268 Selling Fish 2

"Uncle Chen, are you going to the county town to sell fish?" Mu Xiu asked curiously.

"Yes, one is to go and sell fish, but to find a way to see if you can meet a big customer and sell all the fish raised by other people in our village."

"I'll go with you tomorrow. I just happened to collect a batch of mushrooms and send them to Uncle Sun." Mu Xiu volunteered.

"Okay, I'm still thinking about who to go with me." Chen Xiangyang's words fell, and Chen Xuhui followed and said, "I'll go too."

"Then let's make a decision. I'll go to the field to catch fish at 5 o'clock tomorrow morning, and let's set off at 10 o'clock." Chen Xiangyang stood up.

Mu Xiu ran into the kitchen, filled a portion of the seasoning, and sent Chen Xiangyang away.

"Dad, Brother Chen, let's get up early tomorrow morning and go to help the village party secretary catch fish." Mu Xiu entered the main hall and said to Mushui who was weaving bamboo baskets.

"good."

The next day, the genius Mengliang, Mu Shui, Chen Xuhui, Mu Xiu and Mu Xiaocao walked towards Chen Xiangyang's responsibility field.

I saw Chen Xiangyang and Aunt Chen from afar. When I got closer, I saw that he was releasing water. The two of them were pulling fishing nets on one side, and there were a lot of fishing nets and wooden barrels around them, and some of them were filled with fish.

It turned out that in order to save time, Chen Xiangyang pulled out the fence first and then dug out the water outlet so that the fish could flow out from the inside with the water. However, in this case, when the net is filled and put the fish into the gap between the bucket and the net change, the fish will rush outside with the water. When they finally pick it up, most of the fish will die.

"Dad, go and pick up the net from Aunt Chen's hand." After seeing this, Mu Xiu quickly turned his head and shouted to Mushui.

Mushui trotted all the way, ran over, and got the fishing net from Aunt Chen.

"Brother Chen, let's take a net and put it on." Mu Xiu took the fishing net from the wooden barrel and handed it to Chen Xuhui. The two walked to Mushui and Chen Xiangyang together.

"Dad, Uncle Chen, you can close the net and go back." After Mu Xiu finished speaking, Mu Shui and Chen Xiangyang took two steps back, closed the net, picked it up and poured it into the wooden barrel.

While they closed the net, Mu Xiu and Chen Xuhui pry over the net in their hands, and the fish was instantly washed into their fishing net by the water.

There were many people and great power. I collected the net several times. The water in the rice fields had been emptied, and only half a foot deep was left to be unable to come out. Several people picked up the bucket and walked into the field and began to scoop water to catch fish.

Soon, all the fish were caught.

"Why are you here? This time I really helped me a lot." Chen Xiangyang said gratefully.

Mushui smiled silly and didn't say anything.

"Uncle Chen, let's put the fish on the ox cart first." Mu Xiu said loudly.

Let’s all, we first tied the wooden barrel to the ox cart and then started pouring fish inside. An adult ox cart weighs 300 to 500 kilograms. This cow is only grown, which means it can carry about 300 kilograms of goods.

The two large wooden barrels of fish and water looked like nearly 500 kilograms, and the cow easily pulled it up.

"Let's wash quickly, change your clothes and go to the county town." Mu Xiu was ready and brought the clothes for change, and Chen Xuhui was the same.

Everyone went to Chen Xiangyang's house together, washed and changed his clothes, and rushed to the county town. This time, Mu Xiu rode his bicycle on.

Chen Xiangyang had heard that Mu Xiu had bought a bicycle. This was the first time he saw it. He walked around and sighed: "This bicycle is a rare thing. Mu Xiu, you are still promising."

"Uncle Chen, don't make fun of me, let's go." Mu Xiu rode on his bicycle and walked in front. Chen Xuhui was driving the ox cart. Chen Xiangyang sat next to the ox cart. In this way, he shook and drove towards the county town.

Finally at ten o'clock in the morning, the three of them drove the ox cart to the county town. Mu Xiu took them to the entrance of the vegetable market with a familiar cart, found a shade, unpacked the flatbed cart, and let the ox rest well.

"It's sold fish, it's sold fish, fresh carp, grass carp, it's not fresh, it's not expensive. All the brothers and sisters passing by come and take a look." Mu Xiu shouted loudly, and soon attracted people's attention.

This was the first time Chen Xiangyang saw Mu Xiu doing business, and was shocked by her boldness. Then he realized that no wonder Mu Xiu could make money. Not everyone has this courage to shout.

As Mu Xiu thought, most of the fish in the vegetable market are dead fish nowadays, and live fish are half-dead. At this moment, Chen Xuhui scooped out two buckets of fish with a bucket and poured them into a wooden basin. The fish jumped out alively.

"This fish is so fresh." Someone in the crowd exclaimed.

"How to sell this fish?" someone asked.

"Three cents per pound." Mu Xiu answered cheerfully.

"There are also 30 cents per pound in the vegetable market, but they are all dead. This is also 30 cents a day." An aunt whispered to the young woman beside her.

"Boss, give me this one, this one, and that one." A crisp sound rang out, and a young woman about twenty-five or six years old said, pointing to the fish swimming in the basin with her fingers.

"Okay, sister." Mu Xiu shouted sweetly. Chen Xiangyang had already picked up and slapped the three fishes the woman pointed to just now, and passed through the gills with a rope.

"It's ten kilograms in total, three dollars." Chen Xiangyang picked it up and said, and settled the accounts.

"Give the money." The young woman handed over three dollars, picked up the fish and left.

Next, everyone rushed to buy it, and soon, a wooden barrel of fish was sold out in more than 100 kilograms.

"Let's go to the next vegetable market."

Chen Xuhui and Chen Xiangyang set up the ox cart and followed Mu Xiu to another vegetable market.

On the way to the vegetable market, when passing by a street, the three of them were shocked by the queues of people ranking from beginning to end on the street. They saw that the small and narrow streets were crowded with people, and some were pushing bicycles in the crowd, and some were holding net bags in their hands.

"Xiu, what is that doing!" Chen Xiangyang asked in surprise.

"I'll go and have a look." Mu Xiu skillfully rolled over from the ox cart, and in a few interspers, he arrived at the front of the team.

"Yuebin Restaurant" Mu Xiu saw a small sign hanging on a house facing the street. The sign was like these four words, and Mu Xiu was suddenly excited. A private restaurant was opened in the county town.

In the county town, there were only small shops selling noodles and breakfasts one after another. There were no restaurants that cooked and cooked, except for a state-owned hotel in the county town.

At this time, it was difficult to find chefs, and there were very few chefs who could make all kinds of colors, fragrances and flavors. Unexpectedly, in just a few days, the county town actually opened such a private restaurant, and the business was so good.
