Ye Yaodong drew a big cake and hung it on Wang Jianxin, encouraged him a lot, and then asked him to go back first and then come to the shop to work tomorrow.
Regardless of whether you have to run around for the things he told you, you must come to the store to check in first, and then you can find a place to place an order.
Now this store is where he works.
Ye Yaodong and others left and chatted with Father Lin for a while.
From what he said when he entered the door, Father Lin has been curious about what he was rewarded with.
Ye Yaodong had caught an unmanned underwater vehicle. He had known about it for a long time. They were still chatting about it yesterday.
Weng and son-in-law chatted until it was dark, and then Lin's father sent him away with a smile on his face.
It was cold and windy on the pier, but there were still many people coming and going.
When Ye Yaodong arrived at the dock, he saw a group of people weighing and moving goods there.
"The goods haven't been collected yet? What time is it?"
"Brother Dong, we are not lazy. In fact, we have collected enough goods and spent all the money. But everyone saw that you haven't come yet, so they thought of continuing to collect. By the way, I'm waiting for you. I want to collect more goods. My sister-in-law said it doesn't matter.
"
"Oh, how much did it cost?"
"Wait a minute, the weighing is not finished here yet, I have to do some calculations. Fortunately, the people who came back earlier have money in their pockets, so they can give them some extra money."
"Let's move all the goods onto the ship. We'll go back directly after this weighing."
At this time, the seller Chuanlao Dadao said: "Boss, can you set up a fixed receiving point on the dock? You can stop work when it gets dark. Most of us only dock after dark, and bring back the goods."
Sometimes I can’t catch up.”
Ye Yaodong thought for a while and said: "We have just started receiving goods. The fixed delivery time will be later. Let's wait until after the New Year."
"I have to celebrate the New Year...that's okay too."
"Is it cost-effective for you to bring back so many small miscellaneous fish?"
"It's not bad. Just give it some subsidies. A ship with dozens of tons of cargo is not much more than a few tons. It would be a waste to dump it into the sea."
"I think so. I have my own boat, so I can figure it out."
"What are you little bastards planning to do when you go out?"
"it works."
He didn't say anything more. He turned to his friend and said, "I'll go to the boat first. You can come up later after collecting it."
"OK."
He didn't have much money on him, so Ye Yaodong didn't lock it under his bed, but hid it on his body.
After they loaded all the goods and things onto the ship, he counted the number of people and found that there were no missing persons before ordering the ship to sail back.
It was indeed very late now, much later than before, it was already 8 o'clock, and everyone was a little anxious to get back home.
However, this did not prevent them from excitedly communicating with each other on the deck. Of course, they were all talking about their commendation meeting, how much money they had been awarded, etc.
When we received the goods at the dock before, everyone only had time to discuss a few words and glance at the certificate, but there was no time to elaborate.
I can't wait now, and the boatmen can't wait to show off.
There was a lively scene down there, and Ye Yaodong in the cockpit was also thinking about what the ship boss just said.
If you want more quantity, you still have to set up a point, and people have to be here to receive the goods 24 hours a day.
After all, the wholesale market trades at night, and larger fishing boats will also choose to dock at night. If you want more volume, you have to harvest at night.
What they collect at the shore during the day are scattered bulk cargo from fishing boats that go back and forth on the same day.
But I'm not in a hurry now. I've just started collecting for a few days, and the number of additional containers at home is limited. I have to wait for Wang Jianxin to order some more containers and put them in the factory in the city.
When we really set up a fixed delivery outlet at the dock, we can really achieve continuous mass production.
Ye Yaodong was thinking about his own business empire all the way, and it wasn't until he got home that he separated his mind and unloaded the goods first.
"Move down the beds and quilts in the cabin and take them apart and wash them. They stink like hell."
"OK."
"Whoever sleeps with you can take it home and wash it. Don't expect my wife to wash it for you."
"OK."
“I don’t know how to clean my personal housekeeping. I have to wait for others to tell me all day long.”
"Yours doesn't seem to be very fragrant, does it?"
"If I hadn't told you, you wouldn't have washed yourself during the Chinese New Year."
"Haha, everyone is the same."
"The Chinese New Year is just one month away. Otherwise, we should save it for the New Year and wash it later. Now I have to wash it for the Chinese New Year?"
"It's a shame to wash it one more time?" Ye Yaodong said angrily, "I don't want you to wash it anyway. My wife will wash it when you get it home."
"It's troublesome to take it around."
"It's up to you, whoever sleeps on the quilt will take it home and wash it."
They are all lazy people who will never move much if they can get by.
