Chapter 1158 City Arrangements

Ye Xiaoxi climbed up from the ground using both hands and feet, and then lifted her two feet back and forth to show him.

"Does it look good? It's so comfortable~"

"Don't you see what kind of weather it is? With such a strong sun, you'll get prickly heat."

She shook her head and laughed, "La la la la ~ Let's go play~"

Lin Xiuqing looked at her helplessly and could only let her go, "Anyway, she'll know to take off her clothes when she's hot, and she'll be the one being laughed at."

"I'll leave first."

"Come back early."

Ye Yaodong nodded and strode towards the tractor at the door. The lighters had been moved to the car, and the dried fish collected yesterday were also moved to the car early.

As long as there is space in the car, it should not be wasted. Anyway, there are three shops in the city that can be used as warehouses.

At present, he runs only one shop, which is the most prosperous shop. One is rented out, one is used as a fish sauce warehouse, and the other two are used to store dried fish.

However, with the recent months of going to Zhejiang Province to fish, they haven't dried fish for more than three months. The city's inventory is running out, and both warehouses are almost empty. The batch of fish dried in the past two days is just the right time to ship it over to make up for it.

The weather is getting colder, and the Dongsheng is back. They have to go out to sea with the Fengshou to fish a lot, get more goods and dry them in large quantities. Autumn and winter are the best time to dry fish.

"Brother Dong, you are so awesome, so amazing... You make money wherever you go..."

"Brother Dong, no one can compare to you in these two trips to Zhejiang Province... Even people in our village know that you have many boats now and are a big boss. My father said that I am lucky..."

"Last month, a big thing happened between our village and Dongqiao Village. Fortunately, you are smart. They all suffered heavy losses. It's okay to go to jail for one trip, but at least you made money. However, you lost money when you bought a boat..."

"Brother Dong, I heard that you bought a house in Zhejiang Province and are now an official there. Do you have a little sister-in-law..."

Ye Yaodong was driving a tractor, and Wang Guangliang's babble kept coming to his ears. He just responded casually. Anyway, he was bored along the way, and he liked to talk. He could also hear more recent information in the village.

He went to bed early last night and didn't talk to Aqing in detail. It was just right to listen to this kid talking about the developments in the village, but he couldn't hold it when he heard about the little sister-in-law.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Where did the little sister-in-law come from? I went out to make money, not to find women."

"Hehe, everyone said privately that you can't hold it back when you go out for a month or two. You are handsome and rich. When you walk on the street, young girls and wives have to turn their heads to stare at you, so you bought a house and settled down there, so that you can go there every year..."

"Bullshit, is it spread in the village?"

"No, just a few people chatted and said that you bought a house, so you thought about settling down there, finding a little wife and having a few more children. Anyway, you are in another place, and no one knows whether you are married or not..."

"Don't spread things that shouldn't be spread. It will change as it is spread. Don't talk about it next time."

Wang Guangliang slapped his mouth, "I understand, I understand, this kind of thing can't be brought up, and I'm only asking about it now that it's just the two of us."

"Ask a bullshit, you know shit, it's not true, Don't spread rumors about things that don't make sense. Am I sick? I'm looking for a green hat for myself. If I really keep a woman outside and only have her for two or three months a year, it would be strange if she didn't make me a green hat. I'm so desperate that I'll spend money on others. "

"Besides, I'm floating on the sea all day and night, so how can I have time to go out and find women? I can't wait to fall asleep when I come back."

"Besides, I always bring at least a dozen people with me when I go out. What does it look like to have a woman among a bunch of men? At that time, everyone's eyes will be green like hungry wolves."

Ye Yaodong glanced at him again with a warning, "Go back and shut up, don't spread this nonsense, this kind of fake thing can also be spread as true."

Gossip is popular everywhere. In the era of lack of entertainment, everyone prefers to listen to gossip about others, especially those with color and gossip. As long as there is a hint of something that doesn't make sense, it can be spread vividly and vividly.

He now has a happy family with elderly parents and young children, a naughty son, a cute daughter, and a virtuous wife. He is quite satisfied.

In terms of his pursuit of life, he has already achieved perfection on the spiritual level, but he has to wait for the development of the times in terms of material things.

Wang Guangliang saw that he was serious and nodded quickly.

"I'll tell them when I get back, and tell them not to talk nonsense or make blind guesses."

"Brother Dong, is your position as President Ye permanent? They won't dismiss you directly when they're not there, will they?"

