Mr. Yang shook his head. "No, it is a social group with independent legal personality formed voluntarily by enterprises, institutions and individuals legally engaged in fisheries and related industries."

"It's mainly to implement national fishery policies, and relevant experts come to provide training, overseas exchanges, and commercial mutual benefit to protect the interests of members. It's a bit troublesome to offend them."

Hearing this, Liu Meilan smiled and said, "If I hire Chen Dewang to do something and offend them, will you stop buying my seafood?"

When Mr. Yang heard this, he sneered, "That won't work. My family's business is the most important. Those messy relationships cannot affect my restaurant's purchases."

"What about the others?" Liu Meilan asked.

Mr. Yang thought for a moment and said, "I have such courage, but others may not. After all, if you open a seafood restaurant, your boat may not be able to provide enough seafood in terms of quantity and variety. You need to purchase from others. If they join forces with other fishermen and do not sell to the restaurant, you may be in trouble."

"Mr. Yang, aren't you afraid that they won't sell to you?" Liu Meilan asked.

"Don't worry, I can get good products, my prices are high, and I pay you on time. There will be people who are unwilling to heed the warnings of the so-called association." Mr. Yang replied.

Liu Meilan thought for a moment, then looked at Tang Xiaoyu, "Go check how much seafood our customers need in total? Also, let's see what attitude these restaurants have after being warned by the so-called Fisheries Association."

Mr. Yang is not afraid, and Liu Meilan is even less afraid and is full of confidence.

He has confidence in his seafood and in the Liu family’s status in Shenzhen.

Tang Xiaoyu had such a good relationship with Liu Meilan that he immediately understood Liu Meilan's intention. "Meilan, do you want to buy a second-hand boat?"

Liu Meilan nodded. "Yes, it takes too long to wait for a new ship. A second-hand ship is faster. It doesn't matter if the price is a little higher, but the ship must be as new and as safe as possible. When inspecting the ship, you also need to find a reliable person to check it."

Tang Xiaoyu introduced, "Mr. Yang's uncle is in charge of the second-hand ship market in Shenzhen, and he knows these ships very well."

Hearing this, Liu Meilan's eyes lit up, "Okay, Mr. Yang! Can you help me make an appointment with your uncle tomorrow afternoon?"

Mr. Yang smiled and said, "Sure, let's go to my restaurant tomorrow! I'll treat you all, let's get together."

Liu Meilan shook her head. "How can I let Mr. Yang pay for the meal? After all, it's my business, so I should pay for it."

Mr. Yang waved his hand, "This is my territory, I will treat you. In the future, if there are customers or they want to dine, Mr. Liu can bring people to my restaurant to show his support. Isn't that making money for me?"

Tang Xiaoyu nodded, "Meilan, agree to it."

There is a reason why Mr. Yang was able to open Liu's Seafood Restaurant and why every branch's business is so good.

Doing business, after all, is about dealing with people.

"Okay, I'll borrow Mr. Yang's precious place to treat us tomorrow." Liu Meilan did not continue to refuse and accepted Mr. Yang's kindness.

Liu Meilan said to Xu Kaifa and Tang Changping, "Everyone hasn't had a good rest since last night, so hurry up and go to the company cafeteria to eat! If you're willing to squeeze into the company dormitory for one night, stay there. If not, you can still catch the last bus."

Mrs. Chen smiled and said, "Captain Meilan, let's eat something and go back early. Sleeping outside is not as comfortable as at home."

Xu Kaifa said the same thing, "Me too, let's go home."

Liu Meilan nodded, "Okay, let's go eat. Don't force yourself. We have helpers here, so you don't need to stay up late."

At Liu Meilan's urging, everyone went to eat.

Everyone else left, but Wu Yong and Zhou Ze didn't leave.

"Why didn't you two go back?" Liu Meilan asked in surprise.

Wu Yong smiled and said, "We've all left, and no one knows where the catch is, so we came here to help. We're both single, so it's pointless to go back. When we're done, we can just stay in the dormitory for one night and go back tomorrow."

