Rebirth of Fishing Village: Starting from Hua Axiang in Jiehu Village

Chapter 1039: The fish Zhao Dahai caught? I want as many as I can!
"Ding Xiaoxiang!"

"Just do as you say!"

"I'll pick out the fish I want to keep, and I'll take away the rest when we get back to the dock."

Song Wei nodded. He could only listen to Ding Xiaoxiang. It was impossible to buy all of them.

"correct!"

"Can I sell all the fish I catch to you? Can I get a certain amount of fish every month?"

Song Wei knew very well how high the quality of the fish caught by Zhao Dahai was and how popular they were. He had made a deal on this trip, but he definitely didn't want to just do a one-time deal.

Ding Xiaoxiang shook her head. Song Wei or other people who bought fish, shrimps and crabs must want to buy the fish caught by Zhao Dahai. Usually, she would sell some of these fish, but the quantity was relatively small, and they were all sold through the channels of her father Ding Congshang. This time, she wanted to sell a large number of these fish quickly, so she found Song Wei. Otherwise, it would be impossible for her father to sell these fish.

"Boss Song."

"Wild grouper, especially live grouper or other fish, plus fish caught by mouth, are very expensive in the market and are in great demand."

"Most of the fish Zhao Dahai caught were sold to places like Liu Gang and Liu Lei. There was no price cut between middlemen."

"In this way, Zhao Dahai and I can sell the fish at a higher price, and when Liu Gang and Liu Lei buy the fish, the price can be lower. The quality is guaranteed, and the quantity is guaranteed."

"To be honest, no matter what, the price you offer for these fish can never be compared with that of Liu Gang and Liu Lei. This trip is just a special case."

"I definitely can't promise you that I'll sell you a certain amount of fish every month."

"It's not worth it for me. I don't need to do this."

Ding Xiaoxiang glanced at Song Wei.

Not to mention businessmen, anyone who does something has to consider whether it is beneficial to themselves.

Song Wei wanted to buy the fish that Zhao Dahai had caught, but he could only buy them at the market price. Even if the price was a little higher, it couldn't be much higher. If it was too high, he wouldn't make any money. There was no need for Song Wei to do such a thing.

The situation this time was really special. He wanted to sell the fish in his hands as soon as possible. Another reason was that the price of fish, shrimp and crab was relatively high at this time. Excluding the 30% higher than the market price, Song Wei could still make money. But if it was the usual price, Song Wei would not agree to a 30% higher price.

No matter how you calculate it, there is no way I would agree to such a thing.

Song Wei sighed and scratched his hair helplessly. The grouper and sea bass caught by Zhao Dahai were of very high quality and must be very popular in the market. He wanted to get as much as possible, and even wanted to have a fixed share every month, but Ding Xiaoxiang made it very clear that this was impossible, and he could not refute the reason.

Zhao Dahai and Ding Xiaoxiang could make more money by selling the grouper to Liu Gang, Liu Lei or other people, so why should they sell it to themselves?

"Boss Song."

"to be honest."

"I usually give away some of the groupers I have, but the amount is not stable. Sometimes I give away more, sometimes less."

"The price is definitely not comparable to that sold to Liu Gang and Liu Lei."

"These fish are sold through my dad. If you really want them, you have to discuss it with my dad."

Ding Xiaoxiang pointed at Ding Chongshan.

"Row!"

"I'll discuss this matter with your dad later and see if we can cooperate!"

"The fish Zhao Dahai has caught have become a brand in the industry. Some people specifically want to eat the fish Zhao Dahai has caught."

"Why is Liu Gang and Liu Lei's Hongyun Restaurant doing so well? Isn't it like this?"

Song Wei shook his head as he spoke.

This matter is really hard to understand.

Wild groupers are definitely tastier than farmed ones, but Zhao Dahai is not the only one who can catch wild groupers. Others can catch them, too. Why are the groupers caught by Zhao Dahai so popular, while those caught by others are not as good?

Hongyun Restaurant's business has been very good recently, and its reputation has been established in the circle. When they go out to do business, they often invite guests to dinner. Sometimes those people directly ask to go to Hongyun Restaurant for dinner, and they must eat the grouper caught by Zhao Dahai.

"What's so strange?"

