Chapter 259: Delivering Information Alone

Chapter 259 Delivering Information Alone

Liu Dapeng ran into the cabin excitedly and politely said to Mr. Gu, "Mr. Gu, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Mr. Gu pointed at the abalone porridge, then at Gu Zhiren, a little embarrassed, "My father wants another bowl, is there any more?"

In all the bars he had been to, each person was always given a bowl of abalone porridge. How could anyone order another bowl for themselves?

In fact, he didn't want to say it, but unfortunately, his father finished the bowl in a few gulps and kept nagging in his ear.

Liu Dapeng secretly thanked himself for not drinking anything, as there were still two or three bowls of food left in the thermos lunch box. "Yes. I'll serve it to Mr. Gu right away."

He quickly filled a bowl and handed it to Gu Zhiren, "Mr. Gu, please enjoy."

Gu Zhiren took it and said with a smile, "Just call me Uncle Gu like Xiaoxuan and Chenze."

Liu Dapeng immediately took the opportunity to say, "Okay, Uncle Gu, there's more in the lunch box. After you finish this bowl, I'll serve you more."

"Okay. Thanks! I'll definitely be back for a third bowl."

Gu Zhiren drank to his heart's content.

Mr. Gu shook his head slightly. He couldn't do anything about his father and felt a little guilty towards Liu Dapeng.

Because he knew that the capacity of the thermal lunch box was limited, it would be good if everyone on the boat could have a bowl.

But his father wanted to drink three bowls in a row.

This is a forced grab of other people's quantity.

"Dad! Drink less abalone porridge and save some room for the grilled fish. Didn't you say you wanted to eat the fish you caught yourself?"

Gu Zhiren gulped down the bowl of abalone porridge in his hand, "That's right, but it doesn't affect my drinking this. Abalone porridge made with fresh abalone is delicious! The porridge made with the frozen and dried abalone you bought me before can't compare to this! Another bowl, please."

Liu Dapeng enthusiastically took the empty bowl, filled it again, and placed it in Gu Zhiren's hand.

Gu Zhiren continued to drink without hesitation.

Mr. Gu has never been able to stop his father, so he just pretends to ignore it.

He suspected that his father did it on purpose, just because he did not agree to order grilled fish fillets from the grilled fish fillet factory and was deliberately going against him.

The more he asked his father to drink less abalone porridge, the more he drank.

In his opinion, the domestic market for grilled fish fillets has already been occupied by others, and he does not want to interfere.

As for the foreign market, there are risks because there are no relevant standards for grilled fish fillets abroad.

Sometimes having standards is a form of protection; without standards, many pitfalls can easily arise.

The reason why we can order grilled small yellow croaker is that it has been sent for inspection and the inspection results fully meet the relevant foreign standards.

He also consulted professionals and learned that foreign standards for grilling small yellow croaker are not applicable to grilled fish fillets.

Get up and go outside to the deck to enjoy the night view.

The boat was already sailing on the sea, and the sails were swaying slightly in the sea breeze. He was wearing warm clothes and did not feel cold.

Mu Chenze walked up to him.

"Mr. Gu, you're not willing to consider the grilled fish fillets from our village factory because there are no relevant standards abroad, right?"

Mr. Gu didn't expect Mu Chenze to be such a sensible person. "That's right. What if the grilled fish fillets I ordered were shipped overseas and then the relevant standards were released overseas? If they don't meet the standards, should I ship them back or destroy them on the spot? I can't afford the loss. I know your father-in-law's company suffered a big setback in the food business overseas. Otherwise, the Wu family's company would help your factory sell grilled fish fillets."

Mu Chenze looked admiring, "Boss Gu is really well-informed."

Mr. Gu looked at the sea and said modestly, "I just happened to meet some friends."

Mu Chenze continued to persuade, "You don't plan to develop the domestic market for finely packaged grilled fish fillets."

