Back to the small fishing village in 1982

Chapter 1342 Application
He goes out early and comes back late every day, or he is busy outside all day long, so how could he have the energy to think about such bold things?

Only now that I have taken a break and relaxed my mind can I have some ideas, but I also feel very tired, so I have to ask for some advantage with my words first.

Seeing him rubbing his feet back and forth in the foot basin, Lin Xiuqing squatted down and rubbed his feet manually.

"How can you rub your feet clean just by rubbing them back and forth? You haven't had a good bath in days, they are all dirty."

"Just rub what needs to be rubbed clean."

"I saw you didn't wash seriously just now. Wash it again tomorrow and I'll rub your neck and back."

"You might as well give me a bath."

Lin Xiuqing rolled her eyes at him and took the footcloth to wipe his feet dry.

"Why don't we take advantage of the workers still building a warehouse over there and ask them to come over later to build a bathroom at the back door? There's an enclosed space where we can take a shower in winter without getting cold. We can also shower from head to toe directly, and it's convenient for us to take a shower together."

She glared at him. "The latter part is the key point, right? You're lucky you could come up with that. There are so many people at home, aren't you ashamed? How can you be so embarrassed?"

"Why bother... In winter, we only take a shower once a week. There's an empty room on the first floor. The two boys are taking showers in the next room now, isn't it the same? There's no need to shower from head to toe like in the summer. You're addicted to spending money."

It is indeed still early now. Let's wait a few years until toilets and shower heads become more popular, and then we can build a bathroom.

"That's it."

"Don't be so quick to think about this and that while you're working. Just pull another phone line next week."

"Two ties. I wonder if the city will tie them to the factory or the store."

Lin Xiuqing thought for a moment and said, "Why not bring it to the store? If some customers or troops need to deliver goods, they can call the store directly and tell my dad to arrange it. It will also be more convenient for us to contact my dad, so we don't have to ask the factory to pass on the message and run back and forth to answer the phone."

"Okay, then let's transfer it to the store, so that those people in the factory won't make random calls. Anyway, they are only responsible for fermentation and work, and your father will be responsible for the delivery arrangements."

"Well, I'll take the bath water out and pour it out, and bring you some snacks later."

Ye Yaodong put on a vest and shorts, leaned against the head of the bed, lit a cigarette, and waited for his wife to serve him.

A delicious bowl of seafood noodles, topped with two poached eggs, sprinkled with chopped green onions and his favorite coriander, made him even hungrier.

He put out his cigarette and came down to sit at the table to eat.

"Would you like some?"

"There's another bowl. The old lady also cooked one for me."

"This is to ask you not to eat at night and sleep with me."

"He's crazy. He must be tired from watching us busying around in and out."

In fact, she felt fine and didn't say she was particularly tired. She was used to doing it in her daily life. What's more, he came back often. No matter how busy she was, she could see him occasionally. He was her spiritual support.

With a man by her side, she feels no matter how tired she is. She has spiritual support and feels motivated no matter how busy she is.

But after eating, he forced her to rest with him, so she simply lay down with him.

Ye Yaodong really felt a little tired. He was just talking nonsense just now. He had just taken a shower and had a full meal, so he was feeling lazy and sleepy.

I hugged my wife and wanted to fall asleep right away, but I didn’t fall asleep right away. My hands were idle, so I started touching her and felt uncomfortable again.

I had no choice but to turn my empty talk into actual action.

After the fight, I felt more sleepy and fell asleep as soon as I closed my eyes.

Lin Xiuqing was held in his arms and slept with him.

The next morning, as soon as Ye Yaodong woke up, he went straight to the squid shreds workshop.

That's right, he had already changed his name verbally.

Early this morning, Lin Xiuqing had already arranged to try baking a batch of dried fish.

The couple went to bed early last night and slept until midnight, so they didn't have any plans.

Even Ye Xiaoxi was left alone last night and slept with the old lady.

When he got there, the machine was still running and there were already quite a few workers gathered around watching.

Seeing that everything was normal and the dehumidification and baking were not so fast, he went back to eat and then went to the village committee to apply for the installation of a telephone.

"You're planning to install a private telephone in your home?"

"Yes, after all, I have too many calls now. It's troublesome to run back and forth to the village committee every day to answer the phone. And I have to ask people to wait there to make the second call, which is too time-consuming."

"Okay, then I'll help you write an application report."

"What happened to the advanced youth you kept talking about? You told me last month that you shouldn't go out to sea for a few days. Well, now a month has passed and there is still no sign of you. Did someone else pick the peach?"

"Not yet. I just estimated based on past experience. I didn't expect it to be a little late this year. But don't worry, it won't be later than the end of this month. After all, next month is the May Fourth Youth Day."

"Okay, I'm still waiting to be in the newspaper."

"Hahaha, I can't do that. At most I can take a photo as a souvenir."

"Okay, then help me apply for a telephone line."

