While the whole family was busy working, suddenly a man in his 30s came over on a bicycle, with Ah Cai sitting behind him.
The two bicycles were parked at the door. Just as they were about to come in, they were frightened by the barking dogs and puppies.
"Hey~ You've given birth to a whole litter of cubs? They're so big and pretty ferocious."
When Ye Yaodong saw the person coming, he quickly patted the salt on his hands and hurriedly greeted him.
"You just gave birth to a cub, do you want to catch one and raise it? The yard is full of things and it's hard to move around. Let's go to the house and talk."
Everyone looked at the visitor curiously. Ye Yaodong did not explain to the others, but showed them how to marinate before taking them inside to sit down.
Father Ye also followed him in, intending to stop and say hello. After all, a guest was here.
Ah Cai looked at the pots of jellyfish brains cooked on the table, sat down and said first, "These jellyfish brains of yours look pretty good, and the pickled jellyfish brains outside also look pretty impressive."
"When I leave later, I will take some jellyfish brains back to make soup. This one is very fresh."
Jellyfish brains are not poisonous. Just pick them and put them in boiling water for a while. The liquid stings will immediately solidify into a cauliflower-like solid. They are rich in nutrients and delicious and can be eaten directly.
"Okay, then I'm welcome. This friend is Chen Jianian, who I told you before. He just came over and said that you guys called before and he planned to come and take a look."
"I know, we talked on the phone earlier." Ye Yaodong looked at Chen Jianian again, "If Brother Nian is okay, we will set off the day after tomorrow. I have to wait for the jellyfish blood to dry before I can put it away. Let's set sail.
Flexible hours.”
Chen Jianian had been in deep thought since he came in. Now he said, "I want to ask, are you going to deliver the goods and then come back?"
Ye Yaodong's heart moved, "Brother Nian, do you have any ideas?"
"I learned from my friends that the flood season for jellyfish has been around since July. I called yesterday and asked about it. They said it was hot and the flood season would last until September and October. It's only mid-August now."
"You want to say that I can stay over there and just catch jellyfish?"
Chen Jianian immediately looked at him with a smile, "Yes, to tell you the truth, if you hadn't said you were going to sail up there, I might not have been prepared to go there. After all, it's too far away, and I don't lack the wages."
"So you want to be an intermediary and earn money as an intermediary, but you are going alone, and you are afraid that if you are not a local, you will not be able to collect the goods, so you happened to run into me."
Ye Yaodong understood after hearing what he said. People looked down upon his wages for one trip. No wonder when he called him, the other party only said he wanted to come over and talk in detail.
He was also thinking about it in his mind. When he encountered this jellyfish, he immediately thought of its origin in Zhejiang and Fujian. It was a busy season right now, and those jellyfish should have been swept here by the typhoon waves. He
I didn’t even think about going to the place of production.
But he was in a hurry, because there were so many jellyfish on the sea, and he had just spent a lot of money, and he was eager to make money. The pier didn't want jellyfish, so he just wanted to make this money.
As a result, the merchants didn't come to collect it from them, and they had to deliver it themselves, which would have to be a trip anyway, and he felt happy.
Originally, he thought that if no one wanted it, he would go there by himself. After all, there were a lot of them and it was worth it.
Unexpectedly, Chen Jianian also had the idea of ​​becoming an intermediary in the past.
But it doesn’t matter, it’s obviously a win-win!
When Chen Jianian saw that he just said a few words casually, Ye Yaodong understood what he meant and immediately looked at him with admiration.
"Brother, you are smart. No wonder you dare to accept so much when no one here wants it."
"Hey, isn't this a lack of money? If there is no shortage of money, why would I do anything else just to make more money?"
"So you are short of connections and I am short of goods. Let's go there together. You can fish with peace of mind and I will help you get the goods to the factory. I am not afraid that no one will want them."
"Then how much agency fee do you charge?"
"Five points, I heard that's what they charge over there."
It's not too much, but it's acceptable. If his goods are collected for him, he can become familiar with them there, and maybe he can collect more. Anyway, he has a way.
Father Ye couldn't help but said: "Are your friends there reliable? Don't let us go in vain. After all, the journey is quite long..."
"Don't worry, uncle, that's my brother. I'm going with you too. I'm also going there to earn more money. Otherwise, why would I come all the way here? I'll screw you, right?"
It’s no good for me either.”
"And if it's not reliable, you can also look for it locally. It's easy to get a low price if you look for it yourself, but we are our own."
Father Ye frowned and said nothing. He still felt that it was too far, but he had no choice but to avoid these jellyfish.
Even after he got there, he would probably have to fish there, and he didn't know if it was feasible. If he could make money, he wouldn't mind.
"OK!"
Ye Yaodong simply agreed. Anyway, this Chen Jianian had the connections, so he would collect the goods directly from him, letting him pay the intermediary fee and save him from looking for buyers everywhere.
If there were a lot of jellyfish there, he might as well stay and catch them.
