Chapter 534 Cutting Shrimp Eyes (1/2)

Li Duoyu sat with them and drank two cups of tea. Only then did he know that it was Manager An who thought that the crab sauce made by Jian Mei tasted good and planned to cooperate with her to form a small brand.

Li Duoyu looked at Fan Shuyao's mother and felt that she was really business-minded.

But the taste of crab sauce is very addictive. Unless you have been exposed to it since childhood, it is difficult to like this taste.

It can be said that crab sauce is a very niche product. Even if it is successful, it is unlikely to become rich, but it is definitely possible to be well-off.

But when Manager An expressed his intention to cooperate, what everyone did not expect was that Jian Mei actually hesitated.

"I have three children and not enough manpower. I am afraid that I can't do it. If it is a small amount, it is okay, but if it is a large amount, I am afraid I don't have the ability to do it."

This was said quite tactfully, but everyone present could hear that she should have refused this cooperation.

"Ah~"

Xiao Lin was quite surprised. He didn't know how many people in Rongcheng wanted to cooperate with Manager An, but they didn't expect that they took the initiative to find someone, but were rejected.

Although Li Duoyu was a little surprised, he seemed to understand her concerns. After all, their family's life had just improved, and they probably didn't want to put their family in danger.

If it were someone else, Li Duoyu would probably invest, or even persuade the other party to do a good job.

But Li Duoyu didn't plan to help her too much. There is an old saying:

"There are many troubles in front of a widow's door."

It's better to avoid karma.

Even though he has been reborn for so many years, Li Duoyu still feels a sense of indebtedness to Zhou Xiaoying.

The more successful Li Duoyu is, the more he can feel how wronged and strong Zhou Xiaoying was in his previous life.

Such an excellent woman gave up her own upward path for him.

When Li Duoyu was still living outside in a daze, she helped you guard this home alone, so that you would have a shelter when you return.

Just now, Li Duoyu also noticed that Xiaolin's eyes were not pure, but he didn't want to get involved in other people's affairs.

After drinking a few cups of tea, Li Duoyu found a random excuse and left the dry goods store.

Manager An also followed him out, and the two walked together for a short distance along the river.

An Yuliang sighed: "The wind in Rongcheng is still comfortable."

Li Duoyu suddenly said: "What did Manager An think about the matter I told you last year?"

An Yuliang smiled and said: "It's hard to consider. If I want to cooperate with you, I will be a little sorry to Brother Chen Jiao."

After An Yuliang finished speaking, he suddenly asked: "Aren't you cooperating well with Yuansu? Why do you have to find me?"

Li Duoyu smiled and said: "It's not a good thing for one company to dominate. I'm afraid that someone is too young to grasp it, which is not conducive to the development of the entire industry."

An Yuliang pondered for a while:

"You said this with great level. It doesn't seem like something you can say at your age. Where did you learn it from?"

"I learned it from the leaders."

An Yuliang sighed: "In fact, I have a good relationship with Yuansu. When I was a child, I hugged her."

Seeing that An Yuliang didn't plan to cooperate, Li Duoyu had to say: "This time when I went to Hong Kong Island, the leader talked to me and said that if I want to do it, I have to be the first."

An Yuliang was stunned. He naturally knew which leader Li Duoyu was talking about.

"No. 1 in the province? That shouldn't be too difficult for Director Li."

Li Duoyu smiled and said, "If we just want to be No. 1 in the province, then I can just work with Chen Yuansu, why do we need to come to you?"

"Huh~"

An Yuliang was a little puzzled, and then pointed upwards: "You want to be so big?"

Li Duoyu nodded: "What, are you interested?"

Manager An frowned, lowered his head and thought seriously for a while.

"I can't give you an answer now. I have to go out for a walk in the second half of the year. If you still have this idea next year, I will have a good talk with you."

"Okay, Manager An, whenever you are tired of playing, we Minlong welcome you at any time."

After Li Duoyu finished speaking, he drove away in the fishing boat. After hearing what An Yuliang said just now, he didn't know whether to sit or stand at this moment, and his heart seemed to be bumping like a deer.

Just at this time, Xiao Lin, who went to buy meat buns, came back and asked, "Director Li, why did you leave? I bought him several meat buns. This one is especially delicious."

Manager An looked at his apprentice with disdain. He was about the same age as Li Duoyu, but why was there such a big difference between them?

"Pack up your things in the next two days. We are ready to leave."

"Master, didn't we just come back? Why don't you stay for two more days?"

Manager An scolded directly, "You are so lazy. What can you achieve? You are not even a hair better than others."

Xiao Lin opened his mouth wide, not understanding why the boss was so crazy.

An Yuliang sighed. During this period of time, he traveled all over the country, which made An Yuliang understand a truth: he actually didn't have much ability.

If he wanted to avoid embarrassment in front of Li Duoyu in the future, he had to do more temporary things.