"Not now, but I don't know in the future, we'll talk about it later."

"If he's dismissed, that would be a shame, right? He's still an official, after all?"

"You're such a jinx, can't you say something nice? You've just become the vice president, and you're expecting me to be dismissed?"

"No...no, I'm just worried about you."

"I'm worried about me, so if you go to Zhejiang Province again in a while, you can come with me."

Wang Guangliang was stunned for a moment, "Ah? Are you still going? The weather is getting cold..."

"Not sure, let's talk about it later."

Ye Yaodong had some ideas in his mind, but it was still uncertain now, so at least he had to deal with some things at home and sell the lighter first.

"Brother Dong, are you really going again in a while?" Wang Guangliang looked skeptical.

He runs so frequently that it's hard not to wonder if he has a mistress outside, after all, he has bought a house.

"Shut up, if you keep talking, I'll take you there and leave you there."

It was quiet now.

After Ye Yaodong drove the tractor all the way to the city, he found that the vacant land he bought had changed a lot.

The vacant land over there was originally diagonally opposite the market, separated by only a big road, and he saw it at a glance when he drove the tractor over.

There were some earth slopes, half-man-high grass, and a lot of domestic garbage, but now they have all been sorted out. At a glance, there is a large flat land, most of which is exposed with yellow mud.

And there are some small bamboo pieces inserted at the edge of this piece of land, and a rope is tied to the bamboo pieces, which encloses the scope of this piece of land.

It was noon at this time, but no one saw it. He drove the tractor around the edge of the vacant land first, and then drove to the entrance of the market with satisfaction.

"Brother Dong, we come here every few days to deliver goods, and we have seen that this piece of land has been built up bit by bit. Now the ditch has been dug, and the stones will soon be filled. After the stones are filled, we can use bricks to build the wall."

"If it weren't for the intermittent rain caused by the typhoon in the past two or three months, it would have been finished long ago."

Ye Yaodong retracted his gaze and only nodded.

At noon, Lin's father was also eating in Lin Xianghui's store. He was surprised to see him back, and Lin Guangyuan's three siblings had already called him with surprise.

Ye Yaodong explained to Lin's father that he had just returned yesterday, and because he brought back a batch of lighters, he couldn't wait to come here immediately today.

He also explained how to sell Lin's father's lighters, and at the same time touched one for him and Lin Xianghui.

Lin Guangyuan looked at them with fiery eyes, staring at their lighters.

Ye Yaodong knew that this kid had secretly learned to smoke, but he must not give it to him, lest he be considered as encouraging smoking.

The father and son were delighted after receiving the lighter.

"We saw someone use this, it's said to be quite expensive, are you selling it for 10 yuan?"

"I heard that the cheapest one costs dozens of yuan, you're only selling it for 10 yuan?"

"I smoke hookah, this lighter is not very useful to me, it's a waste, you should sell it, it's more convenient for me to smoke hookah with matches." Lin's father reluctantly put it in front of him.

"Keep it, as a souvenir, I'll bring back 2,000, not much difference between you two, relatives and friends at home have also given it to me."

Ye Yaodong thought about it and said to him again, "If someone wholesales, it's 8 yuan, but at least 20 or more must be wholesaled, and retail sales will cost 10 yuan."

"Okay, I know."

This is a wholesale market, give a little discount and let others wholesale, any vendor wholesale a few, and you can make a few yuan, it's easy to make money.

People are most afraid of comparison. This thing will be expensive if placed in ordinary people, but as long as it is compared with the Friendship Store, everyone will think it is cheap, and the tendency to buy will greatly increase, and he can also sell it faster.

He came suddenly at noon, and Sister Lin did not cook more rice for him. At this time, she had already gotten up and cooked noodles for them.

Anyway, whenever they come here, they eat here for free, even Lin's father and mother eat here every day.

Ye Yaodong talked to them about the situation there for more than a month while eating, and they also told him about the situation of his 13 acres of land next to him, and that Lin Xianghui's house was almost built, and the efficiency was very high.

After the meal, they drove the tractor to the door of the store on the other side to unload the goods.

He looked at the warehouse that was almost empty, and smiled with his teeth showing. No goods meant that they had been cashed in.

During the Chinese New Year this year, he specially stocked up 20,000 to 30,000 kilograms. 10,000 kilograms were sold at Linji, and he also had more than 10,000 kilograms in his hands. In addition, he kept stocking up afterwards. He didn't expect that he would run out of stock after two months of not drying.

