Because this kelp farmer named Chen Ji did not bring a sample of the diseased kelp.

Although through his description, I have roughly guessed what the disease is.

But for the sake of prudence, Li Duoyu still followed him to the sea area where he raised kelp.

Geographically speaking, the sea area around Chenjia Village is too shallow and not suitable for raising kelp.

Normal offshore islands are deep on one side and shallow on the other, and Chenjiacun belongs to the shallow side.

At low tide, at least half a nautical stretch of beach can be exposed, which is also the reason why Chenjia Village can be developed into a tourist village in the previous life.

However, if you want to raise kelp in such a geographical environment, it is not so friendly, and you have to raise kelp at least 8 meters deep.

15~25 meters is the most suitable.

Don't look at the sea water, in fact, it is not as deep as imagined, for example, the average depth of the Bohai Sea is about 18 meters.

If farmers in Chenjia Village want to raise kelp, they need to get a deeper sea area for breeding, at least three nautical miles away, so that there is a suitable sea area for breeding.

It was too far away from the wharf in their village, and the cost of management, time, and labor, including the cost of diesel, came up in an instant.

Li Duoyu has simply calculated that in Chenjia Village, each mu of kelp earns about 30 yuan less than that in Xiasha Village.

However, this large-scale, shallow sea is not only a disadvantage, it is very suitable for the cultivation of various shellfish.

For example, there is no problem with clams, triangular shellfish, sea mussels, bamboo clams and the like, but the people of Chenjia Village do not seem to have mastered this breeding technology and do not know how to develop this sea area at present.

Li Duoyu drove a fishing boat to the kelp field where Chen Ji was breeding, and the kelp he raised was not much, only ten acres.

But as soon as he got closer, Li Duoyu smelled a smell of stinky seawater, which was the smell of rotten algae.

After Li Duoyu pulled up a kelp rope to check, he frowned on the spot, and the floats and kelp ropes were all barnacles, mussels and various seaweeds.

The whole kelp rope was very heavy, and I was almost dragged back into the sea by the kelp rope.

After pulling up the kelp rope, Li Duoyu briefly checked and found that almost all of the kelp was in trouble.

The tip of the kelp leaf becomes very green and soft to the touch, and the outer layer of kelp membrane falls off and begins to rot.

At first glance, it is a typical kelp green rot, and it is also the most common cause of kelp, which is normally caused by insufficient light and high water temperature.

But recently, the sea temperature is okay, not very high, it can be said that it is a safe period for kelp, and it cannot be caused by this.

In fact, when he first pulled it up, Li Duoyu already knew the cause of green rot.

It is a superposition of many factors, if kelp farming can have 100 points, this farmer named Chen Ji is estimated to not even get 20 points.

Looking at the kelp in front of him, Li Duoyu was quite speechless: "I remember emphasizing to you that when clamping seedlings, kelp seedlings can't be so dense." ”

The farmer named Chen Ji replied: "I know, but at that time, I miscalculated the number of acres and took 15 acres of kelp seedlings, so I sandwiched more." ”

Li Duoyu frowned, but he didn't bother to break it, this farmer named Chen Ji didn't have so many kelp fields, but he falsely reported the number of acres and took more kelp seedlings.

No matter what era it is, there are many people who are greedy for cheap, as long as it is free, even if they don't need so much, they will take as much as possible.

"You're raising these kelps too densely, you have to deal with them quickly, they don't grow like this, and they can't get sunlight when they block each other."

Li Duoyu hasn't finished yet.

Chen Ji interrupted and asked, "Can the picked kelp seedlings be tied to other places to raise?" ”

Li Duoyu raised his eyebrows, he really hated being interrupted when he was speaking seriously.

But he really didn't know if the kelp that had grown to such a big size could be hung on the kelp rope and continue to grow after being removed.

"I haven't really tried this, if you want to try it, you can try it."

Chen Ji smiled awkwardly: "Then forget it, I'll collect some of it first, dry it, it should be still edible." ”

Li Duoyu smiled, theoretically, this kind of kelp that is a little rotten, after drying, is indeed edible.

In the past, some black-hearted farmers would sell this problematic kelp with hairy cabbage, and some could be scalded with boiling water and used to make salted kelp.

Li Duoyu continued to check his kelp, but found a lot of problems, and directly took out a long bamboo pole and poked the bottom of the sea.

The bamboo pole has only gone down two-thirds of the way, and it has already been stabbed to the end, and it can't go down any further.

"Your breeding sea area is too shallow, I didn't tell you, at least eight meters or more, even if the tide rises, it will be six or seven meters at most."

