Chapter 117 I heard that someone wants to be a matchmaker for you? (Sixth update, please order)
“Haha!”
“Isn’t there less fish recently? The price must be better.”
“Remember if you have good things, send them first I’ll come here.”
“The price is definitely higher than where you sell it.”
Liu Gang forced a smile on his face and felt a little helpless. A competitor came and the price was not higher. What should he do if Zhao Dahai sent the fish to the other side? The price of purchasing fresh seafood has increased by 20% in the past few days. Next, he said no. The price must continue to rise in order to grab good fish, shrimps and crabs.
Zhao Dahai glanced at a newly opened restaurant on the opposite side of the road and smiled. This was most likely the reason. However, there was no need to rub salt into Liu Gang’s wounds because the price was high and it was not good for him. Good thing, I made more money.
Liu Gang called the people in the restaurant to come out, fished out the black sea bream from the bucket, drained it into a basket, and weighed it. It was eighteen pounds and seven taels, a total of six hundred and fifty-four yuan and fifty cents.
“That’s right!”
“Boss Liu.”
"Do you want this thing?"
Zhao Dahai almost forgot and took out a mesh bag from the bucket containing small black sea bream, which contained tiger fish alone.
“Yo!”
“This is a good thing!”
“How could you not want it?”
"Three hundred... no, three hundred and fifty yuan per catty!"
Liu Gang saw the size of the tiger fish and the fish, and immediately took the initiative to increase the price by fifty.
Zhao Dahai knows that the price of tiger fish is not low. A catty fish usually sells for 150 yuan a catty. His own fish weighs two catties, but it does not sell for more than 350 yuan a catty. Jin, offering this price shows that Liu Gang is under a lot of pressure.
Zhao Dahai is not a saint. If you have money, you can’t make money. He can’t just let 351 jins go without selling. He has to ask for 310 jins before selling. The price Liu Gang came up with is definitely not a loss, but it’s just less money. After making some money, it was weighed on the scale, and it was two catties and twenty taels. A fish cost seven hundred and seventy yuan. This was much more valuable than the eighteen catties and seventy taels of black sea bream we just sold.
“The sea.”
"Can you get some good stuff? Grouper, crab paste, blood eel, tiger fish, whatever."
Liu Gang settled the account, counted the money, and handed it to Zhao Dahai.
“Haha!”
“Boss Liu.”
“These are valuable goods you mentioned.”
"If I can catch it, will I let it go? No one can make money without making money, right?"
......
"There won't be any groupers in the shallow sea area, just the size. They are both relatively small and not worth much.”
“The red spot and gentian grouper sold to you were an accident.”
……
"The paste crabs and pickled crabs are out of season now. If they are not out of season, it is very difficult to catch them in large quantities."
"There must be big blue crabs deep in the mangroves, but there are no People can go in. "
......
"Needless to say, things like tiger fish are very rare."
"I had no intention of fishing for black sea bream. Got one. Specializing in fishing for tiger fish and grouper, I can only drink the northwest wind.”
...
Liu Gang sighed. What he said was correct. The things he wanted to collect were all rare and good things. Zhao Dahai was not the son of the Sea Dragon King. He could not be like this every day. harvest.
Liu Gang thought about it for a while and asked Zhao Dahai if he could specifically catch the fish, shrimps and crabs he wanted. As long as he went to sea, no matter whether there was a harvest or not, the price would be two hundred yuan a day. If he caught it, he would buy it at the market price.
Zhao Dahai immediately refused.
What Liu Gang means is that regardless of whether he can catch the fish, shrimps and crabs he wants, he will get two hundred yuan a day. Six thousand yuan a month. Most people who go fishing may not be able to earn so much in a month. However, what Liu Gang wants is not just ordinary fish, shrimps and crabs that he can catch just by thinking. It makes sense to not catch anything for a day or two, but for ten and a half months if there is no catching or the number of catches is very small, maybe Liu Gang will feel that he did not go out to sea to fish at all, but just went to the sea to find a place to lie down for a day. If he comes back and says that he did not catch anything, he will still get two hundred .
It's true that you want to make money, but you can't do such a thing.
Zhao Dahai told Liu Gang that if he really caught good products such as groupers, he would definitely send them over. He left on his motorcycle and rushed to the fish market. He stood at the gate and looked at it for a while, and was sure Zhang Li walked up to Ding Xiaoxiang with the fish in hand.
Ding Xiaoxiang took a large plastic basket and placed it on the ground.
Zhao Dahai poured the fish in the bucket into the basket, drained the water, and weighed it, thirty-five pounds per tael.
Ding Xiaoxiang offered the same price as last time, 14 yuan and 30 cents per pound. She took a calculator and pressed it a few times, and calculated that the total was 501.93 cents and 502 yuan. .
"You can catch so many fish in one day?"
Ding Xiaoxiang was very surprised. Fishing boats usually don't go far. It's not easy to catch twenty kilograms of fish in the dark, usually ten or eight kilograms. Three to five pounds. Zhao Dahai catches thirty-five pounds per tael, which is not easy.
“There are fish in the sea!”
“Only one can catch so many fish.”
Zhao Dahai didn’t brag that he could catch so many fish every day.
The fish sold to Ding Xiaoxiang and Liu Gang were all caught in one day. I figured out how to see the harvest from running water, but even so, it is impossible to have such a harvest every day. Being able to read flowing water only gives you a chance to catch more fish, but it does not mean that you will definitely be able to catch a lot of fish.
Yesterday, we caught dozens of kilograms of fish in two places. We can still catch fish in these two places tomorrow, but we will never be able to catch as many fish as yesterday.
It’s good to be able to catch half or even a third or a quarter.
