Chapter 6 Fishponds

To be honest, at first glance, Chen Jin saw that this fish pond was nothing special about other fish ponds.

Zhu Chengming has been in business for more than ten years, and he doesn't know what he wants to do when he brought himself to this fish pond.

There is not a single fish in sight in the empty pond, the pond is full of aquatic plants, and a few old turtles can occasionally be seen basking in the sun on the side.

"Uncle Zhu, this ...... What do you see?"

"Hehe, the landlord is in a hurry, Lao Zhang is here!" Zhu Chengming gave up his position, and Chen Jin saw a few woven bags not far away.

"Xizi, feed!" Lao Zhang didn't move, commanding his son!

"Okay!" Kiko happily ran over, it seemed that he didn't have much chance to feed.

Chen Jin followed, but before he got close to the woven bag, a sour smell came to his nose.

Covering his nose and saying to Zhang Xi, "Brother Xizi, what does this thing stink?"

Zhang Xi untied the rope at the mouth of the bag without any hesitation, and poured the contents of the bag into the small bucket next to him.

"It's all a baby, you look disgusting, it's actually much cleaner than the fertilizer sprinkled in the crops!"

When I rubbed it, it turned out to be rotting fish and shrimp and wriggling worms.

"This is feed?" Although Chen Jin had heard of it, he was quite shocked to see it with his own eyes!

"Don't believe it, it's been like this for thousands of years, the same as the vegetables and rice you eat!"

Kiko sprinkled feed all the way to the left.

The length of the fish pond is about 100 meters, and the width is more than 20 meters, so it is really hard to feed alone.

In just a few minutes, Chen Jin took a bag of rotten fish and shrimp, opened the bag, and walked in the opposite direction.

"Lao Zhu, this kid is a person who does big things!" Lao Zhang looked at Chen Jin and said.

"Brother Zhang, if it weren't for this child's hard life, I wouldn't buy that house, but I won't lose money buying this house!"

The two sat on the ridge and smoked cigarettes, watching Chen Jin and Zhang Xi feed.

"I said, the price can not rise again this year, I really want to get the dry goods stall, in a few days I will go to the Tieshan Temple to see, there are already people selling acacia flowers and local vegetables in the market. ”

"So anxious? Kiko wants to go out to work, I guess I can't be busy alone!"

"Xizi go out?well, it's okay to go out, you can catch fish for the rest of your life, and you can't delay the child anymore!"

"yes...... But this kid is Mune, I'm afraid of going out and being deceived!"

"Yes, it's a little, huh! I have an idea, but I need your cooperation!"

"What's the idea?"

"Don't worry, Brother Zhang, if this thing is done, I will kill two birds with one stone, and I will tell you......"

Zhang Xi watched Chen Jin come over from a distance and smiled innocently.

"Brother Xizi, I've finished feeding it over there, to be honest, I didn't expect that two bags of rotten fish and rotten shrimp would be done in such a big fish pond!"

Chen Jin is different from Zhang Xi, Zhang Xi is poured into a small bucket and splashed into the fish pond, while Chen Jin directly grabs it.

"No, you have to feed it three times, four times a day, about six to eight bags!" Zhang Xi said honestly.

"I'll rub it, when is it a head!" Chen Jin regretted it a little.

Not to mention the stench of this bag, the bugs inside are disgusting.

"That's what I told my dad, I'll go out to work in the summer, but my dad doesn't agree!"

After shaking the empty pockets, Zhang Xi sat by the fish pond and washed his hands.

"Brother Xizi, it's not as good as you think!"

Chen Jin learned Zhang Xi's movements, and also squatted down to wash his hands.

"Really, I've heard that it's not a problem to get a salary of thousands a month outside!"

"Fake, what business do I have to do if I am so high, Uncle Zhu must be lying to you!"

The two sat on the floor and chatted.

"Even if it's low, I can only watch TV at my relatives' house when I go out to pay New Year's greetings.

My younger brothers and sisters are still young, and I don't know the annual income of the family, but I can't eat meat a few times a year, and I'm bored here!"

Zhang Xi's eyes flashed with a strange light, it was a desire for freedom.

"Brother Xizi, I think it's very good here, it's okay to fish, there are not so many tricks in the city, write something in your spare time, and cultivate your sentiments!"

With his hands behind his back, Chen Jin felt a little emotional.

"You don't talk like a teenager, and besides, I haven't read a book, how can I write anything to cultivate my sentiments!"

When Zhang Xi said this, he was a little lonely.

"Haha, I'm sorry, I forgot your condition, in fact, it's nothing, it's not difficult to be literate in Chinese, it's good to be able to add, subtract, multiply and divide in mathematics, don't you know how to settle accounts?"

A person in his thirties comforts a teenage child, and Chen Jin is still sure.

"Well, my father is not my opponent, he is illiterate, he wants to learn some skills, and he doesn't want to fish for the rest of his life. ”

"That's simple, come to me when you have time, I'll teach you Hanyu Pinyin, and then give you a Xinhua dictionary, I can basically use it when I'm eight years old, what are you afraid of at the age of nineteen!"

"Really, I'll go into the city to look for you in a few days!"

"Hmm!"

The two teenagers made an agreement on the ridge.

Before he could say anything, Zhu Chengming on the other side shouted.

"Xiaojin, Xizi, you two come back, you have something to say!"

The two stood up and trotted all the way to Lao Zhang and Zhu Chengming.

"It's such a small entry, just now Lao Zhang and I discussed that if you have nothing to do recently, you can help with fishing here, come in the morning and go back in the evening, the salary, eighty yuan a day, what do you think?"

Zhu Chengming looked at Chen Jin seriously, and Lao Zhang kept nodding with a smile on the side.

Before Chen Jin could speak, Lao Zhang said: "That's it, Xizi is old and wants to go out to work.

As for me, I am also going to buy a house on the shore in the past few years, this fish pond may be the last year to dry, ready to be transferred,

If you are interested, come and help me for three months, and after three months, my fish pond will be transferred to the outside world.

When the time comes, if you think it's okay, just put it down, what do you think?"

Chen Jin's heart moved: "There is such a good thing?"

Not to mention the profit of this fish pond, in terms of cost alone, a few bags of rotten fish and shrimp a day are not worth a few dollars at all.

"Uh...... I have to think about it, first of all, I don't have the skills, and Uncle Zhu knows that I can't do anything alone. ”

came here by chance, but I didn't expect Lao Zhang to want to transfer the fish pond to himself, which was a bit beyond Chen Jin's understanding.

"It's okay, Xizi just wants to be independent, I'll ask him to help you, don't talk about the salary, how about three percent of the annual profit for the fish pond?"

Lao Zhang's words made Chen Jin's heart move again, although Xizi's personality is wooden, he is still very diligent in doing things!

Now unlike later generations, there are many fishermen, and the fish pond needs to be guarded!

Nowadays, the fish pond can be checked once a day to check the water quality and feed.

In fact, Lao Zhang is relatively industrious, and the people who usually contract the fish pond are not able to feed it once every two or three days!

"That'...... Or let me go back and think about it, Uncle Zhu knows, I am alone in my family, I have to think about everything, and I will answer you in three days, okay?"

Chen Jin had never encountered such a lucky thing in thirty years, and he couldn't help but be cautious!

Besides, if you dig out your old bottom at every turn, do you have to live a miserable life again?

People are poor and short-minded, but horses are thin and long-haired!

Now Chen Jin is such a mentality, he is careful to do anything without money!
