Chapter 10 Fishing Without Nets

Zhuang Haiyang, who moved back to Nanshan Island alone, did not feel as lonely as others thought.The reason why people feel lonely is that most of the time it is too boring. If you really want to be busy every day, how can you be lonely when you have time?
During the day, he renovates his old house. At night, as long as the weather permits, Zhuang Haiyang will go to the reef area to meditate and practice.When it rains, Zhuang Haiyang will stay at home to practice, and he can always find something to keep him busy.

If he really felt bored, Zhuang Haiyang would start a live broadcast and bicker with those water friends in the live broadcast room.Many old users who followed the live broadcast room also found that Zhuang Haiyang seemed to be able to do decathlon through watching the live broadcast, and there was nothing he couldn't do.

Looking at the brand-new room, the old users who had already planned to spend some time here also smiled and said, "Fisherman, this house has just been painted, will there be formaldehyde? We also plan to come and stay for two days next week?"

Faced with inquiries from netizens who had booked places to go to the island, Zhuang Haiyang also smiled and said: "Don't worry! The wall paint I bought is all environmentally friendly materials. After a few days of painting, there is absolutely no need to worry about formaldehyde. I also want to live in it." Woolen cloth!"

Paint the walls and spend time installing windows and doors.The custom-made doors and windows have been shipped back to the island at one time by Zhuang Haiyang.Just take your time and get those doors and windows installed.You are very busy every day, so how do you have time to be hypocritical?
The room, doors and windows are all installed, thinking that netizens from the live broadcast room will come to play next week, Zhuang Haiyang thought for a while and said: "If there are guests coming in, we can't let them sleep on the floor! You can make the bed frame yourself, and you need to buy some mattresses. ah!"

In Zhuang Haiyang's view, fishing in the sea in a short period of time will be his main source of income.Secondly, receiving reservations from netizens in these live broadcast rooms can also increase a certain amount of income.As for not charging money, Zhuang Haiyang asked himself that he was not that generous.

If he really didn't charge money, Zhuang Haiyang believed that he would be too busy in the future.Zhuang Haiyang believes that no one can say anything about the cost and hard work.At least Zhuang Haiyang can guarantee that he will not cheat those netizens who come to play.

Earn the money you should earn, I believe no one can find a reason!

Every time he goes shopping in the town, Zhuang Haiyang will go to the nearby fishing ground early to salvage some seafood and send them to the town.While earning income, you can also learn more about the fishery resources around Nanshan Island, so that you can make money to supplement your family in the future.

As the fishing boat approached the port, a fisherman who often stays at the pier quickly approached and said, "Brother Zhuang, what good fish did you catch today?"

Facing the inquiries from the fishmongers, Zhuang Haiyang also smiled and said: "There is no good goods today, I caught some crabs. I am running a small business, and all the bosses should wait for the goods of other ship bosses. I have people ordering my goods!"

"Brother Zhuang, who is not selling? We can't afford the price offered by Yuxianlou? Let's take a look at the goods. If it's good, we will definitely give you a high price. If you want groupers and lobsters, you can buy them." Sell ​​us something, will it work?"

Although Zhuang Haiyang doesn't sell much each time, these fishermen all know that the goods Zhuang Haiyang catches are of the highest quality.Needless to say, wild groupers, as long as they are in stock, these fishermen will snap up them, even big lobsters.

But as far as Zhuang Haiyang is concerned, he knows that these fishermen are willing to pay high prices.But if you really do business with these people, you will definitely be bargained down next time.On the contrary, he believed that Chen Zhong would not cheat him if he supplied directly to Yuxianlou.

While chatting and wrangling with these fishmongers, Chen Zhong, who was still driving a pickup truck, also hurried over and said, "Old Zhou, why do you guys keep pestering my brother? His goods are exclusively for our restaurant, so you can just buy them." Stop thinking about these things."

"Boss Chen, your restaurant shouldn't be short of good products, right? We're all in the same town, at least share some soup for us!"

