Ye Yaodong smacked the small glass of wine left in the cup into his mouth, drank it slowly before putting it down, glanced at Lin Xiuqing, smiled and waved his hand twice in front of her eyes.
"I'm telling you, it's worth keeping such good things for your own consumption. Otherwise, if you sell them, it will be cheaper for others. Who am I doing all this hard work for? Isn't it just for the whole family to eat well?"
"You can't work so hard to let others eat good things, while you still have to eat braised vegetables in a miserable way? Right? It makes sense, right? So you have to keep the good things for yourself."
"You think you are so reasonable, why didn't you tell me earlier? Why did you hide it secretly?"
She actually said it so confidently. She was convinced by this person. It was obviously something he was wrong about, but he always said it so confidently and with some sense. It was very similar to that.
.
It was as if they were making a fuss and scratching their heads.
"No, when did I hide it secretly? I killed it openly. You said it yourself two hours ago. Fish that can be struck by lightning are quite rare. We don't need that little money now.
It’s just right to keep it at home and take it as a tonic.”
Lin Xiuqing shot herself in the foot and stared with anger.
"I'm talking about keeping the fish worth tens of yuan for myself. That's okay. How do I know that this fish is worth a thousand yuan? If I knew it was worth a thousand yuan, would I still be able to say this? You also did it on purpose. At that time, I
When he said this, he deliberately did not mention the value of the fish, nor did he tell me what kind of fish it was."
Ye Yaodong pretended to be innocent, "I think it's rare too, and I think the same as you. What's more, the most expensive thing is really isinglass. The value of this fish is really not much different from what you said. I have saved all the isinglass."
, what else do you want?”
"Let me tell you, we are absolutely right to keep this fish maw. Don't look at me killing this fish. I killed it right. The isinglass made from this kind of fish maw becomes more expensive as it ages, and the longer it ages, the moister it becomes.
The longer the better.”
"It doesn't make much sense if you just sell the fish with fish maw for a thousand yuan in one go, and you will still suffer heavy losses. You can only make money by keeping it in your hands. The more you keep it, the more valuable it is, do you understand?"
"Putting good things in your hands will make them more valuable in the future. Besides, wouldn't it be better to keep the fish that jumped over the dragon gate and was struck by lightning to eat for yourself? Do you want to sell the fish for tens of dollars? Eat it in your own stomach
What’s in it belongs to you. Isn’t it better to keep fit than to have dozens of dollars more?”
"You can't buy a good body with any amount of money. I saw you drink a bowl of fish soup and your whole face will turn red and your face will shine."
"Stop talking nonsense, do you think this matter will be over with just a few words of coaxing from you?"
Lin Xiuqing was really angry after what she told him, but it wasn't that easy for him to get away with it.
At this time, the old lady said: "What Dongzi said makes sense. This isinglass will not go bad if it is stored. The older it is, the better it is, and the older it is, the more valuable it is. If it was stored more than ten or twenty years ago, it would have been small in size."
It’s worth just a few dozen yuan, and the one in better condition costs more than a hundred yuan.”
"I didn't expect that when I heard you say that now, it would be worth a thousand dollars. Then it wouldn't be worth more in the future? I just saw it, and the isinglass is quite big. I'm sure it will show off its appearance.
It’s the best.”
"The origin of this fish is so famous. It will definitely be more valuable after you put it in your hands. It's okay that Dongzi didn't sell the fish directly. He just put it in his hands and exchanged it for money when needed. Such a big fish is rare. If he sells it, it will be worthless.
Already."
Father Ye was petrified when he heard this. He stopped arguing with Mother Ye and stared straight at his mother.
What is double standard?
Damn it, is there such a big difference in attitude towards my son and my grandson?
He couldn't tell that she was an old lady in her eighties or nineties with the force she just hit him with. She wished she could break his legs without holding back at all. Fortunately, he wore thick clothes and pants.
He cursed at him, saying that he was living in a dog's belly for a long time, and he only knew how to eat when he didn't have enough. He didn't know how to stop Dongzi, and scolded him like a bloody old guy.
, what a bad old man, he scolded me without mercy at all.
Does it turn around so quickly now?
What Huan Dongzi said makes sense!!!
It’s okay if you didn’t sell the fish!!!
