My village can't be like this

Chapter 163 Selling Fish
A few people stayed by the river for half their salary, and Ding Yi had finished his addiction.

"Auntie, Zhang An, Fatty and I will go back first, and we will come back tomorrow."

Back home, Ding Yi and the others greeted Wang Fang and Zhang An, and went back to the county.

Zhang An didn't keep them either, anyway, it's very convenient to go back and forth from the county town, and they will come over tomorrow.

I brought the red carp home. There is no glass fish tank in my house, so Zhang An built a big sand tank to raise it.

"What are you doing with a big sand tank in the house?"

Wang Fang looked at her son and brought in a large sand tank from the yard.

"I brought it here to raise fish. I caught a red fish just now. I'm afraid it will be stolen outside."

When the vat was outside, Zhang An had already washed it clean.

After carrying it in, Zhang An brought a few buckets of space spring water and filled the tank half full.

Then put the red carp in the bucket just now.

This red carp seems to be very knowledgeable, as soon as it enters the water tank, it starts to swim without jumping.

Because carp can jump out of the water, Zhang An didn't dare to fill the tank.

"This is an arowana."

Wang Fang looked at the big red carp in the tank. People in the countryside call red carp dragon fish.

"Xiao'an, why don't you let it go, it's a dragon carp that can't be kept."

Seeing such a big red carp, Wang Fang panicked.

Now she even wants to offer some incense to the red carp, and make an offering of the whole thing.

In the past, they heard the old man say that such a big bright red fish is a dragon carp, and it will jump over the dragon gate to become a golden dragon in the future.

It would be a taboo to raise it like this at home.

"Mom, there is no such thing as a dragon carp or a dragon carp. Its color is caused by a genetic mutation."

Zhang An kept explaining to his mother how the fish became like this.

"It's like some people are born with six fingers on their hands, which are mutations."

Wang Fang is the traditional thinking of the older generation, so she doesn't quite understand such a statement.

Zhang An explained to her for a long time before she understood what was going on.

But Zhang An thought, how about keeping this thing in the space and see if it will grow dragon scales.

After dinner in the evening, Zhang An went out to sit at the old uncle's house for a while.

After Ding Yi left during the day, he came to look for the old uncle.

But during the day, the old uncle had something to go out and was not at home.

"An Zi is here, come and have some food together."

It's better to wash your feet during the Chinese New Year by yourself. It's good luck to meet someone else's house for dinner when I go out.

In the era of hunger, you will not be hungry.

"Auntie, don't take it. Our family just finished eating. I'm here to talk to my uncle about something."

Seeing the old aunt get up to take the bowls and chopsticks for herself, Zhang An hurried forward and said.

"It's okay, I'll eat some food after I've eaten."

Zhang Ping next to him put a chair for Zhang An, and the old lady put a bowl in front of Zhang An, but she didn't scoop up the rice.

"Is there something you want to see me this time?" The old uncle said to Zhang An while eating.

When Zhang Jianwen came back at night, he heard from his family that Zhang An had come to see him.

He also thought about asking Zhang An what happened after dinner.

Before the meal was finished, Zhang An came to the door.

"It's like this. A friend of mine opened a specialty shop in the city and wanted to collect some mountain products from our village."

"I'm thinking about the people in our village. All the things in their hands are sold to the dealers in the mountain. My friend's price is definitely not less than theirs, so I want the old man to use the trumpet to shout."

After Zhang An sat down, he told the uncle what Ding Yi had entrusted.

"Is this Ding Yi the Ding Yi who came to your house last year?"

For the group of people who came to the village last year, the old man has not forgotten.

Now Zhang An mentioned Ding Yi's name, and he remembered it.

"Yes, it's him."

"This is a good thing, and everyone can sell more money."

After the meal, the old uncle began to announce with the horn.

The general meaning is that the boss will come to collect things tomorrow, and let everyone prepare the things they want to sell, so that they can take a look at them at that time.

When the winter moon first entered, those traffickers came once.

It has been several months now, and everyone has saved a lot of things.

In previous years, after the beginning of spring and March, the mountain dealers in the city would come.

The old uncle didn't say anything about the price on the loudspeaker, and just informed everyone that there would be such a thing tomorrow.

If you have something for sale, you can go and see for yourself.

If you are satisfied with the price, then sell it. If you are not satisfied with the price, you can just carry it back.

Zhang An sat down at the old uncle's house for a while, and told the old uncle and Zhang Ping about fishing with the net tomorrow before going to other people's homes to invite people.

