Chapter 489: The fisherman who pleases
As usual, the fleet that had gone out to sea for less than five days appeared on time at the pier of Nanshan Island. Many tourists who were visiting Nanshan Island also seemed curious when they saw the return of the fishing fleet.
Most of these tourists who came here have watched the fleet's fishing videos on the Internet. It is rare to have the opportunity to encounter the fishing fleet returning. Many tourists also suggested whether they can board the ship and see the fleet's fishing catch.
Regarding such an application, after Princess Li greeted Zhuang Haiyang, Zhuang Haiyang also said readily: "Okay! If you want to board the boat, it will be fine. But, you have to listen to the greeting when you get on the boat!"
"Fisherman, don't worry, we just want to see if you go to sea, are there fish and crabs in the cabin again?"
"That's sure! How could I smash my own sign? I know that many people on the Internet are suspicious of the videos I posted. Now that the fleet has just returned from sea, it shouldn't be faked, right? You can board the ship and watch it yourself, including the cold storage."
As Zhuang Haiyang happily satisfied everyone's curiosity, tourists who had been waiting for a long time, under the guidance of several crew members, they boarded two salvage boats one after another. The sealed water tanks were also opened one after another.
When the tourists saw various crabs filled with water cabins, they said in shock: "My goodness, how many crabs are there in this cabin! If someone with intensive phobia, they will probably faint after a glance."
"It's okay! We go to sea, mainly fishing catches. In addition to various sea fish, crabs are also the key seafood to salvage. These days, the crab market is good. The crabs we fish and are delivered to restaurants are all the best crabs!"
"Indeed! Can we buy this crab?"
"Yes! If you like it, we will get a batch and send it to the cage for temporary maintenance later. If you want to eat fresh food, you can eat it in the restaurant at night. The same goes for other seafood. This water cabin is a rare and good seafood!"
The crew members in charge of guidance also knew that many tourists who came to the island were actually for seafood. Even if the seafood raised in cages is still fresh, many tourists are worried whether the seafood stored in cages will be artificially cultivated.
Now that I see the seafood in the water tank, there is no need to doubt anything. When I heard the crew introduce these, tourists soon noticed that the water tank was still fresh. It would be better if the rare seafood that is rare in the seafood restaurant is expensive.
The most important thing is that when I heard the price of these seafood eaten in the island restaurants, many tourists smiled and said, "It seems that I really made a profit when I come here to eat seafood. This kind of red star spot is at least a few hundred yuan more expensive when I eat it in other restaurants!"
Zhuang Haiyang heard this and said with a smile: "In fact, the seafood I sell to you is the same price as the fisherman I sell to. The extra dollar is the processing fee. After all, you have to pay a salary for a chef!"
"Okay! The price is really good. The most important thing is that many seafood are in inland cities, and it is difficult for us to hear fresh seafood. Eating seafood is still a good word. Frozen seafood is indeed not as good as those newly caught."
"That's natural! It's rare that you have such luck today. If you like seafood later, just order it. If you are not at ease, you can take it to the restaurant to pay. If you think it's troublesome, you can choose it and I'll send it there."
"Okay, then I'll bother you."
Several employees who acted as tour guides on the island were called, and Zhuang Haiyang also asked them to ask tourists for their opinions and asked tourists to directly choose their favorite seafood on the boat. After they were picked, they would directly load them with baskets and take them off the boat and weigh them and settle the accounts.
Seeing this scene, Li Zixian also smiled and said, "It seems that these tourists still love the seafood you catch more!"
"They just want to be fresh! In fact, the seafood we raise in cages is not much different from this one."
Trying to meet the needs of tourists is also a rule that Zhuang Haiyang has always emphasized. All tourists will choose the seafood they want to eat tonight. Zhuang Haiyang still allows people to pick some seafood to stock it in the cages in the back mountain.
Only when tourists witnessed this scene with their own eyes can they believe that the seafood raised in cages is wild rather than artificially cultivated. These cages are built more to allow tourists to land on the island and hear fresh seafood.
When some tourists uploaded the videos they shot online, many netizens who followed Nanshan Island were also very moved. Some people suspected that Zhuang Haiyang was faked, and when they saw these videos, they didn't dare to say anything more.
In fact, Zhuang Haiyang ignored these people who were looking for trouble from beginning to end. Since he became an anchor on the first day, Zhuang Haiyang knew that there was never a shortage of sluts on the Internet. Even if they were invited to come and fish in person, they would probably express their disbelief.
Regarding the live broadcast room video management, there is a girlfriend and a platform staff responsible, and Zhuang Haiyang is only responsible for recording videos. As for this kind of argument, he is really not interested in dealing with it.
Those who believe believe, and those who don’t believe will still not believe unless they are beaten to death. If that is the case, why bother yourself?
