Ye Yaodong picked up the little man and it felt like he had become lighter?
"Lose weight?"
Her eyes lit up, "Really?"
Lin Xiuqing smiled and said: "It's fake, it's just that I have taken off my thick clothes and worn short sleeves and thin pants in the past month."
"It's true, the less clothes you wear, the lighter you become."
Ye Xiaoxi pouted, hummed, and then rubbed Ye Yaodong's face with his hands, kneading it into various shapes.
"Hey, hey, hey...it's none of my business. It's not me talking about you. Whoever talks about you will do it to you."
Ye Yaodong slapped her butt twice before she let go and said aggrievedly: "I can't beat him."
Ye Yaodong laughed heartily.
Lin Xiuqing also smiled.
The family of three walked to the workshop, and Ye Yaodong put the child down and let her play by herself. The couple started to help with the work now that they had nothing to do.
The squid flood season has long passed, and the workshop has resumed its daily grilling of dried fish.
When he drove the fresh-picking boat out to collect the goods the next day, when he came back, it turned into grilled shredded squid again.
As the variety of fish products in the store increases, business is getting better and better, and they are also the first group to open a store in the city, and they have many trustworthy regular customers.
There have been many stores following the trend in recent years, but his business is the best because he is willing to spend money, has the most goods in stock, and has the most varieties.
There is an entire factory building opposite, which makes people trustworthy just by looking at it.
Ye Yaodong also has a shop at entrance No. 2. The surrounding area has become extremely lively in recent years, and even the shops with other entrances are easy to rent.
He was thinking about exchanging the store at Gate 2 with the landlord next door and making up some money.
The surrounding shops are now very easy to rent. The shop at his No. 2 entrance is now rented out steadily, and the rent is not much different. After all, it has become lively. I believe that if you pay more, most people will be willing to change.
Selling, it is definitely impossible for anyone to be willing to sell it now. After all, it is a chicken that lays golden eggs. If you sell it, you will have no money. If you don't sell it, you can still collect rent continuously. People nowadays are not stupid.
After coming up with the idea, he also discussed with Lin Xiuqing that if the two stores are next to each other, the area will be larger when the space is opened.
Lin Xiuqing had no objection and let him arrange it by himself, so when he went to receive the goods, he asked his father-in-law to ask for help.
His father-in-law has been in the city for three or four years and knows all the owners of nearby shops.
This matter only lasted about a week. He made an appointment with the person and talked about it several times. He paid 1,000 yuan and it was settled.
This kind of thing should happen sooner rather than later. If we push it back a few years, we will see that the surrounding area is more prosperous and human nature may be more greedy. It is relatively better now.
After it was completed, Ye Yaodong did not immediately expand the store. It was enough for the time being. He only opened a small door so that the goods that could not be piled in the store could be piled next door, which also saved him from having to move to the warehouse temporarily.
There is also a small bed for temporary rest inside, which is convenient for occasional rest.
After he finished this work, his father also sailed back.
This trip received a lot of goods. He weighed part of the goods to Ah Cai and sent part to various factories. He received more than 4,000 in cash.
His father sells cheap goods at sea, and after deducting the money for gas and ice, he still has more than 2,000 left in his hands, and the value of Ah Cai's money is probably more than 5,000.
This month, this ship has received more than 10,000 yuan.
I have gone out three times since the new year, each time lasting about 20 to 30 days, and I have earned a total of 40,000 yuan.
If you had not come back and stayed at sea, you might have earned more, but not necessarily. After all, you would have kept everything valuable.
In fact, the main purpose is to go home to rest and take care of the family. Being at sea for a long time is not good for your physical and mental health.
Father Ye was relieved to see him coming to pick up the goods, but he didn't have time to talk much. He didn't have time to talk until he got home, and asked him in detail about the arrangements he had made in Zhoushi.
"As long as it's done properly."
"Well, now I get a call every two or three days to report on the progress. Everything is fine."
"What do you say about that fish cannery in your town?"
"I've been idle lately, and as each day passes, I'm already looking forward to a good day. The second day of June is an auspicious day for the opening of the business. I'll cut the ribbon then, and the factory can start production immediately."
When Father Ye heard that the ribbon was to be cut, he sat upright and quickly flipped through the calendar.
"That's quite fast. We can produce it so soon. Well...it's the end of the month...June 27th...the second day of June..."
"Isn't this fast? Half a year has passed, and the small workshop at home has been renovated at the same time. It has already made a lot of money, and has been making money for several months."
"It's incomparable. That's a big factory. It's big and requires machines and labor to build. It's not like building a few houses and surrounding a wall and it's done right away."
"Um."
If you invest so much, you will definitely make a lot of money back.
"This time is set at the end of the month. It seems that I will go to sea again in a few days."
