Back to the small fishing village in 1982Y

Mother Ye looked at the baskets of toad fish piled up in the open space, and was a little entangled that she needed to hire more people.

"Dongzi, are you sure these fish can be sold as dried fish? If you only have tens of catties and hundreds of catties, we can go to set up a stall, but the quantity is too much, right?"

"Are you sure you want to continue to dry it? This is more than 1000 catties. If ten catties yields two or three catties, this is also three to four hundred catties. In addition, there are so many to continue drying tomorrow, and this amount will be even more." Now, why sell these seven or eight hundred catties? Isn’t the quantity too much?”

"What if you can't sell it? You have to smash it in your hands, and there is no place to pile it up."

On the side, Uncle Lin was carrying the basket and said, he was surprised when he heard this, "You toads also want to keep it for yourselves? No wonder you just said that it would be fine to pile it in the open space at the door. I thought it was because I was afraid that the purchase point would not be able to pile up, it was too crowded .”

Ye Yaodong shrugged his shoulders, spread his hands, and said helplessly, "It's only three cents and fifty a catty, Uncle Lin, why are you selling this? I feel heartbroken for selling it. It's as cheap as grandma's house, and these dozen or so baskets can only be sold." Forty or fifty, it's too cheap."

A Cai interrupted and added, "The quantity is too much, there is no way, everyone is at this price."

"Well, that's why I thought of using it to expose myself to selling dry goods."

What Uncle Lin told him also pondered for a while, "Are you sure someone wants it? Is it easy to sell?"

"I'm not sure, I don't know. I haven't sold it before, but if it's so cheap, I'd like to try it. What if it's easy to sell? It doesn't matter if it's not easy to sell. It doesn't matter if you lose money. Friends and relatives Giving a gift is also a favor."

Ye Yaodong felt that with the current him, he could still afford to lose 200 yuan.

"So I plan to take the goods for two or three days to dry first, go to sea tomorrow and dry them for another day, and rest for two days to dry the nets the day after tomorrow. If there are sun-dried ones, I'm thinking of transporting two to three hundred catties to them in my free time. Set up a stall at the entrance of the wholesale market."

Ah Cai interjected again, "I think it's feasible, it depends on your luck and whether you can meet a bad guy. If you are unlucky, I guess you can sell a little bit sporadically, and there are quite a lot of people coming and going in the market."

"Well, let's talk about it, anyway, I will save these for today and continue to post them."

Uncle Lin couldn't help but said: "You've been exposed to the sun, if it's easy to sell, remember to let me know, and let Uncle take advantage of it, earn more money, and have another way of making money."

"Okay, it's easy to say, I usually rely on Uncle Lin to take care of it. If these toad fish are dried and sold for money, I will definitely tell you as soon as possible."

"Okay, okay, uncle is waiting for you to make me rich."

"You're welcome, I don't know what it is..."

Listening to their back and forth, Mother Ye felt that they seemed to be quite optimistic, and couldn't help but feel a little bit worse.

If you want to invite someone tomorrow, please invite another one!

Father Lin was a little reluctant to sell what he had just said, hesitating again and again, and crossed out the toad fish that had just been weighed.

Ah Cai's eyes widened, "I've weighed it all, why don't you cross it out?"

"Hehe, don't you think it's too cheap? Today's products are dried fish first, and you can try it at home. I haven't dried fish this year, so let's dry some at home."

Ah Cai rolled his eyes, how could he not know what this old guy was up to?
Oops, what a loss!

If I had known it earlier, I wouldn't have told that boy Ye Yaodong that the dried fish was easy to sell and how much it could sell for.

Seeing that the quantity of goods he receives will decrease, and he will keep all the dried fish for himself in the future, will he have to make a lot less money?

Although it is cheap and earns less, but the small profits are quick to sell, and the quantity is the same as making money.

Damn, it hurts yourself and benefits others.

Hey, he's just too honest, and he treats people too sincerely, but if he's a little dark-hearted, he won't say that, and he will lose a lot all of a sudden, and maybe he will lose even more if he continues.

If this really made Ye Yaodong sell at a higher price, this kid should have pulled his seven aunts and eight aunts to dry the fish together, or he should have received the goods and sold them himself.

Grandma's!Big loss!
Ye Yaodong also understands Uncle Lin's idea, he probably wants to put some in advance and put it there for preparation, in case he can sell here for money, they can follow up immediately.

Father Ye smiled and helped to speak: "It's cheap, and the weather has been good recently. It's better to get more sun. If you want to eat, you can have it at any time. Who knows if there will be good weather in the future? If there is no good weather, eating will be difficult." There are no dishes left."

"That's all."

Ah Cai said angrily: "Okay, if you row, just row, and if you row, take your toad fish away."