They sold very quickly, and he thought he could last until the Chinese New Year. Fortunately, in autumn, he had to dry them in large quantities. What he dried was all new goods, which could be replenished and preserved until next year.

After moving the goods, before the start of work in the open space in front, Ye Yaodong drove the tractor to find Director Chen.

This time he brought some jellyfish products, local specialties and two lighters.

When he arrived, Director Chen had woken up from his nap and was about to go to work. He happened to meet him and had to go back upstairs.

Ye Yaodong was afraid of delaying his work, so he put the things down first and followed Director Chen out.

"I come here every day at mealtime. People who don't know me would think I went to your house on purpose to eat. Haha, I'm a little embarrassed. It takes so much time to get here from home early in the morning. I came here after lunch. Fortunately, I didn't delay your work."

"What's the matter? You brought your own food. What's wrong with having a meal at my house? It's too polite. Next time, I'll just come to your house. Did this trip go well?"

"It went well. I also became the vice president of the Fisheries Association there. I'm very famous in the village. I came back yesterday evening. I heard that the news spread all over the village last night. I guess everyone in the village knows it today."

He patted his thigh, "What a pity. I was exhausted when I came back yesterday. I went to bed early after dinner. Today, I hurried to the city. I didn't even go to the village for a walk to hear how people complimented me and called me President Ye."

Director Chen was amused by him and laughed, but he also asked him curiously, "What is the Fisheries Association? Where does this vice president come from?"

He looked at the bright sun outside, then looked at Director Chen pushing the bicycle in his hand, and there was a tractor parked next to him, and thought for a while.

"You can either put your bicycle in the bed of my tractor, and I will drive the tractor to take you to work at the Ocean Bureau? In order to save you from being late, on the way, I will tell you about the origin of this fishery association, and how I became the of?"

"Okay, it just works a little faster."

Ye Yaodong helped him put the bicycle on the tractor, let him sit at the front of the tractor, and told him while driving slowly.

Finally, when we arrived at the entrance of the Ocean Bureau, Director Chen also had an idea.

"You said that even Wen City in Zhejiang Province has established a fishery association. Do we need to set up one here to facilitate management? Our area is also close to the sea and belongs to the southeast coast. It also has flood seasons. It has been the same in the past. Accidents happen frequently, and maritime management must be strengthened to prevent it from being too late.”

"Indeed, it is indeed too late to wait until the situation arises before thinking about it. Tragedies have already been caused. What happened over there in the past two months is also a lesson learned. When I came back to the village, I heard that because of the gunfight over there, two villages in our area were damaged. There was a fight with the other side of the town, and it ended badly, with no one taking advantage."

Director Chen stood at the door and frowned in thought, but did not go in immediately.

Ye Yaodong added: "I think we can indeed follow suit. After all, it would be good to form a social group and organize help to participate in supervision. It does not necessarily manage the sea, but can also help implement policies on land to promote the development of our fishery. "

"The wholesale market in our city belongs to fishery and aquatic products. Setting up a social group association will definitely unite our fishermen to a certain extent and provide more support policies, which will also allow our area to develop better. ”

Director Chen nodded, "That makes sense. We can't lag behind others. I'll think about it later."

"Hey, okay, you go in and go to work. When it's time, I won't disturb you anymore. Come back when you have time."

"good."

Ye Yaodong stood there for a while, waiting for someone to push the bicycle in, and then got on the tractor again.

Wang Guangliang came to him and said, "Brother Dong, if a fishery association is established in this city, wouldn't you also be invited to be the vice president?"

"Do you know all this?"

"Is that what you're paying attention to?"

"Quite smart, not stupid."

Wang Guangliang's eyes widened, "Oh my God? Really? Do you want to come to the city to be the vice president again?"

"The establishment of the fishery association is inevitable. It must be established early or late. So why not I say a few more words to establish it early and see if I can get another position."

Although he is not really an official, he is still a member of a social group, which can be regarded as a social status and an honor. The name sounds quite intimidating.

In the city here, he has a shop, land and a house. He has to come here every three days. It is quite necessary to get a job.

For ordinary people, officials like sesame and mung bean can be overwhelming. Positions in this kind of social group can also have frequent contact with local officials. Once you get to know each other well, the officials have to give face.