It was already midnight, and really no one except Ye Yaodong took down the quilt. He didn't care about them. He just moved the goods to the receiving ship anyway.
At this time, there was no one else in the workshop except the people on duty. They were all off work.
Everyone took all the goods to the workshop, piled them in the corner, kept them for processing tomorrow, and then went home.
Naturally, someone carried Ye Yaodong's quilt to the door of his house. He ran to knock on the window skillfully. This time, Lin Xiuqing didn't need to open the window and asked him to go to the front door directly.
As soon as he stepped through the door, he muttered, "Why don't you open the window and see who is opening the door? Or ask, just go to the front door without asking. If a wild man comes from somewhere, wouldn't that be dangerous?"
"
"Which wild man dares to come to our place and knock on the window?"
"That's hard to say."
"The yard is full of dogs. They will bark when they smell the smell of strangers."
"Then if the perpetrators are acquaintances, those stupid dogs..."
"It will still bark at the slightest movement at night, but it won't bark unless it's close enough to smell it. When you came over earlier, the dog at home also barked twice before stopping."
"That's not what you yelled at me, you yelled at the person holding the quilt."
"Stop being verbose and hurry in. It's midnight every day. I asked you to bring the key but you didn't. I'm sorry to be verbose here."
"Then if you hear the knocking on the window, you have to ask next time."
"If I ask you, you will be my concubine, my adulterer, or my father."
Ye Yaodong whispered: "Then I will call you sister-in-law next time?"
Lin Xiuqing stopped, turned around and gave him a sharp look, "What is going on in your head every day?"
He said honestly: "Yellow waste."
Lin Xiuqing was angry, "You are quite self-aware."
"You're kidding."
Helpless, she threw the quilt she was holding on top of the washing machine and made a fire for him to cook a midnight snack.
When the old lady heard the commotion, she came out to greet her as usual, but as soon as she met him, he drove her back.
In the middle of the night, if there is any movement, I have to get up and watch, it's true.
Lin Xiuqing asked while lighting the fire: "I went to receive the award today. What was the reward? Didn't you bring back any enamel jar, washbasin, thermos or something? There were always rewards in the past. Where's the pen?"
I didn't think about it when I first walked in, but now that I saw him sitting down, there was nothing on the table. I was a little confused, why didn't I bring anything back?
"Who told you to reward these?"
"No, then if there were rewards in the past, weren't they basically the same?"
Ye Yaodong smiled and took out the commendation book from his big pocket, "I won't reward those this time. We have enough at home. We have three or four hot water bottles and one washbasin for each person. Why do we need so many?"
Lin Xiuqing stood up and walked over, looking at the notebook he took out, "Is this your commendation certificate? Is this the one?"
He continued to dig into his pockets, took out a few big balls and put them on the table.
"50 yuan?"
"I haven't finished paying yet."
As he spoke, he took off his clothes and took out a red envelope from the inside of his cotton-padded coat.
"And this one, this one is much more valuable than those washbasins and bottles of yours."
Lin Xiuqing was instantly pleasantly surprised and squeezed the red envelope, "Is this the one? So thick? There are more than 5 here, right? So many..."
"More than that, here is 1,000 yuan."
"1000 yuan!!!"
She had already seen a thick packet through her mouth, but she was still surprised when she heard 1,000 yuan.
"Yes, the quantity is 500 for each boatman and 1,000 for me."
"The boatmen still have 500 yuan each? So much? Are you so generous this time? There are 6 of you in total. How about 3,500 yuan? Is the sun going to the west?"
Ye Yaodong explained to her the special features of the unmanned underwater vehicle. The reward money was not that much and was relatively normal.
The country should have a standard for rewarding these things.
And now he wants to be in the newspaper, so that he can be set up as a model of a dedicated, patriotic, and party-loving fisherman, so as to mobilize the enthusiasm of the fishermen.
Fishermen are working people at the bottom, and they also need to eat. If there are no more rewards, how dare they chase after overseas boats to catch fish? Being patriotic is patriotic, but they also need to eat.
The state must also affirm and encourage their behavior, and cannot let people work for nothing. This is purely an accident.
After crushing it and feeding it into her mouth, Lin Xiuqing nodded happily, thinking it made sense.
"For us, a reward of 1,000 yuan is not much. After all, we have lost a day of fishing, and we have to pay for gas for the round trip. But we are responsible for it ourselves, and the boatmen have made a lot of money."
"Yes, I earned them 500 yuan per person, which is half a year's salary. It made them a lot of money. It's a pity that my father didn't go on the ship at that time. Otherwise, he would have had 500 yuan more for retirement."
