Chapter 329
He became energetic in an instant, and greeted Lin's father and mother happily, "Grandpa and grandma, little uncle said to take us out to sea to catch squid at night, and asked you to stay for a few more days."

"Why are you going to sea, don't mess around, don't cause trouble for your little uncle, he is tired enough to go to sea every day, don't meddle in it..." Mother Lin frowned when she heard that, for fear that her child would be too noisy , just adding chaos to other people's homes.

Father Lin also glared, "How did you tell you before you left? Tell you to be good and obedient..."

"Hey...it's none of A Yuan's business, I suggested it."

Seeing that Lin Guangyuan was being scolded as soon as he ran over, Ye Yaodong hurriedly stepped forward to explain that it's fine to tease him every day, and he can't really make him go back and get beaten for no reason.

"It's the squid season recently, we can't catch them every day, and a lot of them are stranded on the beach, which is cheaper than the seabirds. I thought you happened to come here, and I just happened to take you out to the sea, pick up some squids and bring them back or It doesn't matter if you sell it for a little money, you can pick up a hundred catties."

Both Lin's father and Lin's mother were surprised, "A hundred catties?"

"Can you pick up a hundred catties? So many squids?"

"It may be more than that. There are too many seabirds on the island, and most of them are eaten by them."

Lin's mother was speechless, "My dear, you can pick up a hundred catties if you pick it up, so how much can you sell it for?"

"It was more than thirty cents a catty a few days ago, just in time for the flood season, so I asked Ayuan to ask you, if the quantity is too large, the price will drop again. The price varies from day to day. It depends on the situation!"

With the adults of the Lin family following, they can rest assured that they can bring Lin Guangyuan with them.

Seeing that he has been quite obedient recently, and he worked very hard some time ago, we might as well satisfy his little wish.

"That's a lot, you'd better go to the seaside!" Lin's mother looked at Lin's father with some excitement, "Should we stay for one night?"

Father Lin was also very moved when he heard this, "Will it be too much trouble? You should be very busy too, so it would be bad to make trouble for you. A Yuan's stay here these days is enough for you to be busy..."

"Why? This kid is quite obedient. He also helped us dig sandworms and go up the mountain to chop firewood and bamboo shoots. He was very diligent and helped us a lot."

Ye Yaodong praised a few words, Lin Guangyuan immediately smiled after the rain.

It's better for my little uncle, as soon as his grandpa and grandma heard him tell them to stay, they scolded them without asking, which made him mad.

Ye's mother also smiled and said to help: "Ah Yuan is quite easy, he is very obedient, and he plays well with his brothers. You can let him play here for a few more days."

"If you are not afraid of hard work, you can also go out to sea with Dongzi at night to pick up some squid and make some money."

Father Lin said politely: "We are all used to work, how can we be afraid of hard work? We are afraid of causing trouble to you..."

"Where's the trouble? Those squids were eaten by seabirds, and we were so distressed. We just picked up some more when they came." Father Ye also persuaded him to stay.

"There are still vacant rooms in the old house. Those who are moving are moving, and those who are getting married are getting married. Now there are more rooms, so you can stay for two days at ease."

"Yes, yes, yes, don't be afraid that you won't be able to live, there are many houses..."

Lin Guangyuan also nodded, looking expectantly at Lin's father and Lin's mother, "Yes, yes, let's go pick squids too, otherwise my uncle and the others won't have time to pick them up, it's a waste, let's pick up some more and go back or sell them for money."

Lin's father and Lin's mother were also very moved. Seeing that Ye Yaodong's family was smiling and inviting them to stay, they followed suit.

Lin Guangyuan was so happy that he almost jumped up.

Ye Chenghai and the others couldn't help showing envious expressions, "It's great, you can go out to play, I haven't even been on a boat yet."

"Hey, why don't you ask little uncle?"

"Don't think about it, my parents won't take me with me, and I'm still called third uncle, my legs will be discounted."

Mrs. Ye also gave him a squinting look, "It's good that you know, why don't you go to school? You've already eaten your lunch, so what are you doing at home?"

Ye Chenghai pursed his lips, stared secretly at the back of his mother's head, and then waved to a group of brothers and sisters, "Let's go, there is no hope, go to school."

After Lin's father and Lin's mother decided to stay, after watching Ah Qing and the children, they also asked them about the recent situation of the cargo at sea, and by the way, they also helped to tie firewood together.

Ye Yaodong knew everything and talked freely, which made the two elders feel much more satisfied with their son-in-law.

While they were chatting, the master who repaired the machine in the village came to the door.

Ye Yaodong stood up and greeted him, "Is the machine repaired?"

The master who repaired the machine smiled embarrassedly, "It's fixed, the repair shop is quite busy these days, and it's been delayed until now."

"It's okay, as long as it can be fixed."

At that time, the machine from the sea had just been pulled back, and it happened that someone had come to check it. Ah Qing was anxious, and immediately started it. No one in the family was free to take care of the machine.

After waiting for a day or two, everything inside and out was sorted out, and when he was done with work, he had time to ask someone to come over to take a look. However, the tools were not complete and he couldn't repair it on the spot, so he had to carry it back to the master.

I didn't expect it to be here now after being carried back. It took 20 days before it was repaired and sent here. Fortunately, he was not in a hurry.

"Are you an extra machine? You didn't even rush me."

Ye Yaodong said angrily: "Otherwise? If it weren't for the useless old machine, I could come to your door every day and force you to death."

"Hehe...I think so too."

