Chapter 964: The Sales Meeting Opened
As long as the people present are not idiots, they can see that being able to catch such three giant tuna in such a place must have a lot to do with Xiao Ping.
Looking back now, from Xiao Ping's chartered boat to the seemingly whim of proposing to fish here at night, until he insisted on diving in the sea, he was paving the way for catching these three big fish. It's just that although the captain and sailors of the Fifth Starfish Pill are all experienced fishermen, no one can figure out how Xiao Ping made these three fish bite the hook. Could it be that he is really possessed by a sea dragon as the legend says, and has the ability to control fish?
There are no bluefin tuna near the main island of Japan, let alone one that has ever been caught, which is so strange that it can be described as weird. So although the fishermen knew that this matter must be related to Xiao Ping, no one really opened their mouths to confirm the matter to him, but used silence to hide the surprise in their hearts.
If Xiao Ping knew what these fishermen were thinking, he would definitely be surprised that their guesses were so close to the facts. The only difference between facts and speculation is that Xiao Ping can only control these big fish in the demon refining pot. If it weren't for the fact that his physical strength was far stronger than ordinary people, he really wouldn't have been able to hang three bluefin tuna on the hook in the water.
However, since the fishermen didn't ask, of course Xiao Ping didn't explain it too much, but just said to the captain with a smile: "According to the charter agreement we signed, all the harvest of the Fifth Starfish Maru in the past three days belongs to me, so these three bluefin tuna are also mine, right?"
The captain and sailor are both seasoned fishermen, so it's no surprise that the value of three bluefin tuna of this size is staggering. However, the charter agreement clearly states that all the catch during the charter period belongs to Xiao Ping, and there is no possibility of winning even a lawsuit. What's more, these three tuna came very strangely. The fishermen who witnessed all this almost saw it as the work of ghosts and gods. The fishermen who have been adrift at sea all the year round are a little superstitious, and they dare not compete with Xiao Ping, who is possessed by the sea dragon, for the catch.
So the captain just reluctantly glanced at the tuna. Then he nodded categorically and said, "Of course, these three bluefin tuna belong to you." ”
I listened to Takuma Sato's translation. Xiao Ping nodded with satisfaction and smiled: "In this case, please put the fish in the cabin." It's so hot outside that it's a few hours to get to the Tsukiji Fisheries Market. ”
Xiao Ping's request was reasonable, and the fishermen worked together to move all three large fish into a special cabin for fish. There are ice cubes here to cool down and keep the catch fresh. The Fifth Starfish Maru also began to accelerate, heading for the Tsukiji Fisheries Market Pier in Tokyo, a few dozen nautical miles away.
After the miraculous incident just now, the fishermen's attitude towards Xiao Ping has also changed a lot from before, and they are obviously a little more in awe. It can get bluefin tuna, which used to live in the Gulf of Mexico, off the coast of Japan, and it will also allow them to bite on their own. This is simply unheard of, and it's no wonder that fishermen react in this way.
Xiao Ping accepted such a change calmly, and he had already prepared for it. This sales meeting was originally for the promotion of the Japanese branch, so Xiao Ping changed his previous low-key style and took a bit of a risk to catch bluefin tuna in this way. Not only will this provide the market with high-quality bluefin tuna before tuna season, but it will also show everyone that the fish are completely fresh and not frozen last year.
Xiao Ping wants to let everyone know the strength of the Japanese branch of Dao Xianhu through this sales meeting. At the same time, it is also a disguised warning to Ichiro Hirogen. Let him be a little apprehensive when he plans to retaliate.
Xiao Ping sat on the undulating bow of the boat, watching the fishing boat break the waves, the sky was gradually brightening, and at this time he only hoped to get to the Tsukiji Fisheries Market as soon as possible.
At the same time. Sakurako, who got up early, and the company staff also rushed to the Tsukiji Fisheries Market and began to make the most preparations for the sale. Ever since the news broke that Senju Japan would be selling tuna today, we have been receiving a large number of requests to participate in the sale every day. Just yesterday, more than a dozen customers called to contact. Therefore, the scale of the sales meeting has also been expanded again and again, and dozens of chairs have to be added today.
Sakurako directs the staff to set up the venue. Perform the final inspection of all aspects, and the time for the sales meeting to start when the busy work is almost over. Look at the sun that has risen high. Sakura couldn't help but secretly said in her heart: "Mr. Xiao, come quickly!"
However, things did not develop as Sakurako expected, and before Xiao Ping appeared, there were already customers who attended the sales meeting one after another. As the organizer of the sales meeting, Sakurako naturally has to be hospitable. She and the staff greeted the customers who attended the sales meeting politely, and when they met some important guests, they would personally come forward to greet a few words, in short, let every customer feel that they were well received, and not let them feel neglected.
As time went on, more and more customers came. Many of them were peers, and they all began to talk in a whisper after meeting, and the topic was nothing more than the entanglement between Senju Company and Koshita Co., Ltd., and how the Senju Japan branch would affect the entire Japanese market after the official opening.
Of course, everyone is most concerned about this sales meeting. Seeing that the time for the start of the sales meeting is getting closer and closer, the organizers have not yet come up with even a small tuna, which makes the guests a little breathless. The conversation was getting louder and louder, and some of them were already looking impatient.
Finally, five minutes after the start of the sales meeting, someone shouted below: "What are you kidding, this sales meeting will not be held yet?"
This sentence was like a spark detonating a powder keg, and the sales meeting scene immediately became lively, and many people began to express their dissatisfaction, and the whispered conversation soon turned into loud complaints.
In the midst of the noise, another person shouted: "How can there be tuna this season, this sales meeting must be a scam!" The fairy pot company that held the sales meeting is also a liar, this is a joke for all of us, and I have come all the way from Hokkaido, liar!"
The sale was completely open to the public, so it was fortunate that people from the company were able to get involved. Their original task was to find out what was going on at the sales meeting and see if Senju Japan could really sell the best tuna. But at the moment, it seems that there will be a problem with sales, and of course they will not let go of this opportunity and immediately take the lead in provoking.
I have to say that these guys have a good grasp of the timing, and in just a few words, everyone's dissatisfaction has been ignited. Everyone asked Sakura whether the sales meeting would open or not, and whether the fairy pot company was deceiving. The sales meeting, which had been in order just now, quickly became chaotic, and if we didn't appease everyone's emotions as soon as possible, the sales meeting would have completely failed before it officially began.