"It's a pity indeed. If he heard it tomorrow, he would probably be sulking again."
Lin Xiuqing put down the money in her hand and went to cook noodles for him. She could talk while doing it.
"Then why did you come back now after receiving the award?"
Ye Yaodong told him again about his arrangements for Wang Jianxin, as well as some plans he had in mind when sailing the ship.
"The land at home is definitely not big enough. We must slowly expand it, sell it to all coastal markets, and then sell it overseas."
"The land in the city must be utilized. Fortunately, it has been completed. However, this fish sauce is not good at all. The fermentation time is too long. We must prepare and plan in advance before mass production..."
Ye Yaodong talked eloquently and talked a lot. Lin Xiuqing listened and nodded in agreement, feeling that what he said was very reasonable.
"Then you can do whatever you want. According to your own ideas, the land has been bought and built, so you can't just leave it there and waste it."
"It's rare. Finally, there's a time when you don't object."
"What am I objecting to?"
"In the first two years, I opposed everything you did. Not only you, but the whole family also opposed it!"
"Wasn't it that you were unreliable before? You were lazy and idle every day. If I didn't object, I could give you the house to do whatever you wanted. Who knows if your diligence is the three-minute heat? But I'm not the only one who thinks you are unreliable.
, the whole family thinks you are unreliable."
Ye Yaodong had nothing to say.
"Then if I buy a TV, you have to object, and if I buy a washing machine, you have to object too. This will obviously benefit the whole family."
"At that time, I didn't think it was necessary. I didn't have a lot of money. Who knows if there will be any changes. It would be better to save as much money as possible."
"What happened?"
"It's hard to say. There are many natural and man-made disasters. Of course, you have to save a lot of money first. If you have money in your hand, you won't panic. And there are so many dogs betting now. Who knows whether you will get into bad habits. You don't have anything to do in the first place.
Good habit."
"Damn it, if you talk about me like this, I'm a waste, and I don't have any bad habits."
"Just because you didn't do it before doesn't mean you won't do it in the future. Men become bad when they have money."
"I won't give you all the money."
Lin Xiuqing took the spatula and stirred the noodle soup in the pot. She turned to look at him and laughed, "So, don't I support you now?"
"That's because what I said made sense and was well planned. I didn't just talk casually."
"Well, that's right, you're mature now, you're more stable, you know how to think about life carefully, and you know how to plan, so you won't make people feel unreliable."
Ye Yaodong was satisfied.
"That's pretty much it."
"Eat quickly and go to sleep. It's very late."
"Um."
Lin Xiuqing brought the noodles to him, took out the chopsticks and handed them to him, then picked up the red envelopes on the table to count them.
"Are these 10 yuan bills on the table the same?"
"No, what's on the table? I brought it with me when I went out today. I didn't spend much money on lunch. But they waited for me specially when they received the goods today, so they received it a little late. It seems that they have a lot of extra money. You can put it in tomorrow morning."
The goods brought back yesterday should be weighed and reimbursed to them. Originally, I wanted to reimburse them, but before they finished their work, I boarded the ship first. By the way, I will reimburse them more starting from tomorrow, so as not to have to ask others to reimburse them all the time."
"knew."
"Please keep my certificate of commendation away from me."
"I know, I will collect it for you. I will also collect the money for you. Don't move, okay?"
"Well, that's right, that's what a wife has to do."
Lin Xiuqing smiled and patted his shoulder with the certificate before taking it into the house and putting it away.
When she came out, she was not idle and went to unwrap the quilt again, "Where are the other quilts? In the workshop?"
"On the boat, forget them if you are too lazy..."
Ye Yaodong scolded and said that all lazy people are dirty no matter how dirty they are.
"Anyway, there is a washing machine at home, so it doesn't matter if you bring them all back for me to wash. They are also our own quilts..."
The couple chatted nonchalantly, one eating noodles and the other working. When Ye Yaodong finished eating, she also put down what she was doing and went back to the house to sleep together.
Early the next morning, before he got up, news about their award collection yesterday had spread throughout the village.
Because it was late at night when I came back yesterday, so I didn’t have to show off, and I almost choked people up.
So many people got up early in the morning to set off firecrackers. After attracting a large number of people, they quickly told their neighbors about their glorious deeds.
Although everyone admires those who have no money, there is no way to be as famous as being in a newspaper. I was excited to hear that they would be in the newspaper later.
This is no less than being on TV in later generations, and it can be seen by people all over the country.
Ye Yaodong was also awakened by the sound of firecrackers at his door.
