Fisherwoman: After my divorce, I became rich by fishing at sea

The boat at Fu's house is only eight meters long. Since his daughter said she wanted to buy a big boat, it must be bigger than the iron boat at home.

"If we're talking about size, I have quite a few fishing boats of this size."

Li Youchuan smiled helplessly. "Let me ask you this: do you want a wooden boat, an iron boat, or a steel boat? Are your offshore operations primarily trawling, gillnetting, or other distant-water fishing vessels that require extended periods of time at sea?"

When Fu Wan heard this, she couldn't help but look at this small shipyard in the county town with a different eye.

There are so many options for booking a boat in this place.

Moreover, although Li Youchuan was a marketing director, he was very serious in entertaining them, perhaps for Sun Youcai's sake or for some other reason.

However, she was also a little curious.

"Comrade Li, can you still operate an ocean-going fishing vessel?"

You should know that the requirements for ocean-going fishing vessels are extremely high. Because they need to operate on the sea for a long time, ocean-going fishing vessels are not only several times larger than ordinary fishing boats, but their performance is also incomparable to ordinary fishing boats.

That is a fishing boat that can sail on the sea for ten days or half a month.

Li Youchuan was just bragging, but he didn't expect that the little girl Fu Wan would ask about ocean fishing boats right away.

He laughed and said, "It can be done, but the construction period will be slower."

The manufacturing technology of this ocean-going fishing vessel has to be obtained from the provincial shipyard, but if Fu Wan and the others place an order, he can still go to the provincial shipyard.

Money makes the world go round, but he can't make the money go round.

However, it was also very troublesome to order an ocean-going fishing vessel at this time. Li Youchuan advised frankly: "Young comrades, you are not outsiders. I will be frank. If you only want simple operations at sea, there is no need to buy an ocean-going fishing vessel for the time being.

This ocean-going fishing boat is different from ordinary fishing boats. If you buy one, you still have to learn how to operate it and take a crew certificate, which is quite troublesome.

Boss Fu nodded in agreement. "Awan, this still needs to be verified. Let's not order a ship with such high requirements yet!"

They are in urgent need of it now. It sounds like this ocean-going fishing vessel will take at least one or two years to produce.

But when he is not in a hurry in the future, he can buy one and try it out. He also wants to experience the feeling of driving a big boat.

"Comrade Li, can you help me see which fishing boats are around 16 meters long?"

"We have 30-meter fishing boats with engines ranging from 80 to horsepower. Are you going out to sea to trawler?"

Fu Wan nodded. "Yes, trawling and longlining are essential."

"Then equip it with an engine of about 50 horsepower, which should be enough for trawling nets and other things."

Li Youchuan wrote down their requirements in his notebook. "As for materials, we currently have wood, iron, and steel."

There is no doubt that the prices also follow the order mentioned by Li Youchuan.

But steel fishing boats are definitely much better than wooden and iron ones.

"Let's get steel!"

Li Youchuan paused, having not expected them to choose expensive steel. He kindly reminded them, "Steel boats are made of the most popular fiberglass reinforced plastic. It has excellent performance, but it's also quite a bit more expensive. Do you want to discuss this further?"

These words were said to Fu Wan. He could also see that Boss Fu and his men all listened to Fu Wan.

Fu Wan shook her head. "No need, Comrade Li, just calculate the price based on the steel version."

Li Youchuan flipped the brochure to the page about steel boats and showed them, "This steel material is newly introduced here. Although the price is high, it is indeed very good."

"We sold a fiberglass boat a while ago, but I heard it was sold very quickly. Look, this is a photo of the steel boat."

Fu Wan looked where he pointed, and unexpectedly saw a ship that looked extremely familiar.

Isn't this the ship Xue Qing was on before? Ever since Xue Qing had an accident at sea and the islander died, the ship had indeed been taken away by someone at some point.

It turned out that it was sold.

Fu Wan was thinking to herself that when she painted this boat later, she had to make sure it didn't have the same color as Xue Qing's boat, as that man was really unlucky.

"We can provide you with a trawling roller and install it before the ship is delivered. Are you planning to install the longline equipment on board?"

Fu Wan shook her head. "No, longline fishing is secondary when we go out to sea. Trawling is the most important thing. We can just let go when we're longlining."

If she were to put a longline fishing equipment in the middle of the boat, she would think it would take up too much space.

"Okay, I understand your basic requirements. Please sit here for a while. I'll ask the workshop director to calculate the approximate cost."

If it was just an iron or wooden ship, Li Youchuan wouldn't have to discuss it with the workshop director, but for this steel ship, he had to do some careful calculations.

After all, the price of a ship, in addition to the manufacturing cost, the material cost is also a big part. The price of each batch of fiberglass is different, so they still have to calculate carefully.

After waiting for about ten minutes, Li Youchuan reappeared in front of everyone with the notebook in his hand.

"I've asked about this ship, and I'm giving you a discounted price of one hundred and twenty-eight thousand."

As soon as he said this, Fu Ming and Fu Liang secretly took a breath of cold air.

This is so expensive!

Fu Wan didn't think so. This price was much better than the hundreds of thousands she had expected.

"How long will it take for us to get this ship?"

Li Youchuan smiled and replied, "If you sign the contract and pay the deposit, we will start production immediately. It will take about three months, and we will have someone send the boat to your dock."

It will take three months, that is, before January, so it won’t cause any delay.

What surprised Fu Wan was that there was a delivery service, which saved her the trouble of figuring out how to get the boat back.

However, the other party had already mentioned the price, so Fu Wan had to lower it a little.

"Comrade Li, can this boat be cheaper? We're just ordinary fishermen. We don't know if we can earn 10,000 or 20,000 yuan a year. Our boat at home had problems, so we had to scrape together some money to buy a new one."

Li Youchuan originally thought that since these people mentioned steel ships, their families must have some wealth, but he didn't expect Fu Wan to act so pitiful at this time.

Sun Youcai, who was drinking tea nearby, quickly joined in.

"Yes, cousin, these are all my friends. You have to make it cheaper. Fishermen earn their money through hard work!"

Although Fu Wan made hundreds of thousands of dollars when she sold golden bird's nest to him, Sun Youcai still had business ethics, but he had forgotten about it at this moment.

"Then the minimum is 125,000."

One hundred and twenty-five thousand, that's three thousand yuan cheaper!

Fu Wan was happy in her heart, but it didn't show on her face.

"Thank you very much, Comrade Li."

Li Youchuan waved his hand and said that they could make a profit of 125,000 yuan, it was just a matter of how much.

"Sign the contract now? You have to pay the deposit first."

Fu Wan then remembered that although the contract could be signed, she had not yet gone to collect the money!

"Excuse me, Comrade Li. How about we sign the contract first? I'll have my brothers get the money and send it over later?"

"We have to hurry. After today, the price won't be the same tomorrow. Steel prices are rising every day lately, and there's nothing we can do."

"It's okay, then we can sign the contract first."
