At noon the next day, Xu Dong received another call from Mr. Mack.

"Mr. Xu, I have good news for you, after deliberation, we have decided to accept your suggestion."

This morning, Mr. Mike contacted the "housekeepers" of several super cruise ships through relevant channels, and two of them were very interested in white sugar and were willing to purchase.

Later, after negotiations, one pound of sugar can be exchanged for twelve pounds of flour, which is already quite considerable, much higher than the local market price.

"Really? That's great. Xu Dong was very happy.

"It's a win-win." Mr. Mack chimed in.

Xu Dong then asked, "Mr. Mike, how do you want to exchange?" What is the specific exchange rate? ”

"We refer to the current market situation, a pound of whale meat can be exchanged for five catties of rice, and a catty of sugar can be exchanged for ten catties of rice, although this price is not very accurate, but it is no problem as a reference."

Is the price of whale meat so low?

Xu Dong was a little surprised in his heart.

Yesterday I was so tired that I fell asleep when I went to bed, and today is Monday, and there will be a lot of miscellaneous things, and I have been busy until now, and I almost forgot about the whale meat.

"You mean a one-to-two exchange? One pound of sugar for two pounds of whale meat? ”

"That's right, you only need to pay us 240 kilograms of sugar." Mr. Mack replied.

Xu Dong thought about it for a while, this exchange ratio was simply too conscientious, so he agreed on the spot.

"No problem, when can I trade?"

"How's the afternoon?"

"No, I'm still at work, or in the evening, at half past six in the evening, let's make an appointment somewhere to trade." Xu Dong proposed.

"Okay, our whale meat is stored in a small warehouse near the embassy, I'll send you the detailed address later, and we'll meet again at six o'clock."

"Okay, see you or leave."

Hanging up the phone, Xu Dong picked up the teacup and took a sip of water.

In the office, Xiang Xin was feeding her daughter, Xu Dong did not avoid the other party, there were more people outside, it was better to stay in the office.

Xiang Xin cautiously asked:

"Boss, I think I heard whale meat?"

"Just got a batch of whale meat, what, you're interested?" Xu Dong said proudly.

Xiang Xin nodded frantically: "Can you sell me a few catties?" The price is negotiable. ”

"Okay, sell you ten catties, fifteen hundred yuan per catty, do you want it?"

Xu Dong is rare to be generous once, mainly because he bought a lot this time, almost half a ton, and happiness came too suddenly.

"Yes, boss, can you add a little more?"

Xu Dong glanced at the little baby, and just as the little baby smiled at him, he couldn't help but feel good.

"I'll give you another ten pounds!"

"Thank you, Boss."

Xiang Xin felt that she had gone lucky today, and wondered if she was going to buy a few lottery tickets after work.

"Whale meat will be brought to you tomorrow morning, let your father-in-law take it back by the way, don't talk about it outside."

Xu Dong specially reminded.

"I understand." Xiang Xin nodded solemnly.

……

After getting off work, Xu Dong rushed home as quickly as possible, and then moved five bags of sugar from the basement, as for the extra twenty catties of sugar, he planned to store it on the other party's side as a balance.

There should be a lot of cooperation opportunities in the future, and these twenty catties of sugar should be regarded as their own deposit, which also shows a kind of sincerity.

At six o'clock in the evening, Xu Dong came to the small warehouse twenty minutes in advance according to the address given by the other party, which was actually a small façade room with five or six freezers in it.

"Mr. Xu, let's meet again."

"Long time no see!"

Xu Dong stepped forward and shook hands with the other party, and then after introduction, he met two other embassy staff, one was a British man, and the other was Master Jiama.

All three are members of the Queen's Federation, so it's no wonder they're all in the mix.

After some politeness, Xu Dong nodded and said:

"Mr. Mike, shall we begin?"

"OK, Mr. Xu, I'll take you to see the whale meat first, don't worry, it's all fresh frozen fish."

Mr. Mack personally opened a freezer.

Xu Dong carefully looked at the whale meat, the fish meat was all large pieces of lean meat, and the fat was shaved clean, but this was better, their family's favorite food was lean meat.

"No problem."

Subsequently, Mr. Mike and the others checked the sugar, and there was no problem, and for the extra twenty catties, the three patted their chests and assured that they would never fail to pay the bill.

The person who brought Ying even said on the spot that he would make up a meeting gift for Xu Dong next time.

The transaction process was smooth, and the four people worked together to complete the unloading and loading in less than ten minutes.

When he got home, Xu Dong immediately called his wife and mother out, and he kept this matter a secret, so he wanted to surprise his family.

Mother Xu struggled to get up from the wheelchair, looking at the pile of fish and meat in the carriage, her face was full of smiles, and Yang Lina was no exception.

"What kind of meat is this?" Xu Ma asked.

Xu Dong didn't sell Guanzi: "Whale meat." ”

"Whale meat? It seems that it is rare to see it in China, and I heard that the Nisan people are super fond of eating whale meat. Yang Lina elaborated.

Mother Xu touched the fish meat, with a curious face:

"This meat smells so fishy, I wonder what it tastes like?"

"It shouldn't be bad, the whale meat dishes of the Nisan people are very famous, if it is not delicious, how can it be so famous?" Xu Dong comforted.

Yang Lina smiled: "Whether it's delicious or not, you'll know if you taste it at night, and I'll check it on the Internet later, and see how the whale meat is delicious." ”

They haven't eaten whale meat yet!

"With so much meat, there is not enough freezer at home, what can I do?"

Mother Xu suddenly became worried.

Xu Dong waved his hand: "It's okay, if you can't put it down, put it in the compartment first, the engine won't be turned off, and I'll buy two freezers tomorrow and come back." ”

"That's all there is to it for the time being."

Yang Lina quickly picked a small piece of whale meat, went to the kitchen to thaw, dinner was almost ready, and finally added a dish of braised whale meat!

The fishy smell is too strong, and the braised is the most suitable.

Half an hour later, the braised whale meat was ready, and Xu Dong couldn't wait to clip a piece and put it in his mouth.

"Husband, how does it taste?"

Xu Dong chewed a few bites, and felt that the fish meat was fishy and woody, far worse than tuna meat, and it was only at this time that he understood why whale meat was sold so cheaply.

"It's not very tasty."

Yang Lina also tasted a piece herself, and immediately frowned: "Why is it so unpalatable, is it because I did it in the wrong way?" ”

"It shouldn't have anything to do with your cooking skills." Xu Dong said bitterly, "I don't know what kind of whale this is, it's probably the taste!" ”

He quickly took out his mobile phone and checked it on the Internet, and sure enough, as he expected, most people who had eaten whale meat commented that they were indifferent to whale meat, and generally thought it was unpalatable.

The most used adjective is fishy.

"What can I do about this, it's all your fault, who made you buy so much meat at once?"

Yang Lina rubbed her temples helplessly.

Not to mention the children, adults don't like to eat this meat, especially the parents-in-law are old and have bad teeth.

It's so sad!
