Back To the Small Fishing Village In 1982

  The army sold 300 catties, and there were more than 400 catties in the car. Ye Yaodong looked quite worried. It seemed that there would be a lot left today, and he had to pick it up again.

  Go to the market at this point, don’t know how many catties you can sell?

   "Hey, Uncle Zhou, what time do you want to go back after transporting the sand?" Ye Yaodong stood up and asked the tractor master in front of him loudly.

   "What time is it?"

   "It's 8 o'clock now."

   "Then send you to the market, and I will go to the sand field to transport sand, and it will be eleven or twelve o'clock when I return."

  Ye Yaodong thought about it, and it’s almost time to go back at this time, otherwise, if he went to set up a stall at the entrance of the station, although he said he could sell a lot, it would not be safe.

  Yesterday, those punks didn’t know if they would go there again to find someone. After all, they were beaten, and they would definitely remember it for a long time. It’s normal to go around the place where they were beaten from time to time to see if they can find their way back?

"Father, let's sell at the market for a few hours, so let's go back with Uncle Zhou's sand truck? Don't go to the station to set up a stall. It's too chaotic. Go back early to save trouble. There is no car when you go back, and you have to be slaughtered once." .”

"OK."

  Ye Yaodong shouted to Uncle Zhou again: "Uncle, after you finish transporting the sand, you can go to the market to pick us up! I'll add some money, and we will go back with you."

   "Huh? You still have several bags left, can you sell them all? If you can't sell them all, you can't put them down."

"Should be able to sell one or two bags, don't you have a few baffles on your car? Stand it up and raise it to prevent the sand from leaking out. When the time comes, we will fold the sacks on the edge and watch for ourselves. Or tie it to the tractor with a rope, it should work."

   "Alright then, after I transport the sand, I'll go to the market to pick you up again."

"Okay, thank you. Well, you can help us keep the fact that we sold the dried fish to the army a secret? If it gets out, the village should spread it very exaggeratedly. Everyone has no way to sell it. You will be jealous, and you will have to cause trouble for yourself, one more thing is worse than one less thing."

   Ye Yaodong handed over a pack of cigarettes as he spoke.

"Don't worry, I just drive and don't care about my business. I keep my mouth shut. I want to earn more for your travel expenses. There are few people in the village who use tractors as frequently as you. Apart from getting married, no one is usually willing to apply for tractors throughout the year. Tractor, would rather go with a broken leg."

   "Hahaha, that's true, the folks can endure hardships and stand hard work, and they may be able to walk."

   "However, your brain is really good. You can also sell dried fish to the army. You are too capable. Who would have thought of it? That is the army. Most people can't get close even if they want to, and they still can't find the way."

   "Good luck, good luck."

   "You shouldn't be earning less, right? Show me the truth?"

   "Hey, it's just a hard-earned money. It's easy to sell to the army, and it's cheaper. It's not as good as retail, just to save trouble."

   "Indeed, otherwise, if you set up a stall, you will have to sell every catty for a whole year."

   "Oops~ Uncle, watch out, don't focus on talking, and be careful of the pits on the ground."

  Uncle Zhou was busy talking to him, but he didn’t see a big hole in the ground, so he drove over directly, and he and his father were almost bouncing into the sky, but fortunately, they were held tight.

   "Hehe, I'm getting older and my eyes are not working well. If I open it for a year or two, I can pass on my job to my son. Alas, there are too many sons. I don't know who to give it to? Whoever it is, I have to fight..."

  Father Ye agreed very much: "It's not easy to divide. It's just one job. The division is unfair. The brothers have to be beaten to death."

  He has a deep understanding that the eldest daughter-in-law and the second daughter-in-law have already begun to think about Ye Mu's work in the Women's Federation, and they often ask side-by-side questions.

"That is to say, this job can be regarded as an iron job now. I have been working for so many years. If the village wants to find someone to take over, it is also asking me to find someone. Then I will definitely give the job to my son, and then pass it on from generation to generation. It is for No one is fair, I am afraid that they will fight, and I am worrying, so I can only continue to work for another two years and see."

  Ye Yaodong kept his mouth shut. Tractors cannot be passed down from generation to generation, but they can indeed be driven for many years.

  Father Ye also chatted with Uncle Zhou on the topic of distribution...

  When they parted, the two elders still had a lot to say.

  It was already late to come to the market at this time, and it was sparsely populated, not many people, not as many people as in the early morning, but Uncle Zhou was going to transport sand.

  All the goods had been moved down, so he searched around before he found a vacancy.

   It happened to be two stalls away from the man who sold shrimp skins yesterday, and he even said hello. They asked him why he came so late today? He explained a few more sentences.

  The stall was only set up for three hours, and it was not the peak time when the crowds were concentrated. When Uncle Zhou came to pick them up again, Ye Yaodong had just sold out a whole bag of dried fish.

  One bag weighs about 60 catties. Some bags contain more, some contain less, and there is no exact number. You have to go back and count the money to know.

