Their eyes lit up when they heard this.
"Then I'll dance too."
Ten thousand to eight thousand, this is so valuable.
Ye Yaodong said to Azheng angrily: "Your life is worth more than others for nothing? 10,000 yuan can buy all of your lives."
"You can't say that. For other people, ten thousand or eight thousand yuan can't even break the bank, but for you, it's just a drop in the bucket."
"roll."
"When I jump, I can swim ashore, go out and play for ten days and a half, or a month, and then come back. If I have money and life, my family can support me like an ancestor."
"It's a beautiful thought. Go, get down now. If you don't jump, I'll throw you down."
Ah Zheng hurriedly hid behind him, "You're kidding me, if you jump in this cold weather, you'll be skinned even if you don't die."
"Hurry up and sign your names, so I won't be afraid if you fall into the sea."
A Guang said depressedly: "It's bad luck, it's the New Year, can't you think of something good?"
"It doesn't matter if it's not the New Year yet, just prepare for the worst."
"Fortunately, I brought you all here? Dongzi, you still have to thank me."
"What do you mean?"
"How many more people will be able to rescue me then will also allow you to lose less money. How about you pay a little now? I'll give you a discount then?"
"Just die, this can also lead to advanced consumption, why don't you die."
"Give me money and I'll die."
Ye Yaodong was too lazy to pay attention to them, "Be honest, don't run around, pee directly on the deck, don't go to the side. There isn't enough space on the bed, so you guys should squeeze in."
After driving them all to the cabin, he went to the cockpit.
He didn't call Fang Jingfu in advance and missed the call when he arrived. Fortunately, the workshop was still there and everyone was still working at his house.
He let others arrange their own accommodation, and went out to find a temporary place to make phone calls.
Fortunately, it was not dark when we arrived and we were able to find a place to make a phone call.
Then I chatted with the twins and talked about the recent activities in the workshop.
The others listened carefully, but they only half understood what they were saying, and they didn't bother to listen anymore.
After Fang Jingfu received the news, he rushed over without stopping while they were still having dinner.
They didn't start talking until after dinner. Because they didn't notify them in advance and whether they had brought the accounts over, they had to reconcile the accounts together tomorrow.
Ye Yaodong didn't care. He originally planned to stay another day tomorrow. To check the accounts, it would only take half a day.
That night they only chatted about the new construction site and the arrangements for when it was completed.
Fang Jingfu also said that he used the money he earned recently to order several machines for the production of spare parts.
I also took the name of the lighter and asked someone to make a drawing and trademark. When the time comes, I will have a production line to print it myself, making it look more formal.
In this way, pirated copies will not be as good as theirs, and they can still have a brand effect. This is what Ye Yaodong suggested when he came back last time.
"What's the name of the lighter? What's the name of the factory?"
"Tmd, I get angry when I talk about this. I'm taking a big advantage of you."
Ye Yaodong was a little puzzled, "How can I take advantage of you? I don't care about anything. I don't even know the name of the future lighter factory."
"That's why I'm so angry. It's all because you have a good name. It's called Ye Yaodong. You don't even know how good your "dong" character is."
"How good is it? I know my name well. When I was born, the sun rose in the east!"
"I just thought about combining the names of our three partners into a brand name, but my brother's name is not good, Fang Jingping, the "ping" is not easy to use. Your "dong" is very easy to use, and it is also suitable for placing
I have given you a big advantage in front of you. The fortune teller told me once that it would be better to use the word "东"..."
Ye Yaodong listened carefully to what he said for a long time before he finally understood.
"So it's called Dongfu?"
"Yes, I called Dongfu Lighter. Do you think it gave you a big advantage? I asked my husband to look at it. Fudong is not as good as Dongfu, so I suffered a big loss..."
Ye Yaodong grinned, "Thank you, brother, it doesn't matter what your name is. I wish our friendship will last forever and our cooperation will be happy."
"Who said names are not important? Of course names are important. It is related to our fortune. Only a good name can make a lot of money."
