Chapter 233 Return to the Island

After arriving at the village committee.

Li Duoyu found that Zhou Xiaoying was also here. She brought a basket with a lot of things in it.

There were local fish noodles, eggs, dried fish, dried oysters, and dried kelp.

"Don't take so many things, we can buy them ourselves."

Mrs. Ou kept refusing:

"Thank you so much, you are so polite, we are a little embarrassed, and we dare not bother you in the future."

Zhou Xiaoying forced the basket to be placed on the stove: "These are all made at home, not much money, what is there to be embarrassed about."

After seeing Zhou Xiaoying, Ou Wusheng was slightly stunned, and then said: "This should be my sister-in-law."

Li Duoyu nodded.

"Sure enough, the temperament of a teacher is good." Ou Wusheng looked at Li Duoyu: "How did you get her back then?"

"It was all due to shamelessness." Li Duoyu laughed.

"Hahaha."

Ou Wusheng gave a thumbs up: "You are really amazing. You are not only the village chief at such a young age, but also have such a charming wife. In our Dazhu Village, many people would be jealous."

The two women also noticed that Li Duoyu and his friends had returned. Mrs. Ou hurriedly said: "Duoyu, ask your sister-in-law to take the things back. We can buy whatever we want."

Li Duoyu smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, don't be so polite to us. There is nothing good at the seaside, but there are a lot of seafood."

"How can I be embarrassed."

The next second, Mrs. Ou noticed the bucket of seafood they were carrying.

"Did you catch all these?"

Ou Wusheng nodded: "Isn't it amazing? Otherwise, let's just become fishermen in the future. Maybe we can earn more than in our Dazhu Village."

Ou's wife rolled her eyes at him: "You didn't buy it at the dock and deliberately cheat me."

"How is it possible? These are all caught by Duoyu with me at the beach."

Zhou Haiying glanced at the bucket of seafood and frowned slightly. Although she is now mainly responsible for teaching, when she was a child, she followed her mother to the beach to catch small seas.

She knew very well what seafood could be caught on Dandan Island. It was absolutely impossible to catch such a big snail, as well as orchid crabs and red flower crabs.

If these seafood were not bought by them, then they must have gone to other places to catch seafood.

It happened to be a high tide today.

He was very familiar with Duoyu. In the past, if he caught so many seafood, he would definitely ask to steam them and boil them. Maybe he even bought beer.

But this time, he seemed absent-minded. Zhou Xiaoying came to Li Duoyu and whispered, "Nothing happened today."

"Nothing serious."

Li Duoyu pondered for a while and said to Zhou Xiaoying, "Wait a minute, tell Brother Ou and Sister Ou how to cook these seafood. I have something to do."

Zhou Xiaoying nodded, "Then you go and do your work first. I'll take care of these seafood."

"I'm leaving first."

Sister Ou was a little puzzled, "You're leaving so soon. You caught so many seafood. Don't you want to have a meal together?"

"I'll go with you." Ou Wusheng said.

The two men kept it a secret and didn't tell the women at home about what happened in Dongjia Reef.

Li Duoyu shook his head, "Your clothes are also quite wet. Hurry up and change your clothes. Boil some hot water to warm your body. Be careful not to catch a cold."

After leaving the village committee.

Li Duoyu trotted to the health station.

Defa was using hydrogen peroxide to disinfect Chen Wenchao's calf wound.

When the hydrogen peroxide was poured, the wound made a hissing sound, and Chen Wenchao's face turned pale with pain.

Because the wound was quite large.

After cleaning Chen Wenchao's wound and foreign objects, Defa took out a curved needle with thread.

After seeing this thing.

Chen Wenchao's forehead was full of cold sweat: "Brother Fa, can you just apply some medicine? Let's not sew it."

"Your wound is too big, it has to be sutured, just sew two stitches."

"That's okay."

But the next second, Chen Wenchao felt something was wrong, grinning and cursing: "You lied to me, you have four or five stitches, how can it be two stitches."

Zhao Dahai, who was also injured on the side, saw this scene, and his teeth began to tremble: "Will I have to sew it later?"

Defa nodded.

"Your condition is more serious. In addition to stitches, you will also need to hang a bottle to reduce inflammation."

"Can you not stitch?"

Zhang Defa said with a look of disdain: "You two are almost fifty years old together. What are you afraid of stitches?"

Seeing this scene, Li Duoyu couldn't help but smile. It's amazing to say that most men are still afraid of needles no matter how old they are.

Since the health station is near the dock, people come and go, and the news that Chen Wenchao and Zhao Dahai stitched here soon spread to both families.

