After Boss Zhang left, everyone packed up the things on the boat, and then those who needed to go to sea went to sea, and those who needed to go home went home.
A large group of people walked home in a mighty manner.
The people on the dock automatically took a detour, followed them with their eyes, pointed, and continued talking about the release of the animals just now.
After everyone went back, some rested and some cooked.
Ye Yaodong took advantage of the meal to chat with his father about the recent income. The two of them checked the accounts together and counted the money until they were weak.
We calculated it again, and after lunch, we got up and went together to remit 10,000 yuan back.
He didn't dare to remit too much money at once, nor did he remit it too frequently. He was worried that it would be unsafe for Lin Xiuqing to withdraw it. 10,000 yuan was a big package, and he would probably be questioned if he went too many times.
So I can only remit 10,000 occasionally and keep the rest in my hand.
Father Ye also told him that some time ago, he went to a layman to get 10 guns, equipped with ammunition, and only charged 5,000 yuan, and asked him to pick up 10 more guns in a week.
Doing the math, it's almost time.
Ye Yaodong was happy for a moment, and thought about going to the house tomorrow to chat and say hello. He didn't expect it to be so powerful. He originally thought he could only hold ten handfuls, but he didn't expect he could still hold them in a few days.
There was nothing he could do at sea before, but now that he is back, he must thank him. Boss Zhang invited him anyway?
I just happened to bring some gifts for a visit.
If there are 20 guns, then everyone will be equipped with one, and the safety factor will be greatly increased, and the confidence and security will be gained to continue to stay here and make a lot of money.
He didn't know where ordinary people lived, and the few times they met occasionally were in the factory, so the next day, he went directly to the factory with cigarettes and alcohol to find people.
Of course, what he was carrying was definitely not the gift from someone before, but the wine he went out to buy again, and the two imported cigarettes he brought from home.
The doorman in the factory was also very familiar with him. When he saw him, he directly told him that Zhang Rensu had been here in the morning, and also told him that he would be taken directly to the reception room when he came.
Ye Yaodong laughed and walked in the direction pointed by the guard.
The door of the reception room was open and there was no one inside. He casually found a wooden chair and sat down. The doorman would definitely go and find Zhang Rensu.
He knocked left and looked right, thinking that when he went back, he would have to build a reception room like this in the factory. He didn't need a sofa, just a set of mahogany chairs and a tea set.
Just as he was touching the stool, Zhang Rensu came in from outside.
"I just guessed you would come over today."
"Did your uncle say that?"
"Yes, he came back yesterday and mentioned that he saw you on the pier yesterday. He also praised you several times and invited you to come over. I just thought that since you came back today, you should come over this morning."
After Zhang Rensu sat down, he picked up the hot water bottle next to him to make tea.
"I've got 10 more guns. I'll bring them back to you later."
"Thank you. Without you, I wouldn't be able to get someone who is unfamiliar with the place." Ye Yaodong said as he took out the money he had prepared in advance in his backpack and pushed it to him.
But Zhang Rensu pushed back, "I'll give these 10 guns to you. Because of what I said a few days ago, my uncle went to the government to get two more large pieces of land, and he will probably continue to get more."
land."
Ye Yaodong glanced at the money in front of him and didn't touch it, "You didn't buy it?"
"Haha, I also bought a few shabby houses on Fish Market Street."
"Is the trading market open?"
"It was mentioned that the plan has been made this year, but it is still being planned. It will probably be promoted appropriately, but it is not clear where the plan is."
Ye Yaodong slammed the table excitedly, "Fish Market Street!"
"Are you so sure? Even our locals are not sure."
"I guessed based on my clever mind."
"It won't be a loss anyway, just wait and see. This kind of planning cannot be done in a few days or months, but there is so much chaos outside the dock, and the trading places are all formed spontaneously. This won't work in the long term. You must plan."
"That's right."
Zhang Rensu smiled and said, "I heard that you have more than 20 large ships and you have hundreds of boatmen here?"
