Chapter 54 [Big Yellow Croaker Reselling Plan]
The sun rose, and Lin Ze walked out with four family members.
Leaving the forest house and walking west, it didn't take long to see the West City Gate of Fengping County.
"Lin Gongzi."
When he went out of the city, he saw Lin Ze's patrol soldiers and officials around, and they all took the initiative to bow down slightly to say hello.
Obviously, these soldiers and officials have been explained by the superiors, and they must maintain enough respect for Lin Ze.
The patrol soldiers and officials are also considered to be well-known figures in Fengping County, and even they are so respectful to Lin Ze that they immediately made many ordinary pedestrians in the past remember Lin Ze's appearance and define him as a big man who cannot be offended.
For these greeting people, Lin Ze smiled and nodded in response.
Although such a gesture does not seem to be down-to-earth, with the social status he has achieved in the county at the moment, his willingness to respond to everyone's greetings can already be regarded as saving face.
Because of this, the soldiers and servants who greeted Lin Ze did not feel neglected, but were a little flattered.
Soon, Lin Ze walked out of the West City Gate with his family.
As far as the eye can see, there is a flat land paved with stone slabs, and further away is the wharf built near the Yangchun River.
Fengping County is an important material transfer station on this waterway.
There are many wooden boats moored in the wharf, many laborers are busy carrying goods here, there are many tea houses and wine shops built around the wharf, and there are many small vendors doing business here.
Standing at the gate of the city and looking at it for a while, Lin Ze didn't see anything that looked like a target of a famous man, so he walked towards a teahouse near the dock.
I plan to drink tea in this place where the three religions and nine streams converge to see if there is any additional gain.
On the way, people were seen selling their catches.
Some of these catches were caught in the nearby Yangchun River, and some were transported from Linhai County, Linhai County, about 300 miles away from Fengping County.
A large part of some of the seafood such as fish and shrimp that Lin Ze usually eats is bought here by the servants at home.
"Shopkeeper, how do you sell this fish?"
Lin Ze pointed to the live fish that the fish seller had placed in the wooden barrel of water, and asked with a smile.
"Childe, you are asking the right person, I am a good big yellow croaker, the meat is extremely tender and delicious, only eighty yuan per catty!"
When the fish seller saw Lin Ze's moon-white brocade robe embroidered with complex cloud patterns, he immediately became energetic and hurriedly promoted it.
The price of silk, the raw material used to make brocade clothes, is not exaggerated.
However, every trace of the pattern embroidered on the brocade contains the painstaking efforts of the embroiderer, which also leads to the high price of the brocade with complex patterns, and the people who can wear such clothes are either rich or expensive.
In fact, this set of clothes is indeed not cheap, Lin Ze spent five thousand yuan to buy it in the main world, and when converted into the currency of the other world, it is almost fifty taels of silver.
"Don't bluff me, the average fish only costs more than 20 yuan a catty, even if your yellow croaker is delicious, it is only about 40 yuan for a price, how can it be sold for 80 yuan a catty?"
Lin Ze said with a smile.
In an agrarian society, fish was not as valuable as pork.
The reason is also very simple, one is that ordinary people don't have so many seasonings to remove the smell and increase the flavor, and the taste of fish is very general for them.
The second is that fish contains very little fat, and the fat obtained from eating fish is not as rich as that of pork.
Therefore, even if the taste is far better than ordinary fish, it is already sky-high that it can be sold at the same price as pork.
In fact, lean meat is more expensive than fat meat in the Overworld, and this is also the result of the fact that people are not short of food after productivity has increased in recent decades.
Otherwise, relatively speaking, fatty meat that contains fat is more expensive.
At this moment, the fish in the barrel in front of Lin Ze is all yellow, and it is called yellow croaker in the main world, of course, it is also called yellow croaker in this other world, it is called yellow croaker.
The yellow croaker in the bucket weighs at least five catties, and it can be called a big yellow croaker.
The yellow croaker in another world is very cheap, even if you don't bargain and buy it with 80 wen a catty, it will be about 20 yuan a catty when converted into the price of rice.
And this wild big yellow croaker is placed in the main world, at least 5,000 yuan a catty, and some of the best products can be sold for tens of thousands of catties.
In the past, the large yellow croaker in the main world was also very cheap, but with the sharp decline in production after overfishing, coupled with people's pursuit of deliciousness, the price of this wild large yellow croaker has reached an extremely terrifying level.
In fact, Lin Ze wanted to enter Fengping County at that time, in order to buy large yellow croaker in bulk near this Ximen Wharf and sell it back to the main world.
One pound of fish, Lin Ze conservatively estimated that he could make a profit of five thousand yuan.
And this is not like a seasonal mountain treasure like matsutake mushroom, it is a long-term business that can be done all year round, if this business is done for a long time, Lin Ze feels that his net worth can soon reach an exaggerated level.
However, the plan couldn't catch up with the changes, Lin Ze didn't expect that he suddenly had an idea to get a coal mine, so he delayed until now to come to this Ximen Wharf and began to carry out his scheduled plan to resell the big yellow croaker in the two realms.
In fact, Lin Ze came to Ximen this time mainly not for the big yellow croaker, but to obtain a channel to learn superior martial arts.
It was only because he saw someone selling this big yellow croaker that Lin Ze temporarily remembered his plan that had been shelved.
"At first glance, you are a knowledgeable person, the reason why this big yellow croaker is expensive is because it is only produced in offshore waters, and these fish are transported from Linhai County, so they are sold more expensive."
"Son, if you are sincere, I will give you a price of sixty yuan a catty."
was bargained by Lin Ze, and the fish seller was not angry, explained with a smile, and took the initiative to reduce part of the price.
"You send this big yellow croaker to the Lin Mansion in Yunyan Lane in Ximen first, just say that Master Lin bought it, and I will drink tea in the teahouse in front, you go and ask your steward to come and talk to me about a big deal."
Lin Ze smiled and threw a silver ingot of one tael to the fish seller, and then walked towards the teahouse in front.
The fish sellers on the dock, as well as the laborers and others, all belong to a gang organization called the Cao Gang, and Lin Ze wants to buy fish in large quantities, of course, it is more convenient to find a manager.
"Okay, thank you, Childe."
The fish seller took the silver and said loudly in surprise.
This yellow croaker is only five or six catties, and it is only three or four hundred yuan, and the extra six hundred yuan is his reward.
It was a surprise that he couldn't make that much money selling fish here for four or five days.
So he hurriedly agreed, and asked the little grandson who followed him to sell fish to deliver fish to the Lin Mansion, and he went to inform the boss above.
