Chapter 1158
"Glorifying ancestors!"
"Our village can actually produce an official who runs to another province, too powerful, catching jellyfish can actually catch an official."
"Your father's life is too good. Now he can walk sideways in the village, and his face has light."
"Why are you still catching fish? Don't catch fish, just be an official in the city, why be so hard?"
Ye Yaodong hurriedly stretched out his hand, "This is just where it is? I just hang a name. This has no salary and no power. I said it's still a grass-roots team. I can't rely on this to eat. If I want to earn money, I still have to catch fish. If I don't catch fish, I drink the northwest wind?"
What's more, the fact has long proved that his shipping is powerful. Putting aside such a good opening artifact, he ran to the city to be a mascot for others, being called back and forth, that is not as carefree as on the sea.
He had long understood that he was just hanging a name. The name sounds good, let people who don't know envy it, and it sounds good to say it out. In fact, who takes him seriously? Originally, he was an outsider.
If he couldn't see clearly and took himself seriously, then he would really have to roll back to his hometown in a few days.
Recognizing his status and being a mascot, maybe his butt can sit in the vice president position for a few years and brag for a few years.
"Then... that's also the vice president. This name sounds very big, like the vice mayor, very powerful..."
Ye Yaodong's mouth couldn't help but twitch, "You really look up to me, really know how to compare."
"Then Dong, you wrote so much on this paper, do you have to speak under the national flag tomorrow? Will there be a large group of people watching?"
"We will all go to applaud for you tomorrow afternoon to increase popularity. We can't let you be looked down upon by others. When the time comes, our palms will have to be swollen for you."
"Right, right, right, after eating, tell the fellow villagers, let them go to support you tomorrow afternoon..."
"Wait, wait, wait, where did you all think? Still speaking under the national flag? You really know how to think. There is no speech at all. Probably a group of people at the meeting will take turns to speak. Don't think nonsense, nothing to do with you." Ye Yaodong was a bit helpless, everyone's imagination was exaggerated.
"Don't need it?"
"Don't need it. You don't have to do anything. Hurry up and eat. This has nothing to do with you. Don't get involved. If you really want to help, go one person into the water to replace me. Anyway, those who go into the water have a subsidy of two yuan."
The remaining three old ones looked at each other.
"Then we will take turns to try, see your father can't do it, we also thought we couldn't do it."
"My father can, it's just that he is old, so I didn't let him go into the water. You are the same, you are all old, so I didn't think about letting you try. Don't force it. It's enough for 5 people to go into the water, and someone has to stay at home to watch and cook."
This is also completely true, not polite words. The manpower called out is planned. It is impossible to ask for a few people to go into the water and only invite a few people. Someone has to stay at home to watch the house and do chores and cook. On the fishing boat, someone has to stay on duty at night. After all, they are in another place.
"Oh, then we will still be on duty on the boat at night, and watch the house at home during the day, carry water and chop wood."
Ye Yaodong nodded and didn't say anything. If they are willing to try, try. If they are not willing, forget it.
After the meal, he continued to organize his drafts.
In the past two years, he hasn't stopped the habit of reading newspapers. As long as he is at home, he will make up for the newspapers he hasn't read. It's just that he writes less.
Most of the words are recognized, but sometimes they are missing arms and legs when writing. Only he can recognize them. If it's too complicated, he sometimes writes half, and the other half is replaced by circles and crosses.
Regret that there are few books when used. When he really writes, he pulls his hair again. It's too ugly. He is embarrassed to take this draft paper out for people to see. It looks uncultured at first glance.
He took the pen and wrote and drew, supplemented it, and then sighed.
"It seems that the one who should practice calligraphy is not Ye Chenghu, but me. Damn, I'll go buy a copybook when I go out later. Even if I hold the Buddha's feet temporarily, I have to hold it. Maybe I can use it again sometime. This handwriting is a bit embarrassing."
"I think it's written quite well. Like me, I only know how to write numbers, and then draw circles and crosses."
Ye Yaodong glanced at the three curious people beside him, folded the paper again and again, and then put it in his pocket.
He didn't speak, and someone spoke for him on the side.
"Dong is a boss, can he be the same as us rough people? What's more, we are all old, who knows how many years we can live? He is still a young man, and he is going to be an official soon. He will definitely sign his name a lot in the future, of course he has to write it better for people to see."
This is right, it hit his heart.
Other words can be practiced later, he must practice his signature first.
Just do it.
All afternoon, he solved the speech draft and started writing his name. Although he didn't know when it could be used, he had to write his own name first.
