214. Buy Farewell Island
Thank you for your enthusiastic monthly votes in the past two days, and many friends have given rewards. The bullet shell is here to thank you! ****
The Daqin Fishery has formed a complete food chain, which is something that Qin Shiou is proud of, because the problem of the collapse of the Newfoundland fishery is ultimately due to the collapse of the food chain, which has caused cod to survive on a large scale.
Seaweed provides food for plankton, which feeds countless Arctic shrimps, which are food for small fish species such as herring and mackerel. The cod preys on herring and mackerel. This main biological chain can be maintained, so the fishing ground can operate healthily.
After the harvest number was driven back, Qin Shiou first filled the diesel and walked around the fishing ground, but he did not cast a net and had not found a customer. Besides, the cod has only been raised for two quarters and is not worth fishing, and it will take at least two years.
The deck boat has become the new darling. This boat is fast and consumes less fuel, so it is most convenient to drive it out to sea. Qin Shiou named it the "Aurbach".
Auerbach personally painted the deck boat with paint, and Qin Shiou expressed his gratitude to him on the ship, which made the old Jewish man very happy.
"Qin, I think it would be better to apply my avatar on the side of this ship, what do you think?"
"No, Daddy O, I haven't found you so slutty before."
"You are old and pretty, don't you understand? Besides, you didn't give me a chance before."
"God, you must understand a Chinese saying that you don't need to paddle for boating - it's all up to waves."
The tourism delegation returned to China. Hamre optimistically told Qin Shiou that the first batch of tourists would arrive at the farewell island in August. They could prepare for a trip. If this way of making money is successfully opened, it would not matter if there were no fishing catches in the surrounding fishing grounds.
After receiving this news, Qin Shiou felt a little moved and said goodbye to the island. The island is located in the south of Newfoundland Island, surrounded by the sea. Among them, there are private fishing grounds in the east and south directions, and public fishing grounds in the north.
There are six fishing grounds in the sea area of the east and south directions, among which the Daqin Fishery is the largest, and the other five fishery grounds are slightly smaller in size and have been closed. The boss either goes bankrupt or goes to operate other industries.
In this way, Qin Shiou thought, should he take over all the private fishing grounds?
If he set up a private fishing ground, he could let the fish in the sea wander with confidence, without having to worry about confining them to one position, and thus he could raise more fish.
In addition, Qin Shiou now has more than 80 million in idle funds in his account. It doesn’t matter if he puts this money in the bank to earn interest. It’s better to use them to do something useful.
Thinking of doing it, Qin Shiou found Hamre and proposed the idea that he planned to buy these private fishing grounds.
Hamre considered it for him and reminded him: "Qin, you have to think about it. Although I know you are richer, what you want to take over now is to say goodbye to the island's private fishing grounds. That investment is very terrible!"
"I'll do some calculations for you. At the beginning of the 21st century, when bidding farewell to the final glory of the island fishery, according to statistics from the town tax bureau, the six fishery farms invested a total of 20 million Canadian dollars into the sea in a year! It's been more than ten years now, and according to the price inflation, the 20 million at that time is equivalent to 50 million now!"
"The situation in the fishing grounds at that time was much more optimistic than they are now. Now the fishing grounds are almost abandoned. You can only invest money step by step. Plant seaweed, buy Arctic shrimps, various fish species, feed, medicine, etc., so that you can build it."
Qin Shiou didn't care and said, "I've considered all these, Hamre, believe me, I can do it well."
Hamley stared at Qin Shiou and nodded slowly and said, "Well, now two of the five fishing grounds have gone bankrupt and have been taken over by the town government and put them in the auction stand. I will find a way to give you the lowest price discount. The other three, the cod hometown fishing ground and the Mr. Ross fishing ground, are also willing to sell them, but there is no news about Wandering Star Fishing Ground."
Qin Shiou asked Hamre and then went back to wait for the news.
Hamre was very decisive in his work. He had just had a talk in the morning. In the evening, he went to find Qin Shiou and said, "We can find an opportunity to talk about the fishing ground acquisition issue."
Qin Shiou said: "There is an old saying in China that it is better to have a day than to choose a day, so what about this evening? I plan to go out to sea fishing tonight. I, Winnie, so if you are interested, you can also participate."
When he heard that he was going to fish at night, Hamre's serious expression was replaced by joy, and he patted him and said, "Good boy, you are very good at doing things. When I wait for me, I will go back to get the equipment."
Winnie is about to go back, so Qin Shiou takes her out for a night fishing trip, and she can talk to Hamre.
There were few people this time, Qin Shiou did not dispatch the Seaou trawling yacht, and changed into a high-speed cruiser to say goodbye.
After the wharf was built, Qin Shiou stopped all the ships:
The largest is the multi-functional fishing boat of the "Harvest", followed by the "Seagull" trawling yacht, followed by the small yacht, the high-speed cruise boat of the "Farewell" and the deck boat of the "Aurbach", two open first boats, and the Dark Night Thor motorboat.
When he drove out to sea, he said goodbye to his high-speed cruise ship, and his speed easily exceeded 30 knots, and he rode the wind and waves in the ocean.
The cruise ship is more luxurious, with a bathroom and kitchen on it, and three bedrooms, which can provide trips to three to six people.
Nelson drove the cruise ship forward steadily, and Qin Shiou and Hamre went to the deck to discuss things.
Hamre was sitting in a dangerous position, while Qin Shiou sat directly on the deck floor. Hu Zi and Leopard lay on both sides and put their heads on his legs. He stroked his two furry heads and asked, "If I want to buy other fishing grounds, will I pay for it all?"
"Silver?" Hamley asked in surprise.
Qin Shiou explained: "It means money. This is a title for us Chinese. It is used when friends who are close to each other discuss business."
Hamre was very satisfied with this explanation, and he said: "Yes, we are good friends, so I'll give you the government's reserve price. The two bankrupt fishery are the cheapest, which is only 15.8 million Canadian dollars in total; the cod hometown costs 11 million, and Mr. Ross costs 12.2 million, which are sold to you together with the land, equipment in the fishery and sea resources."
Qin Shiou blinked at the price and asked tentatively: "Is this the price?"
Hamley said: "Yes, it's the price, it's definitely not high."
After a pause, he explained: "Qin, you also know that in order to protect fishery resources, the officials in Maple Leaf City no longer allow the sale of public fishery and national fishery to private places, so every private fishery is a valuable resource."
Too high, Qin Shiou thinks the price is not that it is not high, but that it is too low! When Auerbach went to the island city to find him, he said that the Daqin fishing ground is worth 42 million Canadian dollars, but why are the total of these four fishing grounds less than 40 million Canadian dollars?
He said this question. After hearing this, Hamre laughed and said, "You were fooled by Auerbach. There is a mystery here. That's right, the bank evaluates the fishing ground every year. Because the fishing ground is not clear about the ocean resources in the fishing ground, there are three prices for the bank's assessment, one is the estimated price, and the other two are the interval price, between a certain price and a certain price. 42 million is the highest interval price of the Daqin Fishery, which means that the price is only worth the price when the fishing ground is rich in fishing resources."
