Chapter 577 Extreme joy leads to sorrow
Director Wu took them to visit the entire shipyard and explained to them one by one the configurations of the seven or eight ships being built at the same time, as well as the current technology that can do it.
Even Ye's father and Aguang heard it with some interest. They had never been exposed to a ship bigger than their own.
After the general tour and explanation, they went to a simple small room that was said to be an office, drank two sips of tea, and chatted for a while before leaving.
As soon as he walked out of the shipyard, Aguang said excitedly: "Dongzi, you can either order the two-story building boat just inside. Although it is a bit ugly, the cabin is big and the fish warehouse is also big. It looks good."
It can sleep people, and it can also hold a lot of fish. It can definitely float on the sea for a few days, and it can definitely make a lot of money..."
"Nonsense, how can he have so much money? The one costs more than 10,000 yuan. I heard that several people from the same family jointly ordered it. How can he have so much money to buy such a big boat by himself?"
Aguang was stunned for a moment, as if a bucket of cold water had been poured on him, "That's right, who can pay more than 10,000 yuan for such a big boat? If you can pay it, then households with 10,000 yuan will not be interested in it.
.”
He was a little reluctant to think about it. Who wouldn't be interested in such a magnificent building?
"That boat was just said to be bought by five or six people, right? Dongzi, why don't you call your eldest brother and second brother? No, he's also my eldest brother and second brother. Ask them to contribute some money to form a partnership with you? I'll also contribute some money?"
"
"Anyway, we'll just pay and wait for the money to be divided. You'll be in charge of the whole boat, and we'll calculate the wages anyway. This won't affect the eldest brother and the second brother from driving their own boats, and it won't affect my family's rent collection work."
"Everyone can chip in a bit. If you contribute a lot, you should be able to afford it, right?"
Ye's father's eyes widened. He wanted to stop Dongzi from buying a boat and make him give up the idea of buying a boat. This bad son-in-law actually encouraged him?
He quickly pulled him and said, "Don't talk nonsense. Your eldest and second brothers don't have much money anymore. At the end of last year, one person was defrauded of 1,000 yuan, and his family's fortune was wiped out. In the first half of the year, he finally made some money back, but then again
I took most of it to pay the deposit for the store.
"Afterwards, Jellyfish made a little profit to barely cover the balance of the store. They have to pay the money soon. After paying, where will they have any money left? Don't encourage Dongzi, he has only been at sea for a few years? How can he get it on hand?
With so much money, where can I afford it?”
"Uh..." Aguang thought about it and felt that what his father-in-law said was reasonable.
Dongzi was really empty-handed in the first half of last year. He had nothing. Not to mention his pockets were cleaner than his face, and at least his total wealth was only a few hundred yuan.
After getting a boat later, although I made a lot of money, I guess all of it was spent on buying a boat in the early stage, right?
It seems like you won’t be able to earn tens of thousands of yuan this year, right?
By the way, it seems that he also bought a store in the city and is about to pay the final payment!
Damn it, where can I get the money to buy a boat worth more than 10,000 yuan? It’s a step short of the boss.
After he figured it out, he scratched the back of his head and said, "I took it for granted. I didn't think much about it. You are going to the city to pay the final payment for the shop soon. How can you have the money to buy a big boat?"
"Otherwise, just like our family, just buy another boat and collect rent. It must be enough money, right?"
Father Ye nodded quickly, "Yes, just buy another boat and put it there to collect rent. You won't have to worry about it for the rest of your life. What you earn now will be enough for you to spend decades."
Ye Yaodong: "???"
"How many decades can it take?"
He was still calculating an account silently in his mind. The two of them had already talked about it a lot. Moreover, he only had less than fifteen thousand yuan in his hand, and he could spend it for decades?
"Isn't it? You won't spend much money on food and drink all year round. What you earn now will last you a lifetime."
A Guang also said: "How about you just listen to our father? Anyway, I've made enough!"
"Yeah, that's right. It's safer to buy a boat and collect rent, and the capital doesn't need to be that much. The shop will pay for it soon, so you have to set aside the money."
Ye Yaodong rubbed the bridge of his nose. He only had more than 10,000 yuan on hand. How could he spend a lifetime on it?
But when it comes to buying a boat, he has to go back and do the calculations. There is no special need. He is not very willing to partner with others.
He worked so hard that he had to share it with others who were enjoying the benefits. Although they paid for it, regardless of whether they were relatives or friends, if he could eat it all by himself, he just wanted to do it all by himself.
This is to prevent brothers and friends from having to do anything if they earn too much in the future, like to criticize others, or have various conflicts.
"If I want to collect rent, I also need to buy a boat. If I start looking for it slowly, who knows how long it will take? What if it takes several years?"
"If you order one at the shipyard, you might as well order a larger one. Isn't it cost-effective to order the one you have at home and buy a new one and collect the rent?"
"I thought about it, I definitely can't afford a flat-rate boat with more than 10,000 yuan. Don't think about it. In a few days, I have to go to the city to pay the balance of the shop. After paying the money, my wallet will be emptied."
He won't be able to do it all, not to mention not enough, and the cost will be too high.
Moreover, today's ships are still made of wood, which have poor safety, wind and wave resistance and corrosion resistance. They are much different from those made of steel and fiberglass in the future.
