1983 Small Island, Starting From a Large Farmer

Chapter 133 Hong Kong Islanders come to invest in abalone farming

 After hearing the broadcast.

 Everyone was attracted by the content of the broadcast, especially after hearing that people from Hong Kong Island were investing. Most villagers were very interested.

 “Holly, I’ll come back to you later.”

 “I’ll check in with you later.”

People who had just signed up with Chen Dongqing and were preparing to participate in oyster farming went to the production team one after another.

Li Duoyu and Chen Dongqing looked at each other with helplessness on their faces.

Hong Kong Islanders,

 Invest in raising abalone.

Without even thinking, the two of them had already guessed who the two Hong Kong Islanders were.

 Chen Dongqing said: "I'll go over first to see what's going on."

"Um."

It can be seen that everyone has left. A few casual workers who came to help stick the oyster sprouts were a little unable to sit still after hearing the announcement.

 “There are many fish, I’ll go take a look and I’ll be back later.”

“Xiaoxia, wait until I get off, and I’ll go with you.”

One-third of the people left at once. Seeing that there were more and more people in the group, the second sister-in-law Zhu Xiuhua's small stool seemed to have needles growing out of it, and she became restless.

After struggling for a while, the second sister-in-law couldn't help but said: "Duoyu, I'll go take a look too."

Lao Li couldn't help but frowned when he saw that Zhu Xiuhua had also left. The people who came to help were all neighbors and relatives, and he was too embarrassed to say anything.

Looking at the pile of oyster seedlings in front of me, I couldn't help but speed up the process of sorting them.

 Seeing that the person was halfway gone, Li Duoyu frowned slightly, but it was understandable.

If you just simply raise abalone, everyone may not be interested, because here on Dandan Island, abalone is not a particularly delicious thing, and many seafood are tastier than abalone.

 What really attracted them was the two Hong Kong Islanders. Due to the smuggling of goods, the people from Dandan Island had contact with the Hong Kong Islanders and learned that Hong Kong Island is now very prosperous.

 Some fishermen even have a calendar of Hong Kong Island scenery in their homes, with night views of Victoria Harbor and photos of Kowloon Bay.

 But Li Duoyu always felt awkward with the two Hong Kong Islanders he had met before.

During the time when Li Duoyu was selling goods, he also had contact with people from Hong Kong on large ships.

At that time, I thought their way of speaking was particularly interesting. When chatting with you, in order to make mainlanders understand, they would often speak in three languages ​​at the same time.

 English, Hong Kong Island dialect, occasionally mixed with one or two Mandarin Chinese.

  But those two Hong Kong Islanders spoke the local dialect of Hong Kong Island, and they didn’t even have a few words in English.

If you are a native Hong Kong Islander who received the ****, you will definitely speak English, but if you are the descendant of the people who went there during the war, you will definitely also speak Mandarin.

Li Duoyu touched the cement with the oyster sprouts stuck on it. It was estimated that there would still be more than three hours before the cement hardened.

 He was a little worried, so he just went over and took a look.

 After arriving at the square.

 Li Duoyu found that half of the village was here, even people from Chenjia Village, and even saw Chen Atai.

Everyone surrounded the square, and some people even climbed directly into the trees in order to see the people on the stage.

 Some older children even climbed to the roof and sat on the tiles.

A nearby villager saw the person sitting on the roof of the tile and cursed: "Xiaoguang, if you break my tile by sitting on it, I will make your parents pay for it."

On the stage now, there was only Wang Dapao. He took a loudspeaker and shouted to everyone: "Come, let us welcome our distinguished guests from Dandan Island."

After Wang Dapao finished speaking, he applauded immediately, and the villagers also applauded.

Immediately afterwards, two Hong Kong people familiar to Li Duoyu came out from behind. With them were the female translator and Yang Zairong, deputy director of the Fisheries Research Institute.

 “It was indeed them.”

Wang Dapao introduced them with a smile on his face.

“These two are distinguished guests who plan to come to our Dandan Island to invest in raising abalone. This is Mr. Zhang Binru Zhang, and this is Mr. Bunana.”

Hearing Wang Dapao call himself Banana, the Hong Kong Islander got a little angry and said to his translator: "It's Banana, not Bunana."

The female translator Xiao Zhu had no choice but to correct her:

 “Captain Wang, this is Mr. Banana.”

 “Oh, it’s Bunana.”

Female translator Xiao Zhu smiled awkwardly. She also looked at the quiet Hong Kong Islander with a headache. In fact, this was the first time she heard such a strange English name.

 Hong Kong Island people he had met before, very few of them would use fruit as their name.

What surprised Li Duoyu was that Zhang Binru, a Hong Kong native, spoke quite interestingly. He aroused the emotions of the villagers in just two or three times, and most of what he talked about was related to abalone.

“Let me ask, how do you eat abalone?” “Of course you eat it cooked.”

 “Marinated with soy sauce.”

