Rebirth of Fishing Village: Starting from Hua Axiang in Jiehu Village

Chapter 1082 The more money you make, the better

Shek Kok Village Pier.

"That one looks like it belongs to our fish fillet!"

Zhao Dahai slowed down and looked around. He immediately saw that there was something vaguely visible at a place a thousand meters away. It might be the fish fillet. He remembered that there was no such thing at that place before.

Zhao Shi immediately said he would go and take a look.

Zhao Dahai turned the bow of the speedboat and drove over, arriving at the small place in less than a moment.

correct!
The fish raft is under construction. Ding Xiaoxiang, Ding Ailian, Ma Baozhu and Shi Guangming are all on it.

Yue Hai saw that the fish raft had been built more than halfway, so he moved closer, stopped, tied the cable and got on the fish raft.

"Second Grandpa!"

"Master!"

"Uncle Lin!"

"Why are you all back?"

Ding Xiaoxiang walked over quickly.

Zhao Dahai said that the wind and waves were relatively strong at the artificial islands and reefs, so it was impossible to go out to sea to fish, so he simply came back here to take a look at the fish farms.

"Are the winds and waves outside quite strong? We don't really feel that here at the pier!"

Ding Xiaoxiang shook her head. If she couldn't go out to sea to fish, it was because the wind and waves were really strong. However, there wasn't much wind at the pier. There were just a lot of fishing boats parked. It seemed that the wind was strong outside and there was no way to catch fish. So they all came back. However, she had been busy with the fish farm these two days and didn't pay attention to it.

Ding Xiaoxiang took Zhao Dahai, Zhao Shi, Lin Zuhua and her father Ding Chongshan for a walk around the fish steaks.

"Looking at this progress, shouldn't it be completed in two or three days?"

Ding Chongshan was a little surprised. More than 50% to 60% of the building had been completed in just a few days. This speed was really fast.

"We'll need it right after we take this place, so we must hurry up."

"Ding Xiaoxiang has made it clear to the people who built this fish farm that they must hurry up and complete it within five to six days. Now they are working 24 hours a day, so the speed is so fast."

Shi Guangming pointed at the people who were working and said that the speed was really good, but they had to pay a lot more.

"We must hurry up!"

"We are in a hurry to use it!"

"The fishing moratorium will be over in about a month. We have to start fishing now to keep the fish alive. There is no space on the fishing boats for this."

"In a few days, our sea fishing boats will have to come back, and we will definitely have to keep some of the fish."

Zhao Dahai strongly agreed that they should hurry up and build the fish farm, even if it cost a little more money.

Ding Chongshan and Lin Zuhua looked around the fish farm, then went up to the dock and went home.

"Did my dad catch such a big mackerel?"

Ding Xiaoxiang was very curious. The box was not opened, but it was very long. She could tell at a glance that the fish must be very big.

Zhao Dahai smiled and nodded, and explained the whole process of fishing.

"A fish is estimated to be about 1.7 to 1.8 meters long and should weigh 160 to 170 kilograms."

"The fish won't be sold. They said they'll put it in the refrigerator and display it in the company so people can show it off when they come."

"Boss Ding caught some mackerel, but they were much smaller than Uncle Ding's, so he didn't even bring any back!"

Zhao Dahai told Ding Xiaoxiang about Ding Chongshan's plan.

"Hey!"

"Uncle Lin, I really have nothing to say now. I guess you'll be depressed for a while. Who knows, you might have to go fishing again in a few days."

Ding Xiaoxiang burst out laughing. Lin Zuhua and her father Ding Chongshan have been friends for many years. When they were young, they often went fishing at sea and had a very good relationship. If one of them caught a fish and the other did not, or if one of them caught a big fish, they would definitely not miss the opportunity and would definitely laugh at the other.

This time, his father Ding Chongshan caught a big fish, but Lin Zuhua didn't, so he would definitely be ridiculed.

Lin Zuhua has returned home now, but he must have felt more and more dissatisfied in the past few days, and he might go fishing with Zhao Dahai at any time.

"what!"

"Correct!"

"Right! That's exactly what happened! Boss Lin will definitely find my fishing boat in a few days!"

