Rebirth of a Fishing Village: Starting From Hua Axiang in Jiehu Village

Chapter 859 Ding Xiaoxiang Is a Stingy Person

Night falls.

Ding Xiaoxiang looked at the Hongyun Restaurant, which was brightly lit, bustling with people.

"Yang Qin!"

"The business of Hongyun Restaurant is really good!"

Ding Xiaoxiang knew that doing business was a big deal, especially for this kind of catering business, which had very high profits. Not to mention that the restaurant was full of people, even if only one-third of the tables were full every night, they could make a lot of money.

"Business is really good. If it goes on like this for a year, maybe we can really make millions, or even 10 million."

Yang Qin was a little proud. Ding Xiaoxiang was a businessman, and she was her good sister, so there was nothing to hide about such things.

"By the way, the fish caught by Zhao Dahai's speedboat are so popular. The groupers and the like have already been ordered when I called. The remaining sea bass are also very popular, especially those that are 20 to 30 kilograms!"

"The sea bass that were just caught are already gone!"

"There are so many people who want fish when I called!"

"Ding Xiaoxiang, can't you ask Zhao Dahai to catch more?"

When Yang Qin thought of the sea bass that were just returned at noon, especially the big sea bass, Liu Lei sold them all by phone.

"Hey!"

"What you said is really unreasonable!"

"Aren't the fish Zhao Dahai has caught enough? How can he catch more?"

"Those other speedboats that go out to sea for fishing, let alone ten, even if they are thirty or forty, may not be able to catch as many fish as Zhao Dahai!"

Ding Xiaoxiang knew that Yang Qin or Liu Lei's Hongyun Restaurant was doing very well, and they wanted to catch more fish, sell more fish and make more money, but it was not because there were too few fish, but because there were too many fish sold in the restaurant, and there were too many rich people who wanted to eat good fish.

"Forget it!"

"You don't have the final say on this matter, Zhao Dahai knows what he is going to do when he goes out to sea for fishing!"

"That's right!"

"Did you agree to what your second aunt came to you to say just now?"

Yang Qin thought of what Zhou Yu came to Ding Xiaoxiang to say just now.

Ding Xiaoxiang nodded. Zhou Yu, who was in the second trial, came to her and asked her not to wait too long when looking for a boss. Ding Dawen would learn how to drive a fishing boat. This would be very beneficial to her and Zhao Dahai. It was like Ding Dawen doing the work of two people. She had no reason to refuse. When Ding Dawen could really take charge and drive a fishing boat by himself, she would make him the captain and give him a higher salary.

"If Ding Dawen can go out to sea with the boat and become the captain, it would be a good thing for you and me. I really don't trust other people!"

Yang Qin, like Ding Xiaoxiang, hoped that Ding Dawen could go out to sea with the boat. If Ding Dawen really became the captain, she and Ding Xiaoxiang would be happy to see it happen. These fish were not only related to Zhao Dahai and Ding Xiaoxiang, but also closely related to herself and Liu Lei's Hongyun Restaurant.

"Hehehe!"

"Don't worry about it. My cousin Ding Dawen can drive a fishing boat, but he has never driven such a large sea boat. It only takes some time, or even someone to teach him, and then practice it. It's not difficult. I estimate that in one or two months, Ding Dawen will be able to take charge of his own work and become the captain of this fishing boat."

"It's very convenient to have such a fishing boat."

"One is that it can be used when fishing at sea. In addition, if you want to go farther or stay in one place for a longer time, this boat can play a role. At the end of last year, didn't Zhao Dahai and Zhong Shizhu stay on the artificial island for almost a month? We rented a sea fishing boat for this purpose. Now we have a boat and don't need to do such things anymore."

Ding Xiaoxiang knew that it would cost a lot of money to maintain such a fishing boat. Sometimes, or even one-third of the time in a month, the boat would not play much role, but it was still very cost-effective.

"Ah?"

"In that case, wouldn't it be necessary to buy a fishing boat as big as a sea fishing boat?"

