Chapter 1321

~11 min read 2,151 words

On the twelfth day of the twelfth lunar month, before dawn, Ye Yaodong heard voices coming from the doorway, as well as the old lady's happy laughter.

He walked out to take a look and saw A Zheng, Xiao Xiao, and A Guang surrounding the old lady at the doorway talking. The old lady was still digging into her pocket to share melon seeds with them, and also tucked in a few candies.

"What are you doing? Coaxing the elderly."

"What are you saying? Came over early to call you, your grandmother said you hadn't gotten up yet and told us not to disturb you, let you sleep a little longer."

"Said you have a car, told us not to rush, there's still time."

"So we just sat down to chat with her," A Guang said, holding melon seeds in his hand, and asked the old lady again, "You're giving these to us voluntarily, right?"

The old lady was all smiles. "Yes, yes, yes, you young people have good teeth, eat more. I still have more. There are so many melon seeds at home, you eat, eat, eat."

A Zheng urged, "Hurry up, Dongzi, we have to go into the water between 9 and 11, and have to sail home before 5 in the afternoon."

"It's only 5, there are still 6 hours."

"That still requires chatting, asking, and looking..."

"What have you all been doing at home these past few days? Lying around like useless people?"

Xiao Xiao said, "Just got back and there's a pile of things. Damn it, I don't know where a pile of relatives popped out from these past few days. I didn't even know my family had so many relatives."

"Haha, my family too. From morning till night there are relatives coming to the door, or sitting at our doorway talking. So many I've never seen, or aren't familiar with."

Ye Yaodong laughed as he listened. "So it's not just my family. Everyone is the same, then I'm relieved."

"Fortunately, they are all looking for my father..."

"Then they probably didn't praise you less."

"That is true..."

Ye Yaodong said, "You guys sit for a while, I'll wash up, eat a meal, and I can leave immediately."

"Then hurry up."

After he finished eating, he went to find his father again, told his father, and then let the workers in the factory drive the tractor to send them to the city shipyard.

It wasn't just the few of them. He also called his eldest brother and second brother along to help, as well as their own brothers and his old father. A mighty group of people set off sitting in the tractor trailer.

"Dongzi, aren't you too majestic now? Just give an order when going out, and someone has to drive a car specifically to send you."

"You just know? Dongzi has been like this for a long time. Ever since he had a group of workers in his hands, he just needs to open his mouth to do anything, and there are plenty of people scrambling to work for him."

"This going out already has an exclusive car, an exclusive driver, definitely the style of a big boss..."

Ye Yaodong looked at the tractor that was leaking wind on all sides and couldn't feel proud at all, although it wasn't wrong.

"Wait until I buy a small car, then you can say that."

Although it was a convertible, the grade was a bit low, and what they were sitting on was still a bench. They would get a mouthful of dust just by opening their mouths. What was there to be proud of?

Exclusive car, exclusive driver...

"Can do! Already eyeing a small car!"

"If you ask me, it's just a small car, Dongzi can afford it..."

"Stop bragging. You guys each scrape together a few tens of thousands for me, then I can really afford it."

"Stop crying poor..."

Everyone sat in the tractor trailer, joking and teasing all the way, and they were happy, so the time wasn't that hard to endure.

Today was indeed worth being happy about. Except for Ye Yaodong who didn't care much, the other three were very expectant and had been thinking about it for a long time.

The shipyard had been waiting for them for a long time.

As soon as the factory manager saw them, he said, "Your boats have been built for two months, and they haven't been put into the water yet. They are taking up space."

"Before, you kept urging to catch the delivery period. Originally, one boat was to be delivered first, and the other boat had to wait a few months. A few months ago, you told me not to rush, and let me deliver both boats together. Now they are all built for you, and you have no time to come back to sail them..."

Ye Yaodong explained with a smile, "Sorry, we went to another province, so we told you in advance not to rush, but we weren't sure exactly when we would be back."

"Where did you go to make a fortune?"

"First went to Wenzhou, later went to the Zhoushan fishing grounds, stayed for more than half a year, so it was delayed."

The factory manager gave a thumbs up upon hearing this. "Really incredible, quite bold. Young and actually dared to sail so far?"

"To make money, no choice."

"Also capable, not old, just the four of you partnering, actually bought two big boats. Ten-thousand-yuan households."

He looked at them with new eyes. Those who came to the shipyard to order boats were basically middle-aged or elderly, or some thirty or forty-year-olds with some age.

Those like them were generally several brothers working together for the elders in the family, the old leading the young, a whole family working together, and then splitting some money.

It was mainly the elders in the family who led, but it turned out to be the opposite for these few young people.

These few were truly young, and they were all ten-thousand-yuan households. Those who could afford those two boats were definitely ten-thousand-yuan households without a doubt.

A Zheng said, "What's this? Dongzi already has twenty-something boats, more than just ten-thousand-yuan households."

The shipyard manager was truly surprised. Just as he wanted to ask a few more questions, Ye Yaodong urged him, "Go sail the boats first, no time."