Chen Ji smiled awkwardly: "I only have a sampan boat, if it is too far, my sampan boat is not easy to shake over, so I choose a closer one." ”

Li Duoyu sighed.

I've seen bad farmers, but I've never seen such a bad one.

Seeing that the bottom of the bamboo pole was brought up, it was all fine sand, and Li Duoyu came directly to the end of the kelp rope.

Then he put on gloves and pulled the kelp pile hard, but he didn't think that he really pulled the kelp pile.

"Who gave you this one?"

Chen Ji grinned, scratched his head and said, "Piling is too expensive, I drove these piles with my relatives." ”

"Ugh."

Li Duoyu sighed heavily, farming is not child's play, the place where money should not be saved, this farmer has all saved, and the most important place to save is not saved at all.

Li Duoyu didn't even know what to say about this farmer, and when he met this kind of person, he didn't even bother to preach.

He rarely smokes, but he couldn't help but have a cigarette

Seeing that Li Duoyu was a little angry, this farmer named Chen Ji asked in a low voice: "Director Li, what should I do with this kelp field?" ”

Li Duoyu frowned and thought, it was still a bit difficult to develop such a desire to remedy.

At this time, many kelp farmers found Li Duoyu and drove over by boat.

"Director Li, his kelp field should be hopeless."

Li Duoyu thought for a while and replied: "Clean up the barnacles first, and remove all the badly rotten ones, and add a float every ten meters."

"I see, I'll deal with it right away, get rid of all the barnacles and mussels, and all the extra kelp, right?"

Seeing that he was interrupted again, Li Duoyu said with a dark face: "You listen to me, can you do it." ”

Chen Ji didn't dare to speak for an instant.

Li Duoyu continued: "Your kelp fields, not only do you have to readjust the aquaculture water layer, but also reinforce all the kelp piles.

Also, you kelp, I just took a look and found that there are signs of being bitten by insects, so I have to deal with it quickly, otherwise I will attract water lice nearby, and those who raise kelp nearby may have to suffer with you. ”

The kelp farmers who were watching were all panicked when they heard that it might be affected.

"Lao Ji, hurry up and get it, if my family's kelp is also affected by you, when the time comes, I will definitely settle accounts with you."

Someone complained: "I told you a long time ago, your kelp rope is full of barnacles, and they are about to sink to the bottom of the sea, so you just don't deal with it." ”

Chen Ji scratched his head and looked apologetic: "It's really busy during the Chinese New Year, and I forgot to clean it up for a while, so I'll clean it up tomorrow." ”

"It's not tomorrow, every time I tell you something, you'll be tomorrow, God knows, how many tomorrows you have, if you have time today, hurry up and get it."

"You're really strange, you take out a loan to raise kelp, and you can't raise it well, you have spare money too quickly, or do you think prison food is more delicious."

Chen Ji wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Okay, I'll immediately call my relatives to help today, and I'll rearrange the kelp according to what Director Li said." ”

"Hurry up, don't drag everyone into the water."

After Li Duoyu helped to see the kelp, he planned to go back to the eel factory directly, but he didn't expect that the kelp farmers in Chenjia Village came to him to ask him about kelp farming.

"Director Li, let's also take a look at my kelp field, there seems to be a problem with my kelp."

There are also several people who have been to the ancestral temple on Meizhou Island with him, and they are relatively familiar.

Li Duoyu felt that they had come here, and it would not be too late for a while, so he simply helped to see their kelp farming.

After all, if they raise it well, they can also collect a little more first-class kelp, and when the time comes, they can make another amount of money.

In a sea area not far from this kelp field, Li Duoyu picked up the kelp with a bamboo pole and probed the bottom with a bamboo pole.

"Your overall maintenance of these oceans is good, but the water depth is still too shallow, and now the kelp is less than a meter, so it's not much of a problem.

But in April and May, when the kelp is two or three meters long, you have to pay a little attention, and when the kelp is heavier, you need to add a few more floats, and the water layer should also be adjusted up.

Don't let the kelp drag to the bottom, otherwise the bottom will be easy to rot and will be eaten by insects, and when the time comes, it will not be able to sell for a price. ”

"Director Li, as soon as you say that, I understand."

The farmer named Chen Shuiqiao was full of praise and said: "It's really professional, it's different, you are even more powerful than Chen Dongqing's kid." ”

Li Duoyu smiled, this person is really right, in the area of kelp farming technology, he is really much more powerful than his brother-in-law.

"Duoyu, go and see my family, it seems that the kelp I raise grows slower than others, and I don't know what's going on."

