Chapter 1540 Want to buy a mobile phone
They were busy until the middle of the month, when the fishing boats on the sea had to return home one after another to rest because of the thunder and lightning in early spring.
The Yuanyang had been at sea for almost a month, and the Dongsheng did come back for a rest during that time.
Taking advantage of the fact that all the fishing boats have returned this time, all the personnel are present and in the camp.
Ye Yaodong also discussed with his father and decided to make some personnel adjustments and promote those who should be promoted.
Those with more experience were transferred to the distant-water fishing vessels to work together with the veterans who were originally there.
After half a month of adjustment and learning, these veterans have become familiar with the daily work of fishing at sea.
He made another round of adjustments in preparation for going to the deep sea later.
After this adjustment, we will give them some time to get used to each other. We don’t plan to make adjustments easily in the future.
He also asked his father not to go out to sea, and the fishing boat was handed over to the captain to steer the boat, while the seafood collection boat continued to go out to sea every day to collect a batch of goods.
It is not necessary to collect fish from every boat. As long as the boat's cabin is almost full, you can call for the fish collection boat to collect the fish.
He had to go to the Magic City, and the delivery job had to be left to his father. Now Chen Baoxing was already a capable man, and with Chen Baoxing helping his father, he could go with peace of mind.
It was Ye's father who had a bitter face and looked reluctant.
"Why are you doing this as if you were being tortured? Wouldn't you be happy to be sent to collect money?"
“It’s not my money that was collected.”
"That's better than being at sea, right?"
"It's hard to say. You don't need to use your brain at sea, and you don't need to deal with people. It's annoying to deal with people when I deliver goods to you, and I have to smile. I can't even speak Mandarin clearly, so I might as well stay at sea."
"is that really so difficult?"
"What do you think? I can't even speak Mandarin well, and I still have to greet people. It's so difficult for me. I would rather face a pile of dead fish than those bosses."
"That's an exaggeration. I'll be back soon. A week at most."
"I see. That means it will take half a month."
Ye Yaodong's face was full of confusion. "Why don't you believe me? I said one week, so it's one week."
"You never come back on time. You keep pushing it back. As long as you leave this door, you have all kinds of excuses."
"That's because I haven't finished my work. Don't worry, this trip will be quick. I haven't been here for so long, I have to go and see how the fishing boats are being built over there. There are several boats, and more than 100 million yuan is invested there, so I have to pay more attention to them. Then the processing plant has to expand its scale, and I have to order more machines. I also have to check on the land I bought. I saw a policy was issued in the newspaper, so I have to go and see what's going on."
Father Ye opened his eyes wide in surprise, "What policy was announced?"
"Didn't I tell you about the large-scale development of Pudong last year? I heard from my godfather that it seems to have been implemented and the news has even come out."
"Fuck, are they really going to develop it? They have to requisition land? Do they have to pay for the land? How much money?"
"I don't know. I haven't been there yet, so how would I know? We sent two people over there a while ago to look at the land and get some information. They said it was from east to south and from west to north. The land has just been enclosed, and there are no regulations on expropriation and compensation, but it will definitely be developed."
Father Ye slapped his thigh fiercely, "Then we must not let the people lose money by expropriating the land, right? No one will agree to lose money. Land and houses are the lifeblood of life! Then won't you make money from the land you bought?"
"It's not our turn to develop yet. Ours is somewhere in the middle. It won't be that fast. It'll take a few years, right?"
"Oh, if I had known earlier, I would have bought a house closer to the river. The houses closer to the river must have been developed earlier. After all, the river directly connects to Puxi. The two places are separated by the river."
"There are advantages to starting late. What we should worry about is not this, but whether someone will be unwilling to accept it and whether there will be disputes over the land we bought. But it's not time for that yet."
It has not been truly developed yet, and no one is sure to what extent it will be developed or to which location in Pudong it will be developed.
Now they can only wait and see, hoping in their hearts that the development will be developed quickly and they can directly exchange their shabby house in Pudong for a big house in Puxi.
"Dispute? Ah, what should we do?" Father Ye was a little scared. "We outsiders can't beat the locals."
