Live stream: Bragging to an orca, exposed by netizens

A short while later, two supermarket workers finished unloading the goods and came to say goodbye to Shen Fei. "Mr. Shen, we have put the goods in the living room on the first floor. Here is the list. Mr. Smith has already paid for the goods. If you need anything else, you can call our supermarket's delivery number directly."

Two workers handed him a packing list and a business card, then drove off in their pickup truck.

Before, Shen Fei would have been filled with anxiety and confusion, not knowing where the future lay. But now, he clenched his fist, full of energy.

He waved warmly to the two supermarket employees, saying, "Thank you."

"I'll contact you again if needed."

After seeing both groups off, Shen Fei returned to the living room on the first floor, feeling completely relaxed.

While tidying up his belongings, he surprisingly found a steaming hot pizza and two bottles of beer.

This must have been specially prepared for him by Smith.

Shen Fei was hungry, so he sat down on the sofa on the first floor without any ceremony, ate pizza and drank beer, and opened his great-grandfather's notebook.

It's called a notebook, but it's actually filled with work schedules written on it.

According to the plan, the best time to release fish fry is between spring and summer each year. If fish fry are to be released, they need to be purchased from aquatic product companies.

It will definitely cost a lot of money.

At the same time, manpower should be organized to check whether the fence in Pearl Lake is intact, whether it needs to be repaired, and if it is damaged, it should be replaced.

After all, he wasn't the only fish farm owner in Pearl Lake.

If you carefully release fish fry, only to have them slip through holes in the netting and end up in the neighboring fish farm, wouldn't all your efforts be wasted?

Whether it's buying fish fry or repairing equipment, money is needed.

By the way, as the owner of the fish farm, Shen Fei certainly wouldn't do the work himself. In other words, these jobs would have to be done by hired others. Maple Leaf Country is vast and sparsely populated, so labor costs are not cheap.

These all require money.

Shen Fei rubbed his forehead. The 10 Canadian dollar check that Smith had lent him might not be enough.

Are we really going to have to take out a bank loan of 300 million Canadian dollars?

Although Shen Fei became a fish farm owner in Canada by accident, he was a genuine Chinese at heart. Before he could settle down and start his business, he not only owed 52 Canadian dollars in estate verification tax, but also owed Smith 10 Canadian dollars.

Having too much debt makes me feel uneasy.

"Try to avoid accumulating debt if possible. It seems I'll have to rely on myself for this initial startup capital."

Shen Fei closed his notebook and returned to the steps beside the manor.

Pearl Lake is like a naughty child, quietly nestled to one side, with the lake shore less than a few dozen meters away from the manor.

Beneath the turbulent surface of the lake lies something Shen Fei desires: the treasure from the sunken ship.

Although the Canadian government has hired salvage companies to conduct salvage operations, there are certainly many fish that have slipped through the net.

Now that Shen Fei has the Heart of the Ocean as a cheat code, he can communicate with the fish in the lake and use them to help him find the sunken treasure.

However, this time Shenyang Aircraft Corporation decided to prepare thoroughly before taking action.

He thought for a while, then went back to the bedroom in the living room and reopened his great-grandfather's notebook.

In addition to the precautions for operating a fish farm, the post also included the contact information of more than 10 employees. These were long-time employees who had worked with his great-grandfather for many years, and their character and work ability were trustworthy.

This can be considered an invisible asset left to Shenfei.

As for the Pearl Lake shipwreck, there isn't much information about it.

Shen Fei turned on a computer in the room, intending to search online, but found that there was no internet cable in the room.

"Damn it!"

Shen Fei complained that the most urgent task was to run the internet and telephone lines in the house, otherwise they would be completely blind.

Oh, and he also wants to buy a used car.

Otherwise, it's five or six kilometers from his estate to the town; is he supposed to just walk there?

With that thought in mind, Shen Fei quickly flipped to the employee contact information at the back of his notebook. His gaze swept across the page and finally settled on a name at the very top.

James, male, 55 years old, immigrant from Mexico, works as a housekeeper, is meticulous and reliable, good at cooking, knows Chinese food, and currently lives in Kaoshan Town.

Shen Fei quickly dialed his phone number.

"Uncle James, hello. I am Shen Fei, Shen Youtian's grandson. I have inherited my grandfather's Dasheng Fish Farm, but everything here is in ruins and we have to start from scratch. I need your help."

There was a pause on the phone, followed by a deep, steady male voice tinged with excitement, "Hello Mr. Shen, I've been waiting for your call for a long time. I met Mr. Smith this morning, and he said I'll be back at work soon."

Shen Fei smiled, feeling a surge of warmth towards these old companions left to him by his great-grandfather. He asked directly, "I need you to come to work tomorrow."

"No problem!"

James happily agreed.

"One last question, what is your salary?"

"CAD 5000 per month after tax."

"Then everything will remain the same. See you tomorrow morning."

Shen Fei hung up the phone quickly.

In Canada, the wage tax rate is approximately 22%. A monthly salary of 5000 Canadian dollars after tax is equivalent to 6500 Canadian dollars before tax. This amount would be quite ordinary in a major city, but considering that this is just a small town under the jurisdiction of St. John's, and given the less-than-ideal economic situation here, this income is already considered high.

Hopefully, this butler named James is worth the price.

It seems that the $10 cheque that Smith lent him won't last long.

After ending the call with James, Shen Fei's gaze continued downwards, landing on a man named Pete.

Pete, male, 39 years old, British immigrant, is said to have been a notorious Caribbean pirate in his ancestry. He is a good swimmer, hardworking, skilled with fishing nets, and a carpenter who can repair various small boats and tools.

Position: Squad Leader.

There were several others like Pete who were labeled as squad leaders, but Shenfei chose him first because his salary was relatively low.

$12,000 CAD per month after tax.

Canada's wage tax system uses a tiered tax rate. For someone like James, who earns 5000 Canadian dollars after tax, the personal income tax rate is 22%, but for someone like Pete, who earns over 1 Canadian dollars after tax, the tax rate is 26%.

In other words, hiring Pete would cost 15,000 Canadian dollars per month.

This is still the lowest-paid of all the squad leaders.

Shen Fei secretly estimated that the initial capital of 10 Canadian dollars, if used to pay employee salaries without doing anything, would only last for a few months.

But this money has to be spent.
