Chapter 1101 Keep Your Tail Between Your Legs
"Hmm!"
"You have to handle this matter, Dad."
"I'm a little worried that my elder brother Ding Jie and my second brother Ding Weijun can't help themselves. If they set a trap for others, it will be a big trouble!"
"No one knows whether the fish sellers are real fishermen, or other buyers who are looking for trouble to arouse public anger."
"We must be careful!"
"Wait for a while, even a year or two, and then slowly start to collect fish."
"Our family has finally got such an opportunity, and we must not mess it up."
Ding Xiaoxiang didn't think Ding Chongshan was making a fuss at all. On the contrary, she really had to do it.
The wharf of Shijiao Village is not the wharf of her own village. If she wants to do business, she can do business. If she does business in another place, she must be careful.
The most important thing is that she must not arouse the hatred of the original colleagues who are already doing business here.
Relying on her relationship with Zhao Dahai, her family did not buy the fish on the sea fishing boat at the wharf of Shijiao Village. No one can say anything about any problem, but if you intervene in the fish of other fishing boats at the dock with great fanfare at the beginning, that is another matter.
It is not impossible to do this, and this is what my family wants to do in the future, but it must not be done at the beginning.
You have to see the opportunity and find the right time to start purchasing fish from other fishing boats.
"Yes!"
"The eldest and second female brothers have less experience in doing business. Another more important thing is that they are thinking about expanding the family business and want to make more money. It is very likely that they have really been calculated by others."
Ding Chongshan knows very well what Ding Jie and Ding Weijun are thinking. Doing business is not a simple thing. Many things must be figured out. The most important thing is to be careful of the calculations of other peers.
Ding Xiaoxiang is younger than Ding Jie and Ding Weijun, and much younger, but she has been doing business with me and Zhang Li since she was a child. In this regard, she is even more powerful. Ding Jie and Ding Weijun are older, but they are far inferior to Ding Xiaoxiang in this regard.
This opportunity is really rare.
The wharf of my village is the wharf where I do business now. The land or the shares of fish, shrimp and crabs purchased there have been determined long ago. Without special circumstances, there will be no change at all. Everyone can only purchase part of it.
If you want to expand the scale of your business and make more money, you can only go to other places to purchase fish, shrimp and crabs, but there are already enough buyers for fish, shrimp and crabs in other places.
The same is true for the Shijiao Village wharf. Now I take this opportunity to get involved. I must not be careless and must wait for a long enough period of time before slowly starting to purchase fish, shrimp and crabs at the Shijiao Village wharf.
Ding Xiaoxiang and Ding Chongshan discussed this matter and left immediately and rushed back to the Shijiao Village wharf.
"Dad!"
"Why did Xiaoxiang come today? And why did you leave?"
"When I met him just now, I called him, and he just said hello and said he had something to do and left immediately!"
Ding Jie walked in with sweat on his head, followed by Ding Weijun who was also sweating.
Ding Chongshan talked about Ding Xiaoxiang's visit to him just now, and also said that Ding Dawen's fishing boat would return to the dock tonight. Ding Xiaoxiang had a lot of things to do, and after finishing this serious matter, she left and rushed back to Shijiao Village Dock.
Ding Jie and Ding Weijun looked at each other, surprised and happy, and did not expect that Ding Xiaoxiang would talk about this matter.
"Dad!"
"This matter has not been settled? This is a very important matter for a business like ours!"
Ding Jie immediately asked, this matter is really very important, as long as his family buys the fish from the sea fishing boat that Zhao Dahai and Shi Jiehua cooperated with, the next step is to buy the fish from other fishing boats at Shijiao Village Dock, and the scale of the business will expand a lot at once.
"Is there any need to say more? If we can't reach an agreement, how could Xiaoxiang come to us to talk about this?"
"Besides, even if we don't make money, we have to take this on."
