Chapter 274 As Father Zhou expected, a fight for gold at night
Jiang Xia heard the whistle and looked out the window, and then saw a larger fishing boat approaching their boat.
Zhou Chenglei was also woken up. He got up and looked out the window. He quickly picked up the shirt hanging on the wall and put it on: "We encountered a fish transport ship. I'll go out for a while."
< br>"Will the fish be sold?" Jiang Xia asked.
“We won’t sell them, we will sell them after we dock. The Guangzhou Fair is about to start. The fish we caught today are all good. If we sell them at the dock, the price should be more advantageous.”
It was less than half an hour before they docked, and there were still fishing boats coming to collect the fish. Zhou Chenglei guessed that the other party was here to pick up the fish.
Zhou Chenglei was afraid that Zhou's father would sell the fish, so he didn't even button all the buttons after putting on his shirt, so he quickly picked up his trousers and put them on.
Two boats were approaching outside the window, and Jiang Xia stepped forward to help him button the top two buttons of his shirt.
Zhou Chenglei buckled his belt, put his hands on her waist, hugged her, and let her help him button up his shirt.
“Okay, let’s go out.”
"Yes." Zhou Chenglei hugged the person, leaned over and stretched out his arms to pick up the enamel bowl on the table, and took it out for cleaning.
When Jiang Xia saw it, he said, "I'll just take it out and wash it."
"You and I don't wash each other the same way." Zhou Chenglei let go of her, "I'll go out first, you Let’s pack our things and get off the boat soon.”
“Okay.”
Zhou Chenglei turned around, opened the door and walked out, closing the door again.
Jiang Xia packed away the towels, mouthwash cups and other things they had used.
On the deck, Zhou’s father was indeed asking the other party for the purchase price.
Zhou Chenglei came out and after listening to the other party's quotation, he found that the price was a few cents or a cent higher than what he encountered in the far sea. This price was within the normal range, neither low nor high.
He said: "We just went out to sea last night to participate in the Guangzhou Fair. There is no fish for sale now. I hope we have a chance to meet each other offshore next time."
When the other party heard that they had gone to sea last night, I went to sea late in the evening and came to attend the Guangzhou Fair, so I knew I couldn't miss anything.
Since the other party is here to participate in the Guangzhou Fair, he is probably engaged in aquatic product export.
The boat owner smiled and said a kind word and let the boat sail away.
After Zhou’s father waited for the ship to leave, he said: “The price is not low either. It is five cents to one cent higher than what we had in the open sea before, and some are even two cents and one catty higher. But when we return from the open sea, This also costs a lot of fuel, but it still makes a lot of money. It is estimated that the price will be one or two cents per pound."
Zhou Chenglei: "The Guangzhou Fair will be held in three days. At this time, the seafood will be more expensive. Import and export processing factories will prepare large quantities of raw materials or supplies. We will sell them after we get to know the prices."
Father Zhou also thought it made sense. What's the hurry? It will be a while before we reach the shore.
It was also because Zhou's father had never heard of the Guangzhou Fair before, so his thinking habits did not allow him to think about it in this regard.
Zhou Chenglei's guess was right. Twenty minutes later, when they docked at a fisherman's wharf, several purchasers and dealers from seafood processing plants immediately came up to them and asked them if they wanted to sell fish.
Zhou Chenglei asked them about their prices, and the prices offered by several people were similar. The difference was that certain fish were more expensive, while other fish were cheaper.
Every kind of fish is five to one cent higher than the price offered by the Ganggu ship. Some of the main exporters are even more expensive by 30 cents per catty.
Although it is only one to two cents, the small number is afraid of adding up. Their ship of fish goods is 100,000 tons.
In the end, Zhou Chenglei sold the fish to a large and well-known seafood company that he had heard of, hoping for a long-term cooperation in the future.
Now the purchasing office still collects fish every day, but with the reform and opening up, there may not be a purchasing office in the future.
Anyway, he was prepared, so Zhou Chenglei asked the price carefully, but he didn't negotiate much. As long as such a large company purchases seriously, its prices will generally be stable.
