Chapter 4: Catching the Sea at Night
"Yes, I caught it myself, and I just caught it." Li Xuan answered the barrage in the live broadcast room, but a flash of disappointment flashed in his eyes. The people who spoke were all accounts with several levels or more, and his fans
None of the big brothers in the group with accounts at level 40 or 50 are here.
"Some time ago, I bought a Dungeness crab that was bigger than this. The price was 180 yuan per pound. I heard that tiger crabs have a fishy smell and don't taste very good. They should be cheaper than Dungeness crabs.
Right?" someone typed in the live broadcast room.
Just as Li Xuan was about to speak, another person typed: "It seems like you don't know how to eat seafood. Can the fishy smell of seafood be called fishy? It's fresh."
"The person upstairs is biased. It says that the price of tiger head crab is still much cheaper than that of Dungeness crab, but that is based on the premise of the same grade. Dungeness crabs that are bigger than this will definitely cost 180 yuan per pound.
It's farmed. I've bought farmed female Dungeness crabs weighing five or six kilograms for only 300 yuan per kilogram, while wild ones weighing only two kilograms cost several thousand yuan. You can tell by looking at this tiger head crab.
It's wild, and the price must be more than one hundred and eighty pounds."
Li Xuan looked at the barrage with a smile, "Actually, the brother upstairs is right. Tiger head crab does have a fishy smell. People didn't like to eat it in the past. It's only in the past ten years that people have gradually accepted it.
The taste and price are gradually rising.”
Li Xuan chatted with the people in the live broadcast room one by one, and some people also gave rewards during the period. In this short time, he received a gift of no less than two yuan.
But not many people asked about the price, and not a single one said they wanted to buy it.
Li Xuan is not in a hurry. The price of spotted tiger head crab is not very high, and such a large spotted tiger head crab is indeed a good product. There is no shortage of rich people in his live broadcast room, and there will always be someone to buy it.
At this time, a banner floated in the live broadcast room, welcoming the fire dragon into the live broadcast room.
On Li Xuan's live broadcast platform, the account level is linked to the amount of money spent. Only accounts with level 25 or above will have banners flying when they enter the live broadcast room.
However, this is not the point. The point is that Fire Dragon's account level is as high as level 47, which means that the other party has at least made hundreds of thousands of gifts just on this live broadcast platform.
Li Xuan said with a smile: "Welcome, Boss Fire Dragon."
This is not the first time that this fire dragon has entered Li Xuan's live broadcast room. He also gave Li Xuan gifts before. The two still have contact information, but they have never communicated through private messages.
Fire Dragon typed: "Hey, wild spotted tiger head crabs are quite big. How many of this quality do you have?"
Li Xuanhan said: "This is the only one I caught by chance."
Li Xuan waited for a long time, but there was no reply from the fire dragon over there. Li Xuan had no choice but to send him a private message: "Boss Fire Dragon, are you still there?"
"Is something wrong?" Huolong replied via private message.
Li Xuan typed: "Boss Fire Dragon, this tiger head crab weighs three kilograms. I just caught it from the sea. The meat is absolutely delicious..."
At the other end of the network cable, in a high-end hotel in Star City, Chen Tianzi was watching the various seafood sales groups and live streaming rooms as usual, wondering if he could get some good stuff.
Looking at the various groups and live broadcast rooms, the only thing that interested him was a wild tiger crab weighing three kilograms. The seafood in the other groups and live broadcast rooms were either farmed or too small.
Or it's too common.
But I was only slightly interested.
After he asked the anchor and learned that Li Xuan only had one, he immediately lost interest. He worked in a hotel and needed to consume a large amount of food. He could not buy it for his own consumption. The food in the hotel weighed three kilograms.
Tiger head crabs abound.
Unexpectedly, Li Xuan actually sent him a private message.
Today's high-end seafood products on the market are in short supply and supply is tight, leaving many hotels with no way to get them.
Although Li Xuan only has one large tiger head crab in his hand, he can be considered someone who has the ability to obtain high-end seafood, although the output obtained is very small.
After seeing the private message sent by Li Xuan, Chen Tianzi, who was also idle, typed and asked, "How much is it?" with the mentality of forming a good relationship.
Li Xuan hesitated for a while, then gave a price that was a compromise between the wholesale price and the purchase price, and typed: "Eight hundred."
Chen Tianzi said directly: "Okay, I bought it. Let's hang it on a small yellow car. If you encounter high-end overseas goods in the future, you can tell me privately."
Mother Li was watching from the side until Li Xuan finished the broadcast. She was surprised and said: "People on the Internet are so easy to talk to? You offer eight hundred, and the fire dragon boss doesn't even have a counter-offer?"
Li Xuan smiled and said nothing. In fact, the price he sold was very low. It was only a little higher than the purchase price and lower than the wholesale price. If he was not sure that he would be able to get a steady stream of high-end catches in the future, he would
There was no other sales channel. In order to catch up with the sales channel of Huolong, he would not offer such a low price, and the last words of Huolong were Li Xuan's biggest gain from this transaction.
"Since they have already paid, then send it to them as soon as possible to avoid death in their own hands." Mother Li could not see that Li Xuan was so far-sighted. She was a practical person. When she saw that Huolong had already placed an order, she urged Li Xuan
Hurry up and deliver it to someone.
Li Xuan smiled and nodded, tied the tiger crab tightly with a rubber band, then got on a women's motorcycle and rushed towards the express station.
The express station can only be found in Longmen Town. As soon as Li Xuan arrived in the town, he met Li's father who was sitting on his motorcycle waiting for customers.
"Xiao Xuan? Why did you come to town?" Father Li was very surprised when he saw Li Xuan.
Li Xuan took out the tiger crab from the trunk of the motorcycle and waved it, smiling: "I caught a crab at the beach and sold it online. I am planning to send it to others."
Father Li's eyes lit up when he saw the crab, and then he asked with concern: "Such a big tiger crab can fetch at least five or six hundred yuan in Longmen Town. You didn't lose money selling it online, did you?"
"Don't worry, I sold it online for 800 yuan." Li Xuan said with a smile.
When Father Li heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "Okay, as long as you don't sell at a loss."
For Li's father, this kind of gift from the ocean is just like picking up money. One crab is worth his weekly income.
It was getting late to send out the goods, and there were not many pedestrians on the roads in the town. Father Li estimated that there would be no more customers today, so the father and son went to the butcher shop and weighed half a catty of pork belly and one catty of pork liver.
Driving home on a motorcycle.
After dinner, Li Xuan excused himself to go out to eat.
Father Li raised his head and glanced at Li Xuan, "Are you going to the beach? It's night, and the beach is dark. Pay attention to your safety."
Mother Li said: "Come back soon."