Ding Xiaoxiang looked at Zhao Dahai and remembered what she heard under the banyan tree in the village a few nights ago. She was a little embarrassed to ask, but she wanted to know, so she hesitated for a while before speaking.
“Huh?!”
"Someone is playing matchmaker for me? And it's from your village?"
"How is this possible?"
"There is no such thing!"
Zhao Dahai was frightened. One jump, confused.
“Hmph!”
"No such thing? The person who wants to be a matchmaker for you is a man named Jiang Shiyan from my village."
"Ma Hongyu is from your village, right?"
"That's Jiang Shiyan. I asked Ma Hongyu about you!"
After Ding Xiaoxiang finished speaking, she realized that something was wrong with her tone, and her face became hot and red.
“Hey!” “I really don’t know what’s going on! Ma Hongyu is indeed from my village. I have a good relationship with her husband Lei Da.”
"Is it because my grandma is messing with the rules? Or something else?"
"I have to ask when I get back."
......
"How old am I now? Why did I get married so early?"
"I don't have a few cents in my pocket. I only have an old house."
"You can't let someone marry into the house and enjoy the northwest wind, right?"
"Work hard and earn money for a few years. "
......
Zhao Dahai was thinking that the person he wanted to marry was Ding Xiaoxiang who was standing in front of him. He had to take a strict stance and there could be no misunderstandings.
"I think you're right. You can't let people get married and enjoy the northwest wind. It's better to make a few more years of money before thinking about getting married."
Ding Xiaoxiang nodded and heard what Zhao Dahai said. , he seemed relieved.
“Huh!?”
“That’s right!”
“Have you ever cared about this?”
Zhao Dahai looked at Ding Xiaoxiang standing in front of him and couldn't help but want to tease her.
"How do I care about you? I just happened to hear about such a thing and saw you, so I asked. You hurry up! My mother will be here soon!"
< br>Ding Xiaoxiang's face suddenly turned red, she shook her head in denial, and she didn't know where to put her hands and feet.
“Okay!”
“I’m leaving!”
"Come back another day!"
Zhao Dahai knew that Ding Xiaoxiang's face was tender and that it was enough to cultivate her feelings slowly. He was not in a hurry and left with the empty bucket.
Ding Xiaoxiang watched Zhao Dahai walk out quickly and touched her earlobe. It was as hot as boiling water.
“Hmph!”
“Who cares about you? I just happened to meet you and ask!”
Ding Xiaoxiang muttered and tidied up the black sea bream that she had just collected. They were four or two fish that were not big in size but were still alive in the fishing mouth. The fish market was very easy to sell. Put enough water in the big basin. Put all the fish in and test the water temperature. , added two blocks of ice, turned on the oxygen machine, and the fish of more than 30 kilograms was sold out at the dinner market.
Zhang Li was carrying her lunch box and saw a large plastic basin in front of the stall, holding dozens of kilograms of black sea bream for oxygenation.
"Yo!"
"Putting away the fish again!?"
Zhang Li shouted and handed the lunch box to Ding Xiaoxiang.
Ding Xiaoxiang felt a little guilty. Zhao Dahai had just left and didn't say anything. He just nodded, took the lunch box, opened it and ate.
Zhang Li pulled up a stool and sat down. She looked at the big basin in front of the stall and frowned. She felt something was wrong, but she immediately figured out what it was.
“How much did you charge?”
……
“Fourteen yuan and thirty cents?”
"This price is a bit high!"
"Didn't I tell you last time that we can't offer such a high price?"
......
Zhang Li was stunned. For a moment.
Said last time?
That’s right!
I did say this last time!
Zhang Li now understood why she felt something was wrong - she already felt something was wrong last time, but she just didn't understand it.
Ding Xiaoxiang has harvested a lot of fish recently, all while she was away, and the prices were a bit high. In the past few times, I thought it was Ding Xiaoxiang who was inexperienced and charged a high price. Now that I think about it carefully, This cannot be the case.
Ding Xiaoxiang started selling fish at a stall with him when he was twelve years old. He was very shrewd and had a sharper tongue than himself. No one who bought or sold fish took advantage. Is it possible that the asking price is too high?
Ding Xiaoxiang deliberately set a higher price!
Zhao Dahai!
It must be Zhao Dahai!
Zhao Dahai took advantage of him to leave the stall to sell fish and seduce his daughter.
Zhang Li suddenly thought of Zhao Dahai, her face turned ugly, and she was filled with anger. She turned around and glared at Ding Xiaoxiang. She was about to ask, but immediately thought that this was not possible. If asked now, Ding Xiaoxiang would definitely deny it.
"Mom!"
"Did you?"
Ding Xiaoxiang was eating her rice, and Zhang Li turned her head and stared, her heart skipping a beat.
“It’s okay!”
“Let’s see if you’ve finished eating!”
Zhang Li forced a smile on her face.
“How can it be so fast!?”
“I’m not a pig, I can finish so much food in five minutes!”
Ding Xiaoxiang shook her head.
“Eat slowly!”
"Don't be in a hurry!"
Zhang Li made up her mind. She will have to change the time next time and catch the current situation. Ding Xiaoxiang has nothing to say. The key is to teach Zhao Dahai a lesson. The brat wants to eat swan meat. There is no such good thing in the world.
Ding Xiaoxiang complained secretly. I clearly noticed something was wrong. She must have guessed that Zhao Dahai was selling this fish. I don’t know where the problem was. I wanted to make it clearer when I wanted to see Zhao Dahai last time. You can only sell fish at a certain time or sell it to others. You have to be careful, but I forgot to mention the matchmaking thing just now.
Zhang Li and Ding Xiaoxiang were thinking about their own things. For a while, neither of them spoke, only the oxygen machine was bubbling.
