Chapter 965: A Miracle in the History of Fisheries
In the face of so many disgruntled guests, Sakurako's three heads and six arms can't calm everyone's emotions. And the few undercover agents sent by the company were even more energetic, and they had already begun to incite others to leave. As long as today's sales meeting is disrupted, the reputation of Xianhu Japan will be ruined, which is undoubtedly a fatal blow to the new company.
Seeing that someone was clamoring to leave, Sakurako was also anxious, but there was nothing she could do about it. Just when Sakurako was at a loss, Xiao Ping called her.
"How's the situation?" As soon as the phone was connected, Xiao Ping asked Sakurako: "It's very noisy over there, the guests are impatient, right?"
Sakurako said anxiously, "Where are you, if you don't send the tuna again, I'm afraid everyone will have to leave." ”
Xiao Ping comforted Sakura: "Don't worry, the ship has already entered the port, and it will be there soon! I'll hang up first, I'll see you later!"
Xiao Ping's words made Sakura Fang's heart settle, and she hurriedly said to everyone through the microphone: "Everyone, please be quiet, the ship has already entered the port, please wait a little longer, please!"
As if to prove that Sakurako was right, a long whistle was heard as soon as her words fell. A fishing boat was slowly heading towards the pier, and as the fishing boat got closer and closer to the pier, even the name of the ship on the bow could be clearly seen - the fifth starfish maru.
Xiao Ping stood at the bow of the boat and waved to Sakurako from afar. Seeing Xiao Ping's Sakurako is like seeing the backbone, and I can't help but breathe a long sigh of relief, believing that this sale will be successful.
When he decided to hold a sales meeting, Xiao Ping thought about taking this opportunity to promote it. In order to give all the guests the greatest shock, Xiao Ping asked Sakurako to arrange the location of the sales meeting next to a pier. So when the Fifth Starfish Maru slowly approached the dock. The fishing boat was parked next to the sales venue.
Without waiting for the fishing boat to stop, Xiao Ping jumped onto the pier with an arrow step. Walked quickly to the venue and greeted everyone with a smile: "Everyone, I'm really sorry. It was a bit rough this morning. I have been delayed for some time and made everyone wait for a long time, so please bear with me. But please believe that everyone will know in a moment that the wait just now is definitely worth it!"
Sakurako was on the side, translating Xiao Ping's words into Japanese. After listening to Xiao Ping's explanation, most of the customers expressed their understanding. They came to buy the best tuna, and as long as the sale was going on properly, it didn't matter if they waited an extra hour or two.
Only fortunately, the undercover agents sent by the company are still expressing their dissatisfaction, shouting that they will not do business with unpunctual people. And threatened to leave immediately. It's a pity that everyone's curiosity has been hoisted by Xiao Ping now, so naturally they won't pay attention to these troublemakers.
Seeing that no one responded to them, these guys could only shut their mouths and sit down obediently. They received instructions from Ichiro Guangyuan to find out what tricks Xiao Ping wanted to do at the sales meeting. At this time, the main master had arrived, and of course they would not leave rashly.
Xiao Ping has the bottom in his heart, so he is not afraid of the noise of these clowns, and said to everyone with a smile: "You only need to wait for a while, you can see the biggest miracle in the history of fishing!"
At this time, the fifth starfish maru had already docked, and the fishermen were skillfully unloading their catch from the hold. The three bluefin tuna that were "caught" this time were huge. Each piece weighs more than 450 kg. Manpower alone and the unloading of such a large fish could not be carried out, but fortunately, Xiao Ping was well prepared, and a wheeled crane was already on standby on the dock. At this time, the crane slowly rotated the boom and went to the top of the cabin under the command of the fishermen to prepare for lifting.
saw that Xiao Ping actually used a crane to unload the catch. Everyone present was in high spirits. This bluefin tuna will use a crane, and it will definitely not be small. Some of them are already gearing up for the upcoming sales process.
As the hook slowly rises. A huge fishtail appeared in front of everyone. Seeing this fish tail that was more than a meter wide, everyone couldn't help but exclaim. Even the layman can see it. The tail of this fish is so big, it must be very large.
Now even those who just wanted to come and see the excitement became interested. Everyone stood up and waited, and the chairs that Sakurako and the others had worked so hard to prepare before were all useless.
As the whole tuna was hoisted out of the cabin, the sales meeting became silent, and there were no exclamations. Only the humming sound of the crane echoed around, and everyone stared at the big fish in amazement. Many of them even opened their mouths wide, and one unlucky ghost even swallowed a fly flying everywhere.
The crane slowly lowered the fish onto the heavy scales, and a number kept jumping upwards and stopping, making all the hearts beat faster. This number eventually stopped at 471, indicating to everyone the precise weight of this bluefin tuna.
