Reborn in the Millennium: Building a Fortune from Fishing

Chapter 285

The harvest was good and the father and son were in a happy mood.

When he got home, Qin Dahe picked out the Angji separately, which weighed at least three pounds.

"Mom, make some braised tofu for lunch. Cook half of it and I'll give the rest to my father-in-law."

"Okay, remember to bring some river shrimp for Aqin."

"I know." Qin Dahe thought about it and decided to give the white eel to his elder sister today. Binbin likes it very much, but the eel at home is enough.

There were still a lot of small fish, and he didn't want to set up a stall to sell them, so he let my mother deal with them herself.

I guess I'll send some to my second uncle and the others later.

After a simple breakfast, he drove to his father-in-law's house and found that the silly boy was already busy.

"Grandpa, can you finish your work today?" He handed the Ang Ji to Aunt. The family didn't have to push it back and forth, but the old couple were very happy. It was enough for their son-in-law to have them in his heart.

"I'm not busy anymore. The boat materials are ready. I can do the rest slowly. There's no rush." Grandpa wiped the sweat from his forehead. "Look after the kids more these days to earn some money. I'll go over there when the gifts are due."

The silly kid has no parents, so his master is his biological father, and he must go to celebrate the occasion.

"Then I'll get busy." After saying hello, he started the car again and set off.

When I got to the town, I went to my eldest sister's house and kept the two white eels, but my eldest sister didn't want them yet.

"Life is better at home now, so just take it. Mom said you suffered a lot at home before you got married, so give her some more money now." He said with a smile.

When I was a child, my father had to go out to make money, so the main people doing farm work at home were mother and daughter, and my eldest sister also had to help with housework.

Qin Dahe also did it, but how much could he expect to do with a rare treasure?

When the eldest sister heard this, her eyes turned red. It was enough that her family had done this, and her younger brother was also very sensible.

"Then I'll accept it. Live a good life in the future and tell your sister if you have anything." He wiped his eyes secretly and became more and more satisfied with his younger brother.

"Haha, where's the little fatty? He should be up at this time, right?" Seeing that his elder sister couldn't help herself, he changed the subject.

"I'm collecting fish with Yong's dad. The little brat is interested in fish now and keeps asking to go to the market every morning."

"Haha, I'll go take a look and deliver the goods over." Qin Dahe said with a smile, and then drove to the vegetable market again.

When we arrived at the purchasing point, the man who was supposed to receive the goods was gone. He was probably taken away by my grandfather. He could make more money from this unique business since he had the power to monopolize it anyway.

The Brahmins in small towns are no joke. Even if outsiders come here to make money, they may not be safe even if they pay protection fees. As long as someone with power takes a fancy to your business, they will have to get out immediately.

"Grandpa, Binbin." When they arrived at the place, the little guy stood in the transfer box and played with the fish, chasing the silver carp inside and making them splash in the water.

"Dahe, you're here." Grandpa nodded when he saw him coming. The little guy looked up and called out "Uncle", but was reluctant to go out and continued playing in the water.

I didn’t expect to meet some acquaintances today. Uncle Chen and several other fishermen were there.

"Gangzi, uncle, are these fish the ones you got yesterday?" It's a lot, these silver carp probably weigh more than 600 kilograms.

"Haha, so many fish must be sold. What is this?" He pointed at Brother Yong's father.

"This business is run by my eldest brother-in-law's family, and I built the bridge for it."

"No wonder, haha."

Grandpa was a little surprised that these fishermen also knew Qin Dahe.

"The skin and fur of these fish are very good today. Scar Brother asked me to buy them for six dollars." He said with a smile.

The city charges two yuan more, and those weighing more than 30 kilograms can be charged a few more yuan. He can earn more than 1,000 yuan from these silver carp.

"Originally, I was the one collecting these fish. Later, when the stock at the sluice gate ran low, I stopped buying them. Yesterday, they caught a lot of them." He explained to his grandfather, then looked at the silver carp on the ground and asked Gangzi, "Why aren't you selling any silver carp?"

"No one wants to buy my products at 2.5 yuan in the market. I'm so worried." Many people want to go fishing themselves. Since he has a big tricycle, it's very troublesome to just throw the products to him to sell.

However, everyone gave him a bag of bait, so he was not opposed to helping others.

"Grandpa, why don't you collect the silver carp as well? I'll ask Brother Qiang if they'll take them."

"What about Qiangzi? You don't need to ask. Silver carp is 2.7 yuan recently. I'll help you collect them, but I can only give you 2 yuan per pound." Grandpa said indifferently.

Silver carp fur, no matter how good it is, has no premium; wild and farmed silver carp are almost the same. He now goes to the market every day, so he and Qiangzi are naturally acquainted.

