Back To the Small Fishing Village In 1982 Chapter 329

  Chapter 329 Machine Exchange for Money

  He became energetic in an instant, and greeted Lin's father and mother happily, "Grandpa and grandma, little uncle said to take us out to sea to catch squid at night, and asked you to stay for a few more days."

"Why are you going to sea, don't mess around, don't cause trouble for your little uncle, he is tired enough to go to sea every day, don't meddle in it..." Mother Lin frowned when she heard that, for fear that her child would be too noisy, To add chaos to other people's homes.

  Father Lin also glared, "How did I tell you before I left? Tell you to be good and obedient..."

   "Hey... It's none of A Yuan's business, I suggested it."

  Ye Yaodong saw that Lin Guangyuan was being scolded as soon as he ran over, so he hurriedly stepped forward to explain that it's fine to tease him every day, and he can't really make him go back and get beaten for no reason.

"It's the squid season recently, we can't catch them every day, and a lot of them are stranded on the beach, which is cheaper than the seabirds. I thought you happened to come here, and I just happened to take you out to the sea, pick up some squids and bring them back or It doesn't matter if you sell it for a little money, you can pick up a hundred catties."

  Lin's father and Lin's mother were surprised, "A hundred catties?"

   "Can you pick up a hundred catties? So many squids?"

   "It may be more than that. There are too many seabirds on the island, and most of them are eaten by them."

  Mother Lin was stunned, "My dear, you can pick up a hundred catties if you pick it up, so how much can you sell it for?"

   "A few days ago, it was more than thirty cents a catty, just in time for the flood season, so I asked Ayuan to ask you, if the quantity is too large, the price will drop again. The price is different every day, it depends on the situation!"

  With the adults of the Lin family following, they can rest assured that they can bring Lin Guangyuan with them.

  Seeing that he has been quite obedient recently, and he worked very hard some time ago, we might as well satisfy his little wish.

   "That's a lot, it's better if you go to the seaside!" Lin's mother looked at Lin's father with some excitement, "Should we stay for one night?"

  Father Lin was very moved when he heard it, "Will it be too troublesome? You should be very busy too, so it would be bad to make trouble for you. A Yuan's presence here these days is enough for you to be busy..."

   "How could it be? This kid is quite obedient. He also helped us dig sandworms and go up the mountain to chop firewood and bamboo shoots. He was very diligent and helped us a lot."

  Ye Yaodong praised a few words, Lin Guangyuan immediately smiled after the rain.

   It's better to be a little uncle, as soon as his grandpa and grandma heard him tell them to stay, they scolded them without asking, and they were so mad at him.

  Mother Ye also helped with a smile and said: "Ah Yuan is quite easy, he is very obedient, and he plays well with his brothers, so let him play here for a few more days."

   "If you are not afraid of hard work, you can also go out to sea with Dongzi at night, pick up some squid, and make some money."

  Father Lin said politely: "We are all used to work, how can we be afraid of hard work? We are afraid of causing trouble to you..."

   "Where's the trouble? Those squids were eaten by seabirds, and we were so distressed. We just picked up some more when they came." Father Ye also persuaded him to stay.

   "There are still vacant rooms in the old house. A few people are moving, and those who are getting married are getting married. Now there are more rooms, so you can stay for two days at ease."

   "Yes, yes, yes, I am not afraid of not being able to live, there are many houses..."

  Lin Guangyuan also nodded, looking expectantly at Lin's father and Lin's mother, "Yes, yes, let's go pick squids too, otherwise my uncle and the others won't have time to pick them up, it's a waste, let's pick up some more and go back or sell them for money."

  Lin's father and Lin's mother were also very moved. Seeing that Ye Yaodong's family invited them to stay with a smile, they followed suit.

  Lin Guangyuan was so happy that he almost jumped up.

  Ye Chenghai and the others couldn't help showing envious expressions, "That's great, you can go out to play, I haven't even been on a boat yet."

   "Hey, why don't you ask my little uncle?"

   "Don't think about it, my parents won't take me with me, and I'm still called third uncle, my legs will be discounted."

  Sister-in-law Ye also gave him a sideways glance, "It's good that you know, why don't you go to school? You've already eaten your lunch, so what are you doing at home?"

  Ye Chenghai pursed his lips, stared secretly at the back of his mother's head, and then waved to a group of brothers and sisters, "Let's go, there is no hope, go to school."

  After Lin's father and Lin's mother decided to stay, after watching Ah Qing and the children, they also asked them about the recent situation of the cargo at sea, and by the way, they also helped to tie firewood together.

  Ye Yaodong knew everything and talked freely, which made the two elders much more satisfied with their son-in-law.

  While they were chatting, the master who repaired the machine in the village came to the door.

  Ye Yaodong stood up and greeted him, "Is the machine repaired?"

  The master who repaired the machine smiled embarrassedly, "It's fixed. The repair shop is busy these days, so it's been delayed until now."

   "It's okay, as long as it can be repaired."

  At that time, the machine from the sea had just been pulled back, and it happened that someone had come to check it. Ah Qing was anxious, and immediately started it. No one in the family was free to take care of the machine.

   After waiting for a day or two, everything inside and out was sorted out, and when he was done with work, he had time to ask someone to come over to take a look. However, the tools were not complete and he couldn't repair it on the spot, so he had to carry it back to the master.

   I didn't expect it to be here now after being carried back. It took 20 days before it was repaired and sent here. Fortunately, he was not in a hurry.

   "Are you an extra machine? You didn't even rush me."

  Ye Yaodong said angrily: "Otherwise? If it weren't for the useless old machine, I could come to your door every day to urge you to death."

