Chapter 957 Arrangement to Build a Building (7000 Words)

The eldest cousin and Brother A Sheng were a little confused when they were called over temporarily. Originally, they were planting fields and chopping firewood.

But Father Ye suddenly appeared and called them, asking them to come over.

They asked if he wanted to go to sea, but he only said no, because he had other things to do and asked them to come first.

Both of them were a little worried. If they were not shouting out to the sea, then there was something important, right?

They are very satisfied with the current situation and hope nothing will change. They had to pay extra money to fish for jellyfish in Zhejiang Province, which is 90 yuan a month.

The local boatman's salary is 60 yuan a month on a regular basis. Most of them are doing odd jobs. Most of them do a little work here and a little there at home, hiring anyone who has a job, and they don't make much money.

Now that I'm back and have no work, of course I still get sixty yuan a month. Where can I find such a good thing?

Even if we go to sea, half a month is a lot. Then the weather gets cooler and the wind blows every three days, so ten days a month is pretty good.

They had been resting for many days since they came back. Now that they were walking all the way, they were a little unsure about why they were called here.

I just heard that Dongzi bought a piece of land. Could it be related to the land purchase?

I just bought the land, so I called them over...

But Father Ye was walking beside him, and they were too embarrassed to discuss it, so they could only follow them in silence.

Ye Yaodong looked at the serious expressions on the two people's faces and smiled, "Why are you so serious?"

The eldest cousin just stepped into the door and heard this. He rubbed his cheek and said with a smile: "Really? I can't just laugh while walking on the road. People who don't know think I picked up money."

Brother Ah Sheng also smiled and said, "We have just stepped in."

"My father didn't tell you why he asked you to come here?"

"No, my uncle was very mysterious. He asked if he was going to sea, and then he said no. He only said he would wait until he came, which made us afraid to ask. We kept wondering why he called us here."

"Good things are coming to you. Sit down and talk."

As soon as they said the good thing, the two of them relaxed, and a thought flashed through their minds.

Before they could think about it carefully, Ye Yaodong said straight to the point: "I just bought a piece of land. I will plan it after a while and prepare to use it. I also plan to build another floor on the house at home. My father and I have no relationship." With so much energy, each person can drive a boat to take you out."

Their eyes lit up. Nowadays, it is difficult to order ships from shipyards. Even if you want to buy a new ship, it is difficult to buy one. It would be best if you can rent a ship for a while and save more money.

Seeing their happy expressions, Ye Yaodong continued: "I discussed with my father and planned to put a boat out for rent like the Aguang family. Anyway, you have been working with us for a long time. I also believe it. Everyone They are all relatives, not outsiders."

"It's hard for you two to rent to anyone alone, so just you two can rent together? Is that okay?"

The two looked at each other and nodded repeatedly. They had been working together for two months and they were in harmony, so there was no problem.

The eldest cousin happily told the truth, "I wish we finally had the chance. Haha, I heard from people in the village that the shipyard's delivery date is now scheduled for the year after next. It's hard to even buy a boat. This boat is now available." I don’t know how popular it is, hahaha~”

Brother A Sheng also had a smile on his face, "Yeah, when I came here just now, I was worried that something was wrong. I was also worried that I wouldn't even have a job and would have to find another job. I didn't expect that the boat would be rented to us. This was too much. Okay, haha~"

"When I want to rent a boat, I will definitely think of you first. Is it possible to return it to someone else? We are all cousins, not outsiders. When my big boat is delivered by the end of the year, I will rent another boat to you. , when the time comes, you will each have a boat and make your own arrangements."

The two of them became even happier, and the smiles on their faces deepened.

"Okay, okay, thank you very much."

"Thank you. We must follow the rules and don't mess around."

Ye Yaodong smiled and nodded, "I believe you. Anyway, we will follow A Guang's previous regulations, 50-50 split. The expenses, labor, maintenance, etc. on the ship are all your responsibility. I don't care, I only care. Divide it in half.”

"It should."

"What others do, we do too."

"Well, when we dock, my dad and I will go and pick up the goods. Whoever is at home will pick up the goods. If we are both busy and don't have time to go over there and wait in advance, I will also ask Ah Cai to pick up the goods."

"Okay, okay, then we can go to sea tonight. We have been playing at home for many days, and we are all anxious. I just heard that you bought the land, and I wanted to come over and ask you when you are going to go to sea."

