Chapter 950: Oil Fish Pretending to Be Salmon (7000 Words)
Although the local food is not delicious and a little sweeter, no one wastes it.
Meat and vegetarian, all five of them were swept away, and the disc policy was implemented, so they almost had the soup mixed with rice, but the soup was too sweet, and no one wanted to.
After eating and drinking enough, and burping one by one, they walked out.
The current state-run restaurants pay before the meal, and there is no reason to pay the bill after the meal.
They still had luggage on hand, so they sent the luggage back to the tractor with Uncle Zhou first, and then they went to find the guest house.
Walking on the street with a lockbox, they couldn't help but hold their heads high, and they also felt that their self-confidence exploded a lot, and they always felt that passers-by couldn't help but look at them a few more times.
"I knew to bring my toad glasses with me, and many people wore them when they danced in the park just now."
"Come on, you're going to be a boss, and if you can't keep it, you'll have to be robbed in an instant."
"Crow's beak."
Ye Yaodong was scolded by his father and immediately shut up.
After leaving Uncle Zhou to look at the luggage again, taking advantage of the fact that there were less than two hours before the sun went down, they couldn't care about wandering around anymore and began to look for people to ask for directions.
The problem of staying at night must be solved first, otherwise no one is in the mood to go shopping.
After asking three people in a row, they walked two streets and walked one or two kilometers before finding a guest house.
On the way to find and ask, they also walked almost two streets, and there were the same number of people on each street, coming and going with baskets in their hands, looking at the thriving and prosperous scene.
They showed a letter of introduction, and booked a chase shop, there is really no single room, there are many people who come and go to the provincial capital, if you come a little later, maybe you don't even have to sleep in the chase shop, and you have to look for it again.
After the order was completed, Ye Yaodong asked Father Ye and Father Pei to stay in the guest house first, and he and Ah Guang went out to find Uncle Zhou and led him to drive a tractor over here.
It's just that at a turning intersection, the two met an unexpected acquaintance, and they were both a little stunned.
And the other party saw that they were also a little panicked, so they immediately packed up their things and put them in the canvas bag behind them, picked up the small bench and ran.
When they first came over, they saw someone shining their shoes, so they didn't pay attention to it, and they saw it when they went back again.
After all, the streets are full of shoe-shine craftsmen, especially on and off bridges, at intersections, etc., and shoe-shine does not require any skills.
Seeing that the person turned his head and disappeared, Ye Yaodong and Ah Guang glanced at each other.
"I haven't seen it for more than a year, I didn't expect to come to the province, I heard that I didn't go back for the New Year, if I hadn't made one or two calls back, his family would have thought he died outside."
Ye Yaodong shook his head, "It doesn't seem to be a person." ”
"It's not so easy to go out, and people are not smart."
"It may also be that you are in trouble, so make a transition for the time being, and make ends meet first."
"If it were me, I'd rather pull a rickshaw than shine my shoes there."
"You're stupid, I'm going to sell tea eggs."
Although there are opportunities everywhere in these years, but also to be smart and discerning, optimistic about the goal, shine the heel of the rickshaw, it is better to sell tea eggs, the same is low-cost, and when you have a little money on hand to find a way, to resell some electronic products may make a fortune faster.
Well... He's actually just a mouth.
I haven't done it, I've only heard of it, it's just a piece of paper.
I've only worked as a fisherman in my two lifetimes, so I'm the most familiar with this industry.
If you really ask him to resell electronic products, although it is very likely to succeed, but this will have to leave his hometown, and he will stay alone outside, what is the point.
He doesn't expect to become the richest tycoon, and he is afraid of being sold, so he is still counting the money. I've heard that some people are inflated, and as a result, they are made a game, and there are also people who have to jump off the building.
It's better to be safe in the field he is familiar with, originally he didn't have any big ambitions, just a common man, a little rich again, and his family is safe.
Anyway, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, and if they don't bring them when they are born or die, it would be good to leave a little bit of family property for their three children in the future.
No dynasty lasts forever.
"Tea eggs are easy to sell?"
"It's easy to sell, isn't it? Otherwise, why is there tea selling everywhere on the street? ”
"There's everything on the street."
"Whatever, let's take our sunny road, he crosses his single-plank bridge, don't talk too much when he goes back, the province reaches his ears, he feels faceless, and he holds a grudge against us."
