Back to the small fishing village in 1982

Chapter 1057: Solo (1 words, monthly ticket +30)

Ye Yaodong was immersed in his own calculations and didn't care about other people's conversations. He just responded perfunctorily a few times when people spoke to him.

After dinner, he didn't need to call them, as his brother and sister-in-law from next door came over excitedly to settle the bill.

The eldest brother received his ship a week earlier, so his account was settled up to the 23rd of last week, and the second brother's account was settled up to today. There is a date on each cargo manifest, so there is no way they can be confused.

Lin Xiuqing still had a few squid manifests in her hands, which she had sorted out after the weather cleared up a few days later.

Everyone took out their bills and counted them together. It wasn't the first time they had done the accounting.

The cargo lists were all here, and the accounts were clear and concise. However, when Lin Xiuqing wanted to deduct the two days' extra wages that they had received, the two sisters-in-law frowned and looked somewhat unhappy, but they said nothing.

However, she didn't care at all. She just glanced at them and continued talking to herself, then deducted the necessary points.

At that time they said they would be gone for another three days, until the middle of the month. But after they settled the bill, it rained the next day, so they came back at noon. It rained heavily for the next two days and they didn’t go, so time must be deducted.

Three dollars per person, 6 dollars for six people, and 18 dollars for two days. It definitely cannot be given for free.

If they put it into the public purse, they can get an extra 12 yuan.

Even brothers should settle accounts clearly, let alone accounts of partnership, which of course have to be settled clearly.

However, this was just the last trip to settle the accounts. Although the two sisters-in-law were not very happy, this was the fact and they had no reason to refute it.

After the bill was settled, the two sisters-in-law also checked it again. Only after they were sure there was no problem did they go home to get the money.

Lin Xiuqing also looked at Ye Yaodong, "Big cousin, are we going to settle the account with Brother Asheng tonight or tomorrow?"

"Let's do it tonight. This month's accounts are quite large, so let's do it one day in advance. Tomorrow, on the 31st, we'll do the Harvest's account, as well as the accounts for the two ships we rented out in the middle of the month."

"That's fine. The two ships have half a month to go. Excluding rainy days, foggy days and big waves, there are still a few days to settle the accounts. Then we can start from tomorrow or the 1st and settle the accounts at the end of the month."

Ye's father was also listening and interrupted, "Your second brother's boat was taken back today, and he will rent it together with my boat tomorrow. Your second brother just cleaned up that boat last year, so you can put it aside and clean it up at the end of the year, and then we can settle the accounts together at the end of the month."

"Well, who should I rent it to?"

"Your mother said that both boats were rented to several cousins ​​of your uncle's family. They are all strong laborers. If there are more boats next time, we will see and give them to others."

"Okay, just discuss it."

It doesn't matter to him who the house is rented to, as he has his younger brothers to keep an eye on it. It doesn't matter how his parents want to recruit relatives and arrange for him.

"Also, they all want to go jellyfish fishing with you this year. I guess a lot of relatives will go with you..."

"Let them follow if they want to. I didn't hire the boatmen anyway, so I'm not responsible for their safety. I can't guarantee how much they can earn. It's up to them. Also, our Dongsheng won't be able to stay for a few days. At most, we can wait until we finish fishing in the trench. Why do we have to go to distant seas to trawl and waste time fishing for one or two jellyfish there? It's definitely not as cost-effective as a small boat."

Father Ye nodded, "I understand. Chen Jianian will definitely bring a large group of people with him. They could have made more than a month, but last year they made less than a month. This year, they can make at most half a month. Whether those who follow them can make a lot of money depends on luck."

Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua were also listening on the side and looked at each other in bewilderment.

"So Dongzi, will you not be able to make any money by catching jellyfish this year?" Ye Yaopeng asked with a frown.

"Not necessarily. We can definitely make money, which is better than trawling at home, but we can't make tens of thousands like we did last year. After all, word spreads quickly, and everyone knows that we made a lot of money last year. Not to mention that there will be more boats going there this year, we should be able to double the money at Chen Jianian's place."

