Catch the sea: start with a sand shovel and take over the entire beach

"There's a thousand pounds of rhubarb...well."

Chen Dong's eyes were very poisonous. When he got the order, he saw the most valuable column at first glance, and he exclaimed in excitement.

Fortunately, Zhao Qin was prepared and quickly covered his mouth.

Several people next to them looked at the two of them inexplicably. Zhao Qin quickly released the guy and smiled sarcastically at them.

"Brother Dong, don't get excited. Can you swallow these goods? If not, please help me contact two cars and I will deliver them to the seafood market overnight."

"You're kidding, I can't swallow this, just wait."

Chen Dong was excited by him and lost his earlier excitement. He carefully read the items on the list and started making phone calls.

Seeing him like this, Zhao Qin stopped worrying and walked to where the tricycles were parked and watched them unloading.

As a shipowner, it's okay to steal occasionally if you're lazy, and besides, someone from above has to keep an eye on it.

Baskets of goods were moved ashore and loaded into cars.

"My dear, we encountered a school of hairtail."

"The market has been good these two days, it seems to have reached 18 yuan."

"Look clearly, it's a black eye belt. You can't buy it for less than 40 yuan. If you buy it, it will probably cost more than 30 yuan."

"This basket must weigh forty kilograms. There must be more than 20 baskets after unloading. I'm afraid it won't weigh a thousand kilograms. My dear, it's better if the boat is bigger. It's just a thousand kilograms of catch."

Seeing this efficiency, Zhao Qin frowned. When would he have to offload this? Taking advantage of Chen Dong's phone call, he thought about asking the other party to find a few more people.

"If you're not in a hurry, it looks slow. Three or four hours is about the same. Besides, if there are a few more people, the cabin will be so big, and it won't come quickly."

Zhao Qin thought about this and had to be patient.

When the cart was full, Ah Chen came up and accompanied him to deliver the goods back to the collection station. Chen Dong also followed him and stacked them in divided areas in the backyard.

Fortunately, the Chen family’s backyard is big enough to accommodate even twice as many fish catches.

The three days of trawling felt like they passed quickly, and every time I came to pick up goods, I felt that time flew by. But now that I was unloading the goods, Zhao Qin was a little doubtful about his life.

Relatively speaking, he is still the most relaxed one. It’s not that he’s very tired. It’s mainly because he feels like he’s unloading endlessly and is upset.

Several people watching the excitement at the pier breathed a sigh of relief. After pulling three carts, there were finally no hairtails left.

"I'm afraid it weighs five or six thousand catties."

"More than that, there are a total of 170 baskets. Each basket is nearly 40 kilograms, which must be 7000 kilograms. Oh my god, this ship has 20 yuan worth of sea goods in one trip."

"Still unloading, what are you unloading now?"

"It's not just hairtails? Oh my God, there are only three days of good weather. Is this half a month's harvest?"

"It's impossible, the good weather only lasts a few days."

"White pomfret? Let me go. Are they all big white pomfret?"

One of them stepped forward to take a look, shook his head and said, "It's gray pomfret. It's not small. There aren't as many as hairtail."

Zhao Qin saw several people talking and had no intention of quarreling with them.

Then the trucks were driven to the collection station, unloaded and returned to be loaded again, and so on.

When the unloading lasted for an hour and a half, several spectators had lost their voices because they could not calculate how much cargo the ship had unloaded.

And they all look like they’re valuable.

Finally, when the sky was dimming, the unloading stopped. Everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Is the unloading finally finished?

Just as I was thinking this, another basket came up the next moment, and this time the basket was bigger, and it took two people to carry it up.

"It's a crab."

"Orchid crab?"

"Well, the cold storage has been unloaded, and now we are unloading the live cargo. This ship is very capable of loading."

"Nonsense, this should be a 25-meter ship, and it can carry anywhere from forty to fifty tons of cargo."

"Damn, look at people going out to sea as if they were picking up money. It seemed like there were a few baskets of spring fish just now?"

"I didn't see it clearly either. It would be terrible if it was a large yellow croaker."

"Forget it, go home and catch up on some sleep. No matter how much you have, it belongs to others."

"Hey, can you still sleep?"

"I have pink eye too, but it's not so red that I can't sleep. I'm lucky enough to be rich, but the sea is ownerless, so I won't take you to fish for it."

Zhao Qin made another trip and happened to see the breakfast shop open. He packed up 50-yuan buns and picked up a box of mineral water from Chen Dong's house for everyone to eat.

The group of people who watched the excitement left earlier, but the people who came later did not see the peak unloading time. They saw only crabs, which was quite strange.

Specializing in crab fishing?

The boat that got off the cage? No, there is no cage on the boat, it looks like a trawler.

It was daybreak, and as the last bucket of live fish came ashore, the cargo was finally unloaded. Several helpers also breathed a sigh of relief. It was still tiring to carry the cargo up the steps.

"Aqin, you go and do your work first, while Aping and I stay on the boat to finish the work," said the old cat.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Brother Cat. When you're done, come to Xianlong Aquatic Products. My eldest brother knows you. I'll go home and sleep after the accounts are settled."

"understood."

Zhao Qin took Ah Chen and others back to the purchasing station first.

There were three or four large fresh food trucks parked beside the backyard of the purchasing station. Chen Dong should have called them over.

Walking into the backyard, I found Chen Dong accompanying a few people to look at the goods.

"Just off the ship, you can rest assured of the freshness. The specifications are relatively coarse. We are all old friends. We will give you a suitable price. You can choose another one when you go back."

Listening to Chen Dong's words, several bosses nodded one after another.

"I want all the hairtails, Mr. Chen, the price..." One of the bosses was mid-sentence and stopped when he saw Zhao Qin coming in.

"Mr. Yao, this is my brother, he is a member of the family."

"Okay, they are all undercover, and they all know the market. Can we just charge 32 yuan and 8 pounds per pound?"

"The price is right, can you just use a floor scale?"

"Okay, let's weigh the empty cart first, and weigh the basket as well. I'll take the basket I'm loading now and deliver it to you in the afternoon, okay?"

"One word."

Seeing that the two of them had reached an agreement, the other boss said, "I want both gray pomfret and tilefish. Adong, please give me a better price."

"Mr. Yang, you have cooperated with me not once or twice. When did you lose money? Tell me, how much you lost, and I, Adong, will make up for it, okay?"

"Hahaha, you are the only one who can talk."

Zhao Qin was not interested in listening to them discussing the price. Again, he only earned his own share, so he led a few people to the front hall.

"Uncle, you got up so early too?"

"Haha, I can't stand having to buy fruits every day, so I contacted a fruit delivery company. The price is a little higher but the people are relaxed. I don't have to work at night and I get up early in the morning."

Father Chen explained, looked at him with a smile and said, "The harvest is very good. How far did you run?"

"The longest flight is just over eight minutes, and the weather has only been good for three days. I don't dare to go far."

"Very well, you sit down and help me look after the store while I order a few bowls of noodles for you."

"Uncle, there's no need to be busy. We just ate steamed buns and we're not hungry now."

After hearing what he said, Chen's father didn't move any further and filled his cup with water. He glanced at several young people one by one. The smile on his face became wider, but he didn't speak again.

"Dad, mother has prepared the medicine."

Zhao Qin drank two cups of tea and was already soaked with sweat from unloading the goods. At this moment, he felt a little sleepy after relaxing. He was so sleepy that he suddenly woke up when he heard the sound coming from the stairs.
