After Li Duoyu arrived home.

After a brief trimming, he touched the head of Xiao Tutu, rode on the 28 bars, and went in the direction of the tidal flats.

As soon as I got there, there was a tractor full of sand and gravel. Smoke in the direction of the embankment.

Since the bodies of these tractors do not have a dump function, whether they are loading or unloading, they can only rely on manpower, which is also the reason for the inefficiency.

It took seven days for the levee to reach out 150 meters, but the levee was more than two meters wide enough for a tractor to pass.

There were many onlookers near the embankment, and everyone felt that the investment was too big, and this was simply calculated by the meter.

The cost of each meter of the embankment.

It takes at least ten bucks.

Such a big investment made half of the people on Dandan Island quarrel again.

Some farmers who have made money with Li Duoyu also want to follow along, but unfortunately the investment is too large, more than the investment in the eel pond, even if they want to, they don't have the money to follow.

However, there are some people who are still not optimistic about Li Duoyu's embankment breeding, they feel that Li Duoyu is too aggressive, and if they throw so much into it, if they lose money, it is really possible to return to before liberation.

Some people also believe that it was all Li Duoyu who was lucky before, and maybe this time the embankment breeding will overturn.

Li Duoyu's cousin Liu Meifeng planned to borrow money again some time ago, but after seeing Li Duoyu engaged in such a big project, he directly stopped talking about borrowing money.

In August, summer is hot.

The sea breeze blows and it is hot.

The people working at the embankment were all naked, with a soaked towel around their necks, and their upper bodies were tanned.

As soon as the tractor came, the villagers at the end of the embankment climbed directly into the back of the car, first turning the stones with their bare hands and rolling them into the tidal flats.

Then, the sand was shoveled out of the truck, and most of the materials of the entire embankment were still mainly stones.

Otherwise, under the washing of the waves, no amount of sand and soil will be in vain.

Fortunately, the most important thing on Dandan Island is stones, and in order to prevent these stones from moving under force.

Zhang Mingsheng drove large wooden piles on both sides of the embankment every other distance to fix them, but this was not enough, and he did not know where to borrow a large stone mill, which had the same effect as a road roller, which could be used to press the embankment, which could effectively prevent the dam from bursting.

After seeing Li Duoyu, Zhang Mingsheng, who was in charge of the entire embankment project, said with a smile: "Duoyu, when did you come back?" ”

Li Duoyu smiled:

"It didn't take long to arrive."

Zhang Mingsheng said: "What's the matter, this embankment is okay." ”

Li Duoyu stepped on the embankment: "The stakes are even stronger than I imagined." ”

At first, he didn't think it was possible, but he didn't think that the more he did, the more he felt a sense of accomplishment, and even consulted the old people who built the wharf at the beginning, and summed up a lot of experience.

"Boom~~"

At this time, Li Duoyu heard a loud noise, and then all the birds near the tidal flat were frightened and flew up.

"What a sound?"

Zhang Mingsheng said with a smile: "This is the sound of blowing stones, it is too slow to open stones with a stone wedge, so I found a relationship to buy some explosives and came back, and it was faster to use the explosion." ”

Li Duoyu frowned and said, "Is it safe?" ”

Zhang Mingsheng said: "Safety, the person in charge of blasting is Company Commander Zhang, and we all strictly abide by the explosion regulations." ”

In this era, explosives can be bought and sold by the people, and there are quite a lot of related organizations, and they can be bought with a little money, and even Company Commander Zhang of the militia company has a lot of them.

"I'll take a look."

Li Duoyu rode the 28 bars and walked towards the quarry.

When Li Duoyu arrived at the quarry, he found that they had dug a big pit out of the mountain.

Due to the strong sea breeze, when the explosives exploded, the surrounding area was filled with dust from the explosion.

There were more people on this side than on the other side of the embankment, more than twenty.

Chen Wenchao, Company Commander Zhang, and Xiaojun are all here, all of them are gray-faced, and their hair is full of lime.

