Chapter 719: Dog nesting dolls

"Where is it spread so clearly? I asked. It just so happened that when I went, the people inside were discussing it. I handed them a few cigarettes, chatted with them for a while, and then they told me the general situation that day. There's more..."

"What else? What else? Why did they send a large squad to search Luzhoudao?" Lin Xiuqing's curiosity was also hooked, and she couldn't wait to ask.

Ye Yaodong saw that her appetite was whetted, and suddenly he wasn't in a hurry to share anymore. He sat on the chair, crossed his legs, and shook them a few times with a smile.

Lin Xiuqing had been looking at him with expectation, but now her expression immediately retracted, and she glared at him, slapping his leg hard twice.

"What are you shaking for? Hurry up and say it, don't keep me in suspense."

"Hehe~" Ye Yaodong patted his thigh, "Sit down and talk."

"Stop being improper, we're talking about serious business. Hurry up and say it. After listening to the story, I have to go cook. After eating, we have to go listen to the opera, and you have to go on patrol too. It's your turn this afternoon."

Seeing that she wasn't cooperating, Ye Yaodong didn't keep her in suspense anymore.

"There were only two people on the requisitioned fishing boat. The two scouts couldn't run in time and were surrounded. After using thermal weapons, they were still caught and beaten half to death before being thrown on the island. Also heard that the people from Luzhoudao who lost the boat recognized it as the one they stole, and directly took the boat they drove over as compensation, one for one."

"Isn't that for sure? Approaching that island at this time, they would definitely be mistaken for the boat thieves coming out to check the wind. People were caught, so the boat was definitely confiscated and offset. Who would be polite to you? Just happened to lose a boat, and could immediately make up for it with another." Lin Xiuqing interjected.

"That's how it is. The Luzhoudao people thought they were the boat thieves, and the scouts thought the smuggling den on the island was exposed, so the two didn't make a sound even after being beaten half to death, and were tied to the reef on the island."

"Those people are truly vicious. If the tide went out, it would be fine, but if the tide came in, the two would have to be hit by the waves for several hours. That wouldn't be comfortable."

"Then? Then? Were the two rescued later? They should have been rescued, right? If they weren't rescued, you wouldn't know such details, and they wouldn't be discussing it in the station." Lin Xiuqing asked impatiently.

"Don't interrupt!"

"Alright, alright, you tell..."

"The two scouts went out and didn't come back all afternoon. It was dark, and the Border Defense Station could roughly guess something had happened, so they sent out several boats to search at the same time and just happened to rescue the two..."

"Those people are too vicious, tying them to the reef and letting the waves hit them. They were deliberately trying to kill them. If they hadn't come out in time... looking... ah... you tell, you tell..."

Ye Yaodong glanced at her sideways, and she immediately shut up.

"When the Border Defense Station arrived at the island, they said there wasn't a single boat on the shore. Only the flashlight shone on two people tied to the reef. They said they were unconscious and didn't wake up until yesterday morning after being brought back."

"They took the opportunity to stroll around the island the night before yesterday, but found nothing. There was nothing on the island, so they went back confused, planning to wait for the two to wake up before asking."

"At that time, the Border Defense Station still thought there must be a problem with the island, otherwise, how could two people driving a fishing boat and disguised as normal fishermen be caught, beaten like this, and tied to the reef."

Lin Xiuqing nodded as she listened.

"Heard they woke up early yesterday morning, but didn't know much. After all, they were caught in one encounter and tied to the reef. Only knew that after the Luzhoudao people caught them, they seemed to relax, and then several boats stopped at the shore with only two people watching, while the others were active on the mountain. They didn't see them either."

"Until the sun went down and the tide came in, the Luzhoudao people left. Because of the distance and their backs turned, they didn't hear what they were saying or what they were doing on the mountain."

"So yesterday morning, the Border Defense Brigade went out for another trip. Don't know if it was because they caught the boat thieves, but the Luzhoudao people relaxed. They still only left two people to watch the boat, and those two were still gambling on the boat."

"Until the Border Defense Brigade's boats got very close, they heard the noise and reacted, but it was too late. The two saw that there were people on several boats and were so scared they climbed off the boat and ran to the mountain. Then, after the Border Defense Brigade landed, they searched the mountain immediately and caught everyone on the mountain."

