Sea-hunting system: I became rich by fishing at sea

As soon as the croaker was lifted up, all the fishermen around came over excitedly.

Chen Zhiyao first took a photo of Grandpa Chen and the big guy, and then took a beautiful photo of herself with this rare big fish.

Seeing that the grandparents and grandchildren had finished their job, the fishermen around them all rushed to lie down happily and take photos with this big fish. They were as happy as if the fish was caught by themselves.

There are many people fishing on the breakwater almost every day, and fishmongers are often seen collecting fish here.

Suddenly, a tall and thin middle-aged man squeezed in with a smile on his face.

"Mr. Chen, are you selling this croaker?"

Chen Zhiyao didn't know this man, but Grandpa Chen who often came here to fish knew him.

This man is a fishmonger who is here to collect fish.

"Little brother Li, you have to sell this fish, but it's hard to say who you'll sell it to." Grandpa Chen smiled like an old fox.

The fishmonger in front of him smiled sincerely, "I'll offer you 800 yuan, what do you think?"

This was the first time Chen Zhiyao had seen this croaker and she didn’t know the exact price, but the old man knew it.

Although the meat of croaker is not valuable, the fish bladder inside is a good thing.

The purchasing station probably charges 40 yuan per pound, but that's for about ten pounds. For something this size, it would cost at least to yuan per pound.

Moreover, things are valuable because they are rare. Such a large croaker is really hard to find and usually commands a premium.

When the old man heard the price, his face turned black. He thought that this fishmonger was too evil and was simply a profiteer.

Sensing the old man's dissatisfaction, the tall and thin man added:

"Business is difficult. In our line of work, there are actually great risks, and we just make some hard-earned money."

The fishmonger spread his hands helplessly, looking as sincere as he could be.

Since she didn't understand the market situation, Chen Zhiyao didn't say anything and let Grandpa Chen make the decision himself.

Just when the old man was about to refuse, Fishmonger No. 2 appeared.

"It's rare to find such a big croaker. I'll give you 850 yuan."

As soon as he finished speaking, a dark and fat young man squeezed out of the crowd.

“Fatty, I was the first one to see this fish. Do you know the rules?” Fishmonger No. 1 glared angrily.

On their side, there is an unwritten agreement among fishmongers that while others are still negotiating prices, others cannot rush forward to grab business.

However, fishmonger No. 2 was tall and strong, and he was followed by a man who was even stronger than him.

The two men came with great force and were not afraid of him at all. They directly offered a high price to grab the fish.

Fishmonger No. 1 was extremely angry, but he couldn't do anything to them because of his poor fighting skills.

Croaker is very rare here, and they almost never see it whether they go fishing at sea or out fishing. The two fishmongers quarreled over this big croaker and almost came to a fight.

Grandpa Chen quickly separated the two people and asked them to bid with a smile, and the highest bidder would win.

Fishmonger No. 2 made the first move: "I'll offer 850 yuan."

Not to be outdone, fishmonger No. 1 also added 50 yuan, "I'll give you 900 yuan."

"I'll give you 950 yuan."

"I'll give you a thousand."

When Fishmonger No. 1 heard that Fishmonger No. 2 offered one thousand, he got so angry that his face turned red.

He was about to offer a higher price when the tall and strong man next to him pulled his sleeve.

The two men lowered their heads and muttered a few words, and then fishmonger No. 2 glared at the smug fishmonger No. 1 in dissatisfaction:

"I'll give you 1000 yuan, too."

The prices of the two were the same, and the pressure was immediately put on the Chen family's grandparents and grandchildren.

If the price is right, it doesn't matter who I sell it to. The bad thing is that the prices offered by both parties are not very good.

The price was not low, but not high either, and the old man felt a little conflicted.

The grandparents and grandchildren stared at each other, not knowing whether to sell it or not.

Chen Zhiyao suddenly thought of the Yang family purchasing station in the town, and quickly sent the photos and videos she had just taken to Boss Yang.

The reply was very quick, and a video came right after:

As soon as the video was connected, Boss Xiao Yang asked anxiously, "Tangtang, is the croaker in the photo still there?"

"Yes, there are two fishmongers who want to buy my fish, but I don't know the price. I want to ask you, Brother Yang."

Chen Zhiyao smiled with a cute and obedient face, but her eyes were very cunning and smart.

Yang Jiajun on the other end of the phone was also an old fox, and he immediately offered a high price: "I'll offer 1100 yuan."

"Okay, then I'll keep this fish for you, Brother Yang." When Chen Zhiyao heard the price of 1100 yuan, her voice became a little cheerful.

"Are you on the breakwater?" Yang Jiajun saw a large pile of stone piers through the video, which looked very familiar.

“Yes, I’m fishing here.”

"Your sister-in-law is in the store. I'll go over and collect the fish now."

"Okay, then I'll wait for you, Brother Yang, to come over."

Chen Zhiyao did not hide it from others when she answered the video. The two fishmongers next to her could hear it, and both of them looked unhappy.

1100 yuan is an amount they can afford, but if they buy the fish at this price, there is basically no profit.

The two could only turn around and collect other people's catches.

The croaker was so big that it couldn't fit in the bucket, and half of its tail was sticking out.

Grandpa Chen quickly took the oxygenator from his side, hoping that the big guy would be alive and well before Boss Yang came over.

After everyone around her dispersed, Chen Zhiyao started fishing again.

I don’t know if it was because the previous croaker made too much noise and scared away the surrounding fish, but for half an hour, the grandparents and grandson didn’t catch a single fish.

Just when Chen Zhiyao was about to lose her patience, Boss Xiao Yang finally came over.

In addition to the croaker, he also collected other small fish.

"These stonefish are quite big, they are priced at 68 yuan per pound, and golden pomfret is 20 yuan per pound."

The tiger grouper that Grandpa Chen had caught before had been sold, and there were only 5 golden pomfret left in the bucket, weighing a total of 9 kilograms.

20 yuan per pound, a total of 180 yuan.

Including the tiger grouper he had sold before, the old man earned 780 yuan in one day. He felt like his back was straightened a lot and he was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling.

Chen Zhiyao kept two small pomfret weighing more than one kilogram for her own consumption and sold the rest.

The nine-ton fish weighed 1.8 jin, a total of 123 pieces. The golden pomfret weighed 14 jin, a total of 280 pieces.

Together with the 1100 yuan for the croaker, the total revenue was another 1503 yuan.

After selling the fish, the grandparents and grandchildren happily picked up their fishing gear and prepared to go home.

On the way back, Grandpa Chen was still responsible for driving, while Chen Zhiyao was leisurely counting the bills in the back.

If you don’t calculate it, you wouldn’t know that during the few days she was back home, she earned as much as 9,000 yuan.

About 6,000 yuan of it was earned from fishing at sea, and the remaining 3,000 yuan was earned from fishing in the past two days.

Chen Zhiyao's mouth corners turned up wildly, revealing two sweet dimples:

"Wow, I've been back for less than a week and I've already made more money than I did in the previous month."

After calculating the income during this period, Chen Zhiyao has decided not to return to Guangzhou and will stay at home to go fishing.

However, she has not yet moved out of the house she rented in Guangzhou, so she needs to find a time to go back and check out.

And she hadn't cleaned up the room full of clothes and miscellaneous items.

Chen Zhiyao felt a headache when she thought about moving.
