Chapter 991 Stay for a Week and Then Go Back (7000 Words)

Father Ye laughed as he listened.

"This is not pride, this is pride. Now who in the village doesn't praise me for giving birth to several good sons. When people get old, they have to rely on their children to earn face."

"Yeah, so don't always oppose my decision, and don't always worry about it. I must be confident before I mess with it... No, it's not messed up. I'm confident that I mess with it."

"You've had enough trouble now. You have two workshops at home and a few shops in the city. You can sell things and collect rent. You can be stable like this. There are still a few boats at home, and you want to order more I have made several plans, and when I get them all, I can make enough money just by collecting rent, and I won’t have to worry about anything for the rest of my life. It’s good like this, and I don’t have to do anything else.”

Ye Yaodong nodded and felt that what his father said was very reasonable. His assets were far ahead of those of today's people.

In the future, I just need to take the time to add the equipment that needs to be added, such as adding some dryers in the workshop. It will be more intelligent and there is no need to rely on labor. The scale may be expanded over time, and there is no need to do anything.

Of course, his current assets are enough for him to live comfortably for the rest of his life.

However, he is still thinking about buying a house and a shop!

After being reborn, how could he only have those few shops on hand? For middle-aged and elderly people who are illiterate and have no skills except fishing, and who are mindless, buying a lot of houses and shops is the first prerequisite for retirement.

But he only has 40,000 yuan on hand, which is not enough. How many houses and shops can he buy? There is no need for a small place, but you can’t buy a few for a big place. The accumulation of assets is still far from enough, and you have to take your time.

"You won't have to worry about it for the rest of your life. It's enough to provide for you in old age, but there are still thirty or forty years before I can take care of you. If you don't object, I can provide for you now..."

"That won't work. You've been thinking about taking care of yourself since you were young. People in their seventies or eighties still have to carry a hoe to the fields. Now you're talking about taking care of yourself..."

"Isn't that what you said? The things I have worked out now are enough for me to live comfortably for the rest of my life. I don't have to do anything else, so what else should I do? I don't have to do anything. I can just lie at home. have eaten."

Father Ye was speechless and regretted what he said.

Still can't say in front of him that he has earned enough and can support himself in old age, otherwise what if he just doesn't do anything and just lies at home and becomes a waste?

"I'm saying that these things of yours are enough to support you in old age. I don't mean that you can support you in old age now. You still have to do the work you should do. If you don't do more while you are young, you may have to work hard when you are old..."

"I know, I know, don't be nagging..."

As soon as he heard his father reciting a long speech, he got a headache. He was talking normally, but he started reciting again.

"Would you like me to sail the boat while you go and rest for a while?"

"We'll eat soon, why should we rest?"

"Isn't this because you didn't sleep in the afternoon? I've had enough sleep in the afternoon. After dinner, you can go directly to bed with your two uncles and I'll sail the boat."

"Well, let's wait until after dinner."

At this time, the fishing boat was still following closely behind the Harvest, heading directly towards the East China Sea with a clear purpose.

Just as he and his son were talking for a while, the sound of the connection came from the radio.

Father Ye immediately accepted it quickly.

It's Uncle Pei.

He was so happy that he was beaming on the other end.

"We made the right decision to dock this time. I really didn't expect those manta rays to be so valuable. Fortunately, I didn't miss them. I was smart. Otherwise, we would have been deceived and sold them casually. It's really worth it." I regret slapping my thigh.”

"Haha, we didn't expect that it was all because of his cleverness that he could sell it at such a high price. It's a pity. It should have been sold at a higher price..."

"Don't be pityful, and don't be too greedy. The price is now much higher than expected. The most important thing is to be able to get the money and leave. No matter how high your selling price is, it's useless if you can't get out of the dock."

"Yes, that's the truth. Anyway, it's good if you make money."

…

The two old men chatted extremely happily across the maritime radio station. They laughed excitedly. It was an unexpected surprise, and of course it was worth being happy about.

When you are away from home, it is quite rare to have a friend you can talk to and share things with.

Ye Yaodong suddenly felt that the marriage with A Guang was not bad. The relationship between the two families became closer and they developed together.