"Said they interrogated them all night yesterday. As for the interrogation results, no one said, only that they sent more people today to search those few villages on Luzhoudao."

"So what exactly is on the island?"

After hearing the development of the event, she still hadn't heard the key point she wanted to know most.

Ye Yaodong shrugged, "I don't know either. Guess they must have interrogated it out, but they can't reveal it before finding it."

"You're just bullshitting me, said so much, and the most critical part wasn't said."

"Although I feel my affinity is quite strong, people won't talk about important things everywhere. It's worth those people delaying making money to keep looking on the island; there must be good things, right? If the official side hasn't found it, they definitely won't announce it."

"Forget it, a large squad was sent to catch people and search today, so those people are definitely going to be in big trouble. Now we can rest easy. As for what's on the island, guess when the Border Defense Station finds it, there should be some news."

"That's what I think too."

"Alright, I'm going to cook, cook early and eat early."

Lin Xiuqing said as she walked out.

Ye Yaodong was still sitting there supporting his chin. Hearing that more than a dozen people had been caught this morning and a large squad was sent out to catch people and search, he was quite happy. Now, the people on Luzhoudao would be stripped of a layer of skin even if they didn't die.

In the past, if there were any disputes, there was no evidence at sea. If someone really didn't mind the trouble and reported it to the Border Defense Station, the people there might even find you troublesome.

This smuggling den, they wouldn't ignore it.

He didn't believe the people on Luzhoudao weren't involved in this. After all, smuggling made money fast. They were used to taking risks, so they definitely hadn't done it little. It was definitely a sure catch. He had also pondered the report before using this as a reason.

Just what is on the island?

The two dog-head gold nuggets in his hand were also picked up on the island. It shouldn't really be a gold mine, right? But if it were a gold mine, they would definitely have surrounded the island that day and wouldn't have time to deal with those clowns, right?

Headache!

Forget it, anyway, I'll know in a while.

Ye Yaodong shook his head and stopped pondering. Anyway, it was useless for him to guess blindly.

He put on his slippers, kicked and stepped, and sat at the door to blow the wind, waiting to eat.

At this time, Ye Chengyang ran over holding a basin with a turtle.

"Dad, Great-Grandma said I've grown taller, why hasn't Xiao Ba grown at all?"

Ye Yaodong stuck his head out and took a look, "Oh, 'a thousand-year turtle, ten-thousand-year tortoise,' have you heard of it? This turtle can live for a thousand years. You grow for ten years, it might be equivalent to it growing for one year. Understand?"

Ye Chengyang squatted there, eyes wide, asking curiously: "How old is a thousand years?"

"Huh?"

How to explain this?

"Maybe equivalent to ten of your Great-Grandmas!"

"Ah! Xiao Ba equals ten Great-Grandmas!"

Ye Yaodong thought about it, saying it like that didn't seem wrong.

"About that!"

"Then it's so old, it must be very powerful, can it bless us?"

"Huh?"

"Then should we worship it?"

"Huh?"

Ye Yaodong was stunned by his question?

What kind of brain circuit is this?

"Why worship it?"

"Let it bless us?"

Ye Yaodong was covered in black lines by his nonsensical words, but looking at his innocent expression, he felt he had to explain, lest he really worship it.

He thought for a while and said: "No need to worship, it's still young and can't bless us yet. When it really lives to the age of ten of your Great-Grandmas, it can bless you."

"Then is that going to be a long time?"

"Mm, a long time. When it can bless you, I'll tell you again."

"Oh..."

Lin Xiuqing was coming out to pull an onion and heard the conversation between father and son, unable to help but twitch the corner of her mouth. Adong actually answered such questions seriously!

If it were her, she wouldn't have paid any attention and would only tell him not to be silly.

"If you're free, just feed Xiao Jiu first, to save feeding for half a day later, Yangyang will be anxious again."

"Alright."

Ye Yaodong couldn't ask for more.

Afraid that if he stayed there, his son would ask some more bizarre questions.

Feeding the child, he was already very skilled. It wasn't the first time he had done this work; his dad skills were almost maxed out.

