Chapter 637 Taking care of business
For the first time, he led the fleet to the Zhuanghai Ocean, where he fished at A Sanyang, and did not think of entering the wider sea immediately. He led the fleet to carry out fishing operations at the intersection of the two oceans. The result was that all the crew were satisfied.
But for Zhuang Haiyang, which led the crew around to find fishing spots, fishing was more of a coincidence, and his real purpose of coming here was naturally to the shipwreck. But the final result disappointed him a little.
After looking around the chart, Zhuang Haiyang finally said: "It seems that if you want to find a shipwreck, you can only be near the territorial waters. But at that location, you can't salvage the shipwreck even if you find a shipwreck. It's really not easy to find a shipwreck in this place."
Although not finding a shipwreck of great value does not mean that the shipwreck was not found. At least for Zhuang Haiyang personally, he still salvaged some good things on some shipwrecks buried deep in silt.
If some of these gems are taken back to the country for sale, I believe they can create a considerable wealth for him. There is no one of them that is truly suitable for fleet fishing. Fortunately, he is used to this loss.
If the shipwreck was so easy to find, I would probably have countless treasure hunting ships to search for the shipwreck in this area. In addition to searching for valuable shipwrecks, Zhuang Haiyang undoubtedly has more knowledge of the sea conditions at the intersection of the two oceans.
Just as Zhuang Haiyang guessed, submarine monitors were also found in the waterway suitable for fleets and submarines to pass through. Some of them were known to be the ones that were done by that country, and there were many of them deployed by neighboring countries.
Zhuang Haiyang will record the locations of all discovered monitors. With these monitor distribution maps, domestic fleets will come here for ocean sea training in the future, and these monitors can also be avoided to avoid intelligence leakage.
The sea areas that the fleet sailed this time also collected relevant information about the route. These data will also be uploaded when the fleet returns to the country. Such navigation data is very important to the navies of various countries.
Under normal circumstances, fleets of various countries sail on the high seas, so there will naturally be no problems. But for many countries, fleets of other countries suddenly appear within their high seas, they will still seem more vigilant.
Seeing three fishing boats full of fishing catches, Zhuang Haiyang also said directly: "Start back to the voyage!"
Just like when we came, the fleet was always highly vigilant during the process of passing through the Strait of Malacca. Because the materials and oil materials carried were sufficient, the fleet naturally did not need to dock at other countries' ports to carry out supplies as long as the sea conditions permit.
The fleet that passed through the Strait of Malacca safely and began to enter the high seas outside the South China Sea was a little relieved. However, the fleet that had been out for more than ten days was not at ease, and still returned at full speed as when they came.
Until the fleet entered the waters controlled by the country, all the crew members breathed a sigh of relief: "Finally go home!"
Entering the sea area actually controlled by the country, these naval crew members can feel the warmth and safety of home. Occasionally, when they see fishing boats fishing nearby, everyone will feel very intimate.
In such a sea area, it is naturally difficult to see fishing boats from other countries. If you have the opportunity to see the cruise warships, everyone will be even more happy. Sometimes, two ships even lean against each other and have a brief exchange!
For warships that cruise and escort in the surrounding waters, they all know what the Fisherman fleet is. Most of the officers and old non-commissioned officers of the fleet can find their old comrades who were in the army in the Fisherman fleet.
When the fleet arrived at the waters not far from Nanshan Island, Zhou Shengjie also asked: "Where is the fleet going back to Nanshan Island first, but returning directly to Baoling Port? Some fishing goods need to be under Nanshan Island, right?"
"Well! Some of those live seafood will probably be temporarily stocked in our cage. So many expensive seafood will probably not be able to digest for a while. Put some goods first and transport the rest back to Baoling before talking about it."
"Okay! Do you want to go there in the town?"
Facing Zhou Shengjie's inquiry, Zhuang Haiyang thought for a while and said, "Pick some crabs and lobsters, live seafood and some frozen seafood, and then drive a boat to trade it. Anyway, you will have to sell it back to Baoling, right?"
"That's right! But these seafood, the fishermen in the town, aren't they going to eat?"
"It's okay! They still have no problem with a boat of fishing goods. If they really can't eat them, they can only transport them to the island next time. Our seafood is good, and some of them cannot be caught in China at all. Let's drive the way first, and it will be easier next time."
Similar to the sailfish that is difficult to catch in domestic waters, this time it caught more than a dozen tons in A Sanyang. Fortunately, the sailfish can be frozen and preserved, so it cannot be sold in a short time, so Zhuang Haiyang doesn’t have to worry too much.
But for fishermen who cooperate with Zhuang Haiyang, if they want to continue to cooperate, they must find corresponding sales channels. If nothing unexpected happens, Zhuang Haiyang will also supply them with various seafood from A Sanyang this year.
