Back To the Small Fishing Village In 1982 Chapter 631

  Father Lin and Mother Lin were also very happy. They had just arrived at the place and it was already half sold, and there were still people in the store looking around.

  The second elder also followed those people, saying in broken Mandarin, "It's delicious..."

   "It will be delicious..."

   "Will be fresh..."

   "Cheap...just forty-five cents..."

  Ye Yaodong held a stack of new banknotes in his hand, and returned to the shop happily. As soon as he entered, he heard them greet the customers in the shop with smiles on their faces, and he didn't feel uncomfortable watching them. It's just that the mandarin they spoke made people laugh and cry.

   He can only utter two or three words, and the tone of his speech is very inaccurate, but it is already very good to be able to speak, much better than most people, and he can barely understand anyway.

  Ye Yaodong also smiled and said to the people in the store: "Just now the boss weighed 500 catties and took it away, and everyone saw it. You can rest assured about the quality of the dried fish, it was dried years ago, and it won't go bad if left alone."

   "If it's windy and rainy and it's inconvenient to go out to buy vegetables, it's more convenient to steam a bowl of dried fish, or fry a bowl. You don't have to worry about running out of vegetables at home. It's also very suitable for drinking, and it's cheap."

   "Yes, yes, yes, it won't be bad...cheap..." Father Lin echoed.

   He can speak all kinds of Chinese, but he can't speak Mandarin, and he still needs to practice.

  Those pickers kept nodding their heads, and they all said that they should have a try first, and Lin's father and Lin's mother were busy again.

   This dried fish doesn't need to be packaged, just put a straw rope through a hole through the head of the fish, and tie a knot to carry it.

  Two old ones, one on a scale and one on a rope, Ye Yaodong took a moment to set it off at the door with a bunch of firecrackers.

  This new store opened on the first day, so it was necessary to set off firecrackers, to make a formality, to celebrate.

  Because of the sound of firecrackers, their store really attracted a lot of curious people to come and have a look.

   After a wave of busy work, Ye Yaodong put a sack of dried fish horizontally on the ground, and then put a pile of small change on the sack and counted it.

   "I have to buy a table and chairs later. There is no place to put things or sit."

"I don't think you need to buy it. If you go back today, it seems that you will have to bring another truckload of dried fish over tomorrow. There are quite a lot of customers, and the rest is only more than 300 catties. If you encounter them, you need to ask for the quantity." Too many are not enough to sell, when you transport another cart, you can bring a broken table and chairs from home, or buy one from the carpenter in the village, it will definitely be cheaper than buying them in the city.”

   "Yes."

   Just go to the village committee to move a set. Those years were too sensitive. The dilapidated primary school in the village had no teachers, and it was closed later. And now there are no teachers willing to come, and all the children go to school in the next village.

  He can tell his mother to move a set of tables and chairs. Anyway, there are so many, and they will be placed in the village committee.

  After Ye Yaodong counted the money, he lifted up his clothes and put it in the cloth bag he was carrying next to his body. By the way, he also put the new wad of money in it evenly.

   The brand new banknotes were recovered first, and of course they were reluctant to fold them. It was only during the Chinese New Year that it was possible to receive this new banknote that had just been circulated from the bank.

  If you have time when you go back, you can go to the bank to exchange a set of new banknotes of various denominations at this time, save them, and watch them one version at a time, which is also a memory.

Throughout the morning, Ye Yaodong has been busy arranging the board and lodging of Lin's father and Lin's mother. Intermittently, guests will come to the door from time to time, and there is a lot of traffic. Fortunately, Mother Lin is here, so she can help out.

  If it weren't for the tractor driver's urging at the door, Ye Yaodong would probably still be reluctant to leave. The new store has just opened, and it is quite attractive to people who come in and out of the market.

  The two entrances next to it are less crowded. After all, this is the main entrance, and the two next to it are side entrances. It's not easy to rent the shop for a while.

   After returning home, it was already dusk. Not only Lin Xiuqing, but also his parents were very concerned about the situation when the door opened on the first day.

  Ye Yaodong didn't say much, he took off his clothes, took out the cloth bag inside, unbuttoned it, and poured banknotes all over the table, looking at the two boys with starry eyes.

   "Ah! New bills!"

   "There is new money money!"

  The children pressed one of them with quick eyesight and quick hands, and then slid to themselves.

   "It's new, Daddy, it's new money."

   "I like the new money..."

  Ye Yaodong patted the heads of the two children, "Kids, don't move around, this big union costs ten yuan a piece."

   "We are curious about the new money, so we just play around and return it to you later."

  Children just look at everything and find it fresh. They have never seen such brand new money, and they can brag when they talk about it.

  The adults have seen more money than this a few times, so they are not so excited, but they are still very happy.

Father Ye said with a smile on his face: "There are so many, is this sold today? It's quite a lot, two or three hundred yuan, right? It's been a long time on the road since this morning, so it shouldn't be sold for long. Bar?"

  After doing the calculations in her mind, Lin Xiuqing was pleasantly surprised, "It sold for hundreds of catties all at once?"

   "It's so easy to sell. It sold for hundreds of dollars just in the morning?" Mother Ye was also surprised, "Isn't this much better than setting up a stall?"

  Ye Yaodong took two cents from the table and gave them two cents, "One cent each, go out and play, don't get in the way here, don't go out and talk nonsense."

   "Yes, Dad."

  Ye Chenghu took the money and climbed off the stool excitedly, he likes his father the most!

   "Brother wait for me..."

