Chapter 1180 The ship is almost there again(2/3)

Still no money."

Someone didn't respond.

"Isn't that all in vain?"

"It's all been exchanged for goods, and it won't turn into money until the goods are sold."

"Then it's better to keep the money in your hands instead of changing it around like this..."

Ye Yaodong was speechless and looked at Xiao Wu with a troubled expression. Xiao Wu was only two years older than Chen Shi and was not married yet.

"You deserve to be a part-time job, so you should work hard for me."

Xiao Wu rubbed his head and didn't feel that he had said anything wrong.

"We are ready to set up the net. We will go back after holding on for another three or four days."

"good."

The two ships stayed at sea for another three or four days before they docked to sell their goods. After selling the goods, they were barely able to repay Pei's father's loan, but they didn't have enough money to refuel and go back, so they had to go to the store to get some more.

Life is so difficult, it all depends on having enough industry.

Lin Xiuqing didn't know that his trip would last so long. She heard him say a few words before going to sea. She thought he would go to Zhejiang Province on the 5th to pick up goods and then come back directly to the city. Unexpectedly, he wouldn't wait until the 12th.

See people.

"Except for the typhoon last time, this is the first time I've seen you go out to sea for such a long time."

"Well, the plan couldn't keep up with the change, and the weather looked good, so I decided to stay a few more days. Anyway, I went ashore to rest, but I didn't have the money to bring it back."

"Did you even use all the settlement money from the city to pay for the goods?"

"Yes, it's not enough. It's a little short. I borrowed some from Uncle Pei, which was just used to pay the deposit for the next batch of goods. So after I brought the goods to the city, I went fishing again when the weather was good.

I just made enough money to pay back the money."

"That's okay. I didn't take any money from home. The money earned by the store was just used to pay for the goods."

"Money is used to buy goods, and the goods turn into money, and then the money turns into goods again. It seems that the money has never been in the hands. It just passes through the hands. Have you seen the money increase?" Ye Yaodong said jokingly.

He knew clearly that money turned into more goods, and the goods would turn into more money after they were sold, but he still couldn't help but say a few words.

Lin Xiuqing smiled and said: "You are testing whether I have been fooled. Won't the sales of this batch of goods turn into more money? How could I get so much money out in the first place?"

He repeated what Xiao Wu said on the boat.

"You are still smart."

"It shows that he has a straight mind and only one thing, and he doesn't know how to make twists and turns."

After Lin Xiuqing finished speaking, she hurriedly said: "Oh, by the way, the ship that you three brothers jointly owned, Ah Hai said two days ago that it should be ready for delivery in ten days and a half. Let you check the date in advance.

In case there is no good time at the moment, we have to postpone it again."

Ye Yaodong was pleasantly surprised, "That's quite fast. I just thought about it some time ago, and now it won't take long to hand it over."

"Yes, let me tell you in advance that you will make time when the time comes."

"Okay, do you think your life will be better?"

"After reading it, she didn't know where she bought a book specifically for telling the time. It said that the seventeenth is a good day. It happens to be half a month away, so it won't be so rushed."

"Does she know how to read?"

"Then don't underestimate my mother. She is not idle either. The other women who follow the Women's Federation also recognize a lot of characters. If you say you don't know the characters, you will be laughed at. After all, you are also a public servant. How can you not recognize them?

Character."

He didn't believe it, "Aren't those times all in traditional Chinese characters? She doesn't even know simplified Chinese characters, how can she still know traditional Chinese characters?"

Lin Xiuqing raised her chin and motioned for him to look at the door, "Mom is here, ask her."

Mother Ye just came in with a smile on her face.

"I heard that you can set up a fortune-telling stall and read people's birth dates?"

"What?" Ye Mu was a little confused.

"I heard that you bought a book and studied the bad luck of the 12 hours of the day."

"It's not that our family has more and more boats. Every time we buy a boat, we have to wait and see how long it will take to get the boat back. It's better to buy a book instead of having to go to the husband's house to ask questions."

"Do you really understand? And you have this talent?"

"I asked the village committee to help me see. This is not about building a house, but simply sailing the boat back. As long as the life is good, it doesn't need to calculate the birth dates of the whole family, so there is no need to find a husband and waste money. You can do it yourself.

To see whether the day is good or bad, just look for the tide."

After speaking, he added: "I am also learning now. Let them teach me to read. Don't underestimate me. I can recognize many words now. Although I say I can't write, I know them."