"Yes, yes, it's what you say. Let me tell you, my fish sauce is just like Dongsheng fish sauce. My shop is also called Dongshengji. My boat is called Dongshenghao. Anything with the word "东" is not bad.
It went smoothly.”
"Stop putting gold on your face. It doesn't matter if you have "blessings". Only when you are full of blessings can you have good luck."
"Yes, let us combine our swords..."
"Let me show you the trademark I asked someone to design..."
After chatting until midnight that day, they went to the construction site the next day to check on the progress. As expected, they would be able to move in in two months.
Ye Yaodong looked at the spacious open space and felt that he had a bright future.
After returning home, they continued to reconcile the accounts.
As for the other people he brought, he asked Aguang to take them out for a walk.
On this trip, the boatmen were not willing to stay at home doing handicrafts to earn money. It was a rare trip, and they wanted to take advantage of it and bring some specialties back to celebrate the New Year.
He was the only one left at home to reconcile accounts with Fang Jingfu.
The books are very clear, each order is recorded, and the date, order amount, and transaction date are also recorded.
Then there is also a manifest for the goods to be delivered to other workshops, including the number of each spare part, the order quantity, the delivery date, and the signature of the person receiving it.
There are incomings and outgoings, and the largest sums above are actually money for Fang Jingfu to order machines, as well as land purchases and gifts.
There is also an order when ordering the machine, and the deposit and final payment are clearly written down. Those who do not have an order are those who bought the land before and gave it as a gift.
There's no way to go into detail about this, and it was mentioned by Fu during my last trip.
"So the money earned during this period will be used to order machines?"
"There is still some left, we have ordered enough machines, and all the wages and materials at the construction site have been paid. During this time, we will buffer and accumulate some more. After paying the final payment for the machines, we will have money to share."
"Really or not? I think you can work harder than me. It's only been three months, and there is really no profit left. You have invested it all."
He chuckled and said, "There is still a little left. Spend it now so that you don't have to spend a lot of money in the future. Then just sit back and wait for the money to be collected. There are still six or seven thousand in the book. If you want to divide it, you can divide it."
"Forget it, I'm not that poor. What's the point of this little money? You still have to keep it to pay wages. Dozens of people are still working there. Work will start again in the next year, and you have to keep it for activities.
funds."
"Well, if the price increases after the new year, you will be rich immediately."
"Okay, just finish the reconciliation of the accounts. Regardless of whether there is any money distribution or not, the next year will be easy to do if the accounts are correct and clear."
"When will you go back? Will I buy some specialties for you to take back?"
"That's okay. You can also place an order for me again, for 10,000 units. Didn't the price increase a year ago?"
"You really know how to take advantage of loopholes."
"hehe……"
Ye Yaodong and Fang Jingfu finished talking before going out. They had lunch before going shopping together.
When he came, he also brought some local specialties from home to Fang Jingfu.
Now Fang Jingfu was sensible and planned to buy him some specialties as a gift in return. Ye Yaodong did not refuse even if they came and went.
In the afternoon, he also took the time to visit Zeng Weimin and presented him with the New Year's gift he had prepared.
Fang Jingfu followed him the whole time and knew that he was very good at getting things done, very good at climbing up the pole, and very talkative. He kept praising him for his greatness after he came out.
Ye Yaodong smiled and said nothing.
Anyway, everyone who understands understands.
In the evening, they packed up all the things they bought, and then Fang Jingfu also treated everyone brought by Ye Yaodong to dinner with dignity.
In the early morning of the next day, they boarded the ship and returned with the things they bought.
Everyone came prepared and bought nothing less.
Everyone has made a lot of money this year, and they don’t feel bad about spending it.
Even the boatmen are very willing to celebrate the New Year. In the past, they were reluctant to part with this and that. Once the Chinese New Year comes, they are willing to give up everything. They save from the beginning of the year to the end of the year and consume in a one-time revenge.
And speaking of it, those brought back from other provinces are more dignified.
