Chapter 62: Full of confidence
"We had a falling out." Li Changle said with a playful smile, "Brother, I decided to change my mind and be a new person. I won't play mahjong with you anymore!"
Ge Changfa looked at him and thought he was telling the truth, "Damn it, you won't go. I'm worried that if I go alone, they will gang up and kill me like a flying pig."
"What are you afraid of? Bring your sword with you. It won't be easy to kill them." Li Changle said, smiling and waving to him, "Let's go, see you in the afternoon!"
"Come to my house for a drink!" Ge Changfa also waved to him and strode towards the seaside.
When Li Changle and Chen Yongwei arrived home, Zhou Ruonan saw the two coming back and hurriedly stepped forward to help put down the backpack. When he saw that it was full of octopuses, he narrowed his eyes with a happy smile.
"You caught so much?"
"Yeah! More than 80% of those jars are occupied, and more than 40 tide-watching fish and dozens of kilograms of octopus have been collected."
?????
Zhou Ruonan opened the sack and said happily: "A triangular piece of octopus can be sold for two cents if you watch the tide. Don't sell it cheaply."
"Oh!" Li Changle nodded happily, "Fortunately you reminded me, otherwise I would have sold it for only 1 dime 21 pounds."
Zhou Ruonan said with a smile: "You don't know, Ah Wei also knows."
Chen Yongwei on the side nodded repeatedly, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, my brother is smarter than a monkey, he won't suffer any loss!"
"Go!" Li Changle knocked him, "Are you belittling me or praising me?"
Chen Yongwei said with a naive smile: "Praise you, praise you!"
Zhou Ruonan looked at the two people making a fuss, pursed his lips and smiled, "I have already sent the picked catch to the dock and sold it to A Dong's family. The small blue crabs were sold for one piece per catty, for a total of sixteen yuan.
Flower crabs and white crabs were sold for 4.6 yuan, anchovies, red sea bream, blue crabs...these totaled 79 kilograms in total, and were sold for 12.5 yuan."
"This has already brought in more than twenty-nine yuan, and there are river eels, tide watching, octopus... not sold," Chen Yongwei looked at Li Changle excitedly, "Brother, it looks like we are going to earn another hundred today. "
Li Changle nodded confidently, "It's nothing to earn a hundred. When we repair the boat, it won't be a dream to earn hundreds a day."
"You're bragging again, no wonder my brother and sister-in-law tell you to brag!"
"Honey, please don't expose me!"
"What I said is true. If you can really earn hundreds of dollars a day by going out to sea to fish, then why do most of the people in the village still build houses even if they don't go out to sea to catch fish on days when there are typhoons? Don’t have any money?”
"Teacher Zhou is right. Luck can be good or bad. I take it for granted."
Chen Yongwei didn't feel anything at all after being fed a meal of dog food. He was still thinking happily, go ahead and make money, build a house, and find a wife!
From now on, like Brother A Le and Sister-in-law, they will live their lives in a negotiated and thoughtful manner.
"I'm too lazy to pay attention to you." Zhou Ruonan glanced at him, then went into the house and took out the fish and crabs he picked out, "I kept two crabs, river eels, white crabs and sea bass all.
I weighed the blue crabs, and there are still thirteen pounds and six taels. Oh, and I’ll keep the two octopuses when my father comes back to fry celery in the evening.”
"I'll clean it up!" Chen Yongwei happily stepped forward to take it and began to sort it into bamboo baskets.
"Today's catch is really good. It won't take more than two days at this rate. I'll have enough money to buy and refit the boat." Li Changle became more and more happy as he thought about it. "When we finish all the ground traps and crab nets, we'll make enough money every day." There will only be more."
Zhou Ruonan nodded happily, "Yes! My eldest sister-in-law and my second sister-in-law have both gone fishing. After you leave, I also want to take a look."
Li Changle said hurriedly: "Don't go. The loudspeakers in the village didn't even say that the typhoon was gone. You can weave the netting at home. Let's put down more nets. Everything will come back."
"Okay, then I'll make a net at home."
"Where are Xiao Hai and Xiao Zhou? Did they follow my sister-in-law and the others to the beach?"
"No, Lao Wai sent them to play with tops."
"That's good!" Li Changle picked up the basket, "We sold the catch, went to the hospital to see my father and then came back."
Zhou Ruonan: "Yeah, be careful on the road."
Chen Yongwei snatched the cat shark and carried it, "Sister-in-law, look, my brother said that the cat shark's butt skin is a traditional Chinese medicine, and even asked the restaurant if they keep it?"
Zhou Ruonan took a look and said, "The pattern is really pretty. If you want to buy it and keep it, you have to see who it is."
"Send it to try. If it sells, sell it. If it doesn't, forget about it." Li Changle picked up the kettle and left.
Chen Yongwei hurriedly followed him, "Brother, should we go to the restaurant first?"
"Yeah! Let's go to the restaurant first. If they don't finish all the octopus, they can go to Chen Kee to sell it."
The two of them left the village and waited on the road for a few minutes, but did not see a minibus. Worried that the octopus was dead, they turned towards the pier and prepared to take a boat to Tuxiaqiao. After walking for a few minutes, they met a bus going to Tuxia. After crossing the bridge, he got on the tractor.
"Brother, it would be great if I had a bicycle."
"Yes, when I save up money, I will buy one."
"I was at the scrapyard that day and I saw an old bicycle there. Do you think I could repair it and use it after buying it?"
"As long as the parts are all there." Li Changle sat down against the carriage board and stretched out his legs, "I'll squint for a while, and you can call me when I get there."
"Okay!" Chen Yongwei held his rickety backpack and looked at the rice fields on both sides of the road, feeling that the days were getting more and more promising.
The tractor staggered to Tuxiaqiao. When Chen Yongwei saw that he was almost at the Phoenix Restaurant, he hurriedly shouted to the master to stop.
Li Changle yawned, stood up and gave three cents of money to the master. Chen Yongwei had already lifted the basket and bucket off the tractor.
When I walked outside the Phoenix Restaurant, I saw several brand-new cars parked outside. I felt that the rich these days are so rich, while the poor like him didn't even have the money to buy a bicycle.
The two brothers went to the kitchen from the alley and saw A Kun standing at the door, watching two vegetable sellers carrying the vegetables on the cart inside.
Li Changle stepped forward with a smile, "Uncle Kun, are you busy?"
"I bought some side dishes!" Akun saw both of them carrying backpacks and said with a smile, "What good things did you get today?"
Li Changle said with a smile: "Blue crabs, river eels... the tides and octopuses are all alive."
"Live well, let's go into the house and have a look." Akun led the two of them into the backyard, "They said the snow eels you sent last time were good, can they still get them?"
Li Changle thought for a while, "Snow eels are not easy to get, so you have to try your luck. One day, I can go to the stream and cast a few nets to try."
"Okay, I'll bring it to you as soon as you get it next time." A Kun saw the cat shark that Chen Yongwei was carrying, "No one will eat this thing, so don't bring it to me next time."
"Okay!" Li Changle took out two crabs, "Uncle Kun, look at how fat these two crabs are, each weighing more than a pound. I picked out all the good stuff and sent it to you."
Akun took one and pinched it, "It's not bad. I'll give you these two for three yuan a pound."
