"This is good." The old lady's big rough hands reached into the mung beans, stirred and touched them back and forth, and her old face smiled brightly. "Bring them all out and bring them over to him in a few days."

"A Dong hates eating rice mixed with all these miscellaneous things at home and always eats white rice. That's why there are so many beans and sweet potato shreds left. Now that it's better, he has to eat with everyone when he goes out."

The old lady also sighed, "Well, when you are away from home, how can you be as comfortable as at home? Of course you have to eat and drink like everyone else, but there are so many people, there is nothing you can do, you have to save some rations. People in the village are now the same

It’s something he eats mixed in together, which means he doesn’t like rice mixed with various things, so we have been eating rice since we moved to a new house.”

"Well, of course they have to be mixed together and eaten together, otherwise no amount of food will be enough to eat. We will make up for it when we get back."

There are so many people on this trip, and they bring a lot of supplies. We focus on one province, and we don't try to buy what we can carry from home. After all, the daily consumption of the 30th person is huge.

During the few days they were busy at work, villagers kept coming to ask when they would set out.

Every time at this time, Ye Yaodong would pass the blame and ask them to ask A Guang directly, saying that he also obeyed A Guang's instructions and would leave whenever he was told.

However, the factory started working at the same time as initially expected, with no change.

After discussion, they planned to set off three days earlier than the start time of the factory. After all, it took more than ten hours to sail, and they had to arrange accommodation when they got there. This was quite troublesome. They had to reserve at least two days to get out, and then

Take another day off or it depends on the situation.

Those in the village who were determined to follow him had not gone to sea in the past two days and were all at home preparing what they wanted to take with them.

After Ye Yaodong spent two or three days sorting out the supplies, he called a barber to come to his door. Then he asked his father to call all the workers over and have everyone line up to have their heads shaved.

Although everyone had been mentally prepared for the shave, they were all pushing and shoving when it came time to shave. No one wanted to be the first. There were many villagers around watching the excitement.

Later, Father Ye sighed and sat down to shave first, then one after another, one after another.

At first there were some people who were not happy, but after everyone saw the bald heads coming out, a lot of people came along and started laughing along with them.

Everyone in the world has a herd mentality, and if everyone is the same, then it is not considered unique, but there is also a mentality of joining in the fun.

"Ah, it's quite cool, chilly..."

"I also feel like I've lost several pounds..."

"It's quite comfortable, and it doesn't feel hot anymore..."

"Your head is still very round, let me touch it..."

"Go away, shave yourself, touch yourself..."

Everyone who had their heads shaved felt as if they had discovered a new world. They couldn't help but keep stroking their shaved heads, and they didn't mind that they had little hair just after shaving.

And they didn't go home immediately to wash their hair. Instead, they continued to stand and watch other people shave their heads, wanting to see what other people looked like after shaving their heads.

Those who were laughed at just now will be laughed at again.

The villagers looked happily at the bald heads one after another.

"You might as well call the bald helpers, they are all bald."

"If we all go out on the street together, why don't we scare people to death?"

"Hahaha, for sure, we are the only ones in the village who are not afraid."

"It's so cool and comfortable..."

Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua were a little eager to try it out.

"Should we shave one too?"

"How about shaving one? Everyone is bald, and there are not many of us. What Dongzi said makes sense. Shaving your head will save you the trouble of washing your hair, and it will also save your hair from being wet and smelly every day..."

People who had shaved their heads also cheered, "Yes, yes, it feels so comfortable and cool after shaving your head. Do you want to shave it too? Keep it neat. When you go out, you will know that it is from our Baisha Village. It is easy to identify."

The villagers shouted: "Haha, you can't say you are from Baisha Village when you go out, otherwise your reputation will be ruined by you. They are all bald. What kind of village is this?"

"Hahaha, indeed...what kind of village does this have to have so many bald heads?"

"Then let's go out. I told people that those bastards from Haiqing Village had a fight with us before."

"Yes, yes, when we go out, let's tell people that we are from Haiqing Village, hahaha..."

"What a loss to you..."

"Come on, come on...I want to shave my head too..."

"I shave, I shave too. When I go out, I tell people that I am from Dongqiao Village..."

"Damn, what happened to you in Dongqiao Village?"

"Then I will tell people that I am Xishan Village..."

"I want to shave too. I said I am from Daqingshan Village..."

"You have a lot of enemies..."

"Hahaha……"

Everyone was booing for a while, and the people who went to sea were all shouting that they wanted to shave their heads. It seemed that it had become an honorable thing, and it felt a bit honorable not to be disliked.