The second farmer is named Chen Awang, the eldest son of Uncle Tai, and it stands to reason that he is still related to their family.

Li Duoyu checked it carefully, frowned slightly, and said, "Brother Wang, your water depth is okay, and the overall cultivation is very good."

"But the flow is in the wrong direction, our kelp farming direction is opposite to the ocean current, and your kelp follows the ocean current."

Li Duoyu gestured with his hand on the spot: "If you raise it like this, when the ocean current comes, the kelp will all be stacked on top of each other, and it won't stretch at all, and the sun won't shine, so it will definitely not grow well." ”

Chen Awang said anxiously: "Then what to do, is there a remedy?" ”

Li Duoyu hesitated: "If you change it now, it will definitely be too late, the amount of work is too large, the harvest will definitely be a little worse, but it will not be much worse, this year will be like this, next year when you raise kelp, you must change the direction." ”

"Thank you."

Li Duoyu frowned and said, "Your father should understand, how could you make this mistake." ”

Chen Awang sighed: "Duoyu, you shouldn't know yet, the year before last, when my father raised kelp and lost money, I quarreled with him, and until now, I haven't spoken." ”

Li Duoyu smiled awkwardly, not planning to continue to delve into this question.

Li Duoyu came to the last one named Chen Xingguo, and found that the kelp was growing very well, no worse than what he raised.

Li Duoyu couldn't help but boast: "You can raise this kelp, and you can raise it better than me." ”

"It's all taught by Director Li, I'm just raising it according to what you taught."

After hearing this, Li Duoyu was stunned, as if he had not kept the knowledge of kelp farming.

It's really like teaching, you're teaching things, but whether they can learn and understand it depends on the individual.

There are good and bad students, and the same is true for farmers, and almost every farmer raises different kelp.

The same rice raises hundreds of people, an implementation standard, due to the different executors, the results are also varied.

After looking at the kelp fields of seven or eight farmers in a row, Li Duoyu pointed out the problems in their kelp farming process as much as possible.

Even the problems that may occur in the next few months were told to them.

In the area of kelp farming technology, Li Duoyu has always been open, as long as someone asks, he will answer seriously.

After spending three or four hours and seeing the kelp fields in Chenjia Village, Li Duoyu wanted to go back to the eel factory directly.

Because he was called out suddenly, he still had a lot of things that he hadn't explained clearly, but he didn't think that the people in Chenjia Village were very enthusiastic, and directly 'shelved' him back to the village, saying that they would treat him to a good meal.

"Eat it right at my house." Chen Awang said enthusiastically: "Just two days ago, I asked people to make a vat of rice wine. ”

After inviting Li Duoyu to his home, Chen Awang immediately shouted to the mother-in-law who was preparing to cook in the kitchen.

"Xiu Tao, many fish have come to our house, hurry up and fry a few appetizers, kill our muscovy duck too, and come directly to the plate of braised duck meat."

Li Duoyu hurriedly said: "It's good to be simple, don't be too polite." ”

Chen Awang said enthusiastically: "Then how can it be done, Duoyu, how often do you come to our village, if you don't entertain you well, the people in the village will scold me to death." ”

Several other farmers also said: "Ngawang is right, to be honest, many people in our village are very grateful to you. ”

The news that Li Duoyu went to Chen Awang's house for dinner soon spread, and Li Duoyu's cousin Liu Meifeng and cousin-in-law Zhang Dazhu rushed directly from the dock after hearing the news.

Liu Meifeng's eyes widened and said: "It's really a lot of fish, why don't you go to my house when you come to our village for dinner." ”

Li Duoyu smiled awkwardly, and couldn't help complaining: "I didn't want to eat it at all, I was forced to do it or not." ”

However, after seeing his cousin and cousin-in-law, Li Duoyu was inexplicably a little scared, really afraid that they would open their mouths to borrow money.

Although he is relatively wealthy now, he just doesn't want to lend money to others, especially this kind of relative.

What Li Duoyu didn't expect was that there were more and more people coming to him, and many people who participated in the Mazu patrol also came when they heard the news.

One was a small courtyard surrounded by stones, crowded with more than 20 people, all of whom were greeting Li Duoyu.

Some called him Director Li, some called him Datoujia, and some elders directly called him by his name, all to thank him.

The people of Chenjia Village may not be very good to the people of Xiasha Village, but they really respect Li Duoyu from the bottom of their hearts.

After all, the relationship between the two villages was promoted by Li Duoyu, and he also took them to engage in kelp farming, and the recent clove fish fishing also allowed their village to participate.

Many people have made a lot of money from clove fish farming.

