Chapter 911 Spread the Word
Return to the Small Fishing Village in 1982 Text Volume Chapter 911 The word spread that he did not go to his own home, but abducted him to his hometown.
I wonder if his father went to his house for dinner after taking a shower? Let’s go to my hometown to have a look first.
His parents now spend most of their time in his home except for sleeping and going back to their hometown. Even if they have nothing to do, they will hang around his place during the day and pick up things for the three brothers at the door of the yard, before and after.
Undoubtedly, he turned around to the old house and missed it. In his old house, only his elder sister-in-law and his second sister-in-law were there chopping pig grass and cooking pig food. He was dragged by his neighbors to chat for a while before he escaped.
Sure enough, he answered the sentence, "Today is different from the past." He is now considered a favorite in the village.
Fortunately, he is married, otherwise all the seven aunts and eight aunts could cross the threshold of his family.
Ye Yaodong got on his bicycle and hurried home again.
One advantage of riding a bicycle is that you don’t have to stop. When someone greets you, by the time you realize it, you are already behind them, you only need to turn around and say a word or two, and then you can continue walking forward.
Most people see you riding a bicycle and don't think it's important to stop you.
As soon as he got home, he saw his father sitting in front of his second brother smoking hookah, while Ye Xiaoxi chased chickens and dogs in the open space, and the chickens and dogs jumped around.
"father!"
Father Ye just raised his eyelids, didn't respond to him, and didn't say a word, pretending to be a sophisticated man who only cares about his hookah.
Ye Yaodong put the brakes on his bicycle and strode towards him.
"You want to say you won't go out to sea at night, right?"
Ye Yaodong: "..."
You are so smart dad!
"Are you the roundworm in my stomach?"
"As soon as you stick your butt out, I'll know what kind of shit you're pooping?"
"Then do you know why I don't go to sea at night?"
Father Ye looked at him like a fool, "Didn't you call to have the motorcycle repaired? Now that we have contacted you, why don't you send the car over? You are so lazy that you don't want to work that day, how can you go out to sea at night? It’s not all a ready excuse.”
"Okay, forget it if you don't have time. It's up to you. I'll go to sea with Chen Shi tomorrow."
"That's not what it is, Dad."
"Do you have other reasons, other excuses? The motorcycle is not repaired and you haven't been contacted?"
"I just finished calling the repair shop and just after confirming it, Chen Jiannian called..."
Father Ye stared, "Did Chen Jianian call? Is the flood season coming?"
As he spoke, he put down the hookah in his hand and wiped it on his body. He stood up and asked again, "What did he say?"
"Let's just say that there have been jellyfish on the sea in the past two days, but the number is small. There are also more than a dozen jellyfish being processed in the factory today. Let us prepare in the past two days."
"Okay, okay, let's get ready in the next two days. If your eldest and second brothers come back later, you have to tell them."
"Well, don't worry, just prepare in the next two days."
"I have to go hoe all the potatoes in the field. Then I will bring two sacks on the boat. I will also bring more pumpkins that I harvested some time ago. Fortunately, I planted a lot this year, so I can bring them all with me..."
Father Ye babbled about what he wanted to bring, and picked up Ye Xiaoxi, who was chasing chickens and dogs, and walked to his yard, preparing to plow the ground before the sun went down and it was still early before dark.
Ye Yaodong also followed his father. Last year they traveled around, staying in this village for a day or two, and in that village for a day or two. Those who could stay in the village were fine. At least they could exchange vegetables with the villagers. In the following days, There are only fish and shrimp floating on the sea.
After the experience, his father thought that there was nothing wrong with being more prepared. Anyway, they were all things that could be stored. When he was out, he had enough to be prepared.
He went into the house and told Ah Qing about receiving the call. Ah Qing suddenly became anxious and panicked. She didn't care about cooking dinner and just wanted to go into the house and rummage through the cabinets to pack his clothes and quilts.
Fortunately, he persuaded her and told her that there was no rush at this moment, just prepare it in the next two days, and it was expected to be the day after tomorrow.
She finally calmed down and continued cooking.
The old lady was not in the house. She was watching Ye Xiaoxi in the yard who was about to run out as soon as she was brought back. She didn't know that they would go on a long trip in two days.
However, when he was also holding a basket and preparing to help his father collect the hoeed potatoes, the old lady became anxious.
