It is now the fishing ban period, so the ordinary seafood is still available, but the top-quality wild seafood is relatively scarce.

Lin Xuan heard that someone went out to sea to catch a large yellow croaker the day before yesterday, so he came to the dock today to hang out and see if he could be lucky enough to catch two large yellow croakers.

Unexpectedly, I didn’t catch the yellow croaker, but I got the zebra shrimp.

In order to avoid the fishmongers at the dock, Lin Xuan specially arranged for the father and daughter to meet at a fruit shop in front of the dock.

When Chen Zhiyao got out of the car, she saw Lin Xuan leaning against the car door playing with his cell phone.

"Hello, Manager Lin!" As he said that, he took out two buckets of water from the trunk of the car.

The bucket on the left contained a 5-pound giant eel and a zebra shrimp, and the other bucket contained seven or eight large crabs weighing more than half a pound.

Chen Weiqiang on the side also skillfully carried down the various fish caught today.

Lin Xuan half-knelt and carefully examined the fish that Chen Zhiyao brought. He made sure they were all wild before starting to quote the price.

"This zebra shrimp looks to be about 460-90 taels, so it's 85 yuan per catty. This conger eel is also a decent size, so it's yuan per catty. Orchid crabs and blue crabs weighing more than half a catty are all yuan per catty."

Although this price is not as high as the retail price, it is higher than the price at the purchasing station, and the two quickly reached an agreement.

斑马皮皮虾0.9斤,总共414块。海鳗5.2斤,总共468块。兰花蟹和青蟹一共4.6斤,总共391块。

The total profit from these things was 1273 yuan.

After transferring the money, Lin Xuan looked at Chen Weiqiang's catch again and said:

"Sea bass is 50 yuan per catty, and stone bass is 120 yuan per catty. I want both of them."

This price is much higher than that of the purchasing station, and Chen Weiqiang is very satisfied.

"No problem, I'll do as you say, Manager Lin."

The sea bass weighed 26 jin, for a total of 1300. The stone nine fish weighed 2.3 jin, for a total of 276 pieces.

Chen Weiqiang earned a total of 1576 yuan from sea fish.

At this time, Chen Weiqiang still had half a bucket of white pomfret and several turbots.

On Chen Zhiyao's side, there were also more than 20 kilograms of small seafood such as conchs and shellfish.

Seeing that the two of them had a decent amount of seafood left, Lin Xuan suggested to them:

"Isn't there a night market nearby? Why don't you take the remaining seafood there and sell it retail? At least you can make a few hundred dollars more than if you sell it to those fishmongers."

The father and daughter thought so too. They thought that if they went out to sea frequently and caught a lot of fish, they could set up a stall by themselves with just a few leftovers.

It's a good idea to earn a little more.

The two of them did what they said, and after Lin Xuan left, they immediately came to the night market near the pier.

The night market was just starting to get lively and there weren't many people, so the father and daughter quickly found an empty spot and set up their stall.

In front of Chen Zhiyao were various shellfish and conchs, as well as a few smaller crabs.

There were two buckets in front of Chen Weiqiang, which contained many lively white pomfret and turbot.

The two men bowed their heads and spoke a few words, and finally set the price at about 1.4 times the purchase price, and then began to shout:

"I just picked up all kinds of conchs and shellfish from the beach and I'm selling them at a low price. Ladies and gentlemen, come and have a look!"

"Fresh fish just caught from the sea, turbot, white pomfret~"

It is still the fishing ban season, and wild seafood is not common. As soon as I shouted a few words, people gathered around.

A fashionable young girl walked up to the stall, pointed at the white pomfret in the bucket and asked:

"How much is this white pomfret?"

Chen Weiqiang quickly replied: "Beauty, this white pomfret is 55 yuan per pound."

The woman curled her lips: "So expensive? Normally it's only 40 yuan."

Chen Weiqiang explained with a smile: "It's the fishing ban period now, and the price of seafood has increased. I just caught this from the sea, so it's absolutely fresh."

The girl looked at them and finally picked out two big white pomfret.

"2.7 jin, a total of 148.5 yuan. Beauty, you are the first customer of the stall, so I charge you 1 yuan."

Then, a mechanical voice came from the phone:

"The payment is 145 yuan."

At this time, a middle-aged woman in plain clothes stopped in front of Chen Zhiyao:

"Little boss, how much are the clams and snails?"

Finally, there is a guest. Chen Zhiyao immediately responded enthusiastically:

"Auntie Liang, clams are 15 yuan per pound, and conches are 60 yuan per pound."

Seeing that these small seafoods were quite plump, the woman gritted her teeth and picked some clams and snails.

"That's all."

"Okay, 1 jin of clams and 4 jin of conch, a total of 121.5 yuan, 120 yuan for you."

Then, a pleasant mechanical voice sounded from the stall again:

"The payment is 120 yuan."

At this time, a slightly fat middle-aged man came to the stall and asked, "Boss, how much is one pound of turbot?"

"Turbot is 50 yuan a pound."

The man frowned at first, but then he remembered that it was the fishing ban period, so he gritted his teeth and picked one.

"I want the biggest one. Please help me deal with it."

Chen Weiqiang paused as he stretched out his hand towards the bucket, then said apologetically:

"Brother, I was in a hurry to go out today and forgot the tools to kill fish. I'd like to give you a few oysters. Do you think that's okay?"

The man, who was a little unhappy at first, immediately agreed when he heard that oysters were available.

Anyway, the fish needs to be cleaned when I get home, so it’s more cost-effective to give it oysters.

"That's fine. Pick me some bigger ones."

"No problem, this turbot weighs 2 jin, a total of 3 yuan." After weighing it, he put a few oysters of varying sizes into the bag.

People tend to follow the herd mentality. When they see someone coming to buy something, more and more people will come.

"Boss, how much are the tapes?"

"The straps are 5 bucks each."

“What about scallops and spicy?”

"Scallops are 20 yuan per pound, ordinary spicy snails are 38 yuan per pound, and yellow-mouth spicy snails are 45 yuan per pound."

……

Soon, more and more people gathered around, and the father and daughter's seafood stall business became extremely popular.

In about half an hour, most of the seafood brought by Chen Weiqiang and Chen Zhiyao were sold.

At this time, a fat man came over and his eyes fell on the remaining orchid crabs and blue crabs.

"Boss, how much is this orchid crab?"

Seeing that his daughter was too busy, Chen Weiqiang quickly replied:

"65 per pound, orchid crabs and blue crabs are the same price."

"It's too expensive. Your crabs don't look very fresh. Can you make it cheaper?" the man bargained.

"Brother, this is already very cheap. These are wild orchid crabs and blue crabs. They were just caught this afternoon and are very fresh."

The man hesitated for a moment, but finally bought all the remaining crabs.

Chen Zhiyao finally finished her work and neatly packed up the little crabs and weighed them.

"Brother, 2 jin 2 liang, a total of 143 yuan."

The night market became more and more lively, and soon all the seafood was sold out.

Chen Weiqiang and Chen Zhiyao counted their income and immediately showed satisfied smiles on their faces.

These conchs and shellfish were sold for a total of 1340 yuan. Adding the 1273 yuan just now, Chen Zhiyao's total harvest from the sea today was 2613 yuan.

Chen Weiqiang and Yan Shuting sold their catch for a total of more than 3000 yuan.

After a careful calculation, the father and daughter each earned an extra seven or eight hundred yuan.
