Chapter 281: Tuna Fishing Tournament
At nine o'clock in the morning of the next day, Chu Mingcheng, who was rarely in bed, received the auction information from the trading center.
He was lucky, and the trading center would arrange an auction of bluefin tuna the afternoon after tomorrow.
Basically, the high-quality bluefin tuna from the trading center is auctioned after a certain amount has been accumulated.
Sometimes it's big, sometimes it's small, and the timing isn't necessarily there.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Luoluo couldn't help but ask when he saw that he had been looking at his phone.
And out of curiosity, she got out of the quilt, her smooth and white shoulders were suddenly exposed to the air, and the beauty of reverie loomed.
"The information sent by the trading center is that there will be an auction of bluefin tuna the day after tomorrow, and from one o'clock in the afternoon, our fish will be auctioned the day after tomorrow." Chu Mingcheng handed her the phone and said.
"What is the tuna auction like?" Jiang Luoluo took the phone, looked at it, and gave it back to him.
"I don't know, I haven't seen it, I'll see it then." Chu Mingcheng shook his head, "But I originally planned to go to Hangzhou first today, and then go home for a few days, and now it seems that we have to stay in the magic capital for one more day." ”
"So where do you want to go today?" Jiang Luoluo reached out to hug him, and the touch of his snowy skin made someone's face show a look of enjoyment.
"Shouldn't you say, where do you want to play, and then I'll accompany you?"
"I've been to the magic capital a lot before, and I've been to all the places I want to go, so it's not interesting."
“.”
Chu Mingcheng, who often goes to sea, finds that he is not very interested in attractions and the like now, but he still went to the Bund of the magic capital in the afternoon to play, and went to the Oriental Pearl in the evening to see the night view.
It's a feature of the magic capital, so let's find out about it since you're here.
After returning to the hotel in the evening, Chen Yang came over and discussed with him about opening a diving club.
"Ah Cheng, I know a lot from Coach Lu in Qiongzhou, combined with the rent in Siming District, I roughly calculated that the approximate cost of opening a dive shop will be about one million."
"Mainly, we all have boats, which saves the biggest expense of opening a dive shop."
More than one million, this fee is within the range accepted by Chu Mingcheng.
Anyway, he didn't invest alone, of course, even if he invested alone, it would be nothing.
The cost of trial and error for a rich man is very high, and his current economic situation will be distressed for a few days at most, even if he loses one million.
"I don't have a problem with this, but how much do you and Ah Wei plan to invest? By the way, what about Ah Weiren, why didn't he come over? ”
Chen Yang spread his hands helplessly: "What else can you do with that goods?" ”
Chu Mingcheng suddenly understood: "Then don't care about him, how much are you going to invest with him?" ”
"Ah Wei mentioned to me before that he plans to invest 10%, and my plan is to invest 40%. If you think 50% is a bit much, then I'll be fine if I invest more. ”
"That's okay, I'll invest 50% with Luo Luo, I'll transfer 500,000 to you tomorrow, and if it's not enough, I'll make up later."
The matter of investment Chu Mingcheng and Jiang Luoluo had already discussed, and when she bought the boat, she gave half of the money, and the investment money was regarded as her dividends.
The current relationship between the two is just one certificate away, and no one will care about these things.
But if one person is more calculating, it will be difficult for the two to go on all the time.
Chu Mingcheng and Jiang Luoluo have also been working hard to manage the relationship between the two. Give to each other, and think about each other.
If this situation continues, it will turn into an enviable relationship.
If you can grow old together, it is relatively rare in today's society.
After Chen Yang continued to talk about some details, he left Chu Mingcheng's room.
In fact, it is still a long time before the dive shop opens, even if you rent a house now and start decorating, you have to wait for next year to get it done, these things themselves are Chen Yang's responsibility, and he doesn't need to think about it.
The focus is still on the diving pool, which is related to Jiang Luoluo's water dance in the future, maybe it will be popular again.
On the third day of coming to the Demon Capital, Chu Mingcheng retreated from the room and met with Jiang Luoluo in the hall on the first floor to meet Chen Yang.
"What about Zhang Wei? Didn't come back last night? ”
Chen Yang sighed lightly and said, "I went to another hotel and opened a room, and said that I would go directly to the trading center in the afternoon, let's go first!" ”
Chu Mingcheng and Jiang Luoluo nodded, and there was no reaction to this.
