Chapter 1031 Blackmail (Additional Update: 6200, Monthly Ticket +4)
Ye Yaodong followed the two dogs and walked to the middle of the beach. In this small area, there was a pile of rocks surrounded by sand. If he continued to walk to the far left of the beach, the Mazu Temple would appear.
Now the beach is still very natural, but it is dirty and messy. The whole village throws garbage on the beach, and there are all kinds of rags on the beach. At low tide, many wild dogs come to the beach to look for food.
In addition to this pile of rocks, there is also a small puddle nearby, with rocks of all sizes.
When digging clams, they habitually dig under the soft sand. It happened that Ah Qing was taking his children. Children like to play in the sand, so of course they should take them to a cleaner and softer place to play.
So much so that the position where he walked out now was more than 100 meters away from them, which was not close at all. The beach in front of his house was not small even when the tide was completely low.
It is still a few hundred meters away from the lowest point of the tide.
"Is it right here?"
Ye Yaodong squatted down directly with a bucket in one hand and the snail fossil in the other, and casually put the snail fossil into a pile of stones for comparison.
"It is indeed very conspicuous. No wonder you put this stone in your mouth and took it back. Is it because it looks good?"
The Dalmatian barked twice, then continued to pick up the stone, put it in his mouth, and then spit it into the bucket. He was particularly persistent and wanted him to take it back.
"You also think this is a treasure, don't you?"
The dog ignored him and started trotting around beside him, shaking its hair after walking a few steps.
Xiao Heizi was still squatting next to him.
He patted the dog's head and said, "Go and look for me again. Remember, look for stones with this pattern."
After Xiao Heizi barked, he also started trotting around.
Ye Yaodong continued to take out the snail fossil from the bucket, played with it in his hand, and scanned the surrounding area.
The sun in the morning is warm, and the spring rain is warm. The air feels much fresher in the morning after the rain. Although the smell of the sea is still the same in the nose, the sea breeze blowing has become warmer. It's not as cold as the previous two days.
It had been so cold the past two days that he felt like he was going to freeze to death in the spring, especially the night before he had a cold.
He kicked and tugged among the rocks, but he didn't see the same rocks again, but he did find a lot of jumping fish, enough to make a handful of pickles at noon.
It's no wonder that his grandfather came to the beach to beg and never left. There was really something to eat, and just picking it up was enough to fill his stomach.
At this time, Xiao Heizi trotted up to him, then rubbed the bucket in his hand, and he quickly lowered the bucket, "What did you find?"
Xiao Heizi opened his mouth, and with a clang, a black pebble fell into the bucket.
Ye Yaodong thought he had gained something again, but when he took a closer look, he saw that it was just ordinary pebbles. He was afraid that he might have misjudged his eyes, so he looked back and forth twice, and then shined it in the sun, and then he hit the dog's head with a stone.
"I don't want to just pick up all the junk. Go ahead and go. I only want stones with many textures."
After Xiao Heizi whimpered, he turned his head and turned around again.
When he turned around to continue searching, the Dalmatian also ran up to him, but it had a Jiefang shoe full of holes in its mouth.
Ye Yaodong went over and kicked it aside, "What you're holding in your mouth is worse than a broken stone. Go away, I don't want broken shoes."
After he kicked the shoe out of the Dalmatian's mouth, he picked it up again and ran straight home.
"Silly dog, I thought you were smart just now. It seems I can only rely on myself."
Ye Yaodong was looking for rocks and fish, picking up whatever he could find. Fortunately for him, he picked up half a bucket of jumping fish.
Just when he felt that his waist and neck were sore and he was about to go home, he heard a burst of dog barking.
Forty or fifty meters away, Xiao Heizi was scolding a group of children. The children didn't know why they were kicking it. After seeing it, he immediately walked forward.
But the Dalmatian arrived faster than him. It galloped past him from behind, then jumped on a child and bit his cotton-padded jacket. It scared the child and made him cry and shake. holding arms.
