By the time Ye Yaodong ordered the fishing boat and came out of the shipyard, the sun had already set in the sky and was only a moment away from setting the horizon.

Its light gradually becomes softer, from blazing golden yellow to warm orange, rendering the entire sky.

As soon as they raised their eyes, they saw the sunset.

"The sun has set so quickly, and it feels like we didn't even chat for long."

It was rare for Director Wu to send him out in person. He was all smiles, "I was too immersed in chatting and my mind was not on time, so I felt that time passed quickly. If you ask me, it is still scary for young people. The first time I saw Comrade Ye

At that time, I felt that you were different from ordinary young people and would become something great."

"Look, in the past two years, let's not talk about how much business you have brought to me. Let's talk about yourself. Today, you added seven ships at once. I thought I heard it wrong. It's the younger generation who is more courageous now.

.”

"Director Wu, stop praising me. You've been praising me all afternoon. I'm blushing. Please pay attention to the delivery date and don't delay it."

Ye Yaodong was already getting sick from hearing this. When he came to the door in the afternoon, he thought he was here to push for a delivery date, but he didn't expect that he was going to order a ship. Seven ships were ordered at once, which almost frightened Director Wu.

Fortunately, it went smoothly, but he ordered 7 ships at once, directly extending the delivery time from the factory to the middle of 1986, and the old guy still wanted to increase the price.

He said that there was originally going to be a price increase during the Chinese New Year, but now he directly ordered so many ships, occupying the factory's production quota, and also allowed him to celebrate the Chinese New Year, so he couldn't raise the price even if he wanted to.

But he doesn't care whether he takes up the production quota or not. His original plan is to take up the quota.

Two days ago, his two brothers just ordered two, but they didn't increase the price. Just two days later, they want to increase his price. It doesn't make sense. Whoever increases it for him is not stupid.

After a few words, he came back and had no choice but to pay the original price, but he thought that if anyone else wanted to book a boat later, the minimum price would be 3,500.

I have to make up for the money I earned less from him from subsequent orders.

But there is a high probability that most people will have to go far away and go to the city to inquire. After all, their county is only close to the sea, and there must be deep water near the shipyard.

If he went to the shipyard in the city, the price would definitely be higher than in their small place. He had visited it before, but the delivery date was unclear.

Anyway, never mind him, as long as he has achieved his goal.

Director Wu repeatedly promised, "We will definitely not delay the delivery. As you can see, we have a lot more workers in the factory this year just to cope with the increasing number of orders year after year. And your

The big ships are still half a year ahead of schedule."

"Okay, since it's been decided, I'll go back first. The sun has gone down, so I have to rush back to eat."

"Walk slowly and be careful when riding on the road."

"OK."

Ye Yaodong shook off the empty satchel in his hand, came out full, and returned empty, replacing it with a few pieces of light paper, and he didn't even bother to pedal the bicycle.

He stepped on the pedal a few times and thought about standing up and riding in the wind, but there was a snap and the chain fell off.

"Grandma is such a bear!"

I got out of the car and took a look. Fortunately, there was nothing wrong. I just put the chain back on the gear and it was fine. Even if I touched it with my hand, it was completely black.

He didn't dare to pedal violently anymore. He only bought a bicycle two years ago. If he broke it while riding it, the whole family would have to call him a prodigal.

One of his bicycles was still as shiny as brand new, but his chain started to fall off.

I asked him to say that things only have value when they are used, and the cost can be recovered by using them several times.

Ye Yaodong blew the evening breeze and whistled all the way. He was in a good mood. He had done something. He could have a good Mid-Autumn Festival tomorrow and take a rest.

There should be news about many things the day after tomorrow, but he has to go to the province first, and he doesn't know how long it will take for the motorcycle to be repaired. If it really takes a few days to repair the motorcycle, then he has to come back first to take care of things.

When I got home in the evening, I didn't expect that Aguang was also playing in their yard with his children. His daughter would be one year old tomorrow and could already walk a few steps. She was squatting there and watching Ye Xiaoxi stirring the chicken excrement with a branch.

Ye Yaodong took a glance, and he was still surrounded by a group of dogs. While pushing his bicycle into the house, he asked Aguang who was sitting at the door.

"Have you finished eating? Do you want to eat at my place?"

Aguang followed him into the house, "No, I've already eaten. I'll take a walk with my child when I have nothing to do. Third sister-in-law said you went to the shipyard to book another ship?"

"Yeah, didn't I make a lot of money this time? I thought that the money in my hands would not increase, so I had to find a way to make money, so I thought about buying a boat and a shop and spending part of it. What about you? Do you have any?

What's the plan?"

After he parked the bicycle, he took the people outside again. The sun was setting and the light in the house was not that good. It would be cooler if he sat at the door.

"I had no plan at first. My dad and I just wanted to save a lot. We have money in our hands and don't feel panic. But I came over and chatted with the third sister-in-law for a while, and I think your plan makes sense. Even the eldest brother and the second brother

They all went to book a boat each, and we can’t just hold the money in our hands.”

