The Age of Rebirth: Struggle of the Eldest Daughter

Chapter 15 Sudden Changes
It was the first time to catch the sea with Su Xusheng. Su Manjin caught a big blue crab and two big horned snails in one afternoon.

For the rest of the time, he followed Su Xusheng all the time.Watch his solo :)
Su Manjin has seen what a real child of a seaside family is.

Look at the proficient technology, I can't be envious.

Su Manjin wanted to learn at first.

But following Su Xusheng's steps, the razor clams ran away after two attempts.

Not fun.snort.

Su Xusheng caught a glimpse of the girl's depressed pout, and felt a little amused.

He has been working with his parents at the seaside since he was 5 years old, and often watched his father catch seafood.

After watching it for two or three years, I have learned some techniques.

A year ago, my father sold the small fishing boat and went out to work for others to sail the boat, and my mother went out to bear the burden of making money.

I also started school this year.I usually have to help my grandma with housework, and I haven't been to the beach for a long time.

I didn't expect to help her grab a razor clam today, but also make the girl so happy.

Yes, she likes it, so I help her catch more.

After that, Su Xusheng was full of energy.Su Manjin gave a fancy compliment.

Su Xusheng didn't stop until the sun was setting and Su Jinshun called the two to go home.

When the Haihai Squad returned home, they began to sort out the things to be sent to the restaurant.

Su Xusheng put the bucket of razor clams on the ground for Su Manjin, and was about to go back to his home.

"Su Xiaosheng, don't leave yet, my grandfather will ride a bicycle to the restaurant later, let him take you home along the way."

"By the way, this is the first time these razor clams are sold. I have to check the price with Uncle Wang. Why don't you go to the restaurant with us?" Su Xiaosheng dug out all the razor clams.

"No, grandma will look for me everywhere after dark, I have to go home first." Su Xusheng shook his head.

"Okay. Then I'll negotiate the price with Uncle Wang, how much it sells for, and I'll give it to you when we meet next week."

"No need. These razor clams are for you, you can dispose of them as you like. I don't want money."

"Then what can I do, this bucket probably weighs eight or nine catties. How about this, just wait for me." Su Manjin ran back to the grocery store next door and got a plastic bag, which contained more than a catty of razor clams.

"You take these home for grandma to taste. I also keep some to share with my family at night. You give me what I eat. Sell the rest to the restaurant, and I will give you the money." Girl Well organized.

Su Xusheng took the razor clams she handed over, "We each get half of the price of the razor clams."

After a moment of silence, Su Manjin looked at the persistence in the boy's eyes, and finally nodded with a smile.

The two were talking, and Su Jinshun also hung up the things to be sold on the bicycle, and the three of them hurried to the restaurant.

Passing Su Xusheng's house, Su Manjin asked his grandfather to stop the car, the two waved goodbye, and agreed to play together next weekend.

Wangchunfeng Restaurant.Business is still booming, especially during meals.

Wang Chunfeng heard that Su Manjin and Su Jinshun came together, so he also went to the back kitchen to have a look.

"Hi, uncle, we meet again tonight!" The little girl smiled brightly, making people feel at ease.

"I heard that you are here too. Is there anything good?" Wang Chunfeng asked with a smile.

Su Jinshun put two buckets and a bamboo handbag on the desk.

Su Manjin pointed to one of the buckets, "Uncle, there are really good products today! The king of razor clams is here, and your restaurant is going to be rich again." The little girl smiled mischievously, and her words were really nice.

Wang Chunfeng looked at it, and sure enough, they were all fresh and tender big razor clams, each measuring about [-] to [-] centimeters.

"Xiao Man, this razor clam is just like a clam. I'll give you 10 yuan a catty."

The girl smiled brightly, "Uncle, this razor clam is not like a meretrix clam, it will take a lot of effort to dig one."

"Meretrix meretrix is ​​so big that it's hard to dig, but if you dig one, it's one. Even if you find this razor clam, it will still run away. If you are not careful, it will break. We have wasted a lot of effort and used a lot of bait."

