Chapter 575: Twists and Turns
If the weather is bad, you can actually go out to sea.
But if it's windy, going out to sea is tantamount to seeking death.
Once the wind starts, it won't die down quickly, unlike the rain on Longwei Island, which comes quickly and goes away quickly.
Unable to go out to sea, Ye Qing couldn't sit idle.
The main structure of the villa at home has been completed. This part is the easiest, and the highlight comes next.
Ye Qing doesn't have to worry about this, Zongwen will help to check everything.
Since it is a villa, an elevator is naturally indispensable.
The cost of decorating an indoor swimming pool, gym, or tea room can be higher than the cost of building it.
After Mr. Ye and Ms. Liu learned about the situation, they didn't say anything.
It is never a bad thing to build your own house well.
actually.
Nowadays, people tend to compete with each other when building houses. If you build a two-story house, I will build a three-story house. It must be big and bright.
After leaving the construction site of his own big villa, he went to the orchard, took a walk around, and then visited the construction site of the villa courtyard accompanied by Lao Cao.
Ye Qing asked about manpower, and Lao Cao said there was a shortage of manpower.
Ye Qing thought that if Lao Yuan and the others didn't have any proper jobs when they returned, it would be better to arrange them to work on the construction site first.
Anyway, Lao Yuan and his people are all rough guys. They work wherever they go. As long as they can make money, that's enough.
Just as I was about to go to Yuzhen to take a look, Kangzi called and said that there was news about the second-hand fishing boat.
Ye Qing asked him to make an appointment.
Kangzi said, "The person is at the dock now. I invited him to Uncle Lu's shop."
Ye Qing rushed over immediately.
Pushing the door open, Kangzi was sitting in the inner seat, and opposite him sat a middle-aged man with a mustache.
Kangzi saw him and waved: "Qingzi, come here."
Ye Qing walked over.
Kangzi introduced: "This is Lao Hu, from Zhongxin Town, and he's a neighbor of Aping's."
"We happen to have a 25-meter fishing boat at home."
"His son runs several 4S stores in the city. Why doesn't he go and help?"
"You two can talk."
Uncle Lu's son, a yellow-haired boy, brought over tea.
He put it down and walked to the bar and said to Uncle Lu, "Dad, why are you still running a restaurant? Let's buy a boat and go out to sea."
"Ye Qing is buying a fishing boat."
"This business of making money must be snatched."
Uncle Lu told him to go away and said, "If you want to be a fisherman, go and be one yourself. My family won't buy a fishing boat."
The yellow-haired boy walked away unhappily.
…
Ye Qing poured a cup of tea for Old Hu and said, "My son's business has grown big, and he will enjoy a good life in the future."
Lao Hu smiled and said, "It's not that big, just a few 4S stores."
"My son has always wanted to avoid following in his father's footsteps. Actually, there's nothing wrong with being a fisherman."
"If it's the same as you, then I will also become rich."
Kangzi coughed and interrupted Lao Hu. It was fine if this guy was just bragging, but he couldn't stand it when he was talking about Yin and Yang Ye Qing. He said, "Let's talk about the boat."
Old Hu coughed twice and said angrily, "Okay, okay, let's get down to business."
"I heard you were anxious to buy a boat."
"That's right. They say you're lucky. You always come back with a full load. With such good luck, how can one ship be enough?"
"One more ship is like one more pocket to hold money."
Ye Qing smiled.
What Lao Hu said sounded nice, but he just wanted to raise the price.
He said, "Tell me about the ship."
Lao Hu took a sip of tea to moisten his throat and said, "My boat is not very old, only ten years old."
"I treat the boat like my own son. No, I treat it better than my own son. I take care of it whenever it's needed."
"It's no exaggeration to say that the condition of the ship is better than yours."
"If you buy it, you will definitely make a profit."
"Now that I think about it, I feel really reluctant to let go."
Ye Qing faked a smile: "..."
Not very old?
When the ship is a person.
If a ship has been sailing for ten years, it will become an antique.
If he bought it.
It’s hard to say whether he will make money or not, but Lao Hu will definitely be happy.
He asked, “What’s the price?”
Lao Hu made a five-pair gesture and said, "Five hundred thousand."
“The price is absolutely reasonable.”
Ye Qing said, "Old Hu, tell me a real price."
Lao Hu said: "495,000."
Kangzi said, "It's not much more than the price of a new boat."
"Not to mention that you've already made your money, but if you don't drive this boat, you'll need to maintain it."
"Tell me the real price. It will only benefit you if you sell it sooner rather than later."
Lao Hu hesitated for a moment and said, "Then, 490,000."
“I can’t sell it for less than this price.”
Ye Qing said, "Let's leave it at that for now. I'll think about it."
Finished.
He simply got up and left.
Old Hu shouted, but Ye Qing didn't stop. He said hello to Uncle Lu and pushed the door open to walk out.
Kangzi followed without looking back.
He called Ah Ping, chatted for a few words, hung up, and shouted indignantly, "Old Hu is dishonest."
"I asked Ah Ping, and the rumor that Lao Hu had spread before was 400,000."
