Chapter 123 Picking Sesame Seeds and Throwing Watermelon
Chapter 123 Picking up sesame seeds and throwing away watermelons
In the past few days, three companies have been surrounding each other, which is why we have achieved such a harvest.
Who wouldn’t be happy netting some big fish?
It's just that the boat is parked in the water and allowed to be rippled by the waves. If when the net is closed, it is unable to catch it and is dragged down by the fish in the net, both the people and the boat will be capsized into the water.
It's a bit sinful to pull a net on the water to catch fish, one person working alone without anyone changing hands.
I have to row the boat, lower the net, pull the net, untie the fish, collect the fish, sell the fish, and mend the fish net all by myself.
When selling fish, you have to worry about the boat being rowed away.
Not to mention expensive items on the ship, daily food and other items are not allowed on board.
If the family is together, it would be nice to have someone to share things with, not just talk to, but to have someone to talk with. Sometimes I have to wait for half an hour after getting off the Internet before turning it on. The waiting time is too boring and lonely.
.
Huo Xi always felt that being able to stay together as a family was a blessing that could not be exchanged. It would be even better if the daily catch could be sold for more money.
At this time, I heard that Yujiang had earned enough money to buy a bigger boat, and he could take his wife and daughter on the boat. They were all happy for him.
In the past few days of night hunting, everyone chatted together to relieve their boredom at night, and learned more about the situation of Yu Jiang's family.
Knowing that his biological mother had died long ago, his father had married his stepmother, and there were many brothers and sisters in the family. The farmland at home was small, and the food produced was not enough for the family. After he got married, he bought a small boat and went out to fish.
His wife and two daughters stayed at home.
All the money he earned from fishing was given to his family. After years of frugality, his life was not much better, and his wife and daughter still suffered unfair treatment at the hands of the stepmother.
"Uncle Yu, put your linen on my boat and pick it up when you come back."
"Xing Le, I was just about to talk to you."
Previously, the Yujiang boat couldn't load it, so they put some linen cloth on the Huo family's boat. This time they were going back to their hometown, and they couldn't take the cloth back with them.
Yu Jiang returned to his hometown, and the night hunt came to an end.
At night, we rowed back to Taoye Ferry and met Qian Xiaoxia and others whom we hadn't seen for a few days. They all got together to chat enthusiastically.
"My family has made a lot of money selling goods these days! Your family has more goods than mine, so you must be making a lot of money, right?"
Qian Xiaoxia put his hand on Yang Fu's shoulder mysteriously and told interesting stories about selling goods. His parents sold goods and he took the money, which made him very happy.
"My house has no sales these days."
"No goods sold? Your family brought so much goods back and you didn't sell them?" Why are you hoarding them? Do you have any other ideas?
"Does your niece have any ideas at home? If we are friends, we can't eat alone, otherwise..." Qian Xiaoxia waved his fist at Yang Fu.
Yang Fu glanced at Huo Xi and saw that she had no reaction. He glared at Qian Xiaoxia: "You think we are you!"
"Then why doesn't your family sell goods?"
“My family is busy fishing, so we don’t have time to sell goods!”
"Fishing, your family is busy fishing?" You have worked hard to transport a cargo of goods from Huai'an, but you don't want to sell it, so you are fishing?
Seeing his disbelieving expression, Yang Fu was a little dissatisfied: "Do you think I lied to you? The price of fishing has become very expensive these days, and the catch is so easy to sell. My family has made more than a dozen taels just from selling the catch these days.
Silver. Brother Yu, Uncle Zou and Zou Sheng followed us on the night hunt and got several taels of silver."
"What! You fished at night and got more than a dozen taels in the past few days? Both of them got several taels! Is this true? You didn't lie to me?"
Yang Fu rolled his eyes at him: "I'm so busy. I'm lying to you. I don't have any time."
Qian Xiaoxia opened his mouth in a circle.
His family has earned nearly one tael of silver from selling goods every day these days, which is much more than they earned from fishing in the past. The family is very happy. His mother also said why she doesn't transport food every day. She just hopes that the river will open again.
Recruit their ships.
But what did he hear? Uncle Yu and Zou Sheng followed the Huo family on a night hunt and actually got five or six taels of silver! Even more than they earned from selling goods?
Qian Xiaoxia fell back on the board of the boat, unable to accept it.
he died.
He heard nothing.
All he could hear in his ears was the tinkling sound of the copper coins he received from the sales. Yes, he heard nothing.
Yang Fu looked at him funny.
After a while, Qian Xiaoxia sat up and looked straight: "My mother didn't think of it, why didn't my father think of it either?"
Dumbfounded, he looked at Yang Fu again: "Don't tell my mother." Otherwise, she would regret it and bleed.
But the Sun family already knew.
Everyone gathered together to chat and talk about the past few days. She was not deaf.
Although he was smiling on his face, his heart was bleeding and he was looking for medicine to regret.
The goods have been shipped back, can they still be sold? When will the goods be sold? But the fish prices are high and the sales are only for these few days.
Unexpectedly, these families have made more money selling fish than they have sold goods these days! Not only the Yuzou family, but also many families in Taoyedu have made a lot of money selling fish these days!
It felt like regret in my heart.
I was nagged by Qian Sanduo all night and didn't dare to refute.
"It's better not to be so smart in the future. Look at Yu Jiang and the Zou family, they have earned five or six taels from fishing these days." This stupid woman thought she was one step ahead. In order not to delay her sales, she didn't go back to Taoye at night.
Cross.
The Renhuo family has judged the situation accurately. You are right. Everyone is selling goods these days, so how can the price be better? The three melons and two dates they earn are not as good as what the Yujiang and Zou families earn from fishing.
Qian Sanduo felt extremely regretful. He shouldn't have listened to this stupid woman.
Sun didn't dare to refute a word, and spent the whole night flipping and baking pancakes in the cabin.
The fishing boats that went north to Huai'an have returned one after another, and the fish market has returned to its former glory.
"Xi'er, are we going to start selling goods?"
"The fishing price is not bad during this period. Let's sell goods while fishing."
"Okay. Listen to Xi'er."
After fishing for many days, Yang got more than ten taels of silver. Yang happily counted the broken silver coins again and again. Holding Huo Nian in his arms, he never forgot to teach him how to identify copper coins and silver.
The child's eyes were shining when the adults were counting the coins, and his hands were flailing to move up and pull. As soon as he counted the coins, he realized the benefits of Brother Kong Fang.
He grabbed a handful of copper coins in his hand and held them up to indicate this and that. His saliva kept dripping down, and when others tried to reach out to take it, he wouldn't give it to him. He also knew how to retract his hand. He looked like a little miser, which made everyone laugh.
.
Huo Xi wiped his hands with a handkerchief. Now he knew how to grab everything and stuff it into his mouth.
"Dirty, you can't put everything in your mouth, you know?"
Pat his little hand and tell him that if he refuses to comply, he will bab and stare at you. He will take the coin in his hand and scream at Huo Xi.
"When sister earns money, I'll give you a gold pin to play with."
I didn't know if I understood it, so I smiled at Huo Xi with saliva dripping from his mouth.
Huo Xi couldn't help but sigh secretly. If Nian'er was still in that mansion, how could Nian'er be short of gold and gold to play with? As long as he wanted it, his mother would probably pull him in front of him.