Full of passion, stimulated by the title of vice president of the fishery association that he never dared to think about, he was like a shot of chicken blood, full of energy.
If he had this energy when he was studying, why worry about not being admitted to the highest institution?
All the energy of the whole body is now on this. It's just that he really has a three-minute heat. After writing it full, the medicine of the chicken blood has passed, and his heat has slowed down. He dropped the pen and went back to the room to sleep.
After the sun went down, Ye Fu and the others came back, and he went to the pier to help.
As soon as Ye Fu saw him, he asked about the Maritime Police Bureau calling him over today.
Ye Yaodong also confessed everything. Ye Fu was stunned, and his reaction was the same as everyone else's. His first reaction was that he was promoted?
He had to explain it again, telling his father not to be happy so early, it was just hanging a name.
"That is also glorifying ancestors. This suddenly became a big official, and it is more powerful than what was said before. The name sounds different."
Ye Fu's old face was full of wrinkles, very happy, and he muttered two sentences of ancestors' blessing.
"Did you call home? You have to tell the family, let everyone be happy in advance. This trip was not in vain, earned money and earned reputation."
"What's the rush? The matter hasn't been completely settled yet, so there are variables. Don't rush to promote it now, so as not to say big words, and then it will be embarrassing to be slapped in the face."
"Ah, that's true. Then wait until you finish the meeting tomorrow noon and implement it before talking. Don't worry, don't worry, so as not to be laughed at."
Ye Fu couldn't help but laugh again, "Hey... really promising."
"Hurry up and move the goods, go home after moving."
"Right, right, right, hurry up and sell the goods, talk slowly after going home."
Today, it was rare that he wasn't there and didn't go into the water, so the harvest really shrank, missing several hundred jin.
Originally, after the rain stopped, the harvest of these few days could reach about 3000 jin. This shrinkage was only 2300-plus jin, selling for 500-plus yuan.
Ye Fu watched them calculating accounts there, and also stretched his neck to look, "Less so much? You weren't there, we directly earned a hundred less. Looking at the harvest today, I knew it was less, but I didn't expect it to be so much less."
"Hmm, talk about it after going back."
Ye Yaodong also felt distressed about the lost money, it was too much, but he inevitably couldn't go out to sea tomorrow.
Fortunately, it was only two days.
He comforted himself.
Anyway, the sea urchins underneath can only be caught by him now, and others can't catch them, so they just belong to him. It doesn't matter if you catch less now, anyway, it didn't cheapen others. He will catch more later.
Thinking this way, it was not sad, anyway, they were all his.
After Ye Fu went back, he still wanted to arrange a shift for the 5 people, rest less, and strive not to fall empty. Today, there were 5 people in three teams, and one team only had one person down, falling empty.
Ye Yaodong felt it was unnecessary and stopped his father.
It was also fortunate that his father only mentioned it when he followed him in when he hid the money under the pillow.
He explained: "Originally, going into the water frequently hurts the body. They now go into the water six or seven times a day, which is enough. If you don't give a little rest gap in the middle, the body can't bear it. You let 5 people take turns, not letting them fall empty, then everyone has to add two more times, that is too hurtful, no."
"Didn't anything happen?"
"Looking like nothing happened, but accidents come when they come. It's also fortunate that it rained intermittently during this period, and they didn't go out to sea every day, so they could relax and rest. Don't increase the workload anymore. Just like this, anyway, no one grabs our goods."
"Then okay."
"You just treat it as a loss from a rainy day. A few days ago, it rained intermittently. If you really want to calculate the loss, wouldn't it be a loss of several thousand yuan? Now it is only a loss of a hundred yuan a day. Speaking of this, it is nothing."
"Fine, what you say is right."
Ye Fu didn't refute, but changed the subject and asked: "Do you have any power after you become this vice president?"
"No."
"No power? Then is there any benefit?"
"If you really want to say what the benefits are, then it is probably that the reputation is good, you can brag in front of people who don't know the truth, and after returning to the village, all the villagers know it, so you can be glorious."
"Just like this?"
"Just like this. Didn't I say it earlier, just hang a name, the reputation is good. Be content, others want to pick up this cheapness but have no chance. This is still won by the leader's help."
Ye Fu was a bit disappointed, thinking he could be glorious.
Before, when listening to Ye Yaodong at the pier, Ye Fu only listened to what he wanted to hear, and didn't care about the others. Moreover, it was inconvenient to talk outside, and it was all noisy. Now he really understood.
