Early the next morning, as soon as the genius was dim, Ye Yaodong got up.

He stood at the door of his house and watched the tide on the sea rise and fall, and also saw that the kelp in the open space next to it had dried on the beach.

The village cadres listened to what they said yesterday morning. Those who didn't have enough space to bask in the sun slowly moved down to the beach and basked on the beach.

There were people drying them there early in the morning. I don't know if they worked all night or got up early to work.

"Are these people asleep or not?"

The old lady also came out and took a look, "Someone was doing it there when I got up, I don't know."

"Really hard work."

At this time, Chen Shi had arrived at the gate of his courtyard while munching sweet potatoes.

He asked Chen Shi to stay yesterday and went fishing with him this morning. The workshop transferred a person to follow his father out to sea.

"It's so early and you haven't eaten yet? How can you eat sweet potatoes? Come in and have a bowl of porridge to fill your stomach."

"It's too late...to cool down, so just...eat sweet potatoes."

"Could it be that it was cooked for the pigs and you just took it?"

"It's not... I put it on... last night. I heated it up and it was hot."

Seeing the honest and honest look on his face, Ye Yaodong shook his head and put him in to eat a bowl of porridge before taking him out to sea.

It was already the end of April and almost May, and the temperature had risen, but he still had to wear a thin cotton-padded jacket when going to sea.

When they pushed the cart outside the pier and listened to others, they found out that the people drying kelp had taken turns to do it all night.

The tide was low last night, so they happened to collect kelp to sell to him and took a rest.

When the tide comes in at night, they all get up all night to collect vegetables and dry them. If the fresh kelp is not dried in time, it will easily spoil, so they are still drying it even after dawn.

Moreover, they also have to race against time to work on sunny days. Sunshine is precious to everyone, and it rains from time to time during this season.

In addition, he needs a boat this morning, so the boat must be freed up for him.

When he arrived at the dock, the boat was already anchored on the shore, and he didn't know whether the harvesting at the breeding base had been completed or not.

After replenishing the oil, he sailed out directly, curiously driving to the breeding base first.

At first glance, as expected, the sea area was already bare. Everyone had been busy for several days and had harvested all the kelp overnight.

"It's pretty fast too."

"Haha, can you make money..."

"Yes, everyone really needs something that can make money stably."

Chen Shi nodded.

The wind was strong on the sea, so Ye Yaodong stopped talking after a few words. He had to speak with his back to the wind, otherwise his mouth would be filled with wind.

After driving for nearly an hour, he arrived at a familiar sea area. When he was still approaching his destination, he saw two fishing boats. He took a closer look and found that they belonged to little Azheng.

Unexpectedly, they are now trawling the surrounding area.

The fishing boats were all working, so he didn't bother them. He just waved the flag as he drove past them, taking it as a greeting.

After finding a good spot near the reef, he and Chen Shi put down longline fishing basket after basket.

Then I threw the remaining ground pots and shrimp pots around the reef around the reef.

The tide was high at this time and the reef was not exposed to the sea, but he was familiar with this location and it was impossible for him to run aground on the rocks.

After throwing down the last buoy, he clapped his hands and said, "Stop it and go back."

"What...when will you come...collect it?"

"Let's do it tomorrow morning. I'm not free today. I have to take kelp to the city later, and there are a lot of things I have to do in the city."

"well."

Before Ye Yaodong went back, he went for a walk around the nearby islands. Looking at the densely packed barnacles and spat on the rocks, he felt that he would have to bring two people to dig them out in two days.

It would be a pity not to dig it up, since it will grow again anyway. This is a renewable resource.

After reading it, he immediately returned.

After a trip to the sea, I did some longline fishing and ground traps, and it wasn’t even 9 o’clock when I got back.

He first went to the workshop and asked someone to move the kelp collected yesterday to the tractor. He went home first and changed into his work clothes.

If it was just a normal delivery to the market, it wouldn't matter if he wore work clothes, but he had to go to the Ocean Bureau and the Fisheries Association office to file an application report, so he had to dress decently.

A large bundle of kelp wrapped in nylon weighed at least 200 kilograms, and it took several people to lift it out and put it on the tractor.

The load-bearing capacity of the tractor is about five or six tons. It is fixed high with ropes and the goods collected yesterday can be pulled away in one truck, so it will not be a problem.