Zhao Dahai smiled and nodded. Ding Xiaoxiang was right. Lin Zuhua would most likely go out to sea to find him in a few days.

"The weather has not been very good these days, so I haven't been out fishing much, but I was able to catch a lot of fish on the fishing boat."

"We've caught quite a few sea bass!"

"I might find time to fish for some black bream or other fish next time. I will only go fishing for grouper when the fish bite is better."

Zhao Dahai talked about his next plan.

If there are no special circumstances, fishing for grouper is definitely more profitable.

But now we have to prepare for the fishing moratorium.

During the fishing moratorium, the prices of fish, shrimp and crabs will rise sharply, especially for farmed fish.

If there were no fish farms, I would definitely not be able to catch so many sea bass or black porgy. There would be no place to raise them, and I couldn’t sell them at a good price. Now the fish farm will be built in a few days, so I will definitely catch more black porgy and sea bass.

Normally, the price of black snapper or sea bass cannot be compared with that of grouper, but during the fishing moratorium, the prices of these fish are quite good. Considering that the speed of catching such fish is very fast and the quantity is relatively large, the money earned is actually not less than that of grouper.

"You decide on the fishing matter!"

"No matter what kind of fish it is, as long as you can catch it, you can make money."

Ding Xiaoxiang understood what Zhao Dahai was planning.

"I've been keeping an eye on this for the past few days! This fish farm must be built as soon as possible!"

"In four days, this fish raft will be ready for use! Da Wen's fishing boat can come back here and transfer the fish on the boat to this fish raft."

Ding Xiaoxiang pointed at the fish fillet.

"Row!"

"In a few days, I will ask Da Wen to go back here with the fishing boat and release a batch of fish to see what the situation is like."

Zhao Dahai estimated that in a few days, the number of sea bass, black porgy or other fish caught would almost fill the entire fishing boat. If the fish farm is built, we must return to release the fish. Another reason is that we need to release some fish to see how the situation is. "The fish farm is built, and we will start to release fish. If you want to get fish from Liu Lei's Hongyun Restaurant or Hu Weilin and the boss's private restaurant, you can go directly to the fish farm. It's much more convenient."

Ding Xiaoxiang thought of Liu Lei and Wu Weimin taking the fish. It would be much more convenient once the fish farm was built.

"Correct!"

“This is indeed a lot more convenient!”

Zhao Dahai nodded. Most of the fish he caught were kept at the reserved fishing spot. When it was sunny in his fishing boat, the fishing boat would be at the dock, but sometimes the fishing boat would stop near artificial islands or other places where he fished. When there was no dock, there was nothing to say. When Liu Lei or Wu Weimin wanted fish, they could just come here. However, if Liu Lei and Wu Weimin happened to go fishing with him and they wanted fish urgently, they had to find a speedboat to go out to sea to find Ding Dawen, which was very inconvenient.

The fish farm has been built, and any fish you catch, whether it is grouper, black porgy, sea bass, etc., can be raised here, and the number of fish is very large.

Shi Jiehua and Shi Zhong would keep some of the fish that their sea fishing boats brought back in this place. This way, it would be very convenient for Liu Lei and Wu Weimin to get fish whenever they wanted.

"Xiaoxiang."

"We keep our fish in the fish farm before selling them. Maybe someone will say something, but Uncle Ding and I have discussed this matter. Other people don't have our fish. Don't worry about it."

Zhao Dahai reminded Ding Xiaoxiang.

One of the very important reasons why the fish we catch can be sold at such a high price is that they are all natural fish.

If you keep them on a fishing boat, there won't be any problem, but if you keep them on a fish rack near the dock, people will definitely gossip.

"Ok!"

"I'm thinking about killing the worms. We have one fish on the fish farm, so we need to raise the price."

"It costs money to build a fish raft. It costs money to hire people to work on it, too."

"With high costs, the price of fish like this will definitely be higher!"

Ding Xiaoxiang told Zhao Dahai what she had been thinking about in the past few days.

"Correct!"

“We have to do this!”

Zhao Dahai nodded without thinking, agreeing with Ding Xiaoxiang's approach.

When the fish farm is built, there will definitely be people, especially those who are envious and jealous of me, who will say that the fish in the fish farm are farmed and not natural fish, and cannot be sold at that price.

