Back to the small fishing village in 1982

Lin Xiuqing counted all the great unity, and very quickly, she had almost finished counting when Ye Mu called for dinner.

After she came out, she first handed Ye's father's portion to Ye's mother. She didn't count 180, but gave Ye's father's portion a round number of 200 yuan.

She was originally thinking about sending a red envelope to her father, but A Dong didn't mention it, so she just thought that she would leave it like that for now and ask later. It wouldn't be too late to make up for it tomorrow if necessary.

In fact, when he was resting the day before he came back, Ye Yaodong had already wrapped 200 yuan in red paper to buy something for his father.

"This is my salary..."

As soon as Father Ye stretched out his hand, Mother Ye slapped it away.

"What's yours? You guys can put money in your pockets." Mother Ye didn't count it, she folded it and put it in her pants pocket.

"I have worked hard for two months, and now my pocket is empty, so you just collected it from me..."

"Let's talk about it when we get back. How old are you? Are you sorry?"

"Why are you embarrassed? If my grandkids clamor for candy or popsicles and I can't pay for them, that would be embarrassing."

"Then we'll talk about it when we get back. I'll give it to you when I get back..."

Father Ye glared at her and was too embarrassed to ask for it. What if she gave him two cents? Shame on you.

Ye Yaodong watched his father and mother making a fuss and interrupted them, "Dad, don't be in a hurry to go back after dinner. The eldest and second brothers still have accounts to settle. I guess they are also in a hurry to settle accounts after dinner. You can go and listen together." "

When they send the money back, they don't know whether it is in the hands of the eldest sister-in-law or the second sister-in-law. One of the two sisters-in-law always feels uncomfortable and wants to settle the accounts immediately and hold the money in her arms.

How can you put your own money with others?

Lin Xiuqing also always remembered this.

The money was with the elder sister-in-law, but every time she went back to get the money, the elder sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law would go to her together. After she got it back, they also told her how much she had taken.

He also said something about waiting for the man to come back before settling the accounts and dividing things up.

Her own two boats have made about 4000 yuan in the past two months. Although there are still 2000 to 3 yuan from selling sea urchins and more than [-] yuan in fuel subsidy that Dongzi mentioned, after deducting these, it is not the same as the wages just counted. , the net profit of the two boats fishing for jellyfish was just over [-] yuan.

The eldest brother and the second brother also have two boats. They all go in and out together to fish together, so there is not much difference.

After deducting expenses, if three people share it equally, each person can still have eight or nine thousand, which is a huge sum.

Father Ye had rice in his mouth, nodded, and after swallowing he said: "Yeah, yes, your eldest and second brothers have not settled the accounts yet, and there are also accounts with the in-laws that have not yet been settled. The ones who caught jellyfish this time are still there before going there. The cost of going to sea and docking is not included."

"Those closest to you will be counted first. After the calculation is completed, we will go to Uncle Pei's place together."

"So, Dongzi, how many tens of thousands did you earn this time?" Mother Ye asked with an eager look on her face.

"Don't tell you!"

Mother Ye's face fell instantly, "If you don't tell me, don't tell me. How can I get a rough idea?"

"Then you already know the basics, and why are you still asking?"

"Isn't it okay to ask?"

"Then tell me how much money you have?"

Ye Mu rolled her eyes at him, can this be said?
The two of them were old enough to save some coffin books with great difficulty, so they had to keep them for their retirement.

"Isn't that enough? You don't want your family to make noises everywhere, but I can still use my own money to make noises everywhere? Don't ask next time."

Mother Ye glanced at him up and down, cursing in her heart, and wouldn't ask if she didn't ask.

However, she turned around and said to the children: "Eat first, and play later. It's been a long time, and I haven't even had a bite of food. I've been playing with cars there."

Adults are like this. When they are weak, they like to find a sense of presence in the weak.

When Ye Chenghu heard Ye Mu's words, he immediately took the car off the table and put it in his arms, and quickly started eating.

"I didn't know that I would give it to them after the meal. If I gave it to them so early, they wouldn't have to eat it."

"What does it matter? Food tastes better in a car, right son!"

Ye Chenghu immediately beamed, "Yes, the meal tonight is delicious."

Ye Chengyang also laughed, "Dad, the car you gave us is so beautiful and fun."

"Do you like it?"

"I like it, I like it so much!"

"There's something else!"

The two of them were so excited that they stopped eating and quickly put down their chopsticks, "What else daddy?"

"What else?"

"eat first!"

"Ah, let's talk first..."

"Eat first!" Ye Yaodong did it on purpose, making them feel itchy to death.

