Ye Yaodong said, "Then Father, your ambition is so big, you have to go to the mountain to kowtow more often, ask the ancestors to bless you. This ancestral grave smoking green smoke is definitely not enough, the ancestors have to show their spirits."

"If this really comes true, I can kneel down forever."

Ye Yaopeng laughed, "How dare I think about this, as long as Brother Ahai can learn the craft of shipbuilding, he won't have to worry for the rest of his life."

Ye Yaodong sighed, his eldest brother really couldn't even think about it.

Even if he has the craft of shipbuilding, so what, that's just working as a master, dirty all his life on the boat and off the boat, knocking and hitting.

And Ye Chenghe can be a big boss if he earns well.

But there is no way, vision limits imagination.

For his eldest brother, the best he can think of is probably Brother Ahai becoming a big master, not having to worry for the rest of his life, and it's decent, everyone has to politely call him master when they see him.

It just so happens that his father has the same idea as his eldest brother, both feeling that being able to learn the craft of shipbuilding is better than anything.

This actually depends on Ye Chenghai himself.

"Let's eat first, tired for a whole morning, also hungry, go get the meal first."

The three brothers nodded and went back to their rooms to get their lunch boxes.

Ye Yaodong thought that there was no rush to raise funds for everyone to find him to exchange money now. He would ask Old You to calculate the account book later to see how much money there was first.

The money he received now was all organized and collected, and he didn't count it, anyway, he counted it when he received it.

Old You's account book also had notes one by one, asking him is faster than him counting for a long time.

Anyway, there are two days left, collecting for two days should be about the same, those who wait for their family to receive the money will naturally be at ease.

He is not only from their village here, but also from nearby villages, all are relatives, one calls another, so they are all concentrated here.

Ye Yaodong didn't walk with his eldest and second brother when he went back to get the lunch box, and at this time the two brothers were also talking about him.

"Dong Zi is really able to earn... several million..."

Ye Yaohua was also full of melancholy when he heard it, "Yes, I don't even dare to think about it."

"Isn't it? Always felt he has a lot of money, many boats, but didn't even think about estimating the value of these things of his. Just now the shipyard boss said several million, which really scared me."

"Me too, usually didn't think much about it, my own money couldn't be counted, and didn't think much about the value of his boats, just felt he had money."

"Really scary, calculate it and there really are several million."

Ye Yaohua nodded desperately.

"You said you, you joined the Fengshou boat with Dong Zi long ago, why didn't you know how to learn from him."

Ye Yaohua shook his head again, "How can this be learned? He is so willing to spend money, as soon as he has money, he spends it, buying boats and shops, how can I be willing."

"Yes, the money earned is hated to be saved a little more, how can I be willing to spend it all after earning it."

"My wife is also unwilling, it was so poor a few years ago, and the money was cheated, that was really afraid of having no money on hand."

"So this is fate, Dong Zi is willing to spend, we are not willing to spend, worry about this, worry about that."

Ye Yaopeng was also very melancholy when he thought about it. It's only been a few years, and the gap between the three brothers has been pulled very large.

Can't catch up with a finger of Dong Zi.

Ye Yaohua said hesitantly, "Then Dong Zi also told us in the morning, this life's last chance to get rich..."

Ye Yaopeng was also stunned and stopped, "Didn't he just say it casually?"

"Say it casually? Can't be?"

"Didn't he say he didn't know what chance to get rich, he had to go see it?"

"Then why did he say that? He didn't even know it himself?"

"Then ask clearly later?"

"Then ask clearly."

The two brothers separated and went back to their rooms to get their lunch boxes, and then walked slowly, continuing to talk.

"Second brother, if Dong Zi says buying land to get rich, then I think this matter is hanging."

"How to say?"

"We should buy land back home, convenient and close. When we go back for the New Year, if we have money, we will go to the city to see. What does it mean to buy it outside? We won't go to the Magic City, then buying it is throwing money into the water, the local people will take it back directly, buying it in the city at least someone is watching, and it's closer to our own home."

Ye Yaohua nodded, "Yes, what does it mean to buy it outside? Dong Zi buying land is right, but we don't stay in the Magic City, buying it is in vain."

"Sigh, Dong Zi has money on hand, he can toss it around, it doesn't matter if he loses it, we have to be cautious."

"Eldest brother is right."

"Otherwise, it's fine if Ajiang and Chenghe follow to broaden their horizons. If we don't go out to sea and follow, the loss will be huge. If you don't sail the boat for a week, one person will lose thousands of yuan."

"Yes, that's why I thought it would be fine if Ajiang followed. How can we have time to run around and play. Dong Zi's friends have hired extra people to work, and there is an old man watching, no need to worry."

