My Deep-sea Fishery

Chapter 73 Captain, I want to contract pearl oysters



The crew lifted the squid out of the freezer to feed the sea lions.

Soon the sea lions were fed by the crew, and they were doing all kinds of cute moves below the deck to please the crew on the deck.

After Xiang Yang boarded the boat, he took a piece of cantaloupe from Uncle Xiang and gnawed on it.

It's a pity. He Mingde leaned on the side of the boat and looked at the bottom of the deck, There are a lot of pearls in this sea area, and now there are so many sea lions, but it's not easy to salvage them.

Xiang Yang wanted to say that these sea lions should not be bothered, and those who want to go down to fish for pearls can just go down, but when he thought about it, it might be useless to say it, so he didn't bother to say it.

Just like tourists who dare to feed sea lions but never put their hands into the pool when they see sea lions in ocean theme parks, the crew members on board may not dare to swim in the same sea area as sea lions for a while.

Wu Shiwen, come here. But when talking about pearls, Xiang Yang thought of what Wu Shiwen said to himself.

Here you are, Captain, what's the matter? Wu Shiwen trotted over when he heard Xiang Yang calling.

Xiang Yang first smiled and told He Mingde about bringing the pearl oysters to the city to gamble on oysters, and then looked at Wu Shiwen and said, How is it? Have you asked everyone how the harvest is?

Whether pearl oysters are used to gamble oysters to make money or to open oysters to get pearls to make money is not determined by just one or two people opening a few oyster shells, but also depends on everyone's harvest.

I've already asked, Captain. Wu Shiwen said with a smile: There are quite a few white pearls, but none of the black or gold pearls. It must be more profitable to bet on oysters.

He Mingde looked at Wu Shiwen in surprise, Gambling with mussels? Is this the way you came up with?

Wu Shiwen smiled and patted his head.

He Mingde immediately understood.

Xiaoyang, do you also want to get a batch of pearl mussels to sell? He Mingde asked.

Xiang Yang immediately shook his head, I still have a lot of things to do after I go back this time, how can I have this time?

He Mingde nodded, knowing that Xiang Yang was telling the truth. After going back to sea this time, ordinary crew members can take a few days off and rest, but he and Xiang Yang will never be able to rest. They need to deal with so many catches, and some high-grade catches need them to find a market. .

However, the profit from betting clams is huge. I was wondering if I could find a few agents. Xiang Yang explained.

Big profit? He Mingde gasped after doing the calculation, These mussels are sold according to the method Wu Shiwen said. If someone really buys them, one mussel can be sold for a hundred yuan, ten mussels can be sold for a thousand yuan, and a hundred mussels can be sold for a hundred yuan. A clam can sell for tens of thousands of yuan!

What I'm worried about is that everyone will just try something new, and I'm afraid it won't sell so well in the future.

That's true. He Mingde nodded, looking thoughtful, not knowing what he was thinking.

Xiang Yang is actually thinking about the profit in it himself.

The profit of pearl mussels is indeed very high, but it is impossible for Xiang Yang to squat in the vegetable market with a sack of pearl mussels like Wu Shiwen. After thinking about it for a while, Xiang Yang feels that it is better for him to be a supplier like before. .

Are you going to sell it only this time, or do you have an idea to get a batch of pearl oysters and sell them back every time you go to sea? Xiang Yang looked at Wu Shiwen and said.

Wu Shiwen's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: Captain, can we come here to make batches of pearl oysters every time we go to sea?

Fishing boats generally do not have a fixed route when sailing in the sea. They are always chasing fish schools. Wherever the fish schools swim, the fishing boat will go there. Wu Shiwen never thought that he could get pearl mussels with such a high pearl production rate every time he went to sea. , That's why this time I tried my best to get more pearl mussels back, but what Xiang Yang meant seemed to be that he could get back some pearl mussels every time he went to sea.

Xiang Yang smiled and showed his white teeth, Of course there is no problem. There are a lot of pearl oysters in this sea area. Why don't you just come and fish them when you go out to sea?

Wu Shiwen calmed down. The next time he goes out to sea to fish for pearl mussels, it means that the fishing boat has a fixed fishing ground with a fixed route. The fuel consumed in the sea area is definitely not a small number.

Captain, do you want to include pearl mussels as part of the fishing income in the future? Wu Shiwen said.

I have this idea. Xiang Yang nodded. If a stable sales channel or agent can be found, Xiang Yang can indeed make a lot of money by including pearl mussels as part of his catch.

He Mingde shook his head, I don't see this matter well. Consumers may try to find something fresh at first, but after buying it a few times and not being able to open any valuable pearls, I guess no one will buy them again in the future. If the quantity is small, it can be sold by lip service, but if the quantity is large, it must be thrown into one’s own hands.”

Xiang Yang frowned in thought.

What He Mingde said makes sense, pearl clam meat is very worthless.

Once the gambling mussels cannot be sold, selling a batch of pearl mussels as mussel shells will definitely not make any money back.

Try it first! Xiang Yang said solemnly: Wu Shiwen, you tell the other crew members about this, and you take advantage of today's vacation to catch more pearl oysters, and then you take them to the city to try the market. If it’s easy to sell, I’ll bring up a batch of pearl oysters next time I go to sea to find a market. Of course, if you think it’s easy to sell and want to sell it again, you can come to me to buy it. I’ll definitely have a certain price when I sell it to you. We will try our best to leave enough profit for you.”

Captain, if it's easy to sell, can I contract the pearl oysters salvaged on the ship by myself? Wu Shiwen asked.

You contracted by yourself? Xiang Yang and He Mingde looked at Wu Shiwen in surprise.

Wu Shiwen said seriously: In fact, I still have some spare money in my business these years. I should be able to contract the pearl mussels alone. I want to try to see if I can make gambling mussels into an industry.

Xiang Yang was speechless immediately, Is it the first time you go to sea and you want to resign and do it alone?

It's not a solo job, but I still earn a living with you, the captain. Wu Shiwen said with a sneer.

Xiang Yang thought about it carefully. At present, no one is harvesting pearl mussels in the seafood market, but there are actually many sea areas in the ocean that are rich in pearl mussels.

At present, human beings’ attitude towards pearl clams is basically to hire pearl hunters at high prices to search for pearls in the sea. Pearl hunters often need to pry open hundreds of shells to find a plump, round and valuable pearl. A huge waste of resources.

Xiang Yang didn't immediately agree to Wu Shiwen, but he didn't expressly refuse, If I came to this sea area to salvage pearl mussels, I would definitely salvage a large number of them. It's not a trivial matter to contract the pearl mussels on my ship. Don't rush to make a decision. See Let’s talk about it after considering the market.”