"Then we can only wait and see, and try our luck?"

Ye Yaodong nodded.

Next year will definitely be more difficult, but we still have to look at the situation this year first.

I may be able to eat some meat scraps this year, but next year I probably won’t even be able to drink enough soup.

"Anyway, we'll see when the time comes. Everything will work out when the time comes. I hope I don't lose money."

The two brothers were a little worried. Although it was still early, they started to think about it in advance. The room was silent and no one spoke. Everyone was thinking about how much money they could earn this year.

The silence was broken by the arrival of Mrs. Ye Dasao and Mrs. Ye Ersao with money.

Lin Xiuqing took the money and counted it. After confirming that there was no problem, they went back home.

However, the topic of discussion should have changed to jellyfish fishing.

Ye's father knew Ye Yaodong's plan, but he didn't say anything to the two brothers. After everyone left, he left too.

It's not that he didn't want to tell the eldest and second brothers about Dongzi's plan, but these two were not as rich as Dongzi. Besides, the two brothers would definitely hesitate, which would only add to their troubles. Besides, it was Dongzi's idea in the first place.

Dongzi has already ordered ten boats. If they want to make them, they have to go elsewhere to ask for help from craftsmen who specialize in making wooden boats. No one knows how much they can earn. Not everything Dongzi envisions can be accomplished, so there is no need to follow Dongzi's example in everything.

No matter how much they earn from the current boat, they will still make money. In addition, they made much more last year and the year before last. Who knows how many more boats will be there this year? How long can they fish?
Neither of them is capable of causing trouble, so it's better to avoid it.

If Dongzi knew how to listen to him, he would definitely tell him to stop making trouble and just fish properly and steadily since he could make money anyway.

After everyone left, Lin Xiuqing also talked to him about this.

“The first person to try something new will make money, and those who follow will also be able to make a profit. But once a large number of people start to follow suit, they will probably be left with nothing.”

"So you don't have to worry or overthink. I can still make some money this year, and I'm sure I can make more than anyone else. We can wait and see what happens next year."

Lin Xiuqing heard him speak with full confidence, so she didn't ask any more questions. "Well, then you should check on the progress of your wooden boats when you have free time."

"Tomorrow, when I come back from the city after settling accounts, I'll go to the next village to check on the progress. I'll just finish checking and come back to settle accounts in the evening."

"Then go call your eldest cousin, Brother Asheng and the others to come and settle the accounts."

"Okay, take out all the orders and sort them out first, I'll go call them."

He called all the people who had rented the four boats. When they heard that the bill would be settled one day in advance, they were all very happy because it meant they could get paid.

For my cousin and brother Asheng, what they earn this month is equivalent to what they earn in four or five months. This month is the month they make the most money in the whole year.

For the other two people, it is a good thing to get paid immediately after working for half a month.

Lin Xiuqing sorted their respective lists in advance, with names and dates written on them, so there was no way they could be mixed up. Every time my younger brother gave her the shopping list, she would use clips to clip them separately, and each copy was very neat.

The cargo orders of my cousin and Asheng were from the 3rd to the 18th, excluding the three days when it rained. For the other days, there were two copies of the cargo orders, one was for the squids they received, and the other was for the trawl fish that Acai received.

When all these amounts are added up, it's quite a lot for that month, but the proceeds from their selling of squids are all public property, so they have to be added to the total and divided equally among their family.

So, while Ye Yaodong was having dinner, he did some calculations in his mind and thought that the cost of buying the squids from them was free, so the store made pure profit.

However, he still had to spend a small part of the money, because he had to take half of the payment for the squid, and he also had to take half of the trawled goods. The value of the goods trawled this month was not much, and it was definitely not enough to pay the other half of the payment for the squid.

After Lin Xiuqing and others arrived, they were shown the invoices according to the procedure. After confirming that there were no problems, they started to add and subtract numbers on the calculator. The total price on each invoice was clearly written, so it was very easy to add and subtract.

