Ye Yaodong put the person down and took off the sweet potato vine earrings on his ears that were connected to the skin section by section. He also took off the necklace and gave it to Lin Xiuqing together.
"Give it to you."
"I don't want it."
Ye Xiaoxi stood on tiptoes to pull Ye Yaodong, "I want it, give it to me, give it to me, I'll wear it."
Ye Yaodong had no choice but to hang the earrings on her ears and put the necklace around her neck.
She was so beautiful that she kept shaking her head, running around the room like a butterfly, and standing on tiptoes to get the mirror hanging on the wall.
He had no choice but to smile and take down the mirror for her so that she could take a good look at it.
"Do you think you are beautiful?"
Ye Xiaoxi grinned and nodded happily, "Yeah!"
"Smell, hurry up and wash your hands and eat." Lin Xiuqing smiled, took out all the food in the pot, and asked Ye Yaodong to call the other two boys back.
He had no choice but to curse and walk out again, "Where are you? You don't even know when to come back for meals. When you come back, you have to break their legs. They run around every day without seeing anyone. They are busier than me, and I don't even see them."
Looking at their figures..."
Before he could go out and scream like a man hanging for his life, two children ran past him on both sides like a gust of wind, one on each side.
He looked left and right, and both of them had already run into the house.
"You guys can run fast."
Just as he was about to enter the house together, Ye Chengjiang shouted at the door of the courtyard, "Uncle...my father asked me to bring you a bowl of chicken soup..."
Ye Yaodong had no choice but to go out and pick it up, carry it into the house and put it on Ye Xiaoxi's place.
"Dad, why are you giving it all to your sister?"
"She went to the next door to ask for it on her own initiative."
The old lady smiled and said, "It's already simmering in the pot. Let's simmer it for a few more hours and then feed it to you guys after you go to bed at night."
The two brothers had no objection.
After eating, Ye Yaodong went to the house next door to find Ye Yaohua, and then they went to A Guang's house to settle accounts together.
As soon as he arrived at the door of his house, he saw a group of puppies milling around the door. Pei Yu squatted there with one in her arms.
"I asked why there were so few dogs in my family. There were obviously two litters of more than a dozen pups, but in the end there were only six or seven left."
"When we were sitting at the door, didn't the two little ones share one with each other? Some time ago, the puppies were one month old, so my mother came over with a basket. Anyway, you have so many at home, so I can help you.
Share a little."
"Don't think that because I have so many dogs, they are so popular."
"Let's settle the accounts first. After settling the accounts of the Harvest, we still have to settle the accounts of our other ships."
"Me too."
The Harvest boat went to Zhejiang Province and the harvest was also very good. Although it took a month in total, the actual number of fishing days was only half a month, but it still earned more than 16,000 yuan in this half month.
Excluding labor, gas, transportation fees, daily expenses, and money for redeeming people, I still earned more than 11,800.
Ye Yaodong accounted for 30% and divided 3546. Before Uncle Zheng came back, his share of the money was deposited with Father Pei. When he came back, his share of the money would be given to him.
After settling the accounts, he took a look at Ye Huimei and the twins and immediately went home.
Because she was giving birth to twins, Ye's mother was worried that it would hurt her body and she would have to sit for half a month longer during confinement, so Ye Huimei still lay on the bed.
When he returned home immediately, several people were already sitting in front of his house chatting with his parents and eldest brother, all waiting for him to come back to settle accounts.
As soon as he saw him and his second brother coming back, he stood up immediately.
"Dongzi is back..."
"It's time to settle the accounts..."
Ye Yaodong looked at them and said hello with a smile, but he thought in his heart that there were only a few ships and there were people waiting for him to settle accounts at the door. If there were more ships, then if there were more ships to settle accounts every month, there would be a bunch of people sitting in front of his door.
People waiting in line?
When he came back, he also brought back the manifests of his ships from Aguang, but others also brought their own manifests.
After everyone followed him into the house, they took out their own bills of goods, and some even put the money they brought together on the table.
"It's such a hurry. I can settle the accounts before paying for it in time, haha~" Ye Yaodong said jokingly.
"You have to pay early and pay late. You have to pay for it anyway. This trip is all thanks to you, otherwise I wouldn't be able to make so much money."
"Yes, everyone has to be put in jail or shot. Fortunately, everyone listened to you at that time. Only then can you make money and come back safely."
"I also brought the money over. I did the calculations at home. Come over here and let's do the calculations again. It happens to be the beginning of the month. I'll take a break in the past few days. I'll go to sea to trawl in two days. The next calculation will be at the end of the month."
