Chapter 261: Alligator Trading Market

Chapter 261 Alligator Trading Market

Seeing that Chu Mingcheng successfully subdued the crocodile, Noah drove very quietly tonight, not talking as much as before.

Chu Mingcheng also leaned quietly to rest. He didn't feel it when he suppressed the crocodile just now, but now he found himself very tired, and the muscles in his arms were a little sore.

Especially in the crotch, it will still be a little painful.

He put his hands in his pockets and secretly checked.

Fortunately, there is no problem, it's just a little painful to be left alone.

Suddenly, Noah patted the steering wheel with a serious expression, as if he had made a huge decision: "Cheng, I'm going to mess with you. You need my experience, and I can make more money by following you."

"Oh shit, who can say no to more money?"

"You made a correct decision Noah." Chu Mingcheng opened his eyes and smiled.

A successful hunt increased Noah's confidence in him a lot.

The various hunting methods in the video made Chu Mingcheng suddenly understand that he didn't need to learn so much.

He is most familiar with fishing, and crocodiles can also be caught, so this method of catching can be used all the time.

So after he has hunted and killed some 2-meter-long alligators alone to gain experience, Noah is dispensable to him.

It is obviously impossible for him to get 20% of the profit by then, no matter how good their current cooperation is, it is unrealistic.

Came to the wooden house, went in and looked at the internal environment, Chu Mingcheng planned to spend the night in the car at night.

It’s not that it’s too dirty, but that the wooden house only has two small rooms. Laishia has one room alone, and the remaining three men have another room.

Chu Mingcheng didn't want to be crowded with two big men, not to mention that Noah and Victor, who didn't take a shower and sprayed perfume on their bodies, still had body odor, and he couldn't bear it even more.

There are no large terrestrial carnivorous animals in Australia, and some ferocious carnivorous animals also live in Tasmania, so he slept in the car and did not encounter any brown bears pulling the car at night.

Although there were still the sounds of various animals and insects, Chu Mingcheng slept well.

It is estimated that this is also the main reason why Laishia wants to stay here for one night, and is not afraid that the crocodile in the car will be stolen by ferocious predators.

It's just that the space in the car is small, which made the recovery of his arms not ideal after waking up in the morning, so he used a life transformation to adjust his state to the best.

Before getting out of the car, he inspected for four weeks and found no danger, so he came down with a bottle of mineral water to rinse his mouth, and then ate a piece of bread to fill his stomach.

After a while, Laishia walked out of the cabin.

She was a little surprised when she saw Chu Mingcheng moving her body: "Cheng, you woke up so early? Didn't you sleep well last night?"

"I slept well, I usually get up so early, I'm used to it." Chu Mingcheng continued to move his body, and didn't stop just because Laishia came out.

Last night, the loose short sleeves got a lot of sea water and sweat when subduing the alligator, so he changed his clothes in the car at night.

The current clothes are a little tight with short sleeves, causing the clothes to be supported by his figure, and a pair of strong pectoralis major muscles are clearly visible.

This made Laishia secretly glance at him from time to time while eating breakfast.

Handsome appearance and strong figure all attract women like her who are always on the verge of danger.

Naihe learned from Noah the night before last that Chu Mingcheng has a family and is also a very responsible man, which makes her very regretful.

Noah and Victor didn't sleep late, and walked out of the cabin almost at the same time around seven o'clock.

So a group of people drove back, had a delicious meal in the evening, and lay on the soft bed for a good night's sleep.

After two o'clock in the afternoon, the group returned to the urban area.

Chu Mingcheng first came to the city hall. The crocodile Laishia had attacked people before, so after a rigorous investigation, the city hall issued a bounty after confirmation.

The bounty was 20,000 Australian dollars, which surprised him. He didn't expect it to be so much.

However, before claiming the bounty, Victor submitted the video he shot to it, and after review, the bounty will be sent to Laishia's account within seven working days.

Secondly, she can also come by herself to receive the cash directly.

Of course, crocodiles that have not issued a bounty have to be sent to the city government for review as soon as they are caught.

Chu Mingcheng originally thought that the crocodiles would be handed over to the city government, but he didn't expect that after the city government stamped the crocodiles, they would be taken to the crocodile trading market for disposal.

Then the group drove to the trading market again, which was not far from the city hall.

Chu Mingcheng walked in and found that this trading market only allowed crocodile hunters and qualified businessmen to enter, and the control was very strict.

It’s right to think about it. If the first-hand crocodiles can be bought and sold at will, it is impossible for the crocodiles in Australia to flood. I believe there will be a lot of poachers.

The crocodile meat sold in normal stores is purchased from these vendors.

From Noah’s mouth, I learned that, except for a very small number of live crocodiles in Australia, they are bought and sent to the zoo, and all the rest will be slaughtered.

Crocodile skin is exported to Europe to be made into bags, and crocodile meat is exported to some countries in Southeast Asia that like to eat crocodiles.

Perhaps the peak season for hunting crocodiles has not yet begun, there are very few people in the trading market, and Chuming City has not seen any particularly large crocodiles.

Therefore, Laishia, a crocodile of more than three meters, attracted a group of people in just a short while.

The trading of crocodiles is similar to that of tuna. You need to weigh them, check the freshness of the meat, and give an estimated price.

Of course, the price is negotiable. Secondly, live crocodiles basically only look at their weight, and check their vitality and health.