I don’t know if this kid has embraced the God of Wealth in the past few years, making money while lying comfortably at home. I don’t know what kind of bad luck he has, and he is almost surpassing his Mazu’s godson.

Fortunately, he is still better.

Ma De, I didn’t expect that changing my name would be so powerful. This Feng Shui metaphysics is also quite powerful. Sure enough, you can’t just believe in science, you also have to believe in fantasy.

Directly changing from Pei Guang to Pei Bu.

Ye Yaodong listened in the cockpit for a while and then went down to the deck. Only their two boats were shining on the dark sea. The sea wind whistled in his ears. If he didn't pay attention, the hat on his head was blown off.

He quickly stretched out his hand to catch it, but, bang, it fell into the sea, and his hair was blown into a big back, exposing his forehead.

"ah……"

"Why...Brother Dongdong?"

"It's okay, my hat was blown into the sea by the wind."

"My... give it to you..." With that, Chen Shi loosened the rope tied around his chin and took off the hat on his head.

"No need, I have another one in the cabin."

Ah Qing even hooked up a sewing hat for him a few years ago, saying that it would keep him warmer and not be afraid of being blown off by the wind.

It's just that he didn't want to wear the new one when he saw it, so he put it in the suitcase, intending to take the old one with him first. Anyway, it was very dirty on the boat, so it would be a pity to bring the new one. He would just take it out to wear after dinner.

"How do you feel? Are you still afraid of the sea on all sides?"

He shook his head, "Go to Zhejiang Province, won't it... be... too big... to feel, there are so many boats... yesterday and yesterday..."

"I know that I ran far away yesterday, surrounded by water, and there was only one boat floating alone in the middle of the sea. I will have a phobia of the deep sea. I was like this when I first went to sea. It will be better if I stay back for a long time."

He nodded.

"Your stuttering is much better now. Talk more and practice more. If you can't speak out, just say two words or two and it will be fine."

"Yeah." He looked at Ye Yaodong with a grateful face.

Ye Yaodong also patted him on the shoulder, "I'll float for a few more days, depending on the weather. If it's good, I'll stay a few more days and collect more goods."

He continued to nod.

"It's time to eat~"

After someone shouted, they responded, stopped communicating, and went to eat first.

It was already 7 o'clock after the meal. Ye Yaodong ran to sail the boat, followed the Harvest, and asked everyone else to rest.

Anyway, there is no need to take off the net. If you can rest on the boat, you can take a break as soon as possible. Otherwise, normal fishing is 24 hours a day and you can only work in shifts, which is quite hard.

They will probably have to drive at full strength for another three or four hours before they start fishing again. Then they will start their shift. Setting down the net now will only waste time. The offshore sea is not as good as the open sea, and the depth of the sea is not enough. A fishing net more than 300 meters long will be hung up if it is lowered. end.

Under the roar of the machine, the fishing boat sailed in the deep darkness. The rough waves continued to hit the hull, making waves of low roars, as if telling the story of the sea. The fishing boat also brought waves as it moved forward. .

The moonlight shines on the hull of the ship, reflecting a silvery white light, which is in sharp contrast to the surrounding darkness.

Having the Harvest leading the way saved him a lot of trouble. He didn't have to pay full attention to the direction at all times, he just had to follow along.

The two boats were galloping on the sea one after another. During the boring journey, only the sound of wind, waves and the roar of machines accompanied their ears.

Ye Yaodong was quite used to the cigarette butts falling to the ground one after another.

From the moment it got dark, before 6 o'clock, he started running away from the shore until after 9 o'clock. He watched the Harvest slow down, and the distance between the two fishing boats shortened instantly. It turned out that they were about to start lowering the net. .

After the Dongsheng crossed the Harvest, he also slowed down and went to the cabin to wake up Chen Shi and another boatman.

They had all slept in the afternoon, so they could work the midnight shift with him, wait until dawn broke, and then go back to the cabin to sleep until noon, so that everyone could get enough sleep.

The two of them always bring up new people. After the day before yesterday, Chen Shi was very skillful in working together to get off the net. He did whatever the master told him to do, and he was very diligent.