The two brothers felt as uncomfortable as a cat scratching their hearts. They were happily eating and playing with cars, but now they felt that the food was no longer delicious.

"If you have to seduce them, why don't you say no after dinner?"

"Aren't you deliberately talking about their names?"

Ye Mu also felt that her food no longer tasted good.

"Oh, why are you talking so much while you're eating? We'll talk about it after we're done. I brought you two silk scarves back. You can try them out after you finish your meal."

Now Ziyemu also had an outlet to vent her anger.

"It's a scarf again. I bought a scarf last year and I'm going to buy a scarf this year. You have nothing to buy, right?"

"Don't you like it?"

"If you like it, buy it every year. You can't put money in your pocket. One or two are the same..."

Father Ye stopped talking.

The old lady smiled and said: "If you are not at home, the meal will not be lively. It will be popular when you come back to eat."

"It's because my husband and I are not at home, so my mother doesn't have to complain, so she seems quiet."

"Eating can't stop your mouth."

"Mom, you can't stop talking."

Mother and son seem to be born at odds with each other, and they habitually argue with each other.

Ye Xiaoxi held the baby and looked at it this way and that way. Someone was feeding it, and all she had to do was mechanically open her mouth to swallow. She looked at the two brothers with envy.

They could only secretly play with cars under the table with one hand, but she could openly play with the doll.

But the two brothers were itching to think of another gift, but since their father didn't tell them, they could only eat the food quickly so that they could go find it by themselves.

The brothers ignored the whispers in their ears and took the time to work hard.

As soon as he finished eating, he immediately put down his chopsticks and went to search on the chair next to him.

"Hey? Do you just throw the bowls and chopsticks on the table after you finish the meal? Where's the habit? You put them on the stove and put them on the stove. Do you think you're eating in a restaurant?"

Ye Yaodong's words made the two of them immediately turn around to collect the dishes and chopsticks, and asked: "Dad, what else did you buy for us? We have finished eating, you can tell us now."

"I bought two overalls..."

"Ah! overalls!" Ye Chengyang couldn't stop exclaiming.

"I like overalls. Dad, you are really a roundworm in my belly!"

Before Ye Yaodong finished speaking, the two of them started jumping excitedly again, their faces full of excitement. Today was a great day, it was their lucky day.

"Where? Where?"

"Why are you excited? I can't run away. I've already bought it. Put your dishes and chopsticks on the stove first. If you drop them in your hands, your mother will beat them later."

The two quickly put the dishes and chopsticks on the table, then rummaged through the pile of things, and finally found the overalls for them.

They happily made signs on their bodies.

Ye Chengyang said happily: "Mom, I want to take a bath now!"

"I want to take a shower too!"

The two of them ran back to the house holding overalls, then ran out with their buttocks naked, took the basin to the back door, and were about to take a shower.

They couldn't wait to put on overalls and go out to bomb the village.

The adults at the dinner table didn't bother to pay attention to them. Everyone came here as children, and they all know the vanity of children. They want to show off any good things they have, and show off.

However, not even a minute after they arrived at the back door, they ran in wet and naked to put on clothes. Ye Yaodong even wondered if they had poured a ladle of cold water over their bodies and treated them like they were washed.

Ye Xiaoxi kept turning his neck around and couldn't see enough.

When the two of them got dressed and ran out with a car in one hand, she couldn't sit still anymore. She was squirming around and trying to slide to the ground, shouting, "I'm full, I'm full..." …”

After breaking free and successfully sliding to the ground, she immediately shouted impatiently, "Wait... gotta (brother)... gotta (brother)..."

Holding a doll that was as tall as herself, she couldn't run at all. She thought it was a bit cumbersome on her hands, but she couldn't bear to let go of such a beautiful doll, so she grabbed the doll's hair and dragged it on the ground...

While running, I called Dede (brother)...

Mother Ye felt distressed when she saw it, "The new doll I just bought is just put on the ground and dragged around, and it gets broken after just a few plays. It's such a waste..."

"It doesn't matter if you pick it up. She can play with it as she pleases. If it's broken, just sew it up." Ye Yaodong looked at it with interest from behind. "I haven't seen you for two months. She seems to have grown a little taller and speaks fluently."

Lin Xiuqing smiled and said, "I am much more naughty. Just like a boy, I follow my two brothers and make a lot of noise all day long."

"It's healthy this way, but it's a lot darker."

"Wouldn't it be dark if we were noisy with the big kids running around and jumping outside all day long on a hot day? It would be useless when the weather gets cold."

They sat there eating and chatting. Except for a little gag at the beginning when the children were there, and after they ran away, only the adults were left. The whole family also started chatting seriously, talking about what happened during fishing. .

