While unloading the cargo, Feng Ye recounted his conversation with A-Can a few days earlier, in which he hoped the two of them would disembark and help with the delivery.
After listening, Feng Jiaqing and Feng Jialing exchanged glances, but had not yet had a chance to express their opinions.
Ah-Can added, "Dad, Third Uncle, Ye-ge and I have discussed it and are willing to give you 200 yuan a month for your work."
After saying that, he turned to Feng Xuan and asked, "Brother Xuan, you don't have any objections, do you?"
Without even thinking, Feng Xuan shook his head: "Of course I have no objection."
One is his father, and the other is Ah Can's father. What objections could he possibly have?
"Even if we're not paid, we're willing to get off the ship and help. Who else can we help if not you? But..."
Feng Jiaqing frowned and asked, "What will happen to the Harvest if we don't go to sea?"
"Yeah, I only worked there for a few months before suddenly quitting. I don't even know how to tell Xiao Zhaojun."
Feng Jialing also frowned.
"Isn't this a case of plans falling apart due to unforeseen circumstances?"
Feng Ye smiled and added, "I'll talk to Uncle Jun, so you don't need to worry about it."
Feng Jiaqing nodded: "Alright, talk to him nicely, but don't ruin the harmony."
"200 yuan, you guys are really generous."
Feng Jialing said half-jokingly, "Even if it's just for the money, I have to agree."
"Then it's settled."
Feng Ye nodded. "Ah Can and I discussed it and decided to buy another boat for delivery, but we don't know when we'll be able to buy one. So for now, we'll have to trouble you to take the goods by ferry."
Upon hearing this, Feng Xuan finally understood why they wanted to buy a boat again.
However, a new question arose: "Are these dried fish selling so well that they need to buy a special boat for delivery?"
Feng Jiaqing and Feng Jialing shared the same doubts.
Ah-Can looked around and saw that the people he had hired to do the work were all focused on cleaning the fish.
He then lowered his voice, beaming with joy, and said, "They sell so well, they sell incredibly well. Almost all the dried fish delivered to the county every day is sold out."
Feng Xuan pressed further, "When did you start drying the fish? How many were sent to the county to sell each day?"
Ah-Can said proudly, "I've been selling them for a while now, and I'm making around a thousand catties every day."
"so much?"
Feng Xuan, Feng Jiaqing, and Feng Jialing all gasped in shock.
"How come it's suddenly selling so well? The first time we only sold a few hundred kilograms and it took several days to sell them all. How come we can sell over a thousand kilograms a day now?"
Feng Xuan asked, somewhat puzzled.
Ah-Can smiled slightly: "We basically don't sell retail anymore, we do wholesale now. We only sell for a little over an hour a day, and that's about enough to sell out the goods we bring."
But his words did not completely dispel their doubts.
They knew that wholesale volume was definitely larger than retail, but such rapid growth still puzzled them.
What exactly happened while we were away from home?
"Hehe, this all started with the order from Jinghong Hotel..."
Ah-Can smiled and gave a brief account of what had happened during this period.
After listening, the three of them couldn't help but look at Feng Ye and A-Can with new respect.
"Okay, okay."
Feng Jiaqing exclaimed "Good!" three times in a row, "I was worried that so many dried fish wouldn't sell well, but it turns out you've already found a market!"
Feng Jialing nodded in agreement: "Yes, it seems we were worrying too much before."
“In that case, we should definitely buy another boat to deliver goods. It would be more efficient and wouldn’t affect your two going out to sea.”
Feng Xuan was so happy that his mouth was practically stretched to the back of his head.
Of this, whether it's the dried fish business or fishing at sea, he accounts for a quarter.
"Why don't you two just stop going out to sea and settle down in your dried fish business?"
Feng Jiaqing suddenly made a suggestion.
Upon hearing this, Feng Jialing quickly chimed in, "That's right, going to sea is too risky and unstable. It's much better to make money steadily by doing business..."
Feng Xuan's eyes darted around, as if he wanted to retort, but in the end he remained silent.
He understood that his father and Feng Jialing were concerned about their son's safety and future.
A father can't help but worry when his son is adrift at sea all day long.
After all, offshore operations are always accompanied by unpredictable risks.
“That won’t do. I don’t like a monotonous life. Fishing at sea is more exciting, with surprises happening all the time.”
Feng Ye refused without even thinking.
He truly enjoyed the thrill of battling the waves and chasing schools of fish in the ocean.
Moreover, he also has the ability to attract fish, so it's even less likely that he would abandon the essential for the trivial.
"You all know how amazing Brother Ye is. He's incredibly lucky, and every time he goes out to sea, he comes back with a full catch. How can you give up going out to sea to fish?"
"We're even thinking of buying a big ship that can go to the deep sea once we make some money."
Ah-chan was also unhappy and spoke up in rebuttal.