"What are you two doing? Why didn't you sit down and take a hoe when you just came back? When you don't go to sea, you can stay at home and do the work in the fields. You have been working all day, otherwise you will be so tired. Let’s go get some sleep?”
"It doesn't matter these jobs. Occasionally, Qing can pick up a hoe when he has free time. Just enough to eat is enough. You two, don't be too busy. You won't get old if you leave it in the ground for a few more days. There's no need to worry now. Plant new ones…”
Father Ye glanced at her but said nothing.
When he took the hoe to dig the ground, he didn't say anything, but when Dongzi came to help, she started talking.
Ye Yaodong said: "My father and I are going to dig out all the potatoes in this ridge and put them in baskets and bags. We may go to Zhejiang Province in two days, so prepare in advance."
"ah?"
"Going so soon? Isn't it too early?"
After a wall was separated, a female voice came from outside, and soon there was another woman in her thirties or forties at the door of the courtyard. She was Sister-in-law Zhou next door.
Ye Yaodong repeated it to her again, and she slapped her thigh fiercely, "Oh, they will come back later. I need to tell them that you are not leaving so soon, are you?"
"No, let's prepare in the next two days."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Sister-in-law Zhou felt relieved instantly and hurried back to tell her sister-in-law.
He had been mentally prepared for a long time. They were all neighbors on the left and right, and they usually had a good relationship. When he wanted to set off, he would definitely have to give them a break.
Otherwise, when the time comes, I will just run away, and it is time to leave something to say to others, after all, everyone has been looking forward to it.
After the old lady and others left, she quickly added: "When did you know about it? I didn't even hear your father talk about it just now."
"I just came back from answering the phone and talked to dad at the door."
"Oh, then you can leave it and do it tomorrow, right? It's been a tiring day today."
"It's okay. I came back early today. While it's still dark, I'll get ready in advance. We won't go to sea at night anyway."
"Then I will go and worship Bodhisattva for you, recite sutras, Amitabha, Bodhisattva bless you, Bodhisattva bless you..."
The old lady rolled the beads in her hand, chanted the Buddha's name, and walked into the house.
When the sun went down and in the evening, the fishing boats came back one after another, and the news that Ye Yaodong was going to Zhejiang Province to catch jellyfish spread throughout the village.
When they were having dinner at their house, waves of people came to the door. However, through the open courtyard door and the door of the house, everyone knew that they were having dinner, so they did not rush in. They all gathered next to Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua. door.
The noise was just like that of a vegetable market. They could hear it clearly even while they were eating, and the whole family was also talking about it at the dinner table.
"It's useless to say so much. It's just reckless. Last year, I just rushed away in a boat. What's more, there will be so many people going with me this year. There will be people taking care of me. It should be okay in terms of safety. Prepare more food. Just use it for outdoor use.”
"Then you have to agree with them when you go out later. You can follow them if you want, but if something happens or an accident happens, you are not responsible. We can only try our best to take care of them. But we can't just rely on them if anything happens. Come on us."
Listening to the movement outside, Mother Ye felt that there were many people there, so she turned around and glanced.
Ye Yaodong responded casually, "How can I not know this?"
The old lady also looked at Ye Mu, "You remember to go to the next village tomorrow to see who has harvested more rice. Buy some and send it to be ground and shelled in advance. It just happened to be harvested a few days ago."
"You don't have to worry, just recite your sutra."
"Hey, I'll start reading a little more tomorrow."
Ye Yaodong and his father just ate a little and went out. When they came back early in the afternoon, they had already eaten snacks and were not hungry at night. Coupled with the commotion outside, they could not eat with peace of mind.
As soon as the father and son appeared at the door, everyone gathered around them, both men and women, and asked all sorts of questions, such as:
"I heard that I'm going to Zhejiang Province in the next two days. Is it true?"
"When are you leaving?"
"We all want to go with you. Can you please take us with you? There is strength in numbers. People outside will definitely be xenophobic. It will be better if there are more of us."
"Let me know when we're going to leave, so we can prepare in the next two days, okay?"
"As long as we go with you, we won't cause any trouble to you."
"Yes, everyone wants to go with us, but we are not familiar with the place and have no way to sell goods. Adong, can you take me with you?"
"You take everyone with you, we all thank you..."
Ye Yaodong also heard a few words: You all made so much money last year. If you have money, let's make a fortune together. Let's bring everyone with us this year, right?