"Got it. Today is Friday. I'll let you apply on Monday. How much is the kelp this year? Do you have an idea? The weather has been good for the past month, and the kelp in the village is growing well now."

"I'm going to the city tomorrow, and I'll ask about it. It's still early now, so there shouldn't be a price yet. I'll keep an eye out for it in the near future."

"Row."

After Ye Yaodong finished talking to Secretary Chen, he planned to go back to the workshop to check on the drying progress of the dried fish. Unexpectedly, the phone rang and it was someone looking for him.

This time there was no need to wait or pass the message, he just picked up the phone and it turned out to be his father.

His father's ship docked in the early morning. There was no rush to unload the cargo. He slept on the boat first and only called him back at dawn to inform him and wait for him to make arrangements.

After Ye Yaodong hung up the phone, he said hello to Secretary Chen and hurried back to ride his motorcycle.

Before leaving, he rode to the workshop and informed Lin Xiuqing, asking her to prepare to receive the goods. The fishing boat should be back around the evening.

"You were still talking about it yesterday, and you came back today..."

"Well, you make the arrangements. I'm leaving first."

He put on his helmet and walked away handsomely.

Although the old women in the workshop looked at him a lot, they couldn't help but talk about him and praise him. What's more, Lin Xiuqing had recruited two educated young girls to help her during this period.

Ye Yaodong is handsome and rich, which makes her the envy of others.

She also thought about it and thought about recruiting two young people to keep Pei Dongqing company, so as to avoid bad gossip since she was the only unmarried one.

Besides, young and educated people are definitely better than uneducated ones. With so many people wanting to work in their workshops, they have to screen them and recruit those with outstanding abilities.

But we can't be as casual as before where anyone can come to work. We have to start setting up some thresholds.

After Ye's father called Ye Yaodong again, he immediately contacted Acai.

The valuable ones were carried out first and asked Ah Cai to weigh them. The rest would be dealt with after Ye Yaodong arrived. He had an idea in his mind which ones to take home and which ones to send to the factory.

Anyway, the valuable items that the factory doesn’t want will definitely be sold to Acai. These have been accumulated there over the past period of time and take up quite a bit of space.

Ah Cai originally thought that the cargo would be similar to what Ye Yaodong had when he came back last month. He didn't expect that he had already transported several trucks away, and there were still a steady stream of cargo being carried out from the fish warehouse on the deck. He was really heartbroken.

"Uncle... How much is left? Why are you still carrying it out? We have been weighing it for two or three hours."

"Scared?"

"Of course, there are too many goods. I am worried if I can't sell them all..."

Father Ye laughed and patted his shoulder, "Don't panic, these are going to be sent to the processing factory and wait for Dongzi to come and deal with them. Anyway, the processing factory will take them, so they won't be pressed on your side."

Ah Cai breathed a sigh of relief, "Why didn't you tell me earlier? I was staring at you and panicked. Do you really have that much? It looks like it's more than twice as much as what Ah Dong brought back last time."

"Twice as much? No?"

Father Ye looked back and saw that Dongzi had mentioned it a few times last month, so it was definitely not twice as much.

There will definitely be more.

After all, he had filled them up completely, and he was reluctant to leave even the groceries behind in the two nets, so he piled them on the deck before sailing back.

Dongzi decided to come back at the last minute because of weather reasons.

"You definitely didn't see it. There were 10 kilograms of squid in the freezer at the time, but he took them home to dry in the sun."

Ah Cai bared his teeth in surprise. "I was saying that during this period of time, there were people everywhere shouting and selling shredded squid, and everyone around was eating it. Fortunately, he has a conscience and didn't put all the pressure on me."

"Haha, he was afraid that you couldn't handle it, so he used his connections and ran around to get in touch with several factories. Some of the goods here also need to be sent to the factories."

"That's good."

When they were almost done weighing, Ye Yaodong arrived on his motorcycle, just in time to catch up with the tail end.

Father Ye quickly asked Acai to take a look at the list of goods he had just recorded to see if there was anything he wanted to keep. It was still not too late to cross it out.

Ye Yaodong had previously told his father what kind of fish the factory wanted and what they wanted to keep for their family, and his father must have known it well.

So he took a look and nodded.

"No problem, let's do it this way, you don't feel any pressure, right?"

"Of course I am under pressure. How can I not be under pressure? Your fresh-harvesting boat alone is enough to keep me busy. If you can keep the fruits back for drying, keep them. If you can send the fruits to the factory, send them to the factory."

"Then you just hold on a little longer. It will be fine once the factory is back on track in two months."

"What factory are you from? Do you have other factories?"

"That's right. My dad has been at sea for a while and I've been doing this at home."

Father Ye asked quickly, "Is it done?"

"It's almost done. The machines were just delivered yesterday. I heard the fish canning factory is almost finished as well."

Ah Cai's mouth opened wide. "You're also running a fish canning factory? So advanced? How much investment does it take?"

"I'm in partnership with someone. You go ahead and do your thing. I'll go check out the cargo on the ship first."
