This Second Male Lead Has Something Special
Chapter 44
"Let me pick up mussels?" Jin Bei stood at the door of Su's house with her child on her back. She knew that Su Lin wanted to find her a way to make a living. Even though she knew it would be troublesome, she had to come here shamelessly.
She nodded, "Okay, I'll go pick it up after feeding the child."
Su Lin smiled helplessly: "Sister, why don't you ask me why I want to pick it up?"
"Your idea is right, I believe you." Jin Bei smiled.
She really didn't know why she wanted to pick up mussels.
Mussels are very common on the seashore. Even if someone wants to collect them, they are only a few cents per pound. It is not certain that they can be sold after picking up a bunch of them.
But she is different.
It would be better if she could sell them for money.
But if she really can't sell them, she can just eat them as a meal.
Mussels are especially delicious when steamed in a pot, which is better than eating the stalks by herself.
Su Lin was not sure whether he would live up to the trust, so he said directly: "I plan to try fresh food transportation. Mussels are in the harvest season, and they are plump and fresh. Let's see if we can sell them to the surrounding cities."
After all, it is a fresh product, so it can't be sold too far away.
If it is in the nearby surrounding cities, it is not impossible.
It's just that there is no fresh food transportation in their town, and they have to carry the goods to the next town to find a courier.
This is not a difficult task, it's just a little bit of effort.
But since you want to make this money, what kind of work is not hard?
Su Lin couldn't make a guarantee, he said directly: "It would be good if it can be sold, but if it can't be sold, you can also make these mussels into dried goods. It may take a little longer, but you can rest assured that I will come to collect them when the time comes."
He couldn't make up his mind about fresh products, but their store sells dried seafood well.
It doesn't matter who buys it from?
They are naturally willing to choose people with slightly difficult conditions.
"Okay." Jin Bei nodded repeatedly. Su Lin's words made her feel relieved. At least she would not be confused about the future.
She didn't say anything more. She bowed to Su Lin with her child on her back and left.
Su Lin looked at the backs of the mother and daughter, and suddenly understood Niu Man's original idea.
This seaside town is really too poor. It would be great if it could become rich.
But fortunately, there is hope now.
As time passed slowly, the fishing ban was finally over.
At this time, the residents of the town had prepared to go out to sea.
The more than three months of the ban on fishing gave Su Lin a lot of money, and he didn't need to take risks to go out to sea to fish.
But he and Niu Man planned to make a video about going out to sea to fish.
So he still had to go out to sea, but he didn't have to drive the boat himself, but took other people's boats and filmed the fishing process with the boat owner as the main subject.
This time, the sea trip lasted about three or four days. Su Lin had packed his things and was saying goodbye to his family.
"Be careful when you go out, but don't be stubborn. There are people waiting for you to come home." Grandma Su held her grandson's hand tightly, unwilling to let go.
But she had to let go.
Uncle Su and An An stood quietly by. They had an impression of going to sea. After all, they went to sea many times a year, and they knew that they were going out to make money.
One of them was young and the other was young, so they didn't understand the risks of going to sea. They only remembered that they had to go for several days and couldn't see each other for several days. Now they started to miss it.
"Go, everything goes well, and come back early." Grandma Su let go of her hand.
Su Lin said goodbye to them and went out with his things.
At the fork in the alley, he met Niu Man, and the two went to the beach together.
The Su family had a small boat. In the past, the original body drove the family's small boat to the sea by himself, drifting near the coast.
In this way, there was not much danger, but no valuable seafood could be caught.
This time, he planned to take advantage of Uncle Wang Yong's big boat.
Big ships can go farther, catch more seafood, and record more stories.
"The general is powerful, the second general is the pioneer... The fish is full when the leaves turn." Wang Yong put his hands together and chanted loudly. He shouted: "Return with a full load!"
Su Lin stood by and listened.
These are auspicious words before going out to sea.
It means smooth sailing and a full load.
"I'm a little excited." Niu Man was a little impatient. He hadn't been out to sea for several years since he went to study abroad. "Uncle Wang Yong's boat is the largest. I heard that it can go a long way. I have prepared the equipment for going to the sea and can also shoot the scenery on the seabed."
He was excited when he said it.
He has already posted a preview online, and many people are looking forward to it, just waiting for his video.
Chen Yali is one of them.
It is a very happy thing to be able to join the group to shoot, but it is somewhat stressful.
Watching the video on the sea is really a very stress-relieving thing.
