Chapter 038: Fine Red Coral
Aunt Xin originally planned to send Xu Fang back, but seeing that it was already seven o'clock in the evening, she simply took Xu Fang to her house. At the age of a tiger, Aunt Xin was extremely satisfied with the spring breeze this night.
The next day, Xu Fang returned to Yuehai Village, it was already nine o'clock in the morning, seeing that everyone was working on the beach, Xu Fang smiled and said: "I have brought all the money, and when it is weighed at noon, let the village chief settle it for everyone together." β
Everyone naturally believed that Xu Fang would not repay his debts, and under the stimulation of money, everyone worked harder.
When Xu Fang returned home, Zheng Xiulan was sitting in the courtyard writing and painting. Curiously leaning over, I was surprised to find that this woman was actually laying out the future construction map.
That night, she drew a map of Yuehai Village on paper, and the woman turned it out and redrew a map, and on the map, the layout of some infrastructure was reasonable.
There are hotels, restaurants, residential areas, supermarkets in the village......
There are beach attractions, marine entertainment, and fishing areas by the sea. And on the side of Jiulong Mountain, she was also hooked by her, and many scenic spots were set up.
"Chief Omura, what are you doing here?" Xu Fang asked in surprise.
White-eyed Xu Fang, Zheng Xiulan said: "You have no conscience, didn't you say that you want to build Yuehai Village into a scenic spot? I have thought about it carefully in the past two days, and this method is feasible." β
"Hehe, okay, then wait for you to plan, let's make money to build." By the way, I want to go to the deep sea today, will you go with you?" Xu Fang asked.
"How deep is it to go to the deep sea, how deep is it, what are you doing with so much effort?" Zheng Xiulan frowned and asked, "Didn't I tell you, if you want to make a lot of money, you can't waste time on basic things." β
"Soon there should be a new way to make money, but now we are short of money, this land is 300,000 yuan, and the small villa built plus decoration will cost 400,000 yuanβ although it is a lot, but such a big hole has not been filled, and now I owe more than 20 million." β
"Gotta get it, don't cry poor, I'll go with you. Helplessly, he glanced at Xu Fangchao, and was about to go out with Xu Fangchao, when his eyes suddenly widened, and he asked in surprise: "I owe more than 20 million?
"I met a partner in Qingyun City, opened a hotel with me, and took a fancy to a building in the second ring road, 30 million yuan, so I took out a loan to buy it and paid it off in a year. As for yesterday, I haven't had time to tell you yet. β
"30 million! Pay it off in a year? I calculate, I have to repay 2.5 million yuan a month, excluding the cost of labor, maintenance, and ingredients, you need to operate 150,000 yuan a day to ensure that after repayment, the hotel can still be maintained. 150,000 a day, you are the dragon meat you sell!" Zheng Xiulan asked with wide eyes.
"Do you think the dishes I cook are delicious with dragon meat?" Xu Fang asked rhetorically.
"This ......" Although Zheng Xiulan wanted to shake her head, Xu Fang's cooking skills were really speechless, and she sighed: "Your cooking skills are good, but in today's society, it does not mean that good products must sell well, and they also need the support of various means of publicity and promotion." Besides, if you are good at cooking yourself, then you can't cook all the dishes in a hotel. β
"My partner has five million start-up capital, which can last for two months. That person's business ability is very good, the taste of the food is checked by me, and I am still confident that this hotel will open. Besides, you see that I can earn hundreds of thousands of dollars a month in Yuehai Village, and I can't make money when I go out to open such a big hotel?" Xu Fang smiled and comforted.
"Forget it, you can say it. What's the name of the hotel?" Zheng Xiulan didn't know how to refute, so she simply diverted the topic.
"Shirlan Hotel. β
", seriously. Seeing Xu Fang's hippie smiling face, Zheng Xiulan wanted to kick it over.
"I'm serious. β
Seeing the sincerity in Xu Fang's eyes, Zheng Xiulan rolled her eyes and laughed at herself: "Come on, my name is similar to a village girl, very cheesy, you quickly change your name." β
Xu Fang laughed: "The name is vulgar, I prefer this name to be elegant, when people mention the word 'Xiulan', they only think of luxury, high-end, and respect." β
Looking at Xu Fang's confident appearance, Zheng Xiulan was a little distracted.
This little man lurking in Yuehai Village and willing to be a farmer is so domineering that people have to be convinced.
The dragon, even if it stays in the shallows, is still a dragon. As long as you give it a chance, it will turn the clouds and rain in no time.
At this moment, Zheng Xiulan's heart also quietly moved.
"Virtue!" Glancing at Xu Fang, Zheng Xiulan twisted her little buttocks and walked a few steps quickly.
When he arrived at the beach, Xu Fang said hello to everyone and rowed the boat towards the depths of the ocean. The speed of rowing was much faster, and in an hour, Xu Fang almost advanced a dozen kilometers forward.
Put on a diving suit, let Zheng Xiulan stay here, don't let the boat drift away, Xu Fang plunged into the bottom of the sea with a fierce son.
The depth here is already about 100 meters. The medicine in the body worked quickly, resisting the pressure around him, and his eyes burned to look at the surrounding scenery.
