Back to the small fishing village in 1982

Chapter 1358 has arrived (more)
The next morning, Ye Yaodong got up while it was still dark. This time, he had nothing to take back except a safe, so he could just carry it with him.

Just put the things you bring here for the workers to use, and he will bring new ones next time he comes up.

Last night, I paid them one month's salary in advance, along with some subsidies.

The monthly meal expenses for each person is 10 yuan, which is 4 yuan for four people. It was June 40st, so he directly gave them a three-month subsidy of 6 yuan. The rent problem had already been solved, so they had food and accommodation included.

With the current consumption level of a few cents, if you buy groceries and cook for yourself, just for the food of four people, 4 yuan a month will be enough.

When they first moved in, he also purchased a batch of daily necessities, and when they came up, they also brought some dry goods, which could last for a long time.

He stood by the road holding the safe and waited for a while, then bought some breakfast and ate while waiting. After a while, he saw a large truck driving over and stopped in front of him.

"How long have you been waiting?"

The layman got out from the passenger seat, opened the back half of the door for him, and pulled up the awning at the same time.

"Just wait a moment, you haven't even finished your breakfast yet, I bought some extra, have you eaten yet? I'm giving it to you to take on the road."

"Okay, the car is full of canned fish in wooden boxes. You will be alone on the way back. I have reserved space for only one person. The road will be bumpy and it may hurt if you bump into something. Be careful."

"It's okay, it's good to be able to take a ride."

"Okay, let's get going right away. Putting down the awning can block out the sun and give us some sleep."

"Ah."

It takes a god to fall asleep on such a shaking road. Is there any soft cushion under the butt to reduce the shock? The butt and back are directly against the car and the wall. If the road is bumpy, the person will be shaken to the sky.

He couldn't eat anymore before he finished the breakfast in his hand. He felt uncomfortable in his stomach.

The food he had just eaten kept vibrating inside his stomach wall. As soon as he got out of the city, he lifted the sunshade and vomited it out with a loud "wow".

This breakfast was wasted.

Ye Yaodong had no choice but to close his eyes and rest, waiting to arrive at the next stop at noon before he could rest.

For ordinary people, this trip was a business trip, not a private job. The cargo had to be transported to the destination, so there was little rest along the way.

He originally thought that he would unload the goods once or twice in a town along the way, but he did not expect that he would never stop.

When the car stopped at night, he was drowsy and thought he was going to find a guesthouse to stay in. Unexpectedly, the layman told him directly that they had arrived at his hometown.

His eyes widened in surprise, "Are we there yet?"

He looked around. This was the entrance to his factory. The shops around the wholesale market not far away were brightly lit, with people coming and going, and the horns of passing cars of all sizes honking.

Just when he was about to fall asleep, he thought, where are we and why is it so noisy? It was just that the bumpy ride had left him with no energy.

"arrive."

"We're here already? I thought we'd have to wait until tomorrow to get here, how come it's so fast? The mountain road is winding, how come we're here so fast?"

"I know the road well. We didn't stop and start, and we didn't encounter any accidents. It wasn't raining either, so of course we're going fast. If you can't bear to get off, why don't you follow me to the next stop?"

Ye Yaodong jumped down directly, "Forget it, my stomach is about to be thrown out."

"It's quite painful to sit in the back."

He checked the time and it was past 12 o'clock. "It's already this late. Just park your car at my factory. I'll treat you to a midnight snack. You can stay here for the night and have a good sleep. You can leave tomorrow morning. It's not safe to drive in the middle of the night."

The layman hesitated for a second before agreeing, "Okay, I'm tired after driving all day, so I'll sleep here for a night and we'll set off again tomorrow morning."

"Ah."

Ye Yaodong led them to knock on the door.

After a while, someone came to open the door. It was his uncle.

"Hey, Dongzi, why are you here so late? Didn't you say you were going on a long journey?"

"I just came back. Open the other side of the iron gate as well. The truck is going to drive in."

"Ok."

Ye Yaodong arranged for the truck to park in the yard and then arranged a room for them.

It’s hot now, so a thin quilt is enough and it saves trouble.

"Thank you very much."

"No need to thank me. We are close friends. I take your car every time I go back and forth. You just stay at my place for one night. What's the big deal? At home, you rely on your parents. When you go out, you rely on your friends. Whenever you pass through the city in the future, just come to my place for food and lodging. I'll cover everything."

The layman smiled and said, "Sure, that's very righteous."

"This is called liver and gallbladder! Let's go, we are tired after a day of hard work, let's go have a midnight snack and go to bed early tonight."

"I'm going to your childhood friend's shop again."

"Yes, let's go settle the bill for him. Today is the 1st, and the bill for last month's meal hasn't been settled yet."

"That's quite good of you. You just need to sign for the meal."

"Well, we grew up together wearing the same pair of pants. It was me who encouraged him to open a restaurant. He made a lot of money and he even said he would treat me to meals for the rest of my life..."

