Although Hu Bin's face was still smiling, Lin Tianyu heard a faint dissatisfaction from his words, and he couldn't help but feel a sudden burst of fire. He knew how much benefit his crab brought to Wanfeng Hotel. From the kitchen guy who dealt with him, he heard that a two-pound Mediterranean thorn crab could be sold at a sky-high price of 8,000 yuan after steaming. Although the smaller price is relatively low, it is still thousands of yuan. For several thousand yuan per piece, the amount he earns is a fraction of the price.

However, Lin Tianyu did not refute this time, but just smiled slightly, "To be honest, I'm almost out of stock for crabs. Not to mention small ones, I'm not sure if I can get enough fifty kilograms next time, so I think you won't have to worry about this problem soon."

Hu Bin's face changed suddenly after hearing what he said. He was very professional, but he was still a little depressed when he heard such news.

Due to Lin Tianyu's relationship, the hotel's passenger flow has increased significantly this month. The high-end seafood such as Mediterranean thorn crab became very popular immediately after it was launched. After all, the rich people are the ones that are the most in short supply these days. The thorn crab has now become a signature dish of Wanfeng Hotel for its rare appearance and delicious taste. However, if there is no supply, it will probably be difficult for Wanfeng Hotel to continue to maintain its reputation, and its status in the hotel will inevitably be threatened.

Lin Tianyu felt proud when he saw the change in his face. He thought to himself that he knew the importance of me now, but he did not continue to get involved in this topic, but instead said.

"Of course, I have other high-end seafood to offer, but I just don't know if you can collect it."

Hu Bin was stunned when he heard this, thinking that there is something seafood that we can't afford? But on the surface, he still maintained excellent cultivation and made a gesture of invitation.

"I hope to hear the details."

Lin Tianyu smiled and said five words - "Bluefin Tuna."

Generally speaking, although tuna is generally considered a high-end aquatic product, the price differences between different species are very large. The cheapest ones are only a few dozen yuan per catty, such as yellowfin tuna, while the expensive ones are thousands or even thousands per catty - such as bluefin tuna.

The reason why bluefin tuna is expensive is largely due to overfishing in various countries, which leads to the decrease in annual output of this fish. However, for Lin Tianyu, bluefin tuna is not uncommon. He can occasionally encounter it when fishing in the sea near the island, let alone going deep into the sea.

Obviously, because the fishing industry in the world where the island is located is not developed, bluefin tuna is not as rare as the world where he is now.

As for the price of bluefin tuna, Lin Tianyu remembered a news from a few months ago that he saw online.

On January 5, Japan's major wholesale markets in the country specializing in fresh foods such as aquatic products and fruits and vegetables ushered in its first trading day. In the Tsukiji Market in Tokyo, a bluefin tuna produced in Toi, Hokkaido became the "Japan One" this year (the No. tuna of Japan) with a weight of 342 kg.

In the end, it was won by Yosuke Imada, the owner of a high-end sushi restaurant in Ginza, Tokyo, and the owner of a sushi chain in Hong Kong. The transaction price was 32.49 million yen (about 2.62 million yuan), and the fish meat would be divided equally by the two.

Tsukiji Market said that this is the highest price for a single tuna auction since Japan began counting tuna prices in 1999, setting a new record set in 2001. The transaction price of "Japan I" that year was 20.2 million yen, which is also the first time that the tuna produced in Toi, Hokkaido has been sold at the highest price in history.

Although this market is not common, only those rare big guys can enjoy such a price, it also indirectly shows that the price of bluefin tuna is expensive. A bluefin tuna weighing 200 to 300 pounds can also be sold for tens of thousands of dollars.

Unlike the completely novelty of Mediterranean thorn crab, bluefin tuna is expensive, but generally not uncommon. At least Wanfeng has dishes made from this ingredient, but because the demand is not very high, the inventory is not large, and because the fish is difficult to preserve, the fish is bought all frozen fish.

When Hu Bin heard that Lin Tianyu could get fresh bluefin tuna, he suddenly felt a little confused. He was well-informed and naturally had some understanding of the price of bluefin tuna.

At this moment, he immediately showed an unprecedented smile, "Of course I can accept it, but are you sure it's fresh?"

"Of course it's fresh, but to be honest, I'm considering changing a customer recently. After all, the price you gave me is not very good. As far as I know, there seem to be several star-rated hotels in S City. I think they should be very interested in high-end seafood like bluefin tuna."