There are more types of swimming fish here, such as large yellow croaker, small yellow croaker, pomfret, octopus, hairtail, and even some turtles and jellyfish.
Swim to the bottom of the sea, where you can see all kinds of marine plants.
However, there are not many people who can dive here, and if you go to the deep sea, it is estimated that almost no one can dive to the bottom of the sea. If you want to set your sights on the deep sea, you can only buy a fishing boat to catch fish.
After all, a fishing boat is worth hundreds of thousands, and the villagers now earn enough to spend, and too few are willing to take the risk of buying boats. It seems that the deep sea is not a method that can be developed in the near future.
Xu Fang walked forward aimlessly, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he saw many beautiful stones on the bottom of the sea, with different shapes appearing in Xu Fang's eyes.
With just one look, Xu Fang recognized these things.
Over the years, Xu Fang has traveled north and south, and naturally knows that coral, some of the best materials, are all treasures sought after by rich and noble families.
There are a lot of corals here, and you can come across some if you swim forward for a while.
Most of the corals are very beautiful, and if they are put out for sale, some people do buy them, but the price of low-quality corals is generally very low.
Red corals are more expensive, followed by some pink-white corals. Generally speaking, these corals with round color and high clarity are relatively valuable.
After looking here for a long time, I didn't meet too high-end ones, I wanted to pick a coral casually and go ashore to please Zheng Xiulan, but Xu Fang's eyes swept away, and a red behind a rock came into his eyes.
Quickly swam over, and when he saw this coral, Xu Fang's eyes instantly widened.
The coral grows on a large rock, and its body is red and round, with almost no impurities. Take out the waterproof flashlight and carefully shine on the branches of this coral, and the light transmittance is very strong. If Xu Fang is not mistaken, this coral should be a first-class red coral, and the market price has been fried to several thousand yuan a gram.
Of course, this kind of coral is generally not large, and those that can grow to four or five catties are super large, which is difficult to encounter. This coral looks quite pleasant, and Xu Fang estimates that it should be more than a catty.
Earn a fortune!
Overjoyed in his heart, Xu Fang took down the coral as soon as he used his strength. Holding this piece of red coral, he wandered around the bottom of the sea for a long time, and never encountered a suitable coral again, so Xu Fang swam ashore in frustration.
"Xu Fang, have you found anything below?" Seeing Xu Fang come out, Zheng Xiulan, who was still bored, immediately came to her senses.
"Hey, look what this is. Xu Fang took off the back clip pinned to his back and gently placed it on the boat.
Seeing Xu Fang's cautious appearance, Zheng Xiulan was curious, hugged it and asked, "What is this?"
"Coral, I estimate that this plant can sell for more than 100,000 yuan. β
Hearing Xu Fang's words, Zheng Xiulan almost threw away the red coral in her hand, although she had a good background, she rarely bought jewelry like coral, but she didn't know much about the market.
"It's so big, and it's so expensive? Zheng Xiulan asked in shock.
Xu Fang was a little speechless, how many laps I have walked around this sea, it was all due to good luck to find this one, it's easy to fart.
However, the value of this coral is not as low as Xu Fang said, although this red coral has not reached the top quality, it is also considered to be of high quality, and it is still very easy to sell for hundreds of thousands.
Taking the red coral back, almost to the shore, Xu Fang put the oars down, and said with a smile: "Chief Omura, I'll go down and take a look, you can row back directly, remember this coral, don't fall." β
Without waiting for Zheng Xiulan to agree, Xu Fang jumped into the water with a thud, leaving Zheng Xiulan messy on the sea, this product is too unreliable.
Xu Fang's speed was very fast, after diving to the bottom of the sea, some sea crabs and lobsters were found by Xu Fang, and they almost couldn't run, and it didn't take long for three lobsters and more than ten sea crabs to fall into Xu Fang's hands.
Just as he was about to swim towards the shore, Xu Fang turned his head and looked at a strange creature hidden in a crack in a rock. If you look closely, the thing is cylindrical, about the width of a palm, dark in color, and covered in flesh.
After just one glance, Xu Fang's right hand was forked, and he pulled this thing out of the rock crack as fast as lightning.
Pinching this soft fat thing, Xu Fang's eyes showed a look of surprise. He was sure that this thing was a sea cucumber!
Sea ginseng is a treasure of the sea and the land, respectively.
Sea cucumber has high medicinal value, containing chondroitin sulfate, which helps the growth and development of the human body, can delay muscle aging, enhance the body's immunity, and has a strong preventive effect on various serious diseases. For example, patients with cancer, three highs, etc.
Moreover, this thing also nourishes yin and yang, and is a great tonic for men, and is quite popular among people in the outside world. The price is even higher, generally five or six years of dried sea cucumbers, the price has reached a few hundred yuan a tael.
This thing usually grows in shallow water, and can survive almost anywhere from two to forty meters. Since you can find one, you should be able to harvest again.
The hard work paid off, and a few minutes later, Xu Fang found two sea cucumbers under a seaweed.
After working below for more than an hour, Xu Fang swam to the shore.
It was already one o'clock in the afternoon, and everyone was exhausted, and when they saw Xu Fang coming up, they immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Aunt Zhang looked at the bag Xu Fang was carrying, and shouted in disgust: "Xiao Fang, what is this bag of bugs you are carrying? β
