After checking a few bags and finding no problems, they began to weigh them and record the weight. The weighed ones were directly moved onto the big Jiefang until they reached 3,000 kilograms.
The villagers frequently looked back and forth between the Great Jiefang and the yard, and the discussion became more and more lively.
The children ran and jumped back and forth, as excited as if it was New Year's Day.
"It would be even better if we could climb up and sit on it!"
"Yes, it would be better if we could sit up there for a while."
"We can't do that? If we just climb up there, our mother will get angry and beat us."
"Yes, I can't climb it, I can only look at it and touch it..."
"Just ask Uncle San. Ask Uncle San if you can go up. If Uncle San says yes, then Mom definitely can't hit anyone!"
"Then... let's ask Uncle San?"
“Let’s go… Let’s go…”
"Make way... Make way..."
The kids had their own ideas. They had seen and touched enough and now wanted to sit on it and experience it for themselves. After discussing it for a while, they hurried back to the gate of the courtyard, but there were too many people gathered at the gate to watch the fun.
A few of those little guys were pushing their way into the crowd, shoving their way here and there, yelling at others to make way.
Just as they were about to carry out some dried fish, the villagers automatically made way for them, and a group of children rushed in, but they bumped into Ye Yaopeng who was helping to carry the dried fish.
A sack of dried fish almost fell off his shoulders, making the adults extremely angry.
"You guys are everywhere, go out and play, don't get in the way here, or I'll beat you all up when I have time."
"We didn't mean to..."
Mrs. Ye and Mrs. Ye, who were watching from the side, quickly grabbed their children's clothes, pulled them aside, and started cursing.
"We are not causing any trouble. We just want to ask Uncle San if we can sit on the big Jiefang for a while."
"You want to go to heaven? I'm glad I let you touch it. Don't make trouble here and get in the way. Go to school quickly. If you are late, you will be punished by standing in the corner."
Ye Yaodong ignored them and deserved to be scolded and beaten!
This isn't his car. If it were, he could just put them all in and take them for a ride.
Mrs. Ye also drove the children out, "What do you want to do? Get out and go to school. You have seen and touched. If you are late, you will be punished by standing in the corner and being laughed at."
A few children were reluctant to leave, and even after being kicked out, they stayed outside, circling around the big box and touching everything.
When the villagers saw them carrying the goods back and forth, they asked the brothers Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua, "Are you going to fill up the whole truck? How much do you need?"
"Adong is really promising. He sells dried fish and the Jiefang Army can send him here..."
"Several thousand kilograms, right?"
Ye Yaopeng also felt hot from carrying so he took off his coat and cotton-padded jacket and replied, "We need to load 3,000 kilograms."
"Oh my god, there are so many. No wonder there are so many piles in the yard. It takes a long time to weigh them."
"Yeah, if we sell 3,000 kilograms at once, how much money can we make? Several hundred, right?"
"Get rich again..."
"Good fortune..."
"This is much better than fishing..."
The two brothers smiled innocently and walked into the yard together without saying much.
The Zhou brothers, who were neighbors nearby, also pulled them over and said, "Do you want some help? We'll help you move. We're free now."
"No, no, we can move it ourselves. My dad is helping us. We are all men in the family."
"It's okay, everyone lend a hand, move faster, share the burden, and make it easier. Otherwise, you'll just stand there and watch."
Having said that, he went in and helped with the moving.
Several of Ye Yaodong's friends also arrived late and squeezed in to help. The yard was full of people, and there were more people working than things.
Looking at Boss Zhou, everyone couldn't help but say, "You're so popular. In just a short while, a bunch of people came to your door and rushed to help you with your work."
Ye Yaodong laughed, "Who doesn't have a few friends? Who doesn't have a few good neighbors? It's like this in our countryside, everyone is simple and warm-hearted. When there is really something to help, needless to say, everyone will come over to lend a hand."
"That's true. How many pounds have you weighed? There aren't many bags left. Let me count first to see if it's enough..."
"Haha, I checked and weighed them yesterday, so they are all piled in the yard. There are exactly 3,000 kilograms in the yard."
"Ah, then why didn't you tell me earlier? If you had told me earlier, we wouldn't have had to weigh them. We could have just loaded them all into the car."
He just listened to it. It was just polite talk, so how could he take it seriously
Who buys so many things and spends thousands of dollars without checking and weighing them first
Just give the other party whatever they say. What if there is a shortage
"That won't work. We have to check and weigh what needs to be checked. This way you can rest assured, and so can I. We are not just doing a one-time deal."
"Okay, then weigh all those bags and I'll calculate the weight. It shouldn't be off."
Ye Yaodong nodded and turned to look at Lin Xiuqing, "Go inside and get that small basket of dried dancai."
"Okay."