The three of them went to have lunch and then took a taxi to the trading center.
When I came here, it was already past one o'clock in the afternoon, and the auction was taking place.
There were still people entering the main gate one after another, and the three of Chu Mingcheng didn't wait for Zhang Wei when they saw this, and walked in directly.
After entering, they found that the lobby was already full of tuna, divided into fresh and frozen sections, and crowded with people.
With so many tuna, it seems that the boat fishing for tuna in the ocean has already brought back a shipment, so the number of bluefin tuna in the lobby is very large, and there are at least hundreds of them.
And depending on the body type, the weight is at least more than 200 catties.
Basically, it is difficult to achieve an excellent fat content of tuna less than 200 catties, so it is all directly traded.
And there are not many two hundred catties in the lobby, and it seems that they are basically about three or four hundred catties.
Jiang Luoluo saw so many excellent quality bluefin tuna, and couldn't help but smack his tongue: "We went to sea for a few days before we came across one, and I thought that the number of bluefin tuna was very rare at present, but I didn't expect there to be so many?" ”
"It's not as small as you think, we're just a little unlucky, and we've only encountered it once. However, some of this should be imported. Chu Mingcheng pulled her and began to wander around the lobby.
There are a lot of tuna, and there are many staff members in charge of recording.
The profit model of the tuna trading center is modeled after that of the small day, so the model of this auction is similar.
The fish has specific data on it, and the meat cut off the tail is also placed on the fish for customers to see.
If you have more contact with it, you will naturally be able to see the quality of the fish.
From time to time, Chu Mingcheng would choose a fish, observe its fat content and meat quality, and then look at the data.
In this way, you can understand a little more by watching more, and you can guess the approximate value of the fish you catch in the future.
From time to time, someone around them will bid for it, and then the staff will take a notebook and record it.
After reading the fresh area, the three of them came to the frozen area again.
As soon as they arrived, they saw a group of people gathered in one place, and walked over curiously, only to find a group of people bidding for the bluefin tuna they caught.
"Ah Cheng, it seems that our fish is very good! You see, so many people want. Jiang Luoluo tugged at Chu Mingcheng's clothes, then stood on tiptoe and whispered in his ear.
"More people are better, and the price of selling is also high."
"That's, how much do you think you can sell?"
"The auction will be a little higher, estimated at about 700,000, no matter how much it is."
"Is it so low, I thought it would be over a million!"
Jiang Luoluo was a little surprised, after all, bluefin tuna has a good reputation, and it is often auctioned at sky-high prices on small days.
Even if the market shrinks due to special reasons in the later stage, it is possible for Chu Mingcheng's bluefin tuna to fetch 1 million RMB over there, so she feels that 700,000 is less.
"The domestic market is like this, if you want to fetch a sky-high price of 1 million, it is estimated that you have to buy an 800-pound tuna. But it is difficult for bluefin tuna in the Pacific to grow that big, and only in the Atlantic Ocean can appear. ”
"However, the bluefin tuna in the Atlantic Ocean is almost extinct, and we can't count on it abroad."
Jiang Luoluo nodded, but his expression was somewhat pity.
Time passed slowly, and it was nearly three o'clock in the afternoon when Zhang Wei came in a hurry, and the auction was nearing the end.
Chu Mingcheng's bluefin tuna, the current auction price has reached 715,000, which is indeed similar to what he guessed.
If it is sold directly, this fish can be sold for more than 500,000 yuan, and the highest is only 600,000 yuan, which is obviously the benefit of auctions.
Of course, the fish is good enough.
Like these about 300 catties next to them, the bidding price is not much higher than the selling price, and after deducting the handling fee, you may earn an extra 10,000 or 20,000 yuan.
The nature of bluefin tuna auctions is certainly different from serious auctions, and it is difficult to sell for far more than its own value in the domestic market.
At three o'clock, the tuna auction officially ended, and Chu Mingcheng and the others did not leave, but went to wait in the rest area of the trading center.
After a short meeting, the person in charge who had received Chu Mingcheng before came over and handed him a list.
That is, the auction price of the fish, as well as the handling fee and storage fee deducted above.
After Chu Mingcheng signed, the trading center would immediately arrange the transfer.
