"Ye Chenghu, Ye Chenghu, come out, take out the toys and share them. Don't take them all to yourself. You have to share them between three people, or I won't bring them to you next time."

Lin Xiuqing was beside her with a headache. "At night, I cry one way or the other, so I can be quiet during the day."

Seeing that there was no movement in the room, Ye Yaodong took Ye Chengyang back to the room, and then began to distribute toys to the three children, do some ideological work for them, and tell them which toys were fun.

We have to give them a fair share, at least the two older ones should be fairer, otherwise they will start fighting again in a few minutes, and the younger one is not very sensible yet, so he can still fool him.

Let them take turns to choose and divide them as fairly as possible, so that the three of them can be satisfied. But in the final analysis, Ye Xiaoxi is the one who suffers the most because she is young and ignorant.

After dealing with the big issue of dividing toys among the three children, he took some time to go outside to talk to Lin Xiuqing. It happened that there was no one in the main room, only the two of them, so he told her everything that happened outside during this period.

.

He even told her about Fang Jingfu's desire to join the lighter gang, and by the way, he also told her that he also wanted to join the gang.

"I think it can be done. Anyway, we just keep our money. We can invest some of it. But what happened before he came back, I think his character should be okay."

In fact, the time of acquaintance was too short, otherwise he would not be so hesitant.

Lin Xiuqing looked confused after hearing this, "Can you believe it? We've only known each other for a few days, and you're going to spend tens of thousands to invest in someone else. Will it be wasted? Otherwise, you should just buy a boat."

Ye Yaodong was delighted, "I told you before that I wanted to buy a boat, and I was so talkative, but now you're begging me to buy it?"

"That's different. You have to spend tens of thousands of dollars to invest in someone else's workshop. The person is not there yet. The key is that you haven't known them for a long time. I always feel uneasy. If that's the case, then I'm not as good as you.

Use the money to buy boats, you can buy a bunch of them, at least you can still see them."

"It's not like this. When you invest, no one is there, you don't see anything, and you don't know if you will be cheated. Isn't what happened to Brother Ahong in the past two years a lesson? None of my relatives can be trusted.

An outsider I’ve only known for a few days…”

Ye Yaodong raised his eyebrows and said, "You are wrong. Brother Hong is invisible and intangible. He only relies on his mouth to deceive relatives and friends, but strangers cannot deceive him. And this lighter workshop is in our house. Look,

It’s something that can be seen. If we form a partnership like this, we will definitely have to hire someone to keep accounts, and we will have to send one of our own people to do the work.”

"Sometimes cooperation without relatives is more sustainable, and the fear is that relatives will get involved. Fang Jingfu is a talkative person, which means he is good at socializing. The key is that he still has connections in the local area. He will definitely become bigger and stronger.

of."

"It doesn't matter whether we will be kicked out in the future. Anyway, if we invest in the early stage, we will definitely not be afraid. By the way, we can still sell the goods and make a little money here. What is produced in our own workshop is not called speculation."

"Ah yes!"

Lin Xiuqing suddenly thought of something, and took two quick steps to him while holding the spatula, "The person who was in his thirties or forties was reported, there can't be more than a few? In our workshop, when the fish is dried and the fish sauce is fermented,

, sometimes we need so many people, will it happen then..."

"No, we are in the village, and the village committee is on top. If we come to check, the village committee will also speak for us. And ours is not long-term. We are all temporarily called here to help, and we will ask for it on a regular basis.

Those are not more than the number of people. The ship will be the ship, and the workshop will be the workshop, so don’t worry."

Hearing what he said, she felt relieved.

I just heard him say that he was arrested because the lighter workshop exceeded the number of people, and my heart was already pounding, but the old lady changed the subject.

"That's fine. If you say it's fine, then it should be fine."

"Yeah. So I think it's feasible to invest in lighters. Let's give it a try with tens of thousands of dollars."

Lin Xiuqing was confused, "Is it really possible? I don't understand this either. I just worry that no one is there to watch. I don't know anything. The accounts are also done by others."

"Then if I invest in it, I will definitely have to hire someone to do the accounting. It's not that easy to make fake accounts. The incoming and outgoing goods have to be correct. When the time comes, the boy at home will bring someone over to do the work."

"Wait until you sell the lighters you have first?"

"That's what I thought. I wasn't in such a hurry originally. Something happened. I'll come back early and sell the goods first. Now I'm just letting you know in advance, otherwise you have to say I'll kill it first and tell you later."

"You can't do it until you kill it first. The money is in my hand." Lin Xiuqing glanced at him, walked to the stove, and continued cooking.

"Yes, yes, you have to apply to the head of the family, and I can only do it if approved."

"That lighter only costs more than one yuan, but it can be sold for 8 yuan. Isn't this too profitable?"

"Youyi stores sell them for a few hundred yuan, but they are branded and more beautiful than this one. What things are hard to sell these days, and what things are not profitable? They are all huge profits."

"You'd better sell those 2,000 items first. There are so many, and I don't know how long it will take to sell them."

"I'll take him to the city tomorrow."

She nodded and didn't say anything. Anyway, she had already bought it, so let's wait until it was sold out, not to mention the huge profits. She was also looking forward to seeing how much money she could make when it was sold out.

Ye Yaodong took a pair of chopsticks and looked at the freshly fried vegetables. He also poured himself a glass of wine and drank and ate at the same time. It was time to eat again. It was impossible to ask him to lie down and sleep. There was no need to sleep at night now.

