Chapter 423 Overt and Covert Struggle
At eleven o'clock in the evening, Langtou Village was quiet, and a small truck carrying seafood parked in front of Zhao Dahai's house.
Liu Gang pushed open the car door and shouted at the top of his lungs.
Zhao Dahai came out with a big bowl and said hello to Liu Gang while putting food into his mouth.
“Yo!”
"What are you eating? It smells so good?"
Liu smelled the fragrance and couldn't help but salivate.
“Fresh mackerel!”
“Would you like some?”
“There are about ten kilograms of fish boiling in the big iron pot!”< br>
Zhao Dahai pointed to a piece of mackerel meat in his bowl with his chopsticks.
This is the mackerel I just caught today. The cooking method is very simple. Cut it into large pieces, fry it, and simmer it with salt, soy sauce, and ginger. Calling it braised is not necessarily braised, but it is a bit braised. The key is that it is really fragrant.
“Hey!”
“Then I won’t be polite to you!”
When Liu Gang heard that there were more than ten kilograms of fish cooked in the iron pot, he knew this This is the most common way to make it in fishing villages, but the fish is fresh and really delicious.
Liu Gang was not polite to Zhao Dahai. One was that they had been doing business for so long and were very familiar with each other. The other key point was that his son Liu Lei had been coming to play with Zhao Dahai and Ding Xiaoxiang in the past two days. The relationship between people is very delicate. After a certain point, it's not good to be too polite.
Liu Gang followed Zhao Dahai into the kitchen and greeted Zhong Cuihua immediately when he saw her.
“Yo!”
“Zhao Dahai!”
“Xiao Naihei eats really well!”
Liu Gang looked at Xiao Naihei squatting beside the stove. There were several mackerel heads placed in the big basin.
“Ha!”
“Isn’t it true?”
“Little Naihei’s status in my family is very high!”
Zhao Dahai I took a big bowl, filled it with rice, added a few pieces of mackerel meat, and finally poured a spoonful of fish juice on it.
"Hey!"
"It's delicious!"
"It's really delicious!"
Liu Gang ate so fast that in less than a few minutes, Liu Gang ate like a whirlwind. A bowl of rice and a few pieces of mackerel meat went into my stomach.
“No way!”
"You can't eat any more!"
Liu Gang touched his belly, gritted his teeth, and put down the bowl.
Zhao Dahai and Liu Gang walked out of the yard, opened the refrigerator, took out the mackerel one by one, and shook off the broken ice.
Zhao Dahai pointed to the smaller mackerel. If he doesn’t want these, he can sell them to other fishmongers.
It is impossible for Liu Gang not to want it. The smallest mackerel Zhao Dahai mentioned weighs five or six pounds. Fishing boats that go out to sea to catch fish usually catch mackerel of this size. Why don't you want it?
"The total is seven hundred and sixty-five pounds per pound."
"Sixty-five yuan per pound."
"The total is forty-nine thousand, seven hundred and thirty-one and a half cents." ”
After Liu Gang finished weighing the scales and settled the account, he took the money and gave it to Zhao Dahai.
“Boss Liu.”
"The price of this fish has started to rise?"
Zhao Dahai felt a little strange after counting the money Liu Gang gave him. The mackerel I caught today were not many big ones, and the currency price should be around fifty or fifty-five yuan. The price of sixty-five yuan per pound was a bit unexpected.
Liu Gang nodded. The weather has been getting colder recently. Fishing at sea is becoming more and more difficult. The prices of fish, shrimp and crab are rising.
“The price of fish, shrimp and crab has increased by about 20% in the past few days!”
“It will continue to rise by another 20% in half a month!”
"During the Chinese New Year, if you can catch fish or catch fish, you can make a lot of money!"
Liu Gang washed his hands, lit a cigarette and took a puff.
Every year before the Chinese New Year, the price of fish, shrimp and crab will rise significantly due to the weather and the Chinese New Year.
“A spring child weighing a pound.”
“Normally, you can buy it for one hundred yuan.”
"Starting from the first ten days of the Chinese New Year, prices will rise one after another. It is not strange to pay three to four hundred yuan a pound."
Liu Gang runs a restaurant and is very aware of the prices of fish, shrimp and crabs. The period before and during the Chinese New Year is when prices soar.
Zhao Dahai remembered that he, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Da had a plan to have a good year, and he had to think carefully about how to seize this time and fish hard to make money. One stroke.
Liu Gang knew Zhao Dahai’s ability very well and immediately said that he should keep more fish for himself during the New Year period.
