Chapter 878: More money (two chapters combined, 7,000 words)(2/3)
He nodded.
After everything was explained and settled, Ye Yaodong hurried to A Guang's house.
Everyone else has arrived, and Uncle Pei has finished eating and taking a shower. Everyone is sitting there chatting and waiting for him.
"I'm late, I just finished the chores at home."
"It doesn't matter, we have just arrived."
A Guang was sitting on the chair, and he was lying down on the table, with his buttocks exposed outside the stool. If there were no outsiders, he would have been kicked twice even if he didn't say anything.
"Now that everyone is here, let's start settling the accounts."
After he finished speaking, he put his butt back on the stool and sat upright.
"Dongzi, do you want to take a look at the order first?"
"Has everyone seen it? If you've seen it, just forget it."
"Just because you haven't read it, you might as well read it. As you read it, you'll know it in your mind."
"good."
Even though he was the second largest shareholder, he took the order in his hand without any courtesy, went through it first, and then read it out from the receipt.
There were only two orders in total, and the prices were not much different. According to Chen Qishui, they had been saving the goods for three days and couldn't load them anymore, so they contacted the fresh ship to harvest them.
Then they got news from the fresh harvest ship that there would be a typhoon next, so they fished on the fourth day and walked back. They went ashore and sold a batch of goods, and then came back directly.
There were more goods on the last day, so the price after landing would be higher, but it couldn't compare with the volume of the three days. He knew it by glancing at the date.
"1572, another 1353, and if there is gas and ice, 755 will be deducted, and then 410 will be deducted? And rice, flour, grain and oil are 26 yuan and 60 cents."
Father Pei explained: "The 755 yuan item is for refueling and adding ice to the dock in town after boarding the ship. I originally thought that this trip would last a few days, so after there was some left on the ship, I bought some extra to avoid having to pay back the money.
It was more expensive to buy it from the Korean ship. I persisted for three days. When I was selling the goods, I knew there was going to be a typhoon. I thought I would come back the next day, so I bought a little less, so I paid 410."
"Okay, Aguang, do the math."
Ye Yaodong hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Should we wait a month before doing the calculation again, fix a settlement date, and change it flexibly in case we are at sea. Otherwise, it will be troublesome to calculate the accounts one by one, and the wages will be high.
It’s also settled once a month.”
"We discussed this matter before you came just now. We just wanted to wait for you to come over. After settling the accounts, we would tell you and see what date it would be." Father Pei said with a smile.
"Have we discussed it? It means that everyone has thought of it together. Let's settle it at the end of the month! Once a month is just right."
"Okay, then it will be at the end of the month."
Aguang also added and subtracted them one by one while they were talking, "There is a total of 1,733 yuan and 4 cents left. The groceries from Dongzi should be counted as 10 yuan, so one share is 174 yuan, 3 cents and 4 cents."
He took it as a matter of course, and no one said anything uninterested, it was just some groceries.
Although the quantity is said to be a bit larger, it doesn't matter if you give money anyway, half buy and half free, you have made a lot of money.
Ye Yaohua also said in surprise: "Ah! So this trip is more divided than the previous few days?"
I thought I would come back early, so I went there for 4 days. This trip would cost dozens of yuan less, but I didn’t expect it would be more than 11 yuan more!
What a surprise, what a surprise.
Father Pei smiled and said, "It's hard to say what's happening with this trawl net at sea. Sometimes we can catch more in one net, sometimes less. It depends on whether it's worth it. It's all a matter of luck. It's normal to have more or less.
The selling prices often fluctuate.”
"What's more, the fuel and ice during the period will be less than the last trip, because there is some leftover from the last trip. If we come back early today, there will still be some left on the ship."
Ye Yaohua nodded repeatedly, "Yes, it was said that a lot of goods were hauled up on the last day, and they were sold ashore at a good price."
"That's right."
"Then if everyone is fine, then the money will be divided?"
A Guang kept turning the pen in his hand. He didn't know if the pen was growing on his hand. He moved from his little thumb to his thumb, and then from his thumb to his little finger, but it didn't fall off.
Ye Yaodong kept staring at the pen turning in his hand. Sure enough, after practicing the technique, it is not easy to forget it.
When he was in first grade, he ranked first in the class in transferring books!
Without interference, he can turn around for a minute!
He really didn't know when Aguang had mastered the skill of turning pens.
Alas, I dropped out of school early. I wish I had studied for two more years and practiced the pen-turning technique first. It looks so cool and feels better than turning books. I wonder if Ahai can do it?
"No objection."
Uncle Zheng smiled and said: "Haha, what can you say if you have money? I just heard that there is a typhoon coming, and I won't be able to go to sea for the next few days. It's not a good time to hand over this fishing boat."
"Indeed, the delivery was actually in July. There will be typhoons in the next two or three months. I don't know how many times I can go intermittently. Dongzi's delivery date is better and it will be delivered before the year."
