Chapter 868 Sell the fish? I can't even get in the door!
Ten o'clock in the morning.
Zhao Dahai woke up and sat up slowly, stretching his hands and feet.
He had been running two trips to the artificial islands and reefs in the past few days, and he was indeed a little tired. However, after a nap, he felt much more energetic and his physical strength was fully restored.
Zhao Dahai walked out of the yard and saw his grandmother Zhong Cuihua and his second grandmother Huang Jintao sitting in the yard and talking quietly, so he walked over to say hello.
Zhong Cuihua pointed to the kitchen and said that there were cooked meals in it. After eating, he should call Ding Xiaoxiang to see if there was anything he could help with and not stay at home.
Zhao Dahai immediately walked into the kitchen, finished his breakfast quickly, made a few calls, and finally called Hongyun Restaurant to find Liu Lei. Only then did he know that Ding Xiaoxiang had gone to Hongyun Restaurant to pay the bill early in the morning, and was now in the open space behind the restaurant with Yang Qin.
Zhao Dahai rode his motorcycle and told his grandmother Zhong Cuihua and his second grandmother Huang Jintao that he would not come back for lunch at noon, and might not come back at night. If he did not come back at night, he should call.
"Didn't Zhao Dahai's child just come back from the sea? Why don't you rest at home for a while?"
Huang Jintao watched Zhao Dahai leave on his motorcycle, and he disappeared for a while.
"Isn't it enough to sleep from last night until now?"
"Xiaoxiang has been so busy lately."
"Zhao Dahai is back this time. If he doesn't go out to sea to fish, he must be in charge. What's the point of staying at home and sleeping all day!"
Zhong Cuihua reached out and patted the big head of the little black girl lying at her feet. Zhao Dahai has been busy recently. He has been going out to sea to fish one after another. Each trip takes a long time and is really very tiring. But Ding Xiaoxiang is not idle either. She has to take care of many things inside and outside. Compared with Zhao Dahai, she is even more busy. If Zhao Dahai has been out to sea, there is nothing to say. He has come back and slept for another night. He must help Ding Xiaoxiang with some work.
"Even if there is nothing to do, the two children need to spend more time together, and there is nothing to do at home."
"Do you have to look after me?"
Zhong Cuihua laughed as she spoke. She didn't know if there was anything to do, but she felt that Zhao Dahai and Ding Xiaoxiang needed to spend more time together, otherwise Zhao Dahai would have to go out to sea again in two days.
Huang Jintao nodded, it was indeed the case.
Zhao Dahai rushed to the town and saw Ding Xiaoxiang and Yang Qin standing at the door of the restaurant from a distance. He stepped on the accelerator and rushed over.
"Why don't you sleep a little longer at home?"
Ding Xiaoxiang complained to Zhao Dahai.
"As soon as grandma saw me wake up, she urged me to come to you after dinner."
Zhao Dahai smiled. What he said was the truth. Now in the eyes of his grandma Zhong Cuihua, his status is far inferior to Ding Xiaoxiang.
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
Ding Xiaoxiang blushed.
"Hey!"
"I say you two are really too much, showing affection right in front of me?"
Yang Qin couldn't help rolling her eyes.
What Zhao Dahai said must be true. Zhong Cuihua must have driven Zhao Dahai out to find Ding Xiaoxiang, but Zhao Dahai was just thick-skinned. He didn't care that she was right next to him and just said it directly. It was clearly showing affection.
"So what?"
"Aren't you and that fat guy Liu Lei like this?"
Ding Xiaoxiang didn't show any weakness at all, and directly replied to Yang Qin. She could say Zhao Dahai, but no one else, including her best friend Yang Qin, could.
Liu Lei heard the voice and walked out of the restaurant quickly to invite Zhao Dahai to the second-floor office for tea.
Zhao Dahai took a sip of tea and asked about tomorrow's ceremony. Everything was ready. No one else was invited this time, and there was not much to do. It was just a small ceremony, and it was done according to the village and the customs.
Zhao Dahai asked Liu Lei about the other fish, shrimps and crabs he had purchased recently.
Liu Lei nodded but shook his head. The fish, shrimps and crabs purchased recently are actually good in terms of total quantity, but not so good in terms of quality.
"Brother Dahai."
