Chapter 569 The Fishing Boat Docked

One of them is fat and the other is skinny, one is tall and the other is short. They are comparable to the fat and thin Tuo Tuo in Wei Xiaobao. They sit there chatting and bragging about each other, and the style of the painting looks quite harmonious.

Ye Yaodong felt that although Ah Cai was a little slippery, he really knew a lot.

Ah Cai also felt that although he was full of nonsense and nonsense, his words were quite interesting and his chatting was interesting and not boring at all.

"Hey, after the reform in the past few years, you must have made a lot of money, right? Last year, our village wanted to build a household worth ten thousand yuan, get a medal, and be in the limelight. Why didn't we ask you to join Agui and the others?"

Ah Cai cracked the melon seeds and glanced at him, "I don't have any property at all. I just have a broken house. What's the point of looking for me? Choosing a household worth ten thousand yuan means I want to find someone who works hard, endures hardships, and diligently creates income. , the kind of person who can set an example for the people of the country, and then promote the glory of labor, work to get rich, and so on."

"Where is the place for people like us who just sit there and do soft work all day long? If I could, why is the country still cracking down on speculation now? Just promote it. And I only earn some hard-earned money. What about three melons and two taels? How can you get a household with more than 10,000 Yuan for jujube?"

"Is it none of my business whether there is a boat or not, money or money, land or land, industry or industry?"

"Brother Hong only aroused the interest of the county leaders because your sister-in-law bumped into her in front of so many people. In fact, he is not suitable."

Ye Yaodong nodded, what he said was right.

"You've got a lot to say about reforming this second-rate guy, and now you look like you're working hard..."

"Get out of here, I'm a good young man!"

"By the way, why didn't you go to sea today?"

"My father-in-law came to the house and didn't go to sea."

"So sensible?"

Ye Yaodong rolled his eyes at him and looked aside, just in time to see another ship coming back, "A ship is about to dock. Get up and work, don't just brag..."

Ah Cai stood up and stretched his neck to take a look, "The one next door, I didn't take him in... Oh, there is a boat behind, and that boat also belongs to Lao Pei. If they haven't come over yet, you can get up and help me with the work. ”

Ye Yaodong looked at the sea and then at the village. Uncle Pei happened to be pushing the cart over, and he continued to sit down and eat his melon seeds.

"Uncle Pei is here."

Father Pei pushed the car forward but had a bad look on his face.

"What's up, uncle, your second boat is back again."

Father Pei took a small basket from the trolley and showed it to them. "I thought it was difficult to kill the toad fish, so I asked two people to kill it. The two daughters at home asked them to kill the miscellaneous fish, but they took the washbasin." And a big swallow pomfret came out."

"ah!"

"Uh...hiding another one?"

"Isn't it? It almost made me angry to death. No other boat has ever done this. Some time ago, we caught a large yellow croaker weighing more than two kilograms. You took it out generously. You friends are not very good at this. How many days have you been working?"

Ye Yaodong pursed his lips, "I'm just asking, why were you so reluctant to take those baskets of fish back to you? I didn't take too many worthless things to begin with. Is this the case? It turns out there's something fishy about it."

"Let's weigh this fish first and wait until A Guang comes back."

Ah Cai took his basket and chuckled, "I still have to find someone who is honest and has a better reputation."

"Let's talk about it when we get back tonight."

Ah Cai added: "Then there's no need to share this fish. You can just collect it after weighing it. People are thinking of hiding it for themselves, so you don't need to take it out and share it."

Father Pei nodded.

Ye Yaodong thought, if you want to build a ship again, you have to keep your eyes open when looking for people, but you can't rely on nepotism. Uncle Pei himself has loopholes.

I don’t know if today’s trash fish is the only one with good things hidden in it. If it were hidden several times, it would be a huge loss.

If he wanted to buy another boat, he would have to think carefully about it. He couldn't put all the money into other people's pockets and make wedding clothes for others.

Or when the time comes, you can leave his father at home. His father is getting older, so you can let him stay at home to collect the fish.

His cousins ​​are all pretty reliable, and Brother Aseng is pretty good too. You can hire them as boatmen when the time comes.

After Pei's father was forced to improve his memory, when the second boat came in, he checked it very carefully this time. By the way, he told the boss of the boat what had just happened and beat it.

The boss of the ship, Dalian, repeatedly promised that he would never do such a thing. A win-win situation for everyone would only lead to long-term cooperation. He would never cut off his own financial resources because his family still counted on this ship.

Father Pei also kept all the fish that could be kept on the boat that could not be sold for a price, including miscellaneous fish. He just asked the boss of the boat to keep whatever fish he wanted and take some back as he saw fit. He was not a stingy person.

The cargo of the two ships, except for the one they had just taken home, was piled up in a large open space on the shore. There were more than a dozen baskets full of them. Ye Yaodong was stunned to see them.

"Some time ago, we said there was a shortage of trawl cargo. Where has it been missing recently? Is it almost as much as rice?"

