Looking at Li Yizheng’s attentive expression, the woman only smiled slightly.
“Mr. Li, right? was the person who just called me and told me that there was a splendid lobster to be sold. Is that person you?”
Her voice was very pleasant to the ears. It was different from the clear and melodious voice of a young girl. It was more imposing and full of the bearing of a big sister.
She was the boss of this seafood city. Her name was Chen Fanxing. Her status was outstanding and she had quite a reputation in the food and beverage industry.
“Yes, yes, yes!”
Li Yizheng had an excited look on his face. “It’s me, it’s me.”
“What’s going on?” She looked at the group of fishermen.
Li Yizheng explained, “they have their eyes on this lobster as well. They are asking for a price.”
Hearing this, Chen Fanxing glanced at the huge lobster on the ground. A trace of surprise flashed across her beautiful eyes.
But very quickly, she suppressed this expression and said calmly, “everyone, give me some face and give me this beautiful lobster. How about it?”
Although it was a request, but if it came from her mouth, there was an unquestionable meaning.
“Of course, of course, of course. President Chen has already made an appearance, how can we compete with you?”
The fat boss next to him looked embarrassed. “Li, look at you. You didn’t even inform me that you had contacted President Chen.”
Clearly, he knew this woman.
Li Yizheng spread out his hands. “I was originally planning to go to President Chen’s side. Who asked you to stop me? You even insisted on buying these embroidered lobsters 10% above the market price.”
The fat boss immediately became even more embarrassed.
Chen Fanxing did not mind the filth. She squatted down and began to observe the appearance of the two splendid lobsters. She nodded her head in satisfaction.
“Get on the scale and weigh them.”
Two men immediately walked out from the side and carried the lobsters onto the scale.
Not long after, the man turned around and shouted, “4.75 kilograms.”
There was an uproar in the crowd.
“Are you kidding me? It’s so heavy, 9.5 catties?”
“How many catties is the heaviest lobster in the history of our fish market?”
“It seems to be 4.7 catties, not even half of this weight.”
“I remember that 4.7 catties of lobster has been sold for more than 90,000 yuan. I wonder how much this can be sold for.”
“This kid is rich.”
…
While everyone was discussing, Li Yizheng also stood beside Qi Hang and whispered to him.
“Damn, why is this lobster so heavy? I didn’t feel it was this heavy when I touched it.”
Qi Hang glanced at this fellow. “Ask the lobster! Why are you asking me!”
“F*ck!”
Li Yizheng slapped his thigh. “You didn’t secretly inject water into the body of the shrimp, right?”
It seemed that this was the only possibility that could explain this result.
Li Yizheng fished all year round. Basically, he could roughly estimate the weight of the fish and shrimp in his hand.
Previously, he had felt that the male’s splendid lobster was only about six catties. Now, it was more than half of what he had expected. How could he not be surprised?
Seeing Li Yizheng’s worried expression, Qi Hang could not help but be speechless.
“You came with me. You don’t know whether I injected water or not?”
“Then you must have injected it with hormones in advance!”
“What kind of hormones are so awesome? Why don’t you say that your hand is crippled!”
“Impossible!”
“Your eye must be bad! How can your hand not be crippled! I told you to masturbate less, but you didn’t listen!”
“…”
In fact, Qi Hang could roughly guess the reason why this splendid lobster suddenly became heavier.
Basically, it had something to do with the essence of the ocean.
Just look at the other female shrimp and you would know.
It did not taste the trace of the essence of the ocean, and the result was obvious. There was no change at all.
The male shrimp only tasted a little bit, and in a short period of time, it gained several pounds. Even its body size had grown by a lot.
At this time, the female lobster was completely incomparable in front of it.
“The ocean essence can still be used like this.”
Qi Hang muttered to himself as if finding a way to eat lobsters every day was a little extravagant.
This thing could save a life with just a drop. Using it to raise lobsters was really not something that carbon-based creatures could do.
“What did you say?”
Li Yizheng, who had been staring at Chen Fanxing, could not help but turn his head when he heard him mumbling something.
“Nothing.”
Qi Hang shook his head. Chen Fanxing, who was weighing the shrimp, had also made a preliminary assessment and was walking toward them.
“F*ck, f*ck, f*ck, the Goddess is coming!”
Li Yizheng excitedly grabbed Qi Hang’s hand.
Qi Hang, “…”
“I’ve seen your lobster. The quality is very good. It’s already the standard of the International Forum’s dining standards. I’m willing to pay 688,000 yuan for this splendid lobster. The other one is not bad. I can pay 128,000 yuan. If it’s possible, we can go through the handover procedures.”
Chen Fanxing’s words were directed at Li Yizheng. After all, Li Yizheng’s skin was dark and he was more like a fisherman. Hence, he mistakenly thought that he was the one who caught the lobster.
“688,000 yuan??”
Li Yizheng was dumbfounded. “Did I hear wrongly, President Chen? You said 680,000?”
“Yes.” Chen Fanxing nodded slightly and did not explain too much.
“F*ck! Qi Hang, you’ve struck it rich!”
Li Yizheng immediately hugged Qi Hang in excitement. His entire body was trembling. “It adds up to more than 800,000 yuan! How many years do I have to catch fish like this!”
Hearing this, Chen Fanxing was a little surprised. She looked at the fair and handsome man beside the tanned fisherman.
“This shrimp is yours?”
“Yes.” Qi Hang only nodded lightly.
This calm look could not help but make Chen Fanxing think highly of this man.
800,000 yuan was not a small amount. Looking at Qi Hang’s young age, it was extremely rare for him to be able to face such a large amount of wealth without being moved.
Just look at Li Yizheng who was shouting beside him.
This man could do great things!
Chen Fanxing handed over a business card.
“This has my contact information. In the future, if there are any good goods, you can choose to cooperate with my channel first. Don’t worry about the profits. I will definitely not let you suffer a loss.”
Qi Hang took the business card and glanced at it lightly. He knew the other party’s name.
“If there’s a chance, I will.”
After getting a reply, Chen Fanxing asked his employees to handle the handover procedures. At the same time, he transferred the money for the two beautiful lobsters into Qi Hang’s account.
The sound of a text message came from Qi Hang’s phone. It indicated that the money had already been transferred into his account.
The two of them chatted for a while. Qi Hang’s extraordinary conversation skills made Chen Fanxing have a good impression of him.
Li Yizheng was watching from the side. He did not say a word to Chen Fanxing until the other party said that he had something to do and left.
This made him feel extremely vexed.
“Sigh, I can’t get this girl anymore. The counter-attacks in online novels are all lies. You, Qi Hang, are the main character!”
“What nonsense.”
Qi Hang laughed loudly. “Let’s go and have a good meal!”
