Chapter 488 Fivefold
Ye Yaodong briefly asked for basic information before thanking him and going back.
Fortunately, their village is not exclusive. They are also at the junction of Fujian and Zhejiang. The fishing boats that come and go in the surrounding waters are from both Fujian and Zhejiang provinces. Occasionally, if they encounter an accident, they will stop in the towns around them.
Moreover, some villages also speak Hokkien dialect, which is slightly different in tone from the real Hokkien dialect they speak in southern Fujian.
It's a pity that their village doesn't speak Hokkien, they speak barbaric dialect.
The languages spoken at the junction of their areas are quite mixed, including Minnan dialect, Man dialect, local dialect, Wenzhou dialect, and many dialects.
He returned to his team and told his father briefly about the situation in the village, and said: "Someone here collects whole jellyfish, which costs only 2 cents each. It is not cost-effective. There is no way to cut them up and sell them separately." It’s a good deal. After being divided, jellyfish heads cost 5 cents per pound, jellyfish skins cost 4 cents, jellyfish brains cost 2 cents, and dried jellyfish blood is said to cost 11 yuan. However, the jellyfish shrank seriously after being divided.”
"Really? Is it so expensive?" Father Ye's heart skipped a beat, "Let's wait until Chen Jia Nian comes back and we'll see. Sell the ones on the boat first and see how much they can sell for."
Ye Yaodong nodded, "We'll have a look when he comes back. Then we'll see if we want to rent a house in the village. There must be a charter for how to arrange it."
Fortunately, he set off at night. If he arrived now, it would still be noon, so there would be plenty of time and he could still make arrangements.
He asked Father Ye to guard the beach, and they dragged the jellyfish to the shore one by one in batches. After only sixteen or seventeen trips, they dragged all the jellyfish to the shore.
Father Ye was also counting there, "There are 65 jellyfish in total."
"These are big. Most of them weigh thirty or forty pounds. The big ones weigh sixty or seventy pounds. There are only two of them weighing more than ten pounds. One should weigh over three thousand pounds."
】
"should have."
"Are you going to kill and divide them right away, Dongzi? We also caught a basket of fish, shrimps and crabs. There isn't much, only about 30 kilograms."
Ye Yaodong looked at the people on the beach who were still dragging fishing nets, and the women on the shore who were busy slaughtering and cutting up. He didn't see Chen Jianian's shadow. After thinking about it, he nodded simply.
"Divide it up, and put those overseas goods aside first."
If you don't divide it, just leave it there and wait, otherwise it will die soon. It's better to divide it while waiting for Chen Jiannian to come back.
Everyone immediately got on the boat to get tools and knives, and brought down the stacked baskets and cut them up on the spot.
Neither the three of them nor Ye's father had ever done this kind of work before. They were very skilled and their speed was incomparable to Ye Yaodong's.
This large jellyfish is no better than a small jellyfish. It takes him two or three minutes to finish one, but they may not be able to finish one in ten minutes.
Fortunately, it didn't take long for Chen Jianian to jog back.
"I got in touch. The tractors from their factory are collecting goods in other villages. We agreed that the next trip will be sent to this village to collect our goods."
Ye Yaodong was immediately happy. It would be great to be able to sell it smoothly.
Father Ye's heart was temporarily put back in his stomach, and he said with a smile: "Then you can wait on the shore. We will start to divide the new ones now."
"Okay, anyway, we just got in touch, so I shouldn't be here that soon. I have nothing to do, so I'll help you guys." Chen Jianian rolled up his sleeves and went to get the knife.
He didn't have gloves, so Ye Yaodong handed him the jellyfish with the poisonous and stinging whiskers removed.
Although the villagers in this village were curious that there was a boat from another village, everyone was very busy and no one had time to care about them. Moreover, they also kept to themselves and did not move around or affect others. They just stayed where they were. land division.
Ye Yaodong and the others had work to do, and their attention was diverted from thinking about when the tractor from the factory would come to pull goods.
It wasn't until they finished cutting up the jellyfish that they suddenly realized that the tractor hadn't arrived yet.
Chen Jianian wiped the sweat from his forehead and reassured: "It shouldn't be that fast. The tractor has been collected outside and has to be sent back to the factory before it can come out. Let's wait and see."
Ye Yaodong looked at his watch. It was already three o'clock in the afternoon. It had been 3 hours since they docked. He was going to wait for another hour. If they didn't come again, he would ask the people in his village about the food and accommodation tonight. Solve it first.
Originally, if he had enough time, he would also like to find a village where Minnan can be spoken, so that communication can be more convenient if he lives for a long time, and they all have a common language, and they can be more friendly when going out.
They waited in the shade for more than half an hour, killing all the fish by the way, before they saw a tractor appear on the shore and drive down the beach.
Everyone looked at it hopefully, and Father Ye asked excitedly: "Is it this tractor?"
Chen Jianian was a little unsure, "I'll go up and ask."
After the tractor came down to the beach, it stopped there. All of them were waiting in place, except Chen Jianian who ran up to ask.
After a while, Chen Jianian trotted over with a smile, and the tractor followed him.
"It's this car!" He ran closer and said, "It's this car. I just went over and asked for the name of the factory and the driver's name. They all matched. Let's go to the ship to unload the goods."
Ye Yaodong said with a smile: "Let's weigh the divided goods first? After weighing them and carrying them to the car, we will go to the ship to carry the remaining goods."
"Can."
"Then weigh these first."
Two people got off the car and also spoke in Minnan dialect.