, and he didn’t even finish asking.

"Have you not been at home during this period? Did anything happen in the village? Before I left, wasn't that group of people in that town making trouble in two nearby villages?"

Lin Xiuqing suddenly became excited again and stopped putting the food in the pot.

"Don't tell me. This incident has caused a lot of trouble after you left. People have died. Several people have died. It hasn't completely subsided yet."

Ye Yaodong paused for a moment when he picked up the chopsticks, extremely surprised.

"One of the people here is the brother-in-law of your friend Azheng, and the other is a relative of Uncle Zheng. On the second day after you left, a large group of people came from the town to go to Dongqiao Village and Daqingshan Village.

At that time, I even went to the entrance of the village to take a look, and there were really hundreds of people there, more than when I came to our village to ask for your help."

"I also went to see it with everyone. That large group of people was divided into two groups. One group went to Dongqiao Village and the other group went to Daqingshan Village. The two groups started fighting in two villages."

"Fortunately, as soon as they started fighting, the border guard station in the town behind was dispatched. No one was killed, but several were seriously injured. It is estimated that during that time, a lot of people were sentenced to death outside, and the families of those people probably

The commotion lasted for a long time, and the border guards were keeping an eye on it, so they were able to react so quickly."

"However, because of the collective riot, there were too many people, and there was no way to arrest them all. If there were no dead people, they could only let the respective village cadres negotiate and appease them, and the troops would help to intimidate them."

"The commotion continued for two more days. Azheng's brother-in-law couldn't bear it anymore and handed over the boat. After he handed over the boat, the group of people in the town rioted again. Everyone who had an accident at home said that the boat was

No one among them would give in to each other, and then they started fighting among themselves."

"At that time, a large group of people were led to the beach to identify the boat, and then because of the quarrel and fighting, many people fell into the sea. This was considered a good thing, they just fell into the water. Some people were pushed and fell on the shore.

On the reef, the head was bleeding a lot, and two more people were killed. Because it was on the shore, they were fished out directly, but it was too late to send them to the hospital."

"Our rocks are covered with all kinds of shells, which are very sharp. Not to mention falling on them, if you accidentally scratch them with your hands, you will get a cut. If you hit your head on them, you will get several cuts. It will cause chaos again.

Who cares if it falls?"

Listening to her description, Ye Yaodong could imagine the tragic scene, with a large group of people beating him to death.

It's really miserable.

The people are gone, the money is gone, and there is hope of a boat in front of me, so I will try to fight for it no matter what.

"Also, there were troops holding guns behind them. They fired several shots into the sky at the pier to calm down those who were fighting to death. However, just this fight also took away a bunch of people.

All tied up."

He frowned and said, "Are you always looking behind me?"

"No, it was too chaotic. I didn't dare to get close. Except for the first day when I followed them to take a look, I just listened to what others said and didn't dare to get close. The fight on the pier was the only one in the village.

The man went to take a look and came back and said it was too miserable."

"Then, Uncle Zheng's relatives heard about the commotion on the pier over there, and they were scared. They wanted to hand over the boat the next day. But early in the morning, an old lady went directly to the door of Uncle Zheng's relatives' house and drank pesticide.

I drank it to death immediately, and everyone was scared to death."

"It was very noisy at that time. There were a lot of people coming and going every day, and the gunshots from the troops rang out frequently every day. It was so chaotic.

Ye Yaodong was shocked, "Drinking pesticides in front of Uncle Zheng's relatives' house?"

"Yes, I heard that her grandson died and her son was sentenced. She won't be able to see her until she dies of old age. Another son died yesterday, so she doesn't live anymore."

Lin Xiuqing couldn't help but sigh when she talked about it. That period was truly the most tragic time for several villages.

"Fortunately, the boat we bought was from the local area, and everyone knew it. At that time, these people came to our door and just begged you for help. Fortunately, we handed it over to the border control station."

Ye Yaodong felt too miserable when he heard this. "When they came to ask us for help in the morning, they still had hope, so their mood was pretty good. Later, the border defense station shattered their hopes. When they heard about the ship, they took it again.

I took this as a life-saving straw, and I couldn’t control my emotions at that time.”

"Who says it's not the case? There was hope at first, but it all came to nothing. The life-saving straw is gone. It's easier to be incited when you're emotionally unstable."

"Then what?"

"Later, his relatives went bankrupt again, and there was nothing they could do if they died on the doorstep of their home. Although it was unlucky, the person was already dead, and he still died on the doorstep of his own home, so he was still being blamed. The village cadres of his village helped talk to the old man's family.

After some negotiation, we paid a sum of money and the family moved out the next day."

"Moved?"

"Yes, with such a commotion, he is also afraid that someone will imitate him, and another old man will drink pesticide at his door. After all, some old people really don't have a few years to live, and they will die by taking the opportunity, and they can still give money to their families.

The child wants a compensation so that the family can live on."

Ye Yaodong was speechless. This was really possible.

"Where did you move to? My family is all there."

"I heard that I have moved back to my hometown in the mountains. I went to the mountains to escape the limelight, but I haven't come back yet."

"What happened next? How to solve it? Where are the two boats?"

"The two boats were taken over by the Border Guard and driven away. On the second day after the fight at the pier, the old man drank pesticide again. The Border Guard immediately sent people with guns to guard the entrances of the two villages that day, and then took the two boats away.
