It's a pity that plastic buckets are not popular yet. Otherwise, it would be more convenient to transport and trade directly in plastic buckets.

After sitting in the shop for two hours, I managed to deal with quite a few inquiries here and there. Using large tanks for packaging is really a drawback. The items are not as valuable as the containers. After asking each one, they just said that they would go back to get the items and pack them again.

.

They are either nearby villagers or vendors wandering around the market.

When there is a one-pound plastic packaging, it will be more convenient to buy a small package, but he will definitely have to buy the corresponding machine, which will be troublesome, so he will sell it like this for now.

However, I still sold one tank, and I agreed that I would bring the empty tank in exchange for a full tank next time.

We do sell a lot of dried shrimps and fish. Most of the ones that come to our door are hawkers, half of them are hawkers, and they all buy fifty kilograms.

He had a few casual chats with the vendors, and they all said that shrimps and dried shrimps were easier to sell, while dried fish was just average, but it was okay.

"It seems like fish sauce is not easy to wholesale."

"If the quantity is large, it will be difficult to sell. If the quantity is small, everyone around will take a bottle, and after a few days, the bottle will be gone." Mother Lin also frowned and said.

“The main reason is that we don’t have anything to package separately, so we have to bring our own bottles. If we ask someone to move all the big tanks, it won’t be enough for one tank.”

"Anyway, let's sell it like this for now. Sell as much as you can."

Ye Yaodong was also holding his chin in the store, thinking and waiting for someone, but he couldn't think of anything for the time being, and now he always uses a big vat.

After Lin's father and A Guang came back, he asked them.

"I've asked the neighbors to help make inquiries. I'll call you back when I have news."

"Okay, let's go first. The store will ask you to show it to you."

Father Lin also handed him the money he had just settled and asked him to take it back with him.

He also told Father Lin about the sales situation just now, and asked the vendors who came to wholesale in the future to do so, replacing empty cylinders with full ones. If they do not sell in the future, they can also come and redeem the deposit for empty cylinders.

Father Lin nodded in agreement.

He didn't have anything to do in the shop. Ye Yaodong took the money and planned to go to the army to deliver two tanks of fish sauce, and then return home.

But before leaving, he moved a tank of fish sauce from the warehouse onto the tractor.

The mysterious operation made the other two people puzzled. What was the purpose of moving it up and down?

"I will go to the army to deliver the goods later. When I pass through the county, I will bring a tank to Director Chen and deliver it to him."

"This tank of yours can feed him for the rest of his life."

"Who hasn't ordered some for relatives and friends? It's not much if you share it. I guess I don't need the dried fish I just got some time ago. I just happened to bring a tank of freshly baked fish sauce."

"You are still better at making connections. You give everything so well without missing anything."

"It's just so so. Try to maintain it. Maybe I'll come to you for anything in the future."

Ye Yaodong swayed the tractor to the army unit and delivered two tanks of fish sauce. Unexpectedly, he received an order of two thousand kilograms of dried toad fish.

I had no choice but to take advantage of the tractor being in the city, go back to the market, and haul another two thousand kilograms to the army.

By the time we set off back, it was already three o'clock and the sun had already hidden behind the thick clouds.

Ye Yaodong also hurriedly hurriedly arrived at the county seat at five o'clock when it was just getting dark, and brought a tank of fish sauce to Director Chen. At the same time, he also received warm hospitality from his wife.

It’s not strange to give gifts to so many people. The gifts are harmless souvenirs, and they don’t ask for anything in return. They just treat them as normal things to do. The key is that the amount is large, and it makes it easy for them to give some to others at will without any worries.

"You've come up with this thing again? You're giving away a big tank, are you planning to sell this fish sauce again?"

"Yes, Director Gao Jian, there were too many small trash fish hauled by the big boat, and it would be a waste to throw them away. I brought them back with me when I came back. Then I asked my mother to make fish sauce and gave some away.

The ones in the city also gave you a jar. If you can’t finish it, you can give some to your relatives and friends. I have a lot of this stuff at home now.”

"You are quite good at tinkering. You can turn waste into treasure in your hands."

"Well, if you don't have money, you can only work hard to see if you can become richer. If you don't work hard and wait, you will always have no money. Money will never fall from the sky."

"It's right for young people to think more about ways to make money, not to mention that it's good to use some of the local products from your seaside villages to turn waste into treasure."

“I don’t know if it’s a treasure, but I’ll just leave it and sell it slowly.”

"How do you sell this fish sauce?" he asked curiously.

"Retail is 15 cents per catty, and wholesale is 10 cents for a full tank."

"Isn't that very cheap? I think your big tank is more expensive than anything else."

"Yeah, anyway, it's the same price as soy sauce and vinegar. You can sell as much as you can. There's nothing you can do about it because the big jar is more expensive than the other stuff. You have to have a container to put it in. Anyway, every household brings their own bottle to make a bottle. After we finish making it,

The vats can still be recycled and shipped. It’s just that the wholesale volume is difficult to sell, the containers are more expensive than liquids, and the large vats are fragile.”

