As a Fisherman, My Fish Can Level Up
Chapter 339 - Chapter 339 Chapter 280 Selling Golden Spearfish

Chapter 339: Chapter 280: Selling Golden Spearfish Chapter 339: Chapter 280: Selling Golden Spearfish Wei Jiaguo had confirmed his desired seafood, and Chu Mingcheng helped move everything to shore, but when he saw it was a sedan, he was somewhat surprised.

“Grandpa’s keeping it low-key huh!”

“Could it be that the fish he caught this time weren’t impressive enough?”

“Should we ask Grandpa if he wants to buy that Bluefin?”

As he pondered aimlessly, his hands worked quickly, transferring everything into the trunk.

Wei Jiaguo came well prepared, with a large box on the back seat for the Bull’s Eye Green Mackerel and another box in the trunk for the sea eels.

The two pounds of Spiny Armored Shrimp and two Spider Crabs were placed in another small box.

The sea eels sold for three thousand, a little over one hundred pounds of Bull’s Eye Green Mackerel went for an even twenty thousand, while Chu Mingcheng didn’t charge for the Spiny Armored Shrimp and Spider Crabs.

Since there were not many of these two items, Chu Mingcheng intended to give them to friends and relatives to taste, and Wei Jiaguo was not shy to accept this gesture.

However, before leaving, he still asked, “Ah Cheng, what’s your plan for selling those tuna, do you have a channel?”

Chu Mingcheng shared his plan directly, “I’m planning to go to Modu and sell them there; you can auction Bluefin. It’s too much of a loss to sell to fishmongers or tuna brokers.”

Hearing this, Wei Jiaguo nodded, “Going to Modu is good, something cheaper like yellowfin can be sold directly without much loss, but for larger and fatter Bluefin Tuna, you really need to go to Modu.”

This made Chu Mingcheng appreciate his kindness, so he smiled and said, “Thanks for the reminder, Grandpa, I got it.”

Seeing this, Wei Jiaguo said no more and drove away from the dock.

On the boat, Zhang Wei, who had been relatively quiet just now, became incessantly chatty.

“Damn it, took a loss, a big loss. If I’d known about this trip, I would have gone out to sea even if it meant closing the shop–so many tuna. And how much is that ugly Black fish worth?”

Chen Yang, with a face full of disapproval, said, “Wasn’t it you who insisted on coaxing Zhang Youning over here? Now look at you, complaining. Besides, I’m the boss; it’s my call whether to close the shop or not, alright?”

“Sigh, I’m now left with nothing, both financially and romantically!” Speaking of Zhang Youning, Zhang Wei was full of regret, “I share the same surname with her. I thought maybe our families were one five hundred or a thousand years ago, and it would lead to closer ties in the future.”

“Who knew she came to experience Xia City’s ambiance and didn’t give me a chance at all! Plus…”

At this point, Zhang Wei suddenly stopped, looking somewhat upset.

Jiang Luoluo, who had been listening to the gossip, got extremely curious, “Plus what?”

Chen Yang knew the whole story and couldn’t hold back his laughter, bursting into guffaws, “You know about that woman who was saved by Ah Cheng last time, right? She came looking for Ah Wei recently.”

“I really didn’t expect that Ah Wei would one day hide from a woman who threw herself at him.”

“…” Zhang Wei replied with a dark face, “Who needs a woman who dragged me under the water the first time we met? If it weren’t for Ah Cheng, I would have died right there and become fish food.”

Jiang Luoluo covered her mouth to stifle a laugh, “That day was really too unfor– *cough*, too coincidental. I think you shouldn’t worry, maybe next time… we’ll be eating wedding feast directly?”

Zhang Wei was at a loss for words as Jiang Luoluo wouldn’t normally make such teasing comments to him. Seeing Chu Mingcheng returning, he quickly protested, “Ah Cheng, you need to control your girl.”

“What happened?” Chu Mingcheng just arrived, cluelessly, but after figuring it out, he too showed a hint of a smile.

He patted Zhang Wei’s shoulder, consoling, “No worries, I’ll be there for you if there’s danger next time, I’ll make sure to scatter your ashes properly.”

“Get lost!”

“Hahaha…”

With laughter and jests, the group left the dock to have a meal together.

During dinner, Chen Yang and Zhang Wei indicated that they want to go with to Modu to see the tuna selling process.

They planned to set sail with Chu Mingcheng next time, hoping to catch some tuna for sale as well.

So the next day, the Sea God gained two more people. Back at the store, two people were keeping watch: Zhang Youning, whom Zhang Wei was previously interested in, and an older woman.

The Sea God sailed north along the coastline, making stops at Shoes City and Fu City, selling some catch to Ah Kuangshan and Brother Haiwang.

Mostly spider crabs, spiny armored shrimp, and Bull’s Eye Green Mackerel were sold, totaling eighteen thousand seven hundred.

They chose smaller fish, so the expense was not as high as Wei Jiaguo’s purchase.

Sailing during the day, by nine o’clock at night, the Sea God docked at Wen City’s port.

It wasn’t the time for fishing boats to return, but the dock was bustling, all thanks to Chu Mingcheng’s customers.

Apart from the tuna, almost all other seafood on the ship had been sold.

Luckily, Chu Mingcheng was clever, hiding a box underneath the mackerel bait, which the frantic customers hadn’t managed to snatch away.

Individual customers preferred Bull’s Eye Green Mackerels of smaller sizes in the box, while restaurants naturally wanted all sizes.

Of the originally two thousand five hundred pounds of Bull’s Eye Green Mackerel, three were sold, one box was reserved by Chu Mingcheng, leaving two thousand two hundred thirty pounds.

Chu Mingcheng gave a slight discount and earned over three hundred sixty thousand from the sale.

The Orchid Crabs, over two hundred pounds, were currently in season during the summer, so the price was much lower than in winter, selling for only fifteen thousand in total, averaging a little over sixty per pound.

Other deep-sea fish brought in eight thousand six hundred, a bit less than anticipated due to being frozen.

As there weren’t many Spiny Armored Shrimp and Spider Crabs left, Chu Mingcheng didn’t sell them, saving them for his own people.