"Haha, I just rented a boat last month, and this month I can share the money for a boat. Although I took a little risk, I also made a lot of money. I didn't expect that a trip to Zhejiang Province could make so much money. It's all thanks to you.
Fortunately, from now on we can eat meat every day at home."
Ye Yaodong said politely: "Everyone can help you with your relatives, but in the end you have to rely on yourself. If you work harder, you can make a fortune."
After saying that, he found all their cargo lists, and then checked the two lists. If there was no problem, he asked Ah Qing to count them one by one.
And he also prepared them all, and took the money that he put on the table and counted it first.
To speed up efficiency, they have already calculated the money in advance anyway, and now they are just checking the calculation.
No problem, I got it right away.
Despite the large number of orders here, there are actually only three boats, one of which belongs to his father. He rented out 5 boats, but only two came back, and his father's old boat.
For the two boats he rented out, he didn't care about the expenses or wages, let alone the redemption fees. He would pay 50-50 according to the bill of sale after deducting the agency fee, so the income was very considerable.
These boats join forces with other fishing boats to come back and sell goods in turn. Sometimes they can share more than 300 yuan a day when the price is low, and more than 500 yuan when the price is high.
After half a month, each boat had a profit of 6,000 to 7,000 yuan. He directly took half of it, and each boat could take 3,000 to 4,000 yuan.
As for the remaining three or four thousand, the ship's boss had to pay for the oil and then the workers' wages, and the redemption money had to be deducted for this trip.
Fortunately, they don’t need to hire a lot of people on their ship. Their own family members, sons, nephews, etc. can carry them. It doesn’t cost much to redeem people, wages, food and drink, and they can only have two or three thousand left in hand.
It's more valuable than any work they do.
In the past, if they were asked to do casual labor, they would not be able to earn two or three thousand in two years. Now, they can earn it within a month after renting the boat, so everyone is extremely satisfied, and it is extremely pleasant to come over to settle accounts, and they also speak nicely.
"This money has been paid in advance, and all the money used to redeem people is ours. See if that's right..."
Ye Yaodong came over and took a look at Ah Qing's account, and nodded, "Yes, anyway, I don't care about any expenses, and I take half of the money from the sales. This is also the rule agreed at the beginning."
Father Ye also grinned, standing aside and smiling as he watched Mother Ye counting the money in her hands.
"Everyone has gained a lot from this trip. In fact, being able to come back safely is the biggest gain. It's great that you can also earn money by the way. You should be able to earn several thousand yuan from this trip, and you can save it until the second half of the year."
It’s a lot, and it’s better than the days before without a boat.”
"That's for sure, so to live by the sea, you still have to have someone to eat. Look at how fast you can make money after you have a boat. No wonder Dongzi is making more and more, and your family's life is becoming more and more prosperous.
"
"Do it slowly, you can do it too."
Ye Yaodong counted the money once, and Lin Xiu counted the money again after finishing the calculation. After there was no problem, everyone said a few more polite words before sending everyone out, leaving only their family.
Father Ye was smiling so hard, "I didn't expect that old boat to be able to earn so much money now. Fortunately, it didn't fall apart at the critical moment."
Ye Mu was also very happy, "I can rely on this boat to support myself in my old age."
Ye Yaodong also took out the money that Aguang's family had just settled and put it on the table for Aqing. "The 30% share of the harvest number, 3546, you count it and put it away together."
Mother Ye looked surprised, "How can you get so much for the three achievements? That boat makes so much money!"
"This is still 30% of the net income after deducting fuel, labor, and all other expenses."
"It's a pity that your eldest brother was stupid and didn't know how to get a share."
"Everyone has his or her own ambitions. Who knows how much money you can earn in the beginning? You only know how much money you have to spend."
"Now that you have all your capital back, you can still make a lot of money, and you will still have money to share in the future. I guess your eldest brother is going to regret it."
"There's not much to say. Anyway, he has his own boat now. He doesn't have the Harvest. We have also joined forces to get one. Anyway, we will get it next year."
"That's different. My in-laws' boat is just making money..."
Father Ye said: "There is nothing to say. It has been so long. What are you talking about? If you have said it and there is no regret medicine, who will give him another share?"
"I just feel a pity."
"It's nothing to be sorry about. The boss didn't earn it, but Dongzi did. Whatever he didn't ask for at the time, Dongzi got it all, and the wealth didn't go to outsiders."
Mother Ye glared at him and said nothing.
Ye Yaodong and Lin Xiuqing ignored the conversation between the two elders and started a new round of counting money.
