To say that swan meat is delicious, it is not necessarily true.
But how much the price can be sold for, Zhou Jimin is not sure, it depends on the buyer.
Of course, he would rather sell the goose than stew it.
The main thing is to worry about trouble.
These days, although it is not illegal to hunt swans, I am afraid that people in the courtyard will gossip.
If someone said that the swan was caught by eating bait, no one would believe it. However, if someone said that it was stolen, everyone would believe it even more.
As for buying them, not many people really keep them these days.
So, having made his decision, Zhou Jimin told his younger brothers and sisters about his decision.
He also told them not to tell anyone about the swan and just pretend it never happened.
"In a few days, I will use the money from selling the swan to buy a big rooster. Then shall we eat chicken legs?"
When Zhou Shumin heard that she could eat chicken legs, her eyes suddenly lit up.
But soon, his eyes were fixed on the swan again, quite reluctantly.
"But brother, I haven't tasted swan meat yet."
"Little goldfish, look how stupid this swan is? It fell directly into our hands. If you eat it, won't you become stupid in the future? Do you want to become stupid?"
"Don't want to!"
"Since you don't want to, then sell it and exchange it for money. Let's eat chicken legs. When the Chinese New Year comes, can eldest brother buy a big goose?"
"Okay!"
The two brothers and sisters asked and answered, and the matter was settled.
Zhou Shuqing and Lao San didn't interrupt, they smiled as they watched the elder brother coaxing the little goldfish.
Looking at the sun on the mountainside, Zhou Jimin said: "You guys wait for me here, I will go to a nearby village to borrow a car to take the fish back."
The fourth sister and brother naturally nodded in agreement, and then watched him run away from here.
This is outside the city, and there are many villages nearby.
However, Zhou Jimin would not actually go to the village to borrow a cart. Instead, he found a deserted grove and pushed a cart directly out of the warehouse space.
In order to ensure live fish, he even nailed iron sheets to the bottom and sides of the trolley.
Moreover, in order to make others believe it, the trolley and iron sheets were deliberately made retro.
From a distance, the four siblings saw him coming back pushing the cart and jumped up for joy.
"Wow, it's actually made of iron. Is it waterproof?"
"Yes, but in this case, we will be very busy when we go back."
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, brother, I am strong."
There is still a difference in price between live fish and dead fish.
Even if you put some water on the cart, it will be very tiring to haul the live fish back to the city.
But if they can sell it for a little more money, they are also willing.
Each of the four siblings showed off their biceps, wanting to prove that they were very powerful. Even the little goldfish followed suit, which made Zhou Jimin extremely happy.
"Okay, don't worry about these things. No matter how strong you are, can you be as strong as me?"
Zhou Jimin shook his head and smiled, pointed at the trolley and the fish in the small pond and said:
"Hurry up and get the fish, let's go back to the city."
The five people cooperated and quickly caught more than fifty fish on the trolley.
"Third brother, go break some branches and put them over to cover them to prevent water from spilling."
The four sides of the cart are not high, so if you push it along like this, water will definitely spill all the way.
But it's different to cover it with some branches, so the water won't spill out so easily.
After everything was settled, the family finally set foot on the road back to the city.
The silly swan was put into the sack originally used to hold the fish, and was being carried by the fourth child.
It only took half an hour to get here, but an hour to get back.
After entering the city, the road was relatively easy to walk, but after asking around all the way, it finally took half an hour to find the vegetable market that was about to close.
The supply and marketing cooperative has already closed, so we can only find the vegetable market.
It's because Zhou Jimin and the others have no experience, so even if the supply and marketing cooperative doesn't get off work, they won't collect the fish.
The staff in charge of the vegetable market were stunned when they saw Zhou Jimin and the fish on the trolley.
Are all young men so good these days?
Before he could speak, a middle-aged man who wanted to buy fish hurried over.
"Comrade, how do you sell this fish?"
Zhou Jimin was confused by the question. He had no intention of retailing.
On the contrary, the staff looked at the middle-aged man fiercely and said: "Comrade, why are you so rude? Didn't you see that this place is busy? Just wait in line."
I was about to get off work, and there were so many things to do, so I felt very angry.
Therefore, he does not have a good attitude towards Zhou Jimin.
"The vegetable market will be closed soon. Please bring it over at six o'clock tomorrow morning."
"Isn't the vegetable market closing at half past six? It's not there yet?" Zhou Jimin didn't tolerate the other party and said directly to the middle-aged man:
"I have three kinds of fish here, one is about five kilograms, another is about three or four kilograms, and one is less than two kilograms. The price of a fish is one yuan, seven cents and three cents respectively."
This price is too cheap.
You know, the price of pork is 30 cents per catty, and the same is true for meat. Fish in the vegetable market is generally about 25 cents per catty.
According to Zhou Jimin's price, a big fish weighing more than five kilograms only costs one yuan, which is really cheap.
"Okay, bring me two five-pound big fish and give you two dollars."
The middle-aged man didn't talk nonsense and just took out two yuan.
Zhou Jimin directly fished out two big fish and put them into the opponent's basket.
When buying things these days, you have to bring your own basket or net bag, and sellers will not prepare these things.
Because he had to rush back to cook and entertain the guests, the middle-aged man dropped the money and left with two fish.
Zhou Shuqing here took the two dollars blankly, still feeling confused.
The staff were also dumbfounded. Why are you so angry?
"Little comrade, I remember you."
The angry staff couldn't do anything, so they had to drop the management tickets, say harsh words, and stand aside and stare at them.
"Leave the vegetable market when the time comes. Don't blame me for not reminding you."
As he said this, the staff member took out his watch and looked at the time.
Twelve minutes left.
In response, Zhou Jimin ignored the other party's words and simply took the bill and said thank you.
The sky is getting dark, but there are not many people in the vegetable market.
At this time, most people have gone home to cook.
That is to say, the vegetable market is special and only closes after dark.
However, Zhou Jimin and the others are lucky.
Not long after we passed, another well-dressed middle-aged man came over on a bicycle.
I just saw the fish on the trolley and immediately said:
"Comrade, please help me send all these fish to the cotton spinning factory next door. I bought them all."
The cotton spinning factory needs to entertain guests tomorrow, and the middle-aged people also come here after get off work to check their luck.
After all, you may not be able to buy so many fish tomorrow morning, and they will still be live fish.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Jimin's family was extremely happy, but the staff at the vegetable market had a dark face.
Watching Zhou Jimin and the others walking out of the market, the staff muttered: What a lucky guy.
