"We definitely have to keep them, Uncle. Have you decided on a buyer for the yellow croaker yet?"
Fu Wan wasn't too surprised by the price of the yellow croaker, after all, it was not only rare but also extremely difficult to catch.
Yellow croakers live in brackish waters, so fishermen rarely catch them in their fishing grounds.
Furthermore, the yellow croaker has extremely keen hearing; it can hear a fisherman's boat approaching and immediately hide.
Fu Wan and her team were able to successfully catch these six yellow croakers entirely thanks to the little killer whales. If it weren't for the killer whales chasing them away, these fish would probably have disappeared long ago.
When talking about customers who ordered yellow croaker, Fu San was full of energy.
"We've already secured one customer for this yellow croaker. You all know him; he's Sun Youcai, who runs a dried goods store."
It's understandable that Sun Youcai would sell him a yellow croaker, after all, he accompanied Fu Wan and the others to the shipyard the whole time.
"What about the others?"
Fu Ming asked impatiently, and Fu San pretended to be annoyed and said, "Sigh, Boss Zhang from the county town and his client from the port city, Boss Liu from the county town, and a big boss from the capital all say they want to order yellow croaker."
I couldn't agree to everyone, so I only invited a few wealthy individuals to come to my house first thing tomorrow morning to bid!
Since selling that bluefin tuna last time, Fu San has become quite skilled at bidding for fish.
Both sides are big bosses that are hard to offend, so the most direct approach is to offer the highest price.
At this point, Fu San still wanted to offer some advice to Fu Wan.
"Ah Wan, the maw of this yellow croaker might be quite troublesome to process. Are you sure you want to keep it?"
That's 100,000! If the bidding really starts, Fu San estimates that the final transaction price will definitely be higher than 100,000.
Fu Wan nodded again. It was just a yellow croaker; she could bear to part with it. This fish was so rare; she definitely had to keep the maw from one of them.
After all, who knows what the future holds!
Seeing her resolute attitude, Fu San stopped trying to persuade her.
He turned to Boss Fu and said, "Brother, when those bosses come tomorrow, I'm afraid I won't be able to handle it all by myself. Qiuju is also heavily pregnant. Why don't you and Awan come over then, and we can sell the yellow croaker together!"
"Okay, then we'll head over after breakfast tomorrow morning."
"Okay, I'll transfer the money for this batch of seafood to you tomorrow after I sell the yellow croaker."
Speaking of this, Fu San said with some regret, "The swordfish sold well. Mr. Li from the city bought it for 1,500 yuan. Your boat will need to be repaired for several days, which is really a waste of your time to make money!"
The goods at his purchasing station are now arguably the best in Master Fu's household, not only fetching high prices but also offering a wide variety.
The ship will need to be repaired for several days, which means Fu Wan and the others will be unable to go out to sea for several days.
"Third Uncle, don't worry, the ship will be repaired in a few days. However, only one ship will be able to go out to sea, so there may not be as much seafood as before."
Fu San waved his hand, "It's alright, a boatload of goods is not bad either."
Fu San didn't even dare to imagine the cargo that would be transported on this trip once the new ship from the shipyard came out.
After finishing his business, Fu San was about to go back home, as there were still a lot of things to do. However, when he turned around and saw the conch that Fu Wan was keeping at the kitchen door, he remembered something else.
"By the way, Wan, this morning Mr. Liu from the city called the village committee and asked if I could get him some lobsters."
Mr. Liu heard about this from the seafood shop owner who sold him baby lobsters last time. Since he would be coming to Fujia Village to buy yellow croakers tomorrow, he thought he would buy some baby lobsters to take back with him.
These little green dragons usually like to hide in coral reef caves, and you can hardly catch many with fishing nets; you have to dive to catch them.
Fu Wan thought it was nothing, but she didn't expect that she had been caught and another order had come in.
How many small green dragons do you want?
"I'll take as much as you can! Just get me about 10 or 20 pounds."
Although the boat is unusable, Fu Wan can go into the sea directly from the beach.
There should also be small green dragons in the sea near the village, so Fu Wan didn't think much about it and agreed.
Seeing that Fu Wan had accepted the task, Fu San didn't linger. After saying goodbye to Fu Laoda and the others, he went home.
"Ah Wan, when are you going to catch lobsters?"
Fu Wan thought for a moment and said, "Let's do it tonight!"
The little green dragon is more active at night than during the day, and it's also easier to catch it.
Catching lobsters requires nets and such, but Fu Wan's harpoon broke when she was shooting manta rays, and Fu Ming hasn't fixed it yet.
So she thought, why not just bring a harpoon?
The harpoon was also made by Fu Ming. He chose a bamboo stick that he could handle, wrapped it tightly with wire at the bottom, and sharpened the end of the wire to a point. The effect of spearing fish was excellent.
The group was busy in the yard when someone knocked on the gate again.
Who is it?
Fu Wan and the others were a little surprised; their house was really lively today.
The person knocking paused, then a voice with a hint of uncertainty rang out.
"Hello, is this Comrade Fu's home?"
Comrade Fu, it seems that this whole village belongs to Comrade Fu.
Fu Wan was amused by her own thought process and went over to open the courtyard gate while laughing.
The person outside the courtyard gate surprised her for a few seconds.
"Director Wang, what brings you here?"
They had just met that morning, and it was only around three or four in the afternoon, yet Wang Jianmin had already found his way to Fujia Village.
When Wang Jianmin saw Fu Wan, he breathed a sigh of relief. He had asked for directions the whole way, and at least he hadn't gone to the wrong place.
He hurriedly took a cloth bag out of the bicycle basket, and then carefully pulled out a few sheets of paper from it.
"Comrade Fu, this is the plan I just finished writing. Could you please take a look and see what you think?"
Fu Wan took the plan and glanced at it briefly.
Factory Director Wang probably wrote the plan as quickly as possible after they left, and then delivered it to her without stopping for a moment.
Although the plan was written hastily, the management philosophy expressed in it made Fu Wan once again affirm Wang Jianmin's abilities.
It seems the cannery is genuinely short of money, otherwise Wang Jianmin wouldn't be in such a hurry.
"Director Wang, I've read the plan, and there are no problems."
Why don't you come in and sit down, and we can discuss signing the contract again?
A few people standing at the doorway didn't look right either.
Wang Jianmin was overjoyed to hear this, but he felt a little embarrassed when he was about to enter.
"I came in a hurry and didn't buy much..."
Fortunately, he had brought a few cans of food with him when he came out, as was his habit.
"It's alright, you're a guest, come in and have a seat!"
Fu Wan and the others certainly didn't mind, and Ye Xiaocui even poured him a bowl of water.
She thought to herself, "That's the factory director, he's an official, after all!"
Wang Jianmin thanked her and sat down. From the plan she had just seen, Fu Wan could tell that Wang Jianmin had management skills, but what she was more concerned about now was the technology for making canned fish.
"Director Wang, if the cannery is going to make canned fish, do you have any experts who are good at researching this?"