The dividends from the first two ships had already been calculated. Lin Xiuqing was counting the money that had just been taken out, while Ye Yaodong was there using a calculator to calculate the total.
"A total of 10,221 yuan and 36 cents. The three ships received exactly 10,000 yuan. Unfortunately, there are still three ships that have not returned. When those three ships return, they will probably receive another 10,000 yuan."
"My dear!" Mother Ye exclaimed.
"This money looks so good, doesn't it? You can get 20,000 yuan just from the share of these boats?"
"Otherwise, why would I buy so many ships? Isn't it just to get some shares?"
If it weren't for the fact that this year's risk is too great and not as good as last year, it would have doubled, and it would have been more than 20,000.
After Lin Xiu cleared the money, she started sorting it out again with a smile on her face. She singled out the big group, put the money in categories, and then took it to the house to put it away.
Mother Ye sighed, "Now you really don't have to worry about it for the rest of your life. There are so many ships, just like today..."
"Stop dreaming, don't think that such good things will always happen. To make money, you have to have the right time, right place and right people."
"What?"
"What you can earn this year may not be what you will earn next year, let alone expect to earn like this every year. Who can predict natural disasters and man-made disasters? If you can earn a sum, it is a sum."
Father Ye nodded in agreement, "Yes, safety is the most important thing. Making more or less depends on your life."
Mother Ye glared at him and said, "Have you ever experienced a life-and-death experience and come to a complete enlightenment? You are full of great truths."
Father Ye was so angry that he wanted to strangle her to death.
"Go home." Mother Ye hugged the money and went out first.
Father Ye originally wanted to have a chat with Ye Yaodong, but now he followed her closely, planning to go home and settle the accounts with her again, and argue some more.
Lin Xiuqing watched them both go out before saying, "Your mother has a really bad mouth."
"Be worse to others, don't worry about them. I did the accounting at night, can we have more than 180,000 on hand now?"
"right."
Ye Yaodong rubbed his hands back and forth, "What should I do? I have so much money in my hands."
Lin Xiuqing thought about it and said quickly: "Don't bother, don't buy boats, we have enough boats, you just bought 6, and there are still so many undelivered in the factory."
"I won't buy it. It's enough. It's enough for the time being. Just the share of a dozen boats will be a huge sum every year."
"right."
"Tomorrow I will go to the city to take a look at the land I bought and ask someone to level it first. If possible, let's buy a few more shops. Anyway, there are never too many shops on the land. This is
The experience passed down by our ancestors for five thousand years."
"How can there be such a good deal..."
"Yes, I almost forgot. You have to change your household registration and settle in that village. You have to make up for it. Let's move you and the children there. When the children are older, they will be sent to the city to study. Educational resources
Better."
Ye Yaodong thought it made sense, "Let's do it this way. Either we don't go to the city tomorrow, and we go to the village committee first to get a certification application form, and then I won't move. I will go to the village committee to donate the two boats."
Let’s talk about it…”
"Why do you want to move my and my child's household registration to the city? That doesn't mean it will become a city household registration..."
"No, it's not an urban household registration, it's a rural household registration. That's a rural area. It's just that for us outsiders, it's not a good idea to buy in that village. We have to settle down anyway. It's good to be considered a local talent in the village. Your eldest brother also needs to settle there.
I don’t know if they have settled in the border village, I’ll go over and ask the day after tomorrow.”
Lin Xiuqing frowned and thought about this matter, but Ye Yaodong didn't care about her anymore, but thought about how to spend nearly 200,000 yuan?
But after thinking about it, I feel like there is nothing worth spending money on.
Land is not that easy to buy, and it is not yet time to buy a house. It is even less possible to buy a street. The streets in the city are filled with low-rise houses for urban residents to live in.
After much deliberation, he could only invest in buying a boat. He didn't know anything else, but now that he had enough boats, he might as well let them go. After a few years, the fishing boats would be upgraded to steel fishing boats, and then he would replace them altogether.
, it just so happens that you can eliminate a batch of old ships and sell them cheaply when you earn enough.
The couple sat there, thinking about their own things, and became quiet for a while.
"Since we have bought all the land, can we not move it?" Lin Xiuqing was still struggling with this.
"Didn't I tell you? I'm afraid it won't be good if I'm not a local. If there are any disputes in the future, it won't affect you anyway, and I won't ask you to come over. Don't worry about it, go out to enjoy the cool air, it's very hot in the house."
The back door is closed, the front door is open, and there is a window on the side, so not much wind can come in.