Since they didn't have a good relationship before, many villagers thought they had a fight.

The news didn't spread for a while.

Zhao Dahai's parents, Liu Xiaolan and Chen Wenchao's grandmother also rushed to the health station.

When Chen Wenchao's grandmother saw that his wound was so big, her eyes were red instantly. Liu Xiaolan also looked at the Zhao brothers hatefully: "You two won't bully Wenchao again, right?"

"No." Zhao Dahai hurriedly explained, and hesitantly told everyone what happened this morning.

After listening,

Zhao Dahai's father, Zhao Fugui, had a very dark complexion and pulled out a small wooden stick for burning fire at the door.

He wanted to hit Zhao Dahai.

Seeing his pitiful appearance.

He turned around and whipped Zhao Erniu.

"Day by day, why can't I save people some peace of mind?"

"The village director just got you out not long ago, and now you go to such a dangerous place and harm Xiaochao like this."

But what everyone didn't expect was that Zhao Erniu was very stubborn and did not hide at all. Instead, he received a few sticks from his father.

"My brother and I just want to make more money. Who knew this trend would come so fast."

"How dare you talk back."

"Did you say Duoyu told you two brothers to come up quickly? You insist on greedy for that seafood. With you like this, it's no use even a few lives for you, and you still have to trouble others."

Zhao Fugui was so angry that his eyes were red. The last time his two brothers were imprisoned, the family had spent all their savings in order to prevent them from being bullied.

I thought that after the two brothers came out, they would be more responsible and no longer so impulsive and reckless. However, less than two months later, such a big incident would happen again.

If Li Duoyu hadn't also happened to go to Dongjia Reef, his two sons would probably be gone, which really wouldn't make people worry.

Zhao Dahai's eyes were also red: "Dad, we know we were wrong, so please stop beating two cows."

Zhao Fugui gritted his teeth and said, "You think I won't hit you. When you recover from your injury, I will punish you."

The villagers who were watching also tried to persuade him.

"Old Zhao, that's about it. No one could have imagined the tide today."

"Yeah, as long as everything is fine."

"Compared to others like Ali, Dahai and Erniu, they are already much better."

Seeing so many people trying to persuade her, Mother Zhao quickly stopped her and held the small wooden stick in Zhao Fugui's hand. "The kid knows it's wrong, so stop fighting. Speaking of which, it's our inability to blame, otherwise Dahai and Erniu wouldn't have to fight so hard."

After hearing this.

Zhao Fugui fell silent, put down the wooden stick in his hand, and completely ignored Zhao Dahai who was sterilizing stitches, but instead greeted Chen Wenchao with greetings.

"Xiaochao, I'm really sorry. You are getting married soon and I have to make you need so many stitches."

After Chen Wenchao had the stitches, he still limped when he walked, but fortunately it was only a flesh injury, not a muscle or bone injury.

Li Duoyu asked him to rest for a while.

Good to prepare for the upcoming wedding.

He drove a sampan and went to the fishing raft first to check the situation. If the tide was like this, the fishing raft would be easily unstuck.

In order to cope with this unexpected situation, Li Duoyu deliberately lengthened the line so that even if the tide rose, the pile would not be pulled out because the line was too short.

When Li Duoyu came to the fishing raft.

Erbaiwu kept wagging its tail at him, and it discovered that during this period, Erbaifu had more starfish toys.

Judging from the situation, it should be its playmate who has returned to this sea area.

Li Duoyu touched the dog's head.

Then I checked the condition of the fishing raft. Overall, it was pretty good. The tide pulled out two wooden piles.

Fishing rafts, which are the easiest to pull out, are fine, and oyster farming rafts and kelp farming rafts are generally no problem.

Out of an abundance of caution.

Li Duoyu checked it again. It seemed that the kelp field and oyster field had withstood the test this time.

However, Li Duoyu thought of a place, so he sailed to the sea near Bad Shui Tan, and he saw a figure who was no longer willing to clean up the kelp field.

Li Duoyu came closer.

"Jinshan, is the kelp field okay?"

"No problem, I just pulled out a few piles, and I can just drive them in with stones. Fortunately, Brother Yu asked me to drive the piles again last time, otherwise it would probably be over this time."

"By the way, how is your uncle?"

Wang Jinshan smiled bitterly and said, "I'm really in the hospital now."

Li Duoyu also guessed that Wang Dapao's stroke didn't look like he was faking it.

"Didn't any of your cousins-in-law visit your uncle?"

Wang Jinshan sighed: "When you think about it, you really have to blame me. When I was preparing to start piling again, my cousins ​​and cousins-in-law said that when I invested in the kelp field, my uncle also invested, and they also wanted a share."

