Chapter 152: Before Going to Sea
Chinese people pay attention to talking about business at the wine table, even if it is just about leasing fishing boats. Zhuang Haiyang, who was not in a hurry to go home at noon, directly booked a table of wine in the Yuxian Building and invited the owner to eat and drink with Zhou Yang and others.
In addition, Zhou Yang has said before that the guarantor of Zhuang Haiyang's charter is Chen Xingwang. When it comes to signing a contract, the guarantor also needs to sign. Therefore, the signing of the contract and the arrangement of the treat in the fresh fishing building, the owner has no opinion.
As Zhou Yang said, this shipowner may have a little money, but if he really wants to compare with Chen Xingwang, a person with assets of more than 10 million, the shipowner still can't compare. With Chen Xingwang's help guarantee, the rental price can also be cheaper.
Don't say much, as long as you can reduce it by one or two thousand, won't the money for this dinner be doubled?
The wine was almost drunk, and the price was finally finalized, and the owner of the ship said helplessly: "Lao Chen, you are not kind!"
Chen Xingwang, who heard this, said with a smile: "Fat Sun, don't be dissatisfied." Your ship has been parked at the dock for almost two months, right? This year's market, I believe you also know, your ship will be rented out, and it is estimated that it will take a while.
My nephew is also a cheerful person, and all the rent is paid in one lump sum, so what are you not satisfied with? I have drunk this wine and eaten the food, so I will give you a little discount, what are you doing so much?"
"Lao Chen, I didn't say that Xiaozhuang was unkind, I meant that you guy was unkind, you want to get me drunk, right?"
Although he drank some wine, the owner was still satisfied with the rental price given by Zhuang Haiyang. As Chen Xingwang said, if the fishing boat cannot be leased, let alone make money, it will have to be discounted.
Now, for at least half a year, he doesn't have to worry about anything anymore. If Zhuang Haiyang really made money by borrowing his boat, if he wanted to continue to rent others in the future, it was estimated that it would be better to rent it. These days, many people like to grab the lottery!
Finalize the contract, and transfer the money directly from the ocean after eating. Seeing that the money had arrived, the shipowner, who had drunk and blushed, was also very happy and said, "Xiaozhuang, the money has been received." I'll hand over this ship to you for safekeeping, and if you rent it back in half a year, take care of it!"
"Brother Sun, don't worry! If the business is good, I will definitely rent your boat at that time." ”
Regarding the customization of the new ship, Zhuang Haiyang did not disclose. In fact, if the profit of going to sea is good, it is not a big problem to rent an extra boat to accompany you to the sea. At most, but it will cost a little more.
With Dinghaizhu by his side, Zhuang Haiyang has never worried about making a lot of money when going to sea, just making more and earning less!
Sending away the owner of the ship who signed the contract and got the money, Zhuang Haiyang followed the key to the ship, and handed it directly to Zhou Yang for safekeeping. When I came back to the fishing boat, I started to talk about buying things that I would use to go to sea, planning first and then purchasing.
While he was thinking about buying supplies for going to sea, Zhuang Haiyang said again: "Uncle Zhou, wait a minute, I'll go with you to buy trawls." The trawl we bought this time must be of a large caliber. We can't use the little trawl, what do you think?"
Actually, I'm not in favor of that kind of net. It is precisely in these years that this kind of net has been used too hard, which has made it more and more difficult to catch fish now. With a big net, when you go to the net, it really depends on luck. ”
Listening to what Zhou Yang said, Zhuang Haiyang also smiled and said: "Don't worry, you know, I've always had good luck! In addition to trawling, I also plan to buy some big crab pots." You know, the crab market has been good in the past two years!"
But Zhou Yang quickly said: "If you want to catch crabs, why don't you use crab nets?"
"The crab net is too troublesome to solve, and it is more convenient to use the crab pot. When we get to sea, we don't fish at night, so we find a suitable place and throw the crab pot down. After resting the next day, let's scoop up the crab pots again.
You can help me watch the things on the boat, and as for the fishing, you will listen to me when the time comes. If my solution doesn't work, then I'll listen to you. Anyway, we go to sea to make money, and we all want to make more, don't we?"
Okay, you're the boss, you're not afraid, what am I afraid of?"
After some discussion, Zhuang Haiyang gave the crew a guaranteed salary of 3,000 yuan each time, and the crew shared 20% of the income for each catch returned. Other benefits, naturally, are not available.
Of course, the so-called guaranteed income is that when the fishing boat runs out, Zhuang Haiyang also has to make up for 3,000 times. According to the three to four days of going to sea, this income is not low. I run a few more times a month, and my monthly income is not low!
As for the invited comrades-in-arms, Zhuang Haiyang guaranteed that their monthly salary would not be less than 10,000. In terms of recruitment, Zhou Yang enjoys the same treatment as the crew. His nephew came on board to help cook, and Zhuang Haiyang opened a monthly salary of 8,000.
is only responsible for cooking, and doesn't have to worry about other things, and Zhou Yang's nephew also feels that the income is much higher than that of being a chef in a small restaurant. When he doesn't go to sea, even if he rests at home, he can get this salary on time every month!
