Reborn in the Millennium: Building a Fortune from Fishing

Chapter 431 Preparing Experimental Bait (asking for monthly ticket)

I bought some things worth a few hundred dollars and went to Uncle Qing's house.

The house is really beautiful. Both floors are covered with tiles, the kind with patterned tiles.

The only problem is that the entrance is too dilapidated, the kitchen made of asbestos tiles is out of place, and there is a refrigerator in the house but it's not plugged in.

I guess just like my grandfather, the elderly in my family are reluctant to spend money. This is a common problem among the older generation.

Qin Dahe put down his things, chatted briefly and left.

The old couple wanted to invite him to dinner, but he didn't feel comfortable agreeing. When he arrived at mealtime, they didn't prepare any food in advance.

Then he called Liu Da and asked him to transfer 30,000 yuan to Uncle Qing's account, and the remaining 2,000 yuan was for the transportation fee of valuables.

He directly bought three fishing rods for 12,000 yuan, and Liu bought nine fishing rods for 30,000 yuan. After sharing the cost, it was indeed much cheaper.

These accounts must be calculated carefully. The closer the friendship, the more carefully it should be calculated, so that the relationship can last.

When he and Erhu settled their wages, they even calculated it down to a few dollars, making sure the accounts were clear.

Of course, it’s different for Silly Kid. They are brothers for life, so just keep it in mind.

I went home and ate quickly because I was starving.

Today's meal is simple, just stir-fried bacon and vegetables, but it's quite oily.

The yard is already busy. My second aunt and others are wearing masks and packing bait for silver carp and bighead carp.

Qin Dahe took his bowl to the yard to eat. Black Bear came up to him stealthily, probably wanting to get some bones. Unfortunately, there was no chicken or duck today.

Now the production of silver carp and bighead carp bait at home has become more formalized, and the dogs will not eat the bait casually.

"Dahe, when are you going to get the bean dregs? The fire has stopped." Second aunt looked up and asked.

As one of the main raw materials, bean dregs are never enough. To make 2000 jin of silver carp and bighead carp bait, at least jin of dry bean dregs are needed, and jin of raw bean dregs are needed to make this much.

"Let's go after dinner. Let's try to fry the bean dregs before summer."

"It has to be finished before summer." The old lady replied with a smile.

Their salary is performance-based; the more bait they produce, the more they earn.

"Mom, did you feed the fish this morning?"

"No, you feed it once. I have so much to do every day, how can I have the time to feed it?" The mother said unhappily. She was still washing the baby's clothes and sheets. Qingci vomited milk in the morning.

Not only did she vomit all over herself, she also didn't spare her brother, and the bed was a mess.

After finishing his meal in a few bites, Qin Dahe started to feed the fish.

Now we don’t release native crucian carp fry anymore. Sometimes the kids just throw the ones they catch into the big lake. Anyway, the big lake is empty now.

Because the grass carp have not grown up yet, the water plants on the lakeside have started to grow wildly. It is still unknown what it will look like in summer.

After feeding the crucian carp and washing my hands, I went into the house to visit the two babies.

As a result, when he saw his eldest daughter humming weakly, he felt distressed.

"Did you vomit severely this morning?" After shaking him a few times in my arms, the little guy was still humming. I guess he caught a cold.

"I vomited all over the bed. It's terrible." Yanyan came up and patted Qingci's back. "Don't shake it anymore. If you vomit again, there will be no change of sheets."

"When it gets warmer, I'll go buy some coarse sand and let the baby play with it."

"What if you get tanned?" the girl said unhappily. Seeing Qingsong wanted to hug her too, she grabbed him and pulled him up.

"Aren't we going to collect the bean dregs this afternoon?"

"Let's go later." His eldest daughter's face was flushed, and he was a little worried. "Or, why don't you send me and ask Dr. Li to come over."

"I just took my temperature. I had a fever for a while this morning."

"Go and do your work first."

"Ah."

After going out, Qin Dahe was still thinking about his daughter. It was so pitiful that the little girl was sick.

After starting the diesel engine, I have to go and get the bean dregs back first. I have already agreed with them that I will clear out the stock of four tofu shops today.

When passing by his father-in-law's house, he stopped the boat for a while, went up to tell his mother-in-law that Qingci was sick, and asked her to help take care of her.

The most troublesome thing is when the little one is sick. He needs to be taken care of and can’t sleep well.

"Just tell me earlier, I'll go right away." Auntie couldn't sit still when she heard that. Her two grandchildren were her lifeblood.

"I was fine this morning, but I've been feeling lethargic since I vomited in the morning." Qin Dahe said with a wry smile.

