Back To the Small Fishing Village In 1982

  Chapter 467 Ayu

  Lin Xiuqing was so angry that her face puffed up, but seeing him laughing, she couldn't hold back anymore, so she also laughed.

   "Hurry up and work. After collecting these goods, you still have to sort out the cages. Later, you will have to sort the sizes generously. There are still many things to do."

   "Well, how many children are there?"

   "I don't know where I ran wild, the ground is still wet everywhere, maybe I'm playing at someone's house next door?"

   "You go and call them all over to help with the work. After a summer vacation, a few of them are playing wild. Let them do more work, take care of themselves, and save them from going to other people's homes all day long."

   "Okay, I'll run back and shout."

  Ye Yaodong fiddled with the basket she had just picked out. There were quite a lot of small sugar shrimps in it. It happened to be the breeding season, and these sugar shrimps had seeds of various colors on their abdomens, red and purple.

  He randomly picked a few and threw them into another empty bucket, then went back to collect the ground cage.

  Before he collected the net, he heard the voices of "I'm coming, I'm coming, wait for me" coming from all directions.

   "Wow, finally I can play at the beach."

   "Third uncle, are we going to have a big fight today?"

   "What should we catch, or what should we pick up?"

   One by one, they were eager to get into the water now. As soon as they ran to the beach, they kicked their feet and threw the slippers aside.

  Ye Yaodong turned his head and looked at them speechlessly, "Put my shoes on for me. I asked you to help me, not to ask you to come and play. Let me pick out the goods on the cart."

"ah?"

   "Aren't we going to make some goods?"

   "Others are picking up stranded seafood by the beach..."

"The others are others. Didn't you see that I was collecting the nets? Your third aunt is too busy, so you can sort them out for her. The tide has only receded a little bit now, and there is nothing to pick up. When the tide recedes tomorrow, I will collect them again." bring you here."

"Oh well…"

"Be positive, the canned food and noodles and tea cakes in the morning are not free, and yesterday's canned food and biscuits... Fuck, you guys ate a lot of things from me." Ye Yaodong stared, "Hurry up and work for me. Otherwise, I won’t help you hide your private money tomorrow.”

   "We're here to help."

  One by one suddenly became active again, and all surrounded the bamboo baskets, but there were too many people, and it was a bit inconvenient to surround them there, and some people couldn't reach them.

  Ye Yaodong took all the things off the cart, and helped them dump all the goods in the baskets onto the cart, so that they could easily pick around the cart, and it was convenient for him to dump the goods after collecting them.

  The ground cage net is really wise and convenient. After throwing it into the sea for about a day and a half, there are quite a lot of goods in it.

  Each net collected about five or six to seven catties of scallops, and other miscellaneous fish, shrimps and crabs were also swept in by the waves, which were more stocked than in the past in the offshore.

   But there is no way, the waves are still big, and it is impossible for him to sail out to cast nets now.

   Collected a row of ground cages. As soon as the last net was poured out, Lin Xiuqing quickly grabbed two sea cucumbers. She smiled happily and shouted excitedly: "Ah Dong, there are two sea cucumbers!"

  Ye Yaodong was also very happy, "This is a big storm, and I managed to catch two sea cucumbers."

   "Well, hurry up and continue to collect, the selection of a few children is quite fast."

  He glanced at the piles of scallops on the cart, and was very satisfied. This row of ground cages weighed about 60 kilograms, and after removing some shells and scallops, it should have weighed 50 kilograms.

  Some of the villagers on the shore were picking up leaks, watching them bustling around adults and children, Ye Yaodong was collecting nets there again, and from time to time someone would come over to take a look and say a few words.

  Everyone is very envious.

   "You have collected a lot of goods, the whole family is in battle..."

   "There are still a lot of fish, shrimp and crab... These can be sold for a lot of money..."

   "You are so smart, you actually put the cage down early..."

   "How many nets did you collect so much?"

   "There are so many nets in this sea, you can sell them for a lot of money..."

   "I heard that you delivered the goods to the city yesterday and sold them for a good price. I heard that it cost more than 30 cents a catty... The dock is so black-hearted, it actually takes 20 cents..."

Ye Yaodong was collecting the net, and there were so many people coming and going, he always responded perfunctorily with a smile, and people knew he was busy, so they left after a few glances, and some just left. He stayed for a while and said a few more words.

   But someone actually said this, so he had to refute it.

"Not all of them are more than 30 cents. There are also many people in the early 20 cents in the market. It's just because we picked them clean and didn't mix them randomly, so the price can be sold at a higher price. The price at Acai's is still fair. I'll wait." These goods will also be delivered to him.”

   "Uh...hehe~ so, there are more than 20 cents in the market?"

   "Sure, you get what you pay for..."

  The man said a few words, felt that he was making fun of himself, and left, Ye Yaodong pursed his mouth.

   Don’t really say it, I’ll send it over later, I have to talk to A Cai about the price, and sell him a favor by the way.

   After he collected two rows one after another, his father and second brother arrived late.

   "I came over at noon and wanted to ask you when you planned to collect the floor cage, but Ah Qing said you were sleeping, how much did you charge?"

   "Half, there are still two rows, and it will be quick to collect one."

   "How many scallops have you collected?" Father Ye said as he walked towards the cart, and when he got closer, he saw a mountain of scallops piled up on the board. It seemed that there were quite a lot of them, and there were also some fish, shrimp and crab.

