"Brother Xiaoyun, what should I do?" Chen Xiaonan asked.
Being introverted, he was a little at a loss at the moment.
Chen Xiaohu was a little angry. The boat rental boss was a little unreasonable and raised the price.
"It's okay. I'll go ask another charter company." Chen Xiaoyun comforted the two of them.
Although he had already guessed that it might not end well, he still went to confirm it.
After arriving at another boat rental company at the pier, it was exactly as Chen Xiaoyun expected.
The two companies joined forces to try to trick him.
This other charter company charges 25,000 a month, one deposit and one payment.
After hearing this, Chen Xiaoyun left directly.
At worst, he would buy a boat by himself, and he didn't want to be slaughtered as a fat pig.
Although the cost of renting a boat can be obtained by just going to sea.
But Chen Xiaoyun doesn't have the kind of character to be manipulated by others.
But if you buy a boat now, it will take some time before you can get the boat.
Seeing Chen Xiaoyun return, Chen Xiaohu and Chen Xiaonan came to greet him.
"How's it going, Brother Xiaoyun?!"
"The two chartering companies joined forces and wanted us to rent the ship at a high price." Chen Xiaoyun said.
"How could this happen?" Chen Xiaonan was puzzled.
"Why can't it be like this?"
A voice suddenly sounded, causing Chen Xiaoyun and the others to look.
Lin Jie came over with his two younger brothers.
"Lin Jie, why didn't you go to sea today?" Chen Xiaoyun looked at the person and said with a smile.
Lin Jie touched his nose, smiled, and said, "I'll wait for you here!"
"Why, you still want to go to sea with us, but you can't do it today." Chen Xiaoyun smiled.
"What's going on? Why don't they rent a boat for us?" Chen Xiaohu couldn't help but ask.
"This is Brother Xiaohu, don't you know? Now during the fishing ban, large fishing boats are not allowed to go out to sea, so more people are renting small fishing boats." Lin Jie explained with a smile.
Here in Nanguang Province, the fishing ban begins on May 15th.
More than three months, until August 20th!
The fishing ban has just ended!
"No fishing season? That's not the case!"
Because large fishing boats are not allowed to go out to sea during the fishing ban period, it doesn’t make sense that we won’t rent a boat to them.
"Haha, who asked you to go out to sea and catch a lot of fish? Those people are jealous. Either rent a boat at a high price, or you can buy a fishing boat yourself and wait for a while."
"After all, when the fishing ban comes, the prices of all kinds of seafood soar. Those two bosses want to take advantage of you."
"In addition, some fishermen are also very jealous and don't want you to go to sea during this period."
After listening to what Lin Jie said, Chen Xiaoyun and the others understood.
During the fishing ban period, large fishing boats are not allowed to go out to sea, and small fishing boats become in short supply.
Then the two charter companies heard that they went out to sea and caught rich fish, and they wanted to raise the price of land.
"Take him in your mouth!" Chen Xiaohu couldn't help but swear.
"If you can't rent a boat, then go buy one!" Chen Xiaoyun didn't care.
The money he has now is enough to buy a small or medium-sized fishing boat.
At worst, I just don't go to sea these days.
Lin Jie frowned: "No, Chen Xiaoyun, I have a boat, can't you just take me under your wing and let us mix with you?"
Chen Xiaoyun looked at Lin Jie: "Brother Lin, stop making trouble."
You, the once "big boss", are willing to lose face and become my little brother and hang out with me? !
"Chen Xiaoyun, let me say it again, we really want to hang out with you!"
"Let's do this. The three of us only need 10% of our income, or you can pay us monthly wages. I'm telling you this seriously." Lin Jie said sincerely.
They go fishing on their own, and sometimes they can’t even get back the gas money.
Every year, a large number of fishermen give up their livelihood at sea.
If this continues, Lin Jie and the others will have no choice but to change careers.
After all, you have to support your family and earn money to eat!
The children at home are also crying for food.
If there is no heavy weight on one's shoulders, who would want to be ordered around? !
"Brother Xiaoyun, can you trust them? If you can, give them 10% of my share. With one more person, you can catch more fish." Chen Xiaohu also said bluntly.
