Fisherwoman: After my divorce, I became rich by fishing at sea
Chapter 610: Tuna for Sale
Well, now it's all exposed.
Fu Wan smiled at the stunned crowd, feeling so embarrassed that she almost dug her toes into the two-bedroom apartment.
"Is this the lady from China who fishes? How can she catch so many tuna?"
"It's not like she caught them, is it? Look at all the men here, how could she have caught them all? Maybe she just got an honor."
"Haha, that's not polite at all. I know these unlucky guys. They can't catch many fish every time they go out to sea. If you are capable, why didn't you catch any tuna?"
There was a lot of discussion in the crowd. Although Fu Wan didn't quite understand what they were saying, she could still understand when they mentioned China.
"I want to ask, is fishing for tuna illegal?"
She was a little unhappy. She had been out playing all day and was hungry even though she had brought some snacks.
How can she go back with all these people blocking her way here?
"Breaking the rules? Oh no, not at all."
A middle-aged man squeezed out from the crowd, his eyes glowing green as he looked at Fu Wan.
"My beautiful lady, you are amazing! There is no one as amazing as you in our town. Would you like to sell this tuna? I can offer a high price."
Jack knew this man, so he turned around and translated for Fu Wan and introduced the man's identity.
"This uncle is William, Wan, Bai, the owner of the largest seafood restaurant in town. If we sell our tuna to him, we will definitely make a lot of money."
After saying that, he winked at Fu Wan and Bai Qianzhou.
William looked at Fu Wan with hope. He had been in business for more than 20 years, so of course he had some experience.
Although there were several men present, the one who could make the decision was definitely this woman.
Didn’t you see how these two men unconsciously protected the lady in the middle?
It's December now, and it's hard to find tuna that's so fresh and good quality, let alone in this remote town. Even in the most prosperous places in Los Angeles, it's hard to find tuna that's so fresh and good quality.
William was very confident that if he raised the price a little bit, he would be able to get these tunas, and they would appear on the tables of the rich tomorrow.
In this way, he can make a lot of money.
However, Fu Wan's decision was beyond his expectations.
"No, I'm not selling this bluefin tuna."
Fu Fengying didn't know if she had ever tasted this precious fish in her life. Since they had just arrived, Fu Wan thought it was a good opportunity to let them try it.
As soon as these words came out, William suddenly became anxious.
"Ma'am, I'll pay you eighty dollars a pound. Based on the weight of this tuna, you can make a fortune!"
After William finished speaking, Bai Qianzhou translated it for Fu Wan attentively.
His job was taken away from him, and Jack could only stare in anger.
"Wan, the pounds here are a little different from the Chinese pounds. As far as I know, your country has a little more pounds."
Jack gestured to Fu Wan and said that to be honest, he would rather sell the fish.
At eighty dollars a pound, this fish could fetch at least two thousand dollars, which was Jack's salary for nearly a year and a half.
This is when he works two jobs a day.
Fu Wan was a little confused by what she said, and Bai Qianzhou, who was standing next to her, explained it to her in time.
"According to the measurement units of the United States and China, one pound is approximately 464 grams, or 9 taels."
Fu Wan understood after hearing this, but she still didn't intend to change her decision.
"I'm not selling this fish. You two can make your own decisions."
Seeing that Fu Wan had made up her mind, Jack stopped trying to persuade her.
He spread his hands towards William and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. William, we don't sell this bluefin tuna.
But if you are interested, I, the yellowfin tuna, can talk to you."
William was a little disappointed when he heard this. It was the first time he saw someone so calm in the face of so much money.
It’s yellow fin, it’s better than nothing.
"Little guy, you know yellowfin tuna is cheaper. Let me think about it. Since we're so lucky tonight, how about 20 dollars a pound?"
As soon as these words came out, Jack took a breath.
I know there’s a big difference between bluefin and yellowfin, but this is too big!
"Mr. William, can't you add some more?"
Now the one who was looking forward to it was Jack.
Fu Wan's eyes turned and she came up with another idea.
She turned her head and asked Bai Qianzhou, "Are you selling this fish?"
"Sell it, otherwise why would I keep it? Or, take it back with me?"
"You must be kidding! This fish weighs dozens of kilograms, enough for my family to eat."
Who would eat yellowfin tuna when there is bluefin tuna?
“Then sell them together.”
With Bai Qianzhou's answer, Fu Wan pulled Jack aside again.
"Tell that guy you'd like to sell him both yellowfin tuna for $22 a pound?"
Finally, Fu Wan thought for a moment and added, "If that doesn't work out, we'll drive it to Los Angeles tomorrow to sell it. I'm sure someone will buy it."
When Jack heard this, he instinctively translated it to William. When William heard that both yellowfin tuna would be sold to him, he hesitated for two minutes and then agreed to Fu Wan's proposal.
In fact, it was because Fu Wan’s price increase was just right. If it was a little higher, William really wouldn’t make much money.
After all, although the restaurant makes a lot of money, Los Angeles also has to pay a lot of miscellaneous taxes.
The deal was done, and naturally someone immediately sent a scale. Landlord Bob saw that everyone was gathered there and didn't leave, so he thought for a moment and started promoting it immediately.
"Ladies and gentlemen, these fish were caught by renting my boat. If you go out to sea, you can also rent my boat!"
It would be a waste not to use the ready-made advertisement. Although Bob has many boats, he is not the only landlord here.
Fu Wan was also impressed when she saw this. Look how quick his brain works, otherwise how could he become a landlord!
You know what, many people were interested immediately. The next day happened to be Sunday, so Bob rented out a lot of boats.
This made Bob very happy. When Tom paid for the overtime of the boat, this guy refused to accept it.
He is on the right track.
Fu Wan suddenly remembered that there were a few miscellaneous fish in the fish box, so she immediately opened the box and took out two blackhead fish and red sea bream.
"Bai Qianzhou, give this fish to that uncle. It will be our boat fare for the delay."
Bai Qianzhou nodded in agreement and took her to communicate with Bob.
Bob really didn't expect Fu Wan to give him fish. He wanted to refuse immediately, but after seeing the sea bream in Fu Wan's hand, he swallowed his words of refusal.
"Oh my goodness, kind lady, are you really giving me this fish?"
Fu Wan nodded and put the fish on the wooden board beside her.
This touched Bob very much. Wow, it was the first time someone gave him such an expensive fish. The Chinese are really different from what they say on TV!
Damn black-hearted news!
After sending out the two fish, Fu Wan and her friends still had a larger red sea bream and a red snapper in their fish box. What surprised her was that Robert’s bluefin tuna was not for sale either!
