Back To the Small Fishing Village In 1982

Chapter 76: want to have a boat of my own

  Chapter 76 Want to have a boat of my own

  Estimated that an hour had passed before the three of Lin Jishang left, and Ye Mu and the others entered the room impatiently.

   "What do you mean? Are you really here to buy the foundation of our house?"

  Father Ye was just taking a sip of the hookah, and nodded, "I don't know where they found the master, who said that our land has good feng shui and will prosper him. He said that his luck has been bad for the past two years, and he wants to change his luck."

   "He is not from our village, why did he buy it here?"

   "He said he wanted to build a small house. Occasionally, when he came back from sea, he couldn't go to the county seat in time, so he wanted to sail the boat to our pier and rest here."

   "Is this person rich?"

   "I heard that there is a big ship, but I don't know much about the others."

Ye Yaodong leaned against the wall and said lazily: "This man is dishonest. I reckon he is smuggling on the high seas. He dare not stop at the big port. The small pier in our village is just convenient for them to sneak unloading at night. They can't unload at night." Looking for a place to spend the night?"

   "The location of this land is not far from the beach, and there are no residents around, isn't it just right? There may be some reason why they think Feng Shui is good!"

  In his previous life, he heard rumors that Lin Jishang's family made their fortune by smuggling, but he didn't know what they were smuggling on the high seas.

  In their rural areas, the villagers are more concerned than less. Even if they know something, they talk about it in private, and they don't report it on purpose.

  The people in the room gasped when they heard the words. It is illegal to smuggle in the high seas. Father Ye was also very surprised, "How do you know?"

   "Guess, he was a bit secretive when he spoke earlier, hey, who cares, our family didn't lose money anyway, and made a fortune. Just don't go out and talk nonsense."

   "What are you talking about? How did you earn a boat?" Ye Mu felt like a cat's claws in her heart, but no one took the initiative to say it.

  Others were also a little impatient, "Yeah, what did you say?"

Father Ye smiled and said: "The house site we are building is given to Zhou Yechi, the cousin of Lin Jishang. During this period of time, the wages and food expenses of hiring people will belong to him. Let's choose another piece of land in the village. He also paid for the base, and by the way, he compensated us with a 6-meter wooden boat."

  Everyone's eyes lit up, isn't this equivalent to getting a boat for nothing?

   "If you don't give him some benefits, why should we give him the homestead we are building?" Ye Yaodong said.

   "Father, since we sold the land to him, we should be paid for our work, right?" Mrs. Ye couldn't help asking.

   "Yes, you all work together, and you have to calculate your wages. Let the mothers do the calculation at night. How many days have you worked, how much will be paid, and the food expenses will also be calculated. Tomorrow, we will go to the commune to find Secretary Chen."

  Ye Yaopeng reminded, "Father, we have to inspect the boat tomorrow first, and it can't be a broken boat for us."

   "Sure, I have to try the water anyway."

  Sister-in-law Ye happily asked: "Where should we choose for the new foundation?"

  Father Ye looked at the three brothers, "Where do you want to choose?"

   "Choose the land in front of the beach. It's close to the sea. When the tide goes out, you'll know immediately. It's convenient to go to the sea."

   To everyone, Ye Yaodong wouldn’t say something like facing the sea, spring flowers blooming, if his parents heard it, they would probably be hammered again, facing the sea every day for three meals, spring flowers blooming?

  Father Ye frowned, "Typhoon day..."

   "Don't build it too far forward, as long as the waves don't hit it, this one is close to the beach, and you can save a little walk to the pier."

  Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua have no opinion, they can cover anywhere.

   Mrs. Ye and Mrs. Ye also think what he said is quite reasonable. You can see the high tide and low tide at any time, and you can go to the beach one step faster than others when the tide goes out, as long as you cover it where the waves can't hit it.

   "If you have no objections, then build that piece and measure it tomorrow."

  Father Ye saw that there was no voice of objection, so he made a final decision.

  Because there were important things to do the next day, Father Ye did not go to sea at night, and the house also went overnight to inform the workers to suspend work temporarily, and resume work after confirming a new homestead.

  The small wooden boat is 6 meters long and has a load of about 5 tons. It is not too old. If you buy it second-hand, it will cost about 200 yuan.

Father Ye paddled a circle on the sea. After checking that there was no problem, he asked the old shipbuilder in their village to help him to check again. After there was no problem, he went to the commune to find Secretary Chen to be a witness. By the way Zoned for a new homestead.

  Everyone in the Ye family was very happy. It was just a change of homestead, and they got a boat for nothing. There is nothing better than this.

After the transaction went smoothly, Secretary Lin repeatedly confirmed with Father Ye that they were voluntary, and then simply issued a new certificate, and then approved the piece of land by the sea. Of course, the money came from Zhou Yechi, Lin Jishang's cousin. .

  After calculating the wages, the Ye family didn't care about the land, and planned to inform the workers to dig a hole at the new foundation tomorrow and start work again.

  After returning home, Ye Yaodong couldn't help asking: "Father, what are you going to do with that boat?"

   "Huh? What are you going to do?"

   "You have a big boat, and you can't drive that small boat!"

  Father Ye frowned, "What do you want to do?"

   "Sell it to me!"

  A boat of 6 meters is not too small. He can’t afford to buy a bigger one, and he can’t afford a new one.

  It’s better than taking turns going to sea with his two elder brothers and his father, which only happens once every three days, and all the money earned from trawling nets has to be confiscated to build a house, and there is no money at all.

  He wants to make money, but he doesn't know how to do business, has no capital, and no one trusts him. As a seasider, it's not bad for him to get a small wooden boat to put the cage net first.

You know, fishing boats are the tools that seaside people rely on for survival. Few people will resell good boats, unless the small boats are replaced by big boats, and the obsolete boats will be sold to relatives first, and second-hand boats are not easy to buy. Today This boat was his chance.

  As soon as this remark came out, everyone was surprised and asked in unison: "Do you want to buy it?"

   "Can't you?"

  Father Ye frowned, "Why don't you buy your own boat, if you need it, just take it and drive it."

   "Father, you have three sons, who do you plan to open for?"

  Uh... This question really confused Father Ye.

  Mother Ye has more experience in balancing the family, so she changed the subject and said, "Dongzi, why did you buy that wooden boat?"

   "I want to have a boat of my own. I can't afford a new one, and I can't buy a second-hand one. It just so happens that my family has an extra boat, and the three brothers can't share it, so I want to buy it."

  The two brothers Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua heard him say that they wanted to have a boat of their own, and their hearts were a little bit ready to move, and they wanted it too.

  Father Ye looked at him suspiciously, "You want to go fishing by yourself?"

  Why did he not believe it so much? If the eldest brother and the second child say they want a boat of their own, he will definitely believe it, but the third child...

  Plenty of criminal records!

  Even though he seems to be diligent and willing to work recently, he doubts how long this guy can keep it!