Originally, Yang Qin thought that she only needed to buy a larger fishing boat that could pull five or six thousand kilograms, or seven or eight thousand kilograms of live fish. Now that Ding Xiaoxiang said this, it seemed that she would buy a sea fishing boat in one step.

Ding Xiaoxiang nodded. She was really thinking about this matter. A brand new sea fishing boat, especially a large one, was very valuable. However, the sea fishing boat she and Zhao Dahai had didn't need to really go deep-sea fishing. It was just mainly used to pull fish in the open sea. A second-hand one was enough. The price was not too high. It could be used not only for daily use, but also for when Zhao Dahai went to artificial islands or other places to fish and feed the fish he caught at the end of the year.

Yang Qin thought about it and immediately agreed to buy a large sea fishing boat directly, so that she would not have to rent other people's fishing boats at the end of the year. There was no need for this.

"Hee!"

"Why do I feel that you are so enthusiastic about this matter?"

Ding Xiaoxiang looked at Yang Qin, and this matter was a bit wrong. Buying a fishing boat or hiring people was all her and Zhao Dahai's business. Yang Qin or Liu Lei and Liu Gang were just the people who bought the fish.

"What's the big deal?"

"It's you and Zhao Dahai who really pay for it, not me. It must be the bigger the better!"

Yang Qin rolled her eyes a few times and blurted out.

"Hmph!"

"You are thinking that Zhao Dahai and I will buy a bigger sea fishing boat, and the fish we catch can be kept alive on the fishing boat."

"In this case, won't the fish in your restaurant be more vigorous?"

"Won't it just make more money?"

Ding Xiaoxiang pondered for a while and immediately understood what Yang Qin was thinking. Now that Zhao Dahai has caught fish and sold them alive to Liu Gang and Liu Lei, they will want to keep them in live water tanks. No matter how they are raised, these fish can't really last too long, or their freshness will be affected to a certain extent, or they will become thinner. If they are kept in a sea fishing boat, that's another matter. The boat is parked in the sea, and it uses seawater to raise fish, which is much more convenient.

If Liu Gang or Liu Lei wants fish, they can drive the seafood truck to the sea fishing boat at the dock on the same day or the night before to get it. This is the real freshness and vigor.

"In this case, I have to consider the price of this fish. It must be raised."

Ding Xiaoxiang figured out what Yang Qin was thinking and immediately thought that the price of this fish had to go up.

"Ding Xiaoxiang!"

"You are really a stingy person!"

"It's just such a small amount of money and such a small discount, but you have to take it for yourself."

Yang Qin was a little amused. She did have such an idea. In this way, the fish would be easier to keep and the restaurant would definitely sell it at a higher price. But Ding Xiaoxiang really wanted to raise the price now. With this price increase, the salary of Ding Dawen and other people working on the fishing boat would be earned. Zhao Dahai and Ding Xiaoxiang bought a sea fishing boat and hired several people to work. Except for the money for buying the boat, the wages of the workers were all paid by themselves, or Liu Lei and Liu Gang's restaurant. After a long time, it is possible that the money for buying the boat will come from their family or Wu Weimin.

"What are you talking about? How can I take advantage of you? Doesn't it cost money to buy a boat and hire people? And these fish are kept on my sea fishing boat, isn't it risky? You can't keep them on my sea fishing boat, and if the fish die, you still have to buy them at the price of live fish, right?"

"If you dare to agree to this, then I won't raise the price!"

Ding Xiaoxiang was not polite at all.

Yang Qin had no temper at all. Liu Gang and Liu Lei's seafood restaurant was doing the business of fresh seafood. It was absolutely impossible for dead fish to be priced the same as live fish. What Ding Xiaoxiang said made sense. If the fish died on the fishing boat, the risk would definitely be borne by Ding Xiaoxiang and Zhao Dahai. In this case, it would be fine to charge a little more money and raise the price a little.

"What can be done about this? Whatever you want, I can't stop you from raising the price, right?"

Yang Qin was really a little helpless, but there was really no way to deal with this matter. What Ding Xiaoxiang said made sense.

