Chapter 40: The First Great Ship
The construction of the pier is in full swing, and as night falls, the sound of machinery still comes from the beach. After Fang Zhen and the others ate, they also went over to help. Compared with before, they prefer the current life, incomparably free, no wonder the ancients said: life is precious, love is more valuable. If it is free, both can be thrown.
It wasn't until twelve o'clock in the evening that the five cement piles were finally laid, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, the crucial step had been completed, and the rest was not difficult.
Wei's mother carefully cooked two large pots of squid porridge for everyone to eat appetizingly. At this time, the wind on the sea is cooler, and one by one you sit on the beach to blow the wind and taste the delicious seafood porridge.
Speaking of which, the price of squid is not low, and wholesale costs about ten yuan a catty. However, by the sea, especially in fishing villages, squid is a bad street seafood and not very valuable.
After everyone was full, Li Yanting also helped to clean up the dishes and chopsticks. Their family is very grateful to Wei Hang, not to mention the care of Tang Dehui's two brothers and providing jobs, what excites them the most is that Wei Hang took out 20% of the profits of dried scallops and distributed them to the two daughters-in-law.
When they learned the news from Weihang, they were all shocked. Li Yanting and her sister-in-law know that the daily profit is almost 1,000 yuan. In this way, their family received more than 50,000 points every month. In the past, their family worked hard for a year, but they couldn't earn this amount.
Therefore, they have no opinion at all about what Wei Hang said that they will not pay wages in the future. Now, they are firmly tied to this job. After that, except for going home for dinner and doing some housework, almost all of the time was spent making dried scallops. Only in this way did they feel less ashamed.
"It's already late, so let's go back and rest first, and get up early tomorrow!" Wei Hang said. The most difficult part was done well, and he also relaxed.
Everyone listened and left one after another, they were not in the habit of staying up late, they worked at high intensity for six or seven hours, they were very tired, and they were indeed a little sleepy.
"Big brother, I'll hug it!" After Li Yanting cleaned up, she saw her eldest brother Tang Debiao holding the sleeping Belle, so she walked over and said.
"It's okay, I'll take the little girl home. Tang Debiao also returned home today. I also like this little niece very much.
Now, relying on his brother's relationship with Wei Hang, he can be regarded as squeezing into Wei Hang's circle. In fact, even if he doesn't work, relying on his wife's composition in Weihang, it is enough to live a prosperous life.
"Hey, this little girl fell asleep, and she didn't pay attention to the porridge just now. "I'm busy today, so I didn't pay much attention to Belle. At nine o'clock, the little girl was still by his side.
"Hehe! I fell asleep early. Hangzi, is the boat coming back tomorrow afternoon?" said Tang Debiao with a heartfelt smile.
Wei Hang nodded: "Hui Zai told me that I can return to Fisherman's Bay tomorrow afternoon." In addition to the three of them, there will be a crew at the helm. ”
To drive this kind of fishing boat, you don't just know how to drive it, and you need a driver's license, and they don't have any of them at the moment, so they can only hire that person to helm it for a month. According to Weihang's plan, he was going to let Tang Dehui and Sun Xucheng come back from the examination. Compared with the car test, it should not be so difficult, not that it is easier to drive a boat than to drive, but there are many people who take the car test, and now it is more and more difficult to pass.
The next day, all the wooden piles were steady, Lao Zhang Gong instructed everyone to lay the planks, and then tied the ropes neatly on both sides of the wharf to act as a fence, and a new and beautiful wharf was built. Wei Hang burned another string of firecrackers, announcing the completion of the wharf, and the village secretary and other village cadres came.
"When the boat comes back, won't you set up a few tables at the Wei family?" the village secretary joked.
Father Wei nodded seriously: "Definitely, when the time comes, the secretary will come and drink two glasses together." ”
A village committee member who was good at drinking immediately showed joy on his face: "Then it is better to be respectful than to obey your fate." ”
The old village chief and the others shook their heads with a wry smile, secretly saying that this guy is really a drunkard! If it weren't for the fact that he really had some ability and was more attentive to handling some things in the village, everyone would have dismissed him.
Actually, this village cadre is not a good position, he does not have much power, he does not have much money to make in the countryside, and he does not have a salary, and he is given a symbolic subsidy of more than 2,000 yuan a year.
At one o'clock in the afternoon, the beach of Fisherman's Bay gathered many people, old and young, both men and women, looking at the sea outside, and there was a hint of anticipation on their curious faces.
After receiving the call, Wei Hang learned that Tang Dehui and others had driven the fishing boat to the nearby waters, and they could return to Fisherman's Bay in about half an hour. When the news came, more than half of the people in the village ran over to see the excitement.
"Look, it's here, it's here!" shouted a guy with good sight, pointing to the spot where the fishing boat had appeared.
Wei Hang looked over, and a white fishing boat vaguely appeared on the sea in the distance. The fishing boat slowly approached, and everyone realized the size of the fishing boat.
"Good guy, such a big boat, no wonder it costs hundreds of thousands. ”
Wei Lixin felt a sense of pride in his heart at this moment, this ship will belong to his Wei family in the future, not to mention the entire Tangjia Village, it is the entire Fengqi Town, and this ship is also the largest ship.
"Brother Hang, can we go up and have a look later?" a young man asked, a little pleading and expectant in his tone.
Wei Hang nodded: "Yes, but don't go up in a swarm, go up in batches to visit." ”
This is also to avoid accidents, everyone can understand, the village secretary and the village chief immediately gave everyone a vaccination, and also asked everyone to line up, orderly visit, each time no more than 30 people board.
The boat slowly docked at the newly built dock, and Daniel Zhang walked from the boat to the pier, took the thick rope from Tang Dehui's hand, and bolted the boat to the pile of the pier.
"Thank you for your hard work this time. Wei Hang said to Daniel Zhang.
"Brother Hang, where are you talking about this? Several of us like our current work very much, I heard that the three of us left for two or three days, Brother Hang, you made a big fortune again, don't invite you to drink tonight?" Daniel Zhang grinned.
"Okay, let's have a banquet tonight, and invite everyone to have a meal. "Father Wei had already made a decision about this matter, and the relevant ingredients were all booked in the town, and he also notified the people in the village who were good at cooking to come over later to help.
Subsequently, Tang Dehui and the others asked Wei Hang to get on the ship, while visiting, while introducing, the last to the cockpit to focus on the master at the helm.
"Hello Master Huo, I have to rely on you in the next two months. Wei Hang shook hands with Master Huo.
Master Huo hurriedly waved his hand: "Don't dare to be, don't dare to be! I still have to rely on the boss to eat in the past two months!"
The old village chief took the villagers to visit on the boat, and let out a burst of exclamations, with this navigation artifact, the Wei family will not worry about a good life in the future.
