Wu An smiled and said, "There's a mantis shrimp that weighs over 1,000 jin."
"A blue crab weighing over 50 kilograms."
"A stone crab weighing a little over 100 jin (50 catties)."
"A blue crab that is seventy or eighty years old."
"A mix of fish from Pepsi, including rockfish, mullet, and filefish."
How do you feel about the trip?
Ah Jin scratched his head, thinking to himself that the harvest was certainly good. If other fishing boats could have such a harvest in a day, the boat owners would be grinning from ear to ear.
But it was Wu An who called him.
He muttered to himself, but dared not be careless and replied, "Okay, that's definitely a good idea."
"Don't you have white-lipped mussels?"
Wu An said, "There are definitely some, dozens more than last time."
"We won't be using the private dock this time."
"Find two reliable helpers."
“We’re unloading the cargo right here at the dock. We’ve already sorted it all out, and the white-lipped oysters are hidden at the very bottom of the net baskets.”
This whole set of excuses was given to him by Old Fu, and he just used it directly.
It's not that private docks are no good, but rather that docks in town offer better value for money.
Even unloading cargo at a private dock is not 100% safe.
With the catch pressing down on them, the chances of finding the white-lipped clams hiding underneath are almost zero.
When unloading cargo at a private dock, you have to clean the dock thoroughly and efficiently, and you can't hire any helpers. Just a few people will be exhausted.
This trip yielded so many white clams and a catch of fish. After we're done, we still have to clean up the dock. I doubt we'll be able to finish in one night.
If you make money but then exhaust yourself and end up with health problems, it's not worth the expense of medical treatment later.
Akin hesitated: "Wouldn't it be unsafe to unload the cargo at the dock?"
"Why don't we call my boss and ask him to find someone else to borrow a private dock?"
Wu An said, "Other people's docks aren't necessarily idle, and borrowing them repeatedly isn't a good idea."
"Unloading cargo at the dock should be fine as long as we are careful and keep a close eye on it."
Ah Jin said, "Okay, I'll do as you say."
The goods belong to Wu An.
Wu An already had a plan. Even if something went wrong, Wu An would take responsibility; there was no need for him to say anything more.
After hanging up the phone, he quickly called Gao Qiangqi.
Gao Qiangqi was quite surprised to learn that Wu An had acquired a large number of white butterfly shells.
Ah Jin sighed, "Brother An's trip to sea is just like buying goods. No, even those who are in aquaculture would probably be envious if they knew about Brother An's situation."
“I know when Brother An goes out to sea.”
"At most, it's not even 24 hours."
"Not to mention the white-lipped clams, the catch alone would be enough for two or three meals."
"How can you finish it in so much time?"
After listening, Gao Qiangqi chuckled and said, "Among all the fishermen I've met in all my years of business, Ah An has the best luck."
"Putting aside the white-lipped clams, this catch of tens of thousands of dollars is just a drop in the ocean for Ah An."
"The Goddess Mazu and the Dragon King were fighting over who got to feed them."
Ah Jin lowered his voice and said, "Boss, he always manages to come back with a full load. He can't just rely on luck; he must have some special skills."
Gao Qiangqi asked, "Want to know?"
Ajin: "Yes, I do."
A day at sea can easily yield tens of thousands of dollars in catch; nobody wants that, and nobody would be tempted.
If he had that ability, he wouldn't need to be someone's lackey.
Going to sea offers freedom and the opportunity to make money; it's something even a god wouldn't trade.
Gao Qiangqi said, "Then ask A'an."
Ah Jin: "Boss, even if I ask him, he can't possibly tell me."
"It's also easy to break taboos."
"I wouldn't dare ask."
Gao Qiangqi sneered: "So you did know that."
"Stop overthinking."
"Get ready to go to the dock to pick up the goods."
After hanging up the phone, Gao Qiangqi opened WeChat and started sending messages.
After sending a few messages, Wu An's fishing boat hadn't even docked yet, but the catch had already been distributed.
Next, he opened the e-commerce platform that had already been set up and started looking at it.
This is just the first step.
Next, we need to find a suitable logistics partner.
If he can't find anyone, he plans to do it himself, which just means finding partners and attracting investment. He's very familiar with this process and has already built up his network and channels. As long as he can get things done, the future prospects of the e-commerce platform are still very promising.
This was also his initial plan.
but.
When Wu An learned that he wanted to do e-commerce, he directly suggested that he also do seafood processing, such as vacuum-packing fresh products and dried products, and promote them to the national market through public e-commerce.
Wu An spoke with such passion that Gao Qiangqi was completely stunned.
During this time, he had been pondering and had to admit that Wu An's idea was good and the business prospects were also very good. However, this approach resulted in the business expanding to a much larger scale, directly jumping from a market worth tens of millions to a market worth hundreds of millions.
He might not be able to handle it.
...
The town's dock.
Once the fishing boat was safely moored, Wu An checked the time; it was 11:15 p.m. Although the dock was still lit at this hour, there weren't many people around.
Ah Jin brought two men with him, claiming they were his own brothers.
I greeted them.
Wu An lit cigarettes for them, and while smoking, he began unloading the goods.
Someone came to take a look.
Several others, who had met a few times before, took the initiative to greet Wu An.
Wu An responded with a smile, muttering to himself, "These guys are the most familiar to me, why are they so idle?"
"Come back so late, what good stuff did you catch?"
"Oh, a mantis shrimp."
"This is not commonly seen around here, and not many people eat it."
"I caught some recently, and they only cost a little over forty yuan a pound, which is not as good as orchid crabs."
"Hey, this isn't a basket full of orchid crabs. Oh, that's all. They've been replaced with stone crabs."
"No matter what, the handsome guy's gains are much better than ours."
"That's right."
These people say one thing, but their expressions tell a completely different story.
What kind of person would gossip like that?
Wu An ignored him. He and A Jin got off the boat and stood by the truck, looking at the catch, which was only about two tons, or about a hundred net baskets.
Five or six people worked together to move it, and they finished quickly.
"Let's go to Brother Qiang's villa."
Wu An called out, and A Qing and Mei Wu followed the car. Old Fu didn't leave; he had to stay behind to tidy up the fishing boat and replenish supplies to prepare for the next day's voyage.
We have to seize the good weather; we can earn so much money in a day, we can't afford to waste time.
We arrived at Gao Qiangqi's villa.
Upon arriving at the villa, Gao Qiangqi sent the two helpers away to rest. They then carefully prepared the white butterfly clams and moved them to the backyard. He then had the two helpers take the catch to the market, saying that someone was already waiting to receive the goods.
After the truck left, they closed the door.
Several people each took a small stool and sat down to start prying open white butterfly shells.
This time, Wu An learned his lesson.
He pulled some white butterfly shells to his side and said he would only pry open these, not one more.
