Rebirth of Fishing Village: Starting from Hua Axiang in Jiehu Village

Chapter 926 Eating Dumplings Everyday

Night falls.

The sea was pitch black.

Ding Dawen walked into the cab with sweat all over his forehead.

Zhao Dahai's speedboat had left for Langtou Village almost two hours ago, but he could not drive the fishing boat back immediately. All the fish had to be properly processed. First, all the living groupers had to be put into the live water tank, and it was necessary to confirm that there was no problem with the live water tank and that there was no problem with the fish.

Another thing is that Zhao Dahai caught some giant croaker on this trip. These fish do not need to be raised, so each one must be neatly placed in the cold storage to avoid ruining the appearance.

"The groupers weighing three thousand jin or almost four thousand jin are all quite large. Some are red-spotted, most are blue-spotted, and some are sesame-spotted."

"The croakers are all big, most of them weigh 30 to 40 kilograms, and there should be about 5,000 to 6,000 kilograms in here."

Ding Dawen walked into the cab and saw that both Shimen Min and Zhao Shi were staring at him with wide eyes, wanting to know how many fish Zhao Dahai had caught this trip.

"Dry!"

"Is this too much?"

"Four thousand kilograms of grouper, plus five or six thousand kilograms of croaker?"

"No wonder Zhao Dahai and the others came back so late?"

Shi Guangming knew that Zhao Dahai had caught a lot of fish this time when he saw bag after bag of fish being lifted from the speedboat onto the fishing boat. But when he heard Ding Dawen say such a number, he couldn't help but curse.

Zhao Dahai caught so many fish in more than just one or two trips.

Not every trip out to sea can catch a lot of fish. This is not just eating dumplings occasionally, but eating dumplings every day, and eating until the stomach is full.

"Hey hey hey!"

"I don't know how many times I've heard that Zhao Dahai is great at fishing. Now that I've actually seen him, I realize that all those rumors are unreliable."

"Zhao Dahai's fishing skills are far better than what is said, and much better."

Ding Dawen picked up his thermos cup with one hand and drank the water in big gulps.

Ding Dawen drank a few sips of water and drove the fishing boat back to the Langtou Village Pier. Zhao Dahai had just said that he would not go out to sea to fish tomorrow and would take a day off. His fishing boat had to go back to the pier to sell fish.

Langtou Village.

The speedboat driven by Zhao Dahai docked at the pier, cleaned up, and rinsed it with water.

Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou left the speedboat and went back to their homes.

Zhao Dahai returned home and called Ding Xiaoxiang to tell her that he had come back from fishing. The fish he had caught in the past two days included black porgy, croaker and grouper, which totaled more than 13,000 kilograms. The exact number would have to be weighed before he could know.

Zhao Dahai did not call Liu Lei. He was just out at sea fishing. Ding Xiaoxiang was in charge of selling the fish. It was Ding Xiaoxiang who decided when to call Liu Gang, Liu Lei or Yang Qin.

After Zhao Dahai finished his phone call with Ding Xiaoxiang, he immediately ate, took a shower and went to bed. This trip out to sea lasted longer than the previous ones, and he was already extremely tired. He lay down, closed his eyes and fell asleep immediately.

Shijiao Village.

Ding Xiaoxiang put down the phone and immediately saw her mother Zhang Li looking at her.

"Zhao Dahai just returned home now?"

Zhang Li looked at Ding Xiaoxiang.

Ding Xiaoxiang nodded and said that she had been fishing for a long time today and caught a lot of fish, which is why she came back so late.

Zhang Li asked and found out that the total amount of black porgy, croaker and grouper caught by Zhao Dahai in the past two days exceeded 13,000 kilograms.

"With so many fish, can Liu Gang, Liu Lei and Wu Weimin catch them all?"

Zhang Li was very happy to hear that Zhao Dahai had caught so many fish, but she immediately thought of this matter.

Zhao Dahai had caught a lot of fish before, but now he catches even more fish. One reason is that he bought a bigger speedboat so he can travel farther. The other reason is that now Zhao Dahai is not the only one fishing on the speedboat, but four people in total. This is the key to his ability to catch so many fish every day when he goes out to sea in recent times.