Once sold, it’s gone!!!
She doesn't change her face so quickly.
It's not over yet, and the old lady doesn't think there's anything wrong with what she said.
"After all, this was struck by lightning. It would be a pity to sell it. It only costs a few dozen yuan. It's better to keep it for your family to recuperate. You all work so hard and are so busy every day that your feet never touch the ground.
The little ones are also growing, and reading is a waste of their brains, so it’s time to eat more.”
Father Ye's face turned even darker. He just scolded him for knowing how to eat, and now he was urging him to eat more.
"Just keep the expensive isinglass. There's no loss after all. That's all for today. Don't argue anymore. If you eat everything, you can eat a big fish for many days. You'll be covered in all kinds of fish."
It’s good meat.”
"That's not what you said just now. You scolded me so much just now that you even beat me with a cane without hesitation."
The old lady was confident and did not feel guilty at all, "That was just now, and now is now. Just now, I was just patronizing and feeling distressed, and didn't think about it. Now that Dongzi said this, I feel that what he did is right."
"Anyway, I have saved the valuable isinglass so it doesn't get lost. If you eat the fish, you can eat it. You can eat it for a long time. If we say it, won't we be proud of it? You can still brag about it even when you are old.
than a fish struck by lightning.”
"You can brag about it when you get out later. There are so many people in the workshop and it will spread throughout the village in no time."
Father Ye almost made his mother angry, and her unreasonable behavior got to him.
Ye's mother had just been scolding Ye's father. After arguing for a while, she was no longer so angry. Now, listening to the two aunts and grandsons' arguments, she felt that it was not unacceptable.
Anyway, I ate them all and saved the good isinglass. After deducting the isinglass, the fish was only worth a few dozen yuan. She would definitely feel bad if she sold the fish for a few tens of yuan.
If she hadn't killed them, she would have had to sell them whole. Now, she could only reluctantly accept them, after all, she also ate them.
"Forget it, forget it, I've eaten all of it. I hope it can really strengthen my body. Otherwise, I'll skin you and keep the isinglass. Ah Qing, keep an eye on it and don't let him get mad anymore."
"If this happens to Huo Huo again, your grandfather will have to get up from the ground and strangle you to death. I don't know how you gave birth to such a prodigal thing."
Ye's father also glared at Ye's mother. He had also scolded him so harshly just now, but now he was so easy to talk to. He turned around and was scolded by an old man and a young man in a few words.
"What are you looking at? Are you going to spit it out?"
"If you can, spit it out first?"
"Oh, don't make any noise. You still have to make noise after eating good food. Be content. I think the food is quite good. The old lady's face is rosy. She feels several years younger all of a sudden. My mother
Yes, it looks like my complexion has improved, which is an effect that no amount of facial cream can bring out."
"Are you angry?" Father Ye said the truth bluntly.
The smiles that had originally appeared on the faces of the old lady and Ye's mother froze in an instant, and they both turned to stare at Ye's father.
"Don't let anyone tell you the truth anymore? It's obvious that the fish soup contains wine, that's why you drank it and your face turned red. You were bragging as if you had taken some magical medicine. You can brag nonsense when you open your mouth."
Father Ye glanced at them a few times with a depressed face, then simply put his hands behind his back and walked outside without seeing them.
He is not human inside and out.
He obviously didn't do anything, but it felt like it was all his fault.
"Dad, remember to take off the quilt on the boat to dry it, as you just said."
"Why should I bask in the sun? It's going to rain. How can I get it without a boat?" After saying this, the man had already stepped out.
Ye Mu was still thinking about the fish she had just eaten, "How many kilograms of fish did you stew at noon? How much is 100? How much is left? Has it been put away? In the past few days, the weather has cooled down again, and it has become a little colder.
, otherwise the one that is too big will not be able to finish eating and will not be able to be put away."
"There are four buckets in the corner, all covered with ice. You should be able to eat them for four or five days. The ones in the basin are fish heads, fish tails and livers. Put the fish heads to make tofu soup tomorrow, and fish tails and livers.
Leave it to braise at night.”
"It's so much that we can't finish it at home. I only gave a little to my friends. There is no ice cubes for the eldest and second brothers, so it's not easy to store them. I won't give them more today. I'll give them a few slices tomorrow. You
Let’s see if you want to give some to relatives and friends?”
