Chapter 566: Large Swallow Pomfret

"This is certain. Don't know how many jin of fish Father can collect today?"

At this time, he couldn't help but regret. If he could have two boats at home like Aguang, he could earn more!

No, if he still couldn't buy a boat, he must go to order one after the New Year. Can't wait. Some families need money for the New Year, if he couldn't buy a boat before the New Year, he wouldn't have to wait after the New Year.

Lin Xiuqing didn't know what he was thinking, just said: "Shouldn't be little, right? Heard from neighbor Sister-in-law Zhou yesterday that the goods from trawling have increased these two days."

"Look in the afternoon. I'll go out for a turn, let them keep as many fish goods as they can today."

"Oh, you go ahead, I'll put the rice on to cook. Didn't know you'd be back so early, didn't cook early, originally planned to cook some noodles."

"You decide, just eat something."

Ye Yaodong said while walking out again, first telling the neighbors nearby, and then walking toward the village.

The Zhou and Lan families living next to him also have two boats.

Unexpectedly, in the short time he went out, his father-in-law actually came, and pushed a flatbed cart of unsold oranges and a sack of pomelos.

Lin Xiuqing looked at him happily and said: "Didn't you say earlier that you wanted to send some specialties to Group Leader Zhao? These oranges and pomelos sent by Father are just right to send to Group Leader Zhao. Although there are few oranges, Father said he would carry another 100 jin over tomorrow."

Ye Yaodong also looked at the full basket in the corner, and a whole sack.

"Father is too polite, every time he has something, he sends it over, never missed."

Lin Fu smiled honestly. "Just harvested, so I sent them over while selling. Oranges are too easy to sell, otherwise I could have left a bit more. If you want to send them to people, I'll carry 100 jin of bitter oranges over tomorrow. This is more durable than oranges, can be eaten slowly, and eating them cold doesn't cause internal heat. Today I brought 100 jin each, didn't expect bitter oranges to be sold out."

"That's fine, don't need you to send them over, I'll ride a bicycle to carry them, saving you from walking a long way. When the time comes, I'll calculate the money for you, just treat it as me buying them. The quantity is too large, can't let you send them."

"No need, no need, all family, what to buy? Family has nothing else, just these fruits and vegetables are the most."

"Mm, money or not, we'll talk later. Harvest is okay this year, right? How many cents a jin for oranges..."

Money definitely has to be given, just don't have to keep saying it, otherwise always pushing back, tomorrow bring money to carry, just put the money down.

Ye Yaodong changed the subject and chatted with his father-in-law. When eating lunch, he also accompanied him to drink quite a bit of wine.

Originally Lin Fu planned to go back after eating, but got drunk, could only rest here at noon, temporarily slept a nap in the two children's bed for an afternoon.

When he got up, it was already dusk. Ye Yaodong kept him for dinner, and incidentally took some fresh fish goods back.

Lin Fu repeatedly declined, dead or alive didn't want it anymore, just let him take it to sell for money, and hurriedly went back first, afraid of making them spend money again.

The old lady looked at Lin Fu pushing the flatbed cart and walking fast, smiled and said: "When you go to carry oranges tomorrow, bring a bit more fish, the in-law has always been thinking of us. You have to return it when you receive things from others later."

He of course understood this principle.

"Mm, got it. I'll go to the wharf to see if the boat has arrived? Three people working, should be fast."

Ye Yaodong pushed the bicycle out, long legs straddled and rode up.

Ye Chengyang squatted on the ground and said foolishly: "Father's feet seem longer than my person?"

"His feet are also bigger than your face!" Ye Chenghu echoed.

"Is it?"

"Yes, put your face on Father's feet tonight and compare, you'll know."

Ye Chengyang nodded blankly. "Oh."

"Ye Chenghu, did you write your homework tonight?"

Lin Xiuqing's voice rang faintly above his head, but Ye Chenghu looked up unhurriedly and said: "Ah? Haven't eaten dinner yet?"

"Don't have to write homework if you haven't eaten dinner?"

"Have strength to write homework after eating!"

Lin Xiuqing was nearly angered to laugh by his righteous words. "Hurry up and write your homework, not allowed to eat if you don't finish. Have to light a lamp to write every day, and still dare to ask me for New Year's money, your New Year's money has all been used for electricity."

Ye Chenghu muttered while going into the room. "Deceived by you guys, if I had known, I wouldn't have gone to school, writing homework every day, writing homework every day..."

Lin Xiuqing angrily wanted to give him a slap on the back of the head, but somehow, this guy seemed to have eyes on the back of his head, actually reacted quickly and ran, escaping a disaster.

Then stood at the doorway and made faces at her, nearly angering her again.

She finally knew why the eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law had voices louder than each other all day long, not scolding this, then scolding that, too late to scold, her throat was also itchy.

"Not one loves to read..."

"It's fine, it's fine, still young, teach slowly..."

Lin Xiuqing rolled her eyes, her man was probably spoiled like this too.

