Ye Yaodong had a meal and sat at Director Chen's house, chatted for a few words, and then left so as not to disturb others' lunch break. Anyway, the purpose of the trip was achieved and the reward was received.

Father Ye was also very happy. As soon as he went out, he couldn't help but said: "You have already hung two flags on the wall. Now you have a red book and a pen as a reward. It's so glorious. I didn't expect that I just caught a bomb."

There will be a reward if you come up."

"Of course, that is also a strategic material, and it belongs to the enemy. Regardless of whether it is useful or not, it must be praised for handing it over. It cannot dampen the enthusiasm of the fishermen. I heard that the fishermen in the South China Sea are chasing after foreign fishing boats to fish for treasures.

If you pay, that’s called honor, what does this mean to me?”

"Real or false? What the newspaper said?"

"yes."

"I didn't expect that there would be everything in the sea. There are so many different kinds of things."

"I don't even think about it. 70% of the world's ocean area is occupied by land. In ancient times, many ships sank into the sea. Aren't there many treasures in the sea?"

Aguang also agreed, "Isn't it? In the past two years, a lot of porcelain was salvaged from the sea near our village."

"Don't you still have that thing for diving? I got another set some time ago. I'll take a look at it when I go into the water. Maybe there are any good things."

Ye's father was very excited. After tasting the sweetness, he no longer felt that it was dangerous to go underwater, and he even thought about letting him go into the water again.

"The sea area where we are trawling is too deep now. I don't even know how deep it is, a few hundred meters deep. I can only go down to ten or twenty meters at most."

"Then whenever you see any deserted island or small island, go into the water nearby and take a look. The sea around the island should not be very deep."

"Look, it's not an offshore sea. The open sea is endless, and it's not that easy to find an island in the middle of the sea."

The three of them were talking while walking. When they reached the tractor, Aguangcai said again: "Let's go to the market now? Pick up the things you left in the shop, and then go to the village."

"Well, let's go, finish things early, and get home before dark."

When they went to the store to unload the goods in the morning, they took the opportunity to leave the gift they wanted to give to the village head of Xinghua Zhongcun in the store first, so that they would not have to carry the items around with them, which would be easily stolen on the tractor.

.

It was still noon, the hottest time of the day when the sun was at its strongest, and before the village committee went to work. Ye Yaodong and the others carried their things straight to the village chief's house and called him up from the recliner.

When people saw that the things he was holding were all in traditional Chinese and English, their faces burst into laughter, but they were still polite.

"Why are you so polite with your things..."

"It should, it should. Last time it was because my sister gave birth. I came in a hurry and didn't prepare anything. I was rude. I came here today to make up for it."

Ye Yaodong couldn't help but push the thing into his arms. After some polite exchanges, the village chief accepted it with a smile on his face.

Don’t be surprised if you give gifts to many people. After you have the greeting gift, you can say anything easily.

"Village Chief, what do you say about the land survey? Have you discussed it? Do you have any plans?"

"Our village even held a special meeting to talk about this matter. In daily life, there are no big things in our village. They are all trivial. It is a big deal for you to buy such a large area of ​​land. Everyone has said everything.

But the most important thing is that I am not worried about what you are using the land for? With such a large area, the villagers are most concerned about this matter, because they are afraid of bringing bad things to the village. After all, you are foreigners and do not belong to us."

"Don't worry, I have such a large area. In addition to using it to build a house and a yard for the elderly at home to live in, I will also build a warehouse. The remaining open space may be used to build a workshop or something. I am not sure yet.

.”

He further promised, "But if I want to do something, I will definitely say hello to our village committee first, and I will definitely not do anything detrimental to the villagers. My old man has also lived in the village for a year, and he likes us very much."

People in this village say that everyone is very humane, so I just thought of buying a piece of land, building a house, and then settling directly in our village."

"Think about it, those who have settled in our village are also part of our village, and will become villagers of this village from now on. How can they do anything detrimental to the people in the village?"

The village chief nodded after hearing this, "You want to settle down. It's easy to settle down. Then I have to tell everyone. Everyone is willing to sell the land to you. Anyway, the wasteland is empty and can't grow anything. Your family

The old man has lived in the village for a year and everyone is familiar with it, but the area is too big, so they have to ask clearly what it is used for."

Ye Yaodong looked happy, as long as he was willing to sell it, he was doing it to make money, and he was definitely not doing anything illegal.

Sure enough, land is the best to buy and sell now, especially in rural areas.

"Don't worry, village chief. After we buy the land and build the houses, we will become the villagers of this village. Of course, we will put the interests of the villagers first."

"Then I'll talk to the others later, and you can come back in a few days to hear the message."

The expression on Ye Yaodong's face made me a little embarrassed, "I may not be free in a few days, and I may have to go out of town for a few months."

"Why are you going? Aren't you a fisherman?"

"Yes, I just want to go fishing for two months. There is a flood season in other places, and I am rushing to make money."

