Back to the small fishing village in 1982

Chapter 1463 Meeting

After they came out of the shipyard, they walked all the way to the ferry terminal, which was nearby and not far away, but it was a little exposed to the sun.

But they were talking animatedly as they walked, all chatting about what they had seen and heard in the shipyard and about shipbuilding, so it wasn't that hard to walk through, and they arrived in just a few steps.

When they arrived at the dock and on the boat, they were all talking in gibberish and the people around them looked at them with disgust.

They all pretended not to hear. Anyway, the locals couldn't understand what they said, and they couldn't understand what the locals said either. They all spoke their own words.

"It's a bit expensive to build a boat, but it's very cheap to take the boat. It's only 5 cents per person."

"It's a good deal, but if you bring a bicycle or a cart, you have to buy another ticket."

“That’s a good deal.”

When they came over in the morning, they saw quite a few baskets on the boat, some of which were carrying cages for chickens and ducks. The smell of livestock was very strong, but this time at noon, there were fewer baskets.

After taking a boat trip, they felt firsthand the difference between Pudong and Puxi. The two areas divided by a river are like two completely different worlds.

Puxi has developed maturely, while Pudong is still a relatively backward area. Most of the area is farmland, factories and low-rise residential areas, with relatively simple infrastructure, narrow roads and a lack of modern commercial and residential areas.

The country is really awesome. With one order, Pudong has undergone tremendous changes.

Ye Yaodong had a camera with him and took some photos of the surrounding area as he walked around.

When he just entered the shipyard, he felt it was inappropriate for him to carry the camera, so he threw the camera to Ye Chengjiang. This silly boy was so happy that he is still fiddling with it, but he doesn't dare to move.

While everyone was talking excitedly and he had some free time, I came over and asked him to teach.

He gave him some guidance without any objection, and he could help take photos for him later.

The sun was too strong at noon, so after arriving at the dock they went straight to eat and then returned to the guesthouse to rest.

They planned to wait until the sun was about to set before going to the East China Sea Shipyard. After all, it was nearby and there was not much to do in half a day. It was a good opportunity to take a look at the shipyard, as he had never been there before.

If it is suitable, he can place an order at that time. If the ships can be delivered at about the same time, he will almost have his own ocean-going fleet.

The Donghai Shipyard naturally cannot be compared with the Jiangnan Shipyard, but they accept orders.

We stayed in the guesthouse for two or three days. Similarly, we went to the East China Shipyard for two or three days to discuss and negotiate, but they still couldn't make up their mind to make a reservation.

The main reason is that they are short of money. The ship was just delivered last year. They made a profit last year and a profit this year, but they don’t have 10 yuan in total. How can they dare to order a ship worth 30 yuan?

A Guang might have some, but it might take both A Zheng and Xiao Xiao together to get 10 yuan.

It is impossible for them to empty their family savings and go all in without any consequences. It is not easy to earn so much money.

The premise of being willing to spend a lot of money is that you still have some money left on hand. Taking out part of your savings to build a family business is a healthy way of doing things, rather than just going all in.

After all, no one has Ye Yaodong's foresight. He always thinks about making more money before buying.

They are indeed making a lot of money now, and Ye Yaodong thinks that there is no need for them to put all their money on the fishing boat.

It would be better to go around and look around in a couple of days, and use a few tens of thousands of dollars to buy land and a house. There is no need to rush to make a decision now, and it is better to make a decision after understanding the situation.

He himself did not place an order and was also waiting and watching. After all, he had just arrived and there was no need to be in such a hurry. He had just received another batch from the shipyard, so there was really no need to be in such a hurry now. He could wait and see how to allocate the remaining money later.

He collected everyone's balance to pay the deposit, but did not touch his own money, which was probably a little over 40 yuan.

This amount of money is enough for anything.

They had just finished dinner and were sitting together in the lobby of the guesthouse, discussing what to do tomorrow. They had already spent three days at the shipyard.

The lobby of the guesthouse has served as their temporary meeting place these days.

"You guys don't buy anything, but you keep going. Isn't this a waste of time?" said the fat man depressedly.

He was the person who had the least connection with the fishing boat and didn't care at all. He felt that he had been wasting his time these past few days by playing with fools.

Lin Jishang also followed them to and from the shipyard these days and asked a lot of details.

"Are you sure you don't want to buy it?"

He asked this, but his eyes were looking at Ye Yaodong. After all, Ye Yaodong is now also a boat-buying maniac.

"I plan to go shopping around these few days, and then I'll make arrangements and confirm it. I'm not in a hurry to make a reservation right now."

"Yes, you still have six ships in production, and the shipyard over there is dedicated to serving you."

"Well, I just happened to run into it."

Lin Ji asked other people again, and they all shook their heads, saying that they did not have that much financial resources and could only order an order of 20 meters at most.

Although Ye Yaodong suggested that they do it all at once, if they really wanted to, it would be a good idea to buy another one that is more than 20 meters long, which would allow them to quickly accumulate wealth for a few more years.

"Since you guys aren't buying, I'll place an order tomorrow."

