With anticipation, the two children ate faster than anyone else, and after the quick pickling, they stood by the side and waited, staring at his father with burning eyes.

Ye Yaodong felt two fiery gazes, and felt uneasy about eating.

"You two wait outside, find out the wire first, there seems to be some in the yard, if not enough, go to the old house and ask your grandfather for some."

"okay."

Ye Chenghu ran out excitedly, and Ye Chengyang followed closely on his short legs.

Lin Xiuqing was eating, and urged him vaguely, "Eat quickly, or you will run in and talk about it later, and I don't know who it looks like..."

"My mother! Who else can I be like?"

She couldn't help laughing.

Ye Yaodong ate the few mouthfuls of rice left in the bowl, and then went out the door. The two children were not in the yard, they ran away without a trace.

He looked around, but found only a small clump of copper wire.

At this time, the two ran back from nowhere, and brought back an abandoned iron bucket and a small group of iron sheets.

"Father, Grandpa gave me the iron bucket. He said that this bucket is rusty and leaky. It is useless. I just let you use the wide iron ring under the buttocks of the iron bucket. You don't need to circle it."

Ye Yaodong took the discarded iron bucket in his hand, picked it up, turned it around, and looked at it, "How do I get it? It's so convenient to tell him? I don't know how to get the iron ring on the broken wooden bucket?"

"You won't do it again?"

Ye Chenghu is going to die of worry, why doesn't his father know anything?

Ye Yaodong glanced at him lightly, "Is it you?"

"I can't, if I can, I won't call you."

Ye Yaodong frowned so much that he could kill a fly, brat, what a nuisance.

"You have gone to the old house, why don't you just ask your grandfather to do it?"

"Ah? It's not what you said you would do for me!"

"You don't know how to change things at all, you idiot!"

Ye Yaodong took the iron bucket and turned it around a couple more times. After thinking about it, let it go. It's very laborious to take it off, so let's just use the iron sheet to make one first.

There is another one that can be made with the wire you just found.

After casually throwing the bucket to the corner, he took the iron sheet brought back by the two children, stretched it to see the length, and tried it in a circle. Indeed, it was only enough to make one.

This rolling iron ring is composed of two parts, one is the circle made of iron sheets, and the other is the long handle that pushes the iron ring forward.

The production of the iron ring is very simple, just use iron tongs to bend the iron sheet into a ring and fix it, the size is like the mouth of a wooden barrel.

The same is true for the iron wire, which is bent into a circle and wound tightly. Make it as round as possible, so that it is conducive to rolling.

For the sake of the small children and the need for easy control, Ye Yaodong made them one big and one small according to their heights.

Both of them squatted in front of him when he was sitting and busying, and stared there unblinkingly.

"Is it all right, Dad? Is the circle all right? Let me just say it's easy!"

Seeing that the circle had formed, Ye Chenghu couldn't wait to reach out to grab it, "The big one must be mine."

"What's the hurry? There's still a handle."

"Then hurry up."

Ye Yaodong unhurriedly put the circle on the ground, and lit a cigarette for himself first.

After taking two puffs and flicking the cigarette butt, it was caught between the middle finger and index finger again, and then used the remaining wire to make another long-handled iron hook.

"Okay, okay, it's finally done." Ye Chenghu couldn't wait to reach out his hand again.

Ye Yaodong slapped it off bluntly, "What's the rush, I'll add something later for you."

He continued to fiddle with the remaining bit of wire, made a small iron ring, and put it on the iron ring.

"See? This little circle, when you don't push it, you can hook it with a hook, hang it up and carry it on your shoulders, just like Lin Chong holding a gourd with an iron gun, so it won't fall off."

"Huh? Who is Lin Chong?"

"It's in Water Margin, that's why I told you to study hard. When you chat with people in the future, they will talk a lot. You are all? Ah? Ah? It seems that you are uneducated and ignorant."

Ye Chengyang tilted his head and asked curiously, "Has Dad read a lot?"

Crit! ! !

"Uh... cough cough... this one is ready, you can play with it, the next one will be ready soon."

Ye Yaodong asked the child honestly, but he was overwhelmed by the questioning, so he simply put the iron ring on him and slung it over his shoulder, just like Nezha carrying the Qiankun ring.

Ye Chengyang stood up excitedly in an instant, "Ah, I also have an iron ring~ I'm looking for Brother Ahai~"

Ye Chenghu saw that Ye Chengyang had already put on the iron ring and ran away, and he was very anxious, "Hurry up, Dad, Yangyang has run away..."

"More haste less speed."

Ye Yaodong held the burning cigarette in his hand, took two more puffs before flicking it away, "I forgot that we are at home, not at sea, it's so easy, you go over there and step on it to put out the flames."

"Oh, why do adults have to smoke?"

Ye Yaodong also put an iron ring on the one that Ye Yaodong gave him, and he was so happy, he put it around his neck and ran out contentedly.