"What are you afraid of? We are in a society ruled by law now and we all have to follow reason and the law. This is not something you should worry about, and it's not something we should be concerned about right now. Just help me deliver the goods for a few days. Anyway, you have Baoxing as your assistant. If there is anything, he will arrange for it. You just take the money."
"Okay, then remember to come back early."
"Well, I'll buy the boat ticket later and leave tomorrow."
"You should bring two more people. It's not safe to be alone. You are no longer the same as before. You are so valuable and many people know you now."
"Yes, I made some personnel adjustments today and arranged two veterans with better skills to follow me."
Anyway, we are all working for him, so we have to listen to him when we come here. It's enough for us to know how to fish. Now he wants to go out to do something, so we have to follow him out first.
Ye Huimei waited for more than half a month, and finally he said he wanted to go to Shanghai, so she quickly asked him to buy another boat ticket.
"If you don't go, I'm thinking about going with Guang and leaving the child with Dad first."
"It's not that important. How much money can I make? I don't even want my child anymore."
"You can't imagine how eager I am to make money now."
"Does A-Guang need you to eat or drink? Haven't I given you all the money I earned?"
"It's different after all. Of course I'm happier if I can make money myself."
"Okay, stop talking nonsense, pack up and leave early tomorrow morning. I won't be able to accompany you when you get there, so I'll point two people to you then."
"Well, I know you're busy with your own things. Anyway, just let Baoguo or whoever follows me."
Ye Yaodong didn't say much to her. Just inform her of the time. He also had to go back to pack his luggage and put some more money in it.
He just happened to have made hundreds of thousands of dollars in the past month, but because he now has a large volume, several processing factories with which he has a good relationship have started to collect debts owed to him.
This is unavoidable, because the current shipment volume is large, and some large factories consume a lot of goods, so the settlement will certainly not be so straightforward. They always have to owe money to others and settle it slowly.
Unless he doesn't want to supply the goods, the key is that he has to supply the goods. The quantity is too large, and small factories can't consume much. As long as big factories can consume it, they can owe them the goods and take them slowly. It's better than letting them rot in their hands.
So even though he has several more ocean-going ships this year, the actual money he received is only a little more than last year. Some of it is owed to him by several factories, which demand a little every month.
He also urgently wanted to produce and sell his own products so that he would not be restricted by others and would not have to worry about having too many goods.
He took out the money he had just earned this month and invested it directly in the processing plant, buying more machines to expand the scale and increase the variety of products.
Anyway, the money in Aqing's hands is his savings. He can do whatever he wants with the money in his hands. He won't lose much.
Don't be fooled by his fierce efforts and huge investments. In fact, he only invests part or half of his earnings. There is a bottom line to guarantee that he will not lose everything.
Moreover, most of the items he bought were fixed assets or production tools, which could guarantee the bottom line. Even if he made a loss, he still had the ships.
The processing plant is not very valuable, but the land of the processing plant is valuable, the machines are valuable, and the source of the goods is all on their own ships anyway, so there is a bottom line guarantee.
He takes big steps, but each step he takes is steady and reliable.
Before leaving the next day, he specifically told Chen Baoxing and two factory leaders that he would be in Shanghai for a week and asked them to discuss and deal with matters in the next few days.
Anyway, his father is there, and he calls home every day, so we can contact him by phone if there is anything.
By the way, he was also thinking about whether there were any mobile phones he could buy during his trip to Shanghai. On the way, he had seen people holding one in their hands to show off.
The only difference is that today’s mobile phones are as big as bricks, heavy, have poor signal, and most importantly, are hard to buy.
Page machines were easy to buy. He had seen other bosses playing with them and had asked about the price of one. It was as high as 2000 yuan, equivalent to several months' salary for an ordinary person, and was considered a luxury item.
But for businessmen in the 90s, 2000 yuan is now a small amount, and they are willing to buy one to show off. This thing is now a symbol of status like a mobile phone.
However, current BB machines only support numbers and do not support Chinese character input.
Users need to consult the coding manual to understand the meaning of the information, such as "88" means "goodbye".
In addition, communication also requires dialing a paging station through a public telephone or landline, and the operator will send the message to the pager.
After receiving the message, the other party needs to find a phone number and call back to complete the communication process.
