Chapter 165: Albert Shakes the Pot
However, fishing is difficult in winter, and Nemuro is located in the north of Hokkaido, so the weather is even colder than in the south. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoIce even forms in the offshore waters in January and February. Actually, Shuichi Minamino didn't want to fish in the winter, even though it hadn't snowed yet in early November.
Just when Minamino Shuichi was thinking about whether he should continue to go out to sea to fish, suddenly a middle-aged man in a suit hurriedly walked out of the door of the U.S. Imperial Ocean Fishing Company, and chased a person out quickly.
"Mr. Moore, wait a minute! Mr. Moore, it's not that our company can't catch the king squid, but the king squid is too difficult to catch, and even if we go to sea, we may not be able to find it! I just tried to find it as much as I could. "The person who chased him out from behind, Shuichi Minamino still knows, that is Albert!
"Albert, I only need one sentence, can you catch the king squid! Instead of possibly or should, the answer I need is yes or no! At first you said yes, but when I came here to arrange it, you said that you were not sure, do you think I am very good to fool?" said the middle-aged man in a suit named Moore angrily. Listening to this person's words is a feeling of being on top, and he is also the kind of person who only needs the result and does not need the process. Just look at Albert smiling like a grandson.
"Mr. Moore, I hope you can give us some time, we are gathering the local fishing team to discuss how to find the king squid......" Albert said with a smile.
"Then why were you able to catch the king squid last time?" In his understanding, since he could catch it last time, it should also be able to catch it. This is his ignorance of the king squid, and if he knew, he wouldn't have said that.
Moore's words made Albert smile bitterly, it was Shuichi Minamino's fishing team that caught the king squid, not the fishing team under his company's name. But at that time, the results of catching this king squid were attributed to his company. That's why this Moore will continue to look for their company. Now that he and Shuichi Minamino are enemies, he can't wait to crush each other, how can he ask the other party for help?
"Hehe, I did catch the king squid last time, but I don't meet it every time I go out. Albert could only explain patiently. He knew that the person in front of him couldn't be offended, because he was the one who bought the special seafood nobleman last time. At this time, he wanted to scold the high-level officials of the company's headquarters. How can I say that this person can continue to catch the king squid and introduce it!
Well, now, if you can't catch the king squid, not to mention the commission, you may offend this person!
Albert was very distressed, and he also gathered the local fishing team he cooperated with and the fishing team under the name of the company a few days ago, and told them about the situation. However, these people all shook their heads and said that it was too difficult to catch the king squid. Many of them had never seen the king squid before, let alone fished it, and they didn't know where the king squid lived, and what the depth of their infestation was, and they didn't know how to find it at all? If it weren't for the king squid that Minamino Shuichi had caught and brought back, maybe they wouldn't have had the chance to see it in their lives!
"Damn!" Albert was tempted to jump to his feet and scold his mother now. Now he's in a mess.
"Tell you, if you can't be sure, then you just wait for the liquidated damages!" Moore laughed coldly. At the beginning, the high-level officials at the headquarters of the U.S. Imperial Ocean Fishing Company told him that he could catch king squid. But Albert said he wasn't sure, which annoyed him. In fact, this is not to blame the high-level leaders of the headquarters, but to blame Albert for saying that it was his own credit to catch the king squid at the time, and did not explain that the king squid fishing is very difficult and rare. That's why the people at the headquarters think that catching king squid is as easy as catching seafood.
"Mr. Moore, please give me a little more time. ”
At this time, Albert finally found Shuichi Minamino who was just next to the door. After seeing him, he always felt a sense of emptiness in his heart. Because the king squid is what he caught. But he thought it was okay, he couldn't understand English and probably didn't understand what he and Moore were talking about.
"Hmph, give you three days, otherwise you will wait for the liquidated damages. "Moore Dao.
"I will do my best. Albert smiled. He had already prepared for the worst at this time, even if the penalty was not very high. Because the deposit given by the other party at the beginning is not very high. Even if it is a loss, it is a company loss, and in the end, he will only be taught a lesson at most.
"Hello sir, I heard you want the king squid?" said Minamino Shuichi politely as he walked up.
"Huh?" Albert and Moore both snorted, Albert was surprised that Shuichi Minamino knew how to speak English, and the other was that he spoke quite purely. Moore was surprised that the passer-by ran up to him and asked, does he have the ability to catch the king squid?
"That's right. "Moore Dao.
"I can catch a king squid!" said Shunichi Minamino.
