Chapter 194 Zhao Dahai’s New Goal of Hard Work
"This speedboat is eight meters long. It is two and three meters wide."
"All stainless steel hull."
…
"A single four-stroke, 250-horsepower power system."
"It can run at a speed of over forty knots at four thousand two hundred revolutions."
…
"A four-hundred-liter oversized fuel tank."
"The range is more than two hundred nautical miles, which is more than three hundred and fifty kilometers when converted into kilometers."
…
"The market price is three hundred and five thousand."
…
Lu Mingzhi introduced carefully and patiently.
Zhao Dahai rushed to the speedboat factory in the city early in the morning. At first he was looking at small speedboats, but now he was looking at medium-sized speedboats, which were very good.
Zhao Dahai took a look at another larger speedboat with two planes parked not far ahead. He wanted to go and have a look but gave up. The one under his feet could no longer be bought, so there was no need to look at better ones.
"Boss Zhao. What do you think of this boat?"
Lu Mingzhi finished introducing the entire speedboat.
"good!"
"very good!"
"To be honest. I don't have enough money now, so I have to work harder to earn it."
Zhao Dahai really thinks it's good. There's nothing bad to say about not having enough money. If you have it, you have it, if you don't have it, it won't be embarrassing, just make money.
"Then should we consider a smaller one?"
Lu Mingzhi pointed to a smaller speedboat he had seen.
Zhao Dahai shook his head. I bought the speedboat because I wanted to run faster and farther. The speed of the speedboat is indeed faster but the battery life is short. It is impossible to carry two extra large fuel tanks all day. In addition, the speedboat has a small hull and poor wind and wave resistance. No matter how much oil you have, you can’t go far, and you can’t achieve your goal. This is essentially the same as your own wooden boat with dual diesel engines. They are all fishing boats that turn around in the inland sea.
Zhao Dahai didn't leave the speedboat factory until three o'clock in the afternoon.
Lu Mingzhi stood at the door of the shipyard, watching Zhao Dahai leave before turning around and walking back.
"Brother Lu!"
"That kid is finally gone!?"
"Good guy! I've been here for almost a day. I didn't even eat lunch. I kept asking. Fortunately, I met you, Brother Lu, who has such a good temper. I wouldn't have been able to stand it!"
…
"ha!"
“The key is to just don’t buy it!”
…
Lu Mingzhi smiled and didn't answer. He spent a lot of time introducing various types of speedboats to Zhao Dahai today, including running around the sea for two laps. It was true that he didn't make any business, but he didn't feel that his efforts were wasted at all. I have been in this business for five years, and I don't know how many people have come to buy speedboats. Some of them know that they can't make a deal at first glance, but some of them can definitely make a deal at first glance. Zhao Dahai knows that they can make a deal at first glance.
Lu Mingzhi noticed that when Zhao Dahai looked at the speedboat, especially the speedboat worth 4 to 50 yuan, his eyes were filled with desire. If Zhao Dahai was in his forties or fifties, this business would most likely not be successful, but he was only in his early twenties and had plenty of time to save money. I won’t buy it today, I won’t buy it tomorrow, I won’t buy it in a year or two, but I will buy it one day. As long as his service is good enough and the price he offers is realistic enough, as long as Zhao Dahai has enough money and wants to buy it, he will at least make another trip to inquire about the price and shop around, and his chance will come.
These people in the company are eager to buy the speedboat as soon as someone sees it.
How can this be?
Speedboats ranging from hundreds of thousands to three to five hundred thousand or even nearly one million are not toys worth a hundred or tens of dollars. It is impossible to decide on them after just one glance.
Lu Mingzhi poured a glass of water, took a sip, sat down, and took a rest. Today is a little tired, but everything is worth it. He is confident that he will be able to complete this business sometime in the future, and this time will not be too long.