Indeed, he originally only thought about setting the date for the ribbon-cutting at the end of the month. He only remembered that he would have to dress more formally then. He really didn't think about going to sea. Subconsciously, he already knew his father.
The old lady interrupted nonchalantly, "Then just do it more. If you don't do it now, you won't be able to do it anymore when you get older in a few years."
"Am I still in a pity if I can't do it?"
"Forget it if you are too lazy. You don't want to do this or that all day long. If you don't do more while you are young, you will be disliked by others when you get older."
"It sounds like I will please you now."
The old lady thought what she said made sense and nodded, "That's true..."
Father Ye glared at him angrily, then got up and went back to rest.
Ye Yaodong took over the job of flipping through the calendar that his dad had just done. He flipped through it again and confirmed the date. The ribbon-cutting was on June 27th, the second day of the Lunar New Year. That was good for his dad. He should continue to go to sea in a few days.
Lin Xiuqing waited until her father left before remembering to ask: "The ribbon cutting will be held at the end of that month. Dad should be at sea. You won't go to Wenzhou next month, right?"
"Depending on the situation, I might go there for a few days and then come back. If we go back this year, the price-performance ratio is no longer high, but it's still okay for other boats. I'll see if other boats can go there. I'll also go to the lighter factory to have a look."
"We haven't cared about it. We stayed far away and didn't go to see it. We just waited for the money. It will definitely not last long."
"It will definitely not last long. Anyway, as long as we don't mention it, we will get a share of the money. It doesn't matter how much we share. When people really can't bear it anymore and they want to redeem the shares, then we will talk about it then. Anyway, we
It’s already a guaranteed profit and no loss.”
"Well, let's just take care of ourselves. It will be convenient for others when the time comes. If the price is right, we can just get rid of it."
"I know, that's what we thought at the beginning."
Starting from this year, there were too many types of lighters on the market, and they began to be circulated everywhere. He didn't have so much free time, so he just stocked and sold them, and didn't go out to buy new models. Anyway, this is not his main job, and he sold out.
Forget it.
If you have that energy, you might as well make your own workshops and factories better. After all, you are doing this all by yourself. You have invested your energy from the beginning to the end, and you plan to make it bigger and stronger.
He and Lin Xiuqing had just finished talking about this matter, but someone actually came to him the next day and said that it was Lin Jingye, his father's friend.
In the past few years, Uncle Jingye followed him around and made a lot of money. However, he did not change to a bigger boat. He still used the small trawler. He said he was reluctant to change it and he didn't drive it for many years.
Anyway, it’s okay to make less money.
Uncle Jingye happened to have something to rest and didn't go to sea for a day. Seeing that he was at home, he came to ask for a few words. He wanted to continue chasing jellyfish during the flood season this year.
After all, the comparison is with offshore trawling. Being able to catch up with the flood season for several months is a huge profit.
Ye Yaodong only said that he was not planning to go during the flood season, but if they wanted to go there, he could go with them, but he would only stay for two or three days and then come back.
As for what happens to everyone there later, he definitely won't know.
"Anyway, you have been there for two or three years, so you should be familiar with the situation."
"Then...the situation of the intermediary receiving the goods..."
"Ask A Guang. He should be back in the next two days. Ask him if he wants to follow you there."
"Then I'll ask him later, just because I'm afraid that when we go to catch up with the flood season, you will go up from home..."
"You also plan to follow us to Zhoushi this year, right?"
Lin Jingye said with a smile on his face: "Definitely, I made a lot of money last year when I went up there. It was much better than at home. At worst, I made twice as much as at home. A boat like mine is not rented, so there is no need to pay.
If others smoke it, all they earn is theirs, which is even more impressive."
"That's true."
"So I'm worried that if we go to catch the jellyfish flood season, you will start from home and not be able to keep up with the team..."
"You can first ask Aguang about receiving the goods. If you are sure you want to catch the jellyfish flood season, then go. Then you can call my home to confirm the time for us to leave home, and then prepare in advance. We
When you pass the port, stop there."
When I came back last year, I stayed there overnight. Although it was windy in winter at that time, it is not a big problem to stop there now in summer.
"That's okay, that's just right."
"You are working hard. You want to catch the jellyfish season and earn more, but you are afraid of missing out on the hairtail fish season in Zhou City."
Quite greedy.
"Haha, isn't it time to make more money when you want to make money? Fishing at sea was not so profitable in the past. It would be nice to be able to make a living. In the past few years, you have led me here and there.
, suddenly I felt like I was making a lot of money.”
"You will win only if you love to fight and to be adventurous. This is why everyone is bold and dares to follow."
"Didn't I see you making money? That's why I dared to follow you. It was because I saw you getting rich, or just under everyone's noses, that everyone believed in you more."
