Rebirth 77: From Beachcombing to Becoming a Tycoon and Spoiling My Wife

Chen Sanqiang asked, standing on the deck of the steel ship.

"Yang Bai, is your fleet facing any difficulties? You can tell us about them."

Yang Bai scratched his head and laughed.

"There really is one. Our ship doesn't have enough carrying capacity. This 10-ton ship can only carry 10,000 catties of fish each time it goes out."

Two boats going out together can carry at most 20,000 catties. Take this case of mackerel, for example. It could have been resolved in two days, but it dragged on for three days.

I'm thinking of having the specialist apply for a 30-ton steel vessel for the seafood company, so we can have the capacity for long-term salvage operations.

The cargo capacity of a 30-ton fishing boat is directly doubled.

With a catch of 20,000 catties of fish, what kind of big order can't you close?

Chen Sanqiang nodded slightly.

This place hadn't produced any significant results before, so no 30-ton steel ships were ever deployed here.

Resources were first supplied to the large county-level state-owned aquatic product companies. Yang Bai immediately achieved results, and he was more outstanding than those in other counties.

They also have the capability to develop the Widow Sea; they are indeed now capable of equipping it with 30-ton steel ships.

"Sure, no, thirty tons won't be necessary. I'll give you a sixty-ton fishing boat that can catch thirty thousand catties of fish. And isn't there another boat that's free? I'll arrange for people to take over and put it under your command."

Yang Bai was overjoyed; this happiness had come too suddenly.

He can handle 60,000 catties of fish in a day with a 60-ton fishing boat, but to suddenly provide a 60-ton fishing boat out of nowhere, there must be some ulterior motive.

"Thank you, Commissioner Chen."

Chen Sanqiang shook his head.

"Don't thank me yet. There are no more than eight 60-ton ships in the entire region. We have a difficult order recently: 100,000 catties of conger eels. The main export destinations are Southeast Asian countries, which are one of the main sources of foreign exchange."

"You can refuse now, but you can only exchange a 60-ton ship for a 30-ton one. Size doesn't matter, the money will be calculated according to the class."

"During this period, you can use a 60-ton steel ship."

Yang Bai was stunned; conger eels are very difficult to catch.

They live in the crevices of reefs and are solitary fish.

There is also a period of activity, which is the foraging migration from July to December.

Back then, large quantities would gather, and a single trip with the net could yield several thousand kilograms.

But their activities are not fixed, so he can only rely on luck.

There are reasons why size doesn't matter.

One is that they are difficult to catch, and there's no guarantee they won't be caught.

Secondly, the small ones can be exported as canned goods, not to mention the large ones.

"How many days will it take?"

"I'll give you about a week. So, are you taking it?"

Chen Sanqiang asked in a low voice.

Yang Bai was calculating whether he could catch them in a week, but he really didn't want to give up on the sixty tons of steel windows and was determined to try again.

"I'll take it."

Chen Sanqiang nodded, "Okay. Chen Ming will then liaise with your seafood company."

A 100,000-jin (50,000 kg) order of conger eels is a very large order and is of great importance in terms of foreign exchange.

It is worthwhile to send Chen Ming to liaise with the aquatic product company.

Chen Sanqiang beckoned Hou Sanli over and nodded in approval.

"This visit was quite successful; your company has made rapid progress."

Hou Sanli nodded with a smile.

"This shows the importance of the people. Without Yang Bai and these vast working people, just having an empty shell is useless. Great wisdom lies among the people."

Next, Chen Sanqiang went to the aquatic products company's conference room to give instructions.

Yang Bai stood in the back and took notes diligently.

After giving his instructions, Yang Bai walked out of the conference room, and Liu Dade ran up to him and whispered something.

"Wang Laosan agreed, and he also instigated two others to expose him together."

"There are many informants over there, but when Wu Anshun got into trouble, not a single one took the lead. The internal situation was in complete chaos."

"The people were successfully transferred to our village."

"Also, Wu Anshun will be brought here for identification."

"The fact that Commissioner Chen has stayed until now is probably not just to give instructions; it is very likely that he wants to personally intervene in this incident."