On this day, Chen Yali had just finished filming when the assistant director shouted, "Take a break for half an hour, and continue after half an hour."
Chen Yali breathed a sigh of relief, finally able to rest.
The content she filmed was in the water, and her skin would swell if she continued to soak in it.
As soon as she got out of the water, the assistant next to her asked, "Yali, the food is ready, shall I bring it to you?"
Chen Yali thought about it, and finally shook her head.
It's not that she's not hungry, but she doesn't dare to eat.
The saying that she looks ten pounds fatter on camera is true, and she doesn't dare to let herself get too fat.
"You go eat, I'll take a look at the script." Chen Yali sat in a recliner next to her, took the script and read it for a while, and suddenly remembered the video of going out to sea.
She picked up her phone and saw that there were indeed several new updates.
Chen Yali clicked on the latest one, and then...
She regretted it!!
She shouldn't have clicked on it.
What's in the video? A coal stove was set up on the boat, steaming a pot of seafood just caught from the sea. In the video, a person was breathing heavily and biting an octopus tentacles. It was so hot that he couldn't speak, and he could only give a thumbs up.
Chen Yali was greedy...
Her stomach was already growling, and she couldn't help swallowing her saliva.
She knew she shouldn't continue watching, but she couldn't bear to turn it off.
She watched the people in the video eat octopus and lobster, and then eat abalone after eating lobster. She watched the whole 20-minute video from beginning to end, and she couldn't bear to miss a second.
The more she watched, the hungrier she got, and the hungrier she got, the more reluctant she was to turn it off.
This video is really addictive!
"Yali, it's time to get ready to continue filming."
Chen Yali raised her head and said to her assistant, "How about eating seafood tonight? Eating seafood won't make you fat, so we decided happily!"
It was obviously an ordinary live eating video, and the method was very simple, just steaming in a pot, without any seasoning, but it looked so tempting!
Everyone who saw this video swallowed their saliva.
The comments were even more explosive.
-Are there big lobsters for sale?
-I've eaten the mussels at the owner's house, they are very fresh! Put lobsters and abalone on the shelves, I will definitely buy them!
-Ahhh, why can't the express delivery arrive here, I'm so tempted.
-I've placed an order and look forward to the arrival.
-The owner sells it very cheaply here. I bought more than double the price in the market. If it's fresh enough when it arrives, I will definitely buy your store!
When someone asked if he could buy it in the video, Su Lin immediately posted a few links.
It's just that it's too far to deliver, and it can only be sold in surrounding cities at most.
But even so, sales are rising.
Wang Yong looked at the sales orders and couldn't help but take a breath.
At this rate, the several kinds of seafood they caught on this trip can be sold out at sea without waiting to land?
And the price of selling is much higher than the price of collecting the goods, and the profit of this trip can be more than doubled.
Knowing that these two guys sell things online, the sales are not bad, and they help sell a lot of dry goods in the town.
Even his old lady helps to make shell crowns, and she can make some money from time to time.
But Wang Yong never thought that the speed of sales would be so fast.
"It's a lot more than we expected." Su Lin said.
Before going out to sea, the two of them had an idea in their minds, but they didn't expect that the first eating video they sent out would bring them so many sales.
It seems that eating videos can be done frequently.
Niu Man also meant this. He didn't expect that so many people like to watch him eating.
Many people asked him to shoot more, twenty minutes was not enough to watch.
"Then I'll shoot a few more?" Niu Man wanted to do it right away.
It's easy to shoot a video of eating.
Who can't eat?
And he was busy eating without saying much, and the fans who watched the video didn't have any complaints. Everyone's attention was on the seafood, and they didn't really care what he said.
This is better, just eating without talking, it's too simple.
Su Lin nodded, "I'll set up the phone for you."
After setting up the phone, his attention was focused on several other videos.
In addition to one video of eating, there are three other videos, one before going out to sea, one of the scenery on the sea, and another one of the underwater shooting.
Among the four videos, the number of comments on the video of eating is the largest.
Next is the underwater shooting video.
Su Lin read several of the comments repeatedly, and couldn't help but have some thoughts in his heart.
——The scenery under the sea is too beautiful! I must go and see it in my lifetime!
——Where is the blogger's hometown? Do you accept foreign tourists?
——How much does it cost to go out to sea? Is it expensive?
——I see that the seafood sold in the blogger's online store is quite cheap. If you go there, will it be cheaper?
——Can we go to the blogger's hometown to play if we sign up in a group?
