By the time the father and son docked with a ship full of cargo, the dock was already empty.
However, there was another person with a flashlight.
"Oh, you two are finally back. You almost worried us to death. You didn't come back so late. We were all scared to death."
"Damn, all the shopping centers are closed? Grandma's..."
"Don't you even look at what time it is? Who is waiting here so late? You don't know what you are doing. You come back so late and don't know if you will come back early. The whole family is worried about it..."
Father Ye said impatiently: "What are you nagging about? Who doesn't want to come back early if you can come back early? How can I come back if I haven't finished the work and haven't finished the Internet?"
"Why is it collected so late? I can't collect it all until tomorrow."
"What do you know? Go and call Ah Cai over to receive the goods. We are waiting here."
"Okay, okay, I'll go right away." Ye's mother didn't bother to ask more questions. As soon as Ye's father urged her, she ran away with a flashlight.
There is no need to sort out the cargo on the ship. They have already sorted and put the fish in categories when they collected them. Now all they have to do is come and weigh them and take them away.
Seeing that he was still waiting here, Ye Yaodong said to his father: "Why don't you just watch here? I'll go home and take a look first, and then I'll ride my bike out later."
"Well, then you should go back first to report that you are safe."
"I'll come out as soon as I get back." He took the small fish and shrimps he wanted to keep with him.
Looking at the small fishing village from the shore, it is completely dark inside the village, there is no light anywhere, only one house on the beach is still brightly lit.
He walked directly towards the light, but before he entered the yard, all the dogs in the family rushed out, jumping up and down at his feet and rubbing against his legs, causing him to get tripped up.
The old lady had already seen it when she was standing at the door. She walked a few steps quickly and said, "It's good to be back. It's good to be back. I'll heat up the food for you."
Then he hurriedly entered the house to burn firewood.
Ye Yaodong moved his feet to shake off all the dogs that were on his lap, and then he lifted the bucket into the house, "Stop working, just have a few bites later, there's no time to eat now."
, I came back for a drink of water, but I have to go to the dock again soon, and the goods haven’t been sold yet.”
Lin Xiuqing heard the movement in the house and came out quickly, followed closely by two boys.
"Why don't you two go to bed? You still stay in my room."
"Hehe~ Dad, you are back. Mom is worried about you. Why are you not back so late?"
Lin Xiuqing explained: "I was supervising my eldest son's homework. I came back and played like crazy all night. I didn't write even a word of homework. It was completely dark, and I was still playing around in the room with Yang Yang."
"Well, let the two of you go to bed early, and you go to bed early too. I have to go to the dock to sell goods. Put the rice in the pot for me. I'll come back later. Just do it by yourself. You all go to bed. It's already past nine o'clock.
.”
"It's okay. People are old and sleep less. Let them go to bed first. I will just heat the food and boil a pot of hot water for you to take a bath."
Ye Yaodong responded casually and didn't care to say anything else to them. He had to go to the dock to help.
He easily pushed the bicycle out of the house. He could ride it, but he would never walk. At worst, when he came back with the cart, he would put the bicycle on top of the cart and push it together.
As for whether the paint would be rubbed off, that was beyond his consideration.
After he went out, the old lady kept looking at his back and muttered, "It's so hard. Dongzi works so hard like this. He goes out early and comes back late every day. It's completely dark today and everyone else is sleeping. He's still working hard at night."
We need to go out to the dock."
"Fortunately, I went out at six o'clock this morning, not two or three o'clock." Lin Xiuqing also felt that he had worked hard.
"I've been working all day. Let's buy a pig's foot and stew it tomorrow to replenish him. I killed a pullet some time ago, so don't kill the chicken. Let's raise it first. Otherwise, we can wait a little longer.
You can kill another duck tomorrow, dry some dried radish, and put it down for frying."
Lin Xiuqing said with a smile: "Let's keep some more, they are still laying eggs. Let's wait until the beginning of winter to buy the pig's feet. The beginning of winter is just the right time to take supplements. There are still three days left."
"Ah, yes, yes, I'm so confused. I forgot about the beginning of winter soon..."
Ye Yaodong wore a headlamp and rode his bicycle on the bumpy road. His butt was bounced up and down by the bumps.
I immediately regretted it. Walking might be faster than riding a bicycle. If I had known better, I wouldn't have been lazy.
Looking from a distance, the lights of the small building outside the pier have been turned on. When Ye Yaodong arrived, Ye's father and Ye's mother were carrying baskets of fish off the boat.
After he put the pedal on the bicycle, he quickly went over and called Ah Cai to help him lift it.
When I came out from the front, I originally thought about asking his eldest and second brothers to come over to help, but seeing that the lights in their rooms were all out, it was quite late.
They all went to trawl the net at two or three o'clock at night. They must have gone to bed by this time. Ye Yaodong only hesitated for a moment and rode over without calling them.
