Chapter 1358

Ye Yaodong still had to go check what goods were left behind to see if his father had made any mistakes.

It was just as well that A-Cai was still there. If the goods were not left correctly, they could still be adjusted.

A-Cai was already shocked and envious of his two factories.

How come he had only been away from home for a month, and he had already started two more factories?

He hurriedly pulled Ye's father to ask about this and that.

Anyway, the goods were almost weighed, so he was just waiting for the trucks to transport them back and forth. He just happened to ask Ye's father about the situation.

The workers had been moving goods all morning. Now that everything on the shore had been moved, they started moving other goods onto the deck.

There was a large portion of miscellaneous goods piled on the deck itself.

Ye Yaodong just glanced at it and went in and out to check the varieties of fish.

He confirmed that his father had remembered to keep the corresponding goods, and had also kept a lot of deep-sea squid and a portion of cheap goods needed by their own workshop.

"Brother Dong, these on the deck were left on the last day of the return trip, otherwise they should have been thrown into the sea to save space."

"Third Uncle said to just bring them back to dry. For the parts not suitable for drying, he already let the factory drive a tractor over to pull them back for fermentation earlier."

"These lifted out now are said to be goods needed by other factories..."

"Just waiting for you to come over and take a look, confirm it, and then lift it to the shore for you to arrange delivery."

Several workers gathered around him to explain these goods to him.

Ye Yaodong nodded, "Got it, I have an idea."

He sent them off to continue working and went ashore to talk to his father.

"The goods kept are no problem, let's arrange it this way. How long has the tractor from the factory gone back? When will it come over?"

"No problem is fine. Why don't you make a phone call and ask? It's been two hours, right?"

"Then I'll let them move the goods to the shore first."

A-Cai pulled him and said, "Brother, you're really capable now. Don't forget your brother when there's something good..."

Ye Yaodong raised his eyebrows and glanced at him, "Didn't I not forget you? I called you directly to the city to collect the goods. How long has it been, and you've started calling for your father and mother, and shouting to the heavens."

"Hehe... isn't it because my ability is small, my appetite isn't big, and I still want to dream..."

He was amused, "That makes sense. Your goods are already loaded on the truck, and you can still stand here and talk. Are you not busy? Are there too few goods?"

"Busy, busy to death. Then you get busy, you are a big boss now, I dare not delay you..."

Ye Yaodong patted him twice, turned around, and went back to the boat to direct people to move the goods to the shore, and then stack them by category, so it would be convenient for him to send them to the corresponding factories by variety later.

Over the past month, he had run quite a few trips every few days.

He was familiar with several factories and could assign the quantities well.

After the tractor from the factory came over, he had people load the goods, and by the way, he also hired a truck to follow and deliver the goods together.

Dozens of tons of goods had to be delivered in several trips to various factories.

Ye Yaodong let a few workers from the fish sauce factory stay here to watch the goods and let his father take the goods on the boat back first.

A-Qing was already waiting there at home.

And he took the remaining workers to deliver goods one by one.

After handling all the goods, he let the workers go back to the fish sauce factory and rode his motorcycle back himself.

By the time he got home, it was completely dark. His father had also arrived home long ago, the goods had been unloaded, and the workshop was brightly lit and working overnight.

Lin Xiuqing greeted him at the door, "I thought it was too late and you would wait until tomorrow to come back."

"Seeing that it wasn't dark yet, I thought about coming back directly. What time did my father get home?"

"He got home after 3 o'clock. After unloading the goods, he just had dinner and went back. He gave me the payment and cargo list for the goods sold during this period."

"I'll give you mine too, you calculate them together."

He sold goods now, except for A-Cai who was a bit more lenient, everything else was settled on the spot. But even at A-Cai's, it had to be settled within half a month at most.

"I've calculated it. The payment for the goods brought back by Father is 3236 yuan. In the past 20 days or so, refueling and ice have cost about 7000 yuan."

Ye Yaodong nodded. Normal, that boat just needs to refuel once, and it starts at 4000 or 5000 yuan.

They caught a lot of goods and sold a lot of money, but the consumption was also large.

Selling those cheap goods to the fresh-fish collection boat, after offsetting the money for refueling and ice, it was not bad to have a few thousand left over, without losing money.

It wasn't much different from last month.

The valuable ones were still the ones collected by A-Cai after docking. The total price of the goods on today's cargo list was more than 13,000.

Then the goods collected by several factories were also settled for more than 4000. This was cash, and he gave it to A-Qing together with the cargo list.

Lin Xiuqing went back to the room and calculated the several cargo lists, "It means that this trip sold about 【amount】, spent about 7000 yuan on refueling and ice at sea, and you added 6000 yuan before departure. Net profit is about 【amount】."

"Not bad. After deducting 1350 for the wages of 15 workers, that boat earned more than 10,000 this month, not including the squid left for the workshop and those to be dried."

She nodded with a beaming smile.

