Back to the small fishing village in 1982

Chapter 1422 Too Much Money and No Place to Put It
By the time Ye's father returned from his hometown village, satisfied, Ye Yaodong had already arranged everything.

His father said he wanted to keep an eye on him... to help him look after the land and stuff, but it was of no use at all.

He stayed in the provincial capital until Monday, the 13th day of the lunar calendar, and managed to complete the land registration before getting off work in the afternoon.

He heaved a sigh of relief after it was done, for he was afraid he would be late.

He came out on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year and has been here for five days till today, the thirteenth day. He has not had a single idle day and he is busy every day.

Yesterday, Sunday, he asked Lin Ji to take him to meet a truck driver, and they agreed to bring two people over to learn from him after a while.

During the few days he came, he made full use of every day.

Early Monday morning, he and his father took Ye Chenghai to the shipyard to report, helped him settle down, and gave him 50 yuan.

He was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling, and he also made big promises for his dear third uncle.

Ye Yaodong felt like he was going to choke on the pie he had painted.

Even Ye's father was jealous, saying that he would not get any share in the big deal.

After everything was done, he invited Lin Ji to have dinner and then went back with his father.

When we arrived at the dock, we met Ye Yaohai who was shouting at people to move goods.

He has been very busy these days and has no time to come and say hello to Ye Yaohai. Only now that he is about to leave does he have some time.

Ye Yaohai was also surprised to see him, "Hey, what brought the boss from Dongda here? Where did you make your fortune in the past two years? I haven't seen you for a long time."

"Dead in Zhou City."

"No wonder they didn't dock in the provincial capital. Did they make a fortune there? That's why they didn't come here?"

"It's okay, so-so."

"So-so? That means you really made a fortune."

Father Ye smiled and continued, "I went to the ancestral hall to burn incense the day before yesterday, but I didn't see you."

"Ah? Uncle went back to his hometown to burn incense at the ancestral temple?"

……

Ye's father exchanged a few words with him.

Ye Yaodong saw people coming and going in his shop moving goods and weighing them, and thought he must be very busy, so he didn't chat for long.

I just said hello and chatted for a few words, then left my home phone number and the phone number of the Chamber of Commerce in Zhou City, and told them to contact me when I had time, and then left.

It was already dark by now, and he had to hurry back to the city.

If we hurry, we should arrive in the city before dark tomorrow, and we can even go to my godfather's house and sit down to talk about the departure time.

Even after Ye's father got on the boat, he was still saying that this trip was too rushed and hurried, and he had no time to visit the provincial capital, now that he was already here.

"How about you stay and hang out? I'll go back?"

"What are you talking about? I just wanted to say that next time you come, you can stay a few more days."

"That's for sure. Your eldest grandson is here. You will have many opportunities to come here in the future."

"Ah Hai said you bought the land to build a big villa? And also to park your car?"

"Then why didn't Ah Hai tell you that I bought it to grow vegetables."

"what?"

"Hurry up and prepare to sail, and stop dreaming."

"You have money now, it would be nice to build a big villa..."

"Well, then I'll leave you a room so you'll have a place to stay whenever you come to the provincial capital."

Father Ye smiled widely, "We'll talk about it after you build it."

Ye Yaodong: "..."

"I'm going to drive the boat, you should go to sleep."

Father Ye didn't hear the hidden meaning and nodded, "Okay, I'll take over from you tomorrow morning after I wake up."

Ye Yaodong waited until his father left before he took a sip of strong tea and sailed the boat with peace of mind.

Instead of waiting for him to build a big villa in the city, it would be better to expect him to demolish his old home and build a villa for the two of them to live in in their old age.

Isn't it more prestigious? More comfortable? I can live here every day!

It's right under the eyes of the villagers, so the two old people don't have to go out to promote it.

I wouldn't even think about that.

The father and son sailed all night and arrived in the city at noon.

After lunch, Ye Yaodong went to make a phone call home.

During the days he was in the provincial capital, he was too busy to make phone calls, and Lin Xiuqing couldn't contact him either, and was worried about whether things were going well.

He made a phone call first, and then waited until he finished the accounts before taking a nap.

After waking up from his nap, near dusk, he went to the gate of the compound to wait for Director Chen.

The next day at noon, they sailed home again.

Ye Yaodong had calculated the timing perfectly and controlled it to perfection.

Before leaving, he called back in advance and told Lin Xiuqing not to prepare dinner and to ask the workers to drive the tractor to take them to Hongsheng Hotel in advance.

He had called the factory in advance and informed Hong Wenle that a private room facing the street and facing the window had been reserved for him.

At that time, you can eat dinner while waiting to watch the excitement of the Lantern Festival. You can avoid the crowds downstairs and you can see it more clearly from upstairs.

And he doesn't have to run back and forth. For example, when he gets home, he has to have dinner, which he has to eat in a hurry, and then he has to take the boat to town again.

We are in too much of a hurry, there is no need to do that. It would be better to just book a table in town, where the family can eat slowly, chat and drink slowly, and wait for the fun to happen, without having to worry about the children getting lost.

