"Well, if you just want to form a partnership, that's fine. Anyway, let's ask first about this year's prices in the near future. I heard that the prices of everything have increased this year, and all these building materials have increased."

"Let's ask a few more questions, we're not in a hurry anyway."

"Okay, anyway, just reach a preliminary consensus and we can discuss the rest later after we find out a good price."

Both of them nodded happily.

"You have experience, you can decide what to do, and we will listen to you."

"Yes, you often come and go to the county and provincial capitals. Once you become more familiar with it, you can take care of it yourself. After all, we will discuss it later."

"good."

"It's still early, do you want my mother to cook two dishes..."

Ye Yaodong waved his hand quickly, "Forget it, you are going to sea at night, so you won't drink anymore, just chat for a while."

"You seem to have rested at home for a long time this time? It seems that your boat has been parked in the middle of the sea and you have not gone out."

"Well, we encountered troubles one after another, and the old man at home felt that it was not peaceful outside. He asked us to wait for the Harvest to go to sea together, and not to go out alone. Anyway, we made a lot of money during this period, so we should rest for a few more days. There are also many things at home.

To do.”

"Yes, I heard that your family was also building tombs there during this period..."

The three of them sat there and chatted casually for half an hour before going back their separate ways.

Ye Yaodong also told them that he would go to sea tomorrow evening or tomorrow night. He would pass through several places and inquire about the shipyard.

After you find out more about it, call them to discuss it together.

Part of his mind was also thinking that maybe after the jellyfish earn money next month, they might be able to be ruthless enough to get one each.

Anyway, it doesn’t take more than a few months. You can also take a look after asking.

He hummed a song and walked slowly along the path. The chirping of insects and frogs kept ringing all the way. He was still thinking about catching a few fireflies and looked around, but they were not everywhere. It was not midsummer yet, and fireflies were still relatively rare.

I walked back to the path I just met, and saw a few fireflies flying over the grass.

He looked carefully at the haystack and saw no cow dung before stepping in with confidence.

Fireflies don't fly very fast, but they are very easy to catch. Just be patient and put your hands together and grab them casually, and you can get them in the palm of your hand.

Worried about not having anything to pack, he even pulled out the hem of his clothes and wrapped them up temporarily.

After catching three in a row, he let go of the two or three scattered ones that were still flying.

At the bulge at the hem of his clothes, there were already three spots of light that suddenly turned left and right. Even though he was wearing white clothes, the spots of light could still shine through.

Not to mention the child, he was very happy when he saw three fireflies caught.

A man is a boy until he dies.

By the time he returned home happily, Lin Xiuqing had already put both children to bed and played.

"Aqing, do you have a thinner cloth bag?"

"What are you doing? There is a small piece of fabric that is really cool."

He turned off the light casually, and the two little girls screamed happily, "The power is out..."

"It's not that the battery is out, it's because I turned it off. Look, it's sparkling and bright~"

"Wow~Liangliang~Liangliang~"

"Liangliang~Liangliang~"

The two little girls were so happy that they clapped their hands and jumped up and down on the bed.

Happiness is so simple. When they are happy, adults are also happy when they see it.

Lin Xiuqing laughed, "There are fireflies so soon, and you still want to catch this child's things back."

"I just happened to see it, so I grabbed two and brought them back to coax them. You said they are for children, so children will definitely like them. Go get some transparent cloth. I will put a few fireflies in the end of the cloth. You can take it as you like.

Tie up the mouth with a rope and let them play with it."

"I'll turn on the lights first."

The room suddenly became bright again, but the two children were unhappy.

"No more? Where's the bright one?"

"Here."

Ye Yaodong sat by the bed and pointed out the hem of his clothes to them. The two little girls immediately ran to him and poked the bulge on his clothes, and the sweet and crisp sound came out again.

"Here... wow..."

Two little girls sat in front of him, poking their little fingers wildly, their eyes widened, filled with curiosity and wonder.

"Give me a moment and I'll get you some cloth to cover it up."

Lin Xiuqing randomly picked up a piece of good-quality cloth, then asked Ye Yaodong to scoop the fireflies into the cloth again, wrap them up, tie the opening with a rope, and give them to them to play with.

