Chapter 888 Blocking the Door!
Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, Lei Da and several others worked together, together with Ding Dawen and the two people on the fishing boat. In more than an hour, two thousand kilograms of croaker and two thousand kilograms of mackerel were weighed and directly loaded onto the seafood truck.
Zhao Dahai and Ding Xiaoxiang saw Liu Lei and Yang Qin off.
Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, Lei Da and several others boarded the speedboat, and all the remaining croaker and mackerel were carried onto the fishing boat. The cold storage on the fishing boat was larger, and the cold storage, refrigerator and live cabin of the speedboat were emptied at the same time. When the weather is good, they can go out to sea to fish at any time.
"Brother Dawen."
"You have to stay on the fishing boat for a while."
"I'll send the food over later."
Ding Xiaoxiang waited for all the fish to be delivered to the fishing boat, and told Ding Dawen that someone had to stay on the fishing boat to watch over the fish.
Ding Dawen nodded, this was what he had to do.
Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, Lei Da and several others cleaned up the speedboat and checked it. It stopped very steadily. There was no problem with the cable and other things. They shouted to Ding Xiaoxiang to go home for dinner.
Ding Xiaoxiang went to the dock and left with Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou and returned to Zhao Dahai's home.
Ma Hongyu, Luo Lan and Xu Dongxue greeted Ding Xiaoxiang warmly when they saw her.
"Hey!"
"Aunts!"
"I'm really sorry, I need you to help!"
Ding Xiaoxiang walked in front of Ma Hongyu, Luo Lan and Xu Dongxue.
"Hey!"
"What are you talking about? We are having a meal together, how can anyone bother anyone?"
Ma Hongyu smiled and shook her head.
"Huh!"
"Aunt Cuihua said that our wages will be paid directly to us in the future."
"Otherwise, how could you be so enthusiastic?"
Xu Dongxue made a joke.
"Hee!"
"It will definitely go directly to the aunts. Uncle Shizhu and the others won't get a penny."
Ding Xiaoxiang laughed. Her grandmother Zhong Cuihua had told her about this a long time ago. She planned to do this. When the money was distributed at the end of the month, she would give it directly to Ma Hongyu, Xu Dongxue and Luo Lan.
"Isn't it like this?"
"Men just need to work hard and earn money. Why should they care about other things?"
"We will buy them good wine and food to serve them when they return home!"
"Whatever you want to do, do it. We agree. Why do you need money?"
Luo Lan came over and immediately joined in when he heard what Ding Xiaoxiang said.
Zhao Dahai walked into the kitchen and saw that a lot of food had been cooked. The chicken and fish had been cooked and cut. He took a few iron basins, put the rice, vegetables and soup, and sent them to Ding Dawen on the fishing boat at the dock.
"Brother Dawen."
"How does it feel to be alone on this fishing boat? Can you get used to it?"
Zhao Dahai looked around and saw that the captain and the two people working on the fishing boat had already left and went home, leaving Ding Dawen alone on the boat.
"What's there to get used to?"
"I grew up by the sea, and I'm not a landlubber."
"It's no problem to stay on the fishing boat."
"Zhao Dahai."
"Go back and have a good meal, and have a good sleep. You've been fishing for so long, you must be tired."
Ding Dawen urged Zhao Dahai to go home quickly.
Zhao Dahai nodded. Ding Dawen was Ding Xiaoxiang's cousin, but he was working for money now, so he couldn't go on the boat to watch over the fish on the fishing boat for him.
Zhao Dahai checked the fishing boat and found it was parked very steadily, with the anchor and cable pulling steadily. He went to the dock and rode his tricycle home.
Ding Dawen watched Zhao Dahai leave on his tricycle and go home. He returned to the cab and ate his meal in big mouthfuls. After finishing his meal, he immediately went to check on the croaker and mackerel in the cold storage on the fishing boat. There was no problem with the temperature. Then he returned to the cab, brewed a cup of strong tea, drank it in small sips, and planned to stay up all night.
Zhao Dahai returned home. The food was ready. The table was set up in the yard. Several families gathered together to eat. It was very lively.
The wind and waves on the sea were relatively strong, but it did not rain. Now it was just evening. When the wind blew over, it was mixed with the water vapor of the sea water on the sea surface. It was very cool and very comfortable.
After Zhao Dahai finished his meal, he looked at the time and saw that it was already eight o'clock in the evening. He called Ding Xiaoxiang, who was talking with his grandmother Zhong Cuihua, the second grandmother Huang Jintao, and Ma Hongyu. The two had a long-standing relationship, but they were not married. They could not stay too late. They went home early so that Ding Chongshan and Zhang Li would be more relieved.
