Chapter 882 Three Brothers Discuss
As soon as Ye Yaodong got home, he slumped down on the chair, his hands and feet hanging down naturally.
The old lady also packed a bowl of mung bean soup for him and brought it to him. "Are you tired? It's so painful to walk that long way in such a bright sun. Hurry up and have a bowl of mung bean soup to cool down. I'm in front of you. I specially put a bowl in a basket and floated it in a water tank. It will be cooler than leaving it outside."
"Okay, I'm starving, just give me some rest."
He took a bowl of mung bean soup and poured it in without using a spoon. He only used a spoon when there was a little left in the bowl.
"Would you like to cook some noodles for you to eat first..."
"No, I'll eat soon. I'll just have a bowl of mung bean soup to cushion my stomach."
After drinking a bowl of mung bean soup, he felt like he was alive.
The old lady felt uneasy and reached out to touch his forehead. She was relieved when she felt nothing strange. "It's good that he didn't have heatstroke. It was said that a typhoon was coming. Except for the big waves outside, I didn't feel anything else."
"Um."
"Why didn't your father come with you?"
"He said he wanted to go back and take a shower first."
"Oh, I'll bring you bath water..."
"No, I don't want to move now. I'll wash it later. You can watch your TV and stop working."
The old lady sat down next to him, took the round bamboo plate and put it on her knees, continued to pick shrimps, and said with a smile: "I'm not busy. I just sit there and watch TV all day long. What are I busy with?" , just this matter at hand."
He continued to sit slumped.
Lin Xiuqing was cooking. She turned around and saw that his limbs were still hanging down naturally. She wanted to tell him to go back to the house and lie down for a while, but he said that he hadn't taken a shower and was dirty.
The noise of the children outside the house never stopped. Because of the big waves and high tide, they could not go to the beach to play football, so they had to play in front of their home.
Occasionally, he even heard Ye Chenghai's shouts.
"Ahai is playing outside?"
"It seems that I heard his voice." Ah Qing took the time to reply to him.
"It's really good. It was half dead just now, howling and walking, and almost crawling back. Now it can jump and jump again."
The old lady smiled and said, "Isn't that what children are like? As long as they have fun, they won't feel tired."
Ye Yaodong rested for a while before getting up to fetch water, take a bath, and then eat.
When Ye's father was eating, he asked him, "Has your elder brother talked to you?"
"No."
"Nevermind."
Mother Ye frowned and looked at Father Ye, "Why don't you go over and take a look after dinner?"
"Then you have to finish your meal."
"I can't go there even if I have free time ahead."
"You have to take a break. I'm not a donkey on the production team."
Mother Ye rolled her eyes at him and said nothing.
However, before Ye's father could finish his meal, Ye Yaopeng came over first.
"Eating so early?"
"I didn't eat at lunch, so I'll eat early in the evening. Haven't you eaten yet?" Ye Yaodong said.
"Eat two corns and you'll be ready to eat soon."
After Ye Yaopeng paused for a moment, he added, "Just now the two brothers from the Lan family next door called me over."
"They also want to buy a boat? I thought it was the Zhou brothers calling you."
"There are four Zhou brothers. One of them probably invests a little to be enough, right? There are only two Lan brothers."
"They also want to buy a boat?"
"Well, they are quite interested, but the cost is too high, so they want to find a few familiar friends among the people who went together today. They not only found me, but also found a friend."
Father Ye put down his bowl and chopsticks and looked at him seriously and said: "What do you think? Now the price of a ship with Dongzi's configuration has increased to 15,000, which is equivalent to 1,500 for one share, 3,000 for two shares, and 3,000 for three shares. Just 4,500.”
Ye Yaopeng organized his speech and said: "I was thinking that if I cooperate with them, if I hold a small share, I will have no say. I have to listen to them in everything. If I hold a lot, I won't be able to give so much." Money, and they certainly won’t be happy to let me have more money than they do.”
"That's the truth. Speaking of which, they are our own and you are an outsider."
"That's what I said."
"So you didn't buy it?" Mother Ye interrupted, "How about I ask your cousins later?"
Ye Yaopeng glanced at Ye Yaodong, "I want to ask Dongzi first, if we three brothers get together, do you think it's okay?"
Ye Yaodong also put down the chopsticks in his mouth.
But before he could say anything, his mother rushed over and said, "How can Dongzi have so much money? When the ship is delivered at the end of the year, he will have to pay 8,000 yuan, and another ship will cost several thousand more."
"I just want to say that my own brother is more at ease. I want to ask him first. If he has this idea, we don't have to find anyone else and it will save trouble."
Ye Yaodong thought for a while and said: "This is just a deposit first, which is okay. Or call the second brother over and see what the second brother says? Since you want the three brothers to join forces, then all three brothers can join together. Tell me."
Ye Yaopeng felt interested and said with a smile: "Then I'll call your second brother. I saw he was still eating, so he should have finished eating."
