Chapter 1047: Settlement (10,000 Words, Monthly Vote +21)

Father Ye is quite obedient now.

He usually does whatever he is asked to do, and there is no time to reprimand others, but he does make people uncomfortable every day.

I don’t know if Dongzi has become more successful, and then everyone feels that this old guy is no longer of much use, haha. It may also be that Dongzi is becoming more and more organized, making more and more money, and does not give people anything. Opportunity for reprimand.

They sailed the fishing boat around the island and immediately started dropping tree branches.

After placing them evenly in the area reserved for them, Ye Yaodong sailed towards Azhengna, wanting to see how the squids had attached their eggs today.

"It's not much. It's so troublesome to collect. Bundles of branches are hooked up with fishing nets, but there aren't many. It's a waste of time."

"That's still early."

"Well, I have to wait until tomorrow to have a look. We have to continue trawling now."

"We are going back too. We have collected all the long lines, refilled the bait, and put all the branches into the sea. It seems that there is no more activity."

Azheng's face was full of envy, "You are so comfortable here. You don't need to go out at night. You only need to go out in the morning and work for a long time, and then go back at noon."

"Isn't it that the flood season has not yet completely arrived? It is a waste of time to stay here. If we wait a few days later, we will still have to work until the evening before we can go back."

"Then I'll leave first."

"go Go."

Ye Yaodong also drove the boat and was about to go back, but when he turned his head, he saw his father squatting there sorting the fish, without cooking the rice he promised.

"We've thrown away the branches, why don't you cook?"

"Aren't we going back soon? I think I can just go home and eat, so as to save myself the trouble. It's only one or two o'clock when I get home anyway."

"Make excuses for yourself to be lazy."

"Let's pick these goods on the way back. It won't waste time when we get to the shore. We can weigh them right away. There are also few fishing boats going back at this time. No need to queue or wait. Eating at home is not as good as at sea. Eat well."

Ye Yaodong didn't say anything and asked him to cook. Of course he didn't want to cook either.

It takes about an hour to drive back from here offshore. When we dock, there are no boats on the shore, only a few small wooden boats.

When Ah Cai saw his boat coming back, he was very happy to welcome him, "Good luck. How was the harvest today?"

"It's okay. There is a small golden gun, which weighs about thirty or forty pounds. Let's see how much it costs. There is also a swallowtail spot, blue. Come over and help pick up the goods."

"Okay, you got a good harvest. You went out in the morning and came back in the afternoon, and you got a pretty good harvest."

"It's just so-so. If the harvest is not good, how can we make ends meet? Now we have a large family and a large group of people. I don't know if what I earn in one day is enough to pay for so many people in one day."

"That's true. You are getting bigger and bigger now, and you have more and more people in your hands. Of course, the wages paid out are more and more, but you will definitely earn more, so don't call it poor."

"Whose employees sit at home with their feet up and chatting, while the boss goes out to earn money to pay them wages, isn't it me?"

Ah Cai was instantly happy, "Hey, don't tell me, it's true, the workers from the big ships your family hired have been chatting at home with their feet up for the past two days, bragging about fighting pirates. There is also the story of catching more than 100,000 catties of fish in one net. No one wants to hear the story, and they are still bragging with pride."

"Yeah, they are there comfortably with their feet up, chatting and basking in the sun, while I am here working hard to earn money to pay them wages. Who has a boss like me? There is no boss who is less like a boss than me. ”

"That's true. It's quite comfortable working for you."

"So the price should be higher for me, otherwise I won't be able to pay wages."

"Okay, okay..."

He was talking nonsense here and complained a lot. Unexpectedly, in the afternoon, word spread in the village that he was too kind to his boatmen. He let the boatmen rest at home and went to sea to earn money to pay them wages.

Moreover, it is said that he will give out red envelopes whenever he finds a big product online. This year’s salary has increased by 5 yuan, which makes everyone envious.

Some people are very old, in their 50s, and they still come to Ye’s father and ask if they are still lacking people. It’s really disgusting to hear ~

Not only men want to work as boatmen on their boats, but women also want to work.

