Chapter 321 Honest Boss
Seeing the excess diesel, Li Changle did not dare to continue chasing the fish. He was ready to set up the last net, so he broke down and cleaned up the fish catch. After dinner, he returned to the flight.
After Brother Li started the network launcher, he looked at the time, "It's past four o'clock, so my mother might have been going to the dock long ago and waiting for us."
Li Changle nodded, "As planned, I will arrive at home at noon. I told Annan before leaving, if it is fast, it will take two or three days, and if it is slow, it may delay one more day."
Chen Yongwei: "I said this to my grandma too, so she won't be able to go to the dock to guard the pier as soon as the time comes."
After the net bag was pulled up, the last net caught fewer fish, and the mackerel and sardines accounted for the majority.
The others are hairtail, bass and some miscellaneous fish. The valuable one is only one red sweet fish of about 30 kilograms, and there is not one other deep-sea big fish.
When the kitchen was filled with the aroma of hairtail fish stewed with radish, several people had rinsed the deck and prepared to eat.
Li's father brought a basin of oily soy sauce and braised pork on the deck, then another basin of stewed radish with hairtail and cooked some kelp and cold salad. The warship bird was still locked under the bamboo basket and had no time to clean up.
"It's time to eat, it's time to eat." Li Changle came out with the medicinal wine, poured two taels for Li's father and Li's second brother, and poured some for Chen Yongwei and two more, "Drink and have a good sleep."
"It's still the meaty smell." Chen Yongwei picked up a piece of oily pork belly, "It tastes delicious, not greasy at all."
Li's father picked up the spoon and scooped a few pieces for him and Wang Xincheng, "You're so tired! Go home and buy big pig's hooves for you to stew."
"Well! The hands that hold chopsticks are not strong enough." Wang Xincheng picked up the spoon and scooped two spoons of broth and mixed it into the rice, "I'm very hungry for meat."
Li Changle knew that the two of them were tired, "I will buy more meat to bring with me next time I go on a voyage."
Chen Amao held an enamel bowl bigger than his head and walked towards the side of the boat, "Boss Ale, what good food is, the fragrance is coming to me."
Li Changle stood up and smiled and said, "My father cooked pork belly, shredded fish and radish, come and have two drinks."
"I'll drive the boat later. I'll treat you to the side of the boat when I get home." Chen Amao walked to the side of the boat. "Every time I'm tired, I want to sleep when I drink some wine. I don't know where the boat will drive later."
Brother Li took it over and said, "Our brothers are rotating, and I don't dare to drink it."
"Only my brother and I were driving in rotation. Today I ran far away. He couldn't find the channel, so I could only drive!"
"Let him follow the Ayu Sheng number."
"It was the boat he drove in the early morning. He was tired for a day today. Let him sleep and then come and change me."
When Chen Amao saw them put the food on the deck, he started eating. Then he saw that Xu Sheng’s deck was cleaned and the fishing gear was neatly arranged.
I turned my head to look at my home and felt that it was no different from a pig's nest.
"Boss Ale, do you love cleanliness so much? Tsk tsk, you can see people when you rinse the deck."
"Wash it clean. If it's hot, don't want to sleep in the cabin. Take out the straw mat and lay it on the deck. It's much cooler to sleep outside."
Chen Amao thought about it and decided to start cleaning after dinner. He thought about it and said, "Your house is 80% full of cargo holds today, right?"
Li Changle smiled and shook his head, "I've installed most of it, is your house full?"
"Mine is almost full." Chen Amao said happily, "The bamboo baskets for the kelp are not enough this time. In the end, all the fish catches are mixed together. When they arrive at the dock, they have to hire someone to sort them."
"The same is true for my family. I have to bring more bamboo baskets next time." Li Changle said and wiped his sweat. "Did you notice that the afternoon is much hotter than in the morning? I think the weather is a little bit wrong, so we quickly ate and returned to the flight."
"Yes, sweat flows along your neck for a meal." Chen Amao hurriedly called the boatman to get water to wash the deck, packed up and set off quickly.
Li's father drank all the medicinal wine, picked up his bowl and ate it in big mouthfuls, "I'll set off after dinner, I'm worried about a storm at night."
"It's possible." Brother Li looked at the sky, "Start up and rush back later, and strive to rush back to the nearshore before the storm comes."
Three pots of vegetables and a large pot of rice were wiped out by six people. Wang Xincheng and Chen Yongwei cleaned up the dishes, and Li Changle and his son walked towards the cab.
Brother Li whistled, and after hearing Chen Amao's response, he launched the fishing boat back to sail.
After Brother Li put the intercom on, he leaned on the chair and looked at the few people with a smile on his face, "The sardines caught today were more than 10,000 kilograms, the mackerels were nearly 30,000 kilograms, and the big fish were eight or nine thousand kilograms.
Pomfret, bass, hairtail... and shrimps and crabs are one or two thousand kilograms. Add the fish caught yesterday the day before yesterday, I estimate that there are a total of more than 70,000 fish caught in total."
Brother Li turned his head excitedly, "It's still the large boat's fishing volume. Last time, we were busy for a day and caught nearly 10,000 kilograms of fish."
Li Changle nodded and said, "So Boss Chen said that he would rather borrow money for interest and buy a big ship."
Father Li: "I heard that he borrowed three-quarters interest, and he borrowed a total of three thousand yuan. The interest per year is more than one thousand, and it will double in three years."
Brother Li: "I can still make a ship of money when I go back this time."
