Strange things always spread very quickly. When Ye Yaodong came back in the evening, he heard that the news had spread throughout the surrounding villages, saying that someone in their Baisha Village had fished a big cauldron from the sea and dedicated it to Mazu.
People in the village were so curious that they went to the Mazu Temple to see what the big cauldron looked like. They all praised Ye Yaodong for being enlightened and not greedy for money. He was a good donor and could be used for anything if he donated it to the Mazu Temple.
"I used to think that he was quite out of character, and no family in the village dared to marry their daughter to him. Unexpectedly, he suddenly became agitated in the past two years."
"Yeah, I used to be carefree, but now I still look like I'm laughing and joking and a little bit arrogant, but I've become quite reliable."
"It's so reliable, you can make money!"
"Isn't that true? It has only been a while since the small boat was replaced by a big one, and from time to time we caught big cargo. Seeing that their family's life is prospering..."
"Yes, I also gave birth to a daughter, which added to the family..."
"To attract wealth and bring in treasures, he has taken over all the entrances to the family..."
"I don't know what kind of shitty luck I got..."
"At that time, his mother went everywhere to marry him. She was worried that he would not be able to marry a wife. If I had known, I would have married my daughter. Now I can enjoy happiness and help the family..."
"Isn't it a nice idea? Your girl's face is pockmarked and she's short. Why is A Dong so out of place? She's pretty cool at least..."
"What's wrong with the pockmarked face? Is it growing on you? Marry a man, wear clothes, eat, and embroider pillows that don't make any money. What's the use of being good-looking?"
"Tch~ it's useless? Then you still regret it if you leave it here?"
A group of women were chatting in the temple and started to quarrel. It was only after the women next to them smoothed things over that they stopped.
Ye Yaodong only knew that words spread quickly, but didn't know about the incident. He went out to sea to fish every day as usual, and he didn't know when the official people would come to visit. He had to go out to sea and just sit and wait at home. Why? It's not like he was eager.
Want to donate.
I don’t even know if someone is coming. What if the news doesn’t reach the county, or people in their local county don’t take it seriously?
It happened to have been raining for so long, and it was sunny these two days, so of course we had to go to sea.
This matter was rumored in the village for a day or two, and then it faded away a bit. After other new incidents of family disputes occurred, it was immediately covered up, but occasionally someone mentioned it and talked about it.
Four or five days have passed, and the village has been calm. Ye Yaodong thought that the tripod was on fire.
Unexpectedly, after he had put it behind him, people from the county cultural center and the county government suddenly came to visit on this day, and the village committee accompanied them to the door.
When Ye Yaodong came back from the sea, the villagers who had just arrived at the dock and had something going on excitedly called him to go home quickly, saying that a big shot in the county was looking for him. A large number of people were sitting in front of his house waiting for him to come back.
"Ah? They are all sitting in front of my house? Who are they? Why are you here? How many people are there?"
I thought it wouldn't come, but I didn't expect it to come.
"About 6,789 of them. You'll know if you go back and take a look. We don't recognize the bunch of people wearing Chinese tunic suits."
Six, seven, eighty-nine? Is this range a bit wide?
Ye Yaodong took his time to push the trolley, preparing to push it to the shore and pick up the goods later. As he walked, he said: "When did you come? Why did you come? I didn't tell you in advance, the sun has already set.
"
The middle-aged woman on the side chatted: "I came here in the morning. It seems to be for the cauldron you fished out a few days ago. I also went to Mazu Temple in the morning and stayed there for a long time. Talking about cultural relics and antiques.
, how rare it is, it belongs to the state, and I told our village committee a lot of nonsense, and everyone couldn’t understand it."
"Yes, the tripod I told them is so rare. I feel like the visitor is evil, as if he wants to take away the tripod you donated to Mazu Temple."
"Yes, I heard that the tripod is to be taken away. You can't just take it away to others. This is something in our temple. It has been donated to Mazu. It belongs to Mazu. How can you take it away with them?
.”
"That is, you have to tell them when you go back and ask them to find another one elsewhere."
"Yes, let them find another one somewhere else."
A group of women and villagers who had not gone to sea were all chatting away.
Ye Yaodong was dumbfounded when he heard this, "Then will they still be there now? The sun has already set."
"It seems that you haven't left, but you are still here. I knew you were going to sea, and the village committee took you around for a tour today. In the afternoon, I was sitting in front of your house again, waiting for you."
"My arrogance is so grand? A bunch of big shots are waiting for me at my house?"
I thought he was quite flattered, but I didn't expect him to have such treatment, which ordinary people cannot enjoy.
"Isn't it true? This is not the first time that so many important people are waiting for you at your door. Listen to what they call curator and secretary. It looks unusual."
"Yes, yes, it looks very stylish. Go back quickly and don't linger here."
