Chapter 4 Net Profits

Yu You, who determined the main goal of going to sea in the future, went to bed early, and after getting up, he went to the nearby to get an inflatable raft, a bundle of cables, a foam box filled with ice cubes and other tools.

No one cares what Yu Yu is doing on an inflatable raft, most of them just glance at it, and think that Yu Yu is fishing in the sea, but in fact he is diving into the sea to catch shrimp.

Yu You's feat didn't bring him much attention, and this was the effect he needed, doing things in a low-key manner, making a fortune in a muffled voice, even bringing a lot of dry food and fresh water, rowing a few nautical miles or so, Yu You found a relatively safe place.

I saw that Yu You fixed the inflatable raft on a reef with a cable, which may be because after the sea level dropped, the rock exposed the sea, so that he could have a place of more than 10 square meters to stay, Yu You could rest here for a while, if conditions permitted, Yu You would not mind having a barbecue party in this square area.

took out the bronze spear that rolled several layers of newspaper in the raft, Yu You carefully cleaned it on the reef, which is different from the spear and the ordinary bronze spear with a wooden handle, which is also made of bronze, and it is still quite heavy to hold on the shore, it is estimated that it is about twenty catties, and wiped it, this bronze spear about one meter 4 long shines in the sunlight, Yu You can't help but be a little surprised.

"How is it that this bronze spear doesn't corrode? Could it be that it has the function of resisting seawater corrosion, and it is all copper, so the actual combat function will be very weak, right? ”

Maybe it wasn't made 2 meters away, but I was afraid that the spear body would break, and 1.4 meters was already the limit.

"Rites! I can't figure it out if it's a bronze ritual vessel of the Spring and Autumn Period of the Warring States Period......" Yu You couldn't help but widen his eyes.

"Cut, where in the world is there such a coincidence." Yu You is not entangled, in his opinion, this bronze spear is just his "harpoon", what antique name to be named, trouble will continue to emerge.

"It doesn't matter where it comes from, it's pretty easy to use as a harpoon." Yu You understands a truth very well, the husband is not guilty, but he is guilty. Not only is the origin of the bronze spear unclear, but the ability he has at this moment is also a blessing and a curse, so pretending to be stupid is the best way, and he has no ability to identify, the bronze spear is not an antique, who can say clearly, the situation that is not easy to show, the bronze spear can only be secretly cast.

Diving into the sea Yu You has a special lobster net pocket behind him, used to place the trophies, the deeper the depth, the stronger Yu You's eye perception, the line of sight is comparable to a high-definition underwater camera, everything in the sea is under control, Yu Yu swims a lot of colorful sea fish, theoretically these fish can be eaten, but as a layman, there is no way to deal with these fish, the color of the body surface of these sea fish has a certain toxicity, is the result of self-defense, And Yu You can't name the types of these fish, and if you work hard to catch them, it will definitely outweigh the losses.

Concentrating on catching lobsters is the purpose of Yu You's trip to the sea, you can't lose the watermelon, go pick up sesame seeds! How good is the market of lobster, sea fish, because of the intensive fishing of fishing boats, so just by the ability of swimming individuals, a few can not be caught a day, plus the speed of sea fish is much faster than the crawling lobster, it takes so much effort to catch sea fish, it is not interesting.

In the sludge, a large lobster tears a rotting dead fish with clawers, and the scene is a bit disgusting. Yu You ambushed Zhou You, and muttered to himself in his heart: "The big lobster is really lazy, it actually eats carrion." ”

In fact, in addition to small live fish, seaweed, mollusc invertebrates, the food source of lobsters is more like dead fish, because this is their natural supplement! It can increase its protein content, which is why fishermen on the beach will use dead fish as bait to lure them into special nets, but from the perspective of efficiency, it is not as fast as swimming in the sea and fishing, and it is quite a bit of luck.

Yu You saw the opportunity, a sharp fork passed, and the head of the lobster penetrated directly! In order to ensure the integrity of the essence of the lobster, Yu You will choose to attack the head, after all, whether it is a freshwater shrimp or a saltwater shrimp, the head is condensed with heavy metals, which is inedible.

Yu You, who won the first battle, visually inspected, the individual of this lobster is also about 2 catties, Yu You observed the habits of the lobster, and concluded that the lobster will come to this sludge pile to prey, so he took the means of waiting for the rabbit, there are still a lot of dead fish on the sludge, as bait, waiting for the arrival of the lobster, if you swim indiscriminately, Yu You is afraid that you will not be able to return to the starting point, and Yu You still has some concerns, to return to the reef before dark, otherwise the tools left there may be submerged, after the high tide at night, The sea water will not pass through the place where the inflation valve is docked.

Of course, Yu You will not stay at the bottom of the sea all day, even if he is not limited by the objective conditions of the seabed, Yu You himself will feel hungry and tired.

Converted, it is the same as working on land.

"Another one, this time it seems to be a little fatter." Yu You estimated that he had at least 3 catties, and he stabbed it neatly, and this big lobster was also included in Yu You's bag. Although Yu You does not have the weight of the diving equipment as a burden, the spear itself is heavy enough, so Yu You basically catches about 3 and goes back, in addition to replenishing the physical energy, it is also good to unload the lobster.

Repeatedly, a day's work, Yu You caught 16, an average of half an hour to harvest one, the waiting process is sometimes fast, sometimes slow, 30 minutes to meet one is already very good.

Yu You set sail and cleaned up for a while, and as night fell, the reef was quickly submerged by the sea.

When I arrived at the Golden Beach, it was completely dark, Yu You didn't have to worry about being discovered, 16 lobsters, an average of more than 2 catties, the weight of the lobster alone was 32 catties, and there were ice cubes inside, a plastic box was full of 50 catties of lobsters and ice cubes.

