The fog was visible to the naked eye. Chen Yuan and the others were warming up around the fire. Suddenly, there was a loud bang not far away, which scared everyone.
It was hazy and I couldn't see clearly who was setting off the cannon, but I could hear the laughter of Yan Xiaoxi, Chen Xin and Lin Xiaoyue.
"Be careful when shooting cannons." Chen Yuan shouted.
"It's safe." Yan Xiaoxi replied.
The fireworks and firecrackers bought for New Year's Eve have not yet been set off. Early in the morning, the girls took out the firecrackers and played with them.
Father Chen started to stew the mutton bone soup, filling a large pot and simmering it slowly over firewood.
‘Beep beep beep…’ A car drove in.
Chen Yuan thought it was Zhou Sheng, so he went out to take a look and found that it was Chen Hao and the others.
Yesterday Chen Hao went to his father-in-law's house, and Zheng Huixiu's parents also came here early this morning.
"Brother." Zheng Huixiu shouted.
Chen Yuan responded with a smile, took out the cigarettes and handed them to Chen Hao and Dad Zheng.
"Uncle, sissy, this is my eldest brother Chen Yuan." Chen Hao introduced.
Father Zheng looked honest and honest, and accepted the cigarette from Chen Yuan with a smile.
"Everyone is warming up over the fire, come over and play." Chen Yuan invited.
As soon as Chen Hao and others came over, Zhou Sheng and his family were following behind...
As there were more people, the place warming up by the fire became more and more lively.
Chen Yuan took out some burning wood from the fire and shouted: "Xiao Xi."
"What are you doing?"
"Come here to make a fire." Chen Yuan put the burning charcoal into a broken iron basin and waited for Yan Xiaoxi and the others to come over: "Do you want to eat roasted sweet potatoes or roasted potatoes?"
"Eat." Yan Xiaoxi said.
Lin Xiaoyue also nodded.
Chen Yuan went back and brought out some sweet potatoes and potatoes. He looked at Zhou Sheng and said, "Go chop a bamboo."
"What are you doing cutting bamboo?"
"skewer some meat and grill it."
"OK."
Zhou Sheng had extremely strong mobility. He went back to get the knife and quickly chopped the bamboo back.
After seeing this, Lin Xinhai and others came over to help and made some mutton skewers and bacon skewers.
It was too cold in the morning, so no one thought about playing cards. Instead, a group of people gathered around the fire to relax.
"Chen Yuan." Luo Laosi shouted.
"What are you doing?"
"Is there any more wood? The wood is almost gone."
"Yes." Chen Yuan went to the back of the house to carry some wood and came back.
There is not much else in the mountains, but there is a lot of firewood.
In their area, some remote households still maintain the habit of cooking with firewood. The same goes for Chen Yuan's house, where the eaves behind the house are filled with firewood.
"There is a lot of firewood behind the house," Chen Yuandao said.
"Let's go." Luo Laosi looked at Lin Xinhai.
"What to do?"
"Bring over some more firewood and make the fire bigger." Luo Laosi said: "In this cold and foggy weather, it is so comfortable to warm up to the fire."
Lin Xinhai smiled and went to grab firewood with Luo Laosi.
Yan Xiaoxi and the others were grilling sausages, which were getting oily and the aroma wafted out, and could be smelled from a distance.
"Chen Yuan, are my sausages ready?" Yan Xiaoxi asked.
"Bake it for a while longer, until it explodes." Chen Yuan walked over and said, "Bake it for a while longer, or you'll have diarrhea."
In the middle of winter, a group of people would brag around a fire and they could brag all day long.
It's past ten o'clock.
Chen Yuan was eating roasted sweet potatoes when another car drove in.
Yan Xiaoxi quickly stood up and pulled Chen Yuan: "My parents are here."
A black Volkswagen Huian.
Father Chen saw Chen Yuan and the others getting up and followed them.
"Uncle, auntie." Chen Yuan shouted.
The two smiled and nodded, taking the gifts from the car and getting out.
Chen Yuan introduced his father, gave the gift to him, and then took Yan Fuli and the others over to warm up by the fire.
"This is my master, Lin Xinhai. This is Lao Luo, known as Luo Laosi in the world...my second uncle, my third uncle..." Chen Yuan gave a general introduction.
Yan Xiaoxi brought a stool: "Dad, Mom, do you want sweet potatoes? They are freshly roasted."
"Try it." Yan Fuli was spreading cigarettes for everyone.
"Uncle Luo." Chen Yuan shouted.
Luo Laosi nodded.
