Return to the Small Fishing Village of 1982

Chapter 273 Rat Club

There is a local custom of offering sacrifices to stoves during the winter solstice, with small sacrifices on the winter solstice and big sacrifices on the New Year's Eve.

After making the glutinous rice balls, Lin Xiuqing cooked the glutinous rice balls and put them into four bowls. The stickers of Kitchen God and Kitchen Woman

There are also oranges and olives, heavenly gold ingots, three cups of tea, three cups of rice wine, and two flowers in the incense burner.

There is a saying: "The oranges are round and the olives are sharp. The Kitchen God and the Kitchen God will go to heaven if they eat them."

In the past few years, feudal superstitions were abolished, and the village dared not change anything. However, after the reform in the past few years, they have revived, and some old customs have slowly been picked up again.

After all the things to be sacrificed were arranged, Lin Xiuqing lit 8 incense sticks. After bowing three times, he inserted three sticks into the incense burner in front of the Kitchen God and the Kitchen God, still using his left hand to add incense.

Then I went to the door. There was a small bamboo pole inserted next to the stool with two bowls of glutinous rice balls. After bowing three times, three more bamboo poles were inserted.

The remaining two should be inserted by the door, one on the left and one on the right.

After she was done, she asked Ye Yaodong to set off firecrackers.

At this time, the sound of firecrackers also sounded intermittently in the village.

Next door, Ye Chenghai hurriedly took the job of setting off firecrackers, but he didn't expect that when he set off the firecrackers, he didn't run too far, and the firecrackers directly hit his clothes, burning a hole.

Now that it was over, the uproar began again.

"Fortunately, I didn't say I was going to set off firecrackers..." Ye Chenghu patted his chest and said thankfully.

Ye Yaodong patted the back of his head and said, "Come into the house, let's eat."

After the meal, Lin Xiuqing took the Tianjin Yuanbao that had been sacrificed for a while to the door to burn it in a discarded small iron pot. The ashes left after burning the Tianjin Yuanbao could be sold for money.

There will be burning on New Year's Eve and New Year's Eve.

After the ceremony was dark, and after all the incense was lit, Lin Xiuqing put everything away and brought the pot of ashes into the house.

The two children were waiting to eat, "Mom, can you eat the olives?"

They ate oranges every day some time ago, and they are no longer rare.

"Eat, eat."

"What about glutinous rice balls?"

"Put in some cabbage and shrimp later, cook them in the pot again, and give them to you as a midnight snack."

That's right...the glutinous rice balls are boiled and salted, and there is no filling inside. They are also delicious even if they are boiled and salted.

Both children nodded happily.

For two consecutive days, Ye Yaodong saw his two sisters-in-law looking worried.

Are you worried now?

Fortunately, he stopped them from continuing, otherwise they would not be able to eat or sleep now.

There have been a lot of gossips in the village in the past few days. Everyone is guessing what kind of business Ye Yaohong is doing outside. Why did he beat up his wife when he heard that he reported a household income of 10,000 yuan? He was beaten so badly that he couldn't wait to leave the next day?

Although there were many people speculating there before, the villagers' words were less questioning and more envious. Now only some people who invested money took the initiative to speak for Ye Yaohong.

I can't help but talk. They all invested money. If something happens, they will really cry.

Helping to talk can also bring some psychological comfort to myself, although in fact I feel quite unsure.

What's more likely is that everyone feels regretful in their hearts and still insists on it.

Ye Yaodong walked around the village as a morning exercise before going home for dinner. The postman happened to be delivering a newspaper to his door, so he took it casually. ….

During this time, he has developed a good habit of reading the newspaper every morning. Even if he goes to sea, he will read the day's newspaper for a while when he comes back in the evening.

As he walked into the house, he opened the newspaper. The eye-catching headlines surprised him every time.

"The first case of corruption during reform and opening up!"

"XXX death penalty!"

Is this the beginning of a crackdown on the "smuggling wave"?

After the reopening, the land that had been silent for a long time suddenly opened up. At that time, everything was waiting for things to be done, but people were full of expectations and expectations for the future. Therefore, in terms of living expenses, people no longer only considered food and clothing as before, but also began to pursue tricks. and trendy.

However, the embarrassing thing is that there was a special shortage of various daily necessities at that time, such as black and white TV sets, video recorders, watches, motorcycles, etc. Many of them could not be bought even if they had money, which allowed many criminals to see "business opportunities."

Therefore, the southeastern coast is going crazy.

A situation in which "workers don't work, farmers don't farm, students don't go to class, and cadres engage in self-interest." There are even pornographic videos being trafficked from overseas in some areas, and all kinds of (pornographic) crimes are growing rapidly secretly.

He paused and browsed briefly. It wasn't until Lin Xiuqing called him several times to have breakfast that he slowly walked to the table again.

"What are you looking at? You're still so fascinated."

"The first corruption case since the reform was opened to public hearing yesterday, and it will be reported directly to the People's Daily today. You eat first, and I take a look first."

Lin Xiuqing said nonchalantly: "What does it have to do with us? We are just ordinary people, why do you care so much? You haven't even read all the words, and you haven't left your hands on the newspaper all day long."

"Hey... don't make any noise, don't make any noise... let me see it first..."

He also deliberately turned his back to her.