After calculating the total bill, they divided it in half to each of them, and the expenses went to them, and she took half directly.

"My eldest cousin made 1936.28 from selling squid and trawling this month, while my second cousin made 2002.52. My second cousin made only 263.3 because he had an old boat that he was lucky enough to use and it was delayed for a few days due to maintenance. You can take a look for yourself."

"Is the amount from my eldest cousin and brother Asheng so small? I thought it was over 2,000. Didn't they settle the bill three days in advance at the end of last month? Aren't the remaining three days included in this month? Those three days were also the flood season."

"The weather was good before the 12th, which was about half a month before and after. After that, it was either intermittent rain or strong winds and waves. Fewer people went there in the second half of the month. Just now, my eldest and second brothers got together, and we only got a little over 100, didn't we? This also includes the extra money we made during the three-day flood season at the end of last month."

Because when the accounts for the first half of the month were settled, the fuel and labor expenses were not taken into account, so when the eldest and second brothers settled the accounts, they included the fuel and labor costs for that month together, so they got even less.

If 18 yuan per person's wages had not been deducted from their wages and given to the public, they would not have been able to get an extra 12 yuan, and the total amount they could have received would have been barely 100 yuan.

"Oh, that's right. This year is a good year for the harvest. It didn't rain during the flood season, and it only rained at the end. It doesn't matter then. Let it rain if it wants. Anyway, we've made the most money."

After hearing the numbers, the men were actually very happy. They had memorized how many days they had been away and how much money they had earned each trip. They also kept a record when they returned, so they already had an idea in their minds.

So they didn't have any objections and didn't say much. They were all cheerful, with smiles on their faces, and looked very happy.

"Whatever Ah Qing figures out, that's it. The number you press on the calculator can't be wrong."

"Yes, it's a lot, not a small amount."

"I was only gone for two days, and I didn't expect the bill to be settled so soon. It's good enough to get the money."

Ye Yaodong said: "We all settle accounts at the end of the month. As for whether it is the last day of the month or the last day, it depends on the situation. If I happen to be out at sea at the end of the month and not at home, then it is normal to postpone it for a day or two. This month also has a special day of 31, so it is just right to settle the account today on the 30th."

"Okay, we have no objection anyway, we can settle the accounts anytime."

"Yes, you can come whenever it's convenient for you. We are all at home anyway, so we can settle accounts anytime. Dongzi has a big family and a lot of ships now, so it's normal for him to be busy."

Everyone was very sensible and had no objections, and no one wanted to check the calculation again.

Lin Xiuqing thought it was easy and convenient, so she simply calculated the amount of money each person was going to get, and then wrote it down on a list for them to see.

"Then if you have no objection, we'll split it in half. I'll go get the money for you."

Everyone was even happier after getting the money. No matter how much they got, it was all income. Those who got less also knew that it was only for a few days, so they all felt pretty good.

The distribution is small now, but it will naturally increase next month. Anyway, it is better than doing odd jobs or farming at home.

Ye Yaodong and his wife also did the math after the others left. They had just received half of the money, so they had more than 2100 yuan. With the addition of the more than 100 yuan from their two brothers, they had more than 2200 yuan in total.

"It's pretty good. This month I got a lot of money because of the flood season. Plus the 800 yuan I got in advance from my eldest and second brothers in the first half of the month, so this month I got 3000 yuan. Last month, these boats got more than 800 yuan, which is more than three times more."

"Yes, this month we get a bit more. Now that we have two more ships next month, we should be able to get more than 1000, which is just enough to pay salaries."

"Oh, and everyone's wages must be paid tomorrow."

"I know. I remember that."

"So the money earned from these five ships each month is enough to pay the workers?"

Lin Xiuqing rolled her eyes at him. "When you're counting money, you try your best to count all the money you haven't earned yet. But when you really need to pay, you don't think about how much money you've earned elsewhere. You only think about how much salary you have to pay."

