After Ye Yaodong figured it out, his face looked a little better.

An arm can't twist a thigh, now it's a seller's market, if you don't make up the price, you won't do it, and there is no room for him to question.

Now advance the delivery date by one year to arrange a boat for him, although it is said that he still has to make up the money, but at least calculate the interest of the 200,000 money for him according to the bank's interest rate, and offset it a little.

This can also be considered as him taking advantage, and also making up less money.

The most critical thing is actually to advance the delivery date by one year and make up the boat that others don't want to him.

So what reason does he have not to agree.

He confirmed again, "The 43-meter boat you mentioned, can it be delivered together with my 45-meter boat, right? Calculated according to the price of the original contract order? 200,000 calculated according to the bank interest rate to make up the half-year interest for me, can you make the decision?"

Factory Manager Shen said, "I dare not guarantee it, but I can try my best to fight for it, after all, 200,000 has also been pressed for half a year. And this boat is not wanted by others, we also need to find a buyer to take over, who is it not given to?"

"Okay, if this can be done, then I accept your price increase agreement, and the orders for the two boats remain the same."

"Ah? Remain the same? Both boats remain the same? Not reduce one?" Factory Manager Shen was a bit stunned by what he said.

"Yes, I ordered it, why should I reduce it? The order has been scheduled for me, not allowed to change, only allowed to advance, not allowed to delay."

"Okay, then no problem, many orders have been withdrawn recently, now it's just right to move your delivery date forward. If these people go back on their word and want to come over to continue the order, then let them be scheduled behind."

"And you have already increased the price once, won't you tell me it has increased again at the end of the year or next year?"

Factory Manager Shen smiled and said, "No, definitely not. Now that it's set, it will definitely be prepared in advance. Who knew that the price increase this year would be so outrageous. Now that it's set, it's set."

"Then you re-list it clearly for me on the contract."

Ye Yaodong didn't believe it, and after two years, he would tell him it had increased again.

Although it's a seller's market, it's all up to them, even if it has to increase again, he has no choice, but now it's written in writing, at least it's black and white, and he can theorize a few sentences when he takes it out, and fight for more compensation.

"No problem, I will organize the contract later, and I will also organize the contract for that 43-meter boat for you."

"Take it out and show it to me now, and take me to see the boat later."

He had to set it as soon as possible. What if someone didn't want the boat, went to another place to take a look, found it more expensive, delayed the delivery date, felt it wasn't cost-effective, and came back to want it?

This is not impossible.

Factory Manager Shen responded and started looking for the contract.

Ye Yaodong also said to his eldest and second brother, "Didn't Factory Manager Shen just say there are four or five boats that don't accept the price increase? And they are all being built, the delivery date should be available very soon. Do you want to choose a boat directly, which can also reduce the delivery date of waiting for goods."

Both of them were hesitant, "Is this price increase too much?"

Factory Manager Shen didn't even lift his head and said, "Not much, do you know how much steel is per ton now? Ordinary steel is 1500 per ton, pig iron is 1200 per ton, scrap iron is 1000 per ton, I heard it's still rising. If you come in two months, it may not be an increase of 1/3, but an increase of half."

Both brothers couldn't sit still.

"Does it need so much?"

"It didn't need so much in the past few years..."

"Comrade, the past few years are the past few years, now is now. The past few years were reform and opening up, the economy had just begun to develop, what has it developed into in the past few years? Go to the Magic City to take a look, there are high-rise buildings rising from the ground, some with dozens of floors. Where did you look in the past few years? Just construction, the consumption of this steel is so large, can it not increase in price?"

Both of them couldn't refute after hearing it. They had only been here at most, how could they understand these building materials.

Ye Yaodong felt that the price of these building materials he said must be falsely high, exaggerating to bluff them, but the price increase was true.

He said, "I see Factory Manager Shen will have to flip for a long time, I'll go out and talk to my eldest and second brother, so as not to disturb you."

