My fishing game syncs with reality

Chapter 314: The Profits of Bugs

After catching so many fish, Gu Nan still went to the cabin to check the situation on the fish finder. Was there a big fish chasing him?

Unfortunately, there really isn't one tonight.

In fact, if Gu Nan drove the boat and followed, he would definitely encounter predators chasing him. There were no big fish now, but this school of fish would attract predators sooner or later.

Unfortunately, it is too late now. Even if a large amount of cargo appears, it will only be of little attraction to him. It would be fine during the day, but he doesn't want to stay up late now, and there are so many sardines on the deck that he has to deal with them.

Gu Nan took out all the baskets and plastic boxes on the boat and started loading the fish.

Soon, there were boxes of sardines in the cold storage compartment, which would not take up too much space if stacked up.

By the time Gu Nan finished his work, it was already dawn.

He smiled bitterly and decided that his morning fishing plan had to be cancelled.

In that case, Gu Nan simply took the mop brush and cleaned the deck thoroughly, scrubbing it three times. After making sure there was not much fishy smell, he went to have breakfast, take a shower and go to bed.

The cats didn't care, as they were already full from eating fish at night, and Dahua knew how to press the button on the feeder and how to feed itself.

The next day, Gu Nan continued fishing for Japanese perch for a whole day and then hurried back to the ship.

The team building will probably take a week, so he has to go back quickly to comfort his wife.

There's no reason to leave as soon as you come back and leave your wife alone in the empty room for half a month.

Wang Junhe and Guo Xiao had already told him that since he was traveling with the club members this time, he would not bring his family with him.

If there is a chance in the future, they will make a private appointment to go out and play.

When Gu Nan heard this, he immediately thought of the Ugly Country fishing competition, but they would meet in a few days, so he did not mention it on the phone and planned to ask about it after they met.

This time, the apparent gains from his return voyage were just average for him.

The most valuable is the Japanese seabass weighing more than 230 kilograms, followed by some deep-sea fish.

Gu Nan was unable to take this batch of Japanese sea bass back to the store. As they were divided up among several hotels at the dock, they were sold for about 200,000 yuan.

The other deep-sea fish were almost sold out at once. Fortunately, all the seafood in Gu Nan’s space had been arranged for shipment, and they were delivered to the store one after another in the past two days.

After returning to Xindian, the place has almost returned to its state as it was two years ago, and the water tanks and pools are no longer empty.

"Chenchen, Brother Wang told me a few days ago that he would organize a team building for the club members. I'll be with you if I'm free these few days."

Yi Chen's mouth twitched when he heard that. The team building will be going on in a few days, so won't he be tormented these days?

"It's okay. Team building or going out to sea are all serious matters. You don't have to worry about me."

After resting for a few days, she felt that her body had recovered a lot and she didn't want to go back to the sore and weak state of the previous few days.

No matter how good the land is, it cannot withstand being plowed repeatedly by a wild ox!

Gu Nan didn't know what his wife was thinking. He just felt that she was very considerate. Just like him, he was also very considerate.

"Hey, hey, hey, why are you pulling the door in broad daylight?"

"No, don't touch my clothes."

"Oh, you bad guy!"

From then on, Gu Nan's life became more comfortable for the two of them.

First, I communicated with Zhou Gang and asked him to set up a fishery company that can export and get all the certificates and documents completed. If the procedures were not complete, there would be no chance for him to import.

However, Zhou Gang had good connections in Sakhalin Island and was directly affiliated with a fishery company.

After a while, he will be able to legally export various king crabs, snow crabs, and Sakhalin Island, which has a relatively large output, to the country, which is also importing standard seafood.

Gu Nan also ran business for a day and got nearly a ton of business.

These are all hotels and restaurants with which we have been cooperating, and the usage is relatively large.

The shop does not need to stock up, you can just come to his store and buy some every day. If the goods are out of stock, you can even call and order them directly.

One ton may sound like a lot, but it is actually only about 400 pieces, weighing an average of 5 kilograms each.

However, by the time the goods arrive, he will probably have returned from team building, and the temporary cooperating restaurants will remain the same, and the goods will be purchased from other channels.

Since Gu Nan was able to bring in this batch of orders, the price would naturally be discounted.

The crabs in the south are basically sourced from the king crab bases in the northern cities, which also purchase directly from the Russians. They send the king crabs as samples temporarily, and then sell them wholesale in batches to all parts of the country.

If it’s fresh, send it to nearby places; if it’s far away, send it to cooked or frozen places.

The middlemen on their side make a profit from the price difference, and the same is true for Gu Nan's side. The prices are almost the same, the only difference is that these hotels are closer to purchase goods, so it is more convenient.