A few scattered women came to Ye Mu and asked when a large number of people would be needed and when the ship would be repaired. The emperor was not in a hurry, but the eunuch was in a hurry.

Ye Yaodong took the goods list and then followed his father home. In just half a day in the morning, they sold more than 80 yuan, all because the little golden gun and the swallowtail spot were the most valuable, accounting for 1/3.

After returning home and handing the inventory to Ah Qing, he ate a simple bowl of noodles and then hurried to the village committee to make a call to the shipyard.

Let them seize the time to repair the fishing boat he captured as soon as possible. Repair the fishing boat first, and give them five days to repair it. It doesn't matter if the delivery dates of other boats are pushed back later.

The shipyard also agreed, and Ye Yaodong was relieved.

It just so happened that the boatmen he hired were all sitting at home with their feet up and gossiping. After the boat was repaired, he and his father would take one boatman to fish for squid.

However, more branches had to be cut, tied up in advance and put there for later use, so that they could be put to use as soon as the ship came back.

After paying the phone bill, he went back and told the boys who were watching the workshop to cut the branches. As for the fact that no one was watching the workshop, of course it was him who did it. Anyway, he had nothing to do in the afternoon, so he was free, and he just happened to move a tree. Sit on a stool at the gate and enjoy the sun.

His father didn't do anything in the afternoon, so he went to the mountains again. He was very concerned about repairing the tomb, and he couldn't wait to do it himself.

In the spring afternoon, the sun is warm and the spring breeze is blowing on the face. It is easy to make people feel sleepy. In addition, he got up a little early this morning and was so busy that he is now sitting comfortably. He is indeed a little tired. Sleepy.

Ye Yaodong laid a wooden stool horizontally on the ground, put his feet up on it, took off his sweater and covered his face, and fell asleep directly at the door.

Until the sun sets in the west, some fishermen who fish on small wooden boats along the coast rush back to finish their work when the sun goes down. They can also make extra meals for their families. Everyone who passes by the door of the workshop can see him sleeping soundly. .

At the same time, he was also awakened by the voices of the fishermen who had been passing by, and his body felt a little chilly. The sun was almost setting, and the temperature dropped sharply. It did not live up to the warmth of the sun at noon, leaving only a chill. .

He rubbed his sleepy eyes and hurriedly put his clothes back on, when a voice came to his ears.

"Dongzi, I'll go to your place to settle the account after dinner later."

He turned around and saw that it was Brother Asheng.

"Okay, then I'll go to Ah Cai's place later to collect the money. It happens to be the end of the month."

Ye Yaosheng rubbed his hands in embarrassment and said with a smile: "The family doesn't have much money anymore. All the money earned last month was used to pay off debts and advance this month's gas expenses. My wife can't work now either. Calculating accounts can also help me relax a little, and I can also have money to buy some pieces of cloth to make two spring clothes for her and the two children."

"Yeah, that's right. The season has just changed in spring. The whole family has to make two clothes and wear them more nicely to avoid people saying that you treated your newly married wife and children badly."

The orders for his sales are all in Ah Qing's hands, and he just waits for the monthly settlement before he can get the money. Every trip to sea costs a lot of gas, and he has to advance it himself.

"Today's cargo list is in Ah Da's hands. He is still at the dock waiting for your cousin's ship to come back."

"Okay, it just so happens that the flood season for squid is approaching these days, so it would be good to settle the accounts in advance. Then you can come over after dinner, and I will ask my cousin to come over and settle the accounts."

"OK."

After Ye Yaosheng agreed, he pushed his own cart home with brisk steps.

Ye Yaodong turned his head and looked at the open space around him. The twin Ah Xiao was sitting in the corner tying branches. He didn't know when he came back. He had a really comfortable sleep this time.

"Just watch here. If you see my eldest cousin coming back and passing by later, tell him to come to my house to settle accounts after dinner."

"Okay Brother Dong, I will remember it."

He stretched before going home. When he was standing at the door, he went to the door of his eldest brother and second brother's house to look around. When he saw that no one came back, he told his eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law.

Since we have to settle accounts, let's settle the accounts of several ships together and settle all the accounts for this month.

