Back To the Small Fishing Village In 1982

Chapter 177: Fu has distant relatives in the mountains

  Chapter 177 Fu has distant relatives in the mountains

  While moving, he heard Uncle Lin praise him. After all the goods on the ship were removed, Ye Yaodong pulled out two cigarettes for him with a smile and asked, "How is Uncle Lin's harvest today?"

  Uncle Lin smiled and took the cigarettes, pinning both of them behind his ears.

"Don't mention it. The machine failed before the boat sailed out to drag two nets. I hurried back and sold it for about ten yuan in total. How can it compare to you? That stingray is three or four times as big as mine. "

   I don’t know when, the gills of the devil fish became valuable.

  Pengyu gills are bony fishes with two rows of side-by-side bony protrusions on the inner edge of each gill arch, also known as gill rakers.

This kind of thing called "inflated fish gills" has been regarded by many people as a panacea for all diseases. It is said that many of the devil fish that have been hunted and killed in recent years have been sent to Guangdong Province. Qingping City.

  The price is not cheap. I heard that the wholesale price of pengyu gills is 3 cents per gram, and 15 cents per catty...

   But as far as he knows, the gills of bulging fish are not any different from those of ordinary sea fish.

But the price of this devil fish is really not cheap. After weighing 43 catties, 7 cents a catty, this fish alone sold for 30 yuan, and the combination of mackerel, sea wolf fish and sea bass sold for 15 yuan. The other small fish are not light in weight, and they are called by category, and they are sold for more than 20 yuan.

  The first time I tried longline fishing in the water, it was very successful. I sold more than 60 yuan on the first day, and the ground cage goods also sold for almost 20 yuan.

  Ye Yaodong smiled, "Fortunately, if Uncle Lin hadn't come back early, he could have dragged dozens of nets a day."

   "It also depends on luck. I just came back early today, and I will talk to some friends who are fishing boats later, and see if there are any second-hand boats for you to ask?"

  He thanked happily: "Thank you, Uncle Lin, I will trouble you."

"You're welcome, it's not a troublesome thing, just open your mouth to ask, it's rare for you kid to make progress, your father is so happy, in the past when he was drinking, he always scolded you and complained, it's rare that you give him face now , work hard in the future."

   "Hey, ok, ok."

   "Go back early, it will rain heavily in a while."

  Ye Yaodong looked at the sky that was suddenly dark again, it was the dark clouds from the sea drifting over, obviously when he just entered the purchase point, the sky was still very bright, and there might be heavy rain in a while.

   "Okay, then you should go back first. It's raining, it's muddy and wet everywhere, and it's inconvenient. Don't worry about the fishing boat. Just ask me when you are free."

"Um."

  Ye Yao, who originally planned to go home quickly, looked at Xiao Xiao and Ah Zheng who were going ashore, and he went over to help them move the fish two times before rushing home with the bucket.

   Just running to the door of the house, it started to rain, and he rushed under the eaves. It didn't matter whether he ran or not, he was already soaked through anyway.

  Lin Xiuqing also saw him coming back from the house, so she quickly came out with a towel, wiped his face and neck for him, "Didn't it just rain? Why are you all wet?"

   "I met a big fish and got splashed all over my body."

  He thought it was a special experience, quite novel, and told her vividly how the devil fish flew into the air, and then how the boat was dragged away by the devil.

   Lin Xiuqing was dumbfounded when she heard this, but she came back to her senses immediately and asked him if he was okay.

   "It's okay, what can happen? It's not in the deep sea, it's just around here. If you fall down, you can swim back."

   "Be careful next time, things are impermanent, and the sea is very risky."

"Um."

   "I'm going to boil water for you. You can take a hot bath. Don't catch a cold. I don't know if it will rain today and I will come back early. The water is still not boiled."

   "It's okay, don't worry, you can order a bowl of noodles for me first! Keep the order first." He took off his clothes while walking, only wearing a pair of shorts, and sat there waiting.

