likes those older than him."

An old fisherman grinned and said: "So, people of my age also have a chance."

A group of people looked at him with disgust.

"You are already over thirty, and even the widow looks down on you. What a chance."

Just when they were chatting happily, the water waves stirred up by the big fishing boat shook their awning boat.

"Damn, it's so fierce!"

"You can't drive slower."

Although everyone kept cursing, their faces were full of envy. More and more people are buying big boats in recent years.

After more than half an hour of sailing, Minrong Fishing 056 arrived at the waters near Dandan Island. Due to the draft problem of the fishing boat, this steel fishing boat could not dock at the old pier and could only dock at the new pier.

As soon as the boat approached Dandan Island, cousin Li Shuguang set off another box of fireworks. At this time, a lot of villagers came to the new pier to watch. Since the pier is also very close to Chenjia Village, they even came with the villagers from their side. .

Looking at it from a distance, it doesn't feel too big, but when this big fishing boat docked at the new pier, everyone could only look up at the fishing boat.

"Damn, it's so big."

"Taller than two floors above my house."

For fishermen, the bigger the boat, the better. The bigger the boat, the more money they make, the safer it is, and they can go further.

Fisherman Lao Lu looked at the big boat in front of him and couldn't help but said: "Damn it, I've made money, I'll build one too."

At this time, his son-in-law couldn't help but said: "Dad, if we work hard for a few more years, maybe we can get a bigger ship."

Lao Lu snorted: "Not long ago, weren't you still thinking about making money, so you ran away?"

Zhang Yuansheng took a puff of cigarette.

"It feels the same wherever I go. Dandan Island is very good. I plan to stay on the island and develop."

After hearing this, Lao Lu patted him on the shoulder: "It's best if you think so and work hard. If I get old in the future, this money and boat will not belong to you and Yanyan."

Zhang Yuansheng sighed. Half a month ago, he really planned to make money and leave Dandan Island directly, but he thought about it for a long time during this time.

The development of Dandan Island is really good. Even if I go to other places, it may not be better than the current Dandan Island.

It was really uncomfortable to get along with Yanyan at the beginning, but as time went by, it just felt like that, and he didn't know why. Now, he was suddenly looking forward to the birth of his child.

Zhang Yuansheng himself couldn't figure it out. He obviously wanted to escape Dandan Island from the beginning, but after living here for half a year, he didn't want to leave at all. On the contrary, this place was particularly nice, at least more humane than their village.

Zhang Yuansheng looked at Li Duoyu who was chatting and laughing with everyone on the dock from a distance. He suddenly said: "Dad, can you introduce me to Director Li? I want to work in his shrimp farm."

After hearing this, Lao Lu's mouth twitched, and he instantly understood why this kid didn't want to leave.

"talk later."

After the Minrongyu 056 docked, the Li family immediately sent the Mazu Empress on board back to the Tianhou Palace.

Next.

It was the banquet stage. The Li family took out a whole pig and set up more than 20 tables in the village square to entertain the villagers and crew members who helped this time.

And according to the customs of Dandan Island, for major events like buying a boat, a troupe would be invited to perform in the village.

On the night when the fishing boat returned, all the men in the Li family who had the ability to make money gathered together again.

The eldest uncle, the eldest cousin, the second cousin, the third uncle, Li Yaoguo, Zhang Mingsheng.

Even Li Qingguang came. When everyone gathered together last year, he was not yet an adult. This year, his beard has grown long and he doesn’t look as young as before.

Uncle cleared his throat and said, "Duoyu, you have the most shares, why don't you speak tonight."

Li Duoyu shook his head: "Uncle, I'm too busy with the breeding here, so I won't take care of the boat. The specific matters are still decided by uncle and uncle three."

After hearing this, Li Niantian smiled slightly. In fact, he was also waiting for Li Duoyu to say this: "Okay, then I'll speak."

It is best for a fishing boat to have only one person in charge. If there are too many people in charge, it will be difficult to manage.

Uncle Li Niantian said seriously: "This boat costs a total of 150,000 yuan, and we still have a loan of 100,000 yuan.

Today, I am here mainly to tell you something. I have discussed with Zhengfa that the money earned by the fishing boat in the past two years will not be distributed as dividends. The loan will be repaid first. Do you have any objections to this?"

After discussing it, several people with shares replied: "No objection."

Li Duoyu said: "I have no objection either."

Li Qingguang raised his hand and whispered: "I only have half a share. Even if you have an objection, you probably won't pay attention to me."

After hearing this, everyone couldn't help laughing: "Half a share is also a shareholder, can you speak louder?"

Next.

The men of the Li family gathered at a table to drink. After the new boat arrived at the port, the third uncle and the eldest uncle couldn't help but want to go out fishing.

"Duoyu, you know a lot. Where are the fishing seasons in the past two months?"

Seeing the two boat bosses asking him, Li Duoyu also frowned. In the past, if there was a boat going out, he could easily catch fish.

But now it seems a little different, and even old fishermen like Uncle and Third Uncle are in trouble.

This season used to be the season for yellow croaker fishing, but now, let alone fishing, even yellow croaker is nowhere to be seen.

In the past two months, there is no fishing season in the waters near Dandan Island, but in this season, Li Duoyu knows a place where he can catch Spanish mackerel.

"Uncle, Third Uncle, why don't you go to Xiangshan? In these two months, you can just catch Spanish mackerel."

Around the Qingming Festival, it is the spring season for Spanish mackerel. They will migrate to Xiangshan Port to spawn and reproduce, just like when the yellow croaker is ready, they will go to Sharp Sandu'ao to spawn.

In this era, Spanish mackerel has not been specially protected, so it can still be caught.

Li Duoyu remembered that in his previous life, due to excessive fishing, it was forbidden to catch blue-spotted Spanish mackerel in Xiangshan from March to July.

"Okay, I'll listen to you. We'll set off for Xiangshan next week."

Uncle Li Zhengfa, who had drunk a little, asked: "Duoyu, the fishing boat is setting sail for the first time, do you want to come with us?"

Li Duoyu shook his head and smiled:

"I won't go this time. There are still a lot of things to do in the shrimp farm. Let's go together next time."