"Then your boat is not small enough, can you still go to other places to catch up with the flood season?"

"Yes, I own more than a dozen boats, and my brother-in-law's family also has quite a few. We all have to go together when the time comes. I thought that my sister had just given birth and there was no one to take care of her. I was worried, so I moved back to my hometown two days ago.

"

The village chief's eyes bulged out, "More than a dozen boats?"

"Yes, so don't worry, we are just fishermen who do our duty. We make money entirely from fishing. Whatever we do will not harm the village."

Small wooden boats are also boats, and there is nothing wrong with a dozen of them.

Ye Yaodong thought for a while and then took out the reward he received in the morning to show him, "We will only do things that are beneficial to individuals and the collective. This is the reward given to me by the superiors today. If I were from this village, I would also give it to our village."

It’s a disgrace.”

"Also, I am familiar with the leader above. I talked to him about the land purchase in the morning. He said that my idea is very good. Anyway, there are shops in the city. I want to buy a piece of land and build a house nearby.

It’s also convenient for fishing boats to go back and forth to the shore to sell goods.”

"What kind of leader? There are also honorary certificates and pens..."

The village chief touched it here and there in surprise. Ye Yaodong waited for him to finish it before putting it away.

"Haha, leaders of this city. Then village chief, help me talk to other village cadres. I will see if I have time to come over in two days. If not, I will definitely come back during the National Day in October.

, how about we come over and have a detailed chat then?"

"Okay, let me tell you more. This is not a big problem. It's just that your area is so big. It will definitely cost a lot to buy the land."

"I know this, let's follow the process, the procedures are complete, and it will be as it should be."

"Okay, then wait for two days or around the National Day. I will also discuss it with other people in the past two days. If you are not a foreigner and the area is too large, I can finalize this directly."

"It's okay, I'll trouble you. I'll see if I have time to come back in two days..."

"OK."

Those who eat people are soft-mouthed and those who take people are short-handed. Nowadays, people are relatively simple. Having said that, there is generally no problem.

The purpose of buying the land has been half achieved. I just have to wait two days to see if I have time to come back again. Then the area will be measured, the contract signed and the money paid, and it will be tied up.

He doesn't really want to wait until he has finished fishing for jellyfish and come back during the National Day. The time interval is too long, and it is easy to have long nights and dreams. You have to strike while the iron is hot. The longer the time goes, the more things will happen. Who knows if he will sit on the ground again by then?

Is there anything weird about raising the price?

When things are settled and there are no worries, he can devote himself to other things better.

Today is only the 2nd. Even if you receive the information and want to leave, you have to prepare a two-day notice before setting off. It is generally no problem and it will be in time.

After coming out of the village chief's house, he went to the shop again. In the middle of the afternoon, the market was already deserted and not many people were there. It specializes in night markets and morning markets. Basically, there are fewer people after noon, and the market also

It's closed, so only the facade outside their market is still open.

Their opening hours are basically from early morning to afternoon. After all, they sell dry food, not fresh food, and their audience is not the same group of people, so they still have to stay open during the day.

Ye Yaodong settled the city's accounts during this period, and then took out the wages of Lin's father and Lin's mother and handed them to them. He gave them an increase of 20 yuan each. The salary was 120, so for two people, it was 240.

That’s 3,000 yuan a year!

This salary is already considered a ceiling for workers. Generally, you have to work in a special type of work to earn this much, or even more.

He also sincerely thanked his father-in-law and mother-in-law for helping him share the burden, otherwise his production chain would have been stuck in this area.

Fortunately, the two of them are quite young, only in their 50s, and can still work hard.

Father Ye didn't say anything when he saw it, but Ye Yaodong also said to his father after he left the house: "When Ah Qing paid you your wages two days ago, I didn't tell her in advance. Anyway, I'll pay you next time."

"It doesn't matter. Don't tell your mother. You should pay me the salary this month as you did last month. If you pay more, you can secretly give it to me."

The corner of his mouth twitched, "Why are you hiding so much private money? As a middle-aged man, besides drinking and smoking, what other expenses can you have?"

"If you have money in your hand and don't panic, how can you give your mother everything? I must have some self-defense myself. It's not easy to get money from her. How can I look at her face? I have money in my hand.

, I don’t have to ask her for money, and I don’t have to listen to her nagging.”

"Then you should give 200 to my mother?"

"Yes, speaking of it, I gave her a lot of money, and all I got was fractions."

Ye Yaodong was speechless, "Do you still want to take the big head and let her take the small change?"

"That's what I think, but I can't do it. She is responsible for all the expenses and favors at home. There are many relatives in the family, and they do a lot of things, both red and white. There are also a lot of favors.

She has to spend money, but fortunately she can save money, so I just need to take less."

"Then my mother still has to thank you for your consideration and just take less?"

Father Ye couldn't help but laugh, "How can you think so? She needs to be beaten."

"I thought you were still dreaming and haven't woken up yet. I really thought so."
