"Hey! Wait, wait, Comrade Ye Yaodong, come here, come here..."
Ye Yaodong was secretly happy, and he planned to spend more time here to polish off his time.
Thirty-three thousand is really not a small amount. It must be cut down more and polished more, otherwise it will always feel like a waste of money.
Moreover, you can also secretly learn shipbuilding skills. Anyway, in cold weather, there are only a few days at sea, and there is nothing to do if you don't go to sea. It would be nice to have another skill at hand.
He just didn't expect that they didn't call him when he went out, but now he was about to get in the car, and they actually ran out to stop him.
He pretended not to know, and pulled back his feet in confusion, turning around to look at Director Wu running out of breath.
"What's wrong, you want to keep me for dinner?"
"No." Director Wu's chest kept rising and falling, and then he waved to him, "Go in and say, I will just recalculate the account, and you will disappear."
Ye Yaodong raised his eyebrows in surprise, "So, you are willing to pay 12,800?"
"Let's talk after we go in." Captain Wu pulled his clothes and asked him to go in and talk later.
Ye Yaodong half pushed and followed in.
When he came out again, it was already an hour later, and the sky was getting slightly dark.
With a satisfied look on his face, he said to Uncle Zhou who had been waiting at the door: "Thank you for your hard work, Uncle Zhou, you have been waiting here."
He pulled out two cigarettes by the way, which was probably the most polite thing he could do.
"Fortunately, there is no need to transport sand or pull rocks today, otherwise I really wouldn't have time to accompany you around all day."
"If Secretary Chen hadn't said to make it as convenient as possible for you, our brigade's tractors wouldn't have been left outside like this all day. It's not private property. If someone is really in an emergency, if lives are at stake, we have to
Being scolded to death.”
"Yes, I use the car quite frequently," Ye Yaodong said sincerely. "Fortunately, Uncle Zhou has a good temper and is very patient. He took me driving for a whole day. I will pay more attention next time. I am also in a hurry today."
Things were all rushed together, so I just thought of getting things done on the way, and as a result, I kept you busy from night to dark..."
"Hey, why are you talking about this? I'm happy to work and earn money. There is no easier job than driving. I'm just afraid that the folks will say something."
"Yes, I know it too. It's almost as good as my own. I'll be more careful next time. Apart from delivering goods, there shouldn't be anything else I need to use the car for."
"I just want to remind you that we can't stay out all day. If the village committee or the villagers are really in an emergency and need a tractor and can't find it, it wouldn't be good."
"Okay, let's go back quickly, otherwise it will be dark when we get back."
"Then sit tight."
Ye Yaodong held the handrail on the edge and felt that today was indeed too much. He drove the tractor outside all day long, from midnight to dark.
This is not his private property. It's okay to apply for it frequently every three days. It's not good to occupy it all day long. No one can tell if something unexpected happens.
Traffic is really inconvenient these days.
Even if he is asked to buy a tractor, he has no ability to do so. If he has the money, he would rather buy a boat. If he buys a tractor, will he still drive this big thing to carry passengers and make money?
However, I did have to get some grapefruits and oranges for Uncle Zhou when I went back. He kept letting people come and go with stars and moons all day long, but he kept talking and didn't give anything to anyone.
The tractor bumped all the way to the house, and it was pitch dark.
The family originally thought that he would be back early after delivering the goods today, but unexpectedly it was already dark again.
Ah Qing knew that he was going to visit the shipyard in the city today to understand the market conditions in the city. He also knew that he would not come back so early, but he did not expect that it would be after dark.
The lunch meal was kept warm in the pot until evening.
"Why are you coming back so late? Isn't it going well? I heard that there have been tribulations recently, and it's not peaceful."
"Jie Dao?"
"I heard something from someone in the village today. It seems that a relative from the next village went to the county to see a doctor. As a result, he was robbed on the road. His money was robbed and he was beaten. He was already half dead. Well,
, I came back with injuries all over my body, and no one was there in the afternoon."
Ye Yaodong ate half of his rice and bit his chopsticks, "Fortunately! We didn't meet each other, otherwise we would have been doomed."
He became more cautious. When he went to the shipyard to pay the deposit tomorrow, he couldn't go alone. He had to call all his brothers!
What if by chance, he catches up? Two fists are hard to beat with four hands!
Lin Xiuqing also asked about the boat at this time.
Ye Yaodong talked about what he saw at the city's shipyard, focusing on the price difference between the city's ships and those in the county. The same configuration was 1,500 more expensive.
"So much difference? Then we can't book in the city, even if it's far away, it's so expensive, and it's inconvenient to go back and forth. We can just book directly in our county. When we are free, we can go there every three days to take a look.
Let’s know the progress.”
"Definitely. If it's 1,500 cheaper, then we must choose the one in the city. It's a little more troublesome to go back and forth. At least we can save a lot of money. Now it's 1,500 more expensive, and we don't think the money is too hot."
"So you came back so late because you were delayed in the city?"
"That's not true. As soon as I heard the quotation from the city, I turned around and left. There was no need to even talk. It was so different. They were not sincere and they were trying to kill me. When I came back and passed the county seat, I thought
By the way, I went to the shipyard to see if I could waste some money, and if I could save a little, it would be a little bit."
