What he didn't expect was that they were also very straightforward. He directly said that the purchase price of fresh dockside products was 35 cents. If a pound of dried food was about 6 pounds, the cost would be at least 2 yuan, so he would sell it for 2.5 yuan, the lowest price.
Boss Zhou was very straightforward and agreed without any counter-offer.
As a result, he originally made a lot of plans in his mind and planned to talk nonsense, but he didn't expect that they would be of no use.
I originally made a false report just to give myself a little more profit margin, not to mention that the dock charges 33 cents, and if I bring it to the market, I have to sell it at least 38 cents. In this way, the cost of drying it is really more than 2 yuan.
It's really not expensive at all when he sells it for two and a half yuan!
Very special price!
After thinking about it like this, he accepted it with peace of mind. Fortunately, he didn't listen to his wife completely and kept a cautious eye on it, and falsely reported a little more.
The purchase price at the dock does not represent the wholesale price in the city. You can't be too honest, as you won't make money if you are honest.
If I had known earlier, I would have paid more...
This... this was such a happy promise, and he regretted not bidding less...
Alas, people are so contradictory.
After hanging up the phone, he only regretted a little, but he was a very easy-to-satisfy person. He could still make money, with a profit of 70 cents, more than 300 kilograms, and he could earn more than 200 yuan a day. , this is also very good.
Even if the weather is bad and you can't bask in the sun every day, you will make money if you bask in the sun. You can also bask in the sun more when the weather is good.
Anyway, Boss Zhou just said on the phone that he needs it if he can get some sunshine. He weighed more than 300 kilograms on the first day. Even when he tested the water, he thought the quantity was a bit small, so he had to weigh at least 500 kilograms the next day.
Ye Yaodong was right when he thought about it. He shipped more than 300 kilograms on the first day. After five or six days of showing off, it is estimated that the goods shipped on the first day have just been transported to the place for sale. People cannot do business with just one trip.
After all, the flood season for squid is short. If you really have to wait until you see the effect of selling, then the flood season will be over long ago, and there is no need to sell it. If you want to test the waters, you have to see if the quantity produced during this flood season is good for sale. If it is good, the quantity will be increased next year.
After thinking about it, he no longer had any scruples. He would see how much he could catch tomorrow. Anyway, he had to catch at least 500 kilograms every day. He estimated that he should be able to count them tomorrow. When the flood season comes a few days later, the number would probably be even higher. more.
After paying for the phone call, he called his two brothers-in-law again. As usual, he called the commune in their hometown. After asking someone to call someone for help, he waited ten minutes before he called again.
The brother-in-law was very happy and agreed immediately, saying that he would send Lin Guangyuan over in the evening, and they would tidy up the land and come back tomorrow.
After Ye Yaodong made the call, he immediately went to Secretary Chen to ask for the land.
"You came just in time. Now you are the most prosperous and famous in the village. Everyone says that the feng shui in the area around you is good. In the past two days, two or three families want to choose the vacant land around you to build their houses. It’s just that it hasn’t been decided yet. The brothers at home are arguing about which area to build it on. If you want it, decide it as soon as possible.”
He hurriedly said: "I want that piece of land by the roadside. That piece of land is big and open enough for me to dry the dried fish. Do you see how enlightened I am? I don't want to occupy the people's needles and threads. I even plan to buy the place to dry the fish." , look...can it be considered cheaper?"
"I'll report to the village committee tomorrow and try to count as little as possible, but the land is also a collective asset, so it won't be much less if you count less."
"Okay, then you can register it for me. I will go to sea tomorrow and I will not be at home. You ask my mother to measure the land with you. I will explain to her later how much area she wants. After registration, I will come back to pay the money tomorrow."
"Okay, do you want to stay for a couple of drinks? The vegetables have just been cooked..."
"No, no, no, the food at home has been cooked. I just want to get everything done before it gets dark."
Ye Yaodong declined a few words and went back directly.
From the time he came back to now, he has been running back and forth without his feet touching the ground. He hasn't sat down to rest for a while. All the dirty clothes on his body are still there. They are so black from the squid spray that you can't even see the original color. Where can I see them? Sit down and drink?
As soon as he got home, he picked up his mother who was killing squid and ran to the open space, as busy as a spinning top.
"What are you doing? I'm killing squids. Why are you in such a hurry? Where are you taking me?" Mother Ye didn't even have time to wipe her hands, and she was so dark that he took her arm and walked out, "Let me wash up." Is it too late?"
"Stop being verbose, it's just next to you. Why are you washing your hands? If you come back and kill them, I'll just show you how big the area is. It'll be quick..."
"How big is the area?"
Mother Ye was pulled by him and ran behind him unwillingly, muttering something to her, but when she came back, her face was filled with joy, and she could not close her mouth in happiness.
As soon as I sat down on my butt, I couldn't help but share it with a few women next to me.
"Oh, this kid pulled me out in a hurry. It turned out that he asked me to look at the land. This silent kid actually wanted to buy the land next to me again. He also told me that the village committee would come over tomorrow to measure the land and let me know. I told them how large an area they wanted, where to go from there, and they also asked me to give them a long look to take a look..."
"Money is really hot. I just bought two boats, and now I'm buying land. I'm going to build a workshop. I already have a yard. Isn't there a place to kill fish? It's really messy to buy land." Spend money..."
"They also said that they would build two more houses for his father and I to move in. Isn't this a waste of money? The old house has a nice house and it is so big. If we are asked to move here, what should we do if the house is empty? What a waste of money. …”
"He also said that living closer would save us from walking back and forth all day long. What's the point of walking? It can also exercise our body. Walking more can help us stay healthy..."
