Chapter 490
Before Zhao Qin went to the island, he had no intention of taking advantage of Lao Qin, but he did not refuse when Lao Qin insisted.
The reason is very simple. This guy is responsible for the entire project here. If no one gives him a gift, then there is something wrong. Even if Zhao Qin knew it, he would not tell Yu Fake.
To take a step back, even if he told Yu Fake, Xiao Yu wouldn’t take it seriously.
When it comes to employing people, there will be no fish unless the water is clear, but you must be clear about which aspects of this person you are using. How loyal is Lao Qin to Yu Fake?
It’s enough to consider it from his perspective.
It’s normal to receive some small favors after being assigned abroad.
Zhao Qin once knew a business owner who had two purchases. When someone told him in person how much rebate he had given to the purchasers,
The boss just smiled lightly and said that the man was generous and willing to give.
Zhao Qin was curious and asked the boss why he wasn’t angry. The boss directly said that those two people had been with him for several years and helped him earn more than 3 million yuan in profits every year. He shouldn’t care too much about some things and just beat them occasionally to keep them from going too far.
If we really want to fire someone, will another person be better and cleaner than the previous one?
These cannot be guaranteed, Zhao Qin thought about it later and believed it.
Without delaying Lao Qin’s busy work, Zhao Qin said goodbye and boarded the ship.
It was only a two-hour flight from home, and it was already a very familiar water area, so everyone gradually relaxed.
It was nearly 11 o’clock in the morning when we arrived at the pier. Chen Dong had been waiting here for a long time. He was happy but also a little surprised to see so many seafood.
Even if the trawler can catch lobsters, it can also catch abalone, sea cucumbers, and sea urchins, which is amazing.
When he saw the 13 swordfish, he was completely confused. Can this thing be caught with a trawl net?
Although his curiosity aroused, he also knew that now was not the time to ask. He took out his mobile phone and started thinking of ways to ship the fish, especially swordfish, which was not a currency. If he wanted to sell it at a good price, he had to contact a few more people.
Zhao Qin is helping to unload the cargo. Although the cargo this time is not much, he has hired help, but the cargo in the living cabin is more troublesome, so he still has to fish it up himself.
Lobsters and abalone are simple. They are directly put into net baskets and sunk into the live cabin. All you have to do is fish the baskets up. The troublesome ones are stone fish and Shi Jiugong.
If the net basket has a small range of motion, it will be suffocated, so it is poured directly into the live cabin. Now it is not only necessary to fish it, but also to sort it.
A crowd of people once again gathered on the pier to watch the fun, but no one asked questions about whose ship this was and where it came from so many similar harvests.
At noon, Zhao Qin called Lao Zhu and asked for a box lunch. Everyone ate directly on the boat and continued working after eating.
The unloading process lasted until about three o’clock in the afternoon when all the goods were unloaded.
After unloading here, the purchasing station over there had already taken away some of the goods for weighing. Not to mention Chen Dong, even the group of people who received the goods were surprised to receive so many fresh seafood at one time.
Zhao Qin walked around the acquisition station. Chen Dong still didn’t understand what he was looking at. “My sister is in the city and the design drawing is almost finished. We will go and take a look tomorrow if we have time.”
“OK.”
Zhao Qin agreed immediately. He happened to have other things to do in the city tomorrow.
The next step was to divide the goods, which was very painful. Lobsters, abalones, sea cucumbers, snails, etc. were all divided into different sizes. Chen Dong invited many aunts nearby to help. The whole backyard was filled with people who divided the goods.
The people on the boat were also divided, but the division was too rough, so Chen Dong directly said that he was not qualified.
It was only around 6 o’clock that I was busy sorting out all the specifications. The next step was to weigh them. As for the purchaser, I had already arrived and helped sort them for a while.
When everything was done, Chen Dong called Zhao Qin upstairs to start placing orders. This time the goods were even more single.