He still got up inexplicably, and there were a lot of people talking around his father and mother at the door. There were red firecracker papers on the ground, and a bunch of children were squatting all over the floor looking for unfinished firecrackers.
"Why are you so busy?"
"Mom said we should set off firecrackers. You attended the commendation meeting, got the certificate of commendation, and even appeared in the newspaper. She said it was worth setting off firecrackers to celebrate. Others also set off firecrackers this morning. We must set off firecrackers even more."
"All right."
He looked at his father and told the neighbors with a smile on his face. He probably knew that he was very happy to be complimented and was not depressed because of the 500 yuan.
As soon as Ye Yaopeng saw him, he couldn't wait to ask: "Dongzi is up? Shall we go to sea at night?"
"It was windy the night before yesterday and last night. When I came back last night, the waves were quite big. Let's take a look at it in the evening?"
"That's fine."
"Uncle Ye, this is such a pity, isn't it? Others have certificates of commendation and can still appear in the newspaper. This is probably only once in their lives. For such a rare opportunity, you just lost 500 yuan, and you also lost the opportunity to be in the newspaper.
"
The old woman who was originally talking to Ye's mother turned around and said to Ye's father. She said this without any malice, she was just teasing Ye's father with a smile.
Father Ye sighed, "There's nothing I can do about it. Who knows what good or bad things may happen to me. I wish I could figure it out."
He thought to himself that he had to follow Dongzi in order to gain more experience and encounter good things.
However, this opportunity will probably never come back in the future, and Father Ye also feels regretful.
If he could be in the newspaper, his life would have been worth it. It's a pity that now he can only watch other boatmen in the village being miserable.
Thinking about 500 yuan, plus being in the newspaper, he missed it, and his heart bleeds.
Ye Yaodong did not continue to listen to them and went back to the house to eat.
After eating, the people at the door dispersed, and many gathered at the door of the workshop. He also went to the workshop to inspect and help.
There are now about 30 people working in the two workshops here every day. People are needed for moving, lifting and sorting, and even more for killing, cleaning and drying fish.
In addition to the fifteen or sixteen workers he hires regularly, the remaining 20 or so women are temporary helpers. However, they work every day now and their earnings are not less than others.
At this time, everyone in the village was talking about the fact that they were commended. It probably took many days in the village. After all, there were so many people involved, and everyone in each family felt that it was a great honor, so they must talk about it more.
Ye Yaodong walked to the place where the dried fish was dried and looked through the dried fish. Some fish were cut across the abdomen and dried in just two or three days, such as toad fish and faucet; some fish had to be cooked and dried, such as
Balang fish needs to be dried for a longer period of time before it can be preserved; others need to be sliced ​​and dried, such as herring.
At this time, Father Ye came over and sighed: "It's a pity this time. Once your eldest and second brothers become proficient, I will follow you and work for you."
He chuckled, "I thought you wanted to say that once you get the eldest and second brothers familiar, you would stop working and just stay at home and bask in the sun and retire."
"How can I do that? I'm only 53, so I can't do anything."
"Well, it's up to you."
"Actually, you don't need to take your eldest and second brothers with you. You just need to know how to sail. If you stay on several boats together, you won't get lost..."
Father Ye was really heartbroken because the money and glory he had obviously lost.
"Then you still have to bring someone with you, otherwise they will think it's unfair that you are partial and only help me but not them. After all, they are novices and they will feel panic at the helm of such a big ship."
"I still have a future with you, and I can gain knowledge and always encounter good things..."
When Ye Yaodong heard this, his father's frustrated expression when he was in jail flashed through his mind, as well as the excitement he had just unleashed.
"Ahem...you can either take them with you for a month or two before the new year, and then you can continue to return to my ship after the new year?"
"That's okay. It only takes one month to celebrate the New Year."
With hope, Father Ye didn't worry about it anymore. Anyway, if he missed it, he missed it, so there was no need to worry about it. No matter what, it was all his son's credit, and his face was bright.
In the afternoon, Lin's father suddenly called and said that he was optimistic about the future. Lin Xianghui's house was planned to be moved on the seventh day of the twelfth lunar month. It happened that all the children at home were on winter vacation, and they all were brought there to have fun.
Ye Yaodong looked at the calendar and made a plan in his mind. After forgetting that there was still a week, he told Lin Xiuqing that it was okay.
As expected, we will go out to sea tonight, and there won’t be much wind or waves.
Everyone also discussed it in the evening, and then informed the boatmen to prepare to go to sea at night.
Because he had a plan for this trip, he waited for the fifth day of the lunar month to sell goods early, and came back the next day on the sixth day of the lunar month.
