Chapter 792

Ye Yaopeng listened to them talk for a while, remained silent there for a long time, and didn't make a sound.

It wasn't until they finished talking and all looked at him, waiting for him to take out the list, that he reacted.

"Oh, the list is with me."

"What are you thinking about? Older brother." Ye Yaohua saw him silent and looking thoughtful, and asked curiously.

Ye Yaopeng said hesitatingly: "Has the matter of you buying that boat been decided? Is everything confirmed?"

"It's decided. We paid the deposit the next day, and the delivery date has also been set. There's no accident; we can drive the boat back to the pier in more than a month."

Ye Yaohua rubbed his hands excitedly. Although he only owned one share, saying that he also had a share in the big boat made him feel very proud. Thinking about it, he was also incredibly happy inside, having long since lost the hesitation and anxiety of the previous few days.

"Do you really feel it's stable?"

"Yes, look at how good Dongzi's luck is? This boat after another, even that big boat he has a share in. I feel it's definitely stable and will definitely make money."

Ye Yaodong saw his older brother's hesitant appearance; could it be that he regretted it?

The fact was, Ye Yaopeng was indeed having trouble making up his mind again. Seeing what Ye Yaohua said, he also felt in his heart that Dongzi's sea luck was indeed especially good, and he was moved again.

They didn't believe in that evil one by one and all felt they could buy it. Even his father didn't oppose it later, and the old lady had even gone to worship Goddess Mazu. He was moved again in his heart, feeling that he seemed to have refused too decisively at the time.

During this period of the squid fishing season, he had also earned quite a bit, and he felt that his hands were looser. Investing one share... it didn't seem like a big problem?

And his father's boat was indeed too old and worn out; he didn't know how much longer it could last. If he could invest one share and put it there, he could also occupy a share?

"Then now, if I want to join, can I still join?"

"Ah?" After Ye Yaohua was surprised, he looked at Ye Yaodong.

It flashed through Ye Yaodong's mind: sure enough.

He frowned and felt embarrassed. Everything had already been decided. Although they only had a verbal agreement and no written form, it was decided once it was decided. How could they change it back and forth like this? It wasn't like they hadn't asked him at the time.

He wasn't willing when asked, and now he regretted it.

If he let him join and he regretted it later, what then? What if it didn't make money? When the time came, he would have to listen to his sister-in-law talking about this and that, saying things like "if I had known, I wouldn't have invested," and so on. Then he would have to curse.

Better forget it; missing it is missing it.

Ye Yaodong shrugged and spread his hands, "We've all decided, and we've all discussed how to distribute it. If the deposit hadn't been paid, we could still discuss it, but the money has been paid, so it's not easy to change."

"Older brother, why don't you save up more money? If you add a few hundred more, you can buy one yourself. Something that belongs to you alone is definitely better than joining with others."

"Oh, can't add, can't add, then forget it. I was just asking." Ye Yaopeng frowned, looking even more conflicted?

Ye Yaodong felt awkward just looking at him. Forget it, his second brother was more reliable; he wasn't conflicted after it was decided and was happy.

He didn't bother with his older brother anymore, collected the list, and went into the house directly, letting Aqing find time to settle a sum for the two of them.

The peak season lasted for a week before it started to weaken. In these few days, Ye Yaodong could also catch about nine hundred to one thousand jin per boat. Although it couldn't compare to the time when he had the dolphins' assistance a few days ago, the harvest was still quite good, and the price of squids had also fallen to 0.22 yuan.

For the goods of the last few days, as soon as they were dried, Ye Yaodong entrusted Uncle Zhou and his brother-in-law to send them to Boss Zhou's warehouse in the city, and also kept a portion for the shop. After sending them, he would pull a cart of fish goods back to dry, and at the same time, bring the payment back.

It kept circulating, just enough to utilize all the space without any gaps. It was also because the weather had been good these few days without any rain, and it had always been sunny weather.

When everyone went out to sea, they would pass by that small workshop. Every time they looked, they didn't know whether they should be envious or jealous.

It was just that no one looked forward to rain anymore. Even the two boys at home were honest; after being beaten, they kept their tails between their legs for several days.

However, some people saw that the big Liberation truck hadn't come over for so long, and they were really unable to sit still.

Originally, they thought that being impatient wouldn't get them hot tofu, so they waited a few days to observe. As a result, they waited until the fishing season was nearing its end, and they still hadn't seen the big Liberation truck come over.

Clearly, Ye Yaodong still dried a lot of squids at his door and the small workshop. It was not at all like what some people said about being afraid of losing everything and not daring to dry them anymore.

But it had been so long, and the big Liberation truck hadn't come to collect the goods. It must not be coming to collect them, right? He didn't know what was going on.

There must be someone who wants them, right? Otherwise, Ye Yaodong wouldn't be so stupid as to keep drying them there, but why didn't the big Liberation truck come?

This made some families feel terrible. Although they didn't dry much, it was still worth several dozen yuan. Leaving it at home without selling it, he didn't know how terrible it must feel in their hearts.