  Lin Xiuqing was pleasantly surprised when she saw the receipt. She knew that he was going to longline today.

   "Is there still a call to make row hooks today?"

   "Yes, I plan to make 1,000 first, and try to change to a larger ship and go to a farther sea area."

   "I don't know when I can buy it? It's not easy to buy, who is willing to sell the boat."

   "Wait a few days and see."

  He also knows this, so he can only take it slowly, it may not be such a coincidence.

  Actually, he was very excited about the boat of Ah Guang’s family at the time, but he didn’t have the capital, otherwise the boat was really suitable, so now he can only pay attention slowly and try his luck.

  There is no need to buy a new boat. The main reason is that you don’t have that much money, so you have to search and save a little. If you can’t buy it for a long time, you can only wait until you have saved enough money.

  It was a rainy day and he couldn't do anything. Ye Yaodong lay down on the bed after eating and taking a shower, planning to take a nap with his wife in his arms.

  Both sons were driven out of the door by him to play with ants.

  Ye Muyu stopped, and saw the two brothers squatting in the corner of the door, playing there with a bamboo, don't know what to play?

   "What are you doing here? You don't even enter the house when it's raining?"

   "Father said he wanted to sleep with mother, so we shouldn't go in and disturb him. He gave Yangyang and me two sticks, and told us not to run around while playing with ants, or the dog's legs would be broken."

  Mother Ye: "..."

   "Go to the house first and don't blow cold wind outside."

   "It's so boring, my brothers and sisters are all going to school, so I can only play with Yangyang at home."

   "Well, they will come back from school after a while, and you can go to school in the second half of next year."

   "No, didn't you agree? I'm going to herd sheep."

  Mother Ye looked at him inexplicably. How come no one wants to study?

  She said angrily: "Go into the room, and don't say such things so loudly in the future, make them laugh."

   "Oh." Ye Chenghu scratched his head and led Ye Chengyang into the room.

  Mother Ye took down the basket she was carrying, and brought out a lacquered washbasin with the word "Hi" on the table.

   "Grandma, are you bringing delicious food again? What kind of delicious food is it?"

   "Just thinking about eating, you climb up to see if you dare to eat?"

   After Ye Mu finished speaking, she searched the house, and then took a vegetable basin of the same style from the top of the corner shelf, picked up the washbasin on the table and poured it in.

  The two children looked disgusted, "It's so disgusting...Why is this again? Dad brought it back before."

   "What's disgusting? Haven't you never eaten it?" Mother Ye reached out to grab a handful from the washbasin as she spoke, and handed it to the two brothers, causing them to back up a few steps in fright.

   "yue~It's too scary~"

   "Scary~"

  Mother Ye took the washbasin and went to the eldest and second family's house after being caught. The family shared a little bit, and then turned around to help kill first.

  At this moment, Lin Xiuqing also woke up hearing the voices outside the house, and quietly climbed out of bed.

   "Mom, are you here? Has the rain stopped outside?"

   "Stop it, your Uncle Lin just sent over a washbasin of sea centipedes, I'll bring them here to share with you, and help you kill them along the way."

   "Ah, oh! Leave me alone."

   "No, you need to do less work, this thing looks too ugly, don't look at it, don't be affected."

  Lin Xiuqing was still a little dazed in her sleep, but she glanced at the washbasin and woke up instantly.

  Mother Ye grabbed a 30cm-long sea centipede in one hand, held scissors in the other hand, inserted it directly through its mouth, pulled it to the end, and threw it into the soup bowl next to it.

  Simply crisp, proficient in business, not sloppy.

   Think about it, she still doesn't reach out, right?

"Your Uncle Lin said that a friend seems to be changing to a big boat of more than 30 meters recently. After he changes to a new boat, his iron boat of more than ten meters may be sold. He has already revealed that Dongzi If you want to sell it, you should find your father."

  Lin Xiuqing nodded happily, "Alright, I'll talk to A Dong later."

"I heard."

  Ye Yaodong came out of the house and stretched himself. He woke up when his wife got out of bed, and got up slowly when he heard the voice outside the house.

