Back to the small fishing village in 1982

Chapter 1224 Immediate Harvest
"Adong is so filial..."

"Yeah, when we open a company in the future, we have to use his father's name and let his father be the representative. That's unacceptable."

"Yeah, as a representative, don't you have to attend conferences often? Doesn't that mean you can see some leaders? Isn't it better than being in the newspaper?"

The boatmen who passed by them carrying goods all smiled and said a few words to them.

"I feel this legal person is extraordinary when I hear him. Old Ye is old and enjoying his life..."

"Congratulations! Ah Dong has made great progress. He still thinks of you even when he is doing well in his career. He is so filial..."

Ye Yaodong originally just said it jokingly, knowing that his father didn't know what a legal person did, and he was teasing his father on purpose.

I didn't expect that everyone took it so seriously. They didn't even know what a legal person did, and they kept complimenting his father.

He laughed so hard that his cheeks and stomach hurt, but he didn't dare bend over as he thought it was too much.

If the legal person is not careful, he may easily skip the commercial grain, receive the public grain, and eat the government's food.

Not only are there people to serve and accompany them, there is no need to worry about accidents. There is also a medical team that gives regular physical examinations to the elderly, so they can directly enjoy a happy life of retirement without having to take risks when going out to sea with him.

I just wonder if his father will be so angry that he dies when he finds out.

Father Ye had just finished listening to everyone's flattery and said a few humble words. Seeing him laughing so hard, he felt a little puzzled.

"What are you laughing at, Dongzi? Why are you laughing like that?"

"Nothing, I just think the policy will be relaxed in a few years."

"It's good that the policy is relaxed. Only when it is relaxed can everyone live a good life."

Seeing his father's beaming expression, Ye Yaodong couldn't help wanting to laugh, so he quickly changed the subject, "How was the harvest these days?"

"Not bad. I sold some goods to a freshwater ship at sea. The bill of lading and the money are with me."

Ye's father searched his pockets, looked around, avoided people, opened his coat to cover the item, and then handed it to him.

"Please keep it. You have rested enough in the past two days. When we go to the market later, I will not sell goods to you. I will go directly to the factory to rest."

"Well, you guys just go and have a rest. I'll ask the others to come and help me move the goods. There are so many people anyway, so it doesn't matter if they don't come with two people to collect the goods. They should be familiar with each other at the dock anyway."

"Well... I'm already this old, and I'm pretty well off now. Who in the village doesn't envy me for having raised several good children? I know you're filial, and you've given me a share of the Shunfeng ship, which is enough for my retirement. If you want to do business, just use your own name, and don't think about me. Otherwise, if something happens, you won't be able to explain your property. You brothers will be fine, but your sister-in-law and the others will be nagging."

When Ye Yaodong heard his father talking about it again, he thought he was looking forward to his future and how many people would envy him, but he didn't expect him to turn around and talk about this.

His playful expression disappeared and he stopped teasing his father.

"Got it." I was just joking.

However, it's good to make his father so happy. As long as he doesn't know what the legal person does, he will always be so happy.

After saying this, Ye's father was extremely pleased, and then continued to help move the goods.

Ah Guang came over and said, "You are really good. You can make our father so happy with just a few words."

He originally didn't know what Dongzi was talking about, but he found out after listening to the workers' conversation.

"How about I let you be the legal representative?"

Ah Guang's eyes widened. "Is this true? Then I won't be polite."

"You're welcome."

"Forget it. I don't feel comfortable doing that."

"Don't be embarrassed, we are friends."

Ah Guang patted his shoulder and said, "Good brother, I know it's worth knowing you in this life."

"of course."

"You gave me a sister, and now you're going to give me a company."

Ye Yaodong immediately stopped smiling and said, "When I register a company in two years, I will definitely list you as the legal representative."

"It's enough if you have this intention. Hurry up and move the goods. It's already dark."

After saying this, A Guang happily went to move the goods, leaving Ye Yaodong staring at his back with an angry look on his face, cursing silently in his heart.

Some of the goods are to be kept back for drying. If they are not suitable for unloading from the ship, they will be put back into the fish warehouse and pulled back tomorrow. This saves them the transportation fare, and they do not need to pull them to the city, nor do they need to pay a commission to the market.

After moving the goods, Ye Yaodong gave them the bill of lading of their goods from the previous few days for them to check.

Anyway, they will also sell goods in the market later, so they will know the market price and have a rough idea of ​​whether the price he gives is reasonable.

