Chapter 572 The Clever Ye Chenghu
Father Ye put down the burden on his shoulders and gave a long and earnest speech, just to get him to give up the idea of buying a big boat.
In fact, Ye Yaodong is not in a hurry to do it now. The technology is not that developed now and the technology is not good enough.
He has no idea of going to the ocean, at least not yet. If he goes to the ocean these days, he doesn't know whether he will come back. No matter how much money he makes, he will spend it without his life, then what's the use of earning so much.
Besides, after going to the ocean, he will be a few months older, a year or two later, and his wife and children will no longer be there? He was thinking about getting a slightly larger one that could go out for three to five days and then come back. This would reduce the risk and allow him to come home more often.
The boat at home does not have the ability to survive at sea for three to five days. It has insufficient horsepower, a small hull, no storage and refrigeration facilities, a small storage capacity for daily necessities, and a small capacity to store oil and fresh water. Not capable of long voyages.
Father Ye frowned when he saw that his son didn't say a word even though he said so much sincerely.
"Dongzi? Did you listen to what I told you?"
"Yes, I heard it, but Dad, we have to take a longer view. There will definitely be more and more boats fishing in this offshore area. In a few years, there will definitely be no more fish to catch."
"I didn't say that I wanted to go very far at once, nor did I plan to go out for a few months like they did on a boat. Let's just go offshore and go a little further, and the water level is deeper. It's also considered offshore. We don’t go to the deep sea, let alone the high seas. As long as we can stay outside for a few more days if we have the conditions, there will definitely be more goods outside.” The surrounding sea area they fished belongs to the East China Sea, which has the widest continental shelf in China. The East China Sea is located east of Shanghai, Zhejiang Province and Fujian Province, and west of China's Taiwan Island and Ryukyu Islands. The average water depth is 370 meters, and the maximum water depth is 2719 meters in the Ryukyu Trough.
Coastal tidal flat: A beach that is submerged by high tide and exposed by low tide. Shallow sea areas: Generally, offshore coastal areas with a water depth of no more than 20 meters are the main creation areas for plankton. For example, those sea oysters adsorbed on rocks are all generated by the adsorption of plankton.
Offshore area: The place extending from the offshore continental shelf to the ocean. The depth is generally within two hundred meters. It is a transparent water area that can be illuminated by sunlight. It is a prosperous sea area for various marine life, including various shallow sea fish.
The depth of the sea area where they used to fish offshore was basically only thirty or forty meters, and the area near the coast was even shallower. Ye Yaodong had dived there before, and he still had memories from his previous life, so he probably knew how deep the offshore water around them was.
The offshore waters farther away can also be called the deep sea verbally, but in fact, the deep sea internationally refers to a water depth of about one thousand meters, and a wider range refers to a water depth of between 600 meters and two thousand meters.
"I don't plan to be like those big ships. I go there for a few months. I can go there for three to five days. I heard that Aguang's ship is quite profitable this year. It only took a year to salvage the capital." I came back and made a lot of money in the second half of the year.”
"They just go fishing in deep offshore areas farther away. Their boats are not big, only 20 meters, but the cabins are big enough to sleep people and store materials. Although the freezing and preservation technology on the boats is not good, they can sell them directly at sea. The harvesting boat can either keep it fresh with ice cubes first, sell it at the nearest shore in a day or two, and replenish fresh water and supplies with ice cubes, and then continue fishing."
"It's good to stay out for a few days. If the wind and weather are not right, you can rest on the nearest shore, or come back directly. You can work like this for a few days and rest for a few days. It's quite refreshing! And you can stay at sea day and night. The shift fishing operation is not a waste of time." Father Ye was a little hesitant after hearing this, and asked uncertainly: "How many days will it take to return? How many months will it take?"
"Why go there for a few months? Aren't you afraid of wind and waves? It's not possible that the weather will be good every day. Then we will go there for a few days, then go back to the city to sell goods, and then go home to repair after the sales are completed. We will go further when the weather gets better. The fish that can be caught in the sea will definitely be better.”
"If you think about it again, you can earn quite well now, and you can make steady money like this. If you order another big boat, you will have to invest a lot of money, which is more expensive than buying another boat like yours. It’s several times longer, and it’s inconvenient to communicate outside, and it’s even more inconvenient on the ship.”
"I didn't say we'd make a decision right now. I just said we'd get to know it first. Besides, this custom-made ship won't be that fast, and I don't know what the technology is. We can't just settle on it. It must be done. We need to understand first before we can discuss and make a decision. This is a big deal, and I don’t even know if I have enough money.” Father Ye nodded quickly.
"Yes, you can't spend all your money on it. You have to keep some money on hand for turnover or other purposes."
"Such a big boat is very expensive, not to mention that it is new and custom-made. It may not cost you all your money. In the past, it was only available in the fishery department. And you are still thinking about freezing and fresh-keeping technology. Nowadays, a refrigerator costs thousands of dollars, let alone one for ships.”
"It's best not to worry about it. Your boat is enough and you can make a lot of money. It's enough. You don't have to worry about changing boats. You just bought it last year. It will be fine if you drive it for more than ten years. At most Just fixing and repairing machines.”
"Dad, if everyone thinks like you, no one will change to a big boat, and everyone's small boat will be enough for them until they get old."
"Is that so? Just like this dress, you bought it last year and you can still wear it this year. You can't wear it last year and throw it away this year. Then buy a new one and a better one, right? If it's torn, you have to sew it up again. Repair it, keep wearing it, keep using it, you don’t have to spend money.” Ye Yaodong was speechless for a moment, what metaphor is not good, but clothes?