"Afraid of him?" Ah Guang pouted, "The person with a small belly and chicken intestines is like this, why didn't you find that this person was so small-minded before?" ”
"No one was better than anyone before, and everyone had no money."
"As soon as the Mid-Autumn Festival passes, it will be the New Year in a few months, and I don't know if I will go back this year, and when I go back, I see that my brothers have only been around for more than a year, and they have developed several boats, and I don't know if it will be more uncomfortable."
"Don't worry, let's make our money, and I wish him a fortune soon."
There was no hatred, and he never thought that as long as people were unlucky, he would be happy.
Everyone makes a lot of money within their own ability, which is what he likes to see.
This year, the taste of the New Year is still very heavy, and there is a saying that there is no money to go home for the New Year. If you don't go home for the New Year, and you have to be alone in the field, it feels too pitiful and miserable.
"Anyway, we'll be back early tomorrow morning."
"It's not easy to come to the province, my butt hurts, I haven't walked a few steps, the sun is going down again, I haven't gone seriously yet, I have only walked two streets. Wait a while, before the department store closes, hurry in and take a quick turn, it's rare to come here, and you have to bring something back. ”
"Well, let's see if there's anything different in the province."
"Remember to take out the camera in your suitcase, bring it with you, and take a picture of me at the door of the department store later."
"Won't you buy a camera yourself?"
"I'll see, if you don't want an industrial ticket, buy it."
The two walked briskly, chatting as they went.
Uncle Zhou hugged the two lockboxes tightly in his arms, and he was also relieved when he saw both of them.
"You're finally back, and the people who walked back and forth kept staring at me, and I was afraid that they would all rush up and rob me."
"I've just found a guest house to stay in, so let's drive a tractor over now, settle down early, and have some time to go around the department store."
"Then you guys hurry up."
Uncle Zhou hurriedly returned their luggage to them, these two lockboxes were too ostentatious, and those young people who danced disco passed by and stopped to look.
They also found out.
The sun is slanting in the west, and there are more people near the park, and people who come and go will look at the lockbox in their hands twice, although it is a provincial city, but there are not many people holding lockboxes on the road.
If you stay here any longer, it's hard to guarantee that no one will blatantly grab it and run away.
This thing still has to be put at home, or when you can only go home, you can pretend to be forced when you get out of the car, and you can't show off when you bring it out.
Fortunately, they drove the tractor, and they left directly after going up.
Father Ye and Father Pei have been standing at the door of the guest house and waiting, they are not as bold as the two boys, running around, and they are not at ease if they don't wait for anyone.
It wasn't until they were all right that they put down their luggage and prepared to go back to the department store two blocks away.
It's quite a toss, and it's going back and forth several times.
And the department store will get off work at the end of the day, and they won't be shopping for long in total, so they can only come out.
Ye Yaodong was holding several villain books in his hand, he didn't buy toys, the children at home had enough toys, and they were not allowed to play with toys in the past two days, he couldn't break this rule.
But when I came to the provincial capital, I couldn't say that I didn't bring them some gadgets, so I had to buy books, read books and grow my brain, but unfortunately I didn't have any practice questions to see, otherwise I would have to buy some practice questions and go back to them to do.
There is also a book on knitting sweaters bought for Ah Qing, seeing that she is dismantling sweaters every year and changing to knit sweaters in patterns.
She definitely likes this kind of flower style weaving book, and I heard that it is also just starting to become popular, and they don't have it in small places.
The most important thing is that he bought the old lady a black wig!
Ye Yaodong held a wig and gestured on the top of his father's head, and Father Ye couldn't help but dodge.
"Why, who did you buy it for? I don't need to. ”
"For Grandma, if you bring it up, you will definitely be ten years younger, and you can say it's your sister."
"No serious, what wig to wear? Isn't it normal to be old and have gray hair? ”
"You don't understand that. Love beauty, everyone has it, down to a three-year-old girl, up to an eighty-year-old lady, there is no love for beauty, if you take it back, the old lady has to be happy to look in the mirror every day. ”
Father Ye glanced at him with disgust, "Seventy or eighty, I still look in the mirror every day... I don't think you have anything to buy, so you want to buy one..."
By the way, his dad is really a roundworm in his stomach.
There is indeed everything at home, there should be something that should not be there, all of them, large and small items seem to be lacking, plus the things in the market are very fresh for many people, but for him, it is indeed ordinary and can not be more ordinary.
