Chapter 1166 Returning Home

Fang Jingfu didn't stay long. After they started eating, he went back and planned to come back tomorrow. It was already dark by now.

After eating, the boatmen happily joined the army of workers over there and worked together, planning to work double jobs.

After Ye Yaodong finished talking to Lin Xiuqing, he came out to explain to the twin brothers that he had already assigned them tasks and introduced their work, and then they can officially start work tomorrow.

They eat their own food, and if they want to live, they will live in this house. The rice, flour, grains and oils he brought here will be left here for them when the time comes. However, since they will only stay for a few days, he will not bring much rations.

It's just because there are so many people and so much consumption, so it seems like there are so many things, so I picked up several loads when I walked in. The rest they consumed should be able to last the two brothers for a few days, giving them a buffer before they can figure out their surroundings.

The twins were very happy. They could start earning double jobs right away the day after they came out.

"I'm not giving you double wages to support you to do good deeds. You should work hard and keep an eye on me at the same time. If there is any big move in the workshop, if there is any abnormality or anything happens, you have to call me to inform me, especially It’s Ah Xiao who helps with piece calculations.”

"I spent a lot of money to invest a lot of money in this workshop. If I'm not here, I need you to keep an eye on it for me. Do you understand? You have to do the work that you should do, and you have to be more active in doing things. You can't just get paid and not work. When people have objections, I will have to ask you to come back.”

"I understand Brother Dong, we will do a good job for you."

"Remember, if you get two salaries, you have to work two jobs."

"sure."

After Ye Yaodong beat the two brothers, he let them do what they wanted, and then went to find Lin Xiuqing.

She had already started working on her hands again.

"It's almost 10 o'clock. It's time to go to bed. Why don't you keep doing it? Aren't you tired after a long day on the boat?"

"What's everyone doing?"

"They want to make money, do you need to make money?"

"There is work here to make money, but it would be a pity not to do it. If you earn a little bit, you can buy oil, salt, soy and vinegar."

Ye Yaodong couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

She still has 200,000 yuan on hand, and she is still thinking about making money.

"Don't look down on this small amount of money just because you have money on hand. I think they can earn a lot if they work in a day. I asked, some of them work from morning to night, and occasionally work overtime, and they say they can earn three or four dollars a day. That’s a lot more than what workers in most big factories earn.”

"They are forced by life and have to work day and night. Why are you working so hard? It's so late at night and you can't bear to sleep. You are still working here and you go to sleep."

"Oh, I'm working hard. You go to bed. If I'm sleepy, I'll go to bed naturally."

Seeing how energetic she was, Ye Yaodong couldn't resist her, so he had no choice but to let her go and go to bed first.

He only slept for a few hours last night and didn't sleep again. He only squinted when he went to the cabin. He was already very sleepy.

He didn't even know what time Lin Xiuqing lay down next to him to sleep. He only knew that when he woke up early in the morning, his side was empty again, and when he went out to see her, she was there again.

Ye Yaodong was speechless. Didn't he ask her to work and earn money...

When he walked over and took a closer look, his father was also working hard there...

Looking around again, all his boatmen were working double jobs there.

"Have you made breakfast? Are you working so hard? Did I bring you here to work?"

Everyone replied one after another, "Haha, the porridge is in the pot. We have all eaten it."

"Isn't it boring to sit around after dinner? It's just sitting around, so why not help out a little bit?"

"Yeah, it's better than us getting together to gamble. Wouldn't it be better to have something to do?"

Lin Xiuqing also said: "Isn't this trip just to transport your goods? There is nothing else. Everyone can help a little bit, and it can also increase some extra income. It is better than them sitting aside and playing cards. You go Eat your food and leave us alone."

Father Ye also echoed, "Yes, leave us alone."

Ye Yaodong shook his head helplessly. He really had nothing to do, so he had to let them go. He would have something to do after breakfast.

The specialties brought here specially should be delivered to Zeng Weimin after breakfast.

However, Zeng Weimin was the only couple here, and his children were not around. He gave him a sack of dried fish, a basket of squid, and a basket of shrimps. After obtaining his consent, Zeng Weimin took most of them out and distributed them to the people in the bureau. other people.

Everyone is very happy, and it feels like receiving welfare during the Chinese New Year.