"Okay, I'll push the cart over first. If you have time, help my dad. Otherwise, he won't have anyone to help me when I leave. Don't let anyone steal the goods."
"No problem, there are so many people here, everyone is watching over you, so hurry up and go."
Ye Yaodong gave the goods to his father to sell, asked the villagers for help, and hurried back. He came back quite early today. The sun had not set long after he docked, and the sky was still bright. It was dark in the summer.
late.
He was trotting with a hat in his hand, and there were a few good people beside him, planning to follow the villagers who went over to watch the fun.
When I was almost in front of my house, I saw a group of people standing up from a distance. I didn’t know what they were talking about. They mumbled a few words and walked out while talking. Ah Qing also stood there with a smile on his face.
beside.
"Ah! A Dong is back!"
"Back?"
"Finally back?"
"I came back so late and I was planning to leave."
Secretary Chen apologized and said with a smile: "It's quite early to come back today. A few days ago, the fishermen in our village didn't dock until dark. It's not easy to live under the stars and the moon. I told several leaders before that they all
Said to wait and see."
He continued to put in good words for Ye Yaodong, "Adong didn't know that guests would be arriving today, and no one informed him in advance to ask him to stay at home, otherwise the leaders wouldn't have been kept waiting for so long..."
An old man with gray-haired hair said with a smile: "Hahaha~ It's good that I'm back. At least I didn't miss anything. Let's take a walk... He just happened to be back, so let's go in and sit for a while..."
"I've been waiting all day for someone, and I can't just leave. Let's go in and sit down for a while, and tell him what needs to be said so that he doesn't go to sea at night. Let's come over tomorrow to discuss it in detail."
"Then go in, you can't go in vain, everyone is back..."
"Yes, not counting this short period of time."
"Go in and say... Go in and say...it doesn't get dark that fast..."
When the leaders in Chinese tunic suits saw Ye Yaodong, they walked back after talking to each other without giving Ye Yaodong a chance to speak and ask. Secretary Chen waved to him and asked him to follow quickly.
In fact, none of them took him as a fisherman seriously. Fortunately, he didn't rush to the door.
The good-hearted villagers and neighbors also followed. Some well-informed people also ran this way when they heard that Ye Yaodong was back.
Not long after, there was a group of people standing close to each other in front of their door, everyone stretching their necks to look into the room.
Ye Yaodong also looked at the so-called big shots in the house, not to mention the so-called big shots in the villagers' mouth. Not to mention, two of them looked really familiar. They had appeared before during the evaluation of ten thousand yuan households.
It is good to be young and have a strong memory.
After entering the room, he stood next to Secretary Chen without speaking, intending to wait for these people to speak.
The gray-haired old man looked at him and said with a smile: "I am Li Desyao, director of the county cultural center. Are you Comrade Ye Yaodong?"
"I am."
"It's like this. I heard someone said two days ago that you fished out a large bronze cauldron. Your village chief went to the county for a meeting and confirmed this, so today we came to have a look."
"It wasn't just the past two days, it was five or six days ago."
A few days ago, he heard that someone went into the water where he fished for bronzes. He planned to see if there were any more. If there were any, they would be worth some money and sold to junk collectors, but none of them were there.
After all, a pressure every ten meters is no joke.
Ordinary people can generally dive to less than 10 meters without the help of any tools. Those with slightly weaker physiques can only dive to about 5 meters. Professionals can probably dive to about 30 meters. Of course, there are even more powerful ones.
"Yes, we knew it happened five or six days ago, and we only heard and confirmed it two or three days ago, so no, we came to your door today. It's just a coincidence that we didn't inform you in advance, so we waited a whole day in vain.
Oh my god, I almost came back without success, but fortunately you came back in time."
The old man spoke very politely and had a smile on his face. Ye Yaodong felt comfortable listening and had a smile on his face, "Yeah, if I didn't know beforehand, if I knew, I would have waited at home and the leaders of the province would do it."
Wait all day."
"It doesn't matter, we came unexpectedly. It's a bit late today, so I asked straight to the point. When you fished it out, was it just the big cauldron? Were there any other things that were dragged in too?"
The Cultural Relics Protection Law was implemented in 1982, and there was a bronze cauldron in front of it. He thought that even if he intercepted the wine cup, it would be a hot potato, and he did not dare to take action. Moreover, the longer it was kept, the more valuable it would be and the greater the punishment. So it was better to just give it away.
, sell well.
Regardless of whether they could get the consent of the villagers to take the big cauldron away from the Mazu Temple, at least he contributed the wine glass, so he should be able to get an honorary mention.
We have just received a wave of public support from the villagers, and our honor cannot be lost.
Ye Yaodong nodded and admitted: "Yes, there was a bronze wine cup that was dragged up with the cauldron. Wait a moment, I will go into the house and get it for you."