Ye Yaodong slowed down the boat and started a new round of fishing.

The moment I lowered the net again, it was exactly twelve hours since I was on my way to the end of the morning fishing. I didn’t catch anything for half a day, and I probably caught 4 less nets. Fortunately, it was worth wasting this time.

The two people who had lowered the net returned to the cabin to rest. After all, they had just lowered the net and there was no work on the boat. They had to wait for the fishing net to be collected before they could sort the goods.

Only Ye Yaodong was still driving the boat diligently, and luckily it wasn't cold in the cockpit.

During the trawling operation, they unexpectedly encountered a fishing boat. In fact, they did not see the fishing boat. They just saw a little light on the sea. They could tell that it was the faint light on the fishing boat, and it was not like the golden eye sea bream that appeared in the early hours of yesterday morning. aperture.

However, it only took a moment before the other party sailed out of their sight and left the end of the coastline, which did not affect their fishing.

After twelve o'clock, it is the twelfth day of the first lunar month.

There was no need for Ye Yaodong to call, the two of them would come out at the right time.

He also took the opportunity to call them to set up the net.

This online product is unremarkable, a miscellaneous pile, but it weighs quite a lot. When it is dumped on the deck, it weighs three to four thousand pounds by visual inspection.

Compared with the two nets hauled in the early morning yesterday, which weighed six to seven thousand kilograms, it was a little less, but it was not much different from the two nets hauled on the first day, but there was no particularly valuable goods.

After pouring out all the goods, they immediately put the fishing net down, continued their work, and then started sorting the goods on the deck again.

After Ye Yaodong took control of the fishing boat, he also went down to take a look. There were quite a lot of worthless groceries. He saw five or six large jellyfish, which weighed at least three to four hundred kilograms.

There was nothing special about him, so he stopped staying on the deck to blow the cold air, and went directly back to the cockpit. After they finished sorting, he went down to take a look at the sorted goods, and watched them clean up the goods to be dumped into the sea. .

It’s really something that I never tire of seeing. As time goes by, there will be fewer and fewer of them. If you don’t look at them more now, you won’t be able to see them in the future.

But when he finished cleaning and looking at it, his mind started to move again.

Before, I thought that no one would follow me, and I was afraid that the person I was looking for would be unreliable and unable to keep accounts, so I didn’t dare to order more fishing boats like this.

Thinking about it now, he might be able to set up a special cargo collection and transportation company to collect the goods from several of his own ships every day and sell them at the shore, so that he doesn't have to sell to the fresh goods collection ships and earn half of the money for others.

You can make money for yourself by carrying a few ships of cargo.

Of course, the price of receiving the goods is still based on the price of the fresh harvesting ship. In this way, all expenditures are provided by the fresh harvesting ship. After a 50-50 split, it is equivalent to a ship eating three-quarters of it itself, and only one-quarter is given to the invited ship boss. .

This will not make less money for the ship boss. At least it is better than earning a dead salary as a shipwreck, which is equivalent to giving a 2.5 share of the net income.

After deducting labor expenses, you can probably still earn 20%, which is better than owning an offshore trawler, and it also allows others to fish with all their heart.

And his several boats can earn half as much, and he will soon be able to earn enough to transport the fishing boats.

The more Ye Yaodong thought about it, the more he thought it was feasible. As long as the fishing boat didn't travel too far for work, it could dock in five or six hours, and it could go back and forth every day.

Moreover, all the garbage on the ship can be put to use, so that the transport ship can come back and forth every other day. After it is sold, it will come back to carry the garbage and groceries, and it will be sent back almost every other day.

The time utilization rate is full, and the fishing boat is not idle at all, and the people on the boat are not very happy. It only takes a little physical effort when transporting, but the fishing boat can rest and relax while sailing.

Then the output of his two workshops can also be increased!

Not to mention the fermented fish sauce, you don’t even have to buy the dried fish outside. You can just bring it back with your own fishing boat every other day. It’s tens of thousands of kilograms, which is guaranteed to kill them all. It can also increase the employment rate of women in the village!