   "Huh...I think so."

   "How much is the repair cost? Can you see how much my machine is worth if I sell it?"

  There is already one on board, but this one is useless to him, it is useless, so it is better to sell it to save it from rusting.

"Take 10 yuan. It's not easy to repair. All the parts have to be disassembled and cleaned from the inside to the outside. After all, it has been soaked in sea water. After washing, the broken parts have to be removed. They were all replaced, and it took a lot of work, and it took me several days to finish it."

   "Then how much is this machine worth if you sell it?" Father Ye also asked with concern.

   "I want it for 200 yuan. After all, it has been repaired and it can still work."

   "Just 200?"

   "It's about the same, quite high."

   "Then sell it to you, do you want it?"

   "Huh?" The master stared, "You have no money to pay?"

  Ye Yaodong rolled his eyes, "It's only ten yuan, am I so poor? I just think it's useless to keep it at hand, or sell it, do you want it? If not, I'll ask someone else."

  Master hesitated for a while, thought for a while, and nodded, "It's fine, you can sell it at my place, it's your price..."

   "200, what you just said! Do you still want to go back on your word?"

   "No, what I said just now is worth the price. If you want to take it back to me, then it must not be at this price. I will definitely make money if I resell it. Otherwise, why would I take you over?"

   "Then how much do you say?"

   "160."

  Ye Yaodong stared.

  The master hurriedly added: "After deducting the repair fee of 160, don't you still give me ten yuan for the repair fee."

   "Then you are too cunning, right? You need to earn at least 30 yuan."

   "I have to take the risk, what if I can't sell it and smash it in my hands?"

   "How could it not be sold?"

   "How is it impossible? Not everyone can afford the machine, how can those small wooden boats be willing to buy and install it?"

   "180 deducts 10 yuan for the repair fee, you give me 170, otherwise I will sell it myself, let the wind go, someone will always come to buy it, it doesn't matter how long it takes."

"165, just 165, it's fine, it's okay," the master murmured reluctantly, "it's a lot of work to move around, just earn some hard money, you still need it." Counter-offer. I made you ten yuan, but in the end I paid so much..."

   "Oh, let's go to 165. Don't talk about it. If you sell it, you will make money. Hurry up and give me the money."

  Ye Yaodong didn't bother to talk anymore, he picked it up for nothing anyway, so it's fine if he can sell so much.

   Now it's the master's turn to say angrily, "Why are you so anxious, who has nothing to do with putting so much money in their pockets? I'll give it to you when I get back, and you also come with me, and help move it along the way."

"OK, no problem."

  Ye Yaodong ran after him again, and then came back with the money.

  Mother Ye said with satisfaction: "165 is not a lot, it's okay to sell this machine for nothing."

  Second Aunt Ye enviously said: "You can buy a random machine and sell it for one or two hundred. No wonder those people in Luzhou Island like big boats to bully small boats and move machines."

  "People are doing it, and the sky is watching. Those people will be unlucky sooner or later."

  Sister-in-law Ye smiled and said, "The machine that Dongzi picked up from the sea must be from the shipwreck on Luzhou Island not long ago, right?"

   Mrs. Ye is still smart and quick to respond, of course Ye Yaodong will not admit it.

  Father Ye also knew that he couldn't admit it, “Who said it belonged to them? There are a lot of accidents at sea, as long as it can be sold for money, it doesn't matter which ship it belongs to.”

   "Well, I'll take the money into the house first."

  Lin Xiuqing had heard the movement at the door a long time ago, but because she could only lie down and not go out.

  Seeing Ye Yaodong come in, she immediately asked: "What are you talking about one hundred and sixty-eight?"

   "The machine sold for 165. On the day of your production, we towed it back from the sea. It was sent for repair at that time, and it was repaired until now."

   "It's still worth repairing, and it's worth selling. At that time, I asked the junk collector, and said that it could only be sold for a few yuan, and a few handfuls of wool. It's okay, and it can be repaired."

   "It's so valuable?" Lin Xiuqing had long been used to him saying a few foul words from time to time, and said indifferently: "It's good, I made a lot of money again, let's put the money in the drawer first."

Ye Yaodong complied, and then sat down on the bedside to fawn on her and said to her: "This is money for nothing, why don't you use it to buy a theater box? Watches, sewing machines, bicycles, we have all of them, and it's almost a ring. Come just in time to listen to the radio drama for the old lady."

   "You are really filial."

   This is not a small sum, not a pair of dentures, a few clothes, or the money spent on food and drink. Lin Xiuqing is a little reluctant. She herself used to live frugally, so she is not willing.

"The old lady has been miserable for half her life, and she hasn't had a good life for a few days when she is old. It's just that she has changed her life in the past two years. Buy it, buy her one, so that she will not be bored, otherwise she will spend all day Sit by the door to bask in the sun, take a nap..."

  It made him look like he was waiting to die, and he felt a little uncomfortable.

  Buying a radio for her to listen to the radio can also entertain her, and maybe her mental outlook can be better.

  The spirit is better, and you can live longer.

   "Anyway, it's the money you picked up, so don't feel bad. It's only a hundred dollars to buy a cheap one, and there are still some leftovers."

   "As long as you are willing."

  Ye Yaodong smiled, and happily kissed her cheek, "Then it's settled!"

  She could only comfort herself by saying that it was money for nothing.

  Lin Xiuqing turned her head, "I haven't washed my face or brushed my teeth for more than 20 days, you can kiss me, is it disgusting?"

   "It's okay, isn't this to please you? How can I dislike it."

   "Go, go, go away."

   The second one may be two or three o'clock, or tomorrow morning, don't wait! Don't wait!