"If there's no problem, I'll settle the bill for you right after I sell all the goods. If you're in a hurry, you can settle it now, but I'm afraid that there will be too many people in and out of the market, and it might not be safe for you to carry the money with you..."

"Don't worry, you can still get married when you get home."

"Yeah, they're not strangers, so how can we not trust them? There's no need to be so anxious."

"There is still a batch of goods left on the ship for you. We can settle the bill together when the time comes. There is no need to settle it outside now to save trouble."

Seeing that they all had no objections, Ye Yaodong nodded and said, "Okay, then let's sell the goods first and then settle the bill when we get home."

He had finished his busy work in the city, and after selling all the goods, he drove the boat directly back to the village, and took those who had their turn to rest in the workshop with him.

At the same time, he also took the cigarettes he got on this trip back with him, and he felt more at ease putting them anywhere else than at home.

But I didn't expect that when I got home, there would be a lot of cigarettes and alcohol in the house.

Lin Xiuqing handed the work in the workshop to Pei Dongqing and went to follow Ye Yaodong's arrangements. She still had a lot of things she wanted to ask, which she had been holding back for several days.

"Didn't you say that your cousin from Linji was captured at sea? Why hasn't anyone come down to seal off their house these past two days? I've been paying special attention to what's going on in their Xishan Village these past two days, and there's nothing to gossip about."

Ye Yaodong helped her lift the basket of cigarettes with one hand, and with the other hand he put his index finger to his mouth and made a hushing gesture.

"Let's talk about it when we get home, so no one can hear us. We are the only ones who know about this now, so we can't tell anyone about it."

"I didn't tell anyone."

"Ah."

"His wife brought over several cartons of cigarettes and bottles of wine a few days ago. They were all in foreign languages. I didn't know what they were. I didn't want to accept them, but she pushed them in. I was afraid the neighbors would hear them, so I didn't dare to push them around. I just accepted them and hid them."

Ye Yaodong paused for a moment and then continued walking forward, "Did they send it over secretly?"

"Yes, I brought it here when it was dark, and I even covered the basket with a cloth."

"Oh, that's fine. Just accept it. It's a small token of your gratitude for notifying us in advance."

"It's all in foreign languages, is that bad?"

"No, don't forget, most of our relatives are overseas Chinese, so it's normal to have more foreign cigarettes and alcohol at home."

"Oh, then I feel relieved. I thought these things couldn't be seen by others."

"You can't let anyone see it when you bring it here, but it's okay in our house."

"Should they be arrested too?"

"I don't know. Don't worry about it. It's none of our business. We are just from the same village, so we informed Lin Ji after we saw it. After all, they are relatives. We don't know anything else. That's it."

He said this once on the phone, and now he said it again solemnly.

"Then I'll just pretend I know nothing."

"Ah."

The two men walked into the house and put the basket they were carrying on the ground. Lin Xiuqing couldn't wait to lift the clothes covering it.

When she just got it down from the car, she wanted to lift up her clothes to see what was inside, but Ye Yaodong stopped her, saying that she could only lift them up when she got home.

She had endured it until now and asked other questions first.

While she was lifting up her clothes, Ye Yaodong also went to close the door.

“Then your basket…” Lin Xiuqing’s eyes widened and her mouth opened wide.

"Could these be all sent to you by Linji? So many? Could these all be dirty?"

"To put it another way, this is ownerless property. He didn't give it to me. Didn't the two ships sink to the bottom of the sea? It's possible that a few boxes of cargo were swallowed by the whale and then vomited out, so they floated up. We were in that area at the time, so we fished them out."

"How come you have so much extra money..."

Ye Yaodong spread his hands and said, "I want to know too. Sigh, I always encounter all kinds of things. Maybe these windfalls are my compensation."

"Put these away for now, there are too many." She flipped through them casually, and found that they were all in foreign languages, none of which she recognized.

"Next time you go to Vancouver, bring a few as a gift to Fang Jingfu. They are rare items, and foreign exchange certificates are hard to come by."

"I should give my godfather two."

"I stayed in the city for the past two days and delivered another can. I didn't dare to deliver more. I will deliver two more to him when I pass through the city on my next trip to the provincial capital."

Lin Xiuqing looked at him in surprise, "Why are you going to the provincial capital?"

Ye Yaodong also talked about some things he had done during his stay in the city in the past few days.

