Chapter 685 - Bought a basket of shrimp
"Brother, aren't you going to the city?" Zhuang Youbin's younger brother Zhuang Youhai walked over and asked.
"I'll take a few guests to the mountain."
"Guest?" Zhuang Youhai looked back at Ye Qing and his party.
"Hey, you're a crayfish?" Ye Qing looked at the string of crayfish tied with saltwater grass in Zhuang Youhai's hand with some surprise.
"Mrs. Qian, this is not a crayfish, the lobster is in the sea, this thing grows in a pond, we call it a red crayworm here!" Zhuang Youbin was stunned and quickly smiled.
"That's right! This is not shrimp! Zhuang Youhai smiled and said: "This thing, if you chop up the duck, you like to eat it." ”
"Maybe it's called a different way, I remember some people also called it crayfish, or crayfish, can you ask where you caught it from?" Ye Qing asked.
"It's in the pond over there!" Zhuang Youhai pointed casually.
"Then can you grab some more and sell them to me, I'll give you ten dollars a pound!" Ye Qing thought about it, took out a small string of money and put it in front of Zhuang Youhai.
"Mmmm, sister, you wait, I'll call someone to catch it right away." Zhuang Youhai quickly took the money and ran away, and his brother didn't have time to stop it.
"This ......," Zhuang Youbin smiled bitterly.
Qian Junbao and Qian Duoduo saw Ye Qing buying this thing, but they just smiled lightly.
Qian Duoduo was no longer surprised, but Qian Junbao understood why Ye Qing bought this thing.
"Miss, what are you buying this for?" Dongqu asked in surprise at some point.
"It works." Ye Qing didn't explain too much, neither in Chong'an nor in Chongyang, she didn't see crayfish, so she saw this thing today and planned to breed some in the space pond.
For the rest, make it into a snack in the evening and let them taste it, and they will know what it is.
However, some people are not suitable for eating crayfish, or eating crayfish will be uncomfortable, and she naturally has a way to solve this problem by cooking it herself.
But not everyone can solve this problem when they make this thing and eat it, so Ye Qing doesn't plan to promote this thing now.
In less than half an hour, Ye Qing and Zhuang Youbin negotiated the cooperation of planting rubber trees, and Ye Qing invested 300 taels of silver to buy dozens of acres of rubber trees and land on this mountain field.
And let the dealer be responsible for expanding the planting, and give his family ten taels of silver for every additional acre of rubber forest.
And in a few days, she will send ten helpers here to be responsible for planting trees and managing them.
Zhuang Youbin thought that he could get money without any labor from his family, so he naturally agreed very happily.
But this matter still needs his father's consent, so he decided to invite Ye Qing and his party to their house at noon.
Ye Qing also agreed.
At this time, Zhuang Youhai ran over with a fish basket, "Brother, I've done a good job, it's enough for a basket, is it enough?" ”
Ye Qing also leaned over and glanced at it, nodded and said, "Enough, enough!" ”
"Is it really enough? There are a lot of snails, do you want to buy them? ”
"Tianluo, no need!" Ye Qing shook his head, the snail is not valuable, the main thing is that it can't be sold for space gold coins, and now that it's caught, it can't be eaten, and that thing has to be raised for two days to spit mud.
"Let's go back, give me the basket, you go back and take a shower and change your clothes, otherwise my mother will see you and say something." Zhuang Youbin said to his younger brother.
"Mother won't say, I've made so much money." After Zhuang Youhai finished speaking, he ran home.
"Mr. Qian, Mrs. Qian, please come here." Zhuang showed them the way with a guest spirit.
The dealer's house is on a slope in the center of the island, the area is quite large, the yard is planted with triangular plums all around, this season is also very gorgeous, a large string of purple red and purple, very beautiful.
Zhuang Laohan was building a pigsty, Zhuang Aunt helped him pick up the mud, seeing that the pigsty was almost ready, she said: "Old man, our pigsty is ready, you will go to my eldest brother's house in the afternoon to catch four little pigs!" ”
"Catch your big brother's piglet? What if he asks me to borrow money then? The last time he came to our house, he asked to borrow a hundred taels of silver, but I didn't lend it to him, and he scolded me.
It's all stiff, and now I'm going to the door again, and I can't stand it when he speaks again. ”
"If you don't catch my eldest brother's piglet, my mother will definitely scold me to death in the future!" Zhuang Hu said.
"If you don't go, you can't go, if you go, he will definitely want me to lend him money in life or death, how can our family lend him a hundred taels.
Besides, what he borrowed money for, you know. That is the bottomless pit, a few years ago borrowed twenty taels of silver from us, and now one has not been repaid, not to mention, he has been addicted to gambling over the years, and he has lost his mind.
Lending him money will only hurt him. Zhuang Laohan waved his hand.
"Haizi Dad, if you don't go, we will buy someone else's piglet, then the relationship between me and my brother will be completely broken, and my mother will not make trouble for me when I go back?" Zhuang Hu said with a bitter face.
"Then you can go to your mother to help catch the pig and come back, if you don't have the strength, just let Youbin pick it back."
I'm not going anyway. Zhuang Laohan still refused.
"I ......" she was about to say something, but when she heard her son's voice calling her, she hurriedly answered.
"Kids, they're back, you go to the kitchen to cook, I'm enough for me here." Zhuang Laohan waved his hand.
Zhuang Hu walked towards the kitchen sullenly, and saw the eldest son Youbin coming over with four people.
"Youbin, you're back? They are ......"
"Mother, this is a guest who came to our house to buy trees. Mother, go to the street and buy some good food and come back.
Oh, you'd better call Daddy over and entertain me first. Zhuang Youbin said with a smile.
"Buying a tree? What tree to buy? ”
"Go, you'll know when you come back."
"I've seen Aunt Zhuang, I'm bothered!" Qian Junbao took the initiative to greet her.
Zhuang Hushi hurriedly smiled, "Don't bother, I'll go grocery shopping." ”
When she left, Ye Qing said to Zhuang Youbin, "Where is your kitchen?" I'm going to get the crayfish to work on first. ”
"There's a blue-curtained door just up ahead." Zhuang Youbin pointed.
"Well, give me the crayfish." Ye Qing stretched out his hand.
"Dongqu, go help Madame." Qian Junbao commanded.
Ye Qing shook his head and said, "No need, I can do it alone, she didn't touch this thing, but licked me for trouble." ”
Dongqu glanced back at Qian Junbao and saw that he nodded, so he stood behind Qian Duoduo.
Ye Qing entered the banker's kitchen alone and found a bucket and a large bowl.
She first carried a bucket of water, cleaned the crayfish twice, looked at the belly of the crayfish, and found that the ancient crayfish was still relatively clean, but she still couldn't be careless.
After all, crayfish like to eat some dirty things, and there are some harmful substances in the body of crayfish, so they have to find a way to clean up.
