Chapter 5 The Village Response
Yanlong Village is so big, if a family loses a chicken, it will spread throughout the village the next day.
The news that Xiang Yang's family sold ten catties of sea cucumbers for 50,000 yuan spread like wildfire, spreading throughout the village, and even spreading to neighboring villages.
It would be a lie for the villagers to say that they are not envious. In the eyes of the villagers, this kind of gift from the ocean is nothing but money.
While envious, the villagers also admired Xiang Yang.
It's not like I haven't caught sea cucumbers before. I sold them for more than 300 yuan a catty when they were sold in the town for recycling. Damn, those people outside are so disgusting, and the water is so deep. A fisherman said angrily.
The villagers who said that Xiang Yang's reading so many books were useless also immediately changed their words, The village chief is wise. Back then, the elders of the mobilized clan asked the whole village to contribute money and effort to send that boy of Xiang's family to go to college. At that time, many people complained that the village chief was blind. Come on, let me tell you, it’s different for those who have studied. If we have good goods, we can only be slaughtered by others. If they have good goods, they can sell them at a good price. Why? Because they have studied in university and are outside If you know people, you have connections.
A villager came up with an idea: You said, if we catch good goods in the future, can we also ask that kid from the Xiang family to help? Ask him to ask the big boss outside to collect it?
I see it will work.
Put it down, why should someone who is not relatives or friends help you?
You can't say that. Old Xiang's family has always been very talkative. Back then, the Xiang family's boy went to school with the tuition fee that we all pooled together. Wouldn't he not help with such a trivial matter?
Hard to say.
I think you have to talk to the village head about this matter.
Xiang Yang has no idea that he has become a famous figure in the village, and is currently immersed in comparing the parameters of various diving equipment on his mobile phone.
Although I picked up a treasure on the bottom of the sea this time and got a huge sum of money, Xiang's mother still did not change her plan to let Xiang Yang go out to work. After all, relying on the sea to eat the sea is like relying on the sky to eat. It is too unstable, and Xiang's mother is even more worried. What is Xiang Yang's future.
The way Xiang Yang came up with was to cook the uncooked rice into mature rice. When the time came, he would buy a set of diving equipment costing thousands of dollars, and Xiang Yang said he wanted to stay in his hometown and develop by the sea, but he didn't believe Xiang's mother would not let him.
The most important thing is that Xiang Yang also has to buy a set of diving equipment to hide his eyes and ears. Diving suits are very cheap, costing tens of dollars a suit. The most expensive thing is the oxygen cylinder. The cheap one only costs 600 yuan, but you can only breathe underwater for 20 minutes. The expensive one is a bit outrageous.
Although Xiang Yang bought diving equipment just to deceive others, he didn't think about picking the cheapest one, because Xiang's father is also a fisherman, and maybe one day he will wear it to the bottom of the sea for a walk on a whim.
After comparing the various parameters, Xiang Yang ordered a set of SMACO professional diving equipment, an oxygen tank, a diving suit, and an oxygen compressor. The total cost was more than 4,000 yuan, and he could breathe on the seabed for four hours with full oxygen.
Old Xiang, are you home? Just after placing the order, Xiang Yang heard a shout from outside the door.
Uncle Village Chief, Fatty Zuo, why are you here? Father Xiang and Mother Xiang were not at home, so Xiang Yang welcomed them into the house and made two cups of tea with a smile, The tea is ordinary tea grown by myself. Have a cup of tea, my parents should be back soon after going to the town. Subconsciously, Xiang Yang thought that the village head came to find his father.
We are actually here to look for you. The village head is a middle-aged fat man, he took a few sips from the teacup and took a sip, then looked at Xiang Yang with a smile, Yes, I heard about you, can you Sea cucumbers worth 300 yuan a catty sell for 5,000 a catty, which is promising, and the university is not in vain.
Xiang Yanggang wanted to say a few words of humility.
Fatty Zuo rubbed his hands, and rushed to say: Brother Yang, it's like this, I went there yesterday and you said that you caught some sea cucumbers, which are not as big as yours, but after processing, they add up to a hundred sea cucumbers. Two catties, do you think you can help me to contact the big boss you know to buy it?
After finishing speaking, Fatty Zuo looked at Xiang Yang eagerly.
The village chief sighed, and said in a chime: Xiang Yang, you have seen the big world after studying in university. Uncle knows that you have connections outside, and the villagers in the village are in trouble. Now that you have the ability, you can help if you can.
The village head's tone was very soft, and he praised Xiang Yang very highly in his words. In fact, in recent years, he has watched the villagers give up their ancestral business one by one to go out to make a living. The village head really wants to bring some benefits to the village.
Xiang Yang's heart was moved. Although fishing is getting harder and harder now, there are not few fishermen in the village, and the villagers have no sales channels. If you can collect the catches in the village in a unified way, maybe you can make some money.
I do have some sales channels, and the price is much higher than the prices offered by the buyers in the town. I can buy the seafood in the village uniformly, but I declare in advance that I can't do this for nothing, and I must get it from it. A little profit. Xiang Yang thought for a while before opening his mouth carefully, and explained at the beginning that he would make some profits from it, so as not to be a bad person when the villagers meet in the future.
The village chief was overjoyed when he heard this, Of course, the door provided by you kid, as long as the price can be higher than that of the town, so you can earn a little hard work, it should be. In the future, anyone in the village who dares to chew their tongues will be the first! No promise.
Xiang Yang smiled and didn't say anything, Xiang Yang could still hear the village chief's implication, meaning that they are all fellow villagers, don't make too much money, you kid, but Xiang Yang never thought of making too much money. Ruthless, the people in the village, apart from being straight-tempered and sometimes talking harshly, are very united most of the time. Even if the village chief doesn't say Xiang Yang, he is embarrassed to make too much money, anyway, he doesn't rely on this to make money.
Of course, there is still a big difference between not relying on this to make money and not making this money. If Xiang Yang helped this with the slogan of not making profit from the beginning, I am afraid that there will be more troubles in the future. As soon as the villagers gave him a hand, Xiang Yang felt very good.
The village head uncle got Xiang Yang's guarantee and patted Fatty Zuo on the shoulder and left contentedly. He had to go door to door to tell everyone the good news.
But Fatty Zuo refused to leave, and continued to sneer: Brother Yang, will you take my sea cucumbers for me?
Xiang Yang smiled, Okay, you go home and bring your sea cucumbers. By the way, I'll ask them about the price. You also know that the price of seafood has a lot to do with their size. I can guarantee that your sea cucumbers are cheaper than the prices bought in the town. It’s high, but it’s definitely less than 5,000 yuan a catty.”
Okay, thank you Brother Yang, Brother Yang, wait for me, I'll come right away. Hearing the first half of Xiang Yang's words, Fatty Zuo was overjoyed, and ran towards the door like the wind. That paragraph was automatically filtered by Zuo Fatty. That thing can be charged 300 yuan a catty in the town, which is more expensive than the town, and it is a good thing that it is more expensive!
Xiang Yang didn't care about Fatty Zuo's turmoil, so he took advantage of this moment to call Li Chao and ask about the price.
Hello? It's Brother Xiang! Is there a good product again? Li Chao was a little surprised and a little excited when he received the phone call from Xiang Yang. What's more, the benefits of getting these high-end ingredients to his hotel for a little hype are far more than what they appear on the surface. In the environment of scarce fishery resources, whoever can get more high-end ingredients will be a gold-lettered signboard.