Ye Mu said with a proud look, "Recognize more traditional Chinese characters, and then we can read them ourselves, so we don't have to bother others all day long."

Ye Yaodong gave his mother a thumbs up. He has grown up. He no longer hangs out with other women, gossiping and judging people. He can also learn to tell the time.

"Then if you work hard, your family will have more time to look at the future."

Mother Ye was all smiles, "Isn't that right? Two days ago, I told everyone that our family was going to sail a big boat back. Everyone was so envious. They said that there was smoke coming out of our ancestral graves, and the boats were coming one after another."

"I asked them to check the date for me, and they all said that it would be more convenient for me to just buy a book and read it myself. They said that we have to check the date every day, and there will be good things at home every now and then."

"I think what they said makes sense. There are several ships behind you. I have to learn this. We will see how we live in the future."

"They are all so envious. They say that the more your three brothers buy, the bigger their boats become. There is no one more promising than you..."

The more Ye Mu talked about it, the more proud she became. Living to this age, the most glorious moments in her life have been these few years.

"...Everyone praised me for my ability to give birth, and each one was better than the other. They all said that if they had known I would have had more children when I was younger, I might be more blessed now..."

Damn, this is gossiping and studying at the same time.

It seems to be of high quality.

I know all the characters and can read traditional Chinese characters.

The whole person has been sublimated.

Mother Ye kept talking happily, and Ye Yaodong didn't interrupt her. It was rare for her to be so happy, so there was no need for him to spoil it.

It is the greatest pride of a parent to keep his children up to date.

His mother has indeed grown up, and she can actually work hard to read and learn to read the day.

After filling his stomach, he went to rest for a while, then went to talk to his eldest and second brothers about the fishing boat, and asked Ye Chenghai to talk about the situation of the fishing boat.

After more than half a year of experience, Ye Chenghai has matured a lot, becoming less naive and more energetic.

Ye Yaodong heard that he was speaking eloquently and convincingly, and even patted him on the shoulder.

"That's right. The half-year class was not in vain. I also learned a lot."

"Hehe, I'm not just going to be lazy as a foreigner, I'm here to learn my skills."

"I'm so lazy at home that I don't hold up the broom when it falls over. You can't do that outside."

"No way, the master said I am very diligent."

"I'll graduate from junior high school in the first half of next year, and go to high school in the second half of the year..."

Ye Chenghai turned his head in surprise, "Isn't it enough for me to go to junior high school? I have said before that after graduating from junior high school, I can go to work directly to make money."

"Look at your potential!" Ye Yaopeng also stared at him.

Ye Yaodong put his shoulder on his shoulder and said earnestly: "You are still young, and you can't make much money if you go to work now. And even if you graduate next year, you have only been an apprentice for one year. How much salary can I give you?"

"When you have a diploma, your salary will definitely be higher than if you didn't have a diploma. If you can't get into a technical secondary school or university, it will be too late to go directly to a factory."

Ye Chenghai's whole face turned down, "Didn't we agree? I will officially start working after I graduate from junior high school and no longer need to study. Why do you ask me to go to high school again?"

"Are you stupid? Is graduating from high school the same as graduating from junior high school? If you tell me that you graduated from high school, people in the factory will look down on you. Compared with other apprentices, you have a degree. Isn't it easier to become a skilled worker in the future?

A little? The chances are a little greater than others, right?"

"You're trying to fool me again! A Yuan even said he wanted to be a soldier when he graduated from junior high school, so I can't join the factory after I graduate from junior high school?"

"He will be 18 when he graduates from junior high school next year, and you will only be 16 when you graduate from junior high school. Be obedient and get a high school diploma, which is better than directly entering the factory."

Ye Yaohua also interrupted, "Yes, listen to your third uncle. Your third uncle is capable and knowledgeable. What he says cannot be wrong."

"But I can't pass the exam."

Ye Yaodong was choked and suddenly remembered that high school is not something you can just go to.

"You can't pass the exam? Is it difficult?"

"Nonsense, our teacher said that it would be good if 20 or 30 of the four and a half classes go to high school."

"What's your current score in Chinese and Mathematics?"

"Sixty to seventy."

"Forget it, then you can carry the bucket directly into the factory next year. It broke at the beginning, no wonder the rest of it doesn't work."

Ye Chenghai was happy and didn't care about his disapproval, "I told you earlier that I'm not good at studying. I just go to work. It would be great to make money early. Studying is a waste of time."