Everyone's eyes lit up instantly, and Father Ye said happily: "You also speak Hokkien. What a coincidence, it's convenient if you speak the same language."
"Yes, the words spoken in these eight villages are different. It's better to say the same thing. Come on, let's say it first."
The tones are different, but it doesn't affect their communication. They can generally speak with no problem and can be understood.
They pulled out a large wooden pole scale from the back of the tractor.
When going out, it is more convenient to carry a wooden pole scale. The wooden pole scale they carry can weigh 400 kilograms. Two people can carry the scale and weigh it several times and add up.
Ye Yaodong could only roughly estimate the weight of the jellyfish. Only after the jellyfish head and skin were weighed did he know the weight with certainty.
The total number of jellyfish heads and jellyfish skins that were harvested and divided was 928 kilograms and 776 kilograms. After removing the useless internal organs, jellyfish heads and jellyfish brains, it is unknown how much they have shrunk.
The price is the same as what he just found out, jellyfish head is 5 cents, jellyfish skin is 4 cents, but the one they dragged back just now sold for 77 yuan and 4 cents.
When Ye Yaodong and his son heard what they had calculated there, they were so happy that their mouths were split open. If the introduction commission was deducted, there would still be more than 73 yuan, and there was still jellyfish blood and jellyfish brains that had not been boiled.
Just this casual catch is enough for them to pay for gas and hire workers, and they can still earn a lot.
Father Ye smiled so hard that he couldn't close his mouth and said quickly: "Our boat is over there. There are still some on the boat. They have been simply processed. The jellyfish heads and jellyfish skins have been pickled with thin salt."
"Okay, pull it up first to see how much salt is in it, and then deduct it."
Everyone immediately started moving and was full of energy.
The villagers who were processing the fish next to them came over curiously and asked which factory it was from. They also took a look at the amount they had just caught, but didn't say anything.
Their goods are also collected by fixed introducers.
But back in the team, they were discussing who was on Ye Yaodong's boat and making guesses.
There were more than 20 bamboo baskets stacked on the boat, and there were more than ten tied nylon bags without baskets. They worked in pairs and slowly lifted them off the boat.
When Father Ye and Chen Jianian saw that the two people had been waiting for a long time, they looked a little impatient. They hurriedly comforted the person holding cigarettes and giving cans to the person giving them cans.
"You have to be ready next time. We are pressed for time and have to go to other villages to receive goods. Originally, we didn't come here today."
Father Ye and Chen Jianian hurriedly laughed with him.
Ye Yaodong turned his back to them and walked into the sea, rolling his eyes fiercely, who knows when you will come? Not sure about coming? If they don't come, they will have to put it back up when they take it off, which will be very troublesome.
After going back and forth for more than an hour, they unloaded all the goods, including the jellyfish brains and jellyfish blood.
After checking the salt content inside, they continued to follow the stupid method. The two of them carried the scale and weighed it, and the weights were added up again and again.
There was a lot of goods in this wave, and it took them more than an hour to weigh all the goods.
The jellyfish head weighs 2,262 kilograms, the jellyfish skin is 1,585 kilograms, the jellyfish brain is 321 kilograms, and the jellyfish blood is 32 kilograms and 6 taels, which is really the same as at home.
The jellyfish head and jellyfish skin have been marinated in salt and have shrunk even more, leaving only 1/3 of the weight.
After weighing it, they fiddled with the abacus to calculate the price.
The abacus was being fiddled with, and both father and son were looking forward to it.
"The jellyfish head is 113 yuan and 1 cent, the jellyfish skin is 63 yuan and 4 cents, the jellyfish brain is 6 yuan and 4 cents, and the jellyfish blood is 358 yuan and 6 cents. The total is 541 yuan, 5 cents and 2 cents. After deducting the weight of the salt, it is calculated as 520."
Ye Yaodong smiled widely when he heard this, and his father was also very happy.
A total of just over 100 yuan was spent on the principal, which directly doubled it five times. Unfortunately, because the jellyfish was marinated in salt, it shrank by 2/3. Otherwise, if it had only shrunk by half, it would be no problem to double it seven times.
Father Ye couldn't help but feel lucky. Fortunately, there was no strong objection at the time. This trip was indeed the right one, and it also caught up with the flood season, so he could continue to make money.
The other three people couldn't help but be stunned. I heard that they paid for it for one penny, but after the deal, it changed hands five times. Isn't it too much?
I really made money for Dongzi!
This trip can almost catch up to the previous production brigade's annual salary.
Ye Yaodong habitually pulled out two more cigarettes for each of them and said with a smile: "Thank you very much, comrades for your hard work, when can you get the money?"
"In two days, just ask your introducer for it." The weigher took away the blue printing paper under the list, tore off two sheets and gave one to each of them.
"Okay, the goods are all loaded into the car, so we'll leave first."
Chen Jianian said quickly: "I will go with you and meet my friends."
"Fine."
He looked at Ye Yaodong again, "I'll go with you to the factory and come over later. You should stay in the village at night, right?"
Ye Yaodong nodded, "Yes, we will rent a house later and settle down first at night."
If someone follows him to the factory to have a look, they can feel more at ease. As for whether Chen Jianian will run away, he is not worried about it.
The total of the two orders is only 600 yuan. The flood season will last for another month or two. They can still fish. Moreover, he will call his two brothers to come over. Who knows if the introduction fee for him will be increased by then? many?
In terms of sustainable development, what about next year? And the monk who ran away couldn't escape the temple.
