Chapter 35: The Three Days of Shibe

After having a barbecue and talking with Gao Jianxiong and others, Gu Kun quickly set off again, and went to Treasure Island to concoct a relationship in the same way, and booked two people who were going to retire from the army in the near future and were willing to be sailors.

In this way, we made a detour to the northeast and arrived at Yonglin Island, the main island of the Wisha Islands, in the afternoon.

There are many people on Yonglin Island, and it is impossible for him to directly persuade him, so it is taboo.

However, he can sell supplies at a large and affordable price in exchange for the general favor of the soldiers and civilians on the island, and win the reputation of supporting the army.

Battalion Commander Liu and Section Chief Hu on the island saw Gu Kun unloading dozens of tons of cheap materials, and they admired Gu Kun's posture of supporting the army beyond measure.

"Comrade Xiao Gu, you are really a role model for patriotic overseas Chinese, and you will definitely become an old friend of the Chinese people in the future. When Section Chief Hu shook hands with Gu Kun, he couldn't wait to shake it a few more times and grab the meat out.

While shaking, he also sighed while reminiscing about the past: "To tell the truth, you are not the first to issue a special fishing license to a private vessel." However, other captains got fishing licenses and transported 200,000 yuan worth of cheap goods for us a year, and they died and would not exceed the quota at all.

It's just you, it's only the first month that hasn't ended, and you've shipped so much. I'm afraid you didn't use half of the ship's capacity to supply us this time. People generally bring up to 20% each time. ”

"Actually, it's less than half a boat, and it's only four out of five. Gu Kun was modest.

He really didn't think there was anything.

The reason for this is mainly because the route he operates is to fish from Lanfang to Yuezhou every time, and pull diesel fuel to bring goods when returning from Guangdong.

Therefore, on the way here, first load the supply goods with about the general transportation capacity, and sell them to Yonglin Island, and make a little freight, which is a businessless business for Gu Kun - because the fishing-based ship, even if you don't transport goods, when you set sail, it will be empty, and it will be a waste if it is empty.

If you transport a small half of the cargo, you will get to Yonglin Island and then go out of Yonglin Island, and then continue to fish all the way to fish all the way and drive all the way, and fill these tonnages, which is the most economical.

It was just perfect.

Other fishing boats that have received subsidies or concessions do not do so because they are not on the way.

Most of them can't make up a route of "fishing all the way and driving all the way to Yonglin Island, just half of the space left".

Therefore, if others send more supplies each time, they will have to increase their operating costs.

Gu Kun does not increase operating costs.

One is a special car, the other is a hitchhiker, what do people compare with him?

He is a role model for patriotic overseas Chinese.

By the way, 80 tons of supplies were sold in the Weisha Islands, which was about six or seven percent higher than the cost he spent in Kuching, which was considered freight. calculated carefully, and also earned back his one-way gas money.

The fare of a hitchhiker is generally just a gas money.

At noon on the same day, Section Chief Hu and Battalion Commander Liu made a decision and gave the soldiers of the entire company on the island a meal, and everyone ate rare fresh meat and vegetables, and even watermelon, a high-end fruit that is rare on the island, - the cultivation of watermelon requires a large amount of fresh water, and there are very few watermelons on the island where fresh water resources are scarce.

When Gu Kun set sail again in the afternoon, at least two hundred people saw Gu Kun off and waved goodbye warmly to the dock. Including the soldiers of the entire company, as well as dozens of civil servants and fishermen from the island.

Among them, there are several islanders with civilian status, after hearing about Gu Kun's business overview, and learning that they can also reimburse the country if they go to Nanyang, they said that they want to go to Nanyang with him.

The fishermen of the Weisha Islands still have a relatively high ideological consciousness, and they are indeed much simpler than those in the areas with a strong commercial atmosphere in the mainland.

Bringing such people to a foreign country, they are not familiar with the place, so they can only rely on Gu Kun, and the cost of betrayal and job hopping is too high.

So as long as the skills are not too bad, Gu Kun is suitable for proper arrangements.

......

On the afternoon of the sixth day of the voyage, Gu Kun set off again from Yonglin Island, and did not stop again for three and a half days, maintaining a relatively high speed, sailing into the Pearl River estuary in the early morning of the tenth day, and arriving in Guangdong again in the morning.

Because of the first experience, Chen Li handled all the formalities and customs declaration work this time, and Gu Kun didn't have to bother mentioning it.

His ship hadn't docked yet, and the people were still on the river, so he called Xu Feng as soon as possible, and asked Xu Feng to send someone to count the handover and prepare to receive the goods.

The seafood business cannot be delayed, and if you raise it for a while, you may die a few more. In order to maximize profits, those fresh goods must be transported to the hotel's oxygenated fish tank as soon as possible.

Xu Feng was also very simple, and said directly on the phone that if he was willing to supply at the last price, he could accept all the orders.

If Gu Kun wants to talk about price increases or new category pricing for individual categories, then ask him to drink tea in person and then talk, or if there is not much disagreement, he can directly talk to his agent Rien.

As soon as Gu Kun heard this, he knew what Xu Feng had in mind.

It is now late March, and the opening of the Spring Fair of the Canton Fair is getting closer and closer, and there are still ten days left.

Therefore, the current price of seafood in Guangdong, because of the arrival of the peak demand season, will only rise slightly compared with half a month ago, and will not fall. Of course, Xu Feng was willing to accept the original price.

Gu Kun didn't break it, but just promised to make a plan: "Brother Xu, you have a good appetite, and you're not afraid that I will be unable to eat too much of the goods I shipped this time?"