"What to give? Keep this good stuff for yourself. Even if you have money, you can't buy it. Once you eat it, it will be gone. Others don't have any good stuff for us. Why do you keep giving it away? What goes around comes around. Keep it.
Eat it slowly. If you really can't finish it, just marinate it with salt. It can be kept for a long time and it won't go bad."
If you don’t go door-to-door and it’s already settled, why should you give it back? What should you give?
They say it can strengthen the body, why are they giving it away? I can’t even eat it at home.
Ye Yaodong pursed his lips, it didn't matter, it would be better not to give it away.
If it weren't for the fact that his mother often sent some fish and groceries to his aunts, he wouldn't have asked in vain.
However, none of the relatives would give it away. Director Chen had to give some away anyway. It wasn't raining yet and he had nothing to do in the afternoon. He didn't need to be busy in the workshop at all. He just happened to make a trip and take advantage of the fresh slaughter in the morning.
Yes, the freshest.
Father Ye and Mother Ye left one after another. Lin Xiuqing had nothing to say to him. She just glanced at him angrily, then cleared the table and urged the children to eat quickly and not to waste time.
"I picked up all the rice grains on the table and ate them. I ate for a long time, and after a long time, everyone had finished eating, except you."
Among the children, those with chopsticks took their chopsticks and those with spoons immediately got down to work.
Ye Xiaoxi stood up while digging with a spoon. He put his hands on the table and buried his face in the rice bowl to lick it.
Pei Yu looked at her and put her hands on the table, standing up and burying her head in the table to eat.
"Why are you in a hurry? Can't you just let them eat slowly?" Ye Yaodong held one hand up and asked them to sit down.
"Come, daddy will feed you, and uncle will feed you."
Both children turned their heads and glanced at Lin Xiuqing.
Lin Xiuqing glanced at the back of Ye Yaodong's head angrily, as she was used to acting like a good person.
She didn't bother to say that there was still work waiting for her in the workshop, so she went out directly.
It was said that it was going to rain, but it didn't get dark yet, but we had to prepare early. There was still a pile of dried fish that had not been confiscated, and the open space outside the two workshops had also been exposed to a lot of sun, so we had to move in, at least to the workshops.
There is also a awning on the top of the head to cover it.
She has so many things to do, so how can she have time to wait here? If he wants to be a good person, then give him some work.
"Dad, can Brother Ahai and the others still go to our workshop to earn wages?" Ye Chenghu asked, biting his chopsticks.
"They asked you to ask?"
"Hehe, they just came back from school and heard that you were back. They wanted to go to work, but they thought that the aunts were so stingy a few days ago and didn't give them a penny, so they didn't want to take advantage of them."
"Didn't your two aunts drag them away with curses?"
"No, I just came back a little before dinner, and my aunt is not at home."
"Oh, we'll have to argue again soon."
"I'll go take a look." Ye Chenghu immediately put down his chopsticks and hurried out.
Sister-in-law Ye and Sister-in-law Ye had no one to help cook at home, so when they were eating, there was no noisy noise coming from the next door. They probably hadn't finished eating yet, so there was no fuss.
When Ye Chengyang saw Ye Chenghu running away, he also put down his bowls and chopsticks, and quickly licked the table, sweeping all the rice grains on it into his mouth before getting off the table and running after him.
"If you don't give me a sweet date, you still want people to work. Who wants to do it? Children can be happy for a long time if they are given a piece of candy, and they can work hard for you even if they don't give you money. After the fuss in the first two days, I want to give instructions again.
If you do it, you will never be deceived again."
"Let's see."
After Ye Yaodong finished feeding his two children, the commotion next door started to spread.
He also went out to take a look.
"I won't do it. You are a liar. I don't want to be fooled."
"Even I don't want to be fooled."
"Dead child, what's the point of having you? Let you help with some work and pay back the money..."
"Then we will help Third Uncle do it for free~"
"Let's go, tell my third uncle and my third aunt that I don't need any money, just buy me candy and a little head card."
"I want a card too! Just ask Uncle San to buy me a card."
"Let's go...the third uncle is here..."
"Third uncle..."
