Chapter 1107 Salvage

He looked at the scorching sun hanging high in the sky, sighed in his heart, and walked under the sun first.

The others followed him immediately, asking as they walked.

"Since we have to wait for three days, why don't we all stay on the boat and wait for news?"

Ye Yaodong immediately stopped and thought seriously. He was on the boat now. There were 18 people he had invited. Originally, 5 of them were not from his side. After they all took their positions at night, only one was left from their town and stayed on his boat for the time being.

It was agreed that before the result of the matter came out, they would stay on the boat first and work to pay for food and drink.

If there was a turnaround, if they could return to their boat at that time, they would not need to bother him later. If the result was not ideal, they could only be sent to the town when he returned home, and then they would pay another boat fee.

There were 19 people including him, sleeping on the deck, eating, drinking, defecating and urinating on the boat, and it was not good to let the locals point fingers at them. It was acceptable for a short period of two or three days, but I was afraid that the matter would not be resolved so quickly.

He thought for a while and said, "I will find a guesthouse, open two large bunk beds, spend these days first, and wait for the results. Anyway, we can't leave until the results come out."

"We have to spend money to stay in a guesthouse..."

"You can do as you please. If there are not many people on the boat, you can make do with it for a few days. I have a lot of people here, so I'll arrange two large bunk beds. There are so many people, and the people coming and going on the shore are all local fishermen. It's not good to be pointed at by others all the time."

It only costs one or two yuan a day, so he can still accept it after staying for a few days. Food and drink cost more than accommodation, and there are so many mouths to feed. But at least when he ran out, half of the people ran on the boat, and half of the supplies were left, so he didn't need to spend money.

He didn't lose any money on him, and fortunately he earned 10,000 yuan a few days ago, so he had a minimum.

Ah Guang hesitated for a moment and said, "Forget about me. There were originally 10 people, but now there are only 6 left. The cabin on the Harvest is enough for sleeping, so we don't have to lie on the deck."

"Forget about it even if we are few..."

The other people looked at each other and shook their heads.

They didn't make much money, so how could they afford to spend money to stay in a guesthouse? There were also losses on the ship, so there weren't that many people. It was okay to just sit on the deck and sleep at night.

Ye Yaodong didn't say anything. They could sleep on the boat if they wanted.

"So will you go back first, or wait for me to go together?"

"Let's go back first. The morning is almost over. I guess everyone on the dock is waiting anxiously. Let's go back and report the news first."

"That's fine. Then you go back first. I'll go ask for directions."

After saying that, he walked towards the locals who were sitting in the shade by the roadside. A Guang also trotted after him, "I'll go with you. They go back and report the news first."

"Okay."

Ye Yaodong returned to the dock only half an hour later than them, but when he returned to the dock, he found that most of the boats were missing? There were only a few and his big bunch.

A Guang also found it.

"Why are there so few people on the boat?"

"Go up and ask."

Instantly, he thought, wouldn't the missing fishing boats rush to the trench to salvage them?

When they got on the boat and asked, it was as he thought.

Half of the fishing boats that lost their boats went out to sea to salvage jellyfish. Some of them went there in a hurry after they left, while others watched and waited for a while, and then followed them anxiously after they saw that they had not returned for a long time.

Some of them also hurried to go there after Xiao Xiao A Zheng and his friends came back and knew that they had contacted the director of the Coast Guard Bureau for help.

"Damn it... you are such a dog..."

"We were also very anxious. We saw them all running away, but you didn't come back, so we didn't dare to move."

"You are really good at picking up leaks. After both sides were hurt, we ran around to solve the problem, while they ran to pick up the bargain. It's really good." Ye Yaodong laughed in anger.

The boatmen on the boat also cursed them, saying that they were too immoral.

"This matter has not been resolved yet, and we dare not guarantee that they can be released. You are all afraid of making less money. It's okay to lose people, but not money?" A Guang also cursed across a boat.

Some people also mocked: "It's not you who are caught. You come here to make money. It's such a good opportunity. It's a waste not to make money."

A Zheng shouted at them: "Let's go quickly. We can't let those bastards get away with it. They took advantage of us to make a phone call to solve the problem and left us and sneaked out to salvage."

