Fish Sold For N1.1 Billion In Japan’s New Year Tuna Auction by goldcoinhub: 7:00am On Jan 06, 2019 |
The owner of a Japanese sushi restaurant chain on Saturday set a record by paying more than $3 million for a bluefin tuna in the New Year tuna auction at Tokyo’s new fish market. Kiyoshi Kimura, who owns the Sushizanmai chain, paid 333.6 million yen (£2.5 million) for the 278-kg (613-lb) fish caught off the coast of northern Japan’s Aomori prefecture, or double what he had paid six years ago, reports Telegraph UK. “The tuna looks so tasty and very fresh, but I think I did too much,” Kimura told reporters outside the market later. “I expected it would be between 30 million and 50 million yen, or 60 million yen at the highest, but it ended up five times more.” Saturday’s event was the first New Year auction of the Toyosu market, after the famed Tsukiji fish market shut last year to provide temporary parking for the Tokyo 2020 Summer Olympics. Kimura had held the record for top price paid for a single fish at the new year’s auction for six straight years until 2017. But last year, the owner of a different fish restaurant chain paid the highest price. After the auction, the fish was taken to one of Sushizanmai’s branches located in the old market of Tsukiji. Tuna is prized around the world for its use in sushi, but experts warn growing demand has made it an endangered species. https://lailasnews.com/tuna-fish-sells-for-n1-1billion-in-japans-new-year-tuna-auction/ 4 Likes 1 Share

Poverty is a sin. I have come to realize that it's only the rich that go out of their way to do crazy things. A poor man can never buy a fish for such amount if it can't feed his family for an eternity or if at the end of the day he slices it up and he doesn't find money in it. Rich people do crazy things for fun. I cursed poverty 25 times the day I saw my neighbour using Gilette shaving stick to shave the hair from the goat he bought for Christmas. 314 Likes 31 Shares |
