Chapter 1326 Departure(2/3)
Lin Xiuqing also touched his face and said, "Well, then you will have to work hard for a few more years."
"We have worked hard together for several years."
"Go to bed early, we have to go to sea tomorrow morning."
"Fortunately, we are going to sea in the morning anyway, so don't get up in the middle of the night..."
Ye Yaodong turned over and went to sea tomorrow. If nothing unexpected happened, he would not be back until early next month.
Lin Xiuqing also knew it and felt sorry for him.
When he got up early the next morning, the whole family was already there except the children.
His father didn't have to go to sea today, but he came over with his mother to have a look.
After breakfast, they first went to Mazu Temple to offer incense, and met a lot of people during the process.
Originally, today was the day that Ocean 1 was scheduled to go out to sea, but later he thought that he might as well discuss with everyone and move several ships together to go out to sea today and set off together. Anyway, it was a good day.
With his current status, he also has the right to speak. If there is nothing wrong with what he says, everyone will generally agree with it.
After the workers arrived, they all waited at the workshop to set off. Most of them went to Mazu Temple to offer incense and worship.
After waiting for time, Ye Yaodong took them each to the corresponding ship and gave them a few more instructions.
Father Ye was worried that Ye Yaodong was young and would not be able to perform rituals, so he also boarded the boat with him. Then he took a pile of yellow paper and walked back and forth, and took turns throwing the sacrifices prepared in advance along the fishing boat into the sea.
.
Yesterday, Ye Yaodong drove the Ocean 1 back to the sea in advance because of the transportation of supplies. However, because of the deep water, it stopped far away, in the middle of the sea.
You can't see it at all from your doorstep, you can only see it a little bit when you come out of the pier.
He allowed his father to arrange the ritual for him to go to sea, and he first took people to check everywhere and unlocked what should be unlocked.
After his father was done with his work, they went to burn incense in front of the enshrined statue of Mazu, and then invited the statue of Mazu back to the cabin.
"Dongzi, I'm not going with you this time. Can you do that? How about we change?"
"No, it can be done. This boat is ahead. You don't have to worry too much. Just go back to the shore. After finishing the work, it's time for me to set off. I can't keep Uncle Zhao waiting for too long."
"Then be careful. Fortunately, you have grown a lot in the past few years. You didn't go away for too long this time. If anything goes wrong, just come back. I also told Lao Zhao to take more care of you.
If you have any issues or questions, please ask others."
"I know."
His father had frequent contacts with Zhao Chengzhou during this period. He asked Uncle Jingye to invite people in every three days to have a drink and build a good relationship. During the Chinese New Year, he even specially gave them a New Year gift.
"With you acting like this now, I'm somewhat relieved. Then I'll get off the ship?"
"Um."
Father Ye turned his head three times with each step, and then hesitated when he was about to step off the boat, "You really don't need me?"
Ye Yaodong was ready to go to the helm, but he could only shake his head when asked by his father, "No need for you, just stay at home and go out to collect the goods the next day, then go to the city to dock and weigh the goods to Ah Cai.
"
"All right."
Father Ye climbed out of the boat and returned to the boat.
But he didn't sail away immediately. Instead, he waited on the boat and watched his boat move.
The other six boats also lifted anchor one after another and slowly headed towards the sea.
When the six ships were moving forward, Ocean One also turned its bow and headed towards the sea.
In no time, there were more than six boats and they were at the front.
The six boats behind also started to speed up.
Father Ye stood on the boat and sighed with emotion as he watched several long boats rushing towards the sea together.
"These children have really grown up and can support themselves..."
"I'm getting old..."
"You have to watch the young people do it..."
After several boats were no longer visible, Ye's father drove the boat towards another boat on the sea, which was Pei's father's boat.
The Harvest has been given to A Guang since the new year. Today, when we go to sea, Father Pei also came out to see her off.
Father Ye has no objection to Father Pei, not to mention that they are not only in-laws, but also old acquaintances for many years.
