After Entering the Book, She Became Rich in the 1980s

Chapter 24: Encountering a scammer who deliberately lowers the price

As soon as Jiang Xia's boat docked, everyone screamed in surprise when they saw baskets of gargi fish filling the boat.

"Have you encountered a school of gargi fish? You're going to make a fortune!"

"Brother, in which sea area did you encounter a school of gargi fish? You are so lucky! We also met the gargi fish that are so difficult to see!"

"The amount of fish in this boat is several hundred kilograms, right? It's almost a thousand yuan! I'm going to make a fortune!"

"I'm going to make a fortune, I'm going to make a fortune!"

…

People around were standing on the pier or on their boats watching the excitement.

Zhou Chenglei said to Zhou's father: "I'll go to the dock to see if there is any dealer who has received the goods."

Father Zhou nodded.

At this time, several people squeezed out from the onlookers: "Which boat caught the gargi fish? Let's see!...Oh my god! So many!"

As he said that, he pushed through the crowd and jumped into Zhou Chenglei's boat. He also touched the fish in the basket, opened it, and took a look at the gills: "This fish is dead, but it's still fresh."

Jiang Xia corrected: "It's very fresh. It's not a fish from a trawl net. It was still alive and kicking when we pulled it onto the boat. We caught it and returned immediately."

A man in a white shirt also got on the boat and said directly: "Brother, I want this Gaji fish! I am Xu Wen'an, the manager of Futai Restaurant, how can I sell this fish?"

It's a good day today. The restaurant hosted a wedding banquet for several families, but they happened to be short of fish.

Gargi fish is red and has a festive name, so it is perfect for wedding banquets.

"Damn it, Manager Xu, I got on the boat first, why are you so unkind!" the guy who just came on said dissatisfied.

Then he pulled Zhou Chenglei over, pointed to two baskets of fish of different sizes and said: "Brother, my name is Yang Dayou, and I am also a fish collector. The big ones cost 80 yuan a load, and the small ones cost 60 yuan a load. I'll take it! I'll take it all for ten yuan."

Fish are sold here, either by the catty or by the load, depending on the quantity. Generally, one load weighs about one hundred kilograms.

In other words, Yang Dayou's price is only 80 cents and 60 cents per catty.

Everyone on the pier knows Yang Dayou and knows that he is a Zhou Bapi. Every time he sees an unfamiliar fisherman come to sell fish, he always offers a low price.

But no one spoke up. Destroying someone's financial resources is similar to killing their parents. No one will cause trouble.

Jiang Xia didn't know the price. She had a gut feeling that this person was dishonest. He deliberately disliked her fish and wanted to lower the price. He looked around and was full of calculations.

She didn't understand and said nothing, looking at Zhou Chenglei and Zhou's father.

Jiang Xia didn't know the price, but Zhou Chenglei and Zhou's father knew that this person's price was low!

Zhou Chenglei hated dealing with this kind of people and said directly: "I won't sell it!"

The pile of trash fish on the boat cost more than ten yuan.

Although the fish in the two nets were miscellaneous fish, there were many good ones at first glance, but I didn’t have time to pick them out.

At this time, the restaurant manager said: "Comrade, do you want to sell the fish weighing about one kilogram or more at 100 yuan per load, and the one and a half kilogram at 120 yuan per load? In addition, I want ten more fish weighing more than 2 kilograms." "

The bigger the fish, the more expensive it is. But for a restaurant to hold a banquet, a fish of about one pound is the most cost-effective for the restaurant. It will not look too small or too big. If it is too small, it will look stingy. If it is too big, it will be used for a banquet. There is no profit left.

So he only wants one pound and one and a half pounds. In addition, I need to put ten more two or three kilograms in the refrigerator, so that they can be eaten by ordinary individual customers when the time comes.

Jiang Xia knew that a load was about 100 kilograms, which was less than 1 yuan per kilogram. It was really cheap.

This is a wild sea bream.

However, the current prices are like this. People's wages are only thirty or forty yuan a month. Thinking about it, one yuan per pound is not cheap anymore.

