Chapter 817: Preparing to Launch Again
The sky is clear and the sun is shining, and although the heat will be a little hotter, it is better than a rainy day.
In the days when the two boats were resting, Father Ye helped someone to repaint them together, and they were all dry on the two days when they were sunny.
Taking advantage of the good weather, he also dried and put away the last batch of squid and dried fish, but before he could go to sea in a well-maintained fishing boat, there were unforeseen storms and clouds, and thunder and rain suddenly began at noon.
Originally, the small workshop had just filled in the foundation in the past few days, and as soon as a small piece of the adobe wall was built, it encountered a heavy downpour, and the wall that had just been built collapsed.
Ye Yaodong waited for the rain to stop in the afternoon and took a look, only to find that the walls of the fort had fallen down in the past two days, and there was mud everywhere.
After the rain stopped, Father Ye also ran over to see it as soon as he was worried, and went back to the house to discuss it after reading it.
"Dongzi, it seems that it is not possible to make an adobe wall, this will be a typhoon in July, August and September, this wall has not been dry for a few days, in case of heavy rain, it has not been long since this base was built, and it has collapsed frequently, and it can't be done, it can't be done. No stone wall is as strong as a brick wall, at least it can be built with stone and brick, and it can be used for decades. ”
In fact, there is no need for his father to say, he has just seen it, the small workshop is directly facing the sea, sometimes the tide hits, and it will be a little more humid when it comes up, and the adobe wall is not very good.
In fact, in the first two days of construction, he sat idle in the small workshop because of shoulder pain, and the foreman also mentioned two sentences to him, saying that the soil embryo wall is not very moisture-resistant, and when it encounters a lot of rain, it is not very firm.
He also thought that since it had been decided, he would build it up first, and it should be able to be firm for a few days on a sunny day, and it should be many years before it collapsed, but he didn't expect it to rain heavily in just a few days, and the wall that had just been built had not dried out, so it collapsed directly because of the heavy rain.
"I know, fortunately, the foundation was laid a few days ago, and this soil wall has just been built for two or three days, and I can still stop the loss, and I will go to the foreman later, and let him still pile up stones."
"Well, let's spend a little more money, after all, it can be built for decades, and I bought it anyway, and I'm not afraid of being occupied and demolished."
"It's more time-consuming to go to the mountains to transport stones, and there is no brick factory nearby. Forget it, anyway, I'll talk to the foreman later, and continue to dig the stone and build the stone wall. In the future, I won't dry so much every day, at most, I will dry a batch of dried fish every once in a while, and dry it in the open space with the eldest brother and the second brother at the door first. ”
"There is a lot of inventory during this time, and it should be able to sell for a while, anyway, if there is weather, it will be dried at the door."
"Hmm."
After the father and son negotiated, they went to the foreman together and changed it to a stone wall.
This year's weather is also good, there are very few continuous rainy days, most of them stop in the next two days, unlike last year, when the rainy season arrives, it can be said that it has been intermittently for a whole month.
For their seaside people, the most important thing is that there is no wind and no waves, and the wind and rain are smooth.
Lin Xiuqing knew that he had to rebuild the stone wall, and he didn't say anything, they all made a lot of money during the flood season, and now they will spend more money, and it is more important to be firm.
Just waited for him to come back and asked, "When are we going to invite the little statue of Mazu on the boat, I heard that many people in the village found a good time to invite them on the boat the day after Mazu moved into the Tianhou Temple." ”
"Dad has been looking for materials in his free time for the past two days, and has welded an iron plate in the cabins of 4 boats, and now he will invite Mazu on the ship to find a good day."
"Then I'll go buy a few incense burners tomorrow and come back, and buy more incense to come back, see what time it is, and buy a few things in advance when the time comes, please get on the boat on the first day to get a little decent."
"Hmm." Ye Yaodong listened to the movement next door, and also knew that his two elder brothers had come back from going to sea, "The eldest brother and the second brother are so diligent, they haven't fallen for a day, so it's raining heavily today, so come back early." ”
"yes, but they don't make as much as you." Lin Xiuqing said this, quite a sense of honor.
He smiled, "It's true, but I think I have a few thousand dollars on hand." ”
"There must be a few thousand dollars, and I haven't seen them spend money."
"It's said that the more people who can spend money, the more they will make money."
Lin Xiuqing took a sip of him, "Don't put gold on your face." ”
"That's the truth. And I spend all my money for you, I don't spend it for myself, you look at the big pieces I bought, aren't they all for you? Sewing machine, radio, TV set ......"
"Did you forget your bike? You're riding the bike, and you're riding the machine, and all that mess, and you're using it, or who else is using it? ”
Ye Yaodong thought about it, he was right, these were all used by him.
"Yes, that's half and half...... That's not right, don't you ride a bicycle too? The machinery on the ship is to make better money, but not to enjoy, I spend it for a purpose, and I buy it for entertainment. ”
"You didn't listen to the radio? You haven't watched the TV? You don't wear clothes made of sewing machines? ”
"That's different, I'm not interested in those, I bought it for you, how many times have you seen me hear it? I've seen ...... a few times."
