Back to the small fishing village in 1982

Chapter 1512 Start of Construction

Ye Yaodong had just written half of the letter when he received a call saying that the seafood ship had arrived at the port. He hurriedly wrote the remaining few words, then folded it casually and put it in his bag.

He doesn't have time to mail it, so he'll just give it to a security guard, tell the address, and ask someone to mail it for him, otherwise it will take until tomorrow when he has time.

After coming out of the office, he did not go to the dock immediately, but first inspected the workshop and saw that everyone was doing well.

The people cleaning outside were also washing the squids in an orderly manner, and everything was in order.

He felt relieved and just told Manager Qi and Director Yan that he had to go out to pick up the goods and left the rest of the factory matters to them. He also told the security guard he brought with him to keep an eye on the matter.

"Let's go, Amin and Awen, it's time to go to work."

"Ok."

The two brothers Lin Guangming and Lin Guangwen followed him the whole afternoon. He sat in the office, and the two brothers sat at the door to bask in the sun, eating melon seeds and bragging with the two guards who were guarding the door.

He was going to the dock now, and the two brothers had to drive the truck with him to sort the goods and start today's shift.

Normally, the two brothers would drive a tractor and follow Ye Chengjiang and the others in the morning. After lunch, they could only stay in the base camp and be on standby at all times. Today, after lunch, they drove the truck over and waited.

After all, Ye Yaodong is staying here, and when the seafood boat comes back and needs a car, they can leave at any time without having to go back specifically to drive and waste time.

The site was already very crowded after so many rows of houses were built and three tractors were parked there.

Large trucks can occasionally be parked inside, but sometimes when hundreds of workers come back, they have to park outside. After all, so many people need space to go in and out.

It would be better to just drive here, there is a wide space for parking.

Originally, goods needed to be shipped here for processing every day. They had already planned that after the last batch of freight arrived, the truck would stop here and they would follow the tractor back.

They can also choose to live here, but they don’t have bedding, so they put it somewhere else and don’t want to go through the hassle of moving around.

Father Ye drank too much at noon and was helped back to sleep. He didn't wake up until the sun went down.

Then, looking at the dark sky, he sat up immediately in panic, got dressed hurriedly, went downstairs, asked a man a few questions, and then hurried to the dock.

Ye Yaodong was still weighing and delivering the goods at this time. For those with small quantities, he asked their two tractors to deliver the goods first. For those with large quantities, he would keep them for later and arrange for a truck to deliver them.

"Dongzi, why didn't you call me when the boat came back?"

"How do I know you didn't come? I didn't go home either. If I didn't see you when I came, I could only get busy. Hurry up, the goods on that tractor have been loaded. If you didn't come, I would have arranged for someone else to deliver it first."

"Right away, I'll deliver it. Where is it from?"

"Are you sober? Don't drive while you're drunk. Drunk driving is life-threatening."

"I woke up. I had slept all afternoon. I didn't wake up until it was dark. I was also startled awake."

"Then I'll leave this car to you."

Next, if we have a lot of goods to prepare, we will have to use a large truck to load them.

The rest of the people continued to weigh according to the quantity on the list, so that they could continue delivering the goods after their trucks came back.

Ye Yaodong was so busy that he forgot to tell his father to call his mother up.

After all the goods were delivered, the father and son went to the processing plant. Looking at the bustling scene, they tasted the food and chatted, telling his father about the incident.

"Ah? She's coming up again? Why do you want to call her up? She came last year, why do you have to ask her to come over every year? You're so busy that you don't even have time to take care of her."

"Isn't this a new processing plant that just opened? She's been waiting there for a long time. I heard that she has written down several pages of lists of things people have asked her to buy, and she's just waiting to come over before the New Year."

Father Ye scolded angrily, "She is the only one who has too many things to do. She wants to take care of everyone's affairs and take on everything. We might as well move the entire Demon City back to her so that she can share it."

Ye Yaodong simply ignored his father's complaints and said, "I'll ask someone to inquire about the scheduled ship tomorrow morning. When she arrives, I'll let her live in the processing plant. There are both male and female workers here, so it won't be inconvenient."

Father Ye's brows relaxed. "That's good. Don't let her live with us. Let her live here."

How much the middle-aged couple disliked each other. As soon as I asked his mother to live here, his father agreed.

"If we don't have time, she can just pick two older grandchildren to accompany her to the Magic City and carry her bags and things. There's also Aguo there, so he can take her shopping for a few days."

Father Ye's brows relaxed. "That's fine. We don't have to accompany her. It's easier. Just let her, Aguo and the others, accompany her. We are so busy every day that we don't have time to accompany her around."

"Well, when the time comes, just give her some money and arrange for two or three people to follow her wherever she wants to go."