After sending Ding Xiaoxiang home, Zhao Dahai saw Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, Lei Da and a few others talking, drinking and smoking with his second grandfather Zhao Shi.
Zhao Dahai pulled a stool and sat down. This is the habit of people who go out to sea. No matter how tired they are, they get together to eat and drink. They know when it starts, but they really don’t know when it ends.
"Zhao Dahai."
"I just went to the dock to check. There is no problem with the speedboat and the fishing boat."
"But the wind and waves are quite strong. It seems that we can’t go fishing on the artificial islands and reefs tomorrow!"
Zhong Shizhu picked up the wine bowl in front of him and took a sip. When Zhao Dahai sent Ding Xiaoxiang home, he rode a motorcycle to the dock and saw that the speedboat and the fishing boat were parked very steadily. There were fish on the boats, but Ding Dawen stayed in the cab all the time, so there was no need to worry about someone stealing the fish.
Zhong Shiban stayed at the pier for ten minutes and looked at the waves on the sea. With years of experience, he knew that the waves at the pier were more than one meter high. The waves in the sea far away from the shore like artificial islands and reefs must be very strong, which is definitely not suitable for fishing.
Zhao Dahai didn't drink too much wine. He picked up a bowl of fish soup, drank half of it, put it down and nodded. If there are already one-meter waves at the pier, the waves in other places are bigger. It is definitely impossible to go out to sea for fishing. You may be able to go out for a run in a closer place, but you can't go to a farther place.
"Let's have a good sleep tomorrow and talk about other things after we wake up."
"If the weather is good, we will go out to sea. If the weather is bad, we will rest for one or two more days."
"Money must be earned, but you have to go out to sea when the weather is suitable."
Zhao Dahai didn't think about it and immediately decided to rest tomorrow and wait until the weather is suitable to go out to sea for fishing.
Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, Lei Dayou, and his second grandfather Zhao Shi, ate, drank, chatted, and smoked until three o'clock in the morning before they went home.
Dashi Village.
Eight o'clock in the morning.
Shi Jiehua finished breakfast and was about to go out, but he didn't expect that as soon as the yard door opened, three people blocked his way.
"Yo!"
"Boss Liu, Boss Xu, Boss Chen, why are you three blocking my door so early in the morning?"
"Have you had breakfast? How about having something to eat at my house?"
As soon as Shi Jiehua saw Liu Baojiang, Xu Fu, and Chen Hua, he knew what they wanted to do when they came to him. They must have come for the fish that he and Zhao Dahai caught on their sea fishing boat.
Shi Jiehua pretended to be confused and pretended not to know the purpose of Liu Baojiang and the other two.
"Hmph!"
"Shi Jiehua!"
"Why are you pretending to be confused?"
"You know why we came here to find you!"
Liu Baojiang didn't beat around the bush. He had been doing business with Shi Jiehua for several years and was very familiar with him.
"He Ying came to see you?"
"Why did he come to see you? Don't we know?"
"Shi Jiehua."
"I have to tell you that you and Zhao Dahai's sea fishing boat can't sell the fish to He Ying."
Xu Fu said more directly.
"I'm saying, what's going on with you guys? Did you send someone to my door? You all know that He Ying came to see me!"
Shi Jiehua didn't expect that Liu Baojiang and the others knew that He Ying came to see him.
"Ha!"
"Who made us run into someone we met!"
Chen Hua laughed loudly. He knew about this by accident.
They were all in the seafood business, buying fish, shrimps and crabs at the nearby docks. They were very familiar with each other. When they saw He Ying coming to find Shi Jiehua, they knew what was going on. It must be for the fish caught by Shi Jiehua and Zhao Dahai's sea fishing boat.
This was a big deal and could not be easily let go. They immediately told Liu Baojiang and Xu Fu that they must find Shi Jiehua and must strive to get those fish.
Unfortunately, Shi Jiehua had not been at home in the past few days. They came several times but did not meet him. When they came to the dock early this morning, they found that Shi Jiehua had bought a sea fishing boat.
Liu Baojiang, Xu Fu and Chen Hua knew that Shi Jiehua must have returned and must be at home, so they came to him immediately.
"Boss Liu, Boss Xu, Boss Chen, you are all people who have done business with me, and have done business with me for many years."
"What kind of person am I? Don't you know it yet?"
"The fish caught by the sea fishing boat that Zhao Dahai and I cooperated with are actually the fish caught by people who have booked the fishing spots on the sea fishing boat."
