Chapter 514 I Want Both (1/2)

The village has been very lively these two days. Not only is there free seafood braised noodles in the square, but you can also watch operas at night. It feels like a festival.

When the loudspeaker in the village announced that the opera tonight would no longer be "Mazu", but "Mu Guiying Takes Command".

The villagers were very excited. This time, not only people from Xiasha Village, but also people from Chenjia Village came.

It was not even dark yet, and the village square was surrounded by people. People had brought chairs to reserve seats long ago.

When Li Duoyu's family arrived there, there were already 40 to 50 rows of people sitting in the square, and there were conservatively 400 to 500 people.

Those in the front were sitting, and those in the middle could only stand and watch. Those who came later could only stand on long benches to watch.

Those who came later could only climb onto the roofs of nearby houses to watch. There were also people who sat on other people's roofs. Now they were caught and are discussing compensation.

Li Duoyu's family came even later, and there was no long bench to stand on. At most, they could only watch the "noise".

When they arrived, the people below were all clapping and shouting: "Good flip, beautiful gun."

There were even many young people blowing hooligan whistles, and the atmosphere was very good.

Little Tutu, who was riding on Li Duoyu's neck and didn't see the show, was a little angry:

"Dad, there are too many people."

"I can't see."

"Can you grow taller?"

Li Duoyu was stunned. Although he was not very tall, he was at least 8 meters tall. Even in Xiasha Village, he could be ranked in the top ten in terms of height.

As for family education, Zhou Xiaoying was still very strict. She educated Tutu on the spot: "I told you when we went out that you should be faster. You have been playing with toys. Now you can't see, that means there is nothing to see, we can only go back."

Little Tutu pouted, but he didn't dare to be angry and act like a spoiled child with Zhou Xiaoying. The reason for this was that his brothers and sisters instilled it in him.

You can mess with anyone in this family, but you can't mess with Teacher Zhou, that is, his mother.

Since there was no electricity, the troupe brought a small diesel generator, which was just enough to illuminate the stage.

It was quite dark in the square, and many people were carrying flashlights. There were so many people and the noise was quite mixed. If you didn't get close to each other, you might not be able to recognize each other even if you were one or two meters away.

But some villagers still noticed Li Duoyu and his family, and hurriedly said, "Director Li, my family occupies two seats in the third row in front, which is just right for you and Teacher Zhou to sit."

Li Duoyu smiled. Their village was a big village with a population of several thousand. For a moment, Li Duoyu couldn't remember who the person who greeted him was.

"No, really no, Teacher Zhou and I just came here to join in the fun."

Seeing Li Duoyu refuse, the man shouted directly to the villagers standing on the chairs in front, "Director Li is here, and this play was invited by their family. Hurry up and make room for him."

After hearing this, Li Duoyu smiled awkwardly, carried Xiao Tutu, and took Teacher Zhou to the direction of Tianhou Temple.

After arriving at Tianhou Temple.

Li Duoyu found that there were quite a few villagers who came to worship tonight, and most of them were acquaintances, including his great uncle, his second uncle, Chen Liang's family, and even his third aunt.

Li Duoyu simply greeted them, then lit three incense sticks and worshipped Mazu.

Most villagers chanted something when they worshipped, praying for peace and fortune, but Li Duoyu usually didn't chant when he worshipped.

Aunt Chen Huiying had said something about him before, but Li Duoyu thought that sincerity was enough, for a god like Mazu.

Even if he didn't pray, she would still protect him.

After worshiping, Li Duoyu took Zhou Xiaoying and Xiao Tutu to the top of the mountain. When Li Duoyu and Zhou Xiaoying were in love, they often came here.

Looking down from here, you can see two villages. Now the island is dotted with stars, and the brightest place is over the Beilanling Pier.

The big boat of the Li family was lit up. From a distance, you could vaguely see many people sorting fishing nets.

Minrongyu 056 will leave the port early tomorrow morning to go to Xiangshan Port in the neighboring province to catch mackerel.

Maybe because the wind is relatively light today, the cheers and whistles from the stage can even reach the top of the mountain.

Looking at the crowded square, Li Duoyu had a faint smile on his face, and he still remembers it very clearly.

In his previous life, around the time he was released, the village would invite opera troupes to watch the show every now and then.

Unlike now, it was not that the fishermen bought a big boat and then invited the opera troupe to perform on the island, but that they invited everyone to watch the show after they successfully smuggled and earned money working outside.