The children at home had long known that their uncle was moving on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year and that the whole family was going to the city for a wedding banquet. They were already crazy with joy and had been looking forward to it a few days ago.
As soon as he got home, all three of them gathered around him and talked. This was the first time that he was so welcomed back from the sea.
In the past, he had to go far away and bring back gifts, so they could surround him with such joy.
"Dad, you are finally back. I have been waiting for you for several days."
"Me too. Mom said we have to wait until you come back before we can go to the city together."
"I'm going to the city. Dad is back and going to the city~"
Ye Yaodong looked down at the three people circling around him or holding his thighs, "I asked you why you were so enthusiastic towards me today."
"Dad, hurry up and take a shower. We'll go there right away after you take a shower."
"What's the hurry? Let's go."
Ye Chengyang jumped up and down and followed him wherever he went. He kept urging him, which made Ye Yaodong's head grow bigger.
"Why didn't I know you were so verbose before?"
"Hurry up, I haven't even been to the city."
"Your brother had to take a 100-point test before he went to the city. You can go without taking the test. If you press him, you won't take it..."
"Ah, yes! Why!"
Ever since he knew he was going to the city, Ye Chenghu had been happy and didn't think much about it. He only remembered that he was going to the city to have a wedding banquet.
When I heard this, I remembered that I had to get 100 points in the exam last year before I could go!
Why!
He glared at Ye Chengyang angrily, "I have to get 100 points in the test before I can go. Why can't you go without getting 100 points in the test? No! You can't go!"
Ye Chengyang also raised his chin and shouted to him: "Mom said the whole family will go, including me."
"You picked it up."
"You picked it up too."
"But I got 100 points on the test, but you didn't."
"Then the test paper you got back yesterday only had 80 points..."
They stared at each other cross-eyed, with their eyes wide open, as if this would give them an advantage.
However, while they were cursing each other, they stretched out their hands to push each other. I don’t know who pushed them first, and then they started to struggle together.
Ye Yaodong didn't care about them. He was very tired. He went to take a shower first and let them beat him to death.
Ye Xiaoxi squatted on the side curiously, watching them fight, and even clapped his hands and shouted "Come on."
"Brother, come on..."
"Brother, come on..."
"Second brother, come on..."
Ye Chenghu was so angry that he shouted at her, "Which side are you on?"
Ye Chengyang was suppressed to the bottom, but he still didn't forget to reply, "Call the second brother to come on, the eldest brother won't let you go!"
"Second brother, come on..."
"I'm so angry that you all can't go..."
Lin Xiuqing originally went into the house to put away the money and get clothes for Ye Yaodong to change, but when she heard the noise outside, she thought it was just a quarrel.
Unexpectedly, when I came out, I saw the two of them rolling into a ball and wrestling on the ground. I was so angry that I started to attack them with a whip.
However, after two strokes, she felt that it was not smooth. The whip was only suitable for beating when she was not wearing pants, so she immediately changed to a broom stick and closed the door at the same time.
Ye Chenghu was not afraid when he saw that everyone had taken the broom. He still stood there and said, "Why should you hit me? What I said is right..."
Ye Chengyang had already climbed up the stairs first and quickly ran back to the room to lock the door.
Ye Chenghu heard the sound of running and jumping on the floor upstairs, and realized that Ye Chengyang had already run away first.
"Ye Chengyang, don't run away, you're mad at me."
He quickly turned around to go upstairs, but it was already too late. Lin Xiuqing grabbed the clothes on the back of his neck and spanked him hard on the butt.
"Why hit me..."
"Why should I hit you? Why do you run so slowly?"
Ye Yaodong stood at the door, shirtless, rubbing his chest with a towel in his hand, and said lightly.
Lin Xiuqing glared at him, and continued to beat her son mercilessly, cursing: "We are making trouble again, why is it unbalanced? You left a year earlier than them, why are you still not happy? You still dare to fight, in
There was a lot of noise there.”
"Every day you feel that I am too idle, don't you? I have just been on vacation and I have to beat someone. The older they get, the more misbehaved they become. No wonder I see your two grandmothers next door beating their children like crazy every day. I really can't do it without beating them. Human beings
I hate dogs."
Ye Chenghu was grabbed and couldn't escape, so he could only hide behind Lin Xiuqing. In an instant, mother and son were chasing each other like they were spinning in circles.
"Why did you hit me?"
"Because it was you who started it, and you are the worst behaved one."
"Yangyang pushed me first, and then I pushed him. He hit me first."
"Big brother is bad!" Ye Xiaoxi said crisply as he stood aside.
"I haven't settled the score with you yet. I'll beat you to death later."
Chapter completed!