There is plenty of time, so there is no need to rush. I can't even eat properly because I'm always in a hurry.

Father Ye was impressed by his time management. Seeing them getting off the boat, he couldn't help but say, "Dongzi is getting better at planning now. He calculated the time just right. We arrived just in time for dinner."

"Of course we have to make arrangements properly. Otherwise, we have to go home to eat dinner at this time, and eating is like a battle. It would be easier to eat directly in town."

"It's easier. I don't know if your mother and the others have arrived yet."

"Why don't you go and take a look and find out?"

As they walked, Ye Yaodong introduced to Director Chen and his wife how lively last year's Lantern Festival was.

There are quite a few people on the street at this moment. Many small vendors have already come out to reserve seats in advance, and there are also many people shopping.

They had already arrived in the town, so they were not in a hurry. They could just walk and look around. After all, it was only a ten-minute walk to the hotel.

Lin Xiuqing was worried that there would be traffic jams if it was too late, so she asked the workers to drive a tractor to take them to the town at 4 o'clock. She locked the doors and windows of her house and arranged for several workers to help watch the door.

By the way, I also called on Mrs. Ye, Mrs. Ye, A Guang and Hui Mei to help look after the house and listen to what was going on.

Today she brought her whole family out, and the old lady even got on the tractor, asking it to run slower and more steadily.

This was also what Ye Yaodong instructed.

The old lady was reluctant to go out, and kept saying that she didn't want to watch the fun, wanted to go home to look after the house, and wanted to stay at home to guard it. She felt anxious when she left the door of her home.

Fortunately, the tractor was making a loud noise, so her muttering was not very clear. Lin Xiuqing and Ye's mother thought she was chanting, otherwise Ye's mother would have scolded her.

But once I got off the car and went to the hotel box, I could hear it clearly.

As soon as Ye Yaodong arrived, she greeted Director Chen and immediately complained to them.

"If you don't know, you would think she has hidden many treasures in her nest. She is reluctant to leave. She obviously wants to watch the fun, but she has to keep talking."

"If she really didn't want to come, who could force her to come? Who could carry her to the car? Now that she's here, why do you keep nagging her?"

After Ye's mother finished complaining, she said directly to the old lady: "Why don't you go back now and stop looking at it, so that you don't have to worry about your broken copper and rotten iron."

The old lady looked at so many people and glared at Ye's father, "Look at your wife... she's here, but she still told me to go back."

Father Ye: "..."

It's none of his business.

It wasn't him who called her back.

Ye Yaodong said with a smile: "Since we are here, let's eat first. My mother has a sharp tongue but a kind heart. Let me tell you, it's already this late and there are so many people on the street. It's not easy to drive back now."

Father Ye also asked everyone to sit down, "Let's order food first. This small private room Dongzi booked is quite good. It's close to the street. You can see the bottom from the window."

"I specifically asked Boss Hong to leave one with a good view and told him that we would be entertaining the leaders." Lin Xiuqing added.

Director Chen smiled and said, "What leader or not, we are all one of us. This place is in a good location, and we can see the sea next to it."

Ye Yaodong said: "The parade will also pass by the door later."

Ye Chenghu whispered, "Dad, you clearly promised me last year that you would let me ride in the float."

"Have it?"

"Yes!" Ye Chenghu raised his voice angrily, "I specifically told you about it before the New Year, and you said you would talk to me later, but after the New Year, when the weather cleared up, you disappeared."

"I'm busy, right? I've been out for several days and just got back now. How can I have the time to do this for you?"

"You promised, but you didn't keep your word."

"Next year, next year I'll let you ride on the float again." Ye Yaodong said perfunctorily.

"You'll have the time next year and next year."

"How did you know?"

Ye Chenghu was angry.

Director Chen smiled and said, "Next year, if your father doesn't let you ride on the float, I will let you do so."

Ye Chenghu was instantly happy. He immediately took the wine on the table and brought it to Director Chen to give it to him.

If it hadn't been opened, he would have fallen on it like a dog.

Ye's mother asked Ye Yaodong with concern: "Have you bought the land? Have you ordered a car? Has Ah Hai reported to work? Has he officially started working?"

"You asked so many questions, which one should I answer?"

Director Chen asked curiously, "Are you buying land again?"

"Yes, I went to the provincial capital a few days ago and confirmed my eligibility to purchase a large vehicle. Then I went around looking for land with my friends."

"Why did you buy so much? Didn't the city just buy several plots of land before the New Year?"

"Who would complain about having too much land? Besides, I don't have any land in the provincial capital, so I thought about buying two plots of land. I can use them to build warehouses when the time comes."

"You have a lot of things going on now? Dozens of ships, several factories and workshops, and several shops. Now you have bought so much land..."

"In order to make money, I have bought a lot of things. Now it would be best for me to buy land. At least I can use it to build a house and give myself a place to stay."

"Well, you have to be careful when buying land."

Ye Yaodong nodded, "That's it for now, I won't buy it this year."

I'll try buying somewhere else next year and see what the situation is. I definitely can't just keep the money like this.

It's rare that Aqing is also worried about having too much money at home and nowhere to put it.
