Chapter 192: I'm Not a Waste Now

When Ye Yaodong sold the remaining fish with large and small sizes, he sold a total of almost 50 yuan, and about 8 catties of soft silk sold for more than 5 yuan.

The villagers who had not yet left were moved again, compared to the harvest, what was the money for this bait?

asked Ye Yaodong what a thousand hooks he ordered, and only received two rounds in total, and he sold so many goods, and he thought about it.

1000 hooks, a round of a few dozen fish plus other goods are very good, you must know that there are no small fish caught by the longline, and several rounds can be collected at intervals a day.

Ye Yaodong didn't mind the villagers following suit, the sea area was so wide.

He had so many goods on board, and there was a basket on the boat, and the fishing line hook that had not yet been lifted down, and everyone saw it.

After collecting all the documents, he grabbed two of the 4 soft wires left for his father, this one was more than half a catty, and he also left two about 2 catties of horsefish, and one person also divided one.

The goods must be sold, and the food must be eaten.

After making an appointment to leave at 3 o'clock in the morning, Ye Yaodong pushed the cart to his home, which was loaded with ten baskets of hooks in addition to bait.

He wants to ask someone to tidy up overnight and send it over, the loss of the hook today is not big, please ask two people to tidy up for two or three hours should be almost good, the day after tomorrow is estimated to have to rest and slowly repair.

When he got home, it was already dark, and the eldest and the youngest had not yet eaten, and they were all waiting for him.

Ye Yaodong said helplessly: "I didn't tell you, if it's too late, don't wait for me, you and the two children will eat first."

"It's not too late now, it's just early in the dark, eat first, and then take a shower later."

"I brought a horse to the fish, you will watch it tomorrow, I caught a lot of soft silk today, I brought two back, you feed the little one, and I will boil the water and boil it."

Lin Xiuqing nodded, the youngest son was the most troublesome to eat.

In addition to fish, the seafood is very fresh, and there is no need for complicated cooking methods such as frying, frying and stewing, and the seaside people also eat it very clearly.

After the two soft silks are cooked, they are cut into sections like doughnuts, dipped in soy sauce and vinegar to eat, it is convenient and delicious, not only adults love to eat, but his two sons eat directly with their hands.

After the separation, he kept whatever he wanted every day, and he would leave a different one every day, and he asked his wife to cook dry rice, which was not enough rice, so he spent money to ask the people in the village to be even, and the two children looked much better during this time, and they also had more meat.

Lin Xiuqing is the same, her face looks much ruddy.

Before, a large family had to eat and drink, and it was difficult for Ye Mu.

After Ye Yaodong had a full meal, he didn't care about taking a bath, and after taking a look at the ambergris in the house, he took advantage of the fact that it was still early, and hurriedly ran to Ah Zheng's house to borrow his hand to throw the net, and also found a piece of wood to come back by the way.

When he came back, he took a bath and the children slept, so he had time to touch the ambergris.

Lin Xiuqing also put on a piece of clothing and came out of the house, "What is this, why does it smell fishy, I see you mysterious?"

Ye Yaodong smiled, "Don't ask what it is, you just need to know that it's a big baby, it's worth more than your Merlot Bead."

"Just such an ugly stone?"

Lin Xiuqing was surprised, although Mei Le Zhu looked small, but it was so beautiful, it was very pleasing to the eye, this ugly broken stone in front of him was even more valuable than Mei Le Zhu?

….

She couldn't believe it.

"Well, don't say anything, if this thing leaks out, our family won't want to live in peace. Take it out at night and dry it before you can store it."

"What is it?"

"You'll know later, and don't let the child see that the child doesn't have the door on his mouth."

"Okay, don't ask without asking." She was curious, but she didn't have to know.

The piece of wood that Ye Yaodong will bring back, referring to the shape of this piece of ambergris, is simply carved with a knife, and the matter of falsification should be done sooner rather than later, just in case.

It doesn't have to be exactly one, either

As long as the shape is similar, after all, people have only looked at it from a distance, how can they remember it so clearly.

"What are you doing here?"

"Make a copy, just in case."

"Is this thing so valuable? Be so cautious?"

Ye Yaodong thought about it, and told her what he wanted to happen at sea, but he didn't say what it was.

"You think they're going to come to the door with a lot of perseverance."

"I'm not afraid of 10,000, I'm afraid of what if, in case the family comes back to their senses and remembers what this thing is, it's certain that they will come to the door, and making a fake can also block people's mouths and save trouble."

"Oh."

After Ye Yaodong carved the shape into a similar one, he went out to the small shop to buy two buckets of paint, one white and one gray, the ambergris was light gray, and he tried to make it similar.

Fishing boats by the sea often need to be painted for maintenance, and it is convenient to buy two buckets of paint in the village.

"You go back to the house and sleep, the paint smells heavy, you smell less, I'll just take the back door and get it casually."

Lin Xiuqing nodded, she felt that he was a little blind.

