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

Chapter 979 Paying People to Do Things
"Ugh!"

"Is there any way to do this?"

"Who told Shi Jiehua's sea fishing boat to catch so many fish? The captains of other sea fishing boats go out to sea to make money from fishing fees. Shi Jiehua's sea fishing boat not only makes money from fishing fees, but also makes money from selling fish!"

Chen Hua spread his hands helplessly.

"what!"

"This matter has no impact on us. In fact, the more fish Shi Jiehua's sea fishing boat catches, the more fish we will have the opportunity to purchase and the more money we can make."

"Li Hongyun and his family must be really angry now."

As Liu Baojiang spoke, he couldn't help but laugh.

"It's the same old story. What can we do about it? A person's development is often just a matter of deciding whether to know someone or not."

"Li Hongyun has been firmly suppressing Shi Jiehua for the past ten years. It seems that Shi Jiehua will never be able to turn things around in his lifetime."

"As soon as Shi Jiehua and Zhao Dahai worked together, they made a big comeback."

"How can Li Hongyun be a match for Shi Jiehua now?"

"Shi Jiehua doesn't even take Li Hongyun seriously now."

"It's not just Shi Jiehua who has made a comeback. People like He Jian, who basically didn't have much business and could only support his family, suddenly bought a large sea fishing boat with 40 fishing spots."

Xu Fu took a sip of beer. All of them had been purchasing seafood at the dock for many years and were very familiar with the grievances between Shi Jiehua and Li Hongyun.

"Who could have imagined that the cooperation between Shi Jiehua and Zhao Dahai would have such a big impact when they came back?"

"The most important thing about deep-sea fishing is to catch fish. As long as you catch fish, someone will book your fishing spot. If someone books your fishing spot, you will make a lot of money."

"Zhao Dahai has this ability, which is to help those who have reserved a fishing spot to go out to sea to fish catch fish."

"When the fishermen saw that Shi Jiehua and He Jian's fishing boats were able to catch so many fish, they all rushed over. Didn't this situation happen all of a sudden?"

"Among the fishing boats around us, especially those for deep sea fishing, are there any that can compare to those of Shi Jiehua and He Jian?"

"Didn't Shi Jiehua say that? The next time we go out to sea, there will be at least two sea fishing boats with 40 fishing spots each week, and there will most likely be two more sea fishing boats with 20 fishing spots each. Just like what we just said, the profit from the fishing spot fees alone will be huge."

"Twenty thousand yuan per person, one fishing spot, that's already two million four hundred thousand yuan."

"How is it possible that Shi Jiehua and He Jian's sea fishing boat only charges 20,000 yuan per fishing spot now?"

Xu Fu shook his head as he spoke, He Jian and Shi Jiehua really made a lot of money.

Liu Baojiang, Xu Fu and Chen Hua. They were eating and talking, all about Shi Jiehua and He Jian's sea fishing boat.

Zhao Dahai had just woken up and walked out of the room, dreaming of going to see the new house that was under construction. The phone rang. He picked it up and heard it was Ding Xiaoxiang calling. After a few words, she hung up the phone. He walked out of the yard and didn't see his grandmother. Zhong Cuihua shouted loudly, but no one answered, because she was not behind the yard.

Zhao Dahai walked out of the yard and saw from afar the site where his grandmother Zhong Cuihua and his second grandmother Huang Jintao were building a house, and he walked over quickly.

"grandmother."

"Xiao Xiang called, I have to go to town."

Zhao Dahai immediately told Zhong Cuihua that he had to go to the town now.

"Yo?"

"What's going on?"

Zhong Cuihua is a little strange.

"Sister-in-law."

"Why should you interfere in the affairs of young people? Why should you ask about them? Aren't you just being nosy?"

Huang Jintao patted Zhong Cuihua's hand.

"Yo!"

"Golden peach!"

"You're right! Why should we care about this matter?"

Zhong Cuihua smiled, nodded, waved her hand, and urged Zhao Dahai to go to the town to find Ding Xiaoxiang.

Zhao Dahai was a little amused, but there was no need to say more about this matter. He turned around, went back to the yard, pushed out the motorcycle, and rushed to the town.