The phone bill was too expensive. Although I called back frequently during this period, they mostly reported that I was safe or how much money I had wired back. I rarely talked about what happened during the fishing.

As a result, the meal took quite a long time, but when it came to serious conversation, the atmosphere at the dinner table was quite warm.

Ye Yaodong also told Ah Qing about the gifts he had brought for his family and asked Ah Qing to distribute them later. He didn't have time to stay at home after dinner.

Mother Ye didn't have time to stay at home either. After eating and chatting, she went to deliver wages and moon cakes. She also went for a walk in the village to see how lively it was.

After earning so much money, everyone is probably as happy as the Chinese New Year.

"Didn't you bring a fishing rod on the boat? You knew how to fish to pass the time when you went there. Why didn't you go fishing when you came back? You just brought these things back and didn't see you bring any fish back?" Lin Xiuqing asked curiously.

"How can I still be in the mood to fish when I come back? How can I have the patience? I am so excited that I just want to come back early and don't want to do anything else."

Returning like an arrow, I have no intention of fishing.

"Then I didn't even see you take the fishing rod off the boat."

"Just put it in the cabin. I'm afraid you'll use it to chase ducks when you bring it back."

"Before, my treasure was just the same, but now that I've made a lot of money, it doesn't matter anymore."

"Hehe, you can only use it when you go to sea anyway. It will take up space when you bring it back."

Father Ye had already finished eating. Seeing that he was still nagging, he quickly urged, "Stop talking and finish your meal quickly. I'll go next door first."

"immediately."

He really only had one mouthful left, so he picked up the soup basin and drank a big mouthful of clam soup, then put it back on the table, stood up, and went to the next door with his father.

Good guy, all three of his family members were showing off in various ways at the door next door.

"These are the overalls my dad bought for me. They look good, don't they?"

"This is a car toy that my dad bought for me. It's so fun... You didn't even know it. There's a button underneath, and it can run..."

"I have many small cars like this in my family, many, many...all bought by my father..."

"I still have a lot of mooncakes at home...all bought by my father..."

"My family also has a lot of mooncakes..." A bunch of children gathered in the open space. The children from the nearby neighbors all ran to their door. The three in his family were in the middle. Every family had two or three children, and there were three or four more. , there are so many people there.

The three of them were not the only ones showing off. Some of my friends also went to Zhejiang Province, and they all had gifts. Everyone took out their gifts to tell everyone, and took them out for everyone to see.

Those who did not have gifts were extremely envious of those who had gifts. A group of children were busy and the noise was deafening.

It even affected them settling accounts in the house, so they had to close the doors and windows first.

The lively atmosphere of this group of children reached its climax when Aguang came over with skates. The scene was boiling to the extreme, and the noise was almost loud. A group of children ran, jumped and screamed excitedly.

Today is simply their happiest day.

There are surprises one after another and joy one after another.

"what is this?"

"Skates?"

“Wow, skates are skates!”

"Uncle, I love you!"

"Uncle, I like you the most..."

"Uncle, you are so kind, so good. I like skates the most..."

"Wow wow wow, the skates are so beautiful..."

"Ah...the skates I want most..."

The people settling accounts in the house heard the sound of breaking the sky outside, mixed with the sound of "uncle". They were so startled that they all looked out the window.

A Guang was holding a pile of skate laces in his hand and was handing out skates to them. All the children gathered around him and jumped in the middle.

I had just walked in for a while, but I didn't expect that there were so many more children outside, doubling or triple the number.

"Oh, these kids are really noisy." Sister-in-law Ye said with a smile.

Sister-in-law Ye also looked at the window in surprise, "Aguang also bought them skates? I heard that these pairs cost more than ten yuan."

"He has made so much money as an agency, but doesn't he have to buy some gifts for these children to show his appreciation?"

"This is too expensive. Where can I go after buying it?"

"No matter where they go, they will find it themselves."

After Aguang finished the distribution, the children no longer gathered around him. They all excitedly surrounded the children of the Ye family who had received the skates, screaming and screaming. They were even happier than they themselves had received the gifts.

After receiving gifts one after another today, everyone in the Ye family felt extremely happy. They had never been so luxurious. They suddenly felt like they had a lot. When Ye Yaodong went over to open the door, he heard the children shouting with excitement.

"It would be great if my father and the others went to Zhejiang Province every day to make money."

"Yes, it would be better if dad goes again tomorrow..."

"This way we will receive gifts every day..."

"Then remember to ask your dad to take my dad with him tomorrow, and let my dad go too..."

Ye Yaodong couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth, and wanted to drive his biological father out for the gift.

