Chapter 328 Machine to Exchange Money

He instantly became energetic and happily greeted Lin's father and mother, "Grandpa and grandma, take us out to sea at night to catch squid, and let you stay for a few more days."

"What are you going to sea for? Don't mess around. Don't cause trouble to your brother-in-law. He is tired from going to sea every day. Don't mess with it..." Mother Lin frowned when she heard this, for fear that her child would be too noisy. , causing trouble to other people's homes for nothing.

Father Lin also glared angrily, "What did I tell you before I left? I told you to be good and obedient..."

"Hey...it's none of Ayuan's business, I was the one who suggested it."

Ye Yaodong saw that Lin Guangyuan was scolded as soon as he ran over, so he quickly stepped forward to explain that it was just a daily teasing, but he couldn't really let him go back and get beaten for no reason.

"It's been the flood season for squid recently. We can't catch any squid every day, and there are a lot of them stranded on the beach, which makes it easier for the seabirds. I thought you would come here by chance, and I would take you out to sea to pick up some squid and bring them back or maybe No matter if you sell it for a little money, you can pick it up for hundreds of catties."

Father Lin and Mother Lin were both surprised, "A hundred pounds?"

"Can you pick up a hundred catties? So many squid?"

"Maybe it's more than that. There are too many seabirds on the island, and most of them are picked up and eaten by them."

Mother Lin was speechless, "My dear, I can pick up hundreds of kilograms of it just by picking it up. So much, how much can it be sold for?"

"A few days ago, it was more than 30 cents per pound. It was just in time for the flood season, so I asked Ayuan to ask you. If the quantity is large, the price will drop again. The price will be different day by day. It depends on the situation!"

With the adults of the Lin family following them, they can rest assured that they can take Lin Guangyuan with them.

Seeing that he has been quite well-behaved recently and worked very hard some time ago, I might as well fulfill his little wish.

"That's a lot. It's better if you go to the beach!" Mother Lin looked at Father Lin excitedly, "How about we stay here all night?"

Father Lin was also very excited when he heard this, "Isn't it too much trouble? You guys should be very busy too, so it would be bad if I add trouble to you. A Yuan's presence here will keep you busy these days..."

"How could it be? This boy is quite good. He even helped us dig up sandworms and went up the mountain to cut firewood and dig bamboo shoots. He was very diligent and helped us a lot."

[In view of the general environment, Ye Yaodong praised a few words, and Lin Guangyuan suddenly became clear after the rain, smiling happily.

It's better for my brother-in-law. When his grandfather and grandmother heard that he asked them to stay, they scolded him without asking, which made him so angry.

Mother Ye also smiled and helped and said: "Ayuan is quite trouble-free and well-behaved. He also plays well with his brothers. We can let him play here for a few more days."

"If you are not afraid of hard work, you can go out to sea with Dongzi at night to pick up some squid and make some money."

Father Lin said politely: "We are all used to working, so why are we afraid of hard work? I am just afraid of causing trouble to you..."

"Where can there be trouble? Those squids are eaten by seabirds, and we feel very sorry for them. We just pick up more when they come." Father Ye also persuaded him to keep them.

"There are still empty rooms in the old house. Some are moving and some are getting married. There are plenty of rooms now. You can stay here for two days without any worries."

"Yes, yes, yes, don't worry about not having a place to live. There are plenty of houses..."….

Lin Guangyuan also nodded, looking at Father Lin and Mother Lin expectantly, "Yes, yes, let's go pick squids too, otherwise my uncle and the others won't have time to pick them up, and it will be a waste. Let's pick up more and take them back or sell them for money."

Father Lin and Mother Lin were also very excited. Seeing Ye Yaodong's family smiling and inviting them to stay, they accepted the invitation.

Lin Guangyuan was so happy that he almost jumped up.

Ye Chenghai and others couldn't help but look envious, "It's great. You can go out to sea now. I haven't even been on a boat."

"Hey, why don't you beg my sister-in-law?"

"Don't think about it. My parents don't take me with me, and I still call me uncle. My legs will be broken."

Sister-in-law Ye also glanced at him sideways, "It's good that you know, why don't you go to school? You've already eaten lunch, why are you still staying at home?"

Ye Chenghai pursed his lips, secretly glared at the back of his mother's head, and then waved to a group of brothers and sisters, "Let's go, let's go, there's no hope, let's go to school."

After Father Lin and Mother Lin decided to stay, after seeing Ah Qing and the children, they also asked them about the recent situation of the cargo at sea, and also helped bundle firewood.

Ye Yaodong told everything he knew and talked eloquently, which made the two elders feel much more satisfied with their son-in-law.

While they were chatting, a machine repairman from the village came to the door.

Ye Yaodong stood up and greeted him, "Is the machine repaired?"

The machine repairman smiled sheepishly and said, "It's fixed. The repair shop is quite busy at this time, so it's been delayed until now."

"It doesn't matter, as long as it can be fixed."

At that time, the machine from the sea had just been brought back, and he happened to hear that someone had come to check it. Ah Qing was anxious and started it immediately. No one in the family had time to take care of the machine.

After waiting for a day or two, everything inside and outside was taken care of. After all the work, he had time to call someone over to take a look. It turned out that the tools were not complete and he could not repair it on the spot, so he had to carry it back to the master.

Unexpectedly, 20 days have passed since I brought it back, and it was repaired and sent over. Fortunately, he was not in a hurry.

"Is this a redundant machine? You didn't even rush me."

Ye Yaodong said angrily: "What else? If it weren't for this useless old machine, I could come to your door every day to kill you."

