Chapter 419: The Net Hauler Suddenly Overloaded

~11 min read 2,152 words

Seeing that the workers working beside him were also not eating steamed buns, but cakes, Lin Guangyuan also took a hard bite of the light cake in his hand.

It was dry, and he almost choked. He quickly sent a mouthful of water in.

Now he finally knew how miserable Ye Chenghai was at that time. Eating these, it's strange if he has the strength to work. It's not an adult strong laborer, and an adult strong laborer can't stand it either.

After working for three more days, Ye Yaodong saw that Lin Guangyuan's face was getting worse day by day, and he was actually getting angry and stubborn, and didn't talk to him anymore.

He was also calm and composed, pretending not to see it, and seeing how many days he could persist.

On the evening of the fourth day, Lin Guangyuan didn't have a stinky face, but cried and hugged his arm, "Little Uncle-in-law, I am my aunt's own nephew, you still charge me money for eating a mouthful of rice, there is no justice... ah... no... no..."

Lin Guangyuan's dry wailing stopped instantly, and then he quickly straightened his body again, "I work outside, I didn't eat yours! Why do I still have to earn food money for you?"

"Then didn't you live in mine? Didn't you eat breakfast? Didn't you eat dinner?"

Lin Guangyuan said angrily: "Not doing it anymore, going home tomorrow."

Ye Yaodong put his arm around his shoulder and sat down, "Giving up so soon? You patted your chest and guaranteed me two days ago, saying you would earn ten yuan."

"But you can't pit me! I ate so well on the first day, and there was only light cake with water for the next few days. Who can stand this contrast? Not doing it anymore, not doing it no matter what!" Lin Guangyuan sat beside him angrily, kicking his legs.

"The first day was Fatty giving you a small stove, the next few days are the life of a normal person working. Do you want to be like this in the future?"

"Don't want to, I'd rather farm at home."

"But farming can't save much money all year round, A-Yuan, have you ever thought about what you want to do in the future?"

Lin Guangyuan was confused for a moment, lowered his eyelids, and remained silent.

When he was in school before, the teacher also asked the students what they wanted to do when they grew up?

At first, one by one, they said enthusiastically that they wanted to be doctors, nurses, teachers, and police officers. As a result, a classmate suddenly stood up and scolded the teacher for being a stinky old nine.

Since then, he felt that reading was not as good as farming.

"No ideas?"

Ye Yaodong saw that he was silent and felt it was normal. Everyone has been confused about life.

Lin Guangyuan said honestly: "Don't know what to do."

"Then go back and study for a few more years. Now, to be a worker, you need at least a junior high school education, a high school education."

"Don't want to read."

"Then do you think reading is comfortable, or is it comfortable to work?"

"Of course it's reading, but reading is so boring, wasting time sitting there."

Ye Yaodong thought about it and said to him: "Have you seen the four soldiers living in the old house? Do you have any ideas?"

Lin Guangyuan glanced at him and thought about it, "Go to be a soldier? Maybe, they look so cool, they are very powerful in fighting, and they look very capable of fighting."

Ye Yaodong: "..."

"Now it is said that being a soldier also requires junior high school education, so go back and read for a few more years! It is better than you going out to work and farming at home."

Doing business is good, but he sees that their family doesn't have this brain, they are all honest people.

He has passed half his life in a muddle, and he doesn't have this brain either. He can brag and talk nonsense, but he can do it.

"You just want me to continue reading!" Lin Guangyuan wrinkled his face, "You said why did you suddenly want to charge me for food? And you want to drive me to carry sandbags, taking a detour?"

"Anyway, you have nothing to do."

"Fine, but can you let me see their military uniforms? It feels cool!"

Ye Yaodong looked at him indescribably. If he had known, he would have asked him directly if he wanted to be a soldier. If he wanted to be a soldier, he would have to mix a junior high school education first.

"Ask them at the old house yourself. It seems that the seabed salvage is almost done. They will leave in these two days, and they should not have brought military..."

Before he finished speaking, Lin Guangyuan ran out like a gust of wind. He was tired for a day, and he could still run so fast. His body was quite strong!

"It's almost mealtime, come back early."

Ye Yaodong twisted his neck, took the cattail fan on the stool beside him to fan the wind. It was hot as hell. Why didn't the wind and rain come to cool down? It was so stuffy. The sun had set, and there was no wind at all.

If it really doesn't work, a typhoon will do, and it can cool down for a few days.

He tilted his head, looking at the sky, thinking this in his heart, and his mouth was also nagging there.

Lin Xiuqing came out to collect clothes and heard it, and scolded him twice, "Crow's mouth, isn't it good that there is no typhoon."

"I'm afraid it's holding back evil. It doesn't sing, but it's amazing. There hasn't been a typhoon this year. Suddenly, if a big one comes directly..."

"Pfft pfft pfft, crow's mouth..."

"What's wrong with this? Which year didn't we have a typhoon here? Which year didn't have a few typhoons passing by? Anyway, it will be scraped sooner or later. It's so hot these two days, it's just right to scrape one to cool down. My daughter has heat rash from the heat, and she can't sleep well at night."