"This 1000+ wage includes the wages of the four boatmen and my father, the five younger brothers and my mother in the workshop, and my father and mother in the city, as well as the miscellaneous workers. After deducting these wages, the money collected from the shops in the city and the money brought in by the Dongsheng can all be considered a net profit."

"I just save trouble and use the money earned from these boats to offset expenses. This way I can simply calculate how much money I have earned, which is more convenient."

"But the money earned from these boats every month is real. Together, we can earn a thousand yuan a month, which is stable. We don't need to run any additional business. After a few months of rent, the capital will be returned naturally."

Ye Yaodong laughed, "I thought the same as you, I was just asking, look how anxious you are. Everyone knows that the profits from these ships are all net profits, and the expenses were originally incurred elsewhere."

Lin Xiuqing listened to his sophistry but did not expose him. She just rolled her eyes at him and sorted out the invoices on the table. She would put them away again when she took them back to the house.

Keep it as a backup first, no matter whether it can be used or not, just keep it as a backup.

"My eldest cousin and Asheng got more than 900 yuan each and 1000 yuan each. After deducting the gas and labor expenses, the two of them can earn about yuan this month. It's a huge profit."

"I only rely on this month in a year. How can I earn so much in other months? In winter or during the rainy season, I may only go four or five days a month."

"It's OK. At least I can support my family. Then I can go fishing for jellyfish in July and make some money."

"Is there any timeline for when we'll deliver the next boat?"

"No, maybe we have to wait until next month. Anyway, the next products to be produced are ours, so we just have to wait for them to be delivered one by one."

"Then don't buy any more boats. We already have enough. When they save up for two years, they will definitely buy their own boats instead of renting them. After calculating so many returns, they will know that they can earn more if they have their own boats."

Ye Yaodong certainly understood this, he just seized the opportunity.

It happened that in the past few years, everything was in ruins and everyone was poor. They couldn't even get enough food to eat. Those who could own a small wooden boat were considered to have very good living conditions.

Who can easily save up enough money to buy ships one after another like him?

He just stood at the forefront of the trend, grabbed several boats in his arms, and let others help him make money.

Once they have accumulated a little wealth, it would definitely be more cost-effective for them to charter a boat and work on their own, just like his eldest and second brothers did.

It's just that everyone is still relatively poor now and few people can afford it. In addition, the shipyard's orders have been fully occupied by him in the past two years. Even if someone wants to form a partnership, they can't place an order.

However, after they have accumulated wealth for two years and started out on their own, he is not afraid that no one will rent the boat. The rich will only be a small minority, and the poor will be more than the rich, so many people are willing to rush to rent his boat.

"I know that they placed so many orders at once just to occupy the production capacity during this period. By the next year or the year after, they will probably have enough money to fly on their own. We have so many units for rent, which is almost enough."

His production chain is not on these small motor boats. After getting the fresh-catch boat next year, the next step will be to wait two or three years to replace it with a steel fishing boat. Then he can go deep-sea fishing again. He can do everything one step ahead of others.

And the wealth he has now cannot be revealed. Knowing that he is rich is one thing, but who could have imagined that he could earn more than 10 in just a few years?
It is not the time for him to enjoy himself now. It is only the 1980s and he still needs to continue accumulating wealth.

One hundred thousand is an unimaginable amount of money for ordinary people, but for truly wealthy people, it is not a lot, especially for overseas Chinese who have returned to invest in recent years, it is even a drop in the bucket.

The money he has is not enough.

Moreover, now is not the time to buy a house or land. It will not be too late to buy them in the 90s. At least the money is in your hands now, and it will be there after you buy the house and land.

Lin Xiuqing felt relieved when she saw that he had no objection and no longer worried about buying a boat.

"We really have too many boats. If you count the boats that haven't been delivered yet, we have 11 trawlers. We also have the Dongsheng, the Fengshou, and the three brothers."

"Oh! There are 10 more small wooden boats!"