"Well, then you just wait for Aguang to come back and see how to handle the matter of receiving the goods. If it weren't for the peak season, the purchasing agency would have filled up every day. If it exceeds the quantity, it won't be needed. You can sell it to anyone you want.
.”
"We just need an intermediary, otherwise we will go alone."
"Um."
"Then let's do this for now. When A Guang comes back, I'll go to his house to ask and make sure."
Lin Jingye came to ask about it, and later someone asked him if he would go during the jellyfish flood season. He put the whole question on Lin Jingye and asked everyone to ask Uncle Jingye what he meant.
He wasn't going to take the lead this time anyway. He could at most help them apply for fishing qualifications, visit Zeng Weimin again, visit the lighter factory and then return.
And A Guang came back two days later.
It only took half a day to go to his house to talk about this matter, saying that Lin Jingye came to see him, but he didn't give a specific reply and said he wanted to think about it.
"Dongzi, what do you think?"
"What do I think? He should have told you that I will stay for a few days and then come back. I won't make any money during the flood season this year. After all, all my small boats have been rented out. Let's go to the bigger boats."
It’s not cost-effective there either. The hard work means little to me, it will only be thankless.”
"Although fishing is not cost-effective, the intermediary will make it cost-effective..."
Ye Yaodong understood that he was reluctant to part with the agency's profit.
"So you want to sail with us and earn an intermediary fee?"
"I have this idea, otherwise it would be a pity to give up the work of this agency. Although the big boat fishing was not ideal last year, and later went out to sea to trawl, the agency can make a lot of money. The two of us can share it, and one of us can also share it.
Thousands."
"Well, if you still want to earn agency fees in the past, then you can do the hard work and I won't bother you. When the time comes, you don't have to share the agency fees with me, and I don't care. You can just keep it yourself."
"Are you sure? In fact, you can just go and stay over there. You don't have to do anything, just help weigh the goods..."
Ye Yaodong waved his hand, "I'm very busy right now. The fresh-picking ship leaves the sea every two days to collect goods. I also have two workshops and two factories at home. I'm really busy and have no time to leave so many things behind.
Just to earn thousands of agency fees."
For him, taking care of those large ships and arranging the goods to be delivered to the factory are the most important. In the second half of the year, several large ships will go to the Zhou market to make big money, which one will be the big one.
In the past, I could only earn a few thousand yuan by working as an intermediary for two months, which was not as much as I could earn by collecting the goods twice from home.
Besides, he has all 17 boats rented out. If all these boats follow Uncle Jingye to catch the jellyfish flood season, then he can get half of them.
There is enough for him to earn here, so there is no need to hold onto all the money and worry about one thing and not the other.
It would be better for A Guang to be an intermediary. When A Guang has a purchase order, how much will the boats be sold for? He can just take the purchase order directly from A Guang and settle the accounts. No one can try to pocket it for himself.
This year, there are also a few people who want to go to the shipyard to buy ships, but there are too many people and the shipyards can only produce a limited number of ships. They have to continue renting what they need, and they have to help them do what they need to do.
Even if someone doesn't do it, there are still others rushing to do it, so there is no need to worry about no one helping him to work and make money.
Small trawlers can still make more money than trawling there to catch jellyfish. After all, jellyfish are expensive.
After all, he has thrown away his responsibilities, but he is also making money, which is enough.
Aguang gave him a thumbs up and said, "Niu, I don't care about thousands of dollars anymore, so I'm giving it up to save trouble."
"I'm not doing anything, and I can't dominate. What's more, I just charge a few boat rentals. If I don't stay there all the time, and you are the intermediary to make arrangements, everyone will feel more at ease."
"Okay, then I should come down and take them there at the end of the month."
"It's actually cost-effective to drive the Harvest there. You just need a larger ship to collect our goods at sea. You can rest assured that you can stay at sea and don't have to waste time selling goods ashore."
"I know, I just thought that I could copy what you did last year, so I couldn't bear to give up. Even if the goods are really not much, I can ask the boss of the ship to sail out to trawl, and I only need to arrange the receipt of the goods on the shore, both ends
None will be left behind.”
"Then you've already decided, and you still want to ask me?"
"Don't I want to hear your opinion? I have to listen to what you have to say. Who knows if Uncle Jingye has made it clear to you? I have to confirm it with you in person. After all, you are now the backbone of the whole village.
.”
"Your dad is so happy now. He doesn't even have to go to sea. You do everything. All he has to do is collect the rent, and he's already enjoying life at home." Ye Yaodong said jokingly.
"Last year I was thinking about booking a few more harvest boats, and I was also thinking about booking a fresh harvest boat myself."
A Guang said with a smile: "The idea at that time was also based on loans. I also thought about taking out a loan of 100,000 like you, and then ordering a few more ships, and doing a big wave, just like you, a whole one-stop service. Later.
