Chapter 66: Selling Fish

There are many second-rate people in the town. People who go to the streets to sell things in the village often either stripped naked by pickpockets or get blackmailed by the tricks of second-rate people. The villagers are really afraid of going out to sell things in the streets.

Zhang Jidong was so sleepy that he quickly agreed: "Okay, sister, you can do whatever you say, just let me sleep. I have to go fishing grass when I wake up in the morning."

"Boy, are you and your sister pretending? One day you went to fishing grass, it was clearly a matter of being done by the little paper man. Are you really stupid?" Zhang Jiling knocked on his younger brother's head. He asked his younger brother to be responsible for fishing grass and guarding the fish pond. He knew that his younger brother could do it easily.

Before dawn, Zhang Dashuan and Xiao Daidi got up and prepared breakfast.

Zhang Jiling fell asleep very late and woke up early. After getting up, he immediately pushed his younger brother to wake up.

Zhang Jidong hadn't slept enough, so he closed his eyes and refused to open it: "Sister, have you agreed to you? Let me sleep."

"It's dawn, and if you sleep, grandparents will go to the town. If you don't get up, I'll pinch you!" Zhang Jiling threatened.

Zhang Jidong got up in a sad mood, put on his shirt and pants in a mess, and was humming in his nose, very happy.

"You are stupid. I sold fish today. Grandpa and grandma will definitely buy food for us. Chaos and dumplings. Which one do you like to eat?" Zhang Jiling asked.

"I want to eat dumplings and candy cakes," said Zhang Jidong.

"Okay, I'll ask my grandpa to buy it for you after I sold the fish. I'll let you eat enough today." Zhang Jiling said.

Zhang Jidong suddenly fell asleep.

"Jiling Jidong, why do you get up so early? I have prepared the food. After you get up, you can cook pig grass and go to school after you have dinner." Xiao Daidi said.

"Grandma, my brother and I will go to the town with you, too." Zhang Jiling said.

"Silly boy, what are you doing in the town? Go to your class." Xiao Daidi said.

"My grades are no different from those who have less than those who have less. My brother's grades are the same. The main reason is that we are worried that if you go to the town to sell fish, you will be targeted by the second-rate man." Zhang Jiling said.

"Where are so many second-rate people in the town? Don't worry, grandpa and I will be careful." Xiao Daidi was actually very worried.

"Grandma, if my brother and I go with me, even if there are second-rate people coming to make trouble, my brother will have a way to deal with it. My brother and I haven't been to the town for a long time. You can take us there!" Zhang Jiling was so cute that he was very rare.

Zhang Jidong can't act coquettishly, nor can he be beaten every few days.

When Zhang Dashuan saw his granddaughter acting cute, he immediately softened his heart: "Let them go, let them go. Anyway, these grass carp are also raised by them.

More than a dozen grass carp were placed in a large wooden basin, filled some water, and placed it on a cart. The road was built into the village, which was indeed much more convenient than before. Zhang Dashuan spent more than 100 yuan to build a cart. A small horse pulled the cart and pulled a thousand pounds. When going uphill, he needed to push it behind.

When Zhang Dashuan and his family were pushing a cart by Yang Baosong's house, they were just seen by Yang Baosong.

"Uncle Dashuan, what are you doing?" Yang Baosong asked enthusiastically.

"I dried the pool behind the house yesterday and caught more than a dozen grass carp, and put it on the street to sell it today." Zhang Dashuan said.

Yang Baosong walked up to take a look: "Hey, this fish is quite big."

Zhang Dashuan was really worried about Yang Baosong's idea of ​​shooting grass carp again.

"Uncle Dashuan, I have guests here today. They are all cadres in the town. They like to eat things from our village the most. The fish produced in our pond tastes much better than the fish fed outside with feed. You can divide me two fish." Yang Baosong said.

Zhang Dashuan's face immediately changed, Xiao Daidi's face was dim, Zhang Jiling and Zhang Jidong immediately stared at Yang Baosong, and Zhang Jidong immediately prepared to give Yang Baosong two bad luck talismans.

Yang Baosong's eyes were pretty good, and he immediately came to his senses and said quickly: "Uncle Dashuan, don't get me wrong. I'm not going to take your fish for nothing. Didn't you take it to the town to sell it? I'll buy two. It costs ten yuan per pound, how about it? Catch two and weigh it."

When Zhang Dashuan heard Yang Baosong say this, he finally breathed a sigh of relief: "No need to pay ten yuan. If I put it in the town, I can sell it at most eight yuan per pound. You will count it to seven yuan per pound."

Zhang Dashuan grabbed two grass carp from it and weighed it. The two fish had a total of fifteen pounds: "Two fishes, you're worth 100 yuan."

"That won't work. You'll suffer a loss by selling it like this. It's 150. Fish raised in the pond can be sold for ten yuan per pound in the town. The appearance of your fish is completely different from the fish sold in the town." Yang Baosong said.

"Can you really sell for such a high price?" Zhang Dashuan said.

"You believe me. I sell it for ten yuan per pound. If I can't sell it, I will fill it all over again. It's a pity that I have no place to raise it at home, otherwise I'll want all these dozen fish." Yang Baosong said.

Zhang Dashuan was very happy. If he could sell ten yuan per pound, this carrot of fish would be sold for 1,000 yuan today. Originally, Zhang Dashuan was only willing to charge Yang Baosong for 100 yuan, but Yang Baoshuan was determined to pay 150 yuan. Yang Baoshuan was not willing to give less. He tried every means to curry favor with someone like Zhang Dashuan. He was too late to give money, so he would take advantage of it.

The four grandparents and grandsons followed the cart pulled by the horse for more than an hour before they arrived in the town.

The carriage stopped at the entrance of the town's vegetable market and immediately surrounded several people from the town to buy vegetables.

"Is this fish raised in the pond? Have you ever been fed the feed?" The old man who often buys vegetables can see at a glance that the fish's spirit is different from the fish raised in that kind of feed. This fish has a little wildness, just like the wild fish in the river.

"Whoever is willing to feed the feed in the countryside is to cut some fish grass to raise it. The water in the fish pond is full of living water, and the fish raised are very spiritual." Someone said.

Zhang Jiling had the most beautiful mouth and said first: "This fish was raised by my brother and I. We cook fish grass every day."

"I just said it was fish raised in the countryside. How much does it cost per pound?" asked the old man who bought vegetables.

"When I first came out, I sold one or two pieces in our village, all of which were ten yuan per pound. I went here to sell them at the same price as our village. Ten yuan per pound." Zhang Jiling said.

"You won't lie, are you? Can your village sell you ten yuan per pound?" The grocery buyers didn't believe it.

"What are you doing? The one who bought fish is the village party secretary of our Shuanghe Village. He bought fish to entertain the cadres in the town. The cadres in the town like to eat the dishes from our village." Zhang Jiling said.

"Ten yuan per pound is too expensive. The fish sold from other places are only six or seven yuan per pound."

"Yes, it's almost half the price."

"The fish sold from other places are all fed from feed, and I don't know how many messy things are mixed in the feed. Why are so many people suffering from all kinds of strange diseases these days? Isn't it eaten?" Zhang Jiling said.

"That's right. You can really tell me little girl."

"I heard it on TV."
