Chapter 230 Plans Change

Living and eating were all done on the fishing boat.

Nong Qingying's mother had been working with fish her whole life, and her cooking skills were quite good. Lobster, crab, and grouper were prepared in various ways for three days, and Su Yehao finally couldn't take it anymore, suffering from diarrhea and too weak to go fishing.

At this very moment.

He was sitting shoulder to shoulder with Nong Qingying on the deck of the fishing boat.

He could hear her father in the wheelhouse, exasperatedly telling the other small boats to cooperate and drive the fish towards the designated area.

After wandering around the surrounding ten nautical miles for two days, finally, hard work paid off, and they found traces of the large yellow croaker.

The surrounding net was set up, and now they were just waiting to trap the school of fish.

Su Yehao felt weak all over, drinking sugar and salt water to avoid dehydration.

He had called the doctor before, who suggested adding a little salt to the lightly sweetened water. If you asked him why, Su Yehao wouldn't be able to explain, but he knew it was always right to listen to the doctor.

Nong Qingying said to him, "I'm sorry, we should have gone back sooner, but this is a wild yellow croaker school, they're very expensive. Just hold on a little longer, I'll take you to the hospital when we get back."

"It's okay, important business comes first. It's just a stomachache. If I couldn't hold on, I would have had the helicopter come and pick me up already. I feel much better after drinking the sugar and salt water."

Su Yehao asked with interest, "How much does a pound of wild yellow croaker cost?"

"The bigger the more expensive. In restaurants, a fish weighing one or two *jin* can sell for thousands of dollars. Sold to fishmongers at the pier, fish over two *jin* are about three hundred dollars per *jin*. I'm not too sure."

Nong Qingying had recently made a killing again from Yahoo. She not only recovered all the losses from the end of October but also made a profit of more than twenty million Hong Kong dollars because Su Yehao lent her thirty million to buy the dip.

With money in hand, she had no worries.

She no longer cared about the continuing decline in housing prices, and she was even less worried about the loan for the fishing boat beneath her feet. Her mood became more and more relaxed. As expected, wealth can solve a thousand worries.

No one thinks they have too much money, so facing the school of wild yellow croaker about to be trapped in the sea, Nong Qingying was a little excited at this time, hoping to catch a few thousand *jin*. If they did, they would make a fortune.

Su Yehao was surprised and said, "So expensive? I often see it on the dinner table, but unfortunately, I don't like fish. I'll taste it carefully when my stomach gets better."

"When the fish are hauled onto the boat, pick out a few big ones to take home. Your family has hotels, they should need them too."

After Nong Qingying finished speaking, she changed the subject and asked, "My apartment is rented out, but my parents are still renting a place to live. Do you think housing prices are right these days? I often run into real estate agents when I go shopping, and I've been thinking about buying an apartment. It doesn't need to be too big, a thousand or two thousand square feet is enough."

Su Yehao shook his head decisively and told her:

"It's still in a period of decline. You'll definitely lose money if you buy a house in Hong Kong. If you invest in real estate in Pengcheng, I'll fully support you. You could take out a loan to buy a building, rent it out while enjoying the appreciation of the property. The profit should be very good."

"...When will your family's development be completed?"

"It's still early, probably three or four years from now. When the time comes, I can sell you a large villa at cost price for your parents to retire in."

Mentioning the matter of the house, Su Yehao beckoned and asked the bodyguard to bring the satellite phone.

He made a call to Zhuang Wei, the assistant who stayed at the company, and learned that the bank had processed the documents and was just waiting for Su Yehao to sign them, and the loan could be released at any time.

When Nong Qingying asked, Su Yehao told her the news about acquiring land in Shanghai.

Although she was surprised, she wasn't too shocked, and joked that being a boss was different.

Nong Qingying knew roughly about Su Yehao's income in the past few months. He had earned hundreds of millions just by investing in Yahoo, so it was normal for him to have money to acquire land.

People in Hong Kong have a mysterious obsession with houses, just like mainlanders ten years later, who both love and hate real estate.

The group of people who made money investing in real estate were overjoyed.

Those who couldn't afford a house were deeply resentful, envying others for making money.

Look at the richest people in Hong Kong, most of their businesses are related to the real estate industry, so after hearing that Su Yehao had acquired land, it made sense to Nong Qingying.

At Su Yehao's urging, she really planned to learn about the real estate market in Pengcheng to see if there was an opportunity to get on board.

With one success after another, Nong Qingying now trusts Su Yehao's advice very much. This girl currently has assets of seventy or eighty million and is living a comfortable life...

It took more than four hours from discovering the school of fish to pulling the fishing net onto the boat.

By the time the sailors were happily classifying and freezing the yellow croaker according to size, it was already dark.

Preliminary estimates put the total at about fifteen hundred *jin*, worth more than five hundred thousand Hong Kong dollars. The largest yellow croaker was about seventy centimeters long and weighed more than five *jin*.

Such a fish could earn three or four thousand dollars when sold to a buyer. There were plenty of rich people willing to pay for it.

The fishing boat slowly set sail. The total income from the trip was more than five hundred thousand, enough to satisfy everyone. A school of yellow croaker like this was rare to encounter even in several years, and this was the second time Nong Qingying's father had encountered one this year.

In the short period of a few months after the new fishing boat was launched, it had earned more than one million Hong Kong dollars.

In the past, this would have excited the crew, but because Su Yehao was on board, it always made others a little calmer.

Not only the sailors, but even Nong Qingying's parents had wondered privately how his brain was put together, and why Su Yehao earned money so easily despite doing the same work.

Comparing people is infuriating...

——————————

When he woke up, the fishing boat had returned to the pier.

The fishmongers who had received the news in advance flocked to the pier and surrounded old man Nong, fighting to buy the yellow croaker.

Fifteen hundred *jin* of fish sounded like a lot, but after a few fishmongers divided it up, it was sold out in the blink of an eye.

Yellow croaker under one *jin* cost two hundred dollars per *jin*, one to two *jin* cost three hundred and fifty dollars per *jin*, and over three *jin* cost five hundred dollars per *jin*.

After watching the scene of selling fish, Su Yehao took a few of the biggest fish and drove home first.

He no longer had diarrhea, so there was no need to go to the hospital.

He rested until noon, and then made an appointment with Pei Xinyao and his wife and the people from the bank to sign the contract in the bank's VIP room.

Su Yehao shouldered another loan, and correspondingly, he had an extra piece of land in his hand. He only planned to set it aside in the short term and needed to earn more money from other places to build the building.

He had taken care of his own business.

Only after the transaction was completed did he remember that he had not greeted his father in advance, and considered whether to bring his father along to jointly develop the land and design the architectural plan in advance.

That night.

After learning that his son had acquired a piece of land worth more than two hundred million, Su's father on the other end of the phone was silent for a long time before saying:

"You're doing well. You didn't even ask for my opinion on such a big matter. I've built more houses than you've lived in. What if you get cheated?"

"I didn't say much because I was afraid of being lectured by you. Lujiazui in Shanghai, that place is pretty good."

Su Yehao changed the subject and continued, "Also, I've chosen a fund for you. Dai-Ichi Kangyo Securities is willing to tailor a product for you according to my requirements. Five hundred million isn't too little, and a billion isn't too much. The sooner you buy, the better."

"Plans have changed, I can't buy it. I'm considering acquiring a listed company," Old Man Su said.

Hearing this.

Su Yehao felt a headache, worried that something unexpected would happen again.
