It is abnormal not to follow the trend.
Anyone who has the ability can make money.
If A Guang has the ability to earn, then he will earn his.
The two of them went to the shipyard and couldn't stay long. It was too late to go out today. The sun sets early in the winter. At 4 o'clock, the sun entered the clouds and was no longer visible.
After the sun disappeared, the corresponding cold wind became stronger and the howling became more violent. Ye Yaodong was blinded by the cold wind when he was outside. After all, the shipyard was built along the coast.
He had seen the progress of the renovation of his cargo ship and said that it would only take ten days and a half to complete. He was also overjoyed. This meant that it would be able to leave before the end of the month, which was earlier than expected.
Aguang also looked at the drawings of the five boats he ordered, and asked Director Shen to make a reference plan first, and he would come back in two days.
He also had to go back and discuss with his father the appropriate price for the order. He had just asked about the approximate price of the desired specifications and corresponding materials.
Of course, the specifics must be drawn according to the requirements, and the required equipment must be listed clearly before calculation. It is impossible to rush over and take a look and make a decision. It still needs to be discussed.
The two of them rode their bicycles back before it got dark.
Ye Yaodong was cursing and cursing on the road, blaming A Guang for taking too long in the afternoon and causing them to be in such a hurry, so they only stayed for a short while and had to go back in a hurry.
"Come back tomorrow. It's been rough these two days anyway, so it's hard to go out."
"It's getting cold, and the wind here is really strong..."
Ye Yaodong didn't even finish a sentence. The wind blew and sand filled his eyes. He could only half-squint, and he could only stop his bicycle to slow down.
"Tmd, next time you go out, you have to put on the toad glasses. This road is too dilapidated and full of dirt. When the wind blows, it will blow up and you can't see the road clearly."
The wind wasn't that strong during the day, which was okay, but now that the sun has gone down, it's getting really windy.
"You'd better stop talking, dirt has gone into your mouth."
Ye Yaodong cursed a few more curse words, and after the gust of wind passed, he got back on his bicycle and rode quickly.
They were both gravel and dirt roads, and they both chose to ride on the two relatively flat tire tracks pressed out by trucks on both sides, which was less bumpy.
In the next few days, both of them went to the shipyard frequently. Ye Yaodong had a ship built there, and Aguang was also focused on building one here, so he would let his father make his own decision.
After three days of running back and forth, Aguang couldn't even decide on his own harvest boat.
It was made of all steel, but he couldn't bear to part with it, so he could only make it half steel and half wood. He also wanted to refer to the 34-meter one in Ye Yaodong's hand for all the equipment inside, and thought it was enough.
After all, it is better to follow the path traveled by predecessors than to cross the river by feeling the stones. If you can copy it, of course you can copy it directly.
A Guang also asked Ye Yaodong for his opinion.
Ye Yaodong only talked about his own feelings. For him, he was very satisfied, but ordering a fishing boat was a big deal and let Aguang decide on his own.
After all the details were discussed and the price was discussed, Aguang was a little hesitant because it was too expensive and he couldn't make the decision...
The one he wanted to order was much more expensive than the 35,000 that Ye Yaodong bought before.
Dongzi originally asked for a price of 38,000 in the city. Later, because he was familiar with the county, the shipyard in the county also said that it would give him a discount, even if it was 35,000, so he chose to book in the county.
Not only are the materials used here better, shipyards are also very popular, and the cost of materials in popular industries is of course high, and over the past year, the cost has increased even more.
When the price quoted was 48,000, his heart was trembling, and he refused to pay back the counter-offer, refusing to bargain.
So he was confused again.
48,000 is not 4.8 yuan, and the money he has on hand is not enough to really book it. Although his father has shared half of his income every year for the past three years, it is not that much.
It mainly makes money from 50% of the shares of the Harvest. Last year, it bought many boats. In fact, half of the profits were spent. Although it was earned back, the sum of the several boats was not worth the Harvest.
Earned.
He shared with his father that although he had money on hand, he really didn't have 48,000 yuan.
The money he earned here this year has not been divided yet. It would be enough if it were divided, but it would also mean that he would have to spend his savings.
That's too distressing. More than 40,000 yuan is enough for him to spend his whole life retiring without having to do anything.
He has to actually pay from his own pocket, while Dongzi takes a direct loan and the bank provides the money.
The money was transferred directly to the shipyard's account without even touching it. I didn't even have time to feel bad. It was gone after just one glance. It was originally for nothing, so it definitely didn't hurt that much.
There's a big difference here.