"Okay!" Ye Yaodong agreed simply, "You go to work. I will buy you cards, instant noodles, and soda when the time comes."
"Okay, okay~"
"That's great. Third uncle, I just want to eat instant noodles and drink soda."
"Me too, me too."
"Let's go, go to work, and you can eat instant noodles and soda to help with the work~"
One by one, the children were very happy and ran to the workshop quickly, taking the two members of their family with them.
Ye Xiaoxi was also shouting, "Dede, wait for me~ Dede~ Dede~"
Ye Yaodong pinched her and Pei Yu, one under each arm.
"You two, stop joining in the fun and go back and follow Mrs."
Sister-in-law Ye and Second Sister-in-law Ye stood at the door depressedly. They had no choice but to let the children at home negotiate terms with Ye Yaodong.
The two children under the armpits were waving their limbs and yelling, "No, no, no, no, no, no, Mrs."
"It will make Taitai sad if you act like this. Taitai likes you so much. Didn't he watch you two burying the baby there in the morning? Keep going."
"No, no, I want my sister~"
"I'm telling you, if you bury your dolls in the soil and plant them, you can harvest a bunch of dolls in autumn." Ye Yaodong put the person in the yard and closed the door.
"Ah? A bunch of dolls?" Ye Xiaoxi tilted her head and looked up at him innocently.
"Yes, you can harvest a bunch of dolls by planting in spring and harvesting in autumn. Look at the field over there. Did you plant a lot of seeds in the past two days? They will sprout in a few days and they will grow into the ones on the side.
You can also plant tall, green vegetables."
"Will the doll grow up?"
"Uh, yes."
"As tall as me?"
"Yes, yes, that's right."
"Grow dolls, grow dolls~ Go and plant dolls~" Ye Xiaoxi happily pulled Pei Yu and went to find the dirty doll they had just left at the door.
After Ye Yaodong deceived the children, he also went into the house to get those fish fillets. He felt that it was a bit luxurious to just carry a bucket there.
Director Chen was only a couple, so he thought that half of it would be enough, so he took out a bucket, divided half of it, and specially padded the ice cubes thicker to make them appear more substantial.
In terms of net weight, this small half bucket of fish weighs ten kilograms. Two people can eat it for three or four days. Four or five days is not a problem.
Originally, after removing the head and tail and removing the belly, the remaining net weight was only about a hundred kilograms. He also gave away more than twenty kilograms in the morning, and this time he took another ten kilograms. At noon, they cooked a few more kilograms, and the remaining
It's probably really only enough for their family to eat for four or five days, and there's no need to marinate it.
"Where are you going to take these after you separate them?" The old lady finished cleaning up and saw him squatting there tinkering, so she quickly asked, "Your mother just said she wouldn't give it away and keep it for herself."
"I still have so much to eat at home. These have to be taken to the county to give to the leaders. There was a leader from the county who came to our house for dinner several times before."
"Oh, you should, you should. You have to give some of this good stuff to others to try. You also have to tell them about it. You can't make people think it's ordinary fish. This will make it look like we don't have it.
Sincerity.”
"Of course, I will brag hard."
"Then do you want to wait until tomorrow to send it over? I just got home this morning, and I didn't sit down for a while to take a breath. I have been busy killing fish. I just had a meal and I have to run around again. How tiring it is. You should rest first
Want to take a nap? It’s not too late to send it after you wake up. It’s so fresh and with ice, it won’t go bad even if it’s stored for a few days.”
"That's fine, I can wait until I take a nap before delivering it."
He did feel quite tired. Although he slept until the early hours of the night, he also had a bit of a cold and was groggy at the time. The machine kept ringing in his ears, so he couldn't sleep well at all. He could just catch up on some sleep at noon.
After all, when Father Pei wakes up in the afternoon, they still have to settle accounts. They may not wake up until the evening and have time to settle accounts after dinner.
After settling the accounts, when it gets dark, Lin Jishang will come over. They still have to talk about the canned fish stacked in the corner, and they have to count them with him. They don't know how long they will be busy and how long they will have to talk about.
.
This makes it very necessary to catch up on sleep at noon to avoid being unable to bear it at night.
He pressed the ice cubes and laid them flat, then put the bucket in the corner, covered it with a rag, and waited until he woke up to put it away.