"Don't be fooled by the fact that everyone is fishing for wild groupers or even catching them at the same fishing spot. But Zhao Dahai is very good at fishing now and has made a name for himself."

“We also eat grouper.”

"It doesn't make any difference what you spend. Why not eat the grouper that Zhao Dahai caught?"

When Ding Chongshan heard what Song Wei said, things seemed complicated, but in fact they were not complicated at all. To put it bluntly, Mr. Zhao Dahai was a celebrity.

"All right!"

"It is indeed true. We spend the same money to eat the same fish caught by Zhao Dahai, so the fish caught by others is definitely better."

"Hey!"

"Liu Gang and Liu Lei's Hongyun Restaurant is really taking advantage of the situation. Business is really booming. Sometimes it's even hard to reserve a table."

Song Wei smiled bitterly.

The business of Hongyun Restaurant has always been good, and it has been even better in recent months.

Sometimes I call at the last minute to reserve a table, but I can’t even hear you during the meal.

"No way, is the business of Hongyun Restaurant so good now?"

Ding Chongshan was very surprised. He thought that Hongyun Restaurant must be doing good business, but he didn't expect it to be so good.

"You definitely don't know. Anyway, whenever you want to go to Hongyun Restaurant for dinner, there will definitely be seats available!"

Song Wei pointed at Ding Xiaoxiang.

Liu Gang and Liu Lei bought these fish from Zhao Dahai and Ding Xiaoxiang.

If other people want to go to Hongyun Restaurant, they must reserve a seat or something, but for people like Zhao Dahai, Ding Xiaoxiang or Ding Chongshan, there will always be a seat available as long as they want to go.

“Hahaha!” “Okay okay!”

"That's indeed the case. I'll invite you, Boss Sun, to have a good meal at Hongyun Restaurant some other day."

Ding Chongshan laughed out loud.

Ding Xiaoxiang and Song Wei discussed it and decided to wait for Zhao Dahai to come back from fishing. After resting for five or six hours, the fishing boat would leave here and return to the dock.

But now there is no way to be sure when Zhao Dahai will come back from fishing, so we have to wait a while.

It might be early in the morning, or maybe we have to wait until noon or even afternoon, it all depends on Zhao Dahai. If we catch fish, it will take longer, if not, we will come back early tomorrow morning.

Song Wei was thinking about returning to the dock earlier, but there was nothing he could do about it. Zhao Dahai was out at sea fishing now, so the big fishing boat would definitely have to wait for Zhao Dahai to come back.

Are you urging Ding Xiaoxiang to go back earlier?
This is impossible!
If she really dared to do such a thing, Ding Xiaoxiang would definitely just stop selling fish.

Zhao Shi called out to Ding Dawen loudly and asked him to pick two of the sea bass on the deck and send them to the kitchen to make a few dishes.

Ding Dawen came over, picked out two of the largest and fattest sea bass, and carried them into the kitchen.

The sea bass that has just been caught is very fresh. It is really delicious when used to make soup or seafood porridge.

Song Wei had settled the deal and put his worries aside. Thinking that there might be fish in the sea, he couldn't help himself and took a rod to start fishing. After more than half an hour, he caught two fish, both weighing more than ten pounds.

"Is it true that the sterns of fishing boats are really cold? As long as it's Zhao Dahai's speedboat or Zhao Dahai's fishing boat, you can catch fish no matter where you are?"

Song Wei put down the rod in his hand and wiped the sweat from his forehead. He caught two sea bass weighing more than ten kilograms. The pulling force was very strong and he had a great time. It took him almost twenty minutes to pull the last fish out of the water and it fell to the side of the fishing boat. He was a little out of breath when he scooped it up.

"Is there such a legend in the circle? But it's not surprising. Zhao Dahai's speedboat can definitely catch a lot of fish. But the fact that this big fishing boat can catch fish now has nothing to do with Zhao Dahai."

Shi Guangming smoked the hookah in his hand and told Song Wei that the big fishing boat had been parked at this place for several days. They turned on the lights every night to attract small fish. Another thing was that he and Ding Dawen had been fishing at this place in the past few days. Sometimes they would catch some Antarctic shrimps into the sea, which would attract more small fish. With small fish, big fish would definitely come.