"Go away, 5555~go away~stinky dog~"
"Xiaohua Xiaohei is back."
After he shouted, the two dogs reluctantly walked out of the crowd of children. After barking twice, they ran to his feet.
"What's wrong? Why are you fighting with the children?"
The group of children complained: "It wanted to steal our rocks, so we beat it."
"What kind of stone?"
Ye Yaodong took a closer look, and his eyes immediately widened. He had just been looking for the snail fossils for a long time, and there was actually a small pile here?
And the shapes are different, some are like stones, and some are like snails.
The conch-shaped ones are particularly easy to identify, and one of them is as big as Ye Xiaoxi’s face.
"It's just these rocks. This smelly dog came over and tried to grab my rocks, so I beat him. I thought he was a wild dog."
Children are naturally afraid of adults, and they were a little scared when they saw that this was an owned dog, but they still had the courage to say it.
"Did you just pick up these rocks?"
"Yes, we saw that these stones looked different, but they all had patterns, so we picked a bunch and put them here to play with."
He squatted down with surprise on his face and took a closer look at the pile of large and small stones on the ground. Most of them were bigger than his fist, and the smaller ones were at least the size of a baby's fist. The ones in his bucket were That one is the smallest.
After looking back and forth several times, he determined that they were all snail fossils.
It's a pity that this is like a gambling stone. It hasn't been opened, so you don't know if there are crystal stones in it. And like the top-quality jade, the probability is extremely low, but this rough stone is worth some money, mainly because it is quite beautiful.
The children looked at him and felt a little at a loss.
The oldest child inside looked as big as Ye Chenghu, and he said boldly: "We picked this up, it belongs to us, you can't take it."
Others quickly nodded in agreement.
Ye Yaodong looked at them with a smile, "Can I buy from you?"
A group of children looked at him in surprise.
"Ah, you want to buy rocks?"
"Why did you buy the stone?"
"Then will you sell it?"
"Sell! Sell! Sell!" Everyone said in unison excitedly.
I would be a fool not to sell it, so I randomly picked up a patterned stone to play with. Unexpectedly, there were adults who wanted to buy it.
Ye Yaodong touched his pocket and took out a few cents and a few cents. These were left over from shopping in town two days ago. He put the large amount in the drawer and the small change in his pocket.
He lightly nodded the heads. There were 6 children, big and small, but not yet old enough. He thought that ten cents per person was a bit too much. Except for his family, no other children had so much money in their hands. It was easy to take too much. Get yourself into trouble.
If the child told him about it at home, the adults might think it was some rare thing that he had tricked.
"It's 5 cents per person. Here are three cents. You divide it among yourself, and then this pile of stones belongs to me."
Everyone's eyes were instantly brighter than the stars in the sky, and they were so excited.
"Really? Do you really give us 5 cents each?"
"Uncle, you didn't lie to us, did you?"
"Really, take it and share it. If you pick up a stone with this pattern and one that looks like a conch in the future, take it to my house and I'll buy it from you. I'll live in a house on the beach with a wall in front and a yard. .”
The oldest child took the money from his hand and said happily: "I know, you are my father's friend."
"ah?"
Ye Yaodong looked at the eldest child in bewilderment. Upon closer inspection, he looked familiar. Isn't this the second child in the Mouse family? I remember it was called Chen Jianxing.
In his previous life, he had often seen this child's appearance when he grew up, but he didn't quite recognize his appearance as a child.
Now if I look carefully, there are vague traces of the mouse wife. The son looks like his mother. He hasn't had much contact with her since she was reborn. He hasn't seen his son either, so he didn't recognize him at first.
Isn't this child the same age as Ye Chenghu? You haven't gone to school yet? Still staying home and playing?
"Uncle, what are you doing with these stones?"
"I'm just like you. I think these stones look good, so I want to take them back and play with them."
"I still have some at home, do you want them? I have several more at home. There is a big flat one that my mother used to use as a table leg. It is as big as the biggest one. There is also a big one on the window at the door that looks like a stone. Yes, I usually use them to crack snails and feed them to the ducks." Chen Jianxing said with expectation, his eyes shining brightly.
