Chapter 1130 The Truth?

At night, it was about two o'clock in the morning, and Ye Yaodong opened his eyes and woke up automatically.

It had been a while since he had gotten up so early, but as long as he was thinking about something, he could get up immediately. In addition, he had taken a nap during the day, so he was full of energy at night.

He got up and put on his clothes rustlingly. Lin Xiuqing said a few words of advice in a daze and then went back to sleep.

There was already a lot of light from the flashlight outside the dock, with a shaking halo. When he went out, A Guang's people had not arrived yet, but they were already moving things.

He also moved with them, and then followed the boat to the big ship.

After a while, when everything was ready, the fishing boats on the shore were almost gone, and the Harvest started to move. Ye Yaodong and A Guang stood on the deck to enjoy the breeze and chat.

Ye Yaodong actually felt that A Guang had too many things to do, and he went to the provincial capital to inquire about it. It was so troublesome. In this era of inconvenient transportation, let alone going to the provincial capital, everyone felt that going to the county town was too far.

If you like someone, just confirm it directly, ask someone to explain the family background, and write an application report. Originally, the ancestors of soldiers have to be reviewed, so this is completely unnecessary.

"Did Captain Chen say when the lighthouse would be built?"

"I don't know. I was not at home at the time. But my father heard from Aunt Ma that there was a chance and Yingqiu would be satisfied, so he wanted to find out about the family situation and then make a decision, so as not to find out that the family situation is complicated after marriage."

"It doesn't matter much. He is a soldier anyway and is not at home. No matter how complicated the family situation is, he doesn't have to go back to face it."

"Then you still have to go and see it, otherwise you don't know where your family is."

"Aren't you afraid that you will make a trip and then come back and the other party doesn't have this idea and directly refuses it, so you won't make a trip in vain?"

"Aunt Ma said there is a chance, and my father also thinks it's okay, so he wants me to go and see it. If it is directly rejected at that time, forget it, just give up and find another one nearby. Otherwise, my father is always wavering now, and my sister can't afford to delay."

Since they all want to be good, he won't say anything.

He thought, maybe he ate too much these days, made some money recently, and had too much free time, so he just went for this trip.

So people should not eat too much.

Anyway, he followed along and asked about the things he cared about.

"I heard that the relative who showed up at the dock before is now saying that he wants you to go back to worship your ancestors. When?"

"Two months later, I went with you this time to ask and see. It's better to talk in person. It's not clear on the phone."

"Oh, then if you have something else, I will go to ask myself, and we will meet at the dock."

"We'll see when the time comes, and we'll talk about it after we get ashore."

A Guang nodded, "Then go back to the cabin and lie down for a while. My father drives the boat, and his bed is just empty for you to lie down. It will be noon when we dock, so there is still a lot of time."

"Okay."

The other boatmen had already gone back to the cabin to lie down after finishing their work, and the two of them went in together. It was a long night and it was still early.

Ye Yaodong didn't have so many problems. He didn't care about other people's messy beds. As long as a man had a place to lie down on the sea, he was fine.

The noise of the machines continued, and the fishing boat kept shaking. Others got up to work, but he kept lying there, only half asleep and half awake. He got up to eat when he was fully awake. After eating, others worked, and he lay back down again.

It was not until they were almost at the provincial dock that A Guang came to call him, and he hurriedly got up.

The other boatmen were still lying there. They had only been sailing all the way and had not stopped to fish.

After they got off the boat and went to the dock, the Harvest left immediately.

Ye Yaodong stretched and twisted his neck. "Let the Harvest ship deliver it directly. It consumes a lot of fuel along the way. In the past, we could set the nets almost at dawn, but now it's not until noon. When we go out again, it's probably halfway through the afternoon before we can set the nets. We've wasted several nets."

"There's nothing we can do. It's inconvenient to take a car. It probably takes a whole day to transfer back and forth. It's too far."

"It's really too far. It's too much trouble to take a car. The traffic is too bad."

A Guang shrugged, and the two walked to the dock together while talking.

The dock in the provincial capital is bustling even at noon. There are ships docking intermittently throughout the day. There are people coming and going on the shore, and there are constant hawking.

Ye Yaodong looked around and happened to meet the eyes of Ye Yaohai who was sitting there eating melon seeds. After the other party looked at him in surprise, he immediately stood up and walked towards him.

"Comrade Ye Yaodong!"

"Big brother, are you here to enjoy the cool breeze?"

"Well, I'm just sitting here doing nothing. What's the good stuff today? It's just right for me to get some relief. I haven't been open for business for a long time since you were away. Why haven't you docked in the provincial capital for so long?"

"I've been to Zhejiang Province for a month. I ran into a typhoon just after I came back, and I haven't been out to sea since then. I came here with my brother-in-law today, so I thought I'd find you to chat."

"Okay, let's talk while we walk, and tell you about the ancestral hall." Ye Yaohai hooked his shoulder and pulled him directly to his hut.

Ye Yaodong stopped there, "Wait, I still have to accompany my brother-in-law to do something."

