Chapter 77 The sought-after shrimp

Looking at the few lobsters transferred to the oxygen tank of the fishing boat, the most eye-catching one is undoubtedly the so-called "God Shrimp" caught last.When getting up from the sea, Xu Haibao still did not forget to sprinkle a few drops of nameless pearl water on this reef area.

For Xu Haibao, every time he obtains ingredients from the sea, he will also moderately feed back some benefits to the sea.With the temptation of these nameless pearls of water, it is believed that this reef area will attract more lobsters to live here.

Even if the villagers know about it, they may come here to eat shrimp pots.But even so, Xu Haibao felt that restoring Xiadao's former reputation would also help to enhance Xiadao's reputation and attract more and more people to stop here.

What's more, the chances of success in catching lobsters with shrimp pots are low.On the other hand, Xu Haibao, who is good at diving and arresting, will gain something whenever he wants to come here.For him, this reef area where lobsters live is a natural shrimp farm.

When Xu Haibao and his party returned to the fishing village wharf and saw Xu Haibao and Chen Xingcheng carrying the prawns ashore, many villagers were surprised and said, "Wow, Baowa, you are so lucky! You can even catch the shrimps. Was it caught on Shrimp Island?"

"Yes! I wanted to try my luck today, but I didn't expect to catch this shrimp by accident."

The knowledgeable villagers said enviously: "Bao Wa, you should be able to sell this god shrimp? This shrimp is not easy to raise, and it is more valuable to sell it alive. I heard from the fisherman in the town that someone caught it two years ago. Such a big shrimp sold for 60-[-]!"

"It shouldn't be so expensive, right? We don't have many shrimps here, but there should be some in the South China Sea!"

Regarding the valuation given by the villagers, Xu Haibao didn't think the shrimp could be sold at such a high price.If someone really offered a high price to buy it, Xu Haibao would still sell it.After all, this shrimp has already shown its face, so it is not easy to put it in the space to raise it.

Unless there is a chance in the future, he will set up an aquarium on Fulin Island or that uninhabited island. In that case, it will be more convenient to raise this kind of big lobster.If there is no suitable breeding area, this kind of lobster can easily die.

Of course, with Xu Haibao of Wuming Zhushui, he is not afraid to raise this beautiful lobster to death in a short time.If he finds a buyer who is willing to pay a high price, Xu Haibao can guarantee that the live lobster will be delivered to the buyer.

Hearing that some villagers began to say that they were going to put shrimp pots on the shrimp island, Xu Haibao didn't say much.After all, the Shrimp Island is not his, and it is the villagers' freedom to go there to lay shrimp cages.Whether you can catch it or not is another matter!

At least in Xu Haibao's view, there are not many lobsters gathered on the Shrimp Island.Unless someone can dive like him and search the reef area below.Otherwise, it might not be that simple to catch the lobsters that live there.

Back home, the third uncle who came to see the prawns was also very excited and said: "This kid is so lucky, I have nothing to say. You don't want to steam this prawn, do you? Or, let's go to town, Did you sell it?"

"Third uncle, there are no buyers for good things! What's more, those fishmongers in the town can't afford high prices. I have asked Xingcheng to take a photo of this shrimp and send it to his father, asking him to help with publicity. See if anyone wants to buy it.

I believe there will be news when we send them back to the city the day after tomorrow.It shouldn't matter if you keep it in the fish box for two days.If no one buys it, then I will keep it.If it doesn't work, just steam it, and let's try the taste of the shrimp! "

Hearing this, Xu Licheng also couldn't laugh or cry and said: "We can't afford this shrimp! If someone knows the goods, this shrimp can sell at least 20 or [-] yuan. If you really steam it and eat it, you will wait to eat it." Your father clean up!"

Rare is precious!

For Xu Licheng, who is a fisherman, the splendid lobster is rare.But if you really want to steam it, it probably won't taste much better than ordinary lobster.On the other hand, selling for money is the wisest choice.

Seeing Xu Haibao throwing the lobster into the fish box in the backyard, Xu Licheng said with concern: "Baby, you must remember to watch it carefully, and don't raise it to death. Keep the oxygen machine on, and keep the fish box inside. Oxygen, this shrimp is worthless if it’s dead!”

"Don't worry third uncle, I know it! This shrimp will definitely not die!"

This big plastic fish box bought from the town, when Xu Licheng bought it earlier, Xu Haibao complained about wasting money.But now I feel that this nephew is quite prescient, and it is convenient to raise fish and shrimps with this fish box.

With an oxygen machine, the fish and shrimp kept in it can survive for a period of time.But Xu Licheng was still a little curious. The grouper that Xu Haibao raised in the fish box earlier was still alive and well.

