Chapter 116 The Least Profitable Time at Sea
Ye Qing nodded.
He has no problem.
Let Kangzi open the last live fish warehouse. The conger eels inside were still darting around happily, stacked up layer by layer, and it was impossible to count how many there were.
Huang Xiaopang was overjoyed and shouted, "I'll go."
"Mr. Ye, you are so amazing!"
“So many moray eels!”
"Gray eels, white eels, and money eels!"
He was shouting and yelling.
Ye Qing said: "Since I promised Brother Ye, I must do it."
"We didn't prepare enough this time, so we only caught 200."
"Is that enough?"
Fatty Huang was stunned and cried out, "This...this...so many?"
He turned his head and looked at Lao Ma with a look of help.
Old Ma coughed and said, "Xiao Huang."
"Brother, please help me. I need forty gray eels, 150 per pound."
"You're welcome."
Gray eels are the most abundant, and they are my favorite to eat. It would be a waste to give them the higher-quality conger eels, so I just have to deal with them casually.
Fat Huang sighed.
When you need help, call him Chef Huang; when you don’t need help, call him Xiao Huang.
He looked at Ye Qing and said awkwardly, "Mr. Ye, actually... I only need 60 conger eels. Gray eels are 150 per pound, and money eels are 200 per pound!"
"Old Maga and I can eat half of it together."
Ye Qing frowned slightly.
The thing he was most worried about happened.
If these hotels purchase the fish, their bids are high, but the quantity they can get is not large. It is okay for precious fish, the more precious the seafood is, the easier it is to sell.
After all, the big boss has plenty of money and friends.
But this conger eel is only about 100 yuan per pound, which is neither expensive nor inexpensive. This time, Wang Ye asked him for help because there was a demand.
result.
People don't need that much.
Blame him for catching too many?
Kangzi suddenly became a little anxious. What should he do with the remaining one hundred conger eels?
Ye Qing looked at Lao Feng and the others.
Lao Feng and his friends also have ideas about these conger eels.
They have plenty of channels to distribute these conger eels. Conger eels, like hairtail, are very common. Not only can they be sold to restaurants, they can also be sold to supermarkets.
However, this price is definitely not as high as the ones offered by Lao Ma and Huang Xiaopang.
Without waiting for Ye Qing to speak, Lao Feng said, "Qingzi, this isn't the first time we've dealt with each other."
"We can have these moray eels."
“But the price isn’t that high.”
"Gray conger eels are 120 yuan per jin, and white conger eels are 100 yuan per jin."
Ye Qing thought for a moment and said, "There aren't many white eels left, so I won't sell them. This will save you the trouble of distributing them."
Old Feng nodded, this would naturally be better.
Next.
It's physical activity time.
Weighing.
Move the fish.
"1485 jin of rice and fish, 80 yuan per jin, a total of 118,800 yuan."
"2780 catties of garfish, 60 yuan per catty, a total of 166,800 yuan."
"2295 jin of hairtail, 75 yuan per jin, a total of 172,125 yuan."
When the vendors and fishermen heard that there were more than 2,000 kilograms of hairtail, they all started talking about it.
“I actually caught so many.”
"And it's handheld, not with a row hook, how can you catch so many!"
"This guy must be exhausted to death."
Kangzi boasted, "It's only been a few hours of fishing."
"If the school of hairtail hadn't dispersed, we would have caught even more."
Zhang Jun was quite modest: "It was mainly my brother who caught them."
"Kangzi and I together only caught half of it."
Kangzi nodded and called out, "Qingzi, why don't you share your experience with everyone?"
Seeing Li Shi moving the conger eel, Ye Qing quickly stepped forward to help.
He is busy.
It's Kangzi who has to do the job of pretending to be cool for him.
Settle with Huang Xiaopang first.
"41 eels, a total of 110 jin, 200 yuan per jin, a total of 22,000 yuan."
"19 gray eels, totaling 57 jin, 150 yuan per jin, totaling 8550 yuan."
Settle the accounts with Lao Ma again.
"40 gray eels, totaling 131 jin (approximately 150 yuan per jin), totaling 19,650 yuan."
Lao Feng and the others still got together.
"330 jin in total, 150 yuan per jin, a total of 39,600 yuan."
Ye Qing was quite surprised.
It turned out that he worked hard for a whole day and two nights, swimming around in the sea with electric eels looking for conger eels, but in the end he got the least money.
Due to this huge loss, I could only earn 89,800 yuan with tears.
Including the rice fish, cod, hairtail and flower crab, the income from this trip barely exceeded 500,000!
Except for the rice and fish, he kept some of the rest for himself.
It's such a tiring trip out to sea, you should at least reward yourself.
There is nothing much to say about the texture and taste of flower crabs and white eels. They are delicious after all. Most importantly, they both have the effect of relieving rheumatism.
He asked Kangzi to take some each.
Uncle Ba has rheumatoid arthritis, so he shouldn't go out to sea. But fishermen rely on this for their livelihood. They have to earn money to support their families and can't rest.
Let’s talk about it later.