A Guang was surrounded by those children, and he was sweating profusely before he escaped from the clutches.

"There are so many children in your house. There are three floors inside and three floors outside. They surrounded me and I couldn't even get out."

"They're all from nearby, there are only nine of them in my house."

"At once!"

"This brings prosperity to the population, come in."

"You're settling the accounts in the house, right? Are you finished?" Aguang followed him into the house.

"We're done, we're dividing the money."

"Then it's over. I'll go to my house later to settle the accounts. I'll ask you to come over and settle the accounts."

"Okay, let's wait until we finish counting the money. Has your family finished counting the money?"

"We have finished counting one family, and there is another family that my future brother-in-law's eldest aunt's family hasn't come over to settle yet. My father thought that if they don't come over at night, we will go there tomorrow. You are in the village, so close. Forget it first."

"Shouldn't they take the initiative to come to your house to settle accounts? You are the owner of the house, so you wouldn't be willing to pay half of it, right?"

Aguang pursed his lips in disdain, "Who knew? I regretted it so much. My father was also anxious at that time. He didn't care about the small boat when he saw the big boat. My sister wasn't even married yet, and relatives came to her to ask for her. Partner up and rent our boat.”

"He thought that he couldn't let others down, so he readily agreed. At this moment, my father also slapped his thigh and regretted it. At that time, he didn't think about fishing for jellyfish, so he agreed without much thought."

"It's good now. I have earned a lot of money for others, but they are still reluctant to come over to settle the accounts or take out their money."

Ye Yaodong felt sorry for him, "You have really suffered a big loss. It's only a month away. It's okay if you leave the boat at the dock for a month. Now half of it is for nothing. People are not willing to pay for it and don't take the initiative to come over."

If he had a good attitude, came over to settle accounts as soon as possible after dinner, and gave the money that was due, the father and son would not be so unhappy.

Father Ye helped and said, "Maybe he was delayed because of something. He just came back and there were many relatives coming to talk to him. It's also possible."

"Who knows, I didn't come over tonight anyway. We will go there by ourselves tomorrow, probably because we have already made so much money and there is no need to rent our boat anymore."

"It's possible. Anyway, when you settle the accounts, read the list carefully and don't be fooled. The expenses belong to them."

"I'm an intermediary. I have the order in hand. I know how much it cost. I've already calculated it. I can just go over tomorrow and ask them for the money. If they don't do it, I'll take the ship back and not give it to them. Sorry, I feel so sorry for both of us."

While they were talking, the elder sister-in-law had already taken out all the banknotes and placed the goods list all over the table. The second sister-in-law also helped to count them together.

The sound of counting money was almost inaudible amidst the laughter of children outside the house.

Ye Yaodong also chatted quietly while they were counting, and the two of them complained wildly.

After they finished counting, he got his share.

I also counted it and found a total of 8122 yuan. I took it home only after there were no problems.

A Guang followed him step by step to his home.

When Ye Yaodong handed a wad of banknotes to Lin Xiuqing, Aguang also took out a wad of red paper wrapped banknotes from his pocket and gave it to Lin Xiuqing.

"what?"

The couple were stunned, and Father Ye was also surprised.

The long, boxy shape, wrapped in red paper, is extremely familiar to everyone.

"What are you doing?"

"Without your help and advice, I wouldn't have been able to earn so much money. Here is 2000 yuan. It's a red envelope for you. Just keep it. I should just act as an intermediary and earn ten or twenty thousand yuan easily." .”

"No need, you have already waived my agency fee. The agency fee alone has already saved me one or two thousand."

"That agency fee is an agency fee. If you remove the necessary fees, you help me pay for everything. I should give you a big red envelope."

"It's really not necessary. I'll give you a head start from the beginning. From now on, it's all up to you. It's you who maintains the relationship and gives you gifts. Just remove the agency fee."

"You can't say that. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be able to earn so much money. You have to drive the boat to fish. Otherwise, no matter what, we are a partnership, so each of us has to share half, and the package is two thousand. It’s not too much to give you a red envelope.”

"If a family doesn't speak the same language, they should help each other. How can we calculate it so clearly? I can definitely make such a large sum of money for my own family. Of course, I can make it for my own family. Wherever I can give an advantage to outsiders, I will just talk. No. Whatever you do, take it back."

Father Ye also smiled and said: "Yeah, take it back, we are all a family, just come up with an idea, and you are running around doing the busy work afterwards. As for how Dongzi can divide so much money, there is no need for an intermediary." Just pay."

Ye Yaodong added, "I've made a lot in the past two months. I definitely make the most out of everyone. You should know that, so there's no need to be so polite."

When Aguang saw no one took the money, he simply put it on the table.

