Chapter 80: The Sea
Li Ping'an saw that Hu Daring seemed to have misunderstood what he meant, and hurriedly explained
"Hu Zhishu, the amount I purchased is not large, and it looks like more than 100 catties, and I can't pull it away if there is more."
Hu Daring heard that Li Ping'an's purchase volume was only so much, and his face suddenly fell, but he quickly reacted, and more than 100 catties of seafood could be sold for more than ten yuan. So he put on a smile again
"Comrade purchaser, more than 100 catties is fine, tell me what you want"
Li Ping'an thought for a while, and then said boldly to Hu
"Hu Zhishu, I want to be crabs, sea cucumbers, oysters, abalone, lobsters, you can watch it, as long as I can fill the body behind my car."
After Li Ping'an finished speaking, he thought of something again and spoke again
"So, get more oysters, I love to eat those things"
When Hu Daring heard these things Li Ping'an said, his face completely collapsed. These things are worthless things, only a few cents a pound.
Li Ping'an noticed Hu Daring's face, he knew what Hu Daring was thinking, so he said lightly
"Hu Zhishu, all the things I mentioned above are purchased according to one dime and one catty, and you can use national food stamps to offset them. But I said in advance, I want big things, and I don't want small ones."
When Hu Daring heard Li Ping'an say this, he laughed again, and hurriedly held Li Ping'an's hand and kept thanking him
"Thank you, comrade buyer. You don't know the suffering of our fishermen, we fishermen can't eat enough every day, and we can only eat abalone and sea cucumber every day to satisfy our hunger. Don't you know, there are so many sea cucumbers in my family that I can't eat them all, but I am hungry, and I really have no food at home, so I can only eat sea cucumbers secretly at night, for fear that my family will laugh at them after seeing them, and my family is so poor that I can only eat sea cucumbers. ”
Li Ping'an heard Hu Daring say this, although he knew that what he said was true, and the fishermen were really bitter, but his heart was really awkward. After comforting him for a while, Hu Daring recovered his emotions and then asked
"Comrade purchaser, when do you want it, what you want, our commune can fill it up now"
Li Ping'an thought about it, he can stock up on a cart of these seafoods, and if he has more, he can't take them out to sell or give them away. The origin of this thing is difficult to explain, and you can sneak around and get some food when you want to eat seafood in the future.
"That's it, Hu Zhishu, I'll take it away first when I load a car for me now, and then load another car for me tomorrow morning."
Hu Daring hurriedly said that there was no problem, and then immediately began to organize the members to go to the beach to pick up seafood now, and take out the big seafood at home and load it for Comrade Li Ping'an.
After the villagers all went to the sea, Li Ping'an followed Hu Daring to Hu Daring's house. Hu Daring wanted to invite Li Ping'an to a seafood dinner, but Li Ping'an refused.
Because there is no conditioning in these years, the things made are particularly fishy.
Li Ping'an gave Hu Daring a pound of food stamps and a dollar, and asked Hu Daring to find some oysters and steam them directly. When the two of them had almost eaten, the villagers also returned.
Li Ping'an watched them load the car, and the seafood they took out was not small, and seeing that it was almost loaded, Li Ping'an asked them to stop loading into the car.
According to a rough estimate, the seafood of this body is about 400 catties. Li Ping'an thought about it, and then gave 40 yuan and 20 catties of national food stamps.
Hu Daring saw that Li Ping'an gave so much money, and also gave 20 catties of national food stamps, and thanked Li Ping'an for a while.
This is indeed a lot of money, but it is really not easy for fishermen at this time. Later generations listened to fishermen eating abalone and sea cucumber every day, and felt that this thing was something that only rich people could afford, and fishermen ate it casually, and their lives must be very happy.
In fact, it is not the case, and the abalone and sea cucumber on the beach are really worthless this year. Only the poor family eats this thing as food, and the slightest bit of food at home will not eat this.
Just now, Hu Dadao said that there is no food at home, and he secretly eats sea cucumbers at night and does not dare to let people see them, which is the true portrayal of fishermen in this era.
After Li Ping'an handed over the money to Hu Daring, he left a sentence, "I'll come back later, I will live in your commune tonight", and drove away directly.
Now the sun has already set, and after Li Ping'an left the village, he put all the seafood into the warehouse, and then stopped caring after finding an empty space at random. Time stands still in the warehouse, and things are still fresh no matter how long they take them out after they are put in.
Li Ping'an looked out and ran to a seaside four or five kilometers away from the small fishing village. After parking the car, Li Ping'an came to the beach, looked at the deep and boundless sea in front of him, and listened to the sound of the choppy waves crashing against the reef.
Li Ping'an sat on the beach, looking at the sea to empty his mood, he didn't think about anything, and felt the sea breeze with a fishy smell blowing in his face.
The above is the number of words in the water, in fact, Li Ping'an has nowhere to go, so he sits on the beach in a daze.
Raising his wrist, he looked at the time by the moonlight, and he had been at the beach for half an hour. It's almost time, and now it's time to go back to the small fishing village to rest.
I got up and slapped the sand on my buttocks, and then drove back to the fishing village the way I came. When Li Ping'an came to the fishing village, the villagers at this time were sitting at the entrance of the village chatting and enjoying the coolness.
After the villagers saw the headlights, they all knew that the purchaser from Sijiu City had returned. So they all stood up and went to greet them, and after Li Ping'an parked the car, he found that Hu Daring was also in the crowd, so he hurriedly stepped forward to say hello.
"Comrade purchaser, your accommodation has been arranged tonight, and you will live in my house, and my wife has already cleaned it up for you just now."
Li Ping'an hurriedly thanked him, and then asked Hu Daring to call all the children in the village over and give each of them a piece of candy to eat.
When Hu Daring heard Li Ping'an say this, he arranged for someone to call all the children in the village, this village is not very big, and there are only about 30 households. There are not a hundred children of all sizes combined, Li Ping'an took out the White Rabbit toffee with the packaging removed from the car. One child gives one, and I don't know if it's taught in advance, or if the children know how to be polite. After every child gets the candy, whether it is the eldest child or the fourth or fifth year old, they will say thank you.
Because of Li Ping'an's act of giving candy to the children in the village just now, these fishermen are very friendly to Li Ping'an. A group of people sat at the entrance of the village and chatted, and the fishermen told Li Ping'an about going out to sea to fish, and Li Ping'an told them about the local customs of Sijiu City.
It wasn't until ten o'clock that a group of people went home to sleep.