He took the list and looked at it, and the bid price for bluefin tuna was the last price he saw, which was 715,000 yuan.
After deducting 5 per cent of the handling fee and 200 storage fees, there is still $679,050 left.
Jiang Luoluo took out his mobile phone and calculated, and nodded to him after finding that there was no problem, and Chu Mingcheng picked up the pen and signed.
After signing, wait for the money to arrive.
The person in charge tore up a copy of the slip and gave it to him, and then prepared to leave.
But he seemed to remember something, so he turned to Chu Mingcheng and said, "Hello, are you interested in participating in our fishing tournament?" Yes, our trading center will hold a tuna fishing tournament in September for a month. ”
"And I have learned about your conditions, which fully meet our entry requirements, I wonder if you are interested?"
"Tuna Fishing Tournament?" Chu Mingcheng was a little surprised, and Jiang Luoluo and the others also looked at it curiously.
"Yes, this event will be promoted by our trading center tomorrow on the 15th, and those who participate must have their own boats, and only fishing is allowed."
In fact, this matter is not in charge of the person in charge, but Chu Mingcheng caught such a big bluefin tuna, which impressed him deeply.
If the domestic tuna industry wants to develop further, publicity is inevitable.
Just like the big yellow croaker, if there is no hype for many years, it cannot be sold at a sky-high price.
Young people in China know a little bit about tuna, but that's it, and more people must know about it to open channels.
Where the small days are so big, tuna can be so good, and the Chinese market is obviously bigger.
Men aside, as long as the tuna grade is put up, most young women are willing to consume it after a fool.
Then some men will be forced to take the blame, further stimulating the tuna market.
The fishing tournament is a good gimmick, and it is believed that it can also attract many people by fighting fish bigger than people in the wind and waves.
And asked Chu Mingcheng because the person in charge learned that he had his own ocean-going fishing boat, which had enough financial resources and was handsome.
Even the women around him are so beautiful that they can completely attract the attention of a group of women who only look at their appearance.
This is also the reason why he specially invited, otherwise he would have too much to do with himself, so he didn't bother to care about it.
"How do I sign up?" Chu Mingcheng came to be interested.
He is now making money by fishing tuna, and there is no problem at all in participating in a competition, which will not affect his fishing income.
"You log in to this website, register an account, and then fill in your specific information, participants, etc., as long as you pass the review, you can participate in the competition. The specific rules and rewards are explained on the website, so you can check them out for yourself. ”
The person in charge sent the website to Chu Mingcheng, and after explaining it roughly, he went to work on his own business.
Chu Mingcheng and the others sat in the rest area and logged on to the website to check the specific rules of the game.
The rules of the competition are actually very simple, there is a ship that can go to the open sea, and the three certificates must be complete, and those who do not meet the regulations will naturally not pass.
Of course, you can also rent, but the rent is so high, and the cash reward is just like that, I guess no one will be so stupid.
In addition, you can only choose to go to sea by fishing, and you can't go to sea with nets or longlines.
There will be patrolling speedboats and drones to supervise, and cheaters will be eliminated if they are found.
Secondly, the number of participants on a boat is limited to five people, which cannot be exceeded.
There will be a leaderboard in the trading center that counts the total weight of tuna for each ship.
At the end of the competition, rewards will be distributed according to the ranking.
First place: 500,000 yuan in cash, all services to sell fish in the trading center are free, and the auction fee is waived (until the beginning of the fishing ban period next year).
Second place: 200,000 yuan in cash, free of charge for all services to sell fish in the trading center (three months).
Third place: 100,000 yuan in cash, free of charge for all services to sell fish in the trading center (one month).
The prize money may not seem very high, but in fact, even if it is more than 100,000 yuan a month, it is very attractive to professional tuna fishermen.
Finally, there is a restriction on fish.
The minimum requirement for bluefin, yellowfin, and big-eyed tuna is more than 100 catties, and if it is less than 100 catties, the weight is not calculated, but you can buy and sell it yourself.
Albacore tuna is more than 50 catties, and all tuna must be bled and gutted before they can be weighed.
If the meat is not treated and the meat is damaged, it will be disqualified and eliminated.
Secondly, marlin, swordfish and swordfish are also included in the competition, and the calculated weight is more than 100 catties.
These fish must be bled out, but not gutted.
