Chapter 1295

After lunch, Ye Yaodong had a comfortable nap before getting up to prepare for the bank.

Ye Fu had already been pacing back and forth in the room anxiously, going in and out several times and seeing him sleeping.

Finally seeing him wake up, he urged him to hurry up; it was already past 2 o'clock, and it would be 3 o'clock by the time he got there.

"The emperor isn't anxious, but the eunuch is dying of anxiety!"

Ye Fu was furious, "You dog-born, you can collect 200,000 immediately, that's 200,000, not 20, and you're still not anxious..."

Ye Yaodong sat on the edge of the bed putting on his socks and glanced at his father, "Who was I born by?"

"Stop with the nonsense, I'm the only one anxious for nothing."

"Aren't you anxious for nothing? We agreed to go in the afternoon, so we have to wait for them to be at work. Going early and waiting there is useless. It's not too late to go after waking up. There's no set time, just go before they get off work."

"You're not even proactive about collecting money, you're so slow, and you can still take a nap. I haven't even closed my eyes and I'm thinking about money, and you can still sleep..."

"Oh, whether I collect it early or late, isn't it all mine?"

"Hurry up, I've already called your eldest brother, second brother, and Aguang. With a few more family members going, we can count it faster."

Ye Yaodong glanced at his father speechlessly and stopped talking to him.

There was no need to count it at all, he wasn't going to bring it back anyway.

For the loan released by the bank, the bank would count it once before handing it to him. As long as he didn't leave the counter, he could just push it back to them and have them transfer it to the shipyard's account, right?

Let the bank count it again themselves; he wasn't going to handle it anyway.

"Let's go, I'll take you to feast your eyes."

Ye Fu rubbed his hands and followed behind him, "I've never seen that much money in my life."

"In two months, I can let you see it."

"You'd better collect the money from the bank first."

His eldest brother, second brother, and Aguang were already waiting at the door, and even a bunch of workers were curiously waiting at the door, all waiting for him to get up.

"Adong, how can you still sleep?"

"Should we go to help out?"

"Shouldn't there be more people to protect that much money?"

"Should we put the guns and big knives in a basket and carry them?"

Ye Yaodong had just woken up, his head was still buzzing, and seeing the crowd surrounding him, his head started to ache.

"What are you fussing about? You all wait at home, you don't need to go anywhere."

"Really don't need to? Just in case, what if the bank reneges?"

"If the bank reneges, can you go rob the bank? What's the use of having many people? Just wait."

Ye Yaodong looked at his eldest brother, second brother, and Aguang again, "How about you don't go either? It's not a big deal, why do you have to call the whole family..."

"We have to go, we really have to go. This is a big deal, 200,000 is not a small amount. What if you need help? We don't have to bring the workers, but family members should follow to see and have each other's backs."

He said helplessly, "Alright, then you all follow and go see."

Ye Fu beamed and walked in front first. Ye Yaodong originally wanted to push his bicycle, but seeing so many people, it wasn't appropriate for him to ride alone, so he looked down at his two legs and could only rely on walking.

Who knows who delayed whom.

Ye Yaopeng asked with a smile while walking, "Dongzi, have you thought about how to tell the family about this 200,000 loan?"

"Tell them what? What's there to think about? Just mention it a couple of times when we get home."

Ye Yaodong spoke very casually and sounded very firm.

"I see you're earning quite a bit now, you don't really need to borrow."

"This has nothing to do with earning more or less. If there's a street performer troupe on the side of the road, and everyone who goes gets twenty eggs, would you go queue up to collect them?"

"Uh..."

"Wouldn't you have to queue up to collect them and bring them home? Although these are two different situations, the nature is about the same. I'm not losing anything, why shouldn't I take it?"

Ye Yaodong said righteously, "The country is giving out benefits and sending me money to help me take off, why shouldn't I take it? I have the ability to pay for the boat myself, but wouldn't it hurt to pay out of my own pocket? With the country sponsoring, it definitely won't hurt, and there's no interest."

"If someone told you to take out 20,000 to order another boat, would you have it? Could you take it out? Would you take it all out to order another one?"

Ye Yaopeng chuckled, "We'd still have to keep it on hand. How could we just hand it over like that? We'd definitely have to save a bit more money first. The boat we have on hand is enough."

"Isn't that it? If someone said they'd lend you 20,000 to buy a boat, and in three years you'd pay them back 20,000, and then the boat would be yours, with no interest, just paying back the 20,000 principal, would you want it?"