When the two passed by the dry goods store again, Xiao Lin looked inside the store and couldn't help saying, "Boss, I didn't expect that the boss lady would look so good after she got better."

An Yuliang patted his head on the spot: "She already has three children, and you really like being someone else's father."

The beaten Xiao Lin touched his head, feeling that the boss seemed to be stimulated, but when he looked at the woman squatting on the ground washing crabs, he couldn't help muttering:

"It's like giving birth to three children, and the figure is still intact. It's the real top quality, unlike the Jinhua in our company before. When she was young, she was still pretty, but after giving birth, she couldn't go back to the past."

An Yuliang warned: "Don't mess around with me, find a decent partner and get married quickly, otherwise your parents will come to me crying one day, and I will be the first to cut you."

Li Duoyu did not go back to Dandan Island directly, but came to Qixing Bay and docked the boat at a temporary wooden pier.

There are already a lot of workers here, more than 20, all recruited from Dandan Island.

Some employees live in simple dormitories on the shrimp farm side, and most of them live on the island. For this reason, Li Duoyu arranged a boat to pick them up in the morning and evening.

These employees have signed confidentiality agreements. Before they were officially hired, Li Duoyu had repeatedly emphasized to them the price to be paid for leaking technology and violating the agreement.

After all, if his shrimp farm is established, there will definitely be people from all directions who want to poach people.

This is definitely inevitable.

The only thing he can do is to add more insurance measures for himself.

There are also some core technologies, such as cutting shrimp eyes and training and nurturing, which cannot be taught to them.

After all, there is already a Zhu Xiuhua, and Li Duoyu can't guarantee whether there will be the next one.

When Li Duoyu arrived at the shrimp farm, the first person he saw was Uncle Zhang, who had no money to build a house after his house collapsed in the last typhoon. He is now a worker in charge of cleaning in the factory.

This man used to have a bad temper and was as stubborn as a cow, but now when he saw Li Duoyu, his face was wrinkled with smiles.

"Director Li, you are here."

Li Duoyu smiled and said, "How is it, are you adapting to working here?"

After hearing this, Uncle Zhang's nose suddenly felt a little sour. After this typhoon, Director Li asked the village committee to advance money for him to repair his house and arranged a lucrative job for him.

"Very good, I don't know how to thank you."

Li Duoyu said politely: "We are from the same village, so we should help each other."

Uncle Zhang, who usually doesn't talk much with others, didn't know how to reply at this moment, so he could only say: "Director Li, don't worry, I may not be able to catch fish, but you can be completely assured of cleaning."

"Thank you for your hard work, Uncle Zhang."

When Li Duoyu came to the factory, his uncle and brother-in-law were both there, and he found that both of them looked sad.

After seeing Li Duoyu, Chen Dongqing immediately asked: "When will your equipment arrive?" Li Duoyu frowned and said: "What happened?"

"You can see for yourself."

After speaking, Chen Dongqing pulled out a small basket of large shrimps covered with crushed ice: "So many have died in the past two days, it should be the end of their life cycle."

The uncle continued: "I have separated the males and females, but they are still dying one after another. If this continues, they will not last more than two weeks."

Li Duoyu frowned. The life cycle of Chinese shrimp is about one year. Generally, after completing the reproduction task, they will die one after another, and only a few can live for two or three years.

Li Duoyu checked and found that most of the dead shrimps were female shrimps with roe. Normally, they should have started to lay eggs in April.

But Li Duoyu and Chen Dongqing dragged them to this day, so a large number of deaths were expected.

Li Duoyu said: "The equipment will arrive in the next two days, so let's not wait for the equipment and start directly. I will go buy medical forceps, alcohol stove, and gauze for the filter now."

The uncle said disdainfully: "By the time you buy it, the day lily will have been cold. Mingsheng and I have already prepared everything, and the water in each pool of the factory has been put in place."

Li Duoyu was stunned for a moment, and suddenly, his nose felt a little sour. He stretched out his arms and grinned: "Uncle, come and hug me."

Chen Dongqing looked at him with disgust: "Isn't it disgusting? It cost me a lot of money. Remember to reimburse me."

Li Duoyu asked curiously: "Uncle, you don't even have money to smoke, how can you still have money to buy these things?"

Chen Dongqing was stunned for a moment, and then realized the seriousness of the matter: "Don't mention this to your aunt?"

"Yeah."

Li Duoyu nodded, as if men of this era have a habit, that is, they especially like to hide their private money.

Li Duoyu looked at the dead prawns and felt a little distressed. The largest one there felt like it weighed two taels.

Five shrimps equal one jin.

The quality of the offspring of this sea shrimp is absolutely excellent.

Fortunately, there were enough parent shrimps prepared before, more than 4,000 pairs, and about 300 to 400 shrimps died this time. Generally speaking, the impact was not very big.

The three people put on gloves and rolled up their sleeves to work directly. Li Duoyu did not ask the workers to help with this technical work.

