Chapter 159: Agreed
The four had just run a short distance when they heard there were good things for them, and their footsteps immediately braked and stopped.
"Have good things?"
"Really or fake?"
"Listen?"
They stopped and waited for a while, and Wang Maoquan chased after them panting.
"Why are you running? Told you not to run, don't run, still want to run."
The four's representative Ye Yaodong smiled embarrassedly and said: "Manager Wang, is there anything else you want from us?"
Wang Maoquan supported his knees with both hands, bent over, and panted heavily. "You guys are all from the fishing village, right? Can all swim and go to sea?"
Ye Yaodong looked at the other three and nodded. "Mm, yes."
"That's good, our young master has a few friends who came early to play, bored and want to go to sea to try sea fishing. Because it was a temporary idea, the small boat was also borrowed, so we are short of a few boatmen. Thought you guys are fishermen from the fishing village, so I came out to see if you guys left."
"Ah? Now?" Ye Yaodong looked up at the sun that had already set in the sky. "It's 3 o'clock now, won't it be night when we return?"
"About the same, won't go for a whole night, five yuan reward per person, how about it? Do you want to go? If it wasn't for the night, I wouldn't give such a high reward. Actually, you don't have to do anything, just watch on the small boat, just in case."
The four exchanged glances. Just going to sea once, five yuan is not low.
"Do you want to go? Give me an answer now, otherwise, I'll go find someone else. There are quite a lot of boatmen at the pier. I also thought that I have traded with you many times, so I can feel at ease finding you."
"Can we discuss it?"
"Speed up."
The four walked to the corner, circled, and whispered there.
"Want to go? Five yuan is so high, carrying goods at the pier for a day is only one or two yuan."
"Go? Will be back in a few hours."
"Want to go? Then what about the huge money in our pockets?"
"Yes, what about the money in our pockets? Carrying so much out is not at ease, what if it's lost?"
They discussed one sentence after another, all inclined to want to go. Ye Yaodong thought for a while. "If you all want to go, I'll tell him we go home first, report to the family, and then come over? By the way, put the money away."
"Can it? Don't know if they are in a hurry, can they wait for us?"
"Try? Go ask?"
"Go, go ask!"
The four immediately straightened up and walked towards Wang Maoquan, who was waiting impatiently on the side.
"That's it, Manager Wang, we want to agree to you, it's just that we want to go home, report to the family, look..."
"Just make a phone call, right? Your village should have a phone, right?"
Ye Yaodong was speechless for a moment, decided to tell the truth. "Mm... actually, it's so much money, we are not at ease putting it on us, want to take it back. Look, are you in a hurry? If not in a hurry, we go back first, and then come over immediately?"
Wang Maoquan frowned, only felt they were really troublesome, but had already called them just now, thinking the small boat and fishing rods were just borrowed, shouldn't be fast to send over, should be fine.
"Forget it, forget it, I'll lend you the car to ride back, and then come over immediately, at most give you one hour, if late, I'll call someone else."
The four were instantly beaming with joy. Being able to earn more money easily, who wouldn't be happy.
"Many thanks, lend us the car to ride back, won't take an hour."
Wang Maoquan took them to a row of bicycles on the side. "The car is there, but ugly words are said in front, don't think about riding the bicycle back and not coming, I know you are White Sand Village, if you dare to deduct the bicycle, you all have to eat and walk around."
Ye Yaodong stared. Isn't this questioning their character?
"This can't be, we are all decent people, speak and count, not to mention who can't deduct the hotel's."
How could he have this idea? A bicycle is only 200 yuan, isn't this cutting off his own wealth? He was thinking about selling more goods to them in the future.
Fatty and the others also repeatedly guaranteed that they would never do this kind of thing. Although they were used to being idle before, they had never done this kind of three-handed thing, and had only stolen fruits on the mountain.
"Mm, you guys wait here, I'll go get another key."
After he left, the four whispered a few words.
A-Zheng curled his lips in disdain. "Look down on people, just a bicycle."
Xiao Xiao understood quite well. "Not at ease is also normal, after all, it's quite valuable."
"Hey hey hey... what are you doing? Don't touch randomly, in case it falls, you can't afford to pay."
"We're just curious to see..."
"Go go go, give you the key, hurry up and return."
"Good."
Ye Yaodong took the bicycle key, asked which two cars, and rode home with two people in one car, riding fast on the uneven yellow soil road.
After arriving home, Lin Xiuqing was still sorting shellfish at the back door. He stood in the house and shouted directly to the back door: "A-Qing? A-Qing!"
"Ah? Coming!"
Lin Xiuqing immediately stood up, picked up a water scoop from the water tank, rinsed her hands, wiped them on her apron, and walked out.
The two children heard the movement and rushed into the house first, excitedly hugging his thighs and wanting something delicious.