Thinking of this, he slapped the console. This was a multi-purpose move.

When I have more boats, in addition to making more money, the caught goods are not wasted at all, and there is no need to throw them back into the sea.

It can also be transported to production, and then to sales and wholesale. It’s a one-stop service.

While increasing production capacity, it can also speed up the recovery of fishing boats.

And the most important thing is that the fishing boat weighs the goods from other boats and handles them all by itself. It is not afraid of others making trouble or failing to keep accounts, and it all has the final say.

All the initiative is in his own hands, and it is simply his own voice.

Moreover, when he has more fishing boats, of course he will also develop a fishing scale and have his own fleet...

Ye Yaodong didn't dare to think about it any further. He didn't dare to imagine what he would do after having his own team...

You can probably wake up laughing from your dream.

Ship Wangdong!

No longer a salty fish dong!

Just thinking about it, his mouth broke into a big smile, and he was already happy without having to dream.

However, he had to take a look at the fishing situation in the past few days, otherwise his father would definitely have to tell him, so he took the initiative. The new boat had just gone out to sea, and he was ready to toss bigger ones. He had just been told to let him Don't bother.

He thought about those seven ships, and for a moment he felt reluctant to give them up. He had originally planned to settle them and take advantage of the delivery date.

Maybe it can be transferred to Azheng Xiaoxiao then?

But he is not in a hurry now. The output of a big ship like his can only be produced by the small factory in the county every year, which is limited to two or three. The one he partners with his eldest brother and second brother will be scheduled for next year. If he makes another reservation , it will have to be postponed until the year after tomorrow.

I still have to wait until I get back and think about it with Ah Qing. It’s hard to think about it alone.

Ye Yaodong takes one step and thinks ten steps. When he gains one point, he thinks ten points.

While he was thinking wildly, all the goods on the deck were sorted out. Nearly 30% of the goods had to be dumped into the sea, leaving only 70%, about two thousand kilograms, that could be sold, of which the toad fish still accounted for half, and then They are other scattered goods, some are expensive for a few cents, and some are cheap for a few cents.

"This network only has so much? It can only be sold for a hundred yuan at most, right?"

The old master smiled and said: "This is a normal harvest. We had bad luck the day before yesterday and early yesterday morning."

This is true.

Compared with the previous harvest of Harvest, I made a week's worth of money in one day.

Compared to the trawler at home, not to mention, it can be worth two years of harvest.

The old boatman added: "If you can sell this net for more than a hundred yuan, it's already great. It's worth two days of working on your boat at home."

"Ah, yes, yes...I was greedy, thinking everything was the same as yesterday morning."

"Two or three thousand jins in one net is considered normal, and more than four thousand jins is considered very good. Yesterday morning, the seven or eight thousand jins in the net were really blessed by Mazu, and they encountered a school of fish."

"Well, you guys carry it in first, and I'll clean up the deck."

"well……"

A large broom made of woven bamboo strips can't be swept away even if it is smashed. It is heavy even if it is scattered and stacked there.

Ye Yaodong swept it into a small pile and inserted the bucket directly into the fish pile from the bottom. Then he squatted down and pulled the bucket with both hands. When it was full, he took a bamboo basket and poured it into it, and then continued.

It wasn't until more than a dozen baskets were loaded that all the goods on the deck were cleared and put into the baskets.

They also moved the goods to the fish hold and put them almost there before continuing to unload the goods.

"I'll come, I'll come..."

"No, no, no, I'll do it! I haven't experienced the feeling of dumping a whole basket of goods into the sea."

"Hehehe... What's the matter? As long as we are at sea, we will have to dump several thousand kilograms every day for the next few days."

After Ye Yaodong finished speaking, he immediately lifted the entire basket and put it on his shoulders. Then he walked to the side of the ship and poured it down.

"Wow~"

The sound of a large piece of cargo falling into the water stirred up large waves of water.

The old boatman and Chen Shi next to him also carried a basket and poured it down.

He tried emptying two baskets, and after experiencing it for a while, he gave up and returned to the cockpit to avoid the cold wind blowing outside.

