Zhao Dahai's meal was enjoyed from noon to evening, and he sent Zhong Shizhu and Lei Dayou back to the courtyard, cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks on the table, took two large cups, grabbed the tea leaves and put boiling water in them and washed them down.

"Second grandfather."

"I'm going to go to town tomorrow to see the diesel."

Zhao Dahai took a sip of hot tea, drank a lot of wine, and sweat immediately came out. Fishing boats have already begun to test the waters, and diesel engines must be bought as soon as possible.

"What do you think?"

Zhao Shi smoked his cigarette pipe.

Zhao Dahai had already pondered about this matter and decided to buy two diesel engines, both of which were twenty-five horses, and together they were fifty horses, which was enough for his own fishing boat, and the speed was good. Why not just buy a fifty horse? One is fuel-efficient and the other is safe. If you don't run too far or the speed is not too fast, a 25-horsepower diesel engine is enough, and if you only have a 50-horsepower diesel engine, you have to use 50 horsepower at any time, which is twice the fuel consumption. Even more important is safety. A diesel engine is broken, and there is a diesel engine that can be used. The ship's biggest enemy on the sea is not the wind, not the waves, but the loss of power. No matter how big the wind and waves, as long as the fishing boat has power, there is a chance to survive, small winds and small waves, once the fishing boat has no power, no one can say what will happen.

"Okay!"

"That's it."

"Is there enough money?"

Zhao Shi's old experience, Zhao Dahai's plan to understand as soon as he heard it, a twenty-five-horsepower diesel engine is almost enough, and if there are two, the most important thing is to consider safety. But one more diesel engine costs twice as much, the idea is good, but you have to have money to buy it.

Zhao Dahai nodded, the money in hand is enough, the main purpose of buying dismantling materials is to save money to buy a diesel engine, if it is not enough, buy a new one to buy a second-hand, if it is not good, both buy second-hand, gasoline engines are more expensive, second-hand is easy to have problems, diesel engines are durable, second-hand will indeed consume a little more fuel, not easy to have problems, maintenance is relatively simple and convenient.

The night was dark.

Thick fog filled.

Zhao Dahai sent Zhao Shi back with a flashlight, and when he came back, he saw Zhong Cuihua pushing open the door and coming out, and when he saw it, he knew that he was going to water the fruit tree saplings, and shouted that he would go, but Zhong Cuihua refused, and went to the back of the house together.

Zhao Dahai was happy to see it, grandma Zhong Cuihua was worried that the chickens and ducklings ate the leaves of the fruit trees, and they were all covered with chicken cages, which were half a meter high and one meter in diameter from bamboo, and there was a round hole cover with a diameter of about twenty centimeters on the top, which can be used to protect chickens from cats and dogs, including rats, when raising chickens, the old chicken cage is nothing, but this is a new chicken cage specially bought, which is very precious and a few fruit tree seedlings.

Zhao Dahai poured water, looked at the vegetable field carefully, has been busy with the matter of the fishing boat, has not come for a while, needless to say, the green vegetables grow green, each one can be eaten, and it is impossible to eat it when it is planted. These carob loofahs have climbed up the shelves, almost as high as their shoulders, and some have grown flower bones, and they will bloom in a few days.

After watering a few fruit trees, Zhong Cuihua gestured to buy some chickens and ducklings around a place to raise them.

Zhao Dahai thought about it, he really has to do this, not to mention anything else, these vegetables in the vegetable field will definitely not be eaten by himself and his grandmother Zhong Cuihua, and the elders will waste it if they stay in the field, buy a few chickens and ducks and come back to raise, they can be slaughtered and eaten during the New Year's holidays, and they can be brought with them when they go to relatives.

"Grandma!"

"I'll go to town tomorrow to see the diesel."

"If it's convenient, buy a few chicks and ducklings to come back. Forget about the goose. It's so noisy! ”

……

"Okay!"

"You're free to buy it back."

……

Zhao Dahai and Zhong Cuihua went back to the house while talking.

Seven o'clock in the morning.

The town is a street of agricultural machinery.

Ding Lihua rode a motorcycle, parked in front of the largest shop on the street, looked at the sign hanging "Lihua Marine Machinery Wholesale Department", opened the roller shutter door, and began to work, ten various diesel engines or automobile engines pulled out, five of each on both sides of the store door, and then cleaned up the store, and finally cleaned it up, and saw that the time was less than eight o'clock.

Ding Lihua glanced at the whole street, no shop opened, a little proud in his heart, this year is the tenth year of the store, the business is getting bigger and better, two secrets, one is high quality and low price, and the other is to open the store one or two hours earlier than others every day, don't underestimate one or two hours earlier, you can have two or three more businesses in a month, and the money earned by the machine will be repaired or something, and you can earn two or three thousand more. Tired of doing this? How can you make money without getting tired? It's not tiring to lie down and sleep at home, but do you have money? Wait to drink the northwest wind.

Ding Lihua walked into the store, boiled water to make tea, and waited for the guests to come to the door.

"Boss."

"What do you want to buy? Speedboat or boat? ”

……

"This is an imported nose. One hundred and sixty horsepower. A speedboat that runs the deep sea, preferably with twin engines. One is horsepower and fast, and the other is safety. ”

"But this thing burns oil so badly!"

……

Ding Lihua had a warm smile on his face, and kept greeting him, until it was almost twelve o'clock, when he was a little free to take a breath, sent off a guest, and turned around and walked back to the store.

"Second uncle."

"You're good enough for this business!"

Sun Li came over half an hour ago, Ding Lihua's business is good, people come one after another, just sent away this one bought two speedboat gasoline engines that are 160 horsepower, this one makes a lot of money, plus the follow-up parts maintenance or something, and has to earn one after another, this is the third business done in the morning.

"Sister-in-law."

"I heard my brother say that business has been good lately? Ready to plate a stall next door? ”

Ding Lihua sat down, took a sip of tea, and nodded, the business in the store is really good, Sun Li is his eldest brother Ding Chongshan's wife and sister-in-law, there is nothing to hide.

"There is this idea. But can it become known. The business of the stall next door is not as good as ours, and I can't stand watching our family make money every day, so I want to change hands. Let's see if we can make it! ”

"There are two things that came over today, one is to bring a fish for my nephew, and the other is that your eldest brother has a friend who wants a gasoline engine, and the horses are larger, and they are loaded on a big speedboat. I'll come to the store tomorrow night and say it's a big boss, so I have to say hello. ”

Zhang Li pointed to a plastic bag on the ground.

Ding Lihua opened the plastic bag and saw that it was a horse gelatin fish of four or five catties, which was worth a lot of money, you are welcome, he and his eldest brother Ding Chongshan can make money, not bad. The gasoline engine matter was immediately agreed, which was to pull business for himself.

"Someone's coming!"

"Sister-in-law. You sit for a while. I've got to say hello first! ”

Ding Lihua heard a sound at the door of the store, and as soon as a motorcycle stopped, he immediately stood up and greeted him.

Zhang Li looked up and was stunned for a moment.

Zhao Dahai?

How did you get here?

Zhang Li immediately stood up and walked to the store to avoid it, Zhao Dahai knew that he didn't want to see him, and he might have ruined Ding Lihua's business here.