Now that he has established his business, he still needs to gain some social status. When the time comes, he can also gain some connections and gain some familiarity, so that everything in the future will be easier to handle.

It was also there that the position of President Ye was mentioned, and he thought that there could be a fishery association here.

These are all considered local, and there will also be a national fisheries association.

Maybe he can become a people's representative.

There was just a proposal, and it hadn't even started yet. He had already thought about the glory he could have in the future.

Wang Guangliang has already given a thumbs up, "Ah, brother Dong is still great. Take one step at a time and see ten steps at a time. You will soon be able to compete with President Ye again."

"It's hard to tell. Just keep your mouth shut and don't spread it beforehand. Otherwise, everyone will take it seriously and it will be embarrassing without me."

"Hehe, then President Ye is still President Ye."

"I'll drive the tractor back to the wholesale market for you. I guess work has already begun on my dozen acres of land. Come over and take a look and go back later."

"good."

Not even two minutes later, Wang Guangliang hesitated again, "Brother Dong, can I buy that lighter from you?"

"Of course you can, I brought it back just to sell it for money..."

"No, no, what I mean is, can I get one on credit first? When the salary is paid in a few days, you ask the third sister-in-law to directly deduct the money for the lighter? Hehe..."

Ye Yaodong raised his eyebrows, "Fooling yourself to make a fool of yourself? Where did the salary I gave you every month go? Do you still need She? It's 8 yuan for you. I'll go to the store to get one later."

"Okay, thank you Brother Dong. The extra salary I received this year was either to buy bicycles or TVs for my family. I also borrowed some to help my brother get a wife. Now I really have no money."

"Are you generous? Have you added all the big things at home?"

"Hehe, almost everything has been added. My mother said that after I marry my wife, when the time comes to separate the family, she will move them here for me. The things I bought are still mine. Now that I have these things at home, the whole family's faces are full of smiles. If there is light, it will be easy for brothers to talk about their wives.”

"That's true. The whole family will be proud of those things and enjoy them. When new ones come out in a few years, I will get married and buy new ones. The old ones can be discarded to honor my parents."

"So I bought them willingly. I can't get along with Brother Dong. But I really need to save money. I can't go home anymore."

"Well, it's right. Which young person doesn't keep some money? I also kept 20 at home. I'll take 30 back later. I'll keep some at home. I guess people from other villages will come to buy them. Anyway, they are all 8 yuan in our village."

"Okay, I know."

Originally, I kept them to give to others. If you think about it, someone will come to buy them.

In recent years, everyone has more money. There are TVs one after another in the village. Men are willing to buy a lighter for a few yuan to show off.

The two chatted and returned to the wholesale market.

Ye Yaodong also saw the open space he had fenced off, where workers were already busy working.

When the tractor stopped, he jumped off first.

Wang Jianxin also trotted over.

Although there were many tractors, trucks and vans coming and going around the market, there were no tractors parked on the open space.

"Boss, you're back!"

"Well, how's it going?"

"I'm watching them all. I come to supervise them at the appointed time every day. No one dares to be lazy or slack off." He showed Ye Yaodong the notebook and pen in his hand, "I remember the attendance. Uncle and Big Brother sometimes come to see them at the appointed time."

Ye Yaodong knew that the uncle and big brother he was talking about were his father-in-law and brother-in-law.

He took the notebook and flipped through it. There was a date on each page.

The names of the people on each day were almost the same. Occasionally, one or two were missing or asked for leave due to heat stroke. After all, they had to work under the sun on a hot day, and heat stroke was inevitable.

When he turned to the page at the end of last month, he saw a money expenditure. Wang Jianxin also explained that it was a month, and everyone had to be paid, otherwise everyone would have complaints.

"My father-in-law paid it, right?"

"Yes, a worker gets two yuan a day, and a master chef gets four yuan. The boss can check it and it can be correct."

"Well, you have worked hard, and you are still basking in the sun on a hot day. I will give you a little more salary at the end of this month."

Wang Jianxin's eyes lit up, "Thank you, boss, I will definitely work hard, remember my attendance, supervise them, and don't let them slack off."

Although his salary is not as good as those of the working workers, he doesn't have to work after all. He just needs to come here every day to count the number of people, and then find a cool place to sit and watch them work, and don't let them slack off.

It's more comfortable to live a relaxed life than to walk around the streets and shout all day selling popsicles.

Now the weather is getting colder, and popsicles are not selling well, but this job can still be done, at least for another two or three months. As long as he works hard, such a large factory will always need manpower.

