Chapter 1670
The money Ye Yaodong brought out was brought back, and only a few hundred thousand were spent.
The time node hasn't arrived yet, so nothing can be bought. He is tied up and can only save it for interest first, and spend it next year.
The interest on these millions in the bank every year is also an astronomical figure. He calculated simply, and next year, the interest alone is estimated to be over one million.
Thinking about it this way, it seems a bit cool. Doing nothing, just leaving the money there, and being able to get a Dongyu boat for free in a year.
Instantly, he wasn't anxious anymore. Buying a house now wouldn't increase much in the second year, it could only increase in the long run.
He spent over 8 million to buy a building, and it might not necessarily collect over 1 million in rent in the second year, but putting it in the bank could...
Rational utilization, then it's really not as good as putting it in the bank for a year, and buying it next year when the new policy comes out and commercial housing starts to be developed.
Maximize earnings!
It's really that the current bank interest rate is too impressive. Money rolls money, the rich get richer, and the poor get poorer.
Ye Yaodong figured it out himself, so he didn't struggle anymore. The policy is like this now, there's no way, he can only wait.
As soon as Ye Fu heard he was back, he ran over to find him excitedly.
"Dongzi, how is it?"
"How is what?"
His butt had just sat down, and he hadn't recovered yet, and his father ran over and said this without a beginning or an end.
"Getting a driver's license, didn't you say? When you went to Modu, did you help me ask how to take the test? You didn't forget, and didn't ask for me, did you?"
"Oh, driver's license test? I asked, they said it's theory plus road test, need to be literate, fill out the test paper by hand."
As soon as Ye Fu heard, he frowned tightly, "Still need to write by hand? Where would I know how to write? Even recognizing characters is exhausting. I can barely try to recognize them, how could I possibly know how to write?"
"You go sign up for a literacy class first. Recognizing characters yourself is slow. Take a literacy class for a month or two, and then sign up."
"I won't be able to learn to write in a month or two?"
"I told you to recognize characters, not to write. You go recognize them first. After you recognize them, go to Modu to sign up for learning. You need to learn traffic rules, mechanical common sense, carburetor principles, and so on. When the time comes for the exam, I'll think of a way for you, spend some money to have someone take the exam for you."
Ye Fu was pleasantly surprised, "Can someone take the exam for me?"
"Why not? As long as the person taking the exam takes your admission ticket and writes your name on the test paper."
"Then why should I go to a literacy class? I don't need to go at all. I just need to learn how to drive, and let others take the exam for me."
"Dream on. You have to learn the basic traffic rules, you have to know them, and you have to learn how to repair. The exam can be taken by others, but you have to learn this stuff yourself, otherwise, if the road is a bit complicated, you won't even understand some traffic signs."
"Oh, then how long do I have to learn before I can take the exam?"
"A month or two, depending on your personal learning progress. If you don't pass, of course, you have to retake it."
"Isn't this letting others take the exam?"
"Then you still have to learn it clearly and understand it," Ye Yaodong raised his voice, "Driving is also a very dangerous thing, you have to be responsible for yourself and others."
"Good, good, good, I know, I know, don't get excited."
"If you don't take it seriously and learn the theoretical knowledge well, then don't take the test."
Ye Yaodong glared at his father. If it weren't for the fact that he didn't have time, and his father was so frustrated that day, he wouldn't have sent his father to learn to drive. It's really exhausting.
"Take it, take it, take it, I will definitely be serious."
"Go find a literacy class to attend yourself today. When you graduate from the literacy class, I'll go to Modu to sign you up."
"Good, how much is the registration fee for driving school?"
"300 yuan, I don't need you to pay. You try to get me the literacy class graduation certificate before September 1st."
"Why before September 1st?"
"Because your own grandson Ye Chenghu is being sent to Modu for high school on September 1st. You can take care of him while you go there to take the driver's license test."
"Oh, are you really leaving him alone in Modu?"
"Don't you have me? You go take care of him for a semester first, and talk about the rest after the year. Or hire a nanny when the time comes."
