Chapter 690 Octopus in a Crock Pot
Taking advantage of the beautiful wind and sunny weather, and the calm sea, they went to sea for two more days before taking a break, because Ye Xiaoxi was one year old.
Ye Yaodong and the others simply collected all the sticky nets that were about to be scrapped. The number of toad fish has dropped sharply in the past two days, only three to four hundred kilograms per day, but they had to waste a day to collect them. They couldn't take care of the trawling, so they could still earn
Just enough money for gas.
Therefore, the father and son discussed it and decided that they were going to take a two-day break anyway, so they took the opportunity to take it back and abandon it, and in a few days they would specifically trawl or launch long lines.
Although abandoned fishing nets are useless and take up space when taken back, they are not so immoral as to throw them directly into the sea.
The lethality of abandoned fishing nets in the sea is not particularly great for some marine creatures, and the whale shark they encountered before was a victim.
Ocean pollution can also harm their interests.
When the fishing net was taken back today, there were also two small green dragons stuck on it. He kept them both and planned to add some extra food the next day. He also kept some good seafood and put them at Ah Cai's place to keep them fresh. He asked him to buy some more.
As for the city, he asked Uncle Zhou to transport all the dried fish left at home. It happened that the army called yesterday and asked for 2,000 kilograms, so he called his father-in-law and asked him to send it to the army with Uncle Zhou.
, after sending them off, let Uncle Zhou pick up the two old people.
After several deliveries, plus not many goods received recently, his family has now completely delivered all the goods to the city, and there is nothing left.
The stores in the city have about 5,000 or 6,000 yuan in stock, which can last for a while. The rest will be collected gradually. The main thing is to look at the goods posted by Azheng.
Because there were not many fishing nets for the father and son, it was difficult to retrieve them early. When they docked, the sun had not yet set, and it was only after 3 o'clock.
When Father Ye sent the fishing net back first, Father Lin and Mother Lin were already at home. They were all smiling. After a long chat, they helped unload the fishing nets and piled them in the corner.
Then he pushed it to the dock and continued to transport the toad fish back.
Mother Lin also volunteered to help kill the fish with a kitchen knife, but he couldn't stop her even if he wanted to.
Ye Yaodong really felt that his father-in-law and mother-in-law were really bad people. They were much better than his parents who scolded him at every turn, disliked him at every turn, and disliked him at every turn...
However, things are getting better, and there are less objections now...
"A Dong, come here." Lin's father waved to him and pulled him into the house, "You don't have time to go to the market during this period, and the money you earn cannot be handed over to you, and it keeps accumulating more and more.
I hide everywhere in fear every day."
"It's just a few days' rest. I'll bring them all back when I come back. Come and count them. These days, I have so much money in my hand. My heart is always there. I have to keep one eye open when I sleep, and I don't dare to close it.
I’ll give it to you quickly so that I can sleep peacefully and have a good sleep.”
Ye Yaodong wiped his hands on his body before following him into the house, "Just give it to Ah Qing..."
"How does a woman know about the store? Of course I have to leave it to you. Let me tell you in detail. I hid the money in the child's room. I just came back at noon and slept in the child's room."
"It's all the same, it's all the same, give her the same thing as you give me..."
"That won't work, I still have to give it to you. How can she understand what I told you..."
Father Lin has reached this age, and he feels like a mirror. Giving this money to his daughter is different from giving it to his son-in-law. If it is given to his daughter, it will be a little different.
As soon as he entered the children's room, he went to the cabinet in the corner and took out a large bag of cloth and handed it to Ye Yaodong. It was so heavy that Ye Yaodong had to hold it with both hands.
"It's quite a lot, and it's quite heavy. You can take it back to the house and count it. I also put a piece of paper inside to record how much I sell every day. I can't read either, so I just write down a few numbers on it. You can make do with it.
Look, otherwise I’m afraid I’ll have a bad memory after spending too many days.”
"Hey, ok, ok, thank you for your hard work, mom. All the shops in the city are supported by you."
Father Lin waved his hand and said with a smile: "Why are the family talking about this? If you can help, you should help. You take it back to the house and count it slowly. I will go out and take a look."
Ye Yaodong saw that he was dirty and wet, so he went back to the house first, and handed the money to Ah Qing to count first. He had to take a bath first.
Lin Xiuqing took the heavy bag of money, which felt soft and full of banknotes. She said with a smile: "There should be two or three thousand in here, right?"
"That's about it. Didn't you send 2,000 kilograms to the army today? It's worth 800 yuan here, plus the money from selling it over a week ago, it's more than 2,000 yuan."
"You will come out and give it to them when dozens of Zhang Dajiang are together. It will be regarded as this month's salary. It is paid in advance. When you send them home after lunch tomorrow, you can just bring it back to them."
"Okay."
Ah Qing happily threw a bag of money on the bed and started counting.
Ye Yaodong glanced at the pile of banknotes and coins that looked like a small mountain, and felt that the amount was quite a lot. Although the cost accounted for more than half of it, the profit was still considerable, so he couldn't go into details.
He brought a basin of hot water into the house, sat on a chair and took a shower while watching Lin Xiuqing's money-obsessed grinning and counting money, her mouth never closing.
"Wipe your saliva."
"ah?"
Lin Xiuqing was counting happily. When she heard what he said, she wiped her chin. It was really a little bit. When she opened her mouth to speak, a small drop came out, which instantly made her embarrassed.
"I kept drooling and counting the money, and my saliva dripped down, hahaha..."
"I thought he was a money addict."
