My fishing game syncs with reality

Chapter 16 Warmth from Society

The alarm clock rang at five o'clock on time, and Gu Nan twisted around in bed irritably after being woken up.

Lack of sleep is the first thing that makes people easily upset and irritable, especially those who have trouble getting out of bed.

"This can't go on like this, we must recruit employees." Gu Nan obviously still wanted to sleep, but the matter of opening a store was weighing on his mind, and he did not dare to continue sleeping without hesitation.

In the end, he had no choice but to get up, yawned and walked into the bathroom to wash up.

After washing up, we left home and headed to the seafood market.

Today's breakfast is lean meat porridge, a big meat bun and two tea eggs.

Carrying the things into the store, Gu Nan took out the three belly-turned-up Shi Jiugong and placed them on the crushed ice. Gu Nan sat back at the bar and started eating breakfast.

After finishing breakfast and throwing away the trash, I met Ji Jinxin, the boss next door, when I was coming back.

He was very busy these two days, and even though he was next door, he didn't notice Gu Nan's business.

When I see people now, I still do the same thing, asking about other people's pain points: "Hey, Nan came to open the store so early again! In fact, you don't need to, young people should sleep more."

"You don't have much stock in your store right now. What's the use of just a few imported small fish?"

"My imported fish is actually quite easy to sell. The sales volume in the past two days has been very good. I'm planning to ask someone for help." Gu Nan chuckled, ignored him and returned to his store.

But Ji Jinxin froze on the spot: "It's impossible, the shops are all empty, who will buy the fish! Isn't it just trying to be brave?"

With that said, he also walked into Fengnan Aquatic Products, and was startled again when he saw various fish in the fish tank and several small black-striped amberjacks arranged.

I haven’t paid attention to it for two days, why are there suddenly so many fish?

Although the store still looks a bit empty, it is much better than before.

Gu Nan turned around and saw him coming in, and frowned: "Boss Ji, why do you always come to me if you don't open a store yourself?"

"Anan, are these imported fish?"

"It's not imported, did you catch it? Are these fish available in China?"

"These fish look good! Nan, where did you import them from? Please introduce them!" Ji Jinxin has been operating a fish store for decades and has rich experience.

After taking a brief look at the black-striped amberjack, ball nose fish and two species of sea bream, he knew that the quality of these fish was very good.

Although the quantity is not large, if Gu Nan can really sell these fish, there will be no problem in maintaining a good aquatic product store.

In addition, he also had his mind set on these fish.

There is no one selling these fish in the seafood market where they are currently, otherwise he would not recognize them.

So this is a blank area. As long as you accumulate a certain number of customers, there will be no competitive pressure.

In the past, Ji Jinxin often came here to be weird, but the two sides didn't break up after all, so he could say such words shamelessly now.

Gu Nan was also a little confused by his sudden change of attitude.

At the same time, I sighed in my heart, let's do business, sometimes face really doesn't matter, you have to be thick-skinned.

Compared with Ji Jinxin, he still has a lot to learn!

"How do I have any channels? A friend lives in East Africa and likes fishing. When he heard that my aquatic product store could not open, he sent me fish and asked me to try to sell them."

"If it sells well, just tell me to catch more fish and send them to me in the future."

"If I get it from the dealer, can I only get a few of them?"

Gu Nan would not show off his face because of the other person's previous behavior and take the initiative to break up with others. Instead, he would find a reasonable excuse to deceive him.

"In this way, if you really want it, I will ask him to try to collect some from the local fishermen, and then I can share some with you."

Of course, this sentence is also deceptive. Gu Nan would rather sell it to a food stall restaurant at a low price than sell it to him. What I am saying now is that I simply want to be quiet.

I was very busy when I first opened the plug-in. Making money was the most important thing, and I didn’t have time to compete with others.

"Okay, then remember to ask your friend to collect some fish and send it over. But I'm not in a hurry, just take your time." Seeing that Gu Nan really agreed, Ji Jinxin sighed in his heart that this child turned out to be quite kind and simple.

At the same time, I felt a little guilty, as my previous actions seemed quite bad.

Of course, he still kept an eye on him. Don't be in a hurry, just observe Gu Nan's business in the past few days.

If these fish are easy to sell, he will definitely buy some and sell them. If they are not easy to sell, then he will pretend that he has not said this today.

After Ji Jinxin left, Gu Nan shook his head in amusement. In social reality, any devil would show his hypocritical side and pretend to be an angel in front of Mane.

Although Ji Jinxin is not that exaggerated, the nature is similar.

He felt that if there were too many fish to sell in the future, he could sell them to the owner of the store next door to Ji Jinxin at a low price, so that he could feel the warmth from society.

Today is Friday, and there are a lot of people coming to buy seafood in the morning. It is estimated that some children who live on campus will go home at night and prepare a table of delicious dishes for their grandchildren.

No, an uncle walked into the store, looked around, and was immediately attracted by the brightly colored blue-striped sea bream.

"Old man, just take a look. These fish just arrived at night. Look, they are all very energetic." Gu Nan came to him and smiled.

"What kind of fish is this? Why haven't I seen it before?" the uncle asked, pointing at the blue-striped sea bream.

"This is called blue-striped sea bream, and in some places it is also called flower snapper. It is imported from East Africa, and this fish is not found in China."

"Oh~ It turns out they are imported fish." The uncle said oh, then looked at the other fish, and found that he didn't even recognize the live fish in the fish tank.

"You imported all these?"

"Yes, they are all imported from East Africa. These fish are found in the seas from Southeast Asia to East Africa, but they are not available in China. Look at this star chicken fish, which is a kind of rock perch over there. It is suitable for braised in braise and making soup. It tastes delicious in other ways. It’s just a bit worse.”

"This kind of chilled black-striped amberjack, also called black ganache, is a little different from the red ganache we have here. It is only suitable for frying and is more in line with the taste of children."

Gu Nan saw that the uncle was very interested in these fish, but his expression was always hesitant, so he knew what he was worried about.

I probably plan to buy a fish for my grandson or granddaughter to eat, especially these imported ones. I want to let my children eat it if they haven’t eaten it before.

But I am worried that I will be cheated, and the fish will not taste good and my children will hate it.

Gu Nan would introduce the price and eating method of each fish one by one, which made the uncle's favorability towards him rise very quickly.

"So, this snapper fish has tender meat and is delicious in any way?"

"Yes, if you are making it for others, just cater to their taste." Gu Nan nodded and affirmed.

"Okay, let's buy this one." The uncle looked at the three fish in the fish tank and chose the biggest one.

"Okay!" Gu Nan quickly picked up the fishing net, took out the fish, and put it on the electronic scale. "If it's a little more than two catties, let's treat it as two catties. The total is one hundred and sixty yuan."

The uncle nodded, took out his mobile phone, scanned the code, and paid one hundred and sixty yuan.

"Old man, do you want me to kill the fish for you, or do you want to take it back and kill it yourself?"

"I'll take it back myself. My grandson will only come back in the evening. It took too long to kill him in the morning."

"Okay, then I'll give you oxygen and bag it."

Gu Nan filled the bag with oxygen and put another bag on it before handing it to him.

The uncle took a look at the bag, nodded with satisfaction, turned around and left the store.
