Chapter 353
After Zhao Qin returned home, he drove to the town first, regardless of the fact that it was already night.
When they arrived at the purchasing station, Zhao Qin chatted with Chen Dong for half an hour, and then left for the city again, chatting with Xia Yingjie for more than an hour.
Then he went to the mall, first bought a printer, and then bought a set of all the rice cookers, induction cookers, etc. that could be used on the boat, and then rushed home.
At home, he closed his eyes and meditated for a moment, then began to write.
“Business is divided into the right way and the evil way. I once heard a story that the man who sold the coffins killed the people himself. This is the evil way.”
Things like this are happening again in our city. On one side, they are hanging pots to save the world, while on the other side, they are poisoning people…’
After I finished writing, I printed out a dozen copies, then deleted all the records in my computer, and planned to go out again.
“What are you doing at night? You have to get up early to sail the boat tomorrow.” Zhao Anguo said when he heard the sound of his door opening.
“You go to sleep, I’ll go to town and I’ll be back soon.”
He said he was going to town, but in fact he returned to the city and handed the printed matter to Xia Yingjie.
“You can deliver them to several newspapers and TV stations in the city.”
“Okay, I get it.”
After arranging all this, it was already past one o’clock at night when Zhao Qin returned home.
Just lie down on the bed and sleep. People plan things, and God will make things happen. How things develop next depends on whether God will give you face.
…
Early in the morning, he gathered his mood, put all the mess aside, and prepared for the ship to officially go to sea for the first time.
When I arrived at my eldest brother’s house, my brother and sister-in-law had already gotten up.
“Sister-in-law, are you ready to send out the things?”
“It’ll be fine in the first two days. You should take some with you. You always have to give it to people when you see them at the shipyard.”
“Okay, then bring ten or twenty copies.”
Carrying the things and riding on the tricycle, the two of them went to the town first, put the tricycle at the purchasing station, and then called a car to take them to the county shipyard.
“Uncle, let’s pick up the boat today and smoke a wedding cigarette and eat some wedding candy.” Zhao Qin smiled and handed a gift bag to the gatekeeper.
“Young man is really good. I just know that you ordered the big ship that just rolled off the assembly line. Darling, you are still a young man with courage.
Remember, ask Manager Luo for some red cloth, and tie some to the rudder and ship’s side. ”
“Okay, thank you, uncle.”
Zhao Qin came to the dock and handed out gift packages to everyone he saw. He didn’t even leave behind Mr. Luo, who was waiting for the handover. Lao Luo would also come and tie up several parts of the ship with red cloth early on.
In fact, the local area used to distribute pancakes and pastries, and they were handmade at home.
Now that conditions are better, no one in Nepal makes pancakes anymore, and they all buy ready-made gift bags containing a few candies and a pack of cigarettes.
When the machine started, Zhao Qin waved to everyone and jumped on the boat.
“Aqin, go directly to the village pier?”
“Well, brother, do you have enough oil?”
“How much oil can the shipyard allocate? I’ll fill it up at a nearby dock later.”
After leaving the dock, we arrived at the pier. After we stopped, we started to refuel. Heavy fuel oil now costs 2,600 yuan per ton. This ship is a 600-horsepower ship. Generally, it consumes 60-80 liters of fuel per hour.
The full cabin can carry 25 tons of fuel, and it costs 65,000 yuan to refuel at one time, which is really painful.
Zhao Qin naturally didn’t fill up the tank. This time, he only had four days of good weather, so he only added ten tons of oil.
After adding it, we set off to the village pier.
A lot of people have gathered at the village pier. Everyone is smoking and waiting for the new ship to arrive home.
Although the village pier is small, the water is deep enough, so a 25-meter boat can easily dock. As soon as the boat stopped, the firecrackers were set off one after another, and the fireworks did not stop for a while.
When Zhao Qin got off the boat, a group of people came up to greet him and congratulate him.