After shooting so many videos, it is inevitable that some fans are tempted to go there in person and feel the beauty of the sea.
Especially fishing at sea.
This is a project that cannot be experienced in other seaside tourist cities.
Swimming in the sea is OK, but most people really can't find such projects as fishing at sea.
Think about it.
Sitting on a big boat, you can not only feel the scenery of the sea, but also swim and fish in the sea at any time. When you are tired, you can sit on the boat and eat the caught seafood.
This taste is really too good!
So Su Lin thought.
Since there is a demand, can we also develop in this direction?
If this town is really developed into a tourist destination, it is definitely the best way to improve living conditions.
If you want to take beautiful photos, you can arrange it.
The sea is beautiful no matter how you take it.
If you want to swim in the sea or go fishing, you can also arrange it.
There are many fishing boats in the town. For safety reasons, a small number of tourists can be brought on each fishing boat to ensure that they will not be in danger on the sea.
As for seafood.
Of course, you can eat it however you want. For people in big cities, catching fish and eating on the boat is definitely something that people in the mainland have never experienced. Naturally, some people would like to try it.
Furthermore, the price of seafood is definitely much cheaper than outside.
Tourists can enjoy the things mentioned above, and residents of the town can also make money from these aspects.
Both parties are very satisfied.
But at the same time, there are also disadvantages.
It is inconvenient to travel by vehicle. If foreign tourists come here, they cannot reach the seaside town directly by plane or train.
The nearest train station is four or five hours away by car. There is no direct train, so you have to transfer several times to buses and buses.
Such a long journey is definitely not what anyone who travels wants to experience.
I am afraid that I will be disappointed with this trip before I even reach the seaside town. Even if I am satisfied with the rest of the itinerary, my rating of this trip will be much lower.
Next is accommodation.
The seaside town is vast and sparsely populated. Almost every house has a large area. If someone wants to live there, more than ten people can fit in a house.
But the accommodation conditions are not good.
Even if the residents of the town are willing to let tourists stay, the tourists may not be willing to accept it.
Most of them are brick houses with no decorations. They are very old houses. Not all tourists in the city can tell, but most of them definitely don't like such accommodation conditions.
They spend money traveling to have fun.
I want to live well, play well, and eat well, rather than living in a dilapidated house.
And accommodation is very important. Visitors definitely don’t stay for just one or two days, but usually four or five days or even longer. If they stay in a place that they are not satisfied with every night, they may feel aggrieved all the time.
Su Lin was sure that once he posted the accommodation conditions online, fans who had originally thought about visiting there would immediately give up the idea.
"What are you thinking about? I've already taken the video, but you're in a daze." Niu Man squeezed over and handed a steamed lobster over, "It's so fresh, my stomach is full and I want to continue eating." "
This is true, it is tender and fresh, and you want to drool just by smelling it.
Su Lin took the lobster and said what he had just thought while peeling the shell.
The more Niu Man listened, the brighter his eyes became, "If we start this, the residents of the town can make a lot of money."
Food, clothing, housing and transportation, everything can be earned.
Especially when these tourists return, they will definitely buy some specialties to take back, which will also increase the town's income.
Su Lin ate lobster and talked about the inconvenience of transportation and accommodation problems.
When Niu Man heard this, he sighed: "I'm short of money."
Su Lin nodded in agreement.
Just lack of money.
Otherwise, these two problems can be easily solved.
If transportation is inconvenient, then they rent a bus and drive directly from the airport and train station to the seaside town, which saves a lot of time on the road.
Although the time is still a bit long, fortunately, tourists do not need to travel around various means of transportation themselves, and they can also take a short rest in the car.
The accommodation is better arranged and decorated directly.
Don’t say it’s very luxurious, just make it a little bit distinctive.
But……
Short of money.
Without money, nothing can be arranged. Even if there are potential tourists, they can't take action.
Can they just give up?
Su Lin didn't want to give up.
During this period, after their beach videos attracted attention, some similar bloggers started to appear one after another.
Even seashell crowns can be found a lot by searching online.
The reason why their business was not affected was because they were at the forefront.
You must get your name out before more people follow suit, so that you can avoid being caught up by those behind you.
The same goes for creating a tourist attraction.
They are not the only seaside towns, there are many towns facing the sea. If they want to get their name out there, they have to take action before other towns have no idea.
After all, some seaside towns have more advantageous terrain than they do.
"How about you calculate how much money you have to invest in the early stage? If it's not much, maybe the two of us can squeeze it in?" Niu Man was unwilling to give up.