The two little girls jumped and screamed happily.

"Stop jumping, the bed will collapse for you..."

"Turn off the lights...turn off the lights..."

Lin Xiuqing had no choice but to turn off the lights for them again.

Ye Yaodong saw the two of them playing with fireflies with their heads together, so he turned around and went out to take a bath.

Lin Xiuqing also came out, "What did your friend say?"

"They didn't have any objections. As soon as I said it, they immediately agreed. Then they told me to make up my mind and asked me to ask more questions. After I decided what to do, we could discuss the money."

"Then you still have to run up and down, in front and behind."

"It has to be me. I don't feel comfortable letting them go. They don't know anything and have no experience at all. After all, I have ordered several ships and know where the shipyard gate opens."

"Then it's up to you."

"Um."

Two little girls were playing with fireflies in the house, chattering constantly, accompanied by laughter like silver bells from time to time.

Lin Xiuqing also went into the room to watch them, lest the lights were turned off and they jumped on the bed and fell off.

A very ordinary firefly can make two people happy all night long, even reluctant to lie down and sleep.

It was Ye Yaodong who lowered the mosquito net, untied the rope, let the fireflies fly freely above the bed, and coaxed them to say that they could see more clearly when they lay down, so they were willing to lie down.

He also coaxed the fireflies to sleep with them, so they opened and closed their eyes to look like they were asleep.

"When I wake up tomorrow, if I can't find it, I'll probably make trouble again."

"Then tell them it won't light up during the day, but it will light up at night. How can they remember it at such a young age? They will forget it at night."

"Go to sleep, you have to take back the things from the sea tomorrow."

"Um."

Not only the things at sea, he also arranged to rent out the boat the next day, and also went up to the mountain to do the final finishing work of the cemetery with his father.

Finally, while it was still dark, we took the boat to refuel and add ice, and then came back with the Harvest, anchored at sea, and then followed the villagers at night to go out to sea at high tide.

On summer nights, the sea breeze does not carry the residual heat like it does during the day, but instead brings a coolness to the heart, with a light salty and moist breath. The sea breeze blows against the face and carries away the heat on the body, leaving only the coolness.

He was only wearing a vest, and his skin was erect.

At this time, there were already several flashlights shining brightly outside the pier. As they got closer and closer to the pier, the noise became clearer and clearer, and the silence of the night was also broken.

Everyone came out against the tide, so there seemed to be quite a lot of people on the pier at the moment.

The boatmen were all waiting there in advance. As soon as they arrived, they could just get on any of their own boats and they could be transferred to the big ship easily.

The first time after boarding the ship, they checked the machines and packed things.

Although it was already inspected yesterday when we boarded the ship to refuel, it still needs to be inspected routinely before departure.

The fishing boats on the shore seemed to be waking up from their slumber. One after another, fishing boats slowly sailed away from the shore, breaking the calmness of the sea and causing ripples to spread into the distance.

These fishing boats were of different sizes and shapes, like a fleet ready to go, drawing firm tracks on the dark sea, some from their village and some from the neighboring village.

After Father Ye checked the machine, he continued burning talisman paper.

"I don't know if my parents burned some yellow paper to get rid of bad luck. Even the propeller was broken last time..."

"They can do it all."

Ye Yaodong thought to himself that this might not work. If it really worked, he would not go to sea on the previous trip and would only rest and adjust.

After Father Ye finished his ritual, he shouted, "Okay, okay, no problem, ready to go."

The moonlight was bright and weak, and the hull of the ship glowed with a faint silvery glow under the moonlight. The bow of the ship cut through the waves, stirring up waves.

The lights on the passing fishing boats illuminated the busy figures of the fishermen.

They are either focusing on steering the wheel, staring ahead with bright eyes, controlling the direction of the ship; or they are skillfully arranging the fishing nets, their faces flickering under the light, reflecting their persistence and tenacity in life.

As the fishing boat gets further and further away, the lights gradually merge into the boundless darkness, leaving only faint light and shadow.
