Chapter 1023 Returning halfway (7000 words)(2/3)
After all, I am still used to being poor.
In unexpected situations, sometimes the mind does not change immediately.
Poverty is a disease, and once you have money, it cannot be cured all at once.
"Who knows if it's a lie..."
"Oh, don't be nagging. Do you think I'm short of those hundreds or thousands of dollars now? It's easy to earn these hundreds or thousands of dollars, but once the things are sold, it's hard to buy them back."
If my son eats and drinks well in this life and grows in size, it would be better if he doesn't need it anymore and saves it to be worth a house in 40 years.
Father Ye shook his head and there was nothing he could do. The child was too old to be his father. If he didn’t want to sell it, forget it. If he kept it well in a rice vat and didn’t get eaten by insects, it wouldn’t be bad. What are you waiting for?
I'm really short of money now, so I'd better take it out.
Ye Yaodong sat in the cockpit without taking off his raincoat. Although it was thick and took up a lot of space, it was difficult for a person to squeeze in and even turn around. However, the windshield was covered with rainwater, so he couldn't see clearly.
He couldn't see around the fishing boat, so he had to step out from time to time to take a look.
After Ye's father went to bed, he concentrated on taking over the fishing boat. In this weather, he had to be very energetic.
Fortunately, it's already past 4 o'clock, and it's not long before dawn. After dawn, the light will be better, and there will be no danger at night.
The rain in spring was gentle and continuous, never heavy, but it never stopped.
It wasn't until the sky lit up little by little and the darkness gradually dispersed that the rain slowed down a bit, but the entire sea surface was still shrouded in fog and rain, appearing hazy and the visibility was extremely limited.
Because it rained all night, their fishing boat did not dare to sail toward the East China Sea, but kept working on the way back.
Yes, the fishing boats returned to work after the rain last night. They did not continue to the East China Sea, but they did not return directly. They just shortened the return distance and just kept wandering around the surrounding area.
Just in case it rains heavily, just rush back with all your strength and it won't take too much time.
This is also because it rained just after we came out, so I was unwilling to go back. When I came out, I had already gone hundreds of times to refuel and ice. I thought I could catch more, so I caught more to reduce losses.
He had made a profit because he had picked up a catfish that had survived the calamity, but the Harvest had not. Although the two old men were worried about their safety, they were reluctant to go back like this.
The drizzle is continuous and continuous.
After it was completely bright that day, Ye Yaodong also called to the two men who had just picked up the goods and were standing at the cabin door to take shelter from the rain to prepare to set up the net.
At this time, streaks of lightning began to appear in the sky again. The sky, which was originally bright because of the dawn, began to become dark again and became dense with clouds.
Two bolts of lightning flashed across the sky one after another. He raised his head and said with a frown, "I won't go out to the Internet cafe after I put the net away. The rain has just gotten lighter and lightning has come again. It's better to go back directly."
Chen Shi and another boatman nodded quickly. They had wanted to go back for a long time. When there was thunder and lightning at night, everyone had already retreated. However, the wind and waves were not strong at that time, and the thunder and lightning passed by in a flash.
It's gone.
Unexpectedly, I managed to survive till dawn and the lightning started again.
Ye Yaodong asked them to get ready to set up the net, and then he started to connect to the Harvest. If the rain lightened up this morning, he could still continue the operation. Now it started to thunder and lightning again, so it was better to go back as soon as possible.
It’s a gamble at sea, who knows when the spring thunder and rain will stop.
And he is also a little worried about the goods at home. It has been four or five days since he last docked. A small part should be barely dry, but most of them are still in a semi-dry or wet state. He doesn't know what will happen next.
If it rains, the nylon bag above the head will not hold up. Will it be attacked by wind and rain?
When the network machine was starting up the network, he also connected the connection with Fengshou, but the person connecting the line was an old friend of Uncle Pei. Uncle Pei stayed up all night and went to bed this morning. He changed his shift in the morning.
As a migrant worker, I had no choice but to wait until Uncle Pei woke up two or three hours late before asking for advice. Moreover, he said that the current network of the Harvest had only been offline for half an hour.
Ye Yaodong hesitated for a moment, then told him to follow the Dongsheng and return slowly, working while returning. When the time came for the Harvest to close the net, he would connect again and wake up Uncle Pei.
This can be regarded as a buffer waiting, and then depending on the situation, should they continue on their way or continue their work?
As for him, he was also determined not to continue lowering the net. After collecting the fishing net, he planned to drive the fishing boat back slowly.
It takes more than ten or twenty minutes to collect the fishing net before and after. If there is no need to lower the net, after the net is collected, it can be placed directly on the deck.
Ye Yaodong also walked out of the cabin and looked at a large net of fish poured out in the drizzle. The harvest was really good. It looked like it weighed four to five thousand kilograms.
Fresh fish were jumping all over the deck, and crabs were crawling around. Only some fish that had been crushed to death by the full package of seafood because they came out of the water did not move. The two people below also quickly took the basket and started sorting.
At this time, another bolt of lightning flashed across, splitting the dark clouds on the horizon into two, and the sky became bright for a moment before darkening again. Ye Yaodong stood on the deck and watched the lightning strike directly towards the sea, followed by a roar.
A loud voice also rang in my ears.
"Damn it, really, go back, go back..."
