Chapter 66 Loaches: Tell My Story

When Zhao Ziqiao walked out of the door covered in mud, he was holding a bottle full of loaches in his hand, and there was an extra string of loaches in his hand.

That's right, it's a bunch! He used a long weed through the mouth of the loach, and then out of the gills, and the loach hung from the weed like garlic hanging from the north.

Carrying a string of loaches, Zhao Ziqiao carried his shoes and walked barefoot to his aunt's house, the small goal he set was also completed, and he could have a good meal of loaches tonight.

"Ziqiao, what good things are you getting?" Zhao Ziqiao hadn't gone far when a voice came from behind him and asked.

Hearing the word 'again' in the words, Zhao Ziqiao also smiled bitterly, turned back to his neighbor Uncle Gao and said, "Catch some loaches." ”

Originally, Zhao Fugao also said hello as usual, thinking that Zhao Ziqiao was stringing some small fish, but he didn't look carefully, and when he heard Zhao Ziqiao say that it was a loach, Zhao Fugao trotted a few steps over.

As soon as he saw the string of loaches in Zhao Ziqiao's hand, he immediately felt that the few steps he ran were worth it.

"It's all so big, Ziqiao, where did you get it?" Zhao Fugao asked with some surprise after fiddling with the loaches hanging on the weeds.

At that time, the environment was not polluted, and the rice fields were all used in the farm fertilizer, and the straw would also leave some manure in the field, and the loaches in the field had more things to eat, so that they could grow up to be so big.

However, Zhao Fugao had this kind of loach when he was a child, but not all of them were so big, and the string in Zhao Ziqiao's hand was even richer than the loaches he had when he was a child.

"Hehe, there's a field near the place where I caught the fish, so I caught some there. As he spoke, Zhao Ziqiao took out the mineral water bottle in his hand.

Seeing that Zhao Ziqiao still had a bottle in his hand, Zhao Fugao moved his mind again and asked, "Ziqiao, do you sell what you have in your hand?"

If Zhao Ziqiao had a string of loaches in his hand, he would be really embarrassed to speak, but after seeing that he still had a bottle in his hand, he wanted to buy some and try it, he hadn't eaten such a big loach for many years.

Hearing Zhao Fugao's words, Zhao Ziqiao also smiled bitterly: "Uncle Gao, I'm sorry, this is what I want to take back and eat for myself, this loach is big, but the quantity is a little less, just this little thing, I'm really embarrassed to sell it!"

Zhao Fugao asked twice in a row, but he refused, and Zhao Ziqiao was a little embarrassed.

Zhao Fugao was a little pity, but what Zhao Ziqiao said, he can also understand, this thing looks really big, but in terms of numbers, there are really few pieces, and you can't let people cook it, half and half of it!

"If there are good things in the future, remember to get more, I'm waiting to buy them from you!"

Seeing that Zhao Fugao was not entangled, Zhao Ziqiao smiled and responded: "Uncle Gao, don't worry! If you can really get more, I will be the first to sell it to you, how about it?"

Zhao Fugao nodded, he still felt a little pity, what he wanted to eat was always difficult to eat!

After chatting with Zhao Ziqiao for a few more words, Zhao Fugao walked to the small shop in the village, he was going to watch someone play cards and go out.

Zhao Fugao watched people play cards in the village shop for more than half an hour, a person suddenly had something to go first, so he beckoned him to pick up, Zhao Fugao was fine anyway, just the card addiction came up, so he sat down to take over the position, and maintained the game.

As soon as a hand of cards was played, a person walked into the store to buy cigarettes, and when Zhao Fugao saw the man, he beckoned: "Fumin, how much is the loach you sell?"

Li Fumin, who was wearing a slightly yellowed T-shirt, heard someone ask him about the loach, so he turned his head, touched his freshly shaved flat head, and said with a smile: "Give you thirty yuan a catty, they are all from the village, and they don't bargain." Brother Fu Gao, how many pounds do you want?"

A few years ago, after his parents passed away, he lived directly in the village, doing odd jobs in the town, and selling some loaches as a sideline, basically the people in the village would look for him to buy loaches if they wanted to eat them, and few people would go to the market in the town to buy them.

"No, I'll ask. After hearing the price, Zhao Fugao directly stated that he would not buy it.

Li Fumin was also stunned, the price he gave was very fair, if he really took it to the market to sell, less than thirty-five yuan a catty, he would not make a move, how could he get to Zhao Fugao here, as if the price he gave was too high?

"No, Brother Fu Gao, what are you singing? I won't kill you, why don't you ask for a while and then there is no follow-up? I'm still waiting for you to help me finish it!" Li Fumin smiled and turned on the cigarette and asked half-jokingly.