Ye Yaodong moved a stool to enjoy the cool air outside. He didn't want to think about how his family's savings would be spent. It was only 85 years old anyway, so why bother? You can continue to save more money.
There was a cool breeze in the summer night, and a lot of people were sitting at the door to enjoy the cool air. They gathered in twos and threes to chat. Some people watched him move a stool over and pulled him to ask questions.
He also asked these people by the way if anyone from Zhejiang Province had called back. They all shook their heads and said that they were probably busy and it would be dark after they finished their work.
Thinking about it, it's very possible, after all, they were like this before.
There is no news now, which is good news.
While enjoying the shade, three more people came over to buy a small wooden boat. He happily sold it at a 20% discount and asked them to come back tomorrow morning to pay and go to the beach to sail the boat.
Early the next morning, after successfully selling the three boats, he went to the village committee again, preparing to dispose of the promised boats. It happened that the village committee was there yesterday and told him to go there today.
The cadres of the village committee looked quite relaxed. They all moved stools and sat in the shade to talk. When they saw him coming, they immediately waved to him.
"A-Dong is here? Wait, sit, sit, you're here quite early. I thought you would have to be busy for a few days."
"We don't need to be busy for a few days. The workers we hired are not for a living. Yesterday afternoon we called people on the boat and got everything done. I just happened to come to the village committee when I had free time today."
"You are a very busy person now. I have to make time to find you."
"If so, if you asked me to come here yesterday, wouldn't I come right away? How are you doing with the kelp?"
"It's only been a month, and we're still busy with the ropes. But we have already decided on the seedlings. We will go to their village to get the seedlings when the seedlings are picked. That's it for this year. We don't have the conditions to do it at the beginning. If we wait until next year,
If we can do it, we will build a nursery ourselves."
Ye Yaodong nodded, as long as they have a plan.
"My boat came back the day before yesterday, and we agreed to donate two pieces to our kelp farming industry. If you have time, go to the pier now. While the sun is not bright in the morning, you can bring your brushes to mark them, and we will
Once this is done, it will avoid delaying your kelp production, otherwise it will be too hot to death later."
"Okay, okay, we are just waiting for your words."
The village cadres all smiled when they saw how straightforward he was and talked about this as soon as he came.
"I heard that you bought several boats and renovated them at the shipyard?"
"Yeah, I don't know when I can drive it back. I'll depend on them for the rest of my life."
"That's awesome. Now we can no longer call you Xianyudong. From now on, we have to call you Shipwangdong."
"Aha... Hahaha, how do you know about Ship Wangdong?" Ye Yaodong sounded embarrassed. After all, he had proclaimed himself Ship Wangdong at home in the beginning.
"Forgot who to listen to?"
"There are only a dozen or so ships. How can I be embarrassed to let people call me by this name? If I tell people about it, I will laugh to death."
"What do you mean there are only a dozen? There are not as many people and boats as you in the several villages combined. Our village is also very famous now because of you."
"It's so careless. You have to earn your reputation by yourself."
Ye Yaodong followed these old men while walking and chatting towards the seaside. The large number of fishing boats parked on the shore were all returned from Zhejiang Province. The other fishermen were going to sea as usual, so they were the only ones resting there.
His small wooden boat is still tied to the back of the trawler. Except for the five boats that have been bought one after another, the ropes have been untied and driven away by others, and the rest are still floating there with the waves.
After letting those people pick two at random, he also untied the corresponding ropes and rowed the boat to the shore so that they could mark them with brushes.
Once it's marked, it's no longer his.
Secretary Chen asked curiously: "Didn't you say you have 10 boats? Why are there only 5 left?"
"It's sold. I sold 5 of them in just two days after I came back. Now I donate two more and there are only three left. I think they will all be sold out in two days."
"Then you won't sail this boat to Zhejiang Province next year? I heard people say that you make a lot of money from these boats. You can salvage the boats all day long and make a lot of money."
"Let's talk about next year. Can I tie all these boats to the beach? I can't manage so many fishing boats. Who will take care of these small boats? Just sell them."
"That's right. You have many boats now, so why don't you need these few small boats?"
"After this is done, let's go back and talk about your kelp planting."
Ye Yaodong shook his collar and walked back and forth to the pier twice. He was already sweating profusely. He was sweating every time he moved in the summer. It was not suitable to go out at all. If he hadn't just come back and didn't do a lot of things, he really wanted to relax.
Lie comfortably at home.
After following them back to the village committee, I felt a little cooler after sitting under a big tree.
