In today's society, the more open-minded and trendy a person is, the less likely they are to find someone to stay with for life. They can always find many flaws in their partner in life that they find intolerable.
They quickly end one relationship and quickly begin the next. So-called love is like a gust of wind, coming fast and going even faster. It rarely stays with one person for long, and its so-called "shelf life" is as short as the shelf life of food.
In this life, Chen Hong only wants to be a reef, living by the sea and watching her son grow up.
Until her son also became like the wind, no matter where he blew, occasionally returning to the seaside, his old mother was still there waiting for him. It didn't matter if he didn't come back; with the sea by his side, Chen Hong would not feel lonely.
Fantasies about love flashed through Chen Hong's mind; love was merely a diversion in life, not its entirety.
Chen Hong is now planning her route home for tomorrow. She has just emptied the fishing boat of all the fish, but her storage space is still full.
We need to find a way to sell some more fish, otherwise it will be even more troublesome when we return to Rongcheng. Compared to Shanghai, Rongcheng is a tiny market.
Selling too much fish in Rongcheng will affect market prices, which will impact the income of many local fishermen, and is not a good thing.
Chen Hong entered the space from the bathroom and began sorting through the fish. Looking at the dozen or so extra-large breeding tanks in the space, the baby fish inside had all grown to five or six centimeters long.
Now that the temperature is warming up, they should be able to survive easily if released outside.
Unloading these dozen or so fish tanks would yield several thousand kilograms more fish. But that still wouldn't be enough; we'd need to sell a large batch of fish to free up more space.
Suddenly, Chen Hong had a flash of inspiration. She wondered if the Shanghai branch of the Dragon Palace Hotel could help her secure a shipment. With that in mind, Chen Hong immediately contacted Zhang Baiqiang through her spatial storage.
Hearing in the middle of the night that Chen Hong had arrived in Shanghai, Zhang Baiqiang was stunned. "Why did you go to Shanghai? The fish catch is overflowing, why don't you go back to Rongcheng? What do you mean Shanghai is close by!"
"Oh my goodness, what do you want me to say? You're amazing! Let me think about who to contact. There is a branch in Shanghai, but I'll have to call you to ask about the specifics and see if they can take your goods. Wait for my call!"
Listening to Zhang Baiqiang's machine-gun-like tirade on the phone, Chen Hong smiled helplessly, "The plan has changed, I didn't expect that either!"
Less than ten minutes after hanging up, Zhang Baiqiang called back and told Chen Hong that the Shanghai branch could buy a batch of her goods, but not too much, at most two or three hundred thousand yuan worth.
Because their hotel has a fixed supplier, without prior preparation, this was the only portion of the fish catch they could provide for Chen Hong.
However, the Shanghai branch can introduce Chen Hong to several reliable partners with strong purchasing power. Together, they can distribute Chen Hong's million-dollar catch of fish.
I noted down the contact information of Wang Yuzhuo, the manager of the Shanghai branch, and sincerely thanked Zhang Baiqiang before ending my conversation with him.
Chen Hong immediately called Manager Wang Yuzhuo and gave a detailed introduction to the types and approximate quantities of the rare fish she wanted to sell.
They agreed to meet at the dock the next morning to hand over the catch. Manager Wang also promised to invite several seafood merchants to go and buy the catch together the next day.
The next morning, Chen Hong arrived at the dock at five o'clock and put all kinds of sea bream, grouper, lobster and crabs that were to be sold into the live water tank and live bait tank in advance.
After waiting for another ten minutes or so, Chen Hong received a call from Manager Wang Yuzhuo. They had arrived at the dock. Chen Hong turned on the ship's headlights to signal them, and the two sides finally made contact and met.
Five or six people boarded Chen Hong's boat with Manager Wang Yuzhuo. After exchanging pleasantries, they first checked the fish caught in the live water hold of Chen Hong's fishing boat.
Only after inspecting the goods did they happily decide to make the purchase, and they were very satisfied with the catch.
Although Chen Hong's catch this time didn't include tuna, it included various groupers, lobsters, crabs, sea bream, and other rare fish species, all of which were quite large and clearly not from nearshore fishing grounds.
These are all highly sought-after varieties in the market, and the leaders unanimously decided to buy up all the fish caught on Chen Hong's boat.
This boatload of fish contained no miscellaneous fish at all; every single one was a very large and rare species, as if they had been manually sorted in the sea. This was truly an extraordinary find.
After discussing it, the four families decided to divide the catch equally. Chen Hong's boatload of fish sold for a total of 1.43 million yuan.
They also left their contact information with Chen Hong through Manager Wang Yuzhuo, hoping that Chen Hong would contact them directly if she had any more high-value seafood in the future, and they would definitely eat it.
By the time the families had all transported their catch away, it was already past nine in the morning. Chen Hong invited Manager Wang Yuzhuo to have breakfast, but Manager Wang declined, as he still had to go back to oversee the hotel's daily operations.
Chen Hong could only give him several dozen kilograms of top-quality seafood. Now that she had come all the way from the sea, she couldn't offer any other gifts to express her gratitude. After all, it was a fishing boat, and only the catch was the most appropriate gift.
Chen Hong was so busy that she hadn't even had breakfast yet. Through the dock staff, she called a refueling truck and filled up the tank with fuel and ice. Chen Hong didn't go ashore again; she took Black Tiger and headed back to Rongcheng along the coast.
Unexpectedly, she discovered a small school of yellow croakers along the way. It's true what they say: sometimes you try to plant flowers, but they don't bloom; other times, you plant willows unintentionally, and they thrive.
