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

Chapter 985: Can't figure it out? Just ask someone!

"The stone bell is."

"Are you really planning to borrow money from Zhao Dahai and Ding Xiaoxiang to buy a sea fishing boat?"

Ding Dawen frowned.

After Ding Xiaoxiang finished speaking, she and Zhao Dahai went to the live hold of the big fishing boat to check out the fish there.

"This is no joke. If you want to buy a sea fishing boat now, you must buy one that is at least as big as your father's. This will cost a lot of money."

Ding Dawen pointed at the two large sea fishing boats of Shi Jiehua and He Jian which were parked not far away.

"Correct!"

"If I buy it now, I'll definitely have to buy this big one!"

“It does cost a lot of money.”

"Hey!"

“But this is indeed a good idea, and the key is that this is indeed a good opportunity now.”

Shi Zhongwei nodded without hiding anything. He indeed had such an idea.

"You have to pay interest when you borrow money. For such a large sum of money, the interest is quite high."

Ding Dawen reminded Shi Zhongwei that he would not say such words to other people, but Shi Zhongwei is now dating his sister Ding Ailian. If the two of them really get married, and Shi Zhongwei makes money, his sister Ding Ailian will live a very comfortable life. On the contrary, if Shi Zhongwei does not make money or even gets into debt, Ding Ailian will have a very hard life.

Buying a fishing boat, especially one of this size, is definitely a huge matter and must be considered seriously.

It has been a traditional custom in fishing villages that one must pay interest when borrowing money, especially for those who go out to sea. To buy a fishing boat, one not only has to pay interest but the interest is very high.

One is the person who goes out to sea to fish, who has the opportunity to make a fortune, and the other is the person who buys fishing boats, as the risk is very high and since the interest rate is low, no one is willing to lend.

Zhao Dahai and Ding Xiaoxiang have a very close relationship with himself and Shi Zhongwei. The compensation money did not come from the wind. Since it was borrowed, interest must be paid.

"Correct!"

"Interest must be paid, and it must be paid according to normal standards."

"It's a lot of pressure to be honest, but like I said, it's definitely an opportunity."

"If I were alone, I would definitely not do such a thing. I have enough food and drink at home, so I don't need to worry about it."

“But now we really have to think about it.”

"Brother Dawen."

"I know this is a big deal and I'm not going to make the decision on my own."

"Brother Dahai and Sister Xiaoxiang are back from watching the fish. Tell them that I have something to do and have already left."

"This matter is not just my business. I have to go find Ding Ailian and talk to her about it to see what her opinion is."

As Shi Zhongwei spoke, he hurried away. The fishing boat reached the dock and he went home immediately. He first called to see where Ding Ailian was and then went to see her.

Ding Dawen looked at Shi Zhongwei who left in a hurry and shook his head. He didn't quite understand why Shi Zhongwei felt that this was a rare opportunity. However, it was a good thing that Shi Zhongwei did not have the urge to discuss it with his sister Ding Ailian.

Big fishing boat.

Live water tank.

Zhao Dahai took a scoop net and scooped up a green spotted fish weighing over ten pounds. He looked at it carefully. He then scooped up a sesame spotted fish weighing about fifty pounds and looked at it carefully.

"These fish are alive and well. There is nothing wrong with them. They can be kept for another two months."

Zhao Dahai shook the scoop net and the fish returned to the water.

Ding Dawen is very serious about his work. The fish in different live water tanks of the fishing boat are raised at different times. Some are caught early, some are caught later, and they are all separated.

This is a little troublesome, but very convenient to manage.

"Ok!"

"These fish are really different. The prices have been quite good in recent days. I have sold some of them gradually. I don't know if all of them will be sold in the next few days."

Ding Xiaoxiang told Zhao Dahai that she would most likely sell all the fish next.

"Row!"

"It's up to you to decide! If the price is good, you have to sell it. There are plenty of fish in the sea anyway, so just sell them and catch more."

Zhao Dahai knew that there were not many fish in the sea recently and the price of fish had risen quite a lot, but there would be no way that there would always be no fish in the sea. After a while, there would most likely be a lot of fish, and in that case, the price of fish would drop. Ding Xiaoxiang's plan this time was to sell all the fish she caught before the price dropped.

"correct!"