Brother Ah Sheng also echoed, "I also thought that since you have bought this land, you probably don't have anything else to do, and it's almost time to go to sea, so I just asked Third Uncle before."

"The weather should be fine tomorrow. You guys have had enough rest. Let's go in the evening. Go early and make money early. There is no way to make money if you stay at home."

"Okay, you can also go to the boat and have a look later. If there is anything useful that will be moved to another boat, we will also have a look later and fill up the oil by the way and prepare it in advance."

"I'll go take a look later. It should be gone. When I come back, most of the things on the boat have been moved off. Most of the things I use are on the boat I'm looking at."

Those barrels, frames, etc., they also brought back on the cart when they returned home. If they had been put on the boat and left there, no one would have known who had stolen them.

The eldest cousin and Brother Asheng will also have to prepare their own containers for loading. Anyway, the boat is rented to them and the fishing nets are available. They have to bring everything else by themselves.

"Okay, okay."

Lin Xiuqing saw that what they had said was almost complete, and handed them the wages for the past few days.

"This is the wages for the past few days since I came back. Including today, there are six days in total. The average is two yuan per day, so the wages are 12 yuan per person. You can count them."

The two opened their mouths, but neither took the initiative to take it. Instead, they looked at each other.

"Uh...this..."

When Lin Xiuqing saw that they didn't take it over, she put it on the table in front of them and said, "Take it, you can't change the agreement. If you don't work, you will be paid on a monthly basis."

The eldest cousin said hesitantly: "No need, right? Your boat has been rented to us. We have been playing there these days and have not done any work, so don't count the wages. We have already earned it when we came back from Zhejiang Province." It’s a lot of wages, and you can also get a red envelope, so that’s fine.”

Brother Asheng also nodded, "Yeah, we haven't done anything to help these days. It would be better if we went to sea immediately. We haven't gone to sea now. They even rented the boat to us directly. We didn't have the nerve to ask for it before. , equal to a white-collar worker."

"One yard is a yard, and no work means no work. But we have agreed that wages will be calculated monthly, so let's follow the regulations. Take it, we can do whatever we want. We are not outsiders, so you are welcome."

Ye Yaodong picked up the money and put it in their hands again, and then changed the topic.

"The handle of your boat is still in the yard. I'll bring it to you when you leave later."

The two of them stood up with the money in their hands and wanted to return it, but following his words, they nodded in agreement.

"This money..."

Ye Yaodong pushed their shoulders away without taking them, "Since the matter has been agreed, you should go back and prepare some things on the boat so that you can go to sea at night."

"Dongzi..."

"Goodbye, Dongzi. I'll get you the rocker and the key to the cabin."

Who doesn't love money? In fact, the two of them really wanted to accept it, but they just felt that they couldn't save face. After all, they had just received benefits, so it would not be good to accept it like this.

Now that he was pushing her out like this, I had no choice but to accept it.

"Then we will shamelessly accept it, thank you very much."

"You're welcome, that's how it should be."

"No, no, it doesn't matter if you don't give me the money. We already have it."

"Everyone has said that one code must be the same, so hurry up and get busy. I have to get busy too."

"Okay, okay, then we won't disturb your business."

The two of them thanked him again and again before leaving.

After Father Ye and others left, he stood in the yard and whispered, "I'm really at a loss. I haven't worked in the past few days. I have to pay more than 20 yuan for staying at home."

"There is still hard work without credit. Think of it this way, dad. They have also helped us a lot. Anyway, I am not short of a few days' wages. If I do a better job on the surface, people will be more grateful in their hearts. "

"We should give it if we know it. We can't let others talk about it. It's just a pity to let others have something to say."

"Okay, that's it. If you have nothing to do, go to the dock and have a look on the boat. If there is anything missing, take it to my boat."

"Then I'll go out and take a look."

After sending his father away, Ye Yaodong also became quiet.

He stood in the yard and stretched, "Finally done! Go back and lie down."

"Why are you lying down? The land on the hillside by the back door is still waiting for you to dig through it and plant some vegetables in your free time. I just picked all the beans on it a few days ago, and the bamboo frame I built was dismantled, leaving only Turn the ground over."

"The pile of seeds in your grandma's hand has been there for several days. Seeing that you leave early and come home late, she didn't call you. She just touched the soil eight times a day. Yesterday, when we were not at home, she secretly Picked up the hoe and went to dig up the ground in the yard."