"Okay. If you give me the stone your mother used to hold the table leg, will she hit you?"
"I can just pick another one up and replace it."
"Okay, give me your family members, and I'll give you another 10 cents. Don't let your mother know, otherwise, you won't be able to keep your money."
He nodded happily, "I know."
Ye Yaodong looked at the other children who had shared the money with bright smiles on their faces, "Do you have any at home? If you have, you can bring it to me in exchange for money."
Everyone shook their heads, looking regretful, "No."
"Forget it then, I'll take all these."
"Yeah, take it."
Ye Yaodong harvested a pile of stones and happily greeted the two dogs home.
The bucket became heavy with a pile of stones. To avoid crushing the jumping fish, he tilted the bucket and slowly put the stones in. He held the largest one in his hand. .
When he got home, Ah Qing and his two children hadn't come back yet. He couldn't take care of the three of them for the moment. As soon as he got home, he took out the stones in the bucket and studied them first.
The old lady was sitting at the door, basking in the sun, looking curiously.
"Why did you pick up so many rocks?"
"Do you know about fossilized snails?"
"What is the snail fossil? Are these spots on it?" The old lady didn't wear reading glasses, so she couldn't look carefully.
"No, forget it if I don't know."
"Why are you picking them up here? Do we have any table legs that need padding? We picked up so many of them, big and small."
"It looked pretty good, so I picked it up and played with it."
After hearing what he said, the old lady ignored him after picking it up. Instead, she stretched her neck to look at the contents of the bucket. After seeing a lot of jumping fish, she went into the house to get scissors and prepared to help kill them.
Ye Yaodong was sitting at the door of his house playing with these stones. It felt quite novel. He didn't recognize them before. It was all thanks to the short video. He is also a seaside person. When he sees some strange things in the sea, he will stop for a few seconds. Second.
Big data updates, and then videos of these weird things will be pushed out, so that he can understand more.
Otherwise, how would he know the purpose and peculiarity of these stones at the door of his house.
If these stones were sold directly as raw stones, in the future, the small ones would be worth a few hundred yuan, and the big ones might be worth a thousand yuan.
This is not important. What is important is that there may be a surprise. Although the probability is quite low, such a small pile can be worth a lot of money even if nothing is photographed.
No matter how small a mosquito's legs are, it's just meat. You can't see how much money you can make now, so you can't look down on these things that will be worth hundreds or thousands of dollars in the future. There are so many here, and together they should be worth thousands or tens of thousands of dollars.
Besides, everyone has a gambler's mentality, what if.
He touched the middle of his forehead. What a pity. Why didn't he have his eyes opened in this life? Otherwise, he could tell at a glance!
Then go straight to xJ Myanmar, where you can enjoy spicy food and no need to fish in such a hard way.
"Hahaha~"
After he laughed loudly, he stopped and shook his head. He probably wouldn't live for more than a year if it really opened his eyes.
"Why are you kid laughing like this all of a sudden?" The old lady quickly put down the scissors in confusion and touched his forehead, "He doesn't have a fever either."
"I'm fine, I just thought of something funny."
"It's fine if you don't have a fever."
After the old lady felt relieved, she continued to pick up the scissors and kill the fish.
Ye Yaodong played with a pile of stones curiously for a while, waiting for the mouse son to bring him two more big stones.
But instead of waiting for his son, he also waited for his wife.
As soon as he entered the door, the stinky woman pushed her son and cursed him.
"Bring back the stone you just picked up. This stone looks special. You sold it for 5 cents. You even stripped me of my skin. Bring it back to me quickly."
The two dogs in the yard immediately barked at them, and the mouse wife kicked her son while pushing him and scolding him.
"I asked you to go in and get it. The pestle here is like a wooden stake. Do you want to beat me to death?"
