The Ministry of Fisheries attaches great importance to this fishery auction because it is a pilot project. If successful, it can be promoted so that fishery owners can make more money, so that more people will engage in fishery farming.
Therefore, this time it was Matthew King who came to preside over the auction, and Canada¡¯s prime minister personally came to the battle.
Sometimes Qin Shiou feels that life is not easy for senior officials in these countries. As the saying goes, "Life is like drinking water, and you know whether it is warm or cold." People from the outside world just see Matthew King commanding the entire Canadian fishery, and they can open or close it with a single order. Several fishing grounds have left thousands of people unemployed or employed, but who knows the pressure they bear?
After meeting Matthew Jin this time, a year later, Qin Shiou felt that Mr. Minister was more obviously older, and the crow's feet at the corners of his eyes were much deeper.
In comparison, Qin Shiou's life is much better. Like Xianyun Yehe, the fishing ground is a cornucopia, making money for him continuously.
And if he is short of money, he can go to the bottom of the sea to find a sunken ship. There is still a gold ship being salvaged. Once it is salvaged, his assets can make breakthroughs again.
Matthew Jin usually has nothing to do but think about how Canada¡¯s fisheries will develop. What about Qin Shiou? What he is thinking about is what to eat tonight and where to play with his daughter tomorrow
After meeting, Matthew King didn¡¯t say much to him. The two shook hands and separated. Qin Shiou was then pulled into the crowd by Donald and his group of familiar fishermen.
There were a lot of people attending the auction this time, about 200 people, filling the venue to capacity. These people vaguely form two groups, one is mainly based in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, and the other is around the North Atlantic.
After Qin Shiou arrived, Donald pulled him away, but then a fishery owner from the Gulf of St. Lawrence came to him to chat and talk, and the topic started with the movie that director Cameron was going to make this time.
The prototype of the male protagonist of this movie is Qin Daguan, which is something he is very proud of. Three years ago, he would not have dared to think that one day he would become the prototype of a top Hollywood director.
Of course, at that time, he could not imagine that he would be so popular in a foreign country. At the auction, almost everyone wanted to make friends with him, and his popularity was even more popular than Fisheries Minister Matthew King.
Donald said to him jealously: "You have become a heartthrob, man. Fortunately we are not holding a party, otherwise I think you will be the prom emperor here."
Qin Shiou asked easily: "Then did I charm you?"
Donald smiled and said slyly: "If you are willing to sell me a batch of Atlantic cod, pollock and haddock fry, then I will definitely be fascinated by you."
Like his goal, others came into contact with Qin Shiou in order to obtain his fish, shrimps and crab seedlings.
Since last year, the international seafood industry has been in trouble. Canada¡¯s fishery is one of the country¡¯s pillar industries. Fish farm owners rely on foreign exchange to make money. Almost everyone here is in the export business.
However, due to the global economic downturn, Canada¡¯s marine seafood sales have repeatedly declined, making fishery owners worried.
This is also related to the Canadian government¡¯s positioning. Because it is close to the Arctic, Canada¡¯s seawater in both the North Atlantic and North Pacific waters is less polluted, while the fish, shrimps and crabs in cold waters grow slowly, are rich in nutrients, and taste good.
Therefore, Canada¡¯s marine products are graded according to high-end standards. As the economies of various countries become more and more depressed, the sales ability of high-end seafood is gradually declining. In the end, it is the fishery owners who suffer the losses.
Such as geoduck, snow crab, Dungeness crab, Arctic ginseng, white ginseng and other precious seafood. In the first decade of the 21st century, Canada¡¯s annual export volume was calculated in units of hundreds of tons. Now it exports a year. A few hundred tons is not easy.
The demand for Maine lobster exports has increased significantly this year, but due to the bacteria Kievella in lobsters, Canada¡¯s lobster fishing has dropped sharply, and it can¡¯t even supply the domestic market. Who will export?
The reason why Qin Shiou attracted so much attention is that his situation was different. When everyone else couldn't sell their seafood, he created a high-end brand of Daqin seafood, which was super high-end. He didn't have to worry about selling it at all. Doesn¡¯t it make people envious and jealous?
The fishery owners present are all smart people. They know that jealousy is useless, so they try their best to make friends with Qin Shiou, hoping to get his help to sell their seafood under the Daqin brand.
They have all calculated that even if they only sell half the price of the fish caught in Daqin Fishing Ground, they can make a huge profit!
After almost everyone arrived, Matthew King announced the meeting.One link is free questioning. Fishing farm owners can ask questions about policies and the current status of seafood trade. They can also make good suggestions and discuss them together.
Donald was very active and seized the first opportunity to speak. He directly fired at Minister Matthew: "Mr. Minister, we want to know that the cod and tuna fishing season is coming soon. Can the quota given to us this year be increased?"
In order to protect the sustainable development of fisheries, Canada is relatively cautious in its seafood fishing quotas. It will calculate a more appropriate value based on the fishing and sales conditions of the past five years, then conservatively reduce this value, and finally allocate it. It¡¯s everyone¡¯s fishing quota.
The fishing grounds are better. Those fishing boats that go out to sea need to purchase a fishing license, and this license has a catch limit, and exceeding it is not allowed. Therefore, how much money a boat can make by going to sea can almost be calculated in advance.
Matthew King was silent for a moment and said: "So what if the fishing quota is increased? Do you think the market can eat so many fish, shrimps and crabs? If not, what are you going to do? Reduce the price?"
"This is a national matter. We are fish farmers, not engaged in import and export trade." Someone said angrily.
As soon as someone complained, others followed, and the venue suddenly became noisy. In the past two years, most fishery owners have suffered losses rather than profits. They were holding back their anger. If they had the opportunity to attack the Minister of Fisheries, no one would let go. complain?
Qin Shiou crossed his hands and said nothing. It was better for him not to interfere in this situation.
But at this time, as a core figure, it was impossible for him to stay out of the matter. Matthew King directly changed the topic to him and said: "I know that many fishery owners here have lost money, but why can a young fishery owner make money?" , you experienced old fishery owners, but you can¡¯t make any money?¡±
Hundreds of eyes focused on Qin Shiou. The senior official of Qin smiled and nodded to everyone around him. He secretly cursed Matthew Jin, an old man, for being unloyal. He was hanging him on the fire.
Fortunately, he prepared the barbecue grill in advance and he could escape: "I want to thank someone" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
