Chapter 1240 Departure
Ye Yaodong happened to take advantage of his father being at home, so he asked his father to watch over him at home first.
He had contacted several overseas Chinese from his family in the past two days and had determined a date for delivery in advance. He had to go and deliver the goods.
He ordered the goods from several stores for the same day, saving him from having to make several trips back and forth.
By the way, I also brought some cuttlefish and pickled cuttlefish eggs to Lao Hai.
Lao Hai knew that he was here to deliver goods, so he generously lent him his tractor.
Ye Yaodong was happy to save trouble and did not refuse.
The delivery process went smoothly, but when it came time to settle the bill, he couldn't get the foreign exchange he wanted so much.
Because they are not considered a trading company and do not have import and export rights, they can only settle a small amount of foreign exchange on a friendly basis.
The conditions that need to be met in order to have foreign exchange settlement are quite stringent, and he is confused when he hears what conditions need to be met.
The first batch of orders didn't cost much in the first place, so he thought about it and let it go. He would wait until it became stable and long-term.
I was originally thinking about foreign exchange, but my hope was temporarily dashed, but it is not impossible to work harder after stabilizing.
After finishing this, he made a special trip to the shipyard to make sure that the harvest ship would be completed on June 5, and he felt relieved.
Get it as soon as possible so that he can drive to Zhejiang Province.
However, the weather was not very good in the next few days. It was often sunny during the day, but thunder and lightning came in the evening.
He asked his mother to look at the weather for a day, and it turned out that the weather was not very good that day. It rained continuously all day long, but the day was good. When the time came, he went to drive, but he did not stop in the village.
The ship was larger and had a deeper draft, so he parked directly at the deep-water port in the town. Anyway, in the future, the fresh-carrying ship would have to park at the deep-water port, and then let his family's boat drive over to pick up the goods.
After this matter was done, he felt at ease. However, the weather was good and bad, and his father and the others stayed at home all the time, while he went to the reef to pry abalone in the water during the day.
There were a lot of them, about 10 people, and 4 sets of equipment. The workers were also very efficient at prying those abalones and catching the little green dragon sea cucumbers.
It was the first time for me to go underwater to get these high-quality goods. I was very excited and liked to compare myself with who could get the most in one trip.
After the abalones were almost done, Ye Yaodong thought that it was already the middle of the year and planned to go to Zhejiang Province in advance, but everyone was still a little reluctant.
Although abalone is difficult to get, Xiaoqinglong and sea cucumber can still go into the water to find and get some, and after getting familiar with it underwater, they also like it a little bit, like it in their own back garden.
It was Ye Yaodong who told them that after going to Zhejiang Province, they could salvage sea urchins and get a different experience with higher wages, so everyone wanted to go there quickly.
During this period of time, Ye Yaodong asked Ah to settle the account while salvaging those high-end goods and the ground cages hanging from the bottom, and he also made about 3,000 yuan. This was net profit after deducting the gas and labor wages. It was no worse than working for a month on the Dongsheng.
.
He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it was more profitable to be a capitalist. Since he hired more people, he never went into the water again. He just moved a stool to sit on the boat and spent some money. There were many people who wanted to work for him.
.
After Ye Yaodong determined that the work at home was about to end, he asked Lin Xiuqing to pay all the temporary wages to the workers.
Then he also told her his plan to go to Zhejiang Province.
Lin Xiuqing paused while counting her wages, "Is it so fast? Otherwise, wait until the end of the month? How many days of rest at home should you take?"
"No, it's already July by the end of the month. It's too late. I can catch more sea urchins if I go there in advance. Anyway, I'm not tired. Originally, during this period, I could only go out to sea with others and sit on the boat, doing nothing.
You don’t need to rest when you’re working.”
"Then what are your plans? How many boats are there? Where is dad?"
"I will take the workers who launch the water first, then drive the fresh harvest boat and the trawl boat I have at home."
He was thinking that since he was not at home anyway, the fresh-picking boat was just left at home, so it would be better to leave in advance to avoid having to ask his father to tow the fresh-picking boat there.
Driving a small boat across provinces in the wind and waves, which lasts for more than ten hours on the road, is quite risky. Driving a fresh-harvest boat is much safer, so you should give yourself some added protection.
Moreover, it is safer to drive a fresh harvesting boat with about 10 people.
"Dad, stay home first?"
"Yes, it's useless for him to follow me early anyway. He'll trawl the internet cafe at home first. When the flood season is approaching, I'll call him in advance to inform him and he'll come over again."
"That's fine. I'll let Dad trawl the Dongsheng at home. You'll notify him when the time comes, and he'll take my eldest brother and the others to set off together."
"Well, that's it. I'll go to the farm tomorrow to buy more rice, shell it, and take it with me. The number of people who will bring it this year is no less than last year."
"I understand. Tomorrow I will collect all the fruits and vegetables from the fields that can be stored and bring them to you."
"You have to figure it out. I will also notify others to prepare tomorrow."
I told the villagers a few days ago that people who plan to go there to earn money this year should write their application reports in advance, and he will take them there in advance to help them apply.
After all, he is also the vice-president, so of course he has to take care of these people. If there is any temporary situation, the official will come to him to report it.
Let his mother go to the workshop tomorrow and say a few words, and the whole village should know about it in less than half a day.
After some people heard about it, they began to worry about what they would do after he left.
You know how to go, but if you lack a backbone in your heart, you will be frustrated no matter what.
So the next day, villagers kept asking questions back and forth in front of his house and in his workshop.
Ye Yaodong also repeatedly assured that he just went there in advance to settle down and help everyone apply for fishing licenses. The place was still the same, and the pier was still the same pier.
Moreover, his father would stay and wait for his notification, and then go there with everyone. Only then did the restless mood of the villagers calm down.