"Look at the appearance of this razor king, the ones sent to you are all intact and big."

"I picked out the damaged or broken ones, just to ensure the best quality for you."

"You let the chef process it, whether it's stir-fried razor clams, steamed razor clams with garlic, or stewed radish soup with razor clams, it will definitely sell well."

"You probably want me to find some more for you later on."

Wang Chunfeng was amused by the girl's words one after another.I knew she was an eccentric person, and she praised her razor clam king, and she also gave a recipe.

"Brother, your little girl is really smart." Wang Chunfeng laughed and joked with Su Jinshun.

"Okay, Xiaoman, if you send over in the future the same quality, I'll give you 15 yuan a catty."

Girl: "Thank you uncle, what we do is word of mouth, you can definitely rest assured about the quality."

The back kitchen weighed everything and still made a list, and Wang Chunfeng paid Su Jinshun himself.

The grandpa and grandson are ready to go home with empty buckets and bamboo woven bags.

Walking to the door, Su Jinshun pinched the banknotes in his pocket and couldn't help but glanced at the list again.

"Meretrix meretrix is ​​4.5 catties, 45 yuan. Big horned snails are 2.2 catties, 22 yuan. Blue crabs are 4.4 catties, 66 yuan. Flower clams are 5 catties, 10 yuan. Golden snails are 3 catties, 6 yuan. Razor clams are 5.6 catties, 84 yuan. Total 233 Yuan."

The cash he handled in one day has caught up with his wages for working for half a month before.

Although I was mentally prepared, I couldn't help being shocked.

The main reason was that my granddaughter was negotiating business, and the bucket of razor clams sold for 28 yuan more than Boss Wang's bid!

If it was delivered by myself, it must be as much as Boss Wang said.

Although I also want to sell more money for the things I brought, I don't know how to talk like Xiao Man to convince Boss Wang.

My granddaughter is capable!

I can't bear the pride :)
Taking advantage of nightfall, the grandfather and grandson rode their bicycles towards home.

Passing by Qianlou Village, Su Manjin asked his grandfather to wait for a while, then saved up the 42 yuan he had just asked his grandfather to advance, and walked quickly to Su Xusheng's house.

The lights were on in the house, but she didn't go in, she just stood outside the yard and called "Su Xiaosheng" softly.

The wooden door opened with a "creak", and Su Xusheng poked his head out in doubt. He seemed to hear Su Xiaoman's voice.

His eyes fell on the girl outside the yard, he blinked and ran towards her in a hurry. "How did you come?"

The girl chuckled, "We sold the leftover razor clam king for 84 yuan in the afternoon, and I kept half of it. These are yours. I passed by and brought them to you. You have pocket money for school this week."

Su Xusheng stared at his cuff, which was held by the girl's delicate fingers, and she put the rolled up banknotes into his palm.

The girl suddenly approached, and Su Xusheng held his breath.

She said something softly, took a quick step back, waved to him, and ran to Grandpa who was waiting by the side of the road.

Su Xusheng chased after a few steps and stopped.He stood at the gate of the courtyard, watching the girl's figure disappear into the night.

The boy looked at the dim street lights in the distance, and he obediently put three ten-yuan bills into his pockets.Holding 12 yuan in hand, I walked home.

Su Jinshun took Su Manjin to the intersection of Sujia Village not long after.

The grandfather and grandson were talking, and as soon as they turned the corner and walked towards the house, they saw Su Yumei running towards them sweating profusely: "Dad, Xiaoman, it's not good, something happened to Yutian!"

Su Jinshun stopped the car with a squeak: "What's wrong with the third child?"

Su Yumei panted: "Uncle Han Zhao just came and said that the quarry was blasted in the afternoon. Yu Tian didn't hide well, and before he ran in time, his leg was broken by the falling stones. The eldest brother and the second brother used the quarry The tractor took him directly to the town hospital."

Su Jinshun's complexion changed drastically: "Broken leg?!"