I don't know who said it, but it was a female voice, which almost made him angry. However, most of the requests were quite pleasant.
And he directly replied in the affirmative, telling everyone that he would tentatively schedule the morning of the day after tomorrow. This was something he discussed with his father during dinner, and try to wait for the Harvest. If he couldn't make it in the morning of the day after tomorrow, he would have to forget it.
Anyway, everyone is determined to follow, so we will try our best to prepare everything that needs to be prepared in the next two days.
"The notification I received was also very sudden, and it was also a call I received when I came back in the afternoon. I didn't hide it from everyone. I knew it, and everyone basically knows it now."
"You can follow whatever you want. Anyway, I will only lead the way. I don't know what the situation will be when this year comes, so I can only look after each other with everyone."
"I can't be responsible for everyone's safety, and I don't have this obligation. I don't earn your money. Whether you go or not has no effect on me. It all depends on your own volition. You have to think about it yourself."
"There is definitely danger. It is definitely more dangerous than here. After all, we are on someone else's territory."
He still had to tell everyone what he needed to say so that they all knew what was going on.
By the way, tell them how difficult the conditions will be because they may have to sleep on a deserted island and cannot stay in a village. Otherwise, they will all think that they can make a lot of money and feel relaxed.
Father Ye also helped talk about last year's situation, and everyone was asking questions, and the scene was lively.
Before it gets dark, there are voices of discussion at the door of Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua. Everyone is enthusiastic and interested, eager to have a big fight. No one is thinking about quitting.
There are also some villagers in the village who, although they don't have boats and can't follow, some of them came to join in the fun and listen to it after hearing about it.
"You are all so active. Are you really sure you can make a lot of money? How much money did they make last year?"
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!
"Yes, there are people who say how much they earned last year, two thousand three thousand, five thousand six thousand eight thousand, etc. I don't know if it's true or not?"
"A Dong, how much did you earn last year?"
Ye Yaodong didn't want to answer so honestly.
"Several thousand dollars, maybe. There are also costs, wages, gas expenses, etc. It's very high. I haven't calculated the exact amount of money I've made. Money comes in and out every day."
"And I have to remit money every three days. After all, I have too much money with me when I am away from home and it is not safe, so I can't do it. As you know, I haven't gone to school for a few days at all, and I don't really have to go to school every day." Memorize it one by one."
Everyone couldn't help but nod after hearing this.
Some people also said: "That should be because some of you earn more and some earn less, so the range has widened. After all, if you can earn at least a thousand yuan a month, you have already made a lot of money. We How much have you earned during the two years of squid flood season? Not as good as jellyfish, right?"
"Yes, yes, you're right. I've only been here for a month and I can earn at least a thousand dollars. It's already thanks to Mazu's blessing and burning incense."
"Anyway, it's a good thing to make money."
"I heard that the flood season is earlier this year. I said I went there at the end of August last year, but I will go there at the end of July this year. I should be able to fish for an extra month by then, right? One more month of work means one more month of money. That's really Yes, it’s worth it if you can earn so much.”
"It makes me itch, then can't I earn a boat in this flood season? I catch up with two flood seasons in a year, and all the capital is returned, right? All the hard work in other times is earned."
"That makes sense..."
Someone held an empty fist and punched the palm of his hand, "Oh, that's a pity! If we had known, we would be so cruel, wouldn't two or three of us be able to catch up if we join forces on a trawler?"
"Isn't it too late to say this now?"
"Why don't we go to the shipyard tomorrow and ask? Are there any ready-made trawlers? So many people have gone. I feel that if they don't go, they will lose a lot?"
"It's okay. It won't hurt to ask. Anyway, if you buy a boat and keep it at home, you can still make money by trawling. After all, it can be driven for decades. You won't lose anything if you buy it. If you owe some money now, you can slowly make money in the future. That’s fine.”
"Huh? Ah Zheng, it seems that you just bought the boat, not a few days ago? How much did it cost? Was there any ready-made in the factory when you bought it?"
Some people's eyes shifted to Ah Zheng.
Ah Zheng is also a bitch!
Lies come as soon as you open your mouth.
"There is nothing ready-made. I have made reservations for a long time before I get it. You don't need to bother. You don't have to go to sea in vain. You can earn an extra day of money by going to sea on time. Otherwise, it doesn't matter if you go to sea in vain, but you will lose a day. The money I was supposed to earn would be amazing.”