The shop owner glared at the restaurant manager: "Why are you setting such random prices? One hundred yuan per load is too expensive! Don't ruin the market! It can only be ninety yuan per load at most! Even if they don't sell it! Let's go!" Xu Wen'an He asked for a small fish, and the price was so expensive. The bigger the fish, the more expensive it was. How could he lower the price later?

Yang Dayou winked hard at Xu Wen'an and pulled him away.

Jiang Xia glanced at Yang Dayou and said calmly: "It's easy to leave, but I won't send you away!"

Yang Dayou: "..."

Xu Wen'an didn't move. Jiaji fish was rare. He asked Jiang Xia: "Do you want to sell it?"

Jiang Xia: "Ask my lover, he has the final say."

The word "lover" swept through Zhou Chenglei's heart like a feather. He couldn't help but glance at Jiang Xia, but he didn't speak.

At this time, another dealer squeezed onto the boat: "I heard there is gargi fish? I'll take it! I'll take it! What's the price?"

Zhou Chenglei thought that Father Zhou said that these two days are good, and many people hold weddings on good days. Jiaji fish is the most suitable for holding weddings. The name is nice and festive. He said directly: "A pound of about one hundred and ten yuan per load , one hundred and thirty yuan for half a pound, one hundred and sixty yuan for two pounds, two yuan for more than three pounds, only one piece for more than four pounds, which of you wants this price? No bargaining!”

Jiang Xia added: "Our load of fish is definitely more than 100 kilograms, and it is at least 105 kilograms after removing the skin."

Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!

Jiang Xia moved each basket of fish and knew how heavy it was when he held it.

Zhou Chenglei glanced at Jiang Xia when he heard this. She actually knew?

The restaurant was waiting for the fish to be cooked. Xu Wen'an was in a hurry. The price was not too high and he could accept it. He immediately said: "Okay, I want it. I want both the one pound and one and a half pound, and the two pound." I want ten pieces, and I’ll take the three-pound and four-pound ones.”

It's rare to encounter such an auspicious fish, so it's perfect for a banquet. The most important thing is that it costs ten yuan a load, so a fish costs less than a dime. A restaurant can earn half or more from a dish, which costs only a dime. Nothing.

The people who come to the restaurant to eat are all rich people. Rich people like to be extravagant and like big fish. Fish weighing three to four kilograms is very popular.

For example, if you charge 2 yuan per catty for fish weighing more than 3 kilograms, it will become about 4 to 5 yuan per catty after it is served in the restaurant. It is definitely not a loss.

The man in the back was named Hou, and everyone called him Lao Hou or Hou Ye. When he saw that the fish was very fresh and could be stored, he said: "Then I want all the rest, and I want your mackerels too!"

Yang Dayou was upset, but he still did the math. He could still make a profit by reselling the goods. He could make a profit by just one or two cents per catty. The bigger the quantity, the more he would make. However, two competitors came and failed to take advantage. He just wasn't willing to make a fortune.

This boat of people is very unfamiliar, I have never been here before.

He glared at the traitor who came from behind: "Lao Hou, I came first, don't take it away, I want the rest!"

Lao Hou glanced at him: "I heard people say they won't sell it to you!"

This old Yang always wants to eat raw and bully those fishermen who are unfamiliar to him and come from other places. Not every fisherman is honest and can be bullied!

The young man on the boat looked like he was no ordinary man. He was probably a soldier who came back from vacation to help his family fish.

Yang Dayou: "..."

Zhou Chenglei said to Lao Hou and Xu Wen'an: "There is also a large yellow croaker in the living cabin. Do you want it? It's about a few hundred kilograms."

Their eyes lit up and they both said, "Yes!"

Yang Da felt regretful when he heard that there was also a large yellow croaker, "I want it, I want it! I want the large yellow croaker, and the price is negotiable. Comrade, you have the final say on the price! You have the final say!"

What kind of bad luck did this ship have?

Did you catch so many good fish?

If I had known he wouldn't have lowered the price in the first place!

These two days have been good, many people are holding weddings, and there is no need to worry about selling fish such as gargi fish and large yellow croaker with good colors and good looks.

I discussed it with the editor yesterday and this article will be on the shelves on June 1st!

I hope that those who like this article will give me your support.

Thank you~, I will write it carefully!