"Precision-packaged grilled fish fillets? Yuan Yueban, Boss Hou, and the others have already captured the western and northern markets, while your factory's sales have already opened up the northwestern and northeastern markets. The eastern, southern, and southeastern markets are more competitive. They already have grilled fish fillets there, but the taste is a little different from yours. As for the southwestern region, I'll never go there in my lifetime. You don't need to persuade me anymore. I won't consider ordering grilled fish fillets for now until relevant standards are released abroad and the samples meet the standards. Then I'll come back to place an order."

Mu Chenze concluded from these words, "I will never go to the Southwest in my life." Mr. Gu could have developed the market for packaged grilled fish fillets in the Southwest, but he chose to give up?

Is there some important reason?

It’s not easy to ask him directly.

I plan to find an opportunity to ask Gu Zhiren.

Gu Zhiren suggested playing cards to pass the time, and personally came out to call his son and Mu Chenze back to the cabin.

More than two hours later, everyone came to the deck and prepared to fish.

Wang Mingchen prepared a small stool, a fishing rod, fish food, and a large wooden basin for the fish in advance...

Chu Xuan woke up at around eight in the morning and felt a little uncomfortable when he saw the empty seat next to him.

I don’t know what time Chen Ze will come back. I don’t know if he is still sea fishing or preparing to return.

I haven't seen him for just one night and I'm already missing him.

Thinking about the important things I still have to do today, I quickly adjusted my mood and got up to wash up.

After breakfast, I said hello to my mother-in-law, took Chu Tian’s information, and rode out on my bike.

First I went to the village office and called Min Yi to confirm that he was in the city, and made an appointment to meet in more than two hours.

I left the phone bill before riding my bike away from the village office.

I plan to store my bicycle at the bicycle storage in the county town and then take the bus to the city.

I just rode into town and met Wei Qiang.

Wei Qiang took the initiative to greet him, "Chu Xuan, it was too late last night, so I didn't call you and Mu Chenze. I'm off today, and to save some phone bills for the company, I wanted to go to your house and tell you in person about what I found in the woods last night."

Chu Xuan looked curious, "Tell me about it."

"There were indeed traces of three people in the woods last night. You and Mu Chenze should pay more attention to your safety these days. I heard that you two attend cram school in the county town a few nights a week. If the bad guys figure out your pattern, it could be detrimental to you two."

Wei Qiang somewhat understood why Chu Xuan was easily attracted by bad people.

I didn't expect that even after Liang Shi died, there would be someone to take over.

Chu Xuan looked grateful. "Thank you for your reminder. You and your colleagues should also pay more attention to your safety. After all, if you hadn't been there last night, those people might have successfully attacked Chen Ze and me."

"We're all from the same town, why are you being so polite to me?" Wei Qiang was about to leave when he suddenly thought of what happened last night. "Why are you alone today? Mu Chenze isn't with you?"

Chu Xuan's face remained calm. "He had something to do and couldn't come with me. I plan to leave my bike in the county town and take the bus to the city to meet my friends. Don't worry! Nothing will happen during the day."

"That's not necessarily true. Didn't Liang Shi want to kill you in broad daylight? How about this! I'm off today anyway, so I'll go to the city with you and you pay for my transportation? How about that?"

Chu Xuan firmly said no.

In the end, Wei Qiang was unable to persuade Chu Xuan and could only watch her ride away on her bike.

Chu Xuan didn't want Wei Qiang to be involved in this matter.

I arrived safely at the post office in the county town, locked my bicycle, took the receipt, and went to the bus stop to wait for the bus.

After the bus arrived, I found a seat by the window.

Then, a man came up wearing a hat and covering his mouth and nose with a scarf.

Sit in the seat behind Chu Xuan.

Chu Xuan was focused on the cloth bag in her hand and didn't notice the man.

Half an hour later, three strong men came up wearing hats and covering their mouths and noses with scarves...