"You are back to fish. There is no shortage of top-quality seafood such as grouper, but the others are not so good."
...
"The size of fish, shrimps and crabs is always a little small."
...
Liu Lei was very troubled when talking about this matter. His restaurant relies on these fresh fish, shrimps and crabs. There is no shortage of quantity in recent times, but the size is really not good.
"What can I do? It's good to have fish in this season. If you want big ones, you have to wait until the middle of the year or the second half of the year!"
Zhao Dahai smiled.
This is a bit greedy. It's good to be able to purchase enough fresh fish, shrimps and crabs in this season. It's not so easy to have big ones. .
You have to wait until the second half of the year. The size of fish, shrimps and crabs will be bigger at that time, and as the weather gets colder, the fish, shrimps and crabs will become fatter.
Liu Lei was not unaware of this, but he wanted to do a good job in business, so he definitely wanted the fish, shrimps and crabs to be as big as possible.
"Right!"
"Liu Lei."
"The fish, shrimps and crabs in this season are just like this. There is nothing you can do about it. As long as they are fresh enough, you have to consider one thing. In a few months, there will be a fishing moratorium. At that time, the fish, shrimps and crabs will be closed." The number will be significantly reduced.”
Zhao Dahai reminded Liu Lei that he must plan this matter early.
Liu Lei's brows immediately knitted together. This was what he was most afraid of in a restaurant where he pretended to be a fisherman.
Once the fishing moratorium begins, it lasts for two consecutive months. There are no fishing boats out to sea, only fishing boats. Zhao Dahai's speedboat can definitely go out to sea for fishing, and it can catch a lot of fish, but his restaurant can't It is possible to only sell the fish caught by Zhao Dahai, but also other fish, shrimps and crabs.
"What can be done about this? We can only see what we can do then!"
Liu Lei thought about it for a long time but couldn't come up with any good solution. He could only put it aside and find time to talk to his father, Liu Gang, about this matter later to see how it was handled in previous years. He really had to plan ahead and think about it in advance. Think about this.
Zhao Dahai and Ding Xiaoxiang drank tea with Yang Qin for a while in Liu Lei's office and saw that it was almost noon. They originally wanted to go somewhere else to eat, but Liu Lei and Yang Qin definitely wouldn't let them go.
Zhao Dahai and Ding Xiaoxiang had dinner at Hongyun Restaurant at noon. They called Zhang Li and they would send food to them shortly.
After Zhao Dahai and Ding Xiaoxiang finished eating, they left Hongyun Restaurant and went to the fish market with the packed meals in hand.
"Aunt."
"Big sister-in-law and second sister-in-law."
Zhao Dahai greeted Zhang Li immediately when he saw Chen Miaomiao and Zhang Qi, and put the food in his hand on the table.
"Why don't you rest more at home? I'm so tired after going to sea for the past few days."
Zhang Li saw Zhao Dahai and knew that he must have come to look for Ding Xiaoxiang a long time ago.
"Not tired, not tired."
"Okay, just take a nap!"
Zhao Dahai smiled and shook his head. He was in good health. Even though he was very tired when he went to sea, he would be fine if he came back and slept.
Zhao Dahai didn't stay long. He knew that Zhang Li, Chen Miaomiao and Zhang Qi still had to eat. It would be inconvenient for him to stay here all the time. After chatting for a few minutes, he left with Ding Xiaoxiang.
"Aunt!"
"We sold a lot of sea bass this morning!"
Zhang Qi watched Ding Xiaoxiang and Zhao Dahai leave, and thought of the sea bass sold in the morning. Some of them were sent back the day before, and the rest were sent back yesterday afternoon. If added together, today More than 1,500 kilograms of sea bass were sold in one morning. The vigorous sea bass does not need to be big. The two, three or three to five kilograms are very easy to sell. The whole fish market is really unique, and the others are not like that. There isn't even one, but most of them are chilled. Even if they are fed, there are only three or five.
No matter what kind of business you do, exclusive business is the best.
"Sea bass alive like this are really in demand!"
Chen Miaomiao has been helping with business here for more than one and two months, and has gradually become familiar with the market. The business of Ding Jie's fish stall is really very good, and the fish, shrimp and crabs sold every day are very good. A lot, but this is the sum of all kinds of fish, shrimps and crabs. It is really not easy to sell so much of a single kind of fish.
