Chapter 489: The Old Lady is Looking Forward
After sending the tractor away, Ye Yaodong happily clenched his right fist and gave himself an encouraging gesture excitedly.
Ye Yaosheng said enviously, "Dongzi, you made a fortune on this trip. You are bold, and you really earned big money."
The eldest cousin also said excitedly, "Yes, 520 yuan. I have to earn it for almost half a year, and you earned it in one trip. How did you think of collecting jellyfish and processing them?"
"Collected for one cent, it should only cost about 100 yuan, and you directly doubled it five times. It's so much," the second cousin also chimed in.
Ye Yaodong smiled and said, "I have seen people process it before, and I have also caught it. I processed it a few times when I was idle. I also heard people say that there is a fishing season here. I happened to encounter it two days ago, so I had a flash of inspiration. Fortunately, someone wanted it. I also bit the bullet, took the risk, and sent it over from thousands of miles away."
Ye Yaosheng agreed, "Indeed, ordinary people wouldn't think of taking risks, and they have to spend so much money to collect it. The key is that they have to send it over from a long distance themselves. Any one of these three can directly persuade people to retreat."
"He just loves to toss. Others can't hide in time. He still messes around with things that others don't want. Fortunately, he encountered it and sold it for a good price. If he sent it from a long distance and no one wanted it, see what he does."
Ye Fu said words of dislike, but the smile on his face was particularly bright, smiling even more happily than Ye Yaodong.
Dongzi's luck is really good. Just tossing this jellyfish casually, it actually sold for a high price.
"What else can I do? Cold mix! If no one really wants it, then come back as you came. I'm still afraid of being talked about? If it can't be sold, keep it for yourself to eat. Just jellyfish blood can make me eat to my heart's content."
"Yes, your mouth will be eaten crooked. Such expensive things, you dare to say keep it for yourself to eat. You want to eat everything all day long, and you never have enough to eat."
"Don't you want to taste it? Such expensive things, don't you regret not tasting it?"
"Not regret. Do you think I am you? Eating one bite is equal to digging my meat. My meat is not as valuable as this thing," Ye Fu said angrily, "Don't be poor, hurry up and collect these things, take them to the boat, and use them tomorrow. Don't sell these fish and shrimp, right?"
"There are not many, just keep them for yourself to eat. Floating on the sea for a day and a night, also hungry for a day, everyone didn't eat well and didn't sleep well."
Ye Yaodong looked at the sun that was about to fall below the mountain on the horizon, and said again, "It's already very late today. I'll go to the village to find the village committee and see where I can rent a house? Everyone is tired for a day. Let's exchange two fish for some vegetables with the villagers in a while, and let's have a good meal tonight and rest. We have to continue going out to sea tomorrow."
"The educated youth spot in the past should be idle. Go and see if you can rent it?"
"I know, you collect things first, and you can take the clothes to change first."
After Ye Yaodong finished speaking, he walked towards the village. Fortunately, there were still people in the village committee. They were not xenophobic. Knowing that he wanted to rent a house to live in, they directly rented the educated youth spot to him and gave him a lot of pots, pans, and bowls.
These were the things left after the educated youths left. They all collected them in the village committee (divided), and now they were just moved out for them to use.
Perfectly solving the problem of accommodation, Ye Yaodong called home again.
Lin Xiuqing waited anxiously for a whole day, couldn't do anything, didn't weave the net, and was too lazy to cook. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner were all dealt with casually.
The old lady also sat at the door all day, stretching her neck and looking at the courtyard gate, sighing twice from time to time, and muttering a few words.
"It's been a whole day, why didn't you make a phone call?"
"They should have arrived at noon, right? I don't know if it's convenient to eat, and where to sleep at night?"
"The sun has set, Dongzi and the others should have arrived long ago, right? Why don't you know how to make a phone call back to say something? What's wrong with the father and son?"
"Is there anyone watching in the village committee? Will there be no one, so the phone wasn't received?"
"Oh, if no one is watching there, wouldn't the phone be missed?"
The more the old lady thought about it, the more likely it was. She patted her thigh, "My ancestor, it must have been missed. Otherwise, it's so late, Dongzi couldn't have not called back? This won't work, I have to go and see."
After muttering, she hurriedly lifted her feet and walked towards the gate, "I have to go and see, the people in the village committee are too unreliable..."
Lin Xiuqing had just coaxed the child to sleep. As soon as she came out, she saw the old lady going to the gate and hurriedly stopped her, "It's time to eat, where are you going?"
"I'm going to the village committee to see if there is any phone call? It's impossible that there is no phone call all day. It was clearly agreed that they would call back to report safety. I don't know what those people do all day? The phone doesn't know how to answer, and they don't know how to call people."
After the old lady turned her head and responded, she walked out muttering.
"I'll go, your legs and feet are not good, just look after the house at home. I'll ask and come back to tell you, don't run around."