"You also have fish steaks at home, right? What kind of fish do you raise?" Chen Yuan asked.
"I mainly raise dragons and groupers there, and I also raise a few boxes of catfish." Lin Xinhai said: "You didn't tell me if you wanted groupers before, but I also have a few dragons weighing seventy or eighty kilograms.
wholesale."
Next to him, Lin Xinhai took the fire from Yan Fuli, lit the cigarette, took a puff, and said with a smile: "You are reluctant to sell those big dragons."
"I'm reluctant to sell it, but if Chen Yuan wants it, I can give it to him." Luo Laosi said with a smile. Yan Fuli also wanted to light cigarettes for Luo Laosi. Chen Yuan saw that he had taken Yan Fuli's lighter and helped Luo Lao Si.
Four Points cigarettes.
"My uncle owns a villa. He wants to buy some seafood products after the new year. He wants good products." Chen Yuandao.
"It's easy to say, whether it's farmed or wild, as long as it's available in Zhapo, I can get it," Luo Laosi said.
Yan Fuli clasped his hands in his fists and said with a smile: "After the new year, I plan to prepare some seafood in the villa. The demand for seafood here is still quite large."
Luo Laosi said ‘hmm’ and said: “Tell me what kind of seafood you want in the future, and I will help arrange it. But I can only guarantee that it will be fresh when delivered...it’s too far away, and delivery will take some time.”
"Can it be transported by air?" Yan Fuli said: "If the price is higher, then it is higher. There are still many rich people in Chengdu."
"It can be transported by air." Lin Xinhai thought for a while and said, "Is the purchase volume large? If the purchase volume is large, we can find someone here to send it to the airport."
"It depends on the season. In the off-season, it's 20,000 to 30,000 a month. In the peak season, which is summer... the monthly purchase volume can be more than 200,000." Yan Fuli didn't want it for himself.
Yan Fuli, who runs a villa, only asks for goods when there is an order. Xiao Xi's second uncle and brother-in-law, they run a supper shop, which is considered a chain store, and Yan Fuli also has shares.
There are many villas and farmhouses at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain. If there is a stable seafood purchase channel, he can also sell seafood here.
"Add WeChat and let us know what seafood you want in the future," Lin Xinhai said.
"Thank you, brother." Yan Fuli smiled and took out his mobile phone.
"Thank you for everything. We are all one family." Lin Xinhai chuckled and said, "I regard Chen Yuan as my own son."
"Ouch, Master... you are so partial, so blatant." Zhou Sheng shouted.
Lin Xinhai rolled his eyes at Zhou Sheng: "You are the same, we are all sons."
"I feel like you're scolding us?" Chen Yuan looked at Zhou Sheng.
Zhou Sheng shrugged, smiled and leaned on Lin Xinhai's shoulder, looking at Yan Fuli: "Uncle Yan, tell us what kind of seafood you want in the future. In addition to some common farmed products, such as Eastern star spot, rat spot, giant grouper, etc.,
If you need anything, you can tell us in advance. We can get all kinds of rare seafood, regardless of season."
"Those wild groupers should be very expensive."
"Eastern star spots cost two to three hundred yuan per catty, mainly depending on size. The bigger they are, the more expensive they are. Rat spots depend on appearance, size, and color. Cheap rat spots cost several hundred yuan per catty, and expensive ones cost more.
About one thousand or two thousand."
"Can Rat Spot cost two thousand yuan?" Luo Laosi looked over and said.
"It's in good condition and alive." Lin Xinhai said: "Two thousand is about the same. But it's usually not that expensive, a few hundred yuan more, just over a thousand dollars. Rat spots are actually just like that, and red spots taste good, and the price is okay.
It’s not expensive, only more than 100 yuan per catty. That kind of grouper is pretty good.”
“Is there any cheap and good tuna?”
Lin Xinhai nodded: "That's yellowfin tuna, 40 to 50 kilograms, the fatter kind. Normally the price is between 120 and 170 yuan. If it's worse, it costs 70 or 80 yuan per kilogram.
.The price of fresh products changes frequently. If you want to send it here, it depends on whether it is more cost-effective or frozen. Unless there are some particularly rare and precious seafood, there is no need to buy fresh products."
"Do you have a lot of oysters over there?"
"many."
"What's the price?"
“Local prices are very cheap.”
"My second brother and third brother own a chain of late-night snack shops. There is a huge demand for seafood in the mainland. If there is a stable channel, we are going to build a refrigerated truck here to deliver some seafood."
"That's okay. If you are responsible for the transportation yourself, we can help introduce the source of goods and ensure that you get the same wholesale price as the local one."
