Vol 3 Chapter 569: Five taxi boats (second update)
As his business grows, Li Duoyu now has a big headache.
That means it is beyond your capabilities!
He is both the boss and the core technical person in charge, which means that he needs to do many things personally.
If you want to take care of the market, you are afraid of mistakes in technology. After all, if something goes wrong in breeding, the entire army will be wiped out.
But you should manage these breeding plants carefully. He is also indispensable for outside business. In this era, the contract is not over as soon as it is signed. It is more about human relationships and connections.
This caused him to do things as if he were wearing handcuffs and leg irons, and he felt like picking up sesame seeds and losing the watermelon.
Li Duoyu now urgently needs someone who can control the overall situation to help him coordinate these things.
There are many talents, but it is really hard to find the right one. The best candidate in Li Duoyu’s mind is An Yuliang.
As for why he wanted to be chosen, in addition to his ability, Li Duoyu also admired his character.
Looks like a profiteer, but he is the most loyal employee of Rongcheng United Distribution Co., Ltd.
The original employees didn’t realize how good Manager An was until they were persuaded to quit by Chen Yuanyu in disguise.
If An Yuliang is willing to help him, Li Duoyu will be much more relaxed and have more time to upgrade the industry.
Li Duoyu didn't plan to wait any longer. If he met Manager An next time, he would forcefully tie him up.
Li Duoyu plans to shift his focus to Qixing Bay in the second half of the year. The development space there is much larger than Dandan Island.
For example, in the case of eels, the freshwater resources of Dandan Island can support only a dozen or so fish.
In my previous life, I heard Old Tang say that Dandan Island was very difficult during the millennium.
At that time, the freshwater resources on the island plummeted because all the freshwater resources were diverted by the Wang brothers for farming.
There is no water at all from the wells. If you want to drink water, you even have to spend money to buy it from a ship carrying fresh water.
He was reluctant to use fresh water when bathing, washing clothes and vegetables. This directly led to the fact that during that period, the people in the town disliked the people of Dandan Island because their clothes and bodies always had a strong smell of salt water.
So Li Duoyu plans to move the eel factory from Dandan Island to save some fresh water resources if he plans to raise it for another two years.
Li Duoyu's positioning on Dandan Island has always been clear, that is, fishery fishing, marine aquaculture and pond aquaculture.
Actually, as long as you grasp any one of them, Dandan Island can take off at will.
For example, the scope of marine farming is very large. It can not only raise kelp, but also oysters and abalone. In the future, when large yellow croaker becomes more and more expensive, maybe we can cooperate with Sharp Fisheries Research Institute to raise large yellow croaker. .
As long as they don’t seek death and develop steadily, Li Duoyu thinks it will be difficult for the fishermen on Dandan Island to become poor.
As far as eel farming is concerned, the location of Qixing Bay is not as good as that of Haixin Eel Factory in Nanri Town, but it is not too bad.
After all, he can feed the eels with the small amount of fresh water on Dandan Island, and there is a Qixing River next to Qixing Bay, which is enough for him to build.
And the reason Li Duoyu particularly wanted Qixing Bay was that it not only had a freshwater river, but most importantly, it was close to the sea!
The operating space near the sea is huge. The entire area of Qixing Bay can be used to cultivate clams and thin-shelled sea melon seeds.
Those reclaimed earth ponds can be used to raise shrimps and blue crabs. In short, in terms of overall strength, this place surpasses other breeding places.
And Qixing Bay is also close to the customs terminal. In addition, if you drive from here to Rongcheng.
It only takes one hour. Compared with Dandan Island farming, the transportation cost here will be greatly reduced.
In short, Li Duoyu can only make a simple plan so far. After all, there are too many changes in the future, and even a reborn person like him is not 100% sure.
Thinking about this, Li Duoyu in the office rubbed his temples and closed the Shanghai brand notepad Xiaoying gave him this week.
Now, he has finally experienced the suffering of his boss in his previous life. Li Duoyu discovered that as long as money does not come from strong winds, it is actually not easy for every boss. The bigger the business, the more things he has to worry about.
Just when he squinted and wanted to take a rest, Shitou hurried to the shrimp farm in a fishing boat.
“Brother Yu, Changwei Shipyard has sent several boats to our island. I hope you can hurry over and sign for them.”
Hearing this, Li Duoyu then remembered that he had previously ordered five fishing boats from Changwei Shipyard and had been building them for some time. The other party had already urged him to pick up the boats several times.