Xiao Xiao also shouted while eating with a bowl in hand: "Yes, let's catch up quickly. Three fish ran away at the beginning, and then four or five more ran away. Half an hour ago, we came back and told the results, and five or six more ran away. Now we are the only ones left. Let's go quickly. We can't let them get away with it."

"Go, go, go..."

Ye Yaodong also immediately told others to prepare to leave the shore, and he also climbed into the cockpit.

Anyway, now is the stage of waiting for the result. Since we have already asked for help, as I just said, it is easier with fewer people, so his father is generally fine. He only needs to protect his father and his boatman, and let others who deserve to be humiliated be humiliated.

The remaining boats beside him also started to move immediately, so as not to let others get away with it.

This prefecture-level city is farther away from the trench, and they drove out in a hurry, and it took them two hours to get there.

When they arrived, the boats in their village were indeed catching fish, as if they had forgotten the embarrassment of last night. They were all smiling and sweating profusely.

There were also a few local boats in it. During the gunfight yesterday, some of them ran fast and escaped, so they could run out to salvage today.

Looking at the boats full of various buckets, it is easy to imagine that they missed half a day and these local boats got away with it.

There are more jellyfish today than in the past few days. A large number of them are floating on the sea, but there are only a dozen boats there to salvage them. This time, there are no more monks and less porridge.

When the local fishing boats saw so many of their boats coming at once, and the iconic large ships Fengshou and Dongsheng also appeared, they were immediately a little panicked.

They had just fought fiercely yesterday, and now there are so many foreign ships. There are only a few local boats now, and they are all scared.

And their boats are also a bit evil, and they squeeze next to the local fishing boats to grab the goods, just to make them uncomfortable.

The local fishing boats know that they all have guns and are now at a disadvantage, so they dare not confront them head-on. In addition, after this round of salvage, the harvest on the boat is also full. After one boat ran away in advance, the other fishing boats all wanted to leave immediately.

In order to avoid the same fight as yesterday, no one will get anything, not to mention that they have few people and few boats today, and they will be the only ones who will suffer.

As soon as Ye Yaodong arrived, he was busy assigning other people to small boats. He had no time to care about the fishing boats that had run away. Others had long been attracted by the jellyfish, and they were too late to salvage, let alone the locals.

Now there are only 19 people left on his boat, and he is seriously short of manpower. Only one experienced person can be assigned to each small boat. Most of the remaining 9 people have little experience. Four rowed to 002 and five stayed on Dongsheng.

Everyone was busy grabbing jellyfish on the sea.

I have been here for so many days, but I didn’t expect that it was only after a big battle that I could start fishing in large quantities with peace of mind.

Those who were still shouting that the facts were inconsistent with the rumors two days ago, now they are excited after seeing the jellyfish on the entire sea. If it hadn’t happened yesterday, they would probably be happier.

After making money, on the way back, some fishing boats came over and said with a smile: "There are really so many, there should be more tomorrow, right? It's a bargain for us..."

Ye Yaodong mocked: "It's a bargain for you, after they fought and killed all of them, I ran around for you to solve the problem, you are happy here, and you make money comfortably."

The other party was embarrassed, "Hehe... Hehe... Isn't it better to wait there? Save a little time, and you will know when you go back."

After saying that, he immediately ran away, and he was too embarrassed to stay any longer.

After Ye Yaodong glanced at it with disdain, he went to watch the small boats moving goods.

The trouble with his side compared to other fishing boats is that when he arrives at the place, he has to assign people to the small boats and let the small boats row into the jellyfish pile to salvage the jellyfish.

Then, if they want to go back now, they have to wait for the small boats to come from all directions, move the goods to the big ship, and then tie the fishing boats to the back of the big ship and wait to be towed back together.

Although it is a bit troublesome, the harvest is also gratifying. The goods that emerged from the trench today are enough for their dozen boats to salvage. If there are two or three times more fishing boats, it is estimated that they can barely catch enough.

By tomorrow, the number of jellyfish will probably double again, and it is almost the peak season.

After the harvest, A Guang drove the Harvest back first. He also had to contact the factory to come to the city for harvest.

The other boats were almost gone, and the Dongsheng was the last one to fall behind, but the Dongsheng was fast, and it overtook other fishing boats while driving, and even overtook them, and arrived at the dock before dark.