After returning home, I also talked to Ah Qing.

She was sitting in front of the stove cooking. When she heard this, she wiped her hands and said, "Then I have to sort out the inventory in advance."

"There's no need to rush, just cook your meal first, and then take it out and do the calculations after you finish the meal. It's okay for Ah Cai to settle the bill later. Anyway, I have the bill of goods in hand, so I'll give it to them first according to the price of the bill. Forget it, let’s advance the bills that haven’t been settled in the past two days.”

"That's okay. Anyway, this account is very simple. Calculate it in half. Will the eldest brother and the second brother also do the calculation today?"

"Well, let's put it all together today."

"The eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law have no objection. What didn't you say?"

"What did you say? But what the heck, everyone else can forget it today. Are they the only ones who don't want it? No, I won't tell the eldest and second brothers directly?"

Just now, his elder sister-in-law and second sister-in-law were really not happy, and said that it was only a few days apart, and it would be the same after the 30th.

Because they each kept the cargo bills of their two families, and only waited for the settlement at the end of the month. Then they took out the cargo bills of the two ships that month, and then divided the bills into three parts, which was equivalent to each of them vomiting. 1/3 of the money was given to him.

That’s why I’m not willing to settle the bill in advance.

When he received the money, he was very happy and wished he could get it into his pocket early. But when he settled the accounts and gave the money, he was not so happy. Most people were like this, and he didn't care.

"Well, let's have dinner early tonight, since you and dad are back anyway."

Father Ye didn't come back slowly until the sun went down and all the workers had finished their work. As soon as he came back, he said it was a pity for Ye Yaofan.

"You feel sorry for him so much, do you want to help him pay back all the money? There is nothing to feel bad about. Everyone has lost thousands of their hard-earned money. If you want to feel bad, you should feel bad that your son has suffered a big loss."

"That's different. This is also a nephew. How can we expect others to be bad?"

"Maybe he is also full of bad intentions. He is pretending to be honest. He knows people and faces but not their hearts. Who knows for sure. Isn't that what Dongzi's friend is like? He pretends to be honest, but the result is worse and more insidious than anyone else."

"Huh? Mom, he still can't get out of bed? His ex-wife even told Uncle Pei, but there's no reaction?"

"I don't know then. It seems that while he is still lying down, his wife comes to the door of Lao Wang's house every day to scold him. She also makes irresponsible remarks in the village, scolding his ex-wife for being inappropriate, saying that they might have hooked up early, so Why did you simply get a divorce, and don’t want the child anymore? I don’t know how many men I stole from behind someone else’s back, and even the old man wanted to... uh... anyway, the scolding was ugly. "

When Mother Ye was talking about how happy she was, she forgot that the child was still there, and almost said other unflattering words.

"You know so clearly."

"I know exactly where it is. It's spread throughout the whole village. Only you guys at sea don't hear that much."

"I don't know if A Guang will be back in two days, and he hasn't been back for half a month."

"You should come back, right? If nothing else, why would you come back to see the child?"

Pei Yu also cried loudly at this time, "I want daddy, mother~mother~"

Everyone was shocked for a moment, and Mother Ye quickly hugged the child, held it on her lap and coaxed her, while glaring at Ye Yaodong a few more times.

Lin Xiuqing also glared at him complainingly, "Why are you calling him daddy in front of the child? You don't have to remind the child that he wants to kiss his father and mother."

"I was wrong, I was wrong. If I don't say it, don't say it either. If I kiss my father and my mother again, she will cry even louder."

"Stop talking. Hey, it's so pitiful. He's still so young and his biological father and mother are not around. It's normal for him to think about it." The old lady also stepped forward and touched the child's head, "Don't cry anymore, don't cry anymore." , your mother will be back soon."

Ye Xiaoxi didn't know why she was crying. He raised his head and looked left and right in the room, and then ran to Lin Xiuqing's feet and hugged her thigh.

"Let's all eat. Seeing how sad she is, feed her some food quickly. If she has something to eat, she won't think about it and won't cry anymore." Father Ye also spoke up.