They sat down and chatted until noon. They got up and were about to go out, but they heard the phone ringing in the room.
Ye Yaodong's heart moved, wondering if it might be a call from someone who stayed there, so he followed him to answer the call.
"It's Ah Sheng...go and call Ah Sheng's wife to answer the phone, and Ah Shu's wife, Ah Jun's wife..."
As soon as he heard it was Asheng, he immediately picked up the phone, "Brother Asheng? I'm Dongzi..."
Before Ye Yaosheng's wife arrived, he never hung up the phone and kept asking Ye Yaosheng on the phone about the situation there.
He didn't give the phone to his wife until someone arrived.
It turned out that it was raining heavily there today, so he came back temporarily, and Ye Yaosheng had time to call to report that he was safe. When he called, there were many voices around him, all from the village, and they were all queuing up.
Call back soon.
According to what Ye Yaosheng just said, the sea was not peaceful in the past two days when they came back. There were several conflicts, but they restrained themselves and did not dare to fight. At most, they separated after a few curses.
Moreover, the number of jellyfish has also decreased, and there are many more boats. After some locals were redeemed, their boats were also taken back, and their fishing boats that were originally detained seemed to have been bought by locals and used for fishing.
.
So now every day at one or two o'clock in the afternoon, everything is gone, and they have to search for it on the sea.
Searching by yourself on the sea is the safest, because the fishing boats are widely distributed and not so concentrated. However, correspondingly, their income has been reduced by nearly half in the past two days.
The fishing license applied for has not been issued yet, but the application form has been filled out. There is also a boat from the Maritime Safety Administration on the sea. However, this boat cannot stay in the trench all day long. At most, it can go out for a walk every day.
I went back, so the conflicts that should have arisen still arose.
But fortunately, the officials use loudspeakers to announce on the pier every day that fighting and shooting are strictly prohibited, and serious cases will be shot. They advocate peaceful fishing, peaceful coexistence, and peaceful coexistence...
There are still some gains after implementing a series of policies, at least when conflicts arise, there will be some hesitation.
He stood at the door and listened to Asheng's wife's nagging questions. After scolding him for not coming back with them, he told him to come back safely and told him to come back early and so on...
By the way, I also asked about writing an IOU. She got so excited that she slammed the table a few times. The women next to her were impatient and asked her to keep the conversation short. They were still waiting to answer the phone.
The village cadre was also curious about the situation there, and after he came out after answering the phone, he also asked him what Asheng had said.
"It's nothing. It's just that there has been a series of remedial policies over there. Although there are conflicts now, luckily they won't be too serious. We all have concerns. We can only hit them a few times, and they won't be beaten to death."
"It was too scary, there was a fight, and there are not many people left there now..."
"A fight is considered a good thing. There was no time during the flood season where we didn't fight anyone, and there was no time when two villages didn't get into a noisy fight or two. As long as they didn't get killed, didn't make a big fuss, and didn't get caught, then it's still considered a good thing.
OK."
Having said this, Ye Yaodong asked them again, "Those people who came to our village yesterday were followed by the police. Then, did they all go directly to the border defense station?"
"Isn't it? Hundreds of people surrounded the two police officers along the way and sent them directly to the border guard station. The two police officers heard that they were in such a panic that they had no hats and no shoes, and then a few
Hundreds of people gathered around the gate of the border station, crying and begging, to let them get the person back."
"The border defense stations are now two in size. I heard that it is miserable. From yesterday to today, there have been many people at the door. A large number of people have taken turns to block the door, kneeling, crying and making noises. But there are so many people.
There are hundreds of people, and even the defense station can only comfort them and say they will try their best," Secretary Chen said.
Ye Yaodong smiled and felt relieved, "I'm not afraid of meat on a knife, I'm just afraid of this. And if the law doesn't punish the public, it's impossible to arrest all hundreds of people. Meat on a knife is unreasonable and unreasonable.
Those who stand out can be caught and killed to scare other monkeys. Now the border defense station doesn’t dare to be tough and can only do its best.”
"Anyway, it's a good thing our village didn't come to us, otherwise it would have been really difficult." The village chief was also thankful there.
"It depends on how they solve it. It's none of our business anyway."
Secretary Chen: "Well, let's listen to the news later and take a look. It's not possible to block the door all the time. I guess we still need to arrest two people and give a warning."
Village Chief: "No, arresting two people at this time and warning them will only cause public outrage. There are hundreds of people, so we can only appease them. Just watch and wait for news."
"Fortunately, two police officers were called over, so we don't need to worry."
Chapter completed!