There are also some detailed regulations to prevent the occurrence of things such as the participants maliciously doing things to make the trading center lose money.
In short, it is considered very comprehensively, and there are no loopholes to exploit.
"Hey, there can be five participants in a boat, Ah Cheng, ask for thighs!" After Zhang Wei read the rules of the game, he immediately hugged Chu Mingcheng's thigh.
"Don't even think about it, I suggest you go fishing yourself, it's a big deal that you find a few people to replenish the number." Chu Mingcheng refused without hesitation.
It makes no difference to him whether there are five or two, and he alone is worth five others.
The only thing that limits him is the number of fish, whether he can find the fish.
As for the three sea lions, it is estimated that they cannot be brought, which is no different from cheating, and it is impossible to agree to it in order to balance the trading center.
Chu Mingcheng's refusal, Chen Yang didn't care: "We have a ship, it's really better to separate." If there is no boat, then there is no problem with Ah Cheng. ”
Zhang Wei let go of his hand: "I'll just talk about it, and we'll call the two of you when the time comes." ”
"I've received the money, let's go, let's go back to the boat first." Chu Mingcheng was not in a hurry to sign up, and seeing that the money had arrived, he took Jiang Luoluo's hand and left here.
But before leaving, he saw the person in charge.
After understanding the rules and the number of participants, he actually thought about fishing and hunting, and the situation of the three sea lions, he still wanted to ask, so he went over to ask.
The person in charge heard that the sea lion was brought with him, and his face became a little strange, but he still shook his head and said that he would definitely not allow it.
As for fishing and hunting, naturally there is no need to think about it.
When the rules of the competition were first designed, he listened to the department that arranged the event discuss fishing and hunting.
Fishing obviously doesn't have much tuna to catch, so it doesn't bother the fairness of the game.
However, the danger of this sport is too high, and if the contestants are greedy, it is easy to die, so it is banned.
After Chu Mingcheng finished understanding, he could only leave the trading center with regret.
If he can't fish and hunt, then he won't have that much advantage when he encounters large tuna that appears on the surface of the sea.
If he could fish and hunt, he felt that the first place would be his own, and now it can only be up to luck to see who encounters more large tuna.
Back on the Poseidon, Chu Mingcheng couriered the fish left for his father-in-law and mother-in-law and his parents.
Originally, he planned to go to Hangzhou with Jiang Luoluo to live for a few days, and then return to Wenshi for a few days, and then think about going to sea next time.
However, the fishing tournament is about to start on September 1st, and today is August 14th, and there is only half a month left.
At present, Chen Yang and Zhang Wei have not been to the open sea once, and they have not fished for tuna.
If he didn't bring it once, he would feel a little uneasy.
So in this half a month, they have to go to sea once, and then come back early to repair, ready to go to the magic capital to compete, so the time is relatively tight.
Chen Yang obviously knew this, so he asked: "Ah Cheng, since it is a tuna fishing competition held in the magic capital, does that mean that there are tuna to be caught in the Zhoushan fishing ground?" ”
Chu Mingcheng nodded: "There must be that, and there are quite a few." In the past, when the Baodao Strait and the east were not open, the fishermen of Xiamen City basically went to the Zhoushan fishing grounds when they went to the open sea. ”
"And there are also bluefin tuna in the Zhoushan fishing grounds, but there are not many. If you want to encounter more, you have to go close to the open sea, and the chance of encountering them on the Ryukyu side is relatively high. ”
Hearing that there were tuna in the Zhoushan fishing ground, Chen Yang knew it in his heart.
"In that case, then Ah Wei and I will fly back directly! We will drive the boat over, and when the time comes, we will go to the Zhoushan fishing ground to fish, and return to the magic capital directly, so the time will not be so tight. ”
"That way you don't have to go back and forth and waste fuel."
Chu Mingcheng thought about it and felt that it was indeed more convenient.
"Okay, I'll be waiting for you in the Demon Capital."
However, the matter on Chen Yang's side was resolved, but Jiang Luoluo's side couldn't stay with him all the time.
"Ah Cheng, I want to accompany you when the fishing tournament comes, so I have to go back these days and come back when the fishing tournament comes."
