The old man was so angry that he was not interested in the new man.

"Aunt, your nephew has no job and no money now. I guess no one would like me. Let's forget it."

"Xiaozhou, you have to have some confidence in yourself. You have always been the best in my heart. Tell me the truth. You have been so resistant to blind dates in the past few years. Are you not interested in girls? If not, I will introduce you to a girl..."

Aunt Jiang was interrupted by Jiang Nanzhou before she finished her words.

"Aunt, what are you talking about? I'm a straight man. I'll tell you the truth. Actually, I've always had someone I like in my heart, but she's too good. I'm not worthy of her."

Jiang Nanzhou was speechless. If he didn't tell the truth, he was afraid that his aunt would introduce him to a boy. His aunt was on Douyin every day and had a very open mind.

Aunt Jiang really had this plan, but she was still sweating when she asked.

Hearing her nephew say that he had a girl he liked, her gossip fire burned fiercely.

"Which girl? I haven't heard of you dating in these years. How good is she? You, a graduate of a prestigious university, are not worthy of her."

Jiang Nanzhou was very tight-lipped. No matter how Aunt Jiang asked, he just wouldn't say anything. She began to suspect that he was just making it up to fool her.

Jiang Nanzhou really didn't lie to her. That girl was like a root in his heart, and he couldn't forget her. There were many girls chasing him in college, but he had someone in his heart, and he didn't want to give others hope and disappoint them, so he was always a single dog.

That girl was his junior high school classmate. When he saw her for the first time, he was deeply attracted to her. In his heart, she was like a flower, beautiful and moving.

During the three years of junior high school, they didn't have much communication between them. They were strange and familiar. Jiang Nanzhou originally planned to confess to her after the junior high school entrance examination. One day in the second half of the third year of junior high school, she didn't come to school. He finally heard from several people who were close to the girl that she was a borrowed student in their school, and now she has transferred back to the city to study. After the college entrance examination, when their junior high school classmates gathered, they also heard others talking about her, saying that she went abroad and her whole family went, and she should not come back in the future.

This untimely confession has always been hidden in the deepest part of his heart.

"Alas, I don't care. Even if you have a girl you like now, you are still single, right? Just go and have a look. Maybe you will like her after you meet her. It's settled. You must go."

Aunt Jiang went into the house after she finished speaking, without giving him a chance to object.

This lunch was very satisfying. There were steamed tiger grouper, braised spareribs, crabs, prawns and some conchs that Aunt Jiang bought when they came. They were all Jiang Nanzhou's favorites.

After lunch and a short rest, Grandpa Jiang took the boat with Uncle Jiang and Jiang Nanzhou to collect the nets.

Uncle pulled the net, Grandpa Jiang picked the fish, and Jiang Nanzhou was responsible for sorting the nets. The three of them worked in perfect harmony.

The fish nets were full of fish, shining golden light under the sun.

Uncle was so happy that he could see his back teeth when he saw the fish he caught today. "Dad, the net was full today. The yellow croaker must be about 20 to 30 kilograms?"

"Of course, the fool fish must be about 50 to 60 kilograms. This is the most I have caught in the whole year."

The fool fish is also called mud fish. It tastes a bit like pork, but the meat is not dry and has no small bones. Many parents like to feed this fish to their children.

"It's really fun to catch this fish. Dad, I will come to collect the net with you when I am not busy in two days." Uncle was a little reluctant.

Jiang Nanzhou listened to the conversation between his grandfather and uncle. He was also thinking that now that he had the plug-in, it should not be a problem to make money as a fisherman at home. He was tired of the work pressure in the big city.

He went home to take the fish that Jiang Nanzhou caught in the morning and drove the electric tricycle to the town with Jiang Nanzhou.

In the past, when there was little fish, Grandpa Jiang would sell them at the dock. Today, there are so many fish that they can only be sent to the seafood wholesale market. There are many seafood stores on the street, and they buy fish at wholesale prices.

Grandpa Jiang took Jiang Nanzhou to the store of an old friend's son.

Old Wu Seafood Wholesale Company, Old Wu died of cerebral hemorrhage some time ago, and now the manager is Xiao Wu.

Wu Mingdong was busy in the store, and saw his father's old friend bring a young man in, Wu Mingdong immediately went forward to greet him.

"Uncle Jiang, you haven't come to my place for a long time."

When Old Wu was here, Grandpa Jiang would bring in a lot of fish, and come here after selling out the fish.

Drink tea and chat with old friends.

"Why am I here if I don't catch any good fish? That would just cause you trouble."

"Uncle Jiang, what are you talking about? I grew up under your watch. Is it troublesome or not?"

Grandpa Jiang introduced Jiang Nanzhou and Wu Mingdong to each other.

Wu Mingdong looked at the young man in front of him with some emotion. Time flies so fast.

"Xiaozhou has grown up so much. The last time I saw him was when he was a child."

Jiang Nanzhou didn't have any impression of Wu Mingdong, but he still greeted him politely. He had seen Grandpa Wu a lot when he was a child. It's a pity that he will never see him again.

"Hello, Uncle Wu, my grandfather and I went out to sea today. The catch is not bad. It's in the car. Can you take it?"

"I'll take any fish."

Jiang Nanzhou brought all the fish down. Wu Mingdong was stunned when he saw these fish. There was also a big tiger grouper and several sea bass. The grandfather and grandson were so lucky.

It just so happened that one of his clients wanted a fresh tiger grouper for a family dinner, so he took a photo of the live water tank and sent it to his client.

The wholesale price of small yellow croaker is 22 yuan per catty, a total of 38 catties, 836 yuan.

The price of fool fish is 10 yuan per catty, a total of 55 catties, 550 yuan.

The normal wholesale price of sea bass is around 30, but the one Jiang Nanzhou brought was still alive and kicking, so the price was higher, 35 per catty, a total of 23 catties, 805 yuan.

Tiger grouper is 48 yuan per catty, and this one is 16.6 catties, 799 yuan.

A total of 2990, unfortunately, Wu Dongming used all the cash to receive the goods today.

"Uncle Jiang, I don't have any cash on hand, I'll transfer the money to Xiaozhou on WeChat."

Grandpa Jiang has always used an old-fashioned mobile phone, and Aunt Jiang also bought him a smart phone, but he couldn't learn it no matter how he taught.

"Okay, you transfer it to him."

The sun had already set when we got home, and my aunt and uncle had also gone home.

The family was very happy to hear that they had earned about 3,000 yuan today. If there weren't too many leftovers from lunch, they would have made a few more dishes to celebrate.

At night, Jiang Nanzhou lay in bed and looked at the record of Wu Mingdong's transfer to him today, but he couldn't sleep.