But because I was really busy some time ago, and my eldest brother gave birth to a baby, this matter has never been put on the agenda.
Unexpectedly, the shipyard was more anxious than him and sent the ship directly to Dandan Island. After all, Li Duoyu only paid the deposit, and most of the money was still left.
Just when Li Duoyu was about to drive a fishing boat back to the island, his uncle Chen Dongqing reminded him: "I have booked a private room at Rongcheng No. 1 Courtyard tomorrow. Don't forget, my senior has already arrived, and..."
“I know, I won’t be late.”
Li Duoyu couldn't help but shake his head, realizing that there were really too many things going on, and he really wanted to hold his wife and have a good rest.
Li Duoyu drove his fishing boat back to Dandan Island Pier for work and found five brand new iron boats docked at the pier.
After seeing Li Duoyu, a young man immediately came up to him.
“Director Li, long time no see, I am Zhang Yuanhan from the shipyard.”
Li Duoyu smiled slightly awkwardly. To be honest, he rarely went to Changwei Shipyard and was not familiar with the people in their factory.
The first time he went there, he was rejected and refused to let in. His fishing boat was almost taken away by Director Gou of the shipyard and given to a second-generation man.
In the end, Secretary Huang came forward to help him get the boat back, and by the way, he got rid of Director Gou.
Seeing that Li Duoyu couldn't recognize him, Zhang Yuanhan quickly said: "It's me, Director Li. I used to be the janitor at the shipyard."
After what he said, Li Duoyu remembered that there was indeed such a number one person, and he was the one who stopped him when he first entered the factory.
And it seems that it was this young man who jumped out to report Gou Qingyuan in the end. Unexpectedly, he is no longer a guard now.
However, in this era, those who can work as janitors must have connections in the factory. After that incident, it is normal to get a promotion and a salary increase.
“Okay, I’ve been promoted, I almost didn’t recognize you.”
Zhang Yuanhan smiled and said: "I haven't been promoted. I am just the head of a small department. As soon as I told the leader that I knew you, I was asked to deliver the ship."
Li Duoyu smiled and said, "I asked you to ask for money."
Zhang Yuanhan chuckled twice, and then said: "Yes, that's what the leader told me."
Li Duoyu was stunned for a moment. He discovered that this young man really only knew how to hit straight balls. He also reported Gou Qingyuan last time and told him everything he knew.
Since there were five new fishing boats, there were a lot of people watching at the pier. They were quite envious of these new fishing boats.
Each one is almost twelve meters long. To them, a fishing boat of this size is no longer a small fishing boat and can completely fish in the open sea. And each ship is equipped with the latest diesel engine, which looks very powerful at first glance, and the bows of the ships are all equipped with net hoisting machines.
There is also a live fish bin in the middle, and there is even a groove reserved for adding a rain shelter.
Li Duoyu’s fishing boat is too far away and impractical, but this kind of fishing boat tailor-made for fishing is really attractive.
Many fishermen at the pier have envious looks. Let’s not talk about other things. As long as you get on a fishing boat like this, you will feel more motivated to fish than usual.
Normally, you will be tired after fishing for half a day. With a fishing boat like this, you may be able to work for four or five more hours.
A fisherman named Zheng Chunfa couldn't help but asked: "There are many fish, but you breed them and don't fish. Why do you have so many fishing boats? Why don't you rent one or two to us?"
Li Duoyu smiled and said, "You're right, I'm renting it out."
“That’s just right, you can rent it to me.”
Li Duoyu sighed: "I'm sorry, all the boats have been rented out."
“Ah~”
After hearing this, the fishermen on the dock were all shocked: "Who did you rent it to? We don't know how much you rent this boat for this month."
"My charterer is responsible for this matter, and I don't know much about it. She is the only one who has the list of chartered boats. I just came to collect the boat."
Li Duoyu and Shitou inspected the fishing boat and started every engine and net hoist.
Then, he said to Zhang Yuanhan: "Okay, the ship is very good, there is no problem. I will pay the subsequent money directly to your shipyard's account."
“Thank you, Director Li.”
Seeing that so many fishermen also wanted boats, Zhang Yuanhan smiled and said: "Director Li, our factory is in the process of making a profit during this period. I think people in your village really want boats. Why don't you book a few more boats. "
Li Duoyu glanced at him: "You are quite good at business."
Zhang Yuanhan laughed.
