Everyone held baskets and sacks in their hands, looked at them, and then walked towards him.
"We don't have many pounds here, why don't you collect them too?"
"Yes! She has hundreds of kilograms, and you want them all. How many kilograms are still missing from ours? Otherwise, why don't you just take them all from us?"
"Yeah, let's just take it a little bit..."
Ye Yaodong couldn't help but feel confused. These middle-aged women were too difficult to deal with. They even said they didn't want them anymore and had to force them on him.
He shook his head quickly to avoid being forced to accept it.
"That's enough! I don't want too many trash fish, I want the same species. Aunt Lin doesn't have a lot of trash fish here, so I thought of collecting them on the way."
He had already collected more than a hundred kilograms of trash fish from his neighbor. It would be better to have the same species in the army, with fewer trash fish, so that it would appear to be of high quality, otherwise it would not look good if he opened the whole pile of trash fish.
Everyone looked at their own goods again, and indeed there were all kinds of fish in a mess, and all the dried fish poured out on the bamboo bed over there were the same kind of dried fish, which looked much prettier than these miscellaneous fish. It was normal for Ye Yaodong not to want their groceries.
.
"Then...okay..."
"Then we can only eat it by ourselves..."
"It's a pity. It would be nice if I could sell it for some money..."
"We don't have a big boat at home, so where can we get these goods? All we have is these trash fish, forget it, we can eat it ourselves."
Some people thought about it casually and took the goods back.
Ye Yaodong also breathed a sigh of relief and continued to inspect the goods.
Aunt Lin had just put all the goods on the bamboo bed into bags, dragged them to the corner, and then ran into the house and turned on the light. Now the sky outside was getting a little dark, and the light was not very good.
When the neighbors saw that their dried fish was out of business, they could only watch as if they were watching the fun. Some of them also helped, and after Ye Yaodong inspected it, they all helped load the goods, which made the efficiency a little bit higher.
Some would even ask him insinuatingly, "Where did you sell so much dried fish? How much money did you make? Do you want it all the time?"
He pretended not to hear any such questions, and Aunt Lin directly answered those who asked about prices for him.
Everyone was envious of Aunt Lin, very envious. They all praised their family for having the foresight to expose so much in advance, just in time to raise the price of what could be sold, and make a huge profit.
"Lao Lin hasn't come back today, has he? Hurry to the dock and wait. Tell him not to sell today's goods, but to keep them for drying. The price is high when dried, and it saves trouble. Just sell them directly to Adong."
Aunt Lin patted her thigh, "Oh, that's right! Today's fish can't be sold, it has to be kept for drying. Will A Dong want it next time?"
"I can't guarantee it! Who knows if the customer will still want it? It's up to you. If you want to keep it, you must ensure the quality, otherwise it will only be a one-time deal."
"Definitely! Then... then I'll call Lao Lin. Don't sell today's items yet. I'll sell yesterday's items. It's a pity. Regardless of whether you want it or not, we don't have anything in our own village. We sell them here and there. It won't matter if we sell them slowly."
Can be sold."
"See for yourself."
Aunt Lin anxiously said to the neighbors: "Then please help me keep an eye on it and give Adong a helping hand."
"Okay, okay, go quickly, we are here to help."
Ye Yaodong also said: "I'll wait for you to come back before weighing, and check first. There are still several bags, so it won't be that fast."
"Hey, okay, they should be back soon. It's getting dark. Please wait a moment."
"good."
As soon as Aunt Lin left, Father Ye and Mother Ye came over.
"Still here, I thought he had left." Father Ye rolled up his sleeves as soon as he came over, "You want to check, right? How many pounds did he lose here?"
"Aunt Lin said it weighs five to six hundred pounds."
"So much? Isn't it enough for him to just collect it here? It's more than that."
"Well, it doesn't matter. It's okay to put more than a hundred pounds there."
"Then your friend and brother-in-law don't need to go see it?" Ye Mu also asked while looking through it.
"You don't have to go there, they probably haven't dried much. They are probably just trash fish."
"Then what should I tell them? If there are a lot of the same kind of fish, the cheaper ones should be sun-dried more?"
"I don't know if there will be more guests coming later?"
"Then let's talk about it. Do you want to dry it more? If you want it again, once the quantity is too large, where can you collect it temporarily? What the folks are drying are all trash fish. If you don't dislike it, there are some.
.”
The neighbor next to him also quickly echoed, "Yes, yes, we all have dried fish at home. Just now, Yaodong felt that they were all trash fish, and said that these from Lao Lin's family are enough."
"Yes, if you don't mind it, we can sell it to you."
Mother Ye chuckled, "It depends on whether the customer wants it or not. A Dong also helps collect it, so I can earn a little money. I must choose something good for them according to their requirements."
"That's it. Then I'll tell you if there's any need."
"Yes, yes."
Everyone started chatting with Ye's mother again. When a group of people get together, there is no one who doesn't chat.
