"Why? Can you give me a reason?"
“Those fishmongers make their living from squid during this fishing season, and I can’t afford to offend them too much.”
"What does it have to do with you that I buy squid from fishermen?"
“If you were to sell the dried squid yourself, it would naturally have nothing to do with me; but since you are selling it to me, then it does matter.”
Xiao Guowen thought for a moment and nodded, "Alright, it doesn't matter whose it is, it's all going to cost money anyway."
"I'm glad you understand. Also, dried squid is best when it's lightly dried, not salted."
"Understood, dried squid tastes better and is tastier."
"Yes, currently the market is full of salt-dried squid. Lightly dried squid will have a slight advantage and should sell better. If we need to stock up on salt-dried squid later, we'll let you know."
"Sure. And the price? What price do you charge?"
"I did a rough calculation, and it's about 8 yuan, but it hasn't been finalized yet."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Guowen was immediately overjoyed: "This price is acceptable."
Currently, the price of squid is 1.1 yuan. Based on the calculation that six catties of squid yield one catty of dried squid, one can earn an extra 1.4 yuan.
The price will definitely fall further, and then you'll make even more money.
Feng Ye laughed and said, "Of course we have to make you money. Otherwise, why bother drying squid? Why not just sell fresh seafood?"
"Yes, the boss is generous."
Xiao Guowen gave a thumbs up and was about to say goodbye when he suddenly remembered something and quickly asked, "What about cuttlefish eggs? Do you buy them?"
"Don't you often go to the county to buy fish? You can bring some with you to sell while you're there."
"I don't go there every day, and this thing doesn't stay for long anyway."
“When you’re not going, just give them to my dad and Uncle Ling and have them sell them for you. That way, we won’t make any money off you.”
"I see, thank you very much then."
"No need to thank me, thank them instead."