After hearing about it, some people who came late also joined in and started making noise.

Some of the villagers who were watching were stroking their sweat-damp hair.

"It makes me want to shave my head. What's going on..."

Fortunately, Ye Yaodong felt that since there were so many people in his team, it would take him several hours to shave his hair, so he called the barber over after lunch. Anyway, there was a black grid awning on top of his door, so there was no need for lunch.

of being exposed to the sun.

"Now that I have my hair cut, when should we set off?"

"We will set off at 2 o'clock tomorrow night. When we get back, everyone should also prepare their luggage and other things to bring. Leave early and arrive early."

If it weren't for the fact that it was unsafe to sail alone, he wanted to set off early by himself after finishing his work yesterday, and go to the place in advance to arrange food and accommodation, so that the large group could settle down directly.

He hesitated, but now that it was coming, he felt that he had to go ahead and make arrangements.

Otherwise, he would be temporarily blinded, and it would be uncomfortable for dozens or hundreds of people to be stuck there. He didn't care about others, but the boatmen he hired had to be settled first.

So, while everyone was getting their hair cut, Ye Yaodong called Aguang and his father into the room to talk.

"I want to ride a motorcycle over there early tomorrow morning and set off early to finalize the renting of a house. Also, eating for the 30th person here is a big problem every day. I want to go to the local area early to find two cooks.

Auntie is responsible for breakfast, lunch and dinner every day, which can save a lot of trouble."

Aguang also nodded, "You're right. There are too many people. Cooking every day is a big project. Unlike other people, there are just a few of them. When everyone stays there to look after the house, they can cook the food by the way."

Already."

Father Ye hesitated, "Do you know the road? It takes more than ten hours to drive on a boat, and you can't get anywhere faster on a motorcycle. The roads are so bad, and they are all mountainous. You have to go around them. The key is to refuel on the road."

A question."

"That's true..."

Now, unlike in the past, there are gas stations everywhere, and refueling in the wilderness is indeed a problem.

A Guang said: "Let's go sail my new boat. If you plan to rent a house in advance, you can also set off together in advance. I also have to contact the factory in advance, and by the way, I also arrange the food and accommodation for the boatmen at home. It really has to be done in advance.

Make arrangements, otherwise, what will happen if such a large group of people cannot find a place to live temporarily?"

"That's alright. Let's drive your new ship there first. If you want to leave early to settle in, just come with us. Dad will stay at home and wait until early tomorrow night before taking everyone out."

Father Ye hesitated, "So you have to leave first tonight?"

"Yes, we will set off tonight and arrive during the day tomorrow. When we arrive, we will look for a house immediately. If we find a house, we will call back."

"You know the road..."

"Navigation in the sea depends on the helmsman, and I have to go back and forth several times. Not to mention a compass and a compass. If not, I still have a mouth. I can just go to a nearby town and ask people on the shore."

Ah Guang said: "Then let's talk to everyone while everyone is still there watching someone shave their heads."

Father Ye was still worried as usual. They were all still so young, their hair wasn't all that long, and they didn't look very reliable at ordinary times. Although they were quite in tune sometimes, they always felt a little worse at critical times.

"Why don't you let your father drive the Harvest and go there together? There will be more people in the two boats together, and you can rest assured. We have to go there anyway, so let your father take you to set off first. I'll wait at home.

The big troops will set off together from behind."

"That's okay too."

Neither of them had any objections. It was better this way. After all, last year the Harvest was the last boat left behind and they had to find it themselves.

"Then I'll call my dad over first to talk about it. By the way, I'll also call the other two brothers-in-law and friends over to talk about it in advance."

"Can."

It happened that a lot of people came here to join in the fun and saw that everyone had shaved their heads, and most of them were going to Zhejiang Province.

They talked about this again in the small circle beforehand. Of course, Pei's father was fine. For him, it didn't make much difference whether he went earlier or later. He could just go earlier, leaving the two young men alone.

He was not worried about the others sailing away.

Of course, Pei's father's thoughts are similar to those of Ye's father. They both feel that the two of them are not yet qualified for big responsibilities. In the eyes of the older generation, they are always a bit behind. When it is time to take the lead, they still have to be watched by the elders.

After Pei's father had no objection, the matter was settled directly and smoothly, while the others decided on their own whether to go with them to arrange food and accommodation in advance.

If there are not many people to bring, you can make arrangements after arriving at the place temporarily.

In fact, only their two boats have the most people, while the other boats only have one boat, and if they hire two or three workers, there is no need to make temporary arrangements.