The old lady sat at the door and laughed, "It's okay, don't worry, you go in first and sleep for a while, and then do it later."

Ye Yaodong also saw that all the potatoes originally grown in the yard had been hoeed out, a basket was piled in the corner, and nylon bags were used to cover them.

"Can you finish eating? Plant so much all day long?"

"She wants to grow lettuce, radish, sun-dried lettuce, dried radish, and sweet potatoes. At the end of the year, she will make sweet potato starch. The sweet potatoes will be delicious all year round."

"While you are not doing anything at home, plow the ground for her first and plant the seeds, so that you don't have to sneak up and plant them yourself."

"And we really need to plant more now. If we build a house or a workshop later, we will hire workers to take care of the food. Then we will have vegetables for people to eat. No matter how much we plant now, it is too much."

"I know, go and read it now."

The old lady followed him and muttered, "It's not that important. It's not that urgent. It's okay to be two days late..."

"It's not that important. It's not that urgent. It doesn't matter if it's two days late. Then why did you turn over all the ground here?"

"Haha... I just wanted to be at home alone and have nothing to do..."

"You come here alone if you want. No one will care about you anyway. It's just a good time to stretch your muscles."

"hehe……"

Ye Yaodong picked up the hoe, avoided the old lady, and went to the back door, thinking that he could lie down after the work was done, but now he could only plant the land first.

"I'll get you some seeds..."

"Wait a minute. I'll hoe those useless vines first and plow them over before planting them."

If he had known earlier, he would have gone to the dock and left his father behind. His father also loved farming.

The skills are the same and the interests are the same, so it would be more appropriate to swap them.

Ye Yaodong had been busy farming in the middle of the morning. When Lin Xiuqing called him to have lunch, he remembered that he could ask those boys to do it!

Those two stayed in the workshop during the day and looked at the dried fish. They were idle. Wouldn't it be good to order them around?

It's a pity, he has already done most of it, and all he needs to do is bury the seeds. If he asks others to do it again, wouldn't that mean picking his peach?

So after lunch, he continued to sow the seeds without complaint. Even when his father wanted to take over, he refused.

Just kidding, he is now a model worker!

But before he finished sowing, the uninvited guests came again. However, he was sowing on the hillside and didn't hear any sound. He only heard Ah Qing talk about it after he finished his work.

"My eldest aunt just came over again. She heard that we bought another piece of land and asked us to call Brother Afan if we have work. She said that he has been resting at home for several days and has not found any work."

"Just looking for a job? Nothing else?"

"After asking about it, he asked us if we bought anything besides land? We also asked if there are not two shops in the city? Is there a shortage of people in the shop?"

Ye Yaodong pursed his lips, "I'm really good at thinking about it."

"I sent her away. I just said there was something alive and she could scream. I haven't figured out how to arrange the land yet. Seeing that she didn't believe it, I didn't care about her."

"Don't worry about her. If you have something bad to say, just blame it on me."

"I think so too. Apart from my neighbors, she has been running around our house the most frequently lately."

"Second aunt is quite able to sit still and stay in the back."

"It's not that the whole family doesn't stay in the same house. The eldest uncle and auntie like to go on a rampage and take action immediately after thinking about something. The second uncle and the second aunt like to point fingers behind their backs."

Ye Yaodong looked at her curiously, "Did you know all this?"

Lin Xiuqing gave him a blank look, "How many years have I been married? Didn't you see people clearly before? Didn't you see them clearly after dad's boat was repaired two years ago?"

"That's true. If Brother Asheng can use the boat I rented to him to earn more money and marry a wife, he can live alone and live alone, and his life will be more comfortable."

"Don't worry about others. Now that you're done with your work, go take a nap. Your daughter has just fallen asleep, so I'll go and stay with her."

"Okay, baby, I'm here."

Ye Yaodong immediately took off his clothes as he walked. When he arrived at the door of the room, he was already shirtless.

In the evening, Aguang happily ran over to him and told him that he went to the city to order four ships today, but the delivery date was the year after next.

The latest will be the end of the next year, during which time one line will be completed and the other will be delivered.

"The shipyard in the city has a wide range of business, and so many groups have been scheduled until the end of the year."

"Indeed, when we went there, there were a lot of people visiting the factory, and some came to check on the progress. I also saw that the master craftsmen inside were building a boat over thirty meters long. I heard it would cost tens of thousands. ."

