"The nights are long and the dreams are many. These treasure fish must be sold immediately to repay the gambling debts of Huangjinfang. Otherwise, I'm afraid they will get into trouble."
Su Hao said secretly.
Having money is not a bad thing, but having money without the ability to keep this wealth is like walking around in a busy city with gold, and you will definitely get into trouble.
So they immediately sold Baoyu and repaid the money to Huangjinfang, letting outsiders see it and think they didn't have much money left, so they wouldn't get into trouble!
Su Hao packed three iron-horned fish and one red-scaled fish. As for the expensive 'Emerald Carp', Su Hao put it into a small water tank and hid it under the bed.
After doing all this, Su Hao carried two baskets of fish to the fish market in Dongshi.
The fish market is quite lively, with stalls, barrels and basins filled with fish of various colors.
There is a 1,300-mile-long Dajiang River in Da Da County, which is naturally rich in fish, and fish is a common food on every household's table.
In the fish market located to the east, Su Hao came carrying two boxes of fish.
"Ahao, I haven't seen you for a few days. I heard that you went fishing? The harvest looks good!"
A middle-aged man came over and said casually.
He has been killing fish in this fish market for many years, so many people know him.
"Well, it's quite a harvest. Let's take it to the fish market and sell it. Do you want to choose two?" Su Hao said with a smile.
Hearing this, the middle-aged man nodded: "I'm just here to buy fish, let me take a look."
The middle-aged man was quickly stunned. He saw several fish placed in a separate fish frame. He rubbed his eyes in disbelief and exclaimed with wide eyes: "This is... treasure fish?"
"Baoyu?"
As soon as these words came out, it immediately attracted the attention of many people in the fish market, and they gathered around him.
Treasure fish are very rare, but with so many fishermen fishing, after all, people are often lucky enough to catch them in the Dajiang River. Every time they appear in the market, they attract the envy and attention of many people. As soon as they hear that there are treasure fish, they are always excited. Many people gathered around to join in the fun.
"Is this a red-scaled fish? What kind of fish is that with horns on its head?"
"The iron horned fish... can strengthen the body and replenish the innate physical weakness of the iron horned fish! Three of them at once? Is this a stab at the treasure fish nest?"
The crowd who gathered around to join in the fun screamed in surprise. Su Hao caught several treasure fish at once. This situation was relatively rare, and many people had a burning look in their eyes.
Su Hao understood that if he wanted to sell Baoyu, it would inevitably cause some waves, which was unavoidable.
"Ahao...have you found any good hiding places? Next time you go out on the ship...I'm willing to help you!"
An elderly man gathered around and said with a warm smile on his face.
"Get out! A good nest is the greatest wealth for fishermen. You old guy still want to bully Ah Hao for being young and ignorant?"
Someone immediately cursed, thinking that this old man who coveted Su Hao's fishing den was too shameless.
The fish market was quite lively for a while because of Su Hao's several treasure fish.
"Spread out! Don't crowd!"
At this time, someone shouted, the person who spoke seemed to be quite prestigious, and many people quickly backed away to make way.
A man with dark skin, strong build, in his twenties and thirties, who looked quite honest in appearance strode over.
"Liu Peng is in charge."
When Su Hao saw this strong man, he nodded slightly and said hello.
In the east area of the fish market, there are fishermen and managers. This strong man Liu Peng is the manager of the east area of the fish market. He has a straight temper and speaks without thinking, but he is not a sinister and deep person, so he is relatively easy to deal with.
"Treasure fish... really treasure fish! Red-scaled fish, strong blood and body! Good stuff! Iron-horned fish... tsk tsk... three of them? Is this a litter? I heard that the Zhao family's young master was born with a weak body, and the Zhao family's Bian will definitely be willing to accept it.”
When Liu Peng saw the four precious fish in the fish frame, he also admired them and his eyes lit up.
In this fish market, buying and selling requires paying high venue fees. If someone catches a treasure fish, they, the stewards, will also make some money, and Liu Peng will naturally be happy.
"Ahao, do you want to sell all these fish? I will weigh it for you and give you a valuation. You will not suffer any loss. If you are satisfied, I will take it directly."
Liu Peng immediately looked up at Su Hao and said with burning eyes.
"Then it's up to Manager Liu." Su Hao nodded in agreement. It would take time for him to sell it himself. It would be the most time-saving and effortless to directly let Liu Peng buy it and then resell it.
Under the envious and passionate gazes of many fishermen around him, Liu Peng ordered a scale to be weighed by these precious fish.
"This red-scaled fish weighs three kilograms and nine taels, which is considered to be four kilograms. According to the market price, it is worth fourteen taels of silver."
"Three iron horned fish, one weighs five catties and two taels, one weighs three catties and forty taels, and one weighs two catties and forty taels, the total weight is eleven catties. The market price of iron horned fish is one catty and thirteen taels of silver, so the total is counted as 143 taels of silver. .”
"Add the two together...the total is one hundred and fifty-seven taels of silver!"
Liu Peng weighed and appraised all the treasure fish one by one, and finally came up with the total price of these treasure fish.
"157 taels of silver!"
There were a series of swallowing sounds all around, and their eyes showed envy, jealousy, and fire.
"It's too exaggerated... I've been fishing for ten years, and I can't make as much as Ah Hao this time."
Some people are envious in their hearts.
Not to mention other people, even Liu Peng himself felt complicated. As one of the stewards of the East District of the fish market, he also ran a fish shop and only made dozens of taels of silver a year. Su Hao was really gone. Good luck!
This is Dajiang! There are countless treasures in it. If you are lucky enough and blessed by God, you may become rich overnight!
"Ah Hao, according to the rules, the fish market will take 30%, so what you get in the end is 110 taels of silver. Do you think this price is suitable?" Liu Peng calmed down his complicated mood and asked Su Hao.
In Da County, there is also black and white exploitation. All transactions in the market require venue fees, and no one is exempt.
The price Liu Peng gave was indeed the market price, and he did not embarrass or trick Su Hao. After all, there were so many people watching around, and Liu Peng couldn't cheat.
Su Hao nodded and responded: "Then I'll follow your wishes, Manager Liu."
All these treasure fish were sold, and everyone around them was envious. Someone shouted: "Ah Hao, your family has become rich now. You have become rich overnight! You need to treat us to a treat!"
"Yes, yes!" Everyone around agreed.
When Su Hao saw this, he knew that such a large sum of money would arouse the jealousy of many people. He sighed and said, "How can I get rich? My father owes a hundred taels of gambling debt to Huangjinfang. Fortunately, my father God's blessing allowed me to catch a few treasure fish. The money was used to repay the Golden Square, but there was not much left."
As soon as these words came out, everyone around looked at each other.
"It's true... people from Golden Square went to Ahao's house a few days ago, rummaged through and smashed it. I heard that Old Su owed Golden Square money, so he fled out of fear of crime!"
"Lao Su is not someone who abandons his wife..."
Many people had heard about Su Hao's family. After hearing the whispers, most of their jealousy and jealousy towards Su Hao disappeared, and their hearts became more balanced.
The money owed to Golden Square cannot be squandered!
“But to celebrate God’s favor, all other fish are discounted at 20%!”
Su Hao immediately said that the fish he brought there were also many other ordinary fish, and they were all quite plump!
