Chapter 145 Patent Fees
That night, since his uncle Chen Dongqing was not there, Li Duoyu could only ask his father to help.
They tried it last night.
There are simply too many small tubes.
Two people can't do it at all, it takes at least three to move it.
After the second sister-in-law Zhu Xiuhua heard this, she became excited instantly and felt that the opportunity had come.
"Duo Yu, Dad is already tired from helping you look after the oyster fields during the day, so let Dad rest more. As the old saying goes: Father and son cannot be in the same boat. If they are in the same boat."
Zhu Xiuhua hasn't finished speaking yet.
Chen Huiying, who was repairing her shoes, glared at her daughter-in-law angrily and cursed: "What's wrong with your mouth?"
See grandma angry.
Zhu Xiuhua quickly swallowed the words that came to her lips, and then smiled awkwardly: "I didn't mean that, I meant that dad is too tired, why don't you let Yaoguo give it a try."
"The brigade hasn't paid Yaoguo any wages this month. If we don't make some money, our family will have to suffer from the northwest wind."
Before Dandan Island, there was indeed a saying that "father and son cannot be in the same boat", but it was only in the case of "singles", in order to prevent the loss of children and grandchildren.
It's like a previous life.
Families should not take the same plane, take the highway, and try not to be in the same car.
It makes sense.
As for the Li family's prosperity, there is no need to be too taboo, but safety must be paid attention to.
Therefore, when Li Duoyu goes fishing now, he will try his best to bring Chen Wenchao's life-saving talisman with him.
After Zhu Xiuhua finished speaking, he wrenched Li Yaoguo out of the room.
Lao Li and Chen Huiying were also helpless when they saw the second child with a decadent look on his face and without even shaving his beard.
After Wang Jinjun is elected, the second child will indeed be unemployed with a high probability.
After thinking about it for a while, Lao Li.
"Duoyu, otherwise I won't go tonight. You can take Yaoguo and try it out."
Chen Huiying frowned and said, "But the second brother has never fished before. Can he fish this late at night?"
Lao Li said in a deep voice: "You are still doting on him now that he is so old. Even if you don't do it, you have to do it. As the mainstay of the family, how can it be so easy?"
Zhu Xiuhua nodded and said: "My uncle is fine, Yao Guo will definitely be fine."
Chen Huiying remained silent.
Seeing everyone saying this, Li Duoyu had no choice but to agree.
"But we agreed in advance. It's okay to come over and work, but the wages are the same as Xiao Chao's. I will only pay the wages, and I won't share them equally with you."
Li Duoyu nodded in agreement.
Zhu Xiuhua's face was full of smiles: "As long as you have money, you can pay as much as you want, and it will be higher than his accountant's salary."
Waiting for Li Duoyu to set off.
Those who fished for small tubes had been fishing for more than an hour. They were very agile and had two baskets of small tubes.
But Li Duoyu didn't expect that he originally thought that his second brother might be a little worse than his uncle, a college student.
But he really didn't expect it.
The second brother is not seasick during the day, but he gets seasick at night. He also has a little claustrophobia and is afraid of the endless darkness of the sea.
And one stands on the cage.
My forehead couldn't help sweating, my feet couldn't stop shaking, and my face was so pale that I could have acted in a horror movie.
The second brother wanted to give up.
As someone who has been through this, Li Duoyu knows very well that a poor couple will be in trouble if the second brother continues to be unable to make money.
Then the whole family will definitely be in a state of panic.
Not only will it affect father and mother, but it may also affect their family.
Because it really made the second sister-in-law anxious.
This woman's IQ and EQ will really plummet, and anyone who sees her will want to take a bite.
Li Duoyu lit a cigarette for his second brother.
"Smoke a few cigarettes to get over it. If you go back like this, you will probably be beaten up by my second sister-in-law, and my father and mother will probably not save you."
Thinking that Zhu Xiuhua was really angry recently, Li Yaoguo took a long puff of cigarette.
"Fuck it, I'll try again."
Li Yaoguo gritted his teeth and kept chanting "Mazu bless you", and finally persisted.
And after this fishing.
Li Yaoguo finally understood how difficult it was to make a living at sea. He had only been working for a few hours when his whole body became sore.
It can be seen that Li Yaoguo immediately became energetic after seeing so many small supervisors caught in one net. He was an accountant by training.
After a while, the price of each small network tube was calculated.
"This net has at least four pieces."
"This net costs six yuan."
In the early morning of the next day at Qingkou Wharf, the fishmongers who specialized in collecting small tubes were collectively dumbfounded.