The smile on his face and his angry tone were not complaining, but clearly showing off nakedly!
The mouth is not closed when it is not speaking!
Ye's mother was indeed so happy that she almost went to heaven. Her son was making a living, and after buying a boat, he immediately bought land and built a workshop and a house for them to live in. When she told her about it, her face became bright.
"Oh, you are so lucky, you are going to enjoy it..."
"I just bought a boat, and now I have to buy land and build a house. It's so big..."
"Ah Dong is really filial. He took the old one over last year, and he plans to take over all of you this year..."
Ye Yaodong heard that his mother was beaming as soon as she returned to the yard and started bragging again. He didn't know whether she was working or not. He shook his head and walked directly around the outer wall to the back door.
I couldn't help but feel lucky that my mother had been brought to the village committee. Otherwise, when the small workshop started, his mother would have become the leader of the workshop, and everyone would be around her, shouting and shouting. Say good things to her and support her, but don't be instigated by others to cause a rift between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
His mother talks a lot, so it's better to go outside and listen to the gossip.
"A Dong is back, are you all busy?"
"Okay, boss Zhou has already negotiated it, and your brother has also called. They will bring Ayuan over later. Secretary Chen also told him that he will come over tomorrow to measure the land. I just told my mother how much area she wants, and asked her to bring someone over to measure it tomorrow, and you can come and take a look tomorrow."
There is just over an acre of open space over there. He can build a house for his parents to live in, where he can supervise the work. There is also a warehouse, a small fish-killing workshop, and the large open space can be used as a drying ground. .
"Let's talk to Boss Zhou about how much it will be. Do you want it tomorrow? Do you want it from now on?"
"If you want, tell him two and a half yuan a pound, and he will agree immediately. Oh, if I had known better, I would have asked for a higher price..."
"So straightforward? He won't return the offer?"
"What's the price? I told him that our terminal charges 35 cents per catty and sells out six catties per catty. The total cost is more than two yuan. This is also the purchase price. The wholesale price in the market must be more. When people heard this, they just thought that we were honest and didn’t make any random bids, so how could we make any further counter-offers?”
"Well……"
"You have to be more evil-hearted to make more money!" Ye Yaodong couldn't help but sigh. The couple were just too honest, too kind, and too simple, but their hearts were not dark enough.
"It's okay if we earn that much... If it's too much, it won't feel safe..." Lin Xiuqing said honestly.
"You are making money, but you are still not sure? Forget it, we have already agreed. Anyway, as long as the weather is good, we will stay back to bask in the sun. And depending on the situation, we can go to Aguang or Xiaoxiao to replenish some, and the price will be cheaper in the future. , let’s sunbathe a little more.”
"Okay, now that everything is done, let's eat first, shall we? If we don't eat, it will be dark. Now we will be running around without touching the ground..."
"It's okay. I didn't go out until after 12 o'clock today, and I came back after working for only a few hours. I'm not too tired. I just feel like I've finished my work. My dad hasn't come here yet?"
Only then did Ye Yaodong realize that he had gone back and forth several times, but he hadn't seen his father's shadow. It had been so long, not to mention taking a bath, and he could have killed a pig, but he hadn't come yet?
"Perhaps someone asked me to talk to you on the way?"
"Then leave him alone. Let's eat ourselves first. The kid must be starving."
"Hey, okay, you go get your mother and two children, and I'll bring out the dishes."
Ye's father was indeed stopped by the villagers to talk to him on the way. What he said at the dock didn't take long before it spread throughout the village. Everyone heard that their family was preparing to dry squid again, so they thought of drying squid and selling it to them. , make a lot of money.
Although some people said that they did not accept other people's products and only kept their own to show off, everyone did not give up and pulled Ye's father. What if they wanted it? It is true that their family is very popular now.
The villagers also wanted to talk to Ye Yaodong just now, but he kept riding his bicycle back and forth. The villagers only said hello to him and wanted to talk more, but he hurried away like a gust of wind, so they just Being able to talk to Ye's father who was full of joy.
Father Ye walked up and down, cheerfully. Under everyone's compliments, he felt a little drifting when he walked. He also regretted that he didn't see the family's fishing boat setting off firecrackers in the morning.
When I came over, I couldn’t hold back the smile on my face.
"Are you still talking about me all day long? Aren't you so happy that you can't find your way around? It takes a long time to walk, and your mouth will be split to the back of your head. I'm not like you." Mother Ye saw the way he entered the door. I couldn't help but say.
"What's wrong with me? I was just dragged along to talk for a while."
Ye Mu glanced at him and said, "Just as you were talking, Dongzi bought another piece of land."
"Ah? Where?"
Ye Yaodong told his father what he had discussed with Ah Qing before. He also told his father-in-law that his father-in-law would send 2,000 kilograms of fresh fish back to kill and dry it tomorrow morning.
"Why don't I know anything?"
"You just listen to people's good words on the road."
Father Ye gave him a worried look. The third child no longer consulted him when making decisions.
"I also wanted to discuss it with you. Who knew you hadn't come over for a long time? I called one after another and didn't have time to wait for you."
The old lady also smiled and said: "Dongzi is not a child anymore. What's more, buying land to build a workshop is a good thing. Then the women in the village will also have work to do and can earn more money."
"Whatever he does you think is good, and the shit he poops tastes good to you." Father Ye said angrily.
