Ah-Can pointed at the great white shark and talked at length about his experience yesterday afternoon.
What Feng Jiafa and his group heard was truly shocking.
Especially the part about fighting the great white shark.
Of course, Ah-chan wasn't foolish enough to reveal the submachine gun; he had to keep it a secret.
He only said he took a gun with him, and left it to them to guess what kind of gun it was.
It's not unusual to have guns on board; many fishermen carry guns on board for their own safety.
"Finally, Ye Ge shot him in the eye, and he struggled for a while before finally dying."
Old Zhu said with envy, "You guys are really lucky. You even managed to find fish on your way back."
"You're really lucky."
Feng Jiafa shook his head. "But it was dangerous. Luckily, I brought a gun, otherwise, facing this great white shark would have been very dangerous."
"It's a pity it's a shark. If it were any other fish, it would be worth a fortune for its size."
Old Lin changed the subject and asked Feng Jiafa, "Afa, how much are you offering to buy it?"
Feng Jiafa looked wary: "Why are you asking this?"
"What else could he be doing? Old Lin is definitely trying to steal your business."
Old Zhu chuckled and said, "I'm actually quite curious to know what price you'll offer."
Feng Ye and his team had always sold their goods to the Feng family; he hadn't originally intended to do anything else.
But at this point, they also wanted to get involved.
It's true that sharks aren't worth much, but a shark this big still has room for a premium.
For no other reason than its enormous size, there's bound to be a boss willing to pay a higher price than normal to acquire it.
Moreover, the fins of this great white shark alone are worth a lot of money.
Although they had already decided to offer the great white shark to the goddess Mazu, it didn't stop Feng Ye and his group from wanting to know how much the great white shark was worth.
Therefore, everyone kept quiet and listened to their bidding.
Feng Jiafa said, "You still want to compete with me? Keep dreaming."
After saying something to Lao Zhu and Lao Lin, he turned to Feng Ye and said, "Feng Ye, I won't make money off this great white shark. I'll contact the boss and give you whatever price he offers."
Upon hearing this, Lao Zhu and Lao Lin knew that they had no chance at all.
It's not that they can't find a boss, but they don't have Feng Jiafa's boldness.
They're naturally unwilling to work for free without earning any money.
Feng Ye hadn't expected it to turn out this way, but this wasn't what he wanted.
"Uncle Fa, can you give me a price estimate, a rough range?"
Feng Jiafa thought for a moment: "Let's keep it at least 500, maybe 700 or 800 if it goes up. After all, it's just a shark, so even with a premium, it can't be too high."
Feng Ye now felt more confident.
It's at most 800 yuan, nothing special.
"Never mind then, I won't sell it."
"What? Not for sale?"
Feng Jiafa's eyes widened. "Why not sell it? 800 yuan isn't enough? This is just my estimate. I already said I won't make any money off you. I'll give you whatever price I ask for."
"Not for sale..."
"Why are you keeping such a big fish if you're not going to sell it? You have to have a reason."
"Hehe, we're offering this to Mazu, so of course we can't sell it."
Ah-chan finally couldn't hold back and interjected with a laugh.
"ah!"
Feng Jiafa's disappointed face immediately turned to surprise.
He shook his head and smiled wryly, "It seems you guys made a lot of money during your month-long trip, so you don't care about a few hundred yuan."
Old Zhu gave a thumbs up and praised, "Magnificent."
"Looks like you guys really struck it rich."
Old Lin echoed this sentiment.
"Not at all, not at all. I did make a little money, but not much."
Feng Ye smiled and waved his hand, "Besides, the Goddess Mazu blessed us with a safe return, so what's a fish she offered?"
"That's true, but who can be as generous as you?"
"Yes, a fish that costs several hundred yuan is given away so easily. Only you, Ah Ye, could do something like that."
"No one else can earn as much money as Ah Ye! The more he earns, the more generous he is naturally."
"You flatter me."
Feng Ye smiled modestly, "You take your time looking at it, we'll go get to work first."
Then, he, A-Can, Xiao Guowen, and Du Minhui turned around and carried baskets of fish out of the hold and unloaded them onto the dock.
Xiao Yunhu carried his luggage off the boat and went to the village to call for Secretary Xiao.
All the fish caught by the two boats were unloaded onto the dock and then transported to Feng Jiafa's shop.
Although the fishing trip was short yesterday afternoon, we caught quite a few fish.
Besides the useless herring and other fish that were thrown back into the sea, there were still a little over a thousand kilograms of fish.
However, after deducting the worthless miscellaneous fish, only about 400 jin (200 kg) of fish are left that can be sold.
Borrowing Feng Jiafa's cart, Feng Jiaqing and Feng Jialing pushed the worthless fish back to the workshop first.
Everyone else stayed in the shop to help move things around and wait for Secretary Xiao to bring people over so they could get the great white shark ashore together.
However, the goods weighed only 400 jin (200 kg), and they were all sorted, so weighing them was quick.
In less than ten minutes, they were all weighed.
The four-pound yellow croaker surprised Feng Jiafa.
Don't be fooled by the fact that this thing weighs less than a fraction of a great white shark; its value is not much different.
The price was very attractive; Feng Jiafa offered a unit price of 165 yuan, and the weight was 4.2 jin (approximately 2.6 catties).
This fish alone costs about 700 yuan, it's just 7 yuan short.
The other goods, when sold together, brought in 421 yuan.