Chen Jianxing's eyes were still filled with tears. He lowered his head and walked up to him, "I'm sorry, uncle. My mother said this stone is valuable and asked me to take it home instead of selling it."
"Okay, I just gave you thirty cents. If you pay me back the thirty cents, I will return the stone to you."
Before Chen Jianxing could say anything, his mother immediately rushed forward with a roar.
"Why do you want me to pay thirty cents for a piece of crappy stone? Are you crazy about money?"
Ye Yaodong stood up, crossed his arms, and smiled coldly, "Didn't you still say that this stone is valuable? Now you are saying that a rotten stone is not worth thirty cents? I just bought it for thirty cents. If you want it, then take three cents." If you pay me a dime, I will give it to you. I don’t care, I just bought it to play with because it looked good. Who made me rich?"
"It's great to be rich. I said this beautiful stone cost more than 30 cents. You tricked the child and sold it to you for 30 cents..."
"He sold it to me and I bought it. You agree with me. If you regret it and think the stone is more valuable, then give me the money and return it to you. I didn't say I won't pay it back. Then you accept my money. You You have to give it back to me.”
"Who gave you 30 cents? My son said it was only 5 cents."
"That's because six of their children picked up this pile of stones. I gave them thirty cents to share among six of them, so it's five cents per person. Now if you want to buy the stones back, you must give me thirty cents." Mao, because I just spent 30 cents to buy this bunch."
The mouse's wife was blocked and didn't know what to say. She definitely couldn't pay if she was asked to pay. She didn't come here to buy stones.
She simply grabbed her son's ear and lifted it up, "Who asked you to sell it? This pile of stones is obviously worth 30 yuan, but who asked you to sell it for only 30 cents?"
Chen Jianxing immediately covered his ears and started crying, "I don't know, you obviously used it to pad the table legs..."
"Nonsense, I kept the stone in the cabinet and kept it well. It was just when I saw you stealing my stone that I became suspicious, and then I realized that you sold this pile of stones for 5 cents."
Ye Yaodong watched this stinky woman acting expressionlessly, while his elder sister-in-law and second sister-in-law next door were already attracted by the movement in his yard.
The other neighbors were a little far away, so they didn't affect the surrounding area for a while.
"What kind of stone?"
"What is this for?"
The two sisters-in-law asked curiously.
The mouse wife opened her eyes and told lies, "A Dong is bullying children because he is an adult. He asked my son to buy this pile of such good stones for 5 cents. I came here specially to ask for it."
Ye Yaodong corrected her, "It's 30 cents, not 5 cents. This pile of stones does not belong to your son alone, but was picked up by many children together. I saw that I liked it, so I gave each of them 5 cents to buy it." Eat sweets in exchange for these rocks.”
"I don't care if it's 5 yuan or 30 cents. This stone is just not worth it. I've heard people say that these stones are beautiful and valuable. This pile is worth 30 yuan. You have to pay me the difference, otherwise you return these. Give me."
The two sisters-in-law almost opened their eyes in surprise.
"What kind of stone is so valuable?"
"Do you think it's jade or jade? You don't steal money like this. You can say as much as you want with your lips. A robber doesn't rely on just one mouth. The God of Wealth is not as powerful as you. He can also turn stones into gold. Yes." Sister-in-law Ye opened her mouth to sarcastically.
Sister-in-law Ye also sneered, "Are you crazy about money? Just say 30 yuan for a few stones. Can I go to the beach to pick up a few and sell them to you?"
"Didn't you see that the pattern on this stone is so unusual? It is not an ordinary stone. Such a pile is worth 30 yuan. You can't bully a child who is young and doesn't know the goods and bought it for 30 cents."
"I didn't bully the child for being young and ignorant. If you don't like it, just take it back. Give me the three cents, and I didn't say not to give it back to you."
Sister-in-law Ye was so happy, "You saw A Dong using money to buy sweets for the children, so you thought these stones were valuable, so you came to blackmail them in the name of it? If it grows a flower, it is also a stone. , tell me what else this stone can be used for besides padding the corner of the table?"