"A Dong's side also hurriedly dragged over to have the scale checked. They waited here all night and hadn't eaten yet. They hurriedly finished their work and went back to eat. It's not easy to wait so late."

"Okay, right now."

Ye Yaosheng patted him on the shoulder, "I'll go and push that trolley of frogfish home for you, and then come out and push them again."

"Okay, you go, grab two and save them for cooking, let my mother go back with you, and let her push them out later, and you go back to eat earlier."

"No, no, no, if you invite me to work, I will definitely have to finish all the work for you before I can leave."

"Well."

Ye Yaodong thinks that his cousin is really good, good bamboo shoots come out of bad bamboos, his second uncle has no profit, and he is a very ghostly person, but the brother A Sheng he raised is a good bamboo shoot, but he is a bit unlucky .

Today these goods were sold for another 162 yuan and 3 cents, and he borrowed Ah Cai's weighing to weigh the toad fish. It was indeed a little more than yesterday's, and it weighed 1420 catties after deducting the bamboo basket.

Father Ye smiled and wrinkled his old face into a chrysanthemum. Hearing Uncle Lin's constant praise, he quickly explained.

"Not to mention, part of it is longline fishing. Dongzi put 1000 hooks, that's why it's so late today. Otherwise, we can come back earlier."

"Tomorrow there won't be so many. All the row hooks have been taken back. I guess they can only be sold for tens or hundreds of dollars tomorrow. I can't go the day after tomorrow. I have to collect the nets and come back to clean them."

"Dongzi is becoming more and more capable and promising. He is courageous and does more than others in everything, and earns more."

Father Ye hurriedly said humbly: "What's the future? The village is more successful than him. Don't praise him. If you praise him, he will be proud. I will blame you if you don't work."

"Hahaha~"

The two groups moved their goods onto their own carts, and they went back and forth several times before they finished moving.

Ye Yaodong also made two more trips than them, not only did he catch more toads than them, he also had ten baskets of hooks.

He waited at the pier to see the goods until the last delivery, and he followed them home.

After returning, before stepping into the gate of the courtyard, he saw rows of bamboo flats standing against the wall in the open space in front of the door of his elder sister-in-law and second sister-in-law, covered with toad fish of all sizes. .

"There are quite a lot, are they all full?"

Mother Ye said: "Your yard is even more full. There is no way. There are too many of them. It can't be filled, so I piled them up to the door of your two sisters-in-law's house. Otherwise, I don't feel relieved if I pile them up outside. I'm afraid that some wild cats will come out somewhere." Steal the fish."

"This is easy to do. Put a few bamboo poles in the yard, pull a few more lines, and hang them higher. After the fish are killed, take the lines and hang them up to dry. This saves the bamboo flats from not being enough, and is not afraid of the place where the sun is placed. It's too low, let the wild cats drag it away."

"Well, it can be like this tomorrow, hang it up to dry, there is no place to dry it now."

They talked as they walked into the yard.

Lin Xiuqing hurried up to greet her, "Are there so many toad fish at night?"

She was a little afraid of killing. Although she had to kill a lot of fish every time she came back in the past, she didn't kill as many as today.

After holding the kitchen knife for a whole day, she felt her hands tremble a little, and this was even when she breastfeeding her baby from time to time and cooking and resting.

After washing her hands just now, she still felt a heavy fishy smell on her body, and she had to take a bath later.

She has to continue to kill so many tomorrow, and she heard that there will be more today, and she can't help but feel a little numb.

"1400 catties is one or two hundred catties more than yesterday. If you are too busy, you can hire another person tomorrow morning. Mom said that you can just invite the neighbor next door."

When she heard that another person was invited, she breathed a sigh of relief. She had to carry Ye Xiaoxi on her back all day today to work, otherwise she would not be able to work.

As the month came, the child became more and more active, and was able to crawl in just over seven months, even if no one in the house looked at her.

When Ye Yaodong was speaking, he also saw the braces wrapped around her body, and quickly strode forward to look behind her.

"Why did you recite it? Don't let her stay in the room at night?"

At this time, there was no such special strap, but a large and long piece of wide blue coarse cloth.

Just wrap the whole child up and put it on the back, let the child cling to the adult's back, and then the adult takes a thick cloth strip and wraps it around the neck, then around the waist, and tie a knot.

"I didn't put it down in a hurry just after finishing the work. It's convenient to do things behind my back."

"Put it down for her, she's already asleep."

Lin Xiuqing tilted her head and glanced behind her, only to realize that she was asleep, and said with a smile, "It's easier to sleep with this on your back, and you won't cry, make trouble, or look for it."

"Well, let's pile up these fish in the yard first, cover them with a rag, and kill them tomorrow. Some ice cubes have just been sprinkled inside."

"it is good."
