Chapter 609
Zhao Qin was disturbed and came to the beach at about one o’clock. He stayed there until more than three o’clock before he turned around and left.
Although his own breeding plan has not yet started, several of his boatmen and Lao Zhu have started to raise oysters this year. If the red tide lasts for more than three days,
Even if these oysters are still alive, they can only be salvaged and destroyed, because there are toxins deposited in their bodies. Such oysters cannot be eaten by people, not even chickens and ducks.
Thinking of this, his mood became heavier.
The sound of opening the door disturbed Zhao Anguo again, “Where did you go in the middle of the night?”
“Dad, Blue Tears is coming.”
Zhao Anguo’s room was quiet for a moment, and then he heard the sound of getting up again. After a while, he pushed the door open and walked out.
Zhao Qin did not follow him. He lay on the bed and closed his eyes in thought until he fell asleep more than an hour later.
It was already bright after a short sleep. He woke up under the influence of his biological clock. Although he had nothing to do today, he did not stay in bed. He got up, washed up and rushed to the dock.
He met his elder brother on the way. His expression was also heavy.
“Why is it here in this season?”
Red tides are generally more or less regular. In previous years, they were mostly seen in the South China Sea from March to May, in the East China Sea from May to July, and in the Bohai Sea from July to September. That’s why Zhao Ping said this.
But this is not absolute. It’s a natural disaster. Who can say for sure?
“I hope it can be withdrawn today, so that the losses of the farmers will be smaller.”
Zhao Qin ignored his elder brother’s mumbling. Things have already happened, so we must prepare for the worst.
There are people everywhere on the beach. It’s too early. The construction site has not started yet. It can be said that everyone in the village has come here.
At this moment, on the sea, as the sky brightens, the blue cold light has completely disappeared, replaced by strips like red ribbons, floating on the water, drifting with the waves.
Regardless of whether they have farmed at home or not, everyone’s face is not good at this moment. This is not the time to gloat over misfortune,
because everyone’s roots and lives are closely related to the sea, or completely tied together, and red tide is pollution to the ocean and damage to the roots. It would be strange to be in a good mood.
“If it lasts for more than three days, it will be troublesome.” As soon as Zhao Qin arrived, Lao Luo came close to him and said.
“Uncle Luo, from the past, is it likely to last for three days?”
Lao Luo shook his head, “Not much, our area is very short, often retreating in one or two days, but the longest time has lasted for a week, who can say for sure.
If it really lasts that long, you can’t eat marine fish for the next month.”
“Is it so serious?”
“People didn’t care about these things in the past, but now there are other things to eat when you don’t eat seafood, so you’d better be careful, especially children, don’t touch seafood for a short time.”
Zhao Qin nodded.
After a while, Zhuzi, Lao Mao and others rode motorcycles directly to the dock, and then all surrounded Zhao Qin.
It was originally the turn of Achen’s group to go out to sea today. After getting up at 4 o’clock, Achen immediately called his father when he saw the situation on the sea, so he did not go out to sea again.
“Brother Aqin, this is trouble.”
As soon as Ace said this, he saw Lao Mao and Zhuzi glaring at him.
“Aqin, the family is rich, and the oysters did not invest much.” Lao Mao said without waiting for Zhao Qin to speak.
“Yes, it’s just a loss of 10,000 or 20,000 yuan. There are so many of us, how much can each person share.” After Zhuzi finished speaking, he glared at Ace again,
Why mention these, are you blaming Zhao Qin for letting us do aquaculture at that time?
If you really have this idea, then you are still a human being!
Zhao Qin glanced at everyone and smiled indifferently. Aquaculture has risks. As Zhuzi said, it is not that he can’t afford to lose money, so he will not support these people.
“Everything has risks. Fortunately, the clams you raise will not be affected too much. Including oysters, this year we can only break even.”
The old cat pointed to the other side and sighed, “It’s good to break even.”
Zhao Qin looked over and saw two or three women wiping tears. These were all invested in aquaculture. If the red tide lasted for a few days, many families would lose all their money.
Years of hard work went down the drain, and it was inevitable to suffer injuries.
Zhao Anguo was chatting with several elderly people in the village, and everyone was not in a good mood.
“Natural disasters are inevitable. It looks like the red tide will not retreat so quickly this time. The farmers really have no hope.” Zhao Anguo sighed.
Several elderly people echoed the complaints, but one of them said with a serious face: “It’s not like they will starve to death. It’s just a few years of poverty. Who are you showing that face to?”
The old man was the one who saw Zhao Qin return from the boat and scold the woman who was saying sour words at the dock last time. His surname was Zhong,Strictly speaking, he is Zhong Yongping’s second grandfather.
He is nearly eighty years old this year, has sharp ears and eyesight, and even his voice is full of energy.
“Uncle Zhong, I just feel a pity…”
Before Zhao Anguo finished speaking, he was interrupted again by Old Man Zhong. He looked around and found that there was no one else, and then said: “You are the backbone of everyone. You are howling here because you want to lead everyone to scold you. ,
If scolding is helpful, I will follow suit. In the past, the more disaster years occurred, the more unreasonable cadres became. It was not that they were unwilling to speak out, but that they knew it would be useless to speak out. ”
At this point, Old Man Zhong lowered his voice a little, “The village is now a large construction site, and you are paid for every work done. It is not like digging river embankments in the town before. Not only do you have to work voluntarily, but you also have to provide your own food. Go ahead.”
Zhao Anguo lost his temper even after being told a few words by the old man. He agreed and went to the crying women, “Why are you crying? Your men are not dead yet, so you are losing money. I just think about how to make money.” ,
If you lose money, you will have nothing to eat. If you don’t have anything to eat, come to my house and I will lend you rice without charging interest. ”
Not far away, Old Man Zhong smiled when he saw this. This big country provoked me and took it out on those people.
He turned around and looked around, and saw half of the tall man’s head, Zhao Qin, who stood out from the crowd. He waved, “Xiaoer, come here.”
Zhao Qin was stunned. Who is this? Calling the waiter?
Turning around, he saw the old man waving in his direction, and he quickly looked around to find who the waiter was.
“Looking for a shit, it’s you who screamed.”
Only then did Zhao Qin react and walked up to him, “Grandpa, my name is Aqin. Have you forgotten?”
The old man grinned, with a look of satisfaction in his eyes, and then stretched out his hand, “Give me a cigarette. I was so anxious to leave early in the morning that I forgot to bring it with me.”
Zhao Qin just took out the cigarettes, but the old man grabbed the cigarette case directly into his hand, took a look at it and said with disgust:
“The whole village says that you, a young kid, have made a fortune. Why don’t you smoke that Chinese thing?”
“That cigarette is not easy to smoke. It doesn’t taste as good as this one.”
The old man smiled and nodded, took one out, returned the rest to Zhao Qin, and lit it with the lighter in Zhao Qin’s hand, “Yes, it’s easier to smoke than the earlier pot.”
Zhao Qin smiled and then looked at the sea again.
The old man was dangling back home with a cigarette in his mouth. He liked Zhao Qin very much. Whenever he heard other people say something bad about him, he would always yell and curse.
Speaking of the reason, it was the 20,000 yuan that Zhao Qin had donated to the village primary school.
There are a lot of people in the village who are good people, and many of them donated money to temples and Buddhist temples when they came back, but no one donated three to five hundred yuan to the primary school.
However, Zhao Qin could see that it was not easy for his children to go to school, so he spent 20,000 yuan. He donated it last year, and I heard that he also donated this year. Children like this should earn more money.