After getting off the boat, the crew went to the restaurant to have a working meal. Many tourists also said enviously when they saw the crew's working meal: "Hold a straw, how can others bear your working meal!"
Faced with the envy of tourists, many crew members said: "Seafood is not valuable on the island. Compared to seafood, we are more willing to eat some vegetables. No matter how delicious the food is, it will be the case if you eat too much, isn't it?"
When tourists heard the crew’s answers, they thought it was true. For many fishermen in coastal areas, seafood is really home-cooked. Although many fishermen are unwilling to eat expensive seafood, occasionally some people are willing to eat it themselves.
Only these tourists who love seafood and are difficult to eat fresh seafood in the inland will feel envious when they see that most of the crew’s working meals are seafood. Many residents who live on the island do prefer vegetables.
In fact, in the restaurants on Nanshan Island, the price of vegetables served is indeed more expensive than some seafood. Tourists who have visited before think the price of vegetables are too high. But after eating, they all say they are delicious.
The restaurant staff will also tell tourists very clearly that these vegetables are available in limited quantities every day. If these vegetables are delivered to the island, the price of each serving of vegetables will be much more expensive than that on the island.
Unlike the crew, Zhuang Haiyang, who came back early today, still had dinner with his girlfriend at home. After dinner, Zhuang Haiyang took his girlfriend and some crew members to set sail again to the town to sell fishing catches.
Although some tourists were curious and wanted to follow, Zhuang Haiyang still declined this request. It is still not suitable to disclose it to outsiders if the tourists are asked to leak the price, it will also affect the fishermen's sales.
Shortly after the fleet set off, Zhuang Haiyang called the fishermen one after another. The fishermen who received the call were all very happy without exception and smiled and said, "Okay! I will definitely arrive later!"
From the fishing moratorium to the present, these fishermen and other fishing fishing catches in the ocean have really been waiting until the flowers have faded. Now they finally have the opportunity to open. How could these fishermen not be active? Can they be unhappy if they have money to make money?
When the fleet arrived at the fishing port wharf in the town, the fishermen who had been waiting for a long time said happily: "Finally come! This guy, I'm really worried that he would not come back if he went overseas! I heard that he made a lot of money overseas!"
"You have heard of it too? A customer of mine said that he specializes in catching king crabs overseas! Recently, the fresh king crabs sold in high-end restaurants on the island are all supplied by him. This guy is really good at fishing!"
"Yes! In addition to King Crab, I heard that he also brought a lot of tuna back. The restaurant he and Lao Chen opened also sold yellowfin tuna some time ago. I heard that he also transported it back from overseas. This money has made a lot of money!"
Amid the discussions of the crowd, the two salvage boats docked smoothly one by one and the other. Seeing Zhuang Haiyang and Li Zixian walking down from the boat from the beginning, these fishermen also stepped forward to say hello. The fishermen were also very polite to the two.
After a brief chat, Zhuang Haiyang led everyone onto the boat to watch the cargo. Seeing the catches in the water tank, many fishermen smiled satisfied. In their opinion, the seafood provided by Zhuang Haiyang is still as good as ever.
After the price was negotiated, Zhuang Haiyang began to direct the crew members to start cleaning up the goods. As baskets of fishing catches were sent to the dock for weighing, the fishermen also directed the employees to load these fresh catches into oxygen supply vehicles.
The concubine Li who accompanied her was still responsible for checking the bill as usual. Looking at the money transferred to the account, Princess Li was still very happy. She also knew in her heart that Zhuang Haiyang would invest a lot of money in a while!
When the last batch of fishing catches were cleared, Zhuang Haiyang also chatted with the fishermen for a while. Zhuang Haiyang didn't hide anything about fishing overseas. Hearing that there were so many good fish overseas, these fishermen were also envious.
Some fishermen even said, "Brother Zhuang, since there are so many fishery resources overseas, why don't you go on this line specifically? If you can catch more tuna and supply a ship of cargo every month, you can make a lot of money!"
Regarding the fisherman's suggestions, Zhuang Haiyang smiled and said, "It's too much to go back and forth! If I have time in the future, I might set up a fleet to travel far away. Now, I still like to stay at home and I know everything here."
"That's right! With your fishing level, even if you struggle in your hometown, you can make a lot of money in a year!"
After contacting the fishermen for some time, when they saw the salvage boats cleaned up, Zhuang Haiyang also smiled and said, "Okay, everyone, let's talk about this tonight. We will meet again in a few days."
"Okay! Then we'll send it to you not far!"
As the fleet slowly sailed away from the dock, the fishermen also returned home. The fishermen who just bought had to start arranging ships or manpower to deliver the fishing catches they had just bought to customers as quickly as possible.
The customers also waited for these top-quality fishing catches for a long time. If they did not supply them, the customers would have to have an objection. This is why these fishermen were so polite to Zhuang Haiyang.
