They are all bought from the city."

"Well, last time I came back from Zhejiang Province, I only gave them special products. The New Year's gift should be thicker. I still have a lot of imported cigarettes at home. When I gave the New Year's gift, I also added two packs of imported cigarettes. Domestic ones will be added later.

Add one."

"So thick..."

"I'm not at home, so it's all down to the village cadres to take care of me, so I need to be more generous."

"Okay, tomorrow you go buy them and deliver them in person, and chat with them by the way. Tomorrow is also the 21st of the twelfth lunar month, so it's not too early or too late."

"Um."

While the two couples were talking and organizing, the three children in the house also distributed the things they bought.

It is said to be distributed, but actually it will be shared when the time comes to play.

After the couple returned to their room, they kicked the children out. They got up before dawn in the early morning and didn't come back until after dark. After walking for a day, they were already exhausted, so they just wanted to lie down in bed and rest.

Ye Yaodong was even more tired. He had been carrying his child all the way. After returning to the house, he just collapsed on the bed and didn't want to move.

Ye Chengyang shouted excitedly outside and took a nap on the boat. He was now full of energy and wanted to tell everyone that he had gone to the city.

Lin Xiuqing just rested briefly and then got up again. She hadn't been there all day, and she didn't know what was going on in the workshop. She couldn't let go and just lay down.

I have to go and take a look at the situation. By the way, I want to ask Dongqing about the quantity that was weighed today and collect the list so that I can settle the bill with Ah Cai.

As the New Year approaches, all the accounts that need to be settled need to be settled.

Ye Yaodong felt comfortable. He didn't care about it for more than half a year, and he didn't care about it much after he came back. He could lie down with peace of mind.

However, he didn't care about the workshop, but he was also very busy with outside matters.

Early the next morning, he went to the town to buy cigarettes and wine. Then he prepared each item one by one, put it in a basket, and covered it with a red cloth.

After lunch, we would take turns sending them to the homes of village cadres, where we could chat and talk.

This left me busy for another two days.

Then he took the time to call Fang Jingfu and agreed to go to Wenzhou to reconcile the accounts on the 25th day of the lunar calendar.

By the way, he checked out the specialties from his area and brought gifts bought in the market. When the time was approaching, he set off a day early.

He didn't take his father with him on this trip. His father couldn't show off enough in the village, so he probably didn't bother to make a trip. He only took the workers on the boat and set off at night.

After waiting, I can still have time to tidy up the house, have a good sleep, and then go find Fang Jingfu the next day.

Fang Jingfu saw that he came on time and brought a bunch of New Year's gifts, so he accepted them without any surprise. Anyway, he also prepared a New Year's gift in return.

The accounts in their factory were checked by a few specialized accountants. Now that the factory's efficiency has expanded and the accounts have become larger, it is troublesome to check. Ye Yaodong's own educational level is just out of illiteracy.

If you really put the accounts in front of him and show him, he wouldn't know where to start.

So he just flipped it over a few times, and then started talking about Huanglong.

"You know, I don't have much education. These accounts are so thick that I may not be able to understand them even if I look at them for a year. So you just need to tell me how much money I can share."

"Since I have partnered with you, I must completely trust you, and I have taken advantage of myself."

Fang Jingfu said with a smile: "You really trust me, why don't you pretend to be careful and watch carefully."

"It doesn't make much sense whether you're pretending or not. It's better to be honest and honest."

"Okay, let's be honest. It is true that we have made a lot of money this year, but this year is the initial stage. A small half of the profits will be given away, and there are also expenses for maintaining various meals for all parties. When it stabilizes next year, we won't need so much.

And because the factory is in production, many of the bills won’t be collected until after the year, and I have to set aside money to pay for materials. In a few days, I have to pay a large sum of workers’ wages. So I only plan to use 100,000 to distribute.”

Ye Yaodong nodded and had no objection at all. Just take it if you have the money. Anyway, it was picked up for free and it was earned.

"Okay, then I'll share 20,000."

"Happy, just do it!"

"That's right, the factory depends on you."

"Not necessarily. You also helped introduce the business, and part of the commission will be calculated separately for you."

