1983 Small Island, Starting From a Large Farmer

Chapter 48 Ending (Please Read on) (1/2)

Chapter 48 The End (please follow up)

Knowing that so many villagers who had gone overseas to sell goods had not returned, Chen Huiying quickly took Li Duoyu to pay her respects.

Fortunately, he behaved early.

If he were caught too.

Thinking of Zhou Xiaoying who was still pregnant.

Chen Huiying was frightened for a while.

Before saying goodbye, she first went to the island supply and marketing cooperative and spent money to buy a lot of tributes.

And Li Duoyu discovered that his mother was very willing to spend money on matters related to bye-bye.

Preserved fruits, candies, melon seeds.

Red paper, incense, gold foil.

I also bought oranges and grapefruits that are very expensive on Dandan Island.

All the tributes cost Chen Huiying a total of ten yuan and seventy cents, and this money should be her biggest expense this year.

Li Duoyu followed A Niang.

After walking up the stone steps in the village for about two hundred meters, we came to the Tianhou Temple on Dandan Island, which is also the Mazu Temple.

When he arrived, many people were already paying their respects. Li Duoyu found that most of the people who came to pay their respects were those who had stolen goods from their families.

Agui's mother and his wife Zhang Meiying were also there.

A Guiniang, who was holding a bunch of incense in her hand, was filled with emotion after seeing Chen Huiying:

"You have a lot of fish in your house. It's time to behave. It would be nice if the one in my family behaved earlier, so that I wouldn't be unaware of where the person is now."

Chen Huiying replied: "It's all Mazu's blessing."

Li Duoyu glanced at Zhang Meiying. She didn't know why, but this woman always looked bitter and resentful. Especially when she saw him, she looked like she wanted to kill him.

Did I mess with her?

Is this woman sick?

After entering Thean Hou Temple, Chen Huiying lit the incense specially used for worshiping gods, worshiped sincerely, and whispered:

"Empress of Heaven, believer Chen Huiying, thank you for blessing my family Li Duoyu"

Immediately afterwards, Chen Huiying gave half of the incense to Li Duoyu, and asked him to insert it into the incense burner and kneel three times and kowtow nine times.

Mazu's status is very high in the eyes of coastal fishermen. They who go to sea often worship her all year round.

And after worshiping Mazu.

Chen Huiying went to the blind man who was visiting the temple, asked for a lottery tube, knelt in front of Mazu, and shook it gently.

As a stick slides out of the stick,

After falling to the ground.

Chen Huiying handed the dropped lot to Blind Chen.

After blind man Chen took the sign, he asked: "Who is asking for it?"

"Ask my son."

"What's your name and where are you from?"

"Li Duoyu, let's go to Xiasha Village, from the seventh team."

"What do you want to ask?"

"Ask for peace."

After blind Chen touched the number on the signature, his expression was very surprised:

"This is your 36th song."

The signed poem talks about:

"Blessings are like the East China Sea and longevity is like the mountains,

Why should you lament the suffering?

Good luck will naturally come to you in your life.

Praying for peace of mind. "

Chen Huiying, who had little education, frowned and asked: "Is this song good?"

Blind Chen put the lot down gently and said with a serious face: "If you are asking for this lot for your son, then you don't need to ask. The person who asks for this lot will have great blessings, and any misfortune will naturally turn into good luck." , As long as you don’t do anything wrong, everything will be smooth sailing.”

Chen Huiying's face was full of joy: "It's really so good."

Blind Chen nodded: "The prodigal son will not exchange for gold when he returns home, but he will return home in fine clothes and become a wise man."

"Master Chen, what do you mean by this?"

"It means that your son is not an ordinary person."

In the past, Li Duoyu never believed in this. He felt that these fortune tellers like to say ambiguous things. No matter whether things are going for better or worse, they will make you feel that there is some truth and basis.

But since he came back from rebirth, he has become more in awe of this world, and would rather believe in its existence than its non-being.

Just when Li Duoyu and the others were finishing their worship.

At the pier of Dandan Island, several law enforcement boats suddenly arrived. They seemed to be some grassroots workers in the county. Under the leadership of the captain of Dandan Island, they entered their village.

And after they came.

Not long after, the list of the smugglers arrested last night was announced directly through the loudspeaker in the village.

First team: Song Guoping, Lin Daxin

Team 2: Zhang Agui, Wang Minglan, Ou Junliang

Team 7: Li Yujun, Lu Xiaohei

After hearing these lists.

Some felt as if they had been struck by lightning, while others were a little lucky. At least nothing happened to them, and being alive was better than anything else.

After Li Zhengfa heard Yu Jun's name, he shook his head helplessly. After a night of suffering, he was already mentally prepared.

"It doesn't matter if you're caught, you'll be good after being locked up for a few years."

Zhou Meiying cried: "It's not because you were pregnant, so of course you don't feel bad."

There was no movement in the room where the old lady lived. But what they didn't expect was that the village radio continued to shout:

"Villagers Zhang Agui, Lu Xiaohei and Li Yujun behaved badly because they collided with an anti-smuggling ship and smuggled a huge amount of goods. They will be severely punished. I hope all fellow villagers will take this as a warning."

"Because Zhang Agui resisted violently during the collision and unfortunately fell into the sea, please ask his family to go to the town government to claim him back."

Agui Niang, who was still praying for blessings, dropped the incense in her hand to the ground after hearing this broadcast, and started crying on the spot.

Agui's wife, Zhang Meiying, stood there stupidly. For a moment, she couldn't accept this fact.

Why is everyone doing well?

Is his Agui gone?

After hearing this broadcast, Li Duoyu was stunned for a long time. He didn't expect that in this life, Agui would still fall into the sea and disappear.

Many scenes of the two of them playing together when they were young emerged in his mind.

