From the time the "sea cucumbers" handed in the sea cucumbers to collect the banknotes, to the completion of the "meeting", the whole process did not take more than an hour. But after the meeting, everyone's mental outlook was completely different.

An hour ago, they were all sad faces, and when they came out of the house of the "old swordfish", they sighed that not only were they all gone, but they were all excited with a lively face.

The "general" couldn't help but slap Hong Yanwu on the shoulder, and gave him four words: "Wolf ambition!"

In short, everyone regained their energy and ran back to the seaside on the southeast coast. And he is very down-to-earth and hardworking, and it takes twenty days to flutter.

This time, with the help of rubber boats, they managed to sweep seven more bays. It should be said that almost three-quarters of the sea on the southeast coast has been fished. But this time in the sea is a little different from before.

The first is to voluntarily reduce the number of employees.

"Fur Seal" stayed in the city, and he made a trip to the fish store at least once a day in the morning and afternoon. In addition, I have to run a "small market" in a different city every day.

The main task is naturally to pay attention to the changes in the price of sea cucumbers at any time, as soon as the official price is reduced again, or the private transaction of "sea bumpers" is so low that Hong Yanwu expects the price, he will immediately rush to the beach to report.

In fact, Hong Yanwu originally belonged to the "little hundred sons" for this job, and wanted him to avoid the hardships of hard work and stay in the city for a few days.

But I didn't expect this kid to cry, saying that he was not afraid of hardship, and he had to follow Hong Yanwu in life and death, and he gave up his comfortable life to the "sea dog".

So Hong Yanwu had no choice, so he could only take him there. Of course, there is also some unexpected warmth.

In addition, it was the 2,000 catties of "abalone shells" fished out this time, and they did not get them back to the city to exchange cash.

Not for anything else, the current sea cucumber price reduction has made people panic, and the "sea cucumbers" no longer dare to keep sea cucumbers. On the contrary, the price of "abalone shell" remains unchanged for a long time due to the purchase of the state, and the function of value preservation is highlighted.

At this time, making this kind of exchange is like exchanging gold for antiques in troubled times. Twenty catties of fresh abalone with meat can be exchanged for more than fifty light dried sea cucumbers per catty, and other "sea bumpers" are still rushing to change, which is very cost-effective.

Hong Yanwu simply decided to replace all the "abalone shells" and the "sea bumpers" on the southeast coast with light dried ginseng. It is cost-effective and labor-saving. What a beautiful thing!

So when they returned to Bincheng this time, the only seafood they brought back was sea cucumbers. Even with the fishing, a statistic is more than 600 catties of light dried ginseng.

At this time, the amount of inventory controlled by these "sea bumpers" has reached 3,000 catties, a full ton and a half!

On September 15, the first thing Hong Yanwu did after returning to Bincheng was to ask "Xiao Baizi" to find the "sea dog" and ask about the sea cucumber market in Bincheng.

Of course, because the "sea dog" never went to the beach to report, Hong Yanwu had a certain psychological preparation for the price.

After meeting, I listened to the "sea dog" again, and sure enough, there were some unexpected changes in the market.

It turned out that during this period of time, the price code of the "sea bumpers" who traded privately did not go down again, but rose a little, and now it is basically nine yuan and five or ten yuan a pound to go out.

In this way, the "general" is a little anxious, saying that it is better to start stocking up now, and it will be "National Day" in a few days, and it will be too late once the price rises again.

But Hong Yanwu pondered it, but he held a different opinion.

He feels that the price has risen a little now, but the magnitude is not large, perhaps because the "National Day" is coming, and the increased demand of the people has eliminated a certain fear of the market.

But on the other hand, the supply of aquatic products stores is quite sufficient, far from the point where the stock is exhausted, and Vice President Zhou is still able to maintain his orders.

If you want to follow the way officialdom considers it, if you can't get it right, this old man is holding back all his energy to spend all his energy on the "Eleventh Gift". Then when the price is lowered again, how big the impact will be, and the people will not have to praise him desperately!

What's more, after October is the real peak season for sea cucumber fishing, and the new output can only be seen at that time, so you might as well wait and see how to harvest sea cucumbers.

As soon as he heard this, the "general" was also down-to-earth.

He pondered again, in fact, it didn't matter if the price really went up, they wouldn't be worse than the difference of one or two dollars anyway. That way it's more down-to-earth, and you can sell sea cucumbers as usual.

In this way, before the arrival of the National Day, Hong Yanwu just paid attention to the market movements.

He didn't let the "sea cucumbers" collect sea cucumbers, and he didn't sell them himself. In order to let everyone have a good holiday, they didn't even organize everyone to "touch the sea" again, but completely rested.

As for the family in the capital, he didn't dare to send money because he was afraid that his mother would think wildly. I just went to my home and mailed some dried sea cucumbers, dried abalone, dried prawns and other seafood goods, hoping to let the family have a good holiday.

In addition, he took advantage of Sunday to go to the Bincheng Post and Telecommunications Bureau with Chen Liquan to make a long-distance call to the capital and asked about the situation at home.

