Chapter 182: Yellowfin Tuna
With the crane rattling, the crew began to worry that the crane would not be scrapped, and the heavy trawl was finally lowered to the empty deck. The moment it fell, the crew could feel that the fishing boat had sunk a lot.
It can be seen that the catch caught in this net was indeed unexpected by everyone. Seeing this net of fish, many crew members knew that this trip to sea fishing might also come to an end. Because, I'm afraid the water tank won't fit.
As the fishing boss, Zhuang Haiyang is responsible for opening the net and seeing the treasure as usual. When the trawl is untied, the various fishing nets crowded in the trawl instantly slip out of the net like an avalanche and are stacked on the deck that has been emptied in advance.
When everyone saw one of the big fish that was still struggling, the old crew member instantly rushed forward and said with excitement on his face: "Wow! Tuna, this tuna, at least one or two hundred catties! Haha, this time I really made a lot of money!"
"It's a pity, it's not the yellow fin and the blue fin, otherwise it would really be profitable. ”
"This black fin is not bad! It seems that the fishing boss can make a lot of money this time!"
Listening to the discussion of the crew, Zhuang Haiyang also smiled and said: "I earn more, don't you also earn more? Isn't there an empty water tank? Hurry up and carry the live ones over, be careful, don't be beaten." ”
"Okay, brothers, get to work!"
As Zhuang Haiyang ordered everyone to start working, the trawl was slowly hoisted. The deck, which had been emptied, was soon filled with fish of various sizes. When they saw the yellow patch, the crew became excited again.
"Wow, little yellow croaker, these little yellow croakers are not small, they are all the best goods!"
"Don't be stunned, quickly move the basket over, pick out these little yellow croakers first, and put them in the freezer immediately. The old rule is to pick out the expensive ones first, and then deal with the rest slowly. Get moving!"
With Wang Yanming greeting him, everyone began to laugh and get busy again. Zhou Yang, who was standing in the cockpit, saw the tuna that was being pulled out one after another, and soon started the fishing boat and began to turn the bow of the boat and drive towards Haichen Town.
Just as everyone was carrying the tuna, Zhu Junhong suddenly said: "Well, the color of this tuna seems to be different!"
As soon as these words came out, the old crew instantly looked away. Looking at the tuna that was pulled out and could still be bounced from time to time, some crew members soon said happily: Yellow fin! Haha, yellow fin tuna, fishing boss, you want to make a lot of money this time!"
"Earn together! Earn together! Junzi, don't be stunned, hurry up and move the fish out, pay attention!"
Looking at this yellowfin tuna weighing more than 300 catties, Zhuang Haiyang also knew that this kind of fish could not be eaten by ordinary fishermen. took several photos in a row, followed by Zhu Junhong and Wu Zhipeng, and the three of them threw it into the water tank together.
Thankfully, the tuna that was caught was still alive. After being thrown into the water tank, he quickly came back to life. In the short term, I guess there is no need to worry. And Zhuang Haiyang believes that such live tuna can also be sold more expensively.
In the end, Zhuang Haiyang found a blackfin tuna, and caught a total of thirteen, and only one yellowfin was caught. Even so, Zhuang Haiyang also knows that these tuna should bring him millions of income.
In recent years, the tuna market has continued to rise, and many high-end restaurants have focused on this precious seafood. As far as the current situation is concerned, the Chen family's Yuxian Building will definitely not be able to eat this yellowfin tuna.
It's not that the Chen family is short of money, but this rare tuna can't be sold at a high price in the Yuxian Building. This also means that Zhuang Haiyang also needs to contact the buyer to sell this batch of tuna at a high price.
With the help of the ship's satellite phone, Zhuang Haiyang dialed Zhao Penglin's mobile phone. In Zhuang Haiyang's view, Zhao Penglin has a lot of local connections in Nanzhou. Inviting a group of interested buyers in a short period of time should not be a problem.
Although Chen Xingwang did this, it is estimated that there is not much of a problem. But Zhuang Haiyang felt that if he wanted to sell at a high price, he believed that the friends introduced by Zhao Penglin were more reliable. The island's high-end hotels will not miss the opportunity to bid.
Zhao Penglin, who was at home, was somewhat surprised when he saw the number displayed on his mobile phone. originally wanted to hang up, but there were not many people who wanted to know his private mobile phone number, and finally chose to press the answer button.
The voice said calmly, "Hello, that one?"
"Uncle Zhao, it's me, the ocean. I'll be at sea, using a satellite phone. There's something I want to ask my uncle for a favor. ”
"Ocean, it's you kid! what's wrong?"
"Hehe, uncle, I heard Uncle Chen say, you have a lot of friends on this island, I don't know if you know the person in charge of a high-end hotel or restaurant? ”
As soon as these words came out, Zhao Penglin also became a little interested and said: "Yo ho, you kid is lucky!
"A three-hundred-pound yellowfin tuna, thirteen blackfin tuna of various sizes. As soon as the water tank on the ship was still empty, I put the tuna I had just caught and raised it directly in the water tank, which was estimated to last a few hours.
Now the boat is rushing back, and if all goes well, it should be at the fishing port in town at about seven o'clock in the evening. Originally, I wanted to call Uncle Chen, but I was afraid that my peers would be enemies, and others might not give him face, so I wanted to trouble you. ”
"Yellowfin tuna, or is it alive? You kid, you caught it there?"
