Chapter 3 Buying Seafood

Arriving at the county town, Jiang You spent a long time wandering around the largest vegetable market. There were only local freshwater fish, and the seafood was all frozen, including artificially cultured yellow croaker, squid, hairtail, etc.

Didn't see a single grouper.

He asked the seafood stall owners again, don’t you sell live seafood?

The stall owners laughed. To sell live seafood, you have to have sea water to keep it and transport it alive. This is a small county town. Do you think this is a provincial capital?

Jiang You was right when he thought about it. How much money would it cost to transport live seafood so far?

Thinking of this, he chuckled, "I'll open a seafood stall here and run it exclusively. Isn't that enough?"

Just do it.

Let’s test the water today.

Thinking of this, he got into the reef at a corner, carrying a bucket with two groupers in it, left the island, came to the fish stall, and put down the bucket.

Soon, someone came up to ask about the price.

"Hey, live seafood, or grouper?" Someone who knows the goods said, "This kind of grouper is probably very expensive, right? How much does it cost per pound?"

[To be honest, I have been using Yeguo to read and catch up on books recently. I can switch sources and read aloud with many sounds. www. Android and Apple are available.]

Jiang You was speechless.

He really doesn't know the market.

"Give me a price," Jiang said.

"Shall I give you a price? Aren't you the other way around? Three hundred and one catty, do you want to sell it?"

The customer is indeed an expert. He has worked abroad and likes to eat grouper very much. However, he has never seen this kind of grouper. He estimated that he would not be able to buy it at 300 kilograms.

Unexpectedly, Jiang You agreed immediately.

"Three hundred is three hundred."

Yesterday, Wang Xin took away a ten-jin weight and gave him two thousand or three hundred and one kilogram. The price should not be a loss.

This man bought both.

Jiang You counted the money in his hand, six thousand! The money came so quickly.

Jiang You carried the empty bucket again and came to the corner. Seeing no one, he entered the island again. This time, he brought out two groupers and two large lobsters. He went to the place where the fish was sold just now.

.

The stall owner selling freshwater fish next to him came over to take a look curiously, "Hey, it's alive again? Where did you buy it?"

Jiang You didn't know how to lie, so he raised his lips and said vaguely: "Over there!"

"Over there? I have been selling fish here for more than ten years, and I have never heard of live seafood being sold. Young man, you didn't lie to me?"

Jiang You was about to respond vaguely when another customer came to the door.

"Hey! Big lobster? Live? How can I buy this shrimp?"

"Please give me a price."

Jiang You really didn't know the market. It was even the first time for him to see a lobster. A two-pound lobster was so shocking to him.

Jiang You really didn't know what the price would be for such a big guy.

"Five hundred, do you want to sell it?"

Jiang You nodded and said vaguely: "Okay, just five hundred and one catty."

Two, five pounds and two taels, rounded up, twenty-five hundred yuan.

"What a loss, young man." After the shrimp buyer had gone away, the master selling freshwater fish said, "These are tiger head shrimps. They are only wild ones. Three thousand yuan a pound is not expensive. You guys, fuck you."

I don’t understand, you should know how much the goods cost, aren’t you just fooling around?”

Jiang You was speechless.

He said awkwardly: "I really don't know the price. A friend brought it for me from other places. I couldn't bear to eat it, so I used it to make money. I made you laugh."

The master selling freshwater fish said: "Are there any more? I'll help you sell them!"

When Jiang You heard this, he said, "Okay, let's form a partnership. From now on, we will specialize in selling live seafood."

The freshwater fish seller was overjoyed when he heard this. He was about to speak when he was stopped by a voice.

"You can't cooperate with him!" The speaker was looking at the groupers in Jiangyou's bucket. He picked up a grouper and said, "This is a zombie grouper, a South American species. Where did you get it?"

Jiang You looked this man up and down, "As for where I got it, you don't need to worry about this."

"Ten items, ten items a day, can you guarantee that they will be available?"

