Reborn in the Millennium: Building a Fortune from Fishing

Chapter 490 Loading the truck
The couple counted the bills in the attic and made a forecast for future sales.

The sales volume of silver carp and bighead carp bait in July is likely to reach over 50,000 kilograms, and other fermented corn and the like can also reach 4,000 to 5,000 kilograms.

We have to replenish at least 50,000 kilograms of inventory, otherwise the silver carp and bighead carp bait may be out of stock by September.

The key point is that the weather is too hot, and it is very troublesome to prepare the fried bean dregs. The bean dregs will go bad in two hours after being brought back from the city in the morning.

"Brother, how about this? We can put the roasting machine at Auntie's house and buy the dried bean dregs for one yuan and twenty cents per pound."

"Let them collect the bean dregs and fry them themselves?" Qin Dahe thought for a moment. "What if they stir-fry them sour? What if they get burnt? They'll definitely mix them together and send them over."

He didn't believe that the aunt and her colleagues could produce the products at home in the right quality and quantity. Unqualified bean dregs would affect the taste, and product quality was also his bottom line.

"Forget it, let's just bear with it for now. I'll be at home recently and bring some back from the village tofu shop every day to fry." The temperature should drop by October.

At that time, we will prepare the goods for next year together. This year is the first time to prepare production capacity, and we lack experience.

Logically, the current profits are enough to build a factory, and the introduction of large-scale drying equipment can easily solve these problems.

But this is not how business is done. If you expand production capacity as soon as you see some profit, you will easily fail halfway.

When he was doing machining, he had fifteen Yangshan machines, plus dozens of other casing, punching machines, and cold and hot rolling equipment. The factory equipment alone was worth tens of millions or even hundreds of millions. At the peak, the annual turnover was terrifying.

But it's useless. The more glorious it is during expansion, the more humble it becomes once orders stop.

I don't want to be a big shot in this life, earning some money for bait is enough for me.

If you have some spare money, buy some Moutai stocks, buy a house in Shenzhen, and then buy a yacht to go fishing everywhere. How great it would be.

I was still sleeping soundly in the morning when I suddenly felt an itch on my neck. I opened my eyes in a daze and saw my daughter biting my neck.

Qingsong also stared at the door with wide eyes, not knowing what he was doing.

"Wife."

"Wait a minute, I'm making the milk."

After a while, Yanyan came in hurriedly with a bottle of milk.

"The baby slept too late last night. Don't do that next time."

"What time is it?"

"It's seven o'clock. You should get up and have some food. The truck will come over soon to pick up the goods."

"Oh."

She rubbed her eyes and looked at the two cubs drinking milk with big gulps, with a doting smile on her face.

He just put on some shorts and walked out of the room.

The sun had already passed the wall of the flower-making factory opposite the fish pond, casting an orange glow across the yard.

The two dogs lay listlessly at the edge of the fence, waiting for their little master to come out and play.

They are the most loyal lackeys of the brother and sister, and it is very convenient for them to eat and drink with the little ones.

The flesh on his body is also round and plump, and it makes a "bang bang" sound when you pat it.

I kicked Black Bear in disgust. He actually dared to steal my slippers in the dark last night.

Qin's father was brushing his teeth in the yard. He picked up his things and started washing up.

Now I don’t even have time to drive an illegal taxi. My family has been very busy recently.

He spit out the mouthwash, wiped his face with cold water, and then went to the front to eat together.

White rice porridge, salty beans, and some pickled cucumbers, which are very crispy and tender.

Take a sip along the edge and then two bites of the melon, it’s so delicious.

The roar of an engine was heard outside the house, and a large truck drove along the cement road to the door of Qin's house.

"Biaozi, drive the car into the yard." Qin's father shouted.

"okay."

The father and son began to eat faster. After they finished, Qin's father took a pack of Yunnan Yunnan coffee and called the truck driver.

Now he drives a black car and often delivers goods, and the quality of his cigarettes has finally been improved.

"Uncle Biao, open the back door." The truck's back bed faced the new house's kitchen, which had been converted into a warehouse. The fishing gear had been moved to the small bedroom and locked away. "Okay, you two deliver the goods downstairs," the driver said, grinning. He clipped Yuxi's ear and hopped onto the truck bed.

