Chapter 89 Three Cuts of Kelp (Please Read On)

After the two of them exchanged simple greetings.

Chen Atai felt as if there were thorns on the soles of his feet, and he wanted to leave this place as soon as possible. He really regretted it now.

If Li Duoyu were allowed to grow kelp.

The people in their village.

They would probably scold him.

Because when Chen Dongqing promoted kelp, he first went to their Chenjia Village.

And now what he hopes most is that Li Duoyu must not make a lot of money, otherwise he will go all over the island and town to promote that growing kelp is not profitable.

He probably has to find a crack to get in first.

When Chen Atai left Xiasha Village, he happened to meet Wang Dapao, the captain of Dandan Island.

As soon as Wang Dapao saw him, he started to complain to people just like he used to.

He said that growing kelp is too difficult.

He lost a lot of money and would never grow it again.

After complaining, he actually gave him a bottle of sorghum wine and a few packs of cigarettes, and asked his relatives to support him more, which made him confused.

Who would give gifts to others after losing a lot of money? Wang Dapao must have lost a lot of money and become stupid.

Li Duoyu naturally knew that the two brothers, Wang Dapao and Wang Jinjun, had been secretly active these days.

The higher-ups had asked Dandan Island to reform these days.

But Wang Dapao suppressed the information and did not announce it to the people on the island for the time being.

He did this just to catch them by surprise.

When the higher-ups came to urge him, he would tell everyone that they would reform and hold a new election, so that other candidates would not have so much time to canvass for votes.

And the two brothers, because they had established good relationships in advance, could naturally canvass a lot of votes.

But what Li Duoyu felt most distressed about was the kelp ropes and kelp piles of the two brothers.

After the kelp field was destroyed.

The kelp rotted in the sea, and no one tried to rescue it, and even ignored the kelp ropes and kelp piles.

Now the sea area where Wang Dapao raises kelp is simply a forbidden area for fishing boats. There are scattered kelp ropes everywhere. Fishing boats have to be careful when passing by, for fear that the propeller will entangle his ropes.

Li Duoyu really wants to buy these kelp ropes and kelp piles at a low price, but these two brothers would rather let them rot than sell them to him.

However, the purpose of these two brothers raising kelp is not simple. They should want to intercept him so as to establish a relationship with the big leader.

Now, it can't be done.

There is no chance.

Naturally, they will not continue to do such a thankless task.

Speaking of which, the Wang brothers are also anomalies in Dandan Island. They can't fish or breed, but it is these people who have no seaside skills who have exploited Dandan Island for decades.

In the previous life, after the brigade was disbanded, one of the two brothers became the village secretary and the other became the village director, managing the big and small affairs of the island.

The supply and marketing cooperative was apparently taken back by the village office for management, but in fact it was these two brothers who were running it behind the scenes.

Not long after being elected, under the guidance of their third brother, the two of them quickly started to play tricks of selling off the assets of Dandan Island at a low price.

Collective land, forest farms, and aquaculture sea areas were all contracted out to "outsiders" at high prices.

The accounts were so beautiful.

What is the annual output value of Xiasha Village on Dandan Island, how much is the income, and even often celebrate in newspapers.

People outside thought how rich Dandan Island was, but in the end, when the village distributed dividends every year, the villagers did not see any money.

At this time, the two brothers began to complain again, saying that the original contract price was too high, and the contractors lost money every year and could not make money.

Over time.

The Wang brothers went from being village cadres to a one-man show that exploited the people in the village.

In addition to illegally contracting out the village's assets, various subsidies, funds for collecting tidal flats, etc., also fell into the pockets of the two brothers.

The officials were small.

But the amount of corruption was huge.

If their brother in the city hadn't fallen, the villagers probably wouldn't have known that the companies that contracted the village's collective assets were actually owned by them.

In the end, when the two brothers were liquidated, the embezzled funds and illegal gains amounted to more than 100 million yuan.

The fall of the Wang brothers in the previous life seemed to be related to Chen Dongqing. Since he took over, the third son of the Wang family began to have bad luck.

Then, in the struggle that lasted for six or seven years, the brothers were liquidated as typical cases one after another.

In this life, seeing that the two brothers became active again and wanted to continue playing the tricks of the previous life, Li Duoyu would naturally not sit idly by.

They were comfortable.

Next, Li Duoyu was not comfortable.

Facing the various small calculations of the Wang brothers, Li Duoyu also had countermeasures.

However, don't worry now.

It's best to hit the snake once and for all.

The next day.

Li Duoyu packed all the dried kelp, and these dried kelp filled two rooms.

Finally, there was really no place to store it, so he could only pile it up at his relatives' house. This made Li Duoyu feel that it was time to build a warehouse.

Otherwise, he would have more and more in the future.

Storage is definitely a big problem.

On the day when the kelp was dried, Li Duoyu invited all his relatives to come and prepare to treat them to a kelp feast.

To thank them for their help and care for him during this period of time.

To be honest, if these relatives hadn't helped to cut trees and borrow boats at the beginning, it would have been difficult for Li Duoyu to grow kelp so smoothly.

Early in the morning, Li Duoyu went to the butcher shop and bought more than 20 kilograms of leg bones and pork spines, ready to use them to make kelp soup.

He didn't take the whole kelp off to boil, but only selected the top section, which is what kelp farmers often call the "first cut".

Normal kelp can grow to three to four meters long, and the best quality is the section 90 centimeters below the root.

This section of kelp is wide and thick, and is also called the first-class dish.

Whenever the kelp is almost dried, the farmers will take scissors and cut the kelp into grades.

The top first-class dish will be taken away by buyers who specialize in export and foreign trade.

This section of kelp is also the essence of the whole kelp. If you use it to boil soup, it will be very fresh and rich.

However, this section of the best quality kelp has rarely been circulated in the domestic market for a long time, but is specially exported to overseas provinces, Korea and island countries.

There are also many farmers on the island who hate that all the good things they have worked hard to cultivate are exported to Korea and chickens, but when the money is really in front of them, there are really few people who are so upright that they turn a blind eye.

As for the second cut, it is the section of kelp from 90 centimeters below to about two meters.

It is also called second-class vegetable.

This section of kelp is already considered high-end in China, and often unscrupulous vendors sell it as first-class vegetable.

As for the third section, it is the thinnest and most messy part of the kelp. Because it does not look good, this section of kelp is also called hairy vegetable.

It is usually pulled to make kelp shreds.

The common, green and cheap kelp shreds in the market are mostly hairy vegetables, and you can buy a large pound for more than ten yuan.

The remaining ones with lower quality are generally not eaten by people, and most of them will be pulled to make chemical raw materials to extract iodine, alginate, mannitol, etc.