"Yes, yes."

The two brothers discussed while walking, just right no one was around, now it's meal time, everyone is holding a rice bowl to queue up to buy food, or squatting at the cafeteria entrance to eat.

When they got closer, there were more people, and the two didn't chat anymore.

After eating, they went to find Dong Zi to ask what the last chance to get rich he said in the morning meant? Want to ask clearly, so as not to really slap their thighs and miss it.

But how can this be explained by Ye Yaodong? How to say it?

He could only say that he would know after he went to see it. He hadn't even seen it now, how could he dare to guarantee it, dare to say it so dead?

In his previous life, he only passed by the Magic City once by boat, and he only heard about the Oriental Pearl Tower, heard about the Huangpu River, heard about Pudong and Puxi, and didn't know anything else.

He is even less familiar in this life, he hasn't even been there, how can he tell him?

He didn't have any absolute certainty himself, he couldn't say anything about things he hadn't experienced, so he thought about going to turn around, take a look, and see if there was a chance then.

It doesn't matter if there is no chance, anyway, it is considered to have broadened his horizons in a big city, at least he saw the Magic City at the end of the 80s, and took photos, which is not a gainless trip.

He held this mentality, naturally there would be no loss, mainly going out to see is earning.

Anyway, the work here is left to his father, and it doesn't delay him earning money.

The two brothers were also disappointed when they heard it, thinking he knew some good way to earn money again.

They can't be like him and toss around like this. If they don't go out to sea for a week, the loss will be huge, and they can't afford it.

If it's a natural disaster, then there's nothing to say, everyone follows to rest, now it's nothing, it's uncomfortable to let them earn less money.

Ye Yaodong didn't say anything, the two brothers were a bit disappointed, so they had to say let Ajiang and Chenghe follow, if there is anything, let them discuss it.

However, they also listened to what Dong Zi said before. There is no need to bind themselves so dead to the fishing boat, they can bring a few more people, and it will be the same whether they are on the boat or not.

Occasionally if there is anything, they can stay on shore to rest more. Like his father, he is quite cool now, receiving a salary and earning extra money.

If they train a few more people, they can occasionally go on shore to help their son drive the tractor together. At that time, the two brothers don't have to drive one, and they can earn more money.

Seeing them ask again, Ye Yaodong still said let the two nephews follow, so he forgot it, let those two follow, he can't press the cow to drink water.

Being conservative and steady is not a bad thing, their ideas are not wrong, anyway, his eldest and second brother are now leading the villagers in earning money.

There are also shops in the city at home to collect rent, and they have boats on hand, which can guarantee a rich and comfortable life for the rest of their lives.

The children also have stable jobs, and it will be about the same in the future.

After talking about this topic of getting rich, they talked about the allocation of fishing boats.

"Dong Zi, what do you think about the allocation of fishing boats?"

"How do you want to arrange it? I'm fine with anything, I have no opinion."

He has so many boats, he actually doesn't care about the three shares of the Shunfeng boat, he wants to hear his eldest and second brother's ideas.

Ye Yaopeng frowned, looked at Ye Yaohua again, and then said hesitantly: "Uh, can you redeem those three shares for us..."

Ye Yaodong's net worth of several million is indeed too bluffing, even Ye Yaopeng now feels that his brother is a super big boss, not an ordinary person, and he is instinctively careful when speaking.

"Can."

"We want... ah? You agreed?"

"Agreed, why don't I agree, I have so many boats, where do I lack your little bit, you want to buy those three shares, of course you can."

Both brothers were immediately overjoyed.

Ye Yaohua smiled and said: "We didn't know how to allocate it, thinking that the Shunfeng boat would be the same as the original, and I and the eldest brother would have half of the new boat."

Ye Yaodong said: "Then you are easy to allocate now. Father's share, wait for him to come, you ask him. Now the Shunfeng boat can be divided first, and when the other one arrives, you can also have one each, just discuss the depreciation fee."

"Hey, good, we will discuss with Father later."

"Struggled for many days, if I knew, I would have asked you earlier." Ye Yaopeng smiled easily.

"Why don't you ask me earlier?"

"Hehe, isn't it because I thought you are a big busy person now, so I hesitated whether to mention this matter to you."

"Family doesn't talk about two families, it's not a big deal, if there is really something, the three brothers discuss it and solve it."

Ye Yaohua nodded straight, "Yes, Dong Zi is right."

Ye Yaopeng said again: "Then we can't let you suffer a loss, just calculate the money for the three shares according to the current fishing boat price, and divide it until the end of the month?"