"The big and small boats combined are about the same."
"He's the president of the Fisheries Association in Vancouver? Why isn't he from your local area?"
"It's the same locally, but it's just a false name. It's useless to say it's useful. If you say it's not useful, it's of some use. It can show off."
"That's pretty cool. My uncle said that if he had known that you were the fishery association president of another city, he should have used this title a few days ago to talk about it. He said that it was the suggestion of the fishery association president of another city, and it might be promoted.
Let’s make some progress. Yesterday afternoon, the overseas Chinese held a small meeting with local businessmen and planned to fund the improvement of the trading market. After all, the government is just calling people poor and waiting for people to pay.”
Ye Yaodong smiled awkwardly, "Just the honorary vice president."
"That's enough. Social reputation is also important. But you are too young. When people look at you, they will say you are a liar."
"Isn't that right? Everyone judges people by their appearance. You have to be forty or fifty years old before others will think you are reliable. Otherwise, you will have no hair on your lips and will not be reliable in your work."
After speaking, he added: "Speaking of the fact that the pier has been charging berthing fees for a long time, how can the government be poor?"
"We donate money every year, but we have no money every year. Government buildings need to be built, ports need to be repaired, dams need to be built, roads need to be repaired, everything needs money..."
This is true...
The two of them hadn't chatted for a while before Boss Zhang arrived, and several of his sons also came to take a look out of curiosity.
Ye Yaodong exchanged polite greetings again, sat there and chatted for a while, taught others a lesson, drew a picture of the market's big cakes, and talked about the future prosperous fishery industry in the local area and the possible future economy.
and height of status.
In fact, it was all based on hearsay from his previous life, and his understanding of his previous life was a bit vague and general, but it was also more in line with the vision of the times.
If you think about it carefully, what he said is foreseeable and not just random talk.
After chatting happily all morning, before leaving, Ye Yaodong pushed back the money to buy the gun. He only said that it is only fair to pay for things.
If you think what he says is sound and not nonsense, if the market is going to be built then, let him know in advance and he will buy a few stalls or shops.
He did not dare to buy or sell some of his own land and houses, and since he was not in the area, those old shabby houses might be occupied by others at any time.
The land is secretly cultivated by others, and after a long period of cultivation, it becomes theirs. It is hard to explain, and it is useless to show the transaction contract to prove it.
But official market stalls and shops are still available. There are official people who coordinate and manage them, so you don't have to worry about being occupied.
He was just talking about it because he wanted to sell a favor, so that when the time came to make a fortune, he would be able to take advantage of it.
He has too much cash, and there is nothing more reliable than buying a house, a shop or land.
And a foreigner who is not familiar with the place can only rely on the protection of local bosses or official guarantees, otherwise the purchase will be in vain.
Now as long as you can buy reliably, you can buy as many shops, land and houses as you like, and you don’t have to worry about being spread out. When transportation develops in the future, it won’t matter if you buy from all over the world.
And now they all know his general details. Zhang Rensu has also been to his factory in the city. He has ships, people and factories, and he is already on the same footing as them.
Only when you have money and capital can your words be listened to.
What's more, now they also know that he has the official title of vice president. Although it can't bring him any benefits, he still has social status.
At least what you say will be more convincing and listenable, which is a natural bonus.
Otherwise, if a common man brags a lot to you, and if it makes sense, he will make peace with it in his heart, but whoever is being polite to you is not on the same level at all, and most people will not listen to you.
5,000 yuan, both cash and goods, is still a favor. If you use it in the market in the future, you will make a lot of money.
He is really worth 5,000 yuan now.
Ye Yaodong carried the gun in a sack with a pile of straw inside to prevent the protruding shape from causing people to guess what it was and causing harassment.
As he walked, he thought, after having this, other people don't know what to do. His workers probably have a full sense of security. They will have no problem making money to celebrate the New Year, and they are also guaranteed.
His father also got the knife he ordered from the blacksmith shop two days ago, which is double protection.
