Chapter 553: Accident at the entrance of the station
The smell of dried fish is strong, fishy and salty, and the smell is very unique, and passers-by all stop in their tracks, shrug their noses, and then smell towards the source of the smell, only to find that there is a bag of salted dried fish.
Some people who are not interested stick out their heads and glance at them and leave directly, while others unceremoniously reach out and look through them.
Ye Yaodong frowned, are these people's hands clean? Flip like this?
I thought I would just sit on the ground for a while, and the mouth would simply not pierce, but I would have to get up and put the bag in after a while.
And he also thought about whether he could attract some people around him, and then take out a few catties, reduce the weight, and save a lot of money to pick it up, a few catties less is a few catties, and the passenger flow at the station is also large.
Just when he wanted to tell these people not to buy and not to touch, someone asked out loud.
"Hey, this dried fish is yours, right? Do you want to sell it? Did you dry it at home? ”
"How do you sell it?"
"Is the fish fresh?"
"Yes, it's dried at home, the fish are all caught at sea by themselves, they are all killed alive, absolutely fresh, you can smell and see it, and the smell is different if it is not fresh, but it is not fragrant."
"Dried toad fish is four cents and five cents, and dried miscellaneous fish is one pound and four cents, these fish have to be ten catties to produce one or two catties, fresh wholesale costs five cents a catty, and zero sales are seven or eight cents, I don't make money at all, but because the fish I caught at home have not gone through several fishmongers, so they are sold cheaply."
Ye Yaodong saw that someone was interested in asking, so he quickly stood up and spat and explained, saying true or false things to sell.
And Father Ye also stood up and laughed on the side, he couldn't speak Mandarin, he could only listen.
Some of these questioners don't speak Mandarin, and Ye Yaodong can barely understand the city dialect used.
It's the same as Ling Chen, it's all chickens and ducks, anyway, the Mandarin he speaks, everyone can understand it.
Some people shook their heads when they heard the price and left, while others nodded their heads while listening.
Most people are familiar with these common fish, and they also think that the price is cheap, after all, a lot of fresh fish cost five or six cents a catty, and there are fewer fishing boats in winter, and the goods are less, more expensive, buy some dried fish and put it at home, and eat it slowly.
Everyone gathered there, they didn't know each other, but it didn't prevent them from discussing, and the people who were excited said that it was not expensive, it was okay, and it would be fresh or something.
Then one person said that he wanted to weigh five catties, and the rest of the interested people also shouted for a few catties.
His small business of dried fish suddenly opened up the sales situation again, but it is a pity that there is no small scale, which is his big mistake and failure today.
However, when he sat down before, he noticed that there was a scale in the basket next to him, but he didn't need to borrow it.
"I have a scale here, use mine, I'll weigh first, I'll weigh first...... Give me the scales first, I have the scales......"
The person in the crowd who wanted to buy dried fish happened to have a scale, and that person also came to the market to sell things with a burden, and when he went back, he happened to pass by and saw his dried fish, and it was logical to borrow someone's scale in an instant.
Ye Yaodong was also very kind to weigh him, and then gave two more pieces of dried eel, and the person who bought it was also very happy and accepted it happily.
After a person took the dried fish with the rope from Ye's father's hand, the crowd began to shout again, this one costs two, and the other costs five catties, Ye Yaodong suddenly became in a hurry, and his mouth kept reassuring.
"It's all there, don't worry, there's 100 pounds here, everyone has ......"
"Take your time one by one, don't be in a hurry, prepare the money first, give the fish with one hand and the money with the other......"
Chinese people like to join in the fun, see where people gather, they also like to come over to take a look, take a look, just a few minutes, father and son have already surrounded a bunch of people watching the excitement, and there are people on tiptoe behind to look this way.
Those who couldn't see it looked at the hands of the people who came out with the dried fish, touched and smelled them, asked a few words about the price, and thought it was okay, so they immediately squeezed in with the banknotes and wanted to buy them.
The father and son were actually sweating in the cold weather, and they were all holding banknotes in their hands, which looked much more popular than setting up a stall at the entrance of the market, the two of them were happy and anxious, and Father Ye was afraid that people would not be able to wait and leave.
And Ye Yaodong is worried that there are so many people around here, if he attracts all the ruffians and gangsters, it will be troublesome, he doesn't want to cause trouble, this is in other people's realms, but he has to shrink, his fists are invincible with four hands, and the station is a chaotic place.
I just don't know if the crackdown in the city is strong, and whether there are many ruffians and hooligans?