He felt that even for the sake of his son-in-law, he had to interact more with Father Pei to avoid being confused by the wind on his pillow.
Anyway, he won't have to be at sea every day, and Lao Pei won't have to go to sea. The two of them can meet up to have more drinks and chat.
And he was honest and upright. Mother Ye couldn't blame him for drinking every other day. He drank the wine with good reason!
It is to help the son-in-law look after his biological father and not get confused.
Ye's mother had to support her and stop scolding her.
"The in-laws don't need to go out to sea? Can A Dong alone drive such a big boat?" Pei's father asked doubtfully.
Father Ye smiled and said, "Yes, the child has grown up and can make decisions. He can do everything better than me, so I don't need to keep an eye on him anymore."
"Although Adong is very capable, such a big ship can go far, so you can rest assured..."
"There's nothing to worry about. I'm not as familiar with this ship as he is. He has already left the army, and I also told my friends to take care of it. I probably won't be of much use with my old bones, so I can only do it for him.
Watch more at home."
"You're quite open-minded."
"Is there anything unimaginable about this? In the past few years, he has been working hard there. I only helped when it was time to help. In fact, the most important thing is that he dares to do it and fight hard."
Lao Pei nodded and said nothing more.
"It will be even better if you continue. You can retire at home directly. You don't have to go to sea. You can just hold your children and count money at home. Your life will be comfortable."
"Haha, you have to count the money there. You still have to do what you have to do. There is also a lot of work in the fields. You have to go out to collect the goods every day. You have to be busy at the same time."
"That's at least better than being at sea. Now the sea is left to the children, and we are getting old. From now on, it's all about the young people."
"Yes, from now on the world will be dominated by young people, and we are getting old."
"Haha, you are getting stronger with age..."
"Haha, let's go back and talk. The sea is not the place to talk."
"Go back first and sit at home later..."
Father Ye and Father Pei drove a boat back to the dock first.
Ye Yaodong drove the big boat at the front, high-spirited and turned his head to look at the six boats behind him from time to time.
This was because he deliberately slowed down, otherwise if he rushed out, those ships would not be able to catch up.
And they are also making fun of me in small channels...
"Dongzi, your boat is so handsome..."
"You just rushed out, and the white water on both sides seemed to have opened a path, and you couldn't even close it."
"I just drove past me, and the comparison really pales in comparison."
"When will we be able to sail on such a big ship? Hahaha..."
"Stop dreaming, it's only a hundred thousand, even if you sell your whole family, it won't be enough."
"Not only is it not enough, even if you sell your whole family together, you can't make it up..."
At first glance, these words were spoken by a harmful friend.
Ye Yaodong smiled and said: "Your new ship has just been launched, and you are thinking of changing the ship again?"
"Haha, of course you have to have a dream."
"If you think about it, you can still think about it. Maybe you will get rich this year. If you get rich for a few years in a row, it will probably be enough. I can't compare with you, but you can think about it first."
"Hahaha, there will always be hope. Bless us to make a lot of money every year."
"Dongzi, how far do you have to sail your boat?"
"The deep sea is probably a little further than yours. It doesn't seem to go to the high seas. Other people's boats are only about 30 meters long, and they are not as big as mine."
"Then I'm not allowed to follow your lead?"
"Shit, they are all old people. It's good if they don't look down on me as a young boy. They follow my lead. Don't even think about it."
"That's not certain. Your reputation may have spread throughout the fishermen's circles in the town. At your age, you can afford such a big boat. They all have to weigh it."
"Who knows? Besides, I'll take a closer look after getting in touch. I met two ship bosses some time ago. Their ships are very complicated. There are seven or eight people on one ship working together, and the others are all relatives."
"So this is what you are capable of. Just hearing that this boat belongs to you alone will make them salute you."
"Stop flattering me..."
While everyone was driving towards the town, they were discussing the matter.
To be continued...
