Chapter 320: The curtain of earning big money opens

For the next week, Li Long went to the big Haizi to see the situation every morning, but this time he didn't go to the gate, just looked at the south bank.

Every day the water line was receding, slowly, except for a few big troughs, there was no water on the south bank, and fish heads were still shaking in some shallow water pools.

It's just that the newly exposed ground was still very slippery, Li Long didn't bother with those fish, just looked at the water situation.

In the afternoon, he handed the bicycle to Li Junfeng and the others to practice. At first, it was Li Junfeng and Li Junshan practicing, later Li Anguo and Chen Xingbang also followed and practiced together. The bicycle at this time was no less than the motorcycle more than ten years later and the car more than twenty years later, it could be considered a high-end configuration.

They were practicing bicycles, while Li Long took the time to go to the county, bought a few more net bags, went home, installed handles, and reinforced them, for convenience in later use.

When all four people learned to ride bicycles, this afternoon, Li Long took them to Li Jianguo's home.

Li Jianguo didn't have anything to do here either, mainly feeding pigs. Seeing Li Long bringing people over, he greeted them to enter the room.

"Big Brother, I came over today to discuss a big matter." Li Long said, "If this matter is handled well, earning a bicycle for Second Brother and the others is no problem."

"What?" Li Anguo was stunned when he heard, and then several people were pleasantly surprised!

In the previous ten days or so, everyone earned thirty or forty yuan, which was already a huge sum for them.

Now Li Long said the next wave could earn a bicycle for one person, so how could they not be pleasantly surprised?

"Doing what?" Li Jianguo was much calmer. In his view, his younger brother now had eyes and ears everywhere, and it was not surprising to have any opportunity to earn money.

"It's like this, I've been going to the big Haizi to see the water every morning these days." Li Long first explained the reason, "The water in the big Haizi has been dropping these days, the gate has been releasing water, the Mohe Canal hasn't entered water, it's estimated that the water will be almost dry tomorrow, at most there will be water in a few troughs..."

"The fish inside..." Li Jianguo was the first to react, "Isn't that just going to pick up fish?"

"Yes, it's picking up fish." Li Long smiled, "When I went over this morning, the fish in a few water pools had already come out."

"Then let's go now!" Hearing that the water in a Haizi was all dry, Li Junfeng couldn't sit still, "Uncle Xiao Long, you hid it tightly, if you had said it earlier, we would have gone two days ago... Are there many fish?"

"Many, too many." Li Jianguo pointed at Li Long and said, "Your Uncle Xiao Long, before you came, cast sticky nets to catch fish, he could catch more than a hundred kilograms every day..."

"So many?" This time even the usually steady Li Junshan exclaimed, "Then how can it be eaten up?"

"How much can the family eat? It's all taken to be sold." Li Long explained, "This time, let's make a big one, try our best to get the fish back..."

He said his plan, and after finishing, looked at Chen Xingbang and Li Anguo who were staring at him blankly.

Chen Xingbang was also impressed in his heart. Originally, he thought his brother-in-law was just lucky and encountered an opportunity to get rich. Now looking at people's ideas and pattern, he was far behind!

"Then let's go now? Why wait until tomorrow? Let's go see? It shouldn't be far, right?" Li Junfeng was already anxious, "Is it ten miles away?"

"No, how can it be ten miles? Two kilometers, four miles." Li Jianguo thought about it and said.

"Go, go, go, the sun hasn't set yet, go see, see the situation!"

Li Long looked at Li Jianguo.

"Then let's go see." Li Jianguo was also very curious, "I'll harness the horse cart."

"Then you go, I won't go, I still have to tell Daqiang and Yongqiang, this matter needs more people to join."

"Fine, you go do your work, I'll take your Second Brother and the others to see." Li Jianguo was also quite excited at this time, he had seen many fish, but he had really never seen the big Haizi with the water drained to see fish.

Wouldn't that have to be seen well?

Watching Li Jianguo harness the horse cart, Li Long specifically had the side panels around it set up, and said with a smile:

"Big Brother, you'd better bring more urea bags, otherwise it won't hold."

"Right, right." Li Jianguo said with a smile, "Do we have to bring the net bags too?"

"Better bring them."

A group of people sat on the horse cart and headed north, while Li Long went to find Tao Daqiang.

In the Tao family courtyard, Tao Daqiang was wiping his bicycle, that 28-inch bicycle was wiped by him without a speck of dust. After wiping, he didn't forget to oil the chain.

Li Long felt ashamed of himself looking at it, his own 28-inch bicycle was really used as a vehicle. Look at this one, he was treating the bicycle as an uncle to be worshipped.

"Brother Long is here." Tao Daqiang put down the oil pot and said with a smile, "Have you eaten?"

"Eaten, how about you?"

"Also eaten."

In the room, Tao Daqiang's father was smoking, hearing the sound outside, hesitated for a moment, and didn't come out.

"Start working tomorrow." Li Long said, "This time is different from before, I'll tell you in detail now."

"Brother Long, you speak." Hearing that it was serious business, Tao Daqiang immediately became serious.

"The water in the big Haizi is almost dry." Li Long's first sentence was no less than giving Tao Daqiang a bombshell, "You should know that there are many fish inside."

"Know, know, how could I not know."

"Tomorrow morning, you lead the donkey cart over, it's best to be with Uncle Tao, right, there's also Yongqiang, you tell him too. Bring things, you can catch fish, but my meaning is, you collect fish."

