Chapter 84 A small encounter in the town might be a family
Zhao Dahai ate this meal from noon to evening. He sent Zhong Shizhu and Lei Dayou away and returned to the yard to clean up the food on the table. I picked up the bowls and chopsticks, took two big cups, grabbed the tea leaves, put them in boiling water and washed them down.
"Second Grandpa."
"I plan to go to the town tomorrow to see diesel engines."
Zhao Dahai took a sip of hot tea and drank a lot of wine , sweat broke out immediately. Fishing boats have begun to test the water, so you must hurry up and buy diesel engines.
"What do you think?"
Zhao Shi puffed away at the chimney.
Zhao Dahai has thought about this matter for a long time and decided to buy two diesel engines, both with 25 hp, and together they are 50 hp, which is enough for his fishing boat and has good speed. Why not just buy a fifty-horsepower one? One is fuel economy and the other is safety. If you don't run too far or don't need to go too fast, a 25-hp diesel engine is enough. If you only have a 50-hp diesel engine, you have to use 50 hp at all times, which consumes twice as much fuel. . More important is safety. If a diesel engine breaks down, there is another diesel engine that can be used. The biggest enemy of a ship on the sea is not wind or waves but loss of power. No matter how big the wind and waves are, as long as the fishing boat has power, it has a chance to survive. With small winds and waves, once the fishing boat loses power, no one can tell what will happen.
“Okay!”
“That’s it.”
"Is the money enough?"
From Zhao Shi's experience, Zhao Dahai understood Zhao Dahai's plan as soon as he heard it. One 25-horsepower diesel engine is almost enough. If there are two, the most important thing is to consider safety. But one more diesel engine will double the money. The idea is good, but you have to have the money to buy it.
Zhao Dahai nodded. He had enough money on hand. The main purpose of buying ship-breaking materials was to save money and buy a diesel engine. If it was not enough, buy a new one and buy a second-hand one. If it didn’t work, buy both second-hand ones. , Gasoline engines are relatively expensive, and second-hand ones are prone to problems. Diesel engines are durable and durable. Second-hand ones do consume more fuel and are less prone to problems. Maintenance is relatively simple and convenient.
The night is dark.
Dense fog filled the air.
Zhao Dahai sent Zhao Shi back with a flashlight. When he came back, he saw Zhong Cuihua opening the door and coming out. He knew he was going to water the fruit saplings, so he shouted and said he would go, but Zhong Cuihua refused and went to the back of the house together.
Zhao Dahai was very happy when he saw it. Grandma Zhong Cuihua was worried that the chickens and ducks would eat the leaves of the fruit trees, so they all covered them with chicken cages. This is a bamboo woven cage with a height of half a meter high at the bottom and a diameter of one meter on the top. A round hole cover of about 20 centimeters can be used to protect the chickens from dogs, cats, and mice when raising chickens. The old chicken coop is useless, but this one is a new chicken coop that I bought specially. It is very precious. Several fruit saplings.
Zhao Dahai poured water and looked at the vegetable field carefully. He had been busy with the fishing boat and hadn’t been here for a while. Needless to say, the vegetables were green and lush, and every one of them could be eaten. It’s so much that I can’t finish it. The beans, luffas, and cucumbers have already climbed up the shelves, almost as high as my shoulders. Some of them have already grown flowers and will bloom in a few days.
After Zhong Cuihua watered several fruit trees, she planned to circle a place to buy some chickens and ducks to raise.
Zhao Dahai thought for a while and realized that he really had to do this. Apart from other things, he and his grandma Zhong Cuihua would definitely not be able to finish the vegetables in the vegetable field. They would have been wasted if they were left in the field. , buy a few chickens and ducks and keep them. You can kill them and eat them during the holidays, and you can take them with you when you visit relatives.
"Grandma!"
"Tomorrow I will go to town to look at diesel engines."
"If it's convenient, buy a few chickens and ducks. Forget about the geese. It's too noisy!"
……
“Okay!”
"Buy it back when you have time."
......
Zhao Dahai and Zhong Cuihua returned to the house while talking.
Seven o'clock in the morning.
Agricultural machinery street in the town. Ding Lihua rode his motorcycle and stopped in front of the largest shop on the street. He looked at the sign hanging "Lihua Marine Machinery Wholesale Department", opened the rolling shutter door, and started working. There were ten various diesel engines or automobiles. He pulled out the mobile phones and placed five of them on both sides of the store entrance. Then he tidied up the store and gave it a final cleaning. It was not until eight o'clock.
Ding Lihua looked at the whole street and saw that not a single shop was open. He felt a little proud. This year is already the tenth year of opening a shop. The business is getting bigger and better. Two secrets, one The first is to open a store one or two hours earlier than others every day. Don’t underestimate it. You can get two or three more businesses in a month. The money you make from the machine and the money you make from subsequent repairs and other things can be more. Make two or three thousand. Tired of doing this? How can you not be tired of making money? It’s not tiring to lie at home and sleep, but do you have the money? Waiting to drink the northwest wind.
Ding Lihua walked into the store, boiled water for tea, and waited for customers to come.
“Boss.”
“What kind do you want to buy? One for speedboats or one for boats?”
...
"This is an imported engine head. One hundred and sixty horsepower. For speedboats that run in deep seas, it is best to have two planes. One has enough horsepower to run fast and the other is safe."
< br>“But this thing burns oil badly!”
……
Ding Lihua had a warm smile on his face and kept saying hello until it was almost twelve o’clock. After taking a moment to take a breath, he saw off a customer, turned around and walked back into the store.
"My second uncle."
"This business is good enough!"
Sun Li came here half an hour ago. Ding Lihua's business is good, and people come one after another. I just gave away this one and bought two 160-horsepower speedboat gasoline engines. I made a lot of money now, plus the subsequent parts repairs and other things will have to make money one after another. This is The third business done in the morning.
"Sister-in-law."
"I heard from my brother that business has been good recently? Are you planning to buy a stall next door?"
Ding Lihua sat down, took a sip of tea, and nodded. The business in the store was indeed good. Sun Li was the wife of his eldest brother Ding Chongshan and his sister-in-law. There was nothing to hide.
“I have this idea. But I don’t know if it can work out. The business of the stall next door is not as good as ours. I can’t bear to see our family making money every day, so I want to change hands. Let’s see if we can negotiate it! "
"I came here for two things today. One is to bring a fish to my nephew, and the other is that your eldest brother has a friend who wants a gasoline engine, a larger one, to be installed on a big speedboat. I will come to the store to see you tomorrow night, saying that you are a big boss and I need to greet you well."
Zhang Li pointed to a plastic bag on the ground.
Ding Lihua opened the plastic bag and saw that it was a four to five kilograms of mackerel fish. I immediately agreed to the gasoline engine matter. This was to promote business for myself.
"Someone is coming!"
"Sister-in-law, sit down for a while. I have to say hello first!"
Ding Lihua heard a sound at the door of the store, and a motorcycle just stopped. Stand up and come out immediately.
Zhang Li looked up and was stunned for a moment.
Zhao Dahai?
Why are you here?
Zhang Li immediately stood up and walked into the store to avoid it. Zhao Dahai knew that she didn't want to see him. He might have ruined Ding Lihua's business here.
