(Daily Life + Sea Foraging + Relaxed + Tycoon) Reborn back in 2002, transforming from a top corporate elite into a village rascal who used to steal chickens and dogs, Ye Cheng accidentally obtained...
"What? There's a big yellow croaker?" Xiao Hu instantly understood what Ye Cheng meant. He stepped over the pile of fish, took the big yellow croaker from Ye Cheng, and started looking at it.
"Right? You look at the scales, the color, and the mouth, right?" Ye Cheng asked eagerly, as he desperately needed approval.
"Brother, it really is a big yellow croaker."
After looking at them for a long time, Xiao Hu finally confirmed it. The two of them dared not throw them away carelessly anymore. They quickly found a water tank and put it on display for all the animals before slowly identifying them, afraid that they would die before they could be recognized, which would be a huge loss.
This net caught about 150 jin of fish, which wasn't a lot, and not all of them were large yellow croakers. The two of them picked and chose, spending more than an hour, and picked out most of the large yellow croakers, which weighed less than 80 jin.
These large yellow croakers were kept in a separate compartment and given oxygen.
Looking at the densely packed yellow croakers, Ye Cheng couldn't help but laugh.
"Brother, how much do you think a big yellow croaker can sell for?" Xiao Hu squatted by the cabin and looked at it. This wasn't a big yellow croaker, it was a gold bar!
"How should I know? Surely it should sell for 2000."
2000 means 2000 per jin (500g).
Ye Cheng had only seen the outrageous price of the large yellow croaker in a news report before.
It's about a restaurant in Shanghai where a group of people spent 400,000 yuan on a meal. The most expensive item was a large yellow croaker, weighing 7 jin (3.5 kg), which cost 15,000 yuan per jin, totaling over 110,000 yuan.
It costs 15,000 yuan per jin (500 grams). Of course, the main reason is that this big yellow croaker is heavy. The price of a big yellow croaker is different once it weighs more than 3 jin.
My current batch of large yellow croakers certainly won't reach that price, but it should be around 2000 yuan per jin. In any case, I've made a fortune this time.
Thinking that it could sell for 2,000 yuan per kilogram, Ye Cheng suddenly remembered something, reached out and gave Xiao Hu a sharp rap on the head.
"Damn, I just remembered, you threw one away earlier. If that had been a big yellow croaker, you would have lost a lot of money."
Xiao Hu had initially wanted to resist, but Ye Cheng's reminder immediately deflated him. "Huh? It can't be that bad, can it?"
If he were to actually throw away a large yellow croaker, putting aside the price, Xiao Hu felt that even God wouldn't let him off the hook.
"No, no, just be more careful next time. Let's go, it's about time to head back." Ye Cheng yawned.
It's already 2 a.m. Ye Cheng is exhausted after not having rested all day.
The two yawned as they steered the boat back to the dock, which was deserted in the dim light.
Ye Cheng didn't want to sell so many large yellow croakers to the docks; he wanted to contact Wang Ke to sell them.
So the two of them worked together to carry the large yellow croaker back, and then let Xiaohu go back to the boat to guard it. After all, there were still more than 100 pounds of other fish. This batch of fish could be sold directly at the dock after Xiaohu got up.
Young people are energetic and fall asleep quickly. Ye Cheng lay down at 4 o'clock, and when he woke up, the sun was already high in the sky. Ye Cheng picked up his phone and glanced at it. It was 10 o'clock. Damn, he can really sleep.
There was another message on my phone at 7 a.m.: Xiao Hu had sold all the fish there, making over 4,000 yuan, and then went home to catch up on sleep.
Oh, right, the large yellow croaker!
Ye Cheng remembered something, rolled over and jumped off the bed, but tripped over something on the ground and almost fell flat on his face in his daze.
He looked down and saw that Big Yellow was looking at him with a mournful expression, clearly unhappy that he had been stepped on.
"Hey, little brother, I'm so sorry, so sorry." Ye Cheng quickly squatted down and patted its big bald head.
"Are you hungry? Okay, I'll get you some food right away."
This guy is a big shot. Ye Cheng felt that this guy was even more powerful than the system. Yesterday, he made him veer to the right, and a huge yellow croaker actually came up in the net.
Although it could be due to the system, it doesn't stop Ye Cheng from spoiling it like this; it's still a bit lonely by itself.
Ye Cheng prepared a simple breakfast for Da Huang, since that was all it ever ate. He then went to check on the large yellow croaker.
Fortunately, they're all still alive, but their vitality has decreased a bit, so we need to sell them quickly.
He pulled out Wang Ke's phone number; it was more appropriate to contact him for this kind of wild yellow croaker.
After learning that Ye Cheng was familiar with Lao Wang and Xiao Rou, Wang Ke's attitude towards him improved considerably.
"Hey, Ye Cheng, what brings you here so early in the morning? Is there something good or something good to do? Haha." Wang Ke seemed to be in a good mood.
"Brother, I don't come to you unless I need something. I just got some fish and was wondering if you wanted some?"
"Sure, we're old acquaintances. Whatever kind of fish it is, as long as it's not too bad quality, I'll buy it for you."
"Large yellow croaker, wild-caught," Ye Cheng said softly, feeling a sense of pride as he uttered those words. Large yellow croaker, wild-caught, yes, that's how awesome it is.
There was a pause on the other end of the phone, then Wang Ke's voice deepened, "Are you sure it's a large yellow croaker, not a small yellow croaker?"
Ye Cheng smiled. "Brother, would I lie to you about this?"
“Okay, I’ll take them all.” Wang Ke readily agreed. Even with his high-end private kitchen, wild yellow croaker wasn’t something he could eat often. Now that he had some, of course he wanted to buy it.
"Around 80 jin (40 catties)." Ye Cheng looked at the water tank at his feet; it should be about right.
"How...how much?" Wang Ke stammered, "80? Are you sure it's 80 jin?"
Wild yellow croakers are expensive because they are rare. Normally, you're lucky to catch one or two. Ye Cheng caught 80 jin of them, thinking they were sardines.
"Brother, would I lie to you? Really."
There was a moment of silence on the other end, then he said seriously, "Okay, I'll drive over. You wait for me in the village. My car has special supplies and a water tank that simulates seawater, so you won't die on the way."
"Okay, I'll wait for you."
Since Wang Ke was willing to drive over, Ye Cheng was happy to make the trip himself. But who knows, he might accidentally kill the fish.
Wang Ke arrived quickly, reaching Ye Cheng's place in 40 minutes.
This was his first time here. When he saw Ye Cheng's small, dilapidated courtyard, he frowned. "No, Ye Cheng, are you pretending to be poor? You're so rich, why are you living in this run-down place?"
Ye Cheng led the people in, "Brother, this is how the village is. I can't build a villa all by myself, can I? Besides, it's comfortable here, and there's the breath of nature."
Wang Ke pursed his lips, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.
Upon entering the house, Wang Ke was somewhat surprised. "Damn, you have an air conditioner, a water heater, and a computer? You really know how to enjoy life. Other people are all show and no substance, but you're all show and no substance."
"Well, I'm not used to not having air conditioning or a water heater," Ye Cheng said honestly. He was used to air conditioning in his previous life, and he really felt uncomfortable without it now.
