Chen Zhiyao was very excited when she felt that the fifth crab cage was much heavier than the previous ones.

But the next second, when she saw what was inside, the smile on her face faded.

There were quite a lot of things in the cage, but they were not big crabs. Instead, there were several octopuses and a lot of leftover crab legs and crab shells.

In addition, there were several kilograms of worthless smallmouth bass.

Looking at these thick crab legs, Chen Zhiyao felt heartbroken. Her big blue crab was eaten by these octopuses.

Octopus is not very valuable, and everyone feels it is a pity. Looking at the size of the crab legs, the original blue crab should have been quite big.

As soon as the sixth crab cage was taken out of the water, everyone was surprised to find that it was full of little green dragons.

There were four small green dragons weighing more than one jin, and the remaining seven smaller ones weighed about seven or eight liang.

These little blue dragons alone weigh almost 10 kilograms, and they made everyone so happy.

Grandma Chen happily made a special bucket for them, and put a lot of small fish in it to feed them.

On Chen Zhiyao's side, she pulled up the remaining four crab cages in one go.

The harvest was pretty good, mostly big crabs weighing more than half a pound.

Blue crabs, orchid crabs, red flower crabs and king crabs, each weighs several kilograms.

This voyage was a fruitful one.

At this time, everyone's face was filled with the joy of a good harvest, and they couldn't wait to go back and exchange their catch for small coins.

The weather is nice today, with no wind or waves on the sea.

A few hours later, the Chen family's Ping An returned smoothly to the town's dock.

Fishing boats were heading towards the dock one after another, and the sea breeze was filled with a strong fishy smell.

As more and more fishermen returned with their good harvests, the dock, which had been quiet for four months, became bustling again.

At this time, the dock was not only home to many fishing boats of various sizes, but also to groups of busy people shuttling back and forth.

As soon as the savvy fishmongers saw the familiar fishing boats approaching the shore, they rushed to greet them.

Next, bargain with the fishermen to buy the freshest and highest quality catch.

The buyers from various seafood hotels appear to be more professional.

They carefully check the quality and type of each batch of fish, and then select the appropriate fish according to the needs of their own hotel.

As for those large fishing boats, before they have even completely docked, familiar fishmongers have already gathered around them, scrambling to buy the abundant catches on board.

Walk a little further and you will see a small seafood market.

The ground was filled with all kinds of freshly caught fish, all of which were alive and kicking.

Extra large shrimps, huge crabs with bared claws and fangs, plump sea bass, colorful conchs...the dazzling array of seafood is dazzling.

There was a constant stream of people coming to buy seafood, and the seafood stalls were packed with people.

They may be preparing a sumptuous seafood dinner for their family, or planning to bring these delicacies back to give to relatives and friends.

Everyone was very busy, some were carefully selecting their favorite ingredients, while others were enthusiastically discussing prices with the stall owners.

For a moment, the sounds of shouting and bargaining were heard one after another, and the whole dock was bustling and lively!

The dock was particularly busy today, and the Chen family's Ping An almost had no room to dock.

Manager Yang of the seafood hotel is very busy today and has no time to come and collect the fish.

However, he had already ordered two of the largest red grouper and two of the largest bluefin bream from Chen Weiqiang.

In addition, the several large conches and the more than ten kilograms of small green dragon that were picked up today were also all taken by him.

The two of them have already agreed that Chen Weiqiang will take him to the hotel later.

There's nothing we can do about it. It's because Manager Yang gave us a high price.

In addition to these top-quality seafood left behind, the remaining fish were quickly moved off the boat by Chen Zhiyao and others.

While waiting for Boss Xiao Yang to come over, Chen Zhi and Chen Weiqiang went to the seafood stall next door to inquire about the prices of seafood today.

The big croakers are 10 yuan per catty, and the small ones are 6 yuan per catty; the big blue crabs are 60 yuan per catty, and the small ones are 45 yuan per catty; the big red flower crabs are 75 yuan per catty, and the small ones are 50 yuan per catty.

Sea bass is 42 yuan per catty, pearl grouper is 45 yuan per catty, blue grouper is 55 yuan per catty, sesame grouper is 88 yuan per catty...

The prices of these seafood seem quite high, but these are retail prices. Compared with the prices during the fishing ban period, they have obviously dropped significantly.

Although they knew that the sea had reopened and there was no shortage of seafood in the market, the huge gap still made the father and daughter a little unhappy.

Compared to the people who came happily to buy seafood, Chen Zhiyao and her daughter seemed much quieter.

When the two came back, they found that their catch was surrounded by many fishmongers and hotel buyers.

Baskets of fresh fish, especially those groupers weighing more than six or seven kilograms, immediately attracted other fishmongers on the dock.

When these people saw so many big groupers, their eyes lit up as if they had seen stunning beauties.

"Wow, there are so many good stuff!"

A middle-aged man with dark skin came over and after looking at a few baskets of fish, a look of satisfaction appeared on his face.

Other fishmongers also came forward, ready to divide up the several thousand kilograms of fish.

The purchasing station was quite busy today, so Yang Jiajun arrived a little late. Unexpectedly, he almost got robbed.

Seeing that the Chen family’s catch was being targeted by other fishmongers, he pushed through the crowd with an anxious look on his face.

Then he greeted Chen Weiqiang and others in a familiar manner:

"Uncle Chen, Grandpa Chen, and a few pretty ladies, let's go back to the store and discuss in detail. The price and everything else can be negotiated."

Other fishmongers also knew that the Chen family had always cooperated with the Yang family, but when they saw so many good goods, they naturally didn’t want to miss out.

So these fishmongers all extended olive branches and offered higher prices than the last.

Seeing this scene, Yang Jiajun rubbed his hands nervously and looked at Chen Weiqiang with a simple face:

"Uncle Chen, we have been working together for half a year. You know my character, so my price must be the highest."

In fact, Chen Weiqiang was silently calculating the quotes from other fishmongers, but in the end he felt that Yang Jiajun's offer was the most realistic.

He looked at his daughter and father, then said with a smile:

"Okay, okay, but Boss Xiao Yang, you have to give me a good price."

Hearing this, Yang Jiajun heaved a sigh of relief and immediately said with a smile:

"Uncle, don't worry. You don't know what kind of person I am. I will definitely not treat you unfairly."

Under the distressed gazes of the other fishmongers, Chen Zhiyao and the others transported all the catches to the Yang family's purchasing station.
