In the evening, next to the orange-red disk, there was a faint red glow, the thick clouds were also burned red, the sky was also inlaid with the mark of afterglow, and the sunset burned half the sky red.
The afterglow of the sunset in summer is particularly beautiful. After dinner, Ye Yaodong sat leisurely in the rocking chair at the door, enjoying the sea breeze and the beauty of the sunset.
The scenery around the house is really good. Facing the sea, you can see the rolling waves; looking at the distant mountains, you can see the lush greenery; at sunset, you can enjoy the afterglow of the sunset.
He is very satisfied with his current life. He works when he should work and relaxes when he should relax. A simple and ordinary life is also good.
After the sun went down, people came and went on the beach. Some were swimming, some were picking up shells, some were playing, and the laughter of adults and children was like the waves, one higher than the other.
Children in the countryside have a really happy childhood without any worries. Their biggest worry may be not knowing how to ask their parents for a few more cents to buy candy. If they are not careful, they may get a beating for no reason.
As soon as Secretary Chen came over, he saw him rocking in the chair leisurely and eating mung bean soup, and he was very envious.
"I'm busy as a dog, why are you so happy?"
"Ah... cough cough cough... why are you here again?"
He choked on the mung bean soup that he hadn't swallowed yet, so he quickly put down the bowl and spoon and coughed a few times.
"Why? You don't welcome me?"
"A little bit. No one comes here for no good reason. I feel like you're here for no good reason."
"Hey... I want to discuss something with you?"
"No need to discuss. If you want to requisition my ship, forget it. That's impossible."
“Uh…” Secretary Chen touched his nose, feeling a little embarrassed. Although he knew that he would not agree, he just wanted to talk about it. After all, it is not good to bother two people with one matter.
Besides, you've been cooperating for so many days? It shouldn't be a big deal if you cooperate for a few more days, right
Secretary Chen thought so and spoke out his true feelings.
Ye Yaodong almost spat in his face, but he didn't expect that he was right.
"Do you know how much money I lose for not going out to sea? Besides, the weather has been good recently. I have done my best by cooperating for a few days. You can't just bully me because I am easy to talk to."
"Aren't you thinking that the leader is familiar with you?"
"What do you mean by familiar? Can familiarity help me get promoted to an official position in the county?"
Secretary Chen glared, "I didn't even dare to think of it, but you are quite capable of thinking of it."
"So it's useless to be familiar with them. I'm not breaking the law. I'm a good citizen who abides by the law. It's better to be familiar with you than to be familiar with them."
"Yeah, then you can also make yourself familiar to me!"
"We are so familiar with each other, do I still need to be familiar with each other?"
Secretary Chen was speechless again.
Ye Yaodong added: "Didn't you requisition three boats today? Just let those three boats continue to serve you."
"It just so happens that those three boats didn't go out to sea today because of something else. It's hard for them to say anything if they take them on a temporary trip."
"It's even harder for me to say. I need to make money and live. I have a family to support, Secretary Chen."
"Didn't I arrange work for your mother and wife?"
Ye Yaodong was unhappy. He had been living off his wife and children all his life in his previous life. He wanted to be tougher in this life to make up for the loss of money and his wife and children in his previous life.
"Aren't you asking me to be a gigolo? Besides, we have separated. My mother earns her own private money, and my father can't control her. My wife has to breastfeed the baby, so she won't have time to go to work in the next few months."
Secretary Chen was frowning. This kid was becoming more and more difficult to talk to.
Just then, Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua came back pushing a cart. As soon as they greeted him, Secretary Chen came forward actively again.
Ye Yaodong shrugged and lay down again. His elder and second brothers certainly couldn't bear to see good money go unearned and be requisitioned.
Even if they agreed, his eldest and second sisters-in-law would not be happy.
There was no doubt that Secretary Chen had just followed them into the house, and came out again after a while, with his brows furrowed even more tightly.
"Hey, Secretary Chen, just let the museum handle it themselves. They can apply for a salvage team. Those people are navy, right? Are you worried that they can't get a few boats?"
"They said so and they also said they had applied, but the county asked us to cooperate with them to arrange the boat first. It's so annoying. Nothing good has happened yet, and there are so many troubles."
While they were talking, Xiaoxiao and Azheng came over together. Ye Yaodong stretched his neck and saw them, and quickly made a quick decision.
"Then I can't help you either... It's not that I won't help you, Secretary Chen, I'm really in a difficult situation too, why don't you ask someone else."
Before Xiaoxiao and A Zheng got close, they saw Secretary Chen with a worried look on his face. They couldn't help but look at each other. They felt that they had come at a wrong time. Would they be conscripted if they were seen
Dongzi has been having a miserable time these days. He was called to the sea to watch over the situation and couldn't go out to sea for several days.
But now that it’s here…
Our country has four famous sayings and the eight tolerances, which are very well said.
For example, the four famous quotes: We are here, it is New Year’s Day, everyone is dead, the child is still young…
The Eight Tolerances: It’s for your own good, you’ll get used to it, it’s not easy, you’re old, and the other four are four famous quotes, which together form the Eight Tolerances.
Awesome! Suitable for any occasion!
A Zheng and Xiao Xiao thought the same thing. It was no longer appropriate to turn around and leave, so they had no choice but to go ahead.
"Secretary Chen, what a coincidence!"