Liu Meilan nodded, "Okay, you guys make your own arrangements. I'll be back tomorrow afternoon after I finish my work."

"Captain, don't worry about us. We are retired and have great skills. No one dares to bully us." Zhou Ze said with a smile. It would be a good time to go shopping tomorrow and buy some things to send back home.

This time there were big yellow croakers again, which caused a sensation at the dock again.

In order to grab the yellow croaker, those customers not only quarreled but also almost fought.

In the end, it was Tang Xiaoyu who stepped forward and divided the profits among the families.

The vision was limited and the speed was slower.

It wasn't until eleven o'clock that I finished.

After the fishing boat was cleaned up, Liu Meilan followed Tang Xiaoyu to Tang Xiaoyu's house in the city.

Tang Xiaoyu pushed open the door and said, "I prepared this for you. How is it?"

Seeing the furnishings inside, Liu Meilan breathed a sigh of relief, "I'm most afraid that you'll paint the room pink."

"Haha!" Tang Xiaoyu laughed secretly, thinking of the room that Grandpa Liu arranged for Liu Meilan. "Of course I know your preferences. Grandpa Liu decorated your room like it was for an eight-year-old Liu Meilan, not an eighteen-year-old."

Liu Meilan smiled and said, "Actually, everything is good and beautiful, but I like things to be simpler."

Tang Xiaoyu opened the closet. "Here are the clothes I prepared for you. Go take a shower quickly. There is hot water here all day long."

"Yeah, okay!" Liu Meilan yawned, found her underwear and pajamas, and went to the bathroom.

Ten minutes later, Tang Xiaoyu brought a bowl of soup. "This is the delicious soup I cooked this afternoon. Drink a bowl before you go to sleep."

Liu Meilan knows Tang Xiaoyu’s cooking skills. Not only does she like to eat it, but Tang Xiaoyu also knows how to cook it.

As if she had some kind of talent, she could cook almost anything Tang Xiaoyu had eaten.

Although he has talent in this area, Tang Xiaoyu only likes to cook for himself, his family and friends, and does not like to be a professional chef.

After eating, Liu Meilan brushed her teeth.

Have a good sleep.

The next morning, Liu Meilan slept until twelve o'clock.

The sunlight shone onto Liu Meilan's face through the gap in the curtains.

She stretched and woke up from the bed, but did not get up.

Liu Meilan hadn't slept since the morning of the day before yesterday, until midnight. Now she has finally made up for her sleep.

Tang Xiaoyu went shopping, came back quietly, entered the kitchen and closed the door.

While cooking in the kitchen, I tried not to disturb Liu Meilan.

Liu Meilan smelled the scent and sat up from the bed.

I’m hungry, so I’m going to try Tang Xiaoyu’s cooking at noon today.

Hearing the noise, Tang Xiaoyu poked his head out of the kitchen, "Meilan, did you sleep well? Did I disturb you?"

"No!" Liu Meilan smiled, "I slept very well last night. I lay on the bed and slept till now."

"That's good. Hurry up and wash up. We'll have dinner in twenty minutes. If you're hungry, the soup is ready. Have some first."

"Okay, I'll be right there." Liu Meilan applied a layer of lotion on her face and went to the kitchen. "What soup?"

While serving soup to Liu Meilan, Tang Xiaoyu introduced it to her, "Chinese yam, Chinese yam and pigeon soup is made with pigeon, Chinese yam and Chinese yam as the main ingredients. After stewing, the soup is rich and delicious. It has the effect of nourishing the spleen and stomach and beautifying the skin! Drink more of this soup, and you will look better and better." (Photo)

Liu Meilan took it, took the spoon and sipped it, "Xiaoyu, your cooking skills are really good. Although Xingwang Restaurant has this kind of soup, and it tastes good, but I always think yours tastes better."

Tang Xiaoyu said modestly, "The chef does it better, I can't compare. Besides, my ingredients are simple, and I eat them at home, so I eat pure natural food without so many seasonings."