She smiled and said, "Okay, okay, you bought these for us, for the whole family, everyone has benefited." ”
Ye Yaodong was satisfied, and it was good to admit it.
The heavy rain at noon directly darkened the sky, and now that the rain has stopped, it is evening, and it seems darker, he stood at the door in the direction of the beach, only to see the waves surging, and the water level of the rising tide is obviously higher than before, which is brought by the heavy rain.
He estimated that he should not be able to go out to sea at night, but fortunately the flood season has passed, and there was no continuous heavy rain and waves during the flood season, and there was no delay in making a lot of money.
It was not until three days later that the sea was calm and the sun was high again in the sky, and he continued to go out to sea.
The sky in June, the sun is shining, the sea is bright and dazzling, the calm sea surface is sparkling, making people's eyes shine, standing on the boat, enjoying the light sea breeze, smelling the fresh seafood, the mood is not comfortable, quite tired.
I haven't been out to sea for more than ten days, and I feel that my bones are a little lazy, and when I first came out at night, I was quite energetic, and after a whole night and a morning, my body felt tired.
As soon as he had a simple lunch, leaning on the side of the boat to slow down, he saw that his father had also driven the boat over, probably just after towing a net, and seeing that their boat was stopped there, he thought that it should be lunch and came over.
"Lots of goods, daddy?"
"It's okay, the waves were strong two days ago, and the seafood was swept in, and several deep-sea fish were just dragged." Father Ye happily turned his head from the bamboo basket next to him, and took out a big-eyed sea bream of about two catties and gave him a look.
The red color is bright, and the scales on the fish's body are still stained with water, which looks a little shiny in the sun.
"This fish is okay, I dragged a lot of nine-section shrimp, and from the night to now, the small basket should be about 20 catties."
"Then we have it too, but not as many as you, it should be eight or nine pounds."
"That's not bad, this shrimp is expensive, and the harvest is good today."
Ye Yaodong thought that he hadn't been in the water for a long time, and there were still a lot of Jiang Jue who hadn't been collected before he was underwater, so he thought for a while and said: "Dad, you eat first, I'll change positions with Brother Ah Sheng after eating, the eldest cousin and Brother Ah Sheng will go to trawl the net, and my father and I will go to collect the ground cage and shrimp pot, and by the way, find out if there is any Jiang Jue nearby, and the division of labor will not be delayed." ”
To put it bluntly, it would be better for him to find Jiang Jue nearby, so as not to wait for a while if he harvested a bunch on the ship, he would have to explain it separately.
It is reasonable to instruct the two of them to go to the trawl first, and the two of them will not be delayed, and they can understand the idea that he and his father do not let people know the specific location.
Everyone had no opinion, they all nodded, and they did whatever the owner said.
Ye Yaodong also treated them very favorably, as soon as the flood season ended, he immediately asked Ah Qing to settle his salary, and told them that he would settle the salary directly on a monthly basis, 60 yuan a month, regardless of whether he went to sea or not, how many times he went out, anyway, he fixed both of them.
It's also because they performed very well during that time, they were very diligent, and it was troublesome to count them by day, and they had to count the days all the time, and they didn't have to work when they were free, and they were anxious to find work temporarily.
I haven't been to sea during this time, so it can be said that I have taken a paid vacation, and it's also cool, don't want it.
In fact, it is already good to be able to go to sea for half a month every day.
They are all relatives, and it was really hard some time ago, anyway, he is now in these two boats before the big ship arrives, and he doesn't plan to let them out for the time being, and it is good for his family to determine the two of them to be long-term workers, and if they do other work temporarily, he is not easy to find someone.
They also don't have to worry about unstable income, and they can work harder day after day.
Ye Yaodong waited for his father to eat noodles briefly, and exchanged them with Ye Yaosheng.
The ship his father drove was his first ship, and it was also the longest and most emotional, in fact, if you really counted it, this ship did not have the second and third new ones that were obtained from the pirates.
But there is always a first complex, and I always feel that the first boat is more comfortable.
Father Ye looked at the boat next to him and drove away before saying, "It's going to be launched now, or a little later, the ground cage and shrimp pot were only released at night, and it's too early to collect it, right?" Will you collect it tomorrow? ”
"I'll take it tomorrow evening, I just talked about it casually, and if I make an excuse, I'll take the boat to the reef first."
If he didn't take away all the Jiang Jue under the seabed, he always felt that the task was not completed, and he felt that something was hanging there and not finished.
Although he and Ah Zheng took turns to collect a few hundred catties last month, who knows if it was a dime.
Take advantage of the good weather and find a chance to explore it, and it's hard to say if there are other unexpected gains, after all, the bottom of the sea is a natural treasure trove, and you have no idea how many good things are hidden underneath.