After washing his hands and looking at the two children who were digging soil to plant dolls at the door, he went back to the house to sleep peacefully.
What he didn't expect was that when he woke up and went to the workshop for a walk, the whole workshop spread that Aseng's wife was pregnant. Was it because she ate the hairy fish he sent there in the morning?
What a departure!
His mother was actually there talking and bragging.
"That fish was struck to death by lightning because he failed to leap over the Dragon Gate. I don't know how good this fish is. Eating it can strengthen your body and eliminate all kinds of diseases. Look at Ah Sheng's wife, who has only been living for a month. She ate it in the morning
, I said I was pregnant in the afternoon, but luckily I didn’t break it just now.”
"She is really blessed by the Bodhisattva. She just fell down here and nothing happened. Fortunately, the barefoot doctor said that the child is still alive, otherwise she would have sinned."
"Yes, I didn't even know I was pregnant. I was too careless."
"Then I just got pregnant, only one month old, how could I know?"
"Is that fish at your house so amazing? I just finished eating it at noon. When I came to work, I fell down and found out that I was pregnant. The baby was still alive."
"Yes, it's easy to kill the child with just one fall. I didn't expect him to be so tenacious."
"Who says it's not the case? That's why I said it should be supplemented by eating fish. It should be supplemented by both adults and children. Otherwise, the child would be easily wiped out if he fell like this."
When Ye Yaodong heard this, his head was full of black threads, and he was completely off the mark.
It was obviously an accident, a coincidence.
These rural women are really good at breaking things off, and their mother is really good at blowing things off.
"Mother Asheng made a fuss this morning. She brought a bowl of Fu Shui and forced her to drink it. She said she would definitely give birth to a son after drinking it. Now she's fine. She's pregnant. There's no need to fuss."
"I don't know if I am pregnant with a son or a daughter. Who knows if I will bring a few more bowls of talisman water and say that if I am a daughter, I can become a son?"
"It's really a toss-up... If the talisman water was useful, why would people still die? Why would we need a doctor? Everyone would be immortal after drinking a bowl of it."
"That's right."
"Do you still have your fish? Can I buy you a pound?"
Ye Yaodong quickly refused, "I won't sell it. It's gone. It's just a coincidence. How can it be so magical? It's more effective to worship the Bodhisattva and ask for his blessings."
"Whether it's magical or not, no one has seen or heard of this fish struck by lightning, and they are curious to try it..."
"It's not much. I went to the city at noon and gave a lot to the leaders in the city. The rest was only enough for my own family." He brought the matter out in advance and blocked people's mouths.
"Don't think about it, I heard it. Ah Cai said in the morning that the fish is worth hundreds or thousands of dollars, but Ah Dong didn't sell it. How could he sell it to us? We can't afford it, so what can we buy it with?
?”
"Hundreds or even a thousand yuan? Oh my God, it's so expensive and you don't even sell it. Why do you keep it home to eat?"
Ye Mu was initially a little hesitant when she heard that everyone wanted to buy it, but when she heard that it would cost hundreds or thousands of dollars, she immediately gave up.
How much can these women be sold for?
Hundreds or even thousands of yuan have not been sold. If you sell fish here for just a few cents, isn’t that unhealthy? It’s better to keep some for your own consumption. It may actually strengthen your body. What’s the use of a few cents?
?
"But it made me feel so sad for this prodigal kid. It wasn't until I finished eating that I realized that he really put everything in his mouth without thinking about how expensive it was. Only after I finished eating did I realize that I wanted to slap my own throat.
It was spit out and restored."
"A Dong is successful. You are now blessed. You can eat everything. Eat good things for free. You will definitely live a hundred years in the future."
"I'm envious. We are a bunch of old sisters, but you are the one living the most comfortable life now..."
"Isn't that right? You are eating from the public family, your son is prosperous, you have a lot of grandchildren, and you don't have to take care of them yourself. Not to mention how comfortable your life is."
"Where is it? Hahahaha, don't I still have to help here? My son loves to mess around with everything. Alas, he doesn't know when he will get his money back. He spends a lot of money and takes everything for himself.