"I thought you went out to sea after you hung up the phone. You haven't come back in all these days and have been staying in the city the whole time."

"Well, it just so happens that I haven't been in charge of the city's affairs, so I'll just leave it to them to deal with it. I'll stay there for a few days and manage it. I can't leave everything to others. I don't know. I've also done a lot of things in the past few days."

"I'll put these cigarettes away first. Your clothes are already wet. If you cover them with them, aren't you afraid that the cigarettes will get wet..."

“It’s got plastic wrap.”

"It will get damp, so just cover it and store it properly. How much does this pack of cigarettes cost?"

"A pack costs several yuan, or even more than ten yuan, and a strip costs about a hundred yuan."

Lin Xiuqing tightened the cigarette in her arms and looked down. "It's so expensive! Normal cigarettes here are only a few cents a pack, the cheaper ones are a few cents, and the more expensive ones are no more than a dollar. How many dollars does this pack cost?"

"These foreign things are so expensive, but people still buy them. They really have money but nowhere to spend it. What kind of people are the customers of those Friendship Stores..."

"The gap between people is too big. How many people still can't get enough food and can't earn more than one or two yuan a day, while some people can still go to the Friendship Store to shop. Last time I saw the doll your daughter was playing with, it cost more than 100 yuan..."

"It's true... people get so angry when they compare themselves to others... the rich are so rich, while the poor can't even afford to eat..."

Lin Xiuqing muttered to herself as she sorted them out. Although she had money, the value of these cigarettes also gave her a shock.

"If a pack of cigarettes costs a hundred yuan, and there are dozens of them here, it must be several thousand or even tens of thousands of yuan. How much cargo is there on that ship? Boom..."

She muttered, suddenly realizing this and couldn't help but be shocked.

Ye Yaodong was getting himself some water to take a shower, and said casually, "It doesn't have to be a whole ship full of cigarettes. If it were, that would be too much. Even smuggling cars isn't that serious."

She breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's right. It gives me a shock. Are cars still smuggled?"

"Plenty."

"These people are so bold that they dare to do anything."

……

The couple stayed in the room, talking to each other incessantly and sorting out the cigarettes that Ye Yaodong brought back. The door was closed and the old lady didn't dare to come in.

Ye Xiaoxi played outside for a while, running and jumping around, wanting to go home, but she was still taken out to play.

It was not until the door was reopened that the old man and the young returned home.

"It smells so good. I'm hungry..."

Ye Yaodong was also eating noodle soup, and there was a steaming bowl of it on the table.

"You came back here following the smell, didn't you?"

The old lady smiled and said, "She's been jumping around all day, which is exhausting."

Lin Xiuqing untied her apron and said, "That bowl is for Dad. Don't give it to her. She's not hungry at all. She's just greedy and she's greedy because of the smell. I'll go to the workshop to see how they're weighing the goods, and call Dad back to eat."

Ye Yaodong held Ye Xiaoxi on his lap and fed her a few mouthfuls of food, but the old lady was worried that Dongzi didn't eat enough, so she coaxed Ye Xiaoxi down and took her to buy some candy.

How could Ye Xiaoxi refuse? When she heard that she wanted to buy some candy, she immediately climbed down, took the old lady's hand and went to the store.

He ate the noodles in the bowl quickly. When he finished, his father came over. He asked his father to look after the house first while he went to take a look at the workshop.

Who would have thought that as soon as he arrived at the workshop, Lin Xiuqing asked him what the legal person was?
"Hasn't the magic potion been consumed yet? I was saying, my dad almost floated when he was walking just now."

"Everyone praised you for being filial, saying that you are getting better and better, that you are rich, and that your father is the first in your heart. So they said all kinds of things about what a legal person is."

Ye Yaodong just coughed, then whispered to her, "I just teased Dad at the dock yesterday and said something. I didn't expect it to spread so widely. I came back and told it again."

“So what is a legal person?”

"If something happens to the company, the legal representative will take the blame. Ahem, they are right to say that he is the representative of the company. Anyway, if anything goes wrong, the legal representative will be held accountable..."

Lin Xiuqing looked at him in disbelief, wanting to say something to him but not knowing how.

"Uh... don't let Dad know, or he'll be mad to death."

"I was just saying it casually."

"Dad has been arrested twice and is already upset about it. Are you still joking about this?"

Ye Yaodong touched his nose and said, "As long as I abide by the law, my father can still be a glorious legal person."

