Reborn in the Millennium: Building a Fortune from Fishing

Chapter 387 Workshop
Qin Dahe also asked about this when he went to Shijian for the big market last time. People there go to the rural areas to attend the market. This year, they will go to Xuancheng after the performance.

So I had to find someone else, and it took several people's help to contact another team.

"There's one company that's offering 15,000 for three days, and I need to help build the wooden stage and venue. I've already negotiated with them."

"Where?"

"The troupe is from Tongling. They're planning to travel along the Yangtze River after the New Year, and they happened to be here."

This opera troupe has its own boat, which saves a lot of trouble, and they also have to carry a lot of equipment.

"I think there will be several performances. Can you see if there are other villages that want to invite actors to perform? Please help them contact them."

He didn't know the specific operation situation, but it was a very difficult operation for a troupe to make ends meet. It would definitely not be appropriate for them to go to one place and charge 15,000 yuan. How could they make money if they didn't perform more than a few shows?

"I'll ask after the Chinese New Year, but it may not be available."

"Where should we choose?" Qin's father thought for a moment. There was no large flat land in his village except for the fields.

Performing an opera requires more than just a wooden stage. There will be a lot of people coming, and people from all over the place will come.

If you perform in the fields, the fields will have to be plowed again after the performance because they will be trampled hard.

"There's a base behind the house, so we can set it up there. It'll be convenient for setting up the stage."

"Okay, as long as you have an idea, you must do it well and don't make any mistakes."

Since they were going to eat baked chicken in the evening, Qin's father didn't rush to bed. Instead, he went for a stroll to Limin Supermarket to listen to others talk about the gambling crackdown last night.

He did a great job, and the more people scolded him, the happier he felt.

As soon as the fragrant baked chicken entered his mouth, Qin Dahe fell in love with it.

The combination of chicken, onion and spices is simply delicious.

"This child can really work in a restaurant." Qin's mother said with a smile.

My son is good at roasting whole lamb and grilled chicken. I haven't seen anyone else in the local area do this. It's a unique skill of his.

The one-year-old chicken is tender and tastes just right.

However, Qin's father and mother are old, and they can't sleep if they eat too much greasy food at night, so they just tasted a little.

While they were eating, they heard crying from the room. Mother Qin quickly wiped her hands and went in.

"Oh oh oh, Qingci is awake." After coaxing her, she still didn't fall asleep, so I simply carried her out.

Seeing his parents and grandparents stealing food, the little guy refused to stand it and looked at the chicken with grievance.

"Be good, you are still young and can't eat. Mommy will feed you later."

Yanyan and Qin Dahe tacitly turned their backs and ate quickly, otherwise there might be a quarrel later.

The chicken weighed more than two pounds, and it didn’t look very big after being cleaned up, so it was eaten quickly. Yanyan then took the baby into the house to feed her.

Qin's mother helped clean up the mess and gave the remaining chicken bones directly to the fried noodles.

"Mom, when can I take the baby out to play?"

"It's getting warmer now. It's freezing cold now. You'll get cold if the wind blows. You'll be in trouble then."

"Yeah, we should be more careful." Qin Dahe nodded. It's really troublesome to have a sick child. He can't be left alone for a moment.

The four little ones in the family are very much looking forward to the two babies. They often squat at the door of the new house. Occasionally, when they see one, they immediately go up to sniff it and remember the smell.

Even Sang Biao didn't dare to enter the house casually.

In the following time, Qin Dahe went to pick cotton during the day, while Qin's father was busy taking the driver's license test.

It really costs money to get a driver's license in the county. Starting from the second subject, the old man must bring a pack of Red Nanjing cigarettes every time he goes.

Not only did he give a red envelope of 1,000 yuan, but he also spent a lot of money on cigarettes.

There is definitely an effect. I can practice Santana for three hours alone in the morning.

He stuffed another 500 yuan into the third subject test, and he didn't even save the last penny.

Fortunately, I finally got the driver’s license I had been longing for at the end of January.

After getting the driver's license, I drove out in my Land Cruiser without saying a word.

I first showed off to Uncle Zhang and Uncle Wu, and then went for a stroll in the People's Square in the county.

He is an old hand and knows that although driving an illegal taxi is not illegal, it is also a gray industry. He is not in a hurry to go out and do it before the New Year. He will pay his respects first.