Without saying a word, the old couple closed the door and went to his house.

Qin Dahe continued his boat trip. The four shops he visited today were quite scattered: Huwan, Chenwan, and Xinba. He also had to go to Xiaowu Village, where Daliang had helped him contact a tofu shop.

We rushed and finally pulled all the bean dregs onto the boat at five o'clock. The total weight was less than 2000 kilograms, and we had to collect it tomorrow.

He was thinking of stocking up 50,000 to 60,000 kilograms of bait in the warehouse in June and July, and then suspending production, and replenishing it when there was a shortage of stock.

According to current order estimates, the best expectation is to sell 20,000 kilograms a month in the peak months of July and August.

Although July and August are the hottest months, fishing is never affected by the environment. No matter how hot the weather is, as long as there are fish, there will be fishermen going to the river.

The fundamental reason why no one goes fishing in winter is not because it’s cold, but because you can’t catch big fish and everyone is too lazy to go.

After collecting the bean dregs and returning home, his second aunt and the others had already gotten off work. He went to light some honeycomb coal, turned on all three stoves to fry the bean dregs, and then hurried back into the house.

My mother-in-law was feeding the baby water with some medicine powder nearby, and I didn't know where my son had been taken.

"what happened?"

"After you left in the afternoon, she started crying and had a fever." Yanyan said with a bitter face, "Mom took Abao away because she was afraid of infection."

"Abao" means the baby boy in the family. Qin Dahe has been called this name for twenty years, and now it has been passed down to his son.

"It's time to separate." Qin Dahe looked at the girl with a little heartache. Because he smelled strong, he decided not to hug her for the time being.

"I'm going to go take a shower and stay with you tonight."

"Go eat first, and then come and take my place."

Thinking that she would have to go back to work in a few days, Yanyan couldn't bear to leave her children, so she held them in her arms.

The next day, Qin Dahe stayed at home and stayed with his eldest daughter.

When a child is sick, he or she will feel insecure and must be held by his or her parents to fall asleep. The baby's laughter was not heard again until after dinner, and the couple breathed a sigh of relief.

At least on the surface, there is no discomfort anymore.

I went to Dr. Li's clinic again and he told me to just keep warm.

The old couple were naturally overjoyed to learn that their granddaughter had recovered from her illness.

The Qin family is rich, so naturally there is no phenomenon of favoring boys over girls. This eldest granddaughter is very rare.

In the evening, Qin's mother boiled a pot of water with mugwort leaves and washed both children.

After taking a bath, the chubby little guy clung to everyone and played, and he was so happy.

At this time, Da Liu who was far away in Shanghai called. Qin Dahe's smile froze when he heard it. He thought, he had forgotten his competition bait.

"I'll go for the experiment tomorrow, don't worry." He said embarrassedly. His daughter was sick and she had forgotten about the competition.

"Send it over earlier so I can get familiar with it."

"Don't worry, I've tested it for you and it will definitely work." Qin Dahe was still confident in his bait.

The high-density aquaculture pond nearby is the fish pond owned by the owner of the fish farm we visited last time. When Qin Dahe called, the owner readily agreed.

Anyway, I just catch some fish and put them back in the end.

"The camera has arrived. Please send me 1,800 kilograms of bait to offset the debt. There's no need for a wire transfer." The total price was 15,000 yuan, and the remaining money could almost cover the shipping cost.

"So fast?" He was immediately surprised when he heard that.

"Haha, my company also has a project in the island country, so I can just ask my employees to bring it with them when they go on business trips."

"Haha, okay, send me SF Express's valuables channel and send it to the courier point in Jiuzi."

After hanging up the phone, Qin Dahe had a smile on his face. Liu Da was really reliable. He bought a camera very quickly.

"Are you so happy?" Yanyan asked curiously.

"Well, let Lao Liu buy me an imported camera. Later we can buy some floppy disks and shoot videos." He took the eldest daughter and shook her twice with a smile, then kissed her chubby face. She smelled so good.

"The camera arrived so quickly. Let me play with it first after buying it." Yanyan also knew that her man needed to buy a lot of things.

Bait is making a lot of money these days, so just buy it if you want.

"I'll go get the bait. The camera can be paid for with the bait, so it doesn't cost any money." He put his daughter down and happily went outside to work.

Prepare the goods and put them on the Land Cruiser at night, and then Qin's father can deliver the goods directly to the express delivery point the next day.

Mother Qin was quite happy to hear this. The bait only cost so little.

"I'll make a nice video for our Qingci later and show it to her when she grows up."

"Well, let's take some pictures for both of us." Yanyan thought to herself, it would be fun to take a video of her son and play it at his wedding.