They also knew very well that if there was no Li Duoyu's help, the current life of their village would definitely be very difficult, and it would still be the tail of the crane in Shangfeng Town.

But two months ago, according to statistics, Chenjiacun has thrown off the name of the crane tail, and now ranks tenth in Shangfeng Town, advancing a full six.

Seeing more and more people, Chen Awang scolded with a smile: "You group of people, why are you all coming to eat, my family's food is so ordered, if you want to eat together, bring your own food." ”

Chen Shuiqiao said: "My family just made salted duck, and I brought it over to everyone to drink. ”

"I have salt fried peanuts at home."

"I have dried sandworms at home, and I use them to make soup for everyone."

"I just got a lot of fish slides at home, so I'm going to get them too."

A group of people went home directly to bring things to Chen Awang's house to eat, and Li Duoyu was also frightened by their enthusiasm.

In the past, the two villages had a bad relationship, and everyone always looked down on each other, especially on the side of the Chenjia Village Council, who always felt that Li Duoyu was young and always tried every means to suppress him.

As a result, many people in the village have some opinions, and some people even say that it is not good to reconcile with them, so they should not reconcile at all.

But now that he made further contact, Li Duoyu found that the people here in Chenjia Village were actually the same as those in Xiasha Village.

No, I felt so bad before, and when I toasted, several older generations at the table couldn't help but sigh, and talked about the grievances between the two villages for many years.

But when it comes to this, the people of Chenjia Village are also very aggrieved, they are the earliest aborigines of Dandan Island.

Xiasha Village was moved later, but after these two hundred years, a lot of land and sea areas on the island have been divided by Xiasha Village.

What made them most angry was that the organization actually built the wharf to Xiasha Village, which was also the reason for the frequent fighting between the two villages in the back.

Because Chenjia Village is not popular, but there is no way at all.

After drinking a bowl of rice wine, a middle-aged man said, "Duoyu, according to generation, I am your mother's cousin." ”

"Hello cousin."

The cousin was silent for a while, and then suddenly said, "There is something, can you please tell the generations in the family, we plan to go to your fifth uncle's grave and pay respects."

After hearing this, Li Duoyu was stunned on the spot, even if he was drinking, his brain instantly cleared up.

The cousin continued: "We are really guilty about what happened back then, although our two villages often fight, but the accident was only more than 20 years ago.

But it's really not what the old lady said, we really didn't kill us. ”

Li Duoyu was suddenly a little curious, he did hear a lot about the fifth uncle, but most of them said that he rushed to the front in the weapon fight, and then he was killed by the people of Chenjia Village.

Another middle-aged man who was about the same age as his father said: "At that time, your fifth uncle was only seventeen or eighteen years old, and when he was strong-blooded, he was instigated by others, and he rushed forward directly, and he was indeed beaten by us, but your fifth uncle fell down by himself and choked on the stone. ”

After hearing this, Li Duoyu pondered for a while, he didn't fully believe what they said.

Some things are not so important to him, but he really didn't expect that it was not just the old lady who was trapped by the fifth uncle.

It seems that these people and two villages have been trapped for a long time.

It can be said that the death of the fifth uncle was the fuse for the two villages to completely fight each other and not get along with each other.

At the same time, it is also the root cause of the deterioration of the relationship between their family and the old lady.

Before the old lady left, although she suffered from Alzheimer's disease, when she was sober, she actually told the third uncle that they could allow the descendants of the Li family to worship and sweep the tomb, but Chen Huiying was the only one.

Speaking of this, Li Duoyu was also very helpless, the old lady's temper was really big, even if she died, she was very hard.

"I can't call the shots on this matter, but I can talk to the elders in the family and see what they think."

"Duoyu, this matter will trouble you, I will give you another bowl."

Li Duoyu hurriedly refused: "Cousin, it's really not good, if you drink it again, if you go back, I'm going to drive the rocking boat." ”

A middle-aged man who was drinking and his face was flushed, hehe said: "How do you shake this way, is it he?" ”

Cousin Liu Meifeng said disgustedly: "Don't talk nonsense, my family is famous for loving his wife, how can he be like you, all of them are so improper." ”

"Meifeng, when did it become your family with many fish, this is our big family, okay."

And at this time, an elder who was more talkative in Chenjia Village asked: "Director Li, there is one thing, I want to ask, can you build a house over there in Beilanling." ”

Li Duoyu frowned slightly, and did not answer his question directly.

The scenery of Chenjia Village is good, which is very suitable for tourism development zone, and he also intends to move the two villages to Beilanling and turn them into a new new area.

