Chapter 635 Abacus

Also because they were in a hurry, they had to go out to sea to launch the net. They only stayed for a short while, and Ye Yaodong and Ye's father went back first.

Anyway, with Father Pei taking the lead, they both quite trust each other, and there is no need to give a deposit or anything like that, just make a verbal agreement.

It was just that they were in a hurry to go back and forgot about Shopee. After thinking about it, they planned to ask Father Pei to ask the other party if they would sell it when they came back in the evening, so as not to bother the two masters.

There was no need to go all the way back, their time was already tight.

Fortunately, coming here was a quick fix. His father had already seen it before, so it only took an hour to talk back and forth, and he went home immediately after finishing it.

Ye Yaodong pushed the cart, which was filled with white sticky nets. They were all sticking out and were taller than a person. Three or four buckets were hung on the handles of the cart. There was no place to put the baskets, so they had to pile them up for Ye Yaodong to push. The father carried it, and the father and son talked while walking.

"So many dragonhead fish can weigh three to four thousand kilograms after being dried. For others, too much is a burden, and no one may want the fish when it is fresh. For us, it costs five to six hundred You can double the money and make a lot of money. This is a big bargain. I will have to thank you Uncle Pei later."

"That's for sure. Isn't it 14 cents? I plan to use an extra cent to pay Uncle Pei as an agency fee, which means he didn't pull the strings in vain."

"That's okay. For such a large quantity, one cent is only thirty or forty yuan after counting the agency fees. It's much better than buying those things to eat and drink. You can't get anything with real money."

"Um."

"It seems that the dried fish business is very reliable. You should pay more attention to it. You can't leave everything to your father-in-law and mother-in-law. After all, they are old and sometimes they can't take care of them. You have to keep track of the quantities." Countless."

Ye Yaodong probably knew that his father had something he didn't say, and it was human nature to be worried, so he didn't have the resources to take care of it.

However, judging from the trajectory of his previous life, his father-in-law and mother-in-law can still trust him. Even if he really hides it privately, he will not hide too much. He knows the weight of the things before sending them away.

Anyway, it's just a dried fish after being sold.

It's normal to have discrepancies. As long as the difference is not outrageous, he actually doesn't care. He just treats the two elders as giving the white-haired person to the black-haired person in his previous life. He already made a lot of money, and since the two of them are old, they won't be able to work together for long.

"I know, I know it."

"I hope the weather will be better next time. If we go out to sea more and get more sunshine, we can sell more. If we can sell five, six, seven or eight thousand kilograms this month, the income from this dried fish alone will be the final payment for your big boat this year. I can get it all together, and I still have some money left, so I can get all the work at sea and other jobs directly."

"Dad, you take it for granted. There must be so much dried fish to sell all year round. Unless we specifically catch one kind of fish, like a trawl net, what kind of fish can we drag? They are all miscellaneous fish, and the number is very small. Very rarely, unless you encounter a school of fish.”

Toad fish, for example, are best caught in winter. They usually live on the deep sea floor at 500 to 1,000 meters. Their gonads begin to develop in winter and they lay eggs in spring. During this period, they move to shallow sea areas. When the spawning is over, they will return. If they reach the deep sea, they won’t be able to catch them at that time.

And to be honest, if he specifically catches a specific type of fish and brings it back for drying, he might not be able to get much profit from trawling it. After all, the trawling net will catch everything it passes through, killing both big and small fish, and he has always had good luck.

Father Ye thought for a while and thought it made sense, "Then when spring passes, there will be no more toads and fish, and there will be no need to dry the fish. Only those miscellaneous fish will be dried. Then we will collect more by then. We can't just do that." Several have accepted it.”

"Spring is here, and a lot of Balang fish have been caught in the net in previous years. This fish is also very cheap. The village sells a large number of its own fish every year. Let's tell the folks later that there are fish in the village. We all need to do it, lest we run out of things to sell within a few days of opening and have to close down for a rest."

After Ye Yaodong set up a stall selling dried fish for a few days, he really felt that there was no need to worry about selling the things now. No wonder this era is full of gold and opportunities.

He didn't know how far he could go, or how far he could do it. After all, he was also a complete novice, relying entirely on groping, so he could only move forward step by step.

"Dried Balang fish is also available. Every household in our surrounding area likes it, and people in the city must also like it."

When they cook noodles, they like to take one out, tear off the meat and put it in.

When he thought of cooking noodles, Father Ye thought of the shell meat again, "It's a pity that your mother is not free. Otherwise, I would ask her to go to the sea every day, bring back more of the shells, dry some of the shell meat, and take it away It’s probably going to be easy to sell.”

"My mother can't go, and it's the same for my elder and second sisters-in-law. Anyway, they can't make much money by weaving nets at home. When my eldest and second brothers go to sea, why don't we just take them with us?"

"Ah, yes, just thinking about your mother, I missed your elder sister-in-law and second sister-in-law. Anyway, they stay at home all day long, mending and weaving nets, and they are idle. If you mention it to them when you come back in the evening, they can sell it for money. It’s best, if you can’t sell it for money, you can just keep it for home use, so it just takes a little more effort.”