Factory Manager Shen nodded.

Ye Yaodong raised his chin at his eldest and second brother, signaling them to go out and talk.

As soon as the two went out, they discussed it themselves, and they didn't need him to say anything at all.

Those who understand understand, the boat is definitely earned earlier if it arrives earlier.

It's just that hearing the price increase so much, they are a bit unwilling to spend so much money. After all, it was quite cheap in the past few years, and there was a gap in their hearts, so they didn't want to buy it expensive.

But prices have been rising in the past few years, and they also have a count in their hearts.

After all, there are hundreds of people in the camp, and people add new boats every year. Everyone can know how much money was spent and how much the price increased by just communicating casually.

"You were originally planning to buy it, I think you can set it as soon as possible, taking advantage of someone not wanting it, pick one with fast progress."

"Otherwise, if someone goes to inquire elsewhere and turns around to go back on their word and wants it again, then you won't be able to pick up this semi-finished product."

"At that time, the money will have to be added, and the delivery date will have to be waited for in vain. Who knows how long it will take to have a boat after the deposit is given."

"The one I pre-ordered at the end of last year was returned to me, and I was told the price increased. You now have semi-finished products that you can want directly, which is also easier."

"You also know that if it arrives early, you can earn money early. The 1/3 increase now is worth it because the semi-finished product can arrive a whole year early."

Ye Yaopeng nodded, "We also know what you said makes sense, and we think so too, it's just..."

Ye Yaohua took the conversation, "It's just heartache. If we learned from you last year and came to pre-order directly, it would probably have arrived by now, and we wouldn't need to spend more money."

"Yes, Dong Zi, you are smart. You bought a large batch of boats a few years ago and started earning money early. After coming to Zhoushan in the past two years, you earned even less."

"At the beginning, I had to learn from Dong Zi, but I didn't have money at that time, and I didn't dare to borrow everywhere, and my ideas weren't as many as Dong Zi's. Even if I thought of it, I didn't dare to spend so much money."

Now you know he is wise.

People are like this, even if they think of earning money, they can't make up their minds, they can only watch others get rich, and then ponder again and again before going to do it.

"You understand now, it's not too late. In a few days, I'm going to the Magic City, maybe there will be a chance to get rich. This life probably only has this trip to get rich, don't say I didn't tell you, didn't take you."

"What?" Both of them widened their eyes, how did it get to going to the Magic City again?

"What chance to get rich? Dong Zi, didn't you say you were going to the Magic City to broaden your horizons?"

Ye Yaodong said in a low voice, "Yes, look around, broaden my horizons, and by the way, find out if there is any chance to get rich."

Ye Yaohua asked cautiously, "Then what kind of wealth can I get..."

"I don't know, how can I know without going to see it first? I haven't even been there, how would I know."

"Then how do you know you can get rich if you go?"

"I pondered it myself, after all, everyone says that big cities are full of gold and opportunities everywhere."

The two brothers looked at each other and were hesitant again.

"Let's not talk about that, just the boat we just talked about, why don't you set it directly? Once it's set, you can allocate it after you go home. If it's late, you might not have this shop after this village, there are a lot of people with needs."

And there are only a few boats that were returned, which means other buyers have to be forced to accept it.

Who let the shipyard be a seller's market.

Even so, he estimated that the remaining boats, even if they didn't come, probably wouldn't last a few days before being pre-ordered, or the buyer would go back on their word and come back to want it.

Existing production tools are never afraid of no one wanting them.

Ye Yaopeng asked Ye Yaohua, "Then set it?"

Ye Yaohua also looked at Ye Yaopeng, "Then set it?"

"Okay, anyway, it's good to arrive early. Earn money early, and you can earn back the money made up by working for a month or two."

"Then go ask, how big are the boats, what is the current progress, and by the way, let him lead us to take a look. Once we have a count in our hearts, we can talk, and then sign the contract."