"What do you want to do? Do you need help? I have a few brothers who can help."

"I'm going to inquire about someone." Ye Yaodong looked at A Guang.

A Guang told him the town and village he was going to, saying that he was going to inquire about someone.

"Isn't this a town near our hometown? I don't know the village, but I know the town. If you want to go there, you can't catch a round trip by bus now. It only goes to the town, not the village."

"I should be able to take a tractor, right? Ask a tractor to take me there, and then wait there and send me back when the time comes."

Ye Yaohai pondered for a moment, "If you believe me, I will ask a brother to drive a tractor to take you there, and then bring you back when the time comes."

A Guang glanced at Ye Yaodong.

Ye Yaodong was also hesitant, "You see?"

A Guang looked at Ye Yaohai and said with a smile: "You are Dongzi's brother of the same clan. Dongzi also said before that he had received goods from you many times, and he helped a lot and saved a lot of trouble. Since the elder brother can help and save me some trouble, then I'll leave it to you."

"Okay, there is no work to do anyway, and the brothers are idle anyway. We are not strangers. I will let a brother go with you. We are familiar with that section of the road, and you don't have to call a tractor casually. When the time comes, you have to ask all the way and waste time."

A Guang thought it made sense. If someone knows the way, there is no need to waste time.

"Then I'll leave it to you."

"Let's go back inside. Then let Dongzi stay and talk. I'll let a brother go with you and lead the way."

Ye Yaodong was hooked by him and walked forward. Hearing him calling him Dongzi very smoothly, he just smiled.

He also sat at the door of the small purchasing point, watching Ye Yaohai call someone over to give instructions, and then drove a tractor over after a while.

"Then Dongzi, you stay here and talk to the elder brother. Since I have someone here who can lead the way, I will go by myself."

Ye Yaodong nodded, "Then you should be careful and come back early."

Ye Yaohai also told the brother who led the way to take good care of the people, and then they set off immediately.

"Go and prepare some wine and food, we will chat while enjoying the cool air at the door, and wait for your brother-in-law to come back."

"Drinking in broad daylight?"

"Why choose daytime or night to drink and reminisce about the past? We can do it anytime and anywhere if we are happy."

When the others heard what he said, they immediately ran to prepare, and Ye Yaodong did not say anything.

Ye Yaohai dug into his pockets and grabbed a handful of melon seeds for him, "Eat some first."

"Brother, you have a pretty leisurely life. Others are sweating under the sun, but you're sitting at the door, eating melon seeds leisurely."

"I can't help it. Business is not good. I can only open it occasionally and rely on the boats of outsiders like you."

"What did you do originally?"

"I used to? What I did originally was much more complicated."

"Smuggling?"

Ye Yaohai glared at him, "Nonsense, how can you be so direct? You just said it straight away, and it scared me."

"Ah, I also think that you are not outsiders, so I asked directly. Isn't it very common to do this now? There are smugglers everywhere, and they all show their cards."

Ye Yaodong laughed. Anyway, he was not the one smuggling, so why couldn't he ask directly?

"That's not it, don't guess."

"Hey, if you do this, I can ask you about the next thing."

"What is it?"

"A filling machine that can fill liquid into a plastic bag and then automatically seal it so that it won't leak out. I don't know if there is a fully automatic one, or a semi-automatic one. I heard it's imported, introduced from abroad, and not produced domestically. Do you know this thing?"

"Made abroad? Which country?"

"I don't know which country, I haven't seen it, I just heard about it from people."

"I'll ask you later."

"Brother, do you really have a way?"

Ye Yaohai turned his head to look at him, "Don't think too much, I'm not doing that. I'll ask the overseas Chinese in my hometown later to see if they know which country they are from."

Ye Yaodong was surprised, "They are all from the same clan? Haven't left yet?"

"Yes, they came back to donate money to repair the ancestral hall, the Mazu temple, and the road, and set up factories in their hometown villages. They performed operas for 7 days. Those days were so lively. Now the local governments are trying to keep them. Now they have arrived in the province, and they are probably about to leave. I'll ask for you in the next two days."

Ye Yaodong couldn't help but give a thumbs up.

"It's great, these overseas Chinese are really rich, and they come back to build their hometown."

"It was hard before, with eight mountains, one river, and one piece of land. They couldn't find a way out, so they had to go abroad."

"The visa was rejected in the morning, and they worshipped Mazu at noon and boarded the ship in the evening, right? Hahahaha..."

Ye Yaodong was just joking. This was a joke that spread on the Internet decades later. Fujianese are visa-free all over the world.

But when he said it and laughed, Ye Yaohai's surprised expression suddenly pretended to be expressionless. He suddenly understood something.

What the hell?

What the hell?

The truth?

The snakehead?

He just said it casually, and he guessed it right?

Ye Yaohai looked at Ye Yaodong's shocked expression and knew that he seemed to be exposed. He laughed awkwardly, "Haha, why are you so surprised? We are all from the same clan, so it's okay to ask?"

"Brother, you are really good!"

I will post one first, and I will finish the missing ones when I go home tomorrow. I can't write at night