Lin Xiuqing nodded, "You have to work harder to negotiate the price. If it's just one or two hundred cheaper, it's a big deal. If it's less, it's equivalent to making money."
"That's what I said, but Director Wu is also very tough. No matter what I say, he will not give up a penny. Then I turned around and left, and he didn't hold back until I was about to get on the tractor.
Run out and call me."
"How much less is it?"
"No, not a penny less!"
Lin Xiuqing slapped him angrily, "Didn't you say that you had already left and were about to get on the tractor, but he came out and stopped you again? If you don't give me a small amount of money, why did you stop him?"
Ye Yaodong laughed and said: "Although it's not a small amount of money, he said he could give me a fishing net, suitable for the trawler's fishing net."
"You have to know that for such a big ship, the re-weaved fishing net is not small. The material cost alone should be tens or hundreds of yuan, plus the labor required to weave it takes more than half a month. This can give me a net, and it can also
It saves me a lot of trouble."
Lin Xiuqing was immediately overjoyed, "It's okay to give us a fishing net. We don't have anyone to weave a net in our family. I'll have to go to work in two years, so I may not have time to weave it. It costs money to hire someone, so just give us a knitted net."
It’s easier.”
"That's what I said, so we finally negotiated and asked him to give me a five-year warranty. By the way, he would have to fill up the gas tank for me, so it was settled."
"It has a five-year warranty. That's okay! The machines on this ship break down too easily. Hiring someone every two days can cost you a lot of money, especially if it lasts a long time."
"So, just about the warranty issue, I talked a lot about it. My mouth was thirsty. It took a lot of words before the old guy agreed, so it was already dark when I came back."
The old lady also smiled and interjected, "It's good that this one has a warranty. Many people just sell their things and forget about it. It's best to write it down in black and white, so that it won't be hard to tell others when the time comes."
"Yes, let him write the contract in and make it clear. I will pay the deposit tomorrow and get the contract back."
Lin Xiuqing was happy to have a big boat in her family, but she was also distressed that she would have to pay a huge fortune all of a sudden.
"This time I paid another 3,000, and two days later I paid another 5,000, but it was really a heavy hemorrhage, and the family was completely empty again..."
"Uh...wife..." Ye Yaodong forgot, he talked a lot, and forgot to talk about the most important thing.
Lin Xiuqing frowned. It would not do any good to call her wife back!
What's the matter?
And he still shouted in front of the old lady. In the past, if anything happened, I would go back to the room and call my wife in private.
"Ahem! Our deposit is not 3,000, but 5,000!"
"Ah? Didn't you say yesterday that almost 3,000 yuan is enough? Why do you need so much 5,000 yuan all of a sudden?" Lin Xiuqing's eyes widened and she asked in confusion.
"Uh...well...that's it...I'll tell you after I finish my meal..."
The expression on Lin Xiuqing's face instantly dropped and she became very serious, staring at him eagerly, "Okay, then eat slowly!"
The old lady looked at this and that, and she felt that the atmosphere was suddenly not right.
"If you have anything to do, just say it directly. Don't quarrel. Buying a boat is a good thing and a big deal. If everything is agreed upon, you can't change it or lose your temper. Dongzi can't mess around. What's the matter with the couple?
We have to discuss everything, but don’t make up your own mind about anything and dare not tell others.”
Ye Yaodong quickly scraped a mouthful of rice in the bowl with a spoon and ate it all into his mouth before saying: "It's like this, after all, our ship is relatively big, so we definitely won't go there on the same day, and we will return on the same day. Although it is also offshore, we will definitely go far away."
If you fish for a few days in a small place, the risk will obviously be high."
"So I went to the city to find out more. It turns out that maritime radio stations are already available, but they are more expensive."
"What is that?" Lin Xiuqing frowned even more tightly.
Just tell her, why did she suddenly call her wife in such a good way?
It turns out that there is still something waiting for her.
Damn it!
She went out silently and didn't know how much money she spent. No wonder she looked guilty just now and was so angry!
"Don't you know about the maritime radio station? It can receive signal information at sea, and the ship can communicate with the coast station. It also facilitates the exchange of information with other ships. You can hear what is going on at sea and call for help in distress."
"It's very useful! If you lose contact at sea, you can rely on this to save your life, and you can also receive weather warnings. At sea, the weather is very important. We can listen to the broadcast to judge whether we can go to sea today, tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."
When Lin Xiuqing heard this, her frown was relieved.
The old lady said first: "Then this must be matched with one, absolutely must be matched with one, but you can't just buy it because it is expensive, it is worth the money. It is not inconvenient to do anything at sea, not to mention that once the ship goes to sea, it will
God, it’s best if you can contact someone, no matter how important money is, it’s not as important as life.”
Lin Xiuqing's face looked better, and she nodded, "Well, how much does it cost to match one?"
"It's not very expensive, 2,000 yuan!"
Lin Xiuqing opened her mouth, 2,000 yuan is not very expensive?
Ye Yaodong also knew what she was thinking, "The maritime intercom costs 3,000 yuan!"
There is one more piece to be filled tomorrow. I am a little too busy today and I have to get up early tomorrow morning to move bricks.
Chapter completed!
