"Wow, this is called a boat. I feel that I have stayed on this boat for two days. Those boats before can only be regarded as sampans. They are really fast and stable." Lei Yingdong's subordinate Lengzai bit his cigarette and looked at the boat. The cast iron ingots and rubber are filled with joy in his eyes. In his opinion, these are already equal to banknotes.

Lei Yingdong walked out of the cabin, leaned on the railing and looked at another freighter with a carrying capacity of 1,500 tons, which he named "Confirmed", and exhaled: "Of course, the two ships add up to 2,800. Tons, I have already swallowed most of my hard-earned money. If it’s not as good as the cargo ships converted from fishing boats, then it’s better to sell them as scrap iron.”

These two small sea vessels are two old ships bought by Lei Yingdong with a total of 4 million. One is 38 years old, the other is 20 years old, and 38 The one-year-old freighter spent 1.1 million Hong Kong dollars. At this time, the 20-year-old ship he was on board, with a carrying capacity of 13 million tons, was named "Xingye" at 290. Buying it for 10,000 Hong Kong dollars, and letting the British surveyor of the Hong Kong Ship Inspection Agency help him issue certificates for the two sea vessels, it cost him 80,000 Hong Kong dollars. It can be said that Lei Yingdong has earned it through hard work Two-thirds of the money went to these two sea vessels.

Before his fleet, few ships could actually make it to North Korea or the Liaodong Peninsula. Even if they did, the load on the ships was very small. Unless they were scarce materials, they didn’t make much money. So before Lei Yingdong’s The fleet is Macau or Shenzhen.

However, the freight has risen suddenly recently. Now the mainland does not talk about the price of materials, but the freight for each ton of goods shipped to Liaodong or North Korea has reached 200 US dollars per ton. Before, even if it was shipped to the North Korean terminal, the freight was only 80. U.S. dollars, the highest is only one hundred. That is to say, in the current situation, even if Lei Yingdong transports some worthless sea sand to North Korea, he can earn enough by shipping.

Lei Yingdong’s thinking is very simple. He is not going to keep doing this kind of maritime transportation business to make enough money. He, the barefooted man, will eventually go ashore, but when he wants to do real estate business, he of course takes the opportunity to eat a lot of low prices. The more the land, the more the better. Song Tianyao can’t do that, but making money at sea is not inferior. Think about Song Tianyao already holding banknotes and a large amount of land in Lin’s family at this time. Lei Yingdong only thought after learning that the freight had soared. Within two hours, he decided to buy the two ships that were fully loaded to the sea at this time.

The two ships have a load of 2,800 tons, and they carry 300 tons of oil, daily supplies, and water. The embargoed goods contain a full 2,500 tons. It is only a freight to North Korea for one trip. You can receive half a million U.S. dollars only for the freight. Even if you deduct various expenses, it is still a huge profit and scary. As long as the four or five round trips can be carried out safely, how much money Song Tianyao makes on Hong Kong Island, he Lei Yingdong said on the sea Uncertainty can surpass him.

A ship of steel and rubber, a ship of medicines and chemical raw materials, other steel, rubber, chemical raw materials, Lei Yingdong's profit is not high, but half of the penicillin is his relationship through Song Tianyao, in Chu Xiaoxin’s Likang The company got it and sold it to him at the normal price.

"It's no wonder that those Shanghainese who run boats are worth hundreds of millions at every turn. You can run these two boats safely for two years, and you will be worth hundreds of millions." Lengzai rubbed his wet hands, yes. Lei Yingdong said.

Lei Yingdong shook his head: "How could I have the opportunity to run for two full years, or for two months, I have already prayed to God to worship Buddha, this time I can buy two boats and I am very grateful, those Shanghainese are rich in wealth, okay? The previous shipowner took care of me. Otherwise, even if I wanted to buy a ship, I couldn’t compete with the Shanghainese. After running for two months, I sold the ship to the Shanghainese and made a fortune. I'll take you ashore and do things. It’s almost the strait, and after crossing the Taiwan Strait, the money is already half way into the pocket, and the eyes are full of bright spots."

The black and heavy waters stretched to the horizon, and the two thousand-ton small sea vessels swayed in the direction of the Taiwan Strait like ants between the sky and the sea.

"Brother Chunsheng, how is the singing of my family's troupe?" Yu Shiting said slowly as he listened to the babbling Kunqu opera.

On the stage in front of his homeland, two Kunqu opera actors are singing the classic one-fold "Dream of Dreams" from "The Peony Pavilion". These two actors were brought to Hong Kong from Shanghai Beach. They were Huang Jinrong at the Shanghai Beach World. The protruding red corner in the theater, although Hong Kong radio has become popular now, Yu Shiting still likes to make these two actors dressed up in costumes and put on a facial makeup in his spare time, and sing two paragraphs in front of him.

Zeng Chunsheng, who was next to him, obviously did not have Yu Shiting's Yaxing at this time. Hearing that Yu Shiting picked up the topic he had just mentioned, he immediately spoke again and said in a voice with Shanghai white:

"Now that the freight has skyrocketed, it’s rare for you to have Yaxing with your boss. Two hundred dollars a ton. This news leaked out. People who are fascinated by the money don’t know how many people will be. Boss Yu, Nong knows it. The Chinese do not engage in shipping. Shipping is the exclusive business of the British. It was North Korea who fought the war. Those British people could not make money, and the Chinese were able to make friendship with the mainland. So this ship The business of luck has only started again. Speaking of which, we first opened the door to friendship with the mainland. It was made by the group of people who came to Hong Kong from the mainland. Before, everyone was Chinese. The locals in Hong Kong rob our business. Smuggling some supplies to Macau, Shenzhen is fine, but this far-sea business has always been where we are present. Lei Danzi took two boats and went out to sea without saying hello. It broke the rules! Those two boats were booked by Wei early in the morning, and they are raising money. How can they know that Lei Danzi won them, and now they are taking business with us openly."

"Scramble for business? Brother Chunsheng, we do business with Japan, which is different from Lei Danzi." Yu Shiting corrected a mistake in Zeng Chunsheng's words: "You know, do business with Japanese people." , It’s totally different from helping North Korea transport supplies."

"In this group of people, you are the boss who has the most freighters now. Everyone has grievances in their hearts. Just wait for you to speak, and we will make the surname Lei look good." Zeng Chunsheng looked straight at Yu Shiting with both eyes. .

Yu Shiting, who went to Hong Kong in 1949, is now worth hundreds of millions and owns 23 small and medium-sized sea vessels in the hands of his relatives. In Hong Kong, Yu Shiting shook his head quietly:

"Brother Chunsheng, the businessman has done it. Lei Danzai can buy two boats to go to sea, so he has luck. Since he has luck, the sea business is most about luck. Since he is lucky, let him make some money. It’s no big deal, listen to the play, listen to the play."

Seeing that he hadn't moved Yu Shiting, Zeng Chunsheng sighed and said goodbye. When he walked out of the door of his house and got into his car, Zeng Chunsheng looked at the door of Yu's house through the car window and cursed in a low voice: "Old fox! I have arrangements. Since you will not help everyone this time, in the future..."
