After hanging up the phone, Xiang Yang looked at Fatty Zuo with a half-smile, "Did you hear everything?"
"Brother Yang, I..." Fatty Zuo was immediately anxious. What was going on? He had heard Xiang Yang's business secrets right away. How could Xiang Yang not make things difficult for him? At the same time, Fatty Zuo was also jealous of the seafood buyers in the town. Damn, they only charged 300 yuan for something that was worth 2,000 yuan per pound outside? How could they be so greedy
"Okay, I heard it." Xiang Yang actually turned on the speakerphone on purpose. After all, the news that Xiang Yang sold the sea cucumbers he caught for five thousand yuan per catty had spread throughout the village. Some villagers didn't care how big your sea cucumbers were, they only remembered the five thousand yuan. It was better to make some things clear to avoid people gossiping about them later.
Fatty Zuo smiled awkwardly, "Brother Yang, what about my sea cucumbers?"
"Go back and dry them and weigh them later. I'll charge you 1,800 per pound. Is it okay for me to earn 10% as a reward for your hard work?" Xiang Yang asked.
Fatty Zuo shuddered all over, he certainly had no objection to this price. If these sea cucumbers were sold in the town, they would only be sold for more than 300 yuan per catty. Now the price has increased so many times. How could Fatty Zuo have any objection
Even Fatty Zuo thought that the price was too high. The channel was provided by Xiang Yang, and Xiang Yang even had to pay for the transportation after the sale, but he did not keep the bulk of the profit.
"Brother Yang, what about oysters, crabs, lobsters and the like? Do you buy them too?" Fatty Zuo's voice became more friendly, and he looked at Xiang Yang eagerly. Sea cucumbers were rare and could only make a fortune, but oysters, crabs, lobsters and the like could often be caught as long as you put in the effort. Fatty Zuo had just heard clearly that the big boss outside bought everything.
"Forget about oysters, because the profit margin is low and they are easy to die. I will buy crabs and lobsters, but they must be alive." Xiang Yang has Yubei as his backing and is not interested in putting too much effort into the acquisition. His main development direction in the future is still at sea. The acquisition is for his parents to see, as he has a legitimate job to shut them up. Secondly, the villagers have helped Xiang Yang before, so Xiang Yang is doing a good thing for the villagers to the best of his ability.
Fatty Zuo was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately thanked Xiang Yang profusely. Then he picked up the bag of sea cucumbers and ran out of Xiang Yang's house.
Xiang Yang didn't care. This guy was always in a hurry. He must be in a hurry to go out to sea if he left in such a hurry.
The news that Xiang Yang was collecting sea cucumbers, crabs, lobsters and other seafood spread like a gust of wind.
At first, the villagers were just watching and no one acted rashly.
But after someone spread the news of Xiang Yang's purchase price, the villagers could no longer sit still. The swimming crabs that were only sold at 25 yuan per catty in the town were charged at 45 yuan per catty. The large lobsters that were sold at 120 yuan per catty in the town were charged at 300 yuan per catty. The sea cucumbers that were sold at 300 yuan per catty in the town were even priced at a sky-high price of 1,800 yuan per catty.
The villagers were so surprised by the news that they all ran to Xiang Yang's house with gifts to find out the truth of the news.
Xiang Yang naturally confirmed them one by one, and also put forward certain requirements. He would not accept lobsters weighing less than one kilogram, would only accept swimming crabs weighing more than three taels, and would never accept sea cucumbers smaller than a ring finger.
These requirements must be made, otherwise, the crazy fishermen might turn the entire Qinglong Bend upside down, and Xiang Yang had to consider the problem of ecological damage.
Xiang Yang's worries were absolutely right.
The fishermen who confirmed the authenticity of the news went crazy and started fishing in their boats at night. Some people even pulled cables on the beach to light up rows of large searchlights to prevent accidents while fishing at night.
Such a grand ceremony frightened Xiang's father and mother, especially his mother, who almost trembled with heartache when she saw Xiang Yang spending real money.
Xiang's father also repeatedly asked Xiang Yang whether the boss outside was trustworthy, so as to avoid letting the goods rot in his hands.
Xiang Yang, however, had no worries in this regard. He had already checked the prices of wild lobsters and wild swimming crabs. Even if the store introduced by Boss Li was unreliable, Xiang Yang was not worried that the goods would rot in his hands. The retail price outside was much higher than his purchase price, and Xiang Yang did not believe that he could not find a shipping channel.
At the same time, Xiang Yang himself was not idle either. He took a fishing net bag and ran to the bottom of the sea.
Under the sea, Xiang Yang felt like he was back home, without any discomfort at all.
Moreover, Xiang Yang's vision also changed after reaching the bottom of the sea. The pitch-black seabed at night did not affect Xiang Yang's vision at all.
Xiang Yang first ran to the coral reef where he found the sea cucumbers last time and searched carefully, then caught all the large sea cucumbers as thick as arms that he had missed last time.
Well, it seems that we missed a lot last time, and this time we caught more than last time, about ten pounds. Xiang Yang’s empty fishing net bag was suddenly bulging.
After confirming that there were no large sea cucumbers as thick as arms on this coral reef, Xiang Yang finally had some free time to explore the seabed.
Schools of beautiful tropical fish swim among the coral reefs, which is simply a beautiful sight. Xiang Yang feels that he will never get tired of looking at this beautiful natural underwater environment for the rest of his life.
Xiang Yang felt that his eyesight at the bottom of the sea was better than on the shore. He could clearly see a group of palm-sized swimming crabs hunting on the seabed from dozens of meters away.
The swimming crab is actually not the name of a single kind of marine crab. It includes many common species of coastal crabs. It has 6 subfamilies, 35 genera and more than 300 species of marine crabs. Among them, the one that Xiang Yang saw has a round middle, pointed sides, and serrations on its shell, which looks very tough. It is the most common of the more than 300 species of swimming crabs.
This kind of swimming crab is extremely fierce and its food is seashells, small fish and shrimps.
Seeing this group of swimming crabs, Xiang Yang swam over immediately.
When the group of little guys saw the big guy Xiang Yang swimming towards them, they panicked and fled in all directions. Although they can only walk sideways with their eight legs, they can actually crawl very fast on the seabed. It is impossible for ordinary people to catch them on the seabed unless they are professional fishermen.
Xiang Yang discovered an interesting scene among the fleeing group of swimming crabs.
A swimming crab that was not even as big as a palm saw Xiang Yang swimming towards it. It was unwilling to give up the food it had caught while running away. It was dragging a dead sea fish that was bigger than its body with its two large claws and was retreating clumsily.
Xiang Yang was immediately delighted and swam over and picked up the swimming crab.
The little guy became anxious when he was caught. He let go of the sea fish and started struggling hard in Xiang Yang's palm, shaking his big claws to try to pinch Xiang Yang.
It's true that although this swimming crab doesn't look big, it's actually very strong, especially its two big claws. Once it's clamped, it won't let go even if you pry the claws off.
It is actually dangerous to catch swimming crabs. If you are hit by those two big claws, a piece of meat will definitely fall off.