   "Where did the sea centipede come from? Mother, don't kill them all, leave a few jobs for me."

   It was very useful to use this thing as bait. He went to get a bowl, grabbed a handful, and left it alone.

   "What are you doing with this?"

   "Useful, as bait."

   "Don't stop doing business, why are you just thinking about fishing? After changing the boat, you can work harder. The boat is not cheap, so you can earn your money back sooner."

  Ye Yaodong rolled his eyes, he is doing business, okay?

"knew."

   Ye Mu saw that he was not stubborn and did not talk too much, and killed all the sea centipedes in the basin, so she went back first.

  Ye Yaodong didn't let Lin Xiuqing touch the ugly thing, and took it to the back door to wash it himself.

   After cleaning, put the basket in the washbasin, and fry the celery and garlic leaves at night.

   Don't look at this ugly thing, it looks a bit disgusting when it's alive, but it tastes really delicious and delicious.

   Before it was time for dinner, as soon as the sea centipede came to the table, Ye Yaodong poured two or two rice wines, and immediately began to taste the food and wine.

   It’s just that they don’t know who spread the reputation that they are rich. At this time, someone actually came to ask for a loan.

Ye Yaodong looked inexplicably at an uncle's cousin who hadn't seen much, "Cousin Meiying, how do you know that my family is rich? We have no money. We just moved to a new house and we have to buy more things at home. Where did we get the money?" I can borrow it."

   "I calculate the interest, I don't borrow in vain, the family is really difficult, and the child is young..."

"But I really have no money. My family also has two children to support. I used to rely on Ah Qing to weave nets for a living. Recently, I only put in two or three months of ground cages, which can barely improve the food at home. Where did you hear about my family? rich?"

  Ye Yaodong was speechless, he didn't even know him well, so he had the nerve to come to borrow money?

   Is he that rich?

  She wants to take care of her father and children, so why doesn't he want to take care of his wife and children?

  Her husband is a waste and likes to gamble, who is to blame? Think he doesn't know her background? It's just that it didn't explode in the village.

   "Ah Dong, relatives, the family is not difficult, so I won't talk to you. Recently, the children are always sick in changing seasons, and they have been fined a lot of money at the beginning of the year. It is really difficult for us..."

  It’s difficult for him too, his wife still has one in her stomach, so he’s worried about it himself!

   "Well, every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite, and I understand you, but my family really doesn't have one. You should know what virtue I did before, and my family is also in difficulty."

   "Adong and Aqing, if you are with relatives, you can help out. Don't shirk it. It has been spread in the village that you dug up dozens of oyster pearls a few days ago and sold them for thousands of dollars."

  Ye Yaodong stared, why didn't he know that he dug dozens of them? How many thousand to buy?

   One by one can really spread the word!

   It is true that Fu has distant relatives in the mountains.

Lin Xiuqing also frowned and said, "I've also heard the rumors in the village. They are all rumors. How can we believe them? They are spread to ten, ten to hundreds, and then they are all rumored. We have become ten thousand households. .Where did our family get the money? Did it come from the strong wind? Who in the village made a fortune by putting cages in the ground for two or three months?"

   "Yes, you have been misled. How can you believe the nonsense spread outside? You have to go to someone else's house and ask again? Our house has just finished building, and money is tight."

  As the saying goes, helping the emergency is not helping the poor. They don’t even count as being poor. They just deserve it. They have hands and feet.

  When he was a waste, his wife could work to support a family.

   Gambling is a bottomless pit, borrowing is nothing, what a rotten person.

  Wang Meiying frowned, with a bitter expression on her face, "There aren't as many as rumored, so there should be some too, right? Can you lend me some money?"

   "Did your cousin-in-law force you to come out to borrow money again? Just leave him alone. If you have a stutter, it's fine if you don't starve to death. Are you still letting him go to gamble?"

"ah?"

