At noon, for many years, the lunch of the five of them was steamed buns, which was simple and convenient.

At about three o'clock in the afternoon, the small puddle that expanded again, and the fish in it were estimated to be more than 80 catties.

There was an old man who was passing by and went to the river to check their catch.

The uncle stayed by the river for more than half an hour, and saw with his own eyes that they had caught seven or eight catties of fish for many years, and he was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth for a long time.

I feel that the fish in the river are the same as those they have raised at home for many years, and they keep eating hooks.

However, the old man didn't say anything, and they didn't care for many years.

Just ask the latter when he will go back before leaving?

"It's about five o'clock, and if it's late, you won't be able to catch the bus."

"Then aren't you afraid that these fish won't sell?"

Xu Xiaoqian and her children went straight to each other and told them about their feat of selling fish on the bus yesterday.

So the old man didn't say anything, just turned around and ran away.

"Third uncle, did we say the wrong thing and make the uncle angry?"

The children didn't quite understand, and asked with their mouths flattened with some grievances.

"No, don't think about it, come and help the third uncle fish the nest." After many years, they responded to a sentence, which directly turned their mood into a sunny day.

As a result, when it was almost half past four, the old man rushed towards the river with three big men trotting.

This scene frightened Xu Wumei and the others directly behind them for many years.

But soon, they learned that Bai was worried, because the old man said that he wanted to buy fish, and he bought all of them.

"Comrade, you are really masters, this is your day's catch? It's amazing....."

The three people behind the old man were all very excited, staring at the catch in the small puddle with bright eyes, and the hala was about to flow down.

It is estimated that he has seen many years of doubt, and the old man opened his mouth to explain.

It turned out that the old man was a retired worker in a nearby machine repair factory, and the three big men were workers in the machine repair factory, and one of them was the uncle's son.

The machine repair factory is a large factory in the capital, and the supply of various materials will not be in short supply.

However, something happened to the canteen procurement office recently, and the old man's son was chasing ducks to the shelves.

Since it has only been a few days since I took up the post, many of the purchases are not familiar, resulting in the fish purchased back is not fresh, and the meat is also very average.

Some of them are shipping problems, and some of them are not very fresh when they are bought.

Therefore, the people in the factory complained and were miserable.

The old man wants to help his son, so he has been going out a lot recently, just to see if it is possible to find a stable source of goods, or he can respond to emergencies and survive this test smoothly.

I didn't think about it, but I was really touched by the old man today.

Needless to say, many years of fishing skills are very powerful.

Let's put it this way, there are a lot of anglers in the capital, but it is the first time that the old man has seen a ruthless man who has almost wiped out the river for many years.

The fish in the small puddle are very fresh, isn't this the fresh fish that the machine shop wants?

So, just now I went back and called his son over, and by the way, I also called a helper.

After understanding what was going on, many years suddenly came to my senses.

But Xu Wumei and the others became excited.

If the old man directly pulled the fish away from the small puddle, wouldn't he have to work hard to move them to the bus?

"So, you want to buy the fish from the little puddle?"

However, the old man shook his head, and said after many years of frowning and his sister and niece black-faced:

"Aren't you going to catch until five o'clock? It's not half past four yet, so if you continue to fish, we'll take as much as you can. ”

For such an atmospheric and bold old man, many years have been surprised:

"Now there are 100 catties of fish in the puddle, can you eat it?"

"That's not it, let alone a hundred catties of fish, even if it's two hundred catties of fish, the mechanic factory can eat it."

The old man's son replied directly with a smile, and said unashamedly, if you come to fish nearby tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, you can accept it.

Generally speaking, after the fish in the river come ashore, they will die after not raising them for a few days.

However, there are many people in the machine repair factory, and a canteen can consume fifty catties of fish a day.

Although a dime and a pound of fish is not very cheap, it is half cheaper than three cents a pound of pork.

Although nowadays people prefer pork to fish.

However, who wants to be vegetarian if they can eat meat?

The workers in the machine repair factory are doing heavy work, and if there is no meat, it is estimated that the workers will have no energy to work.

"Oh, uncle, you are magnificent!"

After many years of thumbs up to them, Xu Wumei and the others also cheered.

Your uncle is really your uncle, it's really atmospheric!

Not only that, but when the fish is loaded, he also helps pull the hook.

In this way, when it was almost five o'clock, the fish in the small puddle were completely full.

In the end, with the cooperation of everyone, the fish in the puddle were weighed.

After adding it together, it is confirmed that it is one hundred and twenty-two pounds, which is beyond everyone's expectations, it is really a lot!

Regarding the price, I wanted to make concessions for many years, but who knew that the uncle didn't say a word, and directly set a price of one and a half cents.

This price is for his son, who can't get a penny of oil and water.

However, the old man's son has no second words, after all, the most important thing for them now is to tide over the difficulties, not to take kickbacks and fish with all their might.

received eighteen yuan and a dime and five cents from the uncle's son, and many years were full of emotion.

As far as the fish he catches today, in the next life, there will not be one or two thousand, and they will not be touched at all.

Xu Wumei and the others, staring at the money with straight eyes.

Even if it's in your pocket, you can't help but fantasize.

At the end of the day, she directly earned so much income that Xu Wumei couldn't help but fantasize naively:

"Third brother, if we talk every day in the future, won't we have to send it?"

"You're thinking about fart, aren't you? How can there be so many fish in the river for you? ”

I didn't think much about this for many years, and just said the cruel reality.

If they could really make a living from fishing, those seaside fishermen would not be living a hard life now.

I saw the thief eating meat, but I didn't see the thief beaten.

Help the old man and them transport the fish back to the car on the side of the road, and before leaving, the old man made an appointment with many years to meet tomorrow.

Because the old man has retired, he wants to fish with him tomorrow.

For many years, he did not refuse.

When he came home, he asked his sister for many years, where can I buy meat?

With money in his pocket, he was really greedy, so he wanted to buy some meat to treat himself.

"Third brother, then you have to get up at five o'clock tomorrow morning, there is pork to sell at the supply and marketing cooperative."

"No beef or mutton?"

"I don't know, we haven't eaten it anyway."

Many years of disappointment have been frustrated.

The supplies are too scarce, and it is very troublesome to eat something good.

However, at this time, through the window of the bus, he saw the signboard of the roast duck restaurant.

The stomach suddenly stopped fighting.

Following his gaze, Xu Wumei and the others were about to drool.