Ding Chongshan poured two cups of tea and placed them in front of Ding Jie and Ding Weijun. When Xiaoxiang talked to him just now, she didn't mention the purchase price. There was no need to mention this matter at all. The price I offered was definitely higher than that of other buyers. I was really not kidding. I had to take this matter even if I had to pay for it.
Why?
It was for an opportunity to do business at Shijiao Village Wharf.
"Great! Great!"
"It won't take much time for us to purchase the fish from other fishing boats at Shijiao Village Wharf!"
"Dad!"
"We have to hurry up and find a store at Shijiao Village Wharf. Otherwise, how can we do business?"
Ding Jie waved his fist excitedly.
"Oh?"
"Do you two think the same way?"
Ding Chongshan frowned, looked at Ding Jie, and then looked at Ding Weijun.
"Ah?"
"Is it not like this?"
"We must find a shop, otherwise how can we buy the fish, shrimp and crabs caught by other fishing boats at the Shijiao Village Wharf? We can't work directly on the wharf, right?"
"It's okay to be exposed to the wind and sun, but this town can't work. There is no such place for us to do such things!"
Ding Weijun was a little strange, and didn't know why Ding Chongshan said such a thing.
Ding Chongshan sighed softly and shook his head. To be honest, he already knew in his heart that Ding Jie and Ding Weijun's views on this matter were not as good as Ding Xiaoxiang's. They must have thought about finishing work earlier, and the fish, shrimp and crabs at the Shijiao Village Wharf, but now when he really heard that Ding Jie and Ding Weijun had such thoughts, he couldn't help but be very disappointed.
"Humph!"
"Is this matter as simple as you think?"
"It seems that you are still a long way to go before you can be independent!"
Ding Chongshan was a little disappointed, and glared at Ding Jie and Ding Weijun fiercely.
Ding Jie and Ding Weijun couldn't help scratching their hair on the back of their heads, wondering why Ding Chongshan would say such a thing.
"Dad!"
"This is a rare opportunity to expand our family's business. Could it be that we are only buying the fish from Zhao Dahai and Shi Jiehua's sea fishing boats at Shijiao Village Wharf? Could it be that we won't buy the fish caught by other fishing boats out to sea?"
Ding Jie really couldn't figure this out. He could see that Ding Chongshan definitely wanted to, or definitely planned to buy the fish from other fishing boats at Shijiao Village Wharf, but now Ding Chongshan is saying that his and Ding Weijun's ideas are wrong. Isn't this contradictory?
"Huh!"
"Who said that we won't buy the fish from other fishing boats at Shijiao Village Wharf?"
"If you don't do such a good business and don't seize such an opportunity to make money, then you have a problem with your brain, right?"
Ding Chongshan shook his head.
"Dad!"
"What do you mean by that? Why don't I understand? One moment you say you want to buy the fish, shrimp and crabs from the Shijiao Village wharf, and the next moment you say you don't want to buy them. What's going on?"
Ding Weijun was just as confused, and really couldn't figure out what was going on.
Ding Chongshan drank the hot tea he had just brewed, and he carefully recounted the entire matter he had discussed with Ding Xiaoxiang not long ago.
"Who said we won't buy the fish caught or caught by other fishing boats at Shijiao Village Wharf?"
"But when to buy, this is something that needs to be carefully considered!"
"One is that we must find out the situation at Shijiao Village Wharf, including how many fishing boats go out to sea and how many fish they can bring back, including other purchase situations."
"Another very important thing is that we must let the people at Shijiao Village Wharf get used to us doing business there."
"This is not a matter of one or two months, nor is it a matter of three or five months."
"At least it will take a year or two."
Ding Chongshan looked at Ding Jie and Ding Weijun sitting opposite him. Sooner or later, the family business will have to be handed over to these two brothers. Things like this must be explained clearly and in detail in order to gain experience and knowledge.
"What you two brothers have learned while working in companies outside these years is not useless, but there are many things you don't understand or notice when doing business at home at the dock."
"No matter what you do, you must think it through carefully. You can't just do whatever you want."