If it were someone else, it would take a lot of effort to move this box, but Yu You has been working in the seafood market all year round, and the weight of 50 catties can be fully bearable.

The other tools were hidden in a secret place by Yu You and buried in sand.

Yu You's dinner this time was a little simpler, he made some vegetable stir-fry, and made an egg soup to solve the problem of food and clothing, as the first day of the official decision to use fishing to make a living, Yu You naturally will not eat lobster anymore, and the thought of eating one in the hotel will cost thousands, Yu You would rather change it to dear Grandpa Mao.

Yu You hasn't been in touch for a while since he sold the golden catfish to Hao Fan last time, and this time he called rashly, and I don't know if Hao Fan remembers him?

"Chef Hao, hello, I'm less than ......" Before Yu You finished speaking, Hao Fan nodded directly on the other end of the phone and said, "It's less than, I was still looking for you a few days ago, and I asked Boss Li, and he said that you resigned." ”

"Yes, I'm doing my own wholesale seafood business right now."

"Haha, that's a good dare, the boss liked the golden catfish you sold me last time, and directly transferred me to the food acquisition department as the deputy manager!" Hao Fan moved from a chef to the Marina Hotel's Acquisitions Department, where he was responsible for seafood acquisitions.

To say that the owner of the Binhai Hotel also likes this kind of fish, the rarity of a golden catfish, he knows very well, and he is also preparing for the Spring Festival, and he likes this kind of festive meaning when he does business, so he promoted Hao Fan as soon as he was happy.

The oil and water of this position can be imagined, and it is very easy, just move your mouth, Hao Fan's cooking skills are fixed at that level, to go further, the energy consumed is too great, and from a chef to an administrative logistics support cadre, this is an opportunity for Hao Fan.

Therefore, Hao Fan wanted to find Yu You to thank him in person, and when he visited before, he learned that Yu You had resigned, and thought that he had returned to his hometown, but he didn't expect to be in Binhai City.

"Congratulations to Manager Hao." Yu You was overjoyed, Hao Fan's promotion is also a good thing for You, and the wholesale of seafood in the future will be much easier.

Yu You immediately explained the reason for looking for Hao Fan this time.

"Manager Hao is like this, I just bought a batch of pure wild lobsters, and I want to transfer them to your hotel, I don't know what the price of your hotel is for lobsters now?" Yu You wanted to find out, Hao Fan had a pleasant transaction with him, so he said bluntly: "If it is wild, it is about 100-200 more expensive than the big lobsters in the market, is it Australian?" ”

"No, it's a local lobster." There are relatively few lobster species in China's coastal areas, but there are also exist, of course, Australian and American lobsters are more favored.

"I'll inspect the goods, you live there, I'll take a look." Yu lobbied the address, Hao Fan was the manager, and the hotel was naturally equipped with a car.

Not to mention that the supply of wild lobster Binhai Hotel is still relatively short, after all, if it is imported from abroad, there will be restrictions on the quantity, and the price is also inflated, and customers can't accept such a high hotel price.

Yu You didn't expect Hao Fan to be so anxious, he came to inspect the goods without saying a word, Yu You liked Hao Fan's character, and if he dragged it out, the quality of the seafood caught by Yu You would be greatly reduced.

About 30-40 minutes, Hao Fan arrived at Xinrong Community, and after a while, he came to Yu You's residence, observed the surrounding environment, Hao Fan sincerely admired: "Brother Yu, I've been doing well recently, although this community is in the suburbs, it is in a place with a beautiful environment, facing the sea......"

"Spring is blooming!" Yu You answered, the two looked at each other and smiled, after the old story, Yu You and Hao Fan inspected the goods in the living room, carefully inspected each big lobster, Hao Fan was a little puzzled about the penetrating head injury, and asked: "The purchase channel of your big lobster is a small fishing village?" ”

"Yes, they catch lobsters using the most traditional underwater spear fishing method...... Yu You's statement can be justified, after all, China's coastline is 18,000 kilometers, all kinds of ethnic groups gather together, and primitive fishing methods still exist.

In terms of freshness, this batch of lobsters is very fresh, as if it has just been caught, but according to Yu You's statement, it is a small fishing village in the middle of nowhere, and the transportation must be inconvenient.

Hao Fan, who was slightly puzzled, did not delve deeper, but stretched out five fingers and said: "Five hundred and one catties, this is the maximum price I can give, because of the head penetration, the price will drop by about 50 per catty, but from the perspective of variety, individuality, and freshness, this is the best local wild lobster." ”

"Thank you, Brother Hao, is it a transaction in the hotel?"

"No need, lest you go again, even if you count the catties now, I will issue a bill to you, and then pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other."

In the end, the two calculated that this batch of 16 lobsters was about 36 catties, and several of them were larger, and they could be sold at a higher price, but Yu You didn't care about it, since Hao Fan gave him sincerity, Yu You would not say this, as the deputy manager of the purchasing department, he ran in person, and he had to give people some profits.

Hao Fan ordered 18,000 and handed it to Yu You, the two counted it again in person, and confirmed that there was no mistake in the number, and after the fake/banknote was not mixed in, the transaction was successfully completed, Yu You and Hao Fan shook hands, and they didn't drink a sip of water, Yu You helped carry this box of lobsters into Hao Fan's trunk, and Yu You felt a little dreaming.

"Pure profit of eighteen thousand! It's only been a day...... "Happiness is coming too fast, just yesterday Yu You was still worried about money, and now Yu You, who has no worries, is more determined to be a fisherman."