Instead of lowering the price, Ding Xiaoxiang raised it, telling everyone clearly that this was the price of the fish, and if you wanted to buy it, come and buy it, but if you didn't want to buy it, forget it.

Is it possible that no one will come to buy it?

There is no need to worry about this at all.

The fish in the sea cannot be kept for too long. They will die of overeating in just one to two months.

Anyone with a little experience can tell whether a fish is farmed or not.

Others don’t have so many fish like this. The fish we have are unique. If you really want to buy them, buy them. If you don’t want to buy them, forget it.

As for the other people, the things they say behind your back are actually not very useful but very disgusting.

Now that Ding Xiaoxiang has raised her price, what these people said is of no use at all.

The story of Zhao Dahai, Ding Xiaoxiang and the other two getting rid of their singleness returns to the topic of the fish farm that is being built.

"Second Grandpa."

"I'll be back on the fishing boat in a minute."

"Why don't you stay here for two more days to rest."

"In a few days, Ding Dawen's fishing boat will come back here to release the fish. How about going out again if you want to at that time?"

Zhao Dahai walked up to Zhao Shi who was standing with Shi Guangming.

"Second Grandpa!"

"You have been staying on the umbrella all this time. I think what Dahai said is right. You can stay here at the fish farm for the next few days, or go home and stay for two or three days, waiting for Brother Dawen's fishing boat to come back and release the fish. If you want to go out to sea, you can go with him."

Ding Xiaoxiang thought that Zhao Dahai’s idea was a good one. She had always been a little reluctant to let Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming, two people of their age, stay on Ding Dawen’s fishing boat all the time. They could go there from time to time and stay for a while from time to time, but they could not stay on the sea for a long time.

It is true that I have been at sea and on fishing boats all my life, and I have long been accustomed to this kind of life. But now that I am old, it is still quite humid on the sea anyway. It is hotter when the sun is out and colder when the sun is not out and the wind is blowing.

"Row!"

"I just need to stay here at the fish farm for the next few days, waiting for Da Wen's fishing boat to come back and release the fish. After I finish these things, I will follow the boat out to sea."

Zhao Shi agreed.

Shi Guangming has to keep an eye on the fish farm these days. It is actually a bit boring for him to be alone on Ding Dawen's fishing boat without anyone to keep him company.

In addition, I have been on the fishing boat all this time.

Now that I'm back, I might as well stay at the fish farm with Shi Guangming for a few days.

Zhao Dahai looked at Ding Ailian and especially Ma Baozhu who were watching the construction work at the other end of the fish raft, and smiled. The fact that Ma Baozhu could work on the fish raft meant that Ma Baozhu's family agreed with the relationship between Ma Baozhu and Ding Dawen.

Zhao Dahai talked to Ding Xiaoxiang again, and saw that it was almost time. The wind and waves outside were quite strong, so they had to hurry and rush back before daybreak. They got on the speedboat and left immediately.

Ding Xiaoxiang looked at Zhao Dahai's speedboat, which was getting farther away and out of sight, so she turned and walked to Ding Ailian and Ma Baozhu.

"Sister Xiaoxiang."

"It's not like I don't have money now, so why should I work so hard to fish to make money?"

"You just came back and went out again right away. Aren't you exhausted?"

"You two have only seen each other for less than an hour in such a long time, and now you have to separate again. It will definitely take several days, or even ten days or half a month, for you to see each other again."

"Is it necessary to do this?"

Ding Ailian looked at her cousin Ding Xiaoxiang with some confusion.

"How can you think like that?"

"We are all still young! If we don't work now, when will we work?"

"It's not about how much money we make, but we have to make as much money as possible. We have to work. No one wants to live like this, lying at home all day."

"Besides, I have indeed made a lot of money now, but who would complain about having too much money?"

Ding Xiaoxiang smiled. She had indeed caught a lot of fish in the sea, and she had made a lot of money by selling them. I mean, she could not spend all the money in her lifetime, but she could not really stop working. She had to work all the time. Sometimes it was not a matter of money, but people had to work. They could not just sit at home and eat up all the money. On the contrary, they had to work harder while they were young. The more money they made, the better.