After all, he was also the second-in-command of the Harvest. After the bolt of lightning struck the sea and the sound of thunder, he quickly connected to the Harvest and directly directed the boatmen to collect the net.
But the other party was a little hesitant. Maybe the other boatman felt that he was too young and had a criminal record, so he looked down upon him and said he wanted to wake up Uncle Pei and tell him about the situation.
"Grass!"
After cursing, he opened the cockpit and walked out. He looked out from the helm and felt that the rain was getting a little heavier. But at the same time, he also discovered that there were white things floating on the sea in patches.
rippling with the wind.
Another bolt of lightning flashed across the sky and struck the sea in the distance. The flash of light allowed his 5.3 eyesight to see that the patches of white were fish with their bellies turned over.
That large area was electrocuted by lightning.
Water is conductive, and the conductivity of sea water can be imagined.
But sea water also has resistance, so even if thunder hits the sea, it will not harm the fish in the deep layers.
It’s just that the fish living a layer below the sea level are probably not so lucky, because they are close to the sea level, so they have to withstand very large currents, which also leads to their fate of being grilled fish.
"Made, my life is at stake."
He didn't even think about fishing for the cargo, but immediately returned to the cockpit to control the ship and prepare to speed back. However, before running away, he had to speed up to the Harvest and connect to the line again.
"Selinmu, go back quickly. There are constant thunder and lightning. Are you at risk? Leave quickly. Just say it was me who said it. If you don't..."
"I know, I'm already starting the network. I'll be able to speed up in 10 minutes. You can go first..."
It was Father Pei's voice that interrupted him.
Ye Yaodong immediately felt relieved and stopped approaching him. Anyway, as long as the connection was settled, he directly adjusted the direction and took the first step.
In ten minutes, in this foggy weather, at most the Harvest could be out of sight, and by then it would be able to catch up with the acceleration from behind.
When the boatmen saw the fishing boat speeding back at the warehouse door, they felt relieved and took off their raincoats and lay back down with confidence.
This trip was not in vain, it was worth it. He didn't feel bad at all and quickly sailed back without any worries.
But as the fishing boat drove longer, the closer they got to the offshore, the sky became brighter and brighter, and the rain gradually became lighter, until they reached the county town, the rain stopped completely, the sky was bright, and there was no more rain.
The area in the deep water area is gloomy and dark.
He also lamented the terrible weather in his heart, but two hours away from the sea, the weather was very different. He just didn't know if it was raining in the village.
Ye's father was sleeping in the cabin. He didn't even know that the ship had returned, and no one bothered to wake him up. It had already returned anyway, there was no work to do, and Ye Yaodong was sailing the ship.
It wasn't until the fishing boat was approaching the village dock that Father Ye was woken up and realized that it had returned.
"Isn't this a wonderful day? It's so bright, why did you come back?"
He had already walked to the cabin door and put on his raincoat. Looking at the bright sky, there was no rain at all, and he immediately took it off.
The boatman who was standing next to him came and said: "You are asleep and don't know at all that at dawn, the lightning on the sea is one after another, and the thunder is one after another, not to mention how scary it is."
It was obviously very early in the morning, but looking at that day, it felt like it was already evening, and it was so dark that I was scared to death, so I hurried back."
"Is this so? I didn't hear any movement in the cabin."
"My ears are filled with the sound of machines. I am half asleep and half awake. It is normal to not know. I heard a little thunder. I got up and took a look and realized how scary it was. I didn't sleep at all after that.
, wherever I could still sleep, I kept watching from the deck.
"On the way back, the sky gradually became brighter and brighter, and the rain became lighter and lighter. It didn't look like it had rained at all."
Father Ye nodded, "The weather wasn't very good last night. It was just that there wasn't much thunder and lightning after nightfall, so I felt relieved. I didn't expect it would start again just after dawn. It's better to come back early and feel at ease. The weather at sea is not good."
It’s hard to say.”
After saying that, he went to the fish warehouse to check the goods received, and found that they were not much different from before he went to bed, so he walked to the cockpit to find Ye Yaodong.
Ye Yaodong had already taken off his raincoat and threw it directly on the ground of the helm tower. When he saw his father coming, he quickly ordered him, "We're about to dock. Let the people below quickly move all the goods out in advance."
"Already moving."
Father Ye muttered again. The weather before going to bed and now when I woke up were only a few hours apart. It was only around 8 a.m. and less than 9 a.m. now.
"Fortunately, I connected to Uncle Pei several times in the morning and asked people to wake him up. Otherwise, when he wakes up now and sees that there is no wind or rain at all, he might blame me and come back directly."
"That shouldn't be the case."
"That's hard to say."
Seeing is believing, hearing is believing. If you haven't seen it with your own eyes, how can you completely believe it? Since he is not his son, there will always be knots in your heart. After all, if you lose money, you will think that he is young and has not even grown his hair. What is wrong with him?
Can make decisions.
Moreover, the Dongsheng also made money and caught a hairy catfish. If there is no comparison, there will be no harm.
"Stop guessing. Anyway, we know that the weather outside is not good. Thunderstorms and lightning are always going on. It's better to come back early. At night, we can see the lightning striking directly to the sea, hitting big fish, and it's not far away from us. It's not safe to think about it."
,Fortunately, I came back early."
"You haven't seen it yet. At dawn this morning, the lightning struck the sea one after another. The fish on the sea floated in large numbers. I also saw amazing lightning and thunder. It was dark again in the evening.
