Ye Yaodong felt that nothing would happen to him. Almost everyone who needed to cooperate had cooperated, and all the ideas had been given. The rest was left to them to fend for themselves.
After waking up from a nap, he planned to tell his father that they would go to sea as usual at night and no longer have to worry about the salvage and bronze items. They had been delayed at home for three days. The cage had also been left in the sea for three days, so he had to collect it.
Who knew that Secretary Chen would come to visit again.
As soon as he saw him coming, Ye Yaodong had a bad premonition again. Whenever he came to the door recently, he felt like nothing good would happen.
"You didn't help with the work? Aren't you building a house again?"
“There are workers, but I don’t want to work!”
A worker's salary is only 1.5 yuan a day. Why should he have to work alone after paying for it? Crossing his legs, eating watermelon, and blowing the sea breeze. Are you uncomfortable? Why are you sweating like rain and exerting all your energy?
How much money can you save?
It’s not like I can’t make money like before, I can’t make money, I can only save a little bit here and work a little bit there to subsidize.
"I see that you lived a pretty comfortable life as a child."
"It's not as comfortable as you. You don't need to be exposed to the wind and sun. You can just sit in the village committee with your legs crossed. Why does such a big sun come here again?" After he finished speaking, he shouted into the house, "Ah Qing,
Cut a piece of watermelon and give it to Secretary Chen to eat."
"There are so many things going on lately, where can I feel comfortable? My hair is about to fall out."
Secretary Chen walked a long way under the sun and was sweating profusely. He took a bite of watermelon and felt instantly relieved.
In a few clicks, he gnawed down a piece of watermelon until only the white skin was left, and then threw it at the door, where a group of chickens rushed to peck at it.
"What do you say this afternoon? Are there any discussions about asking the museum to donate money to build a temple?"
"Those people from the museum said that this idea is feasible. If the big bronze tripod is handed over, there will definitely be a reward. It's not them who has the final say on how much the reward will be. You have to go back and apply for it."
"Oh, there's no rush. Anyway, their salvage team hasn't come here yet. When they finish fishing in the sea and the rewards are distributed, just take them with you."
"Well, that's why I just sent him away. I still have something to discuss with you."
"Don't!" Ye Yaodong shouted stop in time, he just said, coming to him now will definitely not do anything good.
"Don't discuss it with me. There are so many people in our village committee. If there is any problem that cannot be solved, why should you discuss it with me? I am just an ordinary little fisherman. I go out at night and come back after sunset. It is harder than farmers working in the fields.
It’s too much, so don’t embarrass me. And I’m going to sea tonight, so don’t look for me!”
As he spoke, he moved the stool under his butt to the side twice, a little further away from Secretary Chen.
Secretary Chen's eyes widened when he saw his huge reaction and still stayed far away from him. He also moved the stool under his butt two steps closer to him.
"Why such a big reaction? I have a business with you. You promised the leaders two days ago that you would cooperate with the work."
"Isn't this already done? I have accompanied them to the sea to explore the road, and I have marked it for them today. All they need to do is sail the boat when they arrive, so why do they need me? My biggest use is to sail the boat and lead the way. Now
I have retired with success."
He continued to move the stool under his butt to the side. The old guy didn't want any good things to happen to him.
"But their salvage team hasn't arrived yet! Someone has to guard that area at sea, otherwise, what if someone with evil intentions comes to steal it?"
"Damn! I knew something was wrong. You old guy, why don't you find someone else?"
"Others can't be trusted! What's more, you said you must cooperate with the leadership!"
"I won't go! I haven't been out to sea for a day, and I've lost dozens of dollars. I heard that the goods are all good recently, and the weather is good. There might be a typhoon later. Don't delay my fortune!"
"Don't they all give you a subsidy?"
"Don't mention the subsidy. How much subsidy can he give me? One or two yuan a day? I don't like him at all. I agreed to cooperate with the work a few days ago because I have a high consciousness. Otherwise, I would still be thinking about his three melons.
Two dates? I just go to the sea and drag a net. Isn’t it more than what he gave me?”
Secretary Chen patiently continued to persuade him with earnest words, "Then you should continue to maintain your high consciousness. Three melons and two dates are also three melons and two dates, and it is also what you said yourself to work together."
"I'm talking about cooperating in the short term. I've been cooperating for three days, so it should be fine, right?"
"It's not enough yet. You need to cooperate for a few more days. What's more, those soldiers live in your hometown and you are familiar with them. Their assigned task is to follow you to the sea to guard the area until the salvage team comes."
"You can find another boat to take them."
"Stop talking nonsense, it's up to you. You were the one who discovered that area first, and the leader assigned you no reason to refuse, so stop struggling."
Ye Yaodongsheng sat on the chair helplessly, "I will be less troublesome next time. If I salvage any antiques or other artifacts again, I will just throw them all into the sea. This will save me the trouble of doing things for myself and incurring losses for my grandma.