I don’t even discuss my idea with my wife…”
Ye Yaodong didn't bother to listen to his mother's bragging and left directly. Anyway, his mother and Ah Qing were working here and watching. They had done it several times and they were both very proficient in the assembly line.
I just didn't expect Brother Asheng to be very quick. His wife got married a year ago, and today she was just born in the first month of the first month of February, and she was immediately diagnosed as being one month pregnant. She has been working very hard.
Being single for a long time is different. People in their 30s are also working very hard.
Fortunately, there was no problem with the fall. There were ice cubes in the baskets of fish in the workshop. When the ice cubes melted, the floor would be wet, and it would be easy to fall. I need to talk to my mother when I get back in the evening.
, don’t ask too old people to do it, and don’t ask pregnant women to do it.
He knew very well how hard women had to work at this time. Some pregnant women were seven or eight months pregnant and could go to the mountains to chop firewood. Working in workshops was nothing to these women.
Today was a lesson for others, and it also taught his mother to remember. If something unexpected happened, they couldn't afford to pay for it, and they had to ask his mother to tell the women to wear non-slip rain boots.
He was thinking as he walked back, preparing to go home and carry the bucket of fish to the county seat for delivery.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I got on the motorcycle, I saw Brother Aseng walking over in a hurry.
He also asked with concern, "I heard that my sister-in-law fell, how is it? Are you okay?"
Ye Yaosheng smiled and rubbed his hands, "It's okay, it's just that I'm a little red. I have to stay in bed to protect the fetus. I won't be able to get out of bed until at least three months."
"That's good, that's good. That's too careless. I didn't even know I was pregnant. Fortunately, it's okay. Otherwise, my sin would have been great. Now I have to stay in bed to protect the fetus. Those strange things your mother carried
Don’t let her eat any more weird things. She’s already pregnant. Don’t let her healthy body be ruined by eating indiscriminately.”
"I know that my mother is not reliable, and I can see it clearly."
"Well, what's the matter with coming here?"
After Ye Yaosheng glanced at the motorcycle with envy, he said a little embarrassedly: "I thought that the hairy fish you brought over at noon was very good. It was so rare, so I thought it should be quite good, so I wanted to come over and follow you again.
Buy a few pieces."
"It doesn't matter if it's more expensive, as long as the adults and children can eat well. After all, she needs to take some good supplements now."
Ye Yaodong nodded and got off the motorcycle without saying anything else.
"Okay, it's easy to talk. I'll go in and get it for you. I just fell down, so I need to recuperate and eat something good."
Ye Yaosheng thanked him repeatedly and followed him into the yard. A bunch of dogs circled around his feet, sniffing them. He did not follow him in, but waited at the door.
Ye Yaodong weighed it briefly and took out another 5 kilograms of fish meat.
After all, it was broken in his workshop. Fortunately, he was fine. If something happened, he couldn't afford to pay for it. It would be appropriate to give some to others to make up for it.
Therefore, when Ye Yaosheng asked him how much it was, he didn't say anything and just gave it to him.
"You don't have to give it, what should you give it to? My brother, not to mention that he fell from my place, it is appropriate to give a few kilograms as nutritional supplements to supplement the mother-in-law, so don't be so outspoken."
"This is good stuff..."
"Only give me good things. If it's not good, I don't have the nerve to give it away. Just take it. You don't have to be so open about it. You just got pregnant, so you have to get some good things for your wife and children to eat. You'll have to spend money next time."
There are a lot of places, and it’s not easy for you to save some money, so just keep it and don’t have to give it.”
"How embarrassing...you already gave it at noon..."
"Go on, go on. I'm in a hurry to go out, so I won't bother you here. You can take it back first."
"where you go?"
"When I go to the county to deliver fish and meat to the leaders, I also have to give good things to the leaders. People are very kind to me, so we have to be more conscientious as human beings."
Ye Yaosheng nodded repeatedly, "Yes, that's right. Then I won't disturb you or waste your time. I'll take it back first and you go first. If it's not money, then we'll talk about it later."
.”
"Um."
After sending the people away, Ye Yaodong got on his motorcycle again and drove away in style under the envious and jealous eyes of the villagers.
His nap was a bit long and he was too tired. It was already 4 o'clock when he woke up, and now it's almost 4:30.