It's a good thing that I didn't have this thought before, but once I mentioned it, I didn't want to put it aside.
Su Lin also meant the same thing. He had to make a careful calculation first.
"Hu Ping's mother, there is nothing we can do. Hu Ping's child is really too quiet. I think you really need to take him and check him carefully."
The kindergarten teacher spoke carefully.
But some things have to be said.
In the past few months, Hu Ping's behavior has been too strange. It seems that he is not autistic. Although he doesn't like to play with children and rarely talks.
But he didn't behave like an autistic child immersed in his own world, but like a strange bystander who didn't want to integrate into the children at all.
No matter what, they all agreed that the child had some mental problems.
Since you are a teacher, how can you pretend that you didn't notice it if you discovered it? That’s why I bit the bullet and invited Hu Ping’s parents.
She quickly said, "We are not saying that there must be something wrong with him, but the child is still young, so it is safe to do a check-up."
Hao Hongling was in a daze.
He was not as angry as the teacher thought, but just nodded, "I understand, thank you teacher."
Without saying anything more, he took the child and left.
The teacher looked at the backs of their mother and son, and the more he looked at them, the more strange they became.
She suddenly discovered that she had never seen Hu Ping hold hands with any adult. Children always held the hands of adults or were held in the arms of adults when they went to and from school.
Sometimes I’m excited, sometimes I’m crying and don’t want to go to school.
And what about Hu Ping?
He was calm and disdainful, as if he looked down on them completely.
He didn't look like a child at all.
If Hu Ping knew, he really didn't think he was wrong.
Although he was only five years old now, he had lived for decades in his previous life. He couldn't pretend to be a child again, right?
It was too childish and a waste of time. He couldn't do it at all.
Now he was only thinking about why he couldn't be reborn later. It would take more than ten years to meet his elder brother, and he had to go to school again.
The thought of having to go to elementary school for six more years made his scalp numb.
Or, not going?
It's not like he can't read. Anyway, he can live a good life with his elder brother in the future. There's no point in having this diploma.
Hu Ping was thinking about how to get his parents to agree that he didn't go to school, but was told that his parents were going to take him to the hospital.
"Why go to the hospital?" Hu Ping was puzzled. Why should he go to the hospital if he wasn't sick?
Hao Hongling didn't look at him, but sat sideways and looked out the window.
She didn't know when she started to dare to look directly at Ping Ping.
Hu Kai didn't dare to say it directly, but just said: "Let's go and have a look."
Hu Ping frowned.
Is there something wrong? Why go to the hospital if you are not sick?
Here it comes again...
It's that look again, the kind of look with disgust and contempt, and he rolled his eyes directly.
If it was only Hao Hongling who felt something was wrong at the beginning, then Hu Kai also felt strange now. He had never raised a child before, but could a five or six-year-old child really have such an expression?
No direct explanation, the family of three went to the hospital the next day.
When Hu Ping saw the words "psychiatric department", he was completely angry, "Why did you bring me to the psychiatric department? Do you suspect that I have a mental problem? I am crazy, I have nothing to do."
After scolding, he turned around and ran away.
It looked like he was running away.
He said these words without restraint because he was panicked.
Could it be that I showed something that made them think that I had a mental problem?
If I was really tested by the doctor, would I find something wrong with me?
Hu Ping regretted it. If he had known, he should have pretended to be a child. If he was really discovered, wouldn't he be locked up as a guinea pig?
The more he thought about it, the more terrifying it became. He ran out of the hospital regardless of the shouting behind him.
But Hu Ping still overlooked one thing.
He is now a child, a child of only five or six years old. Running around outside alone, is he really afraid of attracting the attention of bad guys?
Especially in order to avoid Hu Kai and his wife, Hu Ping specifically hid in a place with few people.
He didn't want to show up even at night. Now he was squatting in the grass of a park, thinking about what to do next.
Go back to the Hu family?
It's not impossible to go back to the Hu family. At least he can eat well and live well, and he doesn't have to worry about anything in life.
But what if he is really caught as a guinea pig?
If he doesn't go back to the Hu family, he can only go back to his eldest brother.
Think about Su An, who I saw before, was so hungry. If he goes back now, won't he starve with him?
So annoying, what are Hu Kai and his wife doing? Can't they live a good life like in their previous life? You really think you have too much money and still want to go to the hospital.
"Kid? Have you lost your family?"
