Happy Fishing Village

Chapter 3 Big Lobster Sale

The slanting sun wears more curtains, and the coolness gradually enters the sycamore trees.In the afterglow of the setting sun, the hot and dry day also becomes cooler, especially under the sycamore tree, the breeze is blowing, and it will be more pleasant if it is paired with a cup of herbal tea.

"Okay, stop pouting, I'll give you the big chicken drumsticks."Big lobsters were too much to eat, so Liu Xia killed a native chicken and stewed it for the siblings, since there were plenty of them in the backyard anyway.

Liu Xia is in poor health and cannot go to sea, so she can only grow some vegetables and raise some chickens and ducks to subsidize her family.Fortunately, Wang Hai's previous salary was not bad, so don't worry, he will send back one or two thousand living expenses every month.

"It's good that the eldest brother is back. I used to only eat eggs at home, but I couldn't eat chicken once a month."Wang Wei said happily, but Liu Xia and Wang Hai didn't like these words.

"Xiao Hai, you will bring your big lobsters to the town to sell tomorrow. The price is too low for those who come to us to collect seafood. You can sell them in the town for a lot of money."Although Liu Xia doesn't sell seafood, the vendors are all buying near the wharf, including her own eggs, hens, etc., are also there, so everyone knows.

"Don't worry, Mom, I'll go tomorrow morning."Wang Hai nodded. He didn't have any regrets about not eating big lobsters. If he catches more in the future, his mother won't be so determined to sell them, and it won't be too late to eat them again.

"Haizi, I heard that you caught two big lobsters, is it true?"Before dinner, I heard a rough voice, it was my childhood friend and neighbor, Wang Qiang.

"Well, come and have a look, it's pretty good."Wang Hai opened the foam box, and there were two big lobsters in it, full of vitality.

"Fuck, it's developed, Haizi, I haven't seen such a big lobster in many years, and it will definitely sell for a good price."Wang Qiang's eyes widened. In recent years, the catch of fish has obviously decreased, and there are not as many big lobsters as before.

"Qiangzi, you have a boat, take Haizi to the town tomorrow morning to sell the big lobster."Liu Xia said that there was no boat at home for a long time, and even the sampan was broken.

"Auntie, what town are you going to? Such a big lobster would be ruined anywhere. Besides, it might not be able to sell for a good price. In this way, at three o'clock in the morning, I will take Haizi to Cangjiang City, where the fishing wharf It is bigger, and there are more rich people, who can buy it at a higher price."Wang Qiang waved his hand and said, there are some hotels in the town, and there are some rich people, but the lobsters start at least ten thousand, in case those people are not willing to buy them, it is better to go to the city.

You must know that Cangjiang City is a well-known coastal developed city in the country. It has an excellent port and a distribution center for goods. For seafood alone, when the sea is opened, a large amount of seafood will be shipped from here to all parts of the country every day.

"That's all right, you brothers discussed it, but you got up too early."Wang Qiang's iron boat was okay to go to and from Qianwan Town, but it was much farther to go to Cangjiang City, the speed was slow, and it took a long time.

"Don't worry about it, Auntie, it's fine."Wang Qiang knew what Liu Xia was worried about. Isn't it just that the distance is farther, and the speed of the iron boat is not fast, so it would be better to go a little earlier.

"You haven't eaten yet, sit down and eat together, Weiwei, go to the few bottles of beer in the house."Liu Xia greeted and said that the beer in the room was bought by Wang Hai after he came back, and there was none before.

"Hey, then I'm not going to be polite."Wang Qiang is not hypocritical, the two often played together when they were young, and they also stayed together at mealtimes, the two families are used to it, and there is no restraint.

"Auntie, you are good at cooking!"Wang Qiang praised, it seems to be better than before.

"Hey, don't you know my craft? It's been like that for decades. It's made by Haizi."Liu Xia said with a smile.

"Haha, let me tell you, Haizi has been a chef for the past few years, and his work is not in vain. The food he cooks is delicious."The chopsticks in Wang Qiang's hands flew like flying, and he kept pinching them.

"snort".Only Wang Wei snorted angrily, and someone came to grab food from her, and he snatched away so many delicious food.

At around [-]:[-] a.m. the next day, Wang Qiang knocked on the door loudly. It was late and there were no good stalls.

Wang Hai's sleepy eyes were hazy, but Liu Xia was very energetic. She woke up early and urged Wang Hai to wash up quickly, not to waste time. Before leaving, she stuffed a bag of boiled salted eggs and a bag of single cakes.

The salted eggs are marinated by themselves. After breaking apart, the butter overflows and is very fragrant. The single cakes are also baked by themselves, and they are rolled up to eat. It is a beauty.

At daybreak, the two finally arrived at the fishing pier in Cangjiang City.Behind the fishing pier is the market. On both sides of the long street, there are seafood vendors all over the body. Harry, scallops, oysters, crabs, Jinchang fish, etc., all kinds of seafood are available.

There are also big lobsters, and several of them are sold at the stalls. They are not big, but the price is not low.For less than one catty, it costs about 200 yuan per catty, for one to two catties, 500 yuan per catty, and for two to three catties, it can be sold for thousands of yuan per catty.

As for more than three catties, there is no one for the time being, and naturally no one has quoted.The stalls selling big lobsters are also relatively concentrated, usually with abalones and sea cucumbers. Generally, those who buy these are government agencies or purchasing personnel of big hotels, and few people come to buy alone.

Wang Hai carried the foam box and walked in with Wang Qiang, when suddenly a scallop flew over.

As soon as Wang Hai lifted his foot, he kicked it flying out, just as he was returning the same way, only to hear a yell, and hit a young man on the head.

"Wang Hai, are you finding fault?"Chen Shu covered his forehead with one hand, and cursed at the same time, fortunately the scallop he chose was not big, otherwise, the skin would have to be broken.

"That's right, are you finding fault, do you want to be beaten?"Behind Chen Shu, a young man with pimples all over his face glanced at Chen Shu, rolled up his sleeves, and cursed angrily.

"Yell"!Wang Hai laughed angrily, it is reasonable for you to throw scallops at me yourself, besides, there is a dog leg to show loyalty.

"What's the matter, I want to fight, come on, who is afraid of whom!"Wang Qiang stood up, and after years of hard work, he had also developed a whole body of muscles, which was not comparable to a gangster like Chen Shu.

And Wang Hai is not bad either. People who have worked as chefs generally have thicker arms and are very strong.

Wang Hai and Wang Hai rolled up their sleeves, revealing their bulging muscles, and Chen Li immediately fell silent.

"How about it, Brother Pox, let's make gestures"?Wang Hai smiled and said, with your body, you still dare to pretend to be a wolf with a big tail.

"I, me, what do you call me?" The young man was taken aback for a moment, and then became furious. He was most annoyed when people mentioned the pimples on his face.

"I didn't expect Brother Zu not only looks very distinctive, but his ears are not very good, and he also sells seafood. Hurry up and go to the hospital to have a look. I know an expert from the People's Hospital. Would you like to contact me? You can save the registration fee".Wang Hai said with a smile, Wang Qiang on the side couldn't bear it for a long time.