Zhao Fugao said while drawing cards: "I ran into Ziqiao just now, he didn't know where to get some loaches back, didn't I see you? ”

Originally, it was just a very ordinary thing, but now that Zhao Ziqiao was involved, the store suddenly quieted down, and everyone looked at Zhao Fugao tacitly.

In the village, everyone knows that Zhao Ziqiao is very prosperous now, engaging in a unique business, making a few hundred yuan a day as if playing, and now that I heard that I got some loaches, everyone couldn't help but prick up their ears.

Li Fumin's eyes rolled around, and when he saw the situation in the store, he was slightly surprised, and said in a somewhat strange tone: "Ziqiao, why didn't that kid come to me to buy it? ”

Hearing Li Fumin's words, Zhao Fugao laughed, tapped the table with his fingers, and signaled that this hand was over. Then he said to Li Fumin: "People caught it themselves, why do they ask you to buy it?"

That's what I said. The look on Li Fumin's face was slightly embarrassed.

Everyone thought that Zhao Ziqiao had come up with some way to sell loaches again, but they didn't expect that he grabbed some loaches and went back to eat!

For a while, the shop began to be normal again! Although the rice in the paddy fields is still immature in large areas, the early-maturing rice in the village, which only makes one season, has already been harvested, and a few fields are empty, so if you want to eat loaches and don't want to buy them, you can go to the fields and catch them and eat a few meals, which is not a problem at all.

Seeing the store that had returned to normal, Li Fumin also adjusted his mood, and said with a smile: "Ziqiao, that guy just got some loaches to eat back, Brother Fu Gao, you don't need to ask me about it, right?"

Zhao Fugao couldn't afford the opponent's cards, so he could only eliminate two cards, and when he heard Li Fumin's words, he said with a smile: "If it is a normal loach, I will ask you specifically? ”

"Hehe, Brother Fu Gao, what you said is as if the loach caught by Zhao Ziqiao can have two extra legs. One of the people playing cards at the same table listened to Zhao Fugao's words, and immediately answered.

Loaches all look the same, what can be different?

Li Fumin also nodded in agreement, he is a loach seller, whether it is sold by himself or in the market, it is nothing more than a difference between wild and farmed, and in other aspects, at most it is just a matter of size!

How do you feel that in Zhao Fugao's mouth, the loaches he caught are loaches, and the loaches caught by Zhao Ziqiao are not loaches?

"Long legs don't have long legs, but other people's catch that loach is big!" Zhao Fugao could also hear the ridicule of their group, but he was not angry, and he was not angry.

"Big?" Li Fumin smiled and found a chair to sit down, but he was a little interested, so he asked Zhao Fugao, "Brother Fugao, what is the Dafa?"

"Wait a minute!" Zhao Fu's hand in this game of cards just hit the critical time, without looking back to Li Fumin said, then crackled out of the card, for a while, no one can stop it.

When the last two cards were played out of his hand, he and the other man won the game, and he smiled and put the money in his pocket, and then said, "Loach with a big thumb." ”

Zhao Fugao said and stretched out his hand to gesture, and the people at the same table saw Zhao Fugao gesture with his hand, and also postponed the action of collecting and shuffling the cards, and became a little curious.

A thumb-sized loach is really big!

Others think that what Zhao Fugao said is very exciting, but Li Fumin smiled slightly, he is in this business, thumb-sized loaches, he can catch a few from time to time, especially when the loaches are about to lay eggs, thumb-sized loaches are easier to catch.

"It's not too big! If you really have to have a loach the size of two fingers, then it's called big!" Li Fumin said and gestured with his hand, what he said was not something out of thin air, just because he was selling loaches, so he went to find some information to see, there is a kind of Taiwanese loach that can grow to the size he said, the length can basically reach 25cm, compared with ordinary loaches, this variety of loaches is simply a giant!

"Is there really such a big loach?" Hearing Li Fumin's words, someone immediately asked, is a loach with two fingers thick still called a loach?

Li Fumin raised his head, flicked his fingers off the cigarette ash, and said quite authoritatively: "Of course there is! When I saw the picture on the Internet, I was so startled, I thought that the man had caught a black fish in his hand! You must know that the loach is big, almost half the size of a palm, and the long one has to be held with two hands, and it really 1 his uncle!"

Li Fumin's words of scolding and boasting can get the recognition of the people in the village, especially when he compares the huge loach with the black fish, almost everyone subconsciously looks at the palm of their hand, and immediately has an intuitive feeling in their hearts.

The black fish, what it looks like, everyone has seen it, and everyone has eaten it, the kind of big loach in Li Fumin's mouth, basically no one has seen it, let alone eaten it, but as long as the corresponding little black fish is compared, everyone has an urge to gasp in their hearts.

Two loaches, you should be able to make a dish, right?