These people are completely unprotected, and many of them still have cigarettes in their mouths, choking on dust and coughing.

"Brother Yu, you're back."

Chen Wenchao greeted him.

But after Li Duoyu glanced at them, he called Chen Wenchao aside and asked, "Has this quarrying dust always been so big?" ”

Chen Wenchao replied: "There were no ones at the beginning, but after they were replaced with explosives to blow up stones, there were more of them." ”

Li Duoyu frowned and said, "This dust is too big, you buy some masks for everyone to wear." ”

Chen Wenchao said with a smile: "It's okay, many of them smoke, and they can't wear masks at all." ”

In these days, everyone doesn't know how much protection and dust produced by ore is harmful to the lungs.

Li Duoyu said with a serious expression: "You still have to buy a mask, if you don't wear a mask, you can directly change people." ”

The smile on Chen Wenchao's face disappeared instantly, and he became serious on the spot, because Brother Yu rarely said such strong words.

Li Duoyu went on to explain:

"You don't go out of the island very often, and you don't know that many of the workers in the quarries and coal mines outside have died of pneumoconiosis because they have inhaled too much dust

After suffering from this disease, it is not curable, and we can only watch ourselves die slowly, our embankment has to work for a long time, and the dust is so big every day, we must do protection. ”

Chen Wenchao didn't know what that pneumoconiosis was, but he knew that Brother Yu was angry for their good.

"Brother Yu, I'll go to the town to buy masks immediately."

After Chen Wenchao left.

The stone who came to help sat on the side and poured water into it, and said, "Damn, this weather is so hot." ”

Li Duoyu smiled:

"You don't fish, why did you come here to me?"

Shi scratched his head and said, "They all say that I am as thin as a monkey, and I need to work more to be manly." ”

Li Duoyu glanced at Lin Shanshan, who was not far away and helped with the cooking, and said with a smile: "You kid drunkard doesn't mean to drink." ”

The illiterate stone was stunned: "What do you mean? ”

"That is to say, you kid didn't really come to work for me, but had other purposes."

After Li Duoyu finished speaking, he pointed to Shanshan not far away, and shouted, "Shanshan, why don't you come to help." ”

Lin Shanshan walked over.

"Xiaoying is not here, your mother still has to bring Tutu, Xiuhua went to Nanri Town again, and I came over to help cook."

"Thank you for your hard work."

Lin Shanshan smiled and said, "It's just a trivial matter, you and Sister Xiaoying have helped me so much, and I haven't thanked you yet." ”

When Lin Shanshan came over, Shi's face turned red inexplicably, and the whole person turned his back to drink water.

After she left, she dared to turn around.

Li Duoyu shook his head: "You're too cowardly, you don't even dare to look at her with a straight face, how can you chase her." ”

Shi frowned: "Brother Yu, please, really don't talk nonsense, I just want to help you, it has nothing to do with Shanshan." ”

Li Duoyu whispered: "Actually, Shanshan doesn't like the kind that is very strong, but likes the kind that is thin and has a more temperament." ”

The stone widened his eyes and said, "Really? ”

Li Duoyu smiled: "I haven't asked Shanshan, how do I know." ”

At this moment, Shi suddenly felt a little chill in this hot summer, if it weren't for the fact that the person in front of him was Li Duoyu, he really wanted to fight with the other party with a bayonet.

Li Duoyu continued: "By the way, Shi, I want to ask you something, is your grandma's family No. 23 in Team 3." ”

Shi thought for a moment and replied: "That's right, we are the 3rd team, my grandma is the 23rd, and my family is the 24th." ”

"Then your grandma, is it called Ma Xiumei?"

Shi frowned and said, "No, my grandma's name is Xiumei, but the surname is Shi and not Ma." ”

Li Duoyu touched his chin suspiciously, it shouldn't be, the address and the name match, why didn't the surname match.

In view of the fact that there are really many people named Xiumei on the island, Li Duoyu asked in detail: "Have you ever moved your family, have you always lived here?" ”

"I don't know about this, anyway, I was born when I was a child, and it hasn't changed."

