Chapter 930 Make Money Sooner Rather than Later
"This boat is really good!"
Shi Guangming looked at the baskets of fish being hoisted onto the dock by the crane. It was very labor-saving and very fast, which is something that ordinary fishing boats don't have.
"Grandpa Shi."
"The reason we bought this fishing boat is basically to raise fish, and the other one is to sell fish."
"Also, our speedboat is used to transfer big fish to the fishing boat when we catch them in the open sea. Without this crane, the speed is too slow, and the workers suffer too much."
Zhao Dahai looked at the crane specially installed on the deck. This is a really good thing. Whether it is selling fish at the dock at this time, or if you catch fish in the open sea, you have to transfer it from the speedboat to the fishing boat. It can play a huge role and save a lot of time.
"Ha!"
"Zhao Dahai."
"This is because your speedboat catches more fish. How can other people use these things?"
Shi Guangming pointed at Ding Dawen who was busy on the deck.
Other people's speedboats go out to sea to fish for a day and catch hundreds of kilograms of fish. When they go to the dock to sell the fish, they just need to put them in a few baskets, or even go directly to the fish farm near the dock to sell them. It doesn't take much effort or time.
Zhao Dahai's speedboat can easily catch thousands of kilograms of fish, or even more than 10,000 kilograms of fish. If it depends on manpower alone, it will be very difficult and take too long.
Liu Lei got on the fishing boat and walked directly into the cab.
"Brother Dahai!"
"Now the fish have been loaded, it's getting late, why don't we go have lunch?"
"Anyway, the place is ready!"
Liu Lei had just finished loading the fish, and when he saw that it was already past one o'clock in the afternoon, he and Zhao Dahai hadn't eaten yet.
"Second Grandpa."
"Grandpa Shi."
"Why don't we go to Hongyun Restaurant to have a meal together."
Zhao Dahai looked at Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming.
Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming shook their heads without thinking, not out of politeness, but because they didn't want to bother.
"Zhao Dahai."
"Just go and eat!"
"There are plenty of food stalls at the dock. I'll call someone to send food to the fishing boat."
"Besides, there's everything on the fishing boat. We can also catch a big black sea bream and cook some soup."
"That's right!"
"We two old men can do it on this fishing boat. You can call Ding Dawen and the people working on the fishing boat to go home."
Shi Guangming pointed at Ding Dawen and the other three people on the deck.
"Okay!"
"But I'll have to trouble you two, Second Grandpa and Grandpa Shi!"
Zhao Dahai didn't say anything polite to Second Grandpa Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming.
Zhao Dahai, Liu Lei, and Ding Xiaoxiang walked out of the cab and went up to the deck. They talked to Ding Dawen about going to Hongyun Restaurant for dinner together, and then going home after dinner, and then going back to the fishing boat in the evening.
Ding Dawen shook his head without even thinking about it. Now that he was the captain of the boat, there was no reason for him to leave Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming and stay on the fishing boat.
"Brother Dawen."
"You haven't been home for a few days. Take this opportunity to go home."
"You can't just do this job and not go home, right? Or maybe you can only go home once a month?"
Ding Xiaoxiang knew that her cousin Ding Dawen wanted to do a good job, but it was impossible for him to only go home once a month.
Ding Dawen thought about it and felt that it made sense. He couldn't stay away from home all the time.
"There's no need to eat. I can just eat with my second grandfather on this fishing boat."
"After eating, I and these brothers in the village will take turns to go home."
"It will be the same in the future. When the fishing boat is docked at the pier, we will take turns to go home if there is nothing to do for the time being."
Ding Dawen came up with an idea.
Zhao Dahai and Ding Xiaoxiang looked at each other and nodded. Ding Dawen was actually right. He and the other people did not leave the fishing boat, leaving Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming to watch the fishing boat. This had nothing to do with being polite or not. If there was nothing particularly important, it should not be done this way.
"Okay!"
"Brother Dawen."
"You can arrange this matter!"
"Grandpa Shi just said that the food stalls near the pier can deliver meals."