   "Are you only in two rows? You actually collected so much in two rows? It must be a hundred catties."

   "A little more than a hundred catties, right? There's no way to weigh it now. I'll take it back and pick it later, and I'll know when I send it to the dock."

   "Send it to the pier?" Ye Yaohua couldn't help but said, "Aren't you going to send it to the city again? How high is the price in the city?"

   "Second brother, are you kidding me? If I collect them all, it will be 200 catties at most. Wouldn't it be a loss for me to send this amount to the city? There is also a stall fee for the round-trip fare, what a hassle."

   "Ah, yes, yes, yes... I didn't think about it. I just thought that you would sell at a high price at night. Such an order is not worth a trip to the city. It's too much trouble." Ye Yaohua smiled awkwardly.

Father Ye said helplessly: "Last night, I specifically asked you and the boss if you want to go? You said that the line is already half lined up, so don't bother. Forget it, let's not talk about it, what good things or quantity will you encounter next time?" If there are too many, we will send them to the city.”

"Why!"

  Father Ye smiled and changed the subject: "You guys are working hard today, and you know that you have come to help."

   "The mouth is soft for eating people, but the hands are short for grabbing people. We ate the canned food given by Uncle San in the morning, and we have to help him with work in the afternoon." Ye Chenghai said honestly.

   "I am enlightened! It seems that I did not feed in vain."

   "Selling Popsicles~Selling Popsicles~"

  Suddenly, there was a sound of selling popsicles around the door of their house, and the sound of waves in their ears, which was not very clear, but as long as they were selling food, how could their children's ears be dull?

  The eyes of each one were opened brighter than the stars in the sky, and they kept shouting repeatedly: "Ice lollies! Here comes the ice lolly seller..."

   "The popsicle seller is here..."

  Suddenly, one by one called father, mother called mother, and grandpa called grandpa, looking at each other with eager eyes, the purpose of which was self-evident.

  Father Ye was the grandfather, of course he was the first to pay for it, counted the heads, and shared five cents each, so they went to buy popsicles first, and then went to Ye Yaodong's side to help him collect the ground cage together.

  Ye Yaohua, too, has come here, of course he helps to collect together, and he is also very curious, how much goods can be collected by Dongzi's four rows of floor cages?

  He felt more and more that after Dongzi worked hard, his mind was particularly good. He felt that he seemed to be very lucky with money now. What did he do? Everything seemed to go smoothly?

  I also thought in my heart, maybe I can listen to him more in the future, or what he is doing, he can follow suit to see if I can get lucky?

   For example, when I went to the city this time, I really regretted missing it. It would have been nice if I had followed up yesterday.

   I don't know if he knew that Ye Yaodong bought a shop in the wholesale market, would he also think about following in his footsteps?

  Ye Yaohua was thinking about this while collecting the net. When a net was collected, he saw that there seemed to be two different fish in it.

  He leaned up to take a look, and was instantly pleasantly surprised, "Father, Dongzi, there are two sweetfish here."

  The two of them were holding the net in their hands, and they didn't have time to go over to take a look, so they could only yell at him to let him collect it first, and the net on their hands was also quickly pulled up first.

  After Ye Yaohua pulled the net up, he lifted it to the side of the cart, untied the fish collection bag, and poured out the goods.

  I saw two long, narrow and somewhat flat fish sliding out from the inside. The back of the body was blue and black, with some yellow in part, the abdomen was silvery white, and all the fins were light yellow.

  Lin Xiuqing grabbed the fish curiously, "What kind of fish is this? I don't think I've seen it before... Huh~ It smells a little sweet?"

  Ye Yaohua laughed so hard that he couldn't see his teeth, and grabbed another one, "This is sweetfish, a fish with body fragrance. In ancient times, it was a tribute."

   "Really?" She sniffed again in surprise, "It seems to smell very good, a faint fragrance, magical."

  Ye Yaodong and Father Ye happened to catch a net and ran over at this time.

   "It's really sweetfish, I smell it...it's very fragrant...it smells like watermelon..."

   "What watermelon flavor?"

  As soon as the children headed by Ye Chenghai heard the smell of watermelon, they hurried over with popsicles in their hands, and licked them a few times.

   "What watermelon flavor..."

   "Why do you have such good ears?" Ye Yaodong said angrily.

   "Must, what watermelon flavor are you talking about?"

  Nobody paid any attention to him.

  Father Ye also took it in his hand and smelled it, "It's a pity, there are only two of them, and they don't add up to half a catty."

   "It would be nice if it could be sold for money."

   "Receive it in the bucket first, and send it to the dock later to ask, how much are these two sweetfish worth?"

   "Second brother is very lucky, just collected a net, and you actually have two sweetfish."

  Ye Yaohua smiled foolishly, "It's already inside, no matter who pulls it."

   "Not necessarily."

  Ye Yaodong saw that these children were still poking their heads over there, imitating the adults and sniffing there, and patted two heads nearby.

   "Give me a quick meal, eat and work. You haven't done much work, but you can't stop eating."

   "If you want the cow to run, you have to let the cow eat grass!"

   "There are quite a lot of people who will do it. It's a set of words, so be careful at night."

   "No way."

   Ye Yaodong ignored them after saying a few words, and continued to collect the nets. There were not many left, so hurry up and finish collecting them.

   It’s the end of the month, hand over your monthly tickets~