He was a little entangled and hesitant, and Ye Yaodong didn't let him make up his mind, just letting him make his own decision.
So after visiting the shipyard for three consecutive days, Aguang unexpectedly stopped eating again and became silent.
When Ye Yaodong saw that he didn't come to look for him to go to the shipyard again, he knew that he was still struggling and hadn't made up his mind yet, so he didn't care.
He was happy that he no longer had to run to the shipyard.
He has been running for three days in a row. He already knows the progress of his fishing boat, so there is no need to run again.
It was because Aguang had been coming to see him these past two days that he thought of going with him a few times. Otherwise, in such a cold weather, he would only go once on the first day. Who would be full enough to go every day?
Drinking the northwest wind and eating dirt all the way are enough.
And when he went out for several days in a row, he suddenly stopped running out again, and his father was even curious.
After breakfast, I saw that he was still sitting in front of the stove, lighting the fire and reading the newspaper, occupying the father's seat, so I couldn't help but ask.
"Why don't you go out yet? A Guang has been looking at it for so many days, so he should make a decision, right?"
"Set a yarn, there will be no sound."
"Why are you silent? Didn't you say we were negotiating the price? It's more than 40,000 yuan. He and his father can probably get it together, right? They haven't made less in the past few months. They also have seven or eight
The boat is collecting rent."
"He said he should think about it again. 48,000 yuan is not a small amount, and the factory doesn't bargain for a penny. Compared to the boat I have now, it's already 10,000 yuan more expensive. It's such a difference, so it's normal to be reluctant to part with it.
.”
"Didn't you say the material would be better?"
"That's also expensive."
"Can't I pay a deposit?"
"Then we don't need to pay the balance? We ask for half of the deposit, which would cost more than 20,000 yuan, which is quite a lot."
Ye's father thought about it and asked him to pay. Even if he had money, it would be heartbreaking.
"Then these days have been in vain? Why don't we ask him not to order any fishing boats, but just order one of your fishing boats? Doesn't he just want to go it alone? Don't listen to his father, what are you doing?
You are messing around with the fresh boats, and you don’t know who to sell the goods to when the time comes, so you think everyone has your way?"
"It's hard to say. The market conditions vary from year to year. Right now, the traffic is not good and the shelf life of seafood is limited. If in a year or two, the road conditions are better and the transportation conditions are better, we will definitely not have to worry."
In inland areas, there are no places to eat fresh food. After the transportation conditions and technology are improved, are you still worried about slow sales?
Moreover, with the development, there will only be more and more processing plants here, and there will be more varieties of fish products. Where can I worry about selling dried seafood?
However, he didn't know what would happen in the next two years. He had been very confused in his previous life and only knew the general trend.
A Guang has not made a decision. How can he directly make a decision for others? If the goods are not sold well, won't he have to complain?
He still has to deal with the aftermath, so isn’t he sick?
Just let him choose.
Instead of booking a harvest boat, as his father said, wouldn't it be better to book a harvest boat and control it independently?
There is no risk, since he has the backing up, so there is no need to worry about selling.
After a few years, when the market becomes more mature and the funds on hand become stronger, it will not be too late to consider acquiring fresh ships. It is not too late to build a few more ships by yourself, or even a whole fleet.
"The rice has to be eaten one bite at a time. I don't know what my in-laws are thinking. They also said that they would order two more harvest numbers and deliver the goods to Aguang's fresh harvest ship. So now, their family will have to pay for it.
Come out with 100,000 yuan?"
Father Ye himself felt his flesh aching just thinking about it. He couldn't imagine why Father Pei would be so radical. Is this the sweet spot of making a lot of money this year?
"It's hard to say whether their family has 100,000 yuan in total, so how dare they spend it all at once to order three items?"
Ye Yaodong also felt that they had taken a step too far, but he didn't have much to say and only asked him and his father to think it over carefully.
"Perhaps I was stimulated by my 200,000 loan to buy five boats, which makes me a little irrational? And the income from collecting fresh boats during this period? Do you think they can do it?"
Maybe it's really possible, and it may also involve some face issues.
Thinking you just need to pay a deposit anyway?
Who would have imagined that if half of the deposit is required, then you will have to pay around 50,000 yuan in one fell swoop, which is almost equivalent to having to pay more than half of what you have earned in the past four months.
Who doesn’t hesitate?
"If A Guang comes over later, tell him not to listen to his father, just ask him to buy another one like the Harvest Number, it will be enough for him. He has just started doing it anyway, and he can't move forward.
It’s too big.”
"Tell him, you are his father-in-law."