Zhang Binru waved his hands and said: "You are ruining abalone by eating it like this. We usually eat abalone in Hong Kong after it is dried."

There are many ways to eat it, the most common one is rice with abalone juice.

There is also runny abalone.

 Must be made with dry abalone.

Abalone needs to be soaked for three days. To make this kind of abalone, five pig feet, one chicken, and three pounds of ribs are used to make soup. The essence is poured on the abalone.

There is also a way to eat Dripping Guanyin. You need to use a big steamer and put the big abalone under the steamer. On the first day, hang a duck on the top of the steamer to steam, so that the duck dew drips on the abalone. .

 Change to another chicken the next day.

 Change to another pigeon on the third day.

Let the abalone absorb all the essence. In our place, the dripping Guanyin abalone made like this can be sold for hundreds of yuan. "

After Zhang Binru said this, the onlookers kept swallowing their saliva. For them, chicken, duck and pork were already luxury ingredients.

Unexpectedly, people in Hong Kong only use it as a seasoning for soup. What excites everyone most is that the abalone produced in this way can be sold for hundreds of dollars.

Li Duoyu was originally a little doubtful about the identity of the two Hong Kong Islanders, but after seeing that they could tell so many abalone recipes.

I think it must be someone from there. After all, he even knows about dripping Guanyin and abalone, so it seems that it can’t be fake.

However, Li Duoyu felt that Zhang Binru was so eloquent that if he didn't engage in pyramid schemes, he would be overqualified for abalone farming.

 After talking about the various ways to make abalone, the man named Zhang Binru started talking about the main topic: "I came to Guidao today because I sincerely want to cooperate with you in raising abalone."

After speaking, he picked up an abalone and asked again: "How much can such an abalone sell for here?"

 After seeing abalone.

 Everyone laughed and said, "You can't sell it for money at all. There aren't many people here who eat abalone."

“It becomes very hard after being cooked for too long and can cause tooth decay. My grandma lost a tooth from eating this.”

 An aunt said heartbrokenly: “I used to feed a lot of abalone meat to pigs.”

When female translator Xiao Zhu heard abalone being fed to pigs again, she remembered the young man who had quarreled with them a few days ago. She thought about it and did not translate this sentence.

Zhang Binru smiled and said: "In our place, abalones are counted by the head. That is, after they are dried, you will see how many abalones there are in a pound."

“The one I’m holding in my hand is called a sixteen-headed abalone. In our place, an abalone like this can be sold for five yuan.”

“The eight-headed abalone and the four-headed abalone are more expensive. The top-quality two-headed abalone can sell for thousands of yuan.”

After hearing the price, everyone's heart beat faster. The lady who just said that she would feed the abalone to the pigs was so angry that she slapped her thigh.

“You’re really pretty. I fed the pigs at least several thousand abalones. How much does it cost?”

Li Duoyu also frowned. Having worked illegally in the island country, he naturally knew the price of dried abalone, but most of those abalones were wrinkled plate abalone and net abalone from the island country.

Li Duoyu happened to have dozens of these dried abalones in his hands. They were all caught and dried while raising kelp.

Li Duoyu shouted: "I have dozens of sixteen-headed abalones like this in my hand right now. How about I make it cheaper and sell it to you for two and a half yuan?"

 After seeing Li Duoyu, the female translator's face turned a little ugly. She had already experienced how powerful this man was a few days ago.

Unexpectedly, he turned out to be a fisherman from Dandan Island.

 As for Deputy Director Yang Zairong, when he saw Li Duoyu and Chen Dongqing beside him, his face became a little ugly. He wanted to say to the female translator: "Ignore him."

Without thinking, Wang Dapao took the lead and said: "Duoyu, you don't understand. The abalone our distinguished guest got is not the same species as your abalone."

"I heard from Director Yang that the abalone we have here on Dandan Island is variegated abalone, which is not delicious, and the abalone our distinguished guests are holding is net abalone. This kind of abalone is not comparable to the variegated abalone you have. They came here to invest in raising this kind of abalone.”

 After hearing this.

Li Duoyu frowned: "Isn't the net abalone a cold-water abalone? Can it be raised here?"

Wang Dapao saw that Li Duoyu kept causing trouble and said angrily: "Do you understand or Director Yang understands?"

“Do you know how much effort we put into inviting these two investors?”

The Zhao brothers were so excited that their hearts beat faster at this moment. All they could think about was that one abalone could be sold for five yuan, and a piece of dripping Guanyin abalone could be sold for one hundred yuan.

 As if the next moment,

 It’s like you’re going to get rich soon.

They couldn't hold Li Duoyu's thigh, but today they decided to hold on to this new thigh.

Seeing Wang Dapao talking about Li Duoyu, the two brothers also said, "Brother Yu, if you can't make money yourself, just stop everyone from making money."

When the two brothers said this, everyone also echoed: "Yes, there are many fish, don't make trouble first, and listen to what others say."