I don't have any desire to buy it.
What he wants to buy most is some small household appliances, but the family basically has everything, just saw a semi-automatic single-barrel washing machine, in fact, I really want to buy, as long as more than 400 yuan is enough, but to industrial tickets, he does not have industrial tickets.
I bought a brooch for his mother, or it won't be long before it gets cold, just enough for her to show off, just pin it on her chest, she absolutely likes it.
Of course, his wife must have it.
His father also had a few pairs of cashmere socks and two towels in his hands, although he didn't want to buy anything, but he couldn't really bring nothing, he came here, and when he went back, he could say that this was bought in the provincial city, and there was light on his face.
Ye Yaodong also has it in his hand, and his towel has already broken several holes.
The old lady's towels were even more broken than him, and they were all one by one, but she put them in her own room to prevent people from seeing them......
The five of them all went in and out together, and most of the things they bought were not much different.
If you think it's good, I think it's good, let's buy it together.
He and Ah Guang also bought a calculator each, and they now have to settle accounts at two ends in three days, and they just saw it, so the two of them bought one, which is also convenient.
Mainly, he doesn't plan to make a plate, and for powerful people, he may feel that the abacus is more convenient to use.
"It's a pity, I arrived too late today, and I didn't go shopping for a while before I got off work, I really said I got off work after work."
"Anyway, I've already been here, it's good to see it, and next time I have the opportunity to go to another street."
"I still want to go to the farmer's market to see if there are many people and how many people sell vegetables."
"It had to be early in the morning, before dawn, and probably the farmers' market was full of people."
"So let's get up early in the morning? Go over at three o'clock to take a look, and after seeing the excitement, it is estimated that the sky is also dawning, so let's just set off to go back? ”
"Okay, I'm here anyway, so get up early and take a look."
They walked to the guest house, discussing the arrangements for tomorrow, anyway, they didn't plan to go anywhere in the evening, and when they got back, they would take a shower and rest for a while, and go to bed early.
In these years, the day is chaotic, let alone at night, for your own personal safety, it is best not to go out after dark, and generally those who go out after dark are not good people.
The sun also went down, and as they walked on the road, their shadows were stretched out.
Ye Yaodong was holding something full of things in one hand and a wig in the other, constantly spinning and turning in his hand.
Father Ye couldn't help but say, "Can you stop turning?" Those who don't know think you're turning heads. ”
"Huh? Do you want to say it so terrifying? ”
Father Pei also smiled and said, "It's really quite similar, you didn't see that the people around you were wide-eyed, and then breathed a sigh of relief." ”
"Isn't it rare for anyone to have that much money to buy this thing?" Father Ye continued angrily.
"Okay."
Ye Yaodong directly put the wig on top of his head, and walked swaggeringly regardless of the eyes of passers-by, so that he could take one less thing.
The other companions couldn't help but shake their heads when they saw it.
Even the front desk of the guest house opened its mouth in surprise when it saw him, and then looked at him a few more times.
It is also convenient for the five of them to have a large bunk, don't crowd with others, and sleep together to take care of each other.
When they arrived at the room, they dragged out the luggage and lockbox that were lying under the bed, opened them, and sorted out the things they had bought.
Ye Yaodong bought the most, he didn't know what to buy, and when he saw other people buying, he thought it was suitable and followed others to buy it.
Originally, a lockbox only contained one set of clothes for him, and it was light and empty, but it was instantly filled with the things he bought, just enough to fill.
The five of them got up at three o'clock in the morning, sat on the tractor all day, their buttocks were going to be bumpy and cracked, and their bones were about to fall apart.
They each spent two cents, got a basin of hot water, washed up briefly, and snored one after another when they lay down.
Even the sound of walking back and forth in the corridor and talking was unaffected.
The sun had just set, and they went to bed so early, and there was probably no one else in the guest house, but fortunately they were only full of food, and they didn't need to finish eating.
At three o'clock in the morning, they woke up one by one.
They are all people who are used to work, and they can sleep when they say they can sleep, and when they should wake up, they can wake up immediately.
However, it was still dark outside, and they didn't say that they would leave immediately with their luggage, but they planned to follow the tractor to the farmers' market first, and then come back before leaving.
In the dark night, the moonlight illuminates the streets, and the street lights are only available on the current streets, and half of the road to the farmer's market has no street lights, so you can only rely on flashlights to light the way ahead.
