The next morning, Xu Lin and Zhou Pin drove directly to the base gate to wait for Zheng Ming to set off together.
After waiting for about ten minutes, Zheng Ming's convoy arrived, consisting of trucks, and set off in a grand procession.
More than three hours later, they arrived in Jinshi. The convoy delivered equipment, and Zhou Pin said he wanted to build a seawater desalination plant there. Water is scarce now, and after seawater is desalinated, apart from the taste not being good, it is no different from ordinary water.
On their first visit, the base's leaders also came, and they introduced Xu Lin and Zhou Pin to the dock manager, allowing them to come and fish freely from now on—a pleasant surprise.
The two didn't spend too much time exchanging pleasantries with the leaders; they grabbed their small fishing boat and headed out to embrace the sea. By the way, they could use this small fishing boat freely from now on.
As usual, the two sailed to the deep water area, where Xu Lin took out high-tech fishing tools and began fishing. The two rested in the cabin, pulling in the net every half hour to collect the seafood into their spatial storage.
The two took turns resting. Zhou Pin's fish were piled up in the cabin, waiting for Xu Lin to get up so they could collect them together. Xu Lin's fish were stored directly in her spatial storage, since no one in the cabin could see them anyway.
When Zheng Ming and the others went back, Xu Lin and Zhou Pin did not go with them. They only gave Zheng Ming some seafood to take back, and then went to the market to buy another batch to take back.
"I'm not saying this to be mean, but what's the difference between you two and doing charity? You can catch fish yourselves, so why do you keep buying seafood from the market? It's such a waste of time and money."
"I do," Xu Lin replied with just those three words.
"Fine, fine, you're the boss, you make the decisions." Zheng Ming stopped arguing, probably because he had been reprimanded by Wang Jing.
"Just hand it over to Wang Jing and Jingjing. They know the process. It's just that I might be a little busy while I'm not around."
"The Earth stops spinning when you're not here! Hey? Have you ever thought that the fact that it's still bright all day might mean the Earth has stopped spinning?"
"Anything is possible," Xu Lin said dismissively.
Zheng Ming glanced at Xu Lin, turned around and left. He figured he should just go home and hug his wife.
After seeing Zheng Ming off, the two returned to the deep sea to continue fishing.
It wasn't until Zheng Ming came over again and told them that the shop was almost finished being renovated and that he could start selling as soon as he got back that the two reluctantly followed the group home.
They arrived at the shop first, unloaded the seafood, and this time the two of them didn't want to stay at the shop to clean up at all; they just wanted to go home and rest.
When Zhou Pin woke up, it was already the next day. Xu Lin took out a boxed lunch and told him to rest and not to cook.
"The group-buying app is already working. Should we install it to test it out? That way, we can operate group-buying on our phones while staying at home and see the number of orders. It's very convenient."
"Is that even a question? Install it right away, and keep one dedicated work communicator in the store."
Zhou Pin took a communicator out of the study and gave it to Xu Lin, saying, "Use this new communicator. It has more functions and is the latest model. Keep the old one at the shop."
Xu Lin took it; it looked much better than the previous one and worked smoothly, so she happily accepted it.
Zhou Pin installed the group-buying app, and the two arrived at the store. Wang Jing had just seen off a customer and took the communicator, expressing her doubts.
"This device has group-buying software installed. We'll be accepting orders both online and offline. We'll keep this communicator in the store," Xu Lin explained.
"Online group buying?"
"Yes, the communicator just launched a new software, so we can take orders through the software. Of course, traditional offline group buying will continue."