When they finished emptying the goods, he continued to collect another net, and continued to lower the net without stopping, while the two people on the deck followed closely.

Not easy at all.

This online product is not much different from the previous one. It is not bad at all, and it is not very good at all. It can only be said that it is better than the previous one.

After Ye Yaodong took a look at the harvest, he found no surprise, so he returned to the cockpit, not preparing to blow the cold wind on the deck.

After waiting all night, he had been looking forward to seeing if the halo of light from yesterday morning might reappear on the surrounding sea, but he was disappointed. There was no sign of anything.

Not to mention the strange phenomena of heaven and earth, there weren't even many red fish in the fishing net, not to mention the golden-eyed sea bream. They were all black toad fish and a bunch of black fish.

It wasn't until after five o'clock in the morning, when the sky was just breaking, and the red light appeared on the horizon, that he went to the cabin to wake up his father and others.

"This net will be put away soon. You should get up and take over your shift immediately."

"Okay, I hauled a few nets at night, are there any good ones?"

"The net was lowered around nine o'clock. I slowly drove towards the East China Sea while lowering the net. Maybe because I was close to the sea, the harvest was not that good. The weight of the net was about three to four thousand kilograms, half of which were toads and miscellaneous fish. Fish account for one-third, and the rest is other goods. What is ready to be collected now is the third net."

"That's okay, that's not bad. I can sell it for more than a hundred yuan at a time. It's a sure bet."

"Yeah, so fortunately I didn't hesitate when I docked yesterday, and I didn't worry too much about whether staying at sea would yield better results, otherwise I would have suffered a huge loss."

"Is the porridge cooked?"

"It's cooked. It was just cooked in advance and still simmering in the pot. We've already eaten it. It's still seafood porridge with some green leafy vegetables. It's a bit chewy. Eat it quickly."

"Okay, then you should rest quickly. We will go out to have a few bites and then collect the nets."

Ye Yaodong didn't care about anyone else. He took off his clothes and trousers and immediately got into bed. He looked at the photos posted on the wall behind the bed and took a few more glances before falling asleep with the roaring in his ears.

It wasn't until he woke up at noon that he realized that the net he had set up when he went to bed had a good harvest, better than the previous two nets. He netted more than a thousand kilograms of Polly fish, which was also red.

He stretched, "It's gloomy again today, there's no sunshine at all, and the sea breeze blowing feels even colder."

"That's because you just woke up and stepped out of the cabin, so you feel very cold."

"That's about it. You guys have been standing on the deck blowing for most of the day, so you're used to it. How many kilograms of goods have been put into the fish warehouse in this long time?"

"The one net that was set up at half past five does not count. You have only set up two nets by now when you wake up. This one will have to wait until two o'clock."

"oh."

"The food is in the pot. We just finished it and it's still warm. Go and eat it yourself."

"good."

Ye Yaodong turned around to brush his teeth first, only to see the other two people coming out of the cabin, stretching sleepily, peeing with their backs to him, and then eating directly.

well!

It's rare to find someone as hygienic as he is.

"Is this pot of seafood cooked last night? When you finish eating, throw away all the leftovers. Later, go to the cabin to get some fat and cook another pot. The next one won't be so fast."

They both nodded as they ate.

That's it on the boat. There's nothing else. There's enough seafood, so you can eat whatever you want.

The calm fishing lasted for two days before the entire fish bin was filled. Ye Yaodong also felt that this was a normal situation. It was abnormal for the fish and shrimps he encountered on the first day at sea to be full.

When the shift was handed over in the early morning, Ye Yaodong reminded his father.

"Dad, it's time to contact the fresh fish collection ship. After one night, the fish hold is already full, and the next collection has to be piled on the deck. It's time to contact the fresh food collection ship to come and collect all the goods."

"Okay, I understand. You can go and have a rest. I will contact you later to see when the fresh harvest ship will arrive today. I will also tell my parents-in-law about the situation there and let him know. Just collected it in one piece."

"Then you connect first. I'm going to take a nap. It should be about the same when I wake up."