"You still earned more when you came back last month. Last month you could earn 20,000. Just those two moonfish were worth 3000 yuan, and the tuna also sold for more than 3000."

"You also said that was last month. Going to sea is all about luck. No one knows what will be caught. If you are unlucky, there will be garbage goods that can't be sold, and you will lose everything."

"Crow's mouth. This month is also quite good. Last month, squid silk earned us more than 30,000, which just happened to subsidize the investment in the cannery. Father brought back a batch this afternoon. He said there were 70,000 or 80,000 jin, which will definitely sell for another 20,000 or 30,000. It just happened to continue. My father said squid silk sells super well, and there is not much inventory left."

"Yeah, before doing it, I knew squid silk wouldn't be bad. It's much better than anything else. No one can refuse delicious food. Has it started drying?"

Just selling those processed squid silk on the market would be much better than that boatload of goods.

From the low price of the original catch to the production factory, and finally to the consumer, the profit from beginning to end is too huge.

He directly catches it himself, processes it himself, and sells it himself. Eating all the profits himself is just too cool.

One-stop service, without making things cheap for others.

And he also wholesales it, not retail price, and he has already made a fortune, several times more than the bitter boatload of goods he caught.

"As soon as it was unloaded this afternoon, I had people process it, and it's already drying. Do you want to go take a look?"

"Yes..."

He immediately walked out of the room to take a look, but the old lady stopped him.

"Where are you going? I've cooked the noodles, eat first, otherwise it will get mushy later..."

Ye Yaodong went to pull out a pair of chopsticks, picked up the soup bowl, and walked out, intending to eat while walking.

"What is this child in such a hurry for? He doesn't even sit down to eat. He hasn't even warmed his seat after coming back, and he's going out again. He even has to carry his meal on the road..."

The old lady muttered, looking at his back, and followed him to the door.

Seeing Lin Xiuqing following closely, she pulled her and said, "You don't stop him, tell him to finish his meal before working..."

Lin Xiuqing hummed and hawed, and walked to Ye Yaodong's side.

"I let the machine dry and run at the same time as drying. Like last month, everyone is skilled now, so efficiency will definitely be higher."

Ye Yaodong slurped the noodles and nodded, "You arrange it. You are arranging all these things, I don't need to worry. I'm relieved to have you here."

She pursed her lips and smiled.

"Women can hold up half the sky, that's absolutely correct. In our family, you can hold up the whole sky."

"Nonsense, it's clearly the sky you held up."

"Yeah, the one I held up, and then you came to hold it."

Although she had heard sweet words many times, they still made people happy and shy.

She changed the subject, "Now we don't have to worry about bad weather."

"The workshop is still too small, with only two small low-power machines. Efficiency is too slow, and it mainly depends on drying. Now that I can see the market prospects, I'm thinking about ordering medium-sized machines. I guess production won't be that fast, so let's pre-order, right?"

"You decide, I'll listen to you."

"Let's wait until this batch of goods is all dried and take a look. After all, the dryer has just arrived. We'll have to see how it goes for a while. Let's wait until next month."

"Yeah, you're right."

Since he could dry squid silk and dried fish, he was thinking about whether he could start a kelp factory in the future. At that time, he could dry kelp knots, kelp heads, kelp silk, kelp rolls...

If you master one method, you master all methods.

Now all these seafood products rely on drying. These dryers haven't been popularized yet, so the output can't be considered high.

Transportation problems are limited in various parts of the country.

So this era is really an era of picking up money.

Ye Yaodong pondered these while slurping noodles.

The thinking in his brain had already radiated out, and he was thinking blindly.

By the time he walked to the entrance of the workshop, he regained his composure. Thinking now is just thinking in vain, it's better to do it step by step.

Some things can only be considered small-scale. It can make money now, but it will be difficult in the future.

The most important thing is to have your own factory, receive the goods collected from the sea, and have a one-stop service of production, processing, and sales. This is the perfect ecological chain.

Now he can only say that he has taken a step and just has a little prototype.

Lin Xiuqing saw that he was still eating and asked with concern, "The machine inside is still drying, you sit down and eat first. It's the same after you finish eating. There's nothing to see now."

"It's okay."

He originally wanted to check the drying situation of the machine during the day, but he received a call from his father temporarily, so he hurried to the city and didn't have time to take a look.

He stood at the door and slurped a few big mouthfuls. The noodles were already at the bottom. He drank the soup. He didn't eat the side dishes like shrimp and clams. He poured them on the ground, and the dogs at his feet licked them clean, without wasting anything.

At this moment, he had no heart to peel these troublesome things, so it was just right to give them to the dogs at his feet.

He handed the bowl to A-Qing and walked towards the inside with big strides. He could hear the sound of the machine running.

The workers moving goods back and forth saw him and called out "Brother Dong" in unison.

Ye Yaodong just nodded and continued forward without stopping his steps.