Since collecting silver carp doesn't make money, I'll just consider it as doing Qin Dahe a favor. Bighead carp makes money, with a price difference of at least two yuan per pound.

"Gangzi, do you think this price is okay?"

"Okay, let's deal with it quickly, I still have to go fishing." He was so anxious.

I caught a silver carp weighing over 30 kilograms yesterday, and I will definitely catch a lot of them today. I don’t want to waste time.

"Haha, that's good."

Now that they have collected the silver carp, they are about to weigh them and are getting busy.

He turned to look at Binbin, who was having a great time playing in the water while playing with eggs. However, one of his sparrows was pecked by a silver carp, which made him laugh and cry.

Reach out to drive the fish away. Silver carp and bighead carp have no teeth, so you don't have to worry about being bitten.

"Binbin, is it fun?"

"Play." Binbin smiled foolishly, "Uncle, you come too."

"I'll forget it." He's an adult now, and it would definitely be fun to jump in.

Today's kids are really tough, and there will be fewer and fewer of these old-fashioned kids in the future.

He also took out his river shrimps and eels, just a little bit, and grandpa weighed them first when he saw them.

After the money was paid, he said goodbye. He had to transfer the money to the fishing tackle company today. He really didn't want to weld three hooks. It was too troublesome.

He also paid for the shipping fee for the order, 1.5 cents for each hook, and he bought 3,000 of them directly.

After transferring the money, there was nothing else to do, so he prepared to go back. When he passed by the grain and oil station above, he saw Erhu and Tiedan there, so he stopped the car.

"Erhu, are you buying a storefront?" he asked curiously.

The grain and oil station is at the end of the town. There are not many people here. Most of the people are from the intersection to the vegetable market.

"Daha." I was a little surprised to see him. I didn't expect to meet him again in the morning.

"Well, it's too difficult to buy a storefront here." Tiedan said depressedly.

In his idea, he would buy two houses at the intersection, and it would be best if the second floor could be habitable.

Unfortunately, things did not go as planned. There was only one store selling it at the intersection, and the price was sky-high, over 300,000 yuan.

They could only get it by selling the gold, which was not what they expected. They could only look at the grain and oil station.

"It's okay to buy one in a remote area. The auto repair shop in town is right behind the east primary school." Qin Dahe took the cigarette with a smile.

The interests of a small town are fixed, and it is not easy to make a lot of money by getting a good location.

There was still a chance ten years ago, but now at the millennium, the town’s pattern has been fixed.

"We thought so too, but it's a bit expensive."

"how much is it?"

"A townhouse here costs 150,000, and that doesn't even include a second floor." That means a single storefront would cost 75,000, one for each of them. Qin Dahe was a bit surprised to hear the price; townhouses weren't that expensive; they could probably buy one for tens of thousands.

"How big?"

"It's over 60 square meters, but there's a big yard at the back."

I followed him to the back and found that the yard was at least 150 square meters.

"Is the yard on the title deed?"

"No, it's just a verbal agreement."

What the hell is this?

"I think you shouldn't rush to buy the shop. Since your registered residence is not in town, you won't be able to keep this yard." He said sincerely.

There is obviously something wrong with the house. In a dozen years, there will be no one left in their town, and the house will not be able to be sold even for 50,000 yuan.

"Let's wait and see," Erhu muttered. "This landlord is really mean. He's asking us to pay an extra 5,000 yuan for a yard that's not on the title deed."

"If you really want to build a house at the entrance of the village, it's the same thing." There is still traffic on the county road, so it won't affect making money.

"Dahe, do you think there is anything promising over at Fenghuang Bridge?" Tiedan suddenly asked.

"It's not interesting." Qin Dahe shook his head.

The development on the Fenghuang Bridge side is even worse. There is an important canal transportation town opposite, which is more prosperous than the average small county town.

"Oh, doing business is so difficult." The two sighed.

"Difficult?" Qin Dahe chuckled.

"Once the shop is open, I'll invite the people from the auto repair shop to dinner, build good relationships with the neighbors on both sides, and get to know the local gang members."

"Once your business is profitable and on track, there will be more things to pay attention to."

If you make money, you will naturally attract more attention. In a society where favors are the norm, doing business is all about favors. If you don't do favors in a small town, there's no point in doing business.

It’s different in the countryside. If you have good skills, you can make money. Anyone who dares to make trouble will be beaten with a stick. After you get rich, people’s weirdness will not have any effect.

But in town, there is a lot of scrap metal in the welding shops, and you never know when it might be taken away by someone.

It’s okay to keep someone here in the middle of the night. If you don’t, people might even pry open your door. Who doesn’t like to pick on a weakling?