"We are businessmen. As long as we make more money, we are stealing other people's business, which is equivalent to stealing other people's money."
"If it were you, would you give up?"
"No matter where you do business, as long as new people come, they will definitely steal business."
"The people who originally did business in this place will definitely unite to deal with this newcomer."
"As soon as our family appears at the Shijiao Village Dock, other buyers will know what we want to do."
"You are thinking about buying fish, shrimps and crabs there right away. Isn't this just asking for death?"
"You have to keep your tail between your legs at the beginning!"
Ding Chongshan reminded Ding Jie and Ding Weijun that they must pay attention to this matter. This is not a joke.
Ding Jie and Ding Weijun were sweating all over their heads, and then they understood. What's going on here?
"Leave the business at the wharf to you two brothers!"
"I'll handle the affairs at Shijiao Village Wharf myself."
"Sometimes, one of you two brothers can go there with me for a few rounds."
"Just make yourself familiar with me!"
Ding Chongshan made arrangements in a few words.
The affairs of Shijiao Village Wharf must not be handed over to Ding Jie and Ding Weijun. These two brothers are responsible for it and must go there in person.
Ding Jie and Ding Weijun had no objection. When they first heard about this matter, they thought it was no big deal. Now after listening to the reason behind it, they found that they might not be able to deal with it.
"The family business is now very big. It is no longer the same as it was at the beginning. Regardless of the consequences, or even if you know that you have robbed other people's business and cut off other people's wealth, you have to bite the bullet and rush forward. You have to be patient when doing things."
Ding Chongshan spoke earnestly. Ding Jie and Ding Weijun must learn these things. It is impossible for them to keep an eye on the family business all their lives. In another ten or eight years, they will be getting older and older, and they will be powerless.
Ding Jie and Ding Weijun nodded seriously. There is nothing to say about such things. If they have such skills, they have to nod and admit it.
Ding Chongshan told Ding Jie and Ding Weijun that Ding Dawen's fishing boat will return to the fish farm at the Shijiao Village Pier tonight to unload fish. There is nothing else to do at home. After dinner, they will go there early to see if there is anything they can help with.
Ding Jie and Ding Weijun nodded and agreed.
Shijiao Village.
Shi Guangming walked to Du Wen's door and saw a familiar person coming out.
"Yo!"
"Boss Zheng."
"Why do I see you here?"
Shi Guangming greeted Zheng Tie and immediately thought of something in his mind.
Zheng Tie wanted to take over the fish farm at Shijiao Village Wharf, but was intercepted by Zhao Hai, Ding Xiaoxiang and others.
Now he came to Du Wen for something, and it is very likely related to the fish farm.
"Ha!"
"Isn't it because I haven't met Boss Du Wen for a while? There happened to be something going on at the wharf today. After the work is done, I still have time to come and visit."
Zheng Tie's heart skipped a beat. He didn't expect to meet Shi Guangming here, but since they had already met, he must say hello, and he forced a smile on his face.
Zheng Tie said a few words, made up an excuse to say that he had other things to do, and turned around and left in a hurry.
Shi Guangming watched Zheng Tie walk away for a while, and now he was 100% sure that Zheng Tie came here to find Du Wen, and it was really possible that it was about the fish farm.
Could it be that Zheng Tie was planning to take over the empty sea area next to it? Did he want to build a fish farm nearby if he wanted to take it?
The more Shi Guangming thought about it, the more he felt that it was very likely to be like this.
"Hmph!"
"What are you thinking?"
"It would be fine if the village didn't rent out that sea surface, but once it was rented out, when would it be your turn, Zheng Tie, to ask for it?"
Shi Guangming sneered, yelled at Du Wen loudly, and pushed open the door and walked directly into the yard.
"Yo!"
"What the hell is going on with you? Why are you here?"
Du Wen heard Shi Guangming's shout, walked out of the room, looked up at the sun in the sky, and felt a little strange. Shi Guangming shouldn't come here at this time. Even if he wanted to eat at his house, he had to wait until the sun went down.
