Back to the small fishing village in 1982

Chapter 1292 Leaving the Port
The flowers have been spent, what else can I say?
Didn’t he earn all of it?
If you don’t spend money first, how can you make money later?

Aren't all the fishing boats he owns built by spending money first and then making money later?
There is something to do with home.

Who dares to object to his spending money now? At most, his mother might scold him for being a spendthrift out of pity, but that would not be a big deal.

Ye Yaodong didn't take his family's opinions to heart. After all, at this point, it wasn't that they didn't trust him, they just felt bad about spending so much money.

The older generation is all conservative, and they are not like his father who has always been by his side. Because they have seen so much, even their voices of opposition have become smaller.

This time he took out a loan to buy the boat, spending more than 300,000 yuan, and his father didn't say a word.

This actually means that your horizons have broadened, your contacts have expanded, and your vision has become bigger.

Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua also cared about him and were worried that he would be scolded. If it was their son who spent the money, they would definitely be heartbroken.

Seeing that he didn't care, the two men didn't mention his act of acting without authorization, and instead talked about how glorious he would be when he returned to the village.

The three brothers stood on the deck chatting and laughing, and when the fishing boat reached the center of the sea, they set off three fireworks in a row.

It’s broad daylight and you can’t see anything. You can just listen to the sound, feel happy, and go through the ritual.

After the fishing boat arrived at the port and they paid the fee, the four of them, father and son, went home.

It was noon already. The workers had had a complete rest for the past two days and were about to go home. They had no mood to cook. Each of them had money in their pockets, so they went out to eat in groups of three or four. Some of them did not come back until dark.

Ye Yaodong and his two sons also ate at a small roadside restaurant outside and went back only after they were full.

He instructed that not everyone could run away and that someone must stay at home to watch over them.

In fact, there are old landlords who sit at the door 24 hours a day. There are also many local elderly people and women around who like to work at the door, weaving and mending nets. So you don’t have to worry too much about someone sneaking into the house during the day.

When they returned home, it was already afternoon and they started playing cards again.

Ye Yaodong casually greeted and asked.

It turned out that everyone had shopped enough yesterday and in the morning, so they didn't plan to go out in the afternoon and just stayed at home playing cards.

Ye's father asked him, "Are you going out this afternoon?"

"I have to go out again. I still have a lot of things to buy. I have to go to a big store to buy them."

"Then go by yourself. I won't go out. I bought everything yesterday."

"okay."

He went to a larger store and bought some high-end smuggled goods, which he planned to bring back to Vancouver and also take home as gifts.

It is more prestigious to talk about the high-end goods brought back from other places.

Even if they are small things, the farther away they are brought back from, the rarer they are.

He rode his bike around the place for the entire afternoon, counting on his fingers as he shopped. He had thought about what to give to whom, calculated the number of gifts, and bought some extra just in case he missed anything.

Buying a little more won’t go wrong anyway. When he has bought enough, he will go back with a lot of bags.

Thinking that they would be going back soon and Lin Guangyuan was still serving in the army here alone, he wrote another letter temporarily and planned to give it to the landlord.

Next time, if there were any soldiers delivering letters, he would ask the landlady to pass the letter on, and he would leave a dollar for her as a commission.

It took almost a month from beginning to end, and they exchanged letters twice. He gave him a total of 100 yuan.

I originally wanted to give more, but I didn't see anyone. Fortunately, the army doesn't cost much and there are allowances.

If we wait until next year, we can apply for visitation and get a little more money.

For the next two days, everyone had nothing to do but wait. Every day they went back and forth to the dock in a hurry, sighing and cursing the God.

It was not until the 5th that Ye Yaodong heard the weather forecast saying that tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow would all be sunny or sunny to cloudy, with wind speeds of only level or . Everyone was happy then, and they could finally go home.

I was supposed to have a day off on New Year's Day, but I had to wait until the 5th to find out for sure that I could go home the next day.

Everyone ran around telling each other excitedly.

After a while, everyone came running to their side.

It was late at night, but it was busier than during the day, with the sound of people talking and chatting all around the door.

"Is this weather forecast accurate?"

"No matter whether it's accurate or not, it means the wind speed will be 2 to 4 tomorrow, so we should hurry back."

"Won't we know if we go out to sea tomorrow?"

"I can finally go back home. I've been waiting for so many days. If I had gone back on the 2nd, I would have been home long ago."

The workers gathered in a circle to talk, and the captains also gathered in a separate circle to talk.

Ye Yaodong repeated what he had said at A Guang's house when he was collecting the debt a few days ago. Anyway, the meaning was that he would stop in Vancouver for a day, and others could decide based on their personal wishes and did not have to wait for him.