Regardless of whether the item is good or bad, the farther away it is from, the harder it will be to bring it back, and it will be more worthy of bragging for everyone to get it.
After walking around for a long time, it was already 27 in the afternoon. It was rare for everyone to come back from other provinces, and everyone was very high-profile. They had already shown off on the pier.
When I returned to the village, I would tell everyone I met that I was so unhappy about where I had been in the past two days and what I had bought.
When Ye Yaodong returned home, he saw his two sons who were lively and vigorous again. However, they seemed particularly honest after being beaten just now.
Looking at the things he brought back, I wanted to take them but didn't dare to take them. My little eyes kept stealing glances at him, and then I asked when the adults finished speaking.
"Dad, is this for us?"
"Dad, do we have a share this time?"
Ye Yaodong waved his hand, "Take it for yourself, don't bully your sister."
Ye Chengyang muttered softly, "She has more than anyone else..."
"Who doesn't know that everything pink and red belongs to her, and everything without girls belongs to her."
"That's right, we have to share the rest with her..."
Ye Yaodong glanced sideways at the two of them, and they immediately stopped talking.
"Sister, this is for you..."
"Sister, this is yours too..."
"Promise..." Ye Yaodong whispered and then continued chatting with Lin Xiuqing about the factory over there.
Lin Xiuqing smiled and said: "We should just call him Dongsheng Lighter Factory."
"It's a beautiful thought. It's depressing enough to have my name in front of it. Fortunately, he has a big plan and doesn't care. The fortune teller will choose whichever one is better."
"I didn't expect that people there also believe in fortune telling, and they would also ask the gentleman to tell fortunes."
"It's all the same. If you believe it, you will have it. If you don't believe it, you will have nothing. It's all for the sake of good luck."
"I don't know what time you will come back, and I didn't leave any food for you. What do you want to eat?"
"I brought local specialties, and Fang Jingfu bought me a bunch of them. He said the noodles are called meat noodles and they are made of meat. Can you cook some meat noodles for me?"
Lin Xiuqing also looked through the things he brought back, saw brown ones one by one, grabbed a handful, and was a little curious.
"Can meat be used to make noodles? How to do this?"
"The same cooking method, add some seafood, add some vegetables, and fry a poached egg. He said the most important thing is to add a handful of coriander to make it more delicious."
"Well, our noodles are cooked with celery, so I'll try cooking them with cilantro for you."
"Um."
Ye Yaodong thinks this meat noodle has a special taste. Unlike noodles, it really tastes like meat. Sometimes you can even bite into the tendons, making it feel chewier.
He also gave Lin Xiuqing a bite, "Does it taste good? Take another bite, open your mouth... and some soup too..."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk..."
As soon as Ye Chenghu clicked his tongue a few times, he nudged Ye Chengyang with his elbow and motioned for him to look over.
Ye Chengyang turned around and saw the unkind eyes of his parents. He quickly covered his eyes with his hands, turned his head to the side, and ran away with the toys in his arms.
Ye Chenghu looked at his actions and felt that he seemed a bit conspicuous, so he quickly ran away holding his share.
Ye Xiaoxi didn't know what happened. He watched them run away one by one, then looked up at his parents. He was confused and then lowered his head to play with his toys.
"No matter how big or small they are, they all seemed honest once they met face to face, but it turned out they were all fake."
"My skin has been very tight for the past two days. At night, I saw that they had a share. I was a little carried away. Don't buy it next time. They have a lot of toys. How many children don't even have a decent pencil, and they still have it?"
Can have toys.”
"You are right. I will buy a batch of pencils and erasers in a while and send them to the school. When the school starts, I will ask the school teachers to distribute them to those children. It will be regarded as a good deed."
"That's okay. Those who are good at reading should be rewarded, and those who are average at reading should also be encouraged."
"Um."
Ye Yaodong stopped showing off his affection. The rare warm atmosphere where he and his wife were enjoying themselves was ruined by the scenery.
The children at home still receive too few immunizations, and they do not receive immunizations for three days.