The brothers all laughed and were too embarrassed to say anything more.

If someone really gave them 20,000 to buy a boat, they would actually be suspicious and wouldn't dare take it, because after all, they would have to pay it back.

There's no such thing as a free lunch.

They didn't understand much themselves and were in a foreign place, so it wasn't easy for them to believe there was such a good thing.

Ye Yaodong actually just had more experience than others, but he could roughly distinguish the truth from the false, knew the direction of social development, and knew what was most suitable for himself.

Everyone didn't continue the topic of whether he should borrow money. Since the funds were being released anyway, everyone has their own ambitions and different ideas.

Aguang changed the subject and asked, "After the funds are released later, will Dongzi go directly to the shipyard?"

"Yes, take the remittance slip to the shipyard to order the boats and have them arrange production."

"When is the delivery date?"

"The four 20-meter-plus boats can be delivered one after another between September and October next year. The 40-meter one will probably take until November or December. I can't fully guarantee it because the factory is also producing several 30-meter boats, and there are quite a few 10-to-20-meter ones. They said they would definitely be finished by New Year's at the latest."

Ye Fu said, "That's not bad. The shipyard is full of boats, and there's a bunch lined up on the shore waiting for repairs. This is also a fishing port, and there are plenty of people ordering fishing boats, and there are even many shipyards."

Ye Yaohua said, "Then we definitely have to come here next year."

Aguang said with a smile, "You don't want to come over? Eldest brother and second brother haven't earned less this year. Are you thinking of earning and running, and not coming next year?"

"Hehe, no, isn't it still early? If Dongzi comes, we definitely have to come too."

Ye Yaodong didn't speak.

Wealth is sought in danger. In two months, when everyone summarizes their earnings, they will all be hoping and begging to come again next year.

With money to be made, what danger is there to fear? Moreover, everyone is sticking together, and they know the situation here. They all have a count in their hearts, will be careful, and will feel that victory is in their grasp.

Everyone chatted while walking slowly, and it was already past 3 o'clock when they arrived at the bank.

Shen Ming'e was already anxious from waiting.

"Why did you just arrive? You're not proactive about collecting money."

"Haha, why are you saying the same thing as my father? We had many people, so we walked a bit slowly."

"Let's go, the procedures are complete, I'll take you to the window to handle the loan release procedures."

Several people followed behind Shen Ming'e.

The procedures were complete and approved, just waiting for the release. Since Ye Yaodong had arrived, everything else was a matter of course.

After the staff at the window verified the stack of materials Shen Ming'e handed in, they verified Ye Yaodong's identification, signed and stamped, and simultaneously had Ye Yaodong sign a receipt for the funds.

After the process was error-free, everyone saw the staff inside bend down and grab several stacks of banknotes to place on the counter inside, then continue to bend down.

Everyone's eyes widened, and they were a bit excited; they had never seen so much money in their lives.

Stack after stack of large denominations piled up more and more until the counter inside was full, and the staff stood up straight again.

"Did you bring something to carry it? We are not responsible once it leaves the counter. Count it clearly later."

"Comrade, we aren't taking the cash away. Could you please transfer these banknotes to this remittance account for me?"

Ye Yaodong took out another slip with the account name and account number for the remittance, which was the shipyard's.

"Are you sure you want to transfer all the money to this account?"

"Yes, sure."

"Then you have to collect the money first, and then request a remittance. The process still has to be followed; you can't request a remittance without collecting the money."

Shen Ming'e also followed up, "That's right, there must be an entry and an exit. The loan must be handed to you in cash to prove you've received it. Whatever you want to do with it, you have to collect the money first."

"Alright."

The person inside passed the money out through the window stack by stack. Before long, the counter in front of Ye Yaodong was also full.

He handed the requested remittance slip to the inside again, "Can I remit the money now? I'll stuff the money back to you."

"Aren't you going to count it?"

"Isn't this what you released? I haven't touched it, I'm just returning it to you. You just need to transfer 200,000 to this account."

"That works too."

The pile of banknotes in front was transported inside through the window again.

Ye Fu hadn't even touched it yet, and the money was gone again. He stretched his neck and looked longingly, "Doesn't this need to be counted?"

"No, we have to remit it anyway. We didn't touch the money that was just passed out, we're just passing it back to them. As long as there's 200,000 in the account to be transferred, it's fine."

After the person inside received the money, they had no choice but to count it again stack by stack, just in case.

The people outside also stretched their necks, and Ye Fu's fingers were itching and moving around several times.