"As a result, my uncle said that they were already married and refused to give it to them, so they quarreled and ended up being so angry that he was hospitalized."

Li Duoyu smiled awkwardly.

We are not a family, and we do not enter the same family. When Wang Jinshan first started, no one came out to help. Now that it is done, many people have jumped out.

This is just like many demolished households in previous lives. Before demolition, no one cared about them. Once demolished, all their children came back.

Li Duoyu patted Wang Jinshan on the shoulder: "Work hard. You did this on your own initiative. There is no need to share it with others."

Wang Jinshan nodded.

"I see."

When Li Duoyu returned to the dock, he found that a tin boat with "Lianjiang Fisheries Research Institute" printed on it had just docked at the dock.

After meeting Li Duoyu.

Chen Dongqing walked towards him eagerly: "Is there nothing going on on the island? With such a big tide, have the kelp farming rafts been unplugged?"

Li Duoyu shook his head: "No, I just went to check."

"That's good, we're going to plant kelp seedlings soon, and there's such a big tide that scares me to death."

Li Duoyu smiled, feeling that his uncle had already suffered from PTSD from being pulled out by the kelp.

"By the way, when will the seedlings be released in the institute?"

"The release will start the day after tomorrow. However, there are so many farmers bringing kelp seedlings to the territorial waters this time. The institute is not responsible for transporting kelp seedlings. It is estimated that the village will have to send its own boat to collect the seedlings."

"Okay, no problem."

"By the way, there is one more thing I want to tell you." Chen Dongqing then pulled Li Duoyu to a corner and whispered: "The institute has decided not to provide free seedlings to farmers next year."

"So fast?"

Li Duoyu frowned slightly. If he remembered correctly, the institute had provided it for free for several years in order to develop coastal aquaculture.

Chen Dongqing was also very helpless: "It is said that a nursery company has been established above. From now on, our research institute will be responsible for cultivating new varieties and raising seedlings. I heard that it will be handed over to this newly established company."

"At the beginning, I wanted to recommend you to join this nursery company, but when I put the plan forward, the leaders above rejected it."

Chen Dongqing didn't know who the boss of the nursery company was, but Li Duoyu knew it very well. He frowned and asked, "Is the person in charge of this new company named Tian?"

Chen Dongqing asked in confusion: "How did you know?"

Li Duoyu made up a reason casually: "I also heard from some bosses in Rongcheng that this nursery company is run by a second generation. Anyway, you should not ask or interfere with the nursery company's affairs."

Chen Dongqing suddenly realized: "No wonder after I raised this matter, the leader scolded me for being ignorant and asked me to participate less. This is the problem."

Li Duoyu smiled helplessly.

It is estimated that the success of his kelp cultivation attracted the attention of the above, which led others to see this business opportunity.

Li Duoyu then said: "We are all on the island, why don't you go up and have a seat."

Chen Dongqing shook his head: "Forget it, next time, I will give you all these kelp seedlings now, otherwise, who knows, something will happen."

"I'm going back first."

"The day after tomorrow, you bring one or two large ships to the nursery base, and I will send you kelp seedlings first."

"sure."

As soon as Chen Dongqing left, another unexpected guest came to Dandan Island. This guest wore glasses and carried four large customized signs on his body.

After meeting Dai Laoer.

Li Duoyu was a little confused. He really didn't expect that Dai Laoer would personally deliver the sign to the island for him.

"Uncle Dai, I'll just go and get it. Why did you deliver it in person?"

"I just wanted to go back to the island, so I sent it to you."

"Do you want to go back to the island?"

Li Duoyu was very surprised. In his impression, Dai Laoer never returned to Dandan Island until his death. Why did he come here today?

"I just came back to see my old friends." Dai Jianguo shook his head, looked at Dandan Island in front of him, and then sighed with emotion: "It still hasn't changed."

Li Duoyu grinned and said:

"The house hasn't changed much, but the people have all changed. Why don't you live on the island for a while and get a good feel for it?"

"snort."

Dai Jianguo snorted coldly, and then handed him the four signs in his hand.

"You kid, you know that I don't do carpentry work for people on Dandan Island, and you came to me on purpose, didn't you?"

"Mainly I miss you a little."

Dai Jianguo said in disgust: "Nonsense, if you really miss me, when you were selling smuggled goods in the town, you wouldn't have come to talk to me."

"At that time, I was young and ignorant."

When Li Duoyu and Dai Jianguo were chatting.

Some young fishermen may not know Dai Laoer.

But some elderly people in the village felt a little uncomfortable after seeing Dai Laoer, with guilt written all over their faces.
