NOVEL WEB Chapter 234
At 3 o'clock in the morning, Sun Qingjun came to the door of the purchasing station with a shaky step, and yawned from time to time.
He drank too much yesterday, and he was still a little drunk now.
"Dong Dong Dong~"
He reached out and knocked on the door twice.
There was no response. It was probably because He Xijun was also drunk and hadn't woken up yet.
He reached out and knocked twice more.
This time there was movement, and a sound of slippers came from the yard.
Sun Qingjun stood at the door and waited. After a while, he heard someone pulling the bolt behind the door.
"Squeak~"
The door was finally opened.
"He... Shit, Ayang, why are you here?"
Sun Qingjun thought it was He Xijun who opened the door, but he saw Chu Yang, who was also yawning, sticking his head out from behind the door.
"Did you sleep here last night?"
Sun Qingjun's face became serious.
Chu Yang glanced at him, understood what he was thinking, and asked back:
"Uncle Jun, do you think I can do anything about what I drank yesterday?"
Sun Qingjun thought about it, his face relaxed, and nodded: "That's right, but why are you here, didn't you go back?"
"Sister He vomited a lot in the middle of the night, Haidai had no choice but to call me." Chu Yang explained.
You asked about the phone number that Haidai brought from home, of course it was Chu Yang who gave it.
After he changed his mobile phone, he gave the previous Huaqiangbei version N95 to Haidai, and saved Chu Xi's phone number in it for the convenience of the two little ones to contact.
"Oh, is that person okay?" Sun Qingjun asked with concern.
Chu Yang yawned and said, "It's okay, he vomited twice and drank a glass of honey water, and he fell asleep, but he almost tired me to death."
"You are still complaining, he is blocking the wine for you." Sun Qingjun laughed and scolded.
Not long after Uncle Jun arrived, Hu Erhu and Uncle Hu also arrived at the purchasing station, as well as Haidong and Aunt Zhang, who were on their first day of work.
So they all started to get busy. Uncle Jun turned on the lights and put out the scales, baskets, buckets and stools.
Hu Erhu and Uncle Hu cleaned up the freezer and swept the floor.
Aunt Zhang went into the kitchen to prepare breakfast for everyone.
Chu Yang temporarily took He Xijun's place and sat on the table, ready to keep accounts and pay.
Before 4 o'clock, fishermen began to come to the purchasing station to sell goods.
They were all common fish caught by the sea, such as dragon head fish, mud snails, spicy snails, flower crabs, and razor clams.
Only the half bucket of small fish with special shapes brought by Lin Pandi made him feel a little excited.
This fish has a round body a bit like a loach, with eyes on the top of the head, protruding upwards like a frog, thick ventral fins, long like feet, and a "big flag" fluttering in the wind on its back.
"Hey, sister-in-law Pan Di, where did you get so many jumping fish?"
Jumping fish, mudskippers, this thing is quite cute, and it will open its mouth to show off when it meets its peers
Chu Yang opened the lid of the bucket and took a look, then took out a finger-sized jumping fish, put it in his palm and played with it and asked.
"Hey, I don't have that ability, it was my old Zhang who caught it in a bamboo tube." Lin Pan Di replied with a smile.
Her husband is the team leader of the third group in the village. His surname is Zhang, and his name is Zhang Deqian. He is older than Chu Yang and is considered to be of the same generation.
Last time Chu Yang asked Aunt Sun to treat her, she was also there.
"Ayang, your brother Deqian has spent a lot of effort to catch these little things. He has inserted dozens of bamboo tubes. You can't fool your sister-in-law about the price." Lin Pan Di grinned and said in a loud voice that is common among women in fishing villages.
Chu Yang smiled, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I can't cheat you."
The jumping fish is also called mudskipper. There are quite a lot of this kind of fish. You can basically see their whereabouts in the wetland mud on the beach. The key is that this kind of fish is small and hard to catch.
They look like loaches. They hide in the mud when they are free. When they encounter danger, they will jump around like carps, and even use their ventral fins to support their bodies and jump away. There is also a layer of slippery mucus on their bodies, which is more slippery than eels, so it is extremely difficult to catch.
Of course, no matter how cunning the prey is, it can't beat the hunter, because the jumping fish has delicious meat and is rich in nutrients. In particular, people on the coast believe that children can be strong and healthy if they eat it, so our ancestors invented a way to catch jumping fish hundreds of years ago.
Because jumping fish will first dig a hole on the beach, then rest and hunt by the hole, and quickly jump into the hole when they encounter danger.
In this way, fishermen do not attack mudskippers when they see them. They first find their holes, insert bamboo tubes deep into the holes, and then drive them away with sticks. The mudskippers will jump into the bamboo tubes after being frightened.
However, the efficiency is only slightly better than digging holes. It is good to get one or two kilograms a day.
Like Lin Pandi's family, they got half a bucket, weighing six or seven kilograms, which is definitely a big harvest. In the words of the air force guys, it is a "explosive harvest".
"How about this, sister-in-law, these mudskippersI'm not going to sell the fish, I'll keep it for myself to taste, can I give it to you at 50 yuan per catty? "
This fish is hard to catch and tastes good, plus it has the 'child' buff bonus, so the price has always been very good, comparable to grouper.
If you meet a boss with children at home, he will be willing to pay hundreds of yuan per catty.
Of course, that's the end of the market. In the current fishing village, it's generally 30 or 40 yuan per catty.
Chu Yang gave 50, which is already quite good.
"Okay, okay, sister-in-law knows that I didn't make a mistake about you. When your brother comes back tomorrow, go to my house for a drink, and sister-in-law will stew pork feet and braised pork for you." Lin Pandi smiled and patted Chu Yang's arm gently, and said.
"Thank you very much, sister-in-law. Let me know when my brother is at home." Chu Yang replied.
Someone next to him joked, "Ayang, you are wrong. I should let you know when Zhang Laosan is not at home. "
Suddenly, there was a burst of laughter.
"Get lost." Lin Pandi glared at the old man who had spoken. After all, this man was her husband's cousin.
She blushed again and glanced at Chu Yang secretly.
"This college student is fair and gentle, completely different from the rough man at home. If it were him..."
It's a pity that her behavior was destined to be a flirtation to the blind. No matter how hungry Chu Yang was, he would never seduce a married woman. That would ruin his reputation.
"7 jin 2 liang, 360 yuan, you count."
Chu Yang took the bill and handed the money to Lin Pandi.
The latter took it and turned away without saying a word.
"Hey, you just invited me to your house for dinner, and now you're angry?"
"It's true that women can turn their faces faster than turning pages! "Chu Yang sighed.
More and more people were selling fish, and they were busy until after 8 o'clock, and finally there was a little more time.
Chu Yang added a little, and the flow of goods received today should have exceeded 30,000. After sending them to the city for resale, there should be a profit of tens of millions of yuan.
"Okay, it's equivalent to opening a treasure chest." Chu Yang nodded with satisfaction.
Just at this time, Aunt Zhang called everyone to have breakfast - two breakfasts at the purchasing station, breakfast at 3 o'clock in the morning is breakfast or supper, and breakfast at 7 or 8 o'clock is the real breakfast.
"Then I'll go and call Sister He to get up."