Since the Qin family is doing well, he is happy to help out. He won't help load the goods when ordinary people ask him to do so.

The father and son started to get bait from the warehouse. A snakeskin bag contained fifty bags and weighed one hundred pounds.

It's a little hard to carry it on your shoulders, so you just throw it directly into the truck bed when you go outside, and then Uncle Biao just smooths it out a bit.

His big truck can carry five tons of goods at a time, which is not a lot, so there is no need to stack them neatly.

After loading 10,000 kilograms of cargo, both father and son were panting heavily, and Uncle Biao, who was sitting upstairs, also came down to hold his waist and rest.

The three of them lit cigarettes and sat by the courtyard wall to smoke.

Two babies are playing with toys inside the fence with sand underneath, and they are very happy.

"Qin Da, you're so happy. Your son is doing well, and you have two grandchildren."

"Haha, I earn a lot of money. I can make three or four hundred a day by driving a sports car." The old man said arrogantly.

Uncle Biao took a puff of his cigarette and said nothing more.

If it weren’t for Qin Dahe, where would I have the money to buy this Santana?

"Uncle Biao, you've worked hard. I've contacted you about the return shipment. The freight for shipping a truckload of crayfish from Wuhan to the city is not cheap, but we can't afford to delay the journey."

"We have the goods." Uncle Biao's eyes lit up. "How much is the shipping cost?"

"Six thousand kilograms of crayfish, plus seven thousand kilograms of ice, the shipping cost is two thousand eight hundred." Qin Dahe said with a smile, "But if the shrimp are damaged too much, it will be difficult to explain to the employer, and we won't be able to eat on the way."

The shipping cost for fresh produce is a bit more expensive, but the distance is short and will not exceed three thousand yuan.

This trip was to help Brother Qiang, the fishmonger, to connect with the lobster farmers contacted by Boss Wan, and he could take 5% of the profit.

I am also very grateful to Brother Qiang. It would be great if someone could help contact him.

Let’s first produce three tons of goods and see the market feedback. Once we get the hang of it, everyone will make money this summer.

"Haha, that's okay, you have a lot of connections." Uncle Biao happily puffed on his cigarette. "Thank you so much, from now on, just come to me for your goods, I will definitely not bring any errand boys with me."

We are going to make a lot of money on this trip. The Qin family’s freight of 2000 plus the is .

When transporting four or five tons of goods, the fuel consumption is only 15 liters, which is 75 cents per kilometer.

The fuel cost was only 1200 yuan for a round trip of kilometers, and it didn't waste any time. Including the toll, I made yuan in two days, which was very satisfying.

Normally, when you deliver goods, you have to wait for the goods, and you can't make much money if you come back with an empty truck.

"Let's make money together, and everyone will get rich." After stubbing out the cigarette, the father and son continued to load the goods.

Five hundred kilograms of fermented corn and commercial bait will also be delivered.

After the things were loaded and the tarpaulin was covered, Uncle Biao drove away happily, the accelerator was roaring.

The father and son couldn't stand the heat anymore, so they went to the lake to take a shower and change their clothes.

"Dad, go help me bring back the dregs from the tofu shop."

"Still frying." Father Qin wiped his face and was about to tease his grandson.

"It's not enough to just speculate, good sales."

"Then what are you doing?" He didn't want to go out. He wanted to do some work at home and play with his grandson.

"I need to use the lifting net. Haven't you noticed that all the crucian carp in the pond have surfaced?"

Qin's mother is doing housework, and someone has to make arrangements for her second aunt and others to come and do the work later.

The old man curled his lips, honked his tricycle and went out.

He couldn't bear to use his Santana to store bean dregs, as they would go bad and make a fuss.

Qin Dahe went to the warehouse, took out the lifting net, cleaned it, and started driving piles in the fish pond.

He won't feel at ease until he has pulled half of the fish out of each pond, and he might have to pull out several nets.

Knowing last night that the fish pond needed to be overturned, he contacted Brother Qiang and asked him to carry the fish out and send them over directly.