Zhao Dahai returned to Langtou Village, instead of going home directly, he went to the pier and walked towards the beach. After a while, he arrived at the reef area at the east end of the village, climbed up the highest rock, and sat down. Below, the sea is filled with golden sunshine, and the sea breeze blows in your face, which is very comfortable.
Zhao Dahai's restless heart slowly calmed down.
I watched a day of speedboating today. I can afford a small speedboat, but I don't like it or use it.
A good speedboat costs at least three to five hundred thousand, and the money on hand was not enough.
Zhao Dahai's eyes widened. He couldn't see clearly as the sea and sky met in the distance. It was said that seventy or eighty nautical miles away, there were many power-generating windmills and many small islands. It was a large natural fishing ground with more fish. Only in such a place can there be enough fish to solve the current dilemma of not having many fish to catch.
What's the use of a runabout? You can’t run to a place like that! Just buy the big one! Just buy it!
Zhao Dahai gritted his teeth and made up his mind. Next, he would work harder to go fishing, even catch fish, and earn enough money to buy a big speedboat in one step.
Zhao Dahai got off the reef and walked slowly back along the beach. When he got home, he chatted with his grandma Zhong Cuihua for a while. He looked at the vegetable garden behind the house and started cooking dinner.
Zhao Dahai finished dinner, took a shower, walked back to his room, did some calculations, and found that he had made a lot of money during this period, more than two hundred thousand without knowing it.
"hehe!"
"It's not too far from three to five million!"
"Work hard!"
"Buy a big speedboat worth four to five hundred thousand!"
Zhao Dahai clenched his fist tightly and decided to work harder. He would lie in bed and get up early tomorrow to continue fishing.
Six o'clock in the morning.
Fishing boats that went fishing in the early morning came back one after another, and the pier was very lively.
"Cuttlefish!"
"Black snapper!"
"Sandfish!"
Zhao Dahai made a circle. The fishing boats that went out to sea caught a lot of fish, shrimps and crabs. The impact of the typhoon finally passed and things slowly returned to normal.
"The sea!"
Zhao Dahai heard someone calling him, looked up and saw three fishing boats, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Da, slowly docking at the dock. He walked over, waited for the three people's fishing boats to park, and boarded Zhong Shizhu's fishing boat.
"Yo!"
“What a harvest today!”
“These skinned fish are so big!”
Zhao Dahai looked at the two large baskets on the deck. They were all full of large skinned fish as big as two palms. This must be the result of the fishing net being put into the sea and just hitting the fish school to get such a harvest.
"ha!"
"We were really lucky today. A few of us went out to sea together, found a place, and set up fishing nets. Everyone caught almost two hundred kilograms of fish."
Liu Bin laughed loudly.
"Why!"
"It's a pity that it's not a small skinned fish. If it were a small skinned fish, it would make more money!"
Lei Dayou shook his head.
There are many kinds of skinned fish. The most common ones are the large ones caught by people like Zhong Shizhu and Liu Bin. They are relatively large and can usually grow as big as two palms. However, the price of this kind of skinned fish is not as good as that of smaller ones. Skin the fish. Small skinned fish are generally only as big as a palm, but the price is twice that of large skinned fish.
"The big skinned fish must cost at least thirty yuan a pound."
"If it's two hundred pounds, that's six to seven thousand yuan."
"That's pretty good!"
Zhao Dahai was happy. This is the case for people who go fishing at sea. When they can't catch any fish, they can use any kind of fish they want, as long as they are in quantity, any amount is money. But once I catch a fish, I think it will be a bigger fish or a more valuable fish.
"Lei Dayou!"
"Come on! When was the last time you caught so many fish and made so much money!? I'm talking about the fish we caught, the sea bass we caught that time based on Zhao Dahai's information. It doesn’t count.”
…
"The human heart is not enough for a snake to swallow an elephant!"
“When I caught a big skinned fish, I thought why not a small skinned fish?”
"Why don't you think it's a giant yellow croaker? A two-hundred-pound giant yellow croaker can be retired in no time!"
…
"Yo!"
"Am I the only one who thinks this way?"