Instead, he asked them to go back first and told his family that he would sleep at the shrimp farm tonight.

Li Duoyu and Chen Dongqing were mainly responsible for cutting the shrimp eyes, and Zhang Mingsheng helped them.

Li Duoyu grabbed a big shrimp, picked up the red-hot medical hemostatic forceps, and then clamped it directly on one side of the shrimp eye.

Then, according to the individual size of the female shrimp, Li Duoyu arranged them in the "wedding room".

After cutting the shrimp eyes, Li Duoyu just shook them with his hands and said, "This one goes to pool number one."

Li Duoyu had already numbered these nursery ponds. The so-called pool number one was for individuals weighing more than two liang.

In the pond, there are already many male shrimps waiting to be "shot", and the female shrimps with their eyes cut off will be in the pond.

That scene is quite exciting.

Pool No. 2 weighs 1.8 to 2.0 taels.

The reason for doing this is to cultivate and select the best quality shrimp seedlings.

In a short while, Li Duoyu cut off the eyes of more than 200 prawns.

Chen Dongqing glanced at him with a frown. He has been practicing secretly these days, but he is still not as fast as Duoyu.

What's wrong with this kid? Seeing his movements and efficiency, he doesn't look like a new learner, but more like a veteran.

What Chen Dongqing admires most is that Li Duoyu is really not much worse than Zhu Xiuhua when doing the work.

"Alas."

Chen Dongqing couldn't help sighing, then rubbed his waist and looked at the prawns in the ponds in front of him.

If it were just the three of them, they probably wouldn't be able to finish this work all night, so they could only work harder, otherwise these prawns might die at any time.

In this way, the three of them worked until late at night and finally managed to deal with more than 2,000 prawns. Two or three hemostatic forceps were burned.

Fortunately, my uncle had anticipated this situation and bought a few more in reserve.

After working for more than six hours, Li Duoyu stood up, turned his waist, and walked towards the No. 1 pool.

Under normal circumstances, if there is a light source, the sea shrimp will stop mating, but because the shrimp eyes have been cut off, the female shrimp is now not picky.

When you see white sperm pods on the abdomen of the female shrimp, you have to fish it out and put it in a special spawning pool.

Some female shrimps with higher efficiency have already started to lay eggs.

The shrimp legs kick quickly, just like a wind and fire wheel, and many small white particles are constantly ejected from it.

And the female shrimp does not spray all at once, it probably sprays three or four times. Like this wild prawn, it can lay up to one million eggs.

Just like many marine creatures, prawns rely entirely on the number of eggs they lay to complete the continuation of the species.

At about dawn, Chen Dongqing was like a dead fish. He didn't care whether the ground was cold or not. He just lay on the ground and fell asleep.

"I'm so hungry."

"No, I need to sleep for a while. I can't hold on any longer."

Li Duoyu also had dark circles under his eyes. His face was not very good because he cut two-thirds of the prawns.

Because he had been holding the hemostatic forceps, his fingers seemed to be fixed and he couldn't stretch them out for a while.

My brother-in-law was not much better. He was the busiest person last night. Not only did he have to catch the prawns for them to cut, but he also had to put the processed prawns into the mating pool.

If there was a VX step counter at this time, it would be possible for my brother-in-law to walk tens of thousands of steps last night.

But the two of them still have a lot of things to do now, and some of the prawns seemed to have completed their mission after spawning, and they went directly into a half-dead state.

Li Duoyu and Zhang Mingsheng still had to catch these shrimps, although the taste might not be so fresh and sweet.

But such big shrimps can be sold for five or six yuan per pound, which is definitely not a problem.

Li Duoyu also felt a little hungry, and was planning to cook a few female shrimps that had just laid eggs.

But unexpectedly, someone came to the shrimp farm early in the morning, and Li Duoyu and Zhang Mingsheng went out to take a look.

Unexpectedly, the people who came were Zhou Xiaoying and Li Shuihua, both of whom were holding a magic basket in their hands.

When Li Shuihua saw them, she said with a little anger: "You must have worked all night again last night."

Li Duoyu grinned and said: "No."

Li Shuihua glared at him: "If not, you can try not to sleep during the day."

What Li Duoyu didn't expect was that Zhou Xiaoying actually brought a towel, toothpaste and toothbrush.

And the things in their magic basket were cooked porridge, eggs, pickles, and even chicken.

"It's so rich."

Sister Shuihua said: "Aniang said that she would take good care of you recently. You all want money but not life."

Li Duoyu smiled.

While her brother-in-law and others were not paying attention, she squeezed towards Zhou Xiaoying and then secretly took a bite.

Zhou Xiaoying was so angry that she stepped on him: "You are sick."

The uncle who smelled the fragrance and wanted to come out to eat saw the scene just now.

The whole person was like a defeated rooster, and really wanted to find a pillar to hit it.

"Why are other people's wives so good, and my wife is like a debt collector." (End of this chapter)
