Seeing the photos Yang Fan sent of the large yellow croaker, Shen Yafei immediately blinked her beautiful big eyes, wearing a look of disbelief.
She naturally recognized the yellow croaker and instantly knew these were genuine wild yellow croaker.
Anyone with some knowledge would know that yellow croaker are divided into wild and farmed varieties.
The difference between them is huge and obvious to the discerning eye.
Farmed yellow croaker are dull in color, lacking that golden hue, and their bodies are fat and bloated.
Wild yellow croaker, on the other hand, have shiny golden bodies and slender shapes.
The fish in these photos were clearly real wild yellow croaker!
As the owner of a seafood banquet hall, Shen Yafei was very well aware of how rare wild yellow croaker are.
Currently on the market, wild yellow croaker are worth their weight in gold.
Moreover, they are scarce—most ordinary people cannot buy them even if they want to.
For example, the most expensive dish on a famous "West Suburb No.5" bill in the metropolis was a wild yellow croaker weighing a full 7.4 pounds.
How much was that fish priced at?
15,800 yuan per pound, totaling 116,920 yuan for 7.4 pounds!
A single 7-pound fish sold for over one hundred thousand yuan—it's easy to see how highly wild yellow croaker are valued today!
[Boss Shen, just caught some fish. Interested?]
Reading Yang Fan's message, Shen Yafei suddenly felt it was almost unreal.
This young fisherman, who left a deep impression on her as sunny and handsome, must have incredibly good luck, right?
Yesterday he just caught two exquisite Chinese lobsters, and today he's hooked so many huge wild yellow croaker?
Could he be the legendary "Lucky Emperor" (someone unbelievably lucky)?
Or maybe it wasn't luck at all, but his superb fishing skills that allowed him to often catch such premium seafood?
But once this thought arose, Shen Yafei immediately dismissed it.
Fishing skills and net casting techniques may affect the quantity of catch, but not so much the chance to catch such extremely rare premium seafood.
After all, the reason wild yellow croaker and exquisite lobsters are so expensive is that they are extremely scarce.
The odds of catching such prized seafood are extremely, extremely low.
Even the most skilled veteran fishermen may never catch such top-grade seafood in their lifetime.
"Looking at it this way, this handsome young fisherman really has some great luck, and it was quite fortunate that I happened to meet him at the pier yesterday," Shen Yafei thought, smiling gently.
Immediately, she made a video call to Yang Fan.
Naturally, she wanted to quickly discuss buying the yellow croaker.
If she could purchase all eight huge wild yellow croaker, it would be a perfect chance to make her seafood banquet hall famous in Beihai's high-end seafood dining market!
…
On the sea, after sending the message to Shen Yafei, Yang Fan started the boat and headed back.
But barely a few minutes into sailing, his phone rang.
"So fast?"
Yang Fan guessed it was Shen Yafei and took out his phone. Sure enough, it was her.
Once the video connected, Shen Yafei's exquisitely beautiful face appeared on the screen.
Yang Fan was very moved—true beauties still look stunning even without beauty filters on the front camera.
"Hello, handsome young man," Shen Yafei smiled.
"Uh, Boss Shen, just call me Yang Fan," he replied with a bitter smile.
"Oh, the handsome young man is shy now? Fine then, Yang Fan, how many wild yellow croaker did you catch? Can I see them?" Shen Yafei smiled and didn't dwell on the formality of addressing him, quickly getting to the point.
"Sure."
Yang Fan nodded and opened the cooler's lid, turning the camera toward the eight yellow croaker inside.
"Definitely wild yellow croaker! Yang Fan, you're amazing!"
Although mentally prepared, Shen Yafei still couldn't hide her excitement seeing these eight huge, perfectly shaped wild yellow croaker over video.
"Yang Fan, are you still at sea? Can you come to the seafood exchange pier where we met yesterday? I promise to give you the fairest price for these wild yellow croaker!"
"Yeah, sure. I trust Boss Shen's ability and sincerity," Yang Fan smiled.
After exchanging a few polite remarks, they ended the call.
Yang Fan then sailed for an hour or two and finally arrived at the seafood exchange pier he had visited the day before.
"Yang Fan, over here!"
As soon as Yang Fan moored his boat at the dock, he saw the beautiful, regal Shen Yafei walking over waving at him from not far away.
Obviously, this stunning woman had driven ahead to the pier to wait for him.
Of course, Yang Fan also knew strictly speaking she wasn't waiting for him personally, but for the cooler of premium wild yellow croaker in his hands.
