160: Yang Qi is right

Less than half an hour later, Yang Qi drove his van to Chen Tianming's seafood business. Meeting him and offering cigarettes were basic courtesies.

Chen Tianming was already used to Yang Qi's large hauls. He smoked a cigarette and asked,

"Yang Qi, do you have any special high-quality goods this afternoon?"

It was clear that he was quite satisfied with the more than 30,000 yuan commission he earned from the eighteen-jin wild Large Yellow Croaker this morning.

"Hehehe, I really do!" Yang Qi replied.

Chen Tianming's eyes immediately brightened.

"Oh, what high-quality goods? Let me see!"

"A Large Yellow Croaker weighing about eight jin."

Yang Qi didn't immediately say the fish belonged to his Uncle, fearing Chen Tianming would try to lower the price.

"Quick, quick, take it out and let me see!"

Chen Tianming urged impatiently.

Yang Qi winked at his Uncle. Zheng Tie nodded, took the bag from Chen Lanxin's hand, and carefully pulled out the Large Yellow Croaker wrapped in cloth from the bag.

Chen Tianming led the group into a room, turned off the lights, and only used his phone for illumination. He carefully inspected the Large Yellow Croaker's skin and scales. As for whether it was wild, these professionals could tell at a glance.

This Large Yellow Croaker's skin and scales were also perfect, golden yellow in color, and the fish body had no damage.

"High-quality goods, absolutely high-quality goods! Uncle, don't worry, I will definitely give you a high price."

When Chen Tianming said this, he glanced at Yang Qi.

His expression seemed to say, 'You kid, you're not telling the truth, are you afraid I'll give your Uncle a low price? You really underestimate me!'

Yang Qi felt a slight awkwardness, but it was minimal. He rubbed his nose and remained silent.

Seeing Yang Qi didn't speak, Uncle had to say,

"Okay, then thank you, Boss Chen!"

"Oh, come on! You're being too polite. You're Yang Qi's biological Uncle, and I'm Yang Qi's brother. His Uncle is my Uncle, isn't he? From now on, just call me A Ming."

It has to be said that all these businessmen have a silver tongue.

Yang Qi rolled his eyes and didn't respond. Uncle knew he couldn't out-talk Chen Tianming, so he just smiled and remained silent.

Finally, Chen Tianming weighed the Large Yellow Croaker; it was 8.3 jin. He offered to buy it at 22,000 per jin.

After seeing Yang Qi's look, Uncle also agreed with an excited expression.

Chen Tianming had someone put the Large Yellow Croaker into the cold storage, and then the group went out to the main hall, where some workers in a corner were sorting and grading the fish they had brought in.

Bai Xue and Chen Lanxin watched nearby, also weighing and recording.

Overall, Yang Qi and Bai Xue's catch was of better quality and greater quantity than Zheng Tie and Chen Lanxin's.

After all, when Zheng Tie and Chen Lanxin first started, their minds weren't entirely focused on foraging.

Later, they discovered so many seafood items on the reef flat, which made them rein in their restless thoughts and start foraging seriously.

It was said that this Large Yellow Croaker was discovered by Chen Lanxin, and Uncle only caught it after going into the sea. It was still moving at the time, otherwise, its skin and scales wouldn't have been so good.

Yang Qi suddenly remembered that Zhang Jun had asked him to catch a few high-quality Chinese Spiny Lobsters, saying his old man wanted to keep them as pets.

So he took out his phone and called him. It was answered instantly, which meant he was quite idle.

"Hello, Brother Jun."

"Yang Qi! I just picked up my phone to call you. Hahahaha!"

Zhang Jun's voice came from the other end.

"Hehehe, Brother Jun, what do you need me for?"

Yang Qi also thought it was too much of a coincidence.

"You first. You've already called me first. You must have something to tell me."

Zhang Jun's laughter came from the other side.

"Hmm, it's like this, didn't you say last time that you wanted to get a few high-quality Spiny Lobsters for Uncle?" Yang Qi said,

"I got two this afternoon, much bigger and better than the ones at my house. If you want them, I'll give them to you. If not, I'll take them back and raise them myself."

"Yes! Why wouldn't I want them? Where are you now? I'll come get them."

Zhang Jun said hastily.

"I'm at A Ming's selling my foraging catch."

Yang Qi had just finished answering.

He realized Zhang Jun had already hung up, leaving him completely bewildered.

Less than 20 seconds later, Zhang Jun's hearty laughter came from the doorway. It turned out he was already almost at the door.

"Yang Qi, Bai Xue, oh, Uncle is here too!"

Zhang Jun quickly greeted everyone, even Chen Lanxin, whom he didn't know, but because she was standing with Zheng Tie and Bai Xue, he smiled and nodded.

Yang Qi also secretly admired him. Indeed, no one's success comes easily! From these small aspects of dealing with people, he had much to learn.

"Brother Jun," "A Jun," "Cousin."

Everyone responded.

"Come, come, let me see your Spiny Lobsters."

Yang Qi led Zhang Jun to the van to see the Spiny Lobsters. Chen Tianming definitely wanted to go and see; he didn't even know there were good things in the van.

In the transparent live fish tank, two Chinese Spiny Lobsters weighing over four jin each stood out prominently among a pile of one-jin lobsters. Their colors were even more vibrant and dazzling, beautifully iridescent.

Needless to say, Zhang Jun and Chen Tianming's eyes were glued to them, and even Yang Qi himself couldn't look away.

He felt a slight regret about giving them to Zhang Jun. Wouldn't it be better to keep and raise them himself?

Well! Words spoken are like water spilled. Now he could only hope Brother Jun wouldn't want them!

It was clear that he had overthought it.

"Good, good, good! They are indeed top-grade! So rare, thank you, brother. I'm sure the old man will love them very much!"

Zhang Jun quickly called Chen Tianming to tell someone to take out the two Spiny Lobsters.

Chen Tianming, meanwhile, kept staring at the group of large Black Fish, the other lobsters, and the Sea Cucumbers.

Finally, Yang Qi also scooped out more than ten Sea Cucumbers and five or six smaller lobsters for Zhang Jun.

Once the seafood inside was counted, the Sea Cucumbers and Spiny Lobsters in the live fish tank were also transferred inside.

"Yang Qi, how about I give you 50,000 yuan for each of these two large Chinese Spiny Lobsters?"

Zhang Jun said to Yang Qi while looking at the Spiny Lobsters temporarily kept in the business's large display cabinet.

"Brother Jun, stop messing around! What kind of thing is worth that much money? They're a gift to you."

Yang Qi was startled when he heard that.

"You don't know, such large specimens of Chinese Spiny Lobsters with such good appearance can be sold as pets, or ornamental fish species."

Zhang Jun explained,

"If they encounter certain enthusiasts, the price might be even higher."

Yang Qi waved his hand, interrupting Zhang Jun, and said,

"Stop, Brother Jun, I caught these while foraging. They look good, so I was planning to keep them as pets myself; I wasn't going to sell them for money."

"Didn't you say Uncle likes to raise them? As his nephew, if I give him a few pets to raise, should I still charge money? Are you not treating me as a brother anymore?"

"You..."

"Xiao Qi is right!"

Before Zhang Jun could speak again, a voice came from behind the two of them.