Oh my God, she felt helpless just thinking about it. The number of boats in the whole village combined was not as many as hers.

"You always complain about the title of Salted Fish Dong, now I can almost change it to Ship King Dong."

Ye Yaodong's mouth opened with laughter when he heard her say, "You should go out and help me promote it tomorrow, so that people won't have to keep calling me salty fish and salty fish. How unpleasant it is."

"I don't care about you. You didn't call me anyway." Lin Xiuqing rolled her eyes at him unhappily, then packed up the documents and went back to the house.

"No, I can't spread this message outside, can I? That would be so embarrassing, I'm shy..."

Ye Yaodong was still sitting there stretching his neck and shouting, but who would pay attention to him?
Didn't even look at him.

He had no choice but to sit there and finish the tea in the bowl, then go out to see the child.

The next morning, he went to the city to settle accounts and brought back a scale. Then he went to the boat maker to see the progress of the boat.

Actually, I wanted to buy it at the beginning of the year after I got the Dongsheng, but I never had so much free time, and I didn’t happen to go to the city. Most of the time, I would go to the city to do the accounting and then bring it back.

Last month, I went to the city to settle accounts. It was already evening when I arrived, and I hurried back early the next morning.

We had a large wooden scale at home, which was convenient for weighing dried fish. The hook in front was more than enough to catch a few bags of dried fish.

However, after the New Year, the Dongsheng and Fengshou ships brought back more goods, and there were more places that needed scales. The wooden beam scale was no longer suitable for weighing fresh fish.

In the past two months, he also weighed them at Acai's place. Fortunately, they only weighed them twice a month. Only this month, in the first half of the month, he collected squids every day. He felt embarrassed because he borrowed them so many times, and he kept it in mind.

So this time when I went to the city to collect the money, I also brought one back with me.

When I got home, the sun had set and a busy day had passed.

When he was not at home, his father rented out his boat and the old boat again, which meant that he had rented out 5 boats. Now his father's boat had to be operated by his younger brothers.

After coming back, he had barely sat down to drink a sip of tea before his second brother called him to go to the Pei family to settle accounts. He was so busy that he had no time to rest.

The bill was settled only when it was time for dinner.

Aunt Ma was quite enthusiastic and wanted to invite them to dinner with a smile, but he refused. He had been away from home all day and had other things to do at home, so he had to take the money back first. His second brother also refused like him.

Only his father and Uncle Zheng were thick-skinned enough to stay and drink.

While having dinner, his mother kept nagging him.

Ye Yaodong only took a breath while eating, and then after the meal he sat there with his legs crossed, not wanting to move at all, just watching Ah Qing busying around in and out.

"What are you doing?"

"Pay your brothers' wages."

"Oh."

Seeing her rushing out again, he had no choice but to sit at home and wait with his feet up.

When she entered the house again, he asked her to find two boys of similar age from the village to help look after the workshop.

"I feel like five people are not enough. Let's call for one more person, so we can have two people in a group, three shifts, and we don't have to work with two people at night and one person during the day."

The water and firewood their family uses now are all picked up and delivered by these boys during their free time during the day.

It is indeed necessary to work in three shifts, two in a group, so that if someone needs something urgent, there will be someone available.

Lin Xiuqing thought about it and agreed immediately.

Originally, the five were from nearby villages. It would be better to invite someone from the same village so that they could supervise each other.

"Have you paid the boatmen?"

“They have just been delivered.”

"Your salary has increased by 5 yuan, right?"

"Yes, I remember it. Don't worry, I increased it at the end of last month. I also calculated it as an integer for my parents. I gave them both 100 yuan, the same as my parents."

"That's good. Have you counted all the money I brought back?"

"Not yet. It's already dinner time when you come back. I don't have the time. I have to prepare food and drink for the whole family, clean up after work, pay everyone, and deliver the money to the boatmen. I can only hide the money you gave me for now, and I will count it slowly in the evening after I finish my work."

