Chapter 1383 Meeting an acquaintance
After he finished calculating the general ledger, his father had also finished counting the money. He was so happy that he turned the money over and continued counting.
Ye Yaodong looked at a whole sack of money, thought about it, took out another 20,000, and put it in the quilted jacket he would wear tomorrow.
It’s the end of October, and I have to wear sweaters and jackets every day, not to mention a cotton-padded jacket when going out at sea.
He hid the money in the middle layer of his cotton-padded jacket, which was just right.
Father Ye looked at his strange behavior and asked.
"What are you doing? You said it's not safe to put it in the lockbox and it's too conspicuous, so why don't you just put it in a sack? And you want to hide it in your clothes?"
"A cunning rabbit has three burrows and hides everywhere, just in case."
"oh."
After Ye Yaodong hid the money, he also hid the passbook, deposit slip, and land registration slip in his cotton-padded jacket. He was really worried about putting it in his suitcase because it was too conspicuous.
Seeing him like that, Ye's father also hid 2,000 yuan in the middle layer of his cotton-padded jacket.
"Oh, I have never saved so much money in my life. I just spent it once and then lost it."
"Now there is."
"Haha, if I work with you for a year, I will have to save more than your mother?!"
"Wipe your saliva and don't get carried away when you go home. Otherwise, my mother will guess it and I will give you money."
"I know, I must keep it tight, otherwise if I fart, she will know what I have eaten."
Ye Yaodong wrinkled his nose. Not only his mother knew, but he also knew, Mad!
After the row of houses opposite is built, let his father sleep in his own room instead of sharing a room with his father.
"You have saved so much money, how are you going to spend it?"
"Flowers? Why do I need flowers?" Father Ye shook his head and clutched his cotton-padded jacket tightly, looking terribly distressed.
"If I don't spend it, I'll just save it. I'm so happy when I see more and more money in my book. I won't spend it."
Ye Yaodong laughed when he saw his father.
"You just save it and don't spend it?"
"If you don't spend it, I'll eat your food, drink your food, and spend your money. Why should I spend anything else? If you don't spend it, just save it. Save a lot. If you need money, I'll go to your mother. This way the secret will not be exposed."
"That's right, ask my mother for more money. This will make it appear that you are poor and have no money, so she won't suspect that you are hiding private money."
Father Ye nodded, "That's right."
"Then when you get old, you take out the money and distribute it. Aren't you just a piggy bank?"
"That's not true. This money cannot be divided. The money I save will only be given by you. When I get old, of course this money will be given to you, or to your family's three children."
What Father Ye said was serious, not joking at all.
After saying that, he ignored his surprise and said: "What your mother has in her hand is just used to give four cents to you brothers and sisters, but the gold you bought will definitely be left to you when the time comes. Whoever buys it will leave it to whom."
, this is only fair.”
"Are you really using it as a piggy bank for me? You're still thinking far ahead, and you've already planned this?"
"I'm an old man. How much money can I spend? I don't have to worry about food or clothing. I just keep the money in my hand and look happy. Of course it belongs to whoever belongs to me. I will save it for you and leave it to you.
There is no way out, you are too troublesome."
Father Ye was rarely kind to him, and his words were particularly heart-warming.
Ye Yaodong was moved by his father's fatherly love.
"I am indeed your biological child!"
"Bastard, of course you are my biological child. You don't look like me. Can you blame me?"
"I blame my grandma for making you look like my father."
Father Ye glared at him and said, "Go to bed quickly and go home tomorrow."
"Well, Dad, how much money have you saved for your private life?"
"You're asking about it now? I'm not dead yet."
"It's all mine anyway, let me know in advance?"
Father Ye blew his beard and glared angrily, regretting saying that, he should have spent it instead of telling him to keep it for him.
"Whatever I spend is yours, go to sleep."
Although Ye Yaodong doesn't really care what his parents do with their own money, since he has given it away, he can naturally spend it however they want and give it to whomever they want.
But what his father said moved him a little, it was so clear and so comforting.
He is indeed his biological father.
Even if the bowl of water is not level, I will try my best to carry it.
On the early morning of the second day of the Lunar New Year, everyone got up, and there was a constant clanging sound, and they were all carrying things to take back.
Yesterday, a salary was paid or the accounts were settled. Everyone had money in their pockets and was about to go home again. Everyone was beaming and happier than during the New Year.
The open space in front of me was also filled with goods and baskets from various houses, but there was no luggage.
