MTL - A Day In a Japanese Fishing Village-Chapter 16 shock fishing port
"Bluefin tuna?"
"His!"
Almost instantly, those who heard it had different expressions, some were shocked, some were stunned, and some couldn't believe it. Some are envious, some are skeptical.
Among them, the trio of Ryo Matsumoto expressed doubts!
"How is it possible that Hideyoshi Minano caught bluefin tuna on his first trip out to sea? He was lucky too!" Ryo Matsumoto opened his mouth wide. He has been out fishing all year round, but he knows that bluefin tuna is so hard to come across. This species of fish is hard to come by.
Their Matsumoto fishing team was lucky enough to catch three the year before, but they didn't encounter them last year or this year. You can imagine how hard it is to come across this school of fish. Originally, among tuna, bluefin tuna is the rarest and the most expensive, because it grows slowly and has delicious meat, so the price is high.
"Brother, are you sure you have caught it? How many and how much?" At this time, the original small-scale purchasers couldn't help but talk, they asked and rushed to the boat to see what was going on.
Bluefin tuna, this fish is really in short supply. It is a high-luxury fish. Anyway, once it is in stock, it is not afraid of not being able to sell it, and it can also sell for a high price! This is one of the favorite seafood of those high society people.
Both local consumption and export are exceptionally sought-after.
"Go, go up and have a look!"
"Bluefin tuna, but the best among tuna, a rare existence."
The people on the pier all ran to join in the fun after hearing about it.
Even the three of Matsumoto Ryo ran up. When they all saw the ten huge and plump bluefin tuna in the refrigerator, the three of them were all ashen, and they felt that they had been beaten in the face. They looked down on Shuichi Minano just now, but now they have actually caught ten bluefin tuna. It is still so big, it is estimated that most of them are about 200 kilograms!
"Excuse me, what's your name, I'm Toda Zexi, a salesman of Wanhe Seafood Purchasing Company." The first person to rush up was the purchaser who had hesitated just now.
At this time, his attitude changed one hundred and eighty degrees, from being indifferent just now to now nodding and bowing, wishing to call Nanye Xiuyi a lord. Well, now there is a fish is the uncle.
"My name is Nanye Shuichi, hello." Nanye Xiu said.
"Nano-kun, the bluefin tuna you caught is really big, you are amazing!" Toda Zexi began to talk nicely and flatter him.
At this time, two other competitors came. A man named Fujiwara Taro, the manager of the Fujiwara Seafood Purchasing Company. One is Takahashi Taichi, the boss of Takahashi Seafood Purchasing Company!
The two of them introduced themselves as soon as they came up, saying that they wanted to buy Shuichi Minamino's tuna.
"Minano-kun, how about I buy your bluefin tuna for 120 yen per kilogram?" Taichi Takahashi asked.
"Hmph, Taichi Takahashi, you are obviously cheating Nanye-kun. This is the price of juvenile bluefin tuna. Look at these bluefin tuna caught by Nanye-kun. They are all adult fish. Most of them are about 200 kilograms. . I will buy 160 yen per kilogram! Nanye-kun, sell it to me." At this time, another competitor, Fujiwara Taro, immediately dismantled.
When you see this, you will think that the price is too low, but it is not. The first one is that the purchasing power of the Japanese yen is still acceptable. Of course, with the current monetary inflation, purchasing power is declining every month. But the current salary of an ordinary worker is only 60 to 70 yen a month. Now 160 yen per kilo is not bad. For example, a 200kg bluefin tuna can be sold for 32,000 yen.
32,000 yen is a lot of money. For example, an ordinary worker's monthly salary is 70 yen, then his annual salary is 840 yen. The total price of this fish is more than his salary for 38 years.
But Shuichi Minano, who is familiar with historical trends, knows that the current currency of the island country changes every month, and the purchasing power is constantly declining. He intends to not choose to save the money in the bank after making money, but to invest it. Build your own fishing team.
Depositing money in the bank during this time period is the most stupid behavior.
Minano Shuichi believes that within ten years, the purchasing power of 100 yen will drop to a terrifying level.
Minano vaguely remembers that in the 1960s and 1970s, a manga magazine was 150 yen, and a model was 2200 yuan.
But in 1950, 100 yen was the living expenses of an ordinary family for two months.
"Humph." Takahashi Taichi saw his colleagues demolish the stage, his face turned cold and he remained silent.
"Nano-kun, I will also pay 160 yen for a kilogram to buy, sell me a few pieces." Toda Ze Nishi Road. The three of them are currently small purchasers. Of course, they do not have the ability to eat ten bluefin tuna in one go. At this time, they are very lucky that the three large purchasers did not come. Otherwise, they probably wouldn't be able to grab these goodies. Goods.
They didn't expect Minano Shuichi to catch tuna, which surprised them too much.
Minano Shuichi knows that bluefin tuna will be sold as soon as possible, but he currently does not know much about the price of bluefin tuna. Right now, I'm just listening to what the other side has to say.
So Minano Xiu set his eyes on the old man Kimura.
He knew that Kimura old man's home was in the fishing port, so he might have some understanding of this aspect.
"Boss, the price of 160 yen they gave is quite acceptable, not too low but not too high." Kimura leaned to Minano Shuichi's ear and said softly.
"Yeah, I see." Nanye Xiu nodded.
"Well, I will notify all the buyers of Nemuro Fishing Port, please come and see my bluefin tuna. I will sell it to whoever offers the right price." Minano Shuichi quickly made up his mind.
"Little fox!" When the three purchasers heard Minano Shuichi's words, their faces were not very good. It looks a bit like holding an auction. As a result, the price will definitely be raised. But there is no way, who said that this bluefin tuna is not only big, but also a hot commodity!
Such a large bluefin tuna is not often encountered. Although the Nemuro fishing port has a fishing team to catch bluefin tuna every year. But the ones that can be captured with Minano Shuichi this time are very few big ones.
Soon, the news that Shuichi Minano, a young man, caught ten adult bluefin tuna on his first trip to the sea spread throughout the Nemuro fishing port! This time, Minano Shuichi was a blockbuster. Of course, no one paid attention to the hundred thousand herring he caught. The fish that the poor man ate was really unnoticed.
