Return to the Small Fishing Village of 1982

Chapter 219 Bags of Goods

Sister-in-law Ye and Sister-in-law Ye could not stand any longer. They threw the half-full sack in their hands onto the boat and rushed forward to help Mother Ye and curse her.

The sesame-faced woman’s daughters-in-law also gathered around, pushing and shoving, and spewing obscenities...

Women's war looks more exciting than Ye Yaodong and the others.

Ye Yaodong's three brothers, his father, Zhang Laoliu and his four sons were also spitting and cursing. Ah Zheng and Xiaoxiao also rolled up their sleeves and rushed forward...

"What do you want to do? What do you want to do..."

"You stepped on the horse, you want to fight, right? Come on, come on...bastard..."

Aguang and his father came over belatedly, and they were also around, and they all gathered around...

"What are you doing? Are you going to fight? I'm going to call a group of people over..."

Those enthusiastic villagers quickly grabbed this group of young and energetic young men, fearing that they would start fighting if they disagreed.

Relatives and acquaintances from both sides gathered more and more, and the circle became larger and larger, but they still mainly focused on trying to persuade and facilitate fights. With so many people, many of them were just relatives. After all, the village was so big.

There were people helping to break up the fight, but it was a bit difficult to start a fight together, so we could only push and shout and engage in verbal spats.

But women are not so easy to be kind to. It is this group of women who are the most interesting and the ones who intensify the conflicts the most.

Mother Ye shook off the person next to her and pushed the middle-aged woman with sesame face into the water. Just as she was about to rush up, she was pulled back by someone. She could only continue to curse with her mouth open... …

At this time, several village cadres also rushed in to help adjust, and the female cadres also went to the women's side to adjust.

Those who use hands are stopped, but those who use words are not so easy to stop.

The women on both sides stood there with their hips akimbo, their index fingers stretched out, pointing in the air and cursing. At this time, the women in the countryside were very tough, and the men were not as sharp-tongued as them.

In the end, the sesame-faced woman was taken back to change clothes by a group of relatives and friends, and the scolding subsided.

The middle-aged man had dirty hands and feet and lacked confidence. With the adjustment of the village cadres, he swore a few harsh words and went ashore carrying the starfish he had picked up.

The end came to an end on their side.

It was also coming to an end, and they said they took the octopus to the commune and cut it into pieces...

The other villagers watched the two dramas with gusto and did not bother to pick up starfish. This was not as important as watching the fun, not to mention that they couldn't stand bending down all the time, so they just stood up straight to watch the fun and rest.

After the two scoldings ended, the villagers turned their backs to the water and started picking up starfish.

At this time, there were not many starfish in the water near the shore. If you wanted to pick them up, you could only go towards the tide.

Many people have been soaking in the sea for too long, and their feet can't bear it. In addition, their waists are uncomfortable, so one after another people go to the shore to rest.

Ye Yaodong didn't plan to continue picking up anymore. He had already picked up half the boat in the morning, and he was not in the mood to continue now. With so many people,

He climbed directly onto the boat and planned to put all the starfish inside into sacks and lift them to the shore. This would be enough for him to work for a while.

After he brought another sack full of starfish to the shore, Lin Xiuqing anxiously gathered around and pulled him, "Why did you start just now? There were so many people on both sides gathering to scold and push them around. I couldn't help but I’m scared to death, I’m afraid you might start a fight.”

"What are you afraid of? I can't beat him to death. I spent a long time to pick up half of the boat, and he actually stole mine while he was in trouble."

"But it looks so scary, and my mother is even fighting with people..."

"It was just a push. The woman didn't stop. It's okay. I'll put the rest into a sack and carry it up."

"Stop picking it up. There are so many people down there, and most of the shallow water areas have been picked up..."

"If you don't want to pick it up, I just need to load up everything on the boat and move it to the shore."

"That's good."

Lin Xiuqing was afraid that they would have another conflict, and it would not be good to soak in the water for too long.

Father Ye and Mother Ye each picked up another full bag and were not ready to go down again after coming up. They already had a little rheumatism and the insides of their rain boots had already been soaked.

After they came up, they called Ye Huimei up as well. The other two sons and daughter-in-law ignored them. They couldn't stand it. They would come up after picking up enough, no need to say anything.

"How many bags did Dongzi pick up?"

"There are two full bags here."

"Well, we've brought them all up, so we don't have to pick them up anymore. We'll save ourselves from having to fish in troubled waters. It's hard to pick up the ones at the back." Mother Ye looked at Father Ye again, "You can go to the boat and help him load them together. Hurry up. "

"Well, okay, let's carry these starfish to the car first. I see that the doors to the collection point are open. Go and ask, how much does it cost to collect so many starfish? You can just push them over with a cart later, so you don't have to lift them."

"Hey, good." Ye Mu happily looked at the several sacks of starfish on the trolley.

The three of them picked it up, and they arrived earlier than the others, and the number was larger than the others.

