Peerless Little Immortal Doctor

Chapter 169: The Great Harvest



But the two women hadn't anticipated that at such a depth, there would not only be fish but also in great abundance!

"Ah! Sister Caiming, something is off with these fish!" When the fishnets were pulled out of the water, Tan Jingxue suddenly screamed.

"I see them, they're yellow croakers!" Liang Caiming was equally exhilarated.

Having fished in the sea for many years, the two of them were familiar with the prices of different fish varieties.

Even if the yellow croakers were frozen, they would be tens of yuan per jin.

These fresh and lively yellow croakers could fetch at least a hundred yuan per jin!

If the net were full of yellow croakers, this haul could earn them at least eight hundred thousand yuan!!!

This was beyond Liang Caiming's wildest dreams.

A haul of eight hundred thousand yuan, and from just fifty meters depth; it was unbelievable.

"Brother Xia Liu, are these fish quite impressive? I often catch over ten jin, and if I can't eat them all, I throw them to the cats and dogs."

Seeing Tan Jingxue so excited, Xiao Hu couldn't help but inquire.

However, before Xia Liu could respond, Tan Jingxue became agitated.

"Damn it, over ten jin, and you feed them to dogs! These fish can fetch over a hundred yuan per jin!"

She couldn't imagine it anymore, what kind of village this was to waste resources so nonchalantly.

Xiao Hu hung his head in embarrassment, if he had known the fish were worth so much per jin, he would have gotten rich a long time ago.

"Ah! A hundred plus yuan per jin, I used to often catch them to feed to my cat."

"Me too..."

The other youngsters on the boat, having heard the price from Tan Jingxue, began to express their regrets.

In fact, it wasn't their fault, previously bullied by Shanyan Village, it hadn't been easy for them to even leave the village, let alone think about this matter.

"Hehe, don't feel it's a waste, from now on we're going to earn even more," Xia Liu buoyed everyone's spirits, then immediately had them haul up all the nets.

When the net was brought aboard, the knowledgeable Liang Caiming and Tan Jingxue were thrilled once again.

Not only was the quantity of fish they caught enormous, but the variety was also staggering.

Alongside the yellow croakers were the astronomically priced large yellow croakers!

"Large yellow croakers! And they are several jin each!"

"Jingxue, pinch my face to see if it hurts!"

"Ah! It hurts, it's really happening!"

"Good heavens, so many large yellow croakers, this haul must bring in over a million yuan!"

The two women, oblivious to the people around them, revelled in their euphoria.

It had been a very long time since they had seen so many large and small yellow croakers.

Today's catch nearly took their breath away.

The price of small yellow croakers at a hundred yuan each was shocking enough, but the large yellow croakers, weighing severals jin each, were worth at least eight hundred to a thousand yuan per jin!

This haul amounted to at least five tons of fish!

And with a majority being large yellow croakers, earning a million yuan seemed to be an understatement!
Experience more tales on empire

The youngsters, upon learning the situation from the two women, were also stunned beyond comprehension.

Xia Liu, however, remained casual, a smile always on his face.

He had known all along that there were large schools of fish below; hauling them up simply equated to making money.

Liang Caiming stole glances at Xia Liu now and then, increasingly realizing how incredibly capable this man was.

Why did he know that casting the net fifty meters down would yield such a massive quantity of fish?

"Guys, you handle these fish according to the two ladies' instructions first; I will go to the Hejing County dock and wait for you."

After discussing, Xia Liu decided to go to Hejing County first.

On one hand, it was to let Ye Ming and Huang Xue discuss how many fish the hotel should keep; on the other hand, it was to let Ye Ming contact those customers who needed sea fish.

After returning home, Zhang Xiaoxue hadn't gotten up yet; Xia Liu drove to Longteng Hotel.

"Ah! Is the chairman not joking?" Learning that Xia Liu had just caught a few tons of little yellow croakers and large yellow croakers, Ye Ming was so scared that he almost dropped the water glass in his hand.

"No joke, you call Manager Huang, Manager Zhang to tally up, keep enough for three days, the rest you coordinate with other hotels or customers from other places to come and buy," Xia Liu knew Ye Ming couldn't quite imagine, so he pulled out the photos he had just taken with his phone to show him.

When he saw Xia Liu standing on the fishing boat with a full warehouse of yellow croakers, Ye Ming was completely exhilarated.

The hotel had little yellow croakers and large yellow croakers, but only a few, because these two types of fish were quite rare.

They were not easy to buy; previously, as soon as a customer would come, they would ask if there were any yellow croakers.

After oysters appeared later, customers slowly started to forget about yellow croakers.

Now, with this batch of yellow croakers in store, the hotel's daily sales volume felt like it could increase several times over!

Ye Ming hurried to call Huang Xue to discuss, and after deciding, Ye Ming called the truck driver, asking him to drive to the county dock.

After handling it, he flipped through the phone book, continuing to call managers of hotels in the city.

In Binlai City, any restaurant or hotel had a huge demand for yellow croakers.

Learning that there were several tons of large yellow croakers docked at Hejing County pier.

Those who received calls from Ye Ming all expressed that they would immediately set out, even if all were sold, they needed to reserve a few dozen kilograms for them; otherwise, they couldn't continue with their friends.

Ye Ming handled these with ease; after notifying everyone, Xia Liu and Ye Ming both drove separately to the dock.

Zhang Qing and Huang Xue also went to the dock with them.

The two women looked at Xia Liu with a strange gaze.

Huang Xue had been a manager at Longyun Hotel for two years and was very familiar with seafood, so she was somewhat doubtful that Xia Liu could get several tons of yellow croakers.

After learning from Huang Xue about the expensiveness of large and little yellow croakers, Zhang Qing also could hardly believe it.

Xia Liu didn't explain much; he understood that only when they truly saw with their own eyes, would their doubts be dispelled.

Indeed, after waiting for about ten minutes at the dock, the fishing boat driven by Liang Caiming and Tan Jingxue finally arrived.

Seeing that big guy, except for Xia Liu, Ye Ming and the two women were all shocked.

When the fishing boat docked, the four of them immediately went up.

"Holy cow! They really are large yellow croakers!" Seeing the fish piled up on the deck, Huang Xue exclaimed in surprise.

Ye Ming also gulped down several sips of saliva; his admiration for Xia Liu was growing.

Last night he had just finished preparing a new menu, which could restore the hotel's business to its peak.

If these yellow croakers were added, the hotel's business could reach even higher levels!

When the truck arrived, Li Dazhuang, Xiao Hu, and others loaded the fish into the truck box by box.

This time, Ye Ming had allocated one thousand kilograms of large yellow croachers and one thousand kilograms of little yellow croakers for Longteng Hotel.

At the strategy of Huang Xue and Zhang Qing, Longyun Hotel requested the same amount.

Now, the customers of the two hotels hadn't burst yet, taking back all the fish could easily cause unnecessary losses.

Xia Liu had no objections; there was no need to rush with the first batch of yellow croakers.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have let Ye Ming contact the dealers from other places.

Since those dealers hadn't arrived yet, Xia Liu suggested everyone go have a meal first, leaving one or two people here to watch.

After discussing, Huang Xue wanted to take the fish back, and so did Ye Ming, whereas Liang Caiming and the others hadn't eaten.

So Xia Liu volunteered to stay and watch the boat, and Zhang Qing also proposed to stay...