Ye Yaodong can also understand. After all, something happened last year, so it is normal for everyone to rely on him more. After they get to know each other every year, it will probably not matter whether he is there or not.
He also told the villagers that he would leave on the 17th and asked them to send the application forms to him before this time. He would not wait if he was late.
He also calculated this time. Father Ye took advantage of the good weather on the Dragon Boat Festival a few days ago and took several boats out to sea at night, but he hasn't come back yet.
He figured he would be back in just the next two or three days. He had reservations about the time he told the villagers.
He had to wait until his father came back and talk to him before he could leave. It just so happened that it took time to prepare things.
In the past two days, he has been busy with setting off, never touching the ground, and his friends have all gone to sea, so he can only say a few words in the evening.
Finally, he waited until his father came back at noon on the 18th, and after he had made an agreement with his father, he could set off with peace of mind.
June 17th, which falls on the 11th day of the fifth lunar month, was originally an auspicious day for traveling. He had predicted it in advance. However, his father came back one day late, so he could only set off one day later.
Although the 19th is not an auspicious day for travel, it will not be a bad day, as long as nothing is unfavorable.
In fact, the 20th was also an auspicious day for traveling, but he didn't want to wait any longer for this day. He had already been delayed for two days waiting for his father to come back.
For being two days late, Ye's father was scolded by the old lady and Ye's mother, and they took turns scolding him for two days.
When he left before dawn in the early morning, he could still hear his father complaining as he was flanked by two women.
"To make a lot of money, you have to look forward to a good life. It's all your fault..."
The old lady asked Ye Mu worriedly, "Are you sure the date is correct? Is today a good day?"
"It's not as good as the National Day, but today is just so-so. It would be better if it were a day later. We have to travel a long way, so what does it matter if we wait for an extra day or a good day? We have been waiting for several days anyway."
"As long as it's not bad, I was just waiting for him to wait..."
Father Ye is too lazy to pay attention to them, what does it have to do with him?
Is he capable of pinching and calculating, or what?
He didn't tell him in advance, so how did he know he would come back early?
I only knew that Dongzi was going to go early, but how could I know which day he was going to go in advance?
But he also knew not to say it, and the more they talked about it, the more excited they became. One was a sweetheart, and the other was extremely proud of his current skills. He kept talking about it every day, counting the days and hours, and the bad luck he had calculated.
Extremely confident.
He wanted to ask her if she could figure out when he would be mad to death?
Ye Yaodong drove a small trawler to the deep-water port in the town to find his own fresh-harvesting ship, and then asked everyone who was stunned to move all the supplies on the ship to the fresh-harvesting ship.
After all, the small trawler only has an empty deck, and the small two square meters of space can't even store a few bags of rice and oil.
Now they are all piled on the deck, along with many tools, bamboo baskets, large barrels and small buckets, etc. There are a dozen workers on the ship itself, and there is little room for everyone to stand.
It takes more than ten hours to drive along the way. It doesn't matter if we stand on the edge and get wet from the waves, but it will affect the supplies.
Although he also put a layer of nylon cloth underneath, it was not of much use. He brought too many things. It would be better to move to the storage space of the fresh-collecting ship to avoid the wind, sun, rain, forest and waves.
"Holy shit! Is this also the boss's ship?"
"Boss, are you hiding it too closely? There is such a big ship!"
"Damn it, I was wondering how to get to the town. I asked A Dong and I knew there was such a big surprise!"
"It's so awesome, so majestic, such a big ship!"
"It's amazing. I heard two days ago that you have another boat that is more than 30 meters long. I thought it was just a rumor and people who didn't know were bragging. It turns out it is real."
"I heard it too, but last year I heard someone rumored that you had a boat over 30 meters long, so I didn't take it seriously. I didn't even see the shadow. I thought it was all nonsense."
"I thought I was really going to sail on this small boat, but it turned out there was a big boat waiting here, hahaha..."
…
Ye Yaodong was all shocked as he listened to what they said to each other. He kept talking like a machine gun and quickly stopped them.
"Stop talking, quickly move the supplies on the ship and move them here. We have to hurry up and set off. It's almost dawn."
"Coming, coming, right away..."
Everyone hurriedly climbed over, half of them went over, and half of them stood still so that they could be moved to the other side to be picked up.
There were so many people that the goods piled up on the entire deck were moved in just ten minutes, and you couldn't even see it on the fresh food collection ship. They were all loaded into the fish warehouse and the cargo warehouse. The deck was clean and still the same.
open.
Only after everyone had finished transporting the cargo did they realize that this ship seemed different from other ships.
"Boss, your new ship is so empty. Is there something missing?"
"You idiot, why don't you have a net hoist? What about cranes?"
"This is a fresh-harvesting boat. I specially customized it to receive goods, so it is different from other fishing boats. You guys wait here while I go to replenish the diesel."
After Ye Yaodong finished speaking, he left them behind and left them to discuss on the boat.
After he replenished his supply of diesel, he set off again from the town.
"Brother Dong, if you build a fresh-harvest boat, do you want to collect the goods yourself in the future?"
"What about your other ships?"
"Boss, then you have another boat, do you have to hire someone again, me, me, me..."
Ye Yaodong said with a smile: "Then it depends on your performance in the next period. If you perform well, you will be given priority to stay. Then you will be paid monthly like the people on the Dongsheng."
After saying these words, he walked to the cockpit, leaving everyone excited.
"Haha, I said we will definitely get priority."
"It's amazing. Now that we have built such a big fresh harvesting ship, will we be able to do it again in the future?"
"In the future we will be able to form a large fleet."
"There will definitely be a bigger ship in two years. Adong's ships are getting bigger and bigger every year..."