"Hey!"

"Ding Xiaoxiang."

"Your eyes are rolling around. What are you thinking about? Are you thinking of something else?"

Yang Qin saw that Ding Xiaoxiang didn't say anything for a while, and her eyes kept rolling. She knew that she must be thinking of something. It was definitely not as simple as raising the price.

"Hey!"

"Ding Xiaoxiang."

"You are not thinking that you won't sell the valuable fish caught by Zhao Dahai so quickly, or even if you sell them, you won't sell so many at once, right?"

Yang Qin was also very smart. When she saw Ding Xiaoxiang thinking about something, and thought about buying a large sea fishing boat that could feed fish for a long time, she knew what Ding Xiaoxiang was thinking about.

"Hehehe!"

"Do I need to say this? The fish caught in the sea are usually sold immediately, whether they are sold to you or Wu Weimin, they are almost never left overnight. But now there are sea fishing boats, if the fish can be kept alive, why rush to sell them?"

"You must keep some of the big and valuable fish in your hands, not to mention that during the New Year and other festivals, you must store some of them in your hands so that you can sell them at a higher price."

"Don't you need to care about such things?"

"The problem is that after the buyer buys the fish, the price of the fish sold in the restaurant is higher. You can sell it at a higher price. You will not make less money. You can even take this opportunity to raise the price and make more money."

Ding Xiaoxiang nodded openly and admitted that she was indeed thinking of this. In the past, Zhao Dahai basically sold the fish on the same day he came back from fishing at sea. He was worried that he could not keep the fish for too long. If the fish really died, it would be a big loss.

Now that a large sea fishing boat has been bought, the live tank of the fishing boat can be modified to a certain extent, and even the cold storage must be modified.

The fishing boat goes out to sea and is relatively close to some places. The cargo ship that pulls fish is also a place to raise fish.

Without worries, the fish can be kept for a longer time after being caught. It is definitely impossible to sell all of them at once. Every time you go out to sea, you have to choose a part of the fish to keep on the fishing boat. The valuable fish, especially every time during the festival, have to be kept on the fishing boat for a period of time before the festival. They will be sold when the festival is almost over. The price will be very high at this time. The same fish can make more money. This is definitely risky. If the fish dies during the breeding process, the loss is not a little bit. However, this risk is really not big. Anyone with experience can see which fish can be kept alive and which fish cannot be kept alive.

Yang Qin didn't know what to say.

Is Ding Xiaoxiang's words reasonable? It does make sense. If the price of the goods is high, it must be sold at a higher price. However, many of Liu Gang and Liu Lei's restaurants are regular customers, and it is impossible to raise the price of repeat customers casually.

Yang Qin had nothing to refute. She ignored this matter and waited for Ding Xiaoxiang and Liu Gang and Liu Lei to discuss it.

"Ding Xiaoxiang."

"The day after tomorrow is the day for us to start construction. You must make it clear to Zhao Dahai. Don't go fishing to make money on that day. We are waiting for you here!"

Yang Qin reminded Ding Xiaoxiang that she must tell Zhao Dahai about this matter. This is the day chosen. The next good day must be a month later. It can't be delayed for so long.

"Don't worry."

"Won't Dahai come back from fishing tomorrow? I will talk to him at that time. The day after tomorrow, just take this opportunity to rest."

"Just do this thing."

Ding Xiaoxiang nodded. She insisted on this matter by herself and must wait for Zhao Dahai to come back from the sea. This is a major event related to whether future generations can have a hen that lays golden eggs. It must be present with the men in the family. It is impossible for one person to do this.

"By the way!"

"Are we really doing this? Do you want to hire more people?"

Yang Qin hesitated. I have discussed with Ding Xiaoxiang whether to hold a ceremony when breaking ground and invite more people to make it more lively. But Ding Xiaoxiang thinks that there is no need for this. It will start the day after tomorrow. Even if we don't invite those well-known people in the town or the county, it will be more lively if we invite more people from both families.
