Chapter 998 Going Home (7000 words)(1/3)
After Ye Yaodong finished, he hurriedly pedaled his bicycle back to the shipyard to return it.
Running back and forth, I didn’t have time to chat with others, or stay in the factory to see how my ship was being built.
Father Ye took advantage of the waiting time and squinted for a while. It was not until the roar of the machine sounded that he realized that the ship was moving, and he quickly got up and went to the cockpit.
"Just came back? Did you explain clearly?"
"The explanation has been completed and the things have been handed in. The rest is none of our business."
"That's good! Then hurry back. It's already two o'clock in the afternoon, and you've been delayed for more than two hours."
"It always takes time to do things. I'm not going back and forth by rocket. You can go and sleep. I happen to be very energetic."
"Then what does Director Chen say?"
"What else can I say? Just say that he will report the matter first. What else can I tell you? Where can I explain everything to you clearly?"
"Oh, then you didn't say anything?"
Ye Yaodong glanced at him and suddenly realized that what his father meant was whether there would be any reward.
"You want to ask if there is any reward? Do you dare to ask for it? Aren't you afraid of being retaliated against if people find out that it was us who made the snitch?"
"Uh...no, I just want to know what benefits this can bring to Director Chen."
"Things haven't made any progress yet. Who knows what benefits it can bring to others? If you ask him, he doesn't know. Anyway, when we have something to do, we are thinking about them, and they must appreciate it."
"Then isn't it like giving away that box of goods to others for free? Isn't that canned product valuable? And didn't you say that the caviar costs several thousand yuan per pound? You should get a few pieces from that box.
If you can have a pound of caviar, that’s a lot of money..."
"You just realized it. It's like giving him a box of goods for free. No matter if he takes it to report it to see if he can get some credit, or he keeps it for himself."
Father Ye frowned, "After all, we still lost money. We worked all night and hid two boxes of goods. We had to send one box out, but we didn't get anything else."
"Didn't we also keep a box? It's really worth so much money, how dare you cash it in? You can only keep it for yourself, don't they take good care of us?"
"Give him a box and see if it is of any use to him. It will definitely benefit him. For us, we can only eat it. Isn't this better as a favor? We got a motorcycle for free before.
I haven’t even thanked them properly yet, as I had to keep going back and forth.”
His father probably thought that sending a box of goods would be beneficial to others, and if they got promoted and made a fortune, maybe a little more of the inside of their fingers would be exposed, which would give them some glory, or maybe let them get some subsidies, which would mean they didn't get it in vain.
pay.
However, the key point is that they don't dare to accept the reward for reporting this at all, so why worry about it, as long as Director Chen will accept their request.
Some favors cannot be easily bought with money and are more important than these benefits.
"Okay, whatever you want, I'll give it away, so just treat it as repaying the favor of the motorcycle."
"Don't think about it. He will definitely get promoted and make a fortune in the future. Let's maintain our relationship better. This is also a way. He is also quite conscientious and easy to talk to. He doesn't mind that we are country people. We are quite enthusiastic when we go to his house.
.”
"Isn't that enthusiasm? How often do we come home empty-handed? They always deliver sack after sack of stuff."
"Dad, we can't be too short-sighted. Many people have no way to establish friendship..."
"You don't need to tell me the truth. I'm old enough and I know better than you. I just feel uncomfortable because I worked for nothing last night. I feel that officials are not easy to deal with, and we ordinary people can do whatever they want.
In this way, if you say you want to arrest them, you will arrest them, if you say you want to button them, you will button them up. Maybe they will be released when the time comes, and each one of them will really have nothing left."
"This is really possible. Who asked them to beat the police officers? They went all the way to rescue them at night. In the end, they did not get any benefits and were even beaten. If they had sat down to negotiate compensation at that time, maybe one party would
I could keep some of it, but now that it’s all been taken away, I probably won’t be polite to you.”
Nowadays, the law is not perfect, and it is just a matter of words. In recent years, it has emphasized stern treatment. If you have the handle, it is justifiable to imprison you for a few days if you want, and make you bankrupt if you want to bankrupt.
"Let's see if we can bring some benefit to Director Chen. This way we won't waste one night in vain. It's not just one night, it's the whole day. It's already evening when we get home from the boat."
"We were able to make it in time for dinner. Fortunately, we had great luck on the first day. We made enough money in one day, and the next few days were average. But at any rate, we also made 5,000 yuan."
"I haven't asked you yet, how much did it sell for this morning?"
"Ten thousand kilograms of toad fish were left to be dried and not sold. The remaining several thousand kilograms were sold for about 300 yuan. There is no need to replenish supplies on this trip. What is sold is the real deal, and there is no need to spend any money."
"That's okay. I made almost 5,000 yuan this time. It's not a loss. If you delay it for one day, just delay it for one day. Those people have been arrested. Maybe all their wealth will be lost when they come out."
Father Ye was still a little grudgeful as usual, but thinking that he would probably have to clean himself up and get out of the situation made him feel more mentally balanced.
"My father-in-law paid more than a thousand yuan in the city."
"That's good. I went to the city after the New Year, and in just one week, I got more than a thousand yuan..."
"This is not a pure profit. How much have I invested in dried fish and fish sauce?"