"Ten items?" Jiang You chuckled. Ten items a day, one day outside, is equal to twenty-four days on the island. Two hundred and forty items is not a problem, let alone ten items? "It can be guaranteed."

"Well, you don't need to sell fish here anymore. Come with me and I will cooperate with you."

Jiang You frowned slightly and looked at the person in front of him a few more times.

"Really? Do you think I will definitely be willing to cooperate with you? First of all, you have to let me know who you are, right?" Jiang You looked at this slightly fat man warily.

The man laughed and said: "I am Liu Zailun, the manager of Helen Seafood Hotel. I specialize in seafood. I need wild groupers like yours. Give me ten fish a day, but I can't sell them openly. I don't know the price."

I'm sorry for you. If you have any other seafood, just bring it over and I'll take it all."

The man who claimed to be Manager Liu said coaxingly.

Jiang You just needs a place to ship goods. Now there is a big hotel to be purchased. Jiang You is eager to buy it. Where can he negotiate the price?

"Okay. Let me ask you, do you want wild large yellow croaker?" Jiang You asked tentatively, "And lobster, such as tiger head shrimp."

"Wild large yellow croaker?" Manager Liu's voice was hoarse, "How big is it?"

"It's about three or four pounds."

"Three or four pounds? Yes! Why don't you want it? It's 10,000 yuan a piece, and you pay in cash!"

Nowadays, wild large yellow croaker is very rare. One pound or two pounds can cost one thousand yuan per pound. However, if it is three or four pounds per piece, the price is not one thousand. They are usually sold on the basis of ten thousand yuan per piece.

The market is very big.

Liu Zailun's face changed with excitement, "Let's go and see our boss."

Arriving at Helen Seafood Hotel, Jiang You was attracted by the momentum here. Such a high-end hotel was actually opened in an ordinary county-level city like Jiangcheng?

While Jiang You was admiring the luxurious decoration, he followed Liu Zailun as he walked forward. Suddenly, a faint fragrance came over him, and his eyes suddenly lit up. Jiang You suddenly froze half of his body, and a beautiful woman appeared in front of him.

"Oh, Xue Jing, look at this grouper." Manager Liu bowed and said respectfully to the beauty.

This should be the boss, around 20 years old, an absolutely rich second generation.

She looked at it and was shocked: "Ah! Zombie spots? Where did they come from?"

"This young man sent it." Manager Liu pointed at Jiang You, "He said he can supply it for a long time."

Xue Jing was surprised again, "You said you can supply it for a long time?"

"Yes." Jiang said.

This is puzzling. You delivered the grouper from South America to my hotel alive. Not to mention live, even freezing it is not easy.

"Okay! You make a price. As long as it's not too outrageous, we've decided on the deal!" Xue Jing said with a majestic air, "However, I want you to only provide for my family. Of course, I mean within the confines of Jiangcheng."

He is indeed the real boss.

"Price?" I don't know what the heck, Jiang You muttered in his heart. I have bought this grouper for two hundred and three hundred and one kilograms. You want me to give you a price? I don't know what the heck. Jiang You smiled and said, "Boss Xue,

Please don’t make me look embarrassed, okay? I’d rather you decide on a price.”

Xue Jing hesitated for a moment and asked tentatively: "Five hundred, how about it?"

Jiang You trembled and calculated, one pound is five hundred, ten pounds is five thousand, one hundred pounds a day, and the income is fifty thousand! What else is worth worrying about? So he simply smiled brightly and said, "Okay.

!For the sake of your beautiful boss, if you say five hundred, it’s five hundred, and I won’t add a penny!”

"make a deal!"

Neither Liu Zailun nor Xue Jing expected Jiang You to be so cheerful. They were so happy that it would be much easier to talk about specific matters. The result was that Xue Jing sent someone to pick up the goods every day, and they would buy as much as Jiang You had. Of course.

, in order to build a brand, Jiangyou agreed to build a seawater pool for Helen Seafood Hotel and raise fish in the pool. Customers can go directly to the pool to choose fish when ordering.
