Chapter 756 Shipping
The people who make salt don't have that thought at all. They are usually too busy to touch the ground, let alone doing other people's business.
Not to mention the people in the fishing village. They are so excited that they want to hold the sea in their arms. How can they think of anything else...
So, when people started to come ashore, they found baskets of ice cubes placed in the open space, along with countless horse-drawn carriages and ox-carts...
Xi Yao was afraid that they would be too busy, so he took over the task of settling the accounts and giving the money.
In this settlement, so far, no one can compare to her.
The first one to come was coming back from the boat.
What I brought back were baskets of fish, which were very fresh, and some were even still moving...
The first time I encountered seafood, someone came to collect it without them carrying it out and begging others to buy it. It was like a dream. So, no matter what Lao Yu said, they did whatever they wanted, until the cold copper plate was in their hands.
Only then did I know that was true.
Xi Yao brought enough copper coins.
There is a lot of seafood, but the price is not high.
It's not that she doesn't want to raise the price, but she is afraid that people will feel disappointed if they don't meet buyers like her because of her raising the price.
Not everyone can accept such a gap, and she can't help others all her life, so she follows the rules here.
Fishermen don't care about the price, they only care about whether their labor is valuable.
In the past, after a busy day, I got nothing.
"My fish was sold, for more than one or two yuan," the first person who sold the fish shouted excitedly, wanting to tell everyone the good news.
"Really?" Those who were still hesitating on the way back couldn't help but speed up their pace after confirming that they really had the money.
Starting from the first one, Xi Yao divided the fish into different categories.
Otherwise, it would be unfair to lump everything together.
What's more, there are still inedible things in the sea. If they are all mixed together, you will suffer a loss.
Once things were straightened out from the beginning, no one would protest.
In the shallow sea area, the number of fish caught is limited, and the most common fish is tofu fish.
But for Xi Yao, this one is the most delicious, but it is a pity that it cannot be kept for too long.
The rest, with ice, can last a day or two.
As long as the tofu fish is left overnight, the flavor will be reduced by half.
Seeing more and more fish, Xi Yao frowned, and finally discussed with Jiang Dahai to find a few women to help remove the unnecessary things, so that they could be taken back to the military camp so that the cook would not have to work.
Otherwise, if the fish is sent back and killed, they will have a headache and want to cry.
Some women have not gone to the sea, and there are elderly people and children at home.
But when you see others making money but you can't make anything, you will definitely feel uncomfortable.
Knowing that you can earn a few cents by killing fish, everyone is very motivated and no one dares to be lazy.
They all make a living by eating fish, and all of them kill fish very neatly, as if they are competing...
If you are older than them, you will feel convinced.
This week has been thorough, and there is nothing Xi Yao can't think of.
Xi Yao asked Lao Yu to send back the first batch of fish.
The carriage was just for storing things. After placing ice cubes on top of the buckets of prepared seafood, they also placed cooling straw to prevent the ice cubes from melting away along the way.
"Lao Yu, tell Lao Xu that these ice cubes are inedible!" Xi Yao reminded.
Lao Yu nodded and followed the carriage.