Lin Xiuqing glared at him and slapped him, "Not serious."

"After we have weighed the goods, you can settle the bill with them."

"I know. I just have to wait until the scale is checked and I get the receipt before I can settle the bill and pay you all at once."

There were a lot of men in the workshop carrying things back and forth.

When the women in the village heard that the fishing boats had returned, they all came over spontaneously with their kitchen knives and chopping boards. There was no need for Lin Xiuqing to go out and call for help, as they had all already prepared the work.

And also along came Ye Erbo, which surprised Ye Yaodong.

Because the goods had just arrived, there were a lot of people coming in and out and everyone was very busy, so there was no one guarding the door to stop people.

He only realized it when Ye Erbo walked straight up to Ye Yaodong and greeted him.

"Haha, you're back? What a great harvest! You brought back so much goods. You must have made a lot of money every time you went out to sea."

"Generally speaking, the expenses are high, the labor and fuel costs are not a small amount, and I bought these goods from their ship, so I spent money on them."

"I haven't given you the money for the Qingming Festival. When we got Comrade Yaohai's number, we got together to discuss it. We forgot about it until the next day when we remembered it and heard that you had gone out to sea. I asked my sons to leave the money with me and send it to you when you come back."

Ye Yaodong watched him count the money one by one and then handed it to him. He took it without hesitation.

"It's been so long, it's hard for you to remember. I'm not at home, but isn't Qing at home? It's the same if you just give it to her directly."

"Didn't you say you would give it to your father? Your father has gone out to sea with you guys, so I thought it would be the same if I gave it to him after you guys came back."

Ye Yaodong responded perfunctorily, and when he saw his father coming, he waved to him, and then gave the money his second uncle gave him directly to his father.

Father Ye smiled so hard that his teeth were showing, and he felt that his fortune had been good recently.

As expected, I still have to follow Dongzi.

I followed the eldest and second bosses for the first two months, and apart from the salary, nothing else increased.

"I thought you had forgotten."

"This is money for memorializing our ancestors, how could I forget it?"

Father Ye did not count the money. He just scratched the edge, folded it and put it in his pocket.

"I haven't been home these days, so I don't know how things are going for you guys? Can you contact Lao Hai?"

Ye Erbo was waiting for him to ask this question. "I was so anxious when I couldn't get in touch with him for the first two days. I thought I couldn't find him. It took two or three days before I was able to get in touch with him."

"During Qingming Festival, people go home to worship their ancestors, so it's normal for them to stay at home for a few more days."

"Yes, that's what he said. After we got in touch, I told him that I wanted to send my two grandchildren abroad and told him the ages of the children. He said he would make arrangements first and asked me to raise the money first and let me know when it was ready."

"Oh, then just wait for notification."

"Oh, this is a huge sum of money. You know, although my sons went to Vancouver with Dongzi last year, they didn't make much money..."

Ye Yaodong said, "This is easy. I'll ask my cousins ​​to help out and each contribute a little. I'll also go back and talk to my sisters-in-law's families. As my uncle's family, how can they not contribute? I'll also take some money from my second uncle's coffin fund, and it shouldn't be much of a difference."

"When your own children go abroad, how can you not help to raise some money as uncles and aunts? Sending one person abroad should only cost a few thousand yuan, right? There are so many families, each of them can raise 500 yuan, and your family can pay a little more, so it won't make a difference."

Uncle Ye was choked and had to say to Father Ye: "Not everyone has an easy life. If you want to pay 500 yuan, you have to consider the difficulties of the family."

Father Ye asked curiously, "How much does it cost to send someone out?"

"Comrade Yaohai said that it would cost 6000 yuan to send someone out, and there was no guarantee of success. If it succeeded, everyone would be happy, and they would be given a job. We are taking a gamble."

"Ah, 6000. That's 12000 for two kids. That's a lot. 6000 for a family. The family is completely broke. We have to borrow a lot."

"Who said it wasn't... Well, if the relatives are doing well, I'm willing to help them a little. If they're not doing well, there's nothing I can do."

"That's true……"

Lin Xiuqing pulled Ye Yaodong forward and said, "We are almost done weighing the goods. Let's take a look at the order."

"Ah."

Ye Yaodong didn't care about his father. After all, he was his father's brother. Let his father talk to his brother himself. He had other things to do.

Seeing that they had just returned and were indeed busy, Uncle Ye Er pulled Father aside and talked to him and complained.