"One yard is one yard. My brothers have settled the score. I took it and have no intention of taking it back."

Ye Yaodong took the money on the table and stuffed it back to him, "If I didn't earn so much, I wouldn't be polite to you. Take it back, no one's money comes from the strong wind, I just have an idea , just a little help."

Ye's father also helped prevent Aguang from returning. The father and son worked together to push him out of the door, pushed him out hard and closed the door.

A Guang was pushed out of the door by them and staggered. He held the money in his hand and stared at the door. He could only stare.

Whose son-in-law is not a spoiled customer, and he comes to deliver money, but he actually pushes him out and locks him out, preventing him from entering.

What kind of family is this?

What family?

He took a wad of money in his hand, patted it in his palm, smiled silently, and stepped forward to knock on the door again.

"Hey, you can go back, there's no need to give it."

"I asked you to go to my house quickly to settle accounts and get money. The second brother is here and is at the door."

Seeing Ye Yaohua appear at the entrance of the courtyard, he quickly stuffed the banknotes on hand back into his pocket. After shouting into the room, he greeted Ye Yaohua as if nothing had happened.

Ye Yaohua looked at him with confusion, "Why are you standing at the door? Why didn't Dongzi open the door to let you in?"

"Hey, it's different. The level has gone up. I can only wait at the door."

"what?"

"It's nothing. You remember to ask them to go to my house to settle the accounts together. I'll go back and wait for you first. I also want to call Uncle Zheng to go over and settle the accounts together."

"Oh, go ahead, we'll be there in a moment."

A Guang responded and left first.

Ye Yaodong asked Lin Xiuqing to collect the money first, and then opened the door to let his second brother in.

Wang Guangliang and several other boys also came over after dinner and happened to enter the courtyard.

They also heard that Chen Shi was back after dinner. When they knew that Ye Yaodong was home, they came over immediately.

Ye Yaodong said hello to them and had no time to chat with them. He asked Lin Xiuqing to pay them their wages in advance and get them moon cakes. Then the father and son went to A Guang's house again.

They had just finished eating and had been on the boat for another day. The three of them didn't even think about riding bicycles. They just took a walk to feel more down-to-earth and comfortable.

When they arrived at Aguang's house, there were many neighbors and relatives standing in front of Aguang's house. Everyone was discussing enthusiastically how much money they had earned during this trip, and each of them had a household worth ten thousand yuan. Yes, very excited.

In fact, when the father and son walked all the way just now, every corner of the village was discussing their return and how much money they had made.

After seeing the three of them, father and son, they became even more enthusiastic. Fortunately, Aguang and Uncle Zheng came over on a bicycle, saving them from being surrounded.

At this time, the sky was also a little dark.

They didn't care about the people at the door, and closed the door after entering the house to settle accounts.

Let’s first calculate the cost of catching jellyfish.

Although the Harvest is a large ship, it is suitable for deep-sea fishing. The offshore is really not suitable for it at all. It just sits in the trench and does not need to move much, so it makes a lot of money.

It was better than an ordinary trawler. After all, it could tow six to seven thousand or eight thousand in cargo on the return trip, which made it one-third more than an ordinary fishing boat.

Its advantage ends here, otherwise its fuel consumption would not be friendly at all.

After calculating the accounts for a long time, the sky was completely dark. Ye Yaodong's three stocks were divided into exactly 4520 yuan. Adding in the accounts from the previous fishing, this trip was considered to have completely gotten back the capital.

After calculating this account, they also need to calculate the amount of the seven days before the big ship set off to catch jellyfish.

Two months have passed, but there are only four or five deep-sea fishing orders. They are very clear and easy to calculate.

Ye Huimei had already done the calculations at home, and she had listed everything well. All she had to do was take a look at the calculated accounts, put the money she had already counted on the table, and count it for them.

The three stocks in the 7 days also divided 618, and Ye Yaohua also divided the one stock 209.

If they could get this before fishing for jellyfish, everyone would be extremely happy, but there are already pearls and jade in front of them, so this money is just an added bonus for them.

But it is still very happy to have money. Who would dislike having more money? Big money and small money are money. Only by accumulating a little can you make a lot.

Ye Yaodong counted all the 5138 yuan and put it into his pocket, feeling extremely satisfied.

This time he was truly a real winner.

"Thank you for your hard work, Uncle Pei. The Harvest will have to rely on you in the future. Everyone's welfare depends on you."

"That's right. I have a lot of shares and the ship is in my hands. I can't ask for anything more."

Uncle Zheng smiled and said: "I also have to rely on you. Thank you for this trip, so that we can make a lot of money..."
