Everyone was really tired. After staying at sea for 12 days, we were soaked in the water again when we came back. We worked together to seine the net. The fishing net was hundreds of meters long and carried a sinker. It was not that easy to pull it up manually.

After docking, they moved the goods again. The whole ship contained more than 100,000 kilograms of goods, and just a few of them carried it back and forth. They were already exhausted.

I could still joke with God on the way. When I got home, I felt completely relaxed and wanted to lie down directly.

After washing up, some people didn't even bother to eat and went to sleep directly, while some could still swallow a few mouthfuls before going to sleep.

Ye Yaodong felt that it was okay. In addition to mental fatigue, the physical fatigue was not unacceptable.

The main reason is that he is the boss, so he does less work than others and is more relaxed.

When he washed up and went out after eating, his father and a dozen boatmen were still killing fish and bugs.

Some use kitchen knives, some use scissors, and some use machetes customized from the blacksmith shop. Anyway, as long as they can be used, it will be fine.

Father Ye saw him coming out and asked: "This insect looks bulging. When you cut it open and take out the belly, there is only a layer of skin left. How do you eat this?"

"Wash it, boil it and dry it in the sun, then put it away and store it for a longer time. Tomorrow I'll go to the landlady's place to cut a handful of leeks and fry them."

"That's almost like a sandworm."

"Well, it's almost the same. It's just a little fatter and bigger than a sandworm. It probably has to cut everything."

"perhaps?"

"Yes, it's probably true. I've never eaten it. Isn't that just a rough idea?"

"I thought you had eaten it."

“Where have I eaten?”

"Shit, you're lucky. No one wants it, but you want it. How much did these cost?"

Ye Yaodong smiled happily, "What do you think?"

"How can it be sold for hundreds of yuan for 6 cents?"

"We caught more than 2,300 kilograms and sold them for 1,416 yuan."

"Ah! So many?" Father Ye raised his head and looked at him in surprise. Isn't this just picking up something cheap? So many people saw it, but no one picked it up. It was disgusting.

Ye Yaodong is not afraid of the boatman knowing, anyway, when selling goods, everyone standing nearby can hear it.

"Luckily, they were all fishing for the black mullet in the fishing net at that time. That one weighed tens of thousands of kilograms. The fishing net was heavy and they were too busy to spare. Plus this large number, all

It is indeed disgusting to rush to the beach, and it is normal to refuse to help and resist."

"How much did those fish cost? Four boats?"

"A total of 67,320 kilograms, sold in batches for 7 cents a kilogram, sold for more than 4,000, and one person can get a thousand pieces. It will be midnight by the time they come back, and we will settle the accounts tomorrow."

"That's not a lot. If you're lucky, you'll earn two shares."

Ye Yaodong laughed, "I've earned it, I just hope I can save enough money to pay it back to A Guang this month."

"You go to bed first, these little things will be taken care of soon."

He saw that there were not many Haitian sweet potatoes in the basket. Each of them weighed two or three kilograms, and they were killed very quickly. The basket only weighed about sixty kilograms.

The workers nearby also killed the fish very quickly. There were more people and more strength, and most of the baskets they picked up were processed.

He then went back to his house to sort out the money he had sold in the evening and do some calculations.

After he finished doing this, his father happened to be busy and returned to the house.

The father and son talked about their harvest in the past half month, and Ye's father also gave him the money from selling goods during this period to hide.

Ye Yaodong estimated that after the general accounts of several ships were settled at the end of the month, he would be able to pay off Aguang's money and still have ten to twenty thousand yuan left in his hand.

As of today, he already has more than 20,000 yuan on hand. This does not include the 8,000 yuan deposit he paid at the shipyard. The money left this month is probably enough for renovation.

Thinking of that boat, he couldn't help but think about his father's words to build a few more and match them directly.

In fact, it’s not that we can’t afford it, but the cost is too high, the construction period is long, and the current domestic technology is not very advanced, so we have to wait.

Moreover, it is best for him to solve the problem of after-sales channels for fresh harvesting ships. He cannot just rely on setting up stalls, but must have a cooperative company and factory to receive the goods. This is called a one-stop service.

He shook his head and closed his eyes to go to sleep. This was not something he could think about right now. He should save more money first.

Anyway, it’s only 1986, it’s only been 4 years since he was reborn, and he’s still 4 years away from entering the 1990s.

Early the next morning, listening to the noise from the residents around him, he put the quilt over his head and continued to sleep.

This kind of old residential house has poor soundproofing, and there are many people living there. There are all kinds of voices and noises every morning.

