Chapter 429: A Team That Attracts Attention
As with the previous salvage of shipwrecks, the old experts who are specialized in the study of shipwreck antiquities can't wait to rush over. In addition to a large number of antique cultural relics worth studying, the two seals are highly valued by the elderly.
Even if the identity of the owner of the seal cannot even be verified, these experts can also do further research based on the salvaged shipwreck. In order to trace the early years of maritime trade, more convincing data and evidence should be established.
Considering that the fishing moratorium is coming, Zhuang Haiyang naturally does not miss the last trip to the sea. After taking the experts to the company, Zhao Penglin and others were responsible for the reception. In this regard, the old people seem to have no opinion and can understand.
An old man even smiled and said, "With your kid's ability to salvage sunken ships, why do you still want to fish?"
"Salvaging a shipwreck depends on luck, and you may not be able to salvage one at the end of the year. If you fish, it is a profitable business. What's more, I have opened a new restaurant now, and I don't have more seafood to prepare, which will also affect the business of the restaurant!"
Regarding the reason given by Zhuang Haiyang, the old people who came here also laughed and did not say anything. But they all know that this idea is still true. Compared with salvaging wrecks, fishing is indeed a business that can last longer.
If you have the opportunity to have more contact with these old people, Zhao Penglin and others will naturally not dislike it. Even if they complained about Zhuang Haiyang and became the shopkeeper again, they were more willing to take this opportunity to have more contact with these old people and have a good relationship.
The day after returning to Nanshan Island, Zhuang Haiyang once again led the fleet out to sea to fish. Knowing that this should be the last fishing operation at sea during the fishing moratorium, everyone naturally cherishes it and hopes for a better harvest.
In fact, in the following days, Zhuang Haiyang selected some precious seafood for fishing. It turned out that when the fleet returned home, everyone was very happy to see the seafood they had caught.
When the salvage ship stopped at the port, Zhuang Haiyang also smiled and said: "Squad leader, transfer all the catches of the No. 2 boat to the cage and raise them." With these seafood as the backing, the restaurant should not be too short of stock in the future. ”
"Okay, what about the crabs? Do you want to keep a little more?"
"Let's keep some too! However, if we really want to leave a boatload of goods to go to town, I guess those fishermen will cry too!
"Okay, then I'll arrange it. ”
Looking at the large number of wild groupers caught, all of which were transferred to the cages one after another, Concubine Li also said excitedly: "Wow, why are the seafood caught this time so good?
"That's for sure! On the last trip, I have to buy more good goods. During the fishing moratorium, fishing boats are unable to go to sea. If you want to buy this kind of precious wild seafood, you can only choose to import it, and the price will be expensive.
The fish pond and fish cabinet on the side of the restaurant, although a lot of live fish can also be raised, but the area is a little smaller after all. Now we use all the cages, and we can also ensure that we can supply the restaurant at any time. By then, business should be better than usual. ”
Listening to what Zhuang Haiyang said, Concubine Li also smiled and said, "No one else has me, right?"
For her boyfriend's approach, she is naturally happy to see it. In any case, the restaurant itself is the majority shareholder, and the more money the restaurant makes, the more money it will receive. Even if it's not bad money, but who would think it's too much?
Regarding these seafood cultivated in cages, Zhuang Haiyang also specially greeted the town and the Maritime Safety Bureau. The purpose of the greeting is to ensure that the next time the seafood is delivered, it will not be seized by law enforcement.
Of course, the salvage vessel will not carry any fishing equipment with it on the next delivery. In this way, even if a patrol boat boards the ship for inspection, Zhuang Haiyang does not have to worry too much. With his connections in Nanzhou, this matter can still be solved.
In the past few days when Zhuang Haiyang went to sea, Zhao Penglin and others, who had sent away those experts, immediately held another private auction. Many of the good things that were salvaged last time were bought by collectors who heard the news.
After learning that Zhuang Haiyang was back, Zhao Penglin also smiled and said, "Your kid should be fine next, right?"
"Uncle, I'm afraid I can't be idle. In two days, I will go to Shanghai to pick up the new ship. I ordered a distant-water fishing vessel last year and was going to go around New Zealand during the off-season. By the way, I can also take care of the ranch. ”
As soon as these words came out, Zhao Penglin also smiled bitterly: "You kid, you really can't be idle for a moment! The money from this auction, I'll let someone transfer it to you later." As for the distribution of dividends, you are responsible for it. The speed at which you kid makes money, I'm red-eyed!"
