Chapter 65: Book a ship, 800,000

Chapter 65 Book a ship, 800,000

Fishing big yellow croaker in two days?

Then you must be free!

Chu Mingcheng did not expect that He Zheng would still invite him to go fishing after he refused.

But if he catches more, he earns more, so it is normal to invite him over.

Then he received He Zheng's quotation for large yellow croakers, one hundred yuan per catty for two or three, one hundred and fifty one catty for four or five taels, two hundred and six for six or seven taels, and four hundred for eight to nine taels.

One thousand for one catty, one thousand eight for two catties, and two thousand five for more than three catties.

If you catch the farmed products that escaped from the cage, you will buy them at 31 catties.

Normal farmed large yellow croakers are only 20 to 31 catties. He can collect 30 catties because the escaped ones have wandered around for a while, and the price can be sold at a higher price.

Of course, wild large yellow croakers are basically not that big now, just look at the price of more than one catty, and don’t need to think about it.

Chu Mingcheng knew more or less the market price of large yellow croakers. He Zheng's price this time was a bit low. The average price for fish under a catty was 50 yuan, which was much higher than that of hairtail fish.

However, it is impossible to catch large yellow croaker with the same efficient connecting rod as hairtail, and he does not need to rent a boat, so it is not bad if it is calculated this way.

Seeing that Chu Mingcheng agreed, the smile on He Zheng's face increased a bit, and he began to count his catches in the second half of the night.

Three-finger-wide one weighs sixty-seven catties, a total of 3051 yuan.

Four fingers wide but less than a catty, there are 21 catties, a total of 945 yuan.

This time there were more than one catty, twenty-six catties, a total of 2080 yuan.

There are five more than two catties, this is an extra 20 yuan, one hundred yuan per catty, a total of 1120 yuan.

Excluding the hairtail he wanted to bring back, he earned 7,196 yuan in the second half of the night, plus 5,140 yuan in the first half of the night, making a total of more than 12,300 yuan for this trip to Chuming City.

Earning more than 10,000 yuan in one night, this kind of good thing will be rushed by anyone, and it is worthwhile to work hard all night.

As for the price of hairtail is so high, can He Zheng sell it?

The hairtail caught is referred to as fishing belt, and it is not sold to ordinary families. It is prepared for those who have good financial conditions and are greedy.

Maybe He Zheng has a channel to package and sell directly to the hotel.

Back to the pier, Yao Xin was still sleeping and did not come out.

Chu Mingcheng had no choice but to send her a text message, and then rejected He Zheng's noon treat.

He has to go back to catch up on sleep, and in the afternoon, he will go to book a boat for a medical examination in preparation for the driver's license test.

Zhao Xia will also come to pick up sea worms in the evening, so I don’t have so much time.

But before leaving, Chu Mingcheng asked He Zheng about the configuration and price of his ship, so as not to be fooled when booking the ship.

Back home, Chu Mingcheng had a good night's sleep after eating breakfast.

Go to sleep at 8:00 and wake up at 11:00, the King of Hades will praise me for my good health!

Chu Mingcheng fed Xiao Mi cat food, and after thinking about it, he bought an automatic timing feeding machine online, and brought drinking water, so as not to mess up his rest time and delay Xiaomi's meal.

Then he returned to the town with the hairtail and gave it to An Xiuwen.

"Yo, son, did you go fishing for hairtail last night?"

An Xiuwen likes to eat fish, especially pomfret, hairtail and small yellow flowers. She likes the hairtail brought by Chu Mingcheng with bright skin.

"Well, I went fishing for hairtail on a friend's boat last night. I knew you liked it, so I kept some and sold the rest."

"Then did you keep it for yourself?"

"Yes, save some and fry up to eat later."

Chu Mingcheng didn’t stay at home too long, so after lunch, he went to Huangzhen Shipyard to watch the ship.

He came directly to the large shipyard. The salesman inside was surprised to see him, and immediately overjoyed.

The first visit may be to see, but the second visit has a high chance of buying, so the reception this time is more enthusiastic than before.

Since Chu Mingcheng has decided to buy it, he will not hesitate any longer.

"I learned before that your main factory is in Xiamen City, right! I'm going to develop there in a while, so I want to order a boat to sink there."

The salesperson's expression froze for a moment, and then he smiled again: "Of course it's no problem, then Mr. Chu, let's see what kind of configuration you need."

"OK" Chu Mingcheng nodded, and followed the salesman to the office to discuss configuration and price.

He learned from He Zhengna that his ship had only been bought for a year, with a length of 11.88 meters, a width of 3.24 meters, a displacement of 6.8 tons, and a draft of 0.48 meters.

Fuel tank capacity is 800 liters, fresh water capacity is 150 liters.

There are radar, GPS, fish finder, etc. in the cockpit, and the three certificates of the shipyard are complete, and it cost 800,000 to get it.

Chu Mingcheng thinks that He Zheng's is very good, but in fact there are two types of propellers: gasoline and diesel.

Gasoline is fast, and the theoretical maximum speed can reach 45 knots, while diesel is slow, with a maximum speed of only 30 knots.

But the economy of the diesel engine is better, and the fuel consumption is lower.

The fuel consumption of a 200 horsepower diesel outboard engine is about 40 liters per hour, and the fuel consumption of two outboards is 80 liters. This is the case of economical speed, and the fuel consumption will increase at the highest speed.

The cost of gas for two hours of driving is almost 1500 yuan, and a trip to the sea costs at least 2000 oceans.

But it is also much cheaper than gasoline outboards, which consume more fuel.

After understanding Chu Mingcheng's request, the salesman asked him to wait a while, and then went out to contact the main factory for a price quote.

After about twenty minutes, the salesman came back and brought him good news.

"Mr. Chu, it's like this. When you book a ship with us, you usually have to wait two or three months until the ship falls into the water. This is because our factory has already built the hull of the ship, and we only need to decorate and add equipment."

"However, our main factory currently has a newly renovated ship. It was originally ordered by someone else, and the deposit was paid. But now the customer over there has some financial problems at home, so the ship has been put on hold."

"The configuration of this ship is similar to what you requested, but it is gasoline with dual external engines, can you accept it?"

Chu Mingcheng was quite surprised to hear that there was a ready-made ship. It would be best if he didn’t need to wait, but he definitely didn’t want a gasoline engine.

"I just want diesel."

"Mr. Chu, in fact, gasoline also has the benefits of gasoline, for example."

"I haven't taken the test for a ship's driver's license yet. It will take at least a month. It will take two to three months to redecorate a ship. I'm not in a hurry."

Hearing what Chu Mingcheng said, the salesman was dumbfounded, and then smiled again: "Okay, Mr. Chu, you should pay a deposit first, and I will communicate with the other side to replace the external unit."

It is not troublesome to change the external engine, so the salesman will not persuade Chu Mingcheng if he insists on diesel.

When paying the deposit, he looked at the contract, which also stated that the ship in Xiamen City needed to replace the outboard motor. He could go to Xiamen City to pay the full amount within two months, and the price was also 800,000.

After disembarking the ship, Chu Mingcheng went to the hospital to have an experience. After the medical examination report came out, he could go to the Maritime Safety Administration to apply for a driver's license.

It will take more than a month, and he will leave for Xiamen City after the driver's license is issued.

In this month, he can make some more money, and then he can borrow less from his parents.

Thanks Leng Jun for the reward