Ye Yaodong yawned heavily and stayed up all night again. Today it was his father who had to stay up half the night and he the rest.

"When are you going to land back?"

Calculating today is the fourteenth day of the lunar calendar, the fifth day of going to sea. It seems that the harvest in these two days is not very good, but fortunately, the harvest of the first day can top it.

However, although the weather has been cloudy these two days, the wind and waves are not too strong to handle, so we can still fish at sea as usual.

"It takes a long time to go back and forth. If you can stay for two more days, just stay for two more days. The goods will be received in these two days. Stay for another two days and wait until the fifteenth is over. Then go back on the sixteenth?"

"Just one more day of fishing in this area. Let's walk back slowly in the direction of the return trip, fishing as we go. Arrive home on the 16th? It should be enough to accumulate a cabin of cargo in just two days. When we dock, it will be just right. sold?"

"Then in the next two days, let's also pick up all the useless goods and keep them back? Two days should be enough to accumulate a cabin. By the way, we will also inform Uncle Pei and ask him to take the next two days and put all the goods on the ship back. Pick up all the goods you need and take them back, bring more.”

It's enough to go out fishing for seven days. This is the first time we go out. It's long enough to stay there for so many days. I have to go back home to see if anything happens.

"Okay, it's okay to stay for another two days. It's enough to go back and rest for a day or two after being out for a week, and then replenish supplies before coming out."

It was not until the afternoon that the fish harvesting ship contacted by Ye's father arrived late. It was not easy to find a fish ship to collect the goods at sea. It was necessary to identify the direction.

The type of fresh-harvesting ship is similar to that of a general refrigerated transport ship, but its tonnage is not large. The capacity of the fish tank ranges from tens to hundreds of tons, depending on the size of the fresh-harvesting ship.

The fresh harvesting boat coming towards them was obviously not big. Ye Yaodong looked at the length of the boat, which was only about thirty meters long. It looked very dilapidated, not far from falling apart, and had a full sense of age.

But he is considered a big guy in this day and age, but I don’t know if he has a certificate.

It looks no different from their trawler, except that the fish warehouse will be much larger and other fishing machines have been removed from the ship.

In the future, those fresh-harvesting boats will need a certificate to harvest seafood at sea.

Ye Yaodong saw seven large blue barrels on the deck of the approaching fishing boat. They were filled with various fresh fish and covered with ice. The most likely to be toad fish, ice.

"The harvest boat is here!"

"It's finally here. I contacted him in the morning, but he didn't come until the afternoon."

At noon, I visited St. Andrew's Church and the Merlion Park with the authors of Mi Tian, ​​Hua Daddy, What's Wrong, Jingting, Ting Bao, Shrimp, and Weeping Cat, and then went to Chinatown for lunch at 3 o'clock. Northeastern cuisine! Add snow ice city!

Speaking of which, I have to complain. I overslept my first meal in Singapore and had no breakfast. I woke up at 11 to eat at McDonald’s! ! ! Because I couldn't find anything to eat.

Immediately afterwards, we took a taxi to the Gardens by the Bay. We were already half exhausted after walking all afternoon. We sat at the entrance of the Gardens by the Bay for half an hour, and then headed back home. We didn’t even bother to go in. We were laughing so hard, here we are. The door is now here.

It was already 5:30 when I got back to the hotel, and I continued typing. In Singapore, the sun didn’t set until 7:30, and it was getting dark. Then we, the writers, and the god of hell were added, and we went out to Clark Quay to find food at 9:00. , but it was past ten o'clock when I walked there, and many shops were closed.

After walking around for a long time, my feet were blistered, and then everyone came back to eat at McDonald's. I didn't want to eat, so I went back to the hotel and continued typing, and then sent out the remaining words.

It’s not easy. I almost starved to death when I came to Singapore.

I’m embarrassed to tell others that when I came to Singapore, I ate McDonald’s, Northeastern cuisine, and Mixue Bingcheng. I thought that when I came to the tropics, I would have free access to fruits. However, after three days here, I didn’t see any fruit sellers. I’ve only seen very small convenience stores, but never a supermarket. It’s so hard to be a country bumpkin! !