Jiang Xia had been listening beside Zhou Chenglei and did not answer. However, when Zhou Chenglei was interested in selling fish to this seafood company, Jiang Xia glanced at him.
Although Zhou Chenglei was talking about business with people, he would always pay attention to Jiang Xia. Seeing her glance at him, he lowered his head and looked at her, "Do you think it can be sold at this price?"
Jiang Xia is smart, attentive, and far-sighted, and Zhou Chenglei is afraid that he has overlooked something.
Jiang Xia shook her head: "It's up to you to decide." She just admired this man for taking one step at a time.
The two looked at each other, and Zhou Chenglei saw the light in her eyes, which only shines when there is trust and admiration.
Zhou Chenglei raised the corners of his mouth slightly, she understood him.
"Then sell the fish to Section Chief Yang."
Jiang Xia nodded: "Okay."
Then Zhou Chenglei went to sail the boat, and the two boats found a place to receive the goods.
Hongsheng Aquatic Products Import and Export Processing Company is not located in Suicheng, and the fish they purchase are also transported back by water.
There are also local aquatic product processing companies, but Zhou Chenglei did not choose them.
After the two boats were aligned, Jiang Yang and the others quickly moved the fish out of the freezer compartment at the bottom of the boat.
Jiang Xia watched as basket after basket of mackerel was brought up and handed to the other party's boat. The other boatman took it and handed it to another boatman to move into the freezer.
Jiang Xia thought of the conveyor belt.
It would be much more convenient and easier if there was a transmission device!
Look for Jiang Dong!
This is not difficult to design at all, and the principle is simple.
Yang Youbang, Section Chief of the Purchasing Department of Hongsheng Aquatic Products Processing Factory, saw that some of these fish were not frozen yet, but they had good luster and color. They looked fresh at first sight. He smiled and said: "These mackerel have just been caught in the net. "Not long?"
Zhou Chenglei: "All the fish were set up at five o'clock this morning, and only one net was caught."
Yang Youbang nodded and felt something was wrong. The other party said there were more than three thousand baskets of goods?
Usually a basket weighs fifty kilograms, which means a net weighs hundreds of thousands kilograms?
In fact, a net of more than 100,000 kilograms of fish is really not much for their company.
If one hundred thousand catties is two to three catties of mackerel, it would only be tens of thousands of fish, which is enough if you encounter one or two larger schools of fish.
The boats in their factory go to the high seas and go fishing in the real deep sea. They have tried fishing with a net of 100 tons. Of course, the boats in the factory are much bigger than his, and they are the kind of fishing boats that are 100 meters long.
His boat, which is more than 20 meters long, is not enough to go to the real deep sea.
But now they are here to participate in the Guangzhou Fair, and they dragged a net on the way. If they can catch 100,000 catties in the inland sea, they are really lucky.
"You are so lucky!"
Zhou Chenglei just smiled.
It took more than an hour to move all the fish to the other party's boat.
A basket of mackerel is 45 yuan, a basket of mackerel is 40 yuan, and the hake is worth 80 yuan a basket.
In the end, this website sold it for 100,1888 yuan, rounded up.
As Zhou's father expected, there was a fight for gold at night.
Although the Guangzhou Fair has not started yet, foreign businessmen have already arrived. Their factory has received a large order. Section Chief Yang still wants to continue purchasing. He readily gave the money and went on to find a large ship to collect. Fish.
One hundred thousand yuan is a lot for Zhou’s father. He never dared to think that he could earn it in his life. But for Yang Youbang, the purchasing section chief of a large public import and export company, he has to purchase every day. There are many goods, and the money that comes out of his hands is far more than 100,000, so he doesn't think it is much because he has seen too much.
So Father Zhou’s hands trembled slightly when he heard one hundred thousand yuan, but people are used to it, and his expression doesn’t even change when he takes the money.
The fish caught by Yang Bin and the others sold for about 300 each. In addition, Zhou Chenglei gave each of them 200 red envelopes as bonuses, and the wages will be calculated after they go out to sea.
Everyone is happy!
Zhou Chenglei left 20,000 yuan for Zhou's father to refuel the boat and provide backup, so he and Jiang Xia took a taxi to the hotel with a travel bag and a large sum of money.