That two-story fishing boat looked crude to him. It was completely incomparable to the ones that would be built decades later. The equipment inside was also very crude. The cabin was completely made of iron sheets welded together.
It is said to be a high-rise boat, but the upper floor can only provide shelter from the wind and rain for sleeping.
Compared with his current boat, it is a little bigger, with an extra layer, a bigger fish warehouse, a little more horsepower, a bigger tonnage, and a bigger tonnage of the net hoist.
There is also an extra water tank, and the towing function is also a little bit more.
Just like Aguang said, if it's a bit ugly, it looks more practical and suitable for floating on the sea for a few days.
He had to go back and add up the total, and discuss it with Ah Qing by the way. This large amount of money was going to be spent, and the couple had to discuss it.
"Of course it's not that easy to buy a boat. You have to pay the money for the shop in a few days. Don't worry about the boat. Go back now."
Ye Yaodong said nothing and went to the bicycle basket to get the rice dumplings he had steamed and brought out in the morning.
Anyway, he has already taken his father to visit. He can just discuss it with Ah Qing when he gets back. If everything is approved by his father, then he doesn't have to do anything.
Elderly people are very conservative.
He handed two rice dumplings to his father and A Guang, "Although they are cold, they are still edible. It's already past noon. Eat them casually to cushion your stomach."
"It's okay. Although it's cold, it doesn't taste bad. I drank a lot of water and finally felt a little dry. No, I have to pee first."
"Together!"
The two of them randomly found a corner.
When Ye Yaodong was shaking after urinating, he saw that he was still urinating. He glanced down at him, which made A Guang alert and deviated slightly to the side.
"What are you looking at, you pervert."
"Selinliang, let's see if it works." After saying that, he kicked him in the butt, making him unprepared. He took a step forward and almost peed his pants.
"Fuck! Ye Yaodong, don't run away~"
Ah Guang gritted his teeth angrily, and quickly finished urinating and shook it twice to put it away.
You would be a fool not to run!
Father Ye was biting rice dumplings when he saw his son running over like a gust of wind. Behind him, A Guang was running angrily and cursing, with a confused look on his face.
"You bitch..."
"Ah! Damn it, come back...didn't I agree that you would give me a lift when you come back??"
"Come back...you dishonest bastard."
Aguang watched helplessly as Ye Yaodong pedaled away quickly on his bicycle, his eyes widened and about to burst into flames.
Father Ye looked at the two of them speechlessly and walked towards him, "What's wrong with you? The two of you are over 50 years old together. It seems like you haven't grown up all day long. Why do you have so many things?"
"He attacked me sneakily, kept his word, and ran faster than a rabbit. I mistrusted him."
A Guang glared at Ye Yaodong's fast riding back, then patted the bicycle seat cushion, "Hurry up and sit on it, I want to catch up with him."
Father Ye shook his head, looked helplessly at the two childish people, and sat on them.
After A Guang stepped on the pedal, the front of the car moved erratically for a while, and then it returned to normal.
Feeling the heavy weight behind him, tears flowed to his stomach. He couldn't let his father-in-law carry him, right?
When he came, he carried one on his back, and when he returned, he carried another on his back. Why was he always the one who got hurt~
Thinking about the hateful figure in front of him, his feet were full of power and he was kicking very fast.
Ye Yaodong turned his head and looked behind him while riding, then with a smirk, he raised one hand and made a pistol gesture, and then biu biu~ these two shaking gestures.
But before he could finish being happy, he turned around and found that the bicycle had veered off the road and rushed directly into the fields on the side of the road...
“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh…”
He quickly tightened his grip on the handlebars, trying to steady the front of the car, but because the road was uneven, full of potholes, and full of rocks, the front of the car spun around and ended up falling into a ditch beside a field.
What does extreme happiness bring about sorrow? This is it!
Happy and handsome, it didn’t last more than three seconds.
Ye Yaodong stepped into the smelly ditch with one foot, but the other foot was still in the field. Fortunately, the bicycle fell over and no one fell in.
Seeing that he had fallen, Aguang quickly pedaled his bicycle over, just in time to see him pull one of his feet out of the stinking ditch in disgust. He gloated unhappily and laughed.
"You also have today? What is retribution? This is, haha, good will be rewarded with good, evil will be rewarded with evil. Do you still dare to do so many evil things? Even God can't bear to see it."
Ye Yaodong looked at his arrogant smile and rolled his eyes at him, "Get out."
"Did you fall somewhere?" Father Ye got off the bicycle and walked towards him.
"No, it didn't fall, it's just a little dirty."
"Then hurry up and go back. Don't be ink here. If you ride a bicycle properly, you can still fall into a ditch. You don't know what to eat. You don't look in front of you while riding. You turn your head everywhere..."
Ye Yaodong pursed his lips and stopped talking. The legs of his trousers were wet, and there was a lot of mud stuck to them. His legs clung to him and he felt uncomfortable.
"Here he comes, dad, leave him alone, how dare he be so proud? He deserves it."
After Aguang waited for Ye's father to sit down again, he became arrogant this time. He smiled and waved to Dongzi.
"Let's go first~"
"Tch~ I'll catch up with you later."
No matter how embarrassing he is, no matter how uncomfortable his feet are, it will not affect his strong speech.
He stepped on the weeds next to him, scraped and rubbed hard, and then lifted the bicycle up again.
