Zhang Hao didn't want to work too hard to stay up late, so he entrusted the matter of dividing the meat to Village Chief Fan.
Village Chief Fan naturally accepted it happily.
Early the next morning, Zhang Hao rarely slept in and went to the village headquarters after breakfast.
Almost all the whale meat is sold, and only a small pile is left. Village Chief Fan is calculating the accounts with a calculator, with a look of exhaustion on his face.
"Uncle Fan, have you been up all night?"
Village Chief Fan waved his hands with a smile: "There is no way, there are so many people in the village, it is easy to cause trouble if we don't keep an eye on them."
"Oh, you have worked so hard."
"Let's not talk about it anymore. You came just in time to report the sales situation." Village Chief Fan opened the small book he carried with him: "A total of 72,535 kilograms were sold last night, including the 2,000 kilograms delivered to your home.
, basically every household bought it."
Zhang Hao pointed to the whale meat on the side: "Are these the leftovers?"
"That's right, I just had someone weigh it and there's about 18,000 kilograms left. These whale meats are all fat and no one wants them."
Village Chief Fan explained casually.
"You don't know what to buy, fat meat is a good thing!"
Zhang Hao couldn't help but sigh.
"They don't want to be any better. There just isn't much cooking oil left in the cafeteria. I'll move it all to the cafeteria for refining later. If I save some, I should be able to eat until the Dragon Boat Festival."
"Don't throw away the oil residue, you can use it to make meatballs."
Zhang Hao quickly reminded me.
Village Chief Fan smiled and nodded: "Speaking of which, I also came from that era. When I was a child, the most greedy thing was oil residue. One piece of oil residue can eat two bowls of rice."
"Then you will eat enough this time."
Zhang Hao took the opportunity to joke.
"Uncle Fan and I have high blood fat, so I can't enjoy the food anymore." Village Chief Fan sighed, "Okay, let's get down to business. When I collect all the money from selling whale meat, I will transfer it to you together."<
/p>
"It's not urgent, it's okay if you owe it."
"No, no, no, you've already given away the benefits to everyone. If anyone dares to default on their debt, that's really heartless. I won't be the first to forgive him."
Village Chief Fan said domineeringly.
"Ahem, Uncle Fan, apart from the villagers in our village, have the migrant workers bought it?"
"I bought them all, a few kilograms less and more than ten kilograms more. They have made a small profit recently, and the Chinese New Year is coming soon, so they are still willing to spend money."
"That's good."
Zhang Hao nodded with satisfaction.
Compared with the villagers of Shawei Village, these people actually need whale meat more.
……
Three days passed by in a flash, and Zhang Hao arrived at the appointment on time with the company's legal affairs staff and more than a dozen bodyguards.
Those who still have the courage to go fishing in the sea at this time are definitely not ordinary people, they are ruthless characters.
"Boss Sun, there was a traffic jam on the road for a while, so I kept you waiting." Zhang Hao said politely.
"It's okay, we just arrived."
"Who are these?"
"Director Zhang, let me introduce it to you..."
After some introduction, both parties had the most basic understanding, especially Boss Sun, who had obviously done his homework and figured out Zhang Hao's identity long ago.
Both sides come here with sincerity.
"Director Zhang, let's stop chatting and get down to business, shall we?"
Boss Sun spoke first.
Zhang Hao nodded: "Okay, everyone is busy during the Chinese New Year, but before we start, I would like to ask, how many fishing boats do you have now?"
"Don't worry, Mr. Zhang, we have assembled three ocean-going fishing boats with a total tonnage of nearly 20,000 tons."
"Are there only three ships?"
Zhang Hao couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. He originally wanted to do something big, but unfortunately the other party didn't do enough.
"Director Zhang, you don't know something. Generally, ocean-going fishing boats cannot go to Antarctica. They must be fishing boats with ice-breaking capabilities.
We only have a few ships in Huicheng, and we found one with great difficulty. As for the other two, they were rented from Shencheng next door."
The speaker's name is Yang Zhaoxiong, a small owner of a local private loan company. His business has been in decline recently. After hearing Boss Sun's plan, he planned to risk all his wealth to give it a try.
"Okay, three ships will be three ships. Let's talk about your general plan first. As long as there are no major problems, my funds will be available immediately."
Yang Zhaoxiong did not answer but asked: "Director Zhang, I also have a question I would like to ask."
"Oh? You said."
"When will Antarctica open? If it takes too long, I will be under great pressure."
"Haha, if you are willing to believe me, you can start preparations now. In short, the sooner you prepare to make an appointment. If there is a delay, all the losses incurred will be mine."
Zhang Hao smiled and reassured.
"Director Zhang, are you kidding us?"
Yang Zhaoxiong and others were instantly happy.
Zhang Hao waved his hand: "I never joke about business. Let's take March 1st as the boundary. For every day of delay, I will pay you one day of loss."
"Okay, Director Zhang is indeed a cheerful person, and we are not irritating people. The specific plan is this. We will start preparations before the year and officially set off on the fifth day of the new year."
"Wait for the federal announcement?"
"No more waiting, we can arrive in South America first, and then wait for the opportunity. Once the Federation opens Antarctica, we can take action immediately."
Zhang Hao's eyes lit up at first, and then he frowned.
Boss Sun asked carefully: "Director Zhang, is there something wrong?"
"As far as I know, since the eruption of the Sulfonite volcano, the Pacific Ocean has been unstable and there are many pirates. It may be dangerous for you to set off alone."
Zhang Hao immediately replied.
"Director Zhang, you are overthinking." Yang Zhaoxiong smiled and waved his hand, and then explained: "Our route to South America is not interrupted. There are escort fleets throughout the entire journey. We can sign up and our safety should be safe." p>
"If that's the case, then I'm relieved. However, you still have to pay attention to safety issues. Don't be afraid of spending money in this regard. The escort fleet cannot always protect you, especially after reaching the Antarctic."
"This is natural, but we are not soft persimmons."
Yang Zhaoxiong nodded solemnly.
Boss Sun followed up and said: "Director Zhang, I heard you said before that there seems to be a cargo ship under your name?"
"Yes, it's a 200,000-ton bulk carrier."
"Where is this freighter now? Can we use it?"
"What do you want to do?" Zhang Hao asked curiously.
"Director Zhang, we are currently in need of a comprehensive supply ship that can also double as a transshipment ship. After all, it is not easy to go to Antarctica. We want to stay as long as possible."
"What? From what you say, do you want to have a big fight?"
"This opportunity is rare. We have not been idle these past two days. We have specially sought out several Antarctic experts to understand the situation. I don't know if I asked, but I was shocked when I asked.
According to them, due to the long-term fishing ban in Antarctica and surrounding areas, the fishery resources are particularly rich, including not only penguins, but also whales and krill. If they are really allowed to open up, it will definitely be an amazing wealth." p>