Hearing this, the villagers all became excited: "Director Li, please book a few more boats and give us a chance to become fishermen."
Li Duoyu thought about it seriously: "I have to go back and ask my charter wife about this matter. She is in charge of renting out fishing boats."
The group of fishermen at the dock started to make a fuss: "No way, Director Li, this kind of thing must be decided by men."
“That’s right, I am the one who makes the decision in my family’s affairs. If my mother-in-law disobeys me, I will just slap her in the face and keep her obedient.”
As soon as he finished speaking, someone pinched his ears: "Li Dazhu, you are becoming more capable as you get older, right? Who do you want to give a slap in the face?"
Seeing this scene, the woman weaving a net in the shack also said with disgust:
“When a man gets older, he only has one mouth left and can’t do anything. It’s better for us, Director Li, who knows how to respect his wife and often takes Teacher Zhou to the sea to play.”
Li Duoyu thought the previous words were quite normal, but the latter sentence was obviously a bit off.
The village radio rang, and Uncle Mao shouted: "Please come to Gao Feiya from the seventh team, Wu Xiaoguang, and Zhao Xiaoliu from the third team to get off at the pier. Your fishing boat has arrived."
This time, a total of five villagers were assigned fishing boats, and these five villagers were all selected by Zhou Xiaoying. These people, like Chen Wenchao back then, had no money to buy fishing boats, and could only do odd jobs for the boss of the boat.
So they generally also know how to sail a boat, and some even have better fishing skills than the boat boss.
Gao Feiya, who is in his fifties, arrived at the pier early. When his name was read over the radio, he was dumbfounded.
Director Li did talk to him, but he did not explicitly say that he would lease the new fishing boat to him.
Having spent half his life fishing for others, Gao Feiya finally had his own boat. He couldn't help but burst into tears.
Young man Zhao Xiaoliu touched the boat and couldn't help but cheered loudly: "I finally have my own boat."
Seeing how happy he was, someone on the pier poured cold water on him and said: "The boat is not yours, it belongs to our Director Li, it is just rented to you."
“Xiao Liu, with your fishing skills, if you can’t make any money, you should rent it to someone else as soon as possible.”
“Get out of here, sir. You want to curse me for not making any money. I will buy this boat sooner or later.”
With the sound of a series of firecrackers, under the envious eyes of everyone, the five new ship owners worshiped Mazu on the new ship.
Next, I marked the fishing boats I rented with paint. Otherwise, the five boats with the same captains would be easily mistaken.
But what everyone is more concerned about is another thing: "Xiao Liu, how much does it cost to rent your boat for a month?"
Zhao Xiaoliu smiled and replied: "Director Li said that the first month is free."
“What about the second month?”
Zhao Xiaoliu suddenly said seriously: "Director Li won't let us talk about this. He said that this chartering model is still being explored and the price is not yet determined."
“That’s a rough number.”
“If you want to know, just ask Director Li directly. I can’t tell you anything, otherwise Director Li will 100% take my boat back.”
That night, Li Duoyu held his waist and lay on the bed to rest. There have been too many things recently and he really needed a good rest.
I never thought about it.
Today is destined to be an eventful day. There were knocks on the door and quarrels at the neighbor's house.
Lao Hu's dog also barked, and 250 also barked together.
At the door of Lin Shanshan's house, Xiao Qingsong took a fire stick and shouted angrily: "Lin Shanshan, what do you mean? Come out and explain it to me."
"Why do you want to divorce Weidong? I tell you, it's impossible. The married woman throws away the water. You will be the wife of my Xiao family until you die, and your child will be the son of our Xiao family until you die."
Just when Xiao Qingsong was banging on the door and cursing, a neighbor shouted: "Old Xiao, why are you so crazy? What time is it, and you don't want people to sleep."
Seeing that everyone was woken up, Xiao Qingsong shouted:
“Everyone just happened to help us with the review. If not for it, when we went to visit Weidong this time, we wouldn’t have known that Lin Shanshan, a vicious woman, kept forcing him to sign a divorce agreement.”
Xiao Weidong's mother also shouted: "I find it strange that Wei Dong just moved in with her parents' house just a short time ago. It turns out that she has a man. Now who in Xiasha Village doesn't know that you and that guy named Shi The boy broke his shoes."
After hearing this, Shi Shi really couldn't bear it anymore, but just as he was about to rush out, he was held back by his parents. (End of chapter)
