Chapter 1284 Snowing

He quickly stood up and asked, "Why are you here? Have you eaten? Do you want to eat something?"
"I've eaten, no need."
"It's a loan, is there anything else?"
"It's not about a loan. I just want to ask you if you want to make a deposit. The interest rate is very high!"
"Deposits? You do both loans and deposits. Your business volume is quite large, right?"
Shen Ming'e chuckled, "It's not that the president wants me to promote it, otherwise few people would go to the bank to deposit money."
"I already borrowed 200,000 yuan from the bank..."
"Deposits are deposits, and loans are loans. Your money will definitely not be deducted to equalize the loan."
"You know, I am not from the local area. I will go home next month. There is no need to deposit it in the bank here. It is not easy to withdraw money from other places, let alone cross banks and add other places. I am too lazy to bother."
"You're going home next month? Not coming?" Shen Ming'e widened her eyes in surprise.
"I'm going home to celebrate the New Year. My boat is still in your shipyard, and the money has been transferred to the public account. I will crawl over next year."
"Haha, isn't that okay? You'll come again next year anyway. You can deposit it directly into the bank. If you come to sail next year, you can still withdraw the money. The interest earned on depositing for a year will be much longer."
"I don't have any money to save. I spent 100,000 yuan to buy that cargo ship, and I borrowed more than 30,000 yuan from others to get it together. How can I save any money? I used all my earnings to pay back the money."
"oh."
"Or, you can lend me a little more and I can deposit it and earn the interest?"
"What good things are you thinking of?" She raised her voice a little higher.
Ye Yaodong spread his hands, "Then there's no other way. I don't have any money, and I can't save it even if I want to. You can either ask other people? Or wait until next year when I get the boat, earn more, and then save it?"
"Forget it, I still think that you have so many ships. It's not safe to keep the money around. It would be better to deposit it in the bank."
"Then you wait for me to earn more, wait for me to earn more, and then deposit it into your bank."
Depositing in a bank sounds safe, but there are too many hidden dangers. Nowadays, it is not connected nationwide, so the procedures are very troublesome.
Moreover, the National Internet Network can transfer the money internally, let alone now? Ten or twenty thousand is not a small amount, and he still has hundreds of thousands. When the employee runs away, who will he ask to compensate?
And he will go home next month. For such a small amount of interest, it is not necessary to save for a month.
A large box of money has to be carried around, deposited in and taken out, how much care should be taken?
The bank doesn't find it troublesome to count the money, but he finds it troublesome to transfer it.
He didn't even carry any change with him, just because he was afraid of trouble. He was in a foreign country and it was better to keep a low profile.
Who knows whether the person you meet is a human or a ghost.
Hundreds of thousands is enough to buy the lives of all of them, so he might as well keep it a secret.
It doesn't matter if you owe money in a high-profile manner, it doesn't matter if you exaggerate it so that everyone knows about it, but if you make a lot of money, you still have to keep it a secret.
When Shen Ming'e heard what he said, she could only believe that he didn't have much money on hand and didn't need to save it, so she had to return without success.
"Boss, why don't you deposit it directly in the bank, which is safer?"
"What to save? I want to use it to pay the balance of the cargo ship. The renovation of the cargo ship will be completed by the end of the month. I don't have to pay for it? I will go home immediately next month, so there is no need to worry."
"That's right. I won't be able to catch the Winter Solstice when I go back next month. I wonder if I can catch the Laba Festival."
"We'll see when the time comes. There's no extravagance about eating Laba. If you stay a few more days, you can get a few more days of salary."
"I miss home, I haven't been out for a long time..."
Ye Yaodong also told them that he wanted to go back. It was too lonely here, there were no dogs, and only the smell of fish was familiar.
But now is the time for him to make a lot of money, and everyone is here, so he definitely can't just go back like this.
No matter what, you have to earn the money you should earn before you can happily take people back.
After he comforted and encouraged everyone, he asked them to hold on and the time passed quickly.
In the afternoon, it was time for the Chamber of Commerce to meet again. They agreed to hold a meeting every week at a fixed time and location, and it was not mandatory.
If you are at home, you can go there for a meeting, chat, get acquainted, and get to know new members by the way.
If you are not at home, going to sea or other places, you can wait until the next meeting. Everyone has to make money, and not everyone will be there every time.
After nearly two months of development, they already have more than 30 members, but for various reasons, only a dozen showed up.