"Are you done now?"

"Do you think I'm done?"

Ye Yaodong touched his nose and said, "Are you done with your work? It's getting dark."

Lin Xiuqing rolled her eyes at him and said, "I haven't even given the two girls a bath yet. Go and give them a bath. I'll be done now and can go count the money."

"Okay, I'll give them a bath then."

Ye Yaodong was eager to try it out, as he had never even given his child a bath.

"Then go and catch them first. They are all running around with the older kids at the door."

He walked out immediately.

By the time he had the two maids trapped under his armpits, one on the left and one on the right, Lin Xiuqing had already prepared two large basins of hot water and placed them in the room for him.

"Come, Daddy will give you a bath today. He will make you clean and fragrant..."

"Yeah……"

The two girls happily kicked off their shoes as soon as their feet landed on the ground. Then they each took a basin and stepped directly into it to play, splashing water all over the floor.

"Wait a minute, your clothes and pants haven't been taken off yet, why are you in such a hurry..."

Ye Yaodong hurriedly took off the clothes of the two people.

Lin Xiuqing was sitting at the table counting money. She just turned her head and glanced at him and then ignored him, but the laughter in her ears never stopped.

"Wash your face first, then wipe your neck and armpits..."

"It's so itchy, so itchy..."

“Watch…watch…”

"Sister, sister..."

"Sister, sister..."

Amid the noise of playfulness, Lin Xiuqing turned around and urged him to pick up the child quickly.

"Stop splashing water, both of you. The basin is almost empty..."

"My hair is wet, did you hear me..."

"Okay, okay, there's no more water, get up..."

"No, no, I want to play more..."

"I still want to play..."

Ye Yaodong was half wet from the splashes they threw on him. He squatted there with a helpless look on his face. He was also exhausted, so he simply sat down on the ground.

Suddenly, Ye Xiaoxi shouted, "I need to pee..."

He tried to stand up, but it was too late. She had peed in the tub.

"Ah Qing..."

Lin Xiuqing was also helpless, "Who told you to wash them for so long? You should have just taken them out and wrapped them in the quilt."

"I just wanted to sit down and take a breath. Giving these two a bath is so tiring. They kept moving around, twisting and turning, and they didn't cooperate. They also splashed me all over."

"Get your washbasin and another basin of warm water, then use the cup to splash it over her body."

"Ok."

Just as he was about to go out and before he had connected the water, he heard Ye Xiaoxi shouting from inside the house again, "She's pooping, my sister's pooping..."

He lost hold of the ladle and it fell into the water tank. Fortunately, the basin was still on the stove. He quickly ran into the house to take a look.

There was originally only a thin layer of water at the bottom of Pei Yu's washbasin, but now egg drops were floating on top. However, she was still looking around with an innocent look on her face, feeling a little at a loss.

Lin Xiuqing also looked at the two children still sitting in the washbasin with a helpless look on her face.

The couple looked at each other in silence.

"One pee, one poop!"

"Then what should we do..."

He has no experience.

"Where's your hot water?"

"Oh, I'll get it right away."

Lin Xiuqing had no choice but to take over the two hot potatoes and asked the two children to stand up first. After Ye Yaodong brought in the hot water, she picked up the cup to scoop hot water. However, she felt that the cup looked familiar.

"Son's tooth cup?"

"Yeah, you can't use mine."

She glanced at him, shook her head speechlessly, took Ye Chenghu's toothbrush and scooped a cup of water to pour on Ye Xiaoxi. After making sure that she was rinsed clean, she asked Ye Yaodong to pick her up and put her on the bed to dry her.

Then he washed the egg drops off Pei Yu's body, muttering to himself.

"Then why did you just pick them up after washing them casually? You let them play with you for so long. They will easily catch a cold in this weather."

"Who knew they would pee and poop at the same time, and make it so disgusting."

"All children are like this. Even at such a young age, they can't hold their poop or pee. That's why I told you to wash it quickly."

"Next time, you should come and I will count the money."