Xu Feng smiled confidently in his mobile phone: "Xiao Gu, don't underestimate the market in Guangdong." We Chinese people have an old saying, food in Guangdong, this is the capital of food, and there is a grand event, are you afraid that you will not be able to sell out a boatload of seafood? Don't tell me that the Napoleon Mei Tsing Yi and other unpopular tropical fish I got this time have more than a dozen tons or more. ”

If the number of unpopular tropical fish suddenly explodes, then Xu Feng has to weigh it, after all, the audience is too narrow.

Gu Kun also replied with a smile indifferently: "No, there are more of them than last time, but with all the unpopular tropical fish, it is more than 3 tons." There are a lot more stonefish, 2 tons in a single item!"

Xu Feng: "I'm not afraid of stonefish, this has a mature market, and people in eastern Guangdong already eat it, and I can still dry it up with 2 tons." ”

Gu Kun continued to add slyly: "Then, 5 tons of cedar lobster, you should be fine?"

“4...... Although the cedar dragon is less valuable than other dragons, it is not enough to sell it by ton. Xu Feng was finally taken aback.

He had to admit that Gu Kun had surprised him again.

Xu Feng's mind turned slightly, and he asked a rhetorical question: "You have changed to a bigger ship this time?" You can't catch shrimp in batches. ”

Gu Kun: "Brother Xu is professional, and he can't hide anything from you." But you're only half right, I didn't change boats, I just bought a few more new nets. ”

Xu Feng was dumbfounded: "That's it...... I mean, that little old ship, can it be so efficient? How many sea bosses have I seen, and other people's ships are several times more efficient than yours, and they can't. That's it, I won't inquire into your private affairs, brother, count you ruthless.

But I won't regret what I say, 100 yuan a kilogram, as much as you want. It's a big deal, at the end of the month, I will release the words in advance, and Bolong will receive a little less later. ”

It is still impossible for cedar lobster to replace Aolong, but there is still hope for replacing Bolong Xiaoqinglong. The 94-year-old Chinese people have not eaten it so finely, and the imported lobster is already a face-saving business banquet.

Dead friends don't die poor, Gu Kun earns more money and grabs more markets, so let other Bolong suppliers cry.

Because the amount was too huge (relative to seafood trading), Xu Feng didn't dare to let his horse boy trade directly with Gu Kun in the end.

Instead, he only asked Ma Zai to count and calculate the price first, and finally he personally arrived at the scene, and the bosses of both sides drank a tea, and after personally verifying that it was correct, he paid the money and delivered the goods with one hand.

"Su Mei, 200 yuan per kilogram, a total of 900 kilograms. ”

"Tsing Yi is 150 yuan per kilogram, a total of 1,300 kilograms. ”

"Rare tropical fish A/B/C, the average price is 130 yuan per kilogram, a total of 850 kilograms. ”

"Stonefish is 120 yuan per kilogram, a total of 2,200 kilograms. ”

The above four categories add up to 740,000.

"Fir lobster is 100 yuan per kilogram, with a total of 4,150 kilograms, 410,005. ”

"800 kg of southern mussels, 1,100 kg of red shellfish......

"200 kg of East Star Grouper, 150 kg of Sandao, 600 kg of Mouse Spot, 900 kg of Melon Seed Spot, 1700 kg of Tiger Grouper......"

Finally, there are all kinds of miscellaneous fish, all of which are bargains of less than 20 yuan per kilogram, about 15 tons alive, and 9 tons of all kinds of dead fish.

All the properties of the whole ship added up, breaking through an astonishing 1.5 million yuan!

Holding the list with the final number, Xu Feng's fingers were shaking. Of course, this kind of shaking is not necessarily distressed about money, but more mixed with excitement.

Anyway, he is a second-class dealer, and the more he enters, the more he makes when he changes hands. During the Canton Fair, the huge city of Guangdong swallowed more than 2 million high-end seafood and was not saturated.

He was surprised that Gu Kun's strength had expanded so quickly.

"Brother Gu, I remember the last time you came, all the proceeds were added together, but it was only 50 tens of thousands. This time, there are more than 1.5 million, which is really an eye-opener for me. After paying, he had to sigh from the bottom of his heart.

"Last time, I didn't exert any strength in the second half of the race, and I was injured during the operation, and I was asked to take care of it by my subordinates, of course, it can't be compared with my own horse. Gu Kun was very comfortable with this result.

Of course, what he said was actually watery, because the second half of each trip was in the offshore waters of China, and the harvest here was already low, and the varieties were common, so it was not expensive to sell. But as an excuse to be sloppy, it will definitely not be a goof.

Gu Kun also knew in his heart that his harvest this time was a little exhausted, after all, before him, no one had swept the cedar lobster so accurately and efficiently. If you come here a few more times like him, I believe that you will soon have to change the route, and you will be able to find such a dense group of cedar lobsters next time.

But fortunately, the peak season of high-end seafood consumption in South China will last until the end of the Canton Fair, and there will be a hot sale for one month at most. Then it will have to wait until the autumn fair in October before the second wave peaks.

With 1.5 million funds in hand, Gu Kun proposed to Xu Feng at a very timely time: "Brother Xu, didn't you say last time that before the Canton Fair started, you would introduce me to a few business friends in the East China Sea circle? ”

Xu Feng didn't say a word: "Well, after you went back last time, I have already contacted those friends, and this time they all came over in advance to prepare for the Canton Fair." We can arrange for everyone to get together in a few days. ”
