Golden Fishery

Eight hundred and twenty-seven. Miami Style (5/8)

phone-reading

In the evening, the outdoor temperature in Miami began to drop, but because of its proximity to the ocean, the temperature dropped very slowly, making people feel the warmth of a seaside city unconsciously.

At this time, seafood shops are not busy. The busiest times are in the morning and afternoon, when chefs from various hotels come to check the quality of seafood for purchase. During lunch and dinner, it is the turn of restaurants and hotels to work, so the seafood shops are naturally crowded.

Of course, the business is still good. Many tourists who come to Miami will come to seafood shops to buy some ingredients, and then go to restaurants outside for OEM processing.

Butler is very capable, and the reputation of Daqin Seafood has already been established. To be honest, the seafood from Daqin Fishing Ground is indeed extraordinary in taste, so even though the price is much higher than the market price of similar products, many people still favor the seafood here. .

This is related to the consumption concept of Americans. As long as the money in their hands allows, they will eat the best, not the cheapest.

When Qin Shiou went downstairs, he saw a few people dressed as tourists watching seafood under the guidance of a shopping guide. Butler introduced to him: "We are mainly engaged in the business of high-end restaurants and hotels, and most of the scattered buyers are middle-class people. , they are the second echelon of customers.”

Miami has a strong spending power. Before leaving, Qin Shiou asked the toll collector how much the turnover was today.

The toll collector said: "415,000 US dollars, BOSS."

According to Butler, the staff in the store knew that this young man of Chinese descent was their big boss.

Qin Shiou sighed, "It's really scary!"

Butler was not satisfied, and said, "What's the point of this? It's very common for a large hotel to purchase 20,000 yuan of seafood a day, which just means that we have done business with 20 hotels. Miami's high-end restaurants and hotels How many in total? More than two hundred! We only made one-tenth of them.”

After driving out of Ant Street, Qin Shiou began to see the style of Miami, which is known as one of the top ten tourist cities in the world.

He thought he was going to see beach beauties, wine and luxury cars, but what he saw was a series of old houses.

The wooden door frames deformed due to years of disrepair, the dilapidated steps in front of the door that exposed the bricks inside, and the walls covered with messy graffiti, many children and teenagers in simple clothes were cheering and playing with basketballs and rugby balls. Although the urban area outside Ant Street is full of vitality. But it is a bit old.

"This is not a slum yet. It seems that you have misunderstood Miami." Butler took control of the steering wheel and teased Qin Shiou. He read his inner thoughts from the expressions of his partners.

Qin Shiou shrugged and said, "Yes,

Man, I thought Miami was only about tall buildings. "

Butler laughed loudly: "Where there is sunshine, there are shadows. There is no city in the United States, only high-rise buildings but no slums. This is especially true in cities that are richer and more luxurious."

Later, Butler introduced to Qin Shiou. This urban area is called Ant City, which is the old town of Miami. For people who live near the sea, seafood is the worst food, so Ant Street used to be a business for low-level people.

With the economic take-off and the development of tourism in Miami, there are more tourists, and the status of Ant Avenue has only risen. Unfortunately, this is not of great help to Ant City.

Indeed, Qin Shiou took a closer look. If you look at many of the houses here in terms of their appearance and structure or the size of the land they occupy. It is still possible to capture traces of their former glory, because although these houses are dilapidated, they occupy a large area and have a strong sense of European and American architecture in appearance.

What Qin Shiou is curious about is why there is no developer to build a CBD or develop residential quarters in such a large old city?

Butler laughed and said, "Who dares to come? Do you know what the police station here is equipped with? Lightning-proof armored vehicles! At night, you will know how chaotic it is. The gunshots sound like firecrackers. We have dozens of fast guns hidden in our shop." .Did you notice that the shop assistants I recruited are all rebellious young men?"

"I noticed, I thought you were featured."

"No, it's not special. They are all good fighters, and many of them were retreated from the troops just now. Only they can deter the villains around them."

Qin Shiou didn't understand, "Then why did you choose the store here?"

Soon he understood, as the car turned a corner, a small pier appeared in his vision, and the car drove onto Linhai Avenue.

"It's the most convenient place to deliver seafood. In addition, Ant Avenue has been glorious for two hundred years. Tourists from all over the world know that when they come to Miami to eat seafood, they go to Ant Avenue. So how can we not take advantage of this opportunity? Most importantly, here The tax is low, haha, we can save 40% of the tax by opening a seafood shop here!"

Butler laughed again. The Miami government really wanted to develop Ant City, but it was too chaotic, and it was dominated by immigrants, who had a strong belief in resistance to the government.

Therefore, the Miami city government wants to develop the urban area in a subtle way. They provide various benefits to attract companies and factories to enter, and let the urban area grow by itself.

From the current point of view, this trick is somewhat effective, at least the roads in the urban area have become tidy.

Driving, Butler said: "In Miami, dining is the ultimate way to understand and experience the different styles of the city. Come, let me take you to experience it slowly. This meal may last a long time, so, my buddy , you have to be patient."

Qin Shiou smiled and said, "Then you don't have to worry, I'm just patient."

This meal was really long enough, butler first took Qin Shiou into a park, located in Massimo Gomez Park in Little Havana, he ordered two cups of Cuban coffee, sat by the flower bed and drank coffee while admiring the sunset.

"This is afternoon tea, man, this is not dinner." Butler laughed.

Qin Shiou raised his coffee cup and gestured to him: "Good coffee, great afternoon tea."

There is a small open-air restaurant called Juan's Restaurant next to the park. Butler beckoned the waiter to come over and ordered a boneless Long Island roast duck and roast rabbit with red oil and sherry wine. This was the meal for afternoon tea.

Qin Shiou laughed and said that he always thought afternoon tea would go with dessert, but he didn't expect it to go with barbecue, so Butler asked him to try it.

The next two exquisite barbecues were served. They were Spanish style. The fat was roasted, and it tasted not greasy at all, so it was really good with coffee.

During the period, Qin Shiou called the fishermen. These guys were already awake, but they went to a strip-dancing bar to drink beer. When they answered the phone, they all yelled and seemed to be enjoying themselves.

In this way, Qin Shiou didn't ask them to come over for dinner, he knew that these guys didn't have time to eat tonight. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
