Chapter 498: The Shock of Selling Fish (3/10)

He fetched this huge bluefin tuna out of the water with ease, and then continued as before.

Knock the mask with a stick, then set the tail, bleed, chill, everything is so orderly.

The only difference is that this fish is actually larger than the yellow fin that Jiang Hai caught just now.

The length is still two meters, and it can be hung a little higher than Jiang Hai, but the weight has reached 200 kilograms.

But it is an out-and-out big fish. According to Miss Kevin, this fish must be sold for at least 30,000 US dollars.

If it were sent directly to the island country, it would probably cost more than 50,000 yuan, but here, 30,000 yuan would be enough.

Jiang Hai would not go to the island country to sell fish just because of twenty thousand dollars. The gain would not be worth the loss.

However, it turns out that bluefins are indeed very rare. After Jiang Hai caught a huge bluefin tuna, he really never caught another bluefin. He didn't even see the fish cubs that were more than one meter long.

Although his beef is still so popular, his third fish is another yellow fin, and it is not small.

The fourth fish is a shark, a bull shark, but unfortunately, in the Caribbean, this fish is considered a protected species, and it is not allowed to be eaten if caught. Therefore, Jiang Hai decided to save the fish's life instead of building a seven-level pagoda. Just let the fish go.

The fifth fish he caught was an Atlantic swordfish, more than two meters long, which is not easy to see here.

Jiang Hai still remembered that he once caught one of these things and sold it alive for 100,000 US dollars.

But unfortunately, there were fishing boats at that time, but Jiang Hai only has yachts now, so there is no way to feed the fish.

It can only be killed and bled like tuna, and then chilled. But no matter what, this can be considered a success.

After catching the fifth fish, Jiang Hai set the hook again. Because the warehouse he prepared was already full.

Then they had lunch on the sea. A very Caribbean-style lunch.

Because it was Kevin and the others who were cooking, according to their words, they could be taken out to play. The most important thing was that Jiang Hai said that all the fish they caught belonged to them, which made them very excited, so they took the initiative to kill them. A few barracudas and a Caribbean style lunch. In fact, it's still the same, it's just done briefly.

However, this was Jiang Hai's first time eating barracuda meat, and he had to admit that it tasted pretty good.

The meat of this kind of fish is somewhat like the garlic clove meat often mentioned in China, but it is shaped into strips.

It tasted good, and the most important thing was that it was very tender. After lunch, Jiang Hai and the others basked in the sun on the plate armor for a while, and chatted with each other for a while. We were ready to return. It took about three hours to drive slowly from here to the dock where Jiang Hai departed. It's indeed early, but don't forget that they have to sell fish first, and the place to sell fish is on another pier.

Under the guidance of little girl Kevin, Jiang Hai drove the boat towards the dock on the other side.

After driving for about two hours, they saw this coastal pier. Compared with the pier in the small town where Jiang Hai docked, it was much larger here. Not only are there many high-rise buildings, but the greening is also pretty good. There are not only many large fishing boats over there at the pier. There are also some small yachts, but compared with Jiang Hai's yachts, those are far behind.

"This is Aguadilla, the largest city here and a good place for tourism." Looking at the huge dock in front of him, Kevin introduced to Jiang Hai and the others. Hearing the envy in her words, Jiang Hai also Smiled a little.

Now that she is still young, sometimes the more prosperous the place, the better. At least Jiang Hai thinks so.

As Jiang Hai's ship sailed into the port, many fishermen on the fishing boats here took a curious look.

But compared to the surprise in the town where Jiang Hai stopped, the people here were much more indifferent.

Although the economy in Puerto Rico is not good, although fresh water resources are scarce, and although the people here are not very rich.

But here is the best choice for people who like to travel but don’t have much money. They like to immigrate but don’t have much money. In many big cities in Puerto Rico, there are some people with a net worth of around one million. Where the little rich people live.

One million is indeed considered money in the United States, but let alone privilege, there is no such thing at all. At most, you can be regarded as a white-collar worker with a better life, and that's it. But one million is completely different in Puerto Rico.

They hold American citizenship and buy houses and land here. The local government does not dare to cause trouble for them, and their one million is a huge wealth in the local area. The spending here is **** and the quality is very good. Yes, it only cost twenty or thirty US dollars at a time, and it would not exceed one hundred US dollars a night. Of course, this was the information Bell found out last night, but Jiang Hai didn't care.

Low-priced items, good familiarity, and a feeling of superiority. It is precisely because of these that many Americans are willing to come here to play. Aguadilla is also a tourist destination, and naturally there are many foreigners here. people.