At this time, Company Commander Zhang, who came to help on the side, said: "I know this, Shi, your grandma is not surnamed Shi, but surnamed Ma. ”

"I see."

Li Duoyu finally found the main master, and continued to ask at the stone: "By the way, where is your grandfather?" ”

Shi scratched his head: "My grandfather has been gone for a long time, and I was brought up by my grandmother since I was a child." ”

"That's good."

Shi Shi was stunned: "What are you talking about, my grandfather is gone, what's so good about this." ”

"Can you, take me to your grandma, I have something I want to ask her."

Shi frowned, he felt very strange, he didn't know Grandma's surname Ma, how did Brother Yu know.

"Brother Yu, what are you asking for, should it be to check my family's household registration, my ancestors have been three generations, but they are all good citizens, and they have never committed any crimes."

Li Duoyu smiled mysteriously: "Don't worry, it's a good thing, there is a splash of wealth on your family." ”

The stone shook his head and said, "How is it possible." ”

"Let's go, take me to your grandma first, and you'll know what's going on."

"Can you tell me first?"

"I can't say this directly, after I finish discussing it with your grandma, I'll see if she is willing to tell you."

"What's the matter, it's so mysterious."

When going to Shi's house, Li Duoyu took out the letters written by the old man before the past, and the last time he sent a letter, after he didn't find anyone, the other party also knew how to be polite, and sent the letter back.

Led by stones.

Li Duoyu came to their house, which was actually similar to their house, and also had a small courtyard, the only difference was that their house seemed to be heading in the direction of the overseas province.

An old lady with her hair coiled up in her old-fashioned clothes with buttoned cloth was mending a fishing net in the shade.

After seeing Li Duoyu, the old lady was a little surprised: "Village director, why did you come to our house." ”

"That's right, Grandma Stone, I have something I want to ask you."

The old lady put down the net shuttle.

"Village chief, you say."

"Then I'll briefly ask if your hometown is near Jinling."

When the old lady heard this, she instantly became very surprised, since her first husband belonged to another organization.

For so many years, she has hardly mentioned it to the people on the island, she is from Jinling, and the matter of her first husband is worried that the organization thinks she wants to defect.

But how did the village chief know?

The old lady frowned and said to the stone: "You go out first, I have some things to discuss with our village director." ”

The stone was surprised.

"Can't I listen?"

The old lady said sharply, "If you can listen, I will tell you to go, and when you go, close the door." ”

Stone looked reluctant, but when he left, he still closed the door.

Where is this splashing wealth, looking at Grandma's expression, it is simply a splashing fright.

Could it be that grandma still has a special identity.

Female spy?

Double-gun old woman?

After seeing the stone go out, the old lady said: "Village director, I am indeed from that side, my real name is Ma Xiumei. ”

After confirming that it was me, Li Duoyu picked up the "Acacia Book" written for her by the old man and handed it to her.

The old lady wrinkled her brows: "What is this, I don't know how to read, can you read it to me, what is written on it?" ”

"Ahh

The content of this letter is quite sensational and numb, and the thought of reading a love letter to the person concerned makes Li Duoyu have goosebumps.

But the pumping device has been accepted, and the reading is still going to be recited, Li Duoyu suddenly felt that it was really a bit of a loss to accept the old man with a pumping machine.

Li Duoyu cleared his throat:

To Xiumei:

In countless days and nights of thinking about you, I was full of guilt, my heart was like a knife, at the beginning, I shouldn't have been rash.

When I learned that I couldn't win and I couldn't go back, I felt like the walking dead and a lot of people were drinking non-stop to numb themselves.

How I miss you,

And our children.

The old lady listened a few words.

The eye sockets are already moist,

In just a few words, she was pulled back to the hard years of forty years ago, when her husband was deceived into going to an overseas province not long after the two of them got married.

"Village chief, where did you get this letter?"