After a long time, the person inside finished counting and then handled the remittance procedures for him.

In the end, the only thing handed to Ye Yaodong was a remittance slip. After checking it was correct, he put it away and thanked Shen Ming'e.

Shen Ming'e handed him a document bag, "This is your loan information, keep a copy. Remember to come back and pay it off before it's due."

"Alright, understood."

"You must pay it back, otherwise it will leave a stain on your personal record."

"Must, I will definitely pay it back."

Three years, he could earn a profit just by selling the boat, he wouldn't be unable to pay it back.

After they came out of the bank, Ye Fu felt a bit lost.

"200,000? With this entry and exit, it seems I didn't even see the money? I just took a look at it."

Ye Yaodong patted his pocket, "Isn't it all here."

"It's just a piece of paper."

"A piece of paper is enough."

"Then hurry to the shipyard, I don't know if they'll recognize it, so much money turned into a piece of paper. Hurry up, in case they don't admit it, we can go back to the bank to renege."

Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua also hurriedly agreed. They also felt it was a bit unrealistic, as they hadn't seen the money.

"Right, let's wait for you to speed up, otherwise the sun will set in a while."

"Dongzi has already made an appointment with the shipyard, they should recognize it when the slip is brought over." Aguang helped say.

Ye Fu couldn't help but complain, "I told you to come early, but you were there sleeping. After waking up, you were still slow and saying the emperor isn't anxious, but the eunuch is dying of anxiety. Now it's good, the sun is about to set, hurry up."

Ye Yaodong didn't argue. If he had ridden his bicycle, he would have reached the shipyard by now, instead of having to rely on walking with his two legs.

Aguang, however, voiced his inner thoughts, "If I had known, I would have ridden a bicycle to be faster."

"How could a bicycle seat 5 people..."

"I thought since you brothers were off today, it would be better for you all to go together. In case you need help counting money or running errands, it's more reliable than outsiders. Who knew we'd just watch like this, and the money didn't even pass through our hands."

Ye Yaodong urged, "Don't just keep talking, walk faster. There are no passing cars to hitch a ride on the side of the road; at this time, they've all gone back and forth to the pier to haul goods."

"Then walk faster..."

Fortunately, the shipyard has people working 24 hours a day. When they arrived, the sun had just set, and Factory Manager Shen was still there. It wasn't off-work time yet, but in winter, the sun sets early and it gets dark early.

Ye Yaodong handed a copy of the remittance slip to Factory Manager Shen.

This was also what he asked Shen Ming'e to help copy. He kept the original himself, regardless of whether it would be useful or not, just to keep a record.

The total payment for the 4 boats plus one 40-meter boat was a little over 200,000, and they wouldn't bargain. Ye Yaodong transferred the loan money directly to the public account now, and the remaining balance was only about 10,000, which he would keep and pay when the goods were delivered.

If he had used the entire 200,000 as a deposit to order more boats, the nature of it would be different from getting it for free.

He would have to pay a large sum when the goods were delivered, and the demand for labor would also be high at that time.

This interest-free loan was an accidental encounter and a temporary idea, so he couldn't order too many, lest it get out of control.

Borrow as much as he could and do as much as he could, it's better to be safe. When shipbuilding technology is better in the future, it would be better to use the money to order large ships.

After Factory Manager Shen looked it over, he kept the slip and said he would check it tomorrow. After confirming it was correct, he would arrange the order tomorrow.

By the way, he also had him sign the blueprints for the boats and the listed equipment list first. After checking that the payment had arrived tomorrow, he would arrange production according to these blueprints.

This had already been done a while ago, but Ye Yaodong hadn't come over, so he hadn't signed it. Today, it was just right to sign it together.

Ye Yaodong signed only after seeing that the blueprints and required equipment were fine, and then asked him to give him another copy.

Copying might not be popular in other places, but in these state-owned units, some have already started using it.

After agreeing to come back tomorrow, they left before their seats were even warm.

After the sun set, it got dark very quickly. They didn't think about lingering, since they had to come back tomorrow anyway.

Walking on the road, everyone felt that Ye Yaodong handled things so quickly, and it was both fast and urgent. Calculated, it was also very smooth, and fishing boats could be produced tomorrow.

Ye Fu slapped his thigh hard, "I forgot to urge them about that cargo ship just now..."

"It's the same if we say it tomorrow."

"We must urge them tomorrow. It's only two months, and we'll be going back. With so much money spent, we at least need to have a boat to sail back, so the fellow villagers can all see it."