Ye Yaodong didn't care. He knew that it was all gifts from him. It would be better if everyone had a share. At least he would remember him.

He only stayed for a while and left after chatting for a few words so as not to disturb others' work.

It's convenient to have a bicycle, and it's not that painful to pedal back and forth.

When he got home, Fang Jingfu was already waiting for him there.

The contract and ink pad were all ready, just waiting for his signature and fingerprint.

Even Fang Jingfu's brother and sister-in-law were there, and his brother had to sign and have his fingerprints printed. Before, it was just the two brothers. They could divide the money equally and just agree verbally.

Now that he is an outsider who has injected capital, of course he has to implement the actual contract allocation.

The contract also clearly stated that he invested 50,000 yuan in the shares, accounting for only 20%. Fang Jingfu was the person in charge, and mainly participated in sales management and capital at the same time, accounting for 45%, while his brother invested in technology, accounting for 35%. %.

Then Fang Jingfu and his brother both enjoyed a certain monthly salary because they worked. He did not participate in any management or do any work, so he received no salary.

When Fang Jingfu signed the contract, he specifically told him.

Ye Yaodong nodded and had no objection. He understood this. If you work, you must be paid. Even if you are a shareholder, you must be paid for your work.

The twin brothers he brought in actually worked on his behalf, and the wages they received were actually his.

Ye Yaodong read it from beginning to end, and after listening to Fang Jingfu explain clearly to him one by one, he immediately signed and fingerprinted without any questions, and the other two people also followed suit.

The contract was made in triplicate, and each of the three people kept one copy.

After everything was signed, the contract was equivalent to having legal effect. The three of them were very happy. This was beginning to take shape and became standardized.

Lin Xiuqing watched the whole process from the side without saying a word. She just smiled and listened with her ears raised. After the contract was handed over to her, she took a closer look.

After everyone signed the contract, they felt relaxed and discussed going to a state-owned restaurant for dinner now.

"This is our joint dinner. I have already reserved a table early in the morning and paid in advance for them to buy food. Otherwise, their daily menu is limited, with only a few items. Small restaurants in other places Yes, but it’s a bit more upscale than a state-owned hotel.”

"Go, it's noon, let's have a meal together to celebrate the happy cooperation."

Lin Xiuqing said with a smile: "I will put the contract away first and bring a basket with me. I will go out for a walk later. They are all out anyway."

"Then let's wait. Go and put it away quickly. This thing is very important."

"good."

Ye Yaodong turned around and told his father to go with him.

But Father Ye waved his hand, "I won't go. You young people can go eat by yourselves. I can just eat at home. It will take several hours to go back and forth. I can do a lot of work here."

"Do you really think you are here to work and earn money? It doesn't matter if you earn a few cents less. The bicycle can also fit in. The back of President Fang's bicycle is empty, so you can sit on his bicycle."

"No, no, just go. My old man will not get involved in your young people's affairs."

Ye Yaodong persuaded him a few more times, but his father shook his head, so forget it and let him eat with the boatmen at home.

After going to the state-owned restaurant, while eating, he asked him if he could give him the 5,000 lighters tomorrow. If he could give them to him tomorrow, he would go back directly tomorrow night.

Counting the arrival yesterday, today, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, it took exactly 4 days to arrive in the city and deliver it to my father-in-law. It can be considered that I have not broken my promise to consumers.

Moreover, after lunch, he can take his wife around the city on his bicycle. He can also spend another day shopping tomorrow, which is almost enough. There is no need to stay for too many days.

A bunch of people he brought, including his father and his wife, are already obsessed with work, and they will be reluctant to go back when the time comes. Everyone has been working for most of the day this morning, and they are addicted to it and can't extricate themselves.

The host and guest enjoyed the meal and got closer. Lin Xiuqing and Fang Jingfu's brother's wife, Cheng Huijia, sat next to each other and chatted happily.

Even when they were going shopping after dinner, Cheng Huijia pulled the two brothers along.

It was supposed to be a party of two, but after dinner it became a party of five.

Lin Xiuqing spent the whole afternoon shopping, and went back satisfied when the basket she brought with her was filled to the brim.

Ye Yaodong laughed at her on the way back. The work she did all night last night and the money she earned this morning were not enough to buy the items in the basket.