"You're sure. You have two other ships that you can release. You can see the profit, and you can also calculate how long it will take to get your money back..."

Ye Yaodong once again instilled in him the concept of money begetting money and told him that it would be best to buy real estate.

"Look at people in ancient times. When they had money, they bought land and shops, and then they could accumulate more and more..."

"Now the direction of the wind has changed. The era of Landlord Fighting has passed. Now the spring breeze has blown to the earth. We must be bolder. You see, even the wholesale market has been supported, which explains a lot."

"Listen to me, you can't be wrong! After all, the money won't be lost anyway. The ship is there, the store is there, money is really tight. If necessary, can't we cash it out immediately?"

A Guang said hesitantly: "That's not the problem. This is fine. I can think of it, but I'm just worried that when the situation changes again, it will be miserable."

"Then no one knows your current net worth. You already have several boats in your family. What's more, don't you think it's getting better year by year? It won't change anymore, and it will get better if it changes."

"Otherwise, I'm going to the province to repair my motorcycle the day after tomorrow. You come with me? If you stay in the village all day, we are no different from frogs in a well. We don't even know what's going on outside?"

"I heard that high-rise buildings are being erected in many places outside. A high-rise building appears every few days. The changes are very big. In our small county town, the changes are not that big, but they are still much worse than a few years ago."

"After seeing the changes outside, do you plan to come back?"

A Guang listened to him and looked at the three-wheeler covered with nylon cloth in the corner of the yard.

He almost forgot that Dongzi got such a big guy two months ago.

"Is this going to be repaired by the province? Is it so troublesome?"

"Definitely. There are no repair shops in the towns near us, not even in the city. I still asked Hong Wenle in the town, didn't he have a motorcycle? I asked him where he bought it and contacted the factory there.

You can send it over for repair."

"Then when the repairs are completed, you won't be allowed to walk sideways in the village?"

"Then are you going?"

"Go, I'm sure I'm going. Have you decided what time to leave? I'll catch a car and follow you out to see the world, so as not to end up like a frog in a well."

When A Guang just said that, his heart was already very excited. He would not go anywhere, and the two of them were with each other.

"Anyway, I have nothing to do at home. In the past two days, our family has been visited by relatives. It's really annoying. I don't usually see people. These two days, I feel like they are all people. I never knew that my family is so

Many relatives."

"normal……"

When Ye Yaodong was still about to say something, the old lady came out and called him in to eat.

"We'll talk later. We've all eaten, and you're the only one left. You eat first, and then you can talk slowly after eating."

A Guang immediately said: "Then you go to eat first, I will wait for you."

"Let's go in and talk."

"You know the family I rented my first boat from, right? My eldest sister's future eldest aunt's family almost made me laugh out loud."

Ye Yaodong raised his eyebrows, "What do you mean? You don't want to give up half the points?"

"Isn't that right? I came back the night before yesterday and didn't come over to settle accounts. This is understandable. After all, we are not from the same village. Maybe I just got home and there are many things at home, which is normal."

"But he didn't come over the next day. My dad thought it wouldn't be easy to come to settle accounts and ask for money so early in the morning, so he waited until one or two o'clock in the afternoon to go there."

"In the end, do you know what they said? They said that since the boat had been sailing for them for two months, they bought the boat. They said how much we paid for it at the time, and they didn't include depreciation. It still depends on how much it cost.

We buy."

"Never mention the verbal rule we made when renting a boat, it's 50-50."

Ye Yaodong chewed a mouthful of rice and said vaguely: "Isn't this too shameless?"

"That's right. Once the money is in your pocket, you can't bear to take it out."

"It's better not to interact with people like this, and then get the money back?" Lin Xiuqing sat aside and asked curiously.

"I took it, the table was banging, and I asked them to take the money. I also called all the cadres of their village, as well as the future in-laws, otherwise they would keep insisting. Don't say that we have no credentials.

You are talking nonsense, they are all relatives and not outsiders. If you borrow the boat for two months, you still have to pay half of the money."

"What a fool, we ourselves have suffered a huge loss. We rented the boat to them in advance, but it was hard to get the money. We are so shameless."

"I wanted to deny it later, saying I didn't earn that much, so I slapped the list left by the agent on the table for everyone to look at, so I couldn't deny it."

"But when I got the money, it opened my eyes again. The old lady of that family just sat on the floor crying and calling her mother, and that family didn't give me the money again."

"I was so angry that I took out their kitchen knife and chopped it on their table, which shocked them. The village cadres in their village persuaded them again and again, and they had to give us the money."

"Made, if you dare not give it to me, they will have no peace in the days to come."

Lin Xiuqing frowned after hearing this, "It's so disgusting. How dare people like this dare to interact with each other in the future? They made a good deal, but then changed their minds after making a lot of money. Fortunately, they got it back."

Ye Yaodong thought of his eldest sister's marriage, "Then you can still get married?"

"My father was also very angry and wanted to quit directly, otherwise it would be very uncomfortable to have such relatives in the future. But my aunt said that I couldn't quit, as quitting would have a bad reputation. She said that the eldest aunt also got married, and her husband's family
