"Thanks to A Dong for this, he has been busy looking for connections these past few days, so that everyone can come out..."

"Originally, each person had to be ransomed for 500 yuan, and the fishing boat had to pay a ransom of several hundred yuan before he could be released. It was Dongzi who asked for help and was able to match the local price of 300 yuan."

"Ah, are the locals paying us the same price?"

"Isn't that right? Locals are also locals after all. We outsiders must be punished a little harder. Now we are all punished the same. It's all Dongzi's credit."

"Yes, thanks to A Dong, everyone must thank him..."

Ye Yaodong sneered in his heart. When he was arrested, he still criticized him. In the afternoon, he shamelessly asked him to help redeem people. He took what he did for granted. But now they all changed their tune and started to give him rainbow farts.

Some people are really mean. If you treat them well, they will slap you in the face. If you treat them more harshly, they will say all kinds of good things to you in return.

"Everyone must not forget our roots. This time we are able to come out because of A Dong's credit. From now on, we will do whatever A Dong says and we will all listen to him."

"If anything happens in the future, Dongzi, just call us..."

"From now on, Adong's affairs are our affairs..."

These people who had just been released were frightened inside, but now they are indeed grateful to him from the bottom of their hearts, and their words are much more sincere than others.

Ye Yaodong smiled and said to everyone: "It's so late and it's already past 10 o'clock. Everyone must be physically and mentally exhausted just after being released. Some of the uncles are also old. After this, they have to go to bed early at night."

"We just came back from a few hours of walking at night and are very tired, so I won't greet you. We have to take a shower and eat something later. We haven't eaten since the afternoon, and I won't be able to bear it anymore.

.”

Someone immediately stood up in a sensible manner and said, "Okay, then you guys eat first and go to bed early in the evening. We will go back first and come back tomorrow. Let's discuss whether we can go back when the rain stops? We just had a chat, some

People can’t bear to go back like this without making any money.”

"Then let's wait until tomorrow to discuss it. It's already ten o'clock now and everyone is exhausted just after we got back, so I won't hold you back."

When one person stands up, everyone else also stands up, and they very wisely go back first.

They also have to go back and discuss the next charter.

After a day of rain and a whole day of walking, many people were so hungry that their legs were weak. Ye Yaodong had already sneezed several times as soon as he took off his raincoat and sat down.

The boatmen also brought out the meals that had been reserved long ago. Everyone did not bother to take a shower, so they all sat down and wolfed down the meal.

Anyway, they are all grown men, so there is nothing to be embarrassed about.

Although some people left the entire lobby, most of them were still there. There was originally person No. 33, and 12 people were redeemed for him. Now there are still 45 people in the main room, densely packed in the corners.

Some of them had no place to sit, so they stood against the wall, watching them eat.

Ye Yaodong ate a bowl of rice to temporarily fill his stomach. He ate the second bowl a little slower. Then he looked at the eyes of the people around him and said vaguely: "Don't just look at me. How do you plan your sleep at night?"

Adjustment."

"There are only 4 rooms in total, and there is also a woodshed and kitchen. You can make the arrangements yourself. There is no room to lay a floor in the room, so just lay out a mat at the foot of the main room and sleep. In this kind of weather, it is difficult to go out.

It’s good to have a place to shelter from the wind and rain, so we can make do with it.”

"Don't sleep on the boat at night. I feel like it's been windy and rainy these past few days because of typhoons. Safety comes first."

If it were not too late now, he would have wanted to sail the boat to the safe harbor now, but now he could only wait until tomorrow to sail the boat there.

"Also, we have 15 more people. Those of you who came back early should also know that you will take them back to the town when the time comes. This period of time can be regarded as the work I invited. Everyone can live together peacefully."

After everyone listened to his instructions, they immediately started to move.

We came back a few hours early, and everyone just had a meal. We didn't even make any arrangements for sleeping, so we just sat there chatting with a group of people.

After Father Ye ate three large bowls of rice, he burped and turned to ask him, "Tell me what happened these days?"

"good."

Ye Yaodong was also full and told everyone what happened in the past half month.

The people at the dinner table who had just returned listened in silence for a long time before someone spoke up.

"It's a pity that we were arrested, otherwise we might have been able to arrest more..."

"Yes, so many boats and people were captured on both sides, and the rest were all taken advantage of by those who were not captured."

Father Ye also said with emotion, "This is considered better than others. Everyone is still squatting in the prison, and you are making money."

"How did you get caught?"

Speaking of this, Father Ye got angry, "I got on a boat you rented. As soon as I got on the boat and tried to untie the rope and leave the shore, the police came and climbed on the boat and arrested me. I was so angry that I almost died."