"Don't be fooled by the fact that you caught quite a few sea bass tonight. They are all pretty big, but there aren't too many fish here!"

"I fished here for a few hours last night, but only caught three. It's incredible to catch so many tonight."

"If you continue fishing, you may not be able to catch anything."

Zhao Shishi took a look at the sea bass on the deck. He didn't expect to catch so many. Ding Chongshan, Lin Zuhua and Song Wei had really good luck.

11pm.

The sea breeze began to bring a hint of coolness.

The food cooked in the kitchen began to be brought to the deck one after another.

Ding Chongshan, Lin Zuhua, Ding Xiaoxiang, Zhao Shi, Shi Guangming, Song Wei, and Ding Dawen all gathered together.

There is nothing too particular about the boat. If there are stools, you can sit on them. If there are no stools, you can just sit directly on the deck.

Ding Chongshan and Lin Zuhua did not eat much when they went out to sea. In addition, they had been fishing for a while and had put in a lot of effort, so they were a little hungry and began to eat in big mouthfuls.

"It goes without saying that the food on the fishing boat is really delicious!"

"Isn't it the same chicken? Why do I always feel that the taste here is different from what I eat at home, in hotels, or in restaurants?"

Lin Zuhua grabbed a chicken leg and took a big bite.

"It tastes good only when you are hungry. If you are not hungry, how can you think it tastes good?"

Shi Guangming took a sip of the fish soup.

When it comes to fish, the ones caught on the fishing boats are definitely fresher and definitely taste better, but when it comes to chicken and duck, the ones caught on the fishing boats are definitely not comparable to the ones we eat at home.

Lin Zuhua now thinks that the chicken on the fishing boat tastes better. That means he is really hungry. There cannot be any other reason.

"The soup made from the head of the freshly caught sea bass is really delicious."

"For those of us who grew up by the sea, we don't really need to eat. There's no such thing as expensive fish. As long as it's fresh, even small fish can make delicious soup."

Song Wei and Shi Guangming both picked up the soup bowl and took a sip. The soup made from the head of the sea bass that had just been caught was very delicious. He couldn't help but drink it all in one gulp, and then he immediately earned another bowl of the rest.

"Boss Ding."

"How many days do you plan to fish here?"

Song Wei looked at Ding Chongshan who was sitting opposite him. Ding Chongshan planned to go fishing on this trip out to sea, but he had to talk to Ding Chongshan about the groupers that Zhao Dahai usually sold.

"That's impossible to say."

"It could be three to five days! It could be eight to ten days."

"Ding Jie and Ding Weijun are the ones who took over the family business. There aren't any big problems. I don't need to keep an eye on it every day."

"The number of groupers that Zhao Dahai and Ding Xiaoxiang sold was not too large. Plus, now that they have sold so many at once, they won't buy any more of the fish they caught for at least three to five days or half a month."

"We don't need to rush this matter. Let's discuss it in detail after I finish fishing and return to the company. But I don't think there is any need for you to take these fish."

Ding Chongshan grabbed a shrimp, peeled it and put it into his mouth. What Song Wei wanted to talk to him about were Zhao Dahai and Ding Xiaoxiang. They usually sold some grouper or other fish from time to time. These were all because there were too many on the fishing boats, so they only sold a little bit, and the quantity was not too large.

These fish can definitely make money, and a lot of money, but for Song Wei, there is actually no need to focus on this business.

"I think you are a full man who doesn't know the hunger of a hungry man."

"You are the one who buys fish, shrimps and crabs! Don't you know the reputation of these fish that Zhao Dahai has caught now?"

"Sometimes some people just want the fish that Zhao Dahai caught."

"I buy these fish sometimes to make money, but more often for special customers."

"If I really have the groupers that Zhao Dahai caught, believe it or not, once the news spreads, some people will come to me specifically to ask for these groupers. Sometimes, money or price is not an issue at all."

Song Wei knew that he had to make this matter clear, otherwise Ding Chongshan might not be willing to sell these fish to him. What Ding Xiaoxiang meant was that Ding Chongshan had sold these fish caught by Zhao Dahai for a while, but he had not received any news. If he had known earlier, he would have come to finalize the matter earlier.