They have been tired all day and have to go tonight, so let them rest.
Ah Cai greeted him and had to go up to help, "Isn't it too late for you to come back? I was already asleep and you were dug out. I thought you were following other people's example and planning to float on the sea for two or three days.
Come back again.”
Ye Yaodong's heart moved, "Who can float on the sea for two or three days? Is it just a boat like ours?"
"Well, there are two boats in Dongqiao Village next door that go there for two or three days and then come back. They bought a lot of ice cubes and put them on the boats. They plan to take advantage of the low temperature during this period to go out and stay longer.
If you come back in a day or two, you can get a lot more."
"Oh, that would be too tiring and not good for rest."
"It's good if you can make money. How many times can you go to sea in the winter? You have to cherish it."
"You'd better help me lift these off the boat first. They weigh more than 1,000 kilograms. By the way, what's the price of toad fish now?"
"3 cents and 5 cents per catty!"
"Grass!"
He worked hard and made more than 1,200 kilograms, but he could only sell it for more than 40 yuan?
Ah Cai also laughed and said, "You know, when winter comes, there will be an overflow of fish. Now many of them have been harvested and made into dried fish."
"How many times can this guy do this?"
"This fish is extremely cheap to begin with. Don't you have several baskets of other fish? That sole fish costs you eight cents. Turbot has also been reduced in price recently, only twenty cents. Manta fish costs twenty-eight cents. Golden pomfret costs you eight cents."
Thirty-three cents, white pomfret forty-five cents, and others. I’ll see what else is there later. Just these, you’ve seen a lot. Not counting the toad fish, these are worth hundreds of dollars.
Already."
Ye Yaodong listened to him telling him the price and calculated it silently in his mind. Although the toad fish was not valuable, it should be sold for almost 150 with these goods, and the three otters were not taken out yet.
After thinking about it this way, I felt a little satisfied and didn't dislike it anymore.
"I worked from dawn to midnight to earn this. That toad fish..."
"Talent?" Ah Cai said angrily: "You can earn more than 100 yuan this day, and you still earn this? If other people hear this, they will hate you to death. I am tired after a day's work.
I work so hard to get a small change from you."
"Don't interrupt me. If I dry the toad fish myself, will it be easy to sell?"
"It's easy to sell. There are more people doing business outside now. They can sell anything. Those businessmen are also doing their best there. There are many people who collect the dry goods on the seaside and sell them to other places. The previous ones
It’s such a hard year. People in the city have money but nowhere to spend it, and everything is easy to sell.”
Ye Yaodong also thought about it in his mind. He didn't know much about the current market situation. He only knew that the environment in the current era was getting better and better. If dried fish was easy to sell, he might as well hire someone to dry it and sell it himself to save money.
The fresh ones are sold at a low price, and I don’t know how many hands have passed through them.
The shop in the market will be ready by the end of the year, so he can just dry them and sell them in large quantities in the shop!
This market has just been completed, and all the shops around it will definitely not open at once. It will take a long time before it becomes bustling and bustling. If he rents it out, it will definitely not be successful in the first few years.
If you can make use of this, it will definitely be better than leaving it idle. After all, with so much traffic coming and going around, there will always be someone who takes a fancy to it.
Moreover, once those things are dried, they can be stored there for a long time without fear of accumulation.
Ye Yaodong had a thousand thoughts in his mind just for a moment. After he had the idea, he also began to ask, "How much can this dried toad fish be sold for if it is dried?"
"What's wrong? Are you really going to hire someone to sell it? This is very laborious, but it won't be as easy as being acquired directly."
"I sold it for three cents for a handful of cents. I worked exhaustingly all day long, and in the end, it cost more than 40 yuan for more than 1,200 kilograms."
"It's just because of the large quantity that it's not valuable. Don't you have other fish products? Other fish products are more valuable. It's quite a lot. It's the first one in the village. It's much more than others."
"Just tell me how much I can sell it for when it's dried?"
Ah Cai chuckled twice and looked at him calmly.
I feel like this guy's business is getting bigger and bigger, he's getting more promising, he has ideas, and his brain is moving faster than others.
"There are different types of dried fish. For example, this kind of toad fish costs only 3 cents fresh. Dried fish is not much more expensive, only 4 cents. If the wholesale quantity is large at once, it will be more expensive.
Lower the price a little more and you can see for yourself. If you plan to keep it, I won't weigh it. You can just take it back later."
Father Ye and Mother Ye were carrying them back and forth. At first, they were just chatting and chatting normally. Now they passed by each other, but when they heard his words, they quickly stopped and asked: "Why do you want to stay? Don't weigh me."
?”
"Yes, there are so many of them. What are you doing here? Where to put them? Why don't you sell them? I've been up from morning to midnight. It's been so hard. It's important to see the money quickly..."
