Super Zoo

The fish density in the entire Shuijun Lake is actually not high. Based on polyculture production, domestic fish production can be close to 4 tons per acre, and more than two to three tons are common.

Shuijun Lake, excluding a small amount of shallow water areas around it, has a total of 123 acres of area for fish farming. If calculated as "full", it is enough to raise 400 tons of fish. However, Shuijun Lake is not a fish pond after all. It also plays the role of receiving tourists. This was the reason why it was contracted to Su Ming at a low price. Therefore, Su Ming’s breeding density at that time was not high. It was roughly estimated. , in the entire Shuijun Lake, there are probably between 200 and 250 tons of fish every year.

According to the market price, if they can all be sold, it will cost three to four million, which is not an astonishing figure.

But the profits are huge. The labor and feed at Shuijun Lake are basically free, and they have been earned back elsewhere, and some are still profitable. We didn't spend a dime on the fry. Apart from hiring some workers to set up the net and spending some money, there was basically no other big expense. It can be said that it was all in vain.

What's more, the current Shuijun Lake can only produce more than two hundred tons of fish! The large channel between Shuijun Lake and the reservoir has been opened. As long as the sales can keep up, the fish from Huating Reservoir can be brought and sold. You know, the breeding area of ​​Huating Reservoir is more than ten times that of Shuijun Lake!

However, the premise of all this is that there is a market. Without a market, even if there are 10,000 tons of fish, it will be of no use and they will have to wait to die and stink!

At present, several big hotels have received orders, but they are not enough to fully absorb all the fish in Shuijun Lake. The zoo sets up a stall selling fish by the lake, which is just a small gimmick. It sells two to three hundred kilograms a day, which is another source of income for the zoo employees. Finding a small way to generate income will not solve the big problem of Shuijun Lake.

So in the final analysis, we have to find a way in the fish market. The fish market in Yangchuan City is for the people of the city. There are many small fishmongers, and this is the main battlefield for sales.

But the fish market is not that easy to open.

Hotels and restaurants are high-end or at least mid-range, while most small vendors are for the common people's food baskets. They still adhere to the principle of safety and are unwilling to change suppliers easily. Moreover, there are too many small vendors, making it difficult to communicate and promote one by one.

There is another potential reason. Vendors in the fish market are unwilling to change suppliers, largely because their current supplier is Huating Fishery Company.

On the one hand, the fish in Huating Reservoir is not much worse than that in Shuijun Lake, at least the average person may not be able to taste it. On the other hand, those who work in the aquatic products market all know that the background of Huating Reservoir is not very clean, and it is better not to offend if possible. There were small traders who changed suppliers in the past, but the outcome was not very good. They were quickly squeezed out of the aquatic product market in various ways.

"Isn't this too overbearing?" Su Ming asked Su Meng with eyes wide open.

Su Meng fiercely waved his fists twice, apparently intending to solve the problem by force.

"Of course this won't work. We are law-abiding citizens! Let me think about this carefully!" It's definitely not appropriate to be harsh. Huating Company has bullied and dominated the market. Although it is well known, if you really think about it, you will really catch it. Without any evidence that he had violated the law, it cannot be said that those fishmongers were afraid of Zhou Jin's revenge, so that means Zhou Jin had committed a crime.

…

Comrade Zhou Jin got his wish and met with the director. However, Zhou Jin was not very happy. He and the director came to visit him on behalf of the fishery association of this city. Zhou Jin wanted to speak several times, but he and the director calmly talked and did not give him a chance.

Another annoying thing is that the fishing company is running out of liquidity. Zhou Jin makes more money, and has more places to spend money. Not to mention that the fishing company has a very large scene, supporting all aspects of human relations, and the investment cost is a huge sum. Moreover, Zhou Jin has been in prison for more than ten years. After too many hard times and being a single man, I have always spent money when I have it and like to enjoy myself very much, so the company does not have much liquidity in its account.

According to the rules of previous years, the fry are put into the water, the feed is prepared, and the money is sold at the end of the year. The cycle comes again and again. Zhou Jin has already ordered the feed and fry. There are not many places where we have to spend money this year, and the money in the account is enough.

However, the bald head was injured one after another, he himself was seriously injured and hospitalized, and the fish fry were lost... After a series of blows, funds became obviously tight. This is also a common problem among private companies. They do not have sufficient reserved funds and are aggressive all the way when things are going well. However, it is difficult to deal with various unexpected natural and man-made disasters.

For those who do business, working capital is the blood in their veins. Once the funds are not functioning properly, the entire company will collapse. Unlike other industrial companies, Huating Reservoir can obtain mortgage loans from banks. The reservoir is rented and is about to expire. The real property is only a self-built small villa with no real estate certificate and a few cars. The fishing boat is quite old, and the mortgage is less than a few bucks.

In the past, this wouldn't be a big deal. After all, as long as the fishery business runs normally, money will continue to be made. What's more, it's almost the end of the year, and it's the time when the fish are on the market. Once the fish are sold, the money will come back soon.

In the early stage of the reservoir, some fish died inexplicably. However, in the later stage, it was better, with fewer fish dying. The fish also grew well and were much fatter than in previous years.

He was about to make money, but several big hotels that he had long-term cooperation with suddenly informed him that they would no longer order fish from the reservoir for the time being!

Zhou Jin Mingrui realized that this problem was very serious!

For the total output of the reservoir, these orders are not large and not fatal. His main sales channel is the local fish market, and also sells to other places.

However, the fish payment of high-end hotels is settled in one lump sum, and hundreds of thousands of yuan can be returned in a short period of time, while the fish market is different, and the return of payment is relatively slow.

In addition, supplying fish to large hotels, from a certain perspective, is not for making money, but for building a reputation and letting these large hotels endorse the fish from the reservoir.

For example, a certain five-star hotel uses my fish, and my fish sells very well in a certain hotel. With the reputation, more people will come to sell fish, and more people will be willing to cooperate and buy fish from the reservoir.

On the contrary, if it is spread that a certain hotel has always used fish from the reservoir, but this year it does not buy from him, but changes to another one, it will be a big blow to the reputation of Huating Fisheries.

The local market will not be affected for the time being, because Zhou Jin has the final say in the Yangchuan City fish market, and no fishmonger dares to order fish from Shuijun Lake for the time being; but it is different for those sellers from other places. Some big sellers are not inferior to Zhou Jin in strength, and they buy fish from him because they are attracted by the good quality and reputation of reservoir fish, not because Zhou Jin has power.

Therefore, although the sales volume of those hotels is not large, the significance is very important. If these orders are snatched away by others, it can be expected that Huating Fisheries will have fewer and fewer orders in the future, and more people, especially sellers from other places, will turn their attention to Shuijun Lake.

PS: Boss Zhou is courting death again. How do you say that if you don't do it, you won't die. What do you think, should we completely cripple him this time?