"How many do you want to order?"

"I plan to order three cargo ships that are over 40 meters long and have a displacement of about 500 tons."

Everyone was surprised.

Ye Yaodong cursed, "Damn it, if you place so many orders at once, how can the shipyard have extra time to arrange other orders? Won't our orders be placed all the way to the Pacific Ocean?"

"That's why I asked you if you would like to place an order. It won't affect you if you order different fishing boats. They are divided into groups, and different shipyards are responsible for different fishing boats, so it won't affect you."

Ah Zheng looked at him enviously, "You are so rich."

"You are also very rich. Compared with other villagers or other people of your age, you are also people they look up to."

Everyone likes to hear this and feels relieved.

Ye Yaodong said, "Let's go to Puxi tomorrow to see how lively and prosperous it is. We should walk around the streets we should visit and buy things we should buy. Who knows when we will go back and whether we will go to such a prosperous area again."

"Okay, let's go to Puxi tomorrow."

"You're not going to Pudong anymore? It's all run-down and there's nothing good to do there."

"I heard from the locals that they would rather have a bed in Puxi than an apartment in Pudong. Pudong is really despised even by the locals. I guess everyone is trying their best to squeeze into Puxi."

"That's normal. Who wouldn't want to go to a prosperous area? Moreover, we are from Shanghai, and even people from the countryside are trying our best to squeeze into the city just for a city hukou."

Ye Yaodong listened to their lively conversation and directly retorted, "Are you stupid? You should go to Pudong."

"What?"

"Puxi can't accommodate the population because it's too populous, and Pudong is still pushing people there. Shouldn't we consider developing Pudong? If it's developed a little, won't the value of land and houses go up?"

He doesn't understand any big principles, this is just his simple understanding.

As someone who has been through it, he only knows the future situation, but he doesn't know exactly why it will be like this. He hasn't attended many classes at the Party School, so he can only understand it simply on his own.

"Dongzi, you figured this out yourself, right?"

"Yes, I am optimistic about it anyway. After all, the two cities are separated by a river, so the difference cannot be too big. Pudong is all farmland and shabby houses, while Puxi is all high-rise buildings. It's too polarized."

"We haven't been into the city to take a look. We've been in this area for the past two days. Why don't we check it out tomorrow?"

"Okay, that's what I was thinking. Let's go experience the prosperity and bustle of Puxi first, buy all the local specialties, and see what's new here."

"Then let's settle it first."

Ye Yaodong put his hands together and clapped his hands, "Okay, let's adjourn the meeting."

Lin Ji said, "I will place the order early tomorrow. You can stay later and then take the bus together."

"no problem."

When I got back to the house, my two nephews came over and asked, "Uncle San, you're not planning to buy land and a house in Pudong, are you?"

"I have some ideas, let's see first."

"Uncle San, why don't you just buy a boat? Why do you want to buy this land? We are not here."

"But we're not far away. Once I book two boats and buy a house and a piece of land, I can come and stay for a few days. I can also bring my whole family over to stay. Just think about it, isn't it awesome for the whole family to come to Shanghai to play?"

The two couldn't help but feel a little yearning.

"Cattle."

"Of course it's awesome. We come here for a walk and can brag about it for half a year when we return to the village. If we buy a house here and bring our whole family to live here, we'll be amazing and become great people."

"Aren't you afraid of not coming for too long..."

"When I buy a house, I will rent it out. Naturally, there will be tenants to help me look after the house. If there is a dispute, the tenants can hold on for a while and notify me. Anyway, I will come here every month to collect the rent and check on the progress of the shipyard. Isn't that perfect? ​​It only takes a few hours to get here by boat anyway?"

"Uncle San, why do I think you have already planned it, rather than just having this idea?"

Ye Yaodong rolled his eyes at them and didn't explain.

If he didn't have a plan, would he have made this trip?

Of course I have a plan when I come out, and I can only go back if I gain something.

"I think there must be a reason why Third Uncle is so powerful."

Children can be taught.

"You are right. You can always listen to me, okay?" Ye Yaodong patted Ye Chengjiang's shoulder while speaking.

"I always listen to you."

Ye Chenghe was unwilling to fall behind, "Uncle San, I will listen to you too."

"Well, my love for you is not in vain. You have to listen to me more from now on."

The two nodded like garlic.

"Uncle San, I will listen to whatever you say in this life." Ye Chenghe laughed.

"Then go eat two pounds of shit first."

Ye Chengjiang laughed unceremoniously.

Ye Chenghe: "I take back what I just said. I will only listen if it makes sense."

I was so tired. I was sitting in the car as soon as I opened my eyes today, and didn't get home until 9 o'clock in the evening. I was exhausted and my back hurts so much.

Although I type with my voice, I don't have tendonitis, but I don't know when it started, but my back and waist can't stand sitting for long periods of time. I have some aftereffects of typing.

It's been really cold in Hangzhou these two days. My hands and feet are cold after I came back. I'm so cold that I can't stand it. I'm shivering even in the quilt. I'll take a shower and go to sleep, and get up early tomorrow to write.
