Back To the Small Fishing Village In 1982 Chapter 564

When Ye Yaodong pushed the cart to Uncle Lin's house, no one had come back, and Aunt Lin was cooking. The door of their house was also covered with all kinds of dried fish, whether it was hung by a rope or on a bamboo flat, it was densely dried. of.

  He glanced at it and headed into the house, "Auntie is cooking, it's really delicious, and the craftsmanship is really good, hasn't my uncle come back yet?"

  Aunt Lin turned her head and looked at him with a smile, "No, you don't come back until dark every day, you sit down for a while, have you eaten yet? Take a couple of bites here, and the food will be ready soon."

   "I've already eaten. Your fried dragon head fish is no wonder it's so fragrant and suitable for drinking."

   "Sit down and have a drink or two. Recently, there are too many kinds of dried fish, so I can only eat them in different ways every day. Otherwise, I don't know what to do. I can't sell them all."

   "Uncle, do you still want to sell it?"

"Yes, a few days ago there was a big storm, so he dried his fishing nets at home. After he finished, he saw that there were too many dried fish at home. There were several sacks, so he carried a bag to the town to sell. Didn't sell much."

"The large area around our town is full of fishing villages and wharves. Who can lack dried fish? It has been dried for a long time, and I regret it to death. I dare not stay these two days. The ones hanging at the door are all small fish. Trash fish, no one wants it, there is no other way but to dry it.”

"It's been a while, let's see if we can use a load to carry it to the county town to sell it. There are so many people in the county town, so we should be able to sell more. The house is piled up everywhere, and there is no place to put it. I don't think so. I know, so many fish that can be sold for money are kept back..."

   "Although it can be sold more expensive if it is dried, but it can sell for a few catties. It's all in your hands. How long will it take to sell..."

  Aunt Lin chanted while cooking.

  Ye Yaodong listened to her babble, and suddenly felt a little guilty. At that time, Uncle Lin also saw that he kept all the toad fish weighing more than a thousand catties, so he wanted to learn from him and see if he could sell them for more money after posting them.

   In the end, he was really cheated by him?

  Where would most people think of selling it in the city? Normal people will have no idea about unfamiliar places, so if they want to sell, they will choose the nearest one.

   And because he went back and forth many times, he became more ambitious and had more ideas.

   This is placed in a nearby town, and it can only be sold for a few catties. How can it be as fast as his delivery?

  Ye Yaodong said with some embarrassment: "Well, if Auntie wants to sell the dried fish, why not sell them all to me."

   "Huh? What? What are you talking about?" Aunt Lin thought she was hallucinating.

   "I said if you want to sell all the dried fish at home, then sell it to me."

  She heard clearly now, and in surprise, she cleaned half of the pot, threw away the old loofah, and quickly wiped her hands on the apron.

   "Are you serious?"

   "Really, I came here to ask if you sell dried fish?"

"Hey, are you really serious? I thought you came here to find your uncle. What's the matter? My family has hundreds of catties. The fish that has been kept for three or four days is five or six hundred catties. , The quantity is quite a lot, piled up the whole wall, and only sold a bag a few days ago when I was free, and there are still so many. I dare not keep it these few days, otherwise there will be more."

Ye Yaodong nodded, "Sell them all to me. Have you sorted them out? If you sort them out well, the frogfish will cost 30 cents a catty, the dried dragon head fish will cost 2 cents, and other miscellaneous fish will cost 1 cent. Look at it. Do you want to sell it? The price is definitely cheaper than if you set up a stall to sell it yourself. After all, I come to collect it, and I have to make money. With such a large quantity, it is not easy for me to sell it, and I have to take risks."

Aunt Lin's eyes lit up, "Sell it, sell it, definitely sell it, it will save us a lot of trouble if we sell it all to you, and you and I have already settled an account with you, Uncle Lin, no one wants those miscellaneous fish, how much should we sell them for?" As much as you earn, we can earn a little for 30 cents from toad fish. Also, we don't have dragon head fish in the sticky nets, and occasionally a few are all fried in the pan today.”

   "That's fine, as long as you can make the decision, I thought I had to ask Uncle Lin."

"Don't ask him, I can make the decision, I can sell them all, there is no place to pile them up, and we can earn your price, sell them all to you, it's much better to get money immediately than to sell slowly , and earn more than fresh ones. We set up our own stalls, and we have to sell them in the year of the monkey to sell them all.”

  What did Aunt Lin suddenly think of?

"Oh? A few days ago, the village said that you have made a lot of money by drying dried fish. Is it true? I thought it was a rumor. After all, our family can't sell it. We only sold a bag of it in a few days. It's a few dozen catties, and it's hard to sell, although I can earn a little."

  Ye Yaodong was a little dumbfounded. A few days ago, he hadn't started selling it yet, but he had already started spreading rumors.

  He is almost becoming a celebrity in the village now, and whenever there is a slight disturbance, his legend will come out.

   "Don't listen to the rumors in the village. I haven't started selling a few days ago. How many catties do I have to dry in total? With just that little dried fish, if I can make a lot of money, won't your family get rich too?"