Li Duoyu said against his will: "I don't plan to do so for the time being, but I can ask the leader." ”

Although he would love to bring everyone over, as an adult, he can't show his thoughts too obviously.

"If I can build it, I hope that when the time comes, I plan to go over there to build it, there is no deep-water dock in our village, and the big boat is really very inconvenient, and every time I have to row a bamboo raft to get on the boat, and climb the boat ladder to get on the boat.

Bulky things can only go to the dock of your village, and when the relationship was not good in the past, our village did not dare to buy bulky things. ”

"That's right, back then, because there was no wharf, the ship carrying the diesel generator couldn't be unloaded at all, so it turned around and went back, resulting in no electricity in our village."

Li Duoyu could feel that when they talked about the dock, they were all very angry.

He really didn't expect that Chenjia Village would lose its diesel generator like this.

However, for a fishing village, it is really important to have a wharf with a deep draft, and for the inland, if you want to get rich, you must first build roads.

But for people like them who live by the sea, if they want to make money, they must build a wharf, and many times, depending on the size of the wharf in the fishing village, you can judge whether the economy of the fishing village is good or not.

Many people ran over to toast, and they just took a sip: "I did it, you feel free." ”

Li Duoyu simply accompanied a drink, if it was changed to "young", in this atmosphere, he would definitely drink to death.

But now he is an old fox, in the wine field, he has long known how to put it away freely, and he will not let the other party lose face if he accompanies him simply.

If you really encounter the kind of person who has to pour him, Li Duoyu can immediately find a wine blocker, and let the other party kill you to the death.

Although I ate this meal for a long time, Li Duoyu, who had a good goldfish, didn't drink much alcohol from beginning to end.

Chen Awang drank a lot of wine and couldn't help but say: "Our two villages really need people like you, who can make money, will take us to make money, and will not look down on us." ”

"If it weren't for the regulations, we really wanted to take down our village chief and replace you directly."

Li Duoyu frowned and said, "Brother Wang, don't talk nonsense, if people know, I won't dare to come to your village." ”

"I'm not talking nonsense, you ask everyone if they think the same way as me."

Several young people chimed in: "That's right, we support what Brother Wang said. ”

Li Duoyu hurriedly diverted from this topic, Chenjia Village is different from Xiasha Village, and it is still the elders of the clan who have the final say.

The clan is a very scary thing, and young people like Ngawang may be more rebellious, and they will think about rebellion or something.

But once you reach the age, you will naturally integrate into the clan group, and when the time comes, it is estimated that you will not say such things again.

When Li Duoyu left Chenjia Village, he happened to pass by Chen Shujing's house, and the last time he came, it was not so broken.

When I came this time, one of the walls collapsed, and depending on the situation, this house can't last a few years.

This little girl is very well-behaved, and she writes to Xiaoying every month to tell him about the latest situation.

What's more pitiful is that she still doesn't know that his mother is gone, and his father has become a death row prisoner.

Thinking of this, Li Duoyu couldn't help sighing, in this life, the family is really important, if the family is ruined and the people are gone, no matter how much money you make and how successful you are in the future, you can't make up for this shortcoming.

After Li Duoyu returned to the eel factory, he didn't think that the second brother was still there, so he simply continued to arrange the next work.

Li Duoyu said to Qingguang: "You tell your cousin Liu Yun that there are live shrimps, all of which are left to me." ”

"Second brother, the remaining two pools on the side of the eel factory, you clear them out and use them to temporarily raise sea shrimp, spread a layer of sea sand at the bottom, and after the green worms are caught, spit out water and spit for two days, and then disinfect them with our special Chinese medicine, cut them off and feed them to those sea shrimps."

Second brother Li Yaoguo looked surprised: "Duoyu, you are planning to do this."

Since there were still Qingguang and Shishi, the second brother didn't say it quite clearly, the young man had a fast mouth, and there was no need to let them know some things.

Li Duoyu nodded, and came outside with the second brother: "My brother-in-law and I are preparing to join forces to raise shrimp, you can't tell people outside about this, I went to Hong Kong Island this time, and I also plan to introduce a set of shrimp farming equipment back." ”

Li Yaoguo was surprised: "Isn't the equipment for shrimp farming very expensive, do you have enough money?" ”

Li Duoyu squinted his eyes and said: "If you pay all the money yourself, you can't develop, the organization is willing to help me best, if not, I will go to Hong Kong Island to pull some investment." ”

Li Yaoguo was stunned, and when his brother said this, he suddenly opened his mind, as if the first two fake Hong Kong Island people who were engaged in abalone farming were playing with empty gloves and white wolves.