There were suddenly too many people coming from behind, and everyone couldn’t pick it up as fast as at the beginning, and the more people came to the back, the harder it was to pick it up.

Mother Ye asked Lin Xiuqing and Ye Huimei to look at the trolleys. She ran to the purchase point, but she didn't see Ah Cai. She looked around the shore again and saw him squatting there chatting with others.

Just as I was about to ask, I heard people around me discussing, saying that for two cents a pound, everyone would make a lot of money today. Normally, these women would only earn 1 yuan from weaving nets at home from dawn to dusk all day long.

There was no need to ask now, Ye Mu happily ran back to tell them the good news.

The aunt and sister-in-law were both very happy.

Ye Yaodong and Ye's father carried sacks ashore one after another. Aguang and his father had nothing to do and came out to join in the fun and picked up a few and helped them pack them.

More people go faster.

While they were busy working, some villagers could not bear the immersion in the seawater and stopped one after another. Some even came over to watch them load the goods after taking a break.

"When did A Dong discover it? He actually picked up so many. Our whole family worked together to pick up only one or two bags."

Ye Yaodong glanced at the speaker, who was the neighbor next door to the old house. He explained casually, "I came out to watch the tide in the morning and was wondering if I could collect a ground cage. Who knew that there were all starfish here at the pier."

"I'm so lucky. I discovered it so early, picked up so many, and made a fortune again..."

"Who says it's not the case? It took a few more hours to pick up than others. No wonder there are so many..."

"Ye Laosan, your family seems to be getting more and more prosperous these days. In just a few months, the family has two more boats. In the future, the son-in-law's family will also have a boat, and the whole family will make money there. It's amazing... …Incredible…”

Father Ye's face glowed with joy, "This is all due to the efforts of several children. Your family is not bad either. I heard that you have bought a bicycle and a play box. When will you take them out and put them at the door for everyone to listen to..."

When he praised Father Ye like this, the smile on his face deepened, but he said humbly: "Oh, it's just a play box, not a TV set. What's so rare about it? Your eldest nephew is the one who's promising. I heard that the business is booming. Many people from the village came to his house this morning to inquire about the situation and ask him to buy shares..."

Ye Yaodong was surprised when he heard this. Is the stall so big? Not only are they targeting relatives, but the villagers are not prepared to let him go either?

In his previous life, he had never heard of anyone from the village investing in his place. Could it be that Second Sister-in-law Ye’s generous investment made him see the business opportunities for the villagers and prepare him to do something big?

"Uncle, how did you know that the villagers wanted to buy shares?"

"Didn't your second sister-in-law go back to her parents' house to promote it? This morning, the news spread all over the village. Your cousin's business is stable, the interest is high, and the payment is on time..."

Gotta...his cousin found a good spokesperson!

No wonder it's different.

Who would push the money that comes to your door for free?

Father Ye said doubtfully: "You don't know that your second sister-in-law invested money?"

"I know, I don't think it's reliable, but they want to make this money." Ye Yaodong shrugged, suddenly thought of something, and quickly told his father, "Don't let your mother invest money, don't believe it."

"She was also mumbling about it in the morning. After lunch, she came to your place and said she wanted to ask your second sister-in-law..."

Ye Yaodong couldn't help but hold his forehead, his second sister-in-law was so powerful!

"Don't listen to the second sister-in-law. She only got one month's interest. She gave me 500 yuan and only received 25 yuan. She thinks she is so reliable. Dad, do you think you can get 25 yuan in installments every month? How many months will it take to get the 500 yuan back? What if he runs away in the past few months? Think about it..."

After a brief mention, he continued to pretend to be a starfish, and Father Ye also frowned...

The neighbor of the old house also frowned and said: "It seems unreliable..."

Aguang rolled his eyes aside. He knew it was unreliable as soon as he heard it, and he was just someone who was blinded by interests.

I couldn't help but interjected: "It's unreliable even if you think about it with your butt. If you use your own money to pay you interest, who knows how many months it will last? No matter how rich the boss is, if he pays you so much interest every month, It should also feel painful, right? How much is the interest rate on loan sharks? Besides, have you seen what kind of business they do?"

"Then I have to talk to your mother when I get back, and let her talk to your second sister-in-law..."

"You stop my mother, what the second sister-in-law is saying...it's hard to persuade the damned one, it's up to you."

If you talk too much, people will think you are blocking her way to make money!

If his father hadn't said that his mother was also moved, he wouldn't have wanted to talk to his father about it.

"Why are we talking? We are all a family..."

Ye Yaodong pursed his lips and stopped talking and continued to do his work.

After they loaded all the starfish on the boat and carried them ashore, there were not many villagers in the water, and the tide was slowly rising.

There are only some whose families are in extremely difficult circumstances and are reluctant to leave. They only care about how many cents they can earn and how many cents they can earn.

There was also a long queue at the purchasing point, where everyone was happily discussing how much they could sell for, hoping that this kind of thing would happen more often in the future.

This is much more earned than going to the dock to carry goods for a day. It is easy and the money comes in quickly.
