Chapter 363: The Snipe and the Clam Fight

The boss of Fu Man Lou immediately raised the price: "One thousand five hundred!"

The fish must be caught before the people from Jufulou arrive.

The price of fifteen hundred was offered, and Jiang Xia heard people around him exclaiming.

This is enough to show that fifteen hundred is indeed very high.

The boss of Fu Man Lou continued, "One thousand five hundred is already very high! Even if someone from Ju Fu Lou comes, they won't offer a higher price. I am very sincere. If you have any good goods in the future, you can send them to our restaurant, and I will buy them at a high price!"

Jiang Xia shook his head, "We really..."

Before he could finish his words, a voice interrupted: "One thousand six hundred!"

What do you mean Jufulou won't offer a higher price? They are not worse than Fumanlou.

Xu Wen'an hurriedly ran onto the boat, glanced at the owner of Fumanlou and said with a smile, "Boss He, I'm sorry, this fish belongs to Jufulou. This girl's family and I have already agreed that any good fish will be supplied to Jufulou first."

After Xu Wen'an finished speaking, he looked at Jiang Xia and said with a smile, "Comrade Xiao Xia, this fish is 1,600 yuan. We at Jufulou want it."

One thousand six hundred, which is four yuan per pound, is really a very high price, much higher!

The boss of Fu Man Lou glanced at Xu Wen'an and said, "Sister, one thousand seven hundred! I want it!"

Xu Wen'an was furious. He knew that the boss of Fumanlou was deliberately making trouble today.

But he had to accept it.

Xu Wen'an gritted his teeth secretly: "One thousand seven hundred and fifty."

The boss of Fu Man Lou laughed and said, "One thousand nine hundred and fifty!!"

Xu Wen'an was so angry that he almost couldn't hold back his anger: "Two thousand!"

If the boss of Fu Man Lou offers more, he won’t want it! Two thousand yuan is already the limit. If it’s more than two thousand yuan, it’s not worth buying it. It’s too much of a loss.

He paid two thousand to buy the fish, betting that the city's commerce staff would give them Jufulou to receive the investor team tomorrow, so he wouldn't lose money.

It would be even better if we could order food from Jufulou for the next few days.

Of course, the boss said that he would spare no expense to make this reception a success. As long as he does a good job of it, there will be many more opportunities to order food from their Jufulou in the future.

The boss of Fu Man Lou said with a smile: "Ju Fu Lou is still rich and powerful! We at Fu Man Lou can't compete with you, so we'll give it to you!"

Xu Wen'an was so angry that he vomited blood.

The other party deliberately raised the price to one thousand nine hundred and fifty, forcing him to lower it to two thousand, and then refused.

He had to swallow this loss again.

There was no way. All the precious seafood in the past few days had been taken away by Fumanlou.

He looked for some fresh and good fish but couldn't find any.

"Comrade Xiao Xia, we at Jufulou want this grouper, two thousand yuan." At this point, Xu Wen'an was reluctant to part with it, but he still shouted it out in a very generous manner.

It is necessary to leave an impression of the grandeur of Jufulou on everyone, so that in the future when fishermen catch good seafood, they will think of Jufulou first and send it there.

People around were envious.

How could I not be envious? I could earn more money from one fish than from all the fish in their boat.

"Okay!" Jiang Xia tried hard to hold down the corners of his mouth so that he could smile just right instead of laughing too much.

Today she saw the true situation of the fisherman benefiting from the quarrel between the snipe and the clam.

Xu Wen'an asked again: "Are there any other good seafood?"

Jiang Xia: “Yes!”

The boss of Fu Man Lou pointed at the lobsters and other fish in the bucket and said, "I want all the lobsters, sandfish, squid, mackerel, hairtail, tiger prawns, and shrimp! One hundred dollars!"

Xu Wen'an: "..."

Coming again?

Jiang Xia smiled and said, "Thank you, boss. But it was Manager Xu who asked for it first, so I had to sell it to him first. Sorry!"

Jiang Xia asked Xu Wen'an again: "Manager Xu, do you want it? I can give it to you at a lower price, fifty yuan will be enough."

Jiang Xia's words made Xu Wen'an feel completely relieved. He smiled and said, "No need. I'll take the 100 yuan."