After Jiang Hai and others sailed into the dock, they did not dock directly there, but sailed directly to the fishing company.

This was the first time Jiang Hai had arrived at the fishing company, but Jiang Hai was a little surprised by the looks from the people here.

Because generally speaking, if a boat enters a fishing company, it must be fishing, and it is competing with the fishermen here, but the people here don't seem to care.

In fact, it is understandable if you think about it. There are plenty of fish in the sea, but Jiang Hai drives a yacht. If he is asked to hunt, how many can he hunt?

But when they see the fish on Jiang Hai's boat, many people will probably regret it.

It was Jiang Hai's first time here, but Kevin was a local leader here. He took Jiang Hai directly to the front of a Spanish fishing company. Jiang Hai didn't know what it was called, but Kevin said that this is the only fishery company in the area. The company bid the highest.

In the Caribbean, everything is lacking except for fishing companies. After all, this is what life depends on here.

When Jiang Hai's ship docked next to the fishing company, some of the ships near them stopped what they were doing and looked at Jiang Hai with a joking look on their faces. They thought Jiang Hai had stopped by the wrong side. You can see Rich people eat turtles, which is a very happy thing.

However, when the fishing company's hook pulled out a large yellow fin golden gun from Jiang Hai's ship's warehouse, these people were no longer calm, and gasps and discussions could be heard from everywhere.

Looking at their looks, Jiang Hai smiled. He just liked to see these people's surprised looks, how interesting it was!

"Wow, the fish is not bad, the quality is A-grade. I'll give you six dollars per kilogram. What do you think?" Looking at the scale in front of him, a person in charge of counting asked Jiang Hai and the others.

Jiang Hai had inquired before coming here. In the United States, a grade-A quality yellow fin gun costs about $4.00 per pound. One kilogram is definitely more than two pounds, which is the price of $8.00. However, it is only worth it here. Six US dollars.

Glancing at Kevin, this fish belonged to her. After hearing what this person said, Kevin also made a mental calculation.

The total weight of her fish was 130 kilograms. At six dollars per pound, that would be seven hundred and eighty dollars. Although it was slightly lower than the thousands of dollars she had in mind, it was still okay, so she ordered nodded.

"That's it!" After hearing Jiang Hai's words, the people here weighed the weight again, a total of 138 kilograms.

Just as the people here were preparing to count, a fat old man came out and said to Jiang Hai with a smile: "Let's just say it's one hundred and forty kilograms. I saw there are fish in your boat, young man. , sell you a favor."

Listening to the old man's words, Jiang Hai and the others were stunned for a moment, but it didn't matter, after all, they had made more money.

"Hello, are you Americans?" When Kevin went to count the money, the old man came over and asked Jiang Hai and the others with a smile. Jiang Hai and the others also nodded, listening to the old man's accent. , should also be American.

"Oh, there are quite a few Americans here now, and that's right. After all, it's tuna season. Haha, let me see what other good things you got." The old man heard Jiang Hai's words and said with a smile. When he got up, Kevin had already come back with an envelope. Needless to say, he knew that the envelope must contain cash.

Now that Puerto Rico is bankrupt, so are their banks. Except for the branch of Citibank here, all other banks have closed down. And for Citi, after all, Puerto Ricans who are not Americans yet are not too trust.

Compared with banks, they trust the cash in their hands more, not to mention that they can avoid taxes by taking the money directly.

"Did you get the money?" Seeing Kevin and the others looking happy, Jiang Hai also asked them.

"Yeah!" Hearing Jiang Hai's words, Kevin smiled and stuffed the money into the front of his jeans and placed it carefully. It was obvious that this girl was very concerned about the money.

"Old sir, come and take a look at my other fish." Seeing Kevin staying nearby, Jiang Hai also smiled and gestured to Bell and the others on the boat to continue selling fish, and the second one came down. Heaven is the tuna caught by Jiang Hai.

Seeing Jiang Hai's larger yellow fin, the fishermen nearby became louder, but the old man's eyes were shining with gold.

Sure enough, Jiang Hai's fish was larger, weighing 189 kilograms. Counting 190 kilograms, it was still six dollars per kilogram.

More than a thousand dollars is not a small amount, but when the third item comes down, these people will be even more confused.

When the fourth Atlantic sailfish appeared, some people's eyes turned red when they looked at Jiang Hai. But on the fifth day, when Jiang Hai's blue fin came down, the entire fishing company was quiet for a while, and everyone was stunned. Looking at Jiang Hai and the others, their eyes were keen.