Anyway, every time there is a new member, Ye Yaodong has to be pulled out for a walk, 4 times a month, and he is basically there two or three times, which is considered relatively frequent.
Whoever asked him to collect fresh goods would only go out every two or three days to collect and sell goods at a high frequency.
And he also became very familiar with the people in the Chamber of Commerce, and he had to chat for a while every time he met.
To his surprise, this time he actually said something.
He actually said that he wanted to seek approval from the government to buy a piece of land and build a serious chamber of commerce office, lest the number of people increase and the rental house of Boss Xida would be unable to move around.
If there is a dedicated official office and it is approved by the government, it will be more standardized and more effective.
Ye Yaodong also thinks it makes sense. After all, this is a rental house where Boss Xida lives temporarily. He can't let others rent it all the time. There are so many members anyway.
Moreover, these people who join the association are either businessmen or ship bosses. They all have some wealth, and they must have made a lot of money in the past few months.
If you don't have enough money, a hundred and eighty yuan per person will be enough.
As he was thinking this, Boss Xida happened to say the same thing.
"Everyone has some wealth. I believe that if one person contributes more than a hundred yuan, it is not a big problem for everyone. Now that they have joined our big family, I think everyone must hope that our big family will get better and better."
"If we can apply to the government to buy a piece of land and put up the sign of the Chamber of Commerce, it will mean that we are recognized by the government. Then we will see if we can register a Wenzhou Chamber of Commerce with the government like Comrade Ye Yaodong did.
This way we will be standardized and legal."
"I believe you won't have any big objections to the money. I just want you to think about whether it is necessary and whether you can support it."
"My place is indeed a bit shabby. We have more than 30 members now. If they all come, we won't be able to sit in the room."
"Of course, if we grant a piece of land to the government to build a chamber of commerce, the land and the chamber of commerce will definitely not belong to me. It will definitely belong to everyone and the collective. Everyone can rest assured about this."
"I say all this because I hope that everyone can support each other, go further and further here, make more money, and make a fortune safely. You can discuss it first."
After Jin Laixi said these words, he let everyone discuss it among themselves, then came to his side and explained to him why he was not informed in advance.
I went to look for him two days ago, but he went to sea, and then he also went to nearby towns to trade in the past two days.
Ye Yaodong only said that it didn't matter. It didn't matter whether he told him or not. He never cared about it anyway. He was not a real Wen city person. He could only be regarded as half of it. He could just be a mascot.
But he will definitely pay for the money that should be paid, which is only a hundred yuan, and he has his own chamber of commerce, which is a major benefit, and it is a waste of land.
Regardless of whether it can be developed or not, if the Chamber of Commerce has a piece of land under its name, it is a huge bargain, and the foundation for development is immediately there.
So he immediately answered, "Boss Xida is absolutely right. I absolutely support you. If the Chamber of Commerce has land under its name, it will be a great thing for everyone."
"Furthermore, if the government approves it, it will be support. We can be considered a regular army, but when we apply, we have to be nice."
"For example, now that our country is developing its economy and supporting self-employed businesses, it will be more conducive to development for us businessmen to join a group. And after we businessmen develop in a group, we will definitely support the government more."
"This is also a good thing for their local government. If we work together, they can manage us better."
Jin Laixi gave him a thumbs up, "I knew it would be right to tell you. Why don't you go and have a word with the big guy?"
"Alright."
"Let me help you tell me. Everyone must be fine, and they will definitely not be reluctant to pay. It's just a hundred yuan. I'm probably hesitant about whether it's worth spending the money and whether it's useful? After all, most of them have just joined the membership.
, it’s not that bad yet, but we actually have to pay again. Some people who are not so familiar with us must have some ideas.”
"That's the truth."
Jin Laixi nodded and said loudly, asking everyone to be quiet.
"Listen to what Vice Chairman Ye Yaodong has to say. I just discussed it with him. He has some good ideas, so let him talk about it."
Ye Yaodong waited for him to finish, then stood up and repeated the point he had just made to Jin Laixi.
And I also said a few words, after the Chamber of Commerce has independent land, it will be more cohesive for everyone, and the Chamber of Commerce will become stronger.
At the same time, I also mentioned that you can choose a financial institution to keep accounts specifically and remember where each income is spent.
If there are no daily expenses, he recommends depositing the money in the bank. The interest rates of current banks are also quite high, and the bank will also have records of every expenditure.
This is also a guarantee for everyone.
When everyone heard what he said, they felt that it was much more reliable than what Jin Laixi said just now.