   "That's true. I thought so too at first, and I only thought that everyone was spreading nonsense, but now that you want to take away all the hundreds of catties in my house, don't you just think about it?"

"It's only two days since I started setting up a stall to sell a little bit. It's also very hard work, and it's a lot of trouble! My aunt can figure out how much money I can make by collecting 30 cents a catty. How can I make a fortune? I can only earn a lot of money. Some hard-earned money."

  Aunt Lin nodded as she listened. She still knew how much money she could earn.

   "Indeed, the main reason is that the sales are slow and it is not easy to sell, otherwise the earning will be good."

   "Let's go, let's go... I'll take you to the house, we'll carry it out together, and weigh it at the door."

   "The house is too small, there is no place to pile it up, so it can only be piled up in the house. Fortunately, several girls in the family have married off, and they have vacated a room, so there is still a place to put it."

"I'm still worried that if it rains anytime and the water leaks, it will be over. If it rains again, the house will leak like a sieve, and a lot of water will accumulate on the ground. It's best to sell them all to you, so you don't have to worry about it. ..."

  I feel that older women like to babble, and Aunt Lin is the same, chanting while walking.

  Ye Yaodong could only listen passively and silently, so that he could carry all the bags of dried fish outside with her.

  Because the sky is not yet completely dark, but there is still light and can still be seen, he has to pour it out and choose roughly.

  Although Uncle Lin and the others posted about their own house for sale, they probably wouldn't try to cheat, but he had to come out and take a quick look at it, and spot check a few catties, so as not to make any mistakes.

   It's the same sentence, this is to be sent to the army, so you have to be more careful.

   "I still have to pour it out to see? That's fine, then go in and lift out the big bamboo bed at the end of the house, and put it on the open space, just to pour the dried fish on it."

"good."

  Nearby neighbors watched their big movement from the house, and came out curiously to watch. Some of them came out with their rice bowls, eating and watching the excitement.

   "What are you doing here? Are those bags of dried fish that were dried a while ago?"

   "Oops, it's really sun-dried... Didn't you say to sell it in the town? Why are there so many?"

   "Can't sell, sure..."

   "There's a lot left, hundreds of catties, what should I do?"

   "Why did you move out again? What are you doing?"

   "It would be nice if they could be honestly sold to the wharf. With such a large quantity, what if it rains?"

   "Let it be, let it be..."

  Ye Yaodong and Aunt Lin moved the bamboo bed out, and when they saw several people standing in the open space at the door, they were very obstructive, so they hurriedly asked everyone to let them put the bamboo bed on the open space.

   "What is this for?"

   "Want to help?"

"no, I'm fine…"

  Aunt Lin waved her hand, and she and Ye Yaodong poured a bag of dried fish onto the bamboo bed together, then watched him rummaging there, feeling this, and looking at that.

   "This generation is all dried toad fish. We dried it and picked it when packing it. The dryness is also very good."

  Ye Yaodong nodded, and he roughly checked to see if there were any other miscellaneous fish mixed in. By the way, he selected some to check the dryness. It only took a few minutes for Aunt Lin to pack it.

   Surrounded by the folks watching the excitement, they also understood what they were doing.

   "Hey, Ah Dong is here to collect dried fish?"

   "My God, it is rumored in the village that you recently made a lot of money by tossing dried fish, is it true?"

   "It's terrible, what are you doing now? Lao Lin's family has posted so much that they can't sell it. I thought it was a rumor in the village, but it turned out to be true!"

   "How do you collect these dried fish? I also have some dried fish at home. I'll take it out for you..."

   "My family also has ~"

   "I have them at home too~ I'll get them..."

  The folks ran home after talking, and went to get the dried fish!

  Ye Yaodong has been bent over and busy there, no matter what the people around him are talking about, it is human nature to join in the fun.

   When everyone said that they were going home to get dried fish for him to collect, he stood up straight in surprise, his mouth was open and closed, and he hadn't spoken yet, and everyone ran away.

   "Did everyone react so quickly?"

  Aunt Lin smiled and said: "This can sell money, who is not active?"

   "But I'm enough! Don't want it! You're enough for me to sell, I still have leftovers!"

  He himself didn't expect that Uncle Lin's house had sunk so much in silence.

  However, if you collect all these, there will not be many catties left, at most a hundred catties, it's a trivial matter.

  At first, I thought that Uncle Lin would collect it here, and then go to a few friends to see it and gather together, but now I don't need to go, Uncle Lin's four or five hundred catties is enough.

   "Enough? Nobody else's?"

   "Yes! You have so many here, enough for me to sell!"

  Aunt Lin hurriedly shouted at the top of her voice: "Don't take it anymore, Yaodong has enough, and my family has enough for him. He said that he doesn't want it for now."

   "Huh? Enough, no more?"

  Women and men were carrying baskets, baskets, sacks, and sacks.

Ye Yaodong smiled awkwardly, "Auntie, aunties are too anxious, I haven't even spoken yet, you just ran home and got them. Aunt Lin's stuff is several hundred catties, enough for me to sell, if there are more next time If necessary, I will tell you again."
