Chapter 6: Selling Fish! Make hay! There was no spark when we met for the first time
"Mom!"
"Are you a fool?"
Ding Xiaoxiang is angry and funny. Ten dollars a pound? This kind of half-catty goby is impossible at this price. People who grew up in fishing villages understand this at the age of five or six.
"Yo!"
"You're fucking stupid?"
"How stupid is it to set up a stall like this here to do business?"
"That kid just looked at you for a while, thinking that he could accept it at a low price. Unexpectedly, this kid turned around and left. ”
Zhang Li shook her head.
"Mom!"
"How can you talk like that?!"
Ding Xiaoxiang's face turned red and glared at Zhang Li.
"Humph!"
"Nobody's taking this kid's fish! I'll have to come back in a while! ”
Zhang Li ignored Ding Xiaoxiang and stared at Zhao Dahai's back until she couldn't see it.
Ding Xiaoxiang shook her head, her own lady really thought too much. No one took the fish? How can it be? Don't look at the town next to the sea, there is no shortage of crab gobys, but they are all small, and the ones that the man brought just now are all big, and they are very sought-after. Don't worry about this fish.
Zhao Dahai left Ding Xiaoxiang's stall, continued to walk forward, found a few stalls and asked the price, there was a price of twenty-three yuan for the opening of the goods, said that it was not high, and the bottom was not low, and nodded for a while.
Zhao Dahai counted it carefully twice, no problem, stuffed it in his pocket, packed up the net bag and bucket, and turned to leave.
"This boss."
"Let's take a look at the fish on our stall!"
"They all arrived in the early hours of this morning. Fish cargo from small fishing boats. Very fresh. ”
……
"Look at this grouper."
……
"The sand tip fish are all one or two."
"Less thorns, more flesh. Pan-fried is the most delicious! ”
……
Zhang Li and Ding Xiaoxiang skillfully greeted everyone who passed by, and the fish, shrimp and crabs on the stalls were selling quickly.
"Mom!"
"Your goby can't be stored now!"
Ding Xiaoxiang killed a fish, put it in a bag, handed it to the person who bought it, and saw Zhao Dahai walking not far in front of the stall, the bucket in his hand was fluttering, needless to say, it must have been sold.
"Hey!"
"This brother. Your fish sold? ”
Zhang Li's face was a little unsightly, she forced out a smile and shouted at Zhao Dahai.
"yes!"
"Sold!"
"Twenty-three pounds. Currency. ”
Zhao Dahai didn't expect Zhang Li to say hello, but he immediately understood that he wanted to know how much money he would sell, so he didn't want to say it, but he rolled his eyes and changed his mind.
"That's a good price!"
Zhang Li regretted it, set up a fish stall here for ten years, the price of the fish market is clear, half a catty of goby, can be sold for thirty-one catties casually, just now I can see clearly, the smallest half catty, seven or eight nine two catties, the remaining few are more than one catty, a little or even more than two catties, the currency price of twenty-three yuan to take, you can earn one or two hundred yuan, sell to the restaurant, earn more, the key is that the fish came to their hands first, blame themselves for being too greedy.
Zhao Dahai smiled. Zhang Li is insincere.
"Something!"
"Let's go!"
Zhao Dahai waved his hand.
"Holo."
"You're busy."
"I went back and caught a fish. Bring me here. I will definitely give you a good price. ”
Zhang Li forced out a smile and shouted.
Zhao Dahai nodded and turned to leave.
"Mom!"
"That kid was deliberately angry with you just now!"
Ding Xiaoxiang wiped water on the apron with both hands,
"You think I don't know?"
"It's a pity!"
"Confiscate these gobys!"
Zhang Li sighed.
Ding Xiaoxiang laughed, her own wife is very shrewd, there is no one in the entire fish market to do business, this time she is really a little greedy, and she wants to make a lot of money. However, no one is to blame for this.
Zhao Dahai left the fish market with a bucket and patted his pocket, which contained almost six hundred yuan.