"Everything is already arranged, two old masters are following you onto the boat to sing the fishing net song... You go look at the boats first..."

"Okay."

"The whole city probably can't find a few outstanding youths like you, right?"

Ye Yaodong pointed to the few beside him. "Joking, they are also outstanding youths. Young, not even 30 yet, and they are all ten-thousand-yuan households."

"Right, right, right, didn't expect you all to be so capable... Young people are capable..."

A Guang said with a smile, "Stop it, how can we compare to you... already a boat boss."

"Stop bragging, hurry up..."

After they checked the fishing boats and there were no problems, they waited until the time was about right, and everyone worked together to push the fishing boats into the water.

The factory also helped set off a string of firecrackers to add to the joy.

Then the people who followed to help were divided into two groups, and they boarded the two boats respectively.

After Ye Yaodong boarded the boat, he was also thinking there that the four of them partnered for two boats. At first, he let A Zheng and Xiao Xiao take 60%, and he and A Guang take 40%, so that they two could lead the boat.

Anyway, he and A Guang both had big boats at home, and for this boat they partnered on, A Guang also paid his own money, which had nothing to do with his father. He only needed to take the dividends, no need to manage it.

Later, A Zheng and Xiao Xiao were worried that they paid too much money and would have pressure, thinking about only booking one, or splitting 50-50.

He said, let them wait until the delivery period to see. If they still felt pressure, then he would take a bit more and put in a bit more capital.

Then since they came back, they had been busy, and until now, they hadn't officially chatted about this division.

Last night, when A Qing prepared money for him, she asked him how much money he had to pay out, and he realized this problem.

Don't know if they had thought about it...

It is estimated that their thoughts now are different from before. They should all be rejoicing that they booked the big boat in advance. This year, everyone made a lot of money, so how could they not be able to pay?

Anyway, he brought extra money. He has many boats on hand now, so it doesn't matter to him, but this matter must be told and set in advance.

Just now when they boarded the boats separately, A Zheng and Xiao Xiao boarded separately, and he boarded with A Zheng.

At this time, A Zheng was in the wheelhouse with his father, listening to the old master explaining how to operate it.

He pondered that after returning, he would find A Zheng to chat.

Actually, they should have discussed it in advance last night, but he didn't realize it, and it was indeed that he had too many boats on hand, and he couldn't manage it, and didn't think about every boat.

Currently, he has 17 small boats on hand, 16 are rented out, and he only kept one on hand.

The Fengshou, he owns 30% of the shares.

The Shunfeng, he also owns 30% of the shares.

Now there are two more boats, the total share of the two boats is 20 parts, and he also owns 40%.

He has a Dongsheng himself, and a fresh-catching boat, and a 100,000-plus Ocean-going No. 1 that hasn't officially fished yet.

And the Zhoushan shipyard booked a 40-meter one, and 4 Dongsheng copy versions.

Counting them up, he is indeed the veritable Boat King Dong.

And with the addition of these two new boats, his fresh-catching boat can connect to 6 boats, including the Mancang of Zhou Da's brothers.

Actually, the Lan brothers nearby and their cousins originally also partnered on a boat, but later the cousins fell out and withdrew. It is estimated that they should be very regretful now.

If calculated this way, after there are more boats, when the fishing volume is large, his fresh-catching boat will definitely be able to earn more next year.

He was a bit eager to spend money again, always feeling that money is lost if held in hand.

After the things here are busy, he thought about going to the town to find Hong Wenle in two days. Three days have passed until today, and in two more days, there should be news.

By the way, let Hong Wenle tell him the regulations and arrangements for running a fish cannery, and clarify the ideas, so he can decide.

There were many people on the boat helping, and he didn't need to work. Ye Yaodong was immersed in his own thoughts and thinking.

Until a net of goods was dragged up, he followed everyone to rejoice.

Then he went to find A Zheng to chat and talk.

"What's the matter Dongzi, hahaha, sailing such a big boat is also quite simple, haha, the harvest is quite good..."

"I'm asking you about the boat share. After we dock and go back later, don't we have to pay the final payment?"

"Share? Hehe, didn't you say I and Xiao Xiao 60%, you and A Guang 40%?"

"Right, but weren't you hesitant at that time? Felt you couldn't handle it? Later it wasn't completely settled. Now we have to pay money, it must be set. I'm not saying I want to take the big share, it's just that everyone must be clear."

"That's true, that must be clear. What do you say?" A Zheng looked at him nervously.

"What do I say? I'm still the same as before. If you determine 60%, then I'm 40%, and I also have to tell A Guang. This matter must be clear and explicit, can't be vague."

"Right, correct. Fortunately, you kept persuading us to book two boats at that time, otherwise it really wouldn't be enough to split. Fortunately, I listened to you. I said following you can make a fortune, hahaha."

"Don't be happy too early, wait until you make a big fortune before being happy."

"Can't be wrong, you are Mazu's godson, sea transport is powerful, fortunately I listened to you. Wait until next year to go to Zhoushan, I will also earn a few ten-thousand-yuan household status back to be stylish!"