"Then we need to think about this..."

"What time do we leave tomorrow? If it's dark there, we can stay overnight. Doesn't the weather forecast say it will be sunny for the next few days?"

"We can set off early at night. If you want to go back, you can go back directly. We can split into two groups..."

After a long and noisy discussion, we finally decided to set off at 3 a.m.

It was said that we would leave at this time, but in fact, if we were delayed at the dock and it took more than an hour to move the goods, it would be dawn by the time we set off.

As for whether or not to stay in Vancouver for another day, no one was able to make up their mind. After all, Ye Yaodong was their backbone, he had many boats, and everyone followed him out, so they all tended to follow him back.

They were talking about a lot of noise, and the surrounding residents were a little fed up with the noise so noisy late at night, so people came out one after another to ask them to stop making noise.

Everyone lowered their voices and just communicated briefly.

He just said he would go to Vancouver first, moor at the Vancouver pier for some repairs, and then decide whether to go back immediately.

After all, many times, plans cannot keep up with changes. First decide the departure time, and the rest will have to be adjusted temporarily.

Then everyone went back to their homes and dispersed.

Ye Yaodong and the others returned to the house and continued to pack up their things. After all, there were still some daily necessities that could be used before they left.

I've packed it up now, so I can take away all the sundries like pots, pans, and other items early in the morning. As for bedding, I can only pack it up after I wake up.

After everyone had finished packing, Father Ye checked everything inside and out again and again, making sure that everything that needed to be packed was packed. Only then did he feel relieved.

"We didn't order a truck in advance, so we have to get up early tomorrow and it will take a long time to move everything."

Ye Yaodong agreed, "I know. I'll get up early tomorrow and ride my bike to the dock to find a large truck to transport the goods. It's easy."

"Then mark which bag of dried fish you put the gold in."

"know."

"There are so many dried fish. If you get mixed up, where are you going to find them..."

"Go to sleep quickly, stop being so long-winded."

Father Ye went to bed, then quietly reached into the pillow with one hand and took out the gold ring he had hidden to play with.

This is for men, but the ring is not open.

He works all year round, so the joints of his fingers are big and rough. Now in winter, they are covered with calluses and peeling, so he can't wear the watch at all. He can only wear it on his little finger, but it will be very loose even if he wears it on his little finger.

Moreover, this was picked up, and no one knew who dropped it. Ye's father didn't intend to wear it. He just wanted to play with it and keep it as a souvenir.

After he had enough fun, he would tuck his head back into the pillow, close his eyes and go to sleep.

They said they were going to sleep, but they would be able to go back soon. Both the father and the son were very excited and could only close their eyes and rest.

They both got up before the time came, and as soon as they heard any noise, the workers in the next room also got up immediately.

In the middle of the night, there was a suppressed noise from their side again.

Everyone quickly packed up the bedding and other things that had not been packed.

Ye Yaodong packed up the miscellaneous items at home and handed them over to his father. He rode his bicycle to the dock and waited for a big Liberation bicycle to come in.

The 20 or so workers under his command moved the luggage to the entrance of the alley and waited for him on time.

In the darkness, everyone was overjoyed.

The truck had just stopped and he hadn't even jumped out when he saw them carrying the luggage and throwing it onto the truck.

"Don't pack the luggage yet. Pack the dried fish first and move them to another rental house that is used for storage. After that, move the things in this room and then move everyone's miscellaneous items."

"Oh, okay, okay... let's move the dried fish first..."

There was no room for a large truck to park in front of their rental house. Fortunately, he had a lot of workers, and more than 20 people were carrying the goods back and forth. It took two trips to load all the dried fish and everyone's groceries onto the truck.

Father Ye was still worried and walked back and forth to the rental house they rented several times to confirm that nothing was left behind. Only then did he feel relieved and, at everyone's urging, got in the car and went to the pier together.

By the time they had finished unloading the cargo and stood on the boat, it was already daybreak.

We originally planned to set off at 3 o'clock. Even though everyone got up at one or two o'clock, we were still busy until after 5 o'clock, when it was already daybreak, before we managed to stack all the things on the boat.

They had also made an agreement with other ships long ago that whichever ship was ready would leave the port first and gather in the middle of the sea outside.

Otherwise, with so many people coming and going on the dock and so many fishing boats, it would be inconvenient to go back and forth to confirm, which would only waste time.

Now it seems that there has been quite a bit of delay.

The main reason is that they have a lot of goods and things, so it takes the longest time.