"How much does it cost to repair? Can you see how much my machine is worth if I sell it?"

There is already one on board, but this one is useless to him, so it is better to sell it to save it from rusting.

"Take 10 yuan. It's not easy to repair. All the parts have to be disassembled and cleaned from the inside to the outside. After all, it has been soaked in sea water. After washing, the broken parts have to be removed. They were all replaced, and it took a lot of work, and it took me several days to finish it."

"Then if this machine is sold, how much is it worth?" Father Ye also asked with concern.

"It's worth 200 yuan. After all, it has been repaired and it can still work."

"Just 200?"

"About that, quite high."

"Then sell it to you, do you want it?"

"Ah?" The master stared, "You have no money to pay?"

Ye Yaodong rolled his eyes, "It's only ten yuan, am I that poor? I just think it's useless to keep it at hand, or sell it, do you want it? If not, I'll ask someone else."

The master hesitated for a while, thought for a while, and nodded, "It's fine, you can sell it at my place, it's your price..."

"200, what you just said! Do you still want to go back on your word?"

"No, what I just said is worth this price, then if you want to take it back to me, then it must not be at this price, and I will definitely make money if I resell it, otherwise why would I take you over?"

"Then how much did you say?"

"160."

Ye Yaodong stared.

The master hurriedly added: "After deducting the repair fee of 160, don't you still give me ten yuan for the repair fee."

"Then you are too rascal, right? At least you need to earn 30 yuan."

"Don't I have to take risks too, what if I can't sell it and smash it in my hands?"

"How could it not be sold?"

"How is it impossible? Not everyone is worthy of the machine, how can those small wooden boats be willing to buy and install it?"

"180 deducts 10 yuan for the repair fee, you give me 170, otherwise I will sell it myself, let the word out, someone will come to buy it, it doesn't matter how long it takes."

"165, just 165, it's fine, it's okay," the master murmured reluctantly, "it's a lot of work to move around, just earn some hard money, you still need it." Counter-offer. I made you ten yuan, but in the end I paid so much..."

"Oh, let's go to 165. Don't talk about it. If you sell it, you will make money. Give me the money quickly."

Ye Yaodong didn't bother to talk anymore, he picked it up for nothing anyway, so it's fine if he can sell so much.

Now it's the master's turn to say angrily, "Why are you in a hurry, who has nothing to do with putting so much money in their pockets? I'll give it to you when I go back, and you also come with me, and help move it along the way."

"OK, no problem."

Ye Yaodong ran after him again, and then came back with the money.

Mother Ye said with satisfaction: "165 is not a lot, it's okay to sell this machine for nothing."

Second Aunt Ye enviously said: "You can buy a random machine and sell it for one or two hundred. No wonder those people in Luzhou Island like big boats to bully small boats and move machines."

"People are doing it, and the sky is watching. Those people will be unlucky sooner or later."

Mrs. Ye smiled and said, "The machine that Dongzi picked up from the sea must be from the shipwreck on Luzhou Island not long ago, right?"

Sister-in-law Ye is still smart and quick to respond, of course Ye Yaodong will not admit it.

Father Ye also knew that he couldn't admit it, "Who said it belonged to them? There are many accidents at sea, as long as it can be sold for money, it doesn't matter which ship it is on."

"Well, I'll take the money into the house first."

Lin Xiuqing had heard the movement at the door a long time ago, but because she could only lie down and not go out.

Seeing Ye Yaodong come in, she immediately asked: "What are you talking about one hundred and sixty-eight?"

"The machine sold for 165. On the day of your production, we dragged it back from the sea. It was sent for repair at that time, and it was repaired until now."

"It's still worth a lot of money after it's been repaired. At that time, I asked the junk collector, and they said they could only sell it for a few dollars or a few handfuls. It's okay, and it can be repaired."

"It's so valuable?" Lin Xiuqing was used to him saying a few foul words from time to time, so she said indifferently: "It's good, I made a lot of money again, let's put the money in the drawer first."

Ye Yaodong complied, and then sat down on the bedside to fawn on her and said to her: "This is money for nothing, why don't you use it to buy a theater box? Watches, sewing machines, bicycles, we have all of them, and it's almost a ring. Come just in time to listen to the radio drama for the old lady."

"You are so filial."

This is not a small sum, not a pair of dentures, a few clothes, or the money spent on food and drink. Lin Xiuqing is a little bit reluctant. She herself used to live frugally, so she is not willing to.

"The old lady has been miserable for half her life, and she hasn't had a good life for a few days when she is old. It's just that she has changed her life in the past two years. Buy it, buy her one, so that she will not be bored, otherwise she will spend all day Sit by the door to bask in the sun, take a nap..."

It made him look like he was waiting to die, and he felt a little uncomfortable.

Buying a radio for her to listen to the radio can also keep her entertained, and her mental outlook may be better.

If you feel better, you can live longer.

"Anyway, it's the money you picked up, so don't feel bad. You can buy a cheap one for only a hundred dollars, and you can still have some left over."

"As long as you are willing."

Ye Yaodong smiled, and happily kissed her cheek, "Then it's settled!"

She could only comfort herself by saying that it was money for nothing.

Lin Xiuqing turned her head, "I haven't washed my face or brushed my teeth for more than 20 days, you can kiss me, is it disgusting?"

"It's okay, isn't this to please you? How can I dislike it."

"Go, go, go away."

 The second one may be two or three o'clock, or tomorrow during the day, don't wait!Don't wait!
