After seeing off the soldier's brother, Lu Dong returned to the orchard to pick up the net, and asked Hu Chunlan to look at the plate.

Hu Chunlan looked at it for a while: "There were a lot of these vinegar plates before, but they were all smashed away later. It's not a rare thing."

Lu Dong was inevitably disappointed: "Uncle Qi said that Uncle Second sold one for 50 yuan."

Hu Chunlan thought about it: "If this happens, the year before yesterday was the same as the year before yesterday."

Even if it is only fifty yuan, it is the most valuable thing in his hand. Lu Dong solemnly put it away and plans to take time to go to Shunshan Cultural Market.

It's OK to sell 50.

It only costs ten yuan a day to be a small worker on the construction site.

After taking the fishing net and water bag, Lu Dong returned to the Triangle Dam and continued to cast nets to fish, and then tried his luck. Even if there were only fish, it would be fine, after all, it could be sold for money.

All the lees were sunburned to death.

The water level dropped a little further, and the river surface was only fifteen or sixteen meters wide.

Lu Dong scattered a net, and before he could pull it up, suddenly a sizzling song came from the underworld, followed by the familiar smell of chicken manure.

"Today, I drink the celebration wine, and I will never stop until my ambitions are fulfilled. I will show my skills in the future and I will shed my blood to write about the spring and autumn..."

Sure enough, the iron cockerel Lu Jianbin hung a radio on his wrist, went up the river bank, put away two bamboo poles, and came to the Triangle Dam.

"What a big silver carp!"

The fishing net just came out of water, and the iron rooster widened his eyes: "There is something else, pull it up quickly, don't run away. Dongzi, you're lucky!"

Lu Dong picked up the fishing net and placed it on the dam: "There are a lot of fish these two days, and when the gate is landed upstream, good luck will come to an end."

After opening the fishing net and throwing away the garbage, Lu Dong first picked out a catfish. This was much larger than what he had in the morning. It was heavy in his hand, and it was probably three pounds faster.

This is the earth catfish from the north.

"Catfish are easy to feed, but they can't die easily." The iron rooster is like an expert: "Last year I caught one and threw it into the chicken manure tank. I lived for more than half a year, and when I took it out, I had five pounds."

Lu Dong couldn't help but say, "Uncle Tie, can we not talk about chicken manure? Do you still ask people to eat catfish?"

Tie Gongji didn't care: "What's wrong with this? What's going on is chicken manure, what's growing is meat! It's not poisonous! Look at your uncle Tie is fine after eating it."

There was no way to speak, Lu Dong picked out the silver carp that was more than two pounds and stuffed it directly: "Go back and stew the soup for my sister."

The iron rooster didn't hear what Lu Dong said, so she pulled the seedlings from outside the dike and came back to penetrate the gills of the silver carp. Her eyes happened to see a pile of sandbags under the dike.

"Dongzi, the water has fallen." The iron cockerel felt sad and said, "When the water is smaller, will we drag the chicken cage out?"

Lu Dong had no choice but to say: "It's useless to drag it out."

The iron cock did not give up: "Can you sell scrap iron! You get one-fifth of the money... no, one-quarter."

How many sandbags are piled on the chicken cage? To talk about tons! Lu Dong can only say: "Let's talk about it."

Looking at the sandbags like hills under the river, the iron rooster looked sad, as if he was reluctant to leave, and he was not in a hurry to leave. The silver carp threw it into the grass nest under the shade of the tree, and sat on the triangular dam without saying a word.

I don’t know if he was watching fishing or saying goodbye to the chicken cage.

Lu Dong scattered two nets one after another, one with a few white crucian carp strips, and two catfishes came up on the other net, one big and one small, and the one big one was close to three pounds.

There are fewer lees, so continue to throw them into the sun.

The sun was very poisonous, and Lu Dong was sweating profusely.

The sound of motorcycles came from the north, and the noise was very loud. In addition, the river bank had some ups and downs, and the light heard the sound but could not see people.

"Who is this?" The iron cock stood up and looked north: "I don't repair the muffler, I can hear it all over the three miles."

When Lu Dong looked north, he saw dust flying. When he cast a net again, he came up with the net, and saw a motorcycle with a tow bucket.

The cyclists are very brave and drive along the river bank. The three-dimensional road is not easy to walk on.

As I got closer, the noise made my ears hurt. It was an orange Jialing CJ50. This car is common in rural areas. It is hung with a self-welded trailer, which can run, pull and be sturdy.

The middle-aged woman riding the bike, like most rural women, has a dark face and a girl about ten years old in the back seat, with her little face red.

The middle-aged woman saw the fishing net on Lu Dong's hand and stopped the car.

The iron cock stuffed his ears: "Big girl, this car is time to be repaired!"

"Prepare to change to a new car!" The middle-aged woman turned off the engine and smiled with a cheerful smile: "It won't be used in a while."