"When the fishing boat is docked here, you can cook if you want, or just ask these food stalls to deliver meals to the fishing boat, or you and the people on the boat can take turns to eat at the food stalls."
"How much money is spent will be included in the account."
"You can eat the fish on the fishing boat as you like."
Zhao Dahai told Ding Dawen that he must not save money on eating.
"Brother Dawen."
"What Dahai and you said is true."
"Don't look at the high prices of these fish caught, but you can eat as much as you want."
"This is what Dahai and his friends do when they go out to sea to fish."
"That's right!"
"When we go home, each of us should bring back two croakers and two black sea breams, choose the ones with big heads!"
"You can't go back empty-handed."
Ding Xiaoxiang knows Ding Dawen's character very well. Although Zhao Dahai said this, she estimated that he would definitely not eat the fish on the fishing boat. She could only remind Ding Dawen if he was willing to do so. It would depend on Ding Dawen. Nothing she said would be of any use.
"Okay!"
"I know!"
Ding Dawen nodded.
Zhao Dahai, Ding Xiaoxiang, Liu Lei, Lei Dayou, and Liu Bin went to the dock and shouted to Zhong Shizhu to stop the speedboat and go to eat together. They all got on the seafood car and went to Hongyun Restaurant in the town.
Liu Lei handed the seafood car to the people in the restaurant, and took Zhao Dahai, Ding Xiaoxiang, Yang Qin and others directly to the largest private room on the top floor of the restaurant. After a while, fish, shrimp, crabs, chicken, duck, fish and meat filled the whole table.
"Brother Dahai."
"Why don't we go to the back to see what the construction site is like?"
Liu Lei saw that Zhao Dahai and Ding Xiaoxiang had finished their meal, and said to go to see the foundation being dug on the open space behind the restaurant.
"Okay!"
"Let's drink some tea and go to the back to take a look."
Zhao Dahai nodded. He and his people were busy going out to sea to fish, and they hadn't come here to see it. They didn't know how it was going. Now that they had come to Hongyun Restaurant to eat, they must take a look at it.
Zhao Dahai, Liu Lei, Ding Xiaoxiang, and Yang Qin went to the construction site at the back. Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, and Lei Dayou stayed in the box to continue eating.
Zhao Dahai walked into the construction site and found that the foundation had been dug. Now one car after another was pulling various materials to the construction site.
"This speed is really quite fast!"
"Next, we have to really start laying the foundation, right?"
Zhao Dahai was very satisfied. The progress was quite fast.
"Hey!"
"Brother Dahai!"
"Is there any need to say more?"
"We have plenty of money in hand!"
"This money is in place, how can the speed not be fast?"
"If it is not fast, then we can't make money from our hands!"
Liu Lei pointed to the trucks that kept pulling various materials.
He, Zhao Dahai, Ding Xiaoxiang, and Yang Qin all thought that as long as the construction started, they had to seize the time, build it quickly, open it quickly, and make money quickly.
If there is no shortage of money in hand, the speed must be very fast.
"Zhao Dahai."
"The building is expected to be completed in the next six months, and then we can start decorating."
"Decoration won't take much time, two months at most."
"This is the time Ding Xiaoxiang and I estimate now, maybe it can be shortened a little bit."
Yang Qin has been watching the construction site for a while, and is very clear about the progress of the project.
"If the quality of the construction can be guaranteed, the shorter the time, the better, even if it costs more money."
Zhao Dahai looked at the busy construction site in front of him, and couldn't help but imagine what the people in the town would think of once the building was completed.
"Okay!"
"Ding Xiaoxiang and I will think about this matter later."
"If you really want to spend money, it is estimated that it can be completed one month or even one and a half to two months earlier."
Yang Qin gritted her teeth.
The meaning of Zhao Dahai's words was very clear, that is, the current speed is not enough.
Yang Qin knew very well that although the current progress was very fast, it could be faster. The current speed was just two shifts. If it was three shifts, the speed would be much faster.
If you want a faster speed, you have to spend more money. But there is nothing wrong with Zhao Dahai's idea. The sooner the building is completed, the sooner it can be renovated and rented out, and you can make money in advance. As long as the extra money paid is controlled within a certain range, it is worth doing it.