"The shipyards in our county should not be able to build such a big ship. I have been to the county several times and I have never seen anyone building such a big ship."

"Probably, it looks awesome anyway."

"I bought my first boat from Uncle Jingye's friend. His friend had heard that he wanted to partner with others to build a 30-meter boat, so he sold the boat to me."

"If you are really rich, you can build a big ship all of a sudden."

"How is that possible? There is no guarantee. There are more than a dozen people in a partnership. The partners board the ship together and work together. There is no need to invite outsiders."

Aguang looked at him with shining eyes, "Dongzi, when will you do something as big as this?"

Ye Yaodong glared at him, "Why don't you do something so big? You are richer than me."

As for the current shipbuilding technology, even if he has money, he will not engage in it because his life is at stake.

At any rate, we have to wait a few years before the shipbuilding technology becomes more mature and the equipment becomes more complete.

Moreover, the money he saved was not enough. He only had tens of thousands of yuan to buy this and that. After dividing it up, he only had half left. How could he buy a boat?

If dozens of people were to form a partnership, it would be a big deal. A large group of people would have to discuss and resolve any big deal.

"Shit, just touch your little conscience and say, you are richer than me, okay?"

"Big conscience, I have big breasts, so of course I have a big conscience."

"That big ship is really long, and it looks awesome."

"You have earned more money in the past few years. If you save enough, you can buy one. It will be glorious and let me take advantage of it."

"Then please help me make more money."

Ye Yaodong changed the irrelevant topic, "How much did you pay for the boat?"

"Three thousand six hundred yuan, which is not much different from the ones in the county. I heard from the folks in the county that the asking price is 3,500 yuan. It is normal that the price in the city is a little higher. I have been mentally prepared for it."

Ye Yaodong: "..."

It’s better not to attack him anymore and buy everything.

Yesterday I forgot to tell him how much he bought the boat. I guess Aguang had preconceptions. Hearing the villagers say 3,500 yuan a boat, he also thought he bought it for 3,500 yuan a boat.

However, it’s normal to be a little more expensive in the city, and it’s good to be able to deliver it the year after next.

"When you went to see Uncle Zhou last night, didn't the folks go to see him?"

"I don't know. When I stood up after drinking yesterday, I felt very sober. When I went out and the wind blew, my head was confused. Fortunately, I remembered to go to Uncle Zhou's house and told him. I didn't ask any more questions. Go home and sleep quickly.”

"That should be discussed one by one. I must have thought about finishing the job at hand before going, and then waiting one by one, so I didn't find Uncle Zhou immediately."

"Maybe, that's how it is when there are a lot of people. You say something to me, you have something to do, I have something to do, and I won't be able to wait for a while. Anyway, let me catch up and intercept them, and ignore them."

Ye Yaodong asked again: "Did you go to my father-in-law's place again? I was only thinking about buying land this morning and forgot to call him."

"It's okay. Anyway, he knows me. My father and I went there the day before. When we were chatting, your father-in-law was also there. We went there to talk in the morning and were about to leave. Unexpectedly, we happened to meet a man yesterday. Those who didn’t have time to come will still have to sell their shops.”

"But he said that he bought it when the price increased later. It cost 3,500 per store. If it is not sold at a price lower than this now, my father and I will not buy it. I plan to come back and ask you first."

Ye Yaodong explained to him, "At that time, the stores in this market were released in batches. I bought one first, and then I bought another one with my eldest and second brothers at the same time. Then I said at that time that the stores that would be released later would be the same. price goes up."

"It's probably because of the price increase. If you compare it, no one wants to buy it. So the market is also cunning. I have selected most of the stores in good locations and only put a few out for lottery."

A Guang suddenly realized.

"So that's it."

"What number are you selling?"

"No. 4, so we don't think it's worth it."

"Actually, it's not bad. If you want to buy it, you can buy it. I also bought one. The quality of the store location also depends on what is sold and who is the audience. As I said before, No. 4 It’s the entrance for goods, so it’s most suitable to be used as a warehouse or to sell breakfast from night to early morning.”

"If I want to buy in the future, I might not be able to do so. If the surrounding area is more lively, the price will definitely rise again. These people are short-sighted, and they think that the location of the exit is not good, too remote, and busy. There was no excitement in that direction, and I thought it was useless, so I thought of changing money quickly to stop the loss."