"Are you sure it's not for my mother and the others to see?"

"Crazy, you've earned so much money, what's wrong with buying a big boat? Who would still talk nonsense? When you earn more money and take it back, they definitely won't have anything to say."

"Hmm, we'll make you look good then."

Hearing this, Ye Fu's face blossomed with a smile. He could already imagine how glorious it would be when he went back.

The workers at home had already cooked the meal and were just waiting for them to return.

Seeing the father and son return empty-handed, bringing nothing back, and sitting down to eat directly, they all asked a few curious questions.

Ye Fu explained a bit.

"Then letting them transfer it back and forth, will the money disappear?"

"How is that possible? We've already been to the shipyard, waiting for Dongzi to make it bigger and stronger next year."

"Then shouldn't we have a drink to celebrate?"

"Is there any rice wine left? How about we have some? We aren't going out to sea tomorrow anyway, and it's windy again tonight."

"Yeah, why is it windy again, delaying things."

"No way, after the weather gets cold, the northwest wind is fierce..."

It's windy, so they can't go out to sea. When these boats of theirs returned, the shrimp-catching boats were still at sea. They had returned once in the middle to sell goods themselves, not coming and going with them, arranging according to their own time.

According to the original agreement, Ye Yaodong should go out to sea to collect a batch of goods tomorrow. Now it looks like he doesn't need to go out. It's windy, and those boats should be coming back again.

Ye Yaodong thought that today was a good thing, so he let everyone drink some wine. It was just right since the weather was cold, and it could warm their bodies.

At night, the cold wind blew, making the windows rattle. When he got up the next day, the perceived temperature was indeed colder. He wrapped himself in a big cotton-padded jacket and went to the shipyard with his father.

After completely settling the fishing boat matter, he also chatted with Factory Manager Shen about the modification of the cargo ship and received repeated assurances that it could be completed around New Year's, so his heart was at ease.

It was only a month and a half, which wasn't slow.

He and his father stayed until the noon off-work time and went back with the workers changing shifts.

In the afternoon, his father was idle and rode his bicycle to the shipyard to help with work.

Ye Yaodong sat at home drinking tea, watching others play cards.

After the weather got cold, even the sun was rarely seen, leaving only the cold wind whistling. The workers' card games had already moved indoors.

Just when he was leisurely, he saw a familiar head at the window. After being surprised, he immediately ran to open the door.

"Boss Zhang, when did you get back?"

"I got back yesterday morning. I only had time to come over today. Your family sent you a few thick clothes and asked me to bring them to you."

Ye Yaodong hurriedly took the sack he handed over and invited him into the house.

"When I called home two days ago, my wife mentioned it. I didn't expect you to be back so soon. How did you pass through our market when you came back?"

Zhang Rensu followed him into the house, then looked curiously at everyone playing cards and said.

"I stayed for two days. The wholesale market on your side is quite large, so I walked around to see what I could pick up and bring back. By the way, I could also see more and offer suggestions when I get back."

"Then I thought since I was already in the city, and your factory was nearby, I'd go over to notify you and see if your family had anything they wanted me to bring along."

"Thank you very much."

Ye Yaodong asked the workers to move out to play, and he cleared the main room to entertain the guest.

"The local trading market has been decided, it really is on Fish Market Street. Buying those old houses there was the right move."

"When will they start building?"

"I heard the project was just decided and they are still processing it."

This is too early. According to the trajectory, it should be after 2000. If they start processing and arranging now, it will probably be available in the 90s...

"Also, the pier side needs to start rectification. To avoid congestion, cars are hard to pass, and they won't allow random stalls later. It seems they have also specifically designated a piece of land, preparing to organize it for temporary trading. It's already the second half of the year, so they'll probably push it after the new year."

"Good thing. Let me tell you, the real estate industry will only get more awesome in the future. If you want to be rich, build roads first. If you earn money, build houses."

"Noted, it is indeed like that. Ordinary people will think about improving their living conditions after earning money."

The two sat and chatted for a while, and Zhang Rensu also briefly talked about where he had been in the past two months.

Then he also said that after resting for two or three days this time, he would have to go out again immediately.

In the second half of the year, the production of shrimp skins and hairtail during the fishing season is huge. They have to rush before the new year, transport more goods out frequently, and cannot linger outside.

"Can I order a ton of shrimp skins from you and have them delivered directly to my shop in the wholesale market? You are transporting goods out anyway, and it's about the same route."

