Beachcombing: The beach is full of amazing seafood, but my wife won't let me get out of bed!
Chapter 220 Fishing Always Brings Joy
Wu Sui knew what she was afraid of.
Chen Xue has never had a good life since she married him.
Now that the family finally has some money, they've bought a yard, a boat, and now a storefront. They're spending faster than they earn.
It's understandable that Chen Xue is worried.
If he hadn't known how outrageous housing prices could become in the future, he wouldn't have dared to buy so many at once.
"Don't worry, you'll earn that money back quickly."
Chen Xue didn't say anything. She didn't understand those grand principles; she only knew that she had to support her man's decisions.
When they arrived in town, Wu Sui returned the car to Lin Tao and also told him about the seafood market in the county.
But now Lin Tao is focused on the big courtyard that Wu Sui bought, so he has no time to care about any storefront.
When it came to the matter of the yard, Lin Tao was furious.
"You're saying you're not going to care about the purchasing station at all? You're just leaving it all to me."
Wu Sui chuckled and offered him a cigarette.
"Brother Tao, the capable should do more, I'm just a fisherman, I don't know anything about these things."
"Alright, let's go back."
Lin Tao laughed and cursed, but didn't really take it to heart.
Returning to the village from town is not so comfortable.
Don't be fooled by Wang Feng's extravagant spending on buying a house and a storefront.
Now, for the sake of ten yuan for the bus fare, they absolutely refuse to let Wu Sui hire a car.
The group waited for the bus by the roadside.
By the time they got home, it was past noon, and Wu Sui's stomach was growling with hunger.
When Li Cuihua saw them return, she quickly went to greet them.
"How's the house looking? Have you bought it yet?"
Wang Feng waved the contract in his hand, speaking in a very loud voice.
"Mom, we bought it. We have a house in the city now."
Li Cuihua was so happy she couldn't stop smiling, and she wiped her hands on her apron.
"Okay, okay, what about the second one? Did you buy it too?"
Chen Xue shook her head: "A-Sui didn't like it, so she didn't buy it."
"Didn't you like it?" Li Cuihua was somewhat surprised.
They don't even like the apartments in the city? What kind of house is the second son looking to buy?
Wu Gang, who had been holding back all the way, finally felt confident and let out a snort.
"He didn't like the houses, but he liked the storefronts, and bought ten of them at once."
clack.
"How much...?"
"Of the ten storefronts, the second brother took seven, and Gangzi and I took three." Wang Feng handed over the contract.
Wu Jianguo, who was sitting at the door smoking, suddenly stood up when he heard this, pointed at Wu Sui's nose, his finger trembling.
"Second brother, you...you're going to ruin this family!"
"Ten storefronts? How much would that cost? Where would you get so much money!"
"Dad, don't rush." Wu Sui pulled his father down to sit.
"A set costs 50 yuan. I paid a deposit of 9 yuan, and the balance is due on September 1st. They even gave me an extra month."
Wu Jianguo almost choked on his breath, his face turning bright red.
More than a million yuan, the second son is going to empty the family's savings again!
Li Cuihua also got anxious, slapping her thigh and shouting.
"Second brother, you're incredibly bold."
"Go and talk to them right away, can we cancel the order?"
"Isn't it better to just live a peaceful life fishing? Why bother with all this?"
Wu Gang stood to the side with his head down, not daring to utter a sound.
Wu Sui calmly picked up the teapot, poured himself a cup of water, took a sip, and then spoke.
"Dad, Mom, have you ever thought about this? The seafood in our county is now mostly sold off at the docks or bought up cheaply by fishmongers. Why is that?"
Wu Jianguo glared at him and replied irritably.
"That's how we've always sold them, there's no reason why."
"That's not right." Wu Sui thought for a moment, wondering how to explain it to his father.
"To put it another way, if there were a place where prices were uniform and there was no shortchanging,..."
"When you return from fishing at sea, you can simply deliver the fish to us, have it weighed, and receive payment. Would you be willing to do that?"
Wu Jianguo nodded without hesitation: "Isn't that obvious? Who wouldn't want such a great place?"
"Yes, the county is now leading the construction of this seafood market, that's how it is."
"From now on, all the seafood caught by fishing boats in the county will have to be sent there."
"The core product category, quality, and market pricing mean that merchants from other regions also have to source their goods from there."
Wu Sui stood up and pointed in the direction of the county town.
"I bought all the best storefronts in the front row."
"From now on, whenever you enter or leave the market, the first thing you'll see is our shop."
"Whether we do seafood wholesale ourselves or rent it out to others, it's a sure-fire way to make money."
"Just you wait, the price of this storefront will double before we even get to next year."
"Even if you want to buy it then, you won't be able to buy it even if you have the money."
Wu Jianguo was stunned by Wu Sui's words.
Although he was an old fisherman who didn't understand economic trends, he understood monopolies and knew that to do business, you had to secure a good location.
The location at the main entrance is indeed a good spot.
"Can it really work?" Wu Jianguo was still a little uneasy, so he picked up the tobacco pipe and tapped it on the sole of his shoe.
"It has to work. We still have more than a month until the end of September."
"Once the new ship is launched, we can start trawling at sea, and earning the remaining payment won't be difficult," Wu Sui said confidently.
The atmosphere in the courtyard finally eased a bit.
Wang Feng pulled Li Cuihua inside to look at the contract and explained to her how to collect rent in the future.
Wu Jianguo puffed on his cigarette, his brow furrowed, clearly still processing the shocking news.
Wu Sui breathed a long sigh of relief.
With my family in order, the next step is to go out to sea and make some money.
I've been busy for two months and made so much money, so why am I getting poorer and poorer?
After lunch, the wind finally picked up.
With such weather making it impossible to go out to sea, Wu Sui, unable to stay idle at home, took out his fishing rod and prepared to go find Chen Yang and the others.
As soon as I stepped into the yard, two little hands grabbed my thighs.
"Dad, I want to go fishing too."
Ya Ya tilted her little face up, her two pigtails sticking up, and called out in a childish voice.
Xiao Hu also joined in the fun, jumping around shirtless.
"Second Uncle, I'm going too, take me with you."
Wu Sui pinched Ya Ya's chubby cheeks and squatted down to coax her.
"The sun is strong outside and the sea breeze is harsh. If you go to the beach for half a day, you'll get a tan like a little charcoal, and you won't be pretty anymore."
Ya Ya refused, hugging and shaking Wu Sui's leg, her little mouth pouting high.
"No, no, I'm not afraid of the dark. I want to be a fisherman like my dad when I grow up."
The moment that soft, sweet voice came out, Wu Suixin melted.
He burst into laughter, thinking about how to coax his daughter into being a beautiful little princess instead of a tomboy.
Chen Xue came out of the house, carrying a wide-brimmed hat and a long-sleeved shirt.
"Just take her with you. At home, she just runs around like crazy with Xiaohu. She's not like a girl at all."
He pulled the long-sleeved shirt over Ya Ya's shoulders, rolled up the cuffs, and then carefully placed the straw hat over her head.
"Don't run around at the beach, stay with your dad, understand?"
"I heard it!" Ya Ya jumped up and down with joy.
Wu Gang then came out with his fishing rod, glanced down at Xiao Hu who was excitedly waving his wooden stick, and looked at him with disgust.