"We should come early tomorrow morning. We can't let the locals and other boats get away with it. Damn it..."

"They are all worthless. Fortunately, we have more boats and we didn't suffer any loss..."

"It's just that there are too few people. The small boats can't kill them all. We have to fish and kill them at the same time. We're at a big loss..."

"When we sell them later, let's see how much other boats sold for. There were three boats that followed Adong. As soon as Adong left, they immediately went out to sea. Their families didn't want them anymore..."

"It's just right for them to earn more money to redeem people..."

Everyone on the deck cursed.

Ye Yaodong was also thinking about the problem of the small number of people. 15 people from the town sneaked into them yesterday, but there was only one on his boat. So when he was waiting on the shore to sell jellyfish, he hooked the man from the town's neck to the corner and talked.

He said it very nicely. All the boatmen on the boat were paid. Everyone was doing the same work. It made no sense that the man should not be paid, so he decided to pay him the same salary as the other boatmen on the boat.

As long as they went out to sea to salvage jellyfish, they would get paid. If they returned, they would be sent to the town for free.

Of course, if they did not salvage jellyfish, they would not get paid, but they would be provided with food and lodging. They had originally mixed into the team. Without everyone's shelter, they would have nowhere to go.

The man was also very happy. Originally, after such an incident, he did not expect to earn money to go home. He just wanted to work for free, get food and lodging, and return home safely.

After all, everyone said that the other people in the same group would either be shot or sentenced to 10 or 20 years in prison. Compared with the others, he was already very lucky to be able to return safely.

Now that he can still earn the same salary, it is really a pie in the sky.

Moreover, he had seen the situation in the morning. All the people in their village had to rely on Ye Yaodong to find connections and pray for others to get out. It was much better to follow him than to follow others or follow the original boat.

Ye Yaodong also expressed his worries appropriately, saying that he was seriously short of manpower now.

The man immediately patted his chest and promised that he would pull other familiar people to work for him. As long as they could get the same treatment, others would definitely come without saying anything.

Ye Yaodong patted his shoulder with satisfaction. It seemed that the problem of insufficient manpower was solved immediately.

The remaining people in the town just filled his insufficient manpower.

The man was very active. When everyone was selling goods, he persuaded all the 15 people who had sneaked in from their town, and all of them came to Ye Yaodong's boat together.

When he learned that Ye Yaodong had booked two more large bunk beds in the guesthouse, he was even more happy that his decision was right.

After selling the goods, Ye Yaodong returned to the ship with a bag of money. As a result, people from other ships came to him and said that he had taken all the people from the town over, and they were short of people working on their own ships.

Originally, a small number of people were missing yesterday, and the locals who sneaked in were not enough to make up for the missing people. Fortunately, these locals did not dare to ask for wages, but only wanted to stay on the ship to work to pay for meals and be sent home.

Now that they have been poached by him, there are fewer people working on other ships, and everyone is very dissatisfied.

Ye Yaodong snorted in his heart. He only allowed them to stab him in the back, right?

He smiled and crossed his arms over his chest, "They wanted to work on my ship, not me who went to find them. If you are short of people, you should also pay them a salary and ask them if they are willing to stay on your ship."

"It was agreed that they would work for us to pay for their meals..."

"But they don't want to."

"If you don't pay them..."

"It is reasonable to pay them for work. All the workers on my ship are paid. No one works for free. Now that we are short of manpower, I have to pay them since they are not hired by me and are also working for me to earn money. They also spread the word among themselves before they came to work for me. I have no reason not to accept it because I am also short of people."

Everyone was speechless, but they were reluctant to pay them. They had agreed not to pay any money, but suddenly they had to pay a lot of money. Everyone felt disappointed.

After all, the people in their village were not sure whether they would be released directly. If they were released, they would have more manpower immediately.

If they are not released, there will be some trouble when they return, and they will probably have to pay compensation.

"What if we don't have enough people..."

"Yes, we didn't have enough people in the first place, and now they are all going to you..."

"You can also pay a high price to dig it back at night..."

After Ye Yaodong said this, he turned around and went to the cabin. He was too lazy to listen to their whining. He was now fed up with this group of people and just wanted to get through this period of fishing and get his father out.

After locking the money in the iron box under the bed as usual, he thought about the personnel arrangement for the night.