"Only when Shi Zhongwei takes the sea fishing boat out to sea to fish for croakers, for example, are the fish caught by himself, but most of the time, these fish are caught by people who have booked the fishing spots."
"The number of fish caught on each trip out to sea, the type of fish caught, the size of the fish, and whether I can accept the fish caught by those who have booked the fishing spots are all unknown."
"How could I agree to sell it to He Ying or to you now?"
Shi Jiehua told the truth directly.
"What's the big deal? No matter what kind of fish it is, no matter how big or small it is, or how many there are, or even whether you catch it or not, it doesn't matter."
"Anyway, as long as you catch the fish, you can sell it to us, right?"
"Isn't the price easy to negotiate?"
Liu Baojiang waved his hand, took out a cigarette from his pocket, flicked one and handed it to Shi Jiehua.
Shi Jiehua took the cigarette, but didn't smoke it, and clamped it on his ear.
"Boss Liu."
"No matter how many times you come to me, this is impossible."
"Before the sea fishing boat goes out to sea and catches fish and returns to the dock, I will never agree to sell it to any of you."
"One is that I don't know how many fish the sea fishing boat can catch now, and I don't know if the fish caught by the people who have booked the fishing spot will be sold to me."
"Another is that when these fish return to the dock, anyone who wants to buy them can come to me, so maybe I can sell them at a higher price and make more money!"
"I said the same thing to He Ying, and now I'm saying the same thing to you."
Shi Jiehua directly spilled the beans without beating around the bush with Xu Fu and the others.
Liu Baojiang, Chen Hua and Xu Fu sighed in their hearts. After Shi Jiehua said so much, they knew that it was absolutely impossible for him to agree to sell the fish caught to them now.
"Captain Shi."
"The sea fishing boats, including the sea fishing boats led by Shi Zhongwei and He Jian for several weeks, must notify us as soon as they return from fishing for croakers."
Liu Baojiang stared at Shi Jiehua. He and Xu Fuchenghua must have hoped to negotiate the deal before the sea fishing boats returned to the dock, and there would be no problem even if they agreed to a higher price.
But Shi Jiehua refused and insisted on waiting for the sea fishing boats to return to the dock. Now the initiative was in Shi Jiehua's hands, and there was no way.
"Ha!"
"Boss Liu."
"Do you need to remind me of this?"
"Didn't I just say that? I hope more people will come to grab the fish from my sea fishing boat, so that I can sell it at a higher price and make more money."
Shi Jiehua laughed loudly and nodded in agreement. He was not joking. When the sea fishing boat comes back, he will definitely call Liu Baojiang, Xu Fu and Chenghua, including many other people who are in this business. The more people come, the better it will be for him.
Shi Jiehua chatted with Liu Baoqiang, Xu Fu and Chenghua for a while, smoked a cigarette, left in a hurry, and strode towards the dock. Tomorrow, he will take Gao Zhicheng and others to the big croaker fishing spot to catch big croaker. Some things are not ready yet, so he has to hurry up.
"Liu Baojiang."
"Chen Hua."
"It seems that there is really no way. We can only wait for Shi Jiehua's sea fishing boat to return to the dock to see what kind of fishing boat it is, and compete with others to see if we can catch these fish!"
Xu Fu watched Shi Jiehua hurried away, and soon he could not see his back, his face was very serious.
The sea fishing boat that Zhao Dahai and Shi Jiehua cooperated with is now very famous, and it has caught a lot of fish. It has long been famous in the whole circle.
Everyone who is engaged in the purchase of seafood is eyeing these fish.
Want to buy fish?
No problem!
Waiting for the sea fishing boat to return to the dock, everyone will come to compete for the highest bidder!
This is definitely a great benefit for Shi Jiehua and Zhao Dahai, but it is not so wonderful for the purchasers like themselves.
It's not that you can't make money, you can still make money. If you can't make money, no one will be stupid enough to pay for the fish caught by Zhao Dahai and Shi Jiehua's sea fishing boats, right?
But it is 100% certain that even if they can catch the fish caught by Zhao Dahai and Shi Jiehua's boats, the price is relatively high, which means that the money they earn will be reduced, and may even be greatly reduced.
"What can we do about this?"
"If Shi Jiehua or Zhao Dahai insists on doing this, we really have no way to deal with it."
Liu Baojiang sighed.
"Let's go! Let's go!"
"It's useless for us to stay here. Let's just leave and go back to discuss what kind of strategy is and how much money we need to prepare to catch the croakers caught by Shi Jiehua or Shi Zhongwei and He Jian's sea fishing boats."
Chen Hua was very helpless, waved his hand, and left quickly with Liu Baojiang and Xu Fu.
