Chapter 1369 Arrangement
The newly built house has no doors or windows, but it doesn’t matter in the summer as it is just open for ventilation and coolness.
Anyway, as long as there is an iron door at the gate, it will be fine.
There was no soundproofing at all. Half of the people were lying in the corridor, and some of them were snoring, which was so loud that it was deafening.
Ye Yaodong regretted that he should have gone to bed earlier so that he wouldn't have heard the snoring.
The next morning, as soon as it was light and there was no light blocking the view, some people got up. There were various noises and voices scattered around, so everyone got up one after another.
"We have ready-made red bricks. We can just pile them up and put a big pot in it and cook right away..."
"Come on, come on, help me lift it..."
"Go get some straw to start the fire..."
"The piece of land that Adong bought is really not small, but he only built such a small house..."
"Do you know how much money this cost? It costs two to three thousand yuan to build a building at home. Look at how many buildings there are in this row..."
"Oh my god, this will cost tens of thousands..."
"Tsk tsk tsk, Ah Dong is getting richer and richer. He buys houses and land wherever he goes. He just spent tens of thousands of dollars here..."
"Too amazing, so awesome..."
When we got up early in the morning, there was nothing much to do. At most, we cooked some food and gathered together to look around and chat.
It was only five or six o'clock, and the workers had not yet come to work, and there were only three or four hundred of them.
Ye Yaodong stretched and saw that the corridor was full of people. There was a row of large pots on the open space at the door. It looked exactly like a construction site.
"Good morning. This house won't do without doors and windows. We need to call a carpenter to build doors and windows."
"Yeah, it's blindingly bright, and we can't sleep. It's okay in the house, as there's a wall to block the view..."
"Just cover your head with a piece of clothing when you sleep at night."
"This shows that you are not tired enough..."
Ye Yaodong said, "When the foreman comes, ask him to ask the carpenters to come and make the doors and windows first."
The rice soup in the pot was bubbling, and he stepped forward and stirred it with a spatula.
Someone nearby dragged a sack of shredded sweet potatoes over and threw a handful of them into the big pots in front of him.
He had a lot of workers, so naturally he had to bring a few more large iron pots.
Father Ye said, "The land here is too empty. If you have nothing to do today, turn the land over and pick out the big rocks. Then go over there and fetch some soil. At least you can grow some vegetables for the next few months."
"Row."
Ye Yaodong said, "I'll ask the foreman to call someone to dig a well later... You guys can decide whether to go out and find a house to move to today. After all, this place isn't finished yet. It's okay if you don't want to move. Just live here for now. It's fine as long as it can keep out the rain."
"It's okay. We can sleep anywhere. As long as we have a place to lie down..."
"Yes, if we move to another place, there will still be seven or eight people sleeping on the floor in one room, which is not necessarily that good. At least it is safer and more reassuring for us to live here."
"Yes, I am worried about the safety of renting a car. I have to keep one eye open when sleeping to listen for any noises."
"Just live here. It's almost finished anyway. With so many people, it should only take a week or so at most. If everyone lends a hand, it should be done in a few days."
Ye Yaodong nodded after hearing what they said, "Okay, then you guys decide. Since it's not finished yet, we can all live here, and I'm sure we won't charge you rent."
"Hahaha, then I'll give it to you after the work is finished."
"We'll talk about it after it's finished."
When the porridge was cooked, everyone held a bowl and sat under the corridor to eat. At that time, more than a dozen people came in from the gate.
Those people stared at them in amazement, all terrified.
Each of them held a bowl of rice and drank porridge while looking at them. Everyone was somewhat indifferent and just ate by themselves because they knew that these people came here to build a house.
The people at the door pointed at them but didn't come in. Ye Yaodong thought they might have misunderstood, so he asked Chen Zhihua, who was on duty last night, to go and explain.
A dozen workers finally breathed a sigh of relief and walked in upstairs, carefully avoiding this group of people and doing their job.
"Brother Dong, they said they were scared to death just now and they didn't dare to come in."
“I thought it was occupied by migrant workers from somewhere.”
"Migrant workers? Haha, we are fishermen. They said they thought it was a bunch of homeless people who occupied our land. We don't know what to do."
"Ah."
"When they knew it was the boss who brought people here, they were relieved, but they were also a little panicked. They didn't know there were hundreds of us coming at once, so they were a little afraid to come in. I also comforted them with a few words, telling them to just work and that nothing would happen to them."
Ye Yaodong hummed again.
Three or four hundred strong men were sitting under the eaves with their bare chests, all looking at the door. It was normal that the dozen or so local workers were too timid to come in.
A spit from anyone would be enough to drown them.
This is strength in numbers.
"The foreman hasn't come yet?"