Zhao Dahai arrived at the door of Hongyun Restaurant and saw Ding Xiaoxiang and Yang Qin talking to each other.

"Yo!"

"Brother Dahai!"

"Didn't you just come back from the sea and are resting? How did you get here?"

Liu Lei was busy in the restaurant and saw Zhao Dahai immediately walked out quickly.

"I've had a good rest after a good sleep, so I came to take a look around the town."

As Zhao Dahai spoke, he pointed to the construction site behind Hongyun Restaurant.

"Row!"

"Brother Dahai."

"Then go over there and take a look. My dad is there. I still have some things to do on the ninth floor. I'll go there to find you after I'm done with them."

Liu Lei nodded.

Zhao Dahai, Ding Xiaoxiang and Yang Qin walked around the Hongyun Restaurant and went to the construction site at the back.

As soon as Zhao Dahai walked into the construction site, he immediately saw Liu Gang sitting under a parasol with a table set up. He made some tea and prepared some food, and then he walked over quickly.

Ding Xiaoxiang saw that Yang Qin wanted to follow her and pulled her hand.

"There's no need for the two of us to go over there. We can just walk around the construction site and see if there are any problems with the completed areas."

Ding Xiaoxiang spoke softly and shook her head.

Yang Qin was a smart person. She knew that Zhao Dahai must have something to say to Liu Gang, and it would be inconvenient for her to stay nearby, so she immediately followed Ding Xiaoxiang to another place.

"What are you doing? What do you want to tell Liu Gang?"

Yang Qin looked back and saw Zhao Dahai walking in front of Liu Gang. She was very surprised and didn't know what Zhao Dahai wanted to discuss with Liu Gang.

"What's the problem? Aren't we the only ones managing the entire construction site? Even if there is something wrong, we two will know about it first, right?"

"Liu Gang has never taken care of this matter, but these days he is worried that something might happen, so he stays here every day to watch over the construction site."

"He often has to go out to sea to fish, so he can't do this. Now he's back to rest. I have to call him to talk to Liu Gang about this matter."

"This is a building that our two families built together. It's impossible for Liu Gang, Liu Lei, or you, Yang Qin, to put in so much effort and we just ignore everything and say nothing, right?"

Ding Xiaoxiang directly told Yang Qin why she asked Zhao Dahai to come to the town to meet Liu Gang.

"Hey!"

"What did I think happened?"

Yang Qin smiled. What Ding Xiaoxiang said was a matter of social etiquette. Zhao Dahai really had to come here to meet Liu Gang.

Having a good and familiar relationship is one thing, but the things that should be done still need to be done. I would do the same if I were in their shoes.

"Yo!"

"Boss Liu."

"You are really living a pretty good life."

Zhao Dahai walked up to Liu Gang, pulled the stool next to him and sat down.

"I'm living a good life. Zhao Dahai, you're living a really good life too. You catch so much jade every time you go out to sea. The prices of fish, shrimp and crabs have risen sharply recently. You've made at least half more money from the same fish."

As Liu Gang spoke, he picked up the teapot, poured a cup of freshly brewed boiling hot tea, and placed it in front of Zhao Dahai.

"Correct!"

"For some reason, there are very few fish, shrimps and crabs in the sea during this period. Fishermen can't catch many fish, and fishermen can't catch many fish."

"You have to raise the prices of fish, shrimps, crabs, etc. in your store, otherwise you will make less money."

Zhao Dahai picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. The prices of fish, shrimp and crabs have been rising very fast in recent times.

"what?"

"How long will it take for this to be normal?"

Liu Gang was stunned for a moment. He didn't care much about the things in the restaurant now. However, he just didn't care about the specific things. He had to keep an eye on the prices of fish, shrimps and crabs every day.

"Yo!"

"Have the prices of fish, shrimp and crabs in your store not increased during this period?"

Zhao Dahai was a little strange.

Liu Gang nodded. The prices of fish, shrimp and crabs have risen rapidly during this period, but the prices in the restaurant have hardly increased at all.

"Most of the customers in the restaurant are repeat customers who eat here frequently."

"If the price of fish, shrimp or crab drops, we will definitely lower the price immediately. But if the price of fish, shrimp or crab increases, we often won't raise the price immediately. We have to wait and see what happens."

