Chapter 385 Someone is coming from the county
Strange things always spread very fast. When Ye Yaodong came back in the evening, he heard that the surrounding villages had spread the word, saying that someone in Baisha Village had fished a big tripod from the sea and dedicated it to Mazu.
Curious people in the village went to the Mazu Temple to see what the tripod looked like. They all praised Ye Yaodong for being enlightened and not greedy for money.
"I used to think that he was quite out of tune, and no family in the village dared to marry a daughter to him. I didn't expect that he would immediately shake up in the past two years."
"Yeah, I used to be inconspicuous, but now I look at it, although it is still joking and a little sloppy, but it has become quite reliable."
"It's reliable, it can make money!"
"Isn't it? How long has it been since the small boat changed to a big one, and from time to time they caught big goods again. Seeing their family's life flourishing..."
"Yes, I also gave birth to a daughter, adding more people to the family..."
"To attract wealth and treasure, he took all the imports..."
"I don't know what kind of **** luck..."
"At that time, his mother would talk to him everywhere, worrying that he would not be able to marry a wife. If I knew it, I would have married the daughter of the family. Now I can enjoy the blessings and help the family..."
"Isn't it beautiful? Your daughter's face is full of pockmarks, and she is short. Why is A Dong not in tune? Anyway, she has a good face..."
"What's wrong with the pockmarked face? Is it growing on you? Marry a man, marry a man, dress and eat, embroidered pillows that can't make money, what's the use of being good-looking?"
"Cut~ useless? Then you still regret it here?"
A group of women started arguing while chatting in the temple, and it was only when the women next to them smoothed things over that it stopped.
Ye Yaodong only knows that the word spreads fast, but he doesn't know the episode. He goes fishing every day as usual, and he doesn't know when the official people will come to his door. It's not that he is eager to donate.
Will someone come without knowing it? What if the news doesn’t reach the county, or people in their local county don’t take it seriously?
It just happened to be raining for so long, and these two days were sunny, so of course we went to sea.
This matter was circulated lively and strangely in the village for a day or two, and then it became a bit weaker. After other parents’ short-sighted new things happened, it was directly covered up, but occasionally someone mentioned it in passing.
Four or five days passed, and the village remained calm. Ye Yaodong thought that the tripod was just like that.
Unexpectedly, when he left it behind, the county cultural center and the county government suddenly came to the door on this day, and the village committee accompanied them to the door.
Ye Yaodong came back from the sea, and the villagers who had just landed at the pier called him to go home excitedly, saying that some important people in the county came to him, and a lot of people were sitting in front of his house waiting for him to come back.
"Huh? They all sit in front of my house? Who? Why are you here? How many people?"
I thought it would never come, but I didn't expect it to come.
"6789, you can go back and look at it yourself. We don't know the bunch of Chinese tunic suits."
Six seven eight nine? Is this range a bit big?
Ye Yaodong went to push the scooter unhurriedly, ready to push it to the shore, and pick up the goods later, he said as he walked, "When did you come? Why did you come? I didn't tell you earlier, the sun has already set. "
The middle-aged woman on the side spoke up and said: "I came here this morning, it seems that I came here for the tripod you fished a few days ago, and I went to the Mazu Temple in the morning, and I stayed there for a long time. What cultural relics, what antiques?" , How rare, it belongs to the state, and I told our village committee a lot of nonsense, and the big guys couldn't understand it."
"Yes, the tripod I told them is so rare, I feel that the visitor is not kind, as if they want to take away the tripod you donated to the Mazu Temple."
"Yes, it means to take the tripod away. It can't just be taken away by others. It's something from our temple. It has been donated to Mazu. It's Mazu's. How can I take it away with them?" .”
"That is, you have to tell them when you go back, and tell them to find another one elsewhere."
"Yeah, let them find another one somewhere else."
A bunch of women and the villagers who didn't go to sea were all chattering there.
Ye Yaodong couldn't laugh or cry, "Then are they still here? The sun has already set."
"It seems that you haven't left, but you are still there. Knowing that you are going to sea, the village committee took you around today, and in the afternoon, you are sitting at your door waiting for you."
"My ostentation is so big? A bunch of big shots are sitting at my house waiting for me?"
Thinking about him, he is still a little flattered. I didn't expect him to have this kind of treatment, which ordinary people can't enjoy.
"Yes, yes, yes, it looks very stylish, you should go back quickly, don't dawdle here."