The atmosphere of chatting and gossiping in the room was suddenly ruined by Pei Yu. After that, no one talked about it anymore, only fishing boats and the flood season were discussed.

Not long after the meal, before it got dark, my eldest cousin and Brother Asheng came over together.

Lin Xiuqing also took out the cargo manifest that had been prepared long ago. The two of them sailed two ships, and of course the cargo manifests were also in two separate copies.

Ah Cai also had to settle accounts himself, so he also wrote down his name on every bill of goods. Those who had already calculated the money would also have the payee’s name signed on the bill. Those who couldn’t write their own names would have their fingerprints printed. .

Ah Qing held the two people's cargo lists in two folders respectively. There were about ten sheets in each dozen.

"One for each person. The manifests for this month's sea voyages are all here. There are dates on them. You should check first to see if they are correct. If they match the number of sea voyages you have made this month, don't miss them."

"Okay, I'll remember the number of times I went to sea, one at a time, just count how many."

The two of them each took one with their own names on it and counted it.

Lin Xiuqing was preparing with a calculator in her hand. When there was no problem, she would calculate immediately. After calculating, she would give them the money directly. This was also the case last month.

The rest of the people in the house had already left after dinner, and the children had already run out to play. The old lady also went out to look at the children, so the four of them settled accounts here.

After the two counted the orders and there was no problem, Lin Xiuqing counted the orders while changing the orders, and then pressed the calculator at the same time.

"My eldest cousin went to sea for 10 days this month and earned a total of 555 yuan, 6 cents and 6 cents. Half of it per person is 277 yuan, 8 cents and 3 cents for you."

After finishing speaking, she wrote down the amount on the list, and then pressed it again. When there was no problem, she put it aside and counted it as Brother Asheng's.

"Brother Ah Sheng seems to have broken down the ship. It took two days to repair it, right? There are only 8 orders."

"right."

"You may have better luck than your older cousin. It's not much less than him. The total here is 496 yuan, 2 cents and 8 cents, and half of it per person is 248 yuan, 1 cents and 4 cents."

Brother Asheng rubbed his hands happily, "That's pretty good luck. After deducting more than 100 yuan for gas and hiring wages, you can still earn dozens of yuan."

The eldest cousin was also cheerful, "Then I'll work two more days than you. After deducting gas expenses, I won't earn as much as you."

"Good luck. Who can say for sure about luck? Maybe you will have better luck next month. It's all about luck at sea."

"No problem, let Ah Qing get the money for you."

"No problem, no problem..."

"Okay, okay..."

The two said in succession.

"Last month, each of you got more than ten yuan, but this month you earned less."

"It's almost the cuttlefish season in the past two days, and we will be able to earn more next month."

"right."

Ye Yaodong also smiled and pulled out a cigarette for each of them, "Yes, you will earn more next month and you can make a fortune."

"Dongzi... are all here?"

He turned around and saw that his eldest brother, sister-in-law, second brother and sister-in-law had all come in.

"I just finished settling their accounts. It's just right. We'll settle our accounts later."

Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua also chatted with them and asked them how much money they could share this month.

Everyone is in a good mood and has money.

"That's pretty good. If you split it in half, you can earn dozens of dollars after deducting fuel and labor expenses."

"Yes, many people in the village now rely on Dongzi to make a living."

"In the past two days, rumors have spread all over the village that 110,000 kilograms of Plum Tong fish have been caught in Dongzi's net. It has gone viral. If we hadn't rented a big boat, we would have been shameless enough to follow you out to sea to see it."

"There's no need to travel so far away with me. Going out for several days at a time is very risky. Didn't you hear them say you encountered pirates? You drive a trawler and go out at night and come back the same day. You earn no less than them, and you can still take care of them. It’s not that dangerous at home.”

After deducting the share and expenses, it is indeed not much different than what he earns by going to sea. Moreover, you can rest better on the shore and won't be as hard as a boatman.

What's more, the accounts are settled a few days early this month. If it goes online on the 30th, it may be possible to get a little more points.

"Everyone is at risk. Last year, people on Luzhou Island were killed in one fell swoop, and the sea seemed a little calmer. However, recently, due to the squid taking over the island during the flood season, some nearby villages started fighting again."