The route he was going to run started at People's Square, and the return trip would also be as far as here. The normal toll for a ride was 20 yuan from the county to the bridge toll station, and an additional 5 yuan to the city, for a total of 25 yuan per person.

Of course, the opening price is definitely not like this. It is a bit inflated. If you don’t bargain, you will make a profit. If you bargain, the price will be based on normal market conditions.

Qin Dahe was just joking when he charged someone five dollars last time, and he didn't expect to make money from it.

The Land Cruiser has seven seats. If you work hard every day, it is not a problem to earn four or five hundred yuan. Gasoline is very cheap nowadays.

However, if you run away right away, you will easily be attacked.

When Tiedan's uncle learned that Qin's father was going to drive an illegal taxi, he took the initiative to help him make a connection and had a meal with him.

We are all fellow villagers, and our children and nephews are on good terms with each other, so we will definitely help if we can.

Everything will be easy if you have connections. Just pay monthly fees like other drivers, and then get familiar with the driver circle and you can start driving.

It’s okay not to pay, but if you get caught you’ll be fined 20,000 yuan. If you get caught twice a year you’ll basically end up working for someone else.

After paying the money, at least no one will care about this area in the county. The city will not check the cars from Chaohu and has no jurisdiction.

There were people running on Tongjiang Avenue around here, and there was one near Ligezhuang, so it was very easy to sneak in.

Going to People's Square to play cards and brag with everyone is a piece of cake for an old hand like him.

Illegal taxi drivers become familiar with each other and can even introduce orders to each other.

Qin Dahe didn't say much about the fact that Qin's father wanted to be the deputy director of the flower-making factory and drive an illegal taxi.

Driving a car nowadays is really cool, and the deputy factory director is also very prestigious. There is no way to stop my dad from experiencing this kind of fun.

He is busy with the business of his small workshop.

As the Chinese New Year is getting closer and the weather is getting warmer, it is time to start making bait for silver carp and bighead carp.

The main thing is to fry tofu dregs, soybean powder and corn flour. The others are easy, but these three are really troublesome.

It is not only used in bait for silver carp and bighead carp, but also in the fish food fed in your own crucian carp pond.

After buying three more rollers, Erhu's excavator started to clear the bamboo forest.

No matter how big the Qin family's yard is, it cannot accommodate all these things indefinitely. They dug up the bamboo forest, paved it with cement, and welded a small workshop with iron sheets to make it just right.

But he still paid two hundred yuan to the village. The bamboo forest was not his family's private property, so he had to spend the necessary money if he wanted to use it.

This small workshop only requires two people to run it, and the process is not difficult.

Originally, he was planning to help Erhu and Tiedan's wives, and also earn some money.

But because of the gold incident, everyone became rich, so no one can speak up.

Silly boy was newly married and was trying hard to have a baby. Bao'er also had to take care of the daily life of this rough man, so Qin Dahe was not planning to call him.

After the Chinese New Year, I will let my second aunt take an aunt from the Qin family's main branch to do it.

I have to keep an eye on my two grandchildren. All I have to do is receive the goods and reconcile the accounts every day.

My second aunt and the others were not tired either. They just ground the flour into the machine, fed the materials and added firewood, then waited for the materials to be fried and put into the warehouse. That was all they did.

The price is calculated based on the materials, and a commission of 1 cent is given for every pound of dry powder processed. It is not a problem for two people to earn about 100 yuan a day.

I earn money every day I work. If sales are good, I can probably work for at least two months a year.

I had originally planned to ask Qin's father to look after it, but he was the deputy factory director and had to drive an illegal taxi, so he had no time for this. I could only rely on my second aunt.

My second uncle's family is close to my own, so I don't have to worry about anyone causing trouble.

The mixing and bagging process is also done in our own yard, and we pay people for it when the time comes.

In April, Yanyan went to work and I was alone at home. I had to choose the right time even to drink water, so I didn’t have time to do these things.

Anyway, the profit from silver carp and bighead carp bait is large enough to cover these costs.

Qin Dahe is going to travel next year, so he may not be free.

While fishing upstream and downstream of the Yangtze River, he also wanted to expand the market for silver carp and bighead carp bait.

When we arrive at the local area, we will look for fishing tackle stores to discuss cooperation, give people bait for trial at the busiest fishing spots, and use all kinds of methods, etc., in an effort to achieve monthly sales of 30,000 kilograms next year.

These things put together are really enough to give people a headache.