With so many people going there, there are more than a dozen boats in total. If there are a few more boats, won't the competition be huge?
Originally, the number of fishing boats was increasing year by year. There must be more local boats. If there were more boats, wouldn't they earn less?
If we need to take care of them, a dozen of their boats will be enough to take care of them. It's better not to come with so many people. Too many people will be troublesome, and they will also cause everyone to make less money. The total cake is only that big.
"Is there really nothing ready-made?"
"Really not, maybe you can go to the city and have a look?"
"How to get there? I don't know the road, and I can't speak Mandarin. Don't be betrayed if you go, or you won't be able to come back. That's not possible, it's too dangerous, forget it..."
Ah Zheng was snickering in his heart, very proud!
Ye Yaodong also laughed. He didn't want too many people. Too many people meant too many things.
If there are more than a dozen boats, including the need to hire boatmen, there will be nearly a hundred people. This team is already large enough. If anything happens, it will probably happen at sea, so it is almost enough to handle it.
All the stools from their houses were moved out, and everyone sat at their door, discussing various things.
Wang Guangliang and the others also came over after dinner. They were so surprised to see so many people at the door that they were almost shocked.
After getting closer and listening to it, I realized that Brother Dong is going to Zhejiang Province to fish for jellyfish in the next two days!
So what do they do?
Ye Yaodong also saw them coming, and quickly got up and walked towards them, followed them towards the workshop, and explained to them as he walked.
By the way, I talked about the arrangements for them, just let them help with the work at home.
When digging the ground in the afternoon, he and his father chatted while turning over potatoes.
Of these boys, he only planned to take Chen Shi and Chen Qishui on the other boat. The others would have to stay at home to help dry the fish and watch the workshop.
The dried fish that should be dried every day at home cannot be stopped. After all, there is already a shortage in the city. As long as the weather is good, it must be dried every day. He will tell Ah Qing about this in the evening.
So after much deliberation, Wang Guangliang, his cousin and the twins were suitable to stay at home and work and watch the scene. If anything happened, there were still a few men who could help.
He is not afraid of them making trouble, after all, this village is full of people from the same village, half of the village is his family's relatives, and the neighbors will help to keep an eye on it.
This trip can be considered a real test for them.
"Brother Dong, don't worry. We are at home, and we will give you..."
Wang Guangliang slapped the twin's second brother hard on the shoulder, "Can you speak? What does it mean to go with peace of mind? If you say more words, you will die."
"You have to say: Brother Dong, you can make a lot of money with peace of mind. We will help you look after your home to ensure that you will be the same when you leave and you will be the same when you come back. There will only be more and not less, and we will not let you down." People who don’t have a good eye come to make trouble.”
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content!
The twins were immediately convinced, "Yes, yes, we are what A Liang said."
"It's okay, I know what you mean, you just need to take care of my house. And your wages will be paid monthly, not daily, 40 yuan a month, starting from today the 22nd. "
"Then you will take turns to come and watch during the day and night. You will help with the work of chopping wood and carrying water. If you want to slaughter, we will hire someone else. You don't need everyone to stay here at the same time. Just take turns in the morning and evening."
"If you are unsure about anything, just ask my wife. When I come back, I will see how you perform and give each of you another red envelope."
These people are not very old. Although they usually speak nicely, the carrot that should be dangled in front of them still has to be dangled.
They exulted in unison and agreed happily.
"Brother Dong, I wish you a smooth trip out and a safe return with a lot of money."
"Brother Dong, I also wish you good luck, peace and prosperity!"
Ye Yaodong stopped them from opening their mouths one by one, "I know what you are thinking. Ah Liang will run for me later. Go back and tell Chen Shi that he should not come over at night. Come back during the day tomorrow to save him from running around in vain at night." trip."
"Okay, Brother Dong."
"Are you coming here right after dinner? You came here a little early today. The fish hasn't been delivered yet. Just wait in the workshop. It should be here soon."
Ye Yaodong walked to the door of the workshop, shouted inside, and drove out all the children who were playing ball and playing.
"No one is allowed to come here from now on, everyone will go to the beach to play."
After that, he also told Wang Guangliang and the others not to let the children run in to play again, so as not to overturn the dried fish, and to lock the door when it was time to lock it, and evict people when it was time to evict them.