"Come on less! You guys took away most of the good goods in our town. My family also buys from you, and you are still robbing me of my brother's small business? It's okay, hurry up, I Brother's goods, I'll make it up!"

Even if the fishmongers returned without success every time, they were happy to argue with Chen Zhong.Just seeing Zhuang Haiyang's cargo lifted from the fishing boat, the fishermen said enviously: "These crabs are so big! They are really good!"

For fishmongers, crabs are naturally familiar.But like the crabs brought by Zhuang Haiyang, each one is not small in size, which is really rare.The bigger the crab, the more expensive it is.

In fact, as these fishmongers saw, Zhuang Haiyang, who went out to the sea in the middle of the night to put the crab pots, deliberately threw all the small crabs back into the sea when collecting the crab pots in the early morning, and only picked these fat and fat crabs.

Zhuang Haiyang will also pick some other seafood caught together with the crabs, and send them to his elder sister for extra meals.In addition, keep some in the water tank on the boat. When you want to eat, you can go to the water tank to fish at any time.

On the way to Yuyangguan, Chen Zhong was also very curious: "You guys picked all these crabs on purpose, right?"

"Well! I don't want the small ones, I threw them back into the sea. I put some of the miscellaneous fish I caught in a foam box and sent them to my sister's house later. The rest were kept in the water tank and brought back to eat. It’s time to save time to go out to sea and fish again.”

Hearing Zhuang Haiyang's words, Chen Zhong said enviously, "You boy, you really live a happy life. Three days of fishing, two days of drying nets, and after one month, the income is higher than that of a white-collar worker in the city. Bar?"

"I don't use nets for fishing! I'm just making a little money, and it's you, the young master, who really make money, right?"

"Cut! That's my dad's money, and it has nothing to do with me. If you have time, go get some wild grouper! The grouper you sent last time was ordered within two days. The town Those rich people like this!"

Compared with shrimps and crabs, fishermen who go out to sea can catch a lot of them every day. As long as the price is affordable, they can basically be bought in the fishing market.On the contrary, it is wild grouper, because it is difficult to catch with nets, as long as it is in stock, it will be looted.

This is why the price of wild grouper has soared in recent years, even if farmed grouper tastes good.But for the wealthy people living in small towns, they prefer to eat wild ones, and they are not interested in farmed groupers.

After thinking for a while, he said, "In two days, I'll go and have a look! You also know that catching groupers depends on luck, not just what you want!"

"Okay! As long as there is stock, call me anytime. In terms of price, I will definitely not cheat you."

"I'm really not afraid of this! The price you want to give is unreasonable, so I will sell it to others. These days, am I afraid that I won't be able to sell it if there are good products? Others' fishing is a mechanized operation, but I do it manually. The price is high but the price is high. Worth the money, right?"

"I know you are a cow, okay?"

Just as Zhuang Haiyang thought, after several transactions with Chen Zhong, all the fishmongers in the town knew that the fish he sold were all good things.Compared with most of the frozen and fresh seafood caught by fishing boats, most of the seafood sold by Zhuang Haiyang is live.

Frozen seafood and live seafood, naturally the latter tastes fresher.The Yuxianlou, which supplies the goods exclusively to Chen Chong's family, is more for the sake of brotherhood.If Zhuang Haiyang really wanted to sell the goods to other people, he really didn't worry that no one would want them.

Things like affection also need to be managed, and Chen Zhong's family can open such a large seafood restaurant in a small town, so they naturally have a lot of contacts.If there is any need in the future, when Zhuang Haiyang asks Chen Zhong for help, I believe the Chen family will be more willing to lend a hand.

As for losing money, for Zhuang Haiyang, the cost of catching these seafood is very little.He doesn't have to worry about money for the time being, and he is still very satisfied with his current income.Zhuang Haiyang felt too tired to be a full-time fisherman.

In Zhuang Haiyang's view, going fishing is more of a hobby, and whether he goes out or not depends on his mood.When he wasn't in town, he wasn't interested in going to sea either.Selling seafood to make money is more of a incidental thing, and he would rather live his little life on the island when he has time!
