Chapter 441. Seafood business

Lin Qing He didn't about her youngest son's thoughts. She didn't govern him and let him make arrangements by himself.

Honestly in the money aspect, Lin Qing He managed the three sons very loosely. She wasn't like other families that didn't give a penny. The children actually save money to buy what they want.

Lin Qing He supported this.

The days passed and it was summer vacation.

Lin Qing He and Zhou Qing Bai didn't head south straight away. The couple handed over the shop to Third. Then they went swimming, watch a movie or something. They relaxed for two days before heading south.

After the two of them departed for the south, Zhou Gui Lai invited old Wang to the shop to help: "God-grandfather, you have to help me. My eldest brother isn't at home. M second brother is giving tutoring again. My most romantic parents are heading to the south and threw away their burdens. My grandfather and my grandmother have to help my aunt watch the children and send Cheng Cheng and the others to and from school."

So counting down, there was only old Wang who could come and help.

Old Wang didn't have a holiday. The school library wasn't closed yet.  He wasn't the only one over there, so he took a leave of absence for two months and came here to help Zhou Gui Lai.

In fact, there wasn't much for him to help out with. Just to help collect money and give change. Then wash hands to help make dumplings. It wasn't difficult.

This wasn't the first time that Lin Qing He and Zhou Qing Bai have thrown away their responsibilities. Now they threw it away more carefreely. Feeling completely unburdened.

Both of them were in the train carriage at this time.

Lin Qing He snacked on an apple and said, "This time let's go to the port to see if there is any seafood."

"En." Zhou Qing Bai nodded. He was reading the newspaper. As he read, he frowned.

"What's wrong?" Lin Qing He asked.

"It seems that many people have been laid off." Zhou Qing Bai said.

Lin Qing He wasn't surprised. Wasn't it due to Su Da Lin's factory being in a rocky situation, he decided to get off the boat and took the children to the capital with Zhou Xiao Mei.

Moreover, this was the period of workers being laid off. However, the private industry had also emerged in the past few years and will provide a number of jobs. The situation was already well understood. Many people will also embark on the path of business. These will be the way out.

Zhou Qing Bai flipped through the newspaper and remarked: "Ten thousand yuan households aren't rare now."
 

His heart was also very shaken. After all, it was only a few years, right? Ten thousand yuan households were rare in 1979. But this year, 1983, ten thousand yuan households can be said to pile together in the newspapers.

Lin Qing He laughed: "There is a saying that ten thousand yuan isn't rich. Ten thousand is just the starting line. One million is considered rich."

Although it wasn't a popular phrase now, this sentence will become popular in the near future.

Zhou Qing Bai couldn't help emotionally remarked that if his wife hadn't been admitted to the university and brought the family out, his horizon wouldn't broaden so much.

If one wanted to earn a 10,000 yuan household in the village, they can try it. But he knew that if they want to earn 10,000 yuan in the village, it wasn't easy.

"Don't worry, I will buy a few more plots of land in a good location and keep it. Then, I will build a few dormitories and rent them to Beijing vagabond later. When we are old and can't work, we don't have to be afraid of having no money. "Lin Qing He comforted her man.

Zhou Qing Bai grinned.

Lin Qing He leaned into his arms. Live aa a landlady. Was this not what she yearns for?

Imagine wearing pajamas and slippers, carrying a bunch of keys in hand, and yawning to collect rent. Pretty awesome.

The couple reached the south. They came to the outskirts and waited until no one was around before they drove the truck out.

Naturally, the days of being a profiteer began.

Nowadays, everyone was getting richer and richer. Even a color TV that costs hundreds of yuan was still in demand.

There were also tape recorders, electric fans, watches, etc., which were all very easy to resell after they were purchased.

This year they made more money than the previous year. When the couple was counting in the guest house that night, the amount was almost 40,000 yuan.

Despite the exhaustion, the excitement of being a profiteer was making money very fast.

After one night's rest, the two drove over to buy a motorcycle. On top of buying a motorcycle for Third Brother, they bought a few more barrels of gasoline. Then they changed their route and came to the port to buy seafood.

"Seafood. You came to the right place. Dried abalone, dried sea cucumber, and dried cuttlefish are all available. Do you want fish gelatin? They are all large fish gelatin. The quality is high. There are many kinds of them. Two bosses, how much do you want?" The seafood boss asked very enthusiastically.

Of course, he'll be enthusiastic. They drove a truck.

"Take us over for a look first." Lin Qing He said.

"No problem." The seafood boss nodded and then led Lin Qing He and Zhou Qing Bai around.

After such a lap, Lin Qing He couldn't help but want to partake in the seafood business. She spoke, "Boss, you have a complete set of seafood here. Basically, you have everything."

"It's nothing. Why else would I say you came to the right place? This is the largest seafood processing plant in this area," replied the seafood boss.

"Are you in cooperation with the train side?" Lin Qing He asked.

"What do you mean?" The seafood owner was stumped and felt puzzled.

"We are from the capital. I have a seafood shop there, but they are a limited selection. So I want to try to form a cooperation with you." Lin Qing He explained.

She was thinking of going over to Dalian and have a look. That place was exceptionally rich in seafood.

"You are from the capital. No wonder your accent a bit weird." The seafood owner was surprised. Then again, it wasn't strange. Everything opened up. He had some hesitation: "This is too far away. It’s no problem to deliver it to you, but every time you order, you have to order in large quantities. Otherwise, the travel expenses will not be enough to cover. I also have to send two workers to deliver it there."

"Each order won't be less than 1,000." Lin Qing He stated.

"That's a bit little. It's not cost-effective." The seafood boss shook his head.

"A thousand is little?" Zhou Qing Bai glanced at him.

The seafood boss responded to him in crappy mandarin: "Of course, it's little. These seafood are extremely expensive. I'm giving wholesale prices and delivered to your door. This order requires a minimum 2,000 as the starting point. "

Lin Qinghe asked about the prices of various products. Among them, dried abalone and dried sea cucumbers are indeed costly. The fish gelatin had different qualities and the best was also expensive.

So if one buys the best, the two thousand yuans order wasn't really a lot.

"We are all businessmen. At least trust is necessary. I won’t ask too much. When the goods are delivered to you, the accounts will be settled then. However, if the goods are delivered over and no one can be found. I get deceived and my people made a trip for nothing. Then don't think about coming here to get the goods in the future. Other business will never sell it to you too." The seafood owner stated.