He ate all the remaining noodles and soup before saying: "Go back to the house, sort out the coins at home, and go to the bank to exchange them tomorrow."
"You go first, I'll wash the dishes first."
"Then give me a foot wash by the way."
"knew."
Ye Yaodong let Ye Xiaoxi squat on the ground and play while he went back to the house first.
He was so tired, sailing the boat took a lot of energy, and the intense back and forth made him want to lie down on the bed immediately.
As soon as he took off his coat and pants, he lay down on the bed. His feet were not washed, but he was not lifted onto the bed.
After a while, he fell asleep comfortably on the soft bed.
As soon as Lin Xiuqing brought him hot water into the house, she saw that he had fallen asleep, his smelly feet wearing socks were still on the ground, and the room was filled with stench.
She frowned, shook her head helplessly, went up to him and took off his socks, lifted up the legs of his long johns, soaked his feet in the warm water, took his socks outside the door, and then came in again to give them to him.
He washes feet.
"Are you so tired? I would have known that I would rest at home for two days before going, and sleep as soon as I come back..."
"I just wanted to make you stewed ginseng for you to eat before going to bed. You haven't even taken the supplements I bought that day..."
She whispered softly while rubbing his feet. After wiping them clean, she helped him carry him to the bed, put down his trousers, and covered him with the quilt.
"Your hair is extremely dirty, and your pillow is yellow because of your sleep... You went to bed without washing your hair..."
Ye Yaodong was half asleep and half awake. Listening to her chanting, he directly pulled the quilt over his head and turned over to face inside.
Lin Xiuqing was worried that the sound of moving the coins would be too loud, so she saw that he was asleep so she didn't go to take them. She planned to take them out and sort them out in the morning and let him have a good sleep first.
Ye Yaodong does feel a little tired. Running around all the time is not necessarily physically tiring, but psychologically tiring. There is no better harbor or better place to rest than home.
He went to bed early at night and woke up refreshed the next morning.
Looking at the two sleeping faces beside him, one big and one small, he kissed this one and that one with his unbrushed mouth.
If you feel full and warm, if you have had enough sleep, and if you feel refreshed, you will still be able to do the same.
Lin Xiuqing was also awakened by the sound of his hands and feet.
"Are you awake so early?"
"Um."
"What time does the bank open?"
"8:30, right? It's only 6:30 now, very early."
"Then get up when you wake up..."
"It's rare to rest, so lie down more. The quilt is so warm. It's too cold early in the morning and the sun hasn't risen yet."
Lin Xiuqing slapped his hand away, "Why don't I know what you want to do?"
The two lingered until 7:30, when Ye Xiaoxi suddenly woke up and sat up before pretending that nothing had happened and separated.
Ye Yaodong first put on his pants under the quilt before getting up to get dressed and go out.
The couple pretended that nothing happened and started a new morning.
After breakfast, they went into the house and took out several large jars of coins that they had saved at home. They were so full that they couldn't even fit on the table.
Lin Xiuqing also held a can in her arms, "Would you like to keep some?"
"No need to keep them. Don't you still have banknotes tied with rubber bands? Take them all and exchange them for some new change."
Her eyes lit up, "Yes, we can exchange the old ones for new ones, then I'll take out all the banknotes."
"Just exchange it for a few cents or cents. Once you've counted the amount, you'll exchange it for the Great Unity. Leave one or two hundred yuan to exchange for new banknotes."
"Okay, then you go out and bring a sack in, otherwise it will be difficult to put it in. These jars have to be packed in sacks so that they are not conspicuous."
"good."
They use leftover cans of malted milk to store coins. Every month, the three little ones in the family drink two or three cans. Each can is 800 grams, which is quite a big can.
At this time, there were 10 items on the table, and those that were not enough were piled up. They were filled with one cent, two cents, and five cents, 1 cent, 2 cents, and 5 cents. They were all taken back from Lin's father after the accounts were reconciled in the past two years.
.
Use a little to accumulate a lot, and accumulate it bit by bit into several cans.