"Just now I saw you were very excited and positive."

"No, once is enough."

Really, once is enough, I don’t want to wash them a second time.

"Put your daughter in clothes, why are you still asking her to wrap herself in a blanket? What are you doing in a daze?"

"I'll have to talk to Guang later and ask him to compensate me for my mental damages."

"Have a good conscience, you uncle."

"An uncle can't do everything for his children. That's his job. I'm both his father and his uncle. If I do an extra job, I have to ask him to compensate me."

Lin Xiuqing was too lazy to pay attention to him. After cleaning Pei Yu, she put him on the bed and handed him to him. Then she took the two basins of water out and poured them out and cleaned the washbasin.

Ye Yaodong was still muttering to the two girls, "Your father and uncle work very hard. They have to earn money to support the family, and they have to bathe you and take care of your poop and pee. I raised you with my own hands, so remember to be filial to me when you grow up..."

"Be a better boy next time. Don't be so naughty. You make so much noise even when taking a bath. Tell me when you pee or poop. You are so old now. If your two brothers find out, they will laugh at you..."

"It's just that the camera is hard to take pictures at night. When the weather gets warmer, I'll let you take a bath in the yard in broad daylight and take a few pictures. I'll show them to you when you grow up..."

"See if you dare to pee and poop in the basin again..."

When Lin Xiuqing came back and heard him mumbling non-stop, she patted him.

"Why are you talking to them like an old man, nagging them non-stop? They are only a little older than you. It's strange that they know what you are talking about."

"You don't understand. This is just the kindness of an old father who cares about his daughter..."

She glanced at him with disdain and continued to settle accounts, regardless of his distraction. He liked to mutter in front of the child from time to time, even though the child was only a little kid.

He didn't say a word to his two sons, but talked so much to his daughter.

"Adong...Adong..."

Lin Xiuqing quickly turned around and called him, "Someone is calling you outside."

"Ah?" Ye Yaodong paused, pricked up his ears, and found that someone was really calling him.

"You two should play on the bed and don't go downstairs. It's all clean. The floor is dirty, you know?"

The two girls didn't care about him. They were already rolling around on the bed, laughing and playing with the quilt.

Ye Yaodong hurried out to see who was calling him.

"Oh, what a rare visitor! Boss Lin is back after making a fortune again?"

"Tell your dog to make way. It stopped barking when it saw me, but it still wouldn't let me in and blocked the door."

He pushed the dogs aside and invited the people in.

"Looking at your group of dogs, they seem pretty good. I also brought back two wolf puppies."

Ye Yaodong's eyes lit up, "Wolfhound! Wolfhounds are great, can you give me one?"

"You already have a nest of this here, do you want more?"

"Yes, I don't mind having too many. This is a wolfdog, not an ordinary local dog. Give me one."

"It's too late. My two sons have already allocated one to each of them."

"Where did you get it? Do you still have it?"

"No, they are all divided."

"Okay, give me the one that's suitable for breeding or I can bring my dog ​​to your place for breeding."

“Then wait until next year.”

"It doesn't matter, next year is next year..."

Before he could finish his words, he saw Lin Jishang throwing the cloth bag in his hand to him.

"That telescope you've been asking for. It's very expensive and hard to get."

Ye Yaodong happily opened it and knew that the bag in his hand should contain the telescope. It has been almost two months, and he should be able to get it at least.

"You've been away for quite a long time this time. It's been a month already?"

"This trip is not in the surrounding area, so I ran a little far. The goods have been delivered, and we have settled the matter. I am leaving now."

"Hey, wait..." He quickly pulled the person back, "Do I need you to help me with one more thing?"

"What do you want?"

"I want another set of diving equipment, just like the one you got me two years ago."

"Isn't it enough that you already have one set?"

"I want another set, otherwise I would be so nervous if I go into the water alone. If two people go into the water together, we can have someone to look after each other."

"Okay, you are really rich now."

"It's just so-so, but I can never compare to you."