"Okay, I'll push the trolley there first, and if you have free time, please help my father, otherwise I will leave, and he will have no one to help, so don't let the goods be stolen."
"No problem, there are so many people here, everyone is watching for you, you go quickly."
Ye Yaodong handed over the goods to his father to sell, asked the villagers for help, and hurried back. He came back early today, and the sun didn't set long after landing. The sky was still bright, and it was dark in summer. late.
He trotted with the hat in his hand, followed by a few good deeds, and planned to follow the villagers who went to watch the fun together.
When he was about to walk to the front of the house, he saw a group of people standing up from a distance, and they didn't know what they were talking about. They murmured a few words and walked out while talking. beside.
"Ah! Ah Dong is back!"
"came back?"
"Finally home?"
"I came back so late, I plan to leave."
Secretary Chen apologized and said with a smile: "It's still early to come back at this time today. A few days ago, the fishermen in our village did not come to the shore until dark. Said to wait and see."
He continued to help Ye Yaodong say good things, "Ah Dong didn't know that there would be a guest today, and no one informed him in advance, so he stayed at home and waited, otherwise the leaders wouldn't have been waiting for so long..."
An old man with graying hair said with a smile: "Hehehe~ It's good to be back, anyway, I didn't miss it, let's walk around... It just so happened that the person came back, so let's go in and sit for a while..."
"I've been waiting all day for someone, and I can't just leave like this. Then go in and sit down for a while, and tell him what needs to be said, and tell him not to go to sea at night. Let's come back tomorrow and talk about it in detail."
"Then go in, you can't come in vain, everyone is back..."
"Yes, it doesn't count for a while."
"Go in and talk... Go in and say... It doesn't get dark so fast..."
When the leaders in Chinese tunic suits saw Ye Yaodong, they walked back after saying what they said, without giving Ye Yaodong a chance to ask questions. Secretary Chen waved to him and told him to follow quickly.
Each of them actually didn’t take his fishermen seriously. Fortunately, he didn’t send them to the door eagerly.
The good-natured villagers and neighbors also followed. Some well-informed people also ran this way when they heard the news that Ye Yaodong was back.
Not long after, a group of people stood crowded together at their door, all of them stretched their necks and looked into the house.
Ye Yaodong also looked at the so-called big men in the houses of the villagers. Not to mention, two of them looked familiar, and they had appeared in the review of ten thousand households before.
It is good to be young and have a strong memory.
After entering the room, he stood beside Secretary Chen without speaking, intending to wait for these people to speak.
The gray-haired old man looked at him and said with a smile: "I am Li Deyao, director of the County Cultural Center, and you are Comrade Ye Yaodong?"
"I am."
"That's right. Two days ago, I heard that you caught a large bronze tripod. Your village chief went to a meeting in the county to confirm this, so today we will come and have a look."
"Not only two days ago, but also five or six days ago."
A few days ago, he heard that someone went into the water at the place where he scooped up bronze wares, intending to see if there were any under there. After success, a pressure of every ten meters is not a joke.
Ordinary people can dive less than 10 meters without any tools, and those with a slightly weaker physique can only dive to about 5 meters. Professionals can dive to about 30 meters, and of course there are even more powerful ones.
"Yes, we knew it was five or six days ago, and it was only two or three days ago that we heard about it and confirmed it, so no, I came to the door today, but unfortunately, I didn't inform you in advance, so I waited for the whole time God, I almost returned without success, but fortunately you came back in time."
The old man spoke very politely, and he had a smiling face. Ye Yaodong felt comfortable listening, with a smile on his face, "Yeah, I didn't know beforehand. If I knew, I'd wait at home, and the leaders of the province will do it." Wait all day."
"It's okay, we came here suddenly. It's a bit late today, so I'll just ask straight to the point. When you fished it up, was there only that big cauldron, and was there anything else that was dragged up together?"
The cultural relic protection law was implemented in 1982. With the bronze tripod in front of him, he thought that even if the wine glass was kept, it would be a hot potato. , sell well.
Regardless of whether the big tripod could be taken away from the Matsu Temple with the consent of the villagers, he contributed the wine cup anyway, so he should be able to get a commendation honor.
Just got a wave of popular voice from the villagers, and the honor can't be left behind.
Ye Yaodong nodded and admitted: "Yes, there is a bronze wine cup that was dragged up with the tripod. Wait a minute, I will go into the room and get it for you."