They started talking about taking it to the bank to exchange it last year, and they kept talking about it until this year. Now that the Chinese New Year is approaching, they plan to take action.
There were a lot of cash notes, and Lin Xiuqing also took out four jars. Inside were bundles of notes, with varying amounts, but they were all sorted.
The portion is not heavy, it is a light can.
Ye Yaodong came in and took a look. He felt that a snakeskin bag was not enough, so he went out to get another one.
"Why are there so many? They're all change."
"Don't tell me how many years it has been accumulated? Pack it up and carry it out. Give me a bag to resist."
"Wait for me to come."
Lin Xiuqing had already carried it on her back, "Why is it so valuable? This little weight is nothing. I used to carry millet and carry burdens all the time."
Ye Yaodong shut up immediately.
If he spoke again, he would probably mention that he could no longer lift with his hands or carry on his shoulders.
"How are we going to get there?"
"Ride a motorcycle so that people at the bank won't look down on you."
"Oh, it's still like this."
"Otherwise, do you think that people would be happy to ask someone to do it with two sacks? If I just send you back without saying anything, you still have nothing to do."
"That's true. It will take most of the day to count these."
"Well, everyone is snobbish. Respect Luo Shan first and then others."
"Then put it in the truck bed."
There were only a few dogs huddled in the carriage. Ye Yaodong took the sack off his shoulders and swung them one by one before driving them off.
"It's a good thing I ran fast, otherwise I would have crushed you to death and eaten dog meat during the Chinese New Year."
Lin Xiuqing smiled and put her own on it. Worried about the instability, she fixed it with a rope and tied it up.
After the three little ones at home got new toys yesterday, they couldn't help but share them everywhere today, so they didn't know they were going to go out on a motorcycle.
It was only when the motorcycle passed through the village that they realized what was going on. Then they chased after the motorcycle with shouts, but failed to catch up. They stamped their feet angrily.
Ye Yaodong and Lin Xiuqing went to the bank where it opened.
These days, the Post and Telecommunications Bureau is also a quiet office, with little deposits, loan business, and electricity business.
So when the two parked their motorcycles at the door, they had already attracted the attention of the staff inside. They were so surprised that they all ran out to take a look.
Although there are one or two in the town, they are rare, and they are only three-wheeled.
"Comrade, are you two here to do business at the post and telecommunications office?"
The two of them saw that Ye Yaodong was dressed like a human being. He didn't look like a countryman at all. He was still riding a motorcycle and had a particularly good attitude.
Ye Yaodong smiled and helped Lin Xiuqing down, "Yes, we are here to exchange money. I wonder if you are busy? It is working time now, right?"
Both of them smiled and nodded, "I'm not busy. I'm still serving the people."
"Okay, then go in and talk."
Ye Yaodong told the dogs who followed him out because they were optimistic about the motorcycle, so they carried two sacks of cans in. After a while, the faces of the two bank staff turned green.
"This...all of these need to be replaced?"
"Yes, sorry for the trouble, comrades. Fortunately, you are not busy. If you were, I would not be embarrassed to change so much."
The two looked at each other, both wanting to slap themselves in the mouth.
"Comrade, you are doing too much..."
"It's a bit much. I earned hard-earned money, just a few cents, so I accumulated so much. I thought I would just exchange it for a larger amount, so as to save space."
Ye Yaodong smiled and said again: "I'm sorry to trouble you two comrades. I don't know if we can help with the counting. You still have to order it in person. If you can only order it in person, then...it will be hard on you..."
He even hung up a bit in a bad way, making people expect him to say forget it, but he said thank you for your hard work.
"We have to do this ourselves."
"Otherwise, exchange half of it first. You have too much change."
"Okay, you can order as much as you can before get off work today. Thank you for serving the people."
He looked at the names of their work badges on their chests again, stretched out his hand to look at them, and said, "Comrade Xu, Comrade Jin, you work hard and you should be rated as advanced, right? I will definitely give you great praise."
