Chapter 191 Sensation
Old Man Jin thought of the tin boat fishing scene and sighed: "Among the families in our village, the Ale family and Wang Lao have the most fish, but they are still not as good as the Zhou family's tin boat. In the future, when you get rich, you will have to fish like that."
A boat will do."
Brother Li nodded, "Yes! It has to be a tin boat!"
Li Changle also knew in his heart that if they had sailed a tin boat today, they would definitely have caught more fish, but today they made someone else's money in a year in one day, and he was satisfied.
Li Asi, who was driving in front, stood in the driver's seat and saw from a distance the Li family, the family members of the Jin family and the Lai family waiting at the pier.
After looking around, I didn't see my own ship. The bow of the ship, which was originally turning toward the dock, turned toward the channel.
Li Changle and his party drove near the pier, and several boats from the next village sailed straight ahead.
I saw my family standing at the dock looking over here. I looked around and didn't see Uncle Li's boat unloading at the dock.
"Brother, the fourth uncle won't really go to Tuxiaqiao to unload the goods, right?" Li Changle thought of what the boat boss of Shaji Village said,
"Who can say for sure about this kind of thing?" Brother Li thought about it and said, "Whatever, it's better for Fourth Uncle to earn money for the Xu family than to spend it himself. People like Fourth Aunt should also learn a lesson."
He thought of the big shipping ports where the ship bosses and boatmen would either go to the OK to gamble, or go to the massage parlors and bathhouses.
He also said confidently that fishermen like them, who seek a living from the sea, have one foot on the boat and one foot in the sea, so they can enjoy themselves as they please.
When Zhou Ruonan's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law saw the people standing at the bow of the boat, their worries suddenly settled.
Most of the fishing boats that went out to sea this morning have returned, but theirs has not come back yet. Everyone is worried and they all come here to wait.
The three boats docked one after another, and the families waiting at the pier gathered around them.
"Why so late..."
The young and old who were close to the fishing boat looked at the fish on the boat with their mouths in an O shape. Before they could finish speaking, they were shocked by the boat full of fish.
The same thing happened to the Jin family and the Lai family. Jin Chan and her daughter also stared blankly.
Li Xiaoyang's reaction was quick, and he jumped on the boat with a swish, looking at the fish on the deck with shining eyes, "Dad, have you encountered a school of fish again?"
Brother Li happily stroked his son, "Yes, we encountered a big school of fish today!"
"A-niang, A-nan, sister-in-law, what are you doing standing around stupidly? Go to A-dong's house quickly and get a bamboo basket to sort the fish!"
"Oh!" Zhou Ruonan reacted, turned around and ran towards A Dong's house, followed by Li's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Chen Yongwei walked to the Jin family's fishing boat with a blushing face and said with a blushing face: "Achan, we also caught a lot!"
"Mom~" Jin Chan grabbed Jin Mu's arm and shouted excitedly, "Mom, look, Ah Wei's boat catches a lot of fish. How big a school of fish must this be?"
"So many big fish!" Chen Yongwei walked over excitedly and told her everything from Li Changle's discovery of the fish to how they fished, how they pulled the net, and the king fish that was longer than a human.
Jin Chan exclaimed from time to time and was very cheering. Chen Yongwei became even more energetic, gesticulating and beaming with joy. He was not at all like the usually silent and honest leader.
Jin's mother was very happy. She had caught so many fishes, and her future son-in-law's boat would also catch so many. She was a lucky man, and her daughter would be blessed with him in the future.
"Damn~so many big fish!" Li Xiaoyang waved to his brothers and sisters on the shore, "Come and see, hahaha, this one is longer than my father."
Li Xiaotao and Li Xiaobo jumped onto the deck with a swish. Li Xiaoqing and Li Xiaohui did not dare to jump, waiting for Brother Li to release the springboard.
"Brother, brother, look, this one is longer than me."
"Wow, this fish has such long spikes on its mouth shell..."
Chen Yongwei explained with a smile, "This one is a swordfish, and the biggest one is a mackerel, which is the king of fish today!"
Brother Li put the springboard in place, and Li Xiaohui and Li Xiaoqing got on the boat and carefully avoided the fish on the deck, for fear of trampling on the fish and not selling it at a good price.
The brothers and sisters looked at the big fish and kept chattering.
Grandma Chen happily watched her grandson and future grandson-in-law step on the gangplank to board the boat, took out a dollar from her pocket, patted Li Xiaoyang and handed it to him.
"A Yang went home to see Dr. Xiang and bought two bottles of live oil and kept them at home. I will give them to your father, uncle and others to apply them later."
"Yes, yes, my aunt is very considerate!" Li Changle was also busy paying, "Ayang, you go back on a tricycle and bring all the bamboo baskets at home."
"Oh!" Li Xiaoyang quickly came ashore with the money and ran away on a tricycle.
Grandma Chen remembered something and quickly shouted, "Bring the warm food in the pot!"
Li Xiaoyang waved his hand to indicate that he heard.
Zhou Ruonan's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law ran over pulling Dong Chen's cart, which was piled with bamboo baskets. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law carried the bamboo baskets onto the boat and squatted down to start working.
Li Changle hurriedly took out the gloves and gave them to them. Suddenly he saw the stone fish, "Be careful. If you see the stone fish, be careful not to get stung."
