Golden Fishery

Thank you for actively voting for monthly tickets in the past two days, and many friends have given rewards, thank you all here! ****

The Daqin fishery has formed a complete food chain, which is something Qin Shiou is proud of, because the collapse of the Newfoundland fishery boils down to the collapse of the food chain, which prevents cod from surviving on a large scale.

Seaweed provides food for plankton, plankton feeds countless arctic shrimps, and arctic shrimps are food for small fish species such as herring and mackerel, and cod prey on herring and mackerel. This main biological chain can maintain , then the fishery can operate healthily.

After the Harvest sailed back, Qin Shiou first filled up the diesel and walked around the fishing ground, but he didn't cast a net, and he hasn't found a customer yet. Besides, the cod has only been raised for two seasons, so it's not worth fishing, and it will take at least two years just work.

The deck boat has become a new favorite. This small boat is fast and consumes less fuel, so it is the most convenient to drive it out to sea. Qin Shiou named it 'Auerbach'.

Auerbach personally painted the name on the deck boat, and Qin Shiou expressed his gratitude to him on the boat, which made the old Jewish man very happy.

"Qin, I think it would be better to paint my face on the side of this boat, what do you think?"

"Father O, I didn't find you so flirtatious before."

"Old Laiqiao, don't you understand? Besides, you didn't give me a chance before."

"God, you must understand our Chinese saying, Lao* doesn't use oars to row a boat—it all depends on waves."

The tour group has returned to China, and Hamley told Qin Shiou optimistically that the first batch of tourists will arrive at Farewell Island in August, and they can prepare for tourism. If this way of making money is successfully developed. It doesn't matter if there is no catch in the surrounding fishing grounds.

Upon receiving this news, Qin Shiou's heart moved. The situation of Farewell Island is that the island is located in the south of Newfoundland and is surrounded by the sea. Among them, the three directions of east, west and south are private fishing grounds, and the north is public fishing grounds.

There are a total of six fishing grounds in the waters in the east, west, south, and south, among which the Daqin Fishing Ground is the largest, and the other five fishing grounds are smaller and have been closed. The boss either went bankrupt or went to run other industries.

In this way, Qin Shiou thought, should he buy all the private fishing grounds?

If he owns a private fishing ground, then he can let the fish in the sea wander without worrying about confining them in one place, and in this way he can raise more fish.

in addition. Qin Shiou now has more than 80 million idle funds in his account. It's not interesting to put these funds in the bank to earn interest. It's better to use them to do something useful.

Thinking of doing it, Qin Shiou approached Hamre and proposed his idea of ​​buying these private fishing grounds.

Hamley thought about him, and reminded: "Qin, you should think about it, although I know you are richer. But what you are going to take over now is the private fishing ground on Farewell Island, and the investment is very scary!"

"Let me do a calculation for you. At the beginning of the 21st century, when the fishing grounds on the farewell island were at their last glory. According to statistics from the township tax bureau, the six fishing grounds invested a total of 20 million Canadian dollars into the sea a year! Now it has been more than ten years Well, according to price inflation, the 20 million at that time is equivalent to 50 million now!"

"At that time, the situation in the fishing ground was much more optimistic than it is now. Now the fishing ground is almost abandoned, and you can only invest money step by step. Planting seaweed, buying arctic shrimp, and various fish species. There are also feed, medicine, etc. , so that it can be built.”

Qin Shiou didn't care. Said, "I've thought of it all, Hamley. Believe me, I can make it right."

Hamlei stared at Qin Shiou, nodded slowly and said, "Okay, among the five fishing grounds, two of them went bankrupt and were taken over by the town government and put on the auction shelf. I will try to give you the lowest price discount. He and Mr. Ross Fishing Farm are also willing to sell, only the Wandering Star Fishing Farm has no news yet."

Qin Shiou asked Hamley, and then went back to wait for news.

Hamre acted swiftly and resolutely. He only talked in the morning. In the evening, he went to find Qin Shiou and said, "We can find an opportunity to talk about the purchase of fish farms."

Qin Shiou said: "There is an old saying in China, it is better to hit the sun than to choose the day, so how about tonight? I plan to go fishing in the sea tonight, me, Wei Ni, so if you are interested, you can also participate."

When he heard about night fishing, Hamley's serious expression was replaced by joy, and he patted him and said, "Good boy, you are very good at handling things, wait for me, I'll go back and get the equipment."

Winnie is about to go back, and Qin Shiou took her out to sea for a night of fishing, just in time to talk to Hamlei.

There were few people this time, so Qin Shiou did not dispatch the Seagull trawling yacht, but replaced it with the high-speed cruiser Farewell.

After the pier was built, Qin Shiou stopped all the ships:

The largest is the multipurpose fishing vessel 'Harvest', followed by the trawler yacht 'Seagull', followed by the smaller yachts, the fast cruiser 'Farewell', the deck craft 'Auerbach', two open-bow boats, and There is the Dark Night Thor Jet Ski.

When sailing out to sea, the Farewell is worthy of its high-speed cruiser, easily breaking through 30 knots per hour, and riding the wind and waves to gallop in the ocean.

The cruising boat is relatively luxurious, equipped with a bathroom and kitchen, and has three bedrooms, which can provide three to six people for traveling.

Nelson drove the cruiser forward steadily, and Qin Shiou and Hamley went to the deck to talk about things.

Hamlei was sitting with his lapels tight, while Qin Shiou was sitting directly on the deck floor. The tiger and the leopard were lying on both sides of him with their heads resting on his lap. He stroked the two furry heads and asked, "Would you like to buy something else?" Fishing ground, all I need is silver?"

"Silver?" Hamley asked in surprise.

Qin Shiou explained: "It means money. This is a name we Chinese people use when discussing business with close friends."

Satisfied with this explanation, Hamre said: "Yes, we are good friends, so I will give you the government's reserve price. The two bankrupt fish farms are the cheapest, and the combined cost is only 15.8 million Canadian dollars; the hometown of cod is 11 million. , Mr. Ross wants 12.2 million, which will be sold to you together with the land, equipment in the fishing ground and sea area resources."

Hearing this price, Qin Shiou blinked, and asked tentatively, "Is this the price?"

Hamley said, "Yes, that's the price, and it's definitely not high."

After a pause, he explained: "Qin, you also know that in order to protect the fishery resources, those officials and lords in Maple Leaf City are no longer allowed to sell public fisheries and national fisheries to private individuals, so every private fishery is precious. resource."

Tall, Qin Shiou felt that the price was not not high, but too low! When Auerbach went to Haidao City to find him, he said that the Daqin fishery was worth 42 million Canadian dollars. Why did the four fisheries add up to less than 40 million Canadian dollars?

He uttered this question, and Hamley laughed loudly after hearing this, and said: "You were tricked by Auerbach, there is a mystery in it. It's like this, the bank evaluates the fishery every year, and because I don’t know the resources in the ocean of the fishing ground, so the bank’s assessment has three prices, one is the estimated price, and the other two are range prices, between a certain price and a certain price. And 42 million is the highest range price of Daqin Fishing Ground , which means that the price is only worth this price when the fishing ground contains abundant fishing resources.” (To be continued)