"Dad, check the boat. I'll go count the people to see if everyone is there. I'll also assign people to the various boats. Let Chen Laoqi drive the Dongsheng."

"Okay, I'll take charge of the fresh-catch boat. The goods are all on this boat. You can take charge of the new boat."

"Ah."

After confirming it, the father and son went about their work separately.

Ye Yaodong counted the number of people and found that everyone was present and no one was left out, so he assigned the 23 people including himself.

There were 1 people on each of the Ocean No. 7, Dongsheng and the seafood collecting boat, and two more people were put on a small boat, who took turns driving the small boat and following behind the big ship.

All of his workers now know how to drive a boat. The original novices have become veterans after working here for half a year.

After the assignment, he asked them to go to the corresponding boats, and asked the two people on the small boat to drive the small boat directly to the middle of the sea to meet up with other fishing boats.

These large ships have to wait for some time, and they have to be inspected, worship Mazu, and go through some rituals before they can leave the port.

No workers knew that Ye Yaodong had brought the Ocean No. 1 back and parked it at the port, except for the four of them, father and son. The others had not heard him mention it and thought they would have to wait until next year before they could bring the ship back.

After all, the ship is big and the renovation will take longer, which they think is normal.

The six people who rowed to his side watched as everyone else went to their corresponding boats and took up their positions. They were the only ones who stayed where they were, and they all felt a little anxious.

"Brother Dong, they are all on the boat, what about us?"

"You follow me."

"Which boat shall we take?"

"Just follow me." Ye Yaodong was the first to get off the boat.

The others were a little at a loss when they saw him getting off the seafood boat.

"Boss, should we stay here?"

"You really want to stay?"

Ajian quickly shook his head.

"Come with me to the other boat."

"You still have a boat!?"

Chen Shi said excitedly: "Wow..."

Ye Yaodong smiled and said, "The cargo ship was remodeled a few days ago and has already returned and is parked at the dock. Let's go back together this time. You can follow me on the new ship."

Everyone was surprised.

"Fuck!"

"Really? Before we heard you say that, we thought it wasn't finished yet."

"Too strong! Hurry up, hurry up, let's go aboard and take a look at what has been transformed into."

"It's amazing. A 44-meter boat. If it goes back this way, the whole village will be shocked."

"Brother Dong is really amazing. It will be so impressive if we drive this back."

"That's amazing. That ship costs hundreds of thousands. I can actually ride on a ship worth hundreds of thousands? Even if I sell my whole family 10 times or 8 times, it's still not worth that much money..."

"Hey, we can get on Adong's new ship, but others can't..."

"You can't call me Adong Adong anymore, you have to call me boss, hahahaha..."

Ye Yaodong seemed to be very excited and happy. "It doesn't matter what you call me."

"That's called Salty Fish Dong!"

Ye Yaodong slapped him, "Don't yell that!"

"Hahahaha~"

"I saw the new boat, with a big red flower tied to it. Brother Dong, did you take a picture? It's so majestic."

"We've taken the photo. Hurry up and get on the boat. The other fishing boats are all at sea, and this is the only boat that hasn't left yet."

"Come on, come on, let's go on board and take a look."

After Ye Yaodong got on board, he first checked everywhere. The cockpit, cabin, and fish warehouse were all locked. The machines on the deck were all polished and tied with big red flowers.

Others touched here, looked there, made constant sounds of admiration, and drooled with envy.

It was not until Ye Yaodong finished his inspection and shouted at them to get ready to set off that they took their positions, some raised the anchor, some untied the ropes, and cooperated with the fishing boat to leave the port.

There are many fishing boats going out to sea early in the morning.

There are ships as big as theirs on the sea, and they are not the only ones. But the one with the big red flower tied to it is unique, which means someone has made a lot of money and bought a big ship.

He had just entered the queue to leave the port, and all eyes around him were focused on his boat, full of envy.

"We didn't know the boss had a new ship, so the others certainly didn't know!"

"When we get to the sea later, I'll make you all jealous."

Ye Yaodong sat in the cockpit, looking down at the surrounding fishing boats. He could clearly see that the people on the decks of those fishing boats were staring at this side. He felt a great sense of accomplishment and his mouth corners were always raised.

He first tuned to their collective channel, and as soon as he connected, he heard a lot of talking.

A Guang: "Damn, the Dongzi ship is coming back?"

Zhou Da: "Haha, I said all the boats have arrived, why did Uncle Ye say that Adong hasn't arrived yet..."

There is no more at night, don’t wait, this one is for the early morning.

Let’s schedule the night update for 7pm tomorrow night so that no one has to stay up late.