Ye Yaodong took a piece of broken clay cylinder, put a little bit of paint of two colors on the clay cylinder, stirred and stirred, adjusted the color to be almost similar, painted the wood, and repaired it after finishing.

With the help of the light in the room, he put the two things together and compared them, which looked very different up close, but from a distance, they were very similar, and he would think that they were the same thing.

Anyway, he doesn't have to make it the same, and Li Lao Er didn't take it in his hand and look at it, just look at it from a distance.

After finishing it, they were put in a hidden place to dry naturally, fortunately, their house was in a good location, there were no residents around, and the eldest brother and the second brother's house couldn't go to his side at night.

After the ten baskets of hooks were sorted out and sent over, he checked them before putting away his things and going back to the house to sleep.

In the early hours of the morning, I deliberately got up early to put away the two real and fake ambergris, put the fake ones directly on the board car, and took them to the sea.

The real ambergris didn't dry overnight, so he put it in a basket, put a towel in it, hung it on the wall near the door and continued to dry, so that his daughter-in-law didn't go out if he had nothing to do, so he sat at the door and weaved a net and watched.

After breakfast, and brought a boxed lunch, he pushed the cart out, but he didn't expect the wind to rise again at night, the boat just drove out not far away, the waves rolled, the hull shook so much, people have to hold on to things to stand firm, the waves still hit the boat from time to time, he had to return.

The other ships also didn't go far, and when they saw that it was really dangerous, they returned again.

….

The hope of going to sea was disappointed, and the bait could not be wasted, so I bought some ice cubes and sent them directly to Ah Cai, and waited for the sea tomorrow to come back to get them.

Ye Yaodong went back and slept again.

Since he can't go to sea today, he plans to go to the town to buy materials and ask his mother to help weave a big net.

"Would you like to go around town together?"

"Not going, aren't you? There's nothing to do when I go, there's nothing to buy."

"Go buy a few pieces of cloth, buy a few catties of cotton, make a few thick cotton jackets, the weather is a little cold, and in two months, it will not be convenient for you to go out." The old lady will have to make her two thicker padded jackets, and I won't buy those."

Lin Xiuqing frowned, "The whole family does it? Isn't it too much? It's too early, isn't it?"

"What's more? If you touch the padded jacket in the closet, it's all a lump, and you can put it away in advance, and you won't be in a hurry if it's temporary. In case it suddenly gets cold, your clothes are not warm, and you have to spend money on medicine. We also have some money on hand now, so we don't have to be so tight, didn't we just earn more than 170 for you yesterday?"

"Okay."

Spending money on medicine persuaded her.

After Ye Yaodong took the two children to Ye's mother, he took the ambergris to the room and hung it, and then locked the door before going out with confidence.

Their rural fishermen don't have bills, and they don't go to the supply and marketing cooperatives, and there are many things in the alleys that can be bought without bills.

And the price is cheaper than that of the supply and marketing cooperatives, so the way to come is not very serious.

Lin Xiuqing went around several houses in the alley, compared and compared, and only then did he buy two pieces of 3 meters of thick cotton cloth of different colors, and 9 meters of the cheapest dark blue thick cotton cloth, as well as 6 catties of cotton.

"Is it enough?" Ye Yaodong doesn't know how to make clothes, but he also thinks that 6 catties of cotton is too little.

Lin Xiuqing glanced at him, didn't speak, just checked out and left, and urged him to hurry up to buy fishing net materials.

Ye Yaodong saw that she had to go to the fishing tackle store to buy the materials for weaving nets, and when he went back, he learned that his wife bought all the fabrics for the whole family, and the old lady bought two sets, but he didn't buy his own.

No wonder he felt that the flower cloth seemed to be a little less, and the last time she made him a dress, she told him that he had to buy two meters, and so did cotton.

He pursed his lips a little unhappily.

Lin Xiuqing explained: "I was thinking that I could make two sets of cotton by removing the cotton in the old cotton jacket, so there was no need to spend that money......

Seeing that his face was dark, she didn't know why she felt a little weak, obviously she also wanted to save a little, and it cost more than 60 yuan to go out today for fabrics, cotton and fishing net materials......

She pulled his sleeve with a smile, "I haven't gone out at home, and it's not like the two children are still growing up, so it's not necessary to make new clothes for the New Year, I'll wait for the New Year to do it with you, except for the old lady's, you only bought one set today."

She didn't say that it was okay, but she said that Ye Yaodong's face was darker, and it turned out that the number had been reduced again......

"I only bought a set of cotton clothes and cotton pants of fabric cotton?"

"Two sets of old ladies!"

"Am I not working hard to earn money now?"

Lin Xiuqing has never seen him angry, he has always been hippie and smiling, and his stinky face has always been aimed at others, he has been married for a few years, and he has never put down his face to her......

I also felt as if I was doing something wrong.

She peeked into his eyes, carefully hooked his fingers, and said tentatively, "Are you angry?"

Ye Yaodong looked at her rare weakness of heart, and was silent for a while before sighing helplessly, and holding her hand with his backhand.

"Why are you so wronged by yourself? I can earn money now, not waste."