"Father, Father, our oil cakes, our maltose?"
"Ah?" He looked down at the attachments on his legs. "I didn't have time to bring them, originally wanted to bring them for you, but it was too hurried, next time, next time I'll buy something delicious for you, have something to do today."
The brightness in the two children's eyes immediately dimmed, their faces showing disappointment, and even their shoulders slumped.
Ye Yaodong felt a bit sorry, feeling he had broken his promise to the children, a bit heartbroken.
"Then I'll go buy it later, bring it back for you tonight, if you haven't slept you can eat, if you are asleep, eat tomorrow morning? How about it?"
Ye Chenghu heard this and immediately became energetic again, looked up and said seriously: "Good, this time you can't lie again!"
"Good."
Lin Xiuqing glared at the two children first when she entered the house, and then asked suspiciously: "Why did you come back so fast? Just left not long ago, is there anything missing?"
"Talk in the house," Ye Yaodong hugged her shoulders and went straight to the house, and let the two children go out to play by themselves.
As soon as he entered the house, he took out all the banknotes in his pocket. On the way, he was afraid of losing them, so he controlled the handlebar with one hand and covered his pocket with one hand, unless it was a turn or a meeting car, he would put both hands on the handlebar.
Lin Xiuqing stared at the large handful of banknotes in his hand, stunned. "Why so many? This must be several hundred?"
As soon as Lin Xiuqing entered the house, she glared at the two children before asking suspiciously, "Why are you back so soon? You haven't been gone long. Did you leave something behind?"
She grabbed a large handful of money in her hand, and couldn't believe it. "This... this is too much, right? Why is it so valuable?"
Never knew that making money could be so simple?
She wove fishing nets at home every day, from morning to night couldn't earn one yuan, he just went to scour the sea casually, and earned such a large handful of money, how could it be so dreamy?
Feels like a dream!
"Mm, the goods are good, just happened to meet the boss of Hongsheng celebrating his birthday, they bought it all very simply," Ye Yaodong said while continuing to take money from the small pocket in front of his chest. "This is what Little Sister earned, you help me take it over later and tell her the fish sold for 316 yuan 80 cents, gooseneck barnacles sold for 64 yuan, plus green crabs and conch shells, rounded to 390 yuan."
"Ah?"
Ye Yaodong saw that she was stunned, and repeated it again. "If you can't remember, just take this money to her, wait for me to return, and tell her tomorrow."
"Where are you going? Don't you take it to her yourself? I just seemed to hear you say you were going out?"
"Yes, this is also what I want to tell you. That manager of Hongsheng wants to invite a few boatmen to go to sea for one night, giving five yuan reward, I plan to go with Xiao Xiao and the others, so specifically borrowed two bicycles to ride back, take the money back first, and report by the way."
"Why is there still one that only invites for one night? Do they want to open a big boat to go to sea to catch fish for one night?" Lin Xiuqing was confused by his series of operations.
"No, said it's sea fishing, a few young masters go out to sea afraid of being unsafe, so invite a few boatmen who understand water, just in case."
"Is that so? This reward is too much, right? Will there be danger?" Her eyebrows frowned. "Or don't go?"
"We have already agreed, those young masters are born well, definitely cherish life more than anyone, won't take risks, we estimate it's just going through the motions, it's fine."
"Okay, then go early and return early, I'll get you a coat, the wind at sea is big, it will be colder at night than during the day, you wear one more, don't catch a cold. Also, be careful on the boat, pay attention to safety, don't stand on the deck alone, stand with everyone, it's safer, it doesn't matter if you can't earn money, people must be careful, return safely..."
"No, they said they wanted to go sea fishing. A few young masters are afraid it's not safe to go out to sea, so they hired a few boatmen who understand the water, just in case."
He couldn't help but open his five fingers, his palm passed through her hair, buckled the back of her head, leaned over and kissed her soft lips, sucked hard, saw her face instantly flushed, and then smiled and said: "Don't worry, I have a sense of proportion, don't worry, sleep early at night, don't wait for me."
Lin Xiuqing said with a slight lift of the corner of her mouth: "Mm, I'll get you clothes."
She casually took the clothes in her hand and went to find him clothes, then handed them to him.
Ye Yaodong took the clothes, held her palm. "I'm leaving, will return at night, remember to lock the doors and windows, I will knock on the window to call you when I return."
"Mm."
In her concerned gaze, he smiled and walked straight out.
She casually placed the money in her hand on the bed, went to find clothes for him, and handed them to him.
"Got it."
"Hmm."
Under her concerned gaze, he smiled and walked straight out.
The two children were playing at the door. Seeing him come out, they didn't forget to remind him, "Dad, remember to bring us oil cakes and malt sugar when you come back."
"Got it."
