Fishing the Tides in 1992: I Help My Fishing Village Build a Cold Storage and Strike It Rich!

[1990s] [Reborn] [No System or Pocket Dimension] [Beachcombing] [Ship Repair] [Cold Storage] [Ice-Making Workshop] [Building Wealth Through Industry] [One Female Lead]

Luo Dinghai is reborn in 1992.

His father's small ice-making workshop has lost power, his business partner wants to pull out, and the family's only fishing boat has been written off as a "hopeless wreck."

Everyone tells him to strip the equipment for scrap and hurry off to the city to find work.

Luo Dinghai, who spent more than twenty years repairing ship engines in his previous life, hears the strange noise of the engine turning and suddenly smiles.

"The boat isn't dead. Someone's just waiting to haul it away as scrap."

First, he repairs the boat. Then he goes beachcombing.

Others miss a tide because of a breakdown, while his old boat sails out without a hitch. Others have to sell spoiled seafood for next to nothing, while he puts his limited supply of ice to work preserving the most valuable catch.

He repairs a boat and earns his first wages; brings several fishing families together and secures his first supply of goods; rents a small storage room and sets up his first proper temporary storage facility.

Years later, the local fishermen realize they need him to repair their boats before heading out, his cold storage when they return, and his market advice when they sell their catch.

The people who once wanted to buy his family's scrap metal now show up with contracts, begging to work with him.

Luo Dinghai wipes the grease from his hands.

"You used to say my family's machines weren't worth a thing. Well, now you can get in line!!!"