To put it simply, these seafood are also called imported. The prices of imported seafood are naturally different from local seafood. The prices can be sold at a lower price than other imported ones, but if they are too cheap, it will undoubtedly impact the market.
After the fleet returned to the port, Zhuang Haiyang also made some seafood to make it a meal with the fleet and employees stationed in Nanshan Island. Taking advantage of the opportunity to go back to the old house to rest, Zhuang Haiyang also called several fishermen in the town respectively.
When he learned that Zhuang Haiyang had recovered all the seafood fished by A Sanyang, several fishermen were also excited: "Don't worry! We will definitely eat a ship of cargo. As long as the seafood is of good quality, the price and sales will definitely be fine."
"Okay! Don't say I don't take care of your business. I originally wanted to take the fishing goods to the fishing market on the island. Since you can eat it, I will increase the shipment in the future, but the amount of frozen products will be higher."
"Thank you, Brother Zhuang, for taking care of it! A large part of the seafood we purchased is sold outside the province. As long as there are good goods, we can also contact a capable buyer. As long as the supply is stable, we will definitely eat a lot of goods in the future."
"Okay! I will bring the cargo here later, you can prepare it. In terms of price, not according to the price of imported seafood, but at least I can't suffer too much. While you make money, don't let me suffer too much, right?"
"That's sure! Then we'll meet!"
Whether he is close or not, he is from his hometown. Even though Zhuang Haiyang's business is getting bigger now, he will still choose to take care of his family's business. It is precisely because of his approach that he has a good reputation in the town and a good reputation.
Whether it is a businessman or a town official, he has a good evaluation. During the fishing festival every year, although Zhuang Haiyang sometimes does not participate, the sponsorship fee he gives is still ranked first.
In addition, in recent years, the Yu Po Scholarship Fund established by Zhuang Haiyang has also allowed many students with good character and academic performance to receive scholarships and finally completed their studies smoothly. This reputation for doing good deeds has also made more people convinced and admired him.
For the people of the town, it would be very honored to have such a rich man. Not to mention anything else, just to say that the farms in Nanzhou and even the whole country are now famous. Many people in the town would say that they were run by the people in their town.
The waters around Nanshan Island will soon be designated as marine ecological protection zones. For the town, it can also receive corresponding subsidies provided by the state. Although this money will not be directly distributed to town residents, it can also improve the town's finances.
When the government has money, it will naturally spend money on people's livelihood projects. For example, poverty alleviation funds and agricultural subsidies can also bring corresponding changes to poor families in the town. All of this is naturally attributed to Zhuang Haiyang.
There are many rich people who do good deeds occasionally, but those who persist in doing good deeds are still relatively rare. On the other hand, the fishing woman scholarships in Zhuanghaiyang also spend a lot of money every year, and the amount is increasing every year.
It is true that Zhuang Haiyang can make money, but it is naturally extremely rare for him to spend so much money to do good deeds every year!
When the ocean-going fishing boats docked in the town, the fishermen who received the call came in advance also began to check the various seafood fished back this time under the guidance of Zhuang Haiyang. The first thing they saw was undoubtedly the fresh seafood kept in the water tank.
Looking at the lobsters that were salvaged, many fishermen said excitedly: "Wow, such a big lobster, have you caught a lot this time?"
"It's okay! Compared to crabs, there are still not many lobsters. These are the ones I can sell for you to distribute. These lobsters are alive. As long as there is no problem during transportation, it will be fine for ten days and half a month to keep them."
"Well! Such a big lobster, those high-end seafood restaurants, are probably going to rush to buy it!"
In addition to lobsters, Zhuang Haiyang also picked some green crabs weighing more than one pound. Two fishermen who specialize in selling crabs were naturally very excited when they saw these crabs. This kind of top-quality crab naturally had no worries to sell.
But he didn't know that all the real best crabs caught by Zhuang Haiyang were not transported. Zhuang Haiyang planned to sell these big green crabs weighing more than two kilograms in his restaurant.
I believe that putting these big blue crabs on the counter will also attract many crab lovers. It is of great help to improve the profit and fame of the restaurant. Crabs can undoubtedly be cultivated for longer.
When the group arrived at the freezer, they saw the neatly packed seafood, and the fishermen also felt their eyes shining. The number of sailfish and tuna among them was so scary that they were extremely surprised.
But these seafood are also considered common seafood in China. Although the price is not cheap, these fishermen are still confident of selling them. As long as the price is right, they can still make a lot of money!
In a word, the seafood that Zhuang Haiyang fished back from A Sanyang still did not disappoint these fishermen. After some bargaining and confirming the prices of various seafood, Zhuang Haiyang also ordered the crew to start unloading the goods.
