Chapter 922: Collect money on the first day (7200 words of wish plus more compensation)(2/3)
The combined cargo of his two ships was quite a lot, more than what his eldest and second brother had just weighed. They sold for 182 yuan and 15 cents. Aguang took away 9 yuan and 1 cents, leaving him with 173 yuan.
5 points.
That's great, it's only the morning of the first day.
He put the money in his pocket and put it away, then smiled and thanked Uncle Yang.
Aguang also thanked them again and again and asked them to come back in the afternoon, and he would call in advance then.
Uncle Yang was very happy and agreed directly. Being able to receive so many goods in one trip was a win-win situation for him. Although it is a bit troublesome to pay cash, it is good to receive the goods. After all, all jellyfish are now
The agency is taking over, and it's a new factory.
After sending the people away, Ye Yaodong was also in a hurry to get on the boat. It was almost lunch time. Although he and his father were full, the other boatmen hadn't eaten yet.
They had to quickly sail back to the island to have a quick lunch and then start fishing immediately.
"Aguang, let's go first. You and Brother Chen are waiting at the pier. Don't run around. If you have anything to do, go to the Public Security Bureau to find Comrade Yang Guoan. If he is not here, he has told other police officers."
"I know, don't worry, even a big guy like me won't be lost, and the police comrades will also look after me."
They also said this to other people on the dock. After all, they had just sold out and made a lot of money. Everyone saw it, so there was no guarantee that there would be no one with ulterior motives.
Moreover, their accents are not local. Although they are both Minnan dialects, their intonations are very different, but they can still communicate.
"Remember to buy me some wheat cakes around two or three in the afternoon. We will dock again around that time."
"knew."
"Then my father and I will leave first."
"Go ahead, go ahead."
Father Ye was worried and told him not to run around. He also went to the police station to wait when he had nothing to do. Father Ye was also worried that he would be robbed or extorted due to the money in his pocket.
After Aguang and others left, he and Chen Jianian went to the corner to share the money. He also took about 50 yuan from the commission for the car just now, which was a huge sum. This car directly earned more than half a month's salary of the boatman.
Those of them who go out to fish for jellyfish earn higher wages than the boatmen at home. This trip is calculated as 90 yuan a month.
After all, the risk is greater, and if it rains or there is an accident, you will be in the province without doing anything, and you will not be as comfortable as at home.
Next, there will probably be two more trips, and the number may not be as large as this morning. After all, this morning they encountered a large group of floating jellyfish.
Aguang and Chen Jiannian happily split the bill, each with 25 yuan. They were both in a good mood. Chen Jiannian was not unhappy at the beginning. They were both happy to have the money.
Chen Jianian thought to himself that what he gave out was not a lot, so it was still a win-win situation. Although the profit was reduced, the problem of receiving the goods was also solved, and it was one less troublesome thing.
And Aguang has already divided 25 yuan from this wave, thinking that he can divide 80 yuan today, two to three thousand yuan after one month of work, and five or six thousand yuan after two months of work!
Proper blood profit!
In addition, he also owns a big boat and gets a share of the two boats, and he becomes rich~
He is also very contented, and is not greedy to eat them all. He also has to give others a way to survive, otherwise the rabbit will bite people when it is in a hurry. Anyway, he will do this this year, and next year he will do something big to earn more.
That is, when will his father's ship arrive?
Judging from Cai Fan's expression, he instantly became anxious again, "Brother Chen, I'm going to make a call first. Is it okay for you to be here alone?"
"Let's go together. I have company. I also have to make a phone call to make sure I'm safe. A lot of people just rushed to the post and telecommunications office. There's no time to call home. I can only call the factory first to get their goods."
The problem has been arranged.”
"Then let's go together."
The two of them were walking and chatting. The atmosphere was harmonious and their relationship seemed to be very harmonious. At least they maintained face.
After Ye Yaodong got on the boat, he asked his father to drive the boat quickly. They were in a hurry, so he raised his hand and asked Brother Aseng to drive the boat and follow them.
While sailing, he discussed with his father that they would go to the island to have a meal, and they were going to go straight to the trench, and then each of them would drive a boat and take command.
The father and son have been thinking about that trench for a long time.
Fortunately, his eldest cousin was also smart and left him to watch over the temporary camp. He didn't just sit around. When the time came, he cooked rice in advance, steamed dried fish, and cooked pickle soup with potatoes.
A big pot.
As soon as they arrived at the island, they had food to eat immediately. However, most of the others who had left earlier had already disappeared. They had probably finished their meals and went to the sea to catch jellyfish without stopping.
While they were eating, people in the open space next to them also finished eating and got on the boat one after another and ran away. Only one person was left on each boat to watch on the island. After all, their household items and jellyfish blood were still drying on the island.
superior.
Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua also knew what they were thinking. They didn't leave even after eating. They just waited there and planned to go together. In fact, they were too impressed by last year.
