Chapter 188 I want to sell this fish for five hundred dollars!
"I'm going to sell this fish for 500 yuan. What do you think, uncle?" Chen Hui asked.

"What did you say?!"

Wu Shuisheng wondered if he had heard it wrong.

He put his fingers into his ears and dug around.

"I think it'll sell for five hundred!"

Chen Hui repeated it again very seriously.

This was the price that flashed through his mind when he saw the fish tail.

If it was Huang Xiu Lian, he might have lowered his expectations a little.

But He Juanjuan is obviously richer than Huang Xiu Lian, so she could try to be bolder.

"The worst that can happen is that they won't agree. We can just make it cheaper."

"Look, I'm not an experienced fisherman, and I've never sold such a big fish."

"It's normal to be worldly-wise, right?"

Chen Hui even thought of a way out.

At times like this, the simple-minded persona he had always maintained in front of the rich women because of his young age came in handy.

"Wake up!"

"Although this giant grouper is valuable, it is not worth this much. Rich people don't trade their money for their brains."

Wu Shuisheng thought about it and still felt that it wouldn’t work!
He patted Chen Hui and advised:
"This fish can only be sold for more than 200 yuan but less than 300 yuan at the most if it is taken to the purchasing point."

"No matter how wealthy your clients are, a few dozen bucks more is the limit. Don't be too greedy and scare away old customers."

Assuming that this fish can be sold for three hundred yuan at the purchasing point, and Chen Yaozu can add 30% to the price when selling it to him, that would be nearly four hundred yuan.

Chen Hui thought about it in his mind and grinned.

"Uncle, just wait for me for a second!"

"Um?!"

"Ah, no! Just wait for me to give you two hundred and fifty."

Chen Hui smiled.

He really did say it on purpose.

"Why don't we sell the fish first? Are we going to figure out how to divide the money?"

"If you can really sell it for 500, I don't want 250 from you. Just buy me a bottle of Red Star."

As Wu Shuisheng spoke, he grabbed the net bag that Chen Hui was holding, closed the mouth of the net and swam back.

It looked like a big fish weighing about 50 or 60 kilograms and full of vitality. It was very strong even in the net bag.

The fish jumped up suddenly and was able to drag Wu Shuisheng back several meters.

Chen Hui also swam over, grabbed the other side of the net bag, and dragged the fish back with Wu Shuisheng.

This fish is really big.

It's not easy for two people to be together.

It took Chen Hui and Wu Shuisheng twice as long to swim back to the fishing boat.

Wu Shuisheng got on the boat first and pulled up the two net bags, large and small, which were filled with crabs and giant squids, that Chen Hui had just tied.

Then he threw down a thicker, larger and more solid net bag.

Let Chen Hui put this net bag on top of the previous one.

He lowered three ropes from the boat and went into the water again. Together with Chen Hui, they tied the giant grouper in three places: front, middle and back.

This makes it easier to pull the fish and prevents the big fish from struggling and successfully tearing the net apart and escaping.

"Wow! So big!?"

"Chen Hui, did you catch a pig in the sea?"

"You really need help with a fish this big. You can't catch it alone."

"What kind of fish is this? What kind of fish is this?"

A crowd of onlookers had already stood on the boat, watching Chen Hui and Wu Shuisheng handle the big fish in the water and discussing the matter.

"You hold on from below, and I'll go up and pull!"

After tying the big fish, Wu Shuisheng climbed up the ladder again.

The big grouper was dragged out of the water and bounced heavily a few times. Chen Hui immediately reached out and grabbed it.

Wu Shuisheng pulled the big fish back into the boat with a shout of "Hey!" He put the big fish down, shook his arms, and shouted to the outside, "Come on up!"

As soon as Chen Hui returned to the fishing boat, he was surrounded.

"Chen Hui, what kind of fish did you catch that is so big?" Huang Xiu Lian asked hurriedly.

She had bought fish from Chen Hui several times.

The largest one is the five-jin grouper, and the others are two or three jin.

"You two really went down to the sea to catch this? Just two people, nothing else? That's it?!"

Even though she saw Chen Hui and Wu Shuisheng walking away with her own eyes, He Juanjuan still found it a little hard to believe.

"Chen Hui, you are so awesome!"

Huang Wenqian gave a thumbs up and said.

I thought of the image of the old fisherman that automatically appeared in my mind when I first heard Chen Hui say that he sold fish.

Suddenly I felt that I had seen too little of the world.

"Wait a minute, I'll raise the fish and show you."

Chen Hui pushed aside a few people and went over to work with Wu Shuisheng to set up the large water tank and oxygen equipment.

First take the outer layer of the net bag.

After putting the big fish in, take out the net bag.

Chen Hui was a little worried about Wu Shuisheng's blind cat-like heavy poke, and immediately observed the condition of the giant grouper.

Fortunately, only some scales were rubbed off the edge of the fish head.

This fish is not very good-looking to begin with, so this point is not noticeable and will not directly affect the selling price.

"Wow!!!!"

Huang Xiulian and a few others looked at the big fish in the water tank and exclaimed in unison.

"Sister-in-law, this fish is enough for you to eat for a month, right?" Huang Xiu Lian said to He Juanjuan.

"Is this a grouper? How much does a grouper this big cost?"

Wang Guixiang asked in surprise.

"This is called a giant grouper, a type of grouper."

"We rarely catch them here, and even fewer this big!"

"Grouper meat is delicious. It's expensive to begin with, and this big and rare one will be even more expensive."

Thinking about Chen Hui saying he wanted to sell it for five hundred, Wu Shuisheng still felt a little worried for these rich ladies.

I took the initiative to introduce myself to them, thinking of giving them some preventive care so that they would be mentally prepared.

"Money is not the problem. It's just how do we kill such a big fish and cook it after we kill it?"

"If I give this to my aunt, she definitely won't be able to prepare it!" He Juanjuan said worriedly.

"If you can't cook it, go find him!"

"Chen Hui is a great cook! Even state-owned restaurants want to hire him as a chef!" Wu Shuisheng said this with a proud smile on his face.

"Is this true?! So amazing?"

"Chen Hui, you are not honest. Why didn't you tell me earlier that you can cook so well?" Huang Xiu Lian asked in surprise.

Chen Hui's heart skipped a beat!

He quickly denied it, "No, no, no, that's not true. I was just being polite."

"How come it's gone! Those two old chefs couldn't beat you!"

"I'm telling you, Chen Yaozu's words don't sound like a joke. Think about it carefully when the weather gets cold!"

Wu Shuisheng really thinks that Chen Yaozu’s suggestion is good.

Afraid that Chen Hui would take this as a joke and not take it seriously, he emphasized it again loudly.

"Uncle." Chen Hui looked at Wu Shuisheng with a wry smile.

It would be exhausting to handle such a big fish.

He only wants to sell fish, not kill, chop or cook them.

"Let's talk about the fish first. How much do you plan to sell it for?" He Juanjuan brought the subject back.