It may seem novel and advanced to others, but too backward to him. He has no desire to buy it. However, a mobile phone is fine for him.
It is a little more expensive, but it is much more convenient as it allows for phone calls, which is something a pager cannot compare to.
He now has a large volume of business, many stalls, and is running around everywhere. Sometimes, he can't be found when something happens.
It’s different with a mobile phone. I can always find it when something happens. Even if the signal is not very good, I can still make calls and have conversations.
After becoming rich, he clearly felt that society was different, and he could also substantially experience the progress of society.
For example, in his previous life, how could he know when mobile phones and pagers came into being? Anyway, by the time he found out, they were already everywhere.
It’s different now, he meets more wealthy people now, and he immediately notices that some of them are already showing off with it.
Now that he has plenty of money, he has to show off if he can. If he didn't get to show off in his previous life, he has to show off in this life at least.
What's more, it is also a symbol of status. Holding a mobile phone in your hand, everyone knows that you are a big boss. It will be much easier to talk about business and brag.
On the way to the boat, Ye Yaodong was thinking about what he was going to do on this trip, and he was thinking in silence the whole time.
Ye Huimei watched him thinking about something but didn't dare to disturb him. She didn't ask him until he got off the boat, "Third brother, what were you thinking about the whole way? You were so absorbed in it."
"Thinking about how to spend the money for this trip."
"Ah? What do you want to buy?"
"Buy something big." Ye Yaodong looked around the dock and said, "It's still early. The sun hasn't set yet. Let's go to Pudong to find Chen Baoguo and his friends first, and then go to the villa."
As I said, it’s inconvenient without a phone, so I can only rely on walking to find people.
After finding the person, they went towards the villa while talking.
Along the way, the two of them reported to Ye Yaodong what had happened in Pudong during this period. They had already talked about it once on the phone, but they had to talk about it again from the beginning when they met, and also talk about recent events.
Ye Huimei walked to the side and listened to the two people talking and reporting along the way beside him. Her third brother just nodded and continued to ask questions. There were two bodyguards following behind him.
Her eyes sparkled as she watched.
Normally, I didn’t think her third brother was so awesome and he didn’t have any sense of being a big boss. But now, I really think her third brother is so handsome and looks like a big boss, really like one.
so amazing.
There was someone walking and reporting next to her, with bodyguards following behind her, and she felt like she was rising with the tide.
When they arrived at the villa, she quietly went over to Ye Yaodong and told him with a smile how she had felt just now.
"Brother, you finally look like a boss! You're so handsome and charming!"
Ye Yaodong turned around, looked at her with a smile, and tapped her forehead.
"I am your brother, and I am already a big boss! Isn't it normal to be charming? I have been handsome since I was a child, and I am still a handsome guy now. People who don't know me must think that I am only in my 20s. I just wear more clothes for work. You don't have this feeling."
Ye Huimei nodded as she listened, "Yes, yes, you have been handsome since you were young. That's why you are wearing a very neat suit today. Third brother, I saw someone wearing a suit on the street. Why don't you order one too? You will definitely look more handsome."
"No, what if I look like an insurance salesman?"
"What kind of person sells insurance?"
"Hurry up and clean the room. Make me a bed. I'm so tired."
"Okay, got it."
Ye Huimei happily ran upstairs to choose a room, and asked him which one he wanted to stay in while running.
Ye Yaodong told her it was on the third floor, facing the sun, and then called Chen Baoguo and the others to come over and talk.
There are four people here. He plans to assign two of them to Ye Huimei tomorrow, and keep one bodyguard for himself, and only one will be Chen Baoguo.
Explain it to them now.
After Ye Huimei made the bed, she was surprised to hear that she was assigned a bodyguard.
"Why give me a bodyguard? I just need someone to help me carry my things."
"You have to be careful when you go out as a woman. I have two people, and the other two will be with you."
"That's fine. I should be able to finish it in one day anyway. I'll go wherever you go with me. I'll follow you and see what it's like."
"can."
"Do you want to go and see your million-dollar ship, too? I want to go and see what it looks like."
"Okay, as long as you don't mind being tired or wearing your feet out."
"No, I won't get tired even if I walk 10 kilometers."
I have my period. I wanted to take a leave, but now I think I should update and write less.