"It doesn't matter if the division is calculated until the end of the month, it's fine to calculate until yesterday. As for the price, don't calculate according to the current fishing boat price, it has already been opened for two years. Just return the three shares to me according to the price bought at that time."

"That's a big difference, now not to mention the new boat has to increase by 1/3, compared to the price bought at that time, it has already increased by almost half."

"Yes, this difference is a bit big, Dong Zi."

Both brothers are very honest.

Ye Yaodong said: "It doesn't matter, no matter what I earned back, don't lack this bit, just return the shares according to the original entry price."

Ye Yaopeng looked at Ye Yaohua, then smiled and said: "Then... then we are not polite."

"It's okay, family doesn't need to be too calculating."

Although he has money, brothers also have to calculate clearly, just make a little concession, just give it to them directly, they will be at a loss.

Giving it to Ye Huimei is naturally different, she is the youngest sister.

Three shares don't have much money, it was a big sum for everyone at that time, but it's different now, it's also small money for his two brothers.

Just return how much money was paid at that time.

At that time, taking this money to pack a big red envelope for Chenghe is also a name to return, and it is no different from giving it away.

"Later we will also buy back Father's one-tenth share. If it doesn't work, then wait for the new boat to arrive, and then give Father half a share for retirement."

Ye Yaodong didn't express an opinion, "You discuss this with Father."

However, he estimated that his father definitely wouldn't want it, originally it was the three brothers who gave him a share for retirement.

How could he be embarrassed to let his eldest and second brother buy it back.

His father is also a particular person, and won't be confused.

Ye Fu sat with a bunch of people chatting and bragging after lunch, and also took out the newspapers from a while ago and read them again to those who hadn't seen them.

Usually, there is no time when people are so complete in these two days, just right for a rest after a meal, he tried his best to talk.

Besides showing off Dong Zi, he also showed off his current cultural level, and he could read newspapers, which made him proud.

The recent newspapers were all turned rotten by him.

If it weren't for many people who had heard it, or finished listening, and went to play cards one after another, he could brag for an afternoon.

When no one listened to his bragging, he looked at the time and it wasn't early, he had to go for a nap, he wouldn't go into the room.

It's hot to death during the day now, days are long and nights are short, Ye Fu gets up at dawn to pick up work, and then takes a nap when it's too hot at noon to work, making up for sleep.

When he went into the room shirtless, humming an unreliable song, the three brothers were still chatting.

"Hey, rare, the three are sitting together for a big meeting?"

"Father, we are discussing the boat."

"Very good, the three brothers have to discuss, three cobblers are better than one Zhuge Liang, you are more knowledgeable than me now, I won't express my opinion, you discuss it yourselves."

Ye Fu lay down directly on his bed, muttering that it was really hot.

Ye Yaopeng said, "Father, we want to discuss something with you."

"What is it." Ye Fu closed his eyes, motionless.

"I and Second Brother ordered a new boat at the shipyard, we just sat and discussed the allocation with Dong Zi, wanting to buy back the three shares in Dong Zi's hands, Dong Zi said it's okay."

"Hmm, very good."

Ye Yaohua said, "Father, we want to buy back the one-tenth share in your hands, do you think it's okay?"

Ye Fu didn't sleep this time, opened his eyes, and sat up.

He thought for a while, and then turned to look at the three people sitting on the small stools.

"You want one boat each, just right to allocate, right?"

Both nodded together.

"Father, if you don't want to, just treat it as we didn't say, if the new boat arrives later, we will give you half a share for retirement for each boat."

Ye Fu was a little gratified, the three sons were not raised in vain, all knew filial piety.

"It's fine if you have this heart, originally that one share was given to me and your mother for retirement by you three brothers, if Dong Zi has no opinion, you don't need to buy it, I will return this one share to you directly."

"I have no opinion, just willing."

"That's good, then just divide this one share to your eldest and second brother, that one share has divided a lot of money in these years. Taking so much for nothing is enough for me and your mother to retire, you three did okay."

Both brothers were overjoyed.

The problem that troubled them for many days was solved in a few words.

They were not afraid to ask, just embarrassed to open their mouths, everyone knows how much money can be divided every month, opening their mouths also means grabbing their money.

Ye Fu asked again: "When do you plan to calculate the account?"

Ye Yaopeng said: "Still follow the old rules at the end of the month, not bad for these half a month."

"That's fine, I will take one last sum, and you will calculate and divide it yourselves starting next month."

"Okay, Father."

Ye Fu asked curiously: "How much money did you buy back Dong Zi's three shares?"