But after a while he turned his head again and asked, "What is this word?"

Lin Xiuqing rolled her eyes, "Don't you still think I'm nagging you? Now you're asking me again."

"Oh, tell me, what is this word?"

"Extreme profits!"

"knew."

"Hey, wait..." Lin Xiuqing grabbed his sleeve again, "There is a saying circulating along the coast of Guangdong Province: No matter what new car arrives in Hong Kong today, it will appear on our streets tomorrow..."

"I'll watch first, you eat yours, and I'll show you later."

Ye Yaodong turned around and continued to read.

Lin Xiuqing had to feed the child first.

After he read it back and forth twice, he put the newspaper down and had no intention of reading the contents of other sections.

In his previous life, he only heard that smuggling was crazy along the coast in the past decade or so after the reform, but he didn't know how to read and didn't know much about current affairs, so he didn't know it was really so crazy.

No wonder Lin Jishang's family was so rich in his previous life, and he was the richest man in the village.

I guess I'll keep it a little tighter next time, right?

I also want to ask him to build a net hoisting machine, but I don’t know if it will work. At this time, heavy industry is mainly developed, turbines have not yet become popular, and small boat fishermen basically rely on manpower.

This can only be discussed later. Anyway, he will not go to sea before the year, and he will have to wait until at least the fifteenth day of the first lunar month after the new year.

Seeing huge profits, it is a lie not to be concerned about it. But he didn't have any big ambitions in the first place. He had no ambitions in his whole life. He only thought about his wife and children, and he would just settle down and be rich. ….

Greedy thoughts are only temporary.

Thinking about it, I have made quite a lot of money by relying on my hard work in the past few months. There is no need to take risks. If I get caught, I will be jailed.

Why bother? Could it be that he was reborn just to curl up yarn?

It's good to take the high road.

Although he is sometimes careless and a bit too serious, his outlook on life is still upright.

After Lin Xiuqing finished feeding the child, she picked up the newspaper next to him and read it. After reading it, she whispered: "Isn't that the one on Lin Jishang?"

She poked at the newspaper...

"Shh... Just know, don't say it."

She was very confused when he first sent watches to their house and talked nonsense to her man.

Then she saw that he always delivered sewing machines and bicycles in the middle of the night. She thought about it a thousand times, but she didn't ask.

"No wonder it involves so many people, it's all huge profits, and it's all done with silver dollars. It's only because supplies are so scarce now that many people have nowhere to spend their money."

"Well, just take a look, it's none of our business. It's probably the Chinese New Year, so we executed him before the New Year, and we will definitely crack down on him in the future."

Speaking of this, he thought of Ye Yaohong again.

I don’t know what he did with all the money he collected? You can't just hold it in your hand and use it?

"What did the man you mentioned, my cousin, do with so much money? Did he also go smuggling?"

"It's hard to say, let's take a look."

He took the newspaper back and planned to read other sections, but he saw a corner saying that a "rat club" had appeared in the Wanwan area, asking the people to be more vigilant and not to be deceived.

What the "Rat Club" fears most is that the capital chain is broken. As long as the capital chain is continuous, it can defraud new money to pay old debts, and the cycle starts over and over again, and the money keeps getting bigger and bigger.

There is only a small section in the newspaper, what’s the use?

Nowadays, there are many illiterates, and not everyone knows how to subscribe to newspapers. It is best to cheat the uneducated rural people out of their money.

Ye Yaohong's behavior is almost like that of a rat. Fortunately, he has a "smart" wife, otherwise there might be more unlucky people in the village.

After he understood it, he had no intention of reporting it.

It is estimated that if the village committee saw the rat club in this issue of the newspaper, they would have known about it. After thinking about it, they would have figured it out and knew that they had been deceived.

For a normal loan, who would give such a high interest rate?

Before, it was only a small-scale publicity campaign by Ye Ersao, and no one in the village committee paid much attention to it, and everyone was not that busy. However, the incident of the Ten Thousand Yuan Household in the past few days undoubtedly served as another advertisement for Ye Yaohong.

He was in the limelight, and with more people sending him money, there was certainly more talk in the village. And being on the cusp of such a storm, it was difficult for the village committee to even think about it.

As expected, someone from the village committee went to Ye Yaohong's house that afternoon to find out more about this matter, but was stopped by Ye Yaohong's mother, who had been the one stopping him from visiting in the past few days.

Of course, he didn't stop her in the end. As soon as the village committee member entered the room, he was unexpectedly startled by Mrs. Ye Datang who was lying in bed.

One look at the bruised and swollen face showed that he had been severely beaten. I heard that the eldest daughter had been taking care of her for the past two days. The eldest daughter standing by the bed also had one side of her face swollen.

I heard that a few children were running wild outside at that time, but they didn't know anything and were not beaten.

The injury that was originally covered by Ye Yaohong's mother was suddenly exposed.

Even the words "rat club" spread throughout the village. Some people who had invested money were so angry that they came to insult them one after another and forced them to pay back their money...

Sitting at home, Ye Yaodong could hear the whole village boiling. .

A glass of ice lemonade reminds you: Remember to save [] after reading. I will update it next time so you can continue reading. I look forward to continuing the exciting! You can also use the mobile version: , you can read it anytime and anywhere....
