After arriving at the destination, Father Ye scooped up a ladle of seawater as usual and tapped the ladle. He saw 5 bright spots inside, 3 more than yesterday.
His face was full of joy, "The number is more today, and it will definitely increase day by day. We can just fish here with peace of mind in the afternoon."
"Okay, let's go to the island to see it now."
Maybe it was because the flood season had just arrived yesterday, so there were not many squids stranded on the island. There were scattered white and fat squids that looked like small steamed buns, swaying with the waves and being pushed to the beach by the waves.
At this time, it was just when the tide started to ebb, and a wave pushed all the floating objects onto the beach.
Lin Guangyuan was very excited when he saw it, "Uncle, are those white things all squid? There are so many, hurry up, let's go pick them up."
"Wait until the boat sails past and docks. Don't be in a hurry."
"How many days can this be collected?"
"Ten days and a half, maybe, not necessarily, I can't say for sure. Don't feel tired, you won't want to do it after two days."
"Definitely not. This is much easier than going to the dock to fight sandbags to make money."
"I hope you can say the same thing by the afternoon, okay, let's go down and work."
Regardless of whether you are working or not, whether you are doing light work or heavy work, if you do not get enough sleep, you will easily become unbearable.
I got up at two in the morning and didn't get home until four or five or five or six in the afternoon. It was at least seven or eight before I could eat, bathe, and lie down. I was brewing for a while, and I had to get up again after not sleeping for a few hours, and the cycle continued.
Most adults feel tired, let alone a half-grown kid like him. I hope he can persevere and occasionally suffer a little and get some exercise.
I looked very positive at the moment. As soon as the boat docked, I immediately took the tool bucket that I had prepared and started picking it up impatiently.
Seeing that there were not many of them, Father Ye took Ah Sheng and sailed a boat to trawl the net first, and asked Dongzi to stay here with his eldest nephew to watch for a while.
Ye Yaodong took a few more sacks and went down. If the quantity was less, he could dig out the shelled goods on the stone wall or catch the sea by himself on the beach.
Not long after they arrived, Azheng Xiaoxiao's boat also came over. He got off the boat and said hello to them. After taking a look, he felt that there were not many stranded goods, so he also went to trawl.
Ye Yaodong also planned to trawl the net. How could three people be needed for this small amount of goods that were stranded on the beach? However, he was afraid that Lin Guangyuan would be scared, so he stayed with him to pick it up for a while, and then left after giving some instructions.
Working at sea was quite boring. It was dark and the ship's diesel engine was noisy. He didn't want to yell and talk about anything, and he didn't have much to talk to his older cousin.
He always paid attention to the moving lights on the island, and felt relieved when he saw the normal movement back and forth on the island.
Lin Guangyuan was alone on the island, with no one to make noise with, so he could only pick up squid honestly.
After dragging a net, the sky started to get bright.
After dawn, there were fewer squids floating over, more seabirds, and the tide was rising. He sat on the stone wall to rest for a while, then looked at the shells above, and he began to dig loudly.
stand up.
It seems to be quite hard-working.
Ye Yaodong waited for the second net to be collected, the sun was high in the sky, and it was time to have breakfast, before he docked at the dock to see how his harvest was.
Lin Guangyuan pulled out a sack and showed it to him as if he was offering a treasure, and then pointed to another bag full of shells next to him, "Uncle, I picked up a sack, and I dug these as well!"
"Very good, keep working hard in the afternoon, there may be more squid tomorrow."
"Okay." Lin Guangyuan was full of energy and responded happily.
Ye Yaodong made another trip to the shore while waiting for lunch, and then he relaxed and fished for squid around the island.
And at home, it was also very busy.
After discussing with his father-in-law last night, he told Uncle Zhou, who drove the tractor, to go to the market at eight o'clock the next day to pick up the goods. It happened to be around 12 noon, and the truck full of Balang fish also arrived home.
Ye Mu and Ah Qing took the two sisters-in-law of the Lin family. The four women did not need to rely on men. They moved the unloaded goods there. After unloading, they started killing fish in the yard in full swing.
The two aunts she often invited in the past were also Ye's own sisters. She didn't say too much and stopped calling the two sisters-in-law of the Lin family. On such a hot day, the fish had to be killed while it was fresh, not to mention that she had to go to work at that time.