Although the fish pond is not big, it still takes a few people to pull the trawl.

Zhang An called his second uncle and third uncle, and Zhou Yang Huang Ming, plus Zhang Ping and his father and son were enough.

After calling Mr. Su at night, Zhang An fell on the bed and fell asleep.

Early the next morning, Ding Yi and the others came over.

Lu Jun drove a live fish transport truck with his driver, and Ding Yi drove a pickup truck himself.

"Why did you come so early today? It's only less than nine o'clock now."

Now that they are in the village, it proves that Ding Yi and the others set off at six o'clock.

"It's not that I came early, but this guy has been urging me to come quickly."

Ding Yi was also a little helpless, and was called out of bed by Lu Jun early in the morning.

This guy doesn't care about his employees at all. His driver only arrived in the county last night, so he won't let anyone get more sleep today.

"Hey hey hey, I also want to pack it up earlier, let's go back early, if we leave late, we won't arrive until midnight."

Although Zhang An had seen this live fish transport truck before, he hadn't seen what it looked like inside.

In response to Zhang An's curiosity, Ding Yi asked the master to open the car door, and Zhang An climbed up to have a look.

This is actually a truck compartment, but there are water tanks, water injection, drainage equipment and water pump circulation devices in the car.

The most important thing is the oxygen machine, which can keep the fish from lack of oxygen in these tanks.

When the old man saw the truck driving to Zhang An's house, he also ran over to take a look.

Ding Yi took out the cigarettes he brought and scattered them around.

It's still early, so Ding Yi went to the drying yard with the old uncle.

After the old uncle yelled through the loudspeaker, someone would bring things up and ask for the price.

Lu Jun's car was left in the yard of Zhang An's house, and everyone was busy with their own tasks.

Waking up in the morning, Zhang An began to drain the water from the fish pond.

Otherwise, such a deep pond would not be easy for people to pull the net.

Lu Jun and the others had to return to the provincial capital in a hurry, so Zhang An didn't delay.

Immediately called someone, and began to enter the water.

Knowing that Zhang An's family was going to sell fish from the fish pond, Huang Ming, Zhou Yang and the others came to help pull the net.

One by one, they watched the fish pulling carts come, and they all wore half-length leather pants and started to trawl the nets.

Although these pants are called leather pants, they are actually made of rubber, and only a few shops in the village have them.

Zhang An's family only had one, and Zhang Jianguo borrowed the others when he went out last night.

Because Zhang An released the water, after everyone entered the water, the depth of the water was only up to everyone's thighs.

But there are too many fish in the fish pond, and the densely packed fish crowd the fish, and the trawl net can't move it at all.

Zhang An didn't know much about the fish in the pond.

In order to avoid the situation where Lu Jun drove over and there were not many fish in it.

So Zhang An also put some in from the space last night.

"Why don't you put some up first, there are too many fish in this pond."

Zhang Jianguo looked at so many fish, although the trawling net couldn't drag them, but his face was full of smiles.

This was the first time Zhang An saw his father smiling so happily in front of so many people.

Lu Jun asked people to take out several large baskets from the car. These plastic baskets were smoother than the woven bamboo baskets in the village.

If you put it in a plastic basket, you can reduce the damage to it.

In the end, Fatty Lu's eyes became hot from above, so he also changed into a pair of leather pants and ran into the water to catch them.

The fish in the pond are fierce and vigorous, especially those that Zhang An just released from the space.

It is difficult for everyone to catch it with bare hands, so they can only use nets.

Needless to say, Zhang An, everyone knows that the small fish were put back into the pond, and a basket was caught in a short time.

Everyone has already divided them when they are fishing in the water, so they can be weighed directly when they are lifted to the shore.

In the end, there were too many people in the pond, so Zhang An called his father ashore to count them.

The weighed fish is poured directly into the water tank in the car.

Everyone fished in the water for two or three hours, and Zhang An felt that it was almost enough. If they fished again, the pond would be exhausted.

Wang Fang took Zhang An's two aunts to cook in the kitchen.

By the time the fish was weighed, the dishes in the kitchen had already been prepared.

Before eating, Lu Jun began to settle accounts.

The number on his side was exactly the same as that counted by Zhang An's father, which proved that there was nothing wrong.

After all, this is all money, and the brothers are still clear about the accounts, so it is necessary for a couple.

In the end, when the general ledger was calculated, all of them added up to more than 2 yuan, almost 3 yuan.

Of course, rice field eels account for the majority of them, and all of them are very large.