"My father and I thought we would wait and see. Who told you to buy it so cheaply yesterday, otherwise we wouldn't have to worry about it."

"We were also lucky yesterday. One of us was honest and determined to sell at the original price, while the other two were hesitant and finally convinced me to move."

After Ye Yaodong finished speaking, he thought for a moment and then said, "If you want to wait and see, don't wait and see for too long."

"Let's go back and discuss it. Today we saw that some streets in the city are also very lively. There are people repairing clocks, selling ancestral antiques, and selling groceries. Some have directly converted old houses into workshops, and they have machines at home. I keep spinning around and don’t know what to do. There are also sideshows on the roadside, so I’m thinking, is it okay to buy an old house on the street?”

"If you can buy it, of course it would be better. After all, it is a city with many people."

"Oh, I'll think about it later. It's too troublesome. I'm so entangled in spending money. It's better to make money and save trouble. Just do it in one go."

"When we spend money now, we make money."

"We'll go shopping tomorrow. If we can't buy it, we won't buy it. We'll save more in two years. Anyway, we've bought four more boats, and we can't just waste our time on this."

"Okay."

Anyway, times don’t change that fast. Take your time, accumulate capital, and make money first.

In a few years, it would be too late to consider buying a house or a shop, and it would not necessarily force them to go to the market. Aguang himself was smart enough to look around the streets.

"If nothing goes wrong and the engagement is called off the day after tomorrow, my father may go to sea that night. He has stayed at home for a long enough time, and he himself will be anxious."

"That's okay. A day without going to sea is a day lost. It just so happens that the weather has been good in the past few days."

"Well, and the Harvest can earn a lot in one day, the weather may not be the same a few days later. It's okay, I'm going back."

"Stay here to eat. It's time to order and the food is cooked."

"It's almost ready at home. I came here at short notice. My third sister-in-law definitely didn't cook more for me. You will have to eat two less bites each of you later. I'd better go home and eat. I'm leaving."

"Then I won't keep you."

After the people left, Lin Xiuqing said happily: "Isn't the purchase of our boat and shop worth it?"

"So I'm smart. This is the result of being one step ahead. Anyway, it's a good thing to be able to buy it. Let the little brat run to my hometown and call my parents over for dinner."

"Um."

Father Ye didn't say anything when he heard what he said about A Guang coming over at night. He felt relieved knowing that the Harvest would go to sea the day after tomorrow.

After they finished eating, they took advantage of Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua's return from sea to discuss building a house.

Before, he thought that he would leave it to his eldest and second brothers to arrange it, but now that he has obtained the land, he wants to try to get both of them done before the year.

There is a regulation on when to build the house. There are three houses next to each other. The three of them have to discuss at the same time when to build the house. Only after it is completed can he arrange the fish sauce workshop.

In this way, when he comes back with a big ship before the year and goes to sea after the new year, he can bring back the groceries and continue making them. Depending on the sales situation, he can expand the scale of fermentation.

His eldest brother and second brother were also impatient and had a lot of money, so they thought of getting things done quickly, so that their family could be considered in the limelight and accomplish something important.

After the three of them hit it off, they immediately asked Ye's mother to take time tomorrow to watch the construction start.

Then I asked Father Ye to find a senior teacher tomorrow to come over and take a look at how many red bricks, how many load-bearing beams on the second floor, and how many wooden boards are going to be used for the second floor floor. The quantities must be calculated in advance before they go Find someone to customize.

The tiles on the roof can be taken down and reused when the time comes. If they are damaged or missing, just add some more.

The four heads of the family discussed it until they turned off the lights and dispersed, and then Father Ye went back with a smile that couldn't close his mouth.

Ye Yaodong felt that his father hadn't even drunk yet, and he started to feel sluggish when walking.

His three sons have all built buildings, his son-in-law is successful, his mother-in-law and daughter have decent jobs, and he has a large group of grandchildren. He feels that he has reached the peak of his life.

In fact, he felt like he was almost drifting when he walked...

But hold on, where is this?

He is just preparing to build a building. He has not even booked a tractor yet. It is still very early to live in a villa with the basic configuration BBA. The goal is still far away. He must not be drunk by the ecstasy soup of the villagers.

Thinking of this, he suddenly woke up again and stopped kicking the dog at his feet. Looking at the old-fashioned short bungalow, he felt that he still had a long way to go.