Because there were so many small tubes today, almost every boat of fishermen who came to sell small tubes was full.
Li Shuguang's big fishing boat has more than twenty baskets of small tubes, and they don't know how to price it now.
After a group of fishmongers discussed it.
The price was reduced to 10 cents on the spot, because the quantity was too large, and they were worried that they would not be able to sell it if they bought too much, so they lost their money.
After hearing the purchase price, the Zhao brothers, who had only caught one and a half baskets, almost quarreled with the fishmonger.
Zhao Dahai glared and said:
"Yesterday it was only 15 cents. Why is there only 10 cents left today?"
The fishmonger rolled his eyes at them.
"Do you want to sell it? If not, I won't take it."
After hearing this, the two brothers fell silent and chose to sell the small tube.
In the end, the two brothers worked hard all night and only earned twelve yuan.
Each person received only six dollars.
As for those fishermen who use cages, even if the purchase price of small tubes drops sharply, each person will still get at least 40 yuan.
This time, due to the participation of Li Yaoguo, Li Duoyu's efficiency was obviously much slower, and he wasted nearly two hours at the beginning.
When he arrived at the Qingkou Wharf.
His eldest cousin Li Shuguang and his friends had already sold the small tubes. Li Shuguang, who was counting money with the fishmongers at the wharf, smiled.
"Duoyu, why are you so slow today?"
When he saw the pale Li Yaoguo, he understood immediately.
"Of course, even Yaoguo came out to help."
"I'm just a drag." Li Yaoguo sighed.
Li Shuguang said: "Get used to it. Who didn't come here like this at the beginning? It seems that you can find the hole at the beginning."
All the old fishermen who have experienced it couldn't help laughing.
After arriving at the wharf, Li Duoyu still sold the small tubes to Lao Zhang. This time the catch was much less than yesterday.
Only more than 700 kilograms.
According to the purchase price of the day, Li Duoyu only got seven big unity.
This made him sigh.
But what Li Duoyu didn't expect was that Li Shuguang took out 16 big unity cards and stuffed them into Li Duoyu's hand.
"The patent fee everyone gave you."
Li Duoyu was dumbfounded: "I just said it casually, and you really gave it to me."
Li Shuguang said seriously: "Do you think we want to give it to you? My father said that everything must be done according to the rules. Hurry up and take it, otherwise I will always feel that I owe you a favor and feel uncomfortable."
"Take it."
"If we don't take it, we are really a little embarrassed. We also ate your meal yesterday."
Li Duoyu laughed and said, "Then I will really take it."
Second uncle laughed and scolded: "Why are you hesitating? If I hadn't played the guitar for you when you were a child, I would have thought you were a woman."
"Fuck, second uncle, when did you take it? ”
“When you peed in my water tank.”
“Ah, don’t slander me, how could I not remember it.”
“There are so many things you don’t remember, you also stole my eggs and peanuts.”
Another neighbor followed suit:
“If you didn’t tell me, I would have forgotten that the urine tank at the door of our house seemed to have been blown up by Duoyu with firecrackers.”
Seeing that everyone kept exposing, Li Duoyu quickly stopped: “Don’t mention it again because it’s all in the past.”
Seeing that everyone was giving money to Li Duoyu, the Zhao brothers were also very curious. They asked Lao Lu about it and found out that it was a reward for Li Duoyu’s help in getting the fish cage.
After struggling for a while, the Zhao brothers also took out two big unity notes, but they didn’t look for Li Duoyu first.
Instead, they handed a cigarette to Chen Wenchao who was resting on the side.
Seeing that the Zhao brothers handed him a cigarette, Chen Wenchao’s face was very ugly. The relationship between the two sides was really not good.
Zhao Dahai said with an embarrassed look on his face: "Xiao Chao, we brothers did something wrong before, we brothers apologize to you."
Chen Wenchao sighed and took the cigarette. He certainly knew why the Zhao brothers were so humble.
"You can go find Brother Yu yourself."
Then Zhao Dahai found Li Duoyu and handed over two big unity notes.
"Brother Yu, I see everyone is using that net cage to catch small tubes, can you also help me get a net cage."
What happened just now.
Li Duoyu also saw it, and then said: "Sure, but twenty yuan is not enough."
"Twenty bamboos, plus ten yuan, you have to go to the town to buy floats yourself."
After hearing Li Duoyu's agreement.
The two Zhao brothers became excited: "Okay, we brothers will go buy it right away."