"Don't be ridiculous. The truth is, I can't compare to you. Let's go..."

Ye Yaodong hurriedly pulled her back again, "Why are you in such a hurry? You haven't even said a few words yet. Are you in a hurry to go home and give birth to your baby?"

"Oh, it really is true. You guessed it right."

"Are you so impatient? If I say a few more words, will it delay you from having one less child?"

"What else do you have to say? Can you tell me all at once?"

"I was wondering why you have one at the beginning of the year and one at the end of the year. It turns out that you are all rushed out like this..."

He was so annoyed by the nonsense he talked about at Lin Ji, and he was able to relate everything to something else. What kind of mouth is this?

"Just finish your shit all at once."

Ye Yaodong immediately smiled and said, "I have saved up a lot of goods. Do you want to stock up a little more? Make more money, another 5000, 8000, or 1 kilograms?"

“You can’t sell it, right?”

"No, I'm just concerned about your shipment. I'm afraid you don't have any goods to sell. Bring me more so that my fellow villagers can know that you've made a lot of extra money following me."

"thank you!"

"You're welcome. I'll weigh 20,000 kilograms for you tomorrow. I bought a new scale today. It's very fast. You don't need to use a wooden scale..."

"Are you crazy because of poverty? You still want to force 2 kilograms on me?" Lin Ji looked at him in disbelief as he doubled the price again.

"We are so poor that we can barely make ends meet. It's agreed that we will sell 2 kilograms. Okay, okay, Boss Lin is a straightforward person. Goodbye, thank you, Boss Lin..." Ye Yaodong said while smiling as he pushed people out.

"Nonsense, I'll come back in two days and pull 5000 kilograms."

"Not enough? How can 5000 kilograms be enough for you to sell..."

"5000 kilograms is enough for me to eat until the next life."

After Lin Ji said this, he quickly shook him off and walked away quickly to avoid being held back by him shamelessly again. He hoped that the weight would be increased to 3 kilograms while he was talking.

He also experienced this kind of talking.

"Ah, you're leaving now? In such a hurry..."

"Adong...A Shang is here to buy dried fish from you again?" Mrs. Ye came out curiously, looking around.

Mrs. Ye also heard the noise and ran out to see, "He wants to buy dried fish. Did he make a lot of money? He wants 5000 kilograms at once?"

"I heard that he made a lot of money and hooked up with some rich boss. He said he would ask for more next time."

"No wonder I never see him. You're really lucky. You've become the boss all of a sudden?"

"Didn't I hear a while ago that your friend Awei also got rich? I heard that he wears a suit and leather shoes, and looks very fashionable!"

"Yes, I heard about it too. He also brought that Haozi with him to make a fortune. The people in the village were so envious. Some time ago, everyone was laughing at Haozi, saying that his wife was going to marry an old man to enjoy a good life..."

Sister Ye immediately interrupted her with a smile, "Don't talk nonsense, Uncle Pei has already found a partner, it has nothing to do with him."

"It's all good now. I heard that Old Man Wang and his ex-wife regretted their decision. Everything is gone in a flash, and they missed out on good times."

"I heard that she has been running to Haozi's house these past few days, and was beaten out by her ex-mother-in-law every day, but she still goes there every day. Hahaha, she must be regretting it so much that her intestines are turning green, and she wants to continue to rely on him, right?"

"It's really hilarious. I just got divorced and I haven't hooked up with an old man yet, but my ex-husband is going to make a fortune."

"I just want to repair our relationship before I get rich. After all, I am the mother of two children..."

The two sisters-in-law were talking in unison about the gossip that had happened in the past two days, and they were getting more and more excited as they talked.

Ye Yaodong was also enlightened.

He wanted to know what would happen if Haozi's ex-wife won over the child and moved into his house again, and Haozi did not get rich and came back in poverty?

What if he really got rich and returned home in glory, and found that his wife had moved into his house?

Shit, just thinking about it feels like it’s going to be another big drama.