While he was worried, he was selling goods, wishing that he would grow three heads and six arms.
Father Ye was also worried that there were many people, there were thieves hiding around him, and all the money he received was pinched in his hands, and he didn't dare to put it in his pocket, after all, Dongzi had just been stolen more than a piece, and he still had to remember the lessons of the past.
The father and son weighed and tied up, and the other collected money to find money, and the sweat of the busy was dripping, and there was no time to wipe it, and the people in front of them also came and went.
A large bag of dried fish gradually bottomed out at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then Ye Yaodong dragged another bag to open it and continue to sell, by the way, he glanced at the time of the watch, it was less than two o'clock, and it was too late.
There were so many people around here, and the vendors on the side were also very clever and leaned over, and there were more and more people coming around to see the excitement.
Until he sold all the dried fish, there were still people in front of him who didn't buy the banknotes, and they all scolded there in annoyance and said that they had waited for a long time, but they were gone.
Harmonious and wealthy, Ye Yaodong could only laugh and coax, "I'm sorry, no, no, come back tomorrow!" ”
"Is it still this tomorrow?"
"Not necessarily, I won't be here tomorrow, but if it doesn't rain, I'll be in front of the wholesale seafood market in the morning."
"At the entrance of the wholesale aquatic market? So far ......."
After selling all the goods, the father and son also breathed a sigh of relief, and Ye's father immediately stuffed a large amount of banknotes in his hand into Ye Yaodong's hand, and asked him to turn around first and put it away behind his back.
While they were sorting things out, someone came over with bills, "Is the dried fish gone?" Is there anything else? ”
"Sold out so soon?"
"Gone, gone......"
Father Ye said in his broken Mandarin that it was gone, and he had just learned this sentence, while folding and putting away the bags, taking a straw rope and tying it all together, and then tying the rope tightly on the flat pole and lifting it on his shoulder.
After Ye Yaodong collected the money, he also turned around and said, "Sell it at the aquatic products wholesale market tomorrow morning, if you want to buy it, you will go over there tomorrow." ”
After finishing speaking, seeing that his father had already finished everything, Ye Yaodong couldn't care about being happy, so he pulled his father and hurried away, so as not to be targeted.
He didn't expect that the station was so easy to sell, much better than the wholesale market, and now there will be more people coming and going at the station than the market, after all, the location of the market is still a bit off, unlike the station, which is in the city.
However, it is not possible to open the market in a partial position, because many of the traffic is tractors, and the local streets in the city are not large, so they cannot be opened, but they will not be biased in the future, and even the suburbs and villages will be included in the city in the future.
As soon as the father and son ran to the gate of the station, Ye Yaodong planned to take out the ticket so that he could wait to get on the train, but when he felt his pocket, it was empty again......
Not far away, there are several scalpers who are constantly asking passers-by, where to go? Do I want a ticket?
His eyes widened, he was speechless, and he didn't know when he didn't have it, the thief was too efficient.
"Dad, the ticket was stolen."
"Huh? Stolen again? ”
He took out the empty pocket and showed it to his father, "I didn't expect that even the tickets were stolen, you wait here, I'll buy two more." ”
"Then you hurry up, I'll wait here."
Ye Yaodong went back quickly, fortunately, their small county town is a small place, the population circulation is small, and the tickets are not tight, so they are easy to buy.
Just when he came out, he saw that next to the dried fish they were selling just now, there was a group of gangsters who were embarrassed to push a cart to sell vegetables.
And the old man was there to laugh and beg for mercy, and the surrounding vendors were already so frightened that they carried their burdens and ran away with their carts.
Father Ye also patted his chest with palpitations, "Fortunately, let's sell it out first, why is the security in this city so bad." ”
Ye Yaodong was also a little lucky, fortunately they ran away first after selling, and when he was selling at that time, he was worried about whether a few ruffians would pop up to collect protection money.
Now it seems that the worries at that time were not unreasonable, and there was really some chaos in these years, even if the crackdown was severed and the chickens and monkeys were published nationwide, but the local government still could not avoid it.
Although he looked at the old man a little pitiful, he couldn't help it.
The people who come and go around are also afraid to avoid it from afar, in this case, unless they have something to rely on, otherwise ordinary people are also far away, and they can hide.
The reason for this situation is also related to the large number of educated youths who returned to the city in 80 years.
There are not enough jobs in the city, and these young people have become unemployed.
As the number of unemployed people increases, young people who have nothing to do gather together, and it is easy for them to gather to make trouble, fight, and even those with brain diseases are proud to go to prison.