"You can still hit people." The old lady knocked on the stool next to Ye Yaodong with her crutch and complained. "I picked up a pile of broken stones and made me feel embarrassed. I quickly returned it to her, which is exactly thirty cents." When I get it back, I can make two bottles of soy sauce.”
"I also want to give it back to her. I don't want it anymore. I don't know where the fool comes from. You are stupid and you treat others as fools? This pile of broken stones is said to be sold for 30 yuan. It makes people laugh."
After Ye Yaodong finished speaking to the old lady, he glared at the rat wife again, "Hurry up and give me 30 cents and take it away. You can take this thing worth 30 yuan back and save it yourself."
The rat's wife would not pay the thirty cents, so she patted her son again and said, "Who told you to sell it? I only gave you 5 cents, but you asked me to give you 30 cents in exchange. Why?" "
His son was beaten repeatedly, and he hid angrily. "You insist on telling him to buy a stone that is obviously useless. It must be valuable. You have to come over and ask for compensation."
After saying that, he quickly ran away.
"Come back to me? Let's see if I peel off your skin when I get back."
Ye Yaodong stood on the steps and looked down at him, "Do you still want these stones?"
The Mouse Wife touched her pocket and took out another one the size of an adult's fist and handed it to him. She smiled and said, "I have another one as big as this. Do you want it? If so, I'll sell it to you. I still have it at home." There was a bigger one. My son went back to steal it. When I caught him, he told me that he wanted to buy it, so he stole it from me and wanted to send it over."
"If you want to buy this stone, just tell me. Why are you bullying a child who is ignorant and coaxing him to steal things from home..."
"Wait a minute... I didn't coax him to steal anything from the house. I just thought these stones looked different and looked a little nice, so I gave them a few cents to buy candies and exchanged them for this pile of stones. He said he still had some at home and wanted to bring them to me in exchange for candies, so don’t confuse right and wrong."
"Then it's true that he stole things from home and sent them to you. If you want them, just tell me..."
Ye Yaodong rolled his eyes and waved his hand away impatiently, "I don't want it anymore. Get out of here quickly. Who cares about your broken rocks? If you don't want to use thirty cents to redeem that pile of rocks, then get out of here." , I don’t have time to chat with you here.”
"No, I can sell it to you cheaper..."
"No more."
"Then give me back the pile of rocks. My son is ignorant..."
"Fuck, don't you understand human language? I can give it back to you, but then you take the money. I bought it with money. You just ask me to give it back to you with empty words. Where do you get your face? Your face is rimmed with gold. , or are you talking about gold?"
"Obviously you bullied the child into being ignorant and asked him to steal family items and give them to you..."
"I don't care about your broken stones. Roll them with your broken stones." Ye Yaodong was so annoyed with this woman, why didn't she get divorced?
Sister-in-law Ye and Sister-in-law Ye also helped push her out, but she stumbled a little while pushing.
It wasn't until she pushed out of the door that she saw the mouse hurried over, and she immediately cursed, "Did you see? This is your friend, coaxing the child to steal things from home, and also kicked me out..."
Mouse slapped him directly, "It's embarrassing for you to throw it out there. Are you embarrassed? Can you show some face?"
Mouse's wife was instantly furious. She rushed in and scratched him, "I'm shameless. Why am I shameless? Do you think you are so shameless? You are still a friend. Damn, I'm so ridiculous. Believe it or not, I'll do it to you." What happened?"
"You crazy woman, you're not crazy enough at home, you're still crazy outside. You want to die, don't you?"
"You are the only one who wants to die. If you want to die, you must die first..."
Ye Yaodong stared dumbfounded at the two people fighting just outside his house.
Sister-in-law Ye and Sister-in-law Ye also hurried up to persuade them not to fight. It was one thing to be sarcastic and scolded, but it was another thing for the couple to actually fight.
When the neighbors heard the noise at the door, they all ran out to take a look, and also helped to start a fight.
"Okay, why did the fight start? And the fight came here?"