"Then... that's also quite good, it's okay. At least hung a name, and it's bigger than the previously expected official, so it's even better. Then hang a name first, and mix it up later, it will be fine."
Ye Yaodong didn't hit him.
"Then you hurry up and prepare, implement this matter tomorrow afternoon, and we can call back to tell the fellow villagers that you are an official here."
Ye Fu adjusted himself, and soon accepted it. A smile appeared on his face, full of pride, and he couldn't wait to brag.
He flattened his mouth and didn't speak.
There were quite a lot of people at the meeting the next day. It was estimated that thirty or forty people were sitting in an empty room. The open space in the middle was emptied, and everyone sat in two or three circles, then took turns standing in the position slightly above the middle to speak.
When the first person went up to introduce himself, Ye Yaodong was stunned. They all spoke the local dialect, and he didn't hear a word. He quietly asked the person beside him, but the person beside him glanced at him and didn't say a word.
After he scolded "damn, what's so great about locals" in his heart, he also turned his head, sat straight, pretended to listen seriously, and then applauded when others applauded.
When the second person went up, it was another mouthful of local dialect, and he had no choice but to sit calmly, listening in a daze.
However, at this time, someone on the other side curiously patted him twice, and then chatted with him in the local dialect. He directly said, I don't understand, I'm from out of town.
The person was surprised, and immediately switched to Mandarin, "Oh, I know, you are the outsider fisherman vice president."
Ye Yaodong nodded reservedly.
"Powerful, you are an outsider and a fisherman, yet you can mix in to be a vice president, very powerful. And you don't look like a fisherman at all, looking so upright. I thought you were a soldier. Aren't fishermen all black like charcoal, with a face full of wind and frost?"
"The leader raised it," he touched his face again, "I don't tan easily."
"I thought the fisherman vice president stuffed in would be an old man of fifty or sixty, didn't expect to be so young, and look so handsome. My name is Fang Jingfu, you can call me A-Fu. I am also a vice president. My father is from the Ocean Research Institute. I heard you donated that big fish the day before yesterday. He was very happy, saying that he studies small shrimp every day, and it is rare to have such a rare big fish sent over."
Ye Yaodong was surprised, "So you were also stuffed in."
"Why are you telling the truth, brother, everyone is the same." Fang Jingfu pointed his mouth at the person who was speaking, "Look, the one speaking is also stuffed in. He is the son of the Chamber of Commerce president established in the past two years. The president who spoke first is from the Ocean Bureau..."
Listening to him talking about the combination of this grass-roots team, Ye Yaodong immediately knew that this was really a grass-roots team, built after balancing all departments and organizations.
Except for the president, there are several directors and a secretary-general. Half of them are stuffed in from everywhere, and the remaining half are some idle personnel transferred from other departments and places. This is to let them supervise and do practical things, and then transfer them out after becoming formal in the future.
Then, after today's meeting ends, the news and newspapers will announce that the Fishery Association is officially established, and then recruit talents to strengthen the Fishery Association. New people have to pay a membership fee.
Of course, these veteran backbones also have to pay membership fees, used for start-up funds. This is a small matter for Ye Yaodong.
Fang Jingfu seems to be a chatterbox, catching Ye Yaodong and talking non-stop, pointing out everyone he knows at the scene to him.
Until the person speaking in the middle changed, and called Fang Jingfu's name, he instinctively reacted and stood up, shouted "here", and then smiled, took out the draft paper in his pocket and went up to speak.
However, this time he didn't speak the local dialect, but spoke Mandarin.
Ye Yaodong listened to him talking eloquently, and after he finished, he also cooperated very well and applauded. Then after he came down, it was someone else's turn, and Ye Yaodong's name hadn't been called yet.
"Why do you speak Mandarin? Don't you all speak the local dialect?"
Fang Jingfu folded the draft paper in his hand and put it in his pocket, "I just graduated from university, and I have been speaking Mandarin in school, so I spoke Mandarin."
Ye Yaodong gave him a thumbs up, "Powerful, university student, unlimited future."
"Hey, couldn't get into a technical secondary school, just mixed into a junior college. Originally assigned to a tractor factory, my father got me into the research institute to help him, and now he got me here, giving me a beautiful name."
"Very powerful, holding multiple posts, unlike me who has no culture, only knows how to catch fish."
"I said it, 360 lines, every line has a champion. You are also very powerful. I have seen your boat, it is quite big. I heard that boat costs several tens of thousands."
"Haha, can't compare to the gold content of your university student."