They are fishing at sea. One more person can indeed catch a lot more fish.
Chen Xiaohu was not afraid of Lin Jie's anger, except that Lin Jie and his cousin Chen Xiaoyun were classmates.
The other two people were not very familiar to them.
"I guarantee with my personality that there is nothing wrong with their character. Although we don't study much, we still know the word loyalty and righteousness." Lin Jie assured firmly and forcefully.
He has elderly people at home, children and a family of his own, and he will not make fun of his family.
If his two younger brothers were not of good character, he would not take them to sea with them.
Chen Xiaoyun also knew that they made money by fishing, not by fishing with nets.
The more people fisher, the more fish they can harvest in one trip.
To be honest, Lin Jie is not a bad person, having lost the frivolity and arrogance of his youth.
Apart from fighting, stealing, robbing, raping and other crimes, he has not committed any crimes.
Otherwise, Lin Jie would not have been in jail for only two years.
"I can take you with me, but I have agreed that the catch will only be divided between the three of you 10%, and it will always be 10% from now on. It will not increase. If you can accept it, you can hang out with me. If you can't accept it, you should go back! "Chen Xiaoyun said it very straightforwardly.
Chen Xiaohu was willing to give out 10%, which was also the reason why Chen Xiaoyun was willing to let go.
10% of the catch is shared, not much, but not much! !
For the sake of his old classmates, he could accept Lin Jie and the other three as employees.
"Do you agree?"
Lin Jie was overjoyed, and then said hurriedly: "Yes, yes, we are very willing, 10% is already very high, thank you for being willing to take us in."
The 10% share will be based on Chen Xiaoyun's past gains.
That’s several thousand, tens of thousands!
They divided it among three people, and each of them had an income of two to three thousand.
This is ten times better than going to sea by themselves!
"From now on, you will be my brother. This is Fang Kai, and this is Wang Yuan. Call me brother!" Lin Jie's direct attitude turned 360 degrees.
Lin Jie was also willing to give up his face. He called him by name a few minutes ago, but now he just licked his face and called him brother.
"Brother Chen!"
"Brother Chen!"
Fang Kai and Wang Yuan are also very good at making things happen, and they directly call them brother.
Fang Kai is 1.7 meters tall, has a round face, and is a bit strong.
Wang Yuan is also a little over 1.7 meters tall and has a thin face.
"Brother Chen, let's go, use our boat to go to sea first. When Brother Chen buys a big boat, we will follow you on the big boat to go to sea." Lin Jie felt a little lighter.
He couldn't make any money, including the money for his children's milk powder and schooling. The pressure to support his family weighed on him, and he was discriminated against when working outside.
With no other way to go, he had no choice but to move bricks at the construction site.
Fortunately, Chen Xiaoyun was willing to accept them now.
Lin Jie and the three of them called out "Brother Chen", which made Chen Xiaoyun feel like a boss in a mixed society, and they all felt a little arrogant.
"Well, help move things. I'll use your boat to go out to sea for a few days. I'll buy a larger fishing boat in two days." Chen Xiaoyun nodded.
Lin Jie's eight-meter fishing boat is half the size of the fifteen-meter-long fishing boat they rented.
If there are too many people, it is necessary to change to a larger fishing boat, otherwise the catch will be too large and the live fishing bins and frozen bins on the fishing boat will not be enough.
Fang Kai and Wang Yuan helped move things quickly, which saved Chen Xiaohu and Chen Xiaonan a lot of work.
On the pier, medium-sized fishing boats are parked in the harbor.
Nowadays, only small fishing boats can go out to sea. At Qinwan Pier, there are no small fishing boats anymore.
Lin Jie can drive a fishing boat, and now he can switch with Chen Xiaonan.
After all, no one is so tired from driving!
"Let's go, let's go!"
Chen Xiaoyun waved his hand, giving orders like a captain.
Chen Xiaonan drove a fishing boat and six people went to sea together.
This small eight-meter fishing boat can travel fifty nautical miles, which is already its limit.
"Brother Chen, do you choose to fish here or go forward?" Lin Jie asked.
