Chapter 529: Let me say this first

Old Ye said, "Okay, my son is right. You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry."

"We are waiting for you."

"Wife, when the time comes, I'll take you out to sea in a fishing boat over fifty meters long."

Ms. Liu rolled her eyes.

Ye Qing smiled and said, "Dad, you don't have to wait."

"When the time comes, you will be responsible for connecting with the shipyard."

Old Ye was overjoyed.

Zhang Jun reminded them, "Mom and Dad, when you get home, there will probably be a lot of people looking for you."

"It's like this. There are many people on the island who want to work on Ah Qing's fishing boat."

"When someone first approached me, I said I was just his brother-in-law. After all, he was from another family and I had no say. Alan had been taking care of Xiao Yu'er at home and had no business going out to sea for fishing."

"Gradually, no one came to look for Alan and me."

"Qingzai is a young man who doesn't care about anyone's face."

"You have many friends on the island, and you are well connected. If someone comes to you, it would be difficult for you to refuse."

When Old Ye and Ms. Liu heard this, their expressions became a little serious.

This is indeed something to consider.

Now everyone knows that Ye Qing is lucky and he can always return with a full load every time he goes out to sea. To put it more exaggeratedly, he is actually going to the sea to withdraw money.

Who wouldn’t be jealous?

Who doesn’t want to get involved?

Besides, Ye Qing’s salary is high, so the base salary doesn’t matter. The main thing is the 1% commission.

On other fishing boats, a 1% commission is like chicken ribs.

It's tasteless to eat, but it's a pity to throw it away.

Fishing boats near the coast mainly rely on fixed wages. The boatmen are paid according to the weather, while the boat owners rely on the weather for their livelihood!

But on Ye Qing's fishing boat, that is a shortcut to getting rich.

Youngsters like Ye Qing don't care much about certain interactions, and they can refuse anyone who comes to them without giving them any face.

But Mr. Ye and Ms. Liu can't do that.

They have lived on the island for decades. It's either you help me or I help you. Many favors cannot be refused.

People have helped you before.

Now I ask you to do a favor and help my son find a job on the ship. Can you just refuse?

That is not inhumane, but ungrateful.

If this gets out, he will be drowned in spit and his spine will be broken.

Ms. Liu asked, "If it's just an ordinary relationship, it's fine. But if he's helped me and Old Ye, I'm afraid it would be hard to refuse him outright."

"If Ah Qing doesn't want anyone, we have to find a way."

Old Ye shook his head; "What can I do?"

"Either agree or refuse."

"No matter what, I can't make things difficult for my son."

At worst, I can just sacrifice my reputation, close the door, and not care what those people say.

Ye Qing said, "Mom and Dad, don't worry."

"We're going to buy an ocean fishing boat, so we're definitely going to need some manpower."

"We won't be able to get an ocean fishing boat in the short term, but we can prepare for the manpower in advance."

"If someone comes to you, you don't have to refuse."

"But we have to explain the situation clearly, and state the conditions and requirements. As long as they meet the requirements and are willing to wait, then there's absolutely no problem with them staying."

Zhang Jun interrupted, "Also, if someone comes to borrow money, just say you bought an ocean fishing boat and not only is your family broke, but you also owe a lot of money on the loan."

Ye Qing said: "Brother-in-law is right to remind you."

Old Ye and Ms. Liu suddenly realized: "Son, you said you wanted to buy an ocean fishing boat. Could it be that you have already thought about this?"

Ye Qing shook his head.

This is not his modesty. If his brother-in-law Zhang Jun had not mentioned this, he would not have thought of this trouble. Then he changed his mind and thought that buying an ocean fishing boat would be a good solution to this problem.

All I can say is that an unexpected outcome can lead to a great success.

Buying an ocean fishing boat can solve many problems.

But the prerequisite is that you have to have money.

No wonder people say that money is not everything, but without money, nothing can be done.

Zhang Jun also smiled and said, "An ocean fishing boat needs at least ten people to operate it. Mom and Dad, you can call back the boatmen who worked with you for many years."

Old Ye and the other man nodded.

yes.

Before Lao Ye fell ill, he had just bought the fishing boat that our family owns. He also had several helpers at home. Although they were not from Longwei Island, they had all been working there for many years. Although they didn't know each other well, they were all his family.

Old Ye said: "Yes, our helpers are hardworking and honest."

"After I became ill, they had to find their own way to survive."

"Now that I'm well again, I must get them all back."

Ms. Liu also nodded: "Yes, after Old Ye was hospitalized, they all transferred money to me, and I wrote down every penny."

As for the money, of course I paid it back early.

But it's not so easy to repay this favor.

Everyone talked a lot about this topic.

Old Ye also said that he was lucky enough to survive this time and had no sequelae. When he returned home, he wanted to hold a banquet at home.

First, it was to celebrate his safe return home, and second, it was to treat the villagers to a drink and thank them for their financial and physical support after the accident.

Ye Qing naturally supported it and felt it was necessary.

This is a happy event, so there is no problem in holding a banquet to celebrate.

He didn't bring it up because he was worried that his father, who had just been discharged from the hospital, would find it too noisy. Since his father brought it up, he naturally didn't say anything.

Before getting out of the car, Lao Ye called one of the helpers and invited him to have a drink. He also chatted about work and tried to find out if he was willing to come back.

After hanging up the phone, Old Ye asked, "Son, I haven't asked you yet, what is the salary of this boatman?"

Ye Qing said: "Old rules, 1% commission."

"In fact, there is a guaranteed base salary of 1,000 yuan for going overseas, but at the moment, it seems that base salary is just a formality. I haven't paid it for a long time."

It’s not that he wanted to lose the money on purpose, but the income from each trip to sea was too high, so no one cared about the thousand dollars.

It is no exaggeration to say that he is used to rounding up the money to give out every time, and the extra money is considered a bonus. In fact, the small change he makes up is higher than the guaranteed basic salary.

He thought for a moment and said, "This ocean fishing boat is out for ten days or half a month at a time, so we can't pay it according to this basic salary."

"It's just a guaranteed salary of 8,000 yuan a month."

"What do you think?"

Compared with Li Shi, Cai Ya is naturally closer. When doing things in one's own family, closeness and distance still have to be considered.

It is more reasonable to pay the people on Lao Ye's side on a monthly basis. In case someone complains, it can also save some trouble.

Old Ye said, "Your guaranteed salary is much higher than what Ah Liu is currently earning. Isn't it a bit too much?"

Ye Qing smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if the salary is higher. As long as the work is done well, the base salary is nothing."

As I said, basic salary is just a formality.

The real big part is still commission.

Zhang Jun said, "Mom and Dad, Ah Qing gave the money freely, but you have to be careful and not let anyone else take advantage of it."

Ye Qing nodded and said, "If you don't do well, I won't be polite when I tell you to get out."

Old Ye and Ms. Liu nodded.

Although they are elders, they do not take advantage of their seniority and think that there is no need to listen to what young people say. If what they say makes sense, they will still listen to it and adopt it.