Zhao Dahai, Ding Xiaoxiang, Liu Lei, and Yang Qin looked around the construction site and returned to Hongyun Restaurant and returned to the box on the top floor.
Zhao Dahai drank some tea and left with Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, and Lei Dayou. They went back to Shijiao Village Pier and drove a speedboat back to Langtou Village.
Ding Xiaoxiang and Yang Qin returned to the construction site again.
"Ding Xiaoxiang."
"Our original plan was to open the store during the next Chinese New Year, and use this best and biggest day to boost business."
"But what Zhao Dahai said today makes sense to me. We should hurry up and open the store as quickly as possible."
Yang Qin had discussed this with Ding Xiaoxiang a long time ago, and felt that it was enough to wait until the Chinese New Year to open the store, and the speed was already very fast, but what Zhao Dahai said just now made me feel that I should hurry up as much as possible.
"It's good to hurry up. Anyway, let's get this done in advance. When to officially open will be decided at that time."
"Or, if everything is ready, we can do a trial operation to see how it goes."
"It would be better to officially open during the Chinese New Year."
"There is another advantage of hurrying up to build this building in advance, that is, we can leave enough time for renting."
Ding Xiaoxiang found that she and Yang Qin had forgotten about the time for renting or thought too simply. They thought that the geographical location of the building was very good and that other people would come here to rent shops in a short time, but in fact, this was not necessarily the case, or it would take a longer time to find enough merchants.
Yang Qin was startled and looked a little ugly. The matter that Ding Xiaoxiang just mentioned was hardly mentioned by the two of them when they discussed it before.
"Hey!"
"Ding Xiaoxiang."
"Haven't we thought about this?"
"Did Zhao Dahai find this problem and ask us to speed up? He just doesn't feel comfortable saying it directly?"
Yang Qin suddenly thought of this. It's impossible that Zhao Dahai told her and Ding Xiaoxiang about this for no reason, and asked them to hurry up and build the building as quickly as possible.
"Dahai has been thinking about fishing recently and ignored our building."
"I guess he just came here to take a look today. He thought it would be better to go faster, so he just said it casually."
Ding Xiaoxiang shook her head. It's not that there is no such possibility, but it's really unlikely that Zhao Dahai doesn't care about the building between her and Yang Qin.
"It won't make much difference to us if the time is longer or shorter, so we might as well hurry up."
"With three shifts or something, we can finish the building in a few months."
"Or after the first and second floors are built, we can start other things right away, such as laying some pipelines and decorating some places that can be decorated right away."
"In a word, hurry up and start renting it out right away."
Ding Xiaoxiang thought about it and felt that it would be better to hurry up and finish the building faster. Apart from anything else, the sooner it is built, the more time there is for renting, which is very important. If it is really completed one or two months before the Chinese New Year, the time left for renting will become very short, and it may not be possible to open the business before the Chinese New Year.
"Right!"
"Sufficient time for renting is really important to us."
"Only by leaving enough time can there be enough room for response."
"You know, after our building is built, we have to take a big piece of the pie from others."
"There will definitely be all kinds of twists and turns in this matter."
Yang Qin was scared.
If Zhao Dahai hadn't come here today to look at the construction site and mentioned to Ding Xiaoxiang and himself that they should hurry up and finish the building earlier, maybe Ding Xiaoxiang and he wouldn't have realized this.
"Hehehe!"
"Yang Qin."
"Don't worry about it so much."
"It is definitely important to hurry up and finish the building earlier. It will be more beneficial to us."
"But no matter what, quality is the most important."
"Even if there is not enough time and we can't open during the Chinese New Year, then just wait a little longer."
"We will officially open after things are done and completed."
"Our building occupies the best location, and there will be better management and various services in the future."
"There is no reason to be unable to compete with others."
"It's just that we have to see whether it will take a year to become stronger and bigger, or three to five years to become stronger and bigger."
Ding Xiaoxiang was very calm. She was actually a little anxious just now, always thinking about eating a fat man in one bite, but in fact there was no need to do so.