Liu Meilan drank two bowls of soup in a row while Tang Xiaoyu prepared all the dishes.

In order to make Liu Meilan eat better, Tang Xiaoyu specially prepared five dishes and one soup.

A plate of honey-glazed barbecued pork has bright color and fragrant aroma. Even the presentation is very beautiful.

Liu Meilan had to admit that Tang Xiaoyu had a very high taste in life.

The second dish is Hakka stuffed tofu. (Photo)

A small hole is dug in the tofu and stuffed with delicious meat filling. It is fried until golden and crispy, but the inside is tender and juicy. When you take a bite, the fragrance of the tofu and the freshness of the meat filling explode in your mouth, which is very delicious.

The third dish, roast goose.

The whole goose is removed from the wings and head, and roasted until the skin is crispy and the meat is tender. Under the golden and crispy skin is the tender and juicy goose meat. When you take a bite, your mouth is full of oil, and it is so delicious that you will want to lick your fingers!

The fourth dish is braised Chinese cabbage.

The fifth dish is cold spinach salad.

The sixth dish is the soup we drank at the beginning, yam, Chinese yam and pigeon soup.

Liu Meilan just focused on eating and didn't bother to talk.

There were mostly seafood on the boat, and Tang Xiaoyu specially prepared meat dishes for her, which was so thoughtful.

If she were a man, she would definitely pursue a smart and capable woman like Tang Xiaoyu.

Tang Xiaoyu was very happy to see Liu Meilan love eating so much.

Her job, while important, is not physical.

Liu Meilan's job is at sea, and she may not be able to sleep at night.

As the captain, he has to drive the boat and sort the fish. He is not used to being idle, so he will help with the work.

Tang Xiaoyu understood Liu Meilan's hard work, so after Liu Meilan came ashore, he prepared the most comfortable room and the most delicious food for her.

Liu Meilan ate in silence and had no time to talk.

Seeing that Tang Xiaoyu didn't eat much, Liu Meilan asked, "Xiaoyu, why don't you eat? Aren't you hungry?"

Tang Xiaoyu smiled and said, "I had breakfast, so I'm not very hungry now. I'll just have some soup."

Liu Meilan smiled and said, "I'm too sleepy today. I'll go to bed earlier next time. Let's have breakfast together."

"Yeah, okay!" Tang Xiaoyu nodded. "I asked the old accountant about it. It's a shop that has been open for many years. The food is quite good."

Liu Meilan saw so many dishes on the table and blinked, "I can't finish all these dishes. We still have to go to Yang's Seafood Restaurant tonight. It's a waste."

"It's not a waste. Brother Zheng will be here soon." Tang Xiaoyu replied and picked up a piece of roast goose for Liu Meilan.

"Ah?" Liu Meilan was stunned. "Why didn't you say so earlier? I ate first. It was so rude."

Tang Xiaoyu waved her hand, "You work so hard, of course I have to take care of you."

Just as he finished speaking, someone knocked on the door.

Tang Xiaoyu looked through the peephole and saw that it was his cousin.

Tang Zheng came in and smiled when he saw Liu Meilan. "Meilan, was your trip to the sea smooth?"

Liu Meilan replied: "It went smoothly."

Tang Xiaoyu explained to his cousin who was washing his hands, "Our Meilan is amazing...she saved nine lives!"

Tang Zheng was surprised and gave Liu Meilan a thumbs up, "Meilan, you are amazing."

Liu Meilan said modestly, "Thank you for the compliment. Sorry, Brother Zheng, I'm a little hungry. I'll eat first."

Tang Zheng didn't care and smiled, "We are all family, no need to be polite. By the way, this weekend, I will go house hunting with Sister Liwen. Meilan, you have made money, do you need to invest in buying a house?"

Liu Meilan nodded. "Yes, the money in the passbook is just cold numbers, and the interest rate is not as high as the housing price growth rate. It's best to use it to buy a house. When the time comes, give it to your agency to rent out."

