"Director Li, could you possibly lower the price a bit?"
"I can't lower the price. I haven't even made any money off you. I'm giving it to you at cost price. Ten thousand yuan is the lowest I can go."
"Let's discuss it."
Feng Ye turned to look at A-Can and Feng Xuan, and the three of them huddled together and discussed in hushed tones.
After a long while, Feng Ye turned to look at Factory Director Li: "Alright, ten thousand it is. Do you want to pay now, or do you want to pay it together with the final payment after the work is completed?"
Factory Manager Li said with a smile, "Pay 3,000 yuan first, and the remaining 7,000 yuan can be paid together with the final payment."
"good."
As Feng Ye spoke, he opened his handbag and counted out 3,000 yuan.
They originally came to order fresh seafood, and brought all the money they earned from this voyage with them.
"Please wait a moment, I'll draft a supplementary agreement."
Factory Director Li did not take the money. Instead, he got up, went behind his desk, took out a blank agreement from the drawer, and began to write furiously on it.
In no time, a supplementary agreement was drafted.
He picked up the agreement, walked up to Feng Ye, and handed it to him: "Mr. Feng, take a look. If there are no problems, please sign it."
Feng Ye took the agreement and read it carefully.
The agreement was made in duplicate, clearly stating that the Ziqihao's positioning device would be replaced with a satellite navigation device, and the cost and payment method were the same as those stated by Director Li.
He nodded: "No problem, I'll sign."
After saying that, he picked up a pen and signed his name on both agreements.
Factory Director Li also signed his name and then handed one of the copies to Feng Ye: "Boss Feng, keep this safe, it's your proof of ownership."
After signing the agreement, Factory Director Li went to find the finance staff to collect the money and issue an invoice to Feng Ye.
After all the formalities were completed, Feng Ye asked, "Director Li, when can the Ziqi ship be delivered?"
"Some equipment hasn't arrived yet, but if it doesn't delay the schedule, it should be delivered before the end of the year."
After thinking for a moment, Director Li gave a rough timeframe.
Will it be delivered before the end of the year?
Feng Ye said happily, "That's pretty fast. We'll just have to wait for Director Li's good news."
His biggest fear is that the small yellow croaker season will come next year and the fish still won't be delivered, which would cause a lot of trouble.
He was confident he could earn over 200,000 yuan by having a large ship stay on an island in the sea for more than a month.
Feng Xuan and A-Can also looked on with anticipation.
The sooner we pay for the ship, the better, so we can help them make money sooner.
"Don't worry, it can be delivered before the new year, it definitely won't be delayed until after the new year."
Factory Director Li patted his chest and assured them, "We also want to finish building it as quickly as possible so that we can make room to build other ships."
Feng Xuan then asked, "And what about the fresh seafood collection ship? How long does it take to build?"
Factory Director Li pondered for a moment: "If we place an order soon, we can probably deliver it before the beginning of the year after next."
Having previously booked the Purple Aura ship, none of the three were too surprised.
"Okay, we'll go back and think about it some more, and give you an answer in a couple of days."
Feng Ye was eager to finalize the order for the seafood collection vessel and sign the contract right now.
Although it was expensive, and the price was a bit higher than expected, there was nothing I could do but accept it.
However, the problem is that there isn't enough money in my bag right now.
The price is as high as 360,000, and a 30% deposit is required, which is quite a lot.
They made a lot of money on this trip, almost 100,000 yuan, but it wasn't enough to pay the deposit, so they had to go home to get more.
"Okay, that's right. Such an important matter as buying a ship should indeed be carefully considered, and we shouldn't rush into a decision."
"Thank you very much. We've kept you company for so long. We've taken up your time."
"It won't cause any delay; this kind of preliminary consultation work is also part of our service."
"Then we'll be going now."
Feng Ye stood up, shook hands with Director Li, and the group left the shipyard.
As soon as they left the office, Ah-Can couldn't wait to ask, "Brother Ye, should we order this seafood collection boat or not?"
"Order, of course we'll order."
Feng Ye made a firm decision about the tunnel.
Feng Xuan sighed, "It's just a bit expensive."
"It is indeed expensive, but that's to be expected, considering how big it is."
Feng Ye said, "The sooner you order, the better. Besides, it might be more expensive to order later."
As you all heard, that 30-meter-long cargo ship cost less than 290,000 last year, but this year it's jumped to 310,000, a full 20,000 yuan increase.
"Okay, whatever you say, I'll order!"
Ah-Can gritted his teeth and nodded in agreement.
Feng Xuan nodded: "Then let's place the order."
"Okay, let's go home first. We'll bring the money over after we've finished dealing with Ah-Can's family matters."
The three of them talked as they walked toward the Dong Sheng ship docked at the shipyard.
"Hey, Ye-ge, do you think we should go to the shipyard in the city to ask about prices?"
"this……"
Feng Ye frowned. "Isn't that necessary?"
Thinking back to when they bought the boat last year, they went to the city to inquire about prices and found that they were more expensive. They believe that the same applies to boats used for collecting fresh seafood.
However, he wasn't really sure what the shipyards in the city would quote.
"Ah Ye, I think it's better to ask around, just in case it's cheaper."
"Yeah, Ye-ge, it's no big deal to ask. Even if it's not cheaper, we can just come back."
Feng Ye thought about it and felt that what they said made sense.
After all, 360,000 is not a small amount, so if possible, every little bit saved is a good thing.
"Okay, then let's find some time to go to the shipyard in the city and ask about the price. But don't get your hopes up too high, I estimate the price will be even higher."
"Even if it's more expensive, comparing prices from different vendors makes us feel more at ease, doesn't it?"
"There's something wrong with buying these things; you have to know which is more cost-effective."
"Okay, we'll go to the city to inquire about prices in a couple of days. If it doesn't work out, we'll come back in the afternoon to place an order."
"Can."
"Yes, that's for the best."
After the three of them discussed and agreed on their plans, their steps became lighter, and they soon arrived at the Dong Sheng ship.
It's getting late, past eleven o'clock.
After boarding the boat, they quickly started it and headed home.
Fortunately, after another night, the waves had subsided considerably and were no longer as turbulent as they had been the day before.
The Dong Sheng was sailing on the sea and was almost unaffected.
At the current pace, I might still make it home for lunch.
Ah-Can was steering the boat, while the Feng brothers were doing the accounts in the back cabin, preparing to pay commissions to Ye Chenliang and the other four boatmen.
We're heading home soon, so we need to give them to them before we disembark, lest we forget them later and cause trouble.
There are also red envelopes; we plan to give one to everyone this time.
However, this is the last time we'll be sending out red envelopes.
Unless there's a specific reason, I won't send any more messages when I go out to sea in the future.