"This is inevitable. It happens every year. Disputes will happen every time, but it's better than meeting pirates."

At this time, Lin Xiuqing also counted the money and gave it to them.

"You guys came just in time. The calculators have just been released. Should the elder sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law do the calculations by themselves, or should I do the pressing?"

"We'll do the math first, and then you'll do the math again."

"OK."

Both sisters-in-law know how to press it because Ah Qing taught them.

When Ye Yaodong first bought it, he taught Ah Qing. The two sisters-in-law were also very new to this stuff, so they asked her to help teach them.

Then in the past few months, I have borrowed a calculator from time to time to calculate my own accounts. I am very proficient in the calculations and will not question the results.

The two brothers Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua are both very diligent. Ye Yaohua also went to sea for ten days. However, the machinery of Ye's father's boat was always prone to breakage. Ye Yaopeng had it repaired twice this month, and he spent two days less at sea, only eight days.

Sister-in-law Ye also scolded the boat from time to time.

Originally it was nothing, everyone's boats are like this, and it's normal to change them occasionally, but who asked Ye Yaodong to go to the factory a few days ago to drive a boat back, and now it's like poking a hornet's nest.

Sister-in-law Ye has been bad-tempered since the day before yesterday, and she has been urging Ye Yaopeng to scold the factory and make more phone calls.

If the boat they ordered had been handed over early, they wouldn't have been running a broken boat all the time, and they would have been delayed in making money from time to time.

As for her, she stood at the door and scolded Huaihuai. The implicit meaning behind her words was that Ye Yaodong deliberately intercepted their boat in order to catch up with the squid season.

It's no wonder that his sister-in-law thought so, because in order to be lazy, he directly told his eldest brother and second brother to come to 7 to save trouble.

It's really understandable for his sister-in-law to think so.

However, what was actually built was his. When he drove the Dongsheng to the factory for repairs, the ship had already been painted with the color he requested and marked Dongsheng 001.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to get the paint and markings done in just two or three days.

His seven boats were all planned to be engraved with Dongsheng 001~007 from the beginning, and then when the three boats in his hand needed maintenance, he would have them engraved with 008~010.

From 1 to 10, they are all arranged well, ship king Ye Yaodong!

He had heard his sister-in-law scolding her at the door for several days, and he didn't bother to explain. The fact was that he got it before his eldest and second brothers. There was nothing to argue with.

Second Sister-in-law Ye was no less willing to give in. She also believed that her family had been cut off.

Ye Yaohua has also been asking the factory to call and urge the factory to deliver the goods earlier so that they can get the money earlier so that they don't have to form a partnership and have to open someone else's.

Ah Qing has explained it many times, but people, sometimes they only like to think what they think and cannot listen to what others say.

Anyway, it was the shipyard that pressed on him first, and it was not his own fault. He was not in a hurry at first, but this time it was a coincidence. If he wanted to scold her, he would scold her.

The two sisters-in-law were originally like this. When their immediate interests were harmed, of course they would protect themselves. But if they turned around and had the cake, of course they would have to share it. This is a family.

The two took turns pressing the calculator, and after finishing the calculation, they recorded it on the list they brought. Then they handed the list in hand to Lin Xiuqing and asked her to look at the time on the document and check it again.

"No problem, the eldest brother's receipt this month is 520 yuan, 8 cents and 7 cents, and the second brother's receipt this month is 592 yuan, 5 cents and 5 cents. The two add up to 1133.42, and then you guys will add separately this month. How much did you pay for gas?”

"I've been here for eight days and spent 142 yuan on gas."

"I paid an extra 180 yuan here. If I go two extra days, I also pay for two extra days of gas."

"Then the subtraction is 791.42 yuan. After deducting the 54 yuan that each of you hired for the 18 days of labor, divided among three people, each person is 245 yuan and 80 cents." Lin Xiu took a look at the computer after finishing the calculation.

Ye Yaodong specially bought a boat to merge with them. The two brothers originally only had half shares of the boat, so after the three of them merged, they did not calculate wages and shared the net profit equally.