"Uncle, look at what you said. With your old net worth, I may not be able to earn it no matter how hard I work for decades!"
gave Zhao Penglin a little hand, and the other party was naturally very happy. Don't look at Zhuang Haiyang now has the title of billionaire, and he seems to be very young. But in fact, his wealth is not enough to see.
The value of Zhao Penglin's shares in the real estate company alone is indeed enough to make people sigh. Not to mention, Zhao Penglin also has the equity of a number of listed companies under his name, and those stocks are all high-quality stocks, which are very valuable!
Again, in terms of wealth ownership, he is really not enough in the eyes of other shareholders of the salvage company!
After selling the fish, Zhuang Haiyang also specially told Wang Yanming to send the two fishing boats to the shipyard in the town for maintenance. received a call from his sister, Zhuang Haiyang was also happy.
On the other hand, her own sister was extremely shocked and said: "Ocean, why did you transfer so much money in your private account at once?"
"Sister, it's okay, this is all the money I earned, and I paid taxes! Now you should believe that even if you don't work, I can support you! This summer, you must arrange a vacation, and you can't shirk it anymore. ”
Faced with a fortune of more than 100 million yuan, even if she has worked in the bank for many years, Zhuang Ling is also frightened. Fortunately, she somewhat knew that the salvage company that her brother co-founded with Zhao Penglin and others was indeed a very profitable company.
And in this company, my brother is also the first shareholder, with the most shares!
Correspondingly, after receiving the money transferred by the company, Zhuang Haiyang also called Lin Xin over and asked: "Sister-in-law, the money from the salvage company should have arrived, right? ”
"Okay, what do other people say about bonuses?"
"The security personnel who stay behind will be given a bonus of 20,000 yuan. Regular employees of travel companies will be given a bonus of 10,000 yuan. It should be regarded as a semi-annual award, so that the big guy can also be happy. Anyway, next, I have to take a break for a while. ”
"Okay then! In this way, I guess it will be sent out a lot!"
"Isn't there more left than what was sent?"
Although those who stayed behind did not receive as many bonuses as those who accompanied the ship. No one will dislike the extra bonuses. Whether it is 10,000 or 20,000, in the final analysis, it is a reward given by Zhuang Haiyang, who would not appreciate it?
On the other hand, the team members who accompanied the ship were all happy when they saw the bank arrival text messages that rang one after another. Compared with the calmness of the old players, the new players are extremely excited. A dividend is indeed higher than the income from fishing for half a year.
Perhaps, as those veterans said, salvaging the sunken ship is really hard. Rewarding, equally lucrative and scary. Even Zhao Cheng and others, who are far abroad, are still on the list of people who enjoy dividends.
It is Zhuang Haiyang's atmosphere that makes the recruited comrades-in-arms also desperate for him. In Wang Yanming's words, if you take such a high salary and do something sorry for Zhuang Haiyang, it is indeed too unconscionable.
Not to mention the comrades-in-arms recruited by Zhuang Haiyang, even the classmates recruited by Concubine Li and the employees of the travel company were very happy to see the extra bonuses. Honestly, who would have too much of a bonus like this?
Even the employees who are currently in the application period are reluctant to give up their jobs when they see that their bosses are so generous and the company's benefits and salaries are so generous. Correspondingly, I naturally work harder.
After a few days of rest, Zhuang Haiyang also resumed his work of receiving tourists. As for him and Wang Yanming and his entourage, they were going to take a special plane to Shanghai to pick up the ship. On this outing, they will stay at sea for a relatively long time.
Before parting, Zhuang Haiyang also deliberately found his girlfriend and said: "When the ship comes back, you can almost start the overseas travel project." For the first batch of tourists, I have already contacted the platform, and some anchors will be invited to warm up. ”
"Does this work?"
"Yes! For us, we don't have to receive too many tourists in the early stage, and we don't have to compete with travel companies for business. Again, we take the high-end route. Specially received, young tourists converted by the platform, so that it is easier to receive. ”
"Well, okay, I'll discuss this matter with Xiaowan and them when the time comes. ”
"Okay, I'll leave this matter to you, it's best to send a few guides with good English skills in the early stage, and go to the ranch to familiarize yourself with the situation first. In addition to the ranch, they should also be acquainted with other well-known tourist attractions in the South Island.
