Chapter 133 Opening the Pearl
This is the end of the matter of the pike turtle.
Before leaving, Xiang Yang asked Professor Chen Yu whether the diving suit he was currently using could insulate current. After receiving a positive answer from Professor Chen Yu, Xiang Yang submitted an order without hesitation.
Soon, Li Chao's people drove over, and Xiang Yang bid farewell to Professor Chen.
When Li Chao sent someone to send Xiang Yang back to the Haizhan Hall, Chen Qingsheng and the others were already waiting there, and when they saw Xiang Yang, they immediately surrounded him.
Naturally, Xiang Yang knew their doubts, so he hurriedly said: I'll talk about my business after I get back. How about you? Is there anything else?
Both Chen Qingsheng and Fang Youqun shook their heads to indicate that they were fine.
Xiang Yang said: Since there is nothing else to do, let's find a restaurant to eat something, and then go back.
Wait. Xiang Hui said, Second Brother, Wu Shiwen has also come to Longcheng City.
Wu Shiwen? Xiang Yang asked doubtfully, He also came to the Sea Pavilion?
That's not true, but it's not far away. It's in a seafood market not far behind the Haizhan Hall. He set up a stall at the entrance of the seafood market.
Xiang Yang remembered, and said with a smile: Is he selling pearl oysters?
Second brother, you're here, why don't you drop by and have a look? Xiang Hui said itchyly.
Xiang Hui had already inquired clearly with Chen Qingsheng through Fang Youqun, and knew that the pearl oysters that Wu Shiwen is selling now were provided by Xiang Yang, and pearls would be produced inside the oyster shells, even if a oyster sold for a hundred yuan, there would be a lot of people rushing to buy them .
Xiang Hui used to make some money by buying big lobsters in neighboring villages, but now he couldn't get big lobsters because of the three seafood vendors in the town, so he came up with the idea of pearl oysters.
Then go and have a look. Xiang Yang thought that it would be all right, and it would be a good idea to go and see the first person under his command who became the leader himself.
Xiang Hui immediately opened the car door, was the first to sit on it, and shouted at Chen Qingsheng: Old Chen, drive!
Hey, this kid just took Chen Qingsheng as the driver of his car.
Chen Qingsheng shook his head with a smile, and didn't care about Xiang Hui, and sat directly in the driver's seat.
On the other hand, Xiang Yang said with a straight face: It's not big or small, can you call Lao Chen?
Xiang Hui immediately faltered, Am I joking?
Okay, it's okay. Chen Qingsheng said with a smile: Let's call him Lao Chen, I feel closer to him.
Old Chen? Fang Youqun shouted immediately.
Get out. Chen Qingsheng raised his hand and slapped Fang Youqun.
Chen Qingsheng hurriedly dodged, aggrieved: Why does he call you Lao Chen to be close, and I call you Lao Chen to get out?
Just because his brother is my boss, Chen Qingsheng thought in his heart, of course he couldn't say this in front of Xiang Yang, Chen Qingsheng said with a straight face: Because I don't want to get close to you.
Okay. Xiang Yang was amused by these people, and said directly: Master Chen, go directly to the seafood market.
Okay. Chen Qingsheng and Xiang Yang got into the car, fastened their seat belts, and drove towards the vegetable market with one kick of the accelerator.
At the gate of the seafood market, the van couldn't get in, so Xiang Yang took Xiang Hui and Fang Youqun down, while Chen Qingsheng stayed in the car to avoid encountering the traffic police.
Chen Qingsheng didn't care, he wasn't very interested in pearl oysters, and he just lay down in the car smoking a cigarette for a while, but he reminded Xiang Yang not to stay too long, otherwise, even if there were people in the car, the traffic police would come to post a ticket, seriously. Even trailers.
Xiang Yang nodded naturally, and quickly led Xiang Hui and the others towards the seafood market.
Boss, oysters, look at the fresh oysters?
Boss, do you want swimming crabs? They are big and delicious.
The wild cobia just caught on the shore only sells forty yuan a catty.
Xiang Yang walked all the way, and the vendors on both sides immediately yelled, this seafood market is not much different from the general vegetable market, the vegetable market sells pork and vegetables, and the seafood market sells seafood.
Xiang Hui walked all the way and looked around, It's so lively, Fang Zi, isn't that squid and scallops? Why are there people selling those things? Will anyone buy them?
Fang Youqun didn't know much about it, There should be, maybe it's specially for people who don't have money.
You two know nothing. Xiang Yang glared at the two behind him, Stop talking nonsense if you don't know.
Huh? Xiang Hui said strangely: Brother, how can I not know about squid and scallops? I'm tired of eating those things, and no one picks them up when they are thrown as trash at the beach.
I didn't say you don't know squid and scallops, I mean you don't know the prices of squid and scallops. Xiang Yang whispered.
Xiang Hui was stunned, Very valuable?
Just at this time, they passed by a seafood stall, as if answering Xiang Hui's words, Squid, big squid costs 60 yuan a catty, does the boss want to take one back to make chicken soup?
I Xiang Hui almost swallowed his breath.
Does the boss want a cuttlefish? The vendor's eyes lit up immediately.
I don't want it. Xiang Hui felt that his heart was bleeding, this thing was really thrown away by the sea, and no one picked it up!
Sixty yuan a catty? Xiang Hui felt that he had lost a golden mountain.
Actually, there is nothing to regret. Xiang Yang said: In fact, cuttlefish is rarely used for cooking alone, and is usually used as a seasoning in chicken soup, so its market demand is actually very small. Some merchants are not willing to sell it, so it can maintain this value.
What Xiang Yang didn't say was that cuttlefish actually became more expensive the further inland they went. In places like Lianghu, a dry cuttlefish weighing two catties would even cost several hundred dollars. The moldy dried cuttlefish was thrown by the river. In the early years, in some inland villages, old people often picked up the moldy cuttlefish. In the words of the old man, the cuttlefish is not mold, but salt, and it is still the same after washing. eat.
So cuttlefish has always been the seafood that purchasers are least willing to buy, and it is only natural for villagers in the coastal areas to treat cuttlefish as garbage.
There are four entrances in the whole seafood market.
Xiang Yang and the others went in through the west entrance.
The west entrance is the shortest intersection, and the flow of people is the smallest. Only a few vendors put their goods on the ground.
The south entrance is a long alley, the east of the alley is low residential buildings, and the west of the alley is rows of magnificently decorated tall buildings.
Xiang Yang and the others entered from the west entrance, walked through the crowded seafood market to the south entrance, and saw Wu Shiwen at a glance. He placed two large fish baskets on the ground, and both fish baskets were filled with fish bigger than a palm. Clam shells, and beside the two fish baskets, there is a large glass bottle with many beautiful pearls in it.
When Xiang Yang saw Wu Shiwen, he was yelling vigorously, Did you see these pearls? These are all natural pearls, which are all produced from these mussels. The pearl production rate of these mussels is extremely high. If they can be opened to When a good pearl is opened, it is earned.