In fact, the amount shared is not much more than that of the eldest cousin and the others. Although it is divided equally between two boats and three people, the fuel and wages are counted as public money. Although the eldest cousin and Brother Asheng only share half of one boat, They also have to bear the cost of gas.

To be honest, for Ye Yaodong, leasing the boat to others is no different from using it to partner with his brothers, but it can increase his brothers' income.

It is a benefit to the two brothers. Anyway, they still go to sea together and each controls a boat, but the income they can increase is nearly half, which can be regarded as helping the two brothers.

"I settled the accounts in advance this month. I also thought that the squid flood season will come next. You will definitely have to go to sea with me. We don't have time to settle the accounts, so I might as well follow along at night and settle the accounts early."

Afraid that they would feel uncomfortable, Ah Qing also explained.

The two sisters-in-law were also satisfied with the amount. After all, although the share shared by the eldest cousin and Brother Asheng was a little less, they still had to pay for the fuel themselves. The fuel money for their fishing boat was a huge expense.

"The numbers are right."

"It's better to forget it earlier. We will probably go to sea tonight."

Lin Xiuqing was surprised, "I'll go out to sea tonight. Isn't it said that the flood season has just arrived? There is not much quantity yet."

"Let's go out and have a look first. We won't take the children with us for now. Then we go out at night and see how many we can pick up. When the number increases, we can bring the children at home to help in two days."

"Oh, then everyone who goes with you will be considered as wages."

Sister-in-law Ye's face instantly dropped.

If her ship is delivered first and gets it first, there will be no need for three brothers to join forces during this flood season, but three people will have to share it. If her ship is obtained, she will be able to monopolize all the harvest without having to share it with others.

Big loss.

Lin Xiuqing could tell by looking at her sister-in-law's face that she was unhappy again, so she stopped talking and continued to settle accounts.

"Each of the three brothers received 245 yuan and 80 cents. The eldest brother received 520.87 yuan. After deducting the 142 yuan for gas and the 24 yuan for eight days of workers' wages, the net profit was 354.87 yuan. My sister-in-law had to give me 109.07 yuan."

"The second brother sold it for 592.55. After deducting the 180 yuan for gas and the 30 yuan for 10 days as labor wages, the net profit is 382.55. The second sister-in-law has to give me 136.75."

"You can do the math again."

She wrote down the results on the back of the list and asked her two sisters-in-law to calculate the amount to give him.

In fact, it is quite troublesome. If possible, she would also like to take back her fishing boat directly and rent it to others. The calculation will be clearer and simpler, and she can earn more.

After doing some calculations over the past few months, I realized that I could not make as much money by renting the boat to my eldest and second brothers as I did from leasing it to my eldest cousin and Asheng. The difference would be dozens of dollars every month.

Just like before, the eldest cousin got 277, and Brother Asheng got a little less, 248.

If you combine with the eldest brother and the second brother, you will only get 245 points. This is the case where the eldest brother and the second brother gain more.

I really didn't take advantage of them at all.

However, they are all brothers. It is impossible to bypass them and rent to others first. My brothers must be given priority. If they lose a little, they will lose a little. Fortunately, their family is not short of this little money, otherwise, there will be something to say.

Moreover, when the three brothers' partnership settles accounts every month, the eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law always feel that her family has taken advantage of it. Without going to sea, they can share so much with just one boat. The men in their family have worked hard to get so much.

It wasn't until the Dongsheng came back two years ago, and rented the two boats to her eldest cousin and Brother Asheng respectively after the year, and even called them over last month to settle accounts, that they knew that her boat was rented to Others can earn more than the three brothers can make in partnership.

It took the two sisters-in-law to stop their daily gossip, otherwise they would always think that her family was taking advantage of them, which was very tiring to hear.

After receiving the actual data from last month, the two of them were completely speechless and realized that it was them who was benefiting.

The three brothers all live together, and there will inevitably be friction in daily life. The brothers are very close and there will be no barriers, but it is hard to tell the sisters-in-law. Everyone has their own little one, and women are very good at calculating and talking about love. explain.