He was afraid that riding a bicycle would be too slow, so he chose to drive a motorcycle directly. When he arrived at the county, Director Chen should be off work soon.
He just happened to wait downstairs with his family members, and he would be back immediately after they came back to see him off.
Of course, you must brag about your awesomeness, and you must brag hard.
You can also take advantage of the fact that Brother Aseng's wife is pregnant, which adds a bit of mystery.
Not to mention, most people believe in this nonsense.
Adding a bit of mystery can double the value of something.
Director Chen was surprised to receive such a good thing unexpectedly. Hearing his boast, he felt that it was better to believe that it existed than to believe that it did not exist. He also believed that the fish and meat should be of the highest quality.
"What about this isinglass? Doesn't it mean that isinglass is more valuable? It can be worth a thousand yuan? Shall I buy it from you? This kind of fish is hard to come by."
"Ah, the isinglass has been sold by my father. It's a pity. I went to deliver fish meat to a friend at the time and was not at home. My father resold it and almost made me angry to death."
"Sold? To whom?"
"My father asked the person who received the goods at our terminal to contact a Taiwanese businessman. He came over to take a look and confirmed that the fish heads were scorched by lightning, so he bought it immediately."
Director Chen saw that what he said about the nose and eyes was true, and he had a regretful look on his face. He believed it and felt very sad.
"It's a pity that the good things were bought by outsiders. Next time if you still have such good things, tell me about them."
"Okay, okay, definitely."
"Come up with me, and I'll give you the money for this fish. This fish is very rare, so I can't get it for free..."
"Look what you said, can I ask for your money? This is specially given to you, and it is not the best food. You can eat it for fun. It would be better if it can really strengthen your body."
Fortunately, he was smart and said directly that the isinglass was sold.
Otherwise, if the boss asks him to buy it, can he really ask for their money?
If this really costs money, it's over.
But he wasn't willing to give it away like this. After all, he didn't have anything to ask for, so he needed to give something of such high quality, which was worth a whole house.
It is enough to give these souvenirs to maintain the relationship on a daily basis.
There are always comings and goings, and the news about his last return might be able to help someone get promoted and make a fortune.
"Then why are you so embarrassed? This is better than any other nutritional supplements. I heard what you just said is rare."
"No matter how rare it is, it's still a fish. How can I ask for your money? If I really want your money, who will I become? Director Chen is usually very nice to me, but I respect you as my elder. If you
If you give me money, you will become unfamiliar, and I will never have the nerve to come to you in the future."
Director Chen smiled with great satisfaction, "Okay, thank you then. Then I won't be polite to you. Just like you said, I also regard you as my junior. Even if I see you, I would rather see you than me. 3
A son will have more bread."
"Okay, okay, as long as you don't mind me being annoying, I will come and visit you every two days."
"Okay, okay, don't keep talking downstairs, go up and sit for a while, and have a meal by the way."
"No, no, just the things have been delivered. It's going to get dark soon, I have to go back early."
"What's the rush? Just eat here. It doesn't matter if it gets dark. Just ride slower and be more careful on the way back."
"Thank you, but you really don't need it. I just came back from the sea today. I just arranged the work at home, so I sent it over immediately while it was fresh. The family is still waiting for me to settle the accounts."
He wasn't telling lies at this moment.
"Oh, I still want to settle the account, but I have something else to do? Let's just forget it for now. Let's do it next time. I won't keep you too long, so as not to delay your affairs. It's better to go back as soon as it's still dark, so as not to be confused on the road.
"
"Hey, okay, then I'll leave first."
"Drive slowly."
"Okay, okay, and thank you, the motorcycle is easy to drive and very convenient."
"Haha, that's good!"
Ye Yaodong waved to Director Chen, started his motorcycle, said a few more polite words, and then walked away.
The mountain road is difficult to drive, and this is a three-wheeler. You have to pay attention to safety at the turns. If you can go back before dark, of course you still have to go back at dawn.
He hurried home quickly. It was not dark yet, it was spring, and the days were gradually lengthening.
As soon as he stepped into the house, his father immediately said: "I've been waiting for you to settle the accounts, why do I have to go to the county at this time, if it will be different tomorrow?"
"It seems more sincere to go today. Wouldn't it be the same to settle the accounts after dinner? Is Uncle Pei awake?"