"Do you think Shi Zhongwei will ask us to borrow money?"

Zhao Dahai put down the scoop net in his hand and listened to Xiaoxiang's advice to Shi Zhongwei.

"Whee!"

"It's hard to say. It depends on whether Shi Zhongwei has such an idea or the courage. If it's me, I will definitely not let go of such an opportunity."

Ding Xiaoxiang smiled, she really wasn't joking. If Zhong Wei asked her and Zhao Dahai to borrow money to buy a fishing boat, they would definitely lend it to him. The key to the problem was whether Shi Zhongwei had the courage to do so.

"This is indeed a good opportunity. It depends on whether Shi Zhongwei can see clearly and understand this matter."

Zhao Dahai nodded. Ding Xiaoxiang was right. This was definitely a good opportunity.

"Why should we care about this matter? Anyway, the idea has been expressed. Whether to do it or not depends on Shi Zhongwei. Let's just wait and see."

Ding Xiaoxiang didn't know what Shi Zhongwei was thinking, but she knew very well that this was an opportunity that couldn't be better. It all depended on whether Shi Zhongwei could see it clearly and make up his mind.

After Zhao Dahai and Ding Xiaoxiang finished looking at the fish, they returned to the cab. After asking Ding Dawen, they found out that Shi Zhongwei had gone to discuss with Ding Ailian. The two couldn't help but look at each other. It seemed that Shi Zhongwei must have some ideas in his mind, wanting to have his own pirate ship as soon as possible and make money for himself.

"Zhao Dahai."

"Xiao Xiang!"

"Do you think this is really possible?"

Ding Dawen was very worried.

"Brother Dawen."

"This is just an idea proposed by Xiaoxiang. No one can say for sure whether it can be done. It depends on the results of the discussion between Zhong Mei and Ding Ailian."

"Different people have different views, and even different people have different luck. Some people buy a big fishing boat and go out to sea to catch a lot of fish, and they can catch a lot of fish and make a lot of money. But another person is very likely to lose money and get nothing back."

"Is this kind of thing rare in a fishing village?"

Zhao Dahai just shook his head. No one could answer Ding Dawen's question.

Do you want to do it? Can you do it? To put it bluntly, can you make money?
I or Ding Xiaoxiang can give some advice to Shi Zhongwei or some other people, but the final choice is a personal matter.

Ding Dawen thought about it and didn't ask any further. It was impossible for Zhao Dahai or Ding Xiaoxiang to guarantee that Shi Zhongwei could make money. His question made no sense at all.

Zhao Dahai and Ding Xiaoxiang did not go anywhere else, but stayed on the fishing boat to wait and see if they could get any news from Shi Guangming. Shi Zhongwei returned home and made a phone call, only to find out that Ding Ailian was not at home but at the town's fish market.

Shi Zhongwei rode his motorcycle to Zhengzhou in the evening and went straight to the fish market to meet Ding Ailian. It was still early, not the night market, and there were only a few people setting up stalls in the fish market. It was very quiet. Ding Ailian was talking to Zhang Li, Zhang Qi and Chen Miaomiao.

Shi Zhongwei walked over quickly, greeted Zhang Li, Zhang Qi and Chen Demiao first, and then called out to Ding Ailian.

Zhang Li knew that Shi Zhongwei had just returned and would have to go out to sea again soon, so it was normal for him to come here to find Ding Ailian. She asked the two of them to go out for a walk and there was no need for them to stay here.

Ding Ailian's face was a little tender, and it blushed and swelled up. She followed Shi Zhongwei out a little shyly.

"What's wrong?"

"What's the matter? Aren't you just going out to sea to fish in a few days? Isn't this a very normal thing? Is there any need to come here to talk about it?"

"correct!"

"When did you go out to sea?"

Ding Ailian was a little puzzled. Why did Shi Zhong come to find her at this time? He must be in a hurry because of something.

"In two or three days, I will have to go out to sea with my father and He Jian."

"I came here to see you today because I have something very important to discuss with you. I am a little unsure about what to do. I need to discuss it with you."

Shi Zhongwei quickly told him the idea that Ding Xiaoxiang had given him.

"what?"

"Did Sister Xiaoxiang give you such an idea?"