When he returned to the deck, everyone else had gone back to their own boats.

They were reluctant to spend the money, but they thought they should be able to make do.

Ye Yaodong told everyone about the sleeping arrangement at night. There were a total of 18+15 people at present, and there were 6 beds on the boat. He planned to sleep in the cabin at night, with a few familiar and trusted boatmen.

Anyway, there are beds to lie on. They have to get up and set off in the early morning when it is still dark and the dock is the noisiest. It doesn't matter.

Then he took the remaining 27 people to the guesthouse to sleep on a large bunk bed after dinner. A large bunk bed can sleep more than a dozen people horizontally. It can barely fit.

And the jellyfish blood left over today will be boiled on the boat, dried on the boat overnight, and can be collected after being exposed to the sun for half a day tomorrow. It's not a big problem.

Even so many people are also a problem. They have to take turns to eat and keep cooking. There is no other way. There has been no news from there in the past few days, so this is the only arrangement for the time being.

When he knows for sure that his father can be released and they can continue to fish here, he will rent a house again.

We don't know what the situation is yet, so we have to keep everything simple.

All the staff members listened to his arrangements, and no one had any objections.

After Ye Yaodong and the other two groups finished their meals, he immediately took them to the guesthouse and told them to come to the dock at 3 a.m., and then he left them alone.

It was difficult to manage such a large group of people, and they also had to arrange food and drink, which was the most tedious thing.

After finishing the meal and instructing the people on the boat to do all the work, it was already 9 o'clock in the evening, and he also left the boat from the shore and drove it to the middle of the sea to dock.

There were so many jellyfish blood on the boat, and he was worried about being next to a bunch of fishing boats. Although he went late today, the amount of fishing was more than everyone else, two or three times that of some people.

After all, there were two large and ten small boats, 12 boats. The number of small boats was a little less due to lack of manpower, but who made him have so many boats, and they were still stronger than people when gathered together.

Today, with so many boats, a total of 667.36 yuan was sold. More than 1/3 of the amount was from Dongsheng, and the small wooden boats also accounted for 1/3, while the trawlers accounted for the smallest amount.

When the goods were loaded onto the boat, he specially asked people to stack them separately so that he could see the quantity at a glance.

The jellyfish blood he received could also be sold for two or three hundred yuan.

When other fishing boats were selling goods, he also watched. The boat that went there in the morning sold more than 300 yuan, and the one that went a step later also sold two or three hundred yuan.

Only the fishing boat that went with him later sold a little less, only one or two hundred yuan.

When Ye Yaodong lay on his bed, he also emptied his mind and recalled today's harvest.

It was already past 2 o'clock in the afternoon when he arrived there, and the actual fishing time was only more than three hours. Because he had many boats, the harvest in these few hours was equivalent to the harvest of the fishing boats for a whole day last year.

Thinking that there will be more fish to be caught tomorrow and there will be fewer fishing boats, he is a little excited now, but when he thinks that his father has not come out yet, his enthusiasm is extinguished.

Now he can only try to salvage for two more days while no other fishing boats know about that place, but it will probably spread more widely later...

The locals who ran away early today will definitely not watch the trench being occupied by them. They will definitely tell each other and call all the boats they know in the surrounding villages to continue fishing.

I just don’t know if the subsequent development will evolve into what happened yesterday evening.

Moreover, I don’t know if these boats will report to the Public Security Bureau when they go back, saying that their fishing boats are still there.

However, if they want to go out to catch them, they may have to report to the Coast Guard Bureau to go out. With Zeng Weimin around, they probably won’t go out to catch them specifically, and they should let them go.

He put his hands behind his head and thought about it, but he didn't come up with a particularly good idea. He could only take it one step at a time and deal with it as it came up. Anyway, they had more boats now.

Now they just hoped to make more money in the next few days. There would be more local fishing boats later. At worst, they could just go to the sea to fish. After a few days, there would probably be more branches on the sea.

Money is hard to make...

Thinking about this and that, he fell asleep with the sound of waves and snoring in his ears.

In the early morning of the next day, he woke up immediately after hearing the roar of a machine passing by his ears, and there were rustling sounds from other beds.

He shone the flashlight on his watch. It was just after 3 o'clock. He immediately sat up and knocked on the board, "Get up."

