Chapter 1065 Discussion at the dinner table(1/3)

After the children stopped making noise at home, the couple suddenly felt peaceful and comfortable.

Only the old lady felt uncomfortable and would turn around to look for her from time to time.

"Send them off now and bring them back later. Why go to all this trouble? Why don't you just find something for them to play with?"

"Be quiet."

After the old lady muttered for a while, seeing that the couple ignored her, she wisely shut her mouth, then replaced the batteries in the radio and prepared to listen to the radio.

This one can be used both by plug-in and battery. If there is a power outage and the power cannot be plugged in, you can just replace the battery and listen. It is also good to listen while working.

"How many more days until the new tomb worship service?"

Ye Yaodong stood up and looked at the calendar hanging on the wall, "There are still 7 days."

"Oh, don't worry about that."

"When the time comes, I'll go to my fat father-in-law to order a pig head and pig tail in advance."

"Okay, okay, then I'll make a few bowls of whatever chicken, duck, or fish you like and take them up the mountain."

Lin Xiuqing interrupted and changed the subject: "Would you like to see if their circuits have been repaired? Go there early and wait to be invited over..."

"Go and pull the light cord and you will know if it has been repaired. If Dad waits there and it is repaired, he will bring it over. If it is not repaired, he will bring it over when the time comes."

"Oh, dad is watching over there, that's good."

After a while, Ye's mother also came over after work, and was shocked when she saw his bare head.

When she came over for dinner this morning, he had already gone out, and she didn't know that he had shaved his head last night.

"Ah!" She stared and took another look before she recognized her son. "What are you doing? You should shave your head properly. It would be unlucky to shave your head after being released from prison..."

Ye Yaodong reached out and touched his head, "It's okay, cool down."

"How do you go out and meet people like this? Before, you were wearing a strange hat, covering your face with only one eye exposed. You looked like a ghost. Now you shave your head, don't know anything, and are messing around...

"

"Why do you care what others think? I'll do whatever makes me feel comfortable."

"Comfort...comfortably twist your head. When you go out to the street, when people see you, they will think you are released from prison and they will have to hide and walk away."

Ye Yaodong patted his forehead and his eyes lit up, "What a great idea! Let all the boys at home shave their heads and go to the city to deliver goods. Let's see who dares to make up their minds on the way. The ruthless man who just came out of the prison. I met him on the way.

You have to avoid it when you arrive!"

Mother Ye's face was full of disgust and she frowned, "What the hell is this idea?"

"That's a good idea, hahaha."

Lin Xiuqing couldn't help but smile and said: "Then when you go to Zhejiang Province next month to fish for jellyfish, let everyone shave their heads. By then, a lot of you will be bald. If you walk on the pier, who will

You have to hide, how can you dare to provoke the local second-rate people? It will be safer if you look at them."

Ye Yaodong laughed happily, "A group of ruthless people released from the prison can really scare people on the dock. However, when we have hundreds of people there, no local gangsters dare to provoke us. After all, people

There are many and there are guns.”

"Isn't it possible to get twice the result with half the effort if you go bareheaded? It's more likely to scare people."

"That's right, hahaha... I'll let them all shave their heads by then. Anyway, they'll be able to grow into bald heads after a month. It's also cool to have a bald head, so you don't have to fish all your hair out of the pickle vat every day.

It's the same thing, it's sour and smelly, so it would be easier to have no hair."

"What's the benefit of shaving your head?" Ye Mu said angrily.

"Yes."

He really thought it would be wise to shave his head before going out, so he called for a barber and shaved everyone's head the night before departure.

"Mom, did you call everyone yesterday? Let me add something to them. Before setting off next month, I will ask someone to come over and shave their heads, so that their hair will not look like straw. It will save trouble to be outside without hair.

It also saves you the trouble of washing your hair.”

"Are you serious?"

"Of course, I don't want them to pay for it. I'll pay for the haircut."

"Is this a matter of money? Forget it, it's not that embarrassing if a group of people shave together and have a companion. When the rain stops, we can go door to door and talk about it."

"They are all from their own village. Everyone knows the basics. There is nothing to laugh at and no one will misunderstand anything. When we go out, it doesn't matter. No one knows anyone. We can come wherever it is convenient and we will grow up when we come back."

"Well...every day, my mind is full of ghost ideas..."

After mumbling for a while, Mother Ye planned to check if the food was ready, only to find that the table was already full of food.

She was surprised and said, "Why, you are having a hard time? To prepare such a big table, you have to invite the whole village to eat?"

"I'm going to invite Captain Chen and the others who came over to repair the circuit to have a meal. I'll also invite the village officials to talk about raising kelp."

"Do you really want one? Does anyone want it? What did you say on the phone this morning?"