"Okay, then when he comes, I will tell him that his father also took the wrong medicine and wanted to have such a big surgery all at once."
Ye Yaodong shook the newspaper in his hand and continued to read by the light of the stove. A large pot of hot water was boiling in the pot, so it was not wasted.
It was early in the morning, and the sky outside looked gray, and the wind whistled through the windows. The weather was worse than yesterday, and we couldn't even see the sun.
This kind of weather is suitable for lying in bed, but his biological clock has been developed. Early in the morning, there must be various noises outside. His father also got up extra early, and he couldn't sleep anymore.
.
Father Ye thought about talking to A Guang, but didn't go anywhere. He originally wanted to take a look outside the pier, but now he had to stay at home.
It's just that he waited all morning and didn't see Ah Guang. Seeing that the temperature had risen a little after lunch, he simply went to his place and asked Ye Yaodong if he wanted to go with him.
Ye Yaodong sat there motionless and just shook his head, "If you don't want to go, you don't have to go out of your way. Just wait for the other person to come and then chat. It's so important to come to the door on a cold day."
.”
"It's really important."
"It's quite important. If he makes a decision, he will come to me."
"Okay, then I'll go out to the pier and take a look. I've been stuck at home for a week with this damn weather..."
Father Ye wrapped his scarf around his head, put on his gloves, and walked out.
But not even 10 minutes later, he saw his father come in with A Guang.
"Just when I walked out, I happened to meet A Guang coming over. Fortunately, I didn't miss it. Let's go to the inner room to talk."
A Guang said to Ye Yaodong: "I didn't come over because it was too cold in the morning. I just wanted to come over after lunch."
Ye Yaodong also followed them to the room, "You said yesterday that you should think about it carefully, so I thought you would definitely not come here in the morning."
"It's too expensive. I discussed it with my father and thought that when I get home, I can go to the shipyard at home and see if it can be cheaper? And I will stay at home for most of next year and order directly in the county.
It’s better, there’s no need to be in such a hurry now…”
"Yes, there's no need to be in such a hurry." Father Ye quickly answered.
"Your dad is just too anxious. Why does he have to ask you to order a fresh boat? You are planning to do it alone now. Why don't you just order one like the Harvest boat? You can make money just like that. At the beginning, don't worry about it.
It’s too big a step, let’s make money first.”
"You're so ruthless in ordering three boats at once. That's 100,000 yuan less, and you have to eat one bite at a time."
"I didn't go out this morning. I wanted to tell you this when I was at home. Let's take it one boat at a time. This boat is so expensive, so there's no need to spend such a huge sum of money."
"Dongzi also booked one boat at a time before. Except for those small boats, how could anyone book several boats at once? This time, I have a bank loan. Don't pay for it yourself. Just think that you have 200,000, and it's all
The flowers are gone.”
Ye Yaodong also quickly agreed, "Yes, if a bank hadn't provided an interest-free loan of 200,000 yuan, I would definitely not have spent a lot of money to order so many ships at once. The cargo ships have just been bought, and I will definitely not have any other ships within two years.
Superfluous thoughts."
A Guang said: "I know that too, so I didn't order it. I just ran back and forth to learn more about it, and also wanted to use it as a reference."
"When I came back, I kept telling my dad, don't buy so much now, it's too much money to pay all at once. Even if it's a deposit, it's still a lot. We can come one by one."
Father Ye said: "Yes, you have to take your time. There is no need to rush. Money is earned slowly."
A Guang also looked at Ye Yaodong, "So, when I get home next month, I will first ask if there is an interest-free loan at home. If so, it would be best. I will also go for one and see how much I can borrow."
"It would be best if I can be like Dongzi with nothing. If not, I will go to the shipyard to order a boat of my own and not mess with my father."
"It's best to deliver the goods in the second half of the year. Then we can follow you and make a lot of money with Dongzi."
Ye Yaodong said: "It's a good idea for you to plan this way. It's much better than what your father said before."
"Well, I just don't have that much money. I just want to earn two more years, and I can't spend all my money on it. The premise of buying so many boats is that you don't drain your family."
"Pretty much, I always take out part of the savings on hand, and I definitely won't put it all into it. No matter what I do, I definitely have to leave some room for myself."
"That's right."
Father Ye said cheerfully, "Just think about it. I was worried that you would discuss it with your father and just go ahead and order it."
"That's not the case. When I heard the quotations for the three boats, I shivered and immediately backed down. We came back at noon yesterday to discuss it, and we came back to discuss it again last night. He also felt that he should go home first and then consider it after he gets home.