Ye Yaodong arrived at the wharf, just happened to see Pei Father and Haozi lifting goods basket by basket, so he went up to help.

"The goods from trawling seem quite a lot today."

"Goods are okay, just recently all are dragon-head fish and toadfish, nothing valuable. Today only caught a few jin of nine-section shrimp that are valuable." Pei Father said while walking. "You want dragon-head fish too, right?"

"Want, all want, miscellaneous fish also want."

Haozi didn't understand what they were saying, quickly asked: "What are you guys saying want or not? Uncle, don't give Acai these goods today? Dongzi changed to collecting goods and doesn't go out to sea?"

Acai also widened his eyes. "I said I was going to drag these goods in to weigh just now, why did you say wait a moment, turns out you're not giving them to me to collect?"

"No, these aren't worth much, I'm taking them back to dry dried fish, Adong wants to collect these dried fish. Later have to borrow your scale, weigh them, calculate the weight, and then we have to split half with Dawan's son."

Ye Yaodong heard Pei Father say Dawan's son, nearly laughed out loud. The older generation's naming was really pitting the son, and pitting the grandson.

"Drying so many?" Acai looked at Ye Yaodong. "Your older brother and second brother's boats, the goods these two days were all left back saying they wanted to dry, shouldn't it also be you collecting them?"

"Yes."

"Fucked, you're monopolizing! And grabbing business!"

Acai's intestines must be green with regret now. If he had known, he wouldn't have told him how much dried fish could sell for?

This was lifting a stone to hit his own foot, cutting off half of his own wealth path.

Didn't expect this guy to actually do whatever he did, like whatever he did, not selling dried fish for a few days and already making a big profit, and collecting all over the village!

"How am I monopolizing and grabbing business? You collect fresh ones, I collect dried ones." Ye Yaodong said with a playful face.

"Dried ones are more expensive than fresh ones, you're collecting dried ones there, everyone must be leaving them back to dry, to sell for more money."

After saying that, Acai also slapped his mouth twice. "Look at this broken mouth, nothing to do, why talk so much?"

Ye Yaodong smiled and hooked his shoulder, pulled out two cigarettes, put one behind his ear with service, and sent one to his mouth, incidentally lighting it for him.

"These fish are cheap to death, give them to you to collect, how much can you earn? Just those three melons and two dates, better not waste them, give them to me to collect, let me earn a bit more. I'll also catch more fish to sell to you later, let you earn, have coming and going, right!"

Acai looked up and glared at him, took a puff before taking it out, and said: "Three melons and two dates are also money, mosquito legs are small, they are also meat."

Ye Yaodong was preparing to chat properly with Acai, but saw something seemed to be wrong on the boat side, seeing the three facing each other, the atmosphere was a bit wrong.

He quickly put down the arm on Acai's shoulder. "I'll go see, something seems to have happened over there."

Walking over, he just saw Pei Father holding a small basket, inside actually was a large swallow pomfret as big as a washbasin. And in his other hand, he held a piece of broken cloth.

On the side, Haozi's expression was a bit awkward, while his wife was biting her lower lip, expression a bit unwilling looking at the basket.

He knew with his butt that they must have caught a large swallow pomfret and couldn't bear to hand it over, so they hid it.

"Sorry, Uncle, this... I also couldn't bear my wife's pleading, so I was confused once. Next time definitely won't."

"This one I picked..."

Haozi glared at his wife.

"Uncle, she's not clear-headed, don't be the same as her. This fish was indeed picked by her. Night is dark, I didn't pay attention when driving the boat, nearly hit the reef. My eyelids kept jumping in fear, so I stopped at the small island nearby. Didn't expect my wife to see this fish stuck in the reef crevice."

Pei Father's brows were wrinkled enough to pinch a fly to death. "Fine, can't be like this next time. If it's like this again, I'll change people."

"Good, good, good."

"Did the boat have any bumps? Did you check?"

"Yes, yes, yes... no, no, no... no bumps, stopped in time, just eyelids jumping, heart also jumping, so stopped to rest," he smiled, "Turns out it's jumping for wealth! Not jumping for disaster."

"Mm, as long as there are no bumps, otherwise in case there's any loss, you have to be responsible. When I gave it to you, it was good. When you return it to me, of course it has to be good."

"Definitely."

Ye Yaodong just watched from the side, not speaking.

Seeing Haozi's sincere attitude of admitting mistakes, Pei Father couldn't hold on to it, raised his hand and let it go directly.

When they went over to weigh the goods together, Acai's heart was depressed, always sitting there, not moving a bit, until seeing the large swallow pomfret, his eyes lit up, and he quickly stood up.

"Large swallow pomfret! Ouch, so big? It's as big as a washbasin, this directly covered the bottom of the basket, top-tier!"

Ye Yaodong also said with a smile from the side: "This fierce goods are delicious enough to stick your mouth."

"As if you've eaten it." Acai glared at him, and happily put the fish in his hand. "Ouch, really heavy, this can sell for several yuan more than large pomfret?" ===== CHAPTER 567 =====