"Yes, just do it, ask first, then look, look then talk, then sign the contract."

After they agreed, they entered the office again.

Factory Manager Shen also found the contract order and put it on the table, waiting for Ye Yaodong to look it over.

During the time Ye Yaodong looked at the order, the two of them also communicated directly with Factory Manager Shen.

One wanted to sell, one wanted to buy, and there was no other objection, their preliminary consciousness had been reached.

Factory Manager Shen also picked out the 20-something-meter fishing boat order they needed for them to take a look at, and then led the three brothers to see the fishing boat.

Ye Yaodong also took the opportunity to ask Factory Manager Shen to lead them to see other abandoned boats.

He wanted to wrap up the remaining three boats directly.

His eldest and second brother wanted to pick one 24-meter boat, and there were two 24-meter boats and one 36-meter boat left behind. This is a fishing ground, near-shore fishing is relatively developed, and most of them produce 20-something-meter boats, which are also relatively popular.

He already had 17 small trawlers of ten-something meters, 5 Dongsheng boats, one 30-meter fresh-collecting boat, one 44-meter fresh-collecting boat, one 45-meter deep-sea fishing boat.

Adding three more is not a thing for him, and he can earn more money, anyway, he doesn't have little money on hand now.

However, he planned to go to the Magic City, so he had to keep the cash on hand for the time being and couldn't hand it all over to the shipyard.

He went home once in the middle of last month and brought all the money he had accumulated on hand home, although he earned a lot this month, but didn't he just intercept a 40-something-meter one?

After the contract is signed, he has to take out a sum of money.

After he sorted out his thoughts, he confirmed with his eldest and second brother again and again, and after confirming that they only wanted one, he said directly to Factory Manager Shen that he would wrap up the remaining three that others didn't want.

Factory Manager Shen was shocked by his big hand.

"Are you sure? This is two 24-meter boats, one 36-meter boat, and one 43-meter boat, this money is not small."

"Sure, the contract for others to return the order should also be returned, right? You should have two copies of the contract on hand, give me one copy of the contract, let me take it back to look at it for reference, and you also re-draft a contract after the price increase."

Factory Manager Shen was shocked and couldn't help but look at him with admiration. He had already looked at him very highly, but now it seems that this young man is simply beyond his expectations.

He was only 30 years old and had such great courage. Before, the deposit given was already over a million. The salary of the old master in the factory was only one or two hundred, ordinary workers were only forty or fifty yuan, and apprentices were only twenty yuan.

In fact, this price increase of 1/3 also gave Ye Yaodong a great sense of urgency. The price increase of 1/3, doesn't this also mean that the currency has depreciated by 1/3?

Then his 1 million didn't directly lose 300,000?

I don't know if it's calculated like this, anyway, this is how he understands it in his mind now.

Then he really has to slap his thigh, quickly wrap up the remaining boats, and it will only be more expensive in a few years.

Not to mention other boats, how could a 43-meter boat be bought for less than four or five million later? It would cost three or four million to turn it over in three or four hands.

This kind of boat, except for maintenance, is not so easy to break, and it can be done for decades.

He estimated that the two cargo ships that Lin Ji Shang just got might not be pre-ordered across provinces, maybe they were also picking up the cheap semi-finished products like this?

Factory Manager Shen gave him a thumbs up with admiration, "You are the most capable and courageous young man I have ever seen."

"No, no, that was said too quickly. There are many young people like me, just didn't meet them. There are elite talents in all walks of life, you just happened to meet a fisherman like me."

"Don't be a fisherman, you are Boss Ye. At this young age, your net worth must be several million."

Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua were startled, their stools almost couldn't sit still, and their eyes were wider than copper bells.

Several million?!!!

"Where is there so much, don't scare people, look at how you scared my eldest and second brother, if I had so much money, wouldn't they know? The money I earned has all turned into boats, and I have to borrow money from friends when I go back to make up this deposit."