"Oh, then hire a nanny."
"To take care of you?"
"Hehe, no, then I'll take care of him first."
Ye Yaodong glanced at his father unhappily, "Anything else?"
"Nothing, I just came over to ask you, was this trip smooth? What did you do?"
"Not smooth, how are you going to help me?"
"Look at what you're saying, what can I help with?"
"Then why are you still asking."
"Can't I even care?"
Ye Yaodong waved his hand at him, "Nothing, I'm going to take a shower and sleep. You hurry up and find your literacy class."
Thinking about the driver's license test for several days, Ye Fu even dreamed of driving a small car back to the village in glory. How could he bear to give up this opportunity to learn to drive?
Coming out of Ye Yaodong's office, he hurried to find a literacy class excitedly.
Before, he was fishing for three days and drying nets for two, and didn't recognize many characters. He recognized one today and forgot half of it tomorrow, and didn't remember many the day after tomorrow.
Recognizing characters for a month, he might only remember twenty or thirty characters by the next month, and he still needed someone to teach him to remember them firmly.
After returning from the sea, Ye Yaodong went to Modu again. Next, he planned to maintain customer relationships well, and by the way, run around to collect the cargo payments that should be collected.
This is all his own money. If he collects it and puts it in the bank for interest, he doesn't know how much more he will get. It's too wasteful to put it in other people's accounts.
By the way, he was also waiting for his honorary certificate and reward. It had been more than ten days, and it was almost August, so he estimated it would be soon.
When he was socializing every day, treating guests to dinner, playing until the middle of the night, and couldn't get up in the morning, Ye Fu knocked on the door with a bang, bang, bang.
"Dongzi, Dongzi, get up, stop sleeping, big thing, big happy event is here."
Ye Yaodong was startled awake by the thunderous door in his daze, then scratched his bird's nest hair and shouted at the door: "What are you doing? Early in the morning! If you don't have anything important, you're dead."
"I'm your father, who are you saying is dead?"
He was helpless and irritable, and went to open the door with morning grumpiness, "What are you doing, early in the morning, not letting people sleep, you better have something important."
"What? If there's nothing important, you want to hit me? It's almost 10 o'clock, the sun is shining on your butt, and you call this early in the morning?"
Ye Yaodong made a gesture to close the door and ignore him.
Ye Fu hurriedly pushed against the door, "The government has sent you a banner. I can't speak well, so I just let Manager Qi accompany me. You hurry up. I knew you were a night owl now, and calling someone else might not work."
He woke up instantly, "Sent a banner? Didn't they say to wait for the notification to go get the honorary certificate and commendation reward?"
"This is your top merit, so the municipal government sent you the banner first, and then they will notify you of the time to go get the certificate and commendation reward with everyone else."
"Oh."
"Oh what, hurry up and put on some clothes, brush your teeth, wash your face. They are leading people to visit the factory now, accompanying them and talking. You hurry up."
"Got it."
Ye Yaodong was looking for clothes everywhere shirtless. Where did he forget to throw them yesterday?
After much difficulty, he found them in the corner, and smelled a pungent smell of smoke and alcohol. He threw them aside in disgust, and found another clean one from his own trunk to wear.
He had too much nightlife recently, coming back at several o'clock in the morning, and just falling asleep, then taking a shower and washing his hair after getting up the next day.
It was too late to take a shower now, but washing his hair was still possible. Anyway, it was midsummer, and it would be dry in a while, otherwise, his head would be too smelly.
Ye Yaodong washed up simply, rinsed his head, wiped it casually, and hurried to get his banner.
"Our boss is here..."
"Eh? So young, the younger generation is to be feared, hehe..."
"Boss, this is Secretary Yang who came to send the banner..."
"This is our boss Ye Yaodong, the whole factory belongs to him alone."
"Amazing, your factory is also a key point of concern for the military. Amazing, you've made another great contribution now."
Ye Yaodong hurriedly stepped forward with a smile to greet and shake hands with them.
"Hello, hello, I'm really sorry to keep you waiting for so long. I was socializing too late last night, and only got up at this hour. Ashamed, ashamed."