When the others went out, Ye's father quickly asked Ye Yaodong, "Are you planning to join the same boat with your eldest and second brother? Is it too much? Can you be busy?"
"I'm not going to open it. If my eldest brother wants us brothers to work together, he probably wants to open it himself..."
"How can he have the ability to do it on his own..."
It's not that Ye's father looks down on his son, it's that the risk at sea is too great, and the big boat is not the kind of trawler he has at home. By then, it will be far away, and who knows if he will still be able to discern the direction.
"So eldest brother will definitely ask dad to sail the boat by then."
"Then...what about your big boat? You have to ask someone to sail it, and what do you do with so many boats at home..."
"I originally thought that my father would follow me on the boat for two years. After I got familiar with it, you would come back and take care of me. I would go to the dock every day to pick up the ship and collect the goods. Now if the three of us brothers are working on the same boat, then what will happen to my father? You have to help us work for a few more years.”
"It won't matter if you keep doing it for a few more years. It's just that you have too many ships and no one is watching at home. People's hearts are alienated from each other."
"You don't have to worry too much about this. Don't I know a few boys? Just leave one of them to send the task and ask him to go to the dock to pick up the ship and receive the goods."
"Is this...is this okay?"
"Why can't it be done? I pay him a salary and receive the goods. It's also a job for ***. Anyway, I get the bill of goods. I have to settle the payment with the bill of goods. The money doesn't get into their hands, so there's nothing to worry about. . In fact, I went to pick up the goods just to supervise, so as not to be intercepted openly."
Father Ye heard what he said made sense, "Let's talk about it later. It's too early to say this now. Let's discuss the matter at hand first."
"Um."
The father and son both had something to eat when they came back. They had something to do at the moment and were not in the mood to continue eating, but the old lady kept staring at the rice in their bowls and mumbling to herself.
"You have to finish the meal, and the little bit left over is a waste. You have to eat it up. It's not easy to grow some food. In the past few years, you couldn't even eat any rice. You could only eat sweet potatoes. If there is any leftover rice, God will do it. It will be hard to see..."
When Father Ye heard the old lady open her mouth to say the first words, he hurriedly ate the rice in the bowl, otherwise she would be quite capable of talking.
Ye Yaodong also ate quickly.
The old lady was finally satisfied, "There can't be any rice left in this bowl, nor can it be dropped."
The father and son put away the bowls and chopsticks, one sat on the armchair and the other sat in front of the stove, waiting for the two brothers to come over.
The two also discussed the three brothers' partnership.
Ye Yaodong feels that his second brother is now following his footsteps. If he agrees, his second brother should also have no objection, right?
He felt quite relieved about partnering with his two brothers. If someone asked him to join forces, he would definitely refuse. How to calculate the shares would have to be discussed.
He felt that with so much money in his hands, he could keep it and invest in buying a boat. After all, the cost of fishing boats today is indeed quite cheap, and they are durable and can be repaired for decades without a problem.
In 10 years' time, if you want to buy a boat that big for 10,000 to 20,000 yuan, just dream.
If you buy it now, it can appreciate in value and make money, which is much safer than buying a house. The bosses of real estate speculators are still walking around the streets to shoulder the burden.
"Do you really want to join your two brothers on another boat? Is the capital investment too high? Did you buy too many fishing boats this year?"
Ye Yaodong lit a cigarette and nodded, "I still have some money on hand, so it's okay to pay a deposit first. Dad, you went to the shipyard today. You should be able to clearly feel how fast the prices of things are increasing, right?"
"It's only been a year, no, it's less than a year. The price of the boat I bought has gone up by 2,000 yuan. What about next year? Will it still go up?"
"I just keep the money in my hands. How much money do I have to put aside? It will still be how much money next year. So will I earn faster if I buy this boat?"
"The money has been spent, but the boat is still there, and it will not be lost. Even if it is so unlucky, we can only accept the disaster that day. Anyone who eats our rice is taking risks."
After such a long time, Father Ye has finally figured it out. Despite his careless nature, the third child still has some ideas. A quick mind also has the advantage of being quick.
"Then you see for yourself, it doesn't matter if you can bring your eldest brother with you, they are all brothers..."
Seeing Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua coming in together from the yard, Father Ye immediately stopped talking and started smoking a hookah on hand.
Otherwise, when the three brothers would talk later, he didn't know when. He was afraid that he would not have time to spare.
A cigarette after a meal makes you feel as happy as a god.
This is what a chain smoker is like.
Ye Yaopeng probably told Ye Yaohua when he passed by.
As soon as the person entered the door, Ye Yaohua couldn't wait to ask: "Dongzi, eldest brother said that the three of us brothers will join the same boat. What do you say?"
"What do you think, second brother?"
"Ah? I'm asking you!"
Ye Yaodong's mouth twitched, "Let me ask you, what do you think?"
"Haha, let me see you...what did you say?"