"That won't work, I have to go and see for myself. What if the phone calls back and I don't receive it? I don't know if he has food to eat today, and where he sleeps at night? Going out, eating badly and sleeping badly, I don't know if he can bear it..."
"Dongzi hasn't suffered much... This is his first time going far away... Alas... How good is home..."
The more the old lady thought about it, the more distressed she felt, and her steps became faster.
She only cared about being distressed, and the first thing she thought about was him, not whether the goods were wanted? Was it sold?
Lin Xiuqing hurriedly told the eldest son playing at the back door to look after the younger sister in the room, and then hurriedly chased after her.
She also wanted to go to the village committee to see if there was any phone call that hadn't been received. It had been a whole day, why was there no phone call? It made her feel weak in everything she did.
Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua also went out to sea to catch fish as usual at night, but their minds were not on fishing all day.
Especially Ye Yaohua, who kept losing his mind and wandering in the void. It was not easy to wait until the sun slanted to the west, and he hurriedly urged Ye Yaopeng to go back.
Ye Yaopeng couldn't help him, so he had to return early. Moreover, he also wanted to know, were his father and the others safe? Was the jellyfish easy to sell there? What was the price? Was there really a fishing season?
The two sold the goods. Just as they were about to reach the gate, they saw the old lady and Lin Xiuqing walking towards the village one after another, hurriedly calling them and running up.
"Where are you going? Did Dad and Dongzi call back?"
"No, I don't know what's going on. Let's go to the village committee to see if the phone was missed?"
"What? The sun has set, why haven't you called back? Shouldn't you have arrived at noon?" Ye Yaohua frowned.
Ye Yaopeng was also a bit worried, "It's so late, did something happen?"
"Bah, bah, bah, crow's mouth, what can happen? They must have seen jellyfish floating all over the sea as soon as they went over. The father and son only cared about fishing or selling goods, and couldn't spare their hands for a while. Or maybe the phone called back, and the people in the village committee were unreliable and missed it." The old lady retorted with a strong reaction and glared at the two brothers.
"I'm just saying... I didn't say anything bad happened. Maybe something was delayed, or maybe the boat was sailed for too long..."
"You'd better stop talking, it's annoying to hear you talk." The old lady said dissatisfiedly and walked forward on her own.
Lin Xiuqing also hurriedly followed.
Just at this moment, someone came running over and happened to meet them.
The person shouted, "Lin Xiuqing's phone, there is a phone for Lin Xiuqing."
The old lady was even more excited than Lin Xiuqing when she heard this, hurriedly grabbed the person's hand and asked, "Is it Dongzi's phone? Is it Dongzi who called?"
"Yes, yes, it's Ye Yaodong's phone."
After Lin Xiuqing heard the affirmative words, she ran away.
"Oh, finally called..." The old lady's expression relaxed, and she said happily and hurriedly walked towards the village committee.
Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua couldn't care about pushing the cart back, and directly accompanied the old lady to follow.
Lin Xiuqing ran with her cheeks flushed and sweat all over her face. As soon as she arrived at the village committee, she saw Ye Mu already answering the phone.
She was scolding: "It's okay if you are unreliable, your father is also unreliable. I don't know how to call back early. Everyone is worried to death..."
"Sailing such a long sea route, I'm afraid you will get lost and go the wrong way, and something will happen. It made me do nothing all day today, just worrying about you..."
"I've already asked someone to call your wife. What's wrong with talking to me a few more words? Where is your father? Why are you busy until now..."
Lin Xiuqing couldn't care about wiping sweat, and hurriedly ran in, "Mom."
Ye Mu looked at her and reluctantly gave her the phone: "You ask him, why did he call until now? Did something happen?"
"Okay, okay... Adong..." Lin Xiuqing picked up the phone, and only then had time to touch the sweat on her cheeks casually.
She listened to the phone sound on the other end, and the more she listened, the happier she became. Until she heard that the goods they sent over sold for 520, she widened her eyes and was stunned with happiness.
"520? So much?"
Ye Mu widened her eyes and asked eagerly, "What 520? Is it that the jellyfish sent over sold for 520? So much?"
After seeing Lin Xiuqing nod, she was about to be happy, "Doubled five times! Oh, so much, it's really not a wasted trip..."
The old lady, accompanied by Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua, walked later and arrived late. Hearing that it doubled five times, she also asked excitedly?
"What five times? Give me the phone, let me talk to Dongzi..."
"Dongzi, why did you call back? Did you call back long ago, and no one in the village received it? Is your journey smooth? Did you eat first after arriving? Did you eat at night?"
Ye Yaodong on the other end of the phone reported safety to the old lady again, appeased her, and then told her about the situation here.
"Where are my eldest brother and second brother? Did they go to drag the net at night? Are they back?"
"Yes, yes, they just came back and also came over, right beside me." ===== CHAPTER 490 =====
