Starting to go to the sea: I really didn’t want to be a sea king

Guanjingyang Yellow Croaker Breeding Base No. 1.

"Ayang, there are 20 hatchery pools here, 6 of which are one-month-old fry, totaling 180,000 fish."

Youvid pointed to a row of rectangular cement pools in the base and said.

One-month-old fry are the most suitable for breeding. If they are smaller, the survival rate cannot be guaranteed. If they are larger, they are expensive. The cost of fry is too high and it is not cost-effective.

Chu Yang nodded and asked, "Can I take a look?"

Drinking is drinking, and doing business is business. Chu Yang will naturally not place an order in a muddle just because he has drunk a meal.

"No problem, take a look."

Youvid also handed a short-handled scoop net to Chu Yang.

The latter took the scoop net and scooped a few nets in the six hatchery pools one by one.

One-month-old yellow croaker fry weighs about 100 grams, about the size of two fingers, with a yellow back, a bit like a native crucian carp, but of course the price is definitely different.

Chu Yang took the yellow croaker fry and carefully examined it in his palm.

According to the knowledge learned from Liu Jiafu and the two technicians, a good yellow croaker fry has a flat and slender body, bright yellow body color, gradually turns silver-white abdomen, no red or black spots on the body, and complete fins.

He also dissected two small fry with a knife and looked at the meat of the fry. It was snow-white and tender, indicating that the water quality in the hatching pond was well maintained and there were no parasites.

In addition, smelling the fish belly fish farm, there is only a normal fishy smell, indicating that no medicine has been sprayed.

The fry sprayed with medicine will have a slight pungent smell in the belly.

Obviously, these fry in the Youweide farm are healthy fry without spraying.

This was also within Chu Yang's expectations. If Old Yu had to tamper with even the fish fry, his business in the future would not be so big.

"Okay, I'll take all these 180,000 fish fry."

After checking that there was no problem, Chu Yang immediately made the decision.

Hearing this, Yu Wei pulled Chu Yang's hand and shook it vigorously.

"Thank you so much, Yang..."

"Alas, don't rush to thank me, we haven't bargained yet, maybe after the bargaining, you don't want to thank me, and want to hit me." Chu Yang made a joke.

"How could it be, you can come to me to buy fish fry, which is a big help to me." Yu Wei said.

Chu Yang raised his eyebrows and said, "Old You, is your situation really so bad? Didn't they say that the yellow croaker fry were sold out as soon as they were put on the market? How come..."

You Weide shook his head and said, "Ayang, you are reading the news from several years ago. At that time, the yellow croaker fry had just been put on the market and was indeed in short supply. Even my first batch of more than 2 million yellow croaker fry made me earn more than 300,000 yuan at the time, which also gave me the motivation to start a company, but later..."

In fact, even if You Weide didn't say it, Chu Yang could probably guess the subsequent development of the situation.

Low grain prices hurt farmers, not only in agriculture, but also in fisheries. It's nothing more than other local people seeing You Weide making money, and followed suit, resulting in an oversupply of yellow croaker fry.

Moreover, breeding yellow croaker fry is different from farming. It requires higher technology. There are also many people who bought yellow croaker fry but lost money, which has brought huge adverse effects to Guanjingyang yellow croaker fry.

All these reasons combined have led to the situation that within a few years, the supply of Guanjingyang yellow croaker fry has gone from being in short supply to being unsold.

When Chu Yang first met Liu Jiafu, he asked him if he was in great need of customers. The latter said that there were still 800,000 fry that had not been sold. In fact, he was still conservative.

According to You Wei De's estimate, there are at least 3 million fry that meet the conditions for release in Sandu Town.

"Old You, you have revealed all the information to me. Aren't you afraid that I will lower the price?" Chu Yang asked deliberately.

You Wei De showed a helpless bitter smile on his dark face and said, "It's not difficult to find out about this. If you want, you can just walk around the town and ask about it. Besides, you get what you pay for. You have also seen the quality of my fry. I believe that with your vision, Ayang, you will not be greedy for that little bit of cheapness and go to others."

"Old You, you are not honest, and you are setting me up." Chu Yang nodded at You Wei De.

"Okay, then tell me what price you can give me."

Youweide stretched out two fingers on his left hand, and raised the thumb and pinky of his right hand.

"Two dollars and sixty, this is the lowest price I can give."

Chu Yang held his chin with his hand, thought for more than ten seconds, and then nodded, "Okay, deal!"

Before coming here, he had inquired through various connections. He knew the market of yellow croaker fry very well, and he would not be easily cheated.

The price of two dollars and sixty is not high or low for one-month-old yellow croaker fry. In the past two years, it was difficult to get one even at five dollars, but the market is temporarily depressed now.

If Chu Yang is willing to bargain, he can definitely go upIt's a down payment, but it's only a dime or two per tail, and the total will not exceed 30,000 yuan.

For this little money, it's not worth leaving a bad impression on Youvid and Liu Jiafu, and even affecting Chu Yang's subsequent plans.

"Ah?!"

Seeing Chu Yang hesitate for so long, Youvid thought he was going to raise the Dragon Slaying Sword to bargain.

As a result, Chu Yang said "deal" directly, leaving him with a lot of bargaining words to say.

"Why, you're not happy, then I'll bargain more?" Chu Yang joked.

"No, no, how could it be, Ah Yang, don't tease me." Youvid replied quickly.

Chu Yang put away his smile and said seriously: "I won't bargain for the price, but I have one condition. You have to help me transport this batch of fry to my fish farm, and you are responsible for the loss in the middle."

Youvid didn't think much about it and nodded: "No problem."

"Happy cooperation!"

"Happy cooperation!"

After discussing the cooperation, the two parties quickly signed the contract.

Until Chu Yang's 50,000 yuan reservation was deposited into the card, Youvid smiled with relief on his face.

"Ayang, to be honest, if it weren't for your fry money, I would have to borrow money from others to buy fish feed next month."

Chu Yang smiled and said: "We are a win-win cooperation."

After signing the contract, Youvid invited Chu Yang to visit the yellow croaker fish farm.

The current Guanjingyang Yellow Croaker Breeding Company is still small in scale, with only two fish farms and 12 cages in total, breeding more than 300,000 yellow croakers in total, and the normal output can reach an output value of 8 million.

Of course, that is just an estimate. Currently, less than half of the yellow croakers meet the requirements for market release.

"Even if it is less than half, there are still tens of thousands of them. It shouldn't be that serious." Chu Yang said puzzledly.

The farmed yellow croakers on the market now sell for about 30 yuan for half a catty to one catty (the price was better before the large-scale farming of yellow croakers. The farmed yellow croakers in the 2000s were more expensive than now). The purchase price is 20 yuan. If tens of thousands of catties of yellow croakers are sold, hundreds of thousands of yuan can be recovered.

"That's true, but... ah..."