"Then it can't be the same. What I earn from working is mine. How can the specialty items I buy be used as my wages?"

"Oh, what you earn is yours, what I earn is for spending."

"Isn't that right?"

"Yes, yes, you are right. It is my responsibility to support my family. I earn enough, so I don't need you to bear the responsibility."

She smiled and said, "The couple still have to do it together, but I have made too little these two days. I'd better go back and buy oil, salt, soy and vinegar. At least I can see it."

"I earn half of what you earn, so aren't you keeping an eye on my rear?" Ye Yaodong said with a smile.

"As long as you know."

"I'll go out tomorrow and buy some local specialty pastries. I can take them home at night and keep them for the next day without spoiling. Even on a hot day, the pastries can be stored for two or three days. Now that the weather is cooler, they should be able to be stored for a few more days."

"Okay, don't buy anything else, just buy some pastries to give away."

After running all the way out of Zhejiang Province, when she returns, her neighbors and relatives will surround her with admiration and compliments. It is also right to bring some pastries back for everyone to try, and the trip is not in vain.

After returning home and finishing her meal, Lin Xiuqing continued to fuck her lighter until late at night, very excited.

After returning to the house, she originally wanted to talk to Ye Yaodong, but who knew that he was already snoring, so she had to wait until the next day to talk to him.

Ye Yaodong was pulled into the room by her to talk after breakfast the next day. He thought she was going to say something, but who knew that she also had other thoughts.

"You think, can we also let people customize the accessories and assemble the lighters ourselves? That way you don't have to come all the way to buy the goods."

"I heard from other workers that there are now several small lighter workshops in the city. Although they are not as good as here, they can still work there."

"It doesn't look very technical, so it shouldn't be a big deal if we just follow the trend, right?"

"Do you understand this industry? Do you have the energy? Are you confident that you can do it well? Do you have the background? Can you find suitable and trustworthy people to manage it?"

Ye Yaodong's questions stumped her.

"If we go back and do it alone, it will be considered a backstabbing. We just signed the contract and then turn around and start doing our own tricks. The money invested will be in vain."

"Isn't it good like this now? We invest some money, and naturally someone will take care of us and take care of everything for us. We just wait for the money to be distributed. If we do it ourselves, we will still have a headache."

"Now the full power is given to Fang Jingfu. The two brothers occupy the majority. They must be thinking about becoming bigger and stronger, creating greater glory, and leaving other workshops behind in the short term. Otherwise, why are they in such a hurry to raise funds?"

"With them taking care of us, wouldn't it be nice for us to be the hands-off shopkeepers? Why do we have to do it ourselves? The boat, shop, and two workshops I have are enough for me to worry about, and I can't make enough money. "

"Neither of us understands this, so we might as well leave it to them. It's better than finding someone else to do it ourselves, right? We don't understand this anyway, and now there are ready-made people to help us."

"Now we can get shares and sell goods for money, which is good. We have already made a lot of money, but we can't be too greedy and want everything we see."

Lin Xiuqing nodded repeatedly, "Yes, I made a mistake. I really can't keep everything in my arms. Invest some money and let others do it, and you can save yourself the worry. At most, it will be a little troublesome to go back and forth."

"I have made an agreement with him to give me 10,000 in one month. Then I will go back and forth once a month."

"10,000..."

"It's not too much. You can just leave it and sell it slowly. After all, the first 2,000 are just to test the water. After that, someone will come and batch it. After that, the reputation will spread, and of course more people will come to batch it, and the circulation will increase." It’s probably not enough to sell.”

"Okay, you figure it out."

"In the past two years, everyone's living standards have gradually improved, and demand will naturally increase."

"I don't understand what you're saying. Anyway, it's up to you. I'm going to work to make money."

"Nima...are you really crazy? I brought you here to play, but you are here to make money. While the sun is not bright in the morning, go out and buy pastries now. There should be pastries coming out of the oven in the morning. Buy some fresh ones. You can also It will definitely taste better if you take a few bites.”

"That's okay. You don't have to go out in the afternoon. You can always work here."

Ye Yaodong shook his head, feeling helpless, "Then when the time comes, your neighbors will ask you, what fun things are there in Wenzhou? You said making lighters is fun."