Lin Xiuqing looked at him feeding patiently, also full of smiles, "When you patrol this afternoon, remember to walk around our house more... forget it, maybe I won't go this afternoon, let Sister-in-law and Second Sister-in-law take the old lady and Yangyang."

Adong had been watching at home for the past few days, but no one was watching this afternoon, how could she be reassured?

"You're not going to watch? It'll be gone tomorrow. It's just the last two days. Once the opera troupe finishes, they'll leave, and don't know if they'll have it next year. There are so many dogs at home, Big Brother and Second Brother should also leave one at home, sitting at the door to watch, and have him watch our house too."

"Will it be safe?"

"Have him sit at the door, that way they can watch together. If our dogs have any abnormalities, he can know immediately."

Lin Xiuqing hesitated. Although she really wanted to watch the opera, there was no one at home, which was always not reassuring.

"Otherwise, I'll tie a dog outside the courtyard, a dog inside the courtyard, and another at the back door. That way, as long as any stranger approaches from any direction, the dog will bark, and Big Brother and Second Brother will be alert. That way, no need to worry."

"That works too."

Ye Chenghu came back from school with his schoolbag and heard it at the door, quickly saying: "Dad, we can tie another dog at home, another one in the room. If a thief really comes, opening the door will scare them to death, one after another!"

Lin Xiuqing laughed, "What kind of idea is this?"

"It's right! The thief definitely won't expect us to have dogs at the front door, dogs at the back door, dogs in the courtyard, dogs in the house, and dogs in the room!" Ye Chenghu thought about it and became happy himself, laughing out loud.

"Hahahaha~ I'm so smart~"

Ye Yaodong smiled and thought about it, feeling it was feasible, several layers of insurance.

"Can, your idea is not bad. I can also take the extra two dogs out to patrol together. If there are strangers, I can discover them early."

"Right, right, our family's little dogs are very powerful."

Lin Xiuqing smiled: "Can, sounds very safe. These dogs weren't raised for nothing."

"Mom, when shall we raise a few more big geese?"

"Big geese will attack people."

"But they are so big and majestic. We were chased by a big goose for a whole way just now when we came back, almost got pecked."

"That's fine too. Big geese can watch the house and protect the courtyard. Raise them." Ye Yaodong agreed very much. The key was that they were big enough. Once raised, they could be stewed in an iron pot, which must be very satisfying to eat!

"But the aggressiveness of geese is too strong, they will attack chickens and ducks. What to do if they bite the chickens and ducks to death?"

Geese are naturally combative, have strong territoriality, and have strong attack power. In the countryside, they are the overlords of poultry, the kings of domestic animals, chasing chickens and ducks is nothing. Even wild dogs have to give them three points.

In the countryside, if you encounter a vicious dog blocking the road, a brave person picking up a stick will scare it away eight times out of ten, but if you encounter a blocking goose, it can follow you for several miles.

"It's okay, raise them at the back door. That way, there will be someone watching the house at the back door too. A group of dogs at the front, a group of geese at the back, the safety factor is explosive!"

Lin Xiuqing thought about it and felt that raising them separately was feasible.

They lived by the beach, raising a few geese wasn't hard. Anyway, like ducks, they would go to the beach to find fish and shrimp themselves.

And geese can indeed be raised very big, have more meat than chickens and ducks, and lay big goose eggs.

Their family didn't raise pigs, so they could raise a few more geese, and it wouldn't be tiring.

"Fine, go to the market in a few days to see if there are any little geese for sale? Catch a few and raise them together."

"When will our family's little chickens and ducks hatch? I saw someone selling green little chickens at the school gate today..."

"Soon, I'll light a candle tonight to shine on the eggs and see."

At this time, Ye Chenghu dug into his canvas bag and suddenly grabbed a green little chicken from inside. Ye Chengyang was instantly pleasantly surprised.

"Ah! There are green little chickens, Brother, where did you get them?"

"Bought them!" Ye Chenghu said triumphantly, "I went to the Mazu Temple early in the morning and found several coins, a dime and two cents."

His pocket money for the past few days depended on his efforts every morning and evening.

Ye Chengyang was instantly frustrated, "I got up late!"

"Good boy, you found quite a lot."