  After the two children went out, Ye Yaodong told about what happened this morning, and the whole family was happy.

  Even Mother Ye said a good word, "I didn't expect you to make a lot of money by messing around with dried fish like this. It's not uncommon here, and it's so popular in the city."

   "People in the city outside have no fields and no land, so they have to spend money to buy everything. This dried fish can be stored, and only we seaside people can dry it, and it is cheap." Father Ye is a little complacent.

   "You know so well, why didn't you get rich early?"

   "Look at what you said, it started again without saying a few good words. Who would have thought? I will only go to the city this year for half my life."

Mother Ye gave him a white look, "If you have the time to talk here, why don't you go to the boss and the second to help move the goods, there is not much left over there, move them all over and put them in the yard, and let Dongzi weigh them later at night. I have to send it again, otherwise it won't be enough to sell."

   "Understood, why are you in a hurry? My own goods can still run long? How much did you sell for?"

   "What are you counting? Didn't you tell me everything, did you sell it for two or three hundred? You don't need to count, the couple just count."

   "Is it okay to listen to me? You, if you are in a hurry, go and move it yourself." Father Ye stared back not to be outdone.

  Ye Yaodong quarreled when the two elders were talking, and was speechless, "Why don't you two move together? That way no one suffers?"

"As long as you have a lot of things to do, go and help with the work if you have free time." The old lady said while driving Father Ye outside, "Go, go, go, move a little here first, don't touch the ground, and tell me when you come here later." How much are you selling for?"

   Seeing this, Mother Ye also followed.

  The room was quiet, and the old lady didn't make a sound, so as not to disturb the couple counting the money.

After counting, she said with a smile: "It may be that during this period of time, it has been raining intermittently for many days, and people in the city are also thinking of saving some food for home, so it may be easier to sell in the future. "

Ye Yaodong nodded, "It's also possible. Anyway, our family saved a lot a few years ago. If we send another car in the early morning, the big brother and second brother will be vacated, and only our family is left. If we don't have a large number of deliveries, we can still sell them well." Long-term."

   "Sell slowly, sell slowly, and you will always make money."

   "Yes", Ye Yaodong looked at Lin Xiuqing again, "Put the money away, don't discount the new money."

Lin Xiuqing smiled, "No matter how new you are, don't you use it to wear it? Did you leave some change for my parents? If you need change, it will be troublesome if you can't find it. There are no shops around Change."

   "Yes, I left three or four yuan for a few cents, which is enough to find, so I didn't bring so many ten cents back today."

"Um."

At night, Ye Yaodong transported another truck to the city. He also brought two sets of desks. The two elderly people also needed to put one set. They were all bought by his mother. She asked for help, and bought two sets at depreciation, and they cost less than a few yuan.

  It's still made of solid wood~

When he arrived at the market at three o'clock in the morning, the lights in the market were bright and came out directly through the entrance. There was an endless stream of hawkers and carts coming and going, and the door of his shop was also wide open there, and there were some people coming in and out. guest.

Ye Yaodong jumped out of the car and was about to help, when he saw someone looking around, feeling around, and then grabbed a few pieces of dried fish while others were not paying attention, stuffed them into his padded jacket, looked around for a while, and want to go out.

   "What the hell? Did you meet three hands?"

  He stood directly at the door to block the thief's way.

  The thief didn't look like a habitual offender either. It must have been a spur-of-the-moment, a little greedy, so he stole a few pieces and put them in his clothes.

   Seeing him blocking the way, they still gave him a nervous look, clutched the hem of his clothes, and then moved to the side.

  Ye Yaodong also moved to the side at the same time, blocking the way, "Take out the things!"

   "What...what..."

  He didn't talk nonsense, he directly grabbed the thief's hand covering his stomach, turned around behind him, and instantly four or five large pieces of dried toad fish fell out of the hem of his clothes.

  The people who came in and out around saw it and immediately shouted in surprise, "Thief!"

   "There is a thief!"

  People in the shop also gathered around to watch.

   "Let go of me~"

  The thief struggled to run away, but Ye Yaodong couldn't catch him, kicked him twice, punched him, and let him run away.

  Lin's father and Lin's mother hurried forward, "It's a good thing you're here, otherwise someone would have stolen it."

   "There are quite a lot of people coming and going in this store, and we couldn't greet them. We didn't look carefully, and we didn't keep an eye on it. We were almost stolen."

   "It's okay, there are a lot of thieves, just two pairs of eyes, how can you stare at them?" Ye Yaodong said casually, and immediately called the guests present, don't pay attention.

  Guests entered the store again and began to pick.

Lin's father walked beside Ye Yaodong and said with a smile: "It's a good thing you shipped a car early, otherwise I was worried that there would not be enough to sell. It was not bright yet, and I sold 20 catties just after opening the door, and there was no place to pour it out, otherwise It's better to pour it out and sell it.”

   "Okay, when I come in two days, I will bring the whole bamboo bed, so that it will be easy to pick the dried fish when it is poured on the bamboo bed."

   "Hey hey."

Ye Yaodong has been helping in the store, from the dark to the dawn, there are fewer customers coming and going, and the goods on the tractor are occasionally lifted three or four bags down to the store, and he moves the rest to another The store serves as a warehouse.

  In the middle of the morning, more than 200 catties were also sold out. The sales volume is very gratifying. It is quite conspicuous to have a store, which is better than a group of people gathering there to set up a stall.

  Many of them are fishmongers who come and go to buy goods. When they see a store here, they come in and shop, and then buy some.

  He felt that the truck he pulled over today would only be enough to sell for a few days.
