Chapter 8 Never Fool You
Haichen Town, located in the southernmost island town of Nanzhou Island, has a permanent population of tens of thousands. In recent years, as Nanzhou Island began to engage in seaside tourism development, the town has become lively, and many foreign traders have also settled here.
Driving a converted fishing boat, Zhuang Haiyang, who got up early in the morning to fish, finally arrived at the fishing boat dock in the town. Many fishermen waiting at the wharf saw fishing boats entering the port and surrounded them one after another.
Seeing the fishermen who were about to board the boat, Zhuang Haiyang smiled and stopped: "Bosses, I'm sorry, this is a self-use boat, no big goods!"
The fisherman who heard this was also surprised: "Buy such a big boat for your own use, the boat boss is really rich!"
"I live a little far, there is no bigger boat, and it is inconvenient to travel!"
explained with a smile, and Zhuang Haiyang, who did not get off the boat, also waited quietly. Not long after, a pickup truck soon appeared at the dock. Looking at the fat man who got off the pickup truck, Zhuang Haiyang smiled and waved his hand: "Fat man, this way!"
The fat man, who was looking around, heard someone shouting to himself, and quickly walked towards where Zhuang Haiyang was, boarded the fishing boat and said: "Ocean, don't fool Lao Tzu, otherwise you will know the consequences!"
"Yo ho! When I became a young owner, this tone has also become crazy! I decided to increase the price by 20% and beat your local tyrant!"
"Seriously, you've really moved back to your hometown? Isn't that village deserted? Alone, aren't you afraid?"
"I'm afraid of Mao! Where Lao Tzu grew up, what is there to be afraid of. Let's go, I'll show you the goods, I didn't let those fishermen get on the boat before. Brothers belong to brothers, the price can't trick me, otherwise I won't sell you next time I have good goods. ”
"KAO, AM I LIKE THAT?"
What made the fat man depressed was that Zhuang Haiyang looked at it carefully and said: "No treacherous business! In just a few years, you are as fat as blowing a ball, I am very worried! They are all good goods, and they are still alive, you know the market better than me, right?"
With the fat man who boarded the boat, he came to the fish breeding cabin that he had refitted, and looked at the grouper swimming in it, and the fat man's eyes suddenly lit up and said: "Yes! It's all good goods! You kid, you can! How did you get it?"
"I went out to sea early in the morning to fish! The doors and windows of my old house are in tatters, so I plan to come to the town to find someone to help make it. Thinking that there would be a lot of money for a round trip, I tried to find a reef area to fish. These goods came out of the water in less than four hours. ”
"Awesome! Okay, live wild grouper, Lao Tzu will give you the highest price in the market, and I will definitely not pit you!"
"I don't believe this! If you even cheat Lao Tzu, next time I will throw you into the sea to feed the fish!"
"Get out!"
The fat man who was called by Zhuang Haiyang, as his name is Chen Chong, is the young owner of the fishing building in the town. is a classmate of Zhuang Haiyang, neither of them went to college, Zhuang Haiyang enlisted in the army for military service, but Chen Zhong followed his father to run his own fishing building.
In just a few years, with the development of seaside tourism resources in the town, Chen Chong's fishing and fresh building has also prospered, from a small restaurant to a large restaurant. If you want to sell wild grouper at a high price, it will undoubtedly be more expensive to sell it directly to a restaurant.
If it is sold to fishermen, they will have to make a profit from changing hands, and naturally they can't afford to pay a high price!
In order to ensure that the fish was returned to the restaurant alive, Zhuang Haiyang specially asked Chen Zhong to open the pickup truck for the live fish in the restaurant. Using a net, they scooped up the fish in the water tank, and the two of them worked together to carry it to the pickup truck.
The other fishmongers who didn't leave were very surprised when they saw the fish that the two of them carried to the pickup: "Boss, it's not authentic! How can you say that there is no goods for such good goods? Allow us a few, and we will pay a high price, how about it?"
In the face of the fishmongers' price increases, Zhuang Haiyang also smiled and said: "Several bosses, I'm really embarrassed, these goods I have engaged in have been booked." This is the young owner of Yuxian Building, I'm an iron buddy, so I'm sorry!"