"Adong is making more and more money. You two old people can enjoy the blessings in the future. You can sell the worthless dried fish in our country for money."
"Yes, you are so smart and your brain is so flexible. I heard that you have made a lot of money recently, right?"
"How much money have you made?"
Mother Ye complained casually, "How much money can you make? Everyone is talking nonsense outside. Everyone spends all day staring at the things at the door of other people's houses. They don't know anything, so they just talk nonsense."
"Then your salary at the Women's Federation is pretty good, right? How much does it cost per month?"
"I didn't expect that you are all getting paid by the government. I really envy you. The whole family is making money there from top to bottom. No wonder the days are getting better and better..."
"Is there a monthly salary of forty or fifty? It should be, right? Let me tell you, everyone is very curious."
Country people are so straightforward. When asking someone how much they earn, they just ask.
For Ye Mu, her job is her honor!
If you want to ask her about her work, you are asking her from the bottom of her heart.
She didn't shy away from it at all. She was so proud that she even talked about it, "I just joined the company a few months ago and my salary is not high. Only veteran cadres can get such a high salary."
“Me, it’s only 35 yuan a month, which is not much, but I get a lot of benefits during the holidays, which is quite good. Not only do I get rice, but I also get all kinds of beans, oil, meat, and occasionally canned food and cakes.
Oh yes, there are also fabrics, the ZF is very good to us grassroots officials..."
"So good!"
"Why doesn't this great thing happen to us?"
"that is."
"Maybe there will be a chance in the future? In fact, it's just like that. You have to work all day long. Even if you get a salary, it's a bit more stable, but you can make fishing nets at home..."
Mother Ye kept talking. Even though she had said many things several times, she still talked with great enthusiasm and never got tired of talking!
This is her pride!
Her voice was the only one left present, and this place had become her home court. The villagers were all listening, occasionally chiming in and asking questions.
"I usually run errands, what happened? Someone's husband and wife are fighting and they need to reconcile..."
The father and son couldn't stop talking as soon as she arrived, and they were both a little confused.
Father Ye saw that she was still talking there, and said quickly: "Aren't you going to A Guang's place? You also have Dongzi's friends to say a few words? If you don't go, why are you still talking here? It's dark out
Now, are you still planning to go there until midnight?"
Ye Yaodong almost couldn't help laughing.
Mother Ye glared at the father and son fiercely, "Why are you so anxious? It's too late to go after you finish all the work. You were not in a hurry when I didn't say it, and you didn't expect that you would drive me away now."
"There are so many people here, we are just doing a little inspection, we don't need you, so you'd better go quickly!"
"What are you anxious about?"
"It's already dark, why don't you worry? When everyone goes to bed, why don't you knock on the door in the middle of the night to scare people?"
"The genius has just turned dark. What nonsense are you talking about in the middle of the night..."
Ye Mu still retracted her hand, thought to herself and walked out.
Father Ye looked at her back and shook his head.
Ye Yaodong also knew that his eldest son's habit of showing off was inherited from his mother, passed down from generation to generation.
The total of four to five hundred kilograms of goods is only seven or eight bags, one of which is full of miscellaneous fish, and the rest are toad fish.
In this winter, you can catch a large number of toad fish in their coastal waters using sticky nets. Other bottom fish species are not as large as this.
These fish stocks are seasonal and regional.
The father and son finished their selections in a short time, and they both simply sat on the bamboo bed and waited.
Ye Yaodong sniffed the palm of his hand, and the strong smell of salted fish came to his nostrils. It was a bit fishy, ​​but it smelled fragrant and fragrant.
"How about we weigh it first? Ask the villagers to help us take a look. I don't know how long it will take. We have to set off at night, so we have to go back to bed early."
"Forget it, let's wait until someone comes. When you sell something at home, you must look at the scale yourself. No matter how much you trust someone, you will definitely want to look at it and sell it yourself."
"Then wait."
Father Ye originally wanted to ask, what will happen to the Internet tomorrow?
The sticky nets that were put down today will have to be collected tomorrow, but the dried fish will have to be sent to the army at six or seven in the morning tomorrow morning. It will be almost noon when we get back, and it will be too late to do it again.
But I saw that there were still a few neighbors around who had not left and were still chatting there. They all planned to see how much these dried fish could be sold for.
Now they are also discussing how much they can sell it for, and how much they can earn?
He swallowed it again.
We can only discuss this after we get back, or let Dongzi deliver the goods alone. Anyway, there is no need to set up a stall. Just go and deliver the goods and come back. It doesn't matter whether he goes with him or not. Anyway, Dongzi is familiar with it.
of.
And if he stayed at home, he could go to sea with Asheng to collect the net first, and take it a little slower, which was better than the two of them being away from home and unable to collect the net, or he could ask a nephew to help temporarily.
Father Ye waited and pondered.
Ye Yaodong actually thought about it, but he had to go back and talk about it later.
Chapter completed!