These clothes are in short supply now and everyone is frugal. In the future, people will replace them every year. Don’t say they are worn out and they won’t want them after wearing them for a season. No, some women don’t want to wear them after wearing them two or three times.
"I didn't say I don't want the current boat. Even if I buy a bigger boat in the future, the current boat can still be rented out or find someone to work with like A Guang. If you don't worry, you can go to the shipyard with me in a few days. Take a look and understand it, it wouldn’t hurt to know more about the current shipbuilding technology, let’s talk about it after reading it.”
"Well, then it's okay to go take a look together then. Just take a look first. Don't be in a hurry. Don't be in a hurry either."
"I'm not in a hurry." Ye Yaodong shook his head helplessly. If his father would hit and scold him like before, he would still be able to ignore him. But now that he is so sincere, he can only comfort him.
He couldn't just say that he had been running boats for more than ten years and had a lot of experience. He could just take his father to see it first. Anyway, he had to see it first.
"Go back quickly, walk faster, it's getting dark." Father Ye took up the burden again. It was rare to catch a lot of rays today, and they were all sold directly to the dock. In contrast, the toads were much less, only more than 700 kilograms. They only needed to push them back in a cart and he would pick up another load.
It’s hard to say which fish is more expensive now. After all, the value of toad fish has doubled when it is dried and dried.
The father and son reached a consensus that there was no need to rush. They would discuss it after reading and understanding it. There was no need to rush to discuss it now.
When they pushed the trolley to the door of the house, Ye Mu immediately ran out to open the door and said: "I planned to go to the dock after turning over the fish, but I didn't expect that I came back very early today. How much did I sell today?" Money? I'll ask your aunt to come over and kill the fish." The father and son pushed the cart into the yard without speaking to anyone.
It was quite tiring. The two of them talked a lot about each other on the way back. They had no desire to talk at all at the moment. Even though his mother was standing at the door ready to go out, as long as you answered the conversation, she could talk for a while. Will go out.
Mother Ye saw that no one spoke to the father and son, and knew that they were tired, so she only muttered a few words.
"Is it just this one car? It doesn't look like a lot. I'm going to call for people now and ask your two aunts to come over and help kill them. Your eldest and second brothers are a little late today and haven't come back yet..." She looked at After a few glances at the goods, they walked out while talking, without expecting the father and son to answer the conversation.
Lin Xiuqing also walked out wearing an apron at this time, still holding the apron with both hands and wiping it.
"Ah Dong, there is almost no room for sunshine in the front yard. You can push it to the back door and kill it. If you kill us, we can dry it directly at the back door. Otherwise, there will be no place to dry it."
"Okay." There are dried fish hanging above the head, leaving only the middle aisle. It can be placed on the ground, but it will be too crowded.
Ye Yaodong asked his father to sit down and rest first. He pushed the trolley to the back door and washed his hands at the back door before entering the house.
At this time, Ye Chengyang ran over with an orange in his hand.
"Dad, eat oranges!"
"Well, be good!"
"Mom, give it to me, and I'll give it to you!" Maybe this kid has had enough food and drink at home in the past two years since he can remember it, and he often buys snacks for them, so he is not so greedy and is quite generous?
Ye Chenghu was sitting at the table doing homework. He glanced over and whispered,
"Flattery!" Ye Yaodong had very good ears, so he went over and gave him a slap in the face.
"Who are you calling a flatterer all day long? You get scolded every day, so you don't want to see your brother being praised, right?"
"snort!"
"The sun is out in the west today, it's not dark yet, and you're actually starting to do your homework?"
"My mother won't let me eat oranges. She said I can only eat them after I finish my homework. Damn it, Yangyang can eat them!"
"Oh, like this? Then write it quickly and I will supervise you." Ye Yaodong sat down next to him and started peeling the oranges.
He touched the orange's butt with his thumb, and then tore off the peel. Suddenly, the juice from the orange peel splashed directly onto Ye Chenghu's face, and the unique fragrant and sour smell of the orange instantly filled his nasal cavity.
Ye Chenghu's eyes widened as he looked at the oranges in his father's hands. A sour taste began to appear in his mouth, and he couldn't help but swallow.
"Can you please stop eating here?" Ye Yaodong smiled evilly,
"No, I'm a good father. Your mother won't let you eat it, but I can let you smell it." Ye Chenghu looked at his father's expression. How could he not know that he did it on purpose? He was so angry. Stare at him.
"annoying!"
"This orange has a big skin and a thin skin. It must be sour and sweet." Watching his father peeling the oranges, the smell wafted into his nose. He sniffed passively and felt The flavor is stronger.
This was extremely uncomfortable for him. He could smell it and see it, but he couldn't eat it. He bit the pen holder and watched eagerly.
Ye Yaodong waved the peeled orange in front of him.
"Hurry up and write!" Then he handed it to Ye Chengyang who was standing aside and watching, which almost made him angry again. He held the pen tightly in his hand and drew heavily on the notebook, and the result was clatter. All of a sudden, he poked a hole in the notebook and tore a big slit, and the tip of the pencil was broken by him.
At this time, he knew he was panicking. He quickly pressed his hands on the notebook, then looked at his father and then his mother in panic.
Ye Yaodong raised his eyebrows.
"Aqing~"
"Dad!" Ye Chenghu was afraid that his father would ask his mother to get a whip, so he shouted in a panic, and then said in a flattering manner: "Dad, do you want oranges? Don't call me mother, mother has to cook, Yangyang is busy Eat the oranges, I'll help you get them!" Good boy!
He was quite clever at this time!