"It's okay, haha, to be able to build such a big factory at such a young age, the effort put in is imaginable."
"Where, you're overpraising."
Secretary Yang handed the banner in his hand to him with both hands, "Come, accept it, this is your honor. What's written on it is 'Defending Territory, Heroic and Fearless', and the signature is from the Navy Warship."
"Because we are going to borrow our auditorium to distribute rewards and commendations, so when we came over to discuss, we brought your banner along and entrusted us to help send it, and then notify you to go to the auditorium to receive the award in a week."
"Thank you, you've worked hard."
Ye Yaodong happily accepted it with both hands. This military honor is not easy to get, much harder than what the government gives.
This is also his first military banner. He already has several government ones.
Before, when he salvaged a small unmanned underwater vehicle, he didn't get a banner, only a commendation honor, which shows the gold content of the military banner.
Sending a banner now can be considered the highest affirmation given.
"Actually, I don't need to make a trip. I'm just curious about what the factory that is pointed out for concern looks like, so I came to take a look. By the way, there is also the quota for the trade fair that was promised to be given to you last year. I also need to come and notify you to prepare and issue the documents to you."
"When is the trade fair?"
"In September, held in Modu. Generally, only state-owned enterprises and foreign-invested enterprises can participate. You are given an exception here."
Ye Yaodong bowed solemnly to thank him, "Thank you very much."
"You're welcome. You have made a contribution to our territorial integrity, helped to see through the ghosts' schemes, defended the territory, and helped to detain the people, allowing us to control absolute initiative."
"This is all what I should do. Anyone who encounters this matter will have to fight with all their might to destroy their conspiracy. This is also everyone's credit..."
Ye Yaodong was extremely humble and polite.
The two of them talked one sentence after another, one praising and one humble, and while talking, they visited the entire factory and finished the introduction.
Ye Yaodong also asked people to call Fatty, booked a table there, and after visiting the factory, led several people to Fatty's place to eat and drink, and treated them well, before sending them away.
"Damn, really tired. Talking to officials is exhausting, I don't even know how to answer."
Ye Fu nodded in deep agreement, "You can still understand, I can't understand at all. I can't hear a word, so I hurried to call you this morning."
Ye Yaodong wiped his sweat, it was hot, and his heart was tired.
"Dongzi, you're really awesome, you can even get a banner sent by the troops."
"Of course, don't look at who your father is? What can't be done? I have also made a huge contribution to the country."
Be humble when talking to others, and brag as much as you want when talking to your own people.
"Look at how capable you are."
"It's a pity that I didn't sink their ship directly. That would be called awesome, that would be enough to get on the national newspaper to be considered a face."
"That would be my ship sinking. It's good like this now, no loss, and they were all caught and detained. The fishermen working nearby all have to thank me for the honor I gave, a free honor."
"Tsk tsk tsk, then after receiving the award in the auditorium, shouldn't we arrange a celebration banquet?"
"We'll see when the time comes, I'll call you if needed."
"You have to say it in advance, it's not easy to prepare a dozen tables temporarily, good ingredients have to be prepared in advance."
"Can't be in advance, I also have to see the people, discuss with everyone, and arrange it only if they are willing."
"Alright then."
"Calculate the accounts, I'm going home to sleep. Drinking at night, drinking during the day, my head is confused."
The alcohol from this morning hasn't sobered up yet, and it was poured in at noon again. My feet are a bit floating now, it's just right to make up for a nap when I go back, and I have to continue drinking at night.
Making money is really hard.
However, before the day of receiving the award, it was affected by the typhoon, and the fishing boats returned to the port one after another.
His few large ships also returned from the deep sea one after another two days later.
Taking advantage of this break, he asked finance and Old You to clear the accounts of the few fishing boats.
The few boats near the sea are basically settled monthly. Sometimes the fishing boats are at sea, the time is not so coincidental, and there are also those placed at the beginning of the month.
This month of July also happened to be delayed to the beginning of August.