Hu Bin calmed down when he heard this. His thoughts were very delicate when he was able to become the manager of a three-star hotel. Although Lin Tianyu said this, he could see that the other party was simply bluffing, just to threaten the benefits.

If Lin Tianyu really plans to change customers, he can do it quietly and there is no need to mention it in front of him.

Thinking of this, he smiled slightly: "What are the conditions?"

Lin Tianyu was slightly stunned, "What conditions?"

"Yes, I need to promise you what conditions you can sell me the bluefin tuna."

Lin Tianyu smiled and said that it was convenient to deal with smart people. His expression became solemn, "First of all, I sold the whole one. If I want to buy it, I must buy it. I can give you a little cheaper price, two thousand yuan per kilogram, which is far lower than the current market price, and there is a very different difference between fresh goods and frozen goods."

"Second, you must pay cash, and you must check it in person during the transaction. I can't trust the bank." Of course, he had some considerations about saying this. After all, he was an ordinary white-collar worker who didn't even have a job. He suddenly earned hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars, which would inevitably lead to doubt. Moreover, compared to the bank, he felt that the island was more safer.

Hu Bin immediately fell into deep thought after hearing this. An adult bluefin tuna weighs about 2000 kilograms, and a large one is not rare. If it is 2,000 yuan per kilogram, one is hundreds of thousands of yuan and needs to be traded in cash. This is not a small amount. Moreover, bluefin tuna is relatively difficult to sell due to its high price, but he also saw great opportunities. As Lin Tianyu said, the price offered by Lin Tianyu is far lower than the current market price. If he can make profits from it, he can make a big profit.

Thinking of this, he began to take stock of the relationships and resources he had. After considering it clearly, Hu Bin smiled slightly, "These two conditions are fine, I agree with the price, but I also have a condition."

Lin Tianyu said: "Tell me."

Hu Bin lowered his voice: "We need to do this transaction in private."

"Do it in private?" Lin Tianyuxin said what he meant. He glanced at the smile on the corner of Hu Bin's mouth, and immediately understood in his heart that he wanted to avoid Wanfeng Hotel and eat alone.

This is interesting. Lin Tianyu knew that the price difference between the bluefin tuna he sold would definitely be very different once he changed his hand. If it was a normal situation like him, it would be very unprofitable. However, for Lin Tianyu, the source of goods was not a problem at all. The only problem was how to ship large and fast. If he went to formal channels to negotiate the price and sell it slowly, although the price could be sold higher, the energy and time required was more than he used for fishing, which was not worth it at all.

Therefore, he is not a big deal about whether Wanfeng makes this money or Hu Bin makes this money. Selling quickly and making a steady profit is the king.

The price of 2,000 yuan per kilogram seems to be less expensive than the current price of 3,000 yuan per kilogram on the market, but don’t forget that the market is frozen, and what he sells is fresh. This alone can at least double the price. As long as Hu Bin can sell bluefin tuna, even if he sells it cheaper, it will not be a problem to make a double difference.

One of the two wanted to ship a large amount of goods quickly and the other wanted to earn the difference, so they quickly hit it off and agreed to trade privately on the next Friday, and the price was set at 2,000 yuan per kilogram.

The business was negotiated, Lin Tianyu received the recent payment for the goods and then left. The only problem for him now is how to catch bluefin tuna.

Because of its huge size and rapidity, it is very difficult to catch bluefin tuna. It usually requires several people to catch it together, and there must be regular fishing boats and fishing equipment. However, these traditional catching methods are completely unrealistic for Lin Tianyu. He has neither fishing boats nor corresponding fishing equipment. Moreover, even if there are those things, he cannot operate because he has only one person. Therefore, after repeated consideration, Lin Tianyu decided to use the underwater shooting method, which is also the simplest and most barbaric catching method. For this reason, he spent a lot of money to order a set of diving equipment, salamboons and other equipment. The time should be coming soon.

When he arrived at the door of his house, he saw a petite figure poking his head in front of the door. Who was it if it was Xiao You?

Seeing Lin Tianyu get out of the car, Xiao You immediately came over.

"Oh, you're back. I'll wait for you for a long time."

"What's wrong? Is there anything wrong?" Lin Tianyu asked in confusion.

"I have a package from you there, which I delivered this morning. It's so big."

Lin Tianyu said in his heart that he had finally arrived, and it was the diving equipment he ordered.

ps: There is another chapter tonight.
