Chapter 426: Unscrupulous Merchant
I couldn't stop thanking them. I also explained what happened to me, their family is good, old Cruise brought me some bamboo tubes that Mo Mo Tingting and I made, that was indeed what I made, and I sat on the ground at once. "Thank you, Uncle Cruise, thank you! I can't go back
Let me do something for you! "That's the way it should be!" Lisa smiled and helped me up from the ground. "But when your body recovers, my brother still lacks an assistant at the beginning of spring, I hope you can go over!" I looked at Lisa in amazement.
"This time, after the hurricane, we caught a lot of fish, and we will definitely sell it for a good price, and at that time, we are ready to buy another one
Boat, you can work with my brother! I nodded, "Would you like to go to the fishing ground with Bell to sell fish?" Seeing my lost look, Cruise interjected, although it was an inquiring tone, but the old Cruise was full of a tone that could not be refused, "Can you go?" "Old Cruise is a tough guy," Bell looked at me suspiciously, "Of course, I got up from the ground, and my ribs still ached, albeit reluctantly. "Father,
His injuries have not healed yet, so how can he let the guests work? "Lisa is a little angry." No, he would have made a good fisherman! Cruise looked at me, "I don't have a bad eye!" ”
So Bell and I spent a few coins, which were the currency in circulation, and were supposed to be made from the bones of some kind of animal. Rented a carriage, the carriage was specially made, and a container was made of special cloth to hold live fish, and Bell said that the person we were going to see was an old fritter from a fishing farm, and the bargaining price was particularly ruthless, but he had a unique vision, and he was a meal
The owner of the shop is also a regular customer of Old Cruise. The smell of fish in the fishing ground was very strong, and we were still five hundred meters away from the fishing ground, and there was a rush of fish, and when I got out of the carriage, Bell stopped me. "Don't worry, there's still some way to go! Do you want to go to the fishing grounds? It was in Bell's good-natured laughter that I saw the gate of the fishing ground, and it was really far away, on the fishing ground, Old Cruise
Have your own stall. Bell pointed out to me that it was in the best position to go in and see it. Bell told me that his father, Cruise Sr., was a man with forty years of fishing experience, and he had a very high status in the fishing grounds, and all the people in the fishing grounds would greet him. Naturally, he was in the best position, and the carriage drove past the fish stalls, and behind the stalls were artificially built stone ramparts
It's a pity that there is no electricity, and the oxygen is not enough, so the people who watch the stalls are also responsible for changing the water, on this island, there are no electric lights, but there are watches. It takes about two hours to change the water. Almost every booth will have someone greet Bell. "Good morning, Bell!" "Hello, Bell......" I believe this is the industry's affirmation of Cruise Sr. Someone also watched
When it came to me, Bell smiled modestly when I was asked, "He's my assistant!" Call? He looked at me. Without hesitation, I said, "Bruce Lee!" "Bruce Lee, they shouldn't know each other." For example, a person from the East, more than ten years ago, there was one. ”…… Listening to their conversation, I felt doubts. "Why doesn't anyone leave the island, I mean get out of here
countries like other islands to explore? I asked Bell, and he just shook his head, "A hundred years ago, or rather, hundreds of years ago, our country sent many ships to explore the world, but the result was that no one, not a single ship ever came back, our king used to support this kind of activity, but so many ships, the cost of building is too much, the cost is too much."
Big, but the kings did not give up, I have to say, our country was torn apart by several activities, and it took fifty years for the situation to improve. The king forbade him to go out, and it got a little better! "Isn't there anybody coming here?" Except for me! ”
"Actually, there is another type of people who can come, and that is pirates, they come every day, but they don't steal or rob, they just make a deal for us, and they want us to dig up some yellow metal things, and we just need to complete the amount they set."
I probably know what makes pirates nostalgic on this island, and it's gold, yellow gold. "Pirates, they don't know what means to get through this island and the outside world." Discuss some details of the fishing ground with Bell, he swims freely, and does not shy away from it, the ability is in front of you, the rules that everyone knows, and it is a person
Isn't it diligent and hardworking. This is important, so Bell is not shy about speaking out. We stayed at the fishery for more than an hour, and other traders were already coming to buy and sell the fish. I have to say that some businessmen are very shrewd, they look at the fish, and then negotiate the price, their vision has been trained, and their eloquence in fooling people is not a vain effort. Many fishmongers were stunned
I was stunned. Then I watched my fish being sold at a low price. Bell changed the water in the pool, and I sat next to the fish stall, the strong smell of blood made my internal organs uncomfortable and a little sick to my stomach, but I still tried to look at the stall. Bell told me that he hung a sign on the fish stall that the goods were ordered, and of course, this was also a kind of propaganda
Being able to have regular customers means that their quality is no problem, and their character is also trustworthy. After waiting a little longer, I saw a few more horses at the gate of the fishing ground, and the neighing of horses. I frowned, did this person come to make such a big fuss? Bell turned his head to look at it, then turned his head again. "This is Jiamusi, the landowner on our side,
He wants to contract the fishing ground here, but the fishing ground is the lifeblood of the fishermen, how can he get rid of it easily, he uses some indiscriminate means, you look at this! As soon as Bell finished speaking, a fat old man came over, and it was forbidden to ride horses in the fish market, which was the most basic respect for the market, and it seemed that he did not. He first passed by our booth: "Bell, your daddy, where's the Cruiser?" How
Passed away? "Thanks to you, his old man is still doing well!" Bell didn't have the heart to talk to him. "Oh, and got a new assistant, didn't you? It's a waste, your father's dead ghost just doesn't know how to be flexible, you are the best fisherman in our village, follow me, I can triple your current income! Jiamusi solemnly promised. Thank you for your kindness, I am now
It's good to work at home! "Hmph, I don't know what to do, you don't sell your fish today? I'm still waiting for that old immortal, and I'm going to sell your fish cheaply! "Jiamusi walked in front of us, and he only looked at me from beginning to end, I am an insignificant foreigner.
"Old guy, bad guys don't live long!" Bell cursed, and it was the first time I'd heard sarcasm from his mouth. He walked to another stall and played with another vendor, and behind him, four or five idle men with cigarette rolls in their mouths and smoke in their nostrils. It should be a house slave raised by Jiamusi, no doubt. They carry a fire gun around their waists, the kind of guns that need to be filled*, I don't know how many years they have been eliminated, the waists of horses, and swords. Just like the knights of the Middle Ages.
But their conduct was not as noble as that of a knight.
