Chapter 68 Raising Fish Prices (Follow-up on Tuesday)

Listen to these two people leaving.

The fishmonger Lao Zhang suddenly became anxious: "You drag it here, and it will take two or three hours to walk by water. By then, the fish will die, and the price will not be sold."

Li Duoyu felt that there was no need to talk too much about their price cuts so hard, so he cranked up the diesel engine on the spot.

"It's okay. I think the price of dead fish at Rongcheng Wharf may be much higher than yours. I'm leaving. If you don't want to buy it, can you go up there?"

Lao Zhang returned to the pier in embarrassment, his brows were knit together, the young man didn't discuss it, he just left.

And the fishmongers on the shore looked at each other a few times, and they all understood that they had encountered difficulties today, and the way of lowering prices might not work for him.

Since there is no way for everyone to make money together.

Then you have to earn it yourself.

A young fishmonger spoke first: "I don't want any other fish, but that big bass is slippery. I'll take it for four cents a catty."

Seeing that this young man doesn't speak martial arts so much.

Lao Zhang jumped directly back to Li Duoyu's sampan, and said with a smile, "If not, I'll give you [-] cents for these red snappers and yellow chickens, and I'll give you [-] cents for this big fish. What do you think?"

Faced with the temptation of money, the tacit understanding among the fishmongers was shattered, and other fishmongers also raised their prices.

"I'll take a catty of five hairs."

"Liu Mao, Liu Mao, this price is already very high, we are all in the same industry, there is no need to mess with each other."

Old Zhang scolded: "You mess with me first, okay? I pay six and a half cents."

"Qi Mao." The young fishmonger shouted.

Chen Wenchao was very excited. He counted with his fingers. If a catty of Qimao is used, this 100 catty perch slide can already be sold for 90 yuan.

His original psychological price was about 50 yuan, but he didn't expect that it would almost double now.

What made Chen Wenchao depressed was that if he came to sell fish today, he would probably be taken for a ride.

But Brother Yu's simple words caused the fishmongers to fight among themselves, and eventually the price skyrocketed.

"I'll offer a piece."

"Whoever robs me again, I will give it to him directly."

In the end, Lao Zhang called out a price that no other fishmongers dared to accept.

"Old Zhang, you can't do it like this."

"It's a bit of a bad market for you, how will everyone collect this kind of fish in the future?"

"If you are so high, you won't make money yourself, and you won't let us make money."

Lao Zhang was too lazy to talk to them, not only bought the squid, but also cleared all the other fish on Li Duoyu's boat.

Immediately afterwards, Lao Zhang took out a wooden scale, and Li Duoyu lifted the perch slide together with him, and then moved the weight.

"125 pounds."

As for these red sea bream and yellow chicken, Lao Zhang directly took them away at a price of five cents, and the rest of the ordinary fish were all taken away at two cents.

In the end, Lao Zhang took out sixteen cards of great unity, and handed them to Li Duoyu with a heartache on his face:

"Alright, it's a real loss to do business with you. Your third uncle Li Zhengfa is not as cruel as you."

After receiving the money, Li Duoyu simply clicked on it, and said with a smile, "I didn't expect that you still know my third uncle."

Lao Zhang sighed: "At this pier, I collect almost all of your third uncle's fish. A few days ago, your third uncle was transporting bamboo with you at the pier."

"Speaking of it this way, we are already acquaintances, and you are still pressing my price like this."

Lao Zhang said with a slightly embarrassed smile: "Everyone in this business has come here like this. When we get to know each other well in the future, we won't press down on your price."

"Don't talk about it, I have to go, or the fish will die, and I will really lose money."

Lao Zhang immediately tied the dragon grouper to his fishing boat, then dumped all the snappers, yellow chickens, etc. into the water tank of his fishing boat, and hurriedly headed towards Rongcheng Wharf.

In the past, when the sale was the most popular, there was no need to bring such rare goods to Rongcheng for sale, and the restaurant owners in the county would come to collect them.

Especially those bosses who come from the inland to buy smuggled goods, who have never eaten seafood before, want to try something new when they come here, and they are very willing to pay for it.

At that time, the seafood business was very easy to do. While suppressing the prices of fishermen, they sold them to restaurant owners at high prices.

Many people have built new houses by reselling seafood, but since the last major cleaning.

The economy of the entire county has been depressed, and [-]% of the restaurants have been closed. It is also very difficult for these fishmongers to do business.

And this kind of big bass is rarely seen every year. It is a rare commodity, but it is not affordable for ordinary people.

The reason why he dared to offer such a high price was because there happened to be a relative who worked as a purchaser in the newly opened foreign trade hotel in Rongcheng.

Some time ago, his relative had revealed to him that as long as it was a rare item by the sea, the hotel would accept it.

What else to say, recently I always receive "devil" inspection groups, they especially like to eat fish such as red snapper and yellow chicken, and often eat them alive and cut up.

And as long as these fish are fresh enough, the hotel will charge a high price. If they are alive, the price can even be doubled. This is why Lao Zhang dared to call for a piece.

Because other fishmongers don't have his channel at all, and if they dare to call this price, they will definitely lose money.

It's a pity that he could have earned two or three times the amount of this order, but after being dealt with like this by everyone, he can only earn a hard fee.

Speaking of it, it's all the fault of that second-hand young man, who is bluffing, who can't make decisions, and who is so excited, let him make a wrong judgment.

After Li Duoyu sold the fish.

Glancing at the thin and dark uncle, remembering the last time he was slaughtered in the county town, he said, "Let's go, I made money today, I'll take you to a restaurant."

Chen Dongqing scolded with a smile: "I've been waiting for you to say this for a long time, at least you have some sharp eyesight."

Li Duoyu took the two of them to a slightly dilapidated small restaurant near the pier.

This restaurant is run by a middle-aged couple. They don't even have a name, and the conditions are only average. The menu is written on the wall with charcoal.

But the business is good. The reason is that this store is very cost-effective and has a lot of seafood. In the big wooden barrel at the door, there are various shellfish, local razor clams, clams, and sea mussels.

Next to it is a large pond made of cement, in which there are some live fish and sea prawns.

When he was selling goods before, he and Agui came back to this restaurant for supper, and he was quite familiar with the husband and wife boss.

After arriving at the restaurant, Li Duoyu found an empty table and shouted to the boss who was busy in the kitchen:

"Old Chen, let me have scrambled eggs with leeks, pork belly with dried bamboo shoots, drunk crabs, fried clams, fried seafood noodles, and finally a dozen beers."

After hearing the sound.

The boss ran out with a cooking shovel, and when he saw Li Duoyu, he smiled and said, "It's ok, so many people have been arrested, and you're fine."

"I received it early, and I just escaped."

Lao Chen, the owner of the restaurant, glanced at them and asked, "By the way, Agui, why didn't you come with me?"

After hearing this.

Everyone's faces became a little ugly, and the boss also noticed something was wrong in an instant, and said quickly: "I'll cook for you first."

 Read it, read it, read it!