The losses were naturally borne by Gu Nan himself, and the same was true for the temporary base in the north. He had no advantage at all in this regard.

The business volume in one city is enough for him to handle for the time being. Whether he can expand his business to surrounding cities in the future depends on Gu Nan himself.

There were only two days left before the team building, and Ye Jing hurried and finally came back from abroad.

"Hahahaha, those who know you will understand that you went to the Maldives, and those who don't know you will think that you came back from Africa. Brother, did you go to transcend the tribulation?"

At the airport, the moment An Jun saw Ye Jing, he burst into laughter.

Gu Nan's mouth twitched as well. It had only been a short time and he had already become more than two shades darker.

He originally planned to travel there, but suddenly he hesitated, thinking that his fair and tender young wife had turned into a black girl, he...it seemed that it was not impossible to change the taste?

Look at Xu Zhina. Her appearance has decreased after becoming two shades darker, but she has gained a kind of wild beauty.

This kind of suntan is not a big problem and it will recover after going home and resting for half a year.

"Go to hell, Nana and I were sunbathing on purpose. We were just trying to experience sunbathing. We'll be white again after we come back and rest!" Ye Jing said, kicking An Jun on the butt in annoyance.

"You know what, it really has a unique flavor." Gu Nan touched his chin and looked at the two of them carefully, making Xu Zhina roll her eyes.

She knew she would have to face these things when she returned, and she expected there would be another fuss when she saw her family and friends later.

"Let's go. You guys are back just in time. I got a live Atlantic blue marlin. We can have a fish feast tonight."

The airport was crowded with people coming and going and it wasn't a place to talk, so Gu Nan helped take a suitcase and walked towards the parking lot.

"Fuck, Atlantic blue marlin? I heard this stuff is super expensive!" An Jun was shocked when he heard that.

He didn't know about Gu Nan's plan for a dinner party, let alone that he had caught a rare and precious blue marlin.

"It's not that expensive, mainly because there are so few of them." Gu Nan gave them some scientific information as they walked, letting them know that what is expensive is the prize money, not the fish.

Upon learning that one could get a reward of several million US dollars for catching a fish, An Jun curled his lips and said, "Look, foreign countries are so generous. Those domestic competitions are so stingy and have no vision at all." Gu Nan shook his head and didn't respond. The market situation in China is different. Two or three million US dollars is equivalent to more than 10 to 20 million oceans. Why take so much for something that can be done with a few hundred thousand?

Send Ye Jing and the others home first, and then Gu Nan will go back to prepare the fish.

The fish that were caught alive at the beginning still couldn't be delivered alive.

Swordfish and marlin will be in danger of death within a minute after being taken out of the water. If they are not released, they will surely die. It is obviously unrealistic for Gu Nan to send them back alive.

Fortunately, the fish had been frozen for less than a day and was very fresh. However, the blue back had become much darker in color. If it had waited a few more hours, it would have turned dark blue and would have looked similar to the black-skinned marlin.

"Chenchen, let's go to the boat first!"

"Okay, should we take something else besides fish?"

"No, there is still some meat and rice on the boat that I didn't finish eating last time I went out to sea."

"Okay, let's go then!"

Gu Nan used a crane to lift the foam box containing the marlin onto the pickup truck, then closed the door and left with his wife.

It's already past three in the afternoon, so it doesn't matter whether the store is open or not.

"Wait, wait, don't close it yet. I want to buy something." Gu Nan had just closed the door and was about to lock it when he saw Kang Ye running over in a hurry.

"Hey, brother, when did you come back?" Gu Nan's eyes lit up when he saw him. Big business was coming.

"I just came back and now I'm in a hurry to pick up the goods. I have to treat you to dinner in the evening." Kang Ye breathed a sigh of relief.

He thought Gu Nan's store would be open all day, so he didn't send him a message in advance to tell him that he was coming, otherwise it would be troublesome again. Fortunately, he arrived just in time for closing time.

"Well, why don't you just tell me and I'll send it to you." Gu Nan said as he opened the door again.

"This is just on my way, otherwise I would have asked you to deliver it." Kang Ye walked into the store with a smile on his face. When he saw more than twenty particularly large giant isopods in the basket, the smile on his face became even brighter.

"Are all the twenty I ordered here?"

"Yes, this thing is so popular that it was sold out as soon as I got it in stock. I reserved these for you. There are 20 of them, weighing about three pounds on average."

Three pounds, the price of one is 4,500 yuan, so twenty of them would be 90,000 yuan.