After they finished counting and settling the accounts, the three childhood friends suddenly came to find him together.
"Dongzi!"
"Hey, have money, treat us to a drink tonight!"
"Damn, who is actually making money?" A Zheng cursed.
Ye Yaodong apologized with a smile, "I'm making it, it's all made by me, I earn the most, I'll treat!"
The three were satisfied then, "That's more like it."
Xiao Xiao: "Exhausting, haven't been ashore for almost a month."
A Guang also said: "Yeah, didn't see Dongzi the last time I came ashore. The bluefin tuna left was given by my father-in-law for us to drink. Didn't see you the time before that either. It seems like I haven't seen you much in the first half of this year. You haven't been in the deep sea the whole time, have you?"
"Pretty much, I rested for a few days after catching the tuna last time, stayed home for a few days, and then went to sea for a week after coming over. I've been ashore recently."
A Zheng looked at him with glowing eyes, "Heard you were a hero once..."
"What hero or dog bear, it was just luck. Let's go, collect your cargo payments, go out to eat together tonight, and take you to play."
"Okay."
The three nodded in response, and then walked out together.
"Dongzi, are you free tomorrow?" A Guang asked.
"What? Whether I'm free depends on what it is."
"We want to go to the shipyard tomorrow to order a large ship of about 500 tons, similar to your Ocean-going ship."
Ye Yaodong raised his eyebrows and looked at the three of them, "Are you ordering one each?"
"Right, we all want to get one each."
"Okay, let's go together after waking up tomorrow. I suggest you order separately, don't order in the same factory, run to a few more factories, compare, and strive to get it sooner."
"This is for sure."
Xiao Xiao sighed and said: "Didn't expect your eldest brother and second brother to be so quiet, and directly opened a large ship back."
A Zheng: "Yeah, suddenly too courageous, right?"
"How is this called sudden? They all watched me get rich, so they must be tempted. Originally, the two wanted to order one together last year, but later A Hai advised them to order one each, otherwise the raw materials would keep rising in price, so they hardened their hearts to separate and get one each."
A Guang: "Still quite rich!"
"It's okay, they've saved for many years, and borrowing a little from me is enough."
A Guang: "Should have earned a lot in these two months."
A Zheng: "We also thought about borrowing a little from you if we are short of money."
"Okay, small matter, you should have bought it long ago."
Xiao Xiao: "It's not that we thought the money on hand was too short? Thinking about saving a little more before buying."
Ye Yaodong mocked: "Yeah, and then the more you save, the more expensive the ship gets."
"Who could have thought, compared to three or four years ago, it's doubled. Damn it, what we earned hasn't risen as much as the price."
"Exactly..."
The four walked out while cursing, and after each rode their motorcycles, they stopped.
They still lived in the base camp dormitory area, except for A Guang who moved out to rent with Chenghe.
Ye Yaodong rode his bike to Fatty's place to order dishes first, and after they took the money back and put it away, they went to Fatty's place to eat together.
Now as long as there is socializing and eating, basically don't let the fat water flow into other people's fields, and all choose to go to Fatty's place.
"Yo, Boss Ye is patronizing again, hurry up and please come in."
"A Guang, A Zheng, Xiao Xiao will also come over later, go play together after eating?"
"Okay, without you leading, we have no way to play. It's rare that they are all free, everyone is here today."
Ye Yaodong rolled his eyes, "Talking nonsense, making it seem like I led you astray."
"Isn't it? It's all you who started it, it's all you who led us to those romantic places!"
"I'm sharing blessings, I think of you when there are good things, and I want to take you to feel it everywhere. Forget it, I won't take you tonight! No conscience, saying this."
"Ouch, my fault, my fault!" Fatty slapped his own mouth, "My broken mouth, my fault, I'll treat tonight!"
"That's more like it."
"You go sit in the private room first, I'll go arrange the dishes, and by the way, arrange the work for the night, so it's easy to leave after eating."
"Okay, you go get busy, I'll wait for them here."
It didn't take long, the three rode motorcycles over together. With motorcycles, the speed is awesome, the dishes hadn't been served yet, and the people had already arrived.