Zhao Dahai turned around and walked into another small street next to the fish market, where rice noodles and meat were sold, bought a bag of 50 catties of rice to carry on his shoulders, and bought 10 catties of pork belly plus some oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, vegetable seeds or something, and finally bought a few pieces of red date cakes, and then went back to the village.
Heavy?
It's impossible!
There is money in his pocket, he is like stepping on the clouds, fluttering, and walking with a gust of wind.
One o'clock at noon.
The sun is high in the sky.
The stove was average, and it was very hot.
Zhao Dahai strode into the courtyard and shouted for grandma to come back by herself.
Zhong Cuihuatang walked out of the house, saw Zhao Dahai carrying his hand on his shoulder, and immediately helped.
"Grandma!"
"This is jujube paste. You taste it. ”
Zhao Dahai put down his things and took the bag containing the red date paste.
"Yo!"
"What are you doing with all this money?"
Zhong Cuihua shook her head.
"How much money did you get?"
"Your eldest grandson, I made money."
"Isn't it normal to buy you something delicious?"
"Eat it all while it's hot."
Zhao Dahai opened the bag, took out a piece, and put it in Zhong Cuihua's hand.
"Good! Good! ”
"Eat!"
"Eat them all!"
Zhong Cuihua took the red date paste to her mouth, took a small bite, and smiled.
Zhao Dahai walked into the kitchen, took a bowl, poured half a bowl of water, and brought it out, Zhong Cuihua's eyes shone brightly, which showed how uneasy he was in the past two years.
"Grandma."
"Eat slowly."
Zhao Dahai pretended not to see it, Zhong Cuihua put a small table next to him, put water on it, he didn't come back, he definitely didn't eat, went back to the kitchen, found that the rice had been cooked on the stove, took the pork belly he had just bought, cut half a catty, put it in the pot and boiled it for half an hour, it was soft and rotten before he took it out, sliced it, stacked it on a plate, patted two garlic grains, poured some soy sauce, loaded two bowls of rice, and took it out to the yard and put it on the table.
Zhao Dahai sandwiched a piece of meat and put it on Zhong Cuihua's rice, took the chopsticks, and started to eat it himself.
Hungry!
I'm really hungry!
Zhao Dahai waved his chopsticks like an excavator and ate them in large gulps.
Zhong Cuihua held the bowl and took a mouthful of rice into her mouth, while looking at Zhao Dahai, her old face was full of smiles.
After Zhao Dahai finished lunch, he told his grandmother that Zhong Cuihua had sold the goby fish he had caught for almost 600 yuan, and the money was originally intended to be given to his grandmother Zhong Cuihua, but no, he said that he was eighteen years old, and he was the pillar of the family, so he had to take care of the money himself.
Zhao Dahai took a break, and it was already five o'clock in the afternoon in a blink of an eye, remembering that his grandmother Zhong Cuihua had said that there must be someone fishing for crabs and gobies in the village, and knew that this thing was very likely to be true, but he was a little unwilling, walked out of the yard, and strode towards the small pier in front of the village.
Sunset
The fishing boats scattered on the sea, paved with flashing golden light, jumping fish, a good picture of fishing singing at night.
Zhao Dahai didn't have the slightest intention of appreciating it, and stretched his neck to look at the reef area where he fished for crabs and gobies last night while walking along the beach.
Someone! There were not only people, but quite a few, and there were more than a dozen black spots in the distance, and grandma was right, everyone in the village went there to fish for crab goby.
Zhao Dahai's face was a little ugly, when he went home last night, he met Zhong Shizhu at the small pier, and chatted a few words, and there were a few other people around, all of whom knew that they had caught a big crab and tiger, needless to say, the news spread and came all at once. Grandma said that when she was lucky, when she just sold the crab tiger, she wanted to hurry up and fish again and make more money, but now this situation is completely cool, don't even think about it, so many people must have fished from last night to now, and they have caught all that they can fish.
Meat?
The soup is gone!
There's nothing left of the slag.
Zhao Dahai continued to walk forward, wanting to see with his own eyes how many people were fishing for crabs and tigers.