There is no idle person on Longwei Island. Even the elderly, as long as they can still move, will always find a way to make money.
It will not only reduce the burden on yourself but also on your children.
There's no way to persuade him about this.
All Ye Qing could do was to prepare some of this seafood and send it over as a token of his appreciation.
Huang Xiaopang took the conger eel and left.
Because the need was so urgent, they could only place their hopes on Ye Qing. Unexpectedly, the surprise was too big for him to handle.
Wang Ye was also very embarrassed when he found out, and could only think to himself that next time Ye Qing came to Haibin City, he would definitely take Ye Qing out for some fun to make up for this mistake.
Lao Ma didn't leave.
He was planning to wait a while. It wasn't just Ye Qing who was lucky. Other fishermen also had good luck occasionally. Before Ye Qing came, he had already caught several mackerel weighing more than 300 yuan per kilogram.
Lao Feng and his team reaped huge rewards. Ye Qing's trip to the sea this time made them earn a lot of money.
Delicious.
certainly.
They also collected seafood from other fishermen, including Uncle Ba's sea bass and sea wolf fish. Joking aside, they had to do profitable business.
Not to mention sea bass, they can even sell flying fish for profit.
This is how vendors make money.
Kangzi came over to help, carrying flower crabs and white eels. Uncle Ba thought he was showing off and shouted angrily, "You are being so arrogant with your father, aren't you?"
"Is this what you mean by not gaining much?"
"What is more?"
Kangzi looked innocent and said, "Of course it's more than you."
Uncle Ba: “…”
He was speechless after being criticized. After all his hard work, he barely sold more than 10,000 yuan. After deducting the cost of gas and labor, he only earned a few thousand yuan!
Compared with Ye Qing?
What a joke.
There is absolutely no comparison!
He estimated that even Kangzai earned more than him!
It's outrageous!
Kangzi is just a boatman!
This moment.
Uncle Ba even thought about working as a boatman on Ye Qing's fishing boat.
Kangzi saw that his father's face looked strange, and he said hurriedly: "Qingzi is honoring you."
Uncle Ba took it and his expression became a little better: "Work hard with Qingzi!"
Kangzi nodded repeatedly: "Of course."
After packing up the fishing boat, Ye Qing and his companions got off the boat chatting and laughing.
Ye Qing transferred 30,000 yuan to his brother-in-law Zhang Jun, 20,000 yuan to Kangzi, and 10,000 yuan to Li Sanhe.
Kangzi shouted, "Why are there so many?"
Zhang Jun also looked over curiously.
After a while, Li Sanhe called.
Ye Qing smiled and said, "The extra is a bonus."
"What?"
"Any comments?"
Kangzi quickly shook his head.
I was so happy when my boss gave me a bonus.
He had saved 30,000 yuan before, and got another 50,000 yuan from Qingzai. Adding the 20,000 yuan now, he has 100,000 yuan in his hands.
For him, this is a huge sum of money.
If he wasn't picky, he could go buy a car right now.
But my girlfriend's family has requirements. The car must be worth more than 200,000 yuan.
but.
At this pace, I will be able to save enough money to buy a car by next month at the latest!
Kangzi was so happy that he quietly walked aside and called his girlfriend to share the good news.
Not to mention Zhang Jun.
He earns more.
The money he earned from going out to sea with Ye Qing these times was more than what he had earned in the previous few years. If he hadn't been walking with Ye Qing, he would definitely have jumped for joy.
Ye Qing and Li Shi were the calmest.
The money earned this time at sea was quite a bit, which was the least Ye Qing earned except for the first time during his several trips to sea, so there was nothing to be excited about.
Li Shize didn't know how much money he got.
He is not good at using a mobile phone. Even if there is money in it, he doesn't know how to use it. He might even be cheated by bad people, so the money is all with Li Sanhe.
The fishermen at the dock looked at Ye Qing with undisguised envy and jealousy in their eyes.
At the outermost edge.
Cai Ya was also there, feeling very complicated. If Ye Qing had not refused him the job of a boatman, he could have made as much money as Li Kang.
He was annoyed, depressed and frustrated. He turned his head to look at the middle-aged man beside him and said, "Uncle, are you really willing to take me out to sea?"
The middle-aged man touched the scar on his brow bone, which was left by an accidental injury while going out to sea, and said, "Well, you can help me keep an eye on Ye Qing. Whenever he goes out to sea, we will go out to sea at the same time."
Cai Ya was stunned and asked, "Are you going to compare yourself with him?"
"Uncle, forget it."
"I'm not saying you can't compare to Ye Qing. Ye Qing's luck is simply unbeatable!"
Guan You smiled coldly and said, "Yes, let's compare."
"Can you do this?"
Cai Ya hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "I can do it."
Ye Qing didn't know that someone had been targeting him. If he knew, he would find out that this middle-aged man was the owner of the fishing boat who had followed him before.
Just as he was about to leave the dock, he was stopped by Zong Wen and Zhou Yingying.
Seeing the two people, Ye Qing was stunned at first, and then a thought flashed through his mind. Fortunately, he had just made money, because he was about to start burning money.