At least the membership fees and the money everyone pays are deposited in the bank, with records that can be checked, rather than in the hands of an individual.
We are not afraid of paying, but we are afraid that paying money will give someone an advantage.
Ye Yaodong also suddenly thought of Shen Ming'e asking him to make a deposit in the morning. It happened that after everyone collected funds and recorded the accounts, they could hand the money to the bank first.
At present, the membership fees are all paid to Jin Laixi. At the beginning, there were only a few people and not much money, so everyone must have no opinions. When they come back to their senses later, they will all have ideas.
It would be better to open an account at a separate chamber of commerce and deposit in it.
By the time he finished speaking, more people nodded and agreed.
People who were hesitant at first also followed the crowd.
Most people agree, and if the objections are muted, they basically have no objections and just follow the crowd. After all, for everyone here, they really don’t have much money.
Those who can recommend each other to join the Chamber of Commerce may not be said to be from households worth ten thousand yuan, but in the environment of Zhou City, they are pretty much the same.
After hearing that there were no objections, Ye Yaodong also said, "In the future, everyone will be happy for today's decision. Within five years, it will definitely make you feel that it was worth it."
Preparations have begun for the international fishery center here. Once it is built, it will only develop at a faster rate.
When the time comes, there will only be more and more trade around the aquatic product center, the shops around it will definitely spring up like bamboo shoots after a spring rain, and the land will definitely become more and more valuable, and it will be speculated faster.
It's only 1986 now. If it's 5 years, it would be 91. The economy is getting better and better, and it's easier to make money.
Just as he was about to sit down, someone said, "I only entered because I heard that the president of our fishery association was there. Since you said it, I believe you."
Ye Yaodong couldn't understand the Wenshi dialect this man spoke. Jin Laixi translated for him, and then he stood up and said, "Don't worry, as long as the government can approve it, it's definitely a good thing."
He thought for a moment and then said: "I'm not afraid to tell you. I also bought a piece of land here. It's not too small. As for where I bought it, I won't go into detail. I bought it in my own name. I'm optimistic about this place."
With the development of the country, buying a house or land will definitely not make you lose money.”
As soon as he said this, everyone started whispering again.
Even Jin Laixi was curious and asked him why he bought the land.
"I am optimistic about the future development, so if you say you want to buy a small piece of land in the name of a chamber of commerce and build a chamber of commerce, I will support it. If possible, I also think it would be better if you buy a bigger one, and then it will be a chamber of commerce.
industry!”
"Like this..."
"You can do the math yourself. First find a place, and then negotiate with the government. After setting the price, we can then discuss how much we will crowdfund. What I mean is that as long as it is within the urban area, it can be done anywhere. It doesn't matter if it's a bit off.
If you buy big, just buy big, you won’t lose money no matter what.”
It looks a little biased now, but it won’t be biased in the future!
Now that I think it is expensive, I will buy less in the future.
"Okay, everyone has agreed anyway. Next, I will find a few people to take advantage of our free time, and we will go around together. Since you can buy and sell individually, we should be able to do it as a collective."
"Then I don't know. You can ask."
Jin Laixi nodded and didn't say anything else to him. Instead, he told everyone that they would start crowdfunding after it was confirmed. The money from the crowdfunding would definitely not be too much and would be nothing to everyone.
Wait for the next meeting so that everyone can discuss it again and understand the progress.
After all, there are many people who have not participated yet and do not know this matter yet. It is definitely not something that can be decided in just one talk.
And they just happened to take advantage of the gap during this period to look around and ask the government to see what attitude it held towards their purchase of land and whether it could support it.
After finishing talking about this, everyone also chatted with each other in twos and threes, looking for people who were interested in making friends and chatting.
Ye Yaodong also took advantage of the meeting to end and everyone to chat, and made an order with a few businessmen for tomorrow's shipments. Tomorrow he would go to sea to collect all the goods from several ships.
I have to go look for these merchants in the afternoon myself, and now it’s just time to take advantage of them.
After finishing this matter, he started chatting with everyone.
He is always surrounded by a group of people. From beginning to end, as long as he comes, there will be no shortage of people surrounding him.
Everyone was not very good at speaking Mandarin, so they accommodated him and followed him in speaking Mandarin.
Ye Yaodong was half-guessed at some points, but he could still get a general idea, and the conversation was pleasant, and he also learned several words of Wenshi dialect.