"Collect fish?" Tao Daqiang was a bit puzzled.

"Right, collect fish." Li Long said firmly, "The few villages on the north bank of the big Haizi definitely know the situation earlier than us, tomorrow I estimate there will be more people over there than on our side, so, tomorrow there will definitely be many people in the Haizi on their side.

You, just lead the donkey cart and collect fish there, the fish they catch, you collect them onto the cart at one mao per kilogram, pick the big ones, good fish to collect. Of course, if you can collect them at lower than one mao, five fen is even better."

"One mao? Why would they be willing to sell?" Tao Daqiang immediately shook his head, "Even if the fish in the market is cheap, it's five mao."

"Don't worry, as long as you give cash, they will definitely sell to you." Li Long said with a smile, "Once there are many fish, how can the fish in the market be five mao? Two mao is not certain!" "Then wouldn't you lose money if you collect it!"

"I'm not selling it now." Li Long shook his head, "I collect it and put it away, this winter is so long, I'll sell it after there are no fish later.

No matter how much you collect it for, selling it to me for one mao five is fine, or you can store it at home, and when it's around New Year's Day, take the cart to the county to sell, this is a way to earn money, if handled well, earning another bicycle this time is no problem."

After Li Long finished speaking, he stood up and said to Tao Daqiang again:

"Daqiang, bring more bags tomorrow, the donkey cart alone can't hold many fish, let's leave it at that."

Li Long left, leaving Tao Daqiang a bit confused in the courtyard.

A few minutes later, Tao Daqiang's father walked out, seeing Tao Daqiang still sitting on the small stool in front of the bicycle, he held the pipe and asked:

"What are you thinking?"

"What?" Tao Daqiang raised his head to look at his father and asked: "What are you thinking?"

"Collect it yourself, or collect it and sell it to Xiao Long?"

!.

"That's naturally collecting it and selling it to Brother Long." Tao Daqiang said very naturally, "We collect it, and sell it ourselves later, that can earn a lot of money, I calculated, it might earn several hundred later. What about later?"

Tao Daqiang's father nodded, and shook his head again:

"It's really a fool with a fool's blessing... Xiao Long's words weren't said to you, they were said to me."

"Said to you?" Tao Daqiang was a bit puzzled.

"He knows you will definitely work with him, and collecting fish is also selling to him. He said those words to tell me, if you want to earn money, both of these methods work, I estimate it's to let me tell your eldest brother, seize this opportunity to earn some money. His family... sigh, it's definitely harder than yours later."

Saying that, Tao Daqiang's father went out.

"Is Brother Long meaning this? No way? Why can't I hear it?" Tao Daqiang felt that Li Long shouldn't mean this. He felt that Li Long just very openly stated the two possibilities and put them on the table.

When Tao Daqiang's father returned, Tao Daqiang went to find Yang Yongqiang, this matter had to be made clear with Yang Yongqiang.

Yang Yongqiang also understood very well and immediately said:

"I'll also collect fish, collect it and put it on your cart, and sell it to Brother Long together then."

This matter was settled like this.

Li Long returned to the horse station and continued to read.

This "Dang Kou Zhi" was really challenging people's brains, writing it made people feel a bit annoyed, it was completely reversed. After reading half, Li Long stuffed the book under his pillow and took out another one to read. This "Gu Du Xia Nu" was quite attractive.

Li Long remembered flipping through it before, but didn't finish it, just felt that the little devils inside were too cruel. Looking at it again now, he still felt the same.

The sky darkened, he looked outside, the time was still early, but Li Anguo and the others hadn't returned, something was wrong.

After reading a few pages, Li Long was a bit worried, put down the book, went out, turned around the courtyard twice, and felt a very heavy chill.

Tomorrow in the residual water pools in the big Haizi, the ice should be very thick, right?

Don't know if it will go smoothly?

Then he heard the sound of the horse cart.

"Arrived, arrived, frozen to death!"

"Frozen is also worth it!" This was Li Junfeng's voice, very excited, "Who could have thought that the fish were really picked up! Picking up a bag of fish in a pit of water, where have I seen it? Even when the big river was dry before, there weren't so many fish?"

"Caught it today!" Chen Xingbang also said excitedly, "Cook a meal at night, must cook a meal, these fish look fat—so fresh!"

"That's for sure, let Uncle Lao Luo cook later..." Li Anguo said with a smile.

"I'll help." Li Junshan added, "Cook two more."

The horse cart was driven into the courtyard. Li Long looked at the five people who were shivering from the cold but still happy, and asked:

"How was it?"

"Hey! Those fish... so many! Can't pick them all up!" Li Jianguo was happy.

"Hurry in and get warm, I'll handle the fish." Li Long took the horse reins, "You guys hurry and roast the fire."

"Must roast, feel frozen through, you said why didn't I feel it when picking up fish?"

"There's fire on the fish." Several people said while entering the room.

Li Long picked out two big crucian carp, one carp, and one five-striped black fish and handed them to Li Junshan, then led the horse cart inside, led it to the warehouse in the front, and started unloading the bags.

The room inside was also paved with wooden boards, there was nothing on it at this time, so he just put the fish on it. This room didn't have a stove set up, so the fish would be frozen in one night.

Li Long looked while moving, he could see that Big Brother and the others were still specifically picking big fish to catch. There was a bag of crucian carp, and the smallest crucian carp was not smaller than his palm.
