Chapter 179 Time-limited mission: Gooseneck barnacles
She was being childish.
But it is also based on Xiaolin's attitude and enthusiasm for service.
And the other party actually provided them with the information they needed.
It only took ten minutes for my cousin, who had looked at the pictures and the area description, to express his desire to visit the chicken farm in person.
Half an hour later, the two came back and Shi Qingqing had already discussed with Zhao Fengnian that they wanted to buy the house downstairs.
He had enough money for the down payment and for living expenses. Zhao Fengnian's business was not very big, so he had enough working capital. In the end, he decided to go downstairs to take another look and choose the one if there was no problem.
Originally, they rented there because of the surrounding facilities, and they thought they could afford the house worth 250,000 yuan within two or three years without any unexpected problems.
Kobayashi completed three orders at once.
One of the properties is a chicken farm, one is a house downstairs from Shi Qingqing, and the other is a rental store near the edge of the new market. One of the two stores can be used for retail and display of goods, and the other is used as an office and reception room.
It is estimated that the commissions from these three orders combined are enough for Xiaolin to become famous in this store.
Of course, Shi Qingqing's family spent all their existing liquid cash and savings, and still owed 160,000 yuan.
My cousin didn't borrow from a credit union. It was Zhao Fengnian who took the initiative to borrow 20,000 yuan to help them get the money in one go.
The IOU was handed to Shi Qingqing by Xiang'er and her mother.
OK, so this is equivalent to owing 140,000?
Shi Qingqing sighed. She had some money that was difficult to put out in the open, about 20,000 yuan, which she had to keep for raising her children and could not be touched.
The landlord somehow found out that Shi Qingqing and her family had bought the house downstairs, and came to ask if they wanted to renew the lease.
Shi Qingqing said that the foundation was exhausted and she had to save money for renovation.
The landlord saw that his house had been decorated to be more cozy and convenient, and thought that he could probably sell it for another 20,000 yuan. After they moved out, he could restore it to its original appearance according to his memory.
Moreover, Shi Qingqing and her husband cleaned the house very well, so they are especially welcome to continue living there.
After things at the chicken farm were arranged, the old factory building became Zhao Fengnian and his team's exclusive warehouse. After thoroughly cleaning and disinfecting it, they re-planned the use of the old factory building and even hung up the Hengqing Agricultural Products Market sign.
Zhao Fengnian planned to cultivate some fungi and mushrooms in the extra space. He also recruited two college students majoring in agriculture and forestry near the university town. The salary was not high, but food and accommodation were provided. Moreover, this industry was not a very popular major at present, so the two prospective graduates were very receptive.
Shi Qingqing came to visit once, provided some plastic sheets, and also gave everyone a small seafood meal as a snack.
The two college students also received a thick leather notebook, two sets of desks, and a computer from Shi Qingqing.
Computers are not a rare thing nowadays, and many well-off families in big cities are equipped with them. But it can be said that this old factory, which is engaged in agricultural trade, also has computers installed.
After all this, they will have their own workstations, with computers to look up information and cabinets to store information and personal belongings. The two of them called her "Boss Lady" with great enthusiasm.
Then the low salary is not a problem.
The busiest half month for Zhao Fengnian was over, and Shi Qingqing left her child alone to go on a mission.
The third type of shellfish with high economic value that she targeted was the gooseneck barnacle, also known as the devil claw snail or Buddha's hand snail. It mainly lives in the crevices of reefs where the ocean currents are relatively frequent. It has high requirements for water quality, grows slowly, has crisp and sweet meat, and is rich in protein.
If you want to get larger gooseneck barnacles, you have to face the hardships of reefs and waves. Many foreigners have lost their lives because of this work, and even Shi Qingqing feels uneasy.
But fortunately, she had the Haihuo Mall. If the location she chose was too dangerous, she could just turn around and leave, choosing to go to a safer group of reefs and pick barnacles just like she did with oysters.
The speed difference is not that big.
As Shi Qingqing worked, the more she picked at it, the more she felt that this thing did not look like something edible. It looked like it was poisonous. No one knew who was the first to eat it and discover its deliciousness.
One piece of reef knocked off more than 60 kilograms.
It was already four o'clock in the afternoon. She had eaten a little late in the morning, so she didn't feel very hungry even though she hadn't had lunch.
I fished for crabs, octopuses, prawns, etc. here for a while, and then it was night.
She teleported back to the fishing village, went home to clean up the yard, and went to eat taro balls and lean meat soup the next morning.
The taro balls and lean meat soup in the space was almost used up, so she simply bought out all the taro balls and lean meat. They closed the store right after it opened...
"Don't leave it for too long," the boss reminded.
Shi Qingqing said that there were many workers working with her husband, and each of them finished one bowl.
We went out to sea again at nine o'clock in the morning and dug another fifty kilograms. That was enough for the task.
I came back and had a good sleep at night, and went to the taro ball shop again the next day.
Boss: ...Today, you want to buy it all?
"Yes, thank you for your help." Shi Qingqing handed over a large bucket with a lid.
Others helped carry the food to the roadside. When the bus arrived in the city, Zhao Fengnian was waiting in his car. Afterwards, the bucket of food was shared, and as expected, each person finished a big bowl.
Shi Qingqing kept a small pot for herself and sent a few taro balls upstairs for people to try.
As a result, Xu Xinyi's mother-in-law introduced a small stall that served similar food and a wider variety of snacks. Shi Qingqing went there to eat once, and from then on she would stock up some in her small warehouse every two days.
The old couple who run this stall are good at making traditional Fujian snacks. Their son and daughter-in-law run a noodle soup stall and their business is also booming.
Shi Qingqing went there more often, and both families treated her very well.
Nonsense, who doesn’t like people who give money?
If you want to stock up later, just call in advance and they will prepare extra supplies the next day.
Shi Qingqing can replicate the side dishes such as fried eggs, sausage, crispy pork and baby squid by herself, but the consistency of the crumbly noodle paste and their special cooking wine cannot be replicated. If you like the taste, it is better to buy it.
So when she went out to sea again, Shi Qingqing had lantern cakes and rice noodle soup to eat.
The task was completed, but the price of this thing was very high locally, so Shi Qingqing withheld the shells and the meat and stored them in a small warehouse. This time when she came back, she took a batch of them to the market to sell.
Although it was not competitive, the price was relatively high and no one looked at it at the beginning.
When Shi Qingqing was hesitating whether to lower the price, a white foreigner came. He looked at Shi Qingqing's temporary stall with surprise, and after careful identification, he bought all the fresh products.
Five hundred RMB per pound, and he still thinks it's very cheap.
In the end, there was only a little left at Shi Qingqing's stall, and it was bought by an old man who bargained several times but refused to buy for half the price.
Before leaving, the old man showed an expression as if he had finally waited for something.