The matter of applying for land purchase with the government in the name of the Chamber of Commerce has been tentatively settled after this meeting.
Next, I mentioned it again and again, trying to make everyone aware of it, because not everyone attends every meeting.
But he didn't care about it. He just listened to the progress results anyway, and he didn't pay that quickly.
When Ye Yaodong waited for the sun to go down and went back, he was thinking as he walked on the road, there were more than 30 people, and each person paid 100 yuan, which was more than 3,000 yuan, which was not a lot.
You can still develop more people later, after all, it will definitely not be that fast to start building the project after it is decided.
It shouldn't be a problem to raise more or less 5,000 yuan. It should be enough to buy a piece of land, but it might take a little more to build a house.
I guess I will have to raise funds again, but that will happen later.
At worst, if we look at personal voluntary donations internally, he will definitely support this. If he donates one or two thousand yuan, takes the lead, and sets an example, his status will definitely be unshakable in the future.
To put it bluntly, he spent most of the money to build this chamber of commerce.
Thinking of this, he also groaned.
Wouldn't it be good to just use that garbage dump next year?
At that time, it will be leased directly to the Chamber of Commerce in the name of leasing.
"Hey, no!"
The location of his place is good, and the rent will definitely vary greatly from year to year. It would not be good if there is a dispute over the rent.
Asking him to contribute for free would definitely not work.
You can't exclude him, otherwise everyone will think that the chamber of commerce belongs to him alone, and he will have superfluous ideas, and the cohesion will be lost.
This chamber of commerce still needs to have its own place, which belongs to everyone, so that they can have a sense of belonging.
He might as well spend more money to support the construction of the Chamber of Commerce, and his reputation would be better and more prestigious.
Spending more money to buy a reputation and avoid future troubles is more worthwhile and profitable for him.
After walking all the way home, he thought clearly about it and waited to mention it again when he met Jin Laixi next time.
For several of their sponsors, it is easy for each of them to shell out thousands of dollars, and they are probably the ones who support the Chamber of Commerce the most.
After Ye Yaodong returned home, he quickly poured himself a bowl of hot tea and his body warmed up.
"It's so fucking cold. It seemed like snow particles had fallen just now, and my hat felt a little wet."
"It's only 5:30 and it's already dark."
"After dinner, go to bed quickly and go to sea at 4 o'clock in the morning."
"It's so cold here, the wind is blowing to my bones. I think it's really going to snow..."
When they got up and went to sea in the early morning of the second day, there were actually a few snowflakes floating in the dark night. The snowflakes fell on the ground in white, but they couldn't accumulate any, and they melted instantly.
It was the first time for most people to see snow and they were very excited.
In southern Fujian Province, except in the mountains, it rarely snows. Even if it does, it falls a little at night and cannot be seen in the morning, let alone snow. There is almost no snow on the beach.
"Wow? It's snowing..."
"It's really snowing..."
"Seeing snow for the first time..."
"This is too small, just a little bit of snow, just a few snowflakes."
"If the children at home see this, they will be very excited."
Ye Yaodong said with a smile: "This snow is too light. When it snows heavily and the ground can accumulate, I will take a photo for everyone. It is best to build a snowman, take a photo with the snowman, and then take it back to you.
Share it with your family.”
"This is good..."
"I think we should take a group photo to commemorate it."
Ye Yaodong thinks this is not bad, "That's okay, we really need to take a group photo."
"It's snowing now. When the temperature is lower at the end of the month or after New Year's Day, it will definitely snow heavily."
"Hurry up and buy some steamed buns. Buy more. You can heat them on the boat at noon and night, and add some hot soup. It will save trouble. Otherwise, you will have to cook them on the boat for a long time in cold weather, and they will get cold immediately after cooking."
"Okay, I just happened to vomit after eating the noodles."
As we walked along, everyone looked up at the snowflakes, their noses were red from the cold, but they all had smiles on their faces, and they were all very happy, thinking in their hearts how happy their family would be if they saw snow.
They were also chatting with each other, looking forward to the heavy snowfall, building a snowman for the children at home, and taking photos to show them.
Ye Yaodong, on the other hand, was thinking that when he came back from the sea, he would check everywhere to see if there was any color film. He had not bought it at home before. If he wanted color photos, he could only hand-paint them manually.
Thinking back to taking pictures of snow, color photos must be better and clearer.
In the past, color film could only be imported, and the quantity was very small, so it was not widely used.
When everyone walked to the pier, everyone around them was happily talking about the snow.