A voice suddenly came out in the middle of the night, which scared Hu Ping. He turned around and found an old lady who looked very kind standing outside.
The old lady smiled, "Can grandma take you to find your mother?"
Hu Ping ignored her. He hadn't decided whether to go back yet.
The old lady continued to look at him and took out a small bread from her bag, "You must be hungry. Do you want to eat some bread?"
Hu Ping touched his shriveled stomach and was indeed a little hungry.
He didn't hesitate and walked out of the haystack directly. As soon as he reached out his hand, he was caught by someone hiding nearby and stuffed into a sack neatly.
"I roughly calculated that if it is only a small group of ten people, the price is not too expensive." Su Lin took out the written schedule.
There are many rooms in the town that can be used as hotels.
You can find a house that is closer to the beach and can see more scenery. It doesn't need to be decorated very well, but it should be decorated with some characteristics.
"You can paint the wall white and glue some shells on it." Su Lin gave an example. Shells are really a very useful material.
The main thing is that it doesn't cost money, just a little more glue.
In addition to the interior walls, the exterior walls also need it.
Then expand the windows facing the sea and install white sand curtains.
The roof should be flat, make an open-air balcony, build a rest area, and install a swing facing the sea.
If you calculate carefully, such a simple decoration is not expensive.
Excluding labor, one room is at most over 3,000. If a group of ten people come, prepare five rooms.
The terrace is a little more expensive, and there are too many things to buy.
But the terrace does not need to be built so much, two terraces are enough for ten people to share.
"It will probably cost less than 30,000 for accommodation alone?" Niu Man looked at the calculated bill.
This price is not too high, barely within the acceptable range.
In the past few months, regardless of how much Su Lin has earned, he has earned more than this anyway. It is a bit painful to invest it, but he is not reluctant.
"It doesn't cost too much to rent a bus, about 1,000 yuan for a round trip." Su Lin said.
But this is the cost that tourists have to pay every time they come.
Accommodation is different. Once it is installed, you don't need to spend money later.
Unless you make a lot of money and redecorate it.
"That's totally doable!" Niu Man stood up, eager to do it right away.
He could take out 30,000, not to mention the 1,000 yuan for the bus fare.
"Wait, let me calculate it again." Su Lin said.
What to calculate?
Of course, it is to calculate the final expenses if tourists come.
How much is the accommodation, the daily meal, the cost of going out to sea for fishing, the cost of going to the sea, etc.
These costs must be calculated.
Then a unified price is set for tourists.
Su Lin calculated very carefully.
Finally, a price was obtained, including all expenses, and the charge for five days was 1,388.
This price does not include round-trip air and train tickets, but only the cost of pick-up and drop-off.
Three meals are included, but if you want to have a real seafood buffet (catch and eat as you go) after going out to sea, you have to pay extra.
Within five days, you can go out to sea at any time and as many times as you want.
Or you can play freely at the beach.
All these expenses are included.
The price calculated by Su Lin is very low, which is really cost-effective for going to some famous tourist attractions.
But at such a low price, he can double his profit.
Before the plan started, Su Lin contacted several uncles who often went out to sea. Like Uncle Wang Yong, these people had a larger fishing boat, and they went out to sea with three or four people each time.
When Su Lin told the plan, the uncles and aunts present were a little confused.
"We take people out to sea?" One of the uncles frowned, "We are going out to sea to fish, it is a bit inconvenient to take a stranger."
"Yes, we have to keep an eye on them from time to time to make sure nothing happens, it's too troublesome."
"If it's one or two times, I will help take people without charging money. If it happens too many times, it will really delay things."
They are willing to help take people for free.
After all, Su Lin and the others took good care of the town's business some time ago, and for this face, they all have to help.
But fishing is related to their family's livelihood after all, and it will really delay things if it happens too many times.
Compared to the rejections of others, Wang Yong thought a lot and asked, "You mean, you charge one person per visit? How is the fee calculated?"
Wang Yong grasped the key point.
His first reaction was the same as others, thinking that it would take too much time. If a stranger really came on the boat, he would have to keep an eye on him and take care of him carefully, which might delay fishing.
Last time, he asked two people to follow him on the boat to shoot a video. Before they even got ashore, they sold out several kinds of seafood and ordered a lot from other boats.
Since that time, he always felt that the business of these two people would get bigger and bigger.
He was old and didn't know much about things on the Internet.
But he knew one thing, since he was sure that they would get better and better in the future, why not follow them?
Even if he couldn't eat meat, he could always drink some soup, right?