At most, I spend more time outside when I have free time.
Don't think that the Women's Federation is very idle. In recent years, it has begun to crack down on birth control, and it has become more and more strict. The Women's Federation often spends most of the day outside.
Ah Qing also has a lot of things to take care of inside and outside, and he also has to take care of the food and drink of his four brothers and sister-in-law, and take care of the young and old. At most, he works a little more in his free time. Most of the time, he can only be a supervisor. He can only kill a few people in one day.
Endless killing.
After killing, they still have to be washed and dried. This is all work and needs to be done by people.
Her two brothers came here early this morning, and then went to the mountain to cut bamboo. After measuring the land, they also started weeding and planting bamboo in the afternoon.
Under the scorching sun, countless kilograms of sweat evaporated.
Since the whole village was fishing for squid during the flood season, the village was relatively quiet during the day. Although some people had spread the news last night about their family buying the vacant land next to it, it was not so outrageous today.
Until the evening, people who went to sea began to come back one after another. The pier was full of people and noisy. While everyone was discussing the squid harvest, they also began to discuss the time when Ye Yaodong bought more than an acre of land by the beach.
He has been stealing the show during this time!
When Ye Yaodong came back from shore in the evening, he heard the villagers talking and felt that he had been the most prosperous in his entire life recently.
In the whole village, in the past half month, there has not been a single day without rumors about his incident.
The grocery store in the village is the lively center of the whole village. No matter who passes by or buys something, they are all discussed back and forth.
In the past few days, people were saying that he bought one boat after another, but today the trend has changed again, saying that he has bought another land and will make a lot of money again.
Everyone is guessing how much money he made from selling dried fish?
"I must have made a lot of money. Both boats cost several thousand, not to mention buying land. This salty fish businessman is not calling for nothing."
"Yes, yes, if there is a 10,000-yuan household appraisal this year, Adong will definitely be on it. He is now a role model for our entire village."
"It would be great if we could collect all the dried fish from the whole village. The villagers could also earn more money..."
"What everyone takes home is a mess of fish that no one wants. I heard it's not that popular, so it's better to sell the same kind of fish."
"I heard that their family brought back several thousand kilograms of Balang fish and killed them there today..."
"It's all hung up at the door, and it's drying there, tsk tsk tsk~ I don't know where he got the connections to sell so much..."
"What other ways are there? There are shops in the market. If you have the ability, you can buy a shop and sell it yourself. Maybe by then the folks will stop calling him Xianyudong and call him 豼Xianyufa instead..."
"How can I do this?"
…
Ye Yaodong had just stepped onto the shore and was about to push a cart over, when he heard everyone talking about him. Those who discussed the squid harvest did not talk about him as much.
At most, I asked a few questions about the harvest, and then turned to him again.
"Hey? A Dong is back..."
"How was the harvest, Dong? Is it more today than yesterday?"
"There should be more than us, right?"
"That's for sure. He has three boats. Any one of them has more boats than ours. You can even think about it with your buttocks..."
"Hey? You really bought that piece of land by the beach. I heard that the land was measured today. How much did it cost?"
"Are you going to use it to build a big workshop? I heard last night that you were going to use it to build a workshop to dry fish. Isn't it too wasteful?"
"Yes, you can dry it on any open space, so why bother buying a piece of land..."
"Did you really buy the land? I heard that someone has taken a fancy to it and wants to use it to build a house..."
The villagers crowded around him and kept talking, and he regretted hearing this. He regretted that he should not have disembarked from the boat, and that he should have let his eldest cousin get off the boat to push the cart.
No, I should tell my mother not to shout around, just buy it myself. After all, when the bricks are laid, everyone will know about it.
All major provincial issues have been rushed together. The popularity of the three ships has not passed some time ago, and now another piece of land is added. It is really sensational.
Throughout the ages, houses, shops, and land have been the most desired real estate for human beings.
Alas, his strength does not allow him to keep a low profile!
"Ah, everyone, make way, make way, we'll talk later. Don't block the road. First, let me push the cart over to pick up the goods."
"Okay, okay, everyone, give way first."
"Everyone give way..."