"Yes, as soon as you left the house, he and Lao Zheng came over to settle the score. Who knew you were out?"
"Then let's do it after dinner."
"We have just calculated the general account. Ah Qing also took out the inventory and compared it together. I will calculate it in front of you after dinner. If you see that there is no problem, you can go with what they calculated before.
Settlement."
"Okay. The payment for the goods I asked Uncle Pei to keep twice has not yet been settled. Did you just pay the money to the public first?"
"Yes, the bill of goods was originally supposed to be paid to the government first, but it was settled just now while everyone was around and was given to the government."
"Has the cargo from Ah Cai's place on the trip back this morning been settled?"
"Yes, before coming to us, they first went to Ah Cai's place to get the money. We all have to settle the accounts. We can't pay him what he owes."
Ye Yaodong nodded, that would save trouble, as there would be no need to hang accounts there, it would be best to keep everything clear.
"Eat first, let's eat first. I'll wait for you to come back. Let's talk if you have anything to say while eating." The old lady smiled and took out the hot dishes in the pot one by one.
He also went to wash his hands first, and then continued to ask his father at the dinner table how much they had just calculated per share after deducting expenses this month.
"If you don't count the groceries I left for you, one share would be more than 520 yuan per person. After all, I went out three times after the New Year. You can say that the one yesterday doesn't count. I only came back immediately after one day.
After deducting the gas expenses, we only made about 500 yuan, and this is because we sold it on the beach, and the price was a bit high."
"That's not bad. It's equivalent to selling today's goods and getting an extra 50 yuan per share."
"The first two times, it was good to be able to split one share at 478."
"Isn't that right? That's also because there were a lot of goods in the previous two overseas shipments."
Father Ye thought for a while and then said: "The groceries returned in these two trips after the new year have doubled compared to the previous year. You have to pay more, and you can't give me another 10 yuan to show your appreciation..."
"I know, I think I'll just pay you by the pound. Anyway, I'll bring it back. Then I'll pick up a scale at the dock and check the weight. One pound counts as 4 cents, and 10,000 pounds counts as 40 yuan. After all, it's useless groceries.
, like those worthless toad fish, they only cost a penny per pound on the fresh harvesting boat.”
"The items we brought back in the first two trips weighed just over 10,000 kilograms. If we add a little more today, then even if we give 100 yuan to the public, there should be nothing to say. It will definitely be enough to subsidize the gas money consumed due to the extra weight, and it can also
And earn a little more."
"If we share one share like this, everyone can share another 10 yuan, which is okay."
Father Ye thought about it and thought it was okay.
"Then let's talk about it later when we go to settle the accounts after dinner and see what everyone's opinions are. I think there won't be any objections. Our own family only holds nine shares."
"Then we still have to settle the accounts carefully."
"Hmm. That Maoyu doesn't know how it was spread in the village now. It was so popular that a lot of people asked us to buy it, but I rejected them all and said that they would basically be given to the leaders."
"Oh, by the way, I also told the leader that you sold the isinglass, so don't reveal the secret."
"Ah? What?"
"The leader wants isinglass, so I said so to save trouble, but I don't want to give it away."
Why did he take the blame again without him knowing?
Ps: All the debts have been paid off, and monthly tickets will be added next!
The current total number of monthly votes is 58,000, and for every additional 500 votes, an additional chapter of 3,000 words will be added!
In order to celebrate the first place on the monthly vote list, we have added an updated chapter with 3,000 words and merged it into this chapter. This chapter has 10,000 words!
Don't just look at the chapters, look at the number of words in the chapters. The number of words is the key. There is no need to open a new chapter separately.
I also wrote 13,000 today. If I count it as a chapter of 3,000, I will send out 4 chapters today. Just to balance things out, I merged the chapters and only singled out the chapters that were updated by the leader.
Thank you for your support, gentlemen!
(This paragraph is less than 200 words, so there is no charge. Dianniang charges according to the number of words, and 200 words are one penny.)
I recommend a new book "Literary Man 1978". He married the most beautiful educated youth, worked as a Yantu administrator, and was used to eating the dog food of capitalists. The soft rice of the 1980s was really delicious.
Chapter completed!