Lin Xiuqing was already prepared. The two of them would not stop until their boat was handed over to their hands, and they might talk about it again from time to time in the future.

It was really troublesome, and she was starting to get upset just watching them do the math.

Looking back at Ye Yaodong, he actually poured a cup of hot tea for everyone, held it there and drank it slowly, leisurely and without any worries, just waiting there to pay.

In fact, it is true. He spends a lot of time at sea, and when he is at home, he does not have any friction with his sister-in-law. His two sisters-in-law are always very polite to him now.

Ye Yaodong was drinking tea and calculating how much money he could make from three boats this month, when he saw the depressed look in his wife's hand and raised his eyebrows. He didn't know what she was depressed about.

Still staring at him? ? ?

What's up with him?

He was just sitting here, watching them settle accounts, and did nothing. Why were you glaring at him?

baffling.

Women are really fickle. They may change their attitude from good to bad, and they may change their attitude as soon as they say it. It is obvious that there is nothing that offends her.

What's wrong with having a cup of tea? Are you thirsty and don't want anyone to drink?

The two sisters-in-law took turns counting the numbers twice, and only spoke after they were correct.

"This number is correct."

"Ah Cai still has three bills that haven't been settled yet. How about I wait two days until the end of the month before I give them to you? Haha, I originally agreed to settle the bills at the end of the month, but today I suddenly settled the accounts temporarily..."

Lin Xiuqing's face dropped when she heard Second Sister-in-law Ye's words, "Second Sister-in-law's family can't even get out more than 100 yuan?"

"At least the previous accounts have been collected. Can't you just go to Ah Cai to get the latter accounts later? The accounts have all been settled. Is it necessary to delay them? If you don't delay, you don't need to pay them. Already?"

"Ah Cai won't default on his debts. You can still collect the debts that are due to you. What's the point of advancing a hundred dollars in advance? The goods are all in your hands, and I haven't received a penny. Now we are just settling the accounts three or four days in advance. Is it necessary to delay after everything has been settled?"

"I just settled the account with my eldest cousin, Brother Asheng. We still have a few days to pay for the goods, so we just paid them in advance. After the calculation, we should have settled the bill."

"Originally, I gave the boat to you as a partnership, and the three brothers shared the profit. We have already suffered a loss. We all shared 277 with my eldest cousin. Brother A Sheng also broke down this month, and we only went there for eight days. I even got 248 points, which is more than what I got from partnering with you..."

Lin Xiuqing was already depressed enough just sitting there by herself thinking about their actions, but she was still thinking about defaulting. It was really enough.

If I don't talk about it directly, I really think they have the final say in everything.

Is it because they have bad personalities and care about others that she has to give in to them?

Her anger also rose immediately. Although it was not too bad, her tone was a bit harsh.

Sister-in-law Ye was a little embarrassed after hearing this.

Ye Yaohua also turned to stare at her, "Is your family that poor? You can't afford more than 100 yuan? Go and settle the account first. Can't you go to Ah Cai to settle the account later?"

Second Sister-in-law Ye agreed angrily, "I know, go get it now."

When he turned around and walked out, he muttered a few words softly, "I can't wait for a few days. Is there still a little money left? I originally settled the accounts in advance..."

Sister-in-law Ye walked beside her and pulled her, so she was speechless.

Ye Yaohua also smiled awkwardly and said: "You don't know if you don't compare. Only after comparing do you know that Dongzi has been suffering..."

"It's okay. We are all brothers, not outsiders. We should give priority to brothers no matter what. Earning more or less depends on luck. It's hard to say how much we catch every day. There are times when we catch a lot and sometimes we catch a little. Ah Qing just said it casually."

Ye Yaopeng changed the subject, "I saw that you were tying up branches in your workshop. Didn't you do enough yesterday? When I came back in the evening, I saw that there was quite a lot."

"No, didn't I fight against pirates when I came back a few days ago? I captured two ships, one for each of Uncle Pei, and sent them to the shipyard for repair. I told them to repair the Dongsheng first, and then thought of the Cuttlefish During the flood season, I called them in the afternoon and asked them to repair the captured one first, and put the Dongsheng at the end, so there is no rush."