"Boss Ye is humble, you ordered so many boats, even the 45-meter boat has to be ordered according to the original plan."

"Don't be Boss Ye, I don't want to change what's set. I can't take out so much money now, this is the truth, you re-draft the contract first, I'll pay a deposit first, and I'll pay the balance slowly later. Anyway, I definitely want it, and I won't default on the debt, you know, I have dozens of boats on hand."

"I believe in your strength."

The boat is in the shipyard, and the boat can't be sailed away if the payment can't be paid, and there is no fear of no one taking over.

He didn't want to offend such a capable young man.

"Okay, that's it, find the order and give it to me."

"Okay, right away."

Ye Yaodong sat there and drank a few sips of tea, waiting slowly.

And his eldest and second brother's eyes were always on him, as if there were thousands of words, and they were hesitant to speak.

He pretended not to see them all.

After Factory Manager Shen gave him several invalid old orders, he looked through them casually, and then urged again.

"Are you sure? Not allowed to go back on your word, ha. These orders are considered as the first draft, you re-draft the new orders tomorrow, and when it's done, I'll come over to sign and pay the deposit."

Factory Manager Shen smiled, "Sure, then these semi-finished boats are all ordered to you, it's nailed down. The contract probably won't be drafted tomorrow, and there's your eldest and second brother's side, two days later? Two days later, you come over to sign together?"

"Two days later, then it's the 20th? Then I'll come over on the morning of the 20th."

Just right to finish this matter, and set off for the Magic City on the 23rd.

Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua also had no opinion. Buying a boat is a big deal, signing the contract two days later, the time in between can also let them consider and ponder again, and the two brothers still have to talk about how to allocate it.

After everything was set, the three brothers walked out with contracts in their hands.

Ye Yaodong had a thick stack in his hand. After walking to the entrance, he rolled it up and tucked it under his arm, and also dug into his pocket to light a cigarette.

He was suffocated to death, chatting about business in the office all afternoon, and was embarrassed to light a cigarette.

"Dong Zi, why did you buy so many all at once?"

"I was also shocked by your big hand."

"Do you really have several million?"

"I estimate that the boats you ordered that haven't arrived yet add up to over a million, right? That's scary enough."

"Just now hearing several million, my heart was beating wildly."

"Me too..."

Ye Yaodong said, "Didn't I think that there would be no such shop after this village? They are all semi-finished products, and they will be useful soon. I estimate that it won't take a few months, except for those not produced, I estimate that they will all arrive by the end of the year."

Anyway, he has many boats and earns money quickly. Depending on the weather and luck, he can earn 300,000 or 400,000 a month. As long as there is no accident, it won't be bad.

Fishing boats will only become more expensive in the future. He earns so much money, it's the same if he puts it there.

Just right, other friends estimate that they are very loose on hand now, and they are also worried about hiding money, so they just borrow it from him...

No, they also want to follow him to the Magic City.

Ye Yaodong touched his chin, then he had to borrow money from others.

It's exchanged, can't say borrow.

After going back, just take a loudspeaker and shout, saying he can exchange money here.

Some boat bosses with too much money can hand over the cash directly to him, he records it, and then let them call home and let A Qing send it to their home one by one.

It also saves everyone from remitting money, and it's not safe.

It's been half a year since the New Year, I estimate everyone has accumulated a lot of money on hand.

These three days are just right for him to raise money, and exchange all the money on everyone's hand.

You are good, I am good, everyone is good.

Let everyone exchange voluntarily, so he doesn't have to borrow money from people and doesn't have to owe money.

Everyone has to praise him for being good, providing convenience for everyone, saving handling fees, and the money can be directly reached to the family, which is safe and easy.

He can also arrange for the money exchange to be a bit private, those who are willing to exchange can enter his room one by one to register and pay, and not let anyone see it.

According to his current prestige, everyone still trusts him very much, and the monk can run away but the temple can't.

