Chapter 5 - Chapter 5 : A Small Goal

"All right, you caught the fish. You call the shots."

Mike didn't have a problem with it, "But I still have to borrow a scale. There are crabs."

Hearing this, everyone just subconsciously looked at the other basin.

But when they saw the crabs in the basin, they suddenly exclaimed again.

"Oh, the crabs are so big!"

"Crabs are fattest in October, and it's only August. How can they grow so big? Is this farm-raised crabs? "

" The three biggest ones have to be 0.4-0.5 kilograms? "

Even Emilee's eyes brightened as she said," They look good. They look like wild crabs, but am not sure. "

" What do you say, handsome boy? " Emilee looked at Randall.

After being called a handsome boy by such a rich and beautiful woman, Randall nodded his head and said,

" Don't worry, I caught these crabs and this snakehead myself in the river. I guarantee they are wild! "

At this moment, a Boss walked up, grabbed a crab, looked at the color and appearance of the crab, and smelt the crab.

" He's right. The crab is indeed wild , and it's a crab near the river. The crab s are as good in appearance and quality as those from famous lakes.

"The river nearby is very deep, so he may have very special skills or is very good at swimming to catch the crabs. So impressive."

Rudy said.

After hearing this, people were excited.

"Mr. Wood used to raise crabs. If says it's wild, it must be wild."

"Indeed, the Sutton River and it's tributaries are probably the only ones to support crabs of this size this season."

"Without further ado, I want ten, at the market price!"

"Get out of here. The wild crabs that big at this season are rare. Can you get it at regular market price?"

" Yes, I'll take five. I give same price as the famous lakes hairy crab!"

" Everyone is civilized. First come, first served!"

" No! whoever grabs it earns it!"

" Wait! The scale is coming."

Just then, Mike came over with an electronic scale in his arms.

The crowd couldn't wait to say immediately, " please weigh the three largest crabs first. We wonder how many they weigh."

" Okay."

With a smile on his face, Mike skillfully weighed the three large crabs.

The largest was 0.47 kilograms. The other two were0.455 and 0.44 kilograms respectively.

As soon as the weight came out, there was another gasps of amazement. They were too big.

The price of the three crabs was probably worth more than 1500 dollars.

After all, an authentic wild crab, weighing more than a quarter of a kilogram, more than 100 dollars.

Crabs weighing more than 0.45 kilograms cost several times more and were not easy to get.

If auctioned at an event like Crab King Competition, the three crabs in developed cities were expected to bid more than 1500 dollars each.

For a moment, everyone was at a loss.

They wondered how much they should pay.

Emilee's eyes lit up and her hand waved. "I'll take the three crabs. I'll pay 720 dollars for the largest crab and 630 dollars and 570 dollars for the other two!"

As soon as the price was out, everyone couldn't help but smile sadly and shake their heads. That price was higher than everyone else's.

Who dared to argue?

Did rich people eat at their hotels?

Of course not!

Because that was the reality!

The same crab, on Crab King Competition, could sell at 1.5 thousand dollars or even three thousand dollars each.

But here, 450 dollars was their limit!

"720 dollars, 630 dollars, 570 dollars... That adds up to 1,920 dollars."

Randall was ecstatic. Man's happiness was so simple...

So great!

...

Next, Randall watched, almost dazed, as people fought over the crabs.

In addition to the three oversized ones, four males weighed 0.3 kilograms, and one female weighed 0.25 kilograms.

The male crabs were sold for 180 dollars each, and the female for 150 dollars!

The remaining crabs, usually between 150 grams and 200 grams were also sold for the highest market price.

An average of 100 dollars for three male crabs and 105 dollars for females.

after all the crabs were sold, Randall did a quick math, all the crabs totaled 3,855 dollars!

With the snakehead money,they made 5,855 dollars.

This was the first time he made this kind of easy money in his life, without working for long, no stress or sweat involved.

Randall was excited but was also looking forward to the future.

Because he knew that it was just a drop in the bucket.

There were countless rivers in the country.

The world had vast oceans to fish in.

There were endless riches in it, waiting to be discovered and explored!

Of course, Randall needed to take it slow.

First up, Randall set himself a goal of earning 15 million dollars!

LOL...

....

Emilee on the other hand, returned to her hotel and immediately snapped a picture of the snakehead and the oversized crab and posted it online.

Then Emilee picked up the phone and started dialing.

"Hello, Mr. Paul, We have received a wild snakehead fresh out of water. It is over a meter long! It could be a grand treat for business associates and friends... It's true. You can see the photos I posted. You have a reservation, right? Okay.

"Mrs. Powers, didn't you say you wanted to take your daughter to eat wild crabs? Our hotel received a few today. They're very big and will definitely satisfy you... Yes absolutely wild. You can see the pictures I posted. If you want it, just order it. "

...

After a few phone calls, Emilee crossed her legs and smiled.

The hotel had been open for half a month and the reputation was not very good. The main reason was the lack of scarce food.

After all, this rich people were tired of ordinary seafood.

Now the wild and rare seafood could attract.

With this rare seafood gimmicks, coupled with a variety of dishes, raw seafood, and high-end alcohol and tobacco, a casual meal could cost tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars.

They didn't come alone but in a small circle. They could order a regular bottle of wine for tens of thousands of dollars.

Thinking of this , Emilee took out her phone, clicked Randall's profile picture, and looked hopefully.

" I wonder whether Randall really is a good swimmer or has any special skills as Rudy said.

If Randall can get something rare every once in a while, the reputation of the hotel will go up fast! "

Emilee was thinking about this when her phone vibrated and a call came in from

" Tanya "

Emilee grinned and pressed the answer button. Before Emilee could say anything, Tanya said urgently.

"Emilee, the chairman of Lee Real Estate Company personally cut the ribbon at Mullen center of commerce opening ceremony today. In the evening, Mr. Lee will host a banquet for major partners and related department leaders!

"I recommended your hotel for his dinner. This is a great opportunity to promote your hotel. You should seize it! "

" What? "Emilee was surprised.

" Now Mr. Lee has arrived at Mullen. You've got a couple of hours to get ready, and I highly recommend your hotel. Make sure you get ready! "

" Okay. I'm going to go get ready. That's it! "

Emilee hung up the phone.

There was busy signal on the phone.

Emilee had a rude awakening. The chairman of Lee Real Estate Company would come! That was a golden opportunity!

Bob was a self-made real estate leader in Long area, a hot topic in the provincial capital.

Where Bob went, who he interacted with, and who he ate with were all tracked.

So, if it was done well, Emilee's hotel could get a lot of publicity.

Emilee called her office and arranged for her staff to go to fishing markets and buy up the best fresh produce. Emilee even reached out to some of her friends in the city.

But after everything was arranged, Emilee was still a little worried.

Emilee sent a lot of people to fish markets this days, but they rarely got gimmicky fresh produce.

For a while, it was hard to friends in the city, and it took a while for the seafood to arrive from the city.

Emilee was worried.

Emilee knew that with so many big names coming to the hotel, The reputation of the hotel would be greatly affected if they didn't serve the best seafood.

"What do I do..."

Emilee frowned and grieved as she held her phone.