"471 kilograms!" Sakurako wasted no time in announcing that this was the largest bluefin tuna ever sold at Tsukiji Market in the last five years! ”
Sakurako's words are exactly what many people want. The crowd looked at each other for a moment, and then the three old men stood up, and one of them shouted, "Let's do this." ”
The three old men were nearly seventy years old, and the youngest one was in his fifties. Almost everyone in the industry knows these three chefs, and they are the chefs of some of the best sushi restaurants in Tokyo and Osaka. When they started making sashimi, many of them were not born yet. Everyone has a lot of trust in the experience and character of these people, so naturally they will not have any opinions.
The three old men walked quickly to the tuna and looked at the big fish with an extremely professional eye. One of them reached out and pressed the fish, immediately showing a look of surprise. He exchanged glances with the other two, and with a sharp draw, a narrow knife from his waist and slowly sliced through the tail stem of the tuna.
The knife is extremely sharp, and it is effortless to cut through the skin and flesh of the fish, as if you were cutting butter with a hot knife. Even when it came to cutting the bones, the old man used his experience to cut the blade through the gaps in the bones and effortlessly cut off the huge tail.
At the same time as the fish's tail hit the ground, a wisp of blood slowly flowed out from the fracture, and soon flowed to the ground to form a small pool of blood.
Most of the people present were connoisseurs, and they were all surprised when they saw this scene. Many people also subconsciously rubbed their eyes, as if they couldn't believe that what they saw was real.
Blood still comes out of the tuna's severed tail, indicating that not only is the fish not frozen, but it was caught not long ago. Judging by the color and amount of blood, this bluefin tuna will not be out of the water for more than 10 hours! Because of its geographical location, such a fresh Atlantic bluefin tuna has never appeared in the Japanese market, and everyone is judged by the experience gained from farmed tuna.
This bluefin tuna was so fresh that it caused an uproar in everyone's hearts. The eyes of everyone looking at Xiao Ping were also different from before, and there was a bit of fanaticism in admiration. This Chinese actually has the means to get such fresh bluefin tuna to Japan, even if it is described as "supernatural".
Many people with flexible brains have already made a decision to establish a cooperative relationship with the fairy pot company as soon as possible. The strength of Senju can be seen from this tuna, and the rumors that they have terminated their cooperation with Koshita Co., Ltd. and entered the Japanese market on their own are also true. The sooner we establish a cooperative relationship with Xianhu Company, the more we will be able to seize the opportunity in the future market.
The three old men who inspected the tuna didn't think as much as anyone else, and their whole minds were on the tuna. These people have a lot of experience than the others, and just by looking at the appearance of the tuna, I guessed that this one is very fresh. After cutting off the tail, several people's speculations were confirmed, and the next thing to see was the quality of the fish.
The three old men looked around the tuna's severed tail for a while, and nodded their heads in satisfaction. The same man with the knife carefully cut a thin slice of fish from the tail handle, divided it into three parts, and handed it to the other two.
The three of them put the raw fish in their mouths, closed their eyes and chewed slowly, savoring the taste of the fish. Soon their expressions changed, and their wrinkled old faces were full of expressions of great enjoyment, clearly very satisfied with the taste of the fish. The old people slowly savored the taste of the fish, and after a while they reluctantly swallowed the fish in their mouths, and smacked their mouths with great satisfaction, apparently not recovering from the delicious taste that the fish brought them.
However, they can make the people below anxious, although everyone knows that the quality of this tuna is definitely not bad, but they all want to know how good it is. You must know that the price difference between the best tuna and the best tuna is not a little bit, and you must figure this out before you can bid.
Perhaps thinking that Guanzi had sold enough, one of the old men opened his eyes and announced loudly: "This is the best bluefin tuna, the most delicious fish I have ever tasted in my life!"
As soon as the old man's words fell, the people below immediately stood up, and several wealthy businessmen had already shouted loudly: "Sell me all this fish, the price is not a problem!"
Businessmen, of course, do not do loss-making business. This tuna is huge, extremely fresh, and has been recognized by three of the most respected elders in the industry, most importantly because it's not tuna season yet, and there is no tuna for sale anywhere else.
In such a situation, as long as the price offered by the fairy pot company is not too outrageous, you can always make a lot of money by buying it back. Moreover, such a large tuna can also bring a huge advertising effect, which is very cost-effective in any way.
The others are not fools either, and naturally they all think of the key to this. Naturally, everyone was not far behind, and everyone loudly offered to buy this tuna, and what was supposed to be a quiet sale immediately turned into a bustling vegetable market. (To be continued......)