Doing business pays attention to harmony and wealth, although Zhuang Haiyang can also not explain. But in the future, I should also deal with these people, so what does it matter if I am polite? In this regard, Chen Chong also smiled and did not say anything.
When Zhuang Haiyang returned to the fishing boat again and hugged a foam box down, Chen Zhong was also very curious: "What is it?"
"Don't think about it, it's for my precious niece!"
As soon as he heard this, Chen Chong didn't say anything more, and launched a pickup truck to pull the fish back to his restaurant. After weighing, Zhuang Haiyang also said casually: "Money, just transfer it to me later! Lend me your motorcycle and send it back to you later." ”
"Okay, do you have time to come over for dinner at noon?
"Thanks, next time, I'm back, if I don't go to my sister's house for dinner, you know the consequences!"
Chen Chong, who didn't know what to think, hurriedly said: "Understood! Then next time! If there are still good goods, call me at any time." I will accept as many good goods as there are. It's not easy to open a restaurant these days!"
"Okay! Then I will trouble Mr. Chen in the future, take care of it!"
"Fuck off!"
After laughing, Zhuang Haiyang tied the foam box that he picked up from the fishing boat. Chen Chong also looked at it curiously before, and found that there were two big lobsters and a few crabs inside, and he also knew that this was a good thing. The problem is that Zhuang Haiyang refuses to sell!
Fortunately, lobster and crab are ingredients that the restaurant can receive a lot every day. In contrast, wild groupers, which are difficult to catch, are sometimes not collected by restaurants. And this time, Zhuang Haiyang sold more than a dozen to the restaurant.
The smallest ones are more than two catties, and such a large wild grouper is most suitable for restaurants to use for steaming. And Chen Zhong believes that while he gives Zhuang Haiyang a very high price, he also makes a lot of money when he sells these fish to customers.
Riding a motorcycle to the community where the old lady lived, looking at the old man who opened the door for him, Zhuang Haiyang also smiled and said: "Fu Po, I'm here to disturb again! Brother-in-law, aren't they at home again?
"I heard that the unit has to work overtime, and I will come back later. Xiaoting, I'm watching TV!"
The old man in front of him is also the mother-in-law of his own sister. Although every time I come, I feel a little inconvenient. But Zhuang Haiyang also knew that his brother-in-law was an only child, and his father passed away early, and there was only one old lady left by his side.
The elder sister Zhuang Ling and her brother-in-law Liu Haicheng are both civil servants and are very busy with work. They don't have much time to take care of their children, and they really need someone to take care of them for them. Fortunately, the house was big enough to buy, and the four-bedroom house was enough for a family of four to live in.
After changing into shoe covers, she walked into the house, and soon a cute girl appeared in front of Zhuang Haiyang. The little girl who was still holding the remote control in her hand saw Zhuang Haiyang who had changed her shoes and entered the house, and quickly smiled and said, "Wow, uncle!"
Looking at the niece who was trotting over, Zhuang Haiyang, who hurriedly squatted down, reached out to hold the girl into his arms, and said with a smile: "Tingting, do you miss your uncle?
"I think about it! Tingting is very well-behaved, watching cartoons with grandma!"
Although my niece is four years old, she usually goes to kindergarten. But today is the weekend, and the little girl happens to be at home. Knowing that the little girl is lonely, there doesn't seem to be much she can do at home with her grandmother except watching TV.
handed the fruits and toys he bought to the little girl with a happy face, Zhuang Haiyang also opened the foam box, and put the lobsters and crabs he brought specially into the fresh-keeping room of the refrigerator. Seeing this, Fu Po also said that it was a waste.
But Zhuang Haiyang smiled and said: "Fu Po, this is not bought, I caught it in my hometown." Xiao Tingting, let my mother make us big lobster and crabs to eat at noon, okay?"
"Okay, uncle, did you catch this big lobster?"
"Hmm, next time you have a holiday, my uncle will take you to the beach to pick up shells, okay?"
"Okay! Thank you, uncle!"
Every time he sees the cute appearance of the little girl, Zhuang Haiyang feels extremely enjoyable. Compared with the occasional return in the previous two years, the two don't spend much time together. This time I returned to my hometown, and the more time I spent with her, the little girl liked to stay with him more and more!