  Before getting into the car, Ye Yaodong bought some fried beans this time. This is good for drinking or as a snack for children. Grab a handful for them and put it in their pockets. It can be eaten for a long time and is delicious.

  On the way back, he and his father also chewed on the delicious food, and sold it for more than 100 yuan today. Both of them were in a good mood.

  However, the good mood is only reserved before getting off the car.

  He thought that when he got home today, the two sons would still happily run out to greet him, but he didn't expect that he was acting affectionate, and only Ye Chengyang ran out holding the dog.

  Ye Chenghu was poking the dog with a stick to play in the yard. When he came back, he only looked up, and no one would even give him a second glance.

   When he came to the front, he only called Dad once.

  Ye Yaodong knelt down and stared at him, "I'm back, is this your attitude?"

  Ye Chenghu pouted and remained silent.

   But Ye Chengyang leaked his details, "My brother was detained by the teacher after school, and when he came back, he was beaten by his mother."

  He raised his eyebrows, "What did you do? Still detained in school?"

   "He keeps poking people's backs during exams..."

  Ye Yaodong couldn't help laughing instantly, "Do you want the answer?"

   "You talk a lot, learn how to speak well." Ye Chenghu glared at Ye Chengyang,

  Ye Chengyang was suppressed by blood, squatted and took a step back in fear, "Everyone knows!"

  Ye Yaodong smiled and flicked Ye Chenghu's forehead, and took out a large paper bag of beans in his pocket, "Okay, it's a big deal, each person grabs a handful."

"beans!"

  The two brothers' eyes widened in surprise!

   Where are the little emotions?

   Now there is only excitement left.

   "Ah! Dad brought us delicious food again."

  Ye Chenghu took the lead to grab a handful and put it in his pocket.

  Ye Chengyang also grabbed a handful with his small hands.

  The hands of the two are really small, a small handful, really a small handful, and they can count a few.

But, it’s almost time for dinner now, just try a few, otherwise give them all, they don’t have enough to eat, although he still has a big bag in his other pocket, but if he gets angry, children should eat less, um ... adults eat more.

  Ye Yaodong handed the paper bag left by the two little ones to the cheerful old lady.

   "Put a little in your pocket, and chew it while listening to the show when you have nothing to do. It's very fragrant."

   "Just feed them..."

   “I still have…” in my pocket

  Ye Yaodong touched his pocket and looked left and right, but he didn't see Ye Chenghai and the others. It was a bit rare. In the past, these children basically gathered together to play after school.

   "What about you, Brother Ahai?"

   "They went to the beach to dig quacks to pick up crabs, mother won't let us go, let me reflect on it."

  Forget it, no need to divide.

  Lin Xiuqing just ran to the door to take a look when she heard the sound, and then continued to go back to cooking with the spatula, and now she freed her hand and ran out after the cooking.

  Watching Father Ye move the dried fish into the yard bag by bag, she was still surprised: "Why are there so many left? Didn't they sell it? Didn't the troops want it?"

   "I only want 300 catties first. If I want more later, I will call you. You should also pay attention to it. If I am not at home when I go to sea, you can answer the phone and write it down for me."

   "Hey, okay, so you came back after selling out without setting up a stall?"

"It's been on display for a while, but after the early morning peak period, it's not easy to sell. I only sold one bag, so there's no need to continue to put it on. I'll come back early today. I may be going to sea at night. The wind is not strong today. , it should be fine on the sea."

   "Oh, it's better to come back early to rest, and go to sea after recharging your energy."

"Um."

  Father Ye moved the few bags of dried fish that he had just unloaded into the yard, and told him, "Remember to move it into the house later..."

   As soon as Father Ye's voice fell, everyone heard voices coming from the gate of the courtyard, and dogs barking.

   "The bags you just brought in were dried fish?"

   "If you can't sell it, will you pull it back?" It was the sisters-in-law of the neighbors who came over curiously.

   "Huh? Yes, those were not sold out, so I brought them back again."

  His words were flawless.

   "Hey, I knew we wouldn't stay here today. Seeing that your house has exposed so much, I thought I could sell it for more money."

   "Yes, today our family also left hundreds of catties of frogfish back. I heard that it will be more expensive to dry and sell for more money. Oh, I knew it couldn't be sold, so I took it directly to the dock."

   "Kill all kill..."

  Ye Yaodong was dumbfounded. He hadn’t been selling for two days, and these people started to follow suit. I don’t know if the village has already started to spread that he has made a lot of money again.

  He didn't explain, anyway, it will take several days for them to dry, who knows if the troops want it? If you want it, you can just accept it from the folks.

  A sister-in-law asked persistently, "Are you drying all the dried fish here? Or did you sell some?"

  Ye Yaodong said honestly: "I sold some, these are leftovers from today's sale."

   "Hey! There are so many left, so I guess I didn't sell a few catties today? It's not enough for the fare..."

   "You've been paid a thousand dollars, and I don't know who said that you made a lot of money drying dried fish recently..."

   "So it's all rumors... I'm so mad..."

   There is a high probability that there will be no more at night, so don't wait, go to sleep!