There was not even a ghost on the road, and it was not until they were close to the farmers' market that they saw some rural farmers carrying burdens and pushing carts on some small roads.
The closer you get to the farmer's market, there are more people carrying the cart, densely packed, all of them come from the countryside early in the morning, and some of them are sweating profusely, it is only early in the morning, the temperature is still low, and I don't know how many miles I walked.
When they parked the car on the side of the road and got out of the car, Ye Yaodong happened to see a tractor driving past them, and the water on the tractor kept flowing all the way.
He sniffed the remnants of the air, "That cart is seafood?" I smell the freshness. ”
"I don't know where it came from, so much water, the ice has melted."
"It's good to be fresh."
"There are a lot of people around, there are more and more, the morning market has begun, right?"
"We also walked around and went home, and we were also people who had inspected the market."
The two walked shoulder to shoulder.
Father Ye called the two of them to come back after a while, don't be too involved in shopping, and pay attention to the good time.
Ye Yaodong stretched out his hand and raised them behind his back.
The tractor that had just driven by didn't go far, because there were people in front of them, so they found a vacant seat on the side of the road and stopped directly, and kept carrying baskets down from the car, still shouting.
"Sell fish, sell fish, salmon sell cheap......"
"Sell salmon...... Don't miss it as you walk by. ”
"Take a look at it without money, ensure freshness, the ice hasn't melted yet......"
Originally, the two of them were only going to hang out casually, and they were not interested in this fish seller, but this shouting really attracted them.
"Salmon? Is there salmon here? Ye Yaodong said suspiciously.
Although he couldn't understand the local dialect, he could still understand the name of the fish.
"What do you mean? Can't there be salmon? ”
"Of course, this is a cold-water fish that likes to live in cool waters, and it is a fish that lives in the north, but in September and October, salmon will go to freshwater rivers to spawn, but will it go south?"
You must know that there is no cold chain transportation now, and the local specialties are consumed locally, and the road expenses are not enough to send it so far.
Ah Guang has only been a fisherman for a year or two, and he doesn't understand this, so he listened to him blankly, and only said, "Let's go and take a look?" ”
"Let's see."
"Three cents a pound, three cents a pound, salmon are sold cheaply, three cents a pound, such a big deep-sea fish is sold cheaply......"
Many people have been attracted by the shouting, the attraction of tractors is still very strong, there are really no tractors directly to sell fish, at most a few pushing carts there to shout.
This basket is all over the ground, and there are so many of them, which is also quite attractive.
In the minds of ordinary people, the more quantity, the cheaper it must be, just like wholesale.
"Such a big fish, three cents a pound?" A local asked curiously.
In this era, no matter where it is, as long as it is an employee, it is loose at hand, not to mention that there are many units in the provincial capital, of course, there are many employees, and the purchasing power is also strong, so I am afraid that there is nothing to buy.
The woman who questioned her was indeed well-dressed, and her face was smeared with grease and powder, so she knew at a glance that the family conditions were not bad.
"Yes, it's three cents a pound, there is no store in this village, this is a deep-sea fish, the taste is very good, you can look at the eyes, look at the gills, they are still fresh."
"It looks pretty fresh......"
"It's also quite cheap, only three cents a catty, and in the past, such a big fish cost seven or eight cents."
"Yes, yes, there are too many goods, so they are handled cheaply, sold at a loss, and there will be no store in this village after this village, everyone hurriedly grabbed it, that's all, sold out and gone."
"Weigh me a smaller ......"
"I want a small ...... too"
Ye Yaodong listened to the conversations of the people around him and grabbed the goods, standing behind and didn't see a basket of goods on the ground, but he saw the tractor that was not carried down.
Where is this horse salmon? This is obviously oily fish.
I've always heard that someone used oil fish to pretend to be salmon and cod, but I didn't expect to bump into him with my own eyes.
He said, where did the salmon come from in the south these days?
Hell salmon.
Ah Guang didn't know why he agreed, "It's really cheap, three cents a pound is still retail, or I drive a tractor to sell it, and I don't know if I can make money for oil." ”
"Cheap yarn, this is an oily fish, you can't recognize it? also deceived these illiterate city people. ”
"Is it oily fish?"
Ah Guang was surprised.
"Of course, you take a closer look."