"Oh, it turns out, that's right. It's almost the flood season, so we must repair the boat first so that we can catch squid more easily."

"Let's see. I don't know when the cultivation will be completed. I can catch up to the best or catch up with the tail."

Ye Yaohua also asked: "After the flood season, will the boat also be rented?"

"If you want, I can't drive so many."

It's still early to catch jellyfish, and he will definitely have new fishing boats delivered by then. The most important thing is that he won't rely on this boat this year. This year, he will rely on 10 small wooden boats!

Then they will be shocked!

"It's quite profitable to have more ships. More than 200 a month is not a lot."

"And Dongzi got another boat for free this time. He may be able to catch up with the flood season and make a lot of money again. His luck is really good." Ye Yaohua's face was filled with envy.

"Dongzi's luck has been very good in the past two years, and he has been making a lot of money every year."

"Yeah, every few months I haven't seen a boat come out. This time, two boats came out. It's so amazing. The whole village combined doesn't have as many boats as you."

Now and everywhere, he still has 6 boats, plus a fresh harvest boat still in the factory, and ten other small wooden boats.

"In this ten miles and eight villages, including the town, no one has more fishing boats than Dongzi..."

The eldest cousin and Brother Asheng had money in their hands and were not in a hurry to leave. They also chatted with them.

Everyone was smiling and complimenting Ye Yaodong, and the atmosphere was restored to harmony, and everyone was beaming.

"How much money can Dongzi earn per month now? It must be several thousand yuan, right?"

"Definitely, Dongzi has more than just ships, it also has several shops."

Everyone pricked up their ears and looked at him diligently, wanting to know how much he could earn in a month.

But can this be said?

Ye Yaodong looked at them with a smile, "There are so many bits and pieces, I can't even count them. I only know that the wages I pay every month are thousands of dollars."

Everyone opened their mouths in surprise, but then they thought it was normal.

He is not only the boatman on the ship, but also the workers in the workshop. He heard that his parents, father-in-law and mother-in-law all have their wages calculated, and they are all paid per head.

"Then...that's true. There are quite a few people working for you."

"Actually, I don't earn a lot. Look at how much I spent, including the money to buy the land and build the wall. I invested thousands of yuan in the fish sauce workshop, but I don't know when I will get my money back. The city Except for one of the shops we rented, the others are still idle and used as warehouses, so money is weighed down there.”

"That's right...the money is all there..."

"That's really a lot of money. If I had known better, I wouldn't have bought so much..."

"Has Ahua's shop been rented out?"

Ye Yaohua smiled and said, "Not yet, let's put it there first. Dongzi said it won't lose money, so it definitely won't. I heard that there are more and more people there, and it will definitely make money in the future."

"real or fake?"

"Listen to Dongzi, you can't be wrong. My eldest brother's shop has been rented for a year, and this year it is said that the lease will be renewed. The rent for one year is more than 500, and the original cost will be more than 1,000 in two years. When it gets busy, then it will be It will pay off in just a few years.”

"It's true! It's really cost-effective. You can get your money back after renting it for a few years. If you rent it again in the future, you'll be able to earn money. It's stable and pretty good."

Ye Yaopeng also said happily: "Yes, the store bought it right. I heard Dongzi's advice. I will definitely make more and more money in the future."

"You three brothers are making more and more money."

"Hahaha, I felt distressed when I bought it, but now I feel like I've made a profit."

"Isn't it profitable... more than 500 a year, more than 5,000 in 10 years..."

Just when everyone was talking about the excitement, Sister-in-law Ye and Sister-in-law Ye also took the money.

Lin Xiuqing took the money they handed over and counted it once. After making sure it was correct, she nodded and smiled again on her face.

"It's estimated that it will be next month. You will have your own ship. Then you won't have to settle accounts so troublesomely. You can just settle your own accounts."

"Um."

When Sister-in-law Ye entered the yard, she also heard about the lease renewal of the shop. She didn't talk so much, and she expected her elder brother to rent it for a few more years.

In this year alone, her family earned 1,000 yuan more than the second child's family.