"It's quite fun, and the assembly is also quite interesting. But when it comes to shopping, don't I go out for shopping? The urban area here is not much different from our urban area. There are only a few high-rise buildings, and there are only a few places where you can buy things. In those one or two streets, most of the others are residential buildings or short bungalows, no difference.”

"Everyone wears the same clothes on the road, and there are no foreigners to see. There is nothing new when I go out, except for some special food carts, which feel a little different."

That does make sense.

This year is indeed not suitable for traveling. Those who travel far are either for work or business, otherwise there would be no one traveling around.

"This place is quite big, but we only go to the prosperous areas. There is not much to see in other places. I will go out and take photos of some landmark buildings for you later, such as the Wenzhou City Government Building and the Normal School. Otherwise, everyone will think that you are here just to work and make money.”

Lin Xiuqing smiled and patted him, "Okay."

Ye Yaodong also wanted to take his father out for a walk, but his father refused.

"You two are walking around, why am I, an old man, going to follow you? It's not like you've never been here before. What's there to see? You bought something a few times ago, but you didn't buy it this time, so you've only been out for two days. Let’s go back to buy things in three days. Where did your mother think I got so much money?”

It will be revealed.

"That's up to you, you can make your own money here."

"It's good. I earn my pension money here. I work from morning to midnight. I can earn several yuan a day, which allows me to buy a lot of tobacco."

It was so pitiful to say that it made him seem like he had no money to spend on him.

"Haha, President Ye, you have to give your father some money to spend, look at how hard he works."

"Yes, we are at an age where we are enjoying happiness. Even if we want to enjoy happiness, we still have to work hard for our sons and grandchildren. He is President Ye's father, and he is still working there."

"Your father is too hard-working and doesn't know how to enjoy the blessings he deserves. If I have such a promising son, I have to let him support me."

"Give your dad more money to spend. It's just because the money is too little that you think about working hard..."

Ye Yaodong: His reputation has been ruined by his father.

Seeing Ye Yaodong looking at him unkindly, Father Ye was worried that he would not let him do the next thing without waiting for him to speak. He quickly explained to others in broken Mandarin.

"No, no, he gave me money. From time to time, he gave me a sum of private money and paid me my salary every month. It's just that the salary was taken away by his mother and didn't fall into my hands, but I still have it in my hands. With the private money he secretly gave me, I just couldn’t stay idle.”

"Everyone is working there to make money. I can't just sit there and watch. It's not a tiring job in the first place. If you can do something, it's not that important. How much or how little you earn is not that important. You just have to have something to do. "

"We have been working there all our lives. It's not like we can't move now. How can we sit still? Moving around may help us live longer. If we don't move, isn't it the same as waiting to die?"

"Besides, who would complain about having too much money? Any money we can earn is good. It's not easy to make money. How can we rely on our sons? As long as we can move, it doesn't matter if we work a little more."

"My three sons are all very filial and promising. I won't have to worry about my old age. Now I just work casually and I'll be gone tomorrow."

The people around sighed, "You are lucky..."

"So it is important to raise children. Have more children. If one of them succeeds, you will enjoy happiness in this life."

"Who says it's not true? We still have to have more children. As long as one of them succeeds, the family will not have to worry about their lives."

"Damn it, we are not allowed to have more children now. What's the use of one child? Two children means that there will be two people to help share the burden of old age."

As they chatted, they went off topic and kept complaining.

The locals also have a serious preference for boys over girls. They all want to have sons. The idea of ​​raising sons to provide for old age is deeply rooted in the minds of the older generation.

For example, the most common term for them is "laonianke", which refers to women who sit there and gossip all day long.

Haci: liar. Barchi: idiot. Mengguo: nonsense. Eat: word dig. Zeitou: pighead. Ni na ge bei: you ma f b.

She was also particularly enthusiastic and would scold him in the local Vancouver dialect whenever she got the chance.

For example, she would scold him at night when she was about to go to bed.

"Thief, why don't you go to bed? We have to board the boat to go home at night."

"You still say you are addicted?"

"Hahaha, I think their local dialect is very interesting."

"Then why don't I keep you here to earn money and learn the local dialect?"

"Then you can go back and marry another concubine?"