There are no street lights around, it is all up to the people to shine around with flashlights, the light is a little dim, and the flashlights are constantly shaking, in the dark night, it is really not easy to identify from the distance.
"It's really a bit like, so isn't that harmful? Taking advantage of the darkness of the night, everyone couldn't see clearly, so they hurriedly bought it just by hearing the price. ”
When he said that oily fish knew the danger, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt like it.
"It's not a bit like it, it's oily fish."
"What to do? These are all grabbed there, for fear that they will be gone when it is too late. ”
Ye Yaodong was also a little hesitant, he was a foreigner who opened his mouth and shouted, maybe no one believed him, and they also beat them up, saying that he was jealous of their good business, and it was estimated that he would have to be beaten.
"Cutting off people's financial routes, such as killing my parents, I am afraid of being beaten."
"Uh...... Forget it, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer, and it's just two days of oil leakage in the butt, and this still tastes good. ”
"Have you eaten?"
"I didn't know it when I was a child, but I ate it once."
"Butt oil once?"
Guang: "?! ”
"I'm talking about oily fish!"
"What kind of oily fish? Don't you talk nonsense? You're going to smash the field, right? A foreigner is so bold that he dares to run here and talk nonsense. ”
"That's it, this is a real deep-sea salmon, what kind of oil fish, don't talk nonsense, take care of your mouth."
Unexpectedly, they also met someone who knew the goods, and the two fishmongers panicked when they heard it, and immediately opened their mouths and shouted at them.
Come on, it has already attracted firepower, Ye Yaodong thought that he could only bite the bullet.
"We're not wrong, this is oily fish, it's poisonous, the asshole you eat will leak oil, and you can't stop leaking, you two are too black-hearted, treat oily fish as salmon, fool the people, and make black-hearted money will go to eighteen layers of hell."
The crowd who were picking fish was instantly frightened and didn't dare to pick any more, and took a step back.
"This fish is poisonous?"
"Really? This fish is poisonous, huh? ”
"How dare they take out the poisonous fish and sell it?"
"Ahh Then I don't want it, return the money, I don't want the fish, you are too black-hearted, the poisonous fish is still taken out and sold, do you sincerely want to poison us? ”
The two fishmongers instantly became anxious, "You step on the horse and shut up, don't talk nonsense, Lao Tzu sells salmon, why are you lying to people with empty words?" ”
"That is, don't listen to him, folks, what do they outsiders know? It's just that we are jealous that our business is good and we have attracted so many customers, so if you come to make trouble, don't listen to him, who dares to sell poisonous fish for people to eat, and is not afraid of being shot. ”
"That is, we both have our faces exposed here, and everyone can see it, where dare to sell poisonous fish."
Everyone also felt that it made sense.
Locals naturally choose to trust locals compared to foreigners.
"It's not enough to be shot, this fish is said to be poisonous, but it's not really poisonous, it's just that there is wax fat that the human body can't absorb, and as soon as you eat it, your asshole will keep spraying oil, you can imagine, walking on the road, your asshole keeps leaking oil......"
"Nonsense, don't listen to his nonsense, they must also be fishmongers, deliberately came to sabotage, how can such a good deep-sea fish leak oil if eaten."
"If you two know each other, hurry up, everyone will do their own business and don't interfere with each other."
Ah Guang spoke up: "You two black-hearted fishmongers, you are anxious when you meet us who know the goods, right?" Others can deceive us, don't think about fish, Lao Tzu has a pair of fiery eyes, and you can know what kind of fish it is at a glance. ”
Ye Yaodong also said: "This fish is mainly eaten after eating, it will cause stomach cramps, and the oil will continue to flow out of the anus...... If you eat too much, it will also cause the feces in the intestines to flow out uncontrollably, you can imagine. ”
"We are not local, nor do we sell fish, and we have no grievances with him, but we just happened to come to buy vegetables, and when we heard the shouting, we came over curiously to take a look."
"If this is really salmon, where will it be so cheap, there is an old saying that is particularly good, good goods are not cheap, cheap is not good, how can anyone sell fish at a loss."
"Hurry up and pay me back, I don't want to fish......"
"I don't want it either...... Refund ......"
"Don't listen to them, they're here to make trouble......"
This point is still updated, I didn't release your pigeons, I really tried too hard! I'm afraid that I will make you wait and let you down, so I will treat you to a monthly ticket!