The total weight of Tsing Yi is 5,240 kilograms, which is 57 yuan per kilogram, and the saury fish is 3,420 kilograms, which is only 75 yuan per kilogram.
“Brother Dong, the prices of these three swords are wrong. Why are they cheaper than before?” Zhao Qin thought it could break a hundred, but the disparity was too big.
“Earlier, all you sold were live, but this time they are all chilled. The price of 75 is not low.”
Zhao Qin was speechless. He wanted to make a living, but he had to meet certain conditions. He was depressed. He was now nearly 100,000 yuan short.
The stone fish weighs 2,272 pounds and costs 145 yuan per pound. This price is quite good.
This is the harvest of the net, and then there is the swordfish. Because they were all killed by tigers this time, the quality is not very good. The total of 13 fish is 5720 kilograms. The price of one kilogram is 145 yuan, which is also lower than before. ,
The price of Shi Jiugong is pretty good, weighing 4,200 kilograms, the unit price is 41 yuan.
The lobsters were divided into different sizes. Among them, Chen Dong was not willing to sell some of the largest ones. He probably planned to give them to an old man he knew well.Send the board,
The order was opened. There was no unit price for the one that weighed more than 5 kilograms. Even though it was 3,000 yuan, the other two specifications together weighed 3,055 kilograms. There were two prices, the large one was 115 yuan and the small one was 105 yuan.
Abalone is the most abundant, and it is also the slowest to divide, because it has to be divided into three sizes. The total weighs about 7,100 kilograms, and the average price is about 100 yuan.
Sea cucumbers are simpler, with only two sizes, and they are also the smallest, weighing just over 1,200 kilograms. However, the price is very high, with an average price of 140 yuan.
The price of sea urchin is even higher, ranging from 175 yuan per catty to 1,400 yuan per catty.
Finally, there are the rattle snails, one weighing about 300 kilograms, some miscellaneous snails weighing over 1,000 kilograms, and some good fish such as grouper and stone bream, all of which have been weighed one after another.
As for the 100 kilograms of coconut snails and several banana snails, Zhao Qin didn’t let them go on the scale at all.
The final total amount was also quite impressive, 3,461,570 yuan. After the total amount came out, Zhao Qin breathed a sigh of relief. It was incredible to have such a harvest this time.
After all, the net was broken, and it was all obtained by dozens of sticky nets and diving.
Chen Dong transferred the other money as usual, took a small amount of cash to settle Lao Mao’s commission, and asked everyone to bring some abalone and sea cucumber back.
“Everyone go back and have a good rest. I will call you in advance next time I set out.”
Zhuzi and the others went home laughing, but the old cat stayed behind. “Aqin, how about I buy two nets tomorrow and install the trawl nets by the way? You don’t have to worry about it. I’ll just call Zhuzi to help.”
“Brother Cat, you don’t have time tomorrow. You have to go to the city with me. I will buy it online and let you know when it’s done.”
The old cat knew what he was going to do in the city tomorrow. He grinned and chatted with Awang for a few more words before going home. He said that he should go to the village first, because this time he set off from the village pier.
So their motorcycles were all parked in front of the eldest brother’s house.
Zhao Qin took out 10,000 yuan and handed it to Awang.
“What are you doing, Aqin? You are looking down on me.” Awang was furious and wanted to run away.
“Okay, okay, I won’t give it to you anymore. Come back.”
Awang had just returned. Zhao Qin was about to ask him if he wanted to go back for dinner in the evening, but he took the initiative and said, “Aqin, I am very happy to come here. I will go back tomorrow.”
“Would you like to play for two more days? I will take you to Xiamen City tomorrow.”
“No, it’s time to go back. You must remember to visit my hometown.”
Zhao Qin no longer tried to persuade Awang to stay, and asked Awang if he didn’t want to go to the village for dinner again. Zhao Qin had no choice but to ask Chen Dong to help entertain him in the evening.