To say that it was really a difficult thing to make a phone call these days, he couldn't get through several times at first. Later, I finally got through, but after waiting for ten minutes, at the other end of the capital, Qiuzi's mother, who was in charge of watching the public phone, called Wang Yunlin.

But he never expected that he had just asked about his father's illness, his mother's health and his second brother's preparation for the college entrance examination, and before he could report to his side, the phone was dropped, and then he couldn't get through anymore.

He tried ten times, but then he couldn't stand the eyes of the other waiting customers behind him, so he had to give up.

But then again, although the starting point is very good, Hong Yanwu wants everyone to have a "National Day" without work, but there is a situation he didn't expect.

Because in this year, September 27 is the "Mid-Autumn Festival", and it is so close to the "National Day", which stimulates the nerves of the general public even more, resulting in a large number of people who want to get married.

And as a "sea bumper", you can't rest even if you want to.

The closer the time is to the "Mid-Autumn Festival" and "National Day", the more people in the city flock to the beach as if they were desperate, walking, cycling, and even driving cars.

These people all regarded the "sea bumpers" as life-savers, and begged them to go to the sea to catch fresh seafood.

What are "sea cucumbers", "abalone", "scallops", "conch", "jellyfish", "black fish", "yellow croaker", "spiny pot", "oysters", "hairy sea red"...... As long as there is something in the sea, everything is wanted.

Of course, there are also many people who are climbing relationships and looking for acquaintances, and they directly ask for the home of "Hai Bangzi".

So not to mention the "generals", "three warriors", "shrimp crawlers" and other "celebrities" who live in the city, even the "old saury" and other "sea bumpers" who live in fishing villages have not been able to dodge.

This is indeed an extraordinary time, and this can be said to be the most proud time of the year for the "sea bumpers" and can make a windfall.

Because no matter whether it is a man or a woman, old or young, whether it is an official or a head, at this time they are all shorter than the "sea bumpers".

These people with special needs will rush to the "sea bumper" to pay a smile, say good things 8,880 times, hold high a handful of bills and are afraid that it is too little, almost kneeling and kowtowing.

This really made all the "sea bumpers" raise their eyebrows and live happily to death. As a result, many of them often deliberately talk nonsense with these people and make things difficult.

"It's not easy to do, the wind and waves have been too big recently, and the Dragon King won't let us do it......"

Or, "It's so cold underwater, marry for you, I don't have to freeze my life, then I won't be able to marry a daughter-in-law......"

And then there's the idea, "I'm glad you get married, but I can't find ......a partner!"

These grinning and strange words will almost always torture these poor city people to tears. Some stinky boys have the addiction to test each other's patience and take the opportunity to satisfy their vanity.

Of course, it is only when the people in the city flatter the "sea bumpers" that they willingly go to the sea to tie up their employer's wedding banquet and look for it under the icy sea with a sigh of relief.

Therefore, this involves the issue of the principles of life and the likes and dislikes of temperament.

Most of the sea bumpers naturally agree to whoever offers the highest price. There are also those who see who has been pestered the longest, and they will agree to whomever they want.

Others are afraid that beautiful women will come to beg. Especially the bride who is about to get married, if she softly speaks a little cigarette, her bones will be soft.

Then without hesitation, he jumped into the sea, and plunged into the water one after another, as if they were going to marry him.

After going ashore, even if you are tired like a dog that has lost your strength, you will walk on the beach with your chest held high and with heroic steps.

If that woman will come to the trouble and smile sweetly a few times, it will have to cost this kid's life, and if she can't do it, she can take the initiative to reduce the price and make it cheaper.

This kind of person actually knows his own faults, but will never correct them.

Of course, I will figure it out afterwards, and scold myself for being stupid and falling for the fox spirit. But next time, he would still be dizzy.

In the words of "Hai Bangzi", it is called "the snake is out of cure".

However, these "sea bumpers" who are with Hong Yanwu are not very different, their choices do not look at money or women, on the contrary, they are very kind and affectionate. As long as neighbors, relatives and friends personally entrust them to come to the door, they will basically readily agree.

And there is one more "old knife fish", and he especially can't see the old man embarrassed.

Whether it is the old man or the old lady begging him, especially the peers who have a little sad on their faces. Needless to say, he will comfort them and go into the water tightly.

Of course, if there is a thin girl, a thin girl like his own daughter, the "old knifefish" will be even more emotional, and he will not refuse.

The ideological realm of the "general" is higher.

He is afraid of meeting poor families who are in financial distress, and even more afraid of meeting two people whose marriage is not supported by their parents for various reasons.

Because although these people can't afford to make any money, they will always connect him with similar life experiences.

As a result, the next work of the "old swordfish" and the "general" is often the lowest paid of all the "sea bumpers".

Speaking of which, Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan have no taboos, but they can't get rid of their buddies.

After knowing that "Old Knifefish" and "General" were a little embarrassed that they couldn't cope with, these two boys took the initiative to give up their bodies and promised to accompany them to "touch the sea".

In this way, this "National Day", everyone in this small collective, still hasn't been able to rest.

See you in the sea again!