Ye Yaodong nodded. This is a good idea. Today's seafood is mainly difficult to circulate. It is convenient to dry it, but you have to dig and pry it yourself, which is more laborious and time-consuming.

Those are all in the shell. If you dig out a hundred pounds or so, you will get only a little bit of meat. The weight is all on the shell. It won’t be much if you expose it to the sun. You won’t make a lot of money, but you can still earn some extra money to support your family. Compared with The web is stronger.

It would also allow his store to offer more varieties, no longer just those kinds of dried fish, but mosquito legs, no matter how small they are, are still meat.

Father Ye was talking about it all the way, and felt that he was very smart, so he found some work for his two daughters-in-law, so that they would not work together all day long to talk about how even the two elders favored Dongzi.

I just killed a chicken yesterday, and the fragrant smell can't be hidden from the next door. I heard it when I came here this morning. I didn't think that Dongzi was taking care of himself now, and they all ate and drank at his house.

Having too many sons is a source of worry.

The father and son walked and chatted about dried fish, shellfish, and the collection of goods in the village. They did not speak until they loaded the fishing nets and things on the boat and left the shore.

With the sound of the wind blowing in his ears, Father Ye looked at Ye Yaodong who was looking at the boat ahead with a serious look on his face. Thinking of the compliments he received in the morning, he felt comforted by Lao Huai.

Ye Yaodong turned around and saw his father's strange smiling face. He felt a little panicked. Why were you looking at him smiling?

baffling!

He continued to look forward, paying attention to the direction he was heading. The water waves on both sides of the ship kept receding. The sea surface was like a mirror, reflecting the color of the sky. However, the sky was a bit gray today, and the clear sky in the morning was only for a moment. Anyway, as long as the waves are not big enough to go out to sea.

After arriving at the place, the father and son were not in a hurry to get off the net and just finished their lunch first to avoid running out of time to eat. It was already past ten o'clock when the boat left.

Father Ye had already started up the coal stove in advance and heated up a large portion of cauliflower fried rice cake that Ah Qing had fried.

After eating, the two of them started working on lowering sticky nets and buoys.

The sea was empty at first glance. There was not a single boat as far as the eye could see. There was only their boat floating on the sea, working precariously.

Ye Yaodong also drove to this area and stopped when he saw that there were no ships operating nearby. Otherwise, further ahead would be the waters they were usually familiar with.

Although there are a little more trawlers now than in previous years, compared with the future, they can be said to be very few. There are only a few in a village, and small villages may not have trawlers yet.

As the years passed, more and more fishing boats became available, and the fishing technology became more mature. While the fishing boats returned with full loads, the amount of marine cargo also decreased significantly. By the turn of the millennium, the offshore waters were also being fished, and there was a fishing moratorium. This policy was promulgated.

Now is still a time for casual fishing, big fishing, and no worries.

When there would be a fishing moratorium in the future, Ye Yaodong suddenly said with emotion, "It's better to buy a boat as early as possible. You have to earn the money you should earn first, otherwise it will all be earned by RB people and HG people."

"What?"

Father Ye looked at him inexplicably, why did he suddenly say this?

What does it have to do with RB people and HG people when he buys a boat?

"Nothing, just complaining. Our country's shipbuilding technology is still too poor. No wonder we will be beaten if we say our technology is lagging behind."

"Do you know again? Are the skills of RB people and HG people better? From the newspaper?" Father Ye looked at him suspiciously, "The newspapers write about everything?"

"So, you should study more and bring me the net over there."

Ye Yaodong didn't answer directly. He just thought of complaining casually. Could he really explain everything? The key is that he can't explain it clearly.

Father Ye looked at him inexplicably and didn't say anything in the middle of the sentence, but he didn't hesitate and changed the topic himself.

"When you have time, you must go to the shipyard more often to see if your ship has been built. Go there more often to show your face and urge others. With so much money, some people will never make so much money in their lifetime, but Don’t be fooled.”

"I know, I know, you have to be free to go here. If you are free, go. Anyway, you know where it is. This ginger is said to be old and spicy. I, a young man, don't know as much as you. Please help me go there. Supervision and supervision.”

Make the best use of everything. Anyway, when his father is not working, he is idle.

"If it's a weekend, take Ah Hai with you and take him to have a look. This is a legitimate opportunity to steal a lesson. Just let him see if he's interested? If you want him to learn, he has to be interested himself. "

Father Ye's eyes suddenly lit up, "Yes, yes, yes, I told you that day, you insist on saying that there is no way. Anyway, he can't read, so take him and have a look. It's better to have a look first. If there is a craft in this hand, He will be able to support the whole family in the future. He is also 13 years old, and your eldest brother didn’t even know how much work he did when he was 13 years old.”

"Then he still has to finish his studies. Just take him there on weekends. Just to join in the fun and broaden his horizons. We can't go every day."

"I know, I know."