And although there are not many mandarin fishes, they are better than big ones.

But Lu Jun didn't dislike these big fish, on the contrary he was very happy.

Thin scales, mandarin fish, and yellow-bone fish, the bigger they grow, the more money he can earn.

So this was one of the reasons why Lu Jun was willing to offer Zhang An a price.

Watching Lu Jun count the money for Zhang An, the people present seemed to be suspended.

They have always said that Zhang An will make money, but they have never seen how Zhang An makes money.

But today is different. Everyone present saw with their own eyes that basket after basket of fish was being weighed on the scale.

Several people in the village watched Zhang An make so much money selling fish.

My mind is burning now, and I am thinking of digging up the fields at home and raising fish like Zhang An.

But then he quickly shook his head, shaking off this unrealistic thought.

As much as he is able to eat, he does not have Zhang An's ability to raise fish by himself.

If you really want to get crazy and follow along, I'm afraid that the money in the family will not be enough for nothing.

"Ghost, it's the first time I've seen selling fish for so much money."

It's not that you haven't seen so much money, the main reason is that selling fish can be so valuable, everyone didn't expect it.

Of the people present in the village, only Zhou Yang knew that the fish he just caught was very valuable.

"Hahaha, not all fish can be sold for so much money. If it is grass carp and carp, it may only be sold for a fraction."

Hearing what everyone said, I opened my mouth and explained it to everyone.

At this time, everyone knew that Zhang An was not raising ordinary grass carp and carp.

After finishing the work, Lu Jun was in a hurry to go back, so Zhang An called everyone to come to the table and start the banquet.

On the table today, Wang Fang cooked a real whole fish feast, without any other dishes.

All the freshly caught fish made a table full.

Everyone looked at such an expensive fish, and now they all wanted to eat two more chopsticks.

After eating, Lu Jun didn't stay long.

After greeting Ding Yi and Zhang An, he drove back to the provincial capital with his master.

And Ding Yi's harvest stand is also very hot.

Because the price given by Ding Yi was almost double that of the dealer, and it was not undercut.

So after seeing it, the people in the village sold all the stock they kept at home for their own food.

You can sell it for a price, so what else can you eat.

So during the meal, the two employees he brought from the supermarket were still busy receiving and paying for the goods.

"It seems that today's harvest is good. You did not drive the pickup truck wrong."

If Ding Yi drove another car today, he might not be able to pretend.

Most of these mountain products are dry products, mushrooms and the like.

It looks like a big bag, but it's not that heavy.

"Come on, let me show you something."

Ding Yi showed Zhang An a bag of things from the cab.

The guy actually received morels and Hericium erinaceus in the village.

Zhang An himself had never met him in the mountains, so he was lucky.

"Hey, I don't plan to sell this thing, I keep it at home to eat."

From coming here in the morning, until after two o'clock in the afternoon, Ding Yi's receiving work is considered to be over.

In the end, Ding Yi told everyone that the next time you have something, don't rush to sell it to others, he will come to collect it next month.

Everyone was very happy, told Ding Yi to remember to come, and definitely kept it for him.

A few ladies in the village sold out their goods and gave Ding Yi some nuts, mostly walnuts and pine nuts.

"By the way, how many of the little walnuts we ate yesterday do you have?"

Ding Yi cracked open some walnuts given to him by the maids in the village, and found that they tasted pretty good.

But compared with those walnuts from Zhang An's family, they are still a little worse.

"Don't think about my walnuts. I can give you a few catties if you like them. I don't have many left at home."

This man became addicted to harvesting, and even put his mind on Zhang An's five-spice walnuts.

There are indeed a lot of plants in Zhang An's space, but Zhang An didn't take much out.

"That's fine, you can pack some for me later, and I'll take them back. It's just that people in the city are not so lucky and can't eat such delicious walnuts."

After seeing off Ding Yi, Zhang An had time to relax.

I followed my father to the river to wash the trawl net and leather pants that went down to the pond in the morning.

After drying, it can be returned to others.

"Anzi, why don't our family also go to buy Zhangda Internet Cafe."

When the father and son were clearing the net in the river, Zhang Jianguo discussed with Zhang An.

He feels that he has a fish pond at home, and he will spend more time using the net later, so it is more appropriate to prepare a set at home.

Otherwise, every time you use it, you have to go to someone else's house to borrow it.

Once or twice, people are happy to lend you, but if there are too many times, they will feel unhappy.

"Then buy it, it's convenient when it's useful at home."