Originally, they still held hope, drying a little to test the waters and see if the boss would collect them? If he did, maybe they could learn from Ye Yaodong and earn more money, buying one boat after another, without having to watch others get rich.

Now, their little thoughts were beaten to death with one stick. Now these people only thought about selling what they had on hand quickly to break even, and didn't dare to dream of getting rich anymore.

For things worth several dozen yuan, if they were asked to keep them to eat themselves, it would be more uncomfortable than killing them; how could they swallow them?

Ye Yaodong had just pushed a cart of goods to his door when he heard his mother shouting loudly there, "A few days ago, they were still making sarcastic remarks there, and today they actually have the nerve to come to our door and ask if we collect squid jerky. Collect their ghost!"

"If we collect them, what if the whole village follows suit and dries them together, and Acai has no goods to collect? When the time comes, they'll say we're immoral for intercepting them halfway. Isn't this harming us by offending people?"

"Secretly drying a pile there, who wouldn't know what they're thinking? Who do they think is a fool? This is clearly thinking of intercepting them halfway and selling the goods to the big Liberation truck, and it would be best to contact the boss and learn from us to dry fish jerky to get rich."

"Dreaming? This is wanting to rob us of our path to wealth. Since this road is blocked, they want to sell the goods to us to break even. Do they want to eat shit?"

"Their brains are quite good at thinking; everything is thought of so beautifully. Why don't they go back to sleep and find it in their dreams? Since they can't sell them and they're going to be smashed in their hands, they still want to find us to cover for them. Why don't they go to heaven?"

Ye Mu rambled on about whatever came to her mind.

It was also fortunate that only a few women from their family were gathered there, waiting to receive the goods and clean the fish, and there was no one else around. No outsider heard the complaints his mother made.

"Who came to ask if our family wants to collect squid jerky?"

Seeing him return, Ye Mu hurriedly stepped forward to help unload the goods, "Who else could it be? Just those few. They said their own family dried a dozen jin of squid jerky and originally thought of sending them to relatives, but who knew their relatives also had some... Bullshit, believe their ghost."

"Then what did you say?"

"What else could I say? I said you weren't home and we'd talk when you got back. I was just complaining and saying whatever. Could I really be stupid enough to scold them to their faces and expose their bottom line? You decide whether to collect them or not. As long as you can make money, it's fine. Anyway, the quantity isn't large. I was just talking nonsense just now."

Ye Mu said without raising her head. She also knew that these complaints of hers could only be heard by her own family.

"Whatever, it's just a few jin of goods. See if they come to the door again. If they come again and you feel annoyed, just collect them. If they don't come again, it doesn't matter."

"Then if they run over again, let Aqing press a cost price and take them. Whether they want to sell or not, it saves people from thinking we're deliberately trying to steal business."

"The quantity today is less than yesterday; it's estimated that it's nearing the end. For the next few days, let my father-in-law not send fish over first. Let's take advantage of the low price and dry more squid jerky."

"You decide. The price is lowest and the quantity is highest only at this time of the year. It's also good to hoard a little more and put it there."

Ye Yaodong nodded, intending to tell Acai later to sell all the goods he receives tomorrow to him at a cheaper price, which would save him from transporting them to the city and also save some travel expenses.

If it weren't for the fact that Acai didn't collect many fish goods and they were miscellaneous, he wouldn't have to ask his father-in-law to send fish over every three days. He would just ask him to buy them directly. After all, this was just a small pier, and there weren't many trawlers.

Acai knew that he wanted to collect in bulk when it was nearing the end and cheap, so he was very cooperative. He only needed to weigh them and act as a middleman to earn money. Why not do it?

And he also indicated that if Dongzi couldn't dry them, he could also help dry them and collect the dried ones for him.

Ye Yaodong pointed his index finger at him twice and said with a smile: "I didn't think about intercepting your business, but you thought about earning my money!"

"Who doesn't know that you're the big spender in our village now? And who said you didn't intercept mine? Those toadfish last year were all intercepted from me. Although they weren't worth much, they couldn't stand the large quantity, and they could also earn a little to make a living."

What could he say to this!

"Good, good, good. If you dry them and give them to me, I can also save some trouble."

"By the way, I heard you have no fish to dry now. These days, it's all your father-in-law arranging for them to be transported back from the city for you."

"Yes."

"How about this, let me do this job! Tell me the quantity you want one day in advance, and I'll arrange it for you. The market commission fee for both sides has increased the price. It's better to let me take the commission, and it can also save your father-in-law some trouble."

"How to calculate the price!"

"Just calculate it according to the price I collect them at, and then you calculate a 5-point commission for me. You don't need to pay for the travel expenses either."

This is also possible!

Although the commission in the market is a two-way 3-point commission, the market price will be higher than their purchase price. Calculating a 5-point commission is not a loss, and you don't need to pay for the car fare yourself.

Ye Yaodong's brain moved and he also knew that he must have gone to the town pier to collect them. At the big town pier, many boats dock every day. He has people he knows, and collecting goods must be convenient.

Transporting them over is also close; just pushing a cart is fine. It really doesn't cost much for transport.

Letting him arrange the fish goods is really a win-win!