After chatting with them in the workshop for a while, he explained everything that needed to be explained. It wasn't until Ah Cai sent several carts of fish over that he left and asked his mother to call someone to kill him.
There were a lot of people chattering just outside the door. No one left. Instead, they came to watch the fun. More people participated in the discussion. Everyone was very enthusiastic. Some were interested, some were admiring, some were inquiring, and there was a lot of discussion. It's endless, it hasn't been so lively for a long time.
Ye Yaodong saw his two cousins and Brother Asheng coming over at some point, and he quickly called them to talk.
This time he still has to bring them all. They have been there once and have plenty of experience. Moreover, he did not search for anything last year. He was also paid a lot of wages for going with him. The cooperation was very pleasant. I believe they will be very happy this year too. Follow.
For the other missing boatmen, he would have to add up the numbers after he returned home in the evening. He would calculate how many he would hire and hire them early tomorrow morning. He would hire them from relatives first, so he could feel more at ease.
Some people came to him after seeing him. His aunt was one of them.
Ye Yaodong was talking to his two cousins and Brother Asheng when he saw his eldest aunt coming over again and starting to jump around.
"Ah Dong, your cousin has been invited, and your brother A Sheng has also been invited. I might as well call you Brother A Fan. We ourselves are definitely more at ease than outsiders when we go out, don't you think?"
He had a headache. Why was he like Xiao Qiang who couldn't be beaten to death? The more frustrated I become, the more courage I get.
"Brother Afan is here too? You don't need to worry about him as a big man. If you have anything to do, ask him to come over and tell me. He is looking for work, not you, so you should let him come over and tell me. , I’m very busy now.”
After saying that, he went back to the house. He was going to decide now how many people he would need to hire for the two boats. He also had to discuss with his eldest and second brothers. He also had to ask about his 1/3 share of the two boats. How are they going to invite people?
His two brothers came back late in the evening, and the three brothers hadn't even sat down together to discuss it. How could he have time to follow his aunt and argue?
Deciding who you want to invite early will save you the trouble of having seven aunts and eight other aunties come over to block the person, or the person will be invited by someone else.
Last year, everyone was timid and fearful of running so far that it would be unsafe and something might happen. This year, they all rushed to follow.
When Aunt Ye saw him turning around and leaving, she stamped her feet angrily and muttered angrily, "It's great to be rich, but show off so much style? Someone needs to come over and say it in person..."
Ye Yaodong didn't hear her thoughts at all, and he wouldn't take them to heart if he heard them.
All night long, young adults and old people in the village came to him one after another. He was busy talking to this one, talking to that one, or one came to look for him, and the other came to call him.
He simply arranged the matter of inviting people to his father and asked his father to call for people.
Anyway, among the relatives, his father and his mother are the most familiar with each other. If so-and-so is good at work and reliable, just let them call someone.
However, you can't bring women with you this time. Last time, you only went for a month, so it didn't matter. I don't know how long I'll be there this time, and things can easily go wrong if you bring women with you.
When he talked to his eldest and second brothers, he also told them.
"We know this. When the time comes, we can just do the washing and cooking by ourselves. At most, we can call on one or two more people."
"It's just Dongzi. Is it appropriate for so many people to follow him? Can we still make as much money as we did last year? Will it be so easy to make money?"
"It's hard to say. The flood season hasn't come yet. Who knows what the situation will be? Anyway, with more people, we can share the risk. We can't deliberately sneak away and prevent others from following us? That's it."
However, according to him, the flood season of jellyfish will not be so easy to dry up in the short term, and it will last for several decades before they are caught and cultured. That is also the general environment.
As the population increases, living standards improve, demand is also increasing, and the supply of original ecological things will exceed demand. If there is a market, of course there will be corresponding production chains. Everything is to meet people's needs.
"Well, then we can only take another gamble."
"Originally, we were just gambling when we went to sea. When we set off, we will go to Mazu Temple to worship together."
"Hey, then hurry up and prepare everything you need to prepare in the next two days."
One phone call immediately caused an explosion in their village. It also made their whole family busy, and the village was also a bit uproar.
The flood season is a big event for every fisherman and a good opportunity to make a fortune.
One night, every corner of the village was talking about their going to catch jellyfish, and it was spread that the people in their village who had big boats were going to make a lot of money with Ye Yaodong.
Only the children were still playing innocently, without the worries and calculations of the adults at all.
