Chapter 38 When people are poor, there is nothing to be picky
Zhao Dahai walked into the yard sweating profusely, the sun was hanging in the middle of the sky, it was very hot, he sold the jumping fish and bought vegetables, and immediately rushed back.
"Grandma."
"The price of the jumping fish is good."
"It sold for more than 1,300 yuan."
Zhao Dahai poured a bowl of water, and while drinking, he walked into the hall and told Zhong Cuihua how much money he had earned.
"Yo!"
"That's pretty good."
"Why did you sell it for so much money?!"
Zhong Cuihua was very surprised, when did the jumping fish become so valuable.
"Grandma."
"I wondered if I should continue to grasp something."
Zhao Dahai told Zhong Cuihua the whole story. It's really hard to catch jumping fish, and the price is really good.
Zhong Cuihua shook her head. The mudflat in front of the mangrove forest in the village, there are indeed a lot of jumping fish, caught hard for a few days, how much is left is hard to say, one thing is certain, this fish is not stupid, frightened, it must not be so easy to catch, the key is that it is impossible to keep this price.
Zhao Dahai scratched the back of his head, it was indeed the case, he had been in that mudflat for several days, and the jumping fish that were easy to catch were all caught, and the rest were not easy to deal with, Liu Gang was not a fool, he happened to sell it at a high price today, and the next trip would definitely not be such a good thing. After thinking about it this way, it is not particularly cost-effective to continue to catch jumping fish.
"Grandma."
"You are right."
"Let's think about something else first. There's really no way to catch a jumping fish again. ”
"Anyway, the jumping fish is there, and it can't fly to the sky."
Zhao Dahai was not worried at all, the people in the village knew that they had made money catching jumping fish and rushed up, this work was too hard, he didn't have a fishing boat and couldn't go to sea to do this kind of thing, and few others were really willing.
Zhao Dahai told Zhong Cuihua that he planned to buy a second-hand motorcycle, at least to buy a bicycle, to save time when he went to the town to sell fish or buy things, now just rely on two legs, a trip back and forth for four hours, delay too many things, have to save money to repair the fishing boat, but this matter is not in a hurry, buy a motorcycle or bicycle, save the time to sell fish back and forth can make more money, this is more cost-effective.
"Hehehe!"
"The sea."
"You have the idea of these things."
"You're the one in charge. You don't have to tell me everything. ”
Zhong Cuihua shook her head.
"There is an old man in the family, and there is a treasure. There is always something to discuss! ”
Zhao Dahai saw that the time was about the same, went to the kitchen and started to cook lunch, the jumping fish was not willing to eat, all of them were taken and sold, fried two salted fish, fried a plate of green vegetables just bought, peeled the skin of two sweet potatoes, and put them in the rice to cook together, this is the meal eaten at noon.
Zhao Dahai finished eating lunch, and couldn't help but say that grandma Zhong Cuihua went back to the room to sleep, took the net and woven the fishing net herself, and didn't stop changing hands until Cuihua woke up at four o'clock in the afternoon.
Zhao Dahai walked out of the yard towards the small pier, turned around a few times to see if he could figure out what to do next to make some money, as soon as he arrived, Zhong Shizhu shouted at himself from a distance and beckoned, and immediately walked over.
"Have you had any fish lately?!"
Zhao Dahai got on Zhong Shizhu's fishing boat.
"Where's the fish?!"
"It's all small fish."
"Three or five catties or ten catties or eight catties can always be caught."
"It's okay to earn some money to support your family, but if you want to get rich, it's hard."
"Didn't you catch a jumping fish the other day?!"
"Sold it?!"
Zhong Shizhu sighed, there were a few fish caught in the past few days.
Zhao Dahai nodded, more than a dozen catties of jumping fish, sold for more than a thousand yuan.
Zhong Shizhu didn't expect Zhao Dahai to catch so many jumping fish. I earned more than 1,000 yuan in three days, which is much more than I earned, and I just thought about whether I wanted to catch the jumping fish, and I gave up in a blink of an eye, this job is really tiring.
"Hehehe!"
"What kind of jumping fish do you catch with a fishing boat?!"
Zhao Dahai smiled, he couldn't do it without a fishing boat, and he would definitely not catch a jumping fish if he had a fishing boat.
"The sea."
"How about going out to sea on my fishing boat?! For the next month or two, fishing without casting nets, the fishing boat can seat a few people. ”
Zhong Shizhu patted the side of his fishing boat, recently cast the net to catch the fish, planning to go to the reef to try fishing, this kind of place has to hang the net, the catch of the fish can not withstand the loss of the fishing net, originally wanted to say that there is no money, he has to go to sea every day, many people and few people, it doesn't cost much oil, but the words come to the mouth and swallow it back
"Hehehe!"
"Forget it."
"Look around the docks, see what's going on."
Zhao Dahai shook his head. Zhong Shizhu didn't say if he wanted money, but it was impossible for him not to give it. No one's fishing boat fell from the sky, and the diesel engine drank not seawater but oil, and it had to be bought with money, and the fishing boat sitting on the clock pillar had to pay for going to sea. The market price has to be at least 150 yuan a day, or even 200 yuan, don't look at this is a village, this money has to be given, if you don't give it, you have to owe favors, you owe favors, you have to pay it back sooner or later, there is no fishing boat to go to sea, it is more difficult to make money, more hard, you can only stay up.
Zhao Dahai and Zhong Shizhu didn't say a word, looking left and right from time to time, their minds kept wandering around how to make money next, and they inadvertently looked down and saw a dark red fish swimming around in the corner of the living bilge of the fishing boat.
"What kind of fish is this?!"
"Why don't you sell it?!"
Zhao Dahai was a little strange, the water surface was a little reflective, and he couldn't see what kind of fish it was.
Zhong Shizhu reached out and fished the fish and threw it on the deck.
Zhao Dahai saw clearly that it was Shi Jiugong, some places called tiger head fish, there are often this kind of fish in the places on the reef and reef, the number is very large, it is not a valuable fish, especially the one in front of him is not much bigger than a thumb, it is not worth much at all, no wonder it is not sold in the live cabin.
Shi Jiugong?!
That's right!
Why didn't you think of this?
Zhao Dahai patted his forehead vigorously.
Other fish can't go out to sea without fishing boats, but nineteen males are no problem.
"You don't want to fish for the Nine Princes, do you?!"
Zhong Shizhu looked at Zhao Dahai staring at the nineteen dukes jumping around on the deck.
Zhao Dahai nodded, he did plan to fish nineteen gongs, where there are reefs, there is no need to go to sea with fishing boats.
"Hey!"
"At the east end of the village, where you fish for gobys, there is this thing. But it's smaller. ”
"It's not worth much."
Zhong Shizhu pointed to the reef area at the east end of the village, where there were not only Shi Jiugong but also a lot of them, but they were small.
Zhao Dahai smiled. Shi Jiugong is indeed worthless, but no matter how worthless it is, it is money, if you can catch big fish, who can catch small fish, there is nothing to be picky about when people are poor.
Zhao Dahai chatted with Zhong Shizhu for a while, left the dock and hurried home, he had to make some preparations.
Zhong Shizhu looked at the back of Zhao Dahai leaving and pouted. Shi Jiugong? It's all children fishing and playing, and people who are going out to sea to fish, and no one can look at it, and it's a ghost to fish this thing to make money.