I can’t get a loan, and I can only get a loan of 10,000 when I come back, so how can I dare to repay that much?”
"Moreover, the plan couldn't keep up with the changes, and the family was divided. My father didn't want to build them anymore, so he just divided them. They wouldn't let them get their hands on the family ship."
"I also advised my father that at his age, it would be nice to have a few boats to collect rent. Just collecting rent would make a lot of money, which would be enough for him to live without worries for the rest of his life. Don't even think about redeeming the boats to the workers.
, there are plenty of people willing to rent, and the rest of the hard work should be left to me."
Ye Yaodong said: "It's true. You can enjoy the blessings you deserve. Just raise your little son well. Don't think too much."
"Well, then I will set off at the end of the month. Now I will go and confirm it with Uncle Jingye, and then let him take a look at what boats in the village are going to go with me when I set off. Make a plan in advance
Prepare."
“If there aren’t many ships you want to go to, then you don’t have to worry about going there.”
"That's for sure. The intermediary must have more ships and more goods so that I can make money. Let him ask first."
"Then it's up to you to discuss it yourself. I don't care anyway. When we set off, I can at most help them apply for fishing qualifications and then stay for two days and then come back."
"good."
"By the way, the fish cannery in your town said it would open on the second day of the month, right?" Aguang suddenly remembered this matter.
"Yes, the second day of the sixth lunar month, the 27th at the end of this month."
"Then I may not be able to see it then, so I will send you fireworks in advance to congratulate you."
"It doesn't matter, it's just a small matter."
"Where are the small things? Such a big factory will cost a lot of money to run. It's not a small workshop. I won't see your glory days."
"I have photos, and I will show them to you when the time comes, so you know how beautiful I am."
"Haha, yes, the scenery is indeed different now."
When they talked about this, they couldn't help but lament that in just a few years, all their friends had changed drastically.
Fortunately, everything is developing in a good place.
"Aren't you also very beautiful? You have a big boat."
"What am I doing now? How can I compare with you? If there's nothing else, I'll leave first and give you a definite reply first."
"good."
After Aguang agreed, he got up and hurriedly went to find Lin Jingye.
Ye Yaodong also went to talk to Ah Qing, and the couple now discussed everything.
Originally, Lin Jingye came to see him a few days ago, and Ah Qing knew why afterward.
The two also discussed this matter.
"It would be better if Aguang is willing to continue to be an intermediary. You promised again that you will stop in Wenzhou to pick up everyone. There should be a lot of fishing boats going to the village. The boats we rented out will also be there by then.
We can collect more rent and we won’t be afraid of them cheating and defaulting on their debts.”
"Um."
Two days after they made the decision, there was a frenzy of discussion about the jellyfish flood season in the village.
They all say that now we are counting on these flood seasons throughout the year. As long as we can make money, it doesn't matter if we travel around.
Then everyone said that he had earned enough and there was no need to go out this year. He could just keep a few big ships at home and earn enough.
Some people ran up to him worriedly to confirm whether they were going to Zhou City in the second half of the year. Did they confirm the departure time in advance and notify everyone as Lin Jingye said, and they would be picked up at the Wenshi Pier?
For everyone, it is important to catch jellyfish, but the most important thing is the flood season for hairtail. This is the big catch, so as not to pick up sesame seeds and lose watermelons.
He gave them accurate replies and gave them reassurance.
While the whole village was discussing preparing to leave for Wenzhou, Ye Yaodong was also running to town every day.
That fish canning factory is now his largest investment. The total investment in it, plus the recent disbursement, totals 100,000.
This must be taken seriously. As long as he is at home, he must run over and take a look every day.
The factory is now almost full of employees. Every time they see him coming in on a motorcycle, someone will greet him respectfully, knowing that he is also one of the bosses.
He can do nothing, but as long as he is at home, he must come here every day.
There are only a few days until the end of the month, and it’s here in the blink of an eye.
Ye Yaodong got up early in the morning and put on a formal Chinese tunic suit. His leather shoes had been polished the night before, and he even smeared cream on his face.
"Dad, it smells delicious..."
He also put it on Ye Xiaoxi, and now she was so beautiful that she wanted to look in the mirror.
"Magic Mirror, Magic Mirror, who is the most beautiful child in the village..."
"Shut your mouth, don't show your gapped teeth, you are the whole village..."
"Ah ah ah, don't say that!"
Ye Xiaoxi, who was still narcissistic at first, suddenly became so angry that she wanted to beat him.
Ye Yaodong laughed and was chased out of the door by her.
When he was pushing the motorcycle, she caught up with him and beat him hard.
"Oh yes, my camera..."
"Dad, let me get it for you..."
She originally hit him, but in an instant she quickly ran home to get him a camera.
"Dad, do you want to take a picture of me?"
"Do you want to pat your chipped teeth?"
Chapter completed!