When he took it back, the workers' eyes lit up.
"You can do it with one hand, and now you don't have to worry about someone who is short-sighted."
"Haha, then I have to stay until the Chinese New Year to earn more..."
"Finally I don't have to worry anymore."
"It's better to follow A Dongqiang, at least the safety seems to be much more guaranteed..."
Ye Yaodong waited for them to finish reading and then put these things away again.
Giving them a look is to give them a sense of security so that they can work for him with peace of mind.
But the things had to be put away in his and his father's hands, not in their hands.
He redistributed the quantity and picked a few more handfuls to take to the ship. After he had enough rest the day after tomorrow, he continued to go to sea. His father was at home.
But when he drove the fishing boat not far out of the port, he saw a large fishing boat floating in front of him. It looked like it was forty or fifty meters tall.
What surprised him was that the fishing boat didn't start at all. Instead, it drifted with the wind and waves, and its drifting position also blocked his original route, so he could only control it a little bit.
"Fuck..."
"It's almost docking. We can't leave the ship alone while we wait for the berthing arrangements..."
After he cursed a few times, he noticed that this boat seemed a little unusual.
Boats of 40 to 50 meters are not uncommon in this port. There are also many fishing boats from the former fishing brigade, as well as some large boats from fishing companies.
He didn't take a second look at it now, and he wasn't curious. Even if the deck of the ship was covered with a large nylon bag, he just thought it was a cargo ship.
But such a large fishing boat has already arrived at the port and is drifting with the current, which is a bit abnormal.
Ye Yaodong had some questions in his mind and kept staring curiously.
Just after leaving the shore, the fishing boat itself was not moving very fast.
Looking at this fishing boat, he always felt that something was wrong.
After thinking for a while, he saw that the fishing boat was still drifting into the port with the wind and waves and did not stop because it almost hit him. He then realized that it was because there was no one on the boat and no one in the cockpit.
.
It was only possible that there was no one on the boat floating like this, and it almost hit his boat.
If he didn't deviate from his position, he would have really hit him.
I originally thought that the person might be resting in the cabin, but since we were almost docking, we didn't control it.
Now that I think about it, it is entirely because there is no one on board that this happens.
The boatmen on the deck were already calling the boat stupid and almost hit them.
Collisions between fishing boats like this happened frequently in the past, and no one thought much about it.
But when Ye Yaodong turned the ship around and returned, everyone was stunned.
"Why did you turn around?"
"What's going on with A Dong..."
"Why did you suddenly turn around?"
"Oh shit, I bumped into..."
"Crash!!!"
The boatmen were originally surprised that Ye Yaodong suddenly turned the bow of the boat, thinking that something had fallen.
When I turned around, I saw that the 40- to 50-meter-long ship had collided with another 30-meter-long ship.
There was also a series of collisions. There was another 40-meter fishing boat that was about to leave the port at the same time. The three boats collided one after another.
Fortunately, the surrounding fishing boats are not concentrated. Large ships generally do not dock easily, and the docking points of other small boats are not in this area. Otherwise, the fishing boats leaving the port would be even denser.
Ye Yaodong was also surprised. After he got a little closer, he stopped the ship and came down to the deck to take a look.
"We've seen something good now, but I don't know if there will be a fight..."
"Is that fishing boat sick? It almost hit us. Fortunately, we avoided it, but it actually hit two in a row."
"This horse riding horse, such a wide sea..."
Ye Yaodong said: "There was no one on that boat and no one was in control, so it could only drift with the wind and waves."
"ah!"
"There's no one on board? What do you mean..."
"Why is there no one on the boat?"
“Ghost Ship??”
"Damn it, don't be scary in broad daylight..."
"I thought the fishing boat was about to dock, so I turned off the engine and waited for the fishing boat to be picked up at the pier. I didn't think much about why I didn't anchor..."