The two of them looked embarrassed and had no choice but to squat down and take stock.
Lin Xiuqing smiled at his mischief.
Ye Yaodong pulled her over to sit on a chair next to her, watching the two staff squatting on the ground and sighing as they opened all the cans, and then selected the banknotes to count first.
And I heard them whispering that they should first count the banknotes and free up the containers before putting the remaining coins, one bucket per person...
Lin Xiuqing was afraid of affecting their counting of money and whispered: "How long will they have to count?"
"If I don't make mistakes and start over again, I should be able to finish counting before I get off work at noon..."
Among them, a male staff member named Jin paused for a moment, and his face turned ugly for a moment.
Ye Yaodong watched him turn over the banknotes in his hand and start counting them one by one from the beginning.
The couple looked at each other, and then made a gesture on their lips at the same time, "Shh..."
The two of them sat there leisurely with their legs crossed, looking at the two squatting on the ground and counting.
After counting the banknotes, they took a piece of paper and wrote the number on it, then put it in a rubber band, put it aside and continued counting coins.
The sound of the coins becomes louder, and they have to concentrate more on counting to avoid counting mistakes and starting over again.
Lin Xiuqing looked at the two people on the ground with their heads bent. They had changed from squatting to sitting, and then from sitting cross-legged to sitting with legs spread apart. There was no image at all.
Ye Yaodong's sitting posture also changed from upright to downward, his legs were spread apart, and his buttocks were almost under the stool. It had only been half an hour.
"It would be nice to have a sofa."
The staff member surnamed Jin paused again, then looked at the ceiling with blank eyes, then lowered his head and swiped the coins he had just counted into a pile together again.
Fortunately, they didn't count from the beginning to the end. When they reached 50, they would make a pile first, and then draw two piles to make a 100, so as to avoid having to start over from the beginning if they counted incorrectly.
Lin Xiuqing looked at the man's actions, suppressed laughter, slapped him, and stretched out her index finger to make a shush sound on her mouth.
Ye Yaodong also smiled and did not dare to speak any more.
But as time passed, he couldn't hold it in anymore, and dogs barked outside from time to time. Although he knew nothing would happen, he wanted to go out and take a look.
"How about I go out and take a look, my legs are numb, and the dog barks from time to time. Are you here to watch?"
Lin Xiuqing waved her hand, indicating that he could do whatever he wanted.
Ye Yaodong's legs were numb after sitting for a long time. He rubbed them a few times before getting up and walking out.
When he stood at the door, he stretched out greatly. Only halfway, he saw a bunch of people surrounding his motorcycle.
The dogs that had followed him out were being surrounded, grinning at the people around them.
He thought it was a passer-by who was approaching, so the dog barked just now. At this time, some annoying children were beating the dog with sticks wherever he approached.
"What are you doing? Where did the kid come from? It's up to the owner to beat a dog."
When the dogs heard his voice, they immediately squeezed out of the crowd and kept barking.
Ye Yaodong patted their dogs' heads comfortingly, "I will give you extra food when I go back tonight and buy some pig lungs for you to eat."
"Why are you selling this dog? You raise so many of them to sell them, right? It happens to be the Chinese New Year..."
The dogs barked louder.
"I'm not selling it. I'm raising a janitor. Let's all leave. Otherwise, if the motorcycle breaks down somewhere, I'll have to rely on you. This one costs tens of thousands."
Everyone was so frightened that they immediately took a few steps back for fear of being hit.
"How can it break if we just touch it twice?"
Ye Yaodong has nothing to be angry about. Everyone likes to watch the excitement and see rare things.
He didn't explain anything and just got on his motorcycle to guard here. A bunch of dogs also surrounded him, standing or squatting.
The people around me didn't dare to touch it anymore, they only dared to watch from a distance.
Ye Yaodong felt like he had become a monkey now, and everyone passing by had to take a look.
Some people don't know what's here, but they just see people around and want to come and join in the fun.
It says there will be a chapter in the early morning, so there will be.
Chapter completed!
