"Catch fish!" Looking at Jiang Hai's doubtful eyes, Pula Walton smiled, then patted Jiang Hai on the shoulder, then she stood up, and then began to direct Edward Anderson They went to catch fish, but it was different from catching fish to sell yesterday.
At that time, the purpose of catching fish was to catch fish schools, but now, the purpose of catching fish is for testing, so without encountering fish schools, I had already thrown the net into the sea, and collected all kinds of fish while running. kind of fish.
About an hour later, Edward Anderson saw that the pressure inside the net was almost gone, and he used the turbine to lift the fishing net up.
As the fishing nets landed, countless fish appeared in front of everyone.
The fish we caught yesterday were for sale, so there were not many types of fish, and they were basically caught according to the school of fish.
Before and after, all the fish together amounted to about ten kinds, but today was different.
As the fish came up from the net, Jiang Hai couldn't help but let out an ooh, because there were really many fish, and it wasn't quality, but quantity.
The total weight of these fish is only about two tons, but there are at least dozens of species. There are about 20 species of fish from the sea bream and catfish families alone.
The population of these two types of fish is not large, but there are many types. Jiang Hai often finds this kind of fish when diving.
This kind of fish often forms a group of three or five, and there may be no less than fifty species of these fish in the fishing ground of Jiang Hai alone.
For example, the more familiar sea breams include green sea bream, silver sea bream, white-eye sea bream, Irish sea bream, softmouth fish, bream, etc.
The same is true for the scorpion fish. There are fifty species of fish in this family of scorpion fish. Although Jiang Hai is not so complete, it is not too different.
These fish usually wander around, but Jiang Hai caught them all this time.
In addition to these two families of fish, others include American redfish, grouper, salmon, barracuda, mackerel, sea bream, mackerel, etc...
There are many of these fish in Jiang Hai's fishing grounds. Cod and haddock are also caught in the net.
In addition to fish, there are also a lot of squid, small octopus, herring, etc., all leaking out through the mesh.
But what surprised Jiang Hai was that there were some small eels inside. Jiang Hai had seen these eels before when he was diving.
But he really hadn't noticed it. Now that he said it, Jiang Haidai also noticed these fish.
"Is this... a lamprey?" Seeing this kind of eel in front of him, Pula Walton, who had no other reaction, screamed first, and then his eyes started to light up. Hearing her Yelling, Tommy Charles and the others here also came over.
"Well, it is indeed a lamprey. Our production of this thing here is not too high. I didn't expect that there are quite a lot..." Tommy Charles said with some surprise when he pulled out the eel from the mesh. Jiang Hai became even more puzzled by his words.
"Lamprey, also called lamprey, looks disgusting when you look at its mouth, but in fact this thing is extremely delicious. The main eating area is Europe. According to legend, European kings also eat this The stuff is dead, but this is real high-end food." Sensing Jiang Hai's confusion, Edward Anderson couldn't help but explain to Jiang Hai.
"Is this supposed to be delicious?" Jiang Hai said in disbelief as he looked at this disgustingly long eel.
It was really hard for him to imagine that this toy should be extremely delicious? What a nonsense...
Not only is this thing ugly, but it also feeds on sucking blood. It looks like a pig intestine with teeth. It's really bluffing.
"You will know after I make it for you when I go back later." Edward Anderson couldn't help but smile when he heard Jiang Hai's words, and Jiang Hai also felt that he should try it. For this kind of thing, He still doesn't mind eating it.
At this time, the fishing net was loosened and countless fish fell on the deck. Tommy Charles and the others began to sort the fish.
Different fish have different prices, and naturally the test results are also different. Pula Walton took a knife and started to catch the fish, just like an old fisherman, he first opened the belly of the fish. , check whether there are parasites inside, then look at the stomach to see what is fed inside, and then take photos of the fish that have been cut open and send them to the experts.
At the same time, he called someone to come over and pick up the fish from Jiang Hai's fishing ground. After everything was done, everyone returned to the dock of the manor.
After returning to the manor, it was still very early. It was only around three o'clock in the afternoon. Edward Anderson made a special trip to Jiang Hai's place and cooked the fish first. In fact, it was said to be an eel, but it was not a fish. , and because it is parasitic, it can grow into any size.
This time, Jiang Hai harvested a total of six of these things in one net. The big ones were about half a meter long, and the small ones were only twenty centimeters long.
Edward Anderson's method is also very simple. First, chop off the head, then roast the big ones and stew the small ones.
In half an hour, these two dishes were ready. When Jiang Hai tasted it, how could he describe its taste? Stubborn doesn't like it very much.
He has eaten yellow fin before, and he still keeps it now. It tastes similar to yellow trout, but more fishy.
The meat is also very soft, plus there is a sweetness unique to the seafood here in Jiang Hai. It tastes good, if you don't look at its appearance.
While eating these things, the people called by Pula-Walton also came. They drove over in two pickup trucks. After randomly loading two pickup trucks with fish, they left. They would do some cooking on the fish. Test and test whether these fish are harmful, how nutritious they are, whether they have parasites, etc., and then price them. Of course, the yield of the fish is also one of the criteria to consider.
"Can you tell me now, how did I let these fish become famous?" Seeing the fish being taken away, Jiang Hai looked at Pula Walton and asked with some doubts. He really couldn't figure it out now. , he also thought about it just now, does Pula Walton mean to ignore Wall Street's forced price increase? But this is impossible. Why should people buy it?
Some people would say that he is willing to sell like this, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer. Isn't this good? Jiang Hai had read a lot of farming novels when he was in China. The protagonists in those novels started out growing radishes, cabbages, and the like.
After they are planted, they ignore the market price. A radish sells for hundreds of dollars, and then people rush to grab it.