Secretary Chen smiled and said, "I came to play with Ah Dong. I see you guys have become a lot darker recently! Hey? You guys changed to a bigger ship a few months ago..."
Secretary Chen didn't think of it at first, but his eyes lit up when he thought of it later. These two guys also have a boat and have made progress. Ye Yaodong has taken the lead and led them well, and they have all turned over a new leaf.
Xiaoxiao glared and asked, what does Secretary Chen want to do
"It's not that big, just barely enough to cover the lake. Buying that boat has drained our savings, and we still have a lot of foreign debts that we haven't paid off. We've been eating salted fish and sweet potatoes for the past few months. Everyone in the family is starving..."
Secretary Chen's face looked as ugly as if he was constipated. After the reform and opening up, growing up under the red flag of the new era, how could they work so hard to earn money that it became like this
Ye Yaodong laughed wildly in his heart.
He can cry poor even more than him.
No, the one crying is poorer than him.
Ah Zheng asked curiously, "Is Secretary Chen going to requisition more boats? Aren't there three boats taking those people out to sea today?"
"That's because they just haven't gone out to sea yet. Tomorrow they will all go out to sea, and I have to arrange the boats again."
"Is that so? Why don't you just ask the fishing team in town or other villages if they have any unsold ones? Why don't you just rent a few?"
"Ah? Have any of them been sold yet?"
There are fishing teams on the coast. In the early 1980s, the fishing teams were disbanded and all the fishing boats were sold at low prices. The ones in their own village were directly absorbed internally. After all, they were really cheap. Generally, relatives who had connections with the team bought them first.
Secretary Chen also thought that the other brigades had sold out, and he didn't expect to have to go to other brigades to rent this floor.
"I think the small boats and boats of 10 to 20 meters have all been sold. There may be no big boats left because they are not easy to sell. Most fishermen cannot afford boats of 20 to 30 meters. They were so poor in the past few years that they had to empty their family savings and go into debt to buy a small boat or a boat of 10 meters."
"Who has the money to buy one? If they have that much money, who would still want to run a boat? There must be a big boat like this that hasn't been sold yet. It would be great if we could just rent one to accommodate everyone. I bought this boat through a relative."
"Most people can't afford a large ship of 20 to 30 meters, and it needs maintenance when it is parked on the seashore, which is a lot of money. Some teams also hire a few sailors to go out to sea for ten days or half a month, and the profits are considered public, but there are many accidents involving such public ships, and I don't know if the profits are enough to compensate."
Secretary Chen thought about it and felt that it was feasible.
"It's a good thing you reminded me, otherwise my hair would be pulled bald. I'm leaving now, you guys chat."
Xiaoxiao looked at Secretary Chen's back and said, "The village is bustling now. There will be a lot of people coming and going every day."
"I heard that those people were arranged to go to the former educated youth sites."
"Who cares? This is something the village committee should worry about anyway."
As they were talking, they found that Ye Yaodong was a little quiet and they were immediately puzzled.
Ah Zheng spread out his five fingers and waved them in front of him twice, "What are you thinking about, Dongzi? Are you distracted?"
"What fortune-making ideas have you come up with? Share them with us, and let us have some soup, too."
Ye Yaodong came back to his senses and rolled his eyes at them. "What the hell are you dreaming about? Pies are falling from the sky for you to pick up every day. What are you doing here?"
Ah Zheng said with a smile: "I just came back from the sea, and I heard that many people from outside came to the village today. They said that the salvage team came. I thought you were useless..."
"What do you mean I'm useless?"
"Ah... I was thinking about you being free, so I came to ask if you want to go out to sea with me tonight? We have just accomplished our great feat, and there are still many treasures waiting for us. We can't do without you!"
"Okay, I haven't been out to sea for ten days. I've suffered a great loss. I need to make up for it. Let's go together at night." Ye Yaodong had the same idea. He didn't want to move until all the abalone were hollowed out.
Xiao Xiao pointed to the person next to him and whispered, "If you share the good things with us and don't give them to your eldest and second brothers, will they have any objections?"
Ah Zheng took a look from that side and said, "Yeah, would this be bad?"
"It doesn't matter. The rainy season was over then. I asked them if they wanted to come with me, but they didn't want to move."
"How can you not want to move? Right?"
"Yeah, you're giving up the chance to make a fortune? Didn't you tell them you were going to dig abalone?"
Ye Yaodong thought about it and said uncertainly: "I forgot, it seems that he didn't say it? I'll ask later, do you want to stay and have a couple of drinks?"
Xiao Xiao shook her head. "No, I really don't have the energy. I've been working for many days in a row. I'm going to sleep early and have to get up at night. It's too damn tiring. It's not easy to earn hard-earned money!"
"Who said it wasn't? I kind of miss the days when I was just idling around. It was really cool. Why the hell did I become so hardworking? Damn, it's all your fault, Lin Jianyao. If you don't rest, I don't dare to rest."
"Damn it, it's obviously you who doesn't rest, I don't dare to rest because I'm afraid of delaying your making money."
"Go away, it was you who insisted on taking me with you. Otherwise, with so many sisters at home, what else would I do?"
"You are so embarrassed to say that. Can you please have some shame?"
Ye Yaodong watched them bickering with a smile. A Zheng's four sisters were all crazy about their brothers in their previous lives!
After thinking about it, he pondered the idea again.
I don’t know how much a boat of 20 to 30 meters long would cost