Gu Nan thought he had caught enough giant isopods, but the result surprised him.

Just like the Japanese sea bass, as soon as these goods arrived, he sent messages to several cooperating hotels and they were sold out the next day.

The same was true when he shipped two more shipments later. This thing is really rare in large quantities. After the hotel promoted it a little, many wealthy people made direct reservations.

Wang Junhe, Guo Xiao, the shipyard owner and some members of the club also bought a lot.

These twenty were the last in stock, and his aquarium was empty.

Gu Nan made more than 500,000 yuan from these giant isopods alone, not counting the last twenty.

"Okay, okay, they all look great. Brother, help me pack them and I'll take them away right away." Kang Ye used a small net to move these giant isopods. When he found that they were all very energetic, he looked very satisfied.

"Okay." Gu Nan nodded, took the foam box from Yi Chen and started packing.

"By the way, is the Japanese sea bass you mentioned last time still there?"

"Here, it's in the fish tank. Chenchen, please help pack it. This is a free gift."

The insects were sold for 90,000 yuan, so Gu Nan was not stingy and bought an ornamental fish.

Kang Ye is a big customer. He has spent at least 500,000 yuan in his store, although not millions. He is happy to receive some small gifts from him.

"Then I won't be polite. Thank you!" Kang Ye admired the Japanese seabass with a smile. He thought that this fish was very special and indeed worth viewing.

After a while, after watching Kang Ye leave, no one came this time. Gu Nan successfully closed the door and took Yi Chen to the Nanchen.

He carried the fish to the deck and then took a knife to start processing the fish.

This blue marlin will definitely be eaten as sashimi, and then grilled and fried. These are Yi Chen's jobs. Now she will go to the kitchen to prepare the ingredients and dipping sauce.

"Meow~" Seeing Da Yu, Da Hua immediately ran to him and snuggled up to his trouser leg and acted coquettishly.

"You greedy little cat!" Gu Nan laughed, then cut a piece of fish and threw it to it.

Seeing there was food, Xiaohua and Xiaoju also hurried over. He also cut a small piece and divided it into two portions for the little one to try.

After a while, when Gu Nan had cut the fish into pieces and placed them on the table, An Jun finally came with Jin Enfei.

When Gu Nan saw what he had in his hand, his eyes lit up: "Sure, how did you get such a big barnacle?"

"I'm lucky. When I got here, I saw a fisherman setting up a stall on the roadside outside the pier. Wow, there was a basket of barnacles, all as big as fists. If I had come later, the goods would have been gone." An Jun said as he handed the goods to him with a smile.

This kind of fist-sized volcanic barnacle is still very rare. Those found in places like the docks are generally only half the size of a thumb.

It is troublesome to eat less meat, so not many people like to eat it.

But this big one is still very good, with lots of meat and a very delicious taste.

Anyway, Gu Nan felt that it was much more delicious than those so-called gooseneck barnacles. The gooseneck barnacles, like the yellow croaker, were purely inflated in price.

However, these large barnacles are not easy to deal with. They are usually found on reefs in the intertidal zone, so it is quite dangerous to deal with them.

This kind of bulk goods are the kind that are snapped up. Just like An Jun said, he was indeed lucky and happened to come across someone selling it.

That person was probably not satisfied with the price offered by the seafood vendor, so he came out to sell the fish himself, otherwise they would be hard to find in the market.

"Enfei, take these barnacles to the kitchen. Chenchen is there. She knows what to do."

Jin Enfei nodded and carried the big bag of barnacles to the kitchen.

An Jun looked at the fish on the table curiously, feeling a little disappointed. "Why are you so quick? I want to see the difference between the Atlantic blue marlin and our local ones!"

"On the surface, there's no difference. I have a photo here." Gu Nan handed him the photo he took at the new store. "This one has been frozen. The color is a little darker. It was very beautiful when it was first caught. The back was almost sea blue."

"It's really quite brilliant. Why don't we have a marlin and sailfish competition in our country with a lot of prize money?"

"What are you thinking? The fish in China are all in the open sea, and the cost of going out to sea is so high! Other foreigners fish in the near sea, and it only takes one or two hours to reach the fishing spot by boat. How can you compare?"

Hearing this, An Jun also sighed: "The fishing was too fierce in the last era, otherwise our domestic coastal waters would not be in the current situation."

"We can't help it. It's a necessity of the times. Don't blame it all on overfishing. In fact, the country's rapid development is due to the overdrawing of many resources. Overfishing also contributed to the country's development. How much did the fishermen at that time have?"

"We who have taken advantage of the times, how can we be qualified to criticize the elders of that era?" (End of this chapter)