Zhao Dahai agreed. He had already agreed with Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou in the village to go fishing together during the New Year period. As long as there are fish in the sea, they will definitely be able to catch a lot.
"Zhao Dahai."
"How about that girl that brat Liu Lei knows?"
Liu Gang looked at Zhao Dahai.
I came here today. One of them wanted to collect the mackerel caught by Zhao Dahai, and the other wanted to ask about Yang Qin.
“Yang Qin has a generous personality.”
"I'm not a coy person!"
"I think it's very good."
"Ding Xiaoxiang and Yang Qin are best friends who grew up together."
"I'm not too sure about the situation at home, but I think those who can afford to buy a shop will not be much worse off."
Zhao Dahai didn't say how good Yang Qin is, to be honest To be honest, you can say as much as you know, and you can say whatever you think.
"Okay!"
"Let young people get along with each other about young people's affairs."
Liu Gang felt relieved.
Zhao Dahai was a little dumbfounded, pointing to his nose and saying that he was still a young man.
Liu Gang was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that Zhao Dahai was not a young man in his eyes.
"Ha!"
"Zhao Dahai."
"You are only a year or two older than Liu Lei, but who told you to be so good at making money?"
" I didn’t regard you as a young man!”
Liu Gang had long forgotten that Zhao Dahai was a young man in his early twenties, and felt that he was the same age as himself, so he asked Zhao Dahai what he thought of Yang Qin.
Zhao Dahai and Liu Gang chatted for a few words. It was getting late, so Liu Gang drove away.
Zhao Dahai took a bath and looked at the time. It was already two o'clock in the morning. It would be too much to continue fishing tomorrow, so he decided to sleep until he woke up naturally and talk about anything else after waking up.
Seven o'clock in the morning.
Shek Kok Village Pier.
Wu Weimin and Gao Zhicheng parked their cars, looked at Shi Jiehua's fishing boat, which was parked in the southeast direction of the pier, and walked quickly over.
"Boss Wu! Boss Gao!"
"Why did you two come here so early?"
Shi Jiehua saw Wu Weimin and Gao Zhicheng from a distance on the fishing boat and waved hello. Wu Weimin and Gao Zhicheng got on the fishing boat and walked to Shi Jiehua.
“Is this ready to go to sea?”
Wu Weimin took a look and saw that many people were busy on the fishing boat.
"The earliest one will go to sea in about three or four days."
"Boss Wu."
"What kind of plan do you have?"
Liu Jiehua He nodded, rested for a while, and prepared to continue going to sea.
Zhao Dahai told himself some time ago that Wu Weimin and others wanted to charter a boat to go fishing, so they decided to continue going to sea and called immediately.
Wu Weimin and Gao Zhicheng are here today to talk about this matter.
"How is the fish situation in the sea recently? Is it possible to catch big fish?"
Wu Weimin knew that Zhao Dahai and Shi Jiehua were familiar with each other, so he was not polite and went straight to the point. .
“Boss Wu.”
"If you only plan to go to sea for fifteen or even ten days."
"It's a bit overwhelming."
Shi Jiehua told the truth.
“Oh?”
“Why do you say that? Is there any big difference between a fifteen-day voyage and a one-month voyage?”
Wu Weimin turned to look at Gao Zhicheng. He was really inexperienced in this area and didn't quite understand why Shi Jiehua said this.
“Is it possible that I won’t be able to wait until the fish conditions are better in ten or fifteen days? Is it possible that I won’t be able to make any money in the other ten or fifteen days? Or the risk of making money is relatively high. "
Gao Zhicheng thought for a while and roughly understood what Shi Jiehua meant.
Shi Jiehua nodded. The longer the time, the more likely you are to encounter a time when the fish schools are better. It is very likely that you will not encounter it in ten or fifteen days, or the probability of encountering it is relatively low. The other ten or fifteen days are relatively tight, and it is unlikely that many fishing spots will be covered. The opportunities to make money are indeed few and far fewer.
“Boss Shi.”
“Our goal for this trip to sea is tuna.”
“If the time is right, we can catch big grouper.”
“Another one, this trip to sea is not to make money. "
"To be precise, I just want to fulfill my dream of catching big tuna."
Wu Weimin clearly told Shi Jiehua that the purpose of these people going out to sea this time was not to make money. To catch tuna.
Shi Jiehua had long known the goals of Wu Weimin and others from Zhao Dahai, but now it was time to discuss this matter seriously, and he had to make it clear.
Shi Jiehua took Wu Weimin and Gao Zhicheng around the fishing boat inside and out to understand the condition of the entire fishing boat.