"
Ye Yaodong patted him on the shoulder, "We have to be more sensible. The two ships we have in partnership with Azheng and Xiaoxiao will be delivered after we return."
"Yes, there will be two more boats soon. The four of us will share the shares equally, which is equivalent to one person getting half a boat more."
"You paid for this yourself, right? This half of the boat belongs to you, not your father?"
"Of course, this is a partnership between you and I. Of course it's my own money."
"That's good."
"They were still hesitant at the time. They felt that booking two ships was too much and too expensive. They were afraid that they would be under pressure to pay the final payment. Now they are smiling crookedly."
Ye Yaodong also smiled, "Yeah, it's thanks to me that I pushed them, otherwise they would still be hesitating. Just one is enough, and now they are all laughing."
Father Ye said: "It seems that our team will grow again next year."
"Definitely, I've made money. If I just promote it when I get home, people from all over the world will know about it."
Aguang smiled and said: "Then the number of people will double next year?"
He shrugged and said nothing.
Let’s talk about things in the coming year, this year is not over yet.
A Guang asked again: "Have you decided when to go back?"
"Don't you mean after New Year's Day? Then we'll have to check the wind and waves and find a good weather before we go."
"Yes, the weather looks even worse today. It's gray and windy."
"It seems there will be sleet and snow tomorrow, so don't go out tomorrow. I'll go buy some more groceries for the house later. Who knows how long this damn weather will last."
Originally, he was thinking that he could earn a little more this month before going back. When he settled the accounts at the end of last month, he was thinking wonderfully.
Thinking that there are still about 40 days before he can go home, it shouldn't be a problem for him to earn more than a hundred thousand.
tmd, after entering December, the weather is either gloomy or windy every day. Even when the sun is shining, there are gusts of cold wind. It is already the middle to late period, and we have only been out to sea for five or six days.
It will rain and snow tomorrow, and he doesn't know how many days it will last. His money will be wasted.
"Let's go now. I was originally thinking of buying some chicken, duck, ribs, and glutinous rice balls. Tomorrow is the winter solstice, so I'm going to buy it now to avoid having to get up early to buy vegetables tomorrow."
"Crap, the winter solstice is tomorrow? So soon?"
"Isn't it? Summer comes out, but it's winter solstice in the blink of an eye. I don't know how tall the three children at home have grown. Such small children look the same every day. More than half a year has passed, and they probably don't recognize me anymore. Hey
.”
"I'll make a phone call home later, and then go buy groceries. I have something to do in the afternoon."
Ye Yaodong also missed his wife and children at home. The weather will be bad tomorrow and he may not be able to go out. He took advantage of the fact that it is neither raining nor snowing to call in advance.
"Okay, my two sons can call them daddy and can leave, but I don't know what they look like anymore." After finishing speaking, Aguang sighed again.
"Let's take a look. Otherwise, we can go back directly after New Year's Day if the weather is good. Anyway, everyone has earned enough after being out for so long. As the New Year is approaching, everyone is homesick. The weather here has always been like this. What's the point?
It’s better to go back early.”
"I think so too. Let's go back after New Year's Day when the weather is nice. If you have money or not, go home to celebrate the New Year. After working for more than half a year, you have to have a good rest. It's not too much to go home and lie down for half a month.
.”
The two of them were talking and walking out.
This kind of gloomy and windy weather is not suitable for riding a bicycle. The bicycle is light and the front of the car will sway around.
The farmer's market is not far from their side.
Father Ye also followed up and spoke, "It's better to go back early. Then we have to talk to the workers in the next two days and make them happy. They are also looking forward to going home every day."
"Tell them, they just happened to take advantage of their free time to buy some specialties or something, so as not to be temporarily blinded. You can't go out every day in this damn weather. What if it suddenly snows heavily..."
Ye Yaodong glared at his father, "Can you please stop the crow's mouth? It will obviously be raining and snowing tomorrow."
"God bless, the weather will be fine in the future."
“I was still scolding you just now, now I’m asking for God’s blessing…”
"Dongzi, don't you still want to buy some gold jewelry for your mother and the others? Don't forget, you have to buy this in advance. If you forget it temporarily, there is no place to buy it." Father Ye lowered his head, pretending to be normal.
explain.
Ye Yaodong turned his head and glanced at his father. Don't think that if he lowered his head, he wouldn't be able to see the expectant look in his father's eyes.
He figured it out with his toes, which was a reminder to him.
"I remember."
"When are you going to ask me to come with you? I'll help you look at it together." Father Ye continued to look down at the road.
