Soon, Li Xuan arrived at Chen Laosi's place in Boss Tang's van.

Because it is not the fishing season, there are very few people here at the dock.

Tang Laosi was a thin, middle-aged man with a goatee. When he saw a van coming, he limped out of the dock to greet it.

"Boss Chen, long time no see." Boss Tang greeted him with a smile.

"Boss Tang, Boss Li, rare guest, rare guest, who is this little brother?" Chen Laosi, Li's father, and Boss Tang are all acquaintances, but this is the first time they meet Li Xuan.

Father Li smiled and said, "My son, Li Xuan."

"You are such a big guy." Chen Laosi glanced at Li Xuan in surprise, and then smiled and said: "Come on, don't stand outside, please come inside."

Everyone followed Chen Laosi into the dock. Father Li saw him limping and couldn't help but ask: "Chen Laosi, I saw you two days ago and you were fine. What's wrong with your legs?"

"Hey, don't mention it. I'm gouty and greedy. I drank half a box of beer last night. That's it for today. But it's okay. I can leave tomorrow." Chen Laosi walked to the sofa with difficulty and sat down, then clicked

He turned on a switch on the coffee table and started to boil water, "Are you here today?"

"Rent a boat." Father Li said directly.

"Still the old rules?" Chen Laosi asked.

Father Li thought for a while and said, "Let's take a look at the parameters first."

"Okay." Chen Laosi bent down, took out three pieces of paper from under the coffee table and said, "Look at the price list for yourselves."

Li Xuan took one of the pictures and looked at it carefully.

Here at Chen Laosi, there are three types of boats available for rent.

One is a wooden boat that is 2.5 meters long, 1 meter wide, and does not have an engine. The rental fee is 200 yuan a week.

The second type is a boat similar to the one driven by Chen Bin. It is 3.7 meters long and 2 meters wide. It is an engine fishing boat. The rent is 800 yuan a week.

The last type is an eight-meter-seven-meter-long steamer with two small cold storages and a live water storage on board. The rent is 2,800 per week.

"We are all old acquaintances. Now is the off-season, so the rent is 20% off. Come and have tea." Chen Laosi said with a smile.

"Rent a fishing boat with an engine. I'll rent it for a day." Father Li said.

"Me too." Boss Tang said.

Chen Laosi smiled and shook his head, "Then what parameters do you look at? The old rule is, one hundred and one a day."

Li's father readily paid 160 yuan to Chen Laosi, "I don't need to watch it, but my son is renting for the first time, so he wants to watch it."

"Oh?" Chen Laosi looked at Li Xuan doubtfully, "You three want to rent a boat each? This is not the fishing season. Could it be that you have found a school of fish?"

Li Xuan smiled and asked: "Boss Chen, how much does it cost to rent a fishing boat with this engine for a month?"

Father Li was surprised and said: "Xiaoxuan, do you want to rent for a month?"

Li Xuan nodded. He would often go to sea in the future. It was not a problem for the old manager to borrow a boat, so he might as well rent one.

Father Li thought for a while and said: "This kind of boat is not expensive and renting it is not worthwhile. If you are going to use the boat for a long time, buy a second-hand one from Boss Chen."

Li Xuan shook his head, he didn't want to buy this kind of boat.

"Let's rent one and use it first. If we want to buy one, wait a month." Li Xuan said.

Father Li nodded, turned to look at Chen Laosi and said: "Chen Laosi, you heard me, we are going to buy a boat in a month, and we are old customers again. How much discount can you give for renting it for such a long time at a time?"

Chen Laosi's face suddenly fell, "Actually, I would rather rent a boat than sell a boat. If your son buys a boat, you will definitely not rent a boat again in the future. Then won't I lose a regular customer?"

If it's someone else who rents for a month, I'll give you a 30% discount at most. If you're an old acquaintance, I'll give you a 40% discount."

Father Li shook his head and said, "You have a good idea. I've rented boats from you so many times, and it's enough for me to buy one, right? At least 50% off, otherwise I won't rent it and just buy a second-hand one."

Chen Laosi immediately laughed and said: "I'm just kidding, why do you take it seriously? If you really buy a boat, then I can earn some maintenance fees. I'm happy before it's too late. How come I really don't want you to buy a boat?"

Okay, 50% off, 50% off, scan 1,650 and give it to me."

Li Xuan picked up his mobile phone and was about to scan the money, but suddenly stopped again. He asked doubtfully: "Boss Chen, if it's 50% off, shouldn't it be one thousand sixty? That fifty is the deposit?"

"That fifty is gas money."

"Oh." Li Xuan just paid, and he said, how could the deposit for a boat be only fifty yuan.

After Chen Laosi received the payment, he stood up and said, "Come with me."

There was a bay outside the dock. Chen Laosi said casually: "You can choose which ship you like."

Li Xuan looked towards the sea and saw dozens of ships of various sizes parked on the sea. There were more than ten small wooden boats without engines, more than twenty ships with engines, and more, some that had been

Among the scrapped ships that had been dismantled into disgrace, there was also an eight or nine meter long steamer on the coast.

The three of them picked a few boats that looked relatively new, asked Chen Laosi for the engine keys, and drove off directly.

Chen Laosi quickly stood on the beach and shouted: "Boss Tang, did you give me a van in your van?"

"Stop at your place first, I'll pick it up tomorrow night," Boss Tang shouted without looking back.

Chen Laosi wanted to say something else, but the boat was already far away from the shore.

Just at this time, the sound of motorcycles was heard outside the dock, and someone shouted at the same time: "Is Mr. Chen at home?"

Chen Laosi quickly turned around and said, "Here he comes, he comes." But he was still confused in his heart, what was going on? It was not the fishing season, and his small dock would not normally have one business in a week, so why were people coming here one after another today?

Soon the three of them drove the boat back to the simple dock at Yulong Bay.

Today at Yulongwan Pier, there are still many people carrying goods. Some of them have come from the village, and some have just returned from the sea.

But everyone already knows the news that Li Xuan will take them to salvage asparagus tomorrow.

Therefore, when everyone saw the Li family and his son, everyone seemed extremely enthusiastic, shouting "Lao Li" and "Brother Xuan".

Li Xuan and his son didn't show any airs, and they chatted with each other for a while.

At this time, Chen Bin squeezed in front of Li Xuan and asked: "Brother Xuan, today Village Chief Zhao said that if we find rare catches in the sea in the future, we can ask you to sell them. The price you sell can be higher than the price on the receiving ship."

high?"

Li Xuan smiled and nodded, "Yes, that's right, but it must be a rare catch. I don't have such a wide way to sell ordinary catches."

Chen Bin nodded quickly and said: "Brother Xuan, I found a treasure in the sea today."

"Oh? What treasure?" Li Xuan looked at Chen Bin in surprise. This guy just caught an ax fish yesterday and found something good again today?

Chen Bin looked around and saw everyone looking at him. After he smiled proudly, he said mysteriously: "It's a fish, a fish I've never seen before, but it's a very beautiful fish."