"Almost 100% of the seabass caught by nets or trawled are dead and can only be kept fresh."
"Other speedboats that go fishing at sea catch a lot of sea bass, but these have often been sold to collectors and are rarely sold to stalls here in the market."
"That's why there are so many fish stalls here, but not many sell strong sea bass, and some seem to only have a few."
"If Zhao Dahai hadn't caught these sea bass and only came back in the afternoon, we wouldn't have had such a chance."
Zhang Li was a little proud. Even if the sea bass is alive, it is difficult to sell it in places like the fish market, but the live sea bass weighing two to three pounds is really easy to sell, because it tastes more delicious. , the other price is not too high, and the soup is very delicious if you are alive.
People who grew up by the sea want this soup.
There are not many fish like this at other fish stalls. Only our own fish stall sells hundreds or even thousands of catties. It would be strange if they are not popular.
In addition, so many people crowded over to buy sea bass, and by the way, they would also buy other fish, shrimps, crabs, or other fish. People who originally went to other stalls saw so many people surrounding their own stall. Then he would come over and take a look.
These sea bass are not just sold, they are as simple as making money and attracting a lot of customers. In addition, the business of my own stall is already very good, and it becomes even better this time.
"Aunt!"
"This sea bass really has to be sold here. It can never be sold to other buyers. We can make more money by selling it here."
Chen Miaomiao was a little uneasy. These sea bass were selling so well now. If Ding Chongshan or Zhang Li decided to sell them to others, it would mean that the fish stall would lose a lot of income. He and Zhang Qi are here to help now. If they don't make much money, that is not a good thing. They and Zhang Qi definitely hope that the fish stalls in the fish market can make more money.
"How is this possible? I can't even take away these sea bass even if I'm here!"
"The sea bass was not collected by Ding Chongshan, but caught by Zhao Dahai."
"Is it possible that I can't sell the daughter I raised and the fish my son-in-law caught?!"
Zhang Li is very determined. This matter is really of no use to anyone. Even if the purchasers pay a higher price, it is impossible to take away the sea bass caught by Zhao Dahai. No matter what, it must be put aside. You can only sell it here at the fish market.
Zhang Qi and Chen Miaomiao breathed a sigh of relief. These sea bass are so popular. If Zhang Li is making up her mind now, then the matter is a certainty. The two of them can't talk at home now.
Zhang Li, Chen Miaomiao and Zhang Qi took a break after eating. They had to start business again at three or four in the afternoon. The stall was very profitable now. The three of them worked hard to sell more fish. make money.
The sun was hanging overhead, and the pier was very hot at eleven or twelve noon.
Ding Chongshan picked up the teapot and poured the hot tea he had just brewed into He Ying, who was sitting opposite him.
"Boss He."
"This matter is really non-negotiable. It's not that I don't want to sell it to you, but these fish are different from other fish, but there is no way to sell them to you."
Ding Chongshan had a little headache.
The small sea bass that Zhao Dahai had caught in the past few days were all sent to the dock and sold to him.
This matter has just begun. Some acquirers who have cooperated with me for many years have very sensitive noses. I don't know how the news spread, but they seem to know everything at once.
This is what He Ying came to talk to today.
"Why can't you sell it to me? Sea bass of this size is just right. It is very easy to sell in the market. The price can be discussed. We are all business people. If you can make money, I can make money. Only then can the business be done.”
He Ying took a sip of tea.
"Boss He."
"We have been doing business for many years and are old acquaintances."
"But I know very well what kind of person I am. These fish are not collected from other people's hands."
"My future son-in-law went out to fish."
"Otherwise, how could these fish come back in the afternoon or even evening?"
"If it's really the fish I purchased, it must be sold wholesale."
"There's really nothing we can do now!"
"The mother-in-law spoke up and said that these fish were caught by her son-in-law and must be left to her to sell. Now these fish are not wholesaled and are all sold at my stall at the fish market in the town!"
"If I really sell these fish to you or another boss, I won't even be able to get in when I get home!"
Ding Chongshan told the truth that he really couldn't do this. Zhang Li had made it clear to him several times that if he sold these fish, he really wouldn't be able to go home.