Wu Weimin and Gao Zhicheng were very satisfied. The fishing boat is very good, very clean, has one main engine and two engines, and is very safe.
Shi Jiehua told Wu Weimin and Gao Zhicheng that the entire fishing boat had a total of 22 serious fishing positions. The boat trip took half a month and 15 days and cost 200,000 yuan to charter.
If the fish is not in good condition, no money will be refunded, and if the weather is bad, return in advance will be calculated based on the number of days.
Wu Weimin and Gao Zhicheng nodded in agreement, these are business rules.
“Boss Shi.”
“We are almost done talking about this matter, but there is still one last step left.”
“We have to find Zhao Dahai , let’s see if Zhao Dahai has time to go out with us this time.”
“If we have time, we can decide to charter a boat to go out to sea. If Zhao Dahai is not available, we can only make the next trip. ”
Wu Weimin stood on the bow of the fishing boat. Everything else is easy to talk about. The key is whether Zhao Dahai has time to go fishing with people like him.
“Ha!”
“Okay!”
“Zhao Dahai is very good at fishing!”
“If you can go to sea, you can’t be better. OK! ”
"That's right!"
"If Zhao Dahai goes to sea together, the shipping fee will only be 180,000 yuan."
When Shi Jiehua heard that Wu Weimin planned to ask Zhao Dahai to go to sea together, he was very happy and immediately reduced the fee. Paid the shipping fee.
“Yo!”
“Is Zhao Dahai so valuable?”
Wu Weimin laughed.
Shi Jiehua pointed at the other two fishing boats around him. Zhao Dahai is now famous. No matter what kind of fishing boat, they all hope that Zhao Dahai can go out to sea with the boat, not to mention free of charge, or even Happy to pay.
Wu Weimin and Gao Zhidu were happy, but it was not surprising. Zhao Dahai went out with the boat and caught a lot of fish, which was of great benefit to the reputation of the fishing boat.
Wu Weimin and Gao Zhicheng settled the matter, left immediately, and hurried to Langtou Village to find Zhao Dahai.
“Dad!”
"Will Zhao Dahai go out to sea with our fishing boat this time?"
Shi Zhongwei saw Wu Weimin and Gao Zhicheng, left the cabin and walked out.
“It’s impossible to say for sure!”
“Don’t look at Zhao Dahai making more than one million yuan from the fish he caught in a month with our family’s fishing boat.”
“For Zhao Dahai, this is really not very attractive.”
"I hope Wu Weimin and Gao Zhicheng can convince Zhao Dahai."
Shi Jiehua very much hopes that Zhao Dahai can go to sea with him this time.
"Do you want me to go to Zhao Dahai's house and talk about this matter?"
Shi Zhongwei thought about it and decided that he should just go there himself.
Shi Jiehua thought for a while and shook his head. This is not of much use. The key is not on himself and Shi Zhongwei, but on people like Wu Weimin and Gao Zhicheng.
"Hurry!"
"Get ready!"
"It would be a good thing if Zhao Dahai can follow us to the sea this time. If he doesn't follow us to the sea, we will still have to go to sea!"< br>
Shi Jiehua drove away Shi Zhongwei and took the time to repair the fishing boat and make preparations. Going into the deep sea is no joke. Every time you go to sea, you must be prepared and not be careless.
Shi Jiehua looked at Li Hongyun's fishing boat parked not far away, his face a little serious. If Zhao Dahai hadn't caught a lot of fish on his fishing boat on the last trip, he would definitely be the one who was embarrassed.
Li Hongyun's fishing boat has never left, and he is now making preparations for fishing before going to sea like himself. This is thinking about where you fell and where you got up.
“Is it really necessary to find Zhao Dahai?”
“Let’s see if we can go out to sea with the ship?”
Shi Jiehua He frowned. Shi Zhongwei didn't think it was important when he said this just now, but now it seems that it is really important.
Li Hongyun's fishing boat is eyeing here. If the next trip catches more fish than his own fishing boat, there will be all kinds of weird things to say.
Shi Jiehua thought about it for a long time and felt a little uneasy. He walked to the stern of the boat and told Shi Zhongwei that he had something to do. He got on the pier and drove to Langtou Village.
Shi Zhongwei watched Shi Jiehua drive away.
“Yo!”
“Don’t you care at all?”
“Why are you so not calm?”
Knowing that he must be looking for Zhao Dahai, Shi Zhong was about to continue working when he saw Wu Dabin and Wu Xiaobin boarding Li Hongyun's fishing boat not far away.
Didn’t they have a falling out?
What's going on?
Shi Zhongwei is a little confused.