Everyone crowdsourced to exchange, then he doesn't lack money on hand, just right, the fishing boats have all returned these two days, and people are all there.

Damn fat man, I don't know if he went to apply for a phone or not. If the phone was connected earlier, how convenient would it be for everyone to call?

Upstairs and downstairs, electric lights and telephones.

It stands to reason that it should be much easier to pull phone lines now than two years ago.

After going back, urge the fat man to install it as soon as possible.

"What you said is indeed true, it will arrive soon, no need to wait, and you can start earning money immediately, which is also quite good, it's just that too much money was taken out all at once."

"If you don't give up the child, you can't catch the wolf. It's worth it. Just do it. There is no future in being hesitant."

"Sigh, I and your second brother were hesitant, otherwise we would have set the boat last year. We talked about it last year, thinking about earning more this year, who thought the price increased, and the extra earned was all earned in vain."

Isn't it earned in vain? The speed of ordinary people saving money can never keep up with the speed of appreciation, such as real estate.

"Hmm, anyway, it's not too late to set it now. You two go back and discuss how to allocate it. At that time, one boat for each, or two boats for both of you to work together and share."

"We'll go back and discuss it first, we didn't expect it to be so fast, and there are semi-finished products."

Ye Yaodong looked at the endless dirt road in the countryside and sighed, "Have to rely on two legs to walk back again, should have asked Father to send us over."

"It's not far, just walk."

"Father can't stay for half a day even if he comes over, he is in a hurry to earn money now, the time to pick us up definitely won't be so timely, all have to walk."

"Dong Zi, when paying the deposit in two days, is your money on hand enough? You ordered so many, the deposit must be a big sum."

"If it's not enough, I'll lend it to you first. We only have one boat, the deposit is not much, and there is no other place to spend money."

"Yes, if it's not enough, just say a word, we have it here for you to use first."

Ye Yaodong smiled and said, "Okay, I'm really lacking, just waiting for you to open your mouth. No need to borrow, you can give me how much money you have on hand first, I'll make a call and let A Qing take it from home to Sister-in-law, just right to exchange it for you directly, saving you from remitting money."

Both of them were pleasantly surprised.

"This is good, that can save a lot of handling fees, we are not at ease remitting money home too frequently."

"Then this is not borrowing money, it's providing convenience for us."

"Mutual benefit, just right I lack, just right you have, let A Qing pay at home is just right."

The three brothers arrived home happily, and Ye Fu immediately brought the lunch box to greet them.

"How is it? How did the fishing boat talk go? When to set it?"

"Talked well, just go sign the contract in two days."

"So fast? This is good? Don't you need to talk about some details? This is not buying cabbage, you set it so fast, didn't you say you would go take a look in the morning first?"

"Picked up semi-finished products that others didn't want, the progress is already more than half."

The three of them told their father about today's changes one by one. Ye Fu was angry that the price increased so much, but it was considered a turn for the better later?

But it's not considered a blessing in disguise, the big bleeding that should be done was done, but it was indeed taking advantage.

It's hard to say whether today's matter is a good thing or a bad thing.

"Dong Zi, will you pre-order too many?"

"Lice are not afraid of itching when there are many. Anyway, I have so many boats, what if there are a few more? Look, the price increased by 1/3 all at once, what will happen in two years? Taking advantage of the money being worth spending now, buy it quickly."

"It's really too exaggerated, it increased by 1/3 all at once, it's so much money, lion's mouth wide open, it's a loss that they can shout it out."

"No way, people's units say they will sell to you, they will sell to you, say they don't want to sell to you, they won't sell to you."

"I don't know if Brother Ahai can be so awesome in the future?"

Ye Yaodong: "..."

Where did this think go? Why did the thinking jump so fast all of a sudden?

Ye Yaopeng smiled and said, "Father, you think too much, if Brother Ahai learns for a few years, follows the master well, it's not bad to be a big master in the future."

Ye Fu said impatiently, "Look at your promise, can't you think better?"