Ding Ailing was almost frightened. The sea fishing boat that Shi Zhongwei's father Shi Jiehua and He Jian bought was very large and cost a lot of money.

"Correct!"

"Brother Dawen and I were talking. As it stands now, Dawen and I are just working at home, and the money we earn is all ours, and we just take some pocket money."

"While we were talking, Sister Xiaoxiang gave me this idea. She said that if I wanted to buy a big sea fishing boat, I could borrow money."

"If you borrow money to buy a fishing boat, you will definitely have to take risks. You have to make money to pay the interest and principal, but in this way, all the money you earn is yours."

Shi Zhong was very distressed.

"Hey!"

"It's okay if you have such an idea."

"Having your own sea fishing boat is definitely a good thing, but the risks are really high."

Ding Ailian knew very well why Shi Zhongwei had such an idea. He just wanted to be independent, especially if she and Shi Zhongwei really got married in a few years. Without her own sea fishing boat, the money earned from it would belong to the family anyway. She would have to wait for Shi Jiehua to be older before he could take over the family's sea fishing boats.

"Isn't it true?"

"This is really risky. I don't have any money, so I have to borrow all the money to buy the fishing boat from Brother Dahai and Sister Xiaoqian. If I borrow money, I have to pay interest and repay the principal."

"Another thing is that I don't know if there are enough people booking fishing spots. If there are, there's nothing much to say, but if not, it will be very difficult to make money."

"But having said that, this is indeed a very good idea. I always think that buying a sea fishing boat of my own is very cost-effective. Even if I borrow a lot of money and the interest rate is relatively high, there won't be much risk."

Shi Zhongwei vaguely felt that this was a very good opportunity, but he couldn't figure it out clearly.

"Sister Xiaoxiang couldn't have come up with such an idea so casually. She must have thought that this idea was a good one, but we just didn't think it through clearly."

"If you can't figure this out, why not just ask someone who knows?"

Ding Ailian thought about it for a long time but had no clue, but she knew that Ding Xiaoxiang would definitely not give any random advice.

"what!"

"correct."

"Based on our relationship with Sister Xiaoxiang, she will definitely not give us any random advice. Sister Xiaoxiang must think this is a good opportunity, so she told us about it."

Shi Zhongwei nodded vigorously.

"But who should we ask about this?"

Shi Zhongwei looked at Ding Ailian and thought that if neither of them could figure it out, the best way would be to find someone who knew the answer and ask.

"Do I need to think about this? One is Xiaoxiang! The other is Xiaoxiang's mother."

"Sister Xiaoxiang, I didn't explain the benefits of this to you just now. It's not impossible for us to go find Sister Xiaoxiang now, but Sister Xiaoxiang will definitely keep us in suspense."

"Let's go find Sister Xiaoxiang's mother now!"

Ding Ailian immediately thought of the candidate.

Shi Zhongwei laughed out of the blue and nodded his head like a chick pecking at rice. This was indeed a very good idea.

"go!"

"Let's go back to the fish market and ask Aunt Zhang what to do about this matter."

Shi Zhongwei and Ding Ailian turned around and went back to the fish market.

"what?"

"What on earth are you two doing here? Aren't you looking for a place to hang out or have a meal or something?"

"What's the matter?"

Zhang Li was very surprised to see Shi Zhongwei and Ding Ailian come back less than ten minutes after they left. She had thought that Shi Zhongwei would have to go out to sea again in a few days and came here to find Ding Ailian just to see them more often, but now it seems that this is not the case.

"Hey!"

"Aunt Zhang!"

"There is indeed something going on. Ding Ailian and I have discussed it and we are a little undecided. So we have to ask you to come and analyze it for us."

"Who said Aunt Zhang has good taste?"

Shi Zhong is a direct flattery.

"Come on, come on."

"Stop flattering me! Tell me what you have to say so I can hear it."

Zhang Li smiled and was a little curious about what Shi Zhong wanted to say to her.

Shi Zhongwei didn't hesitate and directly told Ding Xiaoxiang about her idea of ​​borrowing money to buy a sea fishing boat.

"Yo!"

"This is what you wanted to talk about!"

Zhang Li was a little surprised. She didn't expect Ding Xiaoxiang to give Shi Zhongwei such an idea. What she didn't expect was that Shi Zhongwei wanted to do this.