"Hey? Wait, didn't you say you wanted to borrow me to play?"

"When I have had enough fun..."

Before the words were finished, the person had already ran out a long way.

"You can't trust the words of men, and you can't trust the words of boys! You can't trust the words of boys!"

Lin Xiu heard this sentence after cleaning the bowls and tidying up the stove. She just thought it was funny, "Where did you get such a deep feeling?"

"I'll just talk casually, just for fun."

"I thought you were cheated by some man."

"Nonsense, I'm not a little girl."

……

After sending them both away, Ye Yaodong originally thought that the world would be quiet, and planned to go into the house to take a nap and get ready to go out to sea at night, but he didn't expect that the excitement had just begun.

He just took off his cotton-padded jacket and lay down on the bed. Before he could close his eyes, he heard laughter and laughter outside the room. The lively sounds were louder and louder, and they were all children's play.

A group of children were playing hoops at the door, and he knew how they played just by the sound.

Fortunately, after a while, they rolled and rolled away, otherwise they would have to get up and chase people away.

After getting enough sleep during the day, Ye Yaodong naturally woke up energetic at night.

No one was hired today, just him and his father, and there was no need to hire someone to drag the net. In case there was no goods to put the net, there was no need for three people, two people could handle it.

I haven't gone to sea for many days, the pier has been sluggish for a while, and it starts to be lively again at night. People who know each other will say hello when they meet.

However, there are too many people who greeted him today?

All the faces were full of smiles, making him seem like a sweet potato. He had never felt such enthusiasm from the folks.

I haven't walked around the village for a few days, so the change is so big?
He didn't ask his father until he got on the boat, "Is there any legend about me circulating in the village recently?"

The smile on Father Ye's face was still hanging there, he nodded, "I don't know who passed it on, anyway, everyone knows that you bought two shops in the city and paid the money a few days ago. Everyone in the village is praising you these days."

"Oh, let's pass it on, it doesn't matter, it just happened to empty out the family again. But, what are you praising me for?"

"I will go for a walk in the village tomorrow, and I will know after listening."

"Can't you tell me?"

"What are you talking about? Besides, your tail is up to the sky, so hurry up and sail."

"Well, I don't talk about it anyway, I can guess it. It just means that I am promising, the prodigal son has turned around, and I have earned such a big family business in only one year. No one's children are worthy of me. After you and my mother It's going to be a great blessing..."

Father Ye was speechless for a while, "You know everything and still ask?"

"Ah? Really? I'll just say it casually. These people are really nothing new. They only boast a few words. They won't boast that I will definitely be an official and a boss in the future, start a company and make a fortune..."

"Stop dreaming, praise you casually, don't take it seriously, you still have to do what you should do."

"You can't just say a few more words to make me happy." Ye Yaodong muttered a few words, and honestly went to sail.

How can anyone be unhappy when they are praised?
He stood at the bow of the boat in high spirits, blowing in the wind. It has only been more than a year, but he is different, and the days are getting more and more hopeful.

In fact, what he wants most now is the health and safety of his family. The money he earns is already enough to spend. As long as he doesn't get involved in pornography, gambling and drugs, his family's wealth will gradually increase anyway.

On the sea, the sea wind was blowing, and the boat swayed with the sea wind. Although there was no wind on the shore, there were no waves on the shore.

But the sea was different, it was open all around, and the sound of the wind and sea waves in his ears could almost cover the sound of the diesel engine, resounding in his ears, but as long as the fishing boat could bear it.

The boat quickly sailed to the sea area where they used to trawl nets in the past, and hadn't been out in the sea for ten days. He thought they came out early enough today.

Unexpectedly, after arriving at the destination, I saw that there were already boats fishing on the nearby sea.

Is there anyone more diligent than him?
Seeing a boat sailing there at a constant speed, I knew it was working, but I didn't know why it suddenly broke into his territory.

However, the sea area is not his family's. If others drag others, he will do his own. Just don't interfere with each other.

It didn't take long for others to discover him, and everyone maintained a tacit understanding at the same time, doing their own things. They are all good citizens, as long as they don't deliberately find fault, everyone is relatively peaceful.

While trawling nets normally, Ye Yaodong saw that the first net received goods was okay, so he didn't release the sticky nets for now, this was really troublesome.

But maybe you can wait until the trawling is over, and if you still have time, you can put a dozen or twenty more, so that if there is weather tomorrow, you can put them back and forth again.

Even if the weather is not good, a dozen nets can be quickly collected and collected, and they won't stay for long.

Ye Yaodong's abacus was crackling, he wanted to make full use of everything, after all he can be regarded as a debt now, although the fixed assets have increased.

After collecting two nets, there were five or six baskets of frogfish and other fish on the boat. He originally thought that these fish would be the only ones today, and there was nothing good to buy.

It's just that he didn't expect that his father had been watching the other boat all the time.

"Dongzi, that boat is wrong, it hasn't moved for a long time."