"Uh" Chu Mingcheng was a little stunned, but Jiang Luoluo did have his own affairs, and he couldn't always occupy her time, "Then the boat will stop here, and we will fly back together." ”
Jiang Luoluo shook his head: "There's no need, you guys have to go to sea in two days, it's too troublesome to go back and forth." I have a lot of things going on over there, and I'm going to perform somewhere else this time, so I can't go to sea with you, so you can stay here! ”
Since she said so, Chu Mingcheng no longer insisted.
He really didn't have much time to spend with her, so it was better to let her concentrate on finishing her work.
So, the group that had just boarded the boat stepped off the boat again and headed for the airport.
After saying goodbye to a few people, Chu Mingcheng was too lazy to cook, so he simply took a taxi to the City God's Temple Snack Street to eat steamed buns.
Most of these famous places may be pits.
But Chu Mingcheng didn't know much about the demon capital, and he couldn't find a more suitable place on the Internet for a while, so he came here to make do with it.
It took twenty tickets to walk into the City God Temple, and he walked around only to find that the snack street was behind, and there was no need for a ticket.
The big culprit is me?
City God's Temple earns twenty oceans with tears and blood?
Walking into the snack street, Chu Mingcheng saw all kinds of fried buns outside, as well as roast chicken and other meats.
I ordered three fried buns with different fillings, plus a bowl of drinking and a roast chicken, and it cost 173 yuan.
I found a place to sit down, and I was just about to taste the taste of the fried buns here, but I was suddenly tapped twice on the shoulder.
"Hey, hello life-saving benefactor, I didn't expect to meet you here."
Chu Mingcheng looked back in amazement, but found a beautiful woman standing behind him with a small satchel and a dinner plate in her hand.
"Shu Zichen?"
"Isn't it a surprise?" Shu Zichen smiled and sat opposite him, "I came here to play, I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence, you also came to play?" ”
"I'm here to sell fish, so I'm here to have a bite to eat." Chu Mingcheng was a little surprised to see her, and he didn't hide what he was doing here.
"Selling fish?" This time it was Shu Zichen's turn to be a little surprised, "Are you doing seafood wholesale?" ”
"I'm a professional fisherman, and I went out to sea to catch some tuna. There's a tuna market here, so I came here to sell it. Chu Mingcheng picked up a fried bun with crab roe, and a little juice suddenly flowed out after taking a bite.
Originally, he thought the taste was very average, but he didn't expect it to be good.
"Tuna?" Fishing is obviously not in Shu Zichen's cognition, but she is not interested in these things, and after chatting for a few words, she suddenly asked, "Didn't Ah Wei come here?" ”
"Ah Wei." Chu Mingcheng was stunned at first, he didn't expect her to ask Zhang Wei suddenly, and then his face became a little strange, "He came here, but he just left, it's a bit of a coincidence." ”
"That's it!" Shu Zichen's expression was very normal, and he didn't show anything.
But Chu Mingcheng had some desire to explore, and the gossip in his heart began to move.
His mouth was open, and he wanted to ask something, but he didn't know how.
But thinking that Zhang Wei seemed to be a little resistant to her, and she had nothing to do with herself, it didn't seem like anything to ask directly, so he said: "I heard before that you went to find Ah Wei, you won't like him, right?" ”
When Shu Zichen heard this, he didn't blush or be embarrassed, he just frowned: "I just want to apologize to him and invite him to a meal, after all, I almost hurt him at the beginning." ”
"When I went to look for him in the store, I found that he seemed to hate me a little, and he hid from me when he saw me."
Hearing this, Chu Mingcheng's face became even more strange. I'm a life-saver, why don't you invite a guest to dinner to thank you?
But he is very willing to do this kind of thing to dig a hole for his friends.
"He shouldn't hate you, but he's just more timid, and that incident made him a little shadowy. Personally, I think you should insist on it, and when he comes back to the magic capital in a few days, why don't you go and see him again? ”
"Really? Can you add your contact information, and you can tell me when he comes. ”
"No problem, I'll let you know when he's coming."
What is a bad friend, this is.
Chu Mingcheng didn't see the picture of Zhang Wei hiding from Shu Zichen last time, and this time he had to see everything, he was really curious about how Zhang Wei would react.
As for whether that product would harm Shu Zichen, Chu Mingcheng was not worried.
Zhang Wei has never harmed good girls, nor will he harm the women who are responsible for sticky people, for fear of being entangled.