After the meal, the father and son left their elder cousin behind as usual. They each drove a boat and took the others to fish.
The eldest cousin was also very happy that Ye Yaodong left him to visit his home, which showed that he trusted him the most.
On the sea all the way to the trench, you can see floating trawlers from time to time. Small wooden boats fish on the coast around the village. Only trawlers can drive farther out, which also avoids competition between large and small fishing boats, and jellyfish are floating far and near.
The villages in this area make enough money every year by fishing jellyfish in small boats, so they saw many more small wooden boats this year than last year.
They drove all the way, fishing all the way, and were not in a hurry. When they saw jellyfish, they slowed down and approached. This year has just begun, and according to them, the number is not many.
Fortunately, where they were going, they only saw a few trawlers sporadically.
When they got farther and farther and approached the trench, the surrounding fishing boats were no longer visible, and there were more jellyfish floating on the sea, but they were all inside the bend.
This trench is also located on the edge of an island. It is relatively remote and far away from the normal shore. Moreover, the shape of this island is somewhat similar to a long U-shape. Last year, if they had not followed a group of sea turtles to fish for jellyfish, they would have
Can't find it here either.
The four fathers and sons each drove a boat, and when they saw the front, they all stopped at the same time, and then shouted to each other: "Dongzi, it looks like there are not many..."
"It's nothing compared to last year. It seems to be almost the same as in the morning..."
"Dad, do you want to get closer? What did Dongzi say?"
"Maybe the flood season has just begun, and the sun is at its strongest at noon, so not all jellyfish are floating on the water, so the number looks very small."
Father Ye also shouted: "As little as possible, that's probably why we started fishing. Anyway, just fish it here. There will be more than what's scattered outside. At least it's concentrated here, and it'll be enough for us to catch today."
"
"Well, come back and take a look tomorrow. There should be more and more of them day by day."
"Then there's no need to squeeze in. Just fish nearby a little bit slowly. It's enough for our four boats..."
The boatmen on the boat did not stand and watch when they stopped the boat. There were scattered jellyfish floating around. They all stretched out their bamboo poles to poke them, and used hand nets to catch those who were closer.
Ye Yaodong and the others also started working immediately. He divided the pieces quickly, so he let others do the work while he sat and divided it alone.
Zeng Weimin also stayed on his boat, watching them catch jellyfish along the way, and asked curious questions.
"How did you discover this location? The purpose is so clear, you ran straight here as soon as you left the island."
Ye Yaodong worked hard and replied, "I discovered it last year, so I went straight here after dinner."
"How much can your house sell for in a day..."
"Now at the beginning, a boat can be sold for about one or two hundred."
"so much?"
"It's not much. The cost of fuel is very high in a day. This is not a small wooden boat. I have so many workers on the boat, and it costs more than ten yuan a day."
"That's true, you're not local yet, and it's expensive to come here to fish..."
"Yes, if you can't make more money, who would take the risk and come here..."
Ye Yaodong started chatting with him as they parted ways.
Their four boats have been here since noon and have not moved anywhere. Of course, the location here is remote and there are no trawlers approaching here. Except for the fact that the sun is too strong, it looks very comfortable and relaxing.
When it was almost 3 o'clock in the afternoon, Father Ye saw that it was almost time, so he planned to ask them to stop for a while and sell at the shore.
"Dad, it's a bit late at this time. It's too late to come out in the afternoon. Let's not drag a net to the island and divide it and sell it. Otherwise, we won't be able to catch up with the next trip. I will move all the goods on my ship to your ship. You can
After sailing to the shore and selling it and then coming back, I will continue fishing here, which is more efficient."
"That's okay. Then let your eldest and second brothers leave a boat here."
"Um."
Anyway, we were just selling goods and there was no need to sail the boats back. However, in order to prevent accidents, the boatmen still followed the fishing boats back to the port as usual, leaving everyone behind.
Ye Yaodong spent the entire afternoon cutting and killing jellyfish, and even those who were skilled at it were numb. Occasionally, when he saw that the number was not large, he would ask them to replace it.
Even if Ye's father and Ye Yaopeng's two boats left as quickly as possible, two hours would have passed by the time they came back.
Fortunately, they each have two boats in partnership. One boat is used for fishing and the other boat is sailed back to sell, so there will not be much delay.
When Father Ye came back, he not only brought back a few wheat cakes, but he also brought good news. The Harvest was back at noon, and he was going to rest for half a day and set off at around 4 o'clock tomorrow morning.
Ye Yaodong immediately climbed over after hearing this, and then sent the driver of his boat to fish first. He wanted to chat with his father for a while.
"Aguang called back this afternoon and heard about it?"
"Yes, when he called back at noon, his in-laws came back just in time. They were still eating at home, so they went to answer the phone. He told me just now when I was selling goods at the beach."
"That's fine. We'll set off at 4 a.m. tomorrow morning. If everything goes well, we should be able to arrive around tomorrow evening."
"Yes, they have been there long enough this time."
