The fish maw of yellow croaker is said to be "as expensive as gold". More than a decade ago, someone in the town of Caocong, Cangnan County, caught a six-seven jin (Chinese unit of weight) yellow croaker and sold it for more than 100,000 yuan. The surrounding fishermen were all excited and suggested that "a six or seven jin yellow croaker could be sold for more than 100,000 yuan more than a decade ago, now with such high prices, a 30 jin one can at least be sold for 1 million yuan."