In Zhuang Haiyang's words, as long as he can make money by going to sea, he will not forget these crew members while eating meat. Don't look at Zhuang Haiyang taking the lion's share, but in fact, Zhuang Haiyang bears the risk, isn't it normal for him to take the lion's head if he really makes money?
At least in Zhou Yang's opinion, Zhuang Haiyang's salary is still very kind! If anyone thinks that this salary is a bit unsafe, then Zhuang Haiyang will find someone else. In the small town, are you afraid that you can't find fishermen who know how to go to sea?
Accompanied Zhou Yang to buy trawl nets and cages for crab catching, and the rest of the daily necessities to be purchased were also booked with the merchants. When the fishing boat goes out to sea tomorrow, the merchant will also send it directly. Merchants can also make a lot of money on bulk purchases.
The most important thing is that if you have a good relationship, you will have to buy it every time you go to sea in the future, which is also a long-term deal!
When returning to the fishing port wharf, Zhuang Haiyang also instructed: "Uncle Zhou, you should know from my family, and tomorrow you will drive the fishing boat directly to the wharf below my house." With this kind of tonnage of fishing boats, my fishing port can still dock.
If the weather doesn't change much in the next few days, then we'll go out to sea in the afternoon. For lunch, go to my house to eat, and by the way, let's also discuss and go to that sea area. For the first time, it's okay to waste some time. ”
"Okay! I'll call you again when I go to sea tomorrow!"
With some daily necessities, Zhuang Haiyang took five more comrades-in-arms and sailed back to Nanshan Island. Seeing the group returning, Lin Xin and Wu Fang, who were staying on the island, also quickly knew that their husbands were going to prepare to go to sea tomorrow.
During dinner in the evening, Zhuang Haiyang also said in a timely manner: "Lao Wang, we are estimated to go to sea tomorrow, and there are a few people brought by Master Zhou on the boat." When the time comes, you should also learn from them and find out what is going on the ship first.
It's just that there is a sentence, I still want to say in advance, we are comrades-in-arms and brothers, you are willing to come over to help me, brother is grateful. But when you get to the ship, you have any comments to make. But you must obey what I decide.
I know you're here to make money. But I hope that while taking you to make money, I can ensure that you return safely every time you go to sea. We've all been at sea, so we should know that there are a lot of risks at sea!"
"Xiaozhuang, don't worry, even if you don't say this, we will do a good job!"
"That's fine! I know that you must be worried about whether you will make money at sea. But I believe that when you go to sea this time, you will not have such worries when you come back. If conditions permit, we will strive to run two more times a month in the future.
If you really feel tired, let's take a break and rest for a while. As you know, I'm a man who is easily satisfied. Money has to be earned, but you can't blindly drill into the eyes of money. When it's time to rest, let's also enjoy life. ”
"You guy, you haven't worked yet, you just want to be lazy, it's not good!"
Wang Yanming, who came over first, knew very well that Zhuang Haiyang was sometimes very diligent, but sometimes he liked to be a salted fish, and he could lie lazily for a day at home. It's just that when I think of Zhuang Haiyang's income, even if I am a salted fish, I earn more than them.
After dinner was finished, the other comrades-in-arms returned to the room that Zhuang Haiyang chose for them to rest. The three comrades-in-arms, who were still single, didn't feel anything to worry about. Even, they are looking forward to their upcoming work.
And the two couples who live in the same old house, after a cloud and rain, have to tell each other their hearts. Thinking that their husbands are going to sea tomorrow, as wives, it must be a lie for them to say that they are not worried at all.
Facing his new wife, Zhu Junhong also said seriously: "Ah Fang, don't worry, there is a phone on the ship." I'll call you when I have time. What's more, this trip won't be long in time, so nothing will happen!"
"Well, when you get to sea, you must be safe. You know, I'm waiting for you at home!"
Something like this, Lin Xin also said. For Lin Xin, she is still very satisfied with the salary that Zhuang Haiyang gave to the couple. As Wang Yanming said, if you are lucky, you can pay off your foreign debts in one year.
After a few more years, maybe by the time the time the daughter goes to school, they will be able to come home and focus on the children. Maybe have another child, if possible. In order to retire earlier, the couple also need to earn more pension money!
Only Zhuang Haiyang called Concubine Li, who was far away in Lingnan, and informed him that he might go to the sea tomorrow, and Concubine Li was also very concerned and said: "Then you must be more careful, remember to call me when you have time." ”
"Well, don't worry! I'll go see you when I have time!"
"It's okay! Now there are a lot of things going on at home, and it's not convenient for you to run back and forth. After a while, I'll come back to accompany you. ”
"Okay! Then it's decided! The days without you are indeed a bit difficult at night!"
Concubine Li, who heard the subtext in the words, couldn't help blushing and said, "Hey, you villain, why do you want to do bad things?"
"Hey, don't you want to?"
used the phone to tease his girlfriend and divert the other party's attention, she was far away in Lingnan, and she was worried about herself. Although it is very dangerous to go out to sea, Zhuang Haiyang has already seen it, and the weather should not change much recently.
Coupled with the sea area he ran, it is not too far from China. If there is an emergency at sea, I believe that the speed of return will be faster than that of other distant-water fishing vessels. Compared with making money, Zhuang Haiyang always feels that his life is more important!