Ye Yaodong said: "I have thought too much. Where did the ghost ship come from? The so-called ghost ship is just the people on the ship who crashed. No one is in control of the fishing boat, so it floats on the sea and looks scary."
"The fishing boat without people is a ghost ship..."
He added: "This is a cargo ship. It is probably a real casualty. There are still goods on the deck. Moreover, the ship does not look old. It does not look like it has been floating for a long time. It is also covered with nylon bags. Maybe
It's slowly drifting in with the wind direction in recent days."
"That's such a coincidence..."
"What a coincidence, the area around here is an archipelago. If the wind direction does not change, it will float not only here, but also at other piers."
"Then it's only the two fishing boats that are unlucky. Anyone who encounters an ownerless cargo ship will have no power to scold them."
"Fortunately we hid quickly."
"The management ship is here..."
At this time, there were also several fishing boats watching the excitement around, all of which were preparing to go out to sea, so there was no rush for the moment.
Ye Yaodong was not in a hurry. Since it was an ownerless ship, it should have been immediately seized by the dock. The two ships that were hit could not find anyone to compensate, so they could only admit that they were unlucky.
The matter will not delay for too long, nor will it delay everyone's departure to sea. He plans to see it through.
He was more interested in the ownerless ship, but of course, the prerequisite was that it couldn't be a ghost ship.
While everyone was watching the excitement, several people from the management ship climbed onto the ship to take a look.
I saw only a few people checking separately. Some went to the warehouse for a walk, some ran to the wheelhouse, and some stood on the deck to check the cargo covered by nylon bags.
Suddenly, the nylon belt was pulled and the tip of the iceberg was lifted, and Ye Yaodong's eyes widened.
"Holy shit, car!"
"What? A car?"
"Why didn't I see it? I looked at the wheelhouse..."
"You were hit in the eye by a cannon. Didn't you see the red car?"
Not only did they see it, other fishing boats also screamed in surprise.
A small car!
What a shock!
Whether this pile of goods is small household appliances, or food, tobacco and alcoholic beverages, it would not be that surprising.
The person who inspected it reacted quickly. After seeing what was covered, he covered the bag again and told others.
They couldn't hear what was being said over there, but this didn't affect the excited discussions on board at all.
"Why is there a car here..."
"Could it be smuggled in?"
"Can't it be a legitimate way? For example, it was transported from Shanghai? Then something went wrong on the road, so it ended up here?" Ye Yaodong said analytically.
"It's possible!"
"But I heard that there are a lot of smugglers in the south..."
"It's two different things. It's also produced in China. It's hard to say. Anyway, there's no need to guess. Just know that this ship is transporting cars. I don't know how many there are."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, I didn't expect that the boat transporting the car could float here after being in trouble."
"Damn, if we go out to sea earlier and encounter it earlier, can we capture this boat?"
Everyone felt regretful when they saw this.
Ye Yaodong also took a deep breath, but relaxed again, "That's a good idea. If we go out to sea early before dawn, we will encounter a ghost ship, which will scare you to death."
"Haha, that's true."
"We won't pay attention to it if we encounter it. It's for no reason. This boat is bigger than us. There are no special circumstances. Who dares to approach casually? Aren't you afraid of being trapped?"
"It's a pity that docks are cheap now, whether it's a boat or a car."
He nodded, but it was not a huge bargain for the dock, but a bargain for the Coast Guard, and it would definitely be confiscated.
But even if he found it and recognized it at sea, he would not be able to do anything.
There should be a boat and four cars. Does he dare to drive directly to the shore, or does he dare to drive directly home?
One car is fine, but what do you think of 4 cars?
"Should the car on this ship need to be lifted ashore by a crane?"
"You should notify the Coast Guard first, right?"
"Should we watch here, should we dock first, or should we go directly to sea?"
Ye Yaodong said: "When they sail to the shore, we will follow them back to the port to have a look. It won't be a problem if we are delayed for half a day or a day."
"That's great, I haven't even seen a car a few times."
"Just in time to watch them lift the car."
Chapter completed!