Home!"
"Don't say that. There are still two people missing from the village committee and the Women's Federation. I think your wife and your mother are quite suitable. I heard that your wife can read and write, so they are just right."
He looked over in surprise, is there such a good thing?
"It's also because you have high awareness, cooperated with the work during this period, made excellent suggestions, and contributed to the village. The village committee is also short of people, so I won the benefits for you."
"You think you're saying you're giving a sweet date with a stick? My wife just gave birth to a baby and she still needs to breastfeed the baby."
"It's okay. The daily affairs of the Women's Federation are simple. They just carry out some publicity activities, safeguard women's rights, and deal with the affairs of some women and children in the village. I think your wife is quite suitable. Half the village is related, so I don't worry about anyone.
.”
"Your wife, just go to the village committee whenever you are free every day. When the child stops breastfeeding, you can go to the village committee to help organize the documents."
Eating free wages, right? That's okay, he has become a village cadre after all, so he was not recruited in vain.
Just go to that place on the sea and wander for a few days, and you can have two village cadres in your family. This business is also cost-effective, and you get a bargain.
Feeling that this wave of sweet dates was okay, Ye Yaodong moved his stool back and sat next to Secretary Chen, "You have a little more conscience in handling this matter this time, and you didn't let me feel cold."
"Stop calling me old guy?"
"Oh, weren't you angry just now? There is a word called Lao Dang Yizhuang, and you are."
"That's still calling me old!"
Ye Yaodong smiled and hugged his shoulder, "Then I will call you eldest brother from now on? Brother Chen? Isn't this called young?"
Secretary Chen smiled and slapped his hand away, "Don't be too big or small. Okay, that's settled. Now you can go to the sea and see if there are any ships staying there. If there are any, just go directly
Drive them away, if they really catch something, they are not allowed to take it away."
"Those soldiers have followed the leaders to the county. They may have to come back in the evening and go to sea with you tomorrow. You and your father will go for a walk now."
"You want me to go to work now?" He looked up at the already setting sun, "Tomorrow? The sun is almost setting."
"Go out for a walk. I warned the villagers at noon. I don't know if there are any bold ones this afternoon. You go and have a look first."
"Okay, I have a short mouth when eating people and a soft hand when taking people. I will have to work hard in this life, alas."
"Don't get cheap and be nice, go quickly."
"Why are you so anxious? I have to tell my mother and my wife that they have become village officials. My father and I have even less status in this family."
"Hurry up, I'm leaving first." Secretary Chen put his hands behind his back and looked at the sun shining in the sky, and muttered: "It's such a big sun and it hasn't even set yet. It's so hot... I still have to run around.
…”
Mother Ye was washing diapers at the back door. The sun was setting in the west. The black grid at the front door could not block the scorching sun. Only the back door was not exposed to the sun and was cool at this time.
Even his elder sister-in-law and second sister-in-law moved the fishing nets to the back door to weave in the afternoon.
Ye Yaodong looked into the room and saw that his wife seemed to be putting the child to sleep, so he had to go to the back door to tell his mother first to make her happy.
A storyteller was playing on the radio behind him, and the speaker was turned up loud. He first turned down the old lady's radio.
When everyone was confused, he said to his mother: "Mom, I have some good news for you."
"What good news? Don't you want to buy anything else?"
"I think too much. I haven't been out to sea for a few days. My money is almost empty. What else can I buy? I have to hesitate to buy a piece of pork belly."
Mother Ye glared at him, "Who is to blame for all the troubles caused by yourself?"
"The good news, do you want to hear it?"
"Do you like to talk or not? If you don't talk, you will be defeated."
He said how could he, a grown man, be so sharp-tongued? He must be like his mother, who is truly worthy of his reputation.
"I just asked Secretary Chen for a job with the Women's Federation, and now you are also a village cadre!"
"What?" Mother Ye was immediately stunned, "Village cadre? Real or fake? Don't fool me? When did you become so shameless?"
"Hehe, this is not my contribution to the village during this time."
"I don't believe it! How can you have such a big face?"
Ye Yaodong: "..."
"Well, actually Secretary Chen came over to assign tasks to me and asked me to cooperate with the work, so it was a sweetener."
Mother Ye was instantly pleasantly surprised, "Really? I can't read a word, but I can still go to the Women's Federation and eat in the government? Oh, my God, is it true?"
Sister-in-law Ye and Second Sister-in-law Ye were also surprised, "Is it true or not?"
Mother Ye pinched her thigh in disbelief, "Hey, are you serious?"
It was so powerful that Ye Yaodong gritted his teeth and felt pain for his mother.
"If I tell lies, will you hit me with a hammer?"
"Yes!" Mother Ye glared at him with a hammer in her hand. If he dared to tell lies and tease her, he would be left without food.
Do you dare to play tricks on me?