If the washbasin next door falls to the floor, it will wake up a large number of people early in the morning and can be heard by people several rooms away.

Ye Yaodong didn't expect that Jin Laixi would come to see him the next day. He was still sleeping with the quilt covered, but his father woke him up and someone was looking for him.

His first reaction was that he was a common man, but after thinking about it, he went out and would definitely not be able to come back without a month.

"Who's looking for me?"

"They said they were from Wenzhou who bought fish yesterday."

"Happy boss?"

He sat up and quickly put on his clothes. He was a little confused, was he so efficient? He just reported his address yesterday and found him today.

"I don't know him. If you go out and take a look, he'll bring you a bag full of oranges."

"Okay, got it."

After Ye Yaodong put on his clothes and trousers, he scratched his long hair before going out to greet people.

Two people came to the other party, the same two people who bought fish yesterday.

He was worried that he had just woken up, hadn't brushed his teeth, had bad breath, and didn't dare to walk too close.

"Boss Xi Da, how about morning, Boss Fang?"

"It's not early, it's almost noon. It's quite hard to find this location. Fortunately, when I asked people at the intersection, I asked about your workers."

"You sit down and rest for a while. I'm going to wash up first. Who will cook for lunch today? Cook more."

"No, no, I'll come over and have a chat."

Ye Yaodong squeezed out toothpaste and chatted with him, "Have a few words without delaying your meal."

"Haha, we discussed it with some friends we met yesterday and think your idea is a good one. As long as you are from Vancouver, it is better to stick together as a group than to deal with strangers outside. Of course, the locals are more friendly. And there are

We can better discuss what kind of resources there are. There is always a bit of local feeling in a place."

It was not convenient for him to speak, so he nodded.

"So, we plan to follow your suggestion and organize an association called Wenzhou City Association. We will choose the place where we will stay. When the time comes, we will put up a banner or make a plaque to make it appear more formal."

Indeed, this is more formal. Ye Yaodong listened and nodded.

"I'm here to ask for your consent, because I briefly learned yesterday that you are the vice president of the Vancouver Fisheries Association, so we would like to invite you to join. You are also half a Vancouverite."

Ye Yaodong nodded again, yes.

"Then I want to use your name as the vice president of the Fisheries Association to promote it so that more people in Vancouver know about our chamber of commerce and join us."

He turned to look at Jin Laixi in surprise, his mouth was still full of bubbles and his words were slurred.

Jin Laixi smiled and said: "After all, your name is officially authorized and has more credibility. Our chamber of commerce is just a private organization, and we need to create some lively signs to attract people to join."

"This is what we discussed. We also thought that the suggestion itself was made by you. You should also be happy to see our chamber of commerce become more impressive."

"When there are more people in the chamber of commerce, we can occasionally communicate and help each other, whether it is receiving and selling goods, then we can give priority to our own people. Don't you have dozens of ships?"

Ye Yaodong hurriedly purred a few times, cleaned his mouth and said, "How are you going to promote it?"

He just wanted to play a small role, get to know a few ship bosses or businessmen, and let him collect and sell goods, but he didn't want to be taken over by others.

“There is no need to publicize much. When someone asks about the Chamber of Commerce, mention your name. Just say that the vice-president of our local Fisheries Association in Vancouver is sitting here and that you are also in the Chamber of Commerce. This will make people more aware.

There is credibility.”

"Of course, this must be introduced by an acquaintance. You need to know someone. You can't just accept anyone who comes. If you are not a serious person, then everyone may be the first to be unlucky."

This sounds quite reliable.

Seeing that he was hesitant, Jin Laixi added: "The people we invite to join the Chamber of Commerce must be quite powerful, and we won't use your name for anything."

Ye Yaodong thought to himself, in fact, it doesn't matter whether he agrees or not, as long as he is also a member of the Chamber of Commerce, then people will definitely say that the vice president of the Fisheries Association is also in the Chamber of Commerce.

Unless he is not from this chamber of commerce, then of course nothing can be said against him.

"Okay, then I don't understand what you're going to do to punish you. You just have to figure it out."

"Okay, that's it. Are you free in the afternoon? In the afternoon, let's get to know each other. There are also several friends, some speak Wenshi dialect and some speak Hokkien. Let's get to know each other."

"Just the address you gave me yesterday? Will you be there in the afternoon?"

"If you have no problem, we will go talk to other people and treat it as an initial small meeting."

"OK."

Ye Yaodong agreed for the time being. It was just a grassroots team anyway, so just treat it as acquaintance with a few friends and a few bosses.

With many friends and many paths, no one knows what will happen to them.