"We also need to treat the people from the repair shop to a meal?" They were a little dumbfounded.

"Yeah, you're here to pay your respects. Regardless of whether they eat or not, you have to show your attitude."

"In a sense, the car modification business is also stealing other people's jobs. We should be very polite. If they come looking for work in the future, we can just deal with them directly. No one will say anything."

He shared some of his business experiences. He couldn't stand seeing these two guys rushing to buy a shop and open a store.

The two big golden camels weigh only seven or eight kilograms together, which is a little over 500,000 yuan at most. At the rate they are going, they might have to be given away this year.

"Want to go fishing tonight? Let's switch to line 10 today. Maybe the bites will be more frequent."

There are too many things, and it would be a bit difficult for the three of them to handle it, and there might be a burst of protection at night. It would be best if Erhu and the others could come along.

"Forget it, I'll go to the west to have a look." They still wanted to buy the shop first, so it wouldn't matter if they spent some money.

"Erhu, didn't you tell your father about the gold? Discuss it with the old man."

Their families all supported the idea of starting a business, but they hadn't told anyone about the shop purchase. Only Erhu's father and wife knew about the gold.

"Okay." The two nodded.

With that, Qin Dahe waved his hand and went back.

Now that I have said this, any further talk will only make people dislike me.

When he got home, Qin Dahe first gave the money in his hand to Yanyan, and then went to the yard to dry the nets.

The eel cages and shrimp cages must be dried in the sun. After drying, knock them once or shake them more when you take them out next time.

The father and son are a bit lazy now, so they just spread out the clothes to dry, and then put them away and call it a day.

Qin's mother was killing fish by the pond. Angji was quite easy to kill because it had no scales.

"Dahe, go to the tofu shop and get two pieces of tofu." There are four people in the family who eat a lot, and one piece of tofu is not enough.

"Oh, do you want to buy lard too?"

"See if Zhang Dazhu has any. He has chicken comb oil." Qin's mother was too embarrassed to continue talking. It was inappropriate to talk about this with her son.

Qin Dahe chuckled, went to get a portion of miscellaneous fish, and rode Yanyan's pedal out.

You can buy tofu for free, and the owner was very happy when I gave him some mixed fish.

We first arrived at Zhang Dazhu's house. Zhang Dazhu himself was not at home. There was only an old man and a little child at home.

His wife divorced him a long time ago. It was said that she hooked up with a rich man outside. People in the village couldn't tell whether the story was true or not. Some people said that she was beaten by Zhang Dazhu.

But Qin Dahe has known Zhang Dazhu for a long time. He is usually very strong and friendly to everyone he meets.

"Grandpa, do you have any cockscomb oil at home?" When they arrived in the yard, he first gave a cigarette to Zhang Dazhu's father.

"Dahe is here." Grandpa took the red Nanjing cigarette and lit it with a smile.

He also knew about the last pig treatment. His family owed him a small favor, and although he paid it back, he still had to be polite when he met him.

"Yes, there are five pounds of suet left in the refrigerator. Do you want some?"

Qin Dahe was a little puzzled. Didn’t they say that all of it was given to the young wife of the Yang family?

"I want them all, ten pounds of lard." Fifteen pounds of lard, the family will eat it up quickly.

"Row."

After weighing the lard, Qin Dahe turned around and went to the tofu shop.

The boss was naturally happy about the small fish from Yuxi River and gave him a large piece of tofu, which was heavier than two pieces of tofu.

When I saw the cockscomb oil in his hand, he also told me about Zhang Dazhu's family affairs.

It turned out that Zhang Dazhu suspected that the young wife of the Yang family was responsible for the poisoning of the breeding pigs last time. Most people in the village would not dare to do such a big thing.

A breeding pig costs tens of thousands of yuan. Even if one is jealous, he would not dare to poison it. If he is caught by the Zhang family, his family will definitely be destroyed.

But the Yang family has a grudge. Ever since that incident broke out, their family has been unable to hold their heads up in the village.

Children are often laughed at at school, so it is possible that they would do such a thing in anger.

"That night, Old Zhang was so fierce that his voice could be heard from far away," the boss said with a strange smile. "The next day, Big Pig Zhang came to the house and beat up the whole family. Except for the children, even the old man didn't escape."

"Ce, so awesome." Is this torture? No, I guess Old Zhang must have taken some medicine. Talent.

Qin Dahe thought with a mixture of laughter and tears that the Zhang father and son really had a way and used all kinds of dirty tricks.

　Now I will post three chapters a day, divided into three times. I will try to fix the time. The next chapter will be around one or two o'clock tomorrow, and there will be another chapter at seven o'clock in the evening.
