Chapter 75 The Boatman Arrives
In Li Sanhe's eyes.
Ye Qing is the savior of their entire family.
He never thought that Ye Qing would help him pay off the debt!
to be honest.
He didn't know how to repay Ye Qing. When would he be able to pay back the more than 30,000 yuan? He owed Ye Qing a huge favor.
He said nervously, "Qingzi, let's not talk about anything else for now. I'll write you an IOU."
"It may take my father and I several years to pay back this money."
Ye Qing smiled and said, "That's not going to work. I can only give you one year at most."
Li Sanhe was dumbfounded.
This... In this year, they can't even earn more than 30,000 yuan.
He is a disabled person and is supported by the state.
My old mother is bedridden, and I borrowed money this time for her medical treatment. Her illness has not been cured yet, and my family was almost broken up because of Big Gold Teeth.
Li Shi was foolish and tried every way to make money in the village, but none of them lasted long.
Not to mention one year, even if they go without food or drink for two years, they may not be able to save 30,000 yuan.
But now.
He could only nod and say, "Okay, okay, then write the IOU."
If it weren't for Ye Qing, he and Li Shi would have been badly beaten by A Biao, and Li Shi would have had to sell himself to Da Jin Ya. Now that Ye Qing gave them a year, he was already very grateful.
Kangzi looked at Ye Qing with a strange expression.
Zhang Jun also didn't understand why Ye Qing said that.
Ye Qing is not short of tens of thousands of dollars now, so why would he say that he would only give him one year at most?
Only Ye Lan was stunned for a moment before returning to normal. Although she didn't know what Ye Qing was going to do, she knew that Ye Qing would not do anything excessive.
Since he said that, there must be a reason.
Li Shi nodded and said, "Okay, one year at a time."
“I will definitely find a job!”
"Qingzai, don't worry, I will pay you back!"
This honest child was very slow in thinking. In his eyes, Ye Qing had already done him a great favor and was able to pay him back in a year. He was just grateful and had no other thoughts at all.
Compared to the reactions of others, Ye Qing was more and more satisfied with Li Shi. He smiled and said, "I'll offer you a job. What are you willing to do with me?"
"Food and lodging provided."
"As long as you go out to sea, you can get a guaranteed one thousand a day."
"You can get extra commission for every catch you process."
Li Shi nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay."
"Qingzai, I'm willing to follow you."
"I've loved playing with you since I was little, and you never play tricks on me."
Although he is stupid, he knows right from wrong and who is good and who is bad. He can see clearly.
Ye Qing showed a nostalgic expression.
Speaking of which.
When they were young, they did play together often. Later, as he and Kangzi grew up, especially after they went to Haibin City to attend high school, they had little free time in the village, so they no longer played with Li Shi.
He raised his hand.
When we used to go fishing together, every time we came back with a full load, we would make this gesture.
Li Shi also remembers it.
He was so excited that he quickly raised his hand and the two of them clapped their hands.
Kangzi came over and said, "Take me with you."
Ye Qing ignored the conspicuous bag, turned to look at Li Sanhe, and asked, "Uncle Sanhe, do you think it's okay?"
Li Sanhe was dazed.
He was a little overwhelmed. Ye Qing helped him to fight off A Biao, repaid the loan, and arranged a job for Li Shi. This... this favor was too great.
Can't pay it back.
There is no way to pay it back.
He came back to his senses, nodded hurriedly, and shouted: "Okay, okay, it's great."
"Just give me the salary, forget about the commission."
"I really don't know what to say. I feel like nothing I say is enough."
"I...I should kneel down for you."
He has always complained that God is unfair, asking why he has brought so much suffering upon him and his son.
But now.
He was only grateful, grateful to God and grateful to Ye Qing.
Seeing that Li Sanhe was really struggling to get out of the wheelchair, Ye Qing hurried forward to stop him.
This is unbearable.
He said before that he had selfish motives.
To put it bluntly, Li Shi is an honest person and not very smart, but in his eyes, this is an advantage. He can let Li Shi work on the ship without worrying about backstabbing.
Li Shi nodded and shouted, "Yes, I don't want any commission."
"Qingzai, I just want the salary."
Ye Qing shook his head. Salary is salary, commission is commission. Since he is a boatman, he should be treated the same as Kangzai. He cannot be treated differently because of this incident.
But Li Shi was stubborn and honest. No one could change what he had made up his mind. The more he talked, the more anxious he became. Seeing this, Ye Qing did not insist any more.
Li Sanhe asked curiously, "Qingzi, you said you had something to say, what is it?"
Ye Qing said: "Let Li Shi come to work on my ship, it's one."
"Another thing is that I want to buy this homestead to build a new house."
When Li Sanhe heard this, he immediately shouted, "Oh, what are you still buying? You are my family's savior, this homestead is a gift to you."
"I'll go to the village chief tomorrow to handle the formalities."
Ye Qing shook his head.
In this case, wouldn't he be taking advantage?
To put it bluntly, the 30,000 yuan was temporarily lent to Li San and the father and son, and Li Shi would have to pay it back when he got a salary as a boatman.
He said, "Uncle Sanhe, let's put things in perspective."
"I'll lend you money to pay off your debt."
"Now, I also need money to buy a homestead."
Kangzi has inquired around and learned that a residential plot of about 500 square meters is worth about 10,000 yuan. This price is actually inflated because Longwei Island has a large land area and a small population.
Every household has a homestead, and there are no outsiders coming in, so who would have the money to buy a homestead?
If it weren't for Big Gold Teeth causing trouble, no one would even think about buying or selling residential land.
Ye Qing added Li Sanhe's WeChat and immediately transferred 10,000 yuan to him, saying, "When I return from the sea, we'll go find the village chief to handle the formalities."
Li Sanhe looked at the 10,000 yuan in WeChat and wiped his tears excitedly. He thanked Ye Qing profusely. Ye Qing's ears were almost callused from listening to him, so he quickly asked Li Shi to push Li Sanhe away.
Li Shi nodded.
Li Sanhe refused to leave. He felt it would be too unfair to leave like this.
Li Shi said, "Qingzi told me to push you away, so I listened to him."
Li Sanhe shouted, "I'm your father."
Li Shi said, "In front of Qingzi, Dad, you have to stand aside."
Li Sanhe: "..."
After the father and son walked away, Ye Qing turned around, and Ye Lan, Zhang Jun, Kangzi, and even Zhang Xiaoyu all gave him a thumbs up.