After knowing that we were going to invite someone to dinner, Mother Ye also rolled up her sleeves to help with the arrangements, asking questions while doing so.

Ye Yaodong probably told her that if she was free in the afternoon, he would spread the word and send it to the workshop when the weather cleared. As much as she wanted, it was still 6 cents.

"How much do you want? What if I bring over all my relatives' belongings?"

"You want them all, I've said it all. Ten thousand kilograms is not too much, the more the merrier."

A tractor can only carry 5 tons at most. If the amount is larger than this, then hire another tractor to transport it.

"That's so much, 5 tons... It really needs to be spread farther to be harvested. Otherwise, who can show off so much? Are you sure you can sell it?"

"Um."

If he collects 5 tons, the cost is only 600 yuan, but if he can sell it for 1,500 yuan, he can earn 800 to 900 yuan if he resells it. The profit is very high. It is much faster than making a few cents in a store.

It took half a year to sell the fish sauce for only 6,500 yuan, barely recouping the original investment. The sales of kelp were much faster. Unfortunately, we can only do this now and have to wait until next year.

No wonder people say that the quantity should be as large as possible, even tens of thousands of kilograms is not too much. After all, it is seasonal, and the harvest is only one or two months a year. The dry goods will not go bad if they are stored, so you can just stock up and sell them slowly.

What's more, people probably use it for wholesale.

"It's dried fish, it's a boat, it's kelp... It's so good at doing things like that. There's no one in the whole village who can do it better than you..."

Ye Yaodong was too lazy to listen to his mother's nagging, "You help here, I'll go out and see if they are getting better soon."

After saying that, the person also walked out of the door.

There was no rain at this time, only a few drops, so he no longer held an umbrella or wore a raincoat, since he was bald anyway.

If you have a big head and a big head, you don't have to worry about it raining. Others have umbrellas, but he has a big head.

When he was halfway there, he saw his father coming towards him from a distance with a group of people, everyone talking and laughing.

He went up to meet him.

"Is it fixed?"

Father Ye said: "Not yet. We are short of cables, so I asked people to buy them. It's time for dinner now, so I asked them to come over for dinner first. It's too late to start work after dinner."

"Then let's go eat first. The food is almost ready. I'm afraid it won't be that fast. I plan to go over and let you eat before we start."

"Haha, I have to shamelessly go to your house for dinner again. I will buy the cable later and repair it and we will have electricity soon."

"What's so shameless about this? We're all old acquaintances. We all know each other so well. It's rare for you to come to our village, but you still come to help. You should say hello well. You can stay at my place for a few days."

"Haha, just stay here. After the rain stops and the circuit here is repaired, I still have tasks."

A group of them walked to the beach talking and laughing. When people nearby heard the noise, some ran to the door and came out to have a look, and some opened the windows and stuck their heads out to take a look.

Everyone was talking about his bald head. How could he not see such a striking bald head? But everyone was polite and asked without opening their mouths.

Ye Yaodong also took the opportunity to paraphrase what he had just said to his mother in the room, which made everyone admire his clever idea.

Even Secretary Chen said that it would be convenient for all the other fishing boats to have their heads shaved, which would also make the team appear larger and make outsiders more fearful.

He nodded in agreement repeatedly and was enjoying the conversation.

After the food was served at home, the atmosphere became even more lively, and he also called his eldest and second brothers over to accompany the guests.

As for the children who came back from school, Lin Xiuqing left food for them in advance, allowing them to carry it to the door or upstairs to eat.

They couldn't wait to do this, so they would go out to visit each other with a rice bowl in hand.

As for Ye Xiaoxi and Pei Yu, no one in the room thought of taking them back, and the Pei family didn't deliberately send their children back.

When you are tired of eating your own food, you will feel extra delicious when eating other people's food. Ye Xiaoxi is also very happy staying at Pei's house, eating deliciously, and does not clamor to come back.

After three drinks, Ye Yaodong told the village chief and village secretary about raising kelp when the atmosphere was getting lively.

"You want to raise kelp?" Both of them said in unison in surprise.

"I'm not raising them. I want you to organize the villagers to raise them. You can ask four or five people to try raising them on a small scale."

"How to raise this? Besides, does anyone want kelp? No one wants kelp here. When the season comes, we can just pick it up from the sea. Where else do we need to buy it?"

"I want as much as I can grow it. Now that the rain has stopped, after dinner, I will ask my mother to go to the village to advertise that I want as much kelp as everyone has on hand."

The village chief and Secretary Chen looked at each other in confusion, feeling a little confused and unable to understand his intention.

Ye Yaodong continued to add, recounting what they had discussed at their dinner table yesterday about the prospects of raising kelp, as well as "individual prosperity drives collective prosperity."
To be continued...