After reading the attendance book, Ye Yaodong took a look at his own construction site and saw that the foundation was filled with stones. He could immediately transport bricks to build a house, so he also told Wang Jianxin about this.

He was not afraid that this kid would have bad intentions.

He also asked for a good number of bricks in advance and brought them over in trucks. He would naturally let his brother-in-law take care of it. After all, he was also building a house nearby. He had no materials here, so his brother-in-law asked someone to deliver them and asked Wang Jianxin to keep accounts.

And he had no accidents in the future. He would stay at home and go to sea. He would go back and forth to the city frequently, and he could come to take a look every now and then.

After looking at his own construction site and the progress of his brother-in-law's house, he thought that he should be able to drink his brother-in-law's housewarming wine soon.

He went back to the shop and sat down to rest for a while. He was tired from running back and forth since he left home in the morning. He also settled accounts with his father-in-law.

During the Mid-Autumn Festival, his father-in-law and brother-in-law went back to their hometown to celebrate the festival. They took his tractor back and gave the accounts and profit of the month to Aqing.

However, the Mid-Autumn Festival is almost a month away. The accounts of this month are 8,300 yuan. Among them, the army has a stable monthly supply of 2,000 kilograms, all of which are a combination of various dried fish and dried goods.

This number is small compared to the size of the army, but they can't eat dried fish every day, so it's just a fixed small purchase.

As for Boss Zhou, he often wants a few thousand kilograms, but sometimes he doesn't have it. It's not very fixed. The monthly wholesale quantity of the store is also not fixed. It varies. This month is pretty good.

When his father-in-law gave him the money, he repeatedly told him to dry more goods, otherwise there would not be enough to sell. Even the squid he had saved during the flood season had already been sold out.

Originally, he wanted to stock up a little more and sell it slowly until the New Year. The price was relatively high, so people were more willing to buy it during the New Year when visiting relatives.

As a result, all of them were swept away by Boss Zhou at the beginning of last month. I heard that he was rushing to sell a batch of goods before the Mid-Autumn Festival, and he wanted high-quality goods.

There were not many goods to sell, and his father-in-law was more anxious than him. No one knew the profit of the shop better than his father-in-law.

"Oh, I didn't tell you earlier. Otherwise, I could buy a batch of goods before the market closed and bring them back for you to dry. It's a pity to go back empty now."

Ye Yaodong collected the payment and said nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter, we are all back. We will go out to sea in a few days, and there will be more goods by then. If it is not enough, ask someone to collect a batch at the nearby dock and send it over. Let's dry it while the weather is good these days."

"That's fine, then you go back early. If you go back now, you can still get home before dark. If you delay any longer, it will be dark halfway."

"Okay."

I got more than 8,000 yuan in the account. I don't know how much I sold last month. I didn't talk to A Qing in detail yesterday.

"I'll trouble Dad and Big Brother to help look after the construction site and the store."

"I'll do it. It's right next to us. It's convenient to take a look occasionally. Are you sure how to build it? Tell me in advance so I can have an idea."

"Build the outer wall first, two meters high. Then go to the glass factory to get a truckload of broken glass like my yard and sprinkle it on it. Then build a two-story house on the empty space inside and a warehouse with a width of one acre. The rest will be planned later."

"That's fine. It's hard to say what will happen in the future. Anyway, we must build the warehouse first and move the goods in the store to the warehouse for storage. We can rent the store after it is vacated."

Ye Yaodong nodded. In fact, he was thinking of storing dried fish and fish sauce separately.

But his size is not that big now. He can build a big warehouse first and store it in two sides at most.

He hasn't bought the filling equipment yet. Once he buys it, he will definitely install it in his workshop at home. When the packaging is done, he will take it to the city warehouse for storage. The city has convenient transportation and is more suitable for storage, so it is convenient for transportation in and out of the warehouse.

As the goods at home are fermenting there, it is definitely more convenient to fill them at home. Anyway, he has a tractor, so transportation back and forth is not a problem.

"Then I will go back first. Dad will also see the sales of lighters in the next two days. Call me back and let me know. I just came back and have a lot of things to do. It is impossible for me to run back and forth every day in the next two days."

"I know, I will sell it for two days and call you back."

The biggest regret in life is that a person cannot have youth and the feeling of youth at the same time.

Bai Yang is an exception.

Because he was reborn.