After a fierce battle of words, Laishia, a live crocodile more than three meters long, sold for 35,000 Australian dollars, about 2,000 to 3,000 Australian dollars more than the dead crocodile.

That is to say, she earned 55,000 Australian dollars from this crocodile. Excluding part of the money due to Victor and Noah, she personally earned 44,000 Australian dollars.

But hunting a crocodile is not as simple as Chu Mingcheng saw.

Laishia and Victor were three days ahead of schedule. They first chose the bounty mission to inspect the video on the spot, and then went back to the city hall to apply. Only after the application was passed could they go hunting. It took a total of five days.

This is still in the vicinity of the city government, and some places are more remote, and the time will be longer.

After returning, according to Noah's statement, basically he will rest for two days, so the time to hunt a crocodile will be at least a week or so.

According to Laishia's current income situation, she can earn more than 160,000 Australian dollars a month.

Of course, there are not many bounty prey after all, and secondly, she generally does not catch giant alligators over four meters, so the specific income will be about 100,000 a month, and it may be a little less.

But the time to hunt alligators generally lasts until the middle of autumn in the second half of the year, so it seems that Laishia is a well-off rich man!

Busy for a few months a year, and waste the rest of the time?

This kind of life feels better than his fishing.

Leaving the trading market, Chu Mingcheng and Noah went to the hotel to open two rooms, and went back to their rooms to take a shower.

After taking a shower, he began to check the possibility of crocodile leather products being made in Australia on the computer.

Hearing today that all crocodile skins in Australia are exported to Europe, he is afraid that he will not be able to buy suitable bags in Australia.

After checking, Chu Mingcheng found out that if he wanted to give the women at home crocodile leather bags, he had to go to the local luxury store opened by Hermès to buy them.

Because wild crocodile skin products cannot be brought back to China, Hermès bags are made of crocodile skin raised in farms, but it doesn’t matter.

However, this is also very troublesome. It is necessary to issue a breeding certificate, etc., and the Australian customs and domestic customs will strictly check.

After reading it, Chu Mingcheng immediately felt that the women at home seemed to have no shortage of bags, and there was no need to bring new ones.

Besides, a newly released crocodile leather bag that is slightly bigger costs hundreds of thousands. If he buys three, wouldn’t he have to post all the money he earned from hunting crocodiles in Australia?

It’s better to bring them a few good-looking cloth bags, which are cheap and easy to use.

After a while, Noah knocked on the door and came in after taking a shower.

"Cheng, when are you going to go it alone?"

"Of course it is now! Although the people of Laixia are nice and gave me a chance to prove myself, I am not interested in working for others for nothing." Chu Mingcheng closed his laptop and said seriously.

Noah nodded unsurprisingly: "OK, I will explain this to Laishia. But I think you need an experienced assistant, maybe we can continue to cooperate."

"Haha, didn't you say you wanted to cooperate with me last night, and you brought it up again today, but I'm glad you are willing to help me!"

Noah's initiative made Chu Mingcheng smile. He was somewhat joking last night, but today he is absolutely serious.

It's only 20% of the profit, and he is naturally very happy to get his own ease and convenience.

The two agreed, and Noah left the hotel, probably to find Laishia to explain the situation.

Chu Mingcheng had nothing to do, so he made a video call to Jiang Luoluo.

It has been a long time since she returned to China, and she has already rented a commercial house.

It's similar to Chen Wanying's styling room, and I have to decorate it myself.

Two of the rooms were opened up and converted into a dance studio, and then the living room was converted into a public office and a small restaurant for eating, and the last room became Zhang Ruomei's independent office.

The kitchen can still cook, but according to Jiang Luoluo, it will be more troublesome to ask the aunt to cook if it doesn't meet the taste. It's better to let everyone order takeaway.

Occasionally employees don’t want to go out to eat, but they can cook something by themselves.

And there is a street next to the downstairs, it is very simple to have lunch.

After just a short while, Jiang Luoluo answered the phone.

You can see several masters in the background who are decorating, and she is obviously supervising the work.

"Ah Cheng, are you resting today?" It's only past twelve o'clock in the afternoon domestic time, and Jiang Luoluo was obviously a little surprised to call so early.

"Well, I'm off today. So I'll call you to see how things are going on your side."

"Well~ everything else is fine, but I have a little headache about accommodation."

"How to say?"

"I originally planned to recruit employees who lived in Xiamen City. If I recruited employees from other provinces, I had to arrange accommodation. I found that even if they were recruited from Xiamen City, most of them lived in relatively remote locations."

"Besides, I have someone I know in Pengcheng. She is a good dancer and is willing to join my team. I am wondering whether to arrange a place for her to live alone, or simply rent a big house for all the female employees to live together. gone."

Chu Mingcheng wanted to laugh a little after listening, this is not a trouble at all, this girl is purely sharing the latest happenings with herself.

"How many choreographers did you hire?"

Jiang Luoluo replied: "Just find one. If possible, I plan to find two more dance students at school and let them work part-time as assistants."

“I think these students will have more inspirations and ideas, and they have a strong ability to accept new things, and they may have unexpected gains.”

"Since there is only one dance teacher, let her live in my empty house! When I return from Australia, we will buy a house."

The house that Chu Mingcheng rented by himself has been vacant, so it is better to let others live in it to avoid waste.

He will definitely buy a house when he goes back this time, even if he has a swimming pool or not.

The big deal is to start the club at the same time, then the problem of the swimming pool will naturally be solved.