Just when the last bag was about to be carried, Ye Yaodong asked someone to open the bag and push the scale over.

"Yesterday, I weighed 620 kilograms more and weighed 520 kilograms. I didn't put them together for packaging."

Boss Zhou happens to want 5 tons first, and he will send 100 kilograms to his godfather. He can take out the remaining 520 kilograms and hang them on the car for advertising, and then sell them in the market.

After weighing out 520 kilograms, the last bag was carried onto the car.

He asked people to tie up the scattered 520 kilograms of kelp with ropes, distribute them evenly on the top, and cover the nylon bag.

Then someone used ropes to tie up the high pile of goods to prevent them from falling due to bumps along the way.

"Brother Dong, why do you have to go to such trouble to spread the kelp on top? Wouldn't it be more convenient to put it in a bag and take it away together? It also saves you having to take down the scattered items when unloading." Pei Dongqing asked in confusion.

road.

"You don't understand this, don't you? If I don't take out the kelp and spread it on the top, and hang it all over the car, will others know that the dark stuff in my bag is kelp?"

"Oh, do you want to go out of your way to show it to others?"

"Of course, I have to go around the main street a few times to let everyone know that my cart is full of kelp, and then I will take it to the market gate and sell these hundreds of kilograms in pieces. This is not appropriate.

Propaganda?”

Waiting until tomorrow to pull a cart and place it in front of the store will attract more people.

Pei Dongqing's eyes were filled with stars and she looked at him with admiration, "You are so smart. Then we won't have to worry about selling the kelp. A few kilograms of scattered kelp will be sold very quickly, and it can also attract wholesalers."

"Yes, smart."

"And the one that has been disassembled is easier to weigh. You can use the remaining 5 tons for delivery, and the weighing will be faster."

"Well, work hard and let's go."

Ye Yaodong started the tractor with the crank handle, then threw the handle under the seat, sat on it, and quickly turned around and left.

He had already planned it well, and he did the same thing when he went to the city.

The tractor was driving on the streets of the busy city. It could not go very fast and could only move slowly. However, when the people saw that he had a whole truck of kelp, they came to the front of the truck and asked him at a trot whether he could sell this truck of kelp.

.

Not just one or two, they were traveling all the way. As soon as the tractor slowed down, a large number of people came up to ask.

Ye Yaodong always said that this cart of goods has been ordered and there will be more tomorrow. He will take another cart to the aquatic product wholesale market at noon tomorrow and ask them to come over then.

He also said that 1 pound is 2.5 cents, and one pound can be soaked in about five or six pounds.

He thought that if he came back tomorrow, he could use a loudspeaker and bring someone other than Chen Shi with him to shout and attract people while driving, which would be more effective.

Driving all the way, the city slowly cleared out of the traffic jam, and the tractor became able to speed up a little, but not much faster, with so much cargo.

A truckload of kelp was waiting for him at the door of the wholesale market. The salesmen and merchants around him were all attracted by the truckload of goods. They all gathered around and asked him if he had brought it here to sell it.

Here, a whole truckload of goods is either brought here for sale or purchased from here. It is obvious that there are no other stalls in the market that sell large quantities of kelp.

"Only a few hundred kilograms are for sale, and the rest have been reserved. One kilogram is 25 cents, and more than 20 kilograms is 20 cents. No bargaining."

"One pound is soaked in five or six pounds. Actually, it only costs three or four cents per pound. It's cheap."

"Only 500 catties, only 500 catties, sold out."

Ye Yaodong shouted while asking someone to climb into the car to untie the rope.

Father Lin also saw the movement at the door and hurried out, then hurried in to get the scale.

"Give me 20 pounds!"

"I also want 20 pounds..."

"Have you ever come together to buy 20 pounds?"

"I, I, I...can I fight for 5 pounds?"

"I will also fight for 5 pounds..."

Ye Yaodong looked at them shouting and looking for someone to fight for the order in the crowd, and thought to himself, he didn't have the chops here.

There are a lot of people gathering here, and Chinese people like to hang out wherever they like. The more people and the crowds, the more attractive it is.

However, in less than an hour, all the 520 kilograms of goods were sold out. If it hadn't been a waste of time to weigh the goods and collect money, they would have been gone long ago.

There are still some people who haven't bought anything yet and are still asking. They are all ordering together. Ye Yaodong asked them to come over at this time tomorrow.