The boss of Fumanlou just wants to cheat Jufulou again.

By the way, destroy the relationship between the two.

The fish and shrimp he just wanted were only worth seventy or eighty yuan.

I didn't expect that a young woman from Jiang Xia would be so good at dealing with people. She knew when to stop and even took the initiative to suffer a small loss to make Xu Wen'an feel better.

Since he failed to sow discord and it had nothing to do with him, he got off the boat and left.

Xu Wen'an didn't have that much money on him, so he asked, "Are you the only one here?"

"No, my lover went to call you... and is back."

Zhou Chenglei strode onto the boat, greeted Xu Wen'an, and then said, "I just called you and told you that you were not here."

Xu Wen'an smiled and said, "I just happened to come to the dock to buy seafood. I want your grouper, as well as the lobster, sandfish, squid, mackerel, hairtail shrimp, and prawns. It's two thousand one hundred dollars in total. I don't have that much money on me. Can you come back to the restaurant with me to get the money?"

Two thousand one hundred? Zhou Chenglei was surprised, but he didn't show it on his face. He nodded and said, "Okay."

So Xu Wen'an went to call a tractor to transport the fish back to the restaurant.

When the fish were taken off the boat, many people gathered around to watch.

Someone asked how much such a big fish was worth, and was shocked to hear it was two thousand yuan.

Even if such a big fish was valuable, it wouldn't be worth two thousand yuan, right? So someone described in vivid detail how two big restaurants fought over a fish, and in the end Jufulou won.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

This has invisibly given Jufulou another advertisement.

Zhou Chenglei heard something vaguely and understood what was going on.

Xu Wen'an heard everyone say, "It seems that Jufulou is still the best!"

“The seafood at Jufulou is always delicious.”

After hearing these words, he felt a little better.

At least I gained some fame!

Once your reputation spreads, you will never lack customers.

"You lie on the recliner, I'll be back soon." After the fish was loaded onto the tractor, Zhou Chenglei gave Jiang Xia some instructions, took two clean food boxes, and followed the tractor to the restaurant to get the money.

Most of the fish had been sold, and there were still some not-so-valuable mudskippers, dragonhead fish, and croaker left. Jiang Xia asked if anyone wanted any.

A trader gave Jiang Xia twenty yuan and he sold it directly.

The trader asked Jiang Xia to give him the remaining fish and shrimp, but Jiang Xia refused.

These miscellaneous fish and shrimp can be used to feed fish, they don’t sell them.

Zhou Chenglei came back half an hour later and brought two boxes of food.

He ordered food at Jufulou. It was already past eleven forty. Because they were going out to sea today, he had breakfast early because he was afraid that Jiang Xia would be hungry.

Zhou Chenglei gave the lunch box to Jiang Xia and asked her to eat first while he went to drive the boat.

Jiang Xia said, "Let's eat together. Let's set sail after we are full! Otherwise the food will get cold."

After hearing this, Zhou Chenglei had dinner with her before leaving on the boat.

This time, Zhou Chenglei drove the boat straight to the waters of Abalone Island to feed the fish.

Jiang Xia felt sleepy after eating, so she lay down on the recliner and fell asleep.

An hour later, Zhou Chenglei drove the boat to the location where the net cages were placed and stopped.

As soon as the boat stopped, Jiang Xia woke up. She pulled the coat covering her body and sat up: "Are we there yet?"

"Well, I'll go feed the fish first." Zhou Chenglei said as he put on his diving suit.

"Okay, be careful."

Zhou Chenglei responded, threw a net bag of bait into the sea, then held the tube in his mouth and jumped into the sea.

After Zhou Chenglei dived to the bottom of the sea, Jiang Xia took out a fishing rod to fish.

Zhou Chenglei modified this boat and made a special slot to hold fishing rods. It was made specifically for Jiangxia, so that Jiangxia doesn't have to worry about being pulled into the sea by big fish when fishing.

Just as Jiang Xia threw the bait down, a fishing boat that looked exactly like hers approached.

It’s the second room’s fishing boat.

When the boat approached, Li Xiuxian took a look at the fourth room's fishing boat and found no fish.

She was surprised and asked, "Xiao Xia, you didn't catch any fish this morning?"

Could this fishing boat really be so unlucky?