"Actually, it's almost the same. Otherwise, you can only go to some machinery factories and ask if they have packaging machines. Aren't there a lot of plastic packaging nowadays? Those instant noodles are packaged in plastic bags. Ask to see if they can hold these liquids. How about that?

It’s convenient to just wrap it up.”

"I also think so. If it can be packed in bags, it will save time and be convenient for transportation. It will also be convenient for everyone to buy and sell. There is no need to carry bottles and cans to pack."

Director Chen sat up straight and said seriously: "Yes, that's okay, otherwise it would be fragile. If it gets damaged in a collision on the road, the loss would be considerable."

"I'll sell it like this for now. When I go to the province, I'll see if there is a bag sealing machine and whether it's expensive."

Or go back and ask Lin Jishang?

I don’t know if he is at home. He told me to go out and have a look two days ago, but I don’t know when he will be back.

"I'll also keep an eye on it for you. Some of my comrades have also switched jobs to the machinery factory."

Ye Yaodong was overjoyed and agreed happily, "Thank you very much. If it's troublesome, forget it. I'll think about it again. Anyway, it's okay to buy a big tank slowly for a few years."

"It's okay, this is just a casual question."

No matter whether it works or not, Ye Yaodong is still very willing to lead and is willing to take the initiative to help, which shows that he has good feelings for him.

Anyway, he knew that vinegar bags and soy sauce bags would be packaged in the near future, but he didn’t know which year it was. He only remembered that it existed in the 1990s, but it is not popular now, but he didn’t know if this packaging machine would come out.

It’s troublesome to think about it. Making something will bring up a series of corresponding problems.

But he didn’t know anything, so fishing was the easiest thing to do.

It was getting dark outside, and Ye Yaodong didn't dare to stay any longer. He left as soon as he said that. He still had to go to the shipyard.

It's already dark anyway, so I'm not afraid of being a little later.

It was the first time I took Wang Guangliang and A Guang to the leader's house. Both of them were nervous and didn't know where to put their hands and feet. They remained silent the whole time, sitting there in a restrained manner, just listening to his conversation.

After leaving, my hands and feet relaxed and my mind relaxed.

"Brother Dong, you are so awesome. I admire you so much. It's great to get to know you..."

"Shut up! If you're in a hurry, get in the car. Let's go to the shipyard for a walk and then go back."

"Hey, I'll brag to those people when I go back. It turns out that the buildings in the city look like this, and the legendary sofas are so soft and comfortable..."

Wang Guangliang was talking loudly throughout the whole process, and he seemed extremely excited.

Ye Yaodong carefully slowed down and drove to the shipyard.

The shipyard operates a 24-hour shift anyway, so the lights used to be on during this time.

After learning about it, he could get into the water in about half a month, and after letting him go back and watch the situation for a while, he hurried back with satisfaction.

It took about half a month to launch the boat, which was very fast. The boat was delivered just before the year, and I drove the new boat back in glory.

When Ye Yaodong returned, his father was inspecting inside. A large number of toad fish were piled in the corner of the workshop, and there were many stools in the surrounding open space. The aunts must have just returned from their work.

As soon as his tractor arrived at the entrance of the workshop, his father had already trotted over from the workshop and was running beside his tractor.

He waited until he parked the tractor before he sputtered.

"Why don't you just deliver something? Why is it so late? It's dark, it's almost Chinese New Year, and it's not peaceful outside. It's better not to walk at night, and don't stay outside at night. If you can come back early, you have to come back early.

.”

"It takes time to do things. You can do it at any time you want. I've tried my best to get there as early as possible."

"Then if you knew it was so labor-intensive and time-consuming, why didn't you leave earlier? In the morning? The sun was already out and we didn't leave until seven o'clock. If you had set out and got home at five o'clock, it would probably still be daylight."

"Oh, don't be verbose, how can you get stuck so well?"

"Why are you stuck on time? People would rather be early than late. You have to be stuck just right."

Ye Yaodong glanced at his father, "What do you know?"

After he finished speaking, he didn't care about his father. After turning off the tractor, he took out the crank handle placed under the seat, as well as the gun, preparing to take it back later.

In the middle of winter, when the bed is so warm, who would be willing to get up at four or five o'clock? He didn't know that he would be delayed for so long today?

If it hadn't taken that long, wouldn't he have crawled out of bed early for nothing?

Aguang helped and said, "Dad, I spent a little more time looking for a house, and then Dongzi made two more trips to deliver goods to the army."

Father Ye doesn't care about this at all, he cares more about the big ship.

"Didn't you say that when you came back today, you stopped by the shipyard to see how the ship was doing? Did you go? It's so late, did you come back directly?"

"I'm going to let my mother see if I can test the water and come back in half a month."

"Really? So soon? Did you really get married before the year?" Father Ye rubbed his hands back and forth happily, "I will tell your mother now and let her check the date early tomorrow."