Zhao Dahai has been doing business with Liu Gang and Liu Lei's Hongyun Restaurant and Wu Weimin since the very beginning. There was no problem when the fish caught were not too many in the past, but now that so many fish are caught every time they go out to sea, these two restaurants may not be able to take it all.

"mom."

“This matter is indeed a bit difficult.”

"Liu Gang and Liu Lei's Hongyun Restaurant is doing very well. They sell a lot of fish every day, plus what Boss Wu Weimin said."

"We need a lot of fish every day, but we may not be able to catch all the fish that Zhao Dahai has caught now."

Ding Xiaoxiang has actually been thinking about this matter these two days.

Take this trip that Zhao Dahai took out to sea for example, where he caught more than 13,000 kilograms of various types of fish.

It is impossible for the Hongyun Restaurant owned by Liu Gang and Liu Lei, father and son, and the private restaurant of Wu Weimin to sell two or three thousand kilograms of fish a day. Even if they can really sell it, they cannot do so every day.

"I'm thinking about whether I should find another sales channel."

“But this is a bit troublesome. It’s not that we can’t find it, but once we find it, we have to have a stable supply.”

"It is definitely impossible for Zhao Dahai to catch so many fish every day, but it is not difficult as long as we control the quantity of the catch."

Ding Xiaoxiang was not worried at all about not being able to find buyers. The fish caught by Zhao Dahai were all top-quality goods and could be easily found. The only problem was how much goods had to be supplied every day.

The key to this matter is not whether Zhao Dahai caught enough fish. The real key lies in how Liu Gang, Liu Lei and Wu Weimin view this matter.

In order to ensure a stable supply, it is definitely necessary to negotiate with new buyers on how much fish to provide every day, for example, 500 kilograms, or 1,000 kilograms. In this case, you must ensure that the remaining 500 kilograms or 1,000 kilograms of fish can be provided to Liu Gang, Liu Lei or Wu Weimin.

Wu Gang, Liu Lei and Wu Weimin will definitely be affected.

However, Liu Gang, Liu Lei and Wu Weimin had to start their business early and ensure their fish first.

He and Zhao Dahai bought a large fishing boat, which could raise more fish, and even provide more space for the cold storage, so that the fish caught could be frozen fresh. But no matter what, the fish caught had to be sold, and it was impossible to keep them on his fishing boat for a long time, waiting for Liu Gang, Liu Lei and Wu Weimin to buy them.

This matter is really not that simple. It does not mean that Zhao Dahai can make the decision on his own about the fish he catches. This is definitely not the right way to do things. He must discuss with Liu Gang, Liu Lei, and Wu Weimin before he can make a decision.

"This matter must be discussed carefully with Liu Gang, Liu Lei, and Wu Weimin."

Zhang Li reminded Ding Xiaoxiang to handle this matter properly.

"mom!"

"Don't worry about this! I know what's going on."

Ding Xiaoxiang nodded.

Liu Gang, Liu Lei and Wu Weimin are more than just business partners.

Our relationship is very close, and we cooperate on all kinds of things, or may cooperate in the future.

Ding Xiaoxiang's idea was very simple. She would rather earn less money or take more risks to ensure the number of fish in Liu Gang, Liu Lei and Wu Weimin's restaurant.

"mom!"

"When did you and my dad go to my sister-in-law's house?"

Ding Xiaoxiang asked Zhang Li.

"The day after tomorrow afternoon."

"Everything is ready!"

"I'll be out the day after tomorrow afternoon."

"You have to keep an eye on these things at home." "You really have to help with the business at the fish market every day."

Zhang Li was a little worried.

"mom."

"Don't worry! What big of a problem can it be?"

"The fish market business is indeed very good, but my second sister-in-law and I are enough for the two of us!"

"If it doesn't work, just call someone else to help. It's just two hundred dollars a day, it won't delay the matter."

Ding Xiaoxiang knew that her mother Zhang Li was a little worried about the business in the fish market. She was worried that she and Zhang Qi, especially Zhang Qi, could not handle the business alone.

"Correct!"

"Isn't that what happened? Why didn't I think of it?"

Zhang Li suddenly realized that if Ding Xiaoxiang and Zhang Qi were really too busy, they could spend two hundred yuan to hire someone to help out for a few days.

"Alright, alright!"

"Mother!"

"Just rest assured!"