Ye Yaohua took the conversation, "Dong Zi said, just return the shares according to the money paid when bought, brothers don't need to be too calculating."

"Hmm, I have many boats, those boats have earned a lot in these years, all earned back."

"Very good, the three brothers are harmonious, Dong Zi has money, then suffer a little loss, just treat it as helping the two brothers."

A father naturally hopes that his children are harmonious and discuss things.

Brothers are not harmonious, then he as a father will be very difficult to do.

They are very good like this.

Ye Fu looked very gratified, it's fine to earn less money.

"I will call your mother when I am free."

"Must say it, otherwise if the money taken back is less, Mother will scold you."

"Scold me for what, it's not that I was greedy for this money."

Ye Yaodong smiled and said: "Father is diligent in driving the tractor to earn money every day now, definitely can save a big sum at the end of the year to give to Mother, how can Mother be angry."

"Which pot is not opened and which pot is mentioned." Ye Fu said in a low voice and lay back down.

"Father, don't rush to sleep."

"What, what's the matter again?"

"Didn't I wrap up the boats returned by the shipyard? I have to pay a big deposit in two days, I plan to scrape the money in everyone's pockets."

Ye Fu sat up again, "What is scraping? Didn't you save a big sum this month, how is it enough to pay?"

"I'm going to the Magic City in a few days, although it's close, no need to carry all the money, but I have to prepare the money, just in case."

"Need so much to prepare?"

Looking at the eldest son and second son, he couldn't say the specific amount, so he could only be vague.

"Better safe than sorry."

Anyway, he is now able to exchange for 100-yuan banknotes, all exchanged for 100-yuan banknotes, hundreds of thousands don't take up much space, it's okay.

"Then you want to borrow from others?"

"No need to borrow..."

Ye Yaodong told his father his plan.

Ye Fu nodded, "This is a good idea, everyone has to thank you, helping them exchange their money home, saving them trouble."

"Yes, others may not be trusted, I can still make them trust."

"That's of course, all followed you out, and lived on your territory, you have so many boats, who can't trust, can't trust you?"

"Then you wait until you wake up and publicize it for me, I will start collecting money in the afternoon, and call home tomorrow to let A Qing take the first batch of money to people, someone's family received the money, naturally more people will come to exchange."

"Hey, Dong Zi, you can collect a handling fee, bank remittances all collect handling fees, many are 50 yuan."

Ye Fu felt the more he said, the better the idea was, and he was a bit excited.

"We can't exchange money for others for free, people might think we have any purpose, you collect a handling fee, people will be more at ease."

Ye Yaodong thought about it.

Ye Yaohua said: "Dong Zi, Father is right, if you can exchange money directly home here, then everyone is convenient, and everyone can keep looking for you to exchange money, so many people's handling fees can collect a big sum."

"But I can't exchange money for them for a long time, I am afraid of having too much cash on hand."

Ye Fu patted the bed board, "You go home every few days, you can collect a sum before going home, just right to take it back, don't collect it usually."

"This is also true."

Ye Yaodong thought it was okay, he collected a little less, others were also cost-effective, saving everyone from having too much money on hand, also afraid, also uneasy.

It is also good for him to take it back for them when he goes back.

"Dong Zi, then you are no different from a bank, hehe", Ye Yaohua smiled, "You are more convenient than a bank? Some families are in a hurry to use money, just take the money to you, you make a call and let A Qing take it to people's homes."

Ye Yaodong touched his chin, "Then I can't become a private bank."

"Yes, a private bank."

"Then when you publicize later, just say collect a small handling fee, can exchange everyone's money home. Saving them from running to the bank outside to remit money, the remittance slip has to be received in a month or two."

"Hey, okay, then how much money to collect?"

"Just handling fee capped at 10 yuan, less than the bank, workers don't remit much home, just collect a little."

Ye Fu thought and shook his head again, "That 10 yuan is too little, everyone earned a lot of money, capped at 20 yuan, the bank cap is 50 yuan. Workers don't remit much home, a little less, anyway it's more cost-effective than the bank, and fast, can get it immediately."

"Father, you are a traitor."

His father was also trained, and he still thought about earning a sum.

Obviously he was the one who lacked money, wanted to take the money in the villagers' hands to deal with the emergency, but ended up making everyone grateful, and could earn a sum from it.

Capped at 20 yuan per person, 40-something boats, 40-something boat bosses, capped at 800 or 900, plus workers remitting money home, zero and broken handling fees are not small.

The key is that this is not once, it can be several thousand yuan a year.

Sure enough, the richer people are, the easier it is to earn money.

A thought can earn a lot of money, and no capital is needed, just capital flow.