Mr. Ye couldn't save face, so he had to listen to him and then agree with him.

After Lin Xiuqing and the others left behind, he said to Ye Yaodong, "Didn't Second Uncle just say that people with better conditions should contribute some money to help? Really, don't you see how busy we are now? You just came back and you rushed over here, worried that you would go out to sea again and not be able to meet anyone."

"Have you been to your house in the past two days?"

"Yes, my second aunt came to my house twice, once to our house and once to my eldest and second aunts-in-law. I told them you were not at home and I would have to wait for you to come back to discuss it with you. They said they had no money and that they had just bought the boat before the New Year and spent a lot of money on it. They were still in debt and the boat had not started to make money yet, so they could not help."

"Oh."

Ye Yaodong thought it would be okay to go home later and discuss it.

This is actually not a difficult thing to do, and it is not a matter of money. Giving 500 from a family is really nothing to him, and it is not like giving 5000 and making him bear the bulk of the cost.

Just like everyone else, giving a little bit of appreciation is acceptable, just like supporting your nephew.

The second uncle is shameless and the cousin is unreliable. They cannot influence the next generation.

After all, the money will be spent on my nephews.

He was willing to spend money on the children, even if it meant sending them abroad illegally.

All relatives and friends have helped. There is no reason for him not to give some support when he is so rich. There is no major conflict between their two families, and they do not have any non-intercourse with each other.

Rural people all live in the same village, and even if there are some frictions and conflicts among family members, the human nature is not so indifferent.

Whenever he wanted to lend money out, his mother would nag him for a long time. At the very beginning, his parents had already had a fight as soon as there were signs of it.

He is very busy at the moment and has no time to talk about this matter with his second uncle. It is better to leave it to his father to deal with it first and ask his father later.

"Mother has been telling me not to lend money, so I can only hold off until you come back. I thought that if other relatives also took money, then we should at least give a little. After all, everyone knows that we have money. Second uncle's family is not the same as eldest uncle's family, and we have offended everyone."

"Let's talk about it after we're done. Let's see if Dongqing has finished his calculations."

"Ah."

Ye's mother should be at work at this time and didn't come over, otherwise Uncle Ye wouldn't have been able to talk to Ye's father for so long.

When Ye Yaodong and his wife went home to settle their accounts, his father was still tripped by Ye Erbo.

After all, he is his brother, so he should bear the consequences.

The couple went straight home to do their work without paying any attention to his father.

After they settled the bills, they delivered the money to each family.

Except for Brother Zhou's, he has shares in several other ships, but they all settle accounts at the end of the month. He gets paid based on how much the ships sell each time, and they calculate the dividends together at the end of the month.

Although Ye Yaodong stayed in the city and did not go out to sea this time, he still stayed up all night selling goods.

After finishing the work, he went straight to bed. The boatman was responsible for the finishing work, and A Qing was responsible for the supervision.

He woke up in the middle of the night. It was pitch black outside. After waking up for a while, he closed his eyes again until dawn the next day.

But the next morning, before he had time to ask his father what his second uncle had said the day before, Secretary Chen hurried over to him and said that the kelp might be harvested soon and asked him to go and take a look.

When Ye Yaodong heard this, his face was filled with joy and he quickly ran out following Secretary Chen, asking about the situation as he ran.

Secretary Chen also had a very happy look on his face.

"The two workers said that we can harvest them in the next two days. The leaves have grown very big. It's a good opportunity to harvest them and dry them in the sun for a few days to get white pulp."

"I heard you were back yesterday. You must be very busy since you just came back, so I waited until early this morning to come and tell you."

"If you hadn't come back in the next two days, we would have decided to just collect it and dry it first. When you come back, you can go and take a look."

"The two workers also said that the water flow here is quite suitable. The output this year is quite good and we should be able to sell it at a good price. The past six months of hard work have not been in vain."

Ye Yaodong also smiled and said: "I will go out to sea to take a look, and then I will make a phone call to ask about the price. I have been busy for half a year, waiting for this moment."

"Yes, we are looking forward to the harvest. When folks see me on the road, they always ask me when the kelp will be harvested. Everyone is looking forward to the harvest."

"This is the first step for our whole village to become rich. After the harvest, we can plant crops together in the second half of the year. Let's learn how to plant crops first. If you want to participate, one person from each family can participate, so that we can share the risk together. Next year, when everyone knows how to plant crops, they can plant crops as a family unit."