"Do you also want to spend money to buy it for my mother? Then buy a pair of gold bracelets for Xiaojiu."
"ah?"
Now he finally looked up.
Ye Yaodong looked at his father's astonished expression, "Are you going to buy gold for them too?"
"Where did I get the money? I didn't even receive a salary when I came out! Where did I get the money to buy it!"
A Guang said with a smile: "Whenever you go shopping, call me and I will buy them some gifts and take them back."
Ye Yaodong stopped teasing his father.
"Okay, let's wait until after the winter solstice, then we can go out for a walk together."
Father Ye didn't say a word and just listened to the two of them chatting.
However, at noon, the post office nearest to them was not open, and they could not make calls. If they wanted to make a call, they had to go to a supply and marketing cooperative farther away.
Ye Yaodong thought that he had to go to the Chamber of Commerce in the afternoon and there was no time, so he wanted to go buy groceries first and ask his father to go back later after shopping, and then call home to report that he was safe.
He could wait until tomorrow to go out and make phone calls, which happened to be the winter solstice tomorrow.
When he arrived at the farmer's market to buy vegetables, Father Ye also had a lot of ideas. He had to buy this, he had to buy that, and during the winter solstice tomorrow, he had to make the workers eat better and so on.
Ye Yaodong let his father choose what to buy, and he was only responsible for following behind with a sack to load the food and pay for it.
This is quite a lot of rations for more than 20 people, plus there will definitely be a decent table to fill during the winter solstice tomorrow.
When his father went out with him, he thoughtfully brought two sacks and a pole with him so that he could carry them back easily.
I also prepared a copy of the same equipment for A Guang.
When they returned home after shopping for groceries, his father picked up one load and Aguang picked up another. He walked beside them with his hands in his pockets.
A Guang said depressedly: "If I had known I would have to buy so much, I would have called my dad out."
Father Ye said: "You are so filial."
"Dongzi is more filial than me."
"Sure, I'll take my dad to buy gold later."
Father Ye glanced at Ye Yaodong. He was a little bit ready to give up, but when he heard about gold, he felt energetic all over.
After returning home, Ye Yaodong immediately took out the password box and counted 2,000 yuan.
Father Ye's eyes lit up when he saw it, "Are you going out to buy gold now?"
Ye Yaodong glanced at his father and said, "I'm going to buy a building."
The expression on Father Ye's face disappeared instantly, "Then why are you going?"
"Go to the Chamber of Commerce."
"Then why do you still need to bring so much money?"
"Take it to build a building."
"What are you talking about? Be clear."
He put the lockbox away and explained helplessly.
"The Vancouver Chamber of Commerce has been registered with the government, and the land it applied to buy has been approved. It's time to pay the money. The money raised is not enough to build the chamber of commerce. I will donate 2,000 yuan and let several other sponsors do the rest.
Split evenly."
"How come it's so easy for you to get this money? You haven't done anything, you just give it when you say it, and it's 2,000 yuan when you pay it back. How much gold can it buy with such a big deal? What kind of chamber of commerce is this? How long did it take for you to pay so much?
The money goes out..."
"Don't make any noise, I am sensible."
"Then why do you give so much?"
"Where do you think the businessmen I'm looking for come from? After making so much money, do you have to give back to the Chamber of Commerce and help a little bit? Is it also good for you to help the Chamber of Commerce develop better?"
"Then why don't you set up a Fujian Chamber of Commerce?" Father Ye thought his idea was a good one after he finished speaking, "Can you set up one? Yours is pretty decent too?"
"Someone has to do it? Do I have that free time? It was the people in Vancouver who brought me in, so I don't need to do anything. They are also very keen on teaming up and like to bring people from one place to the other.
People come together.”
"I have brought more than 200 people from the village myself, so what else do I need to establish a Fujian Chamber of Commerce? Is it necessary? Isn't it enough to have so many people sign up for the group?"
Father Ye thought about it, they already had a large group of people here, there was no need to recruit outsiders and add to the chaos.
After Ye Yaodong hid the money on his body, he said, "I'm leaving."
"Come back early for dinner."
"knew."
He arrived on time, and when he arrived, a bunch of people were already sitting in the room.
There have been strong winds and waves these days, and few fishing boats have gone out to sea, unless they are larger boats of thirty or forty meters that can withstand the wind and waves.
So there were quite a lot of people here today, and the whole room was full. Some were sitting and some were standing. It was because of the bad weather that everyone was at home.
And tomorrow is the winter solstice, so I need to take some rest and prepare for the festival.
"Hey, our vice president is finally here."
Chapter completed!