Ye Yaodong stretched and said, "It's better to work like this. I'll go home once every two months, stay for a few days before coming back, and work for another two months before going back."
Father Ye answered, "It's just a little far away..."
"If you have money to make, why should you be afraid of going far away? If you have money to make, let me go to Japan and make a lot of money, and I'm willing to do it."
"What are you talking about? Let's call a tractor to pull the goods after breakfast later. We have a lot of goods."
"Um."
After Ye Yaodong washed up, he went to eat and walked around with his rice bowl to see what everyone had brought back.
By the way, I also took a look at a few puppies. The little ones were wet when they were born. After a few days, they have grown a lot and their hair has become smooth. However, they still cling to the mother and refuse to come out of the nest.
He moved the sweet potatoes in the bowl into the cage and watched as several puppies came over to lick them with their noses raised.
"It's better to feed local dogs. You guys... come here..."
Ye Yaodong took the opportunity to tell the few workers who were left behind and asked them to take care of several dogs.
These four people who stayed behind voluntarily stayed after their own discussions and phone calls to their families.
Of course he also gave them double wages for these days.
It used to be 4.5 yuan a day, but now it’s 9 yuan a day. Who wouldn’t do it?
Everyone is rushing to do it and would rather not go home!
It's so easy to earn. Dozens of people discussed and discussed before allocating 4 people. It's fair.
Ye Yaodong didn't care about their discussion, he just wanted to give him a result anyway.
After he also explained what he needed to explain, he went out to find a car to pull the goods, and the others also looked for a car to share the car.
Everyone was busy for a while, and when the sun came out, all the goods were brought to the dock for loading.
At this time, Ye Yaodong met an acquaintance!
Someone tapped him on the shoulder, and when he turned around to look, his jaw almost dropped. Chen...Chen Jiannian...
"Brother..."
"I thought I was wrong, but it turns out I was right. You are really A Dong. Why are you here?"
"Me? I came here to fish. Why are you here? You scared me."
"Haha, there is no place for me back home, so I can only make a living everywhere, so I ended up here."
"You... I don't know what to say. I can only say that you are unlucky and have a bad time."
Chen Jianian laughed at himself, "Yeah, I thought I could make a lot of money, but I didn't expect that natural and man-made disasters forced me to leave my hometown and killed a lot of people. That's why I reacted quickly at that time, otherwise my whole family would have to join in."
Ye Yaodong didn't know what to say.
Is this Chen Jiannian’s fault? It’s not entirely to blame. Everyone wants to make money, but natural disasters and man-made disasters are really poorly managed. If you are not careful, you can easily harm others and yourself.
At that time, a few were killed in a gunfight at the small pier where jellyfish were collected, and some of the remaining ones were captured. Some of the ones that escaped were taken in by him and sent back later.
A bunch of people from the town came to their village to cause trouble, but he later pushed them to the border guards to deal with them.
In the end, the solution was neither better nor worse.
If the circumstances are minor, I would go to the border control station and ask my family to pay a ransom to get my family back, but I would almost lose everything and be in debt.
If the circumstances are serious, he will still be sentenced, no matter how much his family cries and screams, there is nothing they can do.
Those who died had no choice but to have their families travel across provinces to claim the bodies. Those who were buried had to be dug up and buried in their own ancestral graves without any compensation.
They tried to find Chen Jianian but could not find him anywhere.
Please...you...collect_(Six\\\Nine\\\Books\\\!)
I didn't expect to meet him here.
Chen Jianian should compensate the families of the victims, but this was considered an unwarranted disaster. No one wanted to encounter this, and they all wanted to make money happily.
Ye Yaodong didn't know how to answer the call, so he didn't answer it.
"I don't know what happened back home after I came out. Can you tell me?"
Ye Yaodong thought for a moment and told what happened after he left.
Chen Jianian's expression was also very painful and tortured. When he heard that an old lady committed suicide by drinking pesticide because her son was dead and her grandson was in jail, her eyes turned red on the spot, she covered her face with her hands and cried bitterly.
"Many of them are relatives and friends...folks from the countryside. It's my fault..."
"Two years have passed and I have regained my composure. Now I can only earn more money and then go home to compensate my relatives, friends and fellow villagers."
Otherwise, what else could we do? Regreting now will not help. If I had not run away at that time, I would have had to vent my anger on myself and my whole family because of the anger of the villagers.
Although running away is hateful, it will not help if the whole family loses their lives. It can only be remedied after the fact.