In their previous life, Shangfeng Town was a major smuggling town. At that time, almost all young people aimed to smuggle, and no one thought about making money from breeding and fishing.

At that time, almost everyone was proud of whose family succeeded in smuggling. Successful smuggling was a matter of honor to the family. Not only did they have to worship their ancestors, but they also had to invite the whole village to watch the show.

Now, the phenomenon of smuggling still exists. The people in the neighboring island county especially like to smuggle to overseas provinces, while people in Digu County prefer to go to island countries.

But the wind direction in their Shangfeng Town seems to have changed. Young people no longer aim to smuggle, and many people also want to grow kelp.

A few days ago, many fishermen were envious and excited after seeing the big ship, and many people also wanted to buy a big ship.

After all, for coastal fishermen, the idea of ​​buying a big boat is in their DNA.

Thinking of this, Li Duoyu suddenly recalled the incident when he borrowed a loan shark to sneak into the island country, and suddenly fell silent.

If there were ways to make money in his hometown in his previous life, he could also engage in breeding, and if there were people to help him make money.

Will he still take that path?

Zhou Xiaoying on the side saw Li Duoyu suddenly silent for a long time, thinking that he was too tired during this period, and took little Tutu off his shoulders.

"Lots of fish."

"It's a bit cold at the top of the mountain. I'm afraid little Tutu will catch a cold. Let's go back."

After Li Duoyu woke up from his memories, he looked at Zhou Xiaoying and Xiao Tutu in front of him, feeling full of shame.

So, while there was no one around, he shouted loudly: "Zhou Xiaoying, I like you so much."

After Zhou Xiaoying heard this, she was stunned, her face was burning, and she turned red instantly.

"Damn it, if someone hears it, if you are not ashamed, I will be."

"What are you afraid of? Everyone has gone to the theater and there is no one here at all."

On the way down the mountain.

Li Duoyu put his right hand around Zhou Xiaoying's shoulder and grinned: "Let little Tutu go to bed early tonight."

After hearing this, Zhou Xiaoying understood instantly, frowned and said, "You are so tired, so forget it."

"Who says I'm tired? How can a man say he's tired? Even if I fish all day long, it's not a problem to work hard for five or six hours at night."

Zhou Xiaoying smiled and said: "I happened to drop some duck dew tonight. My mother-in-law bought some deer antler powder a few days ago, so I will pour it in for you to drink tonight, just to replenish it."

After hearing about deer antler powder, Li Duoyu's mouth twitched. He was just being tough and didn't expect Zhou Xiaoying to be serious. Some people have no reaction after eating this food, but after Li Duoyu drank the bowl of velvet antler powder mixed with duck dew soup last time, he felt hot all over his body and tossed and turned all night.

After Li Duoyu and his family left, a figure with a beer in his hand came out from behind the stone. Thinking of what he just said, he couldn't help but get goosebumps all over his body.

He wanted to continue sitting on the stone and finish the remaining beer and the dried fish in his pocket, but what he didn't expect was.

The voices of two young people whispering could be heard next to them.

"I was really scared to death just now. Why did Brother Duoyu come here? They almost discovered him."

A girl with twin tails was also very nervous: "Qingguang, we better not come to a place like this in the future. If we are caught by someone, we will be gossiped about."

"If they dare to gossip, I will marry you immediately to see if they dare to gossip."

"I haven't said yet that I want to marry you."

After hearing this, Li Qingguang was struck by lightning, like an innocent little boy: "Xiaoyan, what do you have to do to marry me?"

The girl smiled slyly and said, "Unless you learn from Director Li and say you love me loudly."

After hearing this, Li Qingguang suddenly became troubled, couldn't help but look around, and then imitated Li Duoyu and shouted again.

As soon as he finished shouting, Chen Xiaoyan kissed Li Qingguang on the face. Li Qingguang hugged him, squeezed him, and stretched his right hand directly from the collar.

Chen Xiaoyan, who was just eighteen years old, was so frightened that she turned pale. In desperation, she bit him on the spot and quickly buttoned up the button.

"Not here."

Li Qingguang scratched his head anxiously: "Then let's change places, or we can't get on my ship."

"That won't work either. My mother said that we have to wait until I am twenty before we can get engaged."

Li Qingguang glared and said:

"Then we have to wait two years."