"What's so good? It's almost the New Year, who's going? They've already taken off early to celebrate the New Year, but it's good to get it early. I was originally told that it was in the middle of the year."
Aguang motioned to Huimei to get the money, and then said: "It's very good. I'll pay it before the Chinese New Year. It will be a happy occasion for the Chinese New Year, and I will make a lot of money after the new year."
"That's right."
If you think about it this way, it's really good.
After settling the accounts, A Guang remembered that he had not seen Father Ye.
"Why didn't our dad come over tonight?"
"He went to the carpenter in Dongqiao Village to see if there were large barrels and bought a few. Otherwise, there would be nothing to hold the fermented fish sauce, and he would have to buy another truckload of salt."
"You didn't make a reservation in advance?"
"I ordered 10 large-capacity ones a few days ago, but they were made so quickly. My dad went over to see if there were any ready-made ones and brought a few back first."
"Yes, the quantity is so large. If you use a small jar and the water tank can hold as much as you want, you still have to order some large wooden barrels. It seems that your cost is not small."
"Originally! These wooden barrels are quite expensive. If my mother hadn't fermented two large barrels the year before last and sent them everywhere, there would still be a large barrel left at home. At the end of last year... or it could be said that it happened to be delivered to the store on New Year's Day. I
I moved the remaining ones to the store to sell them, and they were sold out soon after.”
"So my father just thought of keeping these trash fish back a few days ago, but the risk is also high. Every now and then, he brings back several thousand kilograms. When they are fermented and filtered next year, it is estimated to be dozens of tons. I don't know if they will be sold.
By when, how many large wooden barrels will be needed..."
The others opened their mouths in surprise and fell silent when they thought about it. There were indeed a lot of them...
The average person can't afford it, but the money spent just to buy the barrels will make them feel bad.
Ye Yaodong thought to himself as he talked, and was shocked in his heart. The goods from Aguang alone could weigh dozens of tons. If he added his own ship, how long would he have to sell it?
No, he has to take the initiative to contact Boss Zhou at some point and tell him about the large quantities of fish sauce. Otherwise, what will happen if the sales speed cannot keep up with his production speed?
Moreover, it took up too much space. His family had three rooms except the room where his parents slept and the old lady's room which was used to raise pigs.
Today I will stack the barrels again, but next time they will have to be stacked in the workshop. Otherwise, where will the open space be?
Moreover, if the goods are shipped out earlier, the barrels can be freed up for fermentation again, or he can ask around for plastic bag packaging in advance.
If you buy a bottle, the cost will be higher, the price will be more expensive, the bags will be better, and the recycling of soda bottles will still be worth 5 cents.
Thinking about it gave me a headache. Where could he ask about these packaging opportunities? It would be better to ask Boss Zhou first, as there were many opportunities.
Making money is not easy!
A Guang was a little stunned after hearing his calculation of dozens of tons...
It took a while before I found my voice, "Do you want to do less? If everything goes well, we will be able to produce several thousand kilograms of fish sauce this month. Three kilograms of fish will produce one kilogram of fish sauce, and we will really have a lot of fish sauce that year."
More than ten or twenty tons."
"If we can't sell out, we have to repeat the cycle, which is terrible. Otherwise, you can do less? Wouldn't it be better to dry more dried fish, dried shrimps and other dry goods?"
Ye Yaodong shook his head, "I know what I'm doing, so let's continue working. The quantity isn't too large yet."
"It's not that much now..."
Ye Yaohua was worried to death after hearing this. After calculation, he found that there were more than ten or twenty tons per year. Now he couldn't even imagine the amount of fermentation each time.
"It's not bad. Selling it will be a matter of next year anyway. Once the ship reaches the bridge, it will be straight."
"Then it's up to you..."
"A Dong is so capable. Young people are very courageous. They can make dozens of tons of fish sauce just as they say... We old guys can't compare... Haha..." Uncle Pei said with a smile.
Uncle Zheng also smiled and agreed...
Everyone kept chatting about Adong's fish sauce topic, chatting and waiting, until Ye Huimei took out their share, and the three of them happily took their share.
Ye Yaodong divided 523 yuan, and wiped out the two cents as soon as he said it. Compared with the last time, he earned 34 yuan more!
He thought happily, he still had to be one step ahead to make money, and the ones behind him would be able to eat if they were faster.
If it were any later, in a few years I might just be able to drink soup. In a few decades, it would really be all about gambling.
"Thank you for your hard work, Uncle Pei. Let's wait until the typhoon passes. I hope it won't have any impact on us. At most, it will pass by and the tail of the typhoon will sweep over. It will be fine after it passes."
"We'll see in two days. I hope it doesn't rain, otherwise it won't be easy to dry your dried shrimps."
"Yeah, if it rains and we can't do it, we'll have to fry a few big pots."