Lu Dong glanced at the tow bucket, and there was a large water tank inside, and there were fish swimming.

The middle-aged woman got out of the car, carried the little girl down, and asked Lu Dong: "Big brother, have you caught the fish?"

Lu Dong signaled the rope to tie the water bag: "There are some."

The iron rooster dry farm asked immediately: "Do you collect fish?"

The middle-aged woman said, "Just as long as catfish and black fish, don't have anything else."

"Why?" The iron cock didn't understand.

"It's too hot, other fish are so dying, and it's not worth it if you die." The middle-aged woman said the truth: "These two are easy to support and don't die easily."

Lu Dong needs money: "There are catfish."

"Big boy, don't be naughty!" The middle-aged woman scolded the child first, and then said to Lu Dong: "Big brother, can you tell me to take a look first?"

Lu Dong pulled the water bag, untied the rope to tie the mouth, and mentioned it to the woman: "It's all here."

There were three catfish in total, two big and one small. The woman got up and asked, "How to sell it?"

Before Lu Dong could speak, Tie Gongji reminded: "Cooking one pound can be sold for three yuan."

Catfish are very popular in Quannan area. Even in the era when the wages of employees of the provincial capital are seven or eight hundred yuan, like when the retail price during the Mid-Autumn Festival and the Chinese New Year can reach five or six yuan per catty.

Later, for various reasons, the catfish fell from the altar.

The middle-aged woman glanced at the iron rooster: "That's the price."

Lu Dong asked the woman: "The fish is here, you bid, if you don't fit, I'll put it back."

"The big one is five yuan per, and the small one is three yuan." The middle-aged woman seemed very happy: "I don't want to lie. The fish in the car are charged at this price. The price of fish with the reservoir lifts the gate will drop. I will come out in a hot day and I will have to make a profit."

Lu Dong didn't understand the market, so he turned to see Uncle Tie, nodded when he saw him, and said, "The fish is yours."

The middle-aged woman caught the fish and put it in the drag bucket, and pointed out three or five pieces. Lu Dong shook her head: "I can't find it."

His pocket is cleaner than his face, and his personal savings are zero!

The woman turned her pockets and found three red 1 yuan, and gave them to Lu Dong together with two 5 yuan.

When the money was received, Lu Dong felt heavy for some reason.

The next moment, Lu Dong understood that apart from the money that was charged for the head, this was the first money he earned from labor at the age of eighteen!

The woman got on the motorcycle and said, "Big brother, I still want it if I have it."

The iron cock was worried that Lu Dong would suffer any loss if he had no experience and asked, "Where are you from?"

"Diaojiazhuang." said the middle-aged woman.

Lu Dong knew: "Where is the university town?"

The middle-aged woman responded: "There are many fish, you have only been sent to Diaojiazhuang for ten miles. I will ask Diaojuan, and the price will be higher."

Lu Dong threw the water bag back into the river: "I understand."

Diao Juan kicked Jialing motorcycle, and the ugly sound made Lu Dong cover his ears. He thought of something and quickly moved the exposed leech away and reminded: "There is a downhill road ahead. Go down to pass through the village. Go ahead and there is a gate. You can't get through."

"Thank you." The middle-aged woman turned on the gas and left.

The iron rooster picked up the silver carp, waved to Lu Dong, and left.

Lu Dong collected the money and pressed it hard in his pocket, for fear of falling out of his pants' pocket.

This is the first fund to start a new life after returning, up to 13 yuan!

Go to the city to check the specific situation and have the money for the car.

Of course, it’s okay to ride a bicycle to Quannan City, but for more than 20 years of earth-shaking changes, Lu Dong needs to be familiar with the road first.

Because of the university town, the old and new appearance of Qingzhao County to Quannan City has changed dramatically.

Lu Jianren walked slowly with a fishing net and dragged the soles of his shoes.

"Just come?" Lu Dong was surprised. Uncle Qi has always been an active fishing activist.

"Your uncle is looking for me." Lu Jianren held the net and water bag in one hand, scratching his freshly cut head with the other, feeling very worried: "Call me to go to the construction site of the university town in a few days..."

Lu Dong said: "It's not a big deal to wander around at home."

Lu Jianren glared at Lu Dong: "I don't even have enough hair, I know nothing. Can I get this skill for more than ten or twenty yuan?"

"Yes! Yes..." Lu Dong was too lazy to refute. Uncle Qi was very skillful, and he made the fishing nets, fishing forks, etc. himself.

We are good at major work, electric welding and steel bar work. In 2019, we will earn hundreds of dollars a day.

But skillfulness does not mean willing to work.

Seeing Uncle Qi's cut head, Lu Dong thought of the middle point on his head: "I'll leave first."

Lu Jianren replied: "What's wrong? Don't like your seventh uncle? If I come, you will leave?"