She glanced at him angrily, "It's not like I haven't seen money before. My family has more savings than this. Stop arguing. Look, I forgot to count how much you interrupted me."
Ye Yaodong also liked to see her happy. He twisted a hot towel, grabbed the head and tail ends, put them on the back and rubbed them back and forth. He thought to himself that this was the meaning of making money. His wife would be happy, his children would be rich, and his parents would be happy.
Friends move forward together.
Just as he was rubbing his upper body, then his lower body, and then his lower body, rubbing his feet, counting money, and taking a shower, all in harmony, a sentence sounded from far outside the house.
"Mom, I'm back."
"Mom, I'm leaving."
It didn't even stop for a second.
Lin Xiuqing just stopped counting money, turned to look at the door, and muttered, "Like a gust of wind, I didn't even touch the ground, and I ran away again."
"Going to the beach to collect bottles and cans?"
"Definitely, it's been like this for the past few days. As soon as I came back, I threw my schoolbag and ran away immediately, without even staying in one place for two seconds."
Ye Yaodong tossed the towel into the basin, took the folded clothes and trousers on the table and put them on, "I'll go take a look. I haven't seen how they collected the bottles and cans. By the way, I'll take their white goods today."
Zhang Du is staying here, and we will have a meal at noon tomorrow. There is no trawl today, so there are quite few things."
"Whether you can add extra meals depends on your ability."
Two days ago, she secretly cooked Bai Zhang while they were at school, and lied to her two sons that he was dead. Since they also caught new ones, they didn't care so much.
Now, if he has to take over the belongings of the children next door right under his nose, it will only depend on his ability.
"Why are you so incompetent? How can you have any objections to honoring your third uncle?"
He said it harshly, but before going out, he grabbed a handful of coins from the bed and put them in his pocket.
It’s not that he doesn’t have confidence in himself, it’s that these children definitely don’t have that high level of consciousness!
It's easy to deal with if you have money. There's nothing that money can't buy. If one point doesn't work, give it two points. If it doesn't work, give it five points. It's better to sell it to him than to have it confiscated by their mother.
Lin Xiuqing looked at his back, chuckled, and shook her head, "You are tough! You don't want to buy it with the children."
Ye Yaodong also heard it and didn't care about her joke.
In the yard, Father Lin and Mother Lin were helping kill fish, and Father Ye was also helping. He had changed his clothes, and he must have just come here after taking a bath.
He walked around them and trotted out, chasing the group of children toward the beach.
In the time it took him to put on his clothes, all the others were reduced to small black dots, and he almost couldn't catch up. Only Yangyang, with his short legs, was at the back and kept shouting, "Wait a minute."
At this time, the tide had not yet receded to the bottom. After running for a short distance, Ye Yaodong slowed down and picked up Ye Chengyang, who had fallen on the beach halfway through the run. He held him in his arms and patted his clothes and pants.
"You are not as big as a bucket, but you are running with such a big bucket. I can't kill you."
If the bucket hadn't been used to hold seafood, so it smelled fishy, was dirty, and had some water, he would have wanted to put the bucket over his head to make sure it was completely covered.
Fortunately, it didn't hurt when he fell on the sand, and he wore thick pants in spring. After Ye Chengyang was picked up, he just patted his hands and hugged Ye Yaodong's neck again.
"Dad, why are you back? Come on, come on, they have all run away..."
"What's the rush? The tide hasn't receded yet, so we can walk slowly."
"There are crabs there, Dad, there are crabs..."
Ye Yaodong looked to the right where his finger was pointing. Don't want the stone crab.
"No, it's more important to chase your brothers."
"Oh, Dad, please walk faster, walk faster, walk faster..."
Ye Chengyang saw everyone else running away, feeling anxious and could only keep urging him.
Ye Yaodong was urged to walk quickly and catch up with those children.
At this time, because the tide was out, there were more children running on the beach, and many of them followed them to join in the fun.
The tide was also slowly receding as they trotted along, but it was still not far enough.
"Pull up your trousers and walk over? Just a little water, up to your knees at most, it'll be fine..."
"Okay, okay, mom can't see it anyway, so I don't know..."
Ye Yaodong trotted forward and knocked Ye Chenghai on the forehead, "I saw it."
"Ah, third uncle, how did you come here?"
"How would I know you were brave enough to go into the water if you didn't come?"
"It's not deep, I'm sure nothing will happen..."
"No, if there's one, there's two. Go around and pick up some good stuff for me. Come back, walk around and come back, and the water will recede."
"All right."
Adults are so annoying!
After Ye Chenghai cursed in his heart, he had no choice but to walk around honestly carrying the bucket.
The children of other families were fearless. They rolled up their trousers and went into the water. They wanted to take the opportunity to see if there were any octopuses in the bottles and jars they placed. But they were stopped by a few of them.
"Don't move. If you dare to touch my things, I'll beat you to death!"
"Yes, don't touch our things!"
"Let's just see..."
"You can't even look at it, we haven't seen it yet, no one is allowed to look at it!"
Just so domineering!
"What's so great? Tomorrow we will also make a bunch of bottles and jars to put in and catch octopus."
"Tsk, learn from us~"
"Who said that only you can let go, and so can we..."
…
A group of little kids were chattering there, but they didn't start fighting, probably because they usually play better.
Ye Yaodong watched them running back and forth on the beach, and as the tide receded, they also walked little by little towards the low tide point.
After the tide almost receded, they also ran to the bottles and cans.
"Wow, the tide has finally gone out, we can catch octopus..."
"Catch octopus~"
"Wow, we can catch octopus again~"
"Hurry up~ hurry up~"