Although this situation was somewhat unreasonable, Xu Licheng didn't say much.After all, when Xu Haibao is not at home, he often injects oxygen into the fish tank.Or sufficient oxygen has kept the grouper alive until now.

But in fact, although the sea water in the fish box is changed from time to time.But the real reason why the fish has survived until now is that Xu Haibao added nameless beads from time to time.With the nourishment of spiritual water, the fish and shrimp kept in it naturally don't have to worry about not being able to survive.

Wash the two freshly caught lobsters and put them on the steamer.Looking at the two freshly cooked lobsters, everyone had a great time eating the meal at noon.It's just that in Liu Chenglin's view, Xu Haibao really spent a lot to entertain them.

After all, the wild big grouper eaten last night and the wild lobster steamed at noon will not be cheap if they are sold in the market.If it were other villagers, they would probably be reluctant to entertain guests with such expensive seafood.

After lunch, Xu Haibao and his party continued to visit the island.But this time, the uninhabited island that everyone went to was Washan Island, which had been abandoned.As for the valuable shrimp, Xu Haibao threw it in the fish box with confidence.

However, compared to Xu Haibao's reassurance, the third aunt chose to stay at home and guard the shrimp for Xu Haibao.Thinking that the shrimp could sell for more than 20 to [-] yuan, the third aunt was also afraid that something might go wrong with the shrimp.

When Xu Haibao and his party arrived at Washan Island and started wandering around the island.After receiving the pictures and videos from his son, Chen Donghua devoted himself to publicizing Xu Haibao and spreading the news.

As a result, some interested buyers also called Chen Donghua one after another, inquiring about the situation of the lobster, and also offered the corresponding purchase price.Regarding the inquiries from these buyers, Chen Donghua did not make the decision for Xu Haibao.

Regarding the price given by the buyer, Chen Donghua will also say in a timely manner: "Okay, I will tell you about this matter. Whether it is sold or not depends on my friend's opinion. If someone bids higher than you, I will also notify you of!"

Under such circumstances, many buyers who are interested in Splendid Lobster also began to bid one after another.After receiving a call from Chen Donghua, Xu Haibao also said in surprise: "Someone is bidding 26 now?"

"Yes! After seeing the photos and videos you took, many people are very interested. Now the highest bidder is a boss who specializes in ornamental fish business in the provincial capital. However, he said that the shrimp must be alive!"

"Don't worry, this shrimp is guaranteed to be alive! Let's wait, anyway, I'm not in a hurry. If no one bids higher than him, then it won't be too late to sell this shrimp to him. It's just this matter, so I will trouble Uncle Hua a lot." Turn around!"

"What's the trouble with this matter! It's nothing more than making a few calls and answering a few calls. Seriously, with the help of your shrimp, I got to know the boss of this business again!"

After finishing the call with Chen Donghua, Xu Qingya, who was listening to the previous conversation, was also surprised and said, "Brother, can the shrimp be sold for 26 yuan? Who the hell is willing to pay such a high price?"

"A boss who is in the ornamental fish business in the provincial capital! If he is willing to offer this price, it means that the shrimp is worth the price. At present, the ornamental fish market is hot, and this kind of splendid lobster is also very popular. Sell ​​at a higher price.

As far as I know, at an ornamental fish exhibition in Singapore a few years ago, a red dragon fish was sold for a high price of 60 US dollars.For those rich people who love to play with fish and shrimp, they are not short of money, but it is difficult to buy their favorite fish and shrimp! "

Perhaps for many ordinary people, spending hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars to buy a fish or shrimp seems somewhat prodigal.But there is an old saying that 'money can't buy love'. For rich people, as long as they like them, they are willing to pay a high price for them.

After returning from Washan Island, while having dinner, Chen Donghua called again, and the price of that splendid lobster was raised to 32.It can be seen that there are quite a few buyers who are not short of money.

What Xu Haibao never expected was that Chen Donghua called again at noon the next day. The owner of the ornamental fish business in the provincial capital drove to Baohai himself, intending to see the splendid lobster with his own eyes.

If the lobster is still alive and in good condition, the other party is willing to bid 50 yuan for the lobster caught by Xu Haibao.In view of this situation, Xu Haibao originally decided to trade the next day, but was collectively opposed by everyone.

Knowing that Xu Haibao was entertaining them, he chose to trade the next day.But for everyone, this kind of opportunity is rare.They will also feel embarrassed if they drive the buyer away.

After all, how could such a great event be delayed, involving a transaction of 50 shrimp?In the end, everyone decided to end the trip early and accompany Xu Haibao to escort this big lobster back to the city for trading!