After confirming, they chatted for a while and agreed to set off at 5 a.m. the day after tomorrow. Ye Yaodong sent them off and gave Ah Cai a large bowl of jellyfish brains.
Chen Jianian didn't ask for it. It was inconvenient for him to carry while riding a bicycle. He didn't bring a lunch box and had nothing to pack.
After Ye Yaodong sent them away, Lin Xiuqing couldn't help but frowned and asked impatiently: "A Dong, are you sure you'll stay there after you go?"
When they were talking about things earlier, she was sitting in front of the stove boiling jellyfish blood, and she had wanted to ask for a long time.
"It depends on the situation. This requires a lot of money. Don't you still earn money if you have money? I don't know what it is like. Let's go and have a look first. Remember to collect a few sets of clothes for me first."
Ye Yaodong turned to his father and told him that he planned to invite two more people to follow them.
"If it is to be left there, it will take people to fish it out and divide it. It is safe to ask two people from our own village to board the boat together."
Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua looked confused.
"What are you talking about about staying and what about dividing?"
Ye Yaodong looked at his brothers. He also wanted to tell them if they wanted to go with him? His brothers also had a companion.
"The man who just came here is a friend of Ah Cai. He said that the flood season for jellyfish is now in Zhejiang and Fujian, and it should last until September and October. He asked me to send the goods there and sell them, and then I can keep them there.
After a month or two of fishing, he will act as an intermediary, and he will not be afraid that no one will want the goods. Do you want to give it a try together?"
The two brothers looked at each other. After the goods were delivered, would they stay there to fish?
"Isn't this too far? We are unfamiliar with the place there, but we can fish quite safely in the waters here..." Ye Yaopeng instinctively refused.
Ye Yaohua asked: "Is that person trustworthy?"
"Since Ah Cai's friends have all gone with us, they won't bluff us. If it's unreliable, we won't lose much. Moreover, the flood season is real over there. We can still fish after it has passed. We are not afraid of jellyfish there.
No one wants it."
"It's too far. It would take several hours to sail there."
"If there is no wind or waves, it will take about seven or eight hours. It's not too far. Anyway, there is a compass. Dad is a veteran and is not afraid. We have been sailing on the sea all day long."
Father Ye is already tied to him anyway, so he has to go along if he doesn’t want to.
"This is different. This is a long journey. No, no, no, if the wind and waves are too big..."
"We can choose to set off when the weather is good and there are no wind and waves. It only takes seven or eight hours. We didn't say it would take several days. Just drive along the coast."
Ye Yaopeng still shook his head, "We are arresting at home..."
Before he finished speaking, Ye Yaohua interrupted him, "Dongzi, are you sure you can make money there? Is there really anyone collecting jellyfish over there?"
"I don't dare to vouch for you whether I can make money, but I'm sure someone will accept it. Otherwise, why would I bother to collect so much and work there for a long time? That Chen Jianian just now told me for sure that it's the flood season over there right now.
, he wants to be an intermediary, this is still believable."
It's the flood season again, and there must be people harvesting it. Ye Yaohua thought of his luck, gritted his teeth and said to Ye Yaopeng: "Brother, let's go and have a look with Dongzi!"
Ye Yaopeng looked at him in disbelief, "Are you kidding? It's so far away... You can also make money trawling the net at home."
"But it's the flood season over there, and the flood season is different. As long as we can catch up, we will definitely make a lot of money. Since jellyfish are selling well over there, let's go there and give it a try. Dad is also going, he is an old helmsman, and we will follow him.
It will definitely not be lost.”
Everyone else also looked at Ye Yaohua in surprise. No one expected that he would suddenly want to follow so decisively. It felt a bit unlike his honest and honest character.
"What's wrong with you? Dongzi just heard about it. Wouldn't it be safer for us to trawl the net at home?"
"Shall we give it a try? What if there are really a lot of jellyfish over there and the sales are very good."
Ye Yaohua was now a little determined to follow Ye Yaodong to see if he could benefit from it.
He really believed that Dongzi Shipping had good transportation and strong luck, so he couldn't go wrong. He had missed it several times before, and this time he wanted to give it a try.
Father Ye also frowned and looked at Ye Yaohua, "It's hard to say how it is outside. You are safer at home. Dongzi has nothing to do. He has already received so many goods, and he has to send them over to sell them."
Ye Yaodong looked at the eldest and second brothers who had differences. Although he didn't know why his second brother suddenly had the spirit of adventure and fighting, he quite supported them in going together.
He thought about it and found a compromise.
"Why don't you, second brother, have to wait? I'll go over there tomorrow to check the situation. If there are a lot of jellyfish and you don't have to worry about selling them, I'll call you back and then you go back?"
Ye Yaohua hesitated for a moment and glanced at Ye Yaopeng, "It's a bit far away. I'm afraid it won't work if my eldest brother and I sail the boat..."
"This is easy to handle. When the time comes, I'll ask Aguang to follow his father. His father is an old helmsman on a big ship."