"Generally speaking, the price increase is absorbed by our restaurant itself."

"If it lasts for a long time, we won't be able to sustain it and we will have to raise the price."

Liu Gang told Zhao Dahai that the price of purchasing the remaining shoes has indeed increased in recent days, but the price of selling fish, shrimps and crabs has not increased.

"It's OK if the time is short, but I really can't stand it if it's long."

"Zhao Dahai."

"How long do you think this period of time will be?"

Liu Gang asked Zhao Dahai directly that he must be clear about this matter.

Zhao Dahai shook his head. Even old fishermen with decades of experience at sea, such as his second grandfather Zhao Shi, might not be able to judge how long it would last.

"It will definitely take ten days or half a month."

"Boss Liu!"

"I go fishing every day. Xiaoxiang's family buys fish, shrimp and crabs. As long as the fish, shrimp and crabs in the sea return to normal, we will know at the first time."

Zhao Dahai really couldn't say for sure about this matter.

"It looks like we really need to raise the price."

Liu Gang had a headache. Three to five days or something was no big deal, but ten days or half a month would be a bit too much. However, according to Zhao Dahai, ten days or half a month might not necessarily be enough to return to normal. No matter the prices of fish, shrimp, crabs, or other things, once they go up, it will take a certain amount of time to fall back. With this calculation, it is very likely that this wave of price increases will take a month.

Zhao Dahai smiled and didn't respond. What happened in the restaurant was Liu Gang's business, which was decided by Liu Gang, Liu Lei and Yang Qin. He had no say.

It is Hongyun Restaurant's own business whether the restaurant raises the price or not. This is a way of doing business. Anyway, the fish you catch must follow the market price.

"What's the situation here recently? I heard from Xiaoxiang that you have to sit here these days."

Zhao Dahai changed the subject and pointed to the building under construction. He said that he came here today just for this matter.

"It's nothing, I just have to be careful. No one in this world, especially business people, is stupid. We built such a big building here, so someone must have figured out what to do with it."

"Although Ding Xiaoxiang and Yang Qin are very efficient, one is relatively young and the other is a girl."

"There are some things that we, the grown men, cannot do."

"Besides, I've been in this town for such a long time, no matter who it is, they have to give me some face, right?"

"If not, don't blame me for being rude."

Liu Gang followed Zhao Dahai's line of sight and saw that the building had already built a framework of more than seven floors and would be completed in a short time.

"Row!"

"This matter really requires you, Boss Liu, to come here and take charge. Some things are very troublesome to deal with once they happen. It's better to just show your face first to avoid someone being blind."

Zhao Dahai strongly agrees with Liu Gang's approach.

Liu Gang and I are now capable of handling many things, and we can solve any problems that really happen. But once something happens, it will be very troublesome to solve it, or we have to pay a price, or it will cause various impacts. Not to mention that Ding Xiaoxiang and Yang Qin are watching the construction site most of the time. If something happens, we will regret it.

Liu Gang is experienced and knows this very well, so he simply comes here to keep an eye on things to prevent anything from happening.

"correct!"

"Should we just invite a few people?"

"One is that the construction site needs someone to watch over it now. Boss Liu, you don't have to work so hard. Or you can't watch over it by yourself 24 hours a day."

"The second is this building. We will definitely have to hire people after it's built."

"Why not just start inviting them now!"

"My idea is to hire three or five now, and then hire more after the building is completed."

"Looking for someone in the village."

"The one who retires from the team must be the best!"

Zhao Dahai was thinking about this matter on his way to the town just now.

It would be good for Liu Gang to watch here, but Liu Gang is only one person after all, and he certainly can't watch here 24 hours a day. The best way is to hire a few people.

"Row!"

"This is a good idea!"

"Hongyun Restaurant has already hired someone, so why don't we start hiring people here now? It's just a matter of spending a little more money."

Liu Ganggang thought about it and nodded. What Zhao Dahai said was right. He couldn't just stay here and watch over it all the time. He would have to hire people after the building was completed. After doing business for so many years, he knew very well that once the building was completed, he would definitely encounter all kinds of problems. It was impossible for him to handle every problem himself.
