Chapter 1047 Return to Longline Fishing (10,000 words, monthly ticket +20)
After sending the people away, Ye Yaodong stood at the door and watched the children playing and running around for a while. There were no adults standing at the door. Most of them stayed at home at night, and some went to sea at night, so they all went to bed early.
, he also went back to the house.
Lin Xiuqing and the old lady were fascinated by watching TV. They could discuss a few words about the plot, but no one turned to look at him.
Ye Yaodong went to the empty room on the first floor, opened the boxes of canned fish again, and counted them.
There were originally 73 boxes in total, with 5 cans of caviar in each box. After repacking, there were seven boxes left, which equals 355 cans.
In addition, he also has a box on hand, which was salvaged together with the box in Director Chen's hand and kept privately. There are also 5 cans in it.
However, one can was opened when the goods were inspected by Lin Ji Shang, and the goods would definitely have to be inspected when the goods were delivered in the evening, so these five cans were kept for now and not counted.
One can is worth 10 yuan, and 355 cans can be sold for 3,550 yuan.
It's not a bad calculation. It's better than nothing, and it's better than wasting it on oneself. With so much, he will have to eat it until the year of the monkey, vomit it, and eat it until it expires.
After calculating it again, he came out satisfied.
All in all, this batch of goods caught can really be sold for 10,000 yuan, which is a profit.
Lower your desires, lower your expectations, don't think about how much others can earn, just count your own gains, and you will be much happier.
In a good mood, he sat next to the two women and watched TV together.
"Why are you shaking your legs? Why are you so happy?"
"I'm glad I'm going to make money again soon."
"Then we should save some squid for drying when the time comes?"
When Lin Xiuqing heard him say that he needed to make money again, she understood that it was going to be the squid flood season again, so it was true that he needed to make money again.
"Yes, if you want dry goods, of course you have to buy all the varieties, but the price is high at the beginning. Wait about five or six days later, and then reserve the goods. The cuttlefish sold very well last year, and the price can be increased a little this year.
.”
"Well, it just so happens that our big ship hasn't gone out to sea, and the workshops have been empty recently. Many people have been asking me when the ship will be repaired."
"I'll take some time tomorrow to call the shipyard and ask."
"Didn't you just ask A Hai? What did he say?"
"It's said that the factory is rushing to meet the delivery deadline and can only free up a master and an apprentice to repair it. It's not that fast, not to mention that we have three ships repaired together. I'll make a call tomorrow and ask them to repair the captured ones first.
That one."
"Then when you go out to sea tomorrow morning, remember to bring the throwing net with you. There are 5 of them. You can bring them as you like. If it's not enough, I'll buy some netting cables and come back in a few days and weave two more by myself. Anyway, my boat doesn't have enough.
Once it’s repaired, the workshop won’t be too busy, just do it yourself instead of asking others to do it.”
The hand-thrown nets on the big ship are not far away from being scrapped. I mentioned it to her some time ago and asked her to arrange to knit a few nets and put them there for later use. Now that it is the flood season, it is just in time to use them.
"I know, I'll take it and put it on the cart first so as not to forget it."
Lin Xiuqing also stood up and followed him outside.
After preparing all the things he would take on board the ship tomorrow, Ye Yaodong also went to sleep in the unused room on the first floor early.
He couldn't stand the noise of the two little guys, and he had to get up at night to get caviar for Lin Jishang, so it was best to sleep in this room alone.
Fortunately, Lin Xiuqing had already gotten out of bed today, made the bed, and the bedding still smelled like sunshine.
With something else on his mind, Ye Yaodong also woke up intermittently, making an appointment from ten to twelve o'clock. He estimated that he should arrive around ten o'clock.
The weather hasn't completely warmed up yet, let alone 10 o'clock, at 8 o'clock the village is almost quiet and no one is around, and even the children of each family have been taken home to sleep.
After sleeping for several times, when the time came to early 10 o'clock, he immediately got up, quietly opened the door and went out, trying to keep the sound of opening the door to a minimum to reduce the squeaking sound.
Then he sat alone at the gate of the yard, smoking quietly and waiting. Looking at the dark sea and the rolling waves, he thought about the huge typhoon this year, but he had a vague impression that it did not directly impact them.
Here, however, it has also been greatly affected.
The main reason is that today's houses are relatively old and dilapidated. Some old people live in houses that are no better than pig pens. Even a slightly stronger typhoon can blow away the roof.
If the house were like the one in the future, there would be nothing to be afraid of. Typhoons in general can only be regarded as drizzle. When a super typhoon comes, as long as the doors and windows are closed, there is nothing to be afraid of.
After thinking for a while, he couldn't figure out which month it was, so he simply stopped thinking about it. Anyway, the soldiers would block it, and the water and soil would cover it. It would be better if he didn't face the attack directly.
He sat at the entrance of the courtyard for a while, and sure enough, at just 10:30, he saw a black figure in the distance pushing a cart over, and the grunting sound of the axle was particularly harsh in the silent night.
