The area where the jellyfish was discovered was very close to the Dongtou Village pier; the Xuri ship docked in just over ten minutes.
Many fishing boats were moored at the pier, all of which had been returning from the safe harbor.
Some people will take the opportunity to go out and haul in a couple of nets, while others will drive back directly for various reasons.
Feng Jiafa sat with his legs crossed at the shop entrance, a cigarette in one hand and a teapot in the other.
The weather wasn't too hot, and there was a gentle sea breeze, making it very pleasant.
He was stunned for a moment when he saw the Rising Sun enter the port. After regaining his senses, he hurriedly put down the teapot, pushed the cart, and went over.
When he arrived, the Rising Sun had just come to a stop, and Feng Ye jumped off the ship while holding onto the mooring rope.
What good stuff did you get today?
Feng Jiafa got off the cart and jumped onto the boat while asking questions.
"Are you a mind reader? How did you know we got our hands on some good stuff?"
Feng Ye answered with a smile, while tying the cable to the wooden stake on the dock.
"Huh, there really is one?"
He had only asked casually, but upon hearing this, his eyes immediately lit up.
"You went out to set sail early this morning and came back so late, I guessed you went out to cast your nets twice. Tell me, what good catch did you get?"
"Only a little over a thousand catties of mullet..."
"Mullet, what kind of good stuff is that?"
Feng Jiafa was somewhat disappointed.
"Mullet is indeed not a good catch, but I haven't finished speaking yet, have I?"
"Anything else?" His hope rekindled. "Can you speak without pausing for breath? Uncle Fa can't handle sudden shocks."
"Uncle Fa, you were the one who rushed in to interrupt, so why are you blaming me?"
"Okay, okay, it's my fault, alright? Now tell me what else is there?"
Just then, Ah-Can brought out a basket of fish and said smugly, "This is it, Uncle Fa, you should see for yourself."
"you……"
Feng Jiafa shook his head and smiled, then leaned closer to take a look and his eyes widened in surprise.
This basket contains thick-lipped rock perch.
"This...this is Yanzi Huadan?"
There was a hint of disbelief in his voice.
Feng Ye smiled and said, "That's right, it's a thick-lipped rock perch. This is considered a good catch, isn't it?"
"Yanzi Huadan is a rare sight here, so it's definitely a good catch. How much did you catch? Is this whole basket full?"
Feng Jiafa rubbed his hands together excitedly.
"Not much. Besides this basket, there's another basket, less than 100 jin."
Feng Ye answered casually.
"So many? That's great! Quickly, take them to my shop to be weighed."
Feng Jiafa excitedly ran over to help move the goods.
Soon, baskets of fish were unloaded from the boat and pushed to Feng Jiafa's shop to be weighed.
As Feng Ye had predicted, the mullet weighed a total of 1222 jin (approximately 616 catties).
The purchase price offered by the Feng family was 90 cents, and they added 20 cents to round it up to 1100 yuan.
The thick-lipped rock perch was heavier than expected, exceeding 100 jin (50 kg) and reaching 102 jin and 6 liang (300 kg and 300 ounces).
"Uncle Fa, what's the price of thick-lipped rock perch?"
After weighing it, Feng Ye asked slowly and deliberately.
Feng Jiafa replied with a beaming smile, "Thick-lipped rock perch is a good thing. I'll give you a good price: 5.2 yuan per jin. How about that? Tiger grouper is only 5.5 yuan."
"Can."
Feng Ye and A-Can both nodded in satisfaction.
This price is indeed quite reasonable.
In this way, the income from the thick-lipped rock perch reached 533.52 yuan.
Feng Jiafa used an abacus to calculate: "I'll round it up for you too, so it's 534 yuan."
What else was there to say? Feng Ye and A-Can readily accepted.
Then, the other goods were weighed.
It was not bad; it sold for a total of 214 yuan.
Today was another great day, with a total income of 1848 yuan.
After stuffing the large sum of money into their pockets, the two turned to leave, but Feng Jiafa quickly said, "Don't rush off. Don't you want Emperor Starspot's money anymore?"
"Did the Emperor Star Spot sell?" Ah-chan asked excitedly.
“Yes.” Feng Jiafa nodded. “It was taken away this morning. Because it was big enough, we negotiated a price of 38 yuan per jin, which was 2603 yuan in total.”
Feng Ye and A-Can exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with surprise.
To be honest, this price was a bit beyond Feng Ye's expectations.
This was a price he hadn't expected; he had thought he could only get a maximum of 30 yuan per kilogram.
Although he knew that for grouper, the bigger the fish, the better it tasted and the higher the price.
But I never expected it to be this high, a full 8 yuan higher per unit.
"Uncle Fa, you're not kidding, are you?"
Ah-chan couldn't help but confirm again.
Feng Jiafa said irritably, "Why would I lie to you? It wouldn't do me any good."
Ah-Can chuckled sheepishly, "This price is too high; I can hardly believe it."
"The price of good things cannot be judged by common sense. This Emperor Star Spotted Pigeon is so big, let alone just 30 yuan, it is possible that it could sell for more."
Feng Ye agreed with what Feng Jiafa said.
Good things are rare and hard to come by; they can be very expensive.
For wealthy people, as long as the product is good enough, the price doesn't matter.
"My commission is 130 yuan, and the remaining 2473 yuan is here. Please click on it."
As Feng Jiafa spoke, he took out a stack of money that he had already counted from the drawer.
Feng Ye took it and counted it: "The number is correct, just right."
"That's good."
Feng Jiafa then took out another receipt and said, "I guess you don't have that receipt on you, so you don't need to bring it over. Just sign this one."