"Well, you go out to sea and take a look first. Although the two workers said that it's time to harvest, I still want to hear your opinion. There is no one in the whole village who is more knowledgeable than you."

"No, if anyone has experience, it's the two workers we hired."

"It was you who suggested raising it, and you also told me several times that we should go and take a look first."

Ye Yaodong followed Secretary Chen as they walked to the dock, and drove his own boat No. 7 out to sea, heading for the breeding base, which was just along the coast, not far away.

However, after watching it, he still suggested staying for another three to five days.

Judging from the size of the leaves, although they are not as good as those that were optimized in the previous life, they are much better than the wild ones growing on the reefs.

He asked two workers to adjust the position and height of the fixture to prevent the kelp from being too dense and affecting the supply of light and nutrients.

They were also asked to remove floating mud and algae from the fixtures to prevent the kelp from being contaminated or suffocated.

If you manage it, it can grow longer.

Now it is almost time to harvest. The growth is changing every day. If you keep it for one more day, it will grow a little more.

If there is no lesion, there is no need to worry about it rotting if left for one more day, and there will be no typhoons in this season.

After Ye Yaodong made this suggestion, the other two hired workers also accepted it and thought that it would be okay to stay for another three to five days with some adjustments.

When we returned, Secretary Chen said, "Then why don't you come with me to the village committee and call to ask about the price?"

"Why rush? It will take three to five days to receive the goods. It will take several days to dry them. The price of this kind of goods changes every day. It is a little higher when it is first released, and it will definitely drop as the quantity increases. If you ask in advance and it is not accurate at the time, won't you feel disappointed?"

I thought he was deliberately lowering the price. He said one price and then another when he received the money.

"That's right, then wait and ask again when you have income."

"Ah."

He thought about calling and asking again later, and then asking again when he received the goods, to see if the price had changed much.

You also have to calculate the purchase price yourself.

Last year, he bought one pound for 6 cents, and he could sell it to Boss Zhou for 1 cents.

There is less supply these days, so the price fluctuation should not be too big.

I just don't know how many kilograms of yield per mu can reach?
There are 400 ropes hanging in each acre of kelp farming area, and each rope contains more than 120 kelps. He just picked up the rope and estimated that each rope is expected to weigh more than 100 kilograms. Well... this one is filled with water.

We will have to wait until the crops are harvested to know the details, but he sees that the crops are growing very well. If they continue to grow for a few more days, we should be able to harvest eight to ten tons per acre.

In the past life, one acre of land could yield more than 20 to 30 tons of high-quality kelp.

We can’t compare technology now, but we can compare water quality and weather.

At least the sea is not polluted now.

After Ye Yaodong and others got ashore, they parted ways with Secretary Chen, wondering how much kelp they could harvest from this batch of kelp.

Because it is just an experimental field, not many fish are raised, only 30 acres.

According to the labor force of an average family, it is normal for a family to raise more than ten acres of crops, and raising thirty acres for an experiment is not a lot.

Once the whole village is involved in breeding, tens of thousands of acres will be no problem.

Once all the villagers have mastered this breeding technology, it will be no problem to feed the entire village and drive its development.

"father……"

Ye Yaodong was thinking with his head down, listening to the children's calls. He looked up and saw that all his children were in the cherry orchard near the Tianhou Temple.

That’s right, it has become a cherry orchard of considerable size.

Three years ago, the cherries planted by a group of children in his family have grown into small trees and are now bearing some scattered fruits.

These children have come out frequently in recent years to take care of their saplings.

But they are still very young and inexperienced, so they ran out eagerly.

"What are you all doing here? Have you eaten yet? This is still green and not cooked yet. You can't eat it."

Ye Chenghai said: "We had just finished eating and it was not time for school yet, so we came out to check and found someone stealing them."

"Those shameless, naive dogs won't care whether the fruits are ripe or not. They will definitely come and steal them. We have to watch them!" Ye Chenghe cursed.

Ye Chengjiang also said: "We saw someone stealing our cherries yesterday, and we just beat them up."

The child was really greedy and didn't care whether the fruit was ripe or not. Ye Yaodong knew it too.

"It just so happens that your grandfather came back yesterday. Go ask him to get some nets and put up some fences to surround the area so that no one can steal the picks."

"Okay, I'll call him over right away."

"And by the way, ask him to make two scarecrows, so that even birds won't steal the food."

They were all excited, "That's great."

After three years of planting, I will soon be able to taste the fruits of my labor.
