Golden Fishery

Queen Nalibe Harbor was one of the first small ports to be blocked by the Ministry of Fisheries, where commercial cod fishing has not been allowed since a decade ago.

But cod is the pillar industry of this port. The decline of this industry led to the collapse of the port economy: first, the fishing industry shrank, and then various fish processing factories closed. Later, many people moved away, and the shops closed one after another. , until last year the only school here also closed.

When talking about this, the bald boss felt a little depressed. He said: "Look, the houses here are scattered and look bad, right? No, it wasn't like that before. These open spaces used to be filled with As for the houses, our houses were planned and constructed according to the streets, but unfortunately, the neighbors immediately dragged the houses away."

Qin Shiou walked on the road silently. This small fishing ground had many similarities with the farewell town a year and a half ago, with an economy on the verge of collapse, an aging population, and confused fishermen.

However, the environment in places like Canada is very good. There are many colorful wild flowers on both sides of the road, as well as some berries such as blackberries and blueberries.

There are few cars and the pollution is very light. Qin Shiou can eat the berries directly after picking them.

Seeing him eating these wild fruits directly, Buck, who lost the most money yesterday, said disdainfully, "You bumpkin."

Qin Shiou smiled with a good temper. He was not feeling well now, and he was as lazy as this guy, so he said, "I won two million."

Buck's eyes turned red immediately.

Walking on the road, occasionally they could meet a few old fishermen in water jackets. The bald boss greeted these people. These people nodded friendly to Qin Shiou and his party, and then went home slowly.

In this fishing village, there are only old people and children staying here. Young people with knowledge, culture and ability go to big cities to develop for the future. Those without knowledge and culture either work for the fish farm or work hard to make more money. Offshore oil drilling - well platform - platform work.

"There are six children in total. After they leave, our fishing village will really say goodbye to history." The bald boss smiled wryly.

When passing by a simple dry goods store on the road, the gray-haired proprietress looked at them and greeted them warmly: "Gentlemen, do you want dried fish, fish fillets, dried shrimps? They are all natural and handmade. They taste good and are clean." , don’t you want to buy some?”

This group of people has no shortage of seafood, and they don't know who to sell the things in their fishing grounds, so they naturally shake their heads.

Qin Shiou looked at the proprietress's rough skin and bent back, and shook his head. Then, when the group returned to the small hotel for free activities, he came back to the proprietress' dry goods stall.

Seeing him coming, the proprietress hurriedly greeted him. A black Newfoundland dog ran over to look at him, sniffing him curiously. The proprietress called out "Battleship", and the little black dog jumped and ran away.

These dried fish are indeed artificially sun-dried, and the snow-white cod meat is a little yellowish. This is because the oil in the fish meat is secreted, and the taste is better.

Generally, the yellow fish meat on the market is dyed yellow with food coloring, because it takes time and effort to make it look like this, not to mention that it needs to be cleaned constantly, so it is difficult to industrialize large-scale production.

Qin Shiou ate a few dried shrimps and scallops. The umami taste was sweet and salty, and the quality was good.

He asked about the price, and the proprietress gave him a low price. The dried cod was only 14 yuan per catty, the dried shrimp was 42 yuan per catty, and the scallops were 70 yuan per catty. Other dried goods also offered low prices.

Qin Shiou wanted them all, and he left the address for the proprietress and asked her to send them directly by express.

"I want all of them?" The proprietress asked in surprise, she has accumulated a lot of dry goods here.

Qin Shiou nodded. After weighing and calculating, there are more than 400 catties of dried cod, more than 90 catties of dried shrimp, and more than 50 catties of dried scallops. In addition, there are some dried fish roe, dried sea cucumber, grilled fish bones, etc.

The proprietress did the math and the total was more than 16,000 yuan.

In addition to the freight, Qin Shiou gave 18,000 to the proprietress, and the proprietress said that they would pay for the freight, Qin Shiou smiled and said that it is better to forget it, he should pay it.

The freight for these things is not cheap, at least a thousand yuan, which is just a few meals for Qin Shiou, and it may be a month or two of living expenses for the proprietress's family.

After buying these things, Qin Shiou took photos and sent them to Butler. He called and said, "I received some good dry goods in a small fishing village. It is estimated that I will be able to arrive at St. Johns in two days. I will come to pick up fish next time." When you get it, you can take it to Miami together, and it’s no problem to sell it for a high price.”

Butler has professional ethics. He said awkwardly: "Is this kind of behavior bad? The sign I made is based on your fishery, telling all customers that our seafood is raised in specific sea areas."

Qin Shiou said with a smile: "It's not easy? Our brand can't always be the catch of our own fishing ground, right? There are too few varieties, it definitely won't work! So the brand should be divided into two categories, one is my output, and the other is There is a category that has passed our certification!"

Hearing what Qin Shiou said, Butler laughed and said that you are a born businessman.

Qin Shiou hung up the phone and smiled wryly. Don't any natural businessmen, such as Tmall in China and Amazon in foreign countries, have self-operated and consignment channels? He just changed the product.

He has checked the quality of this batch of dry goods. Even if his fishing grounds come to dry them, they may not meet this standard, because they don't have so much energy and patience, so as long as they find a suitable channel to sell, they will definitely make money.

I stayed in the hotel for lunch. Before eating, the boss suddenly found Qin Shiou and said, "Young man, you bought the things from Oli's house?"

Qin Shiou guessed that he was talking about those dry goods, so he nodded and asked what's wrong.

The bald boss laughed, patted him on the shoulder and said gratefully: "Thank you, I heard that you gave Ollie a very good price, I haven't seen such a kind guy like you for a long time, I will entertain you at noon Eat toad crabs."

Others then understood what the bald boss said, and Buck looked at Qin Shiou with disdain again, and said, "Hypocrisy!"

Qin Shiou smiled happily: "I spent 18,000 yuan, and there are 1,982,000 yuan left. I like to bet."

Not only Buck, but even Charco's eyes were red, and he shouted: "You were lucky yesterday, so bet again, dare you?"

"Tell me, what are you betting on?" Qin Shiou said with a relaxed smile.

"Texas Hold'em!"

"Don't gamble! Playing cards and gambling money is a bad boy!"

"Stud!"

"No brains? It's said that those who play cards and gamble are bad kids!"

"Horse betting!"

"Bet on your spicy next door!"

"what?"

"You don't want to gamble, think about it for yourself, come to me after you come up with something I'm interested in, now I'm going to catch toad crabs with the boss." Qin Shiou waved his hand, thinking that teasing these little funny Bs is not interesting, so he learned The master left with his hands behind his back as if he was as lonely as snow in his life.