The two of them had secretly driven a boat.

They often went to the mudflats to catch fish and crabs together.

At that time, they were together every day, listening to the radio together, and talking about their ideals in life together.

But since they made money from shipping goods.

Everything changed. The ambitions of the two continued to expand, and they ate, drank, and gambled everywhere.

Li Duoyu sighed.

Sometimes Li Duoyu couldn't help but wonder, if no one shipped goods to Dandan Island, would the two of them be like other fishermen, running around on the sea to support their families.

However, the broadcast was not over yet.

"Since the crime of smuggling goods has increased in recent years, in order to crack down on the crime of smuggling goods and stop this evil trend, we welcome all villagers to come and report it."

"We also welcome all villagers to come and surrender. We will give lighter punishment to those who surrender, and will severely sentence those stubborn elements."

This broadcast is like opening the Pandora's box of Dandan Island. The gap between the rich and the poor has long made many people on Dandan Island red-eyed.

Those who did not make money by smuggling goods flocked to the production brigade to report those fishermen who smuggled goods, and Wang Jinjun, the president of the supply and marketing cooperative, was the most active.

Li Zhengfa knew that he would not be able to escape. He suddenly remembered what Li Duoyu said to him last night. He gritted his teeth and said to his wife Zhou Meiying:

"You take care of this family first."

Seeing Li Zhengfa say this, Zhou Meiying shouted nervously: "Boss, where are you going?"

"Go and surrender to see if it is possible to reduce Yujun's sentence."

At this time, there was a movement in the old lady's room. She kept knocking on the wooden fish and chanting Buddhist scriptures.

Since he was the first to surrender, the local law enforcement officers also decided to give Li Zhengfa a lighter punishment.

Only his illegal gains were confiscated.

But Li Yujun's sentence was not reduced because of his surrender.

On the second day, dozens of people on Dandan Island were called for a talk. Most of the fishermen on the island who became rich by selling goods chose to spend money to avoid disaster.

In just two days.

Dandan Island seemed to have returned to the time when it was just opened. Most people were at the same starting point again, and Li Duoyu had 30 acres more kelp breeding rafts than them.

Faced with such a situation.

Lao Li and Chen Huiying were very happy because the village broadcast had called the name for two days, but the name of their fourth child was not called.

But what they didn't expect was.

Li Duoyu actually ran to the brigade to surrender.

The moment he saw Li Duoyu coming to the brigade, Li Yaoguo, who was helping with chores, was also scared.

"I didn't call your name, why are you here?"

Li Duoyu glanced at these law enforcement officers and found the problem.

If I read correctly, there is a law enforcement officer here who had met him once at the Fisheries Research Institute.

Li Duoyu was very clear in his mind. It was impossible that no one had reported him. If his name was not read, there was only one possibility.

He was suppressed by someone.

The law enforcement officer who had met Li Duoyu once smiled at him and said, "Are you here to turn yourself in?"

"Yes."

"Then take the initiative to explain the process of the crime of smuggling goods."

Li Duoyu did not hide anything and directly told the law enforcement officer all his experiences of smuggling goods.

"Do you still have the 2,300 yuan you earned illegally?"

"I'm very sorry, comrade. I used the money to grow kelp."

"Then let's put it this way. We'll keep this stolen money for you and make it up to you when you make money in the future."

The law enforcement officer continued:

"Since you surrendered yourself and spent the illegal proceeds on rural economic revitalization, we want to write a report about your deeds and publish it in a magazine. What do you think?"

Li Duoyu nodded on the spot: "It should be possible!"

Li Yaoguo, who was doing odd jobs on the side, was completely confused. What kind of punishment is this?

This is simply a reward.

On the second night when the law enforcement officers arrived, Zhang Meiying, who was wearing a linen shirt, never heard Li Duoyu's name read on the village radio. She was so angry that she ran to the brigade to make a scene and questioned the law enforcement officers.

"Why didn't you call Li Duoyu's name?"

"He turned himself in a long time ago."

"Then why hasn't he been arrested yet?"

The law enforcement officer looked at Zhang Meiying in front of him and criticized him harshly: "Do you have a grudge against him? He turned himself in and behaved so well. Why should we arrest him? Besides, this is a serious law enforcement point, not a place for you to vent your personal grudges."

Zhang Meiying was completely dumbfounded.

She couldn't understand why the whole world was biased towards Li Duoyu.

Some digressions.

Maybe the plots I wrote may not be to everyone's taste.

But I can't help it.

This author has obviously tried very hard.

But he seems to have only this ability.

He is still a rough man with long legs and hair. He can't write delicate emotions at all, let alone be a worm in your stomach.

The only thing I can think of.

It is to make up for it through the plot and background.

Before, I talked about it in the comment area. The reason for writing this book was to listen to the old man's memories, and then there was the background and plot of this book.

The person "Agui" has a prototype, but in that era, he was just a small figure, and when he left, he couldn't even make a little wave.

His story is simpler. When he was transporting goods, he encountered a big storm and died directly. In the end, he didn't even find his shoes.

As for prices, aquatic products, seafood, etc., in addition to my grandfather's personal narration, Baidu search, Douyin search, most of them refer to the following books:

"Yan Moss Aquatic Products Chronicle"

"Hu Jian Province Aquatic Products Chronicle"

"A Love to Eat Hu Jian Province Aquatic Products Chronicle".

For the first time in my life, I love this kind of local chronicles so much.

These aquatic products chronicles have a relatively detailed introduction, including the fish situation at that time, production and price, etc.

I can create a group when I have the opportunity in the future.

I will share the information above.

Finally, I still ask for follow-up reading, votes, and active comments. The author has not learned to generate electricity with love. If you don't support me, I will really starve to death! !
