Reborn in the Millennium: Building a Fortune from Fishing

Chapter 475: Fishing Box Design

In the afternoon, the sun came out slightly, but the wind was still blowing, and it was estimated that it would rain again.

After coaxing the two babies to sleep, he started to busy himself with drawing.

Qin's mother and her second aunt were loading bait downstairs, and the three peanut roasting machines never stopped.

The desk in the attic was covered with various drawings, and he was still adjusting some parameters.

The most difficult part is the design of the fishing box, which must have various storage functions while also reserving interfaces.

"Plan, do we need to add another layer?" Qin Dahe scratched his hair, feeling a bit overwhelmed. He had revised several drafts but they were still not ideal.

I didn’t pay much attention to it when I used the fishing box frequently, but now many of the details in the design are blurred.

The simplest style is a rectangular block with a movable box on top acting as a double layer.

But this style is too crude, and only those fishing tackle factories that want to save trouble will produce these things. It is not practical at all.

At the very least, the line group and bait are in the same storage space, and the float has to be placed separately because it is relatively long.

There should also be a separate space for water cups, just like the two slots for tea cups in the car, which have a fixing function.

After thinking for a long time, he decided to make a double-layer one. If it were three-layer, the storage space would be too small and the mold cost would be high.

Place the water cup fixing box on the lower layer, stand it upright, and raise it slightly.

The upper layer is a kitchen knife-shaped storage box with a thicker handle that can hold a whole bleaching box.

The blade is where you place the line set and bait. The overall design is relatively deep, so you can place more things.

There are many small pendants around it, including four telescopic legs, bracket fixing buckles, fishing rod buckles, bait box buckles, etc.

The material of the small pendant must be aluminum alloy or steel, and it needs to be ordered from a machining factory, and the raw materials are not cheap.

Excluding the mold making fee, a box costs at least 85 yuan.

Due to material limitations, a steel frame is added inside the fishing box, and the overall weight is not small.

Qin Dahe sighed and decided to wait for domestically produced carbon fiber.

Without carbon fiber, the development of fishing gear would be greatly restricted, and the price of imported carbon cloth from abroad would also be frightening.

While he was busy, he heard crying downstairs and quickly put down the drawings.

"Oh, don't cry, Daddy will change your diaper and feed you." In the room, the two little ones were howling.

"Mom, help me make the milk."

"I'm doing it. Take the baby out."

After hurriedly carrying the child out, they changed the diaper first and found poop on Qingsong's butt, so they took him to the lake to wash it.

It's not cold now, so don't be too particular.

Mother Qin came over immediately after preparing the milk powder and fed her two grandchildren with a smile.

"Mom, how did you do it when you were taking care of the baby alone?" If both of them were crying together, it would be too late for one person.

"You can cry if you want. Don't be anxious when doing things. Get the milk ready first."

Looking at her grandson trying hard to drink milk, Mother Qin's face was full of doting.

My second aunt said with a smile, "Back then, I was also taking care of two children by myself, and I also had to do housework. That's how I got through it."

The old lady also echoed the sentiment, saying that taking care of children is simple, as long as they don’t get hungry or cold.

I looked at the time and it was already four o'clock. Damn.

I spent several hours drawing a design, and there are still several things left to be drawn.

"If you're busy, go up. I can still watch for a while."

"No need, I'll draw it in the evening." Qin Dahe said indifferently.

There is no end to the things to do, nothing is more important than spending time with your family.

After drinking milk, he happily played with the two babies for a while. The eldest daughter was the best behaved. She breathed against his neck and coaxed her old father into a state of mental retardation.

When I saw my daughter wanted to play with the cat, I grabbed Feifei and petted her to my heart's content.

Of course, in the end, I got scolded because the cat was so dirty.

I rested at home for two days and drew a series of drawings of the fishing platform, fishing box, etc. The next step is to find someone to make them to order.

He was going to Shanghai, but he was still worried about driving alone, so he thought of finding his son to go with him.

As a result, my father-in-law wanted to take people out.

When Qin Dahe called, the master and disciple had already decided on the itinerary.

"Grandpa, did you get a big job?"

The couple were both at the dinner table. They came over for lunch today, and the two babies were left in the care of my mother-in-law.

"Well, there's a big job in town, which is great news." The old carpenter's face was filled with joy, and he drank the wine in his glass in one gulp. "I'm taking my silly kid with me this time, so I can teach him something."

He explained in detail the reason for taking this job.