"Do you think no one knows about his gambling? Who in the surrounding villages has no relationship with relatives? It's just that everyone spreads a few words in private. Gambling kills people, and you can't get involved. You should try to persuade him." , Just find a job and you won’t have to borrow money in a humble manner.”

Wang Meiying's face turned red immediately, her mouth opened and she couldn't speak, and after a long time she whispered: "He has never done anything, knows nothing, and doesn't know what he can do, so I just wanted to borrow some money." Money, it would be nice if I could turn over the book..."

   What kind of brain is this? How can you still say such a thing?

   Still thinking about turning over the book?

  Ye Yaodong was speechless when he heard this. With such a wife, it is difficult for a man to reform himself!

   Poor people must have something to hate. No wonder they owed a lot of money in their previous life, everyone shouted and beat them, and the children were thrown to the old man at home and ran away.

  He was also drunk.

"Don't even think about it. It's impossible to make money. Gambling will only be a bottomless pit. The more you gamble, the harder it is to stop. At that time, the more you owe, the more you owe. If you owe usury, the whole family will be ruined." .”

"A big man has hands and feet, and can't do heavy work. It's not shameful to help weave a net, right? My elder brother and second brother will help weave the net when they have nothing to do at home. Be diligent, even if you can't live a rich life. But basic food and clothing will definitely not be a problem.”

   When it comes to relatives, he can be regarded as a good word of advice. If it is someone else, he would not be bothered to talk nonsense, but he can still say the same thing as the original, his brain is really confused by shit.

Wang Meiying looked at the indifferent couple sadly, seeing that they would not be moved no matter how much she begged, but just asked her to go home and persuade the man to work hard to support the family. If the persuasion was helpful, she would not come out to borrow money. And she didn't think about making him make money, so she had to return without success.

   Seeing that the man left, the couple looked at each other speechlessly.

   "One is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer. It is probably useless to say it."

   "Fortunately, I don't gamble, I only play a little card occasionally, and I haven't played for a long time recently."

  Lin Xiu gave him an innocent look, "If you gamble, I won't go with you either."

  Ye Yaodong sneered. Fortunately, he was a bit of a waste in his previous life, and he didn’t touch anything he shouldn’t.

  This is all in the past, so he quickly changed the subject, "It's really rumored in the village that our family dug up dozens of oyster pearls and sold them for thousands of dollars?"

   "Isn't that right? In the morning, a large cart brought textiles to our village to sell. I just bought a few pairs of insoles. A bunch of people asked me why I didn't buy other things? They said that our family is rich, so how can we save so much?"

"I felt baffled. It took me a while to understand. Later, I heard that our family has become a million-dollar household. Ask me when I will go to buy appliances? Then I will come to our house to watch TV. I am confused. .”

  The ability to spread word in the countryside is terrifying.

  Ye Yaodong didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "It's just a few oyster pearls. I didn't expect it to be so widely spread. Damn, it's true. I can't hide anything."

"It's good to use it to buy a boat, so that someone will worry about it. If someone comes to borrow money every three days, I can't stand it. I have an excuse to refuse. And after a few months, my stomach will grow bigger. There are people coming to the door every day, and I can’t hide it.”

   "Well, indeed, keep a low profile, and you won't be able to tell your mother everything in the future. The women in these villages like to show off when they have nothing to do and chat."

   "Didn't Mother see this?"

   "I know, I know, let's eat first, and the matter of the boat should be soon."

   "Well, I don't know where the two **** have gone. It rained just now, and the place is wet everywhere. If you get covered all over later, you will beat me..."

  Lin Xiuqing ran to the door while chanting, shouting at the top of her voice, louder and louder, and after a while, seven or eight children ran up from the beach.

  She slapped the sand on their bodies and scolded them. The two children were not afraid. They made funny faces and ran into the house to eat.

   In the end, Ye Yaodong patted the back of his hand alone, "Go wash your hands first, can you eat with this hand? I didn't even dare to eat with you."

   "Slightly slightly slightly ~"

   There is one more chapter, and it will come out in about ten minutes