Lin Xiuqing quickly returned and handed a basket of dried dancai to Boss Zhou, saying with a smile, "We dried them ourselves. When the dancai opened after being cooked, we dug out the meat from it and dried it in the sun. This way it is easier to preserve. Boss Zhou, take it home and try it. It's very fragrant when you cook soup or stir-fry celery."
"Just grab a handful and add it when cooking noodles. It's not bad and very fresh. We live by the sea and don't have anything else, but we do have a lot of shells and fish, all of which are very fresh." Ye Yaodong added.
"Adong said he wanted to thank you. Otherwise, if we sold it in small quantities, 3,000 kilograms would not be sold so quickly. We don't have much to show for it, except for the dried goods we made at home."
"You're welcome, you're welcome," Boss Zhou took the basket with a smile, "There's no seafood in the inland areas, so these dried goods are not bad. I'll try them first. If they're good, I'll ask you to buy some later."
There are no fools doing this kind of business, they are all smart people who understand everything.
Ye Yaodong also agreed with a smile, "It doesn't matter whether you accept it or not, just treat it as making friends. There is not much of this shell meat, it takes hundreds of kilograms to dry out that little bit. If you want a large amount, we don't have it either."
"Haha, let's talk about it later."
There is strength in numbers, and every one of them is a strong laborer. 3,000 kilograms of dried fish are not enough for them to carry.
When weighing, they should be slow, otherwise they would all have been loaded onto the truck.
Boss Zhou and others weighed everything and checked, and found that 3,000 kilograms was just the right amount, so he settled the bill immediately.
The villagers at the door stared in amazement as they watched him take out handfuls of Big Unity banknotes from his briefcase.
"My goodness, he really is the big boss..."
"Just pick it up and you'll find a lot of great unity..."
"Tsk tsk tsk, the guy who can afford to drive a big Liberation must be a big boss. I can tell that with my ass."
"How much money would that be? About a thousand dollars?"
"3,000 kilograms, A-Dong, it must have cost a lot, right?"
"He has his own trawl net, so he can definitely make more money..."
Ye Yaodong took the handful of big unity notes, without blinking, and started counting them one by one with his thumb wet with saliva.
After saying it was okay, he tapped the palm of his hand.
"Thank you, Boss Zhou. I am lucky to have met a great man like you."
"No, no, we can make money together. Is the amount okay?"
"No problem, they are all correct."
"Okay, I'll leave now since I'm in a hurry."
"Okay, okay, since you're in such a hurry, I can't delay you from making money. Come over next time if you have a chance, and I'll keep you at home for dinner."
"OK."
The two of them walked out while talking, and a large group of people in the yard followed behind them.
The villagers who had been craning their necks at the door to watch the excitement, when they saw them all come out, they automatically made way for them.
Boss Zhou first walked to the back of the truck to take a look at the stacking of the goods. There was a truck driver directing the stacking, and the dried fish were stacked neatly.
Ye Yaodong saw that there were other goods inside besides the sacks of dried fish, and there was still some empty space outside. He didn't know if they were going to transport more goods, so he asked tentatively.
"Boss Zhou, I see there's still some space on the truck. Do you want to weigh a little more and load it up? You're going to make a trip anyway, and it's going to cost a lot of gas and labor. It's more cost-effective to load more and fill it up completely."
"No, I have to go somewhere else to pick up goods later."
"Oh, like that? Forget it. I'm worried that it will be wasted."
Boss Zhou nodded, then signaled to the driver to cover the thing with the tarpaulin and tie it up tightly.
Ye Chenghu quietly walked to Ye Yaodong's side and said, "Dad, is the Great Liberation leaving?"
"Yes, the goods have been loaded and we are leaving."
"When will you come next time?"
"Then I don't know. You guys are going to school soon. You're all going to be late."
Ye Chenghu looked at the car eagerly, reluctant to leave, "I'll wait until the car leaves before going to school."
The children who were watching the fun on the side also gathered around, and were reluctant to leave.
"Leaving so soon?"
“I haven’t seen enough…”
"When I grow up, I want to open a car too!"
"I want one too, I want one too..."
"I want one too. It's so impressive."
"I don't want to, I want to be a boss! Being a boss is more prestigious!" Ye Chengyang yelled in a baby voice.
His baby voice mixed with a bunch of childish talk was particularly funny.
Ye Yaodong laughed and touched his youngest son's head, "Good boy, you have a bright future!"
Boss Zhou also laughed and said, "Haha, indeed, you are still the smart one, little one."
Ye Chengyang listened to the praise and saw everyone looking at him. He suddenly felt shy. His face turned red and he buried his head in Lin Xiuqing's legs.
Lin Xiuqing also smiled and touched his little head, "Do you know the boss?"
Ye Chengyang was too shy to say a word and hugged her thighs tightly.