"Haha... I think so."

"How much does it cost to repair? Do you think how much this machine of mine will be worth if I sell it?"

There is already one on the boat. This one is useless to him and has no use. It is better to sell it and save it from rusting.

"Take 10 yuan. This is not easy to repair. All the parts have to be dismantled and cleaned from the inside out. After all, they have been soaked in sea water. After cleaning, the broken parts need to be removed. It took a lot of work to replace them all, and it took me several days to complete the repairs.”

"Then how much will this machine be worth if sold?" Father Ye also asked with concern.

"It cost 200 yuan. After all, it's been repaired and it's still running."

"Just 200?"

"That's about right. It's quite high."

"Then I'll sell it to you, do you want it?"

"Ah?" The master glared, "You don't have the money to pay in kind?"

Ye Yaodong rolled his eyes, "It's only ten yuan, am I that poor? I just thought it would be useless to keep it on hand, or sell it. Do you want it? If not, I will ask others."….

The master hesitated for a moment, thought about it, and nodded, "That's okay, you can sell it to me, at your price..."

"200, what you just said! Do you still want to go back on your word?"

"No, what I just said is worth this price. If you want to recycle it to me, it must not be at this price. I will definitely make money when I resell it. Otherwise, why would I take this big lump like you here?"

"Then how much did you say?"

"160."

Ye Yaodong glared.

The master quickly added: "After deducting the repair fee of 160, you still have to pay me ten yuan for the repair fee."

"Then you are too much of a girl, right? You still need to earn at least 30 yuan."

"Don't I also have to bear the risk? What if I can't sell it and it ends up in my hands?"

"How could it not be sold?"

"Why is it impossible? Not everyone can afford a machine. How can you afford to buy and install those small wooden boats?"

"180 minus the repair fee of 10 yuan, you give me 170, or I will sell it myself. If you spread the word, someone will buy it. It doesn't matter if it takes a long time."

"165, just 165, as long as it works, forget it if it doesn't work." The master was unwilling and yelled a few words, "It's very laborious to move around. It's just to earn some hard-earned money. You still have to do it." Counteroffer. I obviously made you ten yuan, but in the end I still gave you so much..."

"Oh, let's get it to 165. Stop nagging. You'll make a profit if you sell it. Hurry up and give me the money."

Ye Yaodong didn't bother to waste any words. Anyway, he picked it up for free, so he could sell it for so much.

This time it was the master's turn to say angrily, "Why are you so anxious? Who can put so much money in his pocket for nothing? I will give it to you when I get back. You can also come with me and help move it."

"OK, no problem."

Ye Yaodong followed him again and then came back with the money.

Mother Ye said with satisfaction: "165 is quite a lot. This machine I picked up for free can be sold for this much."

Sister-in-law Ye said with envy: "Any machine you pick up can be sold for one or two hundred. No wonder those people in Luzhou Island like big ships to bully small ships and move machines."

"People are doing it, God is watching, and those people will be in bad luck sooner or later."

Sister-in-law Ye smiled and said, "This machine that Dongzi found from the sea couldn't be from the shipwreck on Luzhou Island some time ago, right?"

Sister-in-law Ye is still smart and quick to react, but of course Ye Yaodong will not admit it.

Father Ye also knew not to admit it, "Who said it belongs to them? There are many accidents at sea. It's fine if you can sell it for money, no matter which ship it is on."

"Well, let me take the money into the house first."

Lin Xiuqing had heard the movement at the door a long time ago, but she could only lie down and couldn't go out.

As soon as she saw Ye Yaodong come in, she immediately asked: "What did you say one hundred, six hundred and eighty?"

"The machine was sold for 165. On the day you were born, we dragged it back from the sea. We sent it to be repaired at that time and it was repaired only now."

"It was still worth repairing and selling it for a lot of money. When I asked the dealer who collected junk at that time, they said they could only sell it for a few yuan or a handful of hair. Fortunately, it can still be repaired."

"Is it so valuable?" Lin Xiuqing had long been accustomed to him saying a few swear words from time to time, and said nonchalantly: "It's good. I've made a lot of money again. Let's put the money in the drawer first."

Ye Yaodong complied, then sat on the edge of the bed and said to her in a flattering manner: "This is the money you picked up for free. Why don't you use it to buy a theater box? We have a watch, a sewing machine, a bicycle, and three rotations. It's just a ring. Buy it." Come just in time to listen to the radio drama for the old lady."

"You are so filial."

This was not a small amount of money, not a pair of dentures, a few pieces of clothing, or a small amount of money spent on food and drink. Lin Xiuqing was a little reluctant to part with it. She had always been frugal in the past, so how could she be willing to part with it.

"The old lady has been suffering for half her life, and she has never had a few good days in her old age. It is only in the past two years that she has had a better life. Buy it, buy her one, so that she will not be bored, otherwise she will spend the whole day Sit at the door to bask in the sun and take a nap..."

It looked like he was waiting to die, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.

Buying a radio for her to listen to will also keep her entertained and her mental outlook may be better.

If you feel better, you can live longer.

"It's just money you picked up anyway. Don't feel bad. It only costs a hundred yuan to buy a cheap one. There's still some leftover."

"It's up to you."

Ye Yaodong smiled and kissed her cheek happily, "Then it's settled!"

She could only comfort herself by saying that it was just money she picked up for free.

Lin Xiuqing turned her head and said, "I haven't washed my face or brushed my teeth for more than 20 days. Is it disgusting if you can kiss me?"

"It's okay, don't I have to please you? How can I dislike it?"

"Go, go, go away.".