Tang Zheng nodded, "Okay! When the time comes, when I take Sister Liwen to look at houses, I'll help you look as well. With the speed at which you make money, you'll be able to buy a unit soon. It will be convenient to renovate and rent them all out."

"Well, OK!" Liu Meilan agreed, "Xiaoyu, when the money is divided at the end of the year, you can buy it too."

Tang Xiaoyu nodded quickly, "Buy it. You are so smart and you all think buying a house is profitable. Of course I can't fall behind. Thank you Captain Meilan for helping me make a fortune. I was able to buy a house in such a short time."

Yesterday’s earnings: 590,000.

She got 10% of the dividends, which is 59,000, plus the previous 140,000, it is nearly 200,000.

She expected to make money by doing business with Liu Meilan, but she didn't expect to make so much money.

It was the right decision to quit my job and start my own business.

Tang Zheng was eating Tang Xiaoyu's food, and he kept sighing, "My Xiaoyu's cooking skills have improved, and the taste is even better."

Tang Xiaoyu smiled proudly, "Of course, except for roast goose, I don't have the conditions to make it, but I can make everything else. Since you think it tastes good, then you can eat more."

"Brother Zheng, we are going to Yang's Restaurant tonight to discuss buying a second-hand ship. Mr. Yang will introduce us to his uncle, who is in charge of second-hand ship transactions in Shenzhen and knows the most about various second-hand ships."

Tang Zheng nodded, "Okay, I'll go with you guys tonight."

He wants to get in touch with people from all walks of life and bring business to the law firm.

Although he is mainly responsible for international cases, there are not many such major cases.

You always have to get more clients and arrange things for other lawyers.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, Liu Meilan and Tang Xiaoyu were ready and met Zhou Ze and Wu Yong outside the door.

"You two didn't go back to Sifang Island?" Liu Meilan was surprised. "Did you have a good rest in the dormitory last night?"

Wu Yong replied, "There is hot water in the dormitory. Manager Tang prepared everything for us. We slept very comfortably. We learned from the accountant that we were going to buy a second-hand ship and we had to go to a restaurant to discuss business. Zhou Ze and I were worried."

"Although we are not good at talking and cannot negotiate business, we can fight. If anyone dares to provoke the captain, Zhou Ze and I can beat them to a pulp."

Liu Meilan smiled and said, "Okay, let's go together."

Tang Xiaoyu praised, "Wu Yong, Zhou Ze, you are very good. At the end of the year, I will increase your bonuses."

Wu Yong grinned, "As we should. Captain Meilan helped us make a fortune, so of course we have to do better."

"Okay!" Liu Meilan agreed, and the four of them went to Yang's Restaurant.

They met Tang Zheng near Yang's Restaurant and went in together.

As soon as the receptionist saw Tang Xiaoyu, they came forward to greet him warmly and arranged Tang Xiaoyu and his group directly into a private room.

This private room is usually used by the boss, Mr. Yang, to entertain important guests.

Those who can enter this box are all VIP guests of the restaurant, so the front desk staff cannot be careless.

After a while, General Manager Yang and a fat old man, Director Yang, walked in.

"Uncle, the seafood I sent you was purchased from the Sifang Island Seafood Fishing Company. My restaurant business is now 20% better than before, all because of the good seafood here. Later, they want to get to know you and buy a second-hand boat, so don't refuse."

Hearing this, Director Yang smiled and readily agreed to his nephew's request, "Don't worry, I know the importance of it. You have been filial to me for these years, how can I let you do it for nothing? Don't you just want to buy a better second-hand boat at a cheaper price? It's a small matter."

When Mr. Yang heard this, he reminded Director Yang, "Uncle, you don't have to violate the principle. You should pay the right amount. Mr. Liu can earn hundreds of thousands of dollars each time he goes out to sea. He has plenty of money. Mr. Liu and Manager Tang require a second-hand ship, as new as possible, and it must not be an accident ship, let alone one with any problems."