"That's an exaggeration. Is it the same as rice?" Father Pei said with a smile: "It's been happening from time to time. No one can say. It's often in stock and often out of stock. I heard that there was no stock some time ago, so I changed it recently. We found a place to catch fish.”

"It's just right. It's good to have the goods. You can keep some more and go home to dry them and give them to me."

"Okay, okay, I heard this morning that you collected a lot of dried fish yesterday. Lao Lin sold it at a good price and made a lot of money. I was still hesitant about drying some of it? I didn't expect you to come over in the afternoon."

"You have so many boats. By then, all the money will be earned by you, and I will have to work in vain."

"I'm joking. Recently, there are not as many trawl goods as sticky nets, which means that they need to spend extra money to stick the nets. They are not willing to pay the cost. For trawling, I have ready-made fishing nets and net lifters here, so there is no need to spend any more money. , you can save a little.”

Ye Yaodong nodded casually and looked at the sea again, "My dad and the others don't know what time they will be back. It's already getting dark."

"It should be almost done, right? I've weighed everything. Please help me take a look. I'll have to do it a few more times."

"Okay, go ahead."

After waiting at the dock for another half hour, even Xiaoxiao and Azheng's boat came back, but he didn't see his own boat, so he could only wait patiently.

It wasn't until the sky darkened and his mother came out to wait together for a long time that her own boat was visible in the distance.

At this time, he finally realized how Aqing and his mother felt when they couldn't wait for them to come home all day long.

It was completely dark, and there were only a few flashlights on the boat in the distance. They were far apart. Don't ask him how he knew it was his own boat, because basically all the boats in the village and the next village had docked, and only His boat is not available yet.

He and his mother agreed that what was coming back now was his family's boat.

"But I'm finally back! I have to wait until dark every time, so I can't go earlier. If it's not possible, I might as well go earlier!" Mother Ye stretched her neck and muttered.

"Who can control the emergency situation at sea well? You still have to work at a certain speed, and when you go out, you have to check whether the tide has risen. Where can you go to sea at any time you want?"

Mother Ye glanced at him, "Can I not know? I just said this, and you have to refute everything."

"The truth is, I won't let anyone tell me."

Mother Ye didn't argue with him, "I also wanted to come back early today to help kill fish, but now I don't know what time I have to kill fish tonight."

"We'll see how many there are later, otherwise we can just invite one or two more people."

"It's as convenient as I told you. If you hire two more people, it will cost one or two more people."

"Then you can work less, right? If you keep the lights on, the electricity bill will be high, right? Finish working early and turn off the lights early to rest."

Ye Mu didn't refute now.

The boat slowly docked, and after confirming that it belonged to their family, the mother and son hurriedly greeted it.

Ye Mu had just been nagging on the shore, so she didn't nag her about being late when she got on the boat. Looking at the ship full of goods, she was just happy.

"I gained quite a lot today."

Father Ye's weathered face also had a smile on his face, "It's okay, but the fishing nets blown by the wind always get entangled in the machine and are difficult to untie. The delivery was a little slow, so the delay is now, and the fishing nets are broken. Two of them, the holes are too big to be used."

Ye Yaodong glanced around and saw that the harvest was okay, and said: "If it breaks, just break it. There are still so many, so there is no need to mend them for the time being. It will save you having to collect them every day before coming back after dark."

A Guang came over with a big basket at this time, "We also stuck a big squid, which weighs more than ten kilograms. It can be used to make rice dumplings during the Winter Solstice."

Ye Yaodong shone his flashlight over it, and immediately looked through it with interest. It was a diamond-fin squid, a very common type of large squid that is usually fished under deep sea lights.

This is a squid with a strong phototaxis, so every night, it will follow the light and float to the sea surface or mid-water.

Basically, it catches fish or crustaceans. Of course, it is also the prey of many large carnivorous fish. Because of its large size and weight, it cannot swim very fast.

They also like to put the meat of this big squid in rice dumplings, which is relatively fresh.

"It's really big. It's just right for each person to cut into a piece and make rice dumplings. I saved money on it."

Ye Yaosheng smiled and said: "I just made a bet with A Guang. He bet that you would stay and eat by yourself. I said that if it is so big, I will sell it for two or three yuan. It seems that he understands you."

Aguang grinned, "It's necessary. We grew up wearing crotchless pants. I wanted to keep them and eat them. He definitely wanted to keep them and eat them too. Anyway, he was going to buy them in the next few days, so why not eat them himself? Is it fresher? It’s just as good as this squid.”

"Fresh is fresh, it's so big, it would be a pity to keep it and eat it." Ye Mu was a little reluctant to part with it.

"Stay here and eat, and it won't cost you money, mother. If you go to buy it, you have to pay for it yourself. Why do you have to spend your own money when you can eat something?" Aguang said with a smile.

Mother Ye also laughed, "How can you think of it like this?"

The three monthly passes processed last month have been returned.