"Have you never thought that this little skinned fish can make more money?"
"correct!"
"A few days ago, someone actually set up a net and caught a large yellow croaker. But it was not big, no more than two fingers wide!"
…
"How about we go look for big yellow croaker tomorrow? If we can catch one weighing two to three pounds, we will make a fortune!"
…
"Go ahead!"
"I won't be so brainless! A giant yellow croaker? It's like looking for a needle in a haystack! If you come across it, you'll come across it! Can you find it if you can't come across it? What the hell if you can find it!"
"Besides! God knows if this person really caught a big yellow croaker!"
"Maybe this is a joke!"
…
Zhao Dahai got on his fishing boat, left the dock, and drove out to the sea. The depressed mood of not being able to catch fish in the past few days suddenly disappeared. Today, the people who set out fishing nets at the dock had a good harvest, and there were many fish in the sea. Come back slowly, you will definitely be able to catch fish today.
Three or four o'clock in the afternoon.
It's very hot on the sea.
The sun was starting to set in the west, which was very scary.
Zhao Dahai felt that his eyes were going to be blinded by the light. He squinted his eyes and saw the tip of the pole moving a few times. He stretched out his hand and gently picked up the pole. The tip of the pole didn't move for a while. If he hadn't concentrated, he would have missed it. He must have felt Are you dazzled?
Holding the pole, Zhao Dahai stretched it forward, and the tight line loosened. After waiting for two minutes, the tip of the pole began to shake again, and the pole did not stab the fish. Loose, continue to wait, the tip of the rod once again remained motionless, and after another two minutes, it shook a few times quickly and pulled the fishing line away.
"coming!"
"Finally waiting for you!"
Zhao Dahai raised his hand and lifted the pole, bent the pole, and pulled a fish out of the water. The yellow bream, which weighed about a catty, took the net and picked up the fish, carried it onto the fishing boat, took the hook and threw it into the live cabin.
Zhao Dahai shook his head. The yellow bream is indeed a good fish, and the price is much higher than that of the black bream. However, it takes too much time to catch such a fish. For one thing, there will not be a large school of fish. If you catch two or three, three or four, it will be gone. You have to change places, and the other one is that the mouth of this fish is very fine, you have to grind the fish, and it takes about ten minutes to catch one. It’s not that there are no fish today, there are fish at several points but they are all yellow bream. It’s been about ten hours since the morning, and after changing five or six points, there are all yellow bream and no black bream.
Zhao Dahai took a look at the live cabin, and after fishing for a long time, there was only one small mud shrimp left. I bought less in the morning, caught it and hung it on the hook, and cast the rod out to land in almost the same place. Three yellow breams have been caught here. The size is good, the water is relatively deep, about ten meters, there is a little running water, the yellow bream group should be a little bigger, wait for another hour or two, and go home if there is no fish. It is too late to change to another point at this time. After catching seven or eight kilograms of fish, I have earned enough money for food, fuel, and wages. It is impossible to earn thousands of yuan by catching fish weighing more than 100 kilograms every day.
"Yo?"
"How is this going?"
"Is it so straightforward this time?"
"No more grinding?"
Zhao Dahai had just put down the rod, and shook the tip of the rod a few times. He was not in a hurry. The yellow sea bream was very unresponsive. The few shakes were fake and then a few more shakes were serious.
Zhao Dahai was very calm. Just as he was about to sit down and take a sip of water, the tip of the pole shook violently a few times and was dragged away. He was startled and quickly reached out to grab the fish with the pole.
bingo!
Zhao Dahai breathed a sigh of relief. The fish was unreasonable, thinking that the yellow snapper didn't pay attention and almost ran away. He controlled the fish for a while, but with little strength, he pulled it out of the water in twos and twos.
"Golden?"
"Huanggu fish?"
"Spring fish?"
"ah?"
"wrong!"
Zhao Dahai's eyes suddenly widened, and his heart beat wildly uncontrollably.
