Chapter 500: Preparing to Retreat

It was just unexpected that before he could take the initiative to say anything, she didn't come to deliver vegetables anymore. He didn't know if she had been stopped by her family.

He simply threw it to the back of his mind and didn't take it to heart. It was best if she didn't come. If there were no vegetables, he could exchange fish and shrimp with the villagers. What a simple matter.

The two villages fought for three or four days in a row. Later, it ended with two people dead on each side. Then there was a few days of turmoil, and later it all calmed down.

After it calmed down, the villagers' eyes began to focus on their group of outsiders.

Especially since the villagers watched them harvest jellyfish in large batches every day.

Even though they were afraid of making people jealous and tried their best to process them on the boat or on the beach, and let the tractor come to transport them directly, they didn't dare to carry them into the village in a flashy way.

However, there were still boats docked nearby that saw the goods on their boats, and also saw them processing and selling goods on the beach with their own eyes.

And it wasn't just one boat that had a big harvest, but all three boats had so much every day. This shocked the villagers.

Their three boats now made two trips a day, and each boat could harvest more than 10,000 jin. After processing and shrinking, there were still 7,000 or 8,000 jin. Any one of their boats caught more than their two large boats.

At first, no one noticed, but after the fight, many people paid attention to them. In the last few days, when they were collecting goods on the beach, many villagers came to watch and then whispered.

It was the same today.

Just as their boats were about to dock, many large and small boats nearby deliberately sailed to their side and crowded over to dock next to them.

"Wow, another boat full of jellyfish. Where did you catch them? Why so many?"

"Yeah, which direction did you catch them in? Why are there so many goods every day? And all three boats have the same amount."

"It doesn't look like you encountered a jellyfish swarm. Where could you be so lucky to encounter them every day? Where exactly did you catch them? Why didn't we encounter so many?"

"What they catch in one day is several times ours. Although we have few large boats, we have about 60 small boats. What they catch in one day accounts for nearly half of the entire village..."

"Exactly, where did you catch them..."

The people on Ye Yaodong's three boats just smiled and said they were lucky, and then turned to busy themselves untangling the nets and dragging the jellyfish one by one. They didn't say anything more. Too many people had asked in the last two days.

Was the trench something that could be talked about? They still had a lot of work to do and had no time to chat with people.

Although the villagers were somewhat unwilling to not understand where they went to catch them, those with large boats had made up their minds to follow behind them at night to see.

Once or twice is luck, but every day is so much; everyone knows there must be something wrong somewhere.

By the time they dragged the jellyfish onto the shore one by one, more people crowded over, surrounding them one after another, watching them drag, watching them process, and whispering.

Ye Yaodong looked at the people around him and knew that they probably couldn't stay long. In about these two days, they would have to pack up and change to another village and another point to stay.

Sigh, if only they didn't have to move, how good that would be. Making money is not easy.

Ye Fu and the others basically had an idea in their hearts. It was almost time to move. They had to find a new place to stay, otherwise, they might have the life to earn money but not the life to take it home.

They busied themselves with their own work. Anyway, they weren't familiar with the villagers, so they didn't pay attention to their whispering.

By the time the day's goods were sold, they returned directly to the educated youth spot.

As soon as Ye Yaodong entered the room, he said, "Dad, we probably have to leave in these two days. We can't stay any longer. If we stay any longer, something will happen."

Ye Fu also nodded, "I think so too. In the last two days, the village has been discussing that we catch too many goods. Other large boats only catch 6,000 or 7,000 jin in two trips a day, but we can catch 10,000 jin, which is twice as much as others."

Pei Fu also frowned, "We have to leave. Otherwise, earning too much on someone else's turf, it won't be easy to leave when the time comes. After all, we are outsiders."

Ye Yaopeng was a little nervous, "We won't be kept by their village, right? Why don't we leave tonight? Anyway, there are so many surrounding villages, we can just go to any village and stay for a few more days?"

"If we move again, we can't be in the nearby villages. It's too close. Who knows if they have heard of us when the villages communicate with each other?"

"Then we have to leave. Otherwise, we earn too much. What if they are jealous? They just had a fight with the neighboring village and two people died. What if they vent their anger on us..."

Originally, everyone didn't think much when they came back. After hearing what Ye Yaodong said, they discussed it one word after another. Everyone's heart was instantly lifted, and they all felt a sense of urgency.

Ye Yaodong interrupted his older brother's worried words, "Leaving is definitely a must. Let's discuss when to leave. If you are afraid of long nights and many dreams, and plan to leave tonight, then pack up your things in advance in a while, take advantage of the night to move things to the boat, and make do on the boat at night."

"Otherwise, we will leave after dark tomorrow. Find a village to stay in during the day tomorrow, and move after dark."

Ye Yaohua hurriedly echoed, "I think it's more appropriate to find a place to stay in advance before moving. Otherwise, we can't sleep on the boat for a night. It's originally physical labor. We won't have the energy to catch fish during the day tomorrow. We shouldn't be short of this day, right?"

Ye Yaodong looked at the others, "What do you say? Is there any problem, Brother Nian?"

Chen Jianian hurriedly said, "It has no effect on me. You can move to any village. I will directly call to contact the car to collect it when the time comes. It won't be affected."

Ye Fu also looked at Pei Fu, "What does the in-law think?"

