Chapter 63: Spend Your Money to Feed My Fish
Nurse Xiaohu shouted in such a loud voice, and the faces of the other two little nurses turned red with shyness, and a younger nurse hammered Xiaohu: "Oh, why are you calling it so loud, how embarrassed you are......"
"You two are delicate, how can you sell things without calling it? Learn from me! ”
Nurse Xiaohu glared at her twice, and then continued to shout into the loudspeaker as she always did:
"Selling fish feed, fragrant and sweet fish feed! Five dollars a bag, you can't buy a loss, you can't buy a fool, buy a bag of fish feed, change a good mood for a day......"
There were already some people who were ready to row boats at the cruise dock, and there were also people walking along the lake, and when she called this, she immediately attracted the attention of many people.
People like to watch the excitement, plus three girls in nurse uniforms sat in a row by the lake, and many tourists curiously gathered around.
"Didn't you say you wouldn't feed the fish?" Someone asked.
Nurse Xiaohu said aggressively: "That's not to feed indiscriminately, what are you feeding, plastic bags, junk food, and fish are not all eaten to death!" We are a serious sea miscellaneous fish, mixed with concentrate feed, the fish eats and grows big and good, so can it be the same? ”
The tourists were not stupid, and suddenly someone reacted and said with a smile: "Okay, your zoo is asking us to help you feed the fish, and you have to pay for it!" ”
"Take what you need, everyone come to play, isn't it just for fun, who can't afford to spend a few dollars, do you say that's the truth." Nurse Hu said.
She was right, for Su Ming, feeding the fish is work rather than entertainment; For tourists, on the contrary, throwing feed into the water and attracting a large school of fish to compete for food is entertainment, not work.
Each person calculates his own account, and the starting point is different, and the abacus is different. For tourists, spending a few bucks and having fun is a matter of course.
This method is actually not Su Ming's first use, now many farmhouses have launched 'own picking' or even their own 'planting' projects, customers pick and plant by hand, which is equivalent to saving farmers trouble, but paying money to farmers, this is the truth, spend money to buy a happy.
There is a famous strawberry farm on the outskirts of Yangchuan City, every year during the strawberry harvest season, there will be a large number of tourists rushing to pick strawberries and experience the pleasure of 'hands-on' labor, where strawberry farmers save the cost of picking, transportation and packaging, and the price of strawberries is more expensive than the market, which stimulates the economic development of the growers and also allows the people in the city to have an opportunity to get close to nature, killing two birds with one stone.
Nurse Xiaohu can speak well, and it didn't take long to sell a small half bucket of fish feed.
The people who bought the fish feed got on the boat and threw it on the lake, they didn't expect how many fish there would be in the lake, but they didn't expect that after the feed was sprinkled into the water, the water surface suddenly boiled, and countless fish squeezed one by one, and came out to fight.
The fish fry were deliberately hungry by Su Ming for several days, and finally encountered food, of course, they ate it with their lives.
For a time, the lake was full of fish surging and splashing, the scene was quite spectacular, and the whole lake seemed to suddenly 'come to life'.
Most of these feeds are broken pieces of sea trash fish, domestic fish do not eat, they will sink to the bottom of the water and be eaten by black fish, and the four big fish mainly eat a small amount of granular concentrate feed mixed with them.
"I said, girl, what do you mean by feeding fish in this bottle?" An aunt with her little grandson pointed to Nurse Hu's sign and was puzzled.
Nurse Hu took out a baby bottle from the bucket and said it was a milk bottle, but it was actually an empty mineral water bottle, but with a rubber pacifier, and the bottle was filled with concentrate feed and chopped sea trash fish.
There are several large gaps cut in the nipple, and a small bamboo pole more than a meter long is tied to the back.
"Look, that's it!"
Nurse Xiao Hu walked to the river with a bamboo pole and stretched the feeding bottle full of feed to the water, and the feed leaked out of the open nipple and fell into the water, causing the fish under the water to emerge and rush to the feeding bottle, one by one with round fish mouths, rushing to suck the feed from the nipple.
Let's chirp, you fight for each small fish, grab the pacifier to eat, it looks like a group of children are snorting.
Since the vast majority of the bottles are filled with sea trash fish, only a small amount of concentrate is mixed, so if those domestic fish want to eat concentrate feed, they must suck hard to suck the small pieces of sea trash fish out of the nipple.
As a result, the fragments of the sea trash fish will also sink to the bottom of the water and be eaten by the black fish.
"Grandma, grandma, I want to play, I want to play......" The little grandson slapped himself and pulled the aunt's sleeve on the side to be coquettish.
"Okay, girl, how much does it cost to play once?" Auntie asked.
Nurse Xiaohu handed over a bottle and said, "Ten yuan a bottle, no time limit!" ”
A bag of mixed feed costs five yuan, and there is probably only as much as a bag of feed in a bottle, but the price has doubled. It doesn't matter in terms of time, a bottle of feed can hold less than a catty, and it won't take long to be eaten up by the fish.
With the first one to pay for it, the later ones to buy followed. Those who came to the zoo to play, either young people or brought children, as well as many couples, and more than 20 baby bottles prepared by Nurse Xiaohu were all bought in less than an hour.
On the edge of the lake embankment, a row of big children and children squatted and stretched bamboo poles with feeding bottles into the water, attracting fish to eat, and they were happy.
……
Su Ming stood at the top of the Tingfeng Pavilion, taking in the scenery of Shuijun Lake and most of the zoo, and saw Nurse Hu who was shouting hard below, he couldn't help laughing, he really didn't find the wrong person, Nurse Hu's personality is too suitable for this business, selling feed, the effect is better than what he expected before, not only can he shout, but he also thought of the trick of the bottle with ingenuity.
He agreed with the three nurses at the clinic that when the three nurses were not on duty, they would take turns to come to the cruise ship to sell fish feed, and use the money from the sale of feed to make up for the shortfall.
Even if you buy the best sea trash fish and concentrate feed, one ton plus shipping costs only 2,000 yuan, and the average is one dollar per catty.
He wholesaled to nurses Xiaohu at a price of four yuan a catty, they could take the goods first, pay later, and settle the account once a week.
In this way, as long as he can sell 25% of the feed, his capital can be fully recovered, and the balance of payments is equivalent to not spending money on fish farming.
Su Ming kept an eye on it. If it is sold to a certain amount, nurses must take out a part of the profits, invest them in the medical center, buy some common medicines, and distribute them to the sick employees of the zoo for free.
In this way, in case the feed sales are large in the future, the entire zoo can share the benefits up and down, and it will not attract people's attention.
Of course, it's too early to talk about making a lot of money.
Su Ming observed for a while, there were really a lot of tourists who bought feed to feed the fish, and the three buckets of feed brought by Xiaohu and the others were sold out in less than two hours.
He suddenly found that counting the free fish fry, if one qiē shun lì, after the hundred acres of fish grow up, almost all of them will be earned in vain!