You can run away in just one moment, which makes me spend so many days in jail."

"Okay, I hope I got out safely and didn't suffer any injuries."

"Don't tell your mother when you go back, so as not to worry her."

"Save her the chance to scold me?"

Father Ye glared at him and changed the subject, "Will you go back when the rain stops?"

"That's what I think. Go back early and send all the people on the boat back first."

After all, everyone was frightened during this trip and had been imprisoned for a few days. Anyway, he had earned tens of thousands of dollars and was content to send these people back safely first.

There aren't that many left, so we don't need that many people. We can save a lot of money by going back early.

Then you can come back later, and then you won’t have to bring so many people.

Father Ye looked at the people on the table looking at them and listening to their words, "The people who were just released must not be willing to give in, right? They have to go back in despair before they make any money. Some ship bosses still owe money."

Hundreds, even thousands, of head redemption fees."

"Then ignore them. Anyway, I did what I had to do. I helped fish out the people who needed to be fished out. The rest is up to their personal choices. If you want to stay and continue fishing, then stay.

If anyone is willing to go back with me first, then go back."

"That's okay. After all, there are so many of us, and you also agreed to bring back all the people in the town. Have they sent back the news?"

"Not yet. This matter is too serious. The people are gone and the boat is gone. The 15 boatmen who stayed here probably won't be able to explain themselves when they go back. They didn't dare to call back during this period, and they don't have time either.

We only had a break these two days because of heavy rain.”

"Oh, there's been a lot of trouble now. We're really lucky. We saved our lives. We'd better go back as soon as possible."

Ye Yaodong looked at the increasing number of people gathered around the dinner table. He thought for a moment and said to everyone: "We will go back when the rain stops. Everyone is thinking about it after this trip. Go back early and feel at ease."

"

"The day before I plan to leave for home, I will pay you the wages. I will pay you now. You have probably used them to gamble in the past few days. This trip was earned with your life tied to your belt. Gambling

What a shame to lose."

Everyone nodded and agreed.

"Also, I was caught and ransomed today for 300 yuan per head. I will bear it for you. After all, you came out with me, and you suffered such a big crime. I won't ask you to pay for the money that should be paid by you."

.”

"And for so many days, your wages have been paid as usual. Although you have not worked, you have been affected, and your wages will not be less. When the time comes, I will send you a big red envelope, everyone will have it.

It should be treated as both a thank you and a relief."

"Those 15 people in the town have wages but no red envelopes. After all, they picked them up halfway and did not come out with me."

Everyone had smiles on their faces, relaxed expressions, and thanked him again and again.

Those 15 people were also very happy. It was good to be able to earn wages halfway.

"A Dong is still humane. He redeemed us immediately and gave us more than we should have."

"You are following the right person. If you think about the people who have not been redeemed, you will know that you are right to follow Dongzi."

"This trip was full of surprises, but at least everyone came out."

"I hope the rain will stop soon, go back quickly, and stay longer, my heart will be there."

"It's better to go back early. Doesn't it mean that we have the same price as the locals? We were redeemed, and the local onlookers must have been redeemed in these few days. Many of them are fishermen, and there will definitely be more people fishing by then.

.”

Upon hearing this, Father Ye immediately said: "Tomorrow, ask your eldest and second brothers to come back with us when the rain stops. Don't stay here and take any more risks."

After being imprisoned once, Ye's father was frightened.

"Yeah. It's very late. Let's clear the table and take a rest."

He also went to take a shower, and then spread a mat with others to sleep in the lobby.

Father Ye and others were lying next to him, and they were still talking about how scared they were in the police station, for fear that they would never be able to go back. When they talked about the excitement, they quietly wiped away their tears twice.

"It's over, don't think about it. If you survive a catastrophe, you will be lucky in the future. And there will probably be a new policy coming out in the next two days. Those who have applied for an iron plate will be safer by then, and patrols at sea will be strengthened."

"If we don't save some lives or save some big things, we can't think of corresponding policies. What are these people really doing? If we had made it more formal earlier, we wouldn't have killed so many people, injured so many people, and arrested so many people."

Ye Yaodong didn't answer the call, and nothing serious happened. Who would pay attention to it? What's more, there is chaos everywhere these days. It can't be controlled on land, so how can it be controlled at sea.

Those in charge of the sea are also there to catch smugglers, or escort... Who cares about the trivial matter of fishermen's fights? If no one is killed, it is not a big deal to them.

Even if a human life is lost, in this country where communication is underdeveloped and laws and regulations are imperfect, it all depends on whether the local government pays attention to it or not, and if it is rarely reported or not reported at all, it is not a big deal.

"How much did you earn on this trip?"