"Looking at our youth, we actually raised the price to 90,000."
Ye Qing was not angry, and said calmly: "It doesn't matter."
"If you're not sincere about selling, then don't buy it."
Kangzi nodded and said nothing more.
Ye Qing returned home.
When Lao Ye asked about the situation, he told him that he couldn't expect a new ship from the shipyard and it would take half a year to get one.
As for second-hand boats, Qiya wants a medium-sized fishing boat of more than 20 meters. There are not many boats of this size on the island, and even fewer for sale.
At present, it seems that only Lao Hu wants to sell his fishing boat.
But people treated him like a fool and tricked him.
Old Ye was helpless. He had already talked to Old Yuan and others, and they said they were willing to work on the construction site.
The wages for working on a construction site are actually not low, but Lao Yuan and his colleagues have no skills, so they can only be considered laborers, earning 200 yuan a day.
It can be considered as an explanation.
In fact, Ye Qing was reluctant to let Lao Yuan and the others go. Boatmen were easy to find, but there weren't many reliable ones. If he missed them, it would be a bit too polite.
In the next few days, Longwei Island was hit by strong winds and heavy rain. The rain was not a big deal, the main problem was the wind.
Occasionally, when the wind dies down, the pier is filled with fishermen who want to go out to sea.
But looking at the wind direction, no one dared to go out to sea.
The evil wind blew for three days before it subsided. When Ye Qing woke up, the sky outside was clear and the sea was blue.
It's a good day to go out to sea.
Ye Qing was about to make a phone call when he received a call from Officer Huang.
He answered immediately.
Officer Huang had talked to him about cooperation before, so he must have called about this matter.
Answer the phone.
Officer Huang said, "Ah Qing, have you been busy lately?"
Ye Qing said: "Not bad, the weather is so nice and we are about to go out to sea."
Officer Huang said, "That's good."
"Indeed, it's time to go out to sea on such fine weather."
"I suggest you go to xx, xx north latitude."
Ye Qing thought about it for a moment, wow, these coordinates are exactly where he and Xiao Dian overturned four enemy fishing boats and burned down the stilt house.
Officer Huang said this suddenly, it was definitely not a casual remark.
Are you pointing at him?
He said tentatively, "I heard that things are not going well over there lately."
Officer Huang smiled and said, "It's okay now."
"Previously, there were problems with several foreign fishing boats, and a fire on an island reef, but both have been properly handled."
"Our country is worried about similar incidents happening again, so we have arranged patrol ships to patrol nearby."
When Ye Qing heard this, he was a little bit enlightened. It turned out that by doing this, he was also helping the country to take the opportunity to assert its sovereignty.
Due to historical reasons, sometimes it is impossible to deal with it seriously. As a result, this time, when an accident occurred on a fishing boat from another country, our country expressed its responsibility.
But since you are responsible, you have to give us the territory.
This is not.
Other countries suffered losses and could only swallow their anger.
While Ye Qing was daydreaming, Officer Huang continued, "Look, after we completely took over that sea area, we discovered that there were many spy fish there."
"When you go over there to do your homework, keep an eye out for it."
Ye Qing said: "Of course it's no problem for me to help."
"But, I'm afraid that relying on just one fishing boat like mine wouldn't be very helpful."
Officer Huang said, "Of course you're not the only fishing boat."
"The Maritime Administration organized many fishing boats to go there."
"It's also an opportunity to spread the word that the place belongs to us now."
"If you encounter fishing boats from other countries again, you can unite and deal with them on your own."
When Ye Qing heard this, if Officer Huang was present, he would have given him a thumbs up. This was really generous.
The country wants to develop the island economy, but nowadays, many islands have been forcibly occupied by other countries. If it wants to develop the economy, it must first take these islands back.
And now, it’s time to draw the sword!
He gave two great compliments.
Officer Huang laughed and said, "If we talk about who is more powerful, the one who set the fire is still more powerful."
"Without this trigger, many actions would be difficult to carry out."
Ye Qing was quite pleased to hear this.
Just think of it as Officer Huang praising him.
After chatting for a few minutes, Officer Huang said that he would send over a device, which was a detection device designed based on the spy fish he discovered last time.
As long as the spy fish is found within range, the device will sound an alarm.
How to salvage it after discovery depends on each person's ability. Officer Huang has high hopes for this as he has caught two spy fish before.
The equipment will be delivered.
Ye Qing could only wait.
Kangzi called and asked if he wanted to go out to sea. When he told Kangzi about this, Kangzi was very excited and said that fishing at sea could bring him glory and honor. This was a good thing and waiting for a day was nothing.
Others had no objections. They were going to work at sea anyway, so it was just a matter of doing some extra work.
After watching videos for a long time and thinking about what to eat for lunch, Kangzi called and said that Lao Hu ran to the breakfast shop to eat lunch in the middle of the day and didn't leave after eating.
I contacted him through A Ping, and the implicit meaning was that he was willing to lower the price.
When Ye Qing heard this, he immediately said that he would come right away. It was not that he wanted to buy a boat, but because he hadn't had lunch yet and it was a good opportunity to go to A Ping's breakfast shop to have a meal.