Ye Yaodong proudly showed off his friends, saying that good friends can make one proud.

It's a pity that the fat guy is not in the city. He is basically running back and forth now. I could have taken him out for a midnight snack together and introduced him to each other.

After all, it was very late at this time, and they were tired after a day of running around. Moreover, they had to get up early to drive tomorrow, so they didn't drink much. They just drank two bottles of beer each, ate something, and then rested.

Ye Yaodong and others returned to their room, lay down in a big letter shape, and then cried out in pain.

"My back, my butt... ouch... I'm dying..."

When we went up, we would drive for a few hours and then stop in a town to sell goods, which could be considered a break.

For the rest of the journey, they also put some quilts under their buttocks, which at least provided some shock absorption.

The ride back today was really bumpy, with almost no stops. It took about 20 hours in total, which really took his life.

My butt was numb from the shock and I had to stand up slowly several times.

But he couldn't stand steadily on the bumpy road, so he could only slow down for a moment and then continue to sit down and bump around.

"Oh my god, I'm finally back. It's really not easy to travel far these days..."

He muttered as he clenched his empty fists and pounded his back, trying to find a lazy wooden hammer to pound his back with but there was nowhere to find one.

Just think about it, why does every household have this thing?

If you are tired from working in the fields, you can just knock on the door and ask for help from others.

Ye Yaodong returned to his territory, and he relaxed completely. He rolled over for a while and fell asleep immediately.

He got up at 4 o'clock and traveled until now. He was exhausted, tired and sleepy. He slept until 12 noon the next day.

Looking at the dazzling sunlight outside, he sat up suddenly and took out his watch to look at it.

"Oh no, I overslept."

He put on his clothes, scratched his messy hair, walked out and looked down at the open space in the yard. There was no sign of the cart. It had indeed left.

"Aunt, what time did the truck leave this morning?"

"They left at 5 o'clock. I told them I would cook porridge for them, but they couldn't wait and said they would just go out and buy breakfast."

"Oh, then just leave. If they come back next time, you can invite them to have a meal or let them stay overnight."

"Oh, okay, you two have such a good relationship?"

"It's OK. It's a give and take. After all, he has helped me before, so I have to give him some favors when I'm out."

"That's right. When you're out and about, you can only rely on the friends you know for help."

"Well, I'll just have a meal and then go back."

"When your father-in-law heard that you were back this morning, he came over, but you were still sleeping, so I didn't call you. Later I heard that he had called home and asked if you wanted to go over and make a phone call."

"Okay, wash up and eat first."

"Okay, I'll get you some food."

While eating, Ye Yaodong asked his aunt about the recent situation of the workshop, and asked Huang Mei to show him the account book.

At this time, Wang Guangliang came over, somewhat hesitant.

He just happened to see it after reading the account book.

"What's the matter?"

"Brother Dong..."

He raised an eyebrow, waiting for the rest.

Wang Guangliang hesitated for another three seconds before saying, "Brother Dong, I want to buy a tractor and do it myself."

Ye Yaodong was surprised. "Buy a tractor and do it yourself? For what? Transportation?"

"Now the factory here is on track. We just need to wait for the fresh-food ship to dock the next day, drive a tractor over to pick up the goods, and then deliver the goods to other factories. It doesn't seem to require so many people, after all, there are workers on the ship..."

"Not really. Fish sauce is filtered out here every day, and you have to take turns to bottle it 24 hours a day. I don't think there are enough idle people, and you have to go to the village here to hire people."

He scratched his head. "Actually, I want to buy a tractor, buy goods from you, and then drive to the surrounding towns to sell them. I think I can earn a little more money, which is better than taking a salary."

Ye Yaodong gave him a thumbs up and said, "That's a good idea. I support you."

He was pleasantly surprised. "Really? Do you really support me? You won't be angry if I quit and go out on my own?"

"Why should I be angry? You want to start your own business? This is a good idea. It's great. You have courage. It's not easy to give up a stable job with a fixed salary."

"That's good. Thank you, Brother Dong. I was worried that you would be angry, so I hesitated for several months and didn't dare to say it."

"What's the big deal? If you have any ideas, just speak them out and do it boldly. Can I stop you from getting rich?"

"Ha ha……"

"Can you save enough money to buy a tractor?"

"Enough, enough. I've saved for two and a half years. Although I give half of my salary to my family every month, I still have half left. I can ask my parents for some more. Huang Mei also said that she would give me all her saved salary."

"Okay, good girl, when you get married, invite me to the wedding and I'll give you a big red envelope."

Both of them blushed and felt a little embarrassed.

Wang Guangliang bowed deeply to him.

"Of course, there will be."

"Well, do you want to come back with me later when I go back?"

"Yes, I just wanted to go back with you, so I mentioned it."

"it is good."