It seemed quite refreshing at first, but later Jiang Hai knew that this was impossible, because it was also considered a violation of the laws of the market.
When selling some things in China, it will not work if the price is too high, and even less if the price is low. This is destroying the market balance and malicious competition.
Although there is no such statement in the United States, an American redfish costs ten dollars per kilogram. Why is it tripled in price to thirty dollars?
If it were Jiang Hai, he wouldn't buy it. Good quality alone is not enough. This is different from beef. Premium quality is commercial, and you can clearly feel the difference. And Jiang Hai's fish, Although it is healthier, more delicious and more nutritious.
But in the United States, fish farming is not popular here, so the fish are all wild. The gap between these wild fish and Jiang Hai's fish is actually not particularly big. At least Jiang Hai can't feel it. There is three times the difference. The price difference is so big, no one will buy it.
“Everything needs to be advertised, just like your cattle. If we hadn’t gone to the Beef Cattle Show in New York, we wouldn’t have seen it. The same goes for your fish, you have to go to the Fisheries Show. "Looking at Jiang Hai, Pula Walton said to him with a smile.
She was quite confident in Jiang Hai's fish, especially after tasting it in person. From a businessman's point of view, if she sold it for three times the price, she might have made some losses. Jiang Hai should not have raised it in the first place. These American redfish should instead be raised with more valuable fish.
If all fish were raised above grouper, Jiang Hai's income would be much higher now.
"No matter what it is, the brand is very important. If your cattle wins the gold medal at the National Beef Cattle Show, then we have more reasons to increase the price of your beef cattle. The same is true for fish. If you If you can win honors at the fishery exhibition, and the original taste of your fish, it is not an exaggeration to think that American redfish sells for thirty dollars per kilogram." Looking at Jiang Hai, Pula Walton She said with a serious face, and after hearing her words, Jiang Hai also thought about it carefully.
"Fisheries exhibition?" To be honest, Jiang Hai understood that if there is a beef cattle exhibition, there must be a fishery exhibition, but he did not pay attention to these before.
"WFE, the world's largest fishery exhibition, was established in 1973, but it is only held every six years. You won't be able to catch up this time. Companies that win awards at this exhibition will receive worldwide attention. This is inevitable. , but only one was completed last year, and there will be none this year... In addition, there are three major international fishery exhibitions." Looking at Jiang Hai, Pula Walton introduced him.
“The first and largest one is China’s International Fisheries Expo, which is Asia’s largest professional fishery trade exhibition and one of the three most influential fishery exhibitions in the world. It is a five-star expo rated by the U.S. Department of Commerce. However, You are a bit far away... The European Seafood Exhibition will be held in Brussels, the capital of Belgium, but I think you may have some understanding of the temper of Europeans. Many people in Europe are still living in the days when they were the world hegemons. In the world, so I guess I am just a candidate for the list." Looking at Jiang Hai, Pula Walton also introduced Jiang Hai to fishery exhibitions that he could attend, but unfortunately, he mentioned all three. Nothing happened without Jiang Hai.
"Sister, just tell me that I can go." After hearing so much nonsense, Jiang Hai couldn't bear it, so he said to Pula Walton. Hearing Jiang Hai's impatient words, Pula- Walton couldn't help but glance at him, this guy really had a lot of things going on.
"The last one you can go to is the Boston Fish Show!" Looking at Jiang Hai, Pula Walton said seriously.
"Boston Fishing Show? Is it in Boston?" Jiang Hai asked with some confusion when he heard the name of this fishing show.
"Of course, here in Boston, this fishery show was first held in 1981. It is one of the three major exhibitions in the world, and it is also the largest exhibition in North America. If your fish comes out on top here, then we will It's natural to raise prices, and it's best if you register a brand or company, so that it's easier to promote your fish and your beef." Looking at Jiang Hai, Pula Walton She said with a serious face, and after hearing her words, Jiang Hai also thought about it.
It was inevitable to attend the fishing show. After all, the fishing show was not far away from him, and he was quite confident in his fish.
As long as he goes there, it shouldn't be a problem for him to get a prize. He is still very confident about this, whether it is because he is from Boston, the face given by the host, or the quality of his fish, There won't be any problems.
But like Pula-Walton said, forming a company? Jiang Hai really hasn't thought about it because he is very lazy and afraid of trouble.
When Jiang Hai thought about the various troubles that would arise after setting up a company, Jiang Hai felt that his head was a little big.
"Forget it, let's not talk about other things. When is the fishery exhibition?" Shaking his head, Jiang Hai decided to study this first before talking about it. It would be better to ask about the time first. After the spring begins, his work here, but There are quite a few.
"The Boston Fish Show should be in mid-April. It just so happens that after you go to Texas to attend the Beef Cattle Show, you can attend the Fisheries Show when you come back." After thinking about it, Pula Walton was not too sure, although some From time to time, she would go to see if there were any good things that could be introduced into Sam's Club stores, but these things were basically reminded by her assistant or something.
She really couldn't remember the time clearly, and Jiang Hai could understand this. Time passed slowly while the two were having such discussions.
In the blink of an eye, at night, Qi Ya, Qi Jie, Azarina, Darlene and Marianne also came back. When they saw Pula Walton and Cheryl Lee in the villa, they They were all stunned for a moment, because they really didn't know that they would come.
"Really, don't say anything if there are guests at home, I'll prepare dinner." The first one to react was Qi Ya, who smiled and said to Jiang Hai, and then prepared to go to the kitchen to prepare dinner, but Pula- Walton also stood up at this time.
"Oh, we are all sisters, there is no need to be so polite, Cheryl, let's go help too!"
The moment Pula Walton finished speaking, the villa, which was originally not a very good atmosphere, fell silent for an instant... (To be continued.)