Chen Xiaoyan said: "It's okay to hold hands."

Chen Jianghe, who was hiding behind a rock and drinking, really wanted to smash the bottle. What would happen tonight?

He was very happy today and wanted to go to the theater with the villagers, but he went a little late and there was not a single seat available.

He is the village party secretary after all.

But no one in the village was willing to give him a seat, which made him depressed, so he had to go to the top of the mountain to drink to drown his sorrows.

I didn't expect the show to be successful, but I came here to watch two good plays. Now I really drank to drown my sorrows and became even more sorrowful. I ate all the dog food.

Not long ago, village committee member Zhang Jinsha told him that if he could avoid going to the top of the mountain, he should go there as little as possible. Now he finally understood what he meant.

"Damn it!"

"The Dog Day's Dandan Island."

The next day, early in the morning.

The stage has already begun to be dismantled in the square, and at Beilanling Pier, there are all villagers and children watching.

Today is the first time that Minrong Fishing 056 went out to sea for fishing. Along with a whistle that resounded throughout the island, there was also a series of firecrackers.

Minrongyu 056 slowly left the new port and headed towards the open sea.

Half an hour later, when the ship's silhouette was no longer visible, everyone evacuated from the new dock.

Li Duoyu did not go back to the village, but picked up some seafood and took Party Secretary Chen Jianghe to the four windmills.

During this time, the project team built a two-story office building on the top of the mountain, which contained a lot of equipment.

When Li Duoyu came to the office building and saw several power personnel who were stationed at Dandan Island, he immediately stuffed the dried seafood in their hands into their hands.

"Director Li, you are so polite. You bring so much seafood every time. We haven't finished eating the dried abalone and sea cucumber you gave us last time."

Li Duoyu grinned and said:

"Dandan Island has nothing to entertain you, only these seafoods, which are very cheap for us."

Chen Jianghe smiled apologetically, but he couldn't help complaining in his heart: "It's cheap for you, but for others, this thing is too expensive."

After receiving the dried seafood, this group of electricity workers invited Li Duoyu and Chen Jianghe into the office building. They were unambiguous and straight to the point:

"The submarine cable has been laid and has now entered the "grid connection" test phase. As long as the test goes well, we will immediately transmit power to your two villages."

Li Duoyu held the engineer's hand: "Gong Zhang, this is what I've been waiting for. Can you ask me how long it will take? The villagers have been urging me during this time."

The electrical engineer surnamed Zhang thought for a while: "We can't give you a specific guarantee, but the leader has said that it will not be later than June at the latest."

Li Duoyu smiled and said, "With your words, I can deal with the people in the village."

During this period, many people did buy TVs, and some of them, who were financially better off, even bought refrigerators and washing machines.

Every once in three days, someone would come to him and ask him when the electricity would be available, which made him a little annoyed.

Although Dandan Island is not very hot in May, you will still sweat profusely when exercising in the room. Last month, Li Duoyu installed the air conditioner. Personally, he also wants to use the air conditioner as soon as possible.

And on the way back.

Chen Jianghe suddenly said seriously: "Director Li, a document has come down from the county in the past two days. There is something that you may need to take the lead in organizing."

Li Duoyu asked curiously: "What's going on?"

Chen Jianghe coughed twice: "Next month, the county leaders are going to award some awards to encourage entrepreneurs.

One is the [First to Get Rich Award], which is a 10,000-yuan household, as long as you make money through legal channels, you can receive this award, and the others are..."

When he said this, Chen Jianghe deliberately let it slip: "The other awards are all related to you. The leader asked me to ask, which of these two awards, [County Wealth Leader] and [County Star Entrepreneur], do you prefer?" Which one do you like?"

After hearing this, Li Duoyu thought for a while and suddenly said: "Party Secretary Chen, can I have both?"

After hearing this, Chen Jianghe was restrained by Li Duoyu for more than ten seconds before he reacted: "Damn it, you can't keep a low profile."

Li Duoyu rolled his eyes and said, "I also want to keep a low profile, but my shrimp farm is so large. If I keep a low profile, someone will definitely say that I'm showing off."

Chen Jianghe frowned. Although he didn't agree with what he said, he felt that what Director Li said was correct.

"Do you really want both?"

Li Duoyu said seriously: "I'm not kidding you. For a business person like me, the more awards, the better." (End of Chapter)