"Do you go out to sea every day? Can you often catch some rare big fish?"
"Rare big fish is not certain, but some magical scenes on the sea, and various peculiar phenomena of marine life can still be seen a lot?"
Fang Jingfu suddenly became interested, but the person in the middle finished speaking, and suddenly called Ye Yaodong's name.
Ye Yaodong's relaxed nerves immediately tightened, and he hurriedly stood up and went up with a serious face.
Everyone around looked at him in surprise, whispering to each other.
Really, if he didn't say he was a fisherman, no one could guess it.
After all, he is tall and long-legged, his body shape is corrected, and his face is whiter than ordinary people, at least whiter than the people at the scene, and he is very young. This is also because he has tanned a bit during this period, looking more mature. Otherwise, his appearance before was definitely a little white face.
And he had a shaved head last month. After a month and a half, the inch-long hair that grew out gave people the first impression that he was a soldier, which was more vivid.
Everyone whispered, and their impression of him was better. At first, knowing there was an outsider fisherman vice president, they all guessed it was an old man of fifty or sixty with a face full of wind and frost.
Now looking at him, he is more upright and handsome than everyone at the scene. Personal image is still quite important. Giving people a good first impression, at least it can give a good impression. Although they will still be excluded, they don't look down on him as much as before.
Ye Yaodong's draft paper had been read dozens of times. He had long known the content by heart. After all, this was also written by him. When speaking, he only looked at it occasionally, and most of the time he looked at everyone sitting in the room.
And the content he said also made everyone feel refreshed. The people who spoke just now all spoke very officially, only saying how they would do their jobs well, how to praise the fishery association, how to look forward to the development of the fishery association, etc.
What he said was very targeted jellyfish suggestions, and some farming prospects for marine life, advocating the farming industry, building a hometown of jellyfish. This is a resource gifted by the ocean because of its geographical location, so it must be utilized.
Then he also suggested supporting marine research more, and advocating the government to give some preferential policies related to fish cargo production.
After he finished speaking, everyone was thinking there. And Fang Jingfu took the lead in applauding, leading everyone to stop whispering and applaud.
After Ye Yaodong finished speaking, he also breathed a long sigh of relief, and only returned to his position after bowing.
"Powerful, speaking clearly and logically. Everyone spoke so emptily, didn't expect you to speak so practically."
"Haha, because I am a fisherman, I have more contact with the ocean than you. Floating on the sea every day, I have a deeper experience and understanding of some marine phenomena than you. I just want our country to develop the ocean better, and develop better and better in the future, surpassing some surrounding countries."
Fang Jingfu nodded with a smile, his expression particularly approving, "You are right, we should promote marine research more. Only when more things are researched can it benefit the country and the people, can it be used for development, and make us stronger and stronger."
"Right, science is the primary productive force. Only with technology can there be power."
"I have to go back and tell my father. You gave everyone a refreshing feeling today. Originally everyone looked down on you, but now it seems you are much more powerful than others, and it is too different from what I imagined."
"Haha..."
"It's no wonder the leader always says to start from the grassroots. The bottom laboring people also have the wisdom of the bottom laboring people. 360 lines, every line has a champion is not wrong at all. If you do an industry to the extreme, even fishermen and farmers can make people look at them with admiration."
Ye Yaodong only laughed twice, and he kept chattering again.
The meeting started at 2 o'clock in the afternoon, and it wasn't until 5:30 that everyone at the scene took turns to speak. However, no one listened to the back. At first, they could listen seriously for a while, but by the back, they were already absent-minded.
Until it was time to disperse, the president who presided over the meeting took out the registered certificate of the Ocean Association to show everyone, and announced that the Fishery Association was officially established today.
Everyone applauded enthusiastically, and this meeting was officially curtained.
Ye Yaodong was also all smiles and excited. The dust settled.
The people at the scene were also very happy, applauding without reservation. At this time, it didn't look like a grass-roots team.
And he and Fang Jingfu also became familiar through this meeting. When leaving, the two also exchanged addresses, and Fang Jingfu also left the research institute's phone number, telling him that if he caught any strange goods, just send them to the research institute.
Ye Yaodong didn't know if his chatting with him was for this purpose, but the two chatted quite happily, and he also learned a lot of information about this grass-roots team from Fang Jingfu's mouth.
Today can be considered making a new friend, and it looks like a new friend with some status.
After the two of them separated and went their own ways, the people behind were still whispering about him, but anyway, he couldn't understand.
Ye Yaodong completed a major event and walked back with light steps.
