Due to the weather, there has been no supply of live crabs since the 15th, and these dead crabs are still available. Provided by the Agricultural Website Directory: At 4 PM on December 19th, I visited the Xinhai Vegetable Market in Pingyangpu, Putuo. At a seafood stall in the market, six large basins for holding crabs were displayed, with only a few dead crabs remaining inside. The vendor said that due to the climate, there has been no supply of live crabs since the 15th. These dead crabs were still "grabbed" from the aquatic products city in the morning. Once they're sold out, there will be no more stock. Normally priced at 8 yuan per pound, they are now being sold for 10 yuan per pound, an increase of 2 yuan per pound. A fish seller pointed to the mackerel in front of him and said that these mackerels, each weighing less than two taels, normally cost 12 yuan per pound, but recently the wholesale price has risen, so they are now selling for 15 yuan per pound.

"Frozen cuttlefish weighing over four liang is now 18 yuan per pound, about 3 yuan per pound more expensive than last week." Careful housewives can easily notice that due to strong winds and snowy weather, the prices of seafood in the island's markets have increased, but fortunately, the rise is not too significant.

Mr. Lu, an operator dealing in frozen seafood at the Zhoushan International Aquatic Products City, told reporters that low temperatures don't greatly affect production ships going out to sea for fishing, but the strong winds of 8-10 levels on the sea surface force these ships to return to port to take shelter from the wind. In the past two days, there has been no transaction of live fresh seafood at the wharf, only frozen seafood. "When the wind calms down tomorrow, all production ships will resume their voyages, and live seafood like the wealthy shrimp will be transported back the same day, stabilizing the seafood prices."

"Today, there are only four trawl frozen ships unloading cargo at the wharf." An official from the aquatic products city introduced that these four ships returned to port before the strong winds arrived. To sell their frozen seafood at a better price, the captains did not rush to sell the goods immediately, but waited until now. "The wholesale price of a one-and-a-half-pound croaker was 7 yuan per pound, and it has now risen to 10 yuan per pound."