“Aqin, the new ship is coming home, good luck.”
“Aqin, the new ship is still a big ship. Your speed of making money must be even higher.”
“Aqin, don’t forget us when you get rich.”
Brothers Lao Zhu, Lao Zhang, Lao Xing, Lao Liu, and the Peng family were all present, as well as a group of cadres from the village committee who actually came today. The two brothers Lao Lu went to sea and also asked their mother-in-law to buy firecrackers and set them off.
“Come on, come on. It’s not busy at noon. We have a seafood gathering in town. I’ll give it a try if you have nothing to do. I’ll make arrangements for the boat to go out to sea.”
Zhao Anguo smiled and distributed gift bags to everyone, not forgetting his heroic instructions.
“This is a wedding banquet, we must go.”
“Uncle Guo, I will give you two toasts at noon.”
“Director, you have already called on us, how dare we not follow you?”
Zhao Qin looked at his father, who was grinning from ear to ear, and felt very happy. Without a few words with everyone, he began to load things on the boat and add fresh water to the cabin.
This ship has its own cold storage, so I don’t have to fetch ice. I just buy all the pots, pans, etc., plus the buckets and baskets needed for the operation.Loaded on board.
Zhao Qin hadn’t forgotten yet, so he asked people to put the two sets of fishing rods that he and Awang had left on the boat. He glanced at Ahe who was sitting in a wheelchair on one side, and walked closer and patted him on the shoulder. .
“Brother, I’m sorry, I can’t go to sea with you this time.”
“What nonsense are you talking about? Stay at home and recuperate. Wait for the money. You can follow me the next time I go to sea. You won’t be able to avoid being lazy then.”
Then he said to the old lady: “Grandma, I’ll be leaving in a moment. You should worry more about things at home.”
“You don’t need to explain, remember that safety is the most important thing.” The old lady said, and she also took out a Guanyin, which was not big and was made of pure gold. “Some time ago, I had three people shot, and I asked the master to open it. , Wear it to keep you safe.”
“Thank you grandma.”
The old lady took another and hung it around Zhao Ping’s neck. Zhao Ping wanted to refuse, but he didn’t know what the old lady said.
Zhao Qin paid no attention to the two of them, but smiled at everyone: “I’m sorry, everyone, I have to go to sea. My father will greet everyone at noon. We are all from the same village and we all drink water, so don’t be polite.”
“Aqin, don’t worry, no one will be polite to you.”
“Aqin, when we don’t go to sea someday, let’s hold another one to keep the fun going.”
“That’s right, when the time comes, Lao Liu and I will organize it without you having to pay.”
Xia Rong squeezed closer, raised his hand and glanced at his small watch and said, “The auspicious time has come.”
Zhao Qin stopped talking. Seeing that Lao Mao and Ah Chen had already boarded the boat, he also jumped on board. The next moment, Lao Mao started the boat. There was a sway and the boat began to slowly leave the port.
The firecrackers that had just stopped on the shore exploded again at this moment.
“A Ping, please drive.” When the shore was no longer visible, the boat turned a big turn, and the old cat said to Zhao Ping.
Zhao Ping agreed and took over the center console.
The old cat came out, walked into the cabin to check first, and then came to the deck and said to Xia Shouzhu and the others: “Pack the buckets and baskets and put them together. They must be fixed when not working to develop good habits. ”
Then he went to the stern of the boat to check the fishing net. After a while, he came back and found Zhao Qin who was smoking at the bow of the boat. “Aqin, isn’t the fishing net the same one as yesterday?”
“Well, I bought a new one, can you tell?”
“The mesh of this fishing net is larger, and the color of the net bag is also a little off. It may be better to change it. The harvest of the net the day before yesterday was not good. By the way, where are you going today?”
Zhao Qin thought for a while and said: “Drive to the southeast. There is a freshwater island over there. Drive along the island for more than an hour. Let’s try there first.”