"That works, but this requires transportation costs, and it certainly won't be cheaper than wholesale directly from the factory."

"I know this, you look at the quote, and if I think it's appropriate, I'll order."

It just so happens that he is taking the same route, so he can ask him to deliver it directly to the shop. Shrimp skins are so easy to sell.

He thought that as long as Zhang Rensu goes out, he would allocate a ton to him, which would also help sell some, benefiting both parties.

In two months when he goes back, he can pull half a boat back and earn a profit.

He wants to earn big money, but he can't look down on small money.

Starting from now to build a system, when the shipments are large, he can directly ask Zhang Rensu to pull a truck for him at a fixed time, which can be considered a fixed supply channel.

Zhang Rensu pondered for a while before saying he had to go back and calculate the quantity for this trip to be sure, and would come back to tell him tomorrow.

Ye Yaodong had no opinion, and he wasn't in a hurry.

If there really is an order, he will call his father-in-law and notify him to receive it, and also spend some of the money on hand, otherwise he has no place to spend it at all now.

It's all money coming in. Except for daily food and drink, he has no place to spend money now.

With more money on hand, he really wants to spend some.

After sending the person away, Ye Yaodong sat there thinking alone.

That pile of garbage can be considered a preemptive strike. Now that they are optimizing the management of the pier, when the government reacts in two years, it will definitely not be his turn.

If the trading market on Fish Market Street starts building next year, when it's completed in two years, he'll see if he can buy two shops through connections.

After lunch, he was idle, so he called his eldest brother and second brother to go to the pier to look around, wanting to see the impact of the wind and waves, and also wanting to see the government planning Zhang Rensu mentioned.

But he didn't expect that when he went outside the pier, he saw quite a few navy personnel coming and going, team after team.

And there were many supply vehicles coming and going, causing congestion at the pier.

He curiously pulled a passerby and asked, "Big brother, what is this for? Why are there so many navy personnel?"

"I don't know. I heard them say it's to repair the pier or something? There weren't this many people yesterday."

He pulled the next person to ask, and it was another version.

It was said that the pier was too chaotic and they were sending troops to supervise and maintain order...

Heard that a warship had an accident somewhere, and these logistics personnel came to help with the rescue...

Heard again that they were going to build a military docking point, specifically for warships to dock, repair, and resupply, this wave after wave...

There was also talk that a war was coming...

The three Ye brothers had to pull a few people to ask every few steps they took, and they were all various versions. They didn't know which one was reliable, or if none were reliable.

"Not to mention anything else, seeing so many navy uniforms coming and going, it actually feels quite safe..."

Ye Yaopeng hurriedly agreed, "Right, seeing so many navy personnel coming and going makes me feel at ease, no need to worry about accidents again."

"Accidents will happen if they are meant to happen. It's just that with the navy stationed nearby, everyone is in awe and has to be careful."

Ye Yaohua looked with envy, "These faces are all quite young, they must be new recruits. This uniform is really good-looking..."

Ye Yaodong also agreed, "Yeah, this uniform is super cool. A few months ago, there was military recruitment there. I wonder if Ayuan succeeded in being recruited?"

"What kind of soldiers was Ayuan recruited for at that time?"

"I heard there were all kinds, army, navy, and air force all came to recruit, depending on personal wishes and allocation. I've been busy for the past few months and forgot to ask."

After leaving home, his mind was on how to earn money safely. Calling home was just to report safety and greet family members, and he had long thrown this matter to the back of his mind.

"Joining the army is glorious..."

"Hey hey hey... Dongzi, look at that one, that one, the one walking over... does he look like Ayuan..."

Ye Yaodong turned his head abruptly, "Holy crap..."

He was startled, hurriedly squeezed toward the crowd, and pulled Lin Guangyuan hard.

"Ah, what are you doing... ah grass, little uncle-in-law!!! Holy crap, little uncle-in-law, why are you here? I..."

Lin Guangyuan jumped up excitedly, swearing a few times to express the shock in his heart.

"Holy crap, it really is you. I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me. You are actually here?"

"Little uncle-in-law, why are you here? I'm just here. I've been in this area for several months, damn it, hahaha, why are you here too..."

Lin Guangyuan was so excited that he was a bit incoherent.

"I've been here for several months too, damn, you've grown quite a bit, and you've tanned."

"Am I cool! Look at my uniform, is it cool!"

Ye Yaodong looked at him spinning around with a smile and gave him a thumbs up, "Cool! Congratulations, dream come true!"