He was also passing by and heard passers-by say that today was the 24th solar term with heavy snow, and he suddenly realized that it was no wonder that he felt that the body temperature was obviously colder today.
After everyone got on the boat and sailed the fishing boat away from the port, keeping a distance from other fishing boats, they looked at the snow on the sea and talked more lively. Everyone stood on the deck to watch the snow, and no one returned to the cabin.
Everyone was shocked by the snowfall on the sea. There were no people around, the sea was on all sides, and under the weak light on the boat, it seemed like countless stars were falling from the sky and falling into the water, which looked beautiful.
It was not the first time for Ye Yaodong to see it, but he thought it was really beautiful. Sitting in the cockpit, it was warm and he could enjoy the snow falling all around.
Unfortunately, when the fishing boat sailed in the middle of the sea and the sky got slightly brighter, the snow stopped, stopped falling, and disappeared without a trace.
He first went to his father to collect the goods. After the weather turned cold, the harvest of hairtail was better and the quality was higher.
Generally, the quality of hairtail will become higher and higher after a light snowfall, and the 20 days before and after the winter solstice are the fattest and most delicious time of the year, which happens to be the year before.
However, these days, there are too many hairtails and it is a busy season. Even when they are at their most plentiful, the price does not rise much. Instead, the price drops as the quantity increases.
Recently, the temperature has begun to drop, seafood can be stored longer and is more popular, fishmongers are asking for more, and the price has not dropped again.
"Dad, it snowed at night."
Father Ye was also full of joy, "Yes, it's snowing. I haven't seen it in many years. It's been many years since we saw it once."
"Just don't hail."
"Crow's Mouth, the weather may be hailing now, and the wind is really blowing."
"Damn, Dad, you are the one with the crow's mouth."
Father Ye also reacted and quickly slapped his mouth.
Crow's Mouth X1
He really has a crow's mouth. The weather is so windy and windy that it just comes. Hail is not certain.
"Take the goods back quickly, it's too cold at night."
After Father Ye said this, he looked at him wrapped up tightly, with only a pair of eyes exposed, and instantly felt that he was talking too much.
His bag looks like a ghost, how can it still be cold?
"Okay, let's go quickly. Don't delay me in setting up the net. I don't know how many days I can catch in this weather. I don't know how big the waves are at night. Fortunately, I can hold it. It's better during the day. I've only been out for three days.
Don’t go back tomorrow.”
"Stop being so cunning."
Crow's Mouth X2
"I just complained. I was either bored in the cockpit or lying in bed sleeping all day long. I couldn't say a few words all day long."
"Then do you want to replace me?"
"I don't know who you are sending those goods to, and I can't understand any of the words you wrote, so forget it."
"I can write pretty well now."
"Even if you write about flowers, I don't recognize you. After loading the goods, you have to go back quickly. It might start snowing heavily at any time."
"I'm so stupid..."
Father Ye realized that he was crow-mouthed again.
"Okay, okay, it's so easy for me to get it right."
Crow Mouth X3
When Ye Yaodong saw that everyone had almost carried the goods, he didn't say anything more to his father. He had to go to the next ship to receive the goods.
Dongsheng's cargo didn't need to be weighed at all. After it was sold, he deducted the cargo from three ships, and the rest belonged to Dongsheng. It was simple and hassle-free.
He went back and forth three times to collect all the goods from Shopee Boat, and then went home and lay down in the middle of the night.
Who would have thought that when he woke up the next day, he would see his father and others coming back, and they would also bring all the goods back and pile them up at the door, waiting for him to wake up and deal with them.
"Why are you back?"
"The wind is blowing..."
Father Ye just said it, and someone next to him answered, "It's a monster wind... there's a strong wind on the sea... we'll be back."
A demonic wind blowing? It has come true.
Maybe he'll be back tomorrow? It's come true.
Is it snowing heavily? To be verified.
His father is really good at talking.
Father Ye was still thinking casually, "It's too cold. It's snowing and windy. There's a cold wind blowing every day. It's even worse at sea, and the wind is even stronger at night..."
His father's words sounded like sophistry.
"Okay, you all go eat something, soak your feet and go to sleep. Leave these goods to me. I'll ask where you can find more goods."
"I also asked your eldest and second brothers to bring their goods back. You go to them first to check the quantity and help sell them together. It's so cold that they haven't slept all night, and they don't want to be on the dock.
Blow the cold wind.”
"knew."
Chapter completed!