"Just wipe it with sweet potato powder, go call the children to eat."

"Good!"

The weather is hot, and porridge is easy to swallow. They eat porridge during the day, and because Ye Yaodong eats dry rice when he comes back from work at night.

There was still a small bowl of porridge left at noon, and she specially put it on the stove to warm it up, intending to feed Ye Xiaoxi. She was already more than four months old and could slowly eat a little rice soup.

Just when Ye Yaodong was holding the child and letting Lin Xiuqing feed, Lin Guangyuan ran back excitedly like a gust of wind again.

"So happy? Did you really see it?"

"See what?" Lin Xiuqing asked suspiciously.

"Didn't see it, but Captain Chen said that after he goes back tomorrow, he will mail me a set of his old military uniforms and said he would give it to me." Lin Guangyuan's eyes were shining with excitement, and his cheeks were flushed.

Ye Yaodong raised his eyebrows, "That's okay, then you continue to study on September 1st."

"Good."

Lin Xiuqing didn't expect that carrying goods at the pier didn't persuade him to go back to school, but a set of military uniforms made him willing to go back and continue his studies.

After dinner, Ye Yaodong returned the 5 yuan he earned from carrying sandbags these days to him, and even posted two cents.

Lin Guangyuan took it happily, "I knew you definitely wouldn't charge me for food, just talking about it."

"I even posted two cents for you, to make it a whole number."

"Don't think that because you posted two cents for me, I have to leave tomorrow. I have to play for a few more days. I was really exhausted these past few days!"

"Whatever, just help your little aunt burn the fire and chop wood at home. Oh, right, it's really almost out of firewood. Remember to go to the mountain to pick up firewood tomorrow."

"2 cents really didn't take it in vain."

Ye Yaodong sat on the recliner to cool off, and by the way, took the cattail fan to drive away mosquitoes and fan the wind. In his ears, he listened to the old lady's radio playing storytelling there. Recently, he has been listening to the Yang Family Generals.

A group of children were also playing in his courtyard, listening to storytelling while playing, girls kicking shuttlecocks, boys playing marbles.

Recently, there seems to be a new trick, I don't know where the little human heads came from, and they started to popularize hitting little people.

At night, Ye Yaodong went out to sea as usual. The abalone under the reef at the bottom of the sea had been pried by them almost.

Except for some that were in the crevices of the reef and were not easy to dig, the surface had been almost buckled, and even some sea snails attached to the stones had been picked up by them.

Now the quantity they can harvest when they go down to the water is getting less and less. He plans to finish it today and stop working. Tomorrow, he will not go down to the water to dig abalone anymore. There are a few scattered remnants at the bottom, so let them stay to multiply.

It's just that he always feels that the sea is surging with undercurrents today, a bit like the tranquility before the storm, although the sky is cloudless today, the blue sky is extremely clear, and the waves don't look big on the surface. As for the wind, it is only stronger when the boat is sailing.

But he always feels that the resistance of the fishing net when dragging at the bottom is significantly increased. Obviously, the speed of the boat is as big as usual, but he always feels that today is a bit different.

Could it be the signal revealed in the air?

He couldn't figure it out, and he didn't go to think about it, just cheered up and carefully paid attention to the surrounding sea area.

When the sky was bright and the sun was high in the sky, they felt that the time was almost up and they could pull up the first net, but they found that the net hauler made a creaking heavy sound when it was operating.

Ye Yaodong and Ye's father were both shocked, and both exclaimed in unison, "What's going on?"

This is clearly the net hauler being extremely overloaded, making a very strenuous sound, and the speed of the net hauling is significantly slower than usual, which can be said to be extremely slow.

You know, although his net hauler is small, the weight the machine can bear is only one ton, but it is enough for ordinary trawling.

Usually, if it's a net, luck is bad, only twenty or thirty catties, and if there are many, one hundred catties. It's not too simple to pull up the net hauler, and it doesn't take any effort at all.

This time it was so abnormal, suddenly so heavy, the father and son had no joy, and it was almost overloaded. I don't know what was in the net at the bottom?

"It looks like it's almost overweight? Did you catch any strange things again? It's only been a few days since normal salvage."

Ye Yaodong was also depressed in his heart. He just salvaged a large tripod a while ago, and now what did he salvage?

Why did he salvage some unreliable things again? He just wanted to make money and get rich.

Ye's father also frowned, "It looks like it can still bear it, let's drag it up slowly and see what it is first."

But suddenly the speed of the net hauler increased, and there was no feeling of overloading just now, as if it had thrown off a burden, and it became extremely relaxed again, which was no different from when it was hauled in the past.

The father and son looked at each other, not understanding what happened. If they hadn't seen it at the same time, they would have thought they had hallucinations.

"Is this normal again?"

"Seems like it?"

"What's the situation?"

Just when the two of them relaxed, the fishing net started to make a rattling sound again. This sound was more serious than just now. This is just ringing and not moving.

"Holy crap? What's the situation? Don't break my net hauler? ===== CHAPTER 420 =====