"Yes, the foreman won't be here until later."
"Then wait until you get here and let me see their attendance records later. The work is almost finished and we need to pay them."
"Okay, I'll get it right now."
"Don't worry, let's eat first."
After eating the porridge, the three or four hundred people sat under the eaves as usual. After they had rested enough, they cleaned up the things that needed to be cleaned up and tended the land.
It's a good time to work while the sun is just coming out and it's not too hot.
Although this is Ye Yaodong's land, it has nothing to do with others.
But don't forget that he has dozens of workers here, plus 17 ship captains who have rented his ships, and these ship captains have another group of workers under them.
Then his friends, his brothers, neighbors, his father's friends...
No one can just sit there and watch him lead people to work without helping in any way.
The current place of residence was still provided by him.
When the foreman came over and saw so many of them, he was shocked and panicked.
The worker next to him reminded Ye Yaodong, and then Ye Yaodong saw the foreman at the door and two unfamiliar people standing beside him.
He walked over and said hello, and the foreman breathed a sigh of relief.
"It turns out it's you, Boss Ye. I was shocked. I was wondering where all these people came from."
"I brought the workers up here yesterday. Judging from the progress, it should be almost done."
"Almost done. These two are carpenters. We'll put up the beams, lay the tiles, and then install the doors and windows and it will basically be done."
"Okay, just do your job, don't worry about us, and don't be afraid. They will go out to sea tonight or tomorrow, and there won't be so many people here. Just come back and rest at night."
"That's good. We were all panicked when we saw so many people just now. Boss Ye, you have so many people on your side? You are amazing. No wonder you bought such a large piece of land to build a house and settle the workers."
The foreman looked at him with a hint of respect, as he had been very casual before.
"Not entirely. Just keep busy. If you need any materials, tell me. Calculate the quantity and I'll go buy them."
"Okay, okay..."
Ye Yaodong greeted them and talked about his needs and how to speed up the process. Only then did they feel relieved and continued to do what they were doing.
He also handed over the work at the construction site to his father, and he had to go to the tile factory to buy tiles and other wood.
I don’t know if I can get these materials today.
He also had to take some time to buy some things and visit Jin Laixi at the Chamber of Commerce to thank him. He really did come to take a look.
I also have to go to the processing plant to find the layman and see if he is at home. If he is not at home, he has to leave a message saying that he is coming up.
Then he would have to go to the shipyard to check on the progress of the fishing boat. If there was not enough time, he would have to wait until tomorrow.
When he first came up, he had a lot of things to do and was very busy.
Fortunately, other people also needed to settle down, and by the way, I wanted to learn about the current situation at the dock and the price of fish.
Today, he was not the only one running around outside. Other ship captains were also walking around the dock to understand the situation.
Only the workers helped with the work at the construction site and followed his father's instructions.
Ye Yaodong was out buying materials the whole day, and by the afternoon, his purchases were delivered in truckloads.
The others took a walk outside today and got to know the latest situation. They spent the afternoon chatting there and discussing going out to sea at night.
When you go out, the cost is very high. Every boat needs to hire people, and each person costs four or five dollars a day.
It is impossible for the ship captains to leave the workers here to work for Ye Yaodong without going out to sea. At most, they can take a day off today and let the workers help out.
When they saw Ye Yaodong coming back, everyone greeted him and talked to him.
"Okay, then you can arrange to go out to sea. The freshwater boats will normally go out to collect the goods every other day. They won't be too far from here. I can also use the VHF on the shore."
"Okay, it would be best if you can go out and collect the goods when you are free."
"I'm still free for this. The materials have been arranged. I'll be busy with other things tomorrow, and I'll definitely be able to go out and receive the goods the day after tomorrow."
After saying that, he looked at his father again.
"Dad, I'd better let you sail the Ocean No. 1 out to trawle. The fishing grounds here are rich in resources, so you don't need to go too far. I think the fish collection ship can go farther to collect the goods, so we can collect some of the goods from your ship as well."
"That's fine. You can take as much as you can. I'll come back to sell some to you when the boat is full. Since we're close, the fuel consumption will be lower. It's also worthwhile to stay for 10 days or half a month and then come back to sell the goods."
"Yeah, that's what I thought. It just so happens that I haven't finished my work on shore yet, so I'll let you go out for the time being. When I'm almost done with my work, we can take turns."
At this point, Ye Yaodong thought for a moment and said, "By the way, Dad, please take a look at who on the ship is more experienced and mature and suitable to take over the job of captain."
"Anyway, you come back every ten days or half a month. During this time, you can train someone to take over your work. Then you can rest and don't have to stay at sea all the time."
Father Ye smiled and said, "Oh, are you willing to let me rest?"