Li Duoyu replied: "I met him in the open sea last year, and he has been looking for you, so he got this letter. ”

The old lady turned around, took out a handkerchief, gently wiped away her tears, and asked, "How is he now?" ”

Li Duoyu pursed his lips. For a while, I didn't know how to answer, as far as the current situation is concerned, no matter how bad the overseas provinces are, the situation is better than the situation on Dandan Island.

"I'll give it to you, and read on."

The real situation of the old man is explained in the letter, including that he has remarried, has given birth to several children and grandchildren.

After Ma Xiumei heard this, she didn't mean to blame at all, after all, in that era of war and chaos, it was difficult for a person to live.

"It's a good thing that he didn't wait for me all the time, otherwise I really wouldn't have the face to see him."

After the whole letter was finished, Li Duoyu handed the letter to the old lady, and then asked:

"Old lady, there is one thing, I want to ask you one thing, who is the father of the stone and whose child?"

Even now, the old lady doesn't want to hide it.

"It's me and Wei Guo, Shi Laosan and I just live together, and the two of us have no children."

Li Duoyu smiled: "In this way, Shi and his grandfather have also met." ”

The old lady looked shocked: "Have they met?" ”

Li Duoyu said truthfully: "Some time ago, Shi didn't often go fishing in the open sea, so he should have seen him. ”

Outside the door, the stone that had been eavesdropping on the door, the whole head was "buzzing", and for a while, it was a little difficult to accept.

It turns out that the grandfather he often worships is not his grandfather, the old man who gives him overseas cigarettes and likes to be naked is his grandfather.

Shi still remembers it very clearly, and Li Shuguang also said that the two of them looked a little alike, so the two stood together and took a photo with their cameras.

Where would Shi have thought that that old man was his own grandfather.

It stands to reason that there is a grandfather from an overseas province, and Shi should be very happy, but at this moment, he is a little difficult to accept.

Shi chatted with the old man for a while, and knew that the old man had also married in the overseas province, and the family was quite happy.

belongs to the kind that can't run, which is also a prerequisite for the old man to be a fisherman, otherwise it is impossible for those veterans to be fishermen.

After Li Duoyu handed over the letter to Ma Xiumei, he completed the agreement with the old man.

When he opened the door, he saw the stone with a frown: "I think I heard it." ”

"yes, I heard you."

"After a while, Shuguang will continue to go fishing in the open sea, do you want to go with you, maybe you can recognize your grandfather."

Shi thought for a while: "It's a little embarrassing, I have chatted with him before, if I tell him that I am his own grandson, will he think that I am deliberately lying to him." ”

At this time, Ma Xiumei took out an old silver longevity lock from the room, which was engraved with four big characters of longevity and 100 years old, and three small characters of Gao Changping on the other side.

"Stone, if you give this thing to him, the other party will definitely know who you are."

Shi accepted the longevity lock and said, "This Gao Changping, could it be my father's original name." ”

The old lady nodded.

Shi grinned and said, "What a nice name, why did I give my father the name of a stone sledgehammer." ”

The old lady sighed with emotion: "At that time, the child was not easy to raise, and your father's original name was too big, so he gave him a hard name." ”

Shi smiled bitterly: "My name seems to be very hard. ”

"Is it hard or not?"

After dealing with this matter, Li Duoyu walked in the direction of the village committee.

As the village director, he often reports to the village committee.

I didn't think about it.

As soon as he arrived at the office, Lao Liao came to look for him and said, "Director Li, two days ago, Secretary Chen from the town came to look for you, and he said that if you come back, you will have time to look for him." ”

"Did you say anything?"

Lao Liao recalled and replied: "He came here that day, it seems that he came with the leaders of a machinery factory in Rongcheng, and it seems that there is something to promote the network machine, and I don't know what it is." ”

Lifting machine?

After hearing this, Li Duoyu's eyes instantly dilated, and he finally waited for this thing.

The net picker is a very important thing for fishermen, and it can be said that it will greatly improve the fishing experience of fishermen.

For small and medium-sized fishing vessels that release nets to fish, a netting machine is a must-have equipment if possible.

I just don't know if the net machine is expensive at this time. (End of chapter)