"That's good, I can have more."

"Well, when my brother comes later, we will get the dividends together, have dinner together in the evening, and you can stay a few more days..."

"I'll stay for two days at most. It's almost the end of the year, and my family is very busy. There are a lot of things, a lot of business, and leadership relationships to maintain."

"You can also invite the leaders of the Coast Guard over tonight. Let's get to know each other and get familiar with each other. There will be a lot of people at night, so I have reserved a table in advance."

"Are you so polite? When I go over to give Director Zeng a New Year's gift later, I'll give him a quick reminder. I don't know if he's free, so I don't dare to agree to it."

"Well, try your best."

Ye Yaodong chatted with him again, and it wasn't until his brother arrived that they asked the finance department to take the dividends and record them together.

After receiving the dividends, they exchanged some pleasantries, and the three of them had a meal together at noon before he went back.

Then he sent the newly prepared New Year's gift to Zeng Weimin without stopping, and invited him to dinner in the evening, conveying Fang Jinfu's intention.

Zeng Weimin readily agreed.

Ye Yaodong also breathed a sigh of relief. It was the best he could do. He happened to introduce the person to Fang Jingfu. He always knew that he knew a leader, but Fang Jingfu had never met him.

Tonight is also an opportunity for them to get to know each other.

For two consecutive days, Ye Yaodong was called by Fang Jingfu to attend various dinner parties.

I originally planned to go back on the third day of the lunar calendar, the 27th, but I was persuaded to stay and had an extra day of dinner.

Later, he said that he had to go back, he had to work at the factory over there, and the workers had to take a holiday, so Fang Jingfu let him go.

During the few days in Vancouver, he did not forget to report to the Fisheries Bureau in his spare time, and also gave a special product to others there.

It is not comparable to the annual gifts given to Fang Jingfu and Zeng Weimin, but it is still a small gesture.

After Ye Yaodong was able to escape, he immediately sailed back on the morning of the 28th.

If he hadn't been too drunk the night before and couldn't move, and the workers didn't dare to take any initiative, he would have sailed away overnight without waiting until the next morning.

When he got home, it was already evening, and everything in the workshop was dark. It was obvious at a glance that the workers had already gone on holiday.

When Lin Xiuqing saw him coming back, she complained that he had been away for so many days and didn't call back to say anything.

"We agreed to go there for two days and then come back after settling the accounts. We stayed for so many days, and the day after tomorrow is New Year's Eve. There are a lot of things, and you don't know how to come back to help."

"Didn't I leave my dad to help at home? I didn't know I would stay for so many days. I originally wanted to come back early, but Fang Jingfu kept preventing me from coming back. Otherwise, I should have arrived home yesterday at the latest."

"You smell of cigarettes and alcohol all over your body. How much alcohol did you drink there? It's still lingering after so many days."

"Don't mention it. I haven't been awake even one night since I went there. I'm afraid of drinking. I have to take a shower first. I haven't taken a shower in many days. The smell of cigarette smoke is terrible. Help me get a basin of hot water. I'll go first.

Go to your room and take off your clothes, and you can sort out your things later."

"I washed it today, and I have to wash it on New Year's Eve, so don't be lazy..." Lin Xiuqing read.

Because she knew that Ye Yaodong always calculated the number of days to take a shower. If he came back the day before yesterday or yesterday, the interval would be about three days, so it would be just right to take a shower on New Year's Eve.

Now that there is a gap of two days, he may be lazy and needs to be reminded.

Ye Yaodong took out the money he brought back and put it on the bed alone before taking off his clothes and waiting for hot water.

When Lin Xiuqing came in with hot water, he told her about the cents and asked her about the workshop in the past two days.

"The workers' wages were paid to them, and everyone who persisted until today was also given a red envelope and a bundle of sugar cane."

"Remember to pay wages to the workers on the ship tomorrow, so I'll leave them alone. Have you all taken them back from the city?"

"Yes, I asked my father to pick them up today. By the way, I asked him to check the factories in the city and sort them out. You really know that it was scheduled for the workers to have a holiday today, but you still delayed coming back until today..."