Ye Yaodong didn't say anything after saying this, waiting for Chen Jiannian to stabilize his mood first.
Workers are still loading the goods onto the ship, and he can't leave.
After waiting for a while, Chen Jianian calmed down.
"I can only make up for it when I get rich before I can go back to my hometown. Are you here again to chase the flood season?"
Ye Yaodong responded without saying anything else.
He actually didn't want to communicate more with Chen Jianian.
Who knows if people will remember him?
After all, he was the one who led them there in the first place, and then he and Aguang shorted half of their profits.
There is nothing wrong with the world's pursuit of profit, and they did not use any means. He felt that he was right.
"This place has become more and more lively in the past few years, and the immigrant population has increased. The boats are following the flood season, and the fishermen who come here are making less money."
"Fishermen earn their hard-earned money, and businessmen earn more. More and more businessmen and fishmongers are coming here. What are you doing now, working as an intermediary?"
"Just like the fish traders you mentioned, they transport goods and resell them back and forth across the Taiwan Strait."
"That should make good money."
"Fortunately, are you going to sea now?"
"Planning to go home, what about you?"
"Going home at this time? Isn't this the season for shrimps and hairtail? I'm planning to transport a boatload of shrimps to the provincial capital of Fujian Province."
While Chen Jianian was talking, he also pointed to a cargo ship next to him. There was a lot of goods piled on it, either in sacks or wooden boxes. A dozen workers on the ship were covering it with nylon bags.
"Is this boat all yours?"
"How is that possible? If I had this ability, I would have boldly returned to my hometown to compensate my fellow villagers, so I wouldn't need to hide outside. This is a cargo ship going to Fujian Province. My cargo happens to be on this ship, so I will go with it.
"
"Oh, then it looks like the goods are all packed. It's probably about to open. I wish you a safe journey."
He nodded, "Then I'll leave first. If you go back, we'll probably be heading in the same direction."
Ye Yaodong also nodded and watched him go first.
As soon as Chen Jia Nian left, Father Ye quickly came forward.
"Hang Tian, Dongzi, why is he here? I was shocked. I just saw it and I was too embarrassed to come over."
"Why are you so embarrassed? We didn't do anything wrong."
"Didn't you hear that he ran away? How did he get here?"
"I ran away, that's why I met you here. This is not a port. Fish products are well developed and abundant. It is normal for people from the seaside to come here to make money."
"What is he doing here? What did he just say? Why do you still have anything to say to him? People like him have run away..."
"He tapped me on the shoulder, and I was shocked, but I didn't do anything wrong. Why should I avoid him? He asked me about the situation in the town behind him, and I told him the truth.
.”
Ye Yaodong repeated to his father what he had just said and Chen Jianian's reaction.
Father Ye sighed with regret after hearing this.
"He is quite unlucky, but he still has the heart to go back and make amends. He is not too heartless."
Ye Yaodong said: "If this thing really happens, no matter who it is, they will definitely have to run away. First, make sure that you are important to the whole family. Things have already happened, and you have to have the ability to make up for it."
"You are right. Although it is hateful that he ran away, he is still unlucky. Even if he takes his own life, the matter cannot be undone."
"Don't talk about him. We are all right. There are so many people here, and we may not meet him again in the short term. He is also working as a businessman now, transporting and selling goods back and forth, and he probably makes a good profit."
"That's good."
"Is the cargo loaded? It's loaded and we're ready to leave."
"It's still a little bit worse. Do you want to go and see how the other ships are doing? By the way, go to Aguang and talk about it?"
"Okay."
It's not that far away.
When Ye Yaodong went to look for A Guang, they were all on board, untying the ropes and preparing to leave the port. They moved the cargo very quickly and everything was ready.
He simply didn't say anything. Anyway, it would be too late to go to the small channel to talk after he got on the ship.
After seeing that several ships were preparing to leave the port, he returned to his own ship, which was almost loaded with cargo.
"Are you ready? The other ships have left port."
"Everyone's gone? We've also moved it here. You can get on the boat quickly and just sort out the rest on the boat."
"good."
Ye Yaodong put a hand on his father's shoulder and asked his father to get on the Ocean 1 while he went to the fresh food collection ship.
Just as he was raising his feet, the prayer bead on the hand he was putting on his father's shoulder suddenly broke...
They fell all over the floor, and some even rolled into the water.
He was completely stunned.
I'll update more in the evening. I have something to go out now, so I'll post these first.
Chapter completed!