Father Ye nodded, "That's enough to earn one-third and one-fourth. It's just for a few days, and the store doesn't require rent. From now on, I'll keep the goods on my own ship for drying. If I don't have enough, I'll add some from outside. This way, I'll pay the capital."
Just a little less, and you can earn a little more. In the morning, you also asked the Harvest to save the cheap toad fish for you to dry, right? When they moved ashore, they didn't see a lot of goods."
"Yes, we agreed to go back to the dock to have it weighed and give it to us based on the market wholesale price. It also saves us having to go out to collect it and make a fortune for the agency."
"Well, it's still the case that you, a big shipping company, have a lot of goods and can get money quickly. The Harvest is still 30% of what you earn."
Ye Yaodong smiled happily when he thought of this. Sure enough, rich people will become richer.
Earn money and then invest it to make money, it's like a snowball.
Working people can only work hard to save money, and it is not as simple as rich people making money.
"Mainly because I was lucky enough to catch up."
Not only is he a variable in this life, A Guang is also a variable.
A few years ago, he changed his name early and stayed in the village without leaving. Uncle Pei's connections were all around him, making use of each other and developing together.
"I'll go back and take a nap. Just watch here. This area of the county is not far from our village, and you should be familiar with the roads along the way."
"I know, don't worry and go to sleep."
"Um."
When Ye Yaodong was driving the boat alone, he was also calculating the income and gains from the trip, thinking that when he docked in the evening, he would give a two-dollar start-up red envelope to each of the boatmen on the boat.
You must do what you promised.
Two yuan is almost equivalent to one day's wages. I have just started working and I have received red envelopes, which is quite a lot.
There is no need to divide the cans. Leave a few on the boat to be used as side dishes when you go to sea next time. You can just taste them together. Your family and friends can share some according to the situation when they return.
It started to get dark last night and has been delayed until now. The net has not been set for fishing. Just yesterday during the day, plus the afternoon before yesterday, I started to leave groceries. The quantity is small but not large, and the total is nearly 10,000 kilograms.
In the past, when the Harvest Cruise went back on the last day, they would pick up a few groceries and take them back, which only amounted to a few thousand kilograms. If they left them early, they were worried about the fuel consumption, and they were not so sure on which day they would return. It usually depended on the wind direction and the harvest situation.
Decide.
If there is a lot of cargo at sea, you can catch a lot, so of course you need to stay a day or two longer. If the cargo is less, there will be no profit, so stop for two days less and go home to rest early.
It's not mainly for my own needs, it's just left over, and I can't sell it for much, so I can recycle it with a little interest.
Ye Yaodong also reserved the goods early yesterday because of his own needs, and asked his father to also reserve the goods one day in advance.
Now I have brought back nearly 10,000 kilograms, which is more than any previous trip, twice as much.
Coupled with the goods from the Harvest, both workshops will be very busy after they dock.
With more than 20,000 kilograms of toad fish and more than 20,000 kilograms of groceries, many women had to be temporarily hired to work. The employment rate in the village has greatly increased.
Fortunately, it's cold now, so I can't kill all these things in one day, so I can still keep them and they won't go bad after killing them for another two days. After all, there are still ice cubes on top, and the temperature won't warm up so quickly after the new year.
When the weather gets hotter, we may need to hire more temporary workers.
The women in the village have no other skills, but they are good at killing fish and mending nets.
A person is driving and thinking quietly, and the wind outside is getting stronger and stronger. It has been cloudy all day today, with thick clouds, biting cold wind, and damp and cold weather.
Fortunately, he would be home soon. Thinking of the warmth and bustle at home, he couldn't help but increase his power and return home as fast as he could.
The closer we get to the port in the town, the more fishing boats are returning. They are all small trawlers and small wooden boats that go back and forth on the same day.
When he arrived outside the village pier, it was not dark yet.
After receiving the letter on the shore, the boy who had been waiting there immediately drove a boat to pick up the goods.
"Brother Dong, you are finally back. We have been waiting all afternoon. The Harvest arrived early in the afternoon. They only said that you had something to do and had to stop in town. I thought it wouldn't take long and you came back soon. Unexpectedly, it took a few seconds.
Hours passed before we waited.”
"What time did the Harvest arrive in the afternoon?"
"About two o'clock, I brought back tens of thousands of catties of toad fish. I also borrowed the scale from Ah Cai on the pier to weigh the goods. Now the workshop is in full swing killing fish. There are also other miscellaneous goods.
There are tens of thousands of kilograms. The ground next door has just been leveled in the past two days, and it has been put to use immediately. There is also a pile of goods at the fish sauce workshop, and everyone is busy working there."
"That's good, just make all arrangements. Come on, there are more than 20,000 kilograms of cargo on this ship. You are there to help pick up the cargo."
"Okay, okay. When Uncle Pei came back, he also said that you had the same amount of goods on your ship. He asked us to arrange manpower in advance to prepare to receive the goods. We kept coming out to see them and didn't dare to leave and go home for dinner. Until now
wait until."
"Well, things in the county have been delayed for a long time. How is my family doing lately? Is there anything big or special happening in the village?"
"There are no big things, but there are a lot of small things to watch, just like singing in a big show."