"Fatty, why do I feel like you're fat again?"
"Talking nonsense, what kind of eyes do you have, looking at fish every day, have you become fish eyes? Whitish, can't see people clearly?"
Fatty stood up, pulled the stool away, twisted a few times, showing that he was not fat.
"See, how silky I am, where am I fat?"
Ye Yaodong smiled and picked up his chopsticks and knocked on the table, "Come, twist a few more times, to help the fun."
Fatty directly took off his clothes, exposing his fat, white and tender, his chest even sagging...
He twisted his waist and hips coquettishly, shaking his fat body.
"Ugh..."
"You're too disgusting, hurry up and put your clothes on. With that fat body of yours, even pigs aren't as fat as you."
"Stop twisting, it hurts my eyes, can't take it, hurry up and call a few service girls in to pour tea, let me wash my eyes."
"I'm going to get styes!"
Fatty didn't feel ashamed, and even walked to their side and twisted a few times.
"It was you who asked me to help the fun! I sacrificed my looks! Look, you must look at me, open your eyes a little wider!"
He even ran to Ye Yaodong's side, supporting Ye Yaodong's eyelids with both hands, trying to pry his eyes open a little wider.
"You get the hell away, isn't it disgusting, I won't take you to the Heaven on Earth later!"
"Are you sure? If you don't take me, I won't put on my clothes, and I won't let you out of this door."
A Guang couldn't take it anymore and shouted loudly: "Little sister, service little sister, hurry in and pour tea."
Fatty still paid attention to his image in front of his employees, so he didn't twist anymore, walked to his seat and sat down, but still shirtless.
Others also took off their vests and short sleeves one after another, also shirtless.
"So damn hot! Eating a meal later can make you sweat a few pounds!"
Fatty waved away the little sister who sent tea in, stood up and poured tea for them one by one.
"Go take a shower after eating, go sing after taking a shower, so as not to smoke the little girls."
Ye Yaodong rolled his eyes at you, "Who said I want to order little girls? Can't I just sing?"
"What's the point of that? Don't tell me, you're just eating vegetarian when you treat guests? Stingy!"
"Once the wife leaves, the courage of a bear and leopard appears."
"It's because the wife left, isn't this freedom?"
"You better be careful."
"Rest assured, the wife is always the wife!"
Ye Yaodong knew a little bit, Fatty also found a lover here.
Sigh, the word color is a knife on the head, men are indeed easy to change for the worse when they have money!
Fortunately, the other three are still very honest. A Guang, I bet he doesn't dare to be dishonest, and the other two are probably purely floating at sea all the time, have no time, and are usually tired to death, have no too many thoughts.
Fatty is different, opening such a big seafood restaurant, a veritable boss, with money and plenty of time, unlike them who are tired like dogs at sea every day, he also has plenty of energy, and will find fun for himself when bored.
They have known for a long time, just tacitly.
"Don't look at me like that, what's the disdain, this is normal! Dongzi is the abnormal one, so much money, looks handsome, how many little girls like him when he goes out, he keeps himself clean, damn, wasting that skin."
"If I grew up like you, I wouldn't need to spend money, people would have to pay me, begging me to sleep. Wasted, might as well swap faces with us two."
Ye Yaodong said unhappily: "Who wants to swap with you."
Fatty looked at A Guang again, "Your father is still cool, one home here, one home there, the younger he finds. He suffered enough before, now he enjoys great blessings in his old age, so cool. As long as he can take it, he can be a new groom every night."
Xiao Xiao also looked at A Guang, "Don't you say something about your father?"
A Guang said calmly: "Say what? He's happy, my mother has been gone for decades. He's old now, can't he enjoy some blessings? It's good to have someone accompany him and coax him to be happy, and it doesn't cost much money."
"You're still the one who can think it through."
Ps: Recovered, under everyone's comfort and encouragement, I started to pick up coding again during the day, trying not to stay up late, trying to restore the 0 o'clock update, so as not to let everyone stay up late with me.
