Chapter 3569: Spicy means

I looked at the old man in the middle of the week, and then said indifferently: "Don't disturb me drinking!"

The old man froze for a moment, but immediately laughed again, and said with some embarrassment: "Little friend, come and sit here."

Zhou Zhong shook his head and said, "Don't go."

The old man was anxious now. He looked around and saw the fish basket where he put his fish next to him. His eyes lit up and he said, "Little friend, I just caught two good yellow croakers. Why don't we take it? Is it roasted?"

"Can you bake it?" asked with a calm look in the middle of the week, still sitting there without moving his butt.

The old man saw Zhou Zhong questioning him, so he hurriedly took out a small stove from his dirty pocket.

Then he added a few pieces of dry wood to light it, and skillfully used a wooden stick to pierce the yellow croaker, pluck the scales, and set it up on a small stove.

This action of the old man made Zhou Zhong and Lin Lu look stunned. Obviously this old man often grilled fish on the dock.

Not long after, the two plump yellow croakers made a babble sound, and the scent of fish wafted in the air for a while, mixed with the fragrance of wine, and the taste was very attractive.

The old man was like a strange uncle who tricked a child, he raised his hand at the middle of the week and said, "Little friend, come and sit down!"

In the middle of the week, he stood up reluctantly, walked over to the old man and sat down, and asked, "Old man, are you afraid that we will disturb your fish and let them run away?"

The old man suddenly laughed embarrassedly, and said, "You little friend is not forgiving."

Lin Lu gently slapped Zhou Zhong's back with her fingers to tell him not to talk nonsense, and then said to the old man: "Uncle, do you often come here to fish?"

The old man's eyes fixed on the Erguotou in Zhou Zhong's hand. After hearing Lin Lu's question, he said without turning his head: "I have been fishing here every day for more than 10 years."

Lin Lu was very surprised. He didn't expect this old man to come here to fish for more than 10 years. It can be said that he knew everything on the dock.

"Master, you must know everything on the dock."

"You girl, always ask what's going on on the pier? I don't care about the mess on the pier, old man, old man I just want to fish and drink."

Speaking of drinking, the old man couldn't help but began to swallow saliva.

In the middle of the week, he shook the Erguotou in his hand and said to the old man: "Old man, if you want to drink, you have to tell us about this pier."

The old man couldn't resist the temptation to drink, and he struggled a bit and said, "Well, you two little babies are also very destined. Old man, I will tell you about the pier."

Seeing the old man's promise, he handed the unopened bottle of wine to the old man in the middle of the week, and then the three of them sat around, eating grilled fish, drinking wine, and listening to the old man talking about the pier.

"My old man has been fishing here for seventeen or eighteen years. When I was fishing, this pier was not a pier. At that time, there were more fish than now. Since the pier was built, I have been catching fewer fish every day. "

As the old man took a sip of Erguotou, he continued: "You two little babies want to ask about the pier, but there are too many things on the pier. What do you want to ask?"

Lin Lu stopped going around in circles at this time, and asked directly: "Master, I want to know how the freight volume of our terminal is now, is there little cargo?"

"Bullshit! Who told you that there are few goods? See for yourself, how many goods go in and out on this dock every day!"

"It's hard to count the carts that pull goods. Even during lunch, these carts keep coming in and out."

Lin Lu heard the words and continued to ask: "Master, there are so many goods on this dock. Is it because our shipping company offers low prices, so they all come here to ship the goods?"

"The price is low? Hey girl, you just don't understand shipping at first glance. These shipping companies are all black now, and you don't know that the current terminals are all monopolized."

"Don't think there are so many shipping companies on this terminal, but the locked prices are all very different. No one dares to fight a price war."

"Donghai Wharf is one of the largest wharves in the Jiangnan area, and has trade relations with ports in dozens of countries around the world."

"This route is the most important resource. Therefore, the shipping companies on the East China Sea terminal charge a lot more than other terminals nearby."

After receiving this information, Lin Lu already had a certain understanding of the company's affairs.

The goods are abundant and the shipping price is high, but the company has been losing money. What's so tricky in this, a fool can see it.

"Okay, old man, you can drink here by yourself. Let's go first." Seeing that the question was almost done in the middle of the week, he gave the old man the half bottle of wine he drank, and then left with Lin Lu.

The old fishing man was holding two bottles of Erguotou, and suddenly laughed, "This is my baby, and the wife at home sees me very closely. It's hard to drink a drink!"

"I didn't expect to catch a fish today and have such a good harvest! Put these two bottles of wine with my water so that my wife won't doubt it."

With that said, the old man put two bottles of wine in his pocket, and there was another bottle of wine beside his pocket. In fact, it was just an Erguotou wine bottle with water in it.

He liked to drink since he was young, and later got a serious illness, and his wife stopped him from drinking since then.

But it was really uncomfortable for him to be addicted to alcohol. In the end, he could only comfort himself by holding a wine bottle and filling it with water.

I just saw the wine bottle when I came here in the middle of the week, so I guessed that the old man must be a good wine, so I went to buy Erguotou.

After Zhou Zhong and Lin Lu left the old fishing man, they walked out of the pier again.

Midweek asked questioningly: "Wife, where are we going now?"

Lin Lu said with a groaning expression: "Guo Donghai bastard, dare to swallow the freight, we have to find evidence and take him down!"

"Find evidence? Let's ask him directly!" Zhou Zhong said. He didn't like to be circumspect. According to his style of work, he rushed in and beat Guo Donghai violently until he confessed.

But Lin Lu naturally wouldn't do this. Lin Lu said: "I checked it when I came out. There is an accountant in the company, and he knows all the company's incoming and outgoing accounts."

"The accountant lives in the residential area next to the pier. Let's go there to find him."

The two left the dock and walked for about ten minutes to the nearby residential area.

This residential area was built at the same time as the wharf, and it has a history of more than 10 years. It seems that there have been some failures, and most of the people living in it are workers working on the wharf.