Ye Chenghu raised his head proudly, triumphantly, "I can find money every morning and after school at the Mazu Temple. If only there were operas every day."

Lin Xiuqing smiled and grabbed the green chicken in her hand, looking at it again and again, "Is this painted green? Can it be done like this?"

"Only then can it attract children."

"Don't know what the difference is from our own chickens hatching? Raise it first and see if it can be raised big. It just so happens that our family's chickens are about to hatch, can raise them together."

Ye Chenghu grinned, "Hehe, this is what I bought."

"Fine, when it's raised big, I'll stew it for you to eat."

"Brother, can you help me buy one too?"

"Can, give money!"

Ye Chengyang ran back to the room to get it. Recently, the children all had quite loose pocket money, and each of them had hidden some private money.

Lin Xiuqing had loose hands, holding a large amount of money, and really didn't take the few cents or dimes saved by the children to heart. She basically didn't interfere with the children's private money now.

It was already a bit different from other mothers in this era.

Ye Chenghai and the others were still racking their brains to hide their private money everywhere, while the two brothers at home could openly discuss how much they had saved.

"Don't keep playing with it in your hands, it'll get dirty."

"Just play for a while."

"Eating soon, go wash your hands first."

In the afternoon, it was Ye Yaodong's turn to patrol. After finishing his meal, he gave some instructions to his eldest brother to look after the house, then arranged for each of the dogs at home to be in their proper places before heading toward the Village Committee with Da Heizi.

As agreed, front door, back door, courtyard, house, room, not one could be missing. If there was an accident, it could also give people a surprise!

The militia at the village committee saw him coming with a big dog and were also pleasantly surprised.

"Right, your family raises many dogs. If we had known earlier, we should have borrowed one from you. That way, maybe no one would have been stolen from in the village. This dog's nose is very sensitive."

"Why don't you go home and lead a few more out?"

"Right, right, each of our squads takes a dog, guaranteed to be discovered from far away."

"Right, right, dog noses are very useful."

"Woof woof woof~"

"Yo yo yo~ quite fierce, it's a good dog!"

Fatty also said: "If I had known, I would have led my dog out."

It was so lively in the village these few days, he also specially asked for leave. Once he said it was Mazu's birthday, the leave was especially easy to ask for.

Ye Yaodong smiled and said, "I'm out on patrol, and there's no one at home. The few dogs can only be left at home to watch the house; they can't be brought out. At most, I can only bring one. As for the evening, I could actually lend five to the militia team to use."

"Can, can, with a dog following, it's easier to find little thieves."

"Your dog, the hair is oily and shiny, raised quite well."

"It's okay, anyway, feed it fish and shrimp, it grows like this by itself."

"When it has puppies, catch one for me."

"Catch one for me too..."

Ye Yaodong agreed to it all.

When it has puppies, nest after nest, definitely have to send them out, otherwise the house would really become a dog kennel. Originally, he had raised enough.

Today is the last day, tomorrow is the last day, the Mazu Temple is still a sea of people, compared to the previous few days, only more, not less. After all, there are also those who are not well-informed who just found out.

Knowing, where is there no rushing?

All afternoon, Ye Yaodong patrolled the whole way with Da Heizi. It kept charging ahead, barking immediately whenever it saw a stranger, then rushing up to them, scaring people into running away instantly.

These people following behind were useless, the people were scared away, which saved a lot of trouble. Friends all praised it repeatedly.

The one brought out was useful, and those at home were also useful at the same time, but they were used on their own people...

Ye Mother was originally worried about Dongzi patrolling, no one watching at home, not reassured, so she thought about coming over to take a look.

She had the keys to his house.

However, seeing the dog squatting at the courtyard gate, she was reassured, so she didn't go in, planning to walk around the house to take a look.

Who knew that when she turned to the back door, seeing a dog tied at the back door was fine, but there was a distorted dog head lying on the window inside. When she turned her head to look, she was almost scared to death.

But this dog might be somewhat familiar with her, didn't make a sound, just stared at her with wide dog eyes.

"Oh my, my god, why is there another one in this room?"

Ye Mother was scared, took a step back, and slapped her chest hard.

Ye Yaodong's back door did not have a courtyard wall around it, and the window of his own room was right next to the back door.