Mother Li said happily: "You still need to teach me this!"
Li Changle took the remaining gloves and said to Li Xiaoqing and others: "Children, when you come here, you have to help with the work. Once you finish these tasks, each of you will be paid one dollar."
There are too many. Without a few child laborers, they would not be able to work until midnight today.
"Really?" Several children looked at him with bright eyes.
"Keep your word!" Li Changle distributed the gloves to several people, "Everyone put on the gloves and just sort the silver pomfret, don't pick up anything else."
"Uh-huh!"
Sister-in-law Li's sister-in-law waved to them, "Come here and learn how to pick it up with grandma and grandma."
Li Changle also put on gloves and sat next to Zhou Ruonan. His movements were as slow as a turtle. He had no choice but to do it slowly because his hands were so sore.
Brother Li and Brother Li have been training for two years, and their situation is better than that of him and Chen Yongwei.
"Ale, did you encounter a school of silver pomfret fish?"
Li Changle nodded, "Today, every boat in that sea area is full. At that time, the four of us wished we were like crabs, with eight claws, and we couldn't catch them at all."
Please...you...collect_(Six\\\Nine\\\Books\\\!)
Sister-in-law Li regretfully said to Brother Li: "If I had known earlier, I would have asked you to take the boat out for a trial voyage. Today's fish catch can earn back the money to buy the boat."
Brother Li: "Afang, look at the fish caught on Lao Jin's boat. Even if we set sail, we might not catch as many fish as one boat."
Second Brother Li: "Brother is right, just one more trawl can catch more fish. When we cast the net, we have to take turns casting it, so we can catch even more fish."
Mr. Chen Dong also ran out. Looking at the three fishing boats lined up in a row, they were even more excited than Li Changle and the others when they saw the fish caught on the deck. "My darlings, where did you catch so many silver pomfrets?"
ah?"
Li Ji's boss also ran out and greeted the Lai brothers warmly, "Alai, the decks of the boats that passed just now were full of fish. Could it be that they were all silver pomfret?"
"There are silver pomfrets and big fish!" Lai Laoer said proudly. Most of their products went to Li Ji.
Wang Laohu and Wang Mazi also ran out to see if there were any fishing boats from other villages, and they could also collect a good batch of goods.
When he saw the fish on Li Changle's deck, envy, jealousy, and hatred surged into his heart.
Thanks to Li Changle, no boat in the village now sells fish to his family, and even the women who go fishing no longer go to his house to sell fish.
Although there weren't many in the past, they thought it was Li Changle who had ruined their reputation, so these people didn't go to his house to sell fish.
Old Chen glanced at the two men and deliberately spoke loudly to Li Changle, "Ale, that's okay! One boat can catch more fish than other people's two boats. You brothers must be so lucky!"
Li Changle smiled and said: "Why don't you tell me, we are four brothers working, and they are only two."
"Ale, you are always there every time we deliver good products. It seems like your brothers are about to become prosperous!" Boss Li also said with a smile.
"Yeah, it's just been a while, and their family is buying a boat again, and they've pulled in several large carts of lumber in the afternoon, and the money is booming!" Even the owner of the canteen came out to watch the fun.
Brother Li hurriedly took it and said: "Uncle Li, it would be great if the money is abundant, but the family still owes a lot of debt!"
"What's that little debt? It will be paid back as soon as the tide comes."
Seeing their looks, the Chen family's father and son knew that they had hurt their hands today, so they diligently got on the boat to help move the bamboo baskets onto the cart.
Li Changle stepped forward and took Chen Dong to see the big fish, "Brother, there are a lot of good products today. I will leave some for Uncle Kun, and the rest will be given to your family, but we have to discuss the price first!"
"That's right." Chen Dong pointed to the big mackerel, as well as several one-meter-long tuna and red anchovy, "Will you keep these big fish for Uncle Kun, or should you find a few bosses to come over?"
"Forget it, I'll send these to Uncle Kun." Li Changle looked at the pomfrets, "Let's agree on the price of the silver pomfrets first."
"Brother, small silver pomfret under half a catty costs 2 cents per catty, over half a catty it costs 4 jiao, over one catty 7 cents, over two catties one dollar and two. Of course, if you go further up, you can negotiate the price by looking at the goods."
Chen Dong said and added, "As you know, the price of fish will drop whenever there is a large school of fish. I still give you the price on the big ship before the typhoon."
Li Changle looked at him with a smile, "The price of fish in the big fish group will fluctuate. You also know that just after the typhoon, your inventory is almost gone, right?
Also, our fish is different from the fish that have been frozen for several days on big ships. They are all fresh fish caught today. Not to mention too much, only 2.5 cents for less than half a catty. I will see the situation later. If there is more, I will sell it.
A few baskets for you.
For items over half a catty, the price is 40.5 cents. For items over one catty, the price is the same as 10 cents per catty. If you think it’s ok, we’ll settle the bill.”
He has never sold pomfret less than half a catty in the restaurant, but there is a triangular price difference between those in the restaurant that weigh more than one catty and more than two catties.
Chen Dong looked at him with a troubled expression, "Brother, if you raise a dime per pound, I won't make any profit..."
"Brother, there is a profit, you just make more or less. Also, the quantity this time is large and the goods are fresh. If you go to the Tuxiaqiao market tomorrow, you can sell a lot at retail, and you will only make more than before.
