Chapter 145: Returning to Hong Kong to Sell Fish I
Seeing this situation and seeing everyone's expectant eyes, Li Xiaofeng simply decided not to rest, and directly began to change the course and return immediately!
In this way, the "Harvest" fishing boat, loaded with all kinds of seafood, began to embark on its return journey.
The fishing boat sails all the way north.
People rest, the boat does not rest, Li Xiaofeng and Li Yonglin take turns to drive, and sometimes Li Yongmin and Zhang Jianjun will also come over to change the drive.
On the way back, Li Xiaofeng, who was not going to put the net down, found a large group of hairtail fish on the map, and finally he couldn't help but drive the fishing boat over and drag another net.
Good guy, this net dragged more than 30,000 catties of hairtail!
Now the freezer is basically full, and there is almost no place to put the fish when you drag them up.
Li Xiaofeng simply stopped paying attention to the map, and simply concentrated on driving the boat back, otherwise he would see fish again, but there was no way to catch it, which would be more uncomfortable.
In this way, the fishing boat drove at sea for nearly 30 hours before approaching the waters near their Jiangzhou City.
When they arrived at the offshore, after the mobile phone signaled, the crew took out their mobile phones one after another and called their homes to report their safety, after all, it was more than a week to go out, and there was no signal in the open sea, so it can be said that there was no news at all.
Li Xiaofeng didn't call his mother at this time, mainly because he couldn't help but use the ship's satellite phone to report his mother's safety this morning.
And I also told my mother about the approximate time when their ship would return to port.
Newer offshore fishing vessels like theirs are now mandated to be equipped with satellite phones.
This is mainly to prevent these fishing vessels from making an emergency distress alarm in the event of an accident.
In addition, in the event of a sudden disaster weather, the maritime department can also contact them urgently.
It has to be said that fishermen are also a high-risk industry!
Moreover, the state is now speeding up the construction of a satellite monitoring system for large and medium-sized fishing vessels. At that time, you can directly monitor and track the fishing boats at sea in real time.
Li Xiaofeng feels that this is all a good thing, and he is also very supportive.
Alas! It would be better if the state could reduce the cost of this satellite phone call!
For a satellite phone like the one they use on their fishing boat, domestic calls cost more than six yuan a minute, and if they are used outside the border, they have to add an additional eight yuan a minute for international roaming.
And this kind of phone is still charged in both directions, and it costs money to make and receive calls.
It is said that they are quite cheap, and they have the kind of satellite phone with wider coverage, and a one-minute call is said to cost more than 30 yuan!
Which crew member would you say would be willing to use this satellite phone to make and receive calls?
So if it's not an emergency, there's really no one willing to use this big baby.
At this time, Li Yonglin, Li Yongmin and Zhang Jianjun were also on the phone, not to call home, but to contact some of their old customers and some seafood wholesalers they knew.
Some small and expensive fish are ready to be sold directly to some seafood restaurants, but those seafood with relatively large quantities can only be wholesaled to those seafood wholesalers.
Because they are the only ones who use channels to sell these large quantities of seafood at once.
However, although they are going to wholesale them to seafood wholesalers, they are going to contact more seafood wholesalers and compare them with each other to see who has the higher price.
After all, such a large amount is a pound or two of a pound taller, which is also a lot of money.
The fishing boat drove for another four or five hours before approaching the fishing port in Tongchuan Town.
When the fishing boat "Harvest" sailed into the port, it was exactly six or seven o'clock in the morning.
At this time, a round of morning sun had just risen from the sea, and the golden sunlight seemed to coat the entire port and the sea surface with a layer of gold.
The towering lighthouse next to the pier was also crossed with a layer of gold, which looked golden under the morning sun.
This port, which everyone once thought was ordinary, is so beautiful and kind in everyone's eyes at this moment!
At this time, most of the people who came back from the port were small fishing boats that had caught fish in the nearby waters for a night.
Among the small fishing boats, their large fishing boat of more than 40 meters really has a feeling of being in a flock of chickens, and many people on the pier can't help but look at the behemoth in front of them.
And most of them also know that this was once the fishing boat of Daniel Zhang, the "former richest man in Tongchuan", so many people are concerned about whether this fishing boat can continue its previous glory after changing owners.
Li Xiaofeng slowly drove the fishing boat to the dock, which was specially used to unload large and medium-sized fishing boats.
Now the state has been encouraging fishermen to change large boats for small boats, and wooden boats for iron boats, so the town government has also responded to the call of the state and built a special berth on the wharf for large and medium-sized fishing boats to berth and unload.
This is a specially built unloading platform on the water, and after the fishing boat is sideways, the conveyor belt used to unload the fishing boat can be put on it.
Of course, there is also a charge for this use.
After Li Xiaofeng slowly parked the fishing boat horizontally, Li Xiaoliang was the first to get off the fishing boat and fixed the cable on the boat to the pillar specially used to fix the fishing boat on the wharf.
Then Li Yonglin, Li Yongmin and Zhang Jianjun also followed behind and got off the fishing boat.
They were followed by two crew members, who remained on board for the time being.
They can't go home at this time, because they will be responsible for unloading all the fish from the fishing boat through the conveyor belt.
At this time, there were already many people standing on the wharf next to the fishing boat, and more than a dozen large and small refrigerated trucks specially used for cold chain transportation were parked.
Li Xiaofeng's mother Liu Xuexia, Li Yongmin's wife Wang Yufen, Zhang Jianjun's wife Yu Xiuyun, and all three of them also stood in the crowd.
Most of the others were seafood wholesalers called by Li Yonglin and the three of them, some restaurant purchasers or owners, and Zhang Jianjun's cousin Ma Mingxi was also standing in the crowd with a spring breeze on his face.
His cousin Zhang Jianjun could call him first, so he knew that there were a lot of rare goods on the ship.
Since his cousin helped him take the line of Li Yonglin's house, it can be said that he has completely reversed the predicament faced by the hotel at that time, and it can even be said that he has grabbed many competitors' customers with high eyebrows!
So in today's situation, he must come over in person, first, to purchase some rare goods while the fishing boat has just returned, and to maintain this relationship between the two sides.
Li Yonglin and the three of them went down to greet these bosses, after all, this relationship is mutually beneficial.
And it is not strange that Chinese pay attention to etiquette, so etiquette must be there.