"Are you sure?" Moore was surprised at this moment, even Albert's U.S. Imperial Ocean Fishing Company had no way to do it, he was not sure that he would be able to catch it, and he dared to say that he could catch a king squid! This is like saying that a white-collar worker can't afford to drive a BMW, and suddenly a beggar on the side of the road says that I have a BMW at home.
"I'm pretty sure that last time my fleet caught a king squid and sold it to Albert's company. I don't believe you ask him!" Shuichi Minamino said, pointing at Albert.
"Albert?" Moore looked at Albert with puzzled eyes, didn't the king squid say that the fishing team under the name of the U.S. Imperial Ocean Fishing Company caught it?
In the face of Moore's questioning, Albert could only nod, although he did not want to say. But now that someone is on the top, he is still happy to shake the pot.
"How sure are you?" Moore asked, squinting.
"I'm sure I'll catch it!" said Shuichi Minamino seriously.
"Mr. Moore, since he was able to catch it last time, I think he should be able to catch it this time, so you can believe him once. Albert also helped. He didn't say this to say good things for his enemies, but to tactfully shake the pot! Anyway, he knew that his fishing team would definitely not be able to find the king squid. The local fishing teams can't find it. Because many people have never seen the king squid, how to catch it and how to find it? It can be said that the king squid was caught by Shuichi Minamino for the first time.
He thought at this time that if Shuichi Minamino couldn't catch the king squid this time, he would not only offend Moore, but also have to pay liquidated damages, and then the liquidated damages would definitely make Shuichi Minamino bankrupt! Even if he didn't go bankrupt, it would be enough to choke.
Of course, if his company wants to compensate for liquidated damages, then there is no problem for a huge company.
"That's good!"
"But how much do you pay commissions?" asked Shuichi Minamino. Of course he'd be happy if the commission could, but if it wasn't suitable, hehe, then I'm sorry.
"Well, I'll give you a $5,000 deposit, and another $5,000 if it's done! Remember, if you can't catch the king squid, wait for the liquidated damages." Think about it. "Moore Dao.
"Deal!" Nanno Xiu agreed without thinking about it, 10,000 US dollars, it is definitely a huge amount of money in this year!
Albert was amused, and he began to imagine that if Shuichi Minamino couldn't catch the king squid, then what was waiting for him was three times the liquidated damages. Triple that is 15,000 US dollars! Converted into yen, that's more than 5 million yen!
"Very well, I'll tell you more about signing the contract later. ”
Moore turned his head to Albert and said, "Do you plan to pay liquidated damages now, or see if you can catch the king squid and then pay it?"
Moore's words made Albert's face darken, but he knew that the matter would definitely be compensated. King squid, he simply can't catch it. The consequences will be eaten by those high-level leaders at the headquarters. Anyway, he was only scolded for being ineffective at most! Who told those guys to promise indiscriminately, and they even received a deposit in advance. Don't even ask yourself.
"Mr. Moore, this matter should be handled by headquarters, I can't handle it at the moment. Albert said.
"Good. ”
"By the way, my name is Moore, what's your name?" Moore asked, turning to Shuichi Minamino.
"My name is Shuichi Minamino. ”
"Very well, then let's talk about contracts. ”
Moore had come here to do something for his family's Miss Iloti Morgan. The last time I bought those rare seafood at the U.S. Imperial Ocean Fishing Company, it was actually Iloti's brother who bought it. His brother threw a big birthday party with the seafood. Iloti attended the banquet and was furious when she saw her brother using the king squid. Almost got into a fight with his brother.
Because Iloti is a university student, she is majoring in biological studies. So she was very curious about the king squid she saw for the first time! She thought it was a new species discovery. It is very valuable for research, even if it has no historical research value, it is better to make a specimen than to cook it, right?
So she almost scolded her brother on the spot!
The appearance of the king squid and some rare seafood made Iloti interested in research. So she plans to see with her own eyes how to catch king squid, it is best to study their living habits or something, and then she can make a research report on the king squid, she believes that it will definitely make a sensation in the marine life world at that time. Because she hadn't heard of the king squid either! This was definitely the first time humans had caught the king squid, but at the moment she thought it was. She also thinks she can get a specimen or something. So there was Moore's arrangement this time.
Originally, Moore also thought that the arrangement was good, but who knew that Albert actually said that he couldn't catch the king squid, didn't this make Moore anxious? Fortunately, now he met Shuichi Minamino, and this young man said that he could catch it! This solved Moore's urgent need, and he should be able to deal with it himself. (To be continued.) )