He immediately went to wash up, and then looked at the surrounding sea. There were a bunch of flashlights shining everywhere, and there were no ships out to sea on the sea.

He immediately went to the cockpit and drove the boat back to the shore. The twenty or so people who stayed at the guesthouse yesterday were already waiting on the shore. When they saw his boat docked, they immediately boarded the boat.

The other fishing boats were also busy there. Most of them got up after hearing the noise on the shore. Some of them were anxious and had already driven away. After all, the dock was farther away from the trench and the delay on the road was longer.

After picking up the people, Ye Yaodong ignored the others and drove away directly. The boatmen on their boat also prepared breakfast in an orderly manner.

One pot after another of porridge was cooked continuously. Two pots were cooked in advance last night, for fear that breakfast would not be cooked in time and not enough to eat.

When they arrived at the place, they just had a full meal. The pot was not idle. After cooking breakfast, they immediately arranged to cook lunch. After all, there were many people, so they had to cook continuously. They could only have a bite to eat when the time came.

The sky was bright, and Ye Yaodong saw that the locals who were more active than them had already started fishing there. The number of these local fishing boats was twice as many as yesterday, and they had caught up with them.

However, it was early in the morning, and the number of jellyfish floating up was not large. Fortunately, their boats were still behind, a little far away, and had not arrived yet.

After changing to the dock of the prefecture-level city, they had to spend twice as much time on the road as before, but there was nothing they could do about it.

When he arrived, he immediately asked them to find their own companions and go to the small boats in pairs. He assigned the remaining 5 people to the trawler and asked them to remember today's arrangements. If there were people coming to fish in the next few days, they could just get on the boat by themselves.

He left 8 people on the Dongsheng, 4 split, 4 stood on both sides to salvage, and occasionally one person could be freed to cook, just right.

And those local fishing boats saw that he was the only one with a bunch of small boats coming, and thought he was easy to bully. They wanted to copy the scene of them being bullied yesterday, and deliberately surrounded him and deliberately robbed his goods.

He snorted coldly, raised the gun that had been placed beside him, gestured at them, and said nothing.

There were obviously not so many boats yesterday, but today there were 17 or 18, maybe those boats yesterday were really called from other places.

His move immediately made them wary, and they didn't dare to rob, for fear that it would turn into a gunfight on the sea the day before yesterday.

The locals saw the outcome of the accident the day before yesterday. No one got any good results. They were all arrested.

But they were unwilling to let these hateful outsiders rob their local resources. Who didn't have a gun?

Some of their boats had learned the lessons of the previous few days and yesterday, and were well prepared. Those who had guns took out their guns and pointed them at them.

At this time, the large fleet of fishing boats behind them also came over one after another. Everyone looked over and looked at the fishing boats coming from a distance.

It took only a moment for them to get closer from far away.

The fishing boats that came over saw that they were confronting each other, and they all drove to the side of the Dongsheng. Those who had guns also took out their guns and pointed them at them.

When there is an enemy, of course, they will unite against the enemy.

The two sides did not speak at first. When the fishing boats on both sides seemed to be evenly matched, they whispered to each other.

After seeing that all his fishing boats had arrived, Ye Yaodong felt much more at ease and took off his hat.

The boatmen on the boat followed his example and took off their hats.

The eyes of the people on the opposite fishing boat widened immediately.

"So many bald heads... what's going on..."

"Ah, the ones on the boat over there are also bald heads..."

"Over there... there... they are all... damn... what kind of people are these..."

"No wonder they are so arrogant and dare to come to our territory to salvage... So... have they all committed crimes? No wonder they are so fierce and all carry guns..."

"Fuck, these outsiders are really so bad... No wonder my cousin asked me to carry a gun today..."

"Yesterday I heard someone say that they are all bald heads and were released from prison. I didn't believe it. How could there be so many of them..."

"What should I do..."

The discussions on the opposite side were blown by the sea breeze and blew into the ears of everyone on the Dongsheng. Everyone pretended to be fierce on their faces, intending to confirm their guesses.

Some people also whispered: "Scare them to death, there are more ships coming today than yesterday, they have caught up with us..."

"I was scared to death just now, now it's their turn to scare them to death..."

"Everyone, put on a more appropriate expression..."