In this regard, when they arrive in the South Island, I will greet the Archon of the South Island, and I am sure that he will not refuse such a good thing. The more tourists go to the South Island, it will be of great help to enhance the reputation and income generation of the South Island. ”
"Well, I see!"
From initially only receiving visitors in the live broadcast room, to now, this route is basically followed. Even though the number of tourists who land on the island every year seems to be small, Concubine Li feels that the quality of these tourists is still very good.
Compared to those tour groups, the so-called low-cost tour groups are launched in the hope of earning high commissions. Zhuang Haiyang also disagrees with this kind of travel reception. In his opinion, tourists should make them feel that they are worth the money when they spend it.
The business of receiving tourists would rather do less than smash the signboard. In the later stage, Zhuang Haiyang will also contact the restaurant to receive some tourists who are not bad for money, and specialize in food tours, so that diners can go to the ranch to taste the food.
When it comes to the pasture, there will be no limited supply of beef and mutton. Of course, the cost of this kind of reception is certainly not cheap, but Zhuang Haiyang believes that these tourists will be extremely satisfied with the service provided by the ranch when they arrive at the ranch.
There is more food on the ranch than the restaurant can offer. Especially for those tourists who love Western food, organizing a group to go to the ranch to brush up on food should also be a very exciting and aftertaste thing.
All in all, travel companies, fishing companies, and even salvage companies that rarely operate every year will bring continuous income to Zhuang Haiyang. Correspondingly, Zhuang Haiyang's wealth income will also increase year by year.
As the company expands, Zhuang Haiyang can also recruit more employees and provide more employment opportunities. The fishery company under its name alone is now affirmed and welcomed by the old troops, and it has solved the problem of difficulty in the placement of non-commissioned officers for them.
When Zhuang Haiyang and his entourage set off for Shanghai again, the security team members who stayed behind to guard them felt a little envious. But they also know that as newcomers, they naturally have to undergo more tests than the old players.
If nothing else, the probationary period is definitely still required. When it comes to things that only the core members of the team know, it is certainly unlikely that they will want to contact them in a short period of time. Besides, they are not responsible for much on the island.
On the other hand, the salary given to them by Zhuang Haiyang is still very satisfactory to them. As the security captain Hong Wei said, as long as they work hard and don't play tricks, then their income in the later stage, Zhuang Haiyang will not treat them badly.
Even if you can only get a dead salary or a small amount of bonuses in normal times, at the end of the year, the security team will receive more year-end bonuses than the salvage team. Zhuang Haiyang's approach is not a kind of compensation?
If they are arranged to farm abroad, then they can receive more salary and subsidies. For them, retired non-commissioned officers, it is indeed their luck to find such a job.
The most important thing is that Zhuang Haiyang's principle of recruiting salvage team members and security team members has always remained the same, that is, to give priority to retired non-commissioned officers with difficult family conditions. With this job, their lives are more secure after they retire.
After checking in and boarding the plane, everyone changed into casual clothes. But the flight attendants on the plane were somewhat surprised to see such a group of flat-headed passengers. The passengers on the same plane also saw the identities of these people at a glance.
Even Zhuang Haiyang, who was sitting in the business class, also smiled bitterly: "Lao Wang, tell the flight attendant about our identities, and just say that we are all retired veterans, and we made a special trip to Shanghai to attend the gathering of comrades-in-arms, so that they don't have to worry too much." ”
"Okay, I see! Luckily we're all here, and if we all sit together, it's hard not to get noticed!"
Considering the distant-water fishing vessel, the number of crew members required is relatively large, plus a lot of equipment on board needs to be familiar with the operation. Taking the opportunity to pick up the boat, Zhuang Haiyang naturally wanted to bring everyone over, and the province would have to train separately when the time came.
After Wang Yanming's explanation, those flight attendants also breathed a sigh of relief. In any case, passengers will still give corresponding respect to retired veterans. A soldier, even in peacetime, is a profession worthy of respect.
Hong Wei, who saw this scene, said with a smile: "It seems that it is necessary next time, let's take the high-speed rail! That is more convenient!"
"But it's slow! If it's really necessary, consider buying a private jet!"
Regarding Zhuang Haiyang's answer, Hong Wei also felt very reasonable. But after thinking about it, he thought that if he really bought a private jet, would it seem too high-profile?
