Chapter 353: Some People Are Happy and Some Are Worried
In addition to these seafood merchants, some owners of seafood restaurants and seafood restaurants who don't know each other are also frantically contacting him at this time.
Now is also the best time of the year for their business, the annual meeting of various companies and the year-end dinner are in full swing at this time, and even many regular customers have contacted them in advance to start ordering Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, which seaside city can leave seafood?
And what many people want is not ordinary seafood, it must be high-grade seafood, but the problem is that although they know that this time of year is the peak season, they have prepared a batch of inventory in advance, but now they are still out of stock!
Now the market is not to say that a fish is hard to find, but a lot of high-end seafood is really difficult to buy with money, and if there is no new supply, they can't last long with the inventory in their hands.
The key is that at this time, you are not good at refusing customers, the world has taken care of your business for a year, and at this time you tell others that there is no seafood, and you can't entertain them, and they themselves feel that they can't say it?
Doesn't that also show that your hotel is not strong, whether people will patronize your hotel in the coming year, and whether you will do business in the future?
Now, no matter how much pressure they bear, they have to grit their teeth and agree.
However, what makes them different from ordinary seafood merchants is that most of what they lack is some high-end seafood.
】
Now I suddenly see such an opportunity, and it is not a crazy order!
It's only been a little more than an hour, and some of the sought-after catches on Li Xiaofeng's fishing boat have already been snapped up by acquaintances, and this is still the result of his deliberate control.
Some people come up with a sentence that so-and-so fish is all covered by me, if you really let him do it all, then what about other people, others are also old customers, and they also have to maintain.
There are also some rare seafood, which he also wants to sell with other seafood.
Li Xiaofeng really didn't expect the seafood on the boat to be so sought-after, although in previous years, there was also a wave of rising prices of seafood before the year, and there was a rush to buy, but it was definitely not as serious as this year.
Later, I found an old customer and inquired about it, mainly because not long ago, many coastal areas in China encountered an extremely cold weather that was rare in a century.
This has led to a sharp decline in the fishing harvest of coastal aquaculture and offshore fishermen in many parts of the country, which is the main reason for the serious shortage of seafood in the domestic market.
Hearing the news, Li Xiaofeng was also glad that he was lucky to go to the tropical sea to fish this time and was not affected by the cold wave.
At the same time, thousands of miles away from the Zhuo Fishing Company in Moss Harbor, Zhuo Shihao, the eldest of the three Zhuo brothers, was sitting in the office with a sad face.
In the last few days, he has almost turned off his mobile phone.
As long as you turn on the mobile phone, either the phone rings non-stop, or a lot of messages pop up on WeChat, these are old customers from the past, and they are all here to ask him for goods.
He also wants to maintain these customers, and some of them are even old customers for more than ten years!
But now the problem is that the landlord's family has no surplus grain, and the fishing boats he used to cooperate with for a long time are affected by the severe cold weather during this time, and now every time they go to sea to harvest, they can be said to be very few.
Who knows when the fish that have migrated to the deep sea because of the cold will return?
He also managed to contact some distant-water fishing vessels that had cooperated with him, but they either couldn't come back in the near future, or the fish on board had already been sold at a high price in advance.
If there is no goods in everyone's hands now, then the customers have nothing to say, and everyone is "not suffering from widowhood but suffering from unevenness".
But now the problem is precisely here, their competitors don't know where to contact the source of goods, yesterday suddenly came four or five hundred tons of seafood, this time directly detonated the market.
Now many of his customers have also begun to be restless, not for his prestige and credibility in Moss Harbor for so many years, coupled with all kinds of reassurance and promises, it is estimated that he will soon switch to the opponent's side.
But Zhuo Shihao knows that this is not a long-term solution, if he can't solve the supply problem immediately, these customers will definitely switch to the opponent.
After all, everyone is making money, and now it is the most prosperous time for seafood sales every year, and many customers are counting on this wave of making a lot of money before the year, so it is better to have a fat year!
But the source of goods, where can I find the damn source?
Now only when you have the supply in your hand, you have the right to speak!
In the past few days, he can be said to be anxious every day, but he still has to maintain a calm appearance on the surface.
After all, he is the company, and he is the backbone of their three brothers, if he looks panicked and has no owner, then the company will definitely be completely messed up, leaving opponents to laugh at them!
Just when he was worried, he suddenly saw the third child running in in a hurry.
"Can you be more steady, can you look like a company boss?"
Seeing the third child like this, Zhuo Shihao, who was already in a bad mood, couldn't help but reprimand angrily.
Zhuo Laosan didn't take the eldest brother's reprimand to heart, he also knew that the eldest brother was in a bad mood during this time, and even he was reprimanded by the eldest brother even in normal times.
"Big brother, source, source!" Zhuo Laosan said anxiously.
"Source, what source?" Zhuo Shihao was overjoyed, "Have you found the source of goods?" ”
"Big brother, it's not me who found the source." Zhuo Laosan hurriedly waved his hand and said.
"You didn't find the source, what did you shout?" Boss Zhuo was even angrier in his heart, "Didn't you block me?" ”
"Big brother, look at your phone!" Zhuo Laosan hurriedly handed his mobile phone in front of him.
Zhuo Shihao saw the circle of friends posted by Li Xiaofeng at a glance, and after reading the content, he couldn't help but feel ecstatic in his heart.
Li Xiaofeng brought back so many catches from their fishing boat this time, if he could get half of it, not one-third, it would have helped him a lot and solved his big trouble!
If possible, of course, he wants to buy a boatload of fish, and now as long as he has the goods in his hand, he won't worry about selling them at all!
But he also knows that this is impossible, and at this point in time, there must be many old customers to maintain.
"Third child, have you called Captain Xiao Li?" Zhuo Shihao hurriedly asked.
For Li Yonglin and Li Xiaofeng, the three of them are at home, and since they were divided into two ships, they have been called Captain Lao Li and Captain Xiao Li to distinguish them.
This time he was so short of supplies, he didn't think about contacting them.
When he contacted Li Yonglin a few days ago, he knew that they had very few harvests when they went to sea recently, and they were already ready to return home for the New Year.
Li Xiaofeng didn't have any contact with him, mainly because when Li Xiaofeng chatted with him before he set off, he said that their plan to go to sea this time, according to their original plan, they would definitely not be able to come back before the year.
