My fishing raft will ask for help.

Chapter 157 Inviting Customers to Play on the Fish Raft

"Uncle, is this one okay?" Zhou Miao scooped out the largest one from the box.

"Yes, yes, this one is big enough."

"One pound is 2.2 yuan, that's 66 yuan, I'll give you 60 yuan."

As always, Zhou Miao would give more discounts to people he liked.

Moreover, the National Day holiday is over, and people's spending power has decreased, so he doesn't need to keep prices so tightly controlled as he did a few days ago.

"OK!"

The price was reduced by five yuan per pound, and then another six yuan was rounded down. The old man had no objections and readily paid with his phone.

Seeing so many discounts, people nearby rushed to buy, and Zhou Miao's stall suddenly became lively.

After selling one box of fish, he unloaded a second box from the truck.

Given the morning foot traffic at the seafood market, Zhou Miao's 100-plus kilograms of fish sold out in no time.

As long as he comes here to sell fish regularly and it becomes a habit, he can accumulate a group of regular customers like some fish-selling internet celebrities.

"Hey bro, what brings you here selling fish today?"

Just as they finished selling the fish and were about to pack up and leave, a voice that sounded somewhat familiar to Zhou Miao rang out.

He looked up and saw that it was indeed an acquaintance.

"Isn't it because the seafood market has a lot of foot traffic and sells fish quickly? I'll probably come here from time to time in the future, and I probably won't go to the vegetable market in Nanzhen much anymore."

More than 100 kilograms of flounder sold out here in less than two hours. In the Nanzhen vegetable market, it might not have been sold out in a whole morning.

This is not just a difference in foot traffic, but also in spending power.

Wages are high in the city center, but so is the cost of living. Fish that costs 50 or 60 yuan per kilogram isn't considered expensive here.

But Nanzhen is different. As long as it's not a holiday, the seafood that customers there buy in their daily lives is basically only 10 or 20 yuan per catty.

"I was wondering why I hadn't seen you selling fish in so long. Turns out you've moved. What are you selling today? Let me see." Qin Han suddenly realized, and then leaned closer to take a look at the items.

Zhou Miao said helplessly, "Unfortunately, brother, I've just sold out of everything."

"That's really unfortunate..."

"We have halibut and blue crabs available these days; I can get you some if you need them. If it's inconvenient for you, I can deliver them to your door when I get back."

Having a car, Zhou Miao didn't mind making things convenient for his regular customers.

Qin Han's eyes lit up: "Oh, that's great! Then tomorrow, could you prepare five catties of halibut and five catties of blue crab for me?"

"I happened to go out with my family during the National Day holiday. When I came back, I heard that wild blue crabs were being sold at the fish farm, but when I went there, I didn't see a single person."

Zhou Miao's expression turned strange upon hearing this: "Uh, that's really unfortunate, I happen to be selling blue crabs too."

Qin Han: "..."

After ten breaths, he laughed speechlessly: "If I had known it was you selling them, why would I have bothered to come here? I could have just asked you in the group to reserve some."

Zhou Miao chuckled awkwardly, "My bad, next time I'll post something in the group first."

"You should have done this a long time ago. My friends can deliver goods too, right?"

"Sure, anyone who lives in Nanzhen is fine."

"Okay, I'll ask in the group."

Qin Han then sent a message in the group, telling a few friends in the group that Zhou Miao was selling halibut and blue crabs recently, and asking if they wanted to buy any, as he could deliver them to their door.

The group chat immediately buzzed with excitement as people placed orders after learning that the fish was caught and caught on the spot.

Currently, there are only eight people in the group besides Zhou Miao, but their orders add up to a total of fifty catties of halibut and sixty-five catties of blue crab.

This made Zhou Miao immediately realize the spending power of this group of people, and he felt that he should maintain good relationships with these customers, so he also sent a message in the group.

"My fishing raft will be open soon, and everyone is welcome to come and have some fun. Perhaps because of its good location, there aren't many big fish, but there are plenty of small fish. You can catch some to take home and cook. There will be no charge before it officially opens."

"Holy crap, is this for real?"

"We definitely have to go! Anyone want to team up?"

"What if there are no fish?"

"If you don't have fish, just ask the boss. If the boss says he has fish, then he definitely has fish."

Zhou Miao smiled upon seeing this and quickly typed with both hands.

"If there's no fish, it's on me. I definitely won't let you go back empty-handed."

Qin Han: "Of course I'll be free! Let's go, brothers!"

Seeing everyone eager to go, Zhou Miao smiled and asked him, "Brother, would you like to ride back with me, or do you want to check out the seafood market first?"

"I drove here too. I'll go buy some abalone first, and then go after lunch."

"Okay, I'll wait for you at the fish raft."

After saying goodbye to Qin and Han, Zhou Miao took Lu Xiaoxiao back to the fishing raft.

At this time, Master Sun had already led the workers to do the final painting work, and another group of people were installing the wind-solar hybrid power system. It was estimated that the project would be completed in three or four days.

The long-awaited fish raft has finally been completed, and Zhou Miao is quite looking forward to it.

It's not that I'm expecting the business to be great after it officially opens, but rather that I'm looking forward to the rewards and benefits after completing the requests for help.

There are only so many tourists here, so there's not much to look forward to.

Secondly, besides the fact that the Xuan Gui Fish Raft is about to be completed.

Not far away, a giant sea turtle's nest is also being built.

The Nanzhen Cultural Tourism Bureau arranged for people to build a small home for the sea turtle, giving it a fixed place to rest.

Clearly, the cultural and tourism authorities intend to turn sea turtles into internet celebrities to attract tourists.

Therefore, Lu Xingyu, who has direct contact with sea turtles, needs to attend training sessions every day recently, and will become the sea turtles' exclusive caretaker in the future.

This was a decision made after Zhou Miao and the other two discussed it, since the sea turtle was the closest to him and he had been feeding it the most during this period.

From now on, Lu Xiaoxiao will be in charge of things on the fish rafts. If she gets too busy, she'll hire someone else.

Zhou Miao also had his own things to do, which was to drift aimlessly at sea.

If he didn't act recklessly, Luo Hao and Lu Xingyu wouldn't be happy!

It was still early when they got back to the fish raft. Considering that Qin Han's group would be coming over in the afternoon, Zhou Miao took some fish traps and set off by boat to the mangroves and the habitat of the flounder to set them up.

The number of blue crabs has decreased by more than half, but they are not gone.

In an afternoon, even if you don't put in a lot, you can still get more than ten kilograms by putting in five cages, which is just right to serve this group of customers in the evening.

Once you build a good relationship, customers will refer other customers, and your business will naturally grow bigger and bigger.

The older generation always says that suffering a loss is a blessing, which clearly refers to the initial investment.

If you suffer the loss of being bullied, you have to fight back directly.

Confucius said that we should "repay kindness with kindness and repay injustice with justice".

How could the words of our ancestors be wrong?

Zhou Miao dared to set up traps during the day without being seen because he knew that the daytime harvest wouldn't be much, just enough for his own family to eat, so being seen wouldn't attract attention.

After setting up the fish trap, he went to Tingtao Fishing Raft. While having lunch there, he also took the opportunity to ask Luo Hao about the trawling.

But after arriving here, he discovered that Luo Qianqian had changed.

For the first few days, she ignored him and only chatted happily with him online.

And when she saw him coming over, she immediately stuck to him.

Feeling the softness on his arm, Zhou Miao, who hadn't eaten meat in many years, was immediately tempted.

But he still asked, rather obliviously, "Did you take the wrong medicine today?"