"Yes!" Li's father looked at Li's second brother, "Aan, add up the sardines, green zhan and water crow that he caught yesterday and the day before yesterday. It should be more than 20,000 yuan, and a total of 30,000 pounds of mackerel is only more than 30,000 pounds."
Brother Li recalled, "Yes, there were more mackerels and hairtails yesterday and the day before yesterday."
Li Changle smiled and said, "The market for mackerels is not bad. Two corners below two pounds, triangles above two pounds, and four corners above three pounds. There are still many big goods this time. On average, even if a triangle is one pound, it can be sold for 9,000 yuan."
Brother Li: "Qingzhan, Shuichan can still sell 3 cents per pound, sardines are only 2 cents per pound, and more than 20,000 pounds are only 400 to 500 yuan, and even diesel money can't be earned."
"These are used to make a scale." Li Changle looked at the people with a smile, "In addition to those good goods, this trip will not only make the money from Xusheng, but also make some money from that big ship."
Next, there is Dongshen. With the current fishery resources, if nothing unexpected happens, the four of them will make a lot of money. These days, they are really brave and timid.
"Okay, okay!" Li's father took a photo happily, "Go back and have a good rest for a few days, and go out when the weather is clear. As soon as the winter flood comes, he will go to the fishing ground to catch hairtails."
Brother Li said, "Bad, Boss Chen is following behind. You all go to rest. I'll just drive the boat alone."
Father Li shook his head, "No! I have to watch here. You have been tired for a day, and you don't know when you are asleep as you watch."
Li Changle looked at the time and said to Li's father: "Now at five o'clock, I'll go to sleep until ten o'clock, and I'll exchange you for Awei."
After hearing this, Brother Li thought that the boat was still in the sea in the middle of the night, so he was not at ease. "Ale, it's better for me to change to Acheng and I to change to the middle of the night. You can change to us when we go to Turtle Island."
Father Li said, "Listen to your second brother, come and drive in the early morning, and drive in the first half of the night."
"Okay!" Li Changle couldn't say that he could drive to Wanwan alone, so he had to nod and respond.
After discussing the rotational shifts, the few people left the cab to go back to rest. The exhausted people, regardless of whether the cabin is stuffy or not, almost all of them were covered with pillows on their heads, and they fell asleep in just a few breaths.
...
At Shatou Village Wharf, Zhou Ruonan took turns to the wharf to see the boat from the afternoon, but he couldn't see his own boat returning.
After get off work, Zhou Ruonan took Li Xiaoyang and Li Xiaohai to the dock. In the afternoon, there were more ships returning to the boat. The three of them looked at the ship returning to the boat. They waited until it darkened and did not see the shadow of Xu Sheng.
When Zhou Ruonan saw Li Changshui driving the boat to the dock, he hurriedly took Li Xiaoyang and Li Xiaohai over to pick up the boat, "Ashui, have you seen your brother and the others?"
"No!" Li Changshui took the fish caught in the ground cage and the octopus caught in the jar off the boat and put it on the tricycle. "Sister-in-law, don't worry, there are too many fish caught in the sea. My brother and the others may have encountered a group of fish, but they didn't come back."
Zhou Ruonan thought of what Li Changle said before going out, and felt a little relaxed. When he saw the fish catch in the bucket, he said gratefully: "I have troubled you these days."
"No trouble!" Li Changshui smiled honestly, "The harvest of the ground cage today is not as good as yesterday. There are only two sea cucumbers, a few moray eels, and several blue crabs. The tide is pretty good, with seventy or eighty."
"It's already good!" Zhou Ruonan asked with a smile, "How is your fish harvest today?"
"Okay!" Li Changshui nodded happily, "My brother and his group caught the most fish, and I caught two good goods today."
After hearing this, Li Xiaoyang became interested, "Uncle A Shui, I want to see what good product you caught?"
"Uncle A Shui, I want to see it too." Li Xiaohai also followed Li Xiaoyang toward the boat.
Li Changshui smiled and uncovered the lid of the bucket, "A big blue spot weighing twelve or three pounds, and a black hair, which is more than four pounds!"
"It's so big!" Li Xiaoyang thought about it and pulled him, "Uncle A Shui, don't be too honest when selling good goods. My third uncle always has to pay with A Dong's family."
Li Xiaohai nodded repeatedly, "Yes, my dad bargaining is amazing. Big blue crabs are two cents per pound more expensive than the ones we sell!"
Li Changshui looked at the two little guys with a funny look, "Okay, I'll get the price with Adong later."
The three days of working on the Blowing Island were the days when he went overseas to earn the most money. He cast nets and put on longline fishing together. The few days he earned 70 or 80 yuan on the day he was short, and the good day he sold it for more than 200 yuan.
The watches given by Brother Ale were sold by Sister, and saved some more money, and then they went to install the trawl. When Mrs. Chen moved, she would have money to buy a house.
Li Xiaohai looked at him and wrinkled his nose, "Uncle A Shui, I didn't lie to you. My dad is good at selling fish. Everything is better than what you sell."
"Hmph, you don't believe it yet!" Li Xiaoyang also felt that he was kindly reminding him not being taken seriously, and he hummed in dissatisfaction, "Adong is very terrifying. When my third uncle comes back, you will know that you will take you to sell it once."
"Uncle A Shui, when A Dong saw me delivering the goods, he would add money to me." Li Changshui happily carried the fish and walked up the shore.
After hearing this, Li Xiaoyang curled his lips and shook his head, "What an honest boss!"