It turned out that a big boss wanted to build a retro garden, which required hand-carving throughout. There were many mortise and tenon joints required, so more than a dozen master craftsmen were needed to work together. There were probably forty or fifty carpenter apprentices alone.

The construction period is also long, almost ten days.

"The person on the phone said the main material is a mature eggplant wood with a diameter of nearly 1.5 meters. The transportation alone cost hundreds of thousands of yuan."

"It's going to take a lot of carving. I'm offering five hundred a day, and Hanwa can get one hundred and twenty."

My father-in-law had a proud smile on his face. It was not only because he earned a salary, but also because it was a recognition of his craftsmanship.

He was a well-known carpenter in the surrounding area. In the past, he had taken on some carving jobs, and his salary was at most two or three hundred yuan a day. This time, the salary was too high.

"So much?" Yanyan opened her mouth. Her monthly salary including benefits was only 700.

I couldn't help feeling depressed because the money I earned was not even enough to buy milk powder for my baby.

"That's normal. Those whose net worth is less than 100 million yuan are not qualified to get hold of such a big thing." Qin Dahe said with a smile.

Chinese luxury goods are the real luxury goods, the kind that ordinary people can never see.

The giant eggplant wood itself is expensive, and the carving master's labor fee is not cheap either. If it is fully carved, the cost of a gatehouse may be several million.

"I'm lucky," Grandpa sighed. "I'm willing to die for such a big job in my old age."

"Go away, what bad luck are you saying?" The mother-in-law glared at him and turned back to continue feeding the two babies in the dining cart.

"The little ones are still waiting for you to take them to school." Qin Dahe toasted with a smile.

"Haha, it's still early to go to school, at least five or six years."

The two of them clinked their lips, and he was happy for his father-in-law.

Not to mention the salary, the experience alone is enough to brag about.

It's like if someone asked him to weld an aircraft carrier, he would go at his own expense.

"Let's go to the workshop and talk." He wanted to smoke, but it was inconvenient with his two grandchildren around.

When they arrived at the carpenter's workshop, Qin Dahe took out the black pine and lit it for his grandfather with great insight.

At the same time, I curiously asked from which channel he got the big job.

"A stonemason from Hualong helped introduce us. We, the old craftsmen, are all helping each other."

"This boss must be quite capable. He's hired quite a few stonemasons, coppersmiths, and carpenters, and his daily wages are estimated to be tens of thousands."

Qin Dahe was slightly surprised. With such a grand ceremony, he must be no ordinary boss.

He lit a cigarette and took a deep breath. He thought for a moment, but he didn't know which big boss it was. There were no gardens of this scale in Jiuzi in later generations. Could it have been demolished?
Big bosses who have reached a certain level of wealth are generally very low-key, which is not comparable to those on the pig-killing list.

“Is the workplace in the countryside?”

"Well, there's a rural area south of the city. I'll be staying in Hanwa's house, so it'll be convenient for commuting."

"It's hard for Bao'er. Hanwa just came back and she has to go on a long trip with me. I asked her to stay at my house for a while."

Qin Dahe nodded slightly. Baoer is now five months pregnant and it is really not possible for her to stay at home alone.

Anyway, my father-in-law is out, and my mother-in-law is the only one at home, so she is just right to keep him company.

"If you're going to Shanghai, ask your dad to come along. This is a rare opportunity, and Silly Boy can learn a lot from you."

With such a good learning opportunity, Hanwa would definitely follow along. He was extremely satisfied with this apprentice and naturally wanted to train him more.

"I'm fine. I'm familiar with Shanghai. My dad is busy shipping the goods for me." He said indifferently.

If Silly Kid can’t go out with him, he can go alone.

To the east are economically developed areas. After a trip there, he had a general idea of what was going on and just needed to be careful when going out.

Even Liu Cixin, the rich second-generation, can run back and forth by himself, so why can't he?

Thinking of bringing the silly kid along is just an extra insurance policy.

"Just keep in mind that safety is the top priority when you go out." Grandpa said seriously.

After finishing a cigarette, the two chatted for a while and then went back to the house.

The baby needs to sleep in the afternoon and has to go back in the afternoon.

He had been drinking, and his mother-in-law was worried about him holding the child, so she accompanied Yanyan to send the child back.

The two kids are the apple of their eyes and ears, and there can't be any mistakes.

Seeing that he had nothing to do in the afternoon, Qin Dahe went to the supermarket and sat down to brag.

As we were chatting, the sky suddenly turned cloudy.
