Li Changle had no time to chat with them. He was carrying a heavy backpack and was panting like an ox, so he strode back by himself. When he arrived at the door of his house, he saw Chen Yongwei striding towards this direction.
"You came just in time, help me pick it up."
"Did you carry it all back?" Chen Yongwei said and hurriedly stepped forward to catch the basket and slowly placed it on the ground.
"The whole thing is back, and Anan is holding it." Li Changle wiped his sweat, "Damn it! I'm so exhausted."
Chen Yongwei smiled and helped lift the fish out of the sack and put it in the yard, "I was worried that you couldn't carry it!"
"A tall, seven-foot-tall man can't even carry more than a hundred pounds. Why do you look down on your brother?"
????????????
"It's nothing, I'm just worried that you've been playing for so long without getting your hands dirty..."
"Damn it! You're still dragging it!" Li Changle punched him, "Just leave it here, we'll send the living ones over and come back and divide them up."
"I'll carry it!" Chen Yongwei picked up the basket and carried it on his back, "Brother, are all those fish used for drying?"
“It’s such a hot day, it’s not worth buying ice cubes to freeze them. If you don’t kill and dry the fish, why don’t you cook them and feed them to the pigs?”
"Okay, if you want to dry the fish, just dry the fish!"
The two of them arrived outside Adong's seafood shop. The one-hundred-watt electric light illuminated the entrance of the fish shop as if it were daytime. The three fish shops were still guarding the shop. When Wang Mazi saw them coming, he turned around and entered the shop.
Li Changle curled his lips and saw that Chen Dong and his son had already sorted the fish sent by Ah Wei, "Uncle Chen, didn't you go fishing in Chang Pond?"
Chen bucked his teeth and shook his head, "I'm not going. I heard there's going to be a typhoon, so I have to stay in the store to pick up the fishing boats that are coming back to shore."
A Dong took it and said: "Collecting seafood is a hard job. You have to rush early in the morning and stay up until midnight at night. Sometimes someone comes to call you just after you lie down. It is common to be busy until midnight!"
"That's true!" Li Changle recalled that in his previous life, when he went out to sea to fish, it was common for him to only sleep for one or two hours a night.
After finishing my work in the summer, I put on my clothes and lay down on the deck. The deck was full of snoring. In the winter, I was soaked to the skin and shivering with cold...
Adong picked up a river eel and put it in a bamboo basket. He looked at the two of them and said with a smile: "You two are very lucky. You may encounter a pond when you go to the next cage!"
Li Changle rubbed his sore wrist, "It's just a coincidence, someone else would have seen it at a glance!"
Chen Buckya didn't expect him to say this. He looked at him in surprise, smiled and handed him a cigarette, "How is your father? Is he feeling better?"
Li Changle took the light and took a sip, "Much better!
Chen bucked his teeth and sighed: "Youdao, are you very lucky? After your father was bitten by a snake, his bad luck disappeared and he started to have great luck."
"Thank you, Uncle Chen!" Li Changle held a cigarette in his mouth and helped catch fish.
Chen Dong started to weigh, "Perch is 35 pounds, 30 cents a pound, mullet is 25 pounds, 20 cents a pound, river eel is 31 pounds, 50 cents a pound, goldfish is 16 pounds, 10 cents a pound, and sturgeon is 10 pounds 6 liang, 1 jiao and 2 pounds."
Chen Bucktooth counted and settled the accounts, "10 yuan and 50 cents for seabass, 5 yuan for mullet, 15 yuan and 50 yuan for river eel...a total of 34 yuan, 60 cents and 70 cents."
Li Changle smiled and handed over a cigarette, "Uncle Chen, put it all together, 35 yuan!"
"You guys, people say you..." Chen bucked his teeth and swallowed the words "pig head three", counted 35 yuan and handed it to him, "People say you are stupid. You are a ghost when you come to my house to sell fish!"
"I used to think that we were all good friends, and I was embarrassed to say anything. After this time, I finally understood that brothers have to settle accounts clearly, and good friends have to settle accounts clearly. Only then can we be friends for a long time. .”
"That's right. You have been smart since you were a child, but you were too lazy before!"
"Haha, I was stupid before, but now I understand!" Li Changle said with a smile, "Uncle Chen, we also caught more than a hundred kilograms of freshwater fish, you can collect them too!" He thought that if he could sell it, he would also save money. Ah Nan worked hard to clean it up!
Chen bucked his teeth and shook his head, "Freshwater fish can only be sold alive for a dime per catty, and it's even harder to sell dead fish. Ask your wife to wash them and dry them, which are as delicious as saltwater fish heads!"
"Okay!" Li Changle picked up a backpack, "Then let's go first."
Chen bucked his teeth and nodded, and said to Awei: "Go home early, don't let your grandma worry."
He was still a little worried about Li Changle, worried that he would take Chen Yongwei to play cards and mahjong, and worried that he would be killed as a fat pig if he was too honest!
"I got it." Chen Yongwei picked up his backpack and poured out the water, then walked back with Li Changle.
On the road, I met villagers returning from fishing, and they walked in groups towards the pier.
"Hey, it's A Le. I heard that you two caught more than a thousand kilograms of fish. How much did you sell it for?"
"You listen to their nonsense. It only weighs three to four hundred kilograms in total. It only costs twenty or thirty yuan to live for more than a hundred kilograms. If you don't believe me, ask A Dong!"
"Twenty or thirty yuan is a lot, isn't it? I can't earn that much even if I weave nets in a month!"
"It's just that, Ah Le, you are too uninteresting. You don't even roar when you see a fish flipping over in the pond!"
When Li Changle saw that it was Lao Wai and his father Wang Lao Bian, he scolded him unceremoniously, "It sounds like you would go back to the village and roar if you saw it! You are so selfless. The fish my boss saw yesterday, Why don't you pick it up and give it to my boss?"
Wang Laobian was choked by Li Changle's words. He thought that the fish was indeed seen by his eldest son. After all, it was his fault that he grabbed the fish that the younger son saw. He held the fish with a frown on his face. Gone.
When the two arrived home, Zhou Ruonan and Sister-in-law Li were picking up the fish. There was a strong smell of fish in the yard, and a group of mosquitoes and flies were buzzing and flying under the light. After seeing this, Li Changle thought that he had to buy two kilograms of wine to pickle the fish. .
He looked around but didn't see his son, "Anan, where are Xiaohai and Xiaozhou?"
"I let them sleep." Zhou Ruonan responded without raising his head.
"Ale, how much did you sell it for?" Sister-in-law Li said, "I caught four or five dace, a few grass carp, and three small fat-headed fish. The people in the village were talking, saying that you caught one More than a thousand kilograms."
"Do you think there are more than a thousand here?"
"Three hundred catties at most! That's how it is in the village. Tomorrow it might be said that you caught several thousand catties of fish!"
"That's right, it's rolling!" Li Changle said with a smile: "Actually, yesterday I saw fish floating on the shore of the pond to breathe. We didn't see it tonight, but some people will see it tomorrow morning."
Sister-in-law Li: "Then you are lucky. Everyone else is going to the beach to get under the cage, but you two want to go to the pond entrance. If you go to the beach too, you won't be able to find it."
Chen Yongwei: "It's not me who wants to go to Tangkou, it's Brother A Le who wants to go."
"Okay! It's all my credit!" Li Changle smiled and took out the money, counted 17.5 yuan, and handed it to Ah Wei, "You take the money and the bag of fish home to your grandma, and come back quickly to go to the fields. cage."