"You know all this? When the tiger is not at home, the monkey is the king. I have to marry 10 or 8 concubines, one to eat with me, one to sleep with me, one to go out to sea with me, one to look after my shop, one to look after my workshop, one to look after my children, one..."

"How can 10 or 8 be enough? You have to have two to accompany you when you eat? Both hands can't be idle? You have to have two to sleep, otherwise how can I massage your back, shoulders and legs at the same time?"

"That makes sense!"

"I think two people are not enough for sleeping. There should be 7 people. They should be arranged in a row from Monday to Sunday, and be the bridegroom every night."

"My wife is thoughtful."

Lin Xiuqing grabbed his ear fiercely, "Aren't you afraid of dying?"

"Hiss~ Be gentle, don't you still have you? Just give me some nourishment."

"You wish."

Seeing that she didn't let go, Ye Yaodong had to hug her and throw her down, "Okay, sleep, my ears are red because of you, just kidding. I was just talking casually, who asked you to take over."

"I was just talking casually, who asked you to say that you are reasonable on the left and your wife is thoughtful on the right? I think that's what you think in your heart."

While saying this, Lin Xiuqing also stretched out her index finger and poked his heart fiercely, and he quickly grabbed it.

"Stop poking, you'll poke a hole if you keep poking. Go to bed quickly, or you'll have to get up again at night. It's not pleasant to be on the sea without sleep all day."

"Hmph, lie down, don't press me."

Ye Yaodong did as he was told.

It was indeed a little late at this time. They spent a lot of time counting the goods after dinner, and then they packed up their things and were busy until just now.

At night, they had to borrow the carts in the workshop to push the goods. Those lighters were very heavy. If they moved them by manpower, it would take too much time to wait for several trips back and forth.

Fang Jingfu had just received a sum of capital injection and had money. He had already ordered a tractor these two days.

Ye Yaodong planned to remind him later where he could buy a piece of land and build a workshop and warehouse by himself, and then apply for a company after the policy was relaxed in a few years.

Anyway, he has someone behind him. It is not difficult to get a piece of land by spending a little more money to find a relationship. It is very easy to get land now. As long as there is land, even if the business is not good in the future, it will not lose much.

Moreover, only with a special workshop can there be a place to expand and strengthen. It has only been a short time. Now this workshop feels a little bit small. It is because of the morning and evening shifts that it can accommodate so many people.

If your place is big enough, others will trust you more than other small workshops. The appearance is also very important.

Now he did not mention it immediately because he thought that the incident of the Eight Kings had not been long. If he got a piece of land to build a workshop and made a big momentum, it would be easy to be regarded as a typical example.

Even if he has someone behind him, there will definitely be enemies, and he may not be able to keep it.

For example, the Eight Kings are so rich and have such a big business. He must have a good relationship with the local officials, but why is he regarded as a typical example? It’s because he has too much money.

Policies are always changing, so we still have to take it slowly and not take too big steps.

Even if he told Fang Jingfu now, he would just stay put and not dare to make any big moves.

At least now this workshop has been cleared, and it doesn't matter what he does here. If he does something else outside, everyone will know that he has made a lot of money, and that would be risky.

The return trip was also smooth.

It was the same when we came, and it would be the same when we go back.

Ye Yaodong only wanted to hurry on his way, but the wind direction on the return trip was not so smooth.

Originally, he planned to sail directly to the city, but it was dark when he arrived near their town. He calculated that it would be midnight when he arrived in the city.

His father-in-law and mother-in-law must have gone to bed, and they had to get up in the early morning to open the door to do business. There was no need to bother them in the middle of the night. It would be better to go home first and have a good sleep at the same time.

It would not make any difference if he drove the tractor to deliver the goods the next morning. It would only take half a day.

Lin Xiuqing also contributed to this.

She wanted to go back to the village first. She had been out for so many days and passed by her home. She must go home first. She was always thinking about the children and things at home.

And it was inconvenient for her to go to the toilet on the boat, so she tried to drink less water and eat less, and hold it in if she could.

If she couldn't hold it in, she would take advantage of everyone sleeping in the cabin, let Ye Yaodong watch the wind on the rudder tower, and secretly go to the stern to solve it, and then flush it into the sea with water.

Fortunately, everyone didn't need to work. Except for eating, everyone basically lay in the cabin.

If she could go home, she would of course choose to go home as soon as possible.