Fortunately, there was the sound of the waves and the occasional rolling, which covered up the sound of the wheels turning.
"I thought I had to knock on the door when I came over, but I didn't expect you to be quite on time."
"I thought you were at this point last time, so I calculated the time and got up."
"Push it in directly or leave it at the door?"
"Put it at the door. There are only 7 boxes in total. The sound of your axle turning is a bit loud at night. If you want to push it into the yard, the elderly at home will probably get up. I will just go in and move it out."
"oh."
General Lin Ji put the car at the door, followed him in, and then stopped in the yard, waiting for him to move out.
When the dog at his feet came in from Linji, he immediately raised his ears and circled around him. His nose sniffed back and forth at the trouser leg, and then shook the hair on his body.
Before entering the house, Ye Yaodong also turned around and lowered his voice, reminding the dogs to go back to their kennels before moving the boxes.
But no matter how gentle and cautious he was, he still disturbed the old lady in the next room.
As people get older, they sleep less, and her ears are very sharp. If there is any disturbance at night, she will feel like a thief, and she will immediately sit up alertly and quietly look out the window.
Obviously Dongzi was going to sea early the next morning, but not tonight. Where was the movement at this night?
Through the moonlight, I really saw a dark figure, and the courtyard door was still open. After a while, I saw another person from home carrying a large box of things into the courtyard.
The two exchanged words secretly, and then the sound of heavy objects falling on the trolley was also heard by the old lady with sharp ears.
Her first reaction was that there were two thieves moving things around. She was so panicked that she didn't know what to do. She walked around the room and found that there was only one crutch she could use.
She quietly opened the door a little, and the main room was dark. Then she heard the sound of moving things in the room where dried fish was stored next door, and she suddenly felt nervous and panicked.
As she moved two steps lightly and raised the crutch in her hand, she suddenly thought that Ah Qing had wiped the bed in this room today and made it.
Dongzi has been sleeping these days to avoid being disturbed by the children.
The old lady held the crutch high and slowly lowered it. She thought that this was not the first time that Ye Yaodong had been sneaking around in the middle of the night. She was worried that it was him again. After all, he slept in this house at night. How could a thief get into the room?
And don't know.
She was afraid of scaring someone in the middle of the night and worried that it might be a thief, so she didn't dare to speak out.
After only hesitating for a moment, Ye Yaodong had already moved another box of goods out. When he walked to the door, he saw a dark figure standing by the door. He was startled immediately, and a box of cans in his hand was directly smashed into the door.
He threw it out.
"Oh, my God, no, it's my ancestor. Why are you up here so late at night and scaring me?"
"Oh, it's okay, it's okay..." The old lady quickly reached out and patted his chest several times.
"I heard some movement in the middle of the night, and I got up to take a look uneasy, but I was afraid of scaring you, so I kept silent. I wanted to see if it was you or a thief."
"Who told you not to do anything during the day if you have something to do all day long? Instead of doing things there in the middle of the night from time to time, I thought you were really being robbed. Why didn't you even turn on the light?"
Ye Yaodong glared at her angrily, then pulled the power cord, looked at the scattered cans thrown to him on the ground, and squatted down to pick them up one by one.
Lin Jishang heard the movement in the room, turned on the light again, and walked in, "What's wrong?"
"I was almost scared to death. I stood at the door with the lights on. It was scary. It would really scare people to death."
Lin Xiuqing also heard the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground outside, as if something had been knocked over. She also saw the light outside through the crack in the door, so she put on her coat and opened the door to take a look.
"It's late at night, what are you doing if you don't sleep?"
"You all go to bed in your bed. He wants to buy dried fish and will leave early tomorrow morning. I have to go to sea early in the morning and am not free, so he came over at night to move the goods. I will give him these cans by the way." Ye Yaodong was half serious.
Said half-falsely.
"I came here to move the goods in the middle of the night. I thought someone was standing in the yard. It was so dark that I couldn't see anyone and the lights weren't turned on..." The old lady muttered a few words.
"It's only 10 o'clock, it's already midnight, you go to bed."
Lin Xiuqing looked at the caviar all over the floor and understood. The canned fish were all sold out, and these would only be caviar. I had heard him mention it before, and she would see if she wanted it when they came back.
You can move without making a sound at night, and it doesn't matter if you turn on the light secretly, so as not to scare your own people.
"Have you finished moving? Do you want help?"
"No, we can just move it by ourselves. You can go to sleep."
Lin Xiuqing was worried that people would feel uncomfortable seeing them around, so she went back to her room first, planning to question her again after they left.
The old lady also slowly returned to the room, turning back three times at a time.
Ye Yaodong also picked up a box of goods scattered on the ground and handed it to Lin Jishang, "Sure enough, I still have a guilty conscience. If I had known better, I would have turned on the light directly, so I wouldn't have to worry about any movement."
"I don't feel guilty, it's you who feel guilty."
"Okay, okay, I feel guilty. There are only a few boxes of goods in total. Let's finish moving them quickly. You can look through them and open two cans."
"You're going to fool me?"