They were all their own family here, so it was easy to talk. Of course, they had to respect the in-law.

Pei Fu pondered for a moment and said, "I'm fine with anything. Why don't we stay one more night? Find a place to stay first, and move as soon as it gets dark tomorrow? Anyway, it should be in the area around the town. After moving, we can have a good rest. As for tonight, it is indeed a bit rushed."

Ye Fu nodded, "That's fine. Then we will look for a village to dock when we go out to sea to catch fish during the day tomorrow, confirm it, and move after dark tomorrow."

In the last two days, villagers had been asking them where they caught them from time to time. Everyone felt that they were not short of this day, so they nodded one after another and passed it unanimously.

With the big event in their hearts solved, everyone felt relaxed.

Ye Yaodong also said fortunately, "Fortunately, this village has been fighting with the neighboring village for the past few days and had no time to manage us. We also had a few more days to catch jellyfish. Otherwise, we probably would have had to run away a few days after moving in. Now at least we have lived for ten days, which is okay."

Ye Yaopeng couldn't help but say, "It's just that we rented it for a month here, but we only lived for ten days, which is a bit of a pity."

"What's a pity? You earned hundreds of yuan a day, and you still care about this bit of money? If you really lived for a full month, who knows where your mother would have run to burn paper for us next Qingming Festival." Ye Fu glared at Ye Yaopeng angrily.

Ye Yaopeng touched his nose and didn't speak.

Pei Fu changed the subject and said, "We can't stay in other villages for too many days in the future. We probably have to change places after staying for two or three days. Otherwise, it will be too eye-catching."

"Do we have to change so frequently?" Ye Yaohua was a little hesitant.

"It's dangerous to stay too long. Hundreds of yuan is enough to cost a life. It's just that this village happens to be in conflict with other villages and has no time to pay attention to us. Our attention is not on us. Otherwise, we should have left long ago."

Ye Fu also echoed, "The in-law is right. It's just that we get up early at night. Other large boats only go at three or four o'clock. We go before three o'clock, avoiding the large boats, and the small boats can't catch up with us. Today I saw that many people's eyes were wrong. I don't know if any boats will follow us closely at night."

"Shouldn't be, right?" Ye Yaopeng's heart, which had just been put down, was lifted again.

"Hard to say, I think it's very possible."

Ye Yaohua was also nervous, looking at his father, "Then shall we set off earlier tonight? Don't let them catch up?"

If that trench is exposed, it won't be easy to catch later.

At that time, it will be all people from their village. There are only a few of them from out of town. There are so many people. If they say they won't let them catch, they won't let them catch.

"Why don't we move to the boat tonight? I feel that long nights have many dreams..." Ye Yaopeng also looked at his father.

Ye Yaodong also had this concern, "Then why don't we leave overnight?"

"These days, when we dock, they surround us, but at night we go out to sea one step ahead of others. It's been so many days, and we're not short of this day. Since it's decided to find a place during the day tomorrow and move after dark, then it's decided. Let's rest early and get up early at night. Let's get up half an hour earlier than usual, two o'clock?"

Pei Fu also spoke to appease, "Don't think too much. We just go out to sea a little earlier than usual, don't be followed. If we are followed, we won't go in that direction, just catch scattered ones on the surrounding sea, and then find a village."

"That's fine, then rest early after eating in a while."

"Yeah."

After agreeing to move after dark tomorrow, they went to busy themselves, taking a bath, boiling jellyfish blood.

Ye Yaodong, Ye Fu, and Ye Yaopeng also returned to the room together.

Ye Yaodong looked at them and said, "Let's keep the money well and carry it with us. Tomorrow I plan to go to the town after confirming the place to stay, and deposit the money. The money is increasing day by day, and it is not safe to keep it by our side. It's just that we have been busy catching fish all day and night these days, and have no time to go out. Otherwise, we should have deposited the money long ago."

It has only been ten days since they caught it, and he already has more than 2,000 yuan by his side. This is because there are two days of money not taken, and because it rained intermittently during the period, it was delayed for three days. Otherwise, they could earn more.

The goods brought on the first day and the catch sold for more than 500, the second day sold for more than 200. After discovering the trench, although the price gradually dropped a little, what he sold every day could basically reach 500 yuan.

It's just a pity that they can't go out to sea every day.

It's just that the boat is his own, and no one shares the money with him, so he earns more. Unlike the families in the village, one boat is shared by several rooms in the family.

"Is it easy to withdraw from the post and telecommunications bureau?" Ye Fu also felt that there shouldn't be so much money by his side, but he was a little worried. The money of their rural people has always been hidden at home. Where have they ever deposited in a bank?

"It must be easy to withdraw. If it's not easy to withdraw, who would deposit?"

"Then you decide for yourself."

Ye Yaodong looked at his older brother again, "Does the older brother want to deposit it?"

Ye Yaopeng hesitated, "I don't know how to read, and I don't know how to deposit or withdraw. Otherwise, I will give the money directly to you, and you will deposit it into your account tomorrow, and then you will withdraw it and give it to me after returning home?"

"That's fine. We will go together when the time comes. I will open an account, and you can deposit it there."

"Then tell the in-law in a while. If you want to deposit, you will go together tomorrow to deposit it, so as not to have more and more money on hand, which is not safe."

"Good, then tell Uncle Pei in a while. If you want, go together tomorrow." ===== CHAPTER 501 =====
