Fisherman: Making A Fortune Starts By Reporting Spies

On drying fish!

The most experienced ones are the women around the fishing villages, because they often expose themselves to the sun.

Aunt Su is one of them. Not only is she very experienced, but secondly, it seems that the fishing boat will be docked in less than an hour, so preparations must be made first.

"Xiaodong..."

"Aunt, we are returning to port!"

Su Xiangdong didn't have time to chat. He first talked about returning to Hong Kong, and then talked about the real purpose of making this call: "Not long after we went to sea this time, we caught a large number of skinned fish. The whole boat was filled with skinned fish, and even the deck was full of skinned fish. At this time, the fish market on the pier has been dispersed, and there is no way to deal with it."

"Even if we sell it to a large wholesaler, if we order it at this time, we probably won't even sell it for 2 yuan per pound. I have discussed it with my third uncle and plan to dry the skinned fish. [We will hire a truck to take it back to the village when we get to the cliff." ."

"Preliminary estimates are that there are 330 tons, more or less, more than 660,000 kilograms, which is a lot."

"Now you go to the village committee to find someone, make a radio broadcast, and say 300 yuan a day, any old man or woman in the village can do it, peel the skin, kill the head and cut off the tail, and those who have some mobility are not asked 27 It doesn’t matter if you’re responsible for drying the fish, it’s only 300 yuan a day, and you’ll pay it off at night.”

"There are too many people. There must be more people. If there are not enough people in the village, we will hire people from neighboring villages. 300 people are not too much, 500 people will be fine. The weather is so hot. If we can't finish it in one day, we will It will stink tomorrow, but it will be a waste."

"Also... go to the town to buy some nets and dry the fish on them. It will be convenient when you want to put them away at night. For other things, like salt... use coarse salt. In this way, we can buy it back at the dock. With so much fish, do you estimate how much coarse salt is needed?"

Su Xiangdong made some hair arrangements, but he was afraid that in order to save money, the third aunt would hire fewer people, which would seriously slow down the progress and cause losses. In terms of hiring people, he made direct arrangements, and he didn't know much about other things. , just asked.

"More than 660,000 kilograms!"

Aunt Su was dumbfounded. She had only been out to sea for a few hours. She was already on the way back and it wouldn't take long to reach the shore. The harvest was a bountiful harvest, which made her extremely happy. But when she thought of drying the fish, she just couldn't. You need to make a careful calculation: "In this way... I will buy 3,000 kilograms of salt first. I don't think it will be enough, but it will be enough for now. If there is a shortage later, I will buy it. Anyway, it is convenient to have a car. If you buy more, let others give it to you." It’s also okay to load the goods at the station.”

"Okay, 3,000 kilograms of coarse salt, right? Let's take it back when we go back!"

Su Xiangdong confirmed that what needed to be said had been said, and he did not need to worry about the remaining small details: "We don't expect to return to the village in more than 2 hours.

"Okay, I'll hire someone first and get ready!"

Aunt Su also knows that the matter she is responsible for is very important, and she cannot let go of the chain at this time: "When the fish is brought back, it can be dumped in front of the village committee. Anyway, it is to be dried in the sun. It doesn't matter so much. It can only be done there." You can let it go.”

"OK!"

"Okay, I'll hang up and go back right away."

No surprises.

Su Xiangdong guessed that the third aunt was probably working on those acres of land again.

After going to sea twice, I gained a lot. If you really want to say it, it doesn't matter if the few acres of land were wasted. Anyway, I didn't make much money after working hard for a year, not even a fraction of the harvest from each time I went to sea.

But sometimes, people of the older generation can't just let go.

Especially when it comes to earth, I have special emotions that I really can't let go of, unless I wait until I get old and can't do it anymore, then there's nothing I can do about it.

in a history of more than five thousand years.

Our ancestors have been digging in the ground for food all our lives. How could we not have special emotions, and how could we let go?

Anyway, as long as you are in the village, the land cannot be worked. Sometimes it really has nothing to do with whether you have money or not, but it is something you are used to and worried about.

Don’t listen to advice or not!

I can only let it go.

"Lao Liu...how are you getting in touch with the truck?" Su Xiangdong is really not very familiar with the area around the county.

"Already contacted!"

Mate Liu sighed. The shipowner entrusted this task to him. It was not that it was not completed, but it was not done well: "Only medium-sized trucks and 60-ton trucks were contacted, and there were only 5 of them. Although the load was nearly It looks like 30 tons, and can hold skinned fish. One truck probably can't even hold 10 tons, and we don't have any larger trucks here.

"Only 5 cars?"

Su Xiangdong couldn't help frowning, but he also knew that this was the reality. He waved his hand: "Forget it, a 10-ton car is 10 tons. If you run a few more times, it only takes about an hour to go back and forth. Let's go there." If they make more trips, they can finish the shipment."

"Sure, then I'll call them to confirm."

Mate Liu did not manage this matter perfectly, and felt a little guilty, but he really had no choice: "Why don't we just charter a car? No matter how many trips we make, we should be able to negotiate for 1,000 yuan a car."

"Just talk to them based on this, explain to them, it's possible to draw a car and only make six or seven trips!"

Su Xiangdong has already calculated it secretly, and feels that it is similar: "It only takes six or seven trips, and the asking price is a little higher, but it doesn't make sense." 1,000 yuan for ten cars should be pretty good.

"I'll cut it off. If it's 800 yuan, it would be best. If it doesn't work, it can only be 1,000 yuan."

"Okay, you can do whatever you want!"

Su Xiangdong completely handed over this matter. It was all about 200 yuan. Even five cars only cost 1,000 yuan. To him, it was really not a big amount of money, just a small sum.

Didn't take it to heart. 600

The family has been contacted!

The truck also has a look.

You can relax and wait for the fishing boat to return to the port.

Forty minutes of sailing!

The pier can be seen with the naked eye and is very close.

But when the fishing boat arrived at the dock, it encountered a problem.

"Uncle's..."

Su Xiangdong said a foul word, and his heart was filled with anger. His anger rose rapidly and went straight to his forehead. He picked up the walkie-talkie and said, "Uncle San... Just lean over and don't worry about any problems. Anyway, it's not us who will suffer losses." "

"This... Okay!" Uncle Su was hesitant, but there was really no good way to do it at this time.

the reason is simple!

At the exclusive berth for their fishing boats, there was a boat parked, which was quite small.

You can tell it's a transport ship at a glance.

This type of boat is very common, neither big nor small. It has only one function, which is that in the early morning, such a boat will drive out of the dock to help some fishing boats that cannot dock to transfer fish.

This ship occupies their exclusive berth.

That was an exclusive berth. They spent a lot of money to rent it. Even if they didn't park their own boats, they wouldn't allow any boats to park here. However, there was one parked there, and judging from the condition of the boat, it was clear that it was a new one. The boat must have just been launched not long ago.

This is a bit intriguing.