"My second sister-in-law Zhang Qi and I will handle this matter properly. There will be no problem at all. Just wait and count the money when we come back!"

Ding Xiaoxiang was not worried at all. It was just a small matter, and something she was very familiar with. She and Zhang Qi could handle it. If she was too busy, she could spend some money to hire someone to help for a few days.

It's quiet at night.

Ding Xiaoxiang returned to her room. She did not call Liu Gang, Liu Lei or Yang Qin to tell them that Zhao Dahai had caught fish again. If she had made such a call, Liu Gang, Liu Lei or Yang Qin might drive the seafood truck to the dock of Langtou Village early tomorrow morning.

seven in the morning.

After finishing her breakfast, Ding Xiaoxiang rode her scooter to the gate of Hongyun Restaurant.

"Yo!"

"Ding Xiaoxiang."

“Nowadays, I am living a very comfortable life.”

"You don't have to get up at five or six in the morning to work."

Yang Qin saw that Ding Xiaoxiang spoke rudely as soon as she opened her mouth.

"Hee hee hee!"

"Yang Qin."

"You are absolutely right. There is really no need to get up early now."

Ding Xiaoxiang smiled and nodded. She didn't have to take care of household affairs now, so she didn't need to get up early like before.

Ding Xiaoxiang pointed to the back of Hongyun Restaurant and went to the construction site with Yang Qin to take a look. The leveling and foundation digging were going very smoothly. The weather had been very good in recent days and there had been no rain. It wouldn't take much time to complete the digging, and then they would start laying the foundation and building the house.

"Yang Qin."

"We both need to come and see this place whenever we can."

Ding Xiaoxiang had a headache. She had too many things to do recently and couldn't spare much time to keep an eye on things here. Yang Qin could only work harder on her own.

"Ok!"

"You don't need to tell me about this. I will come here and keep an eye on it. I don't have anything else to do now, so I spend almost ten hours here every day."

Yang Qin nodded. The building under construction was the most important thing for her and Ding Xiaoxiang. If Ding Xiaoxiang didn't have time, she would come here more often to watch.

"correct!"

"Yang Qin."

"Zhao Dahai came back from fishing last night and caught about 13,000 kilograms of fish."

"I'm not sure exactly how much it is. I'll know after I weigh it."

"One is black porgy, one is croaker, and the other is grouper."

Ding Xiaoxiang told Yang Qin that Zhao Dahai returned to the dock after fishing last night.

"what?"

"Thirteen thousand kilograms or even more of fish?"

"Black porgy, croaker, and grouper?"

Yang Qin stopped and turned to look at Ding Xiaoxiang who was standing next to her.

"Hey!"

"What are you doing? Isn't it normal for Zhao Dahai to catch so many fish? You know that he is not fishing alone, but with Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou, a total of four people are fishing!"

Ding Xiaoxiang was surprised to see Yang Qin.

"Pooh!"

"What you said really doesn't make any sense. So what if there are only four people going out to sea to fish? Even if there are 40 people going out to sea to fish, they can't catch so many fish. Even a large fishing boat can't catch so many fish in two days!"

Yang Qin was not polite at all.

Ding Xiaoxiang's words sound simple, but in fact they make no sense at all.

"Alright alright!"

"Whatever you say is what it is!"

"The fish have been caught. How many fish do you want?"

Ding Xiaoxiang looked at Yang Qin.

"Oh?"

"Aren't you going to keep some of the fish for yourself?"

"Now you have a new idea and want to sell them all?"

Yang Qin immediately understood the meaning of Ding Xiaoxiang's words.

Ding Xiaoxiang shook her head. She couldn't possibly sell all the fish at once. If that was the case, there would be no need to buy such a large fishing boat. But she certainly couldn't keep too many fish in her hands.

"Zhao Dahai has been fishing a lot during this period, and it seems that he catches a lot of fish every time he goes out to sea."

"If this continues, there will be more and more fish."

"Even if we can keep the fish alive, we can't keep them alive for one, two, or even three months, right?"

Ding Xiaoxiang told Yang Qin that Zhao Dahai had caught a lot of fish recently, and the large fishing boat he had just bought could not keep so many fish all the time. If Hongyun Restaurant and Wu Weimin could not consume so many fish, they would have to find another sales channel.