Liu Dade stated his deduction, and Yang Bai agreed.

The meeting just now was filled with a lot of meaningless talk. High-ranking leaders have this problem with meetings, but it's abnormal to mix it up with this matter.

"Tell them they can get ready."

The accident that caused Wu Anshun's fleet to collide with a reef and sink at sea is even more serious than the previous accident that happened to Liu Caixia in Widow Sea.

Twenty people died, making it a serious accident at the regional level.

After finishing the meeting, Chen Sanqiang came downstairs with a very serious expression.

"Comrades, we're heading to the port. You've all heard about the ship collision in Linghai County, haven't you?"

Everyone looked at each other.

County Magistrate Hu Guoqiang nodded and said, "Commissioner Chen, we are aware of the incident involving the Linghai County fleet. It's quite serious; we heard that twenty people died."

Chen Sanqiang sighed and nodded, his expression serious.

"Yes, twenty people, they sacrificed themselves at sea, it breaks my heart."

"Therefore, I repeatedly emphasized at the meeting that safety must be the top priority in offshore operations."

"This time, I will personally review each of the main people responsible for the accident! I will not let a bad person go unpunished, nor will I wrong an innocent person."

The group arrived at the port.

A jeep slowly drove up, followed by a tractor. On the back of the tractor sat Wu Anshun, whose hands and feet were tied up.

He had only been tortured for one night, and he was now a mess, disheveled and extremely wretched, with two militiamen guarding him.

The memory restoration techniques of this era are no joke.

The older generation was ruthless.

Yang Bai stood still, looking at him calmly.

Wu Anshun also noticed Yang Bai, who was dressed in a suit and tie, his teeth clenched tightly, his eyes filled with boundless hatred.

He struggled to his feet, shouting, "Yang Bai, I'm going to kill you, Yang Bai!"

The roar echoed throughout the entire scene.

When the militiamen saw Yang Bai standing behind the commissioner, their hearts tightened instantly, and they immediately gagged Wu Anshun.

Chen Sanqiang glanced down at Yang Bai.

"What's going on?"

Yang Bai explained, "He and I are competitors, but he has always treated me as an enemy, doing a lot of bad things to me in the dark, and even trying to kill me several times."

"There's such a thing?"

Chen Sanqiang frowned as he looked at Wu Anshun, who was being escorted away.

There was a hint of anger in his eyes, but it quickly dissipated.

A middle-aged man with a long, stern face, dressed in an expensive Zhongshan suit, stepped out of the jeep.

He was Li Ankang, the county magistrate of Linghai County. He jogged over, followed by Cai Guanghua, the county public security bureau chief.

Li Ankang reached out and shook hands with Chen Sanqiang, saying, "Commissioner Chen, we have apprehended the criminal. Please look into it."

"How did the ship collide? Was the ship itself damaged, causing the accident? Or was it his command of the fleet that led to the accident?"

Chen Sanqiang asked.

Li Ankang explained, "According to the prisoner's confession, he went to catch sardines and accidentally entered the reef island. Suddenly, fog rolled in, and he lost his way in the sea, which is why he crashed into the reef. According to fishermen who passed by the reef island at the time, there was indeed heavy fog there."

Yang Bai smiled; he knew Wu Anshun was not going to confess honestly.

"Commissioner Chen, may I ask about Wu Anshun?"

Chen Sanqiang raised an eyebrow, gave Yang Bai a meaningful look, and nodded, saying, "Sure, ask whatever you want."

Li Ankang also recognized that the person in front of him was Yang Bai.

There are many conflicts of interest between them and Wu Anshun, and if they find out anything that is detrimental to them...

He glanced at Chen Sanqiang, then waved his hand and said, "Take the cloth off Wu Anshun's mouth."

The militiamen guarding Wu Anshun immediately tore the cloth off.

Yang Bai walked over and asked, "Wu Anshun, it seems you're not being honest."

Wu Anshun's veins bulged as he spoke in a low voice.

"Fuck your mother, if you dare tell me everything that happened that night, your whole family is going to be wiped out."