"On the South Reef, in addition to these tuna, a batch of small yellow croakers were also hit. In addition, there are several large yellow croaker. It's just that the big and small yellow croakers have been swallowed and have been put in the freezer compartment for refrigeration alone. The largest large yellow croaker also has more than ten catties. ”
"You kid is so lucky, I really can't say it! Wait, I'll help you contact a few friends, they should be interested. ”
"Okay! If your friend wants to make a reservation, if the price is right, you can do it without auctioning. ”
Listening to what Zhuang Haiyang said, Zhao Penglin also knew that this was an opportunity to sell favors to him. Under normal circumstances, the owner of such a rare yellowfin tuna will choose to auction it and eventually sell the fish to a higher bidder.
Zhao Penglin, who was very pleased, immediately said: "Okay, remember to send me the picture later! I'll contact the buyer for you first!"
For an invisible rich man like Zhao Penglin, yellowfin tuna and large yellow croaker have naturally been eaten. But Zhao Penglin also knows that the vast majority of tuna sold in China in recent years is imported.
Almost without exception, these imported tuna are frozen. Now there is a live yellowfin tuna, which is sure to attract the attention of a large number of high-end diners. You don't see, the islanders who love to eat sashimi love to eat fresh.
Often, when fishing boats arrive at the port, it is said that countless merchants will come to bid. Then the merchant will bid on the tuna, invite the famous chef to take the knife, and invite those who have money to come and taste it. That is, it can make a lot of money.
In fact, the few big yellow croakers that were turned out were indeed beyond Zhuang Haiyang's expectations. Thinking that those big yellow croakers should also be mixed in the small yellow croaker, so that Zhuang Haiyang didn't pay attention to them, and they were finally fished out of the water together.
While calling Zhao Penglin, Zhuang Haiyang did not forget to call Chen Xingwang. Hearing the news, Chen Xingwang also said happily: "Ocean, the yellow-fin ones are sold to me and wasted, and the black-fin ones are left for me to be big, how about it?"
"Uncle, what is the relationship between our two families, this is naturally no problem. In addition, there is a batch of small yellow croaker, I pick out the big ones, and then I pack them separately. If you say the big yellow croaker, I'm afraid it depends on what Uncle Zhao means. ”
"Okay! Wild small yellow croaker, the best is rare, do as you say. The ship arrives at the port and I'll get over!"
His own family knows his own affairs, and as Zhuang Haiyang's ability becomes stronger and stronger, Chen Xingwang also knows that he relies on Zhuang Haiyang more places. Thankfully, Zhuang Haiyang is also a person who misses the old love.
If there is any good thing, the first thing that comes to mind is the Chen family. With the relationship with Zhuang Haiyang, the Chen family's Yuxian Building is becoming more and more famous recently. The previous time the red grouper and Su Mei also made the Chen family famous, and they made a lot of money by the way.
What's more, at present, the eggs, fruits and vegetables produced on Nanshan Island are also the exclusive suppliers of Yuxian Building. With these unique ingredients, the Chen family has indeed made a lot of money. Correspondingly, Zhuang Haiyang also made a lot of money.
When the catch on the deck was finally cleared, the fishing boat arrived in the territorial waters of the country. Seeing that the mobile phone finally had a signal, Zhuang Haiyang sent the photos taken directly to Zhao Penglin and Chen Xingwang.
Seeing the tuna cruising in the water tank, and the large yellow croaker wrapped in ice, both knew that these were sought-after goods. Correspondingly, the buyer contacted by Zhao Penglin immediately said that he would rush over before the fishing boat returned to port.
In recent years, the high-end hotels and restaurants on the island have also been struggling with high-end ingredients. With such a batch of goods now, they naturally will not miss the opportunity. If you can't grab a yellow fin, it's not bad to grab a black fin!
The most important thing is that from the video sent, they can all see that these tuna are still alive. Transporting live tuna back to a restaurant or hotel is also more appealing to diners who love fresh sashimi.
Frozen tuna, and tuna slaughtered alive, have a natural taste and freshness, and the latter is more dominant. After receiving a call from Zhao Penglin, Zhuang Haiyang also instructed Zhou Yang to return at full speed and not stay too long.
When the fishing boat arrived near Nanshan Island, Zhuang Haiyang did not stop the boat, and directly told Zhou Yang to continue to drive forward. At this moment, the buyer in the town was also invited by Zhao Penglin to have dinner in the Yuxian Building.
After receiving a call from Zhuang Haiyang, Zhao Penglin immediately got up and said: "There is still half an hour, the fishing boat will dock at the port, let's go to the dock and wait!
"I've got a connection! There are rentals at the fishing port, and if you get the goods, you will be transported back to the island immediately. ”
The yellowfin tuna is undoubtedly the target of several well-known hotels. If you can't shoot the yellowfin, shoot a few live blackfin tuna, I believe it is a good choice for their hotel or restaurant.
As for the news of the big yellow croaker, it was directly booked by Zhao Penglin. In this regard, Zhuang Haiyang has no opinion. If Zhao Penglin really needs it, he has no opinion on sending a few big yellow croakers for nothing. After all, tuna auctions are the big deal!
