Fisherwoman: After my divorce, I became rich by fishing at sea
Chapter 1122: Twice the Price
"Our ship was caught in a storm and we lost all the fresh water and diesel on board. There wasn't much left...
We have no other choice. We finally ran into you. I wonder if you have any extra on your ship? Can you share... Can you sell me some?"
When Chen Jiaqiang finished speaking, his face was full of pleading. It was not his first time to go out to sea, but it was his first time to go out with this ship to collect goods.
This ship goes farther and earns more money, but he never expected that such a rich boss is not so reliable. Last night's strong winds and heavy rains washed away the water tanks filled with fresh water. As the boss, Xu Zhiwei is not only not frugal, but even takes the lead in taking a bath to waste water.
No one discovered this until there was no fresh water for cooking in the morning.
If there is no food, you can fish it out of the sea, but if there is no fresh water, you will die of thirst.
It was still several days' voyage before returning to the port city. He watched for a whole morning before he spotted the Chengfengpolang operating on the sea, so he hurriedly signaled for help. According to his habit of dealing with mainlanders, the kind-hearted mainlanders would definitely stop to help.
But just when he put up the flag, Xu Zhiwei, the unreliable boss, not only did not greet him properly, but instead offended the life-saving straw in front of him.
Chen Jiaqiang is a native of Hong Kong. His family is average and he makes a living by working on a ship.
To be honest, he couldn't understand why so many people in Hong Kong looked down on mainlanders when they were all Chinese from the same origin.
What northern aunts and southern aunts? Those comrades were right to curse just now. They are disrespectful to people. They are really a bunch of people who spew shit!
Although he complained a lot, Chen Jiaqiang still didn't dare to actually curse Xu Zhiwei.
After all, your job is still in someone else's hands.
Fu Wan knew what Chen Jiaqiang meant, but she still shook her head and refused without mercy.
"No, mainlanders are never kind.
We've given you all the water and oil, so what are we and the boat going to drink?"
He even called me a northern girl, so how could I give him water for free?
When Chen Jiaqiang heard this, he suddenly felt a little desperate.
The boat stopped when he waved the flag, which meant that people were planning to help them.
It is absolutely impossible for such a large ship to be out of water and diesel. The refusal now must have been because Xu Zhiwei was angry.
"Oh, punk! You've got the wrong guy! They say these foreigners won't help you. If you have so little time, you might as well just turn around!"
"At worst, everyone's drinking seawater today!"
Xu Zhiwei snorted coldly, looking indifferent.
At this moment, Jack and his two companions, who were sleeping in the rest cabin, walked onto the deck. Seeing the big guys gathered at the side of the boat, Jack instinctively became alert.
"Wan, what happened? Do you need help?"
As soon as he spoke those stiff Chinese words, people on both sides looked in his direction.
"It's okay, I just met some idiots. No need for help, just go and have fun!"
Robert was puzzled and turned to Jack and asked, "What does idiot mean?"
"Oh, I know what you mean, idiot."
Jack answered without thinking. Xu Zhiwei didn't bother to listen carefully to what they were saying. His eyes, which were originally disdainful, widened.
Isn’t this a mainland fishing boat? Why are there foreigners here?
Judging from their accents, these foreigners are not from the UK, but from the United States.
Looking at the casual way Fu Wan was talking to Jack, Xu Zhiwei pondered for a moment, and suddenly, strangely, accepted the rudeness of Fu Wan and her group towards them.
Considering how casual they are towards foreigners from the United States, it seems they really don't care about people from Hong Kong.
Although Xu Zhiwei is arrogant and looks down on mainlanders, he is a Hong Kong businessman after all. He is not stupid and is even very shrewd.
He immediately realized that the boat in front of him was not as simple as he had imagined. Those unfashionable mainlanders, especially the one he called a "Northern girl", were definitely not ordinary mainland fishermen.
It doesn’t matter if you offend a girl from mainland China, but if you offend a beautiful Chinese, you never know whether it will affect your family business.
After all, these days, beautiful Chinese people who can come to the mainland to play must be either rich or noble.
Thinking of this, Xu Zhiwei quickly softened his tone.
"That Bei..." He was about to speak, but when he met Fu Wan's cold eyes, he immediately changed his words.
"That comrade," he shouted, imitating Chen Jiaqiang's manner, "I shouted the wrong thing just now. It's all because of those idiots in Hong Kong. I've gotten used to shouting that.
I apologize to you, my friends from Hong Kong and mainland China. We don't want you for nothing. We have money, and we'll pay for it!"
Ye Lin was about to curse who wanted his money, but unexpectedly Fu Ming covered his mouth with his hand.
Fu Wan saw his actions and couldn't help but smile secretly.
She and Fu Mingzhen are siblings, and they have the same plan.
Anyone who has the opportunity to make money is a fool, especially someone like Xu Zhiwei, who should be cheated out of it.
Besides, it was his business if he said the wrong thing and looked down on others. Chen Jiaqiang and others on the boat didn’t provoke Fu Wan.
The Hitchhiker is returning to port tonight, and there is indeed a lot of water and oil left.
"How do you want to buy it?"
Robert felt that Fu Wan's tone was somewhat familiar.
He tried to recall for a few seconds, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind.
Oh my God, Fu Wan's calculating look now is exactly the same as when she made the bet with them at sea!
He looked at Xu Zhiwei with sympathy. This man would definitely accept a severe blow like him, and then be full of admiration for Fu Wan.
But it doesn’t matter. It’s not shameful to admire Wan. At least he won’t be a fool begging on the sea anymore.
Xu Zhiwei hesitated for two seconds, "I'll pay! Double the price, double the price for both water and diesel!"
Once on land, water cannot be compared with diesel. Giving double the market price is what Xu Zhiwei considers to be his greatest sincerity.
Upon hearing this, Fu Ming thought to himself that this price was indeed not low. Not only that, in fact, if Xu Zhiwei asked for more, they could earn back the diesel and labor costs for this trip.
However, Fu Wan still shook her head.
"No, I don't agree."
"Why!" Xu Zhiwei's smile froze, and his eyes showed a hint of warning.
"Mainland girl, people shouldn't be too greedy. You mainlanders should understand this."
Fu Wan was not afraid at all, she raised her eyebrows and said, "Don't worry, the currencies of the mainland and Hong Kong are not unified. You said double, how do I know whether it is calculated according to the mainland or Hong Kong price?
Also, what currency are you going to give me? If you give me Hong Kong dollars, it will be just waste paper to me and I won’t be able to use it at all.”
After Fu Wan finished speaking, Xu Zhiwei's expression changed and a hint of guilt flashed in his eyes.
Damn, this mainland girl is really not simple. She has thought of all these things.
The consumption in Hong Kong is much higher than that in the mainland. The market price he mentioned must be referring to the market price in the mainland.
