They would tell you that they're not willing to part with RM30 for just 1kg of fish.
However, this Japanese businessman had no problems parting with his money whatsoever for a fish.
In fact, he paid more than a million dollars for it!
'This is the best'
News agency AFP reported that Kiyoshi Kimura, a Japanese sushi businessman, paid 193 million Yen (RM7.26 million) to purchase a giant tuna!
Kimura, ‘nicknamed’ ‘Tuna King’, paid the whopping amount of money at the New Year's auction at Tokyo's main fish market to purchase a 276-kilogramme bluefin tuna, reportedly caught off the Aomori region in northern Japan.
"This is the best.
"Yes, this is expensive, isn't it? I want our customers to eat very tasty ones this year too," said the businessman, who runs a successful sushi restaurant chain.
According to the news agency, Kimura is known to pay big bucks for his fishes.
Last year, he reportedly paid a record USD$3.1 million (RM12.7 million) to win a 278-kilogramme tuna.
We guess his customers must be smacking their lips right about now.