"Forget about it this year. Don't ask her to come up next year. Why ask her to come? She will only get in the way. It's not long before the Chinese New Year. She will go back soon. If she needs anything, we can just buy it for her ourselves. Don't make her go back and forth."

"I was thinking that the reopening of the processing plant would have a different meaning, so I at least let her come over to take a look. It's not a big deal anyway, and she won't stay for long. As long as she doesn't mind the hassle, it's fine."

"It's not a big deal, she doesn't mind the hassle, the key is that she has too many things to do and is too long-winded."

"Got it. Then I won't call her next year."

It would be better to let his mother look after the house and let Aqing bring the children up to play.

It’s not that he is unfilial to his mother, but his father has said so, so when the time comes, let his mother just blame his father.

"You're already very busy and exhausted. You haven't slept for a few hours every day in the past few months, and you have to get up and take care of the processing plant, and run back and forth to Shanghai..."

"Now that I'm done with my work, I can have a good rest for a few days. I can just leave the work here to the people I hired."

"It's not that easy. We've added another processing plant, and it costs so much money. You'll have to keep an eye on it. And now it's November and December. The shipment volume is even greater as the year draws to a close. The factory has just started operating and has arranged 24-hour three-shift operation. You'll be busy then."

"We'll talk about it when the time comes. Anyway, I've hired so many people and have a dedicated financial department. Naturally, someone will do the accounting for me. I don't need to work so hard myself. I just need to come over every day and check the accounts."

Just do the same as with a fishing boat, let the second-in-command take control. This way he can be more relaxed. If he really does everything himself, then he won't need to sleep.

"Then decide when to come up. Tell me in advance so I can prepare."

"Preparing for what? Where are you going to hide the gold?"

"What did you say?"

"That means you should prepare to do the math first. How much should you pay and how much should you hide?"

"You talk too much." Father Ye glanced at him.

"Let's go. I looked around and there's nothing to worry about. Just let them take over. Go back to sleep."

"Come over earlier tomorrow. We just started work today, so there must be a lot of things to do. If you don't find any problems right now, there will definitely be a lot of things to do once we start working."

"Let's talk about it later. Let's talk about tomorrow's matter tomorrow. Let Director Yan and the others discuss and solve it themselves. That's the purpose of inviting them here."

Ye Yaodong and his father walked out while talking.

They came here to deliver the last batch of goods to the factory, and they stayed a little longer to see if there was anything else.

When the others had finished delivering the goods, he had already sent them back to rest.

"You said you were going to build rental housing in Shanghai. How is the construction going on that piece of land?"

"It's almost done. It's just in time to finish it before the New Year and settle the bill. Then we can rent it out in the spring of next year."

“How many houses were built?”

"We built two rows of two-story buildings, 40 in total, and the remaining space is just enough for people to move around, or to build a small stove in front of the door."

The two rows of buildings face each other, with a relatively wide road in the middle, which just happens to enclose his piece of land, and the land in the middle also belongs to him.

He would just deal with this piece of land first, as the rest were relatively remote, so there was no rush.

Take it step by step, first rent out the built house and recover some of the funds.

"If you build so many houses, will anyone be able to rent them? Pudong is full of farmland, it's barren. Who would rent a house here? They'd better go to the other side of the Huangpu River."

Although the building has been completed, Ye's father is still worried.

Ye Yaodong whispered, "You don't know this, right? I heard from my godfather that he is in a meeting now, and there will be new policies after the New Year. By then, Pudong will be developed on a large scale, and a large number of people will flock in."

Father Ye's eyes widened, "Really? So soon? You just bought it last year, and you're going to develop it after the New Year?"

"Yes, otherwise how could I buy it there? Could I ask Chenghe and the others to be included in the list? Even if I knew the news, it was a secret at that time and I couldn't tell anyone. I had to keep it secret. It's still a secret now."

Father Ye looked nervous and said carefully, "That can't be said. This is a big deal and can't be told to anyone. If it's leaked, it will definitely be bad for your godfather. If there's any political punishment, it will be troublesome."

"Yes, so, I could only buy it myself, and then let everyone buy it with me. Of course, I can't explain the reason. Now that the time is almost up, I can finally tell you about it, but you have to keep it secret and can't tell anyone. Even after the policy is released, you can't tell anyone. You will also be liquidated."

"Understood," Ye's father patted his chest and assured, "I will definitely keep this in my stomach, just like your other treasures."

Ye Yaodong covered his father's mouth with his hand, "Rotten in the stomach."

Father Ye nodded.

Then he said happily: "Then you can build the house in advance and rent it out to make some money. The surrounding area is just like our countryside, where no one has houses to rent."

"Ah."

I'm too sleepy. It's all over. I used to update 6000 words a day, but now it has become two pages of 7000 words. I have to give you another one during the day tomorrow. I'm really procrastinating more and more.
