Chapter 210 I have some ideas again
Due to the early return, it was only around 12 noon after the ship docked at the pier.
There were not many boats on the shore at this time. After all, the sky was clear today, there was no wind and no waves, so it was very suitable for going out to sea.
If they hadn't picked up so many small yellow croakers in vain, they wouldn't be willing to come back so early. The fuel cost for a round trip is not cheap.
Ye's mother didn't know that they would come back early and didn't come out. The father and son slowly loaded the goods by themselves, and Ah Cai also came to help.
He was shocked when he saw the boat full of small yellow croakers.
"Aren't you engaged in longline fishing? Why are there so many small yellow croakers?"
"Did you see those electric stingrays in the corner? That's right, it's just what you thought. The mantis stalks the cicada, and the oriole follows behind, giving us a huge advantage."
Acaijing reminded him that he saw more than 20 electric rays in the corner of the boat, and he was stunned.
"So these little yellow croakers were all electrocuted?"
"Yes, I picked it up for free. As soon as we arrived at the sea surface, we saw more and more small yellow croakers floating, and it was too late to catch them."
Is this okay?
What kind of bullshit luck?
"Stop being stupid and help with the work."
"It's true that with you, good things will happen to you every time you go to sea."
"Don't mention it. Have you seen those three baskets of blue fish in the corner? This is my real trophy today. It will all go to my grandma's house. I won't even be able to make back the gas money."
"No, no, there are no other goods."
"Don't keep any food for yourself!"
Father Ye glanced at him, no matter how mature he was, it was still a waste of money. He always kept some goods, and they were all well-chosen.
On the way back, I watched him put soft silk, prawns, and small yellow croakers into his bucket. It made his eyes hurt as an old father, but he knew it was useless, so he could only pretend not to see it.
"Dad, you can keep whatever you want to eat. You're welcome. Don't feel bad. If you don't eat my grandma, my mother and sister will eat it too."
Father Ye was too lazy to pay attention to him. They ate all the food from the ground cage some time ago, and the whole family was heartbroken. If he took it back to Huo Huo, he would definitely be scolded.
After working for almost an hour, they finished loading all the small yellow croakers. A total of 26 baskets were loaded. After they were all lifted off the boat, they continued to carry other goods.
At noon today, there was not a lot of people on the shore. Otherwise, the villagers would be envious. If you just go out to sea and pick up a thousand or two kilograms of fish, you would be jealous again.
After all the small yellow croakers were weighed, they weighed 1,632 kilograms, and the purchase price was 12 cents, which was lower than he expected.
He is not an unreasonable person. He will not force others to raise the price of any product. He will just occasionally hammer it and see that it is almost in line with the market price. The market price will also fluctuate in the first place.
Electric rays are only a little more expensive than ordinary rays. The big one costs 45 cents, the small one costs 2 cents. The big one weighs 22 kilograms, and the small one weighs 132 kilograms in total. There are also dozens of kilograms of small fish, shrimps and
Pippi shrimps and fish, these were sorted out and sold for only 11 yuan.
Of the five and a half kilograms of prawns he caught, he kept one kilogram for himself. The price of prawns is higher, 1 yuan and 20 cents per kilogram, and other soft fish products are also sold for about 10 yuan.
Overall, today’s harvest in half a day is quite big, and the bulk of it was the boatload of small yellow croakers picked up for free.
"You probably sell the most goods among the fishing boats at the pier today. Everyone only sells for thirty or forty a day. That forty or fifty is considered good luck. Only occasionally does a fishing boat get lucky. How come you are so lucky every day?
"
"That's because I know how to find a place, but they can't. Look at every time the goods I haul don't have schools of fish or big fish. Most of the goods they haul are groceries."
"Good boy, after the prodigal returns, God will take care of you."
Ye Yaodong collected the receipt with some pride, "Thank you very much."
He weighed the three baskets of green fish he kept for himself, and they weighed 165 kilograms. If he took them back, they could weigh several dozen kilograms more. After loading them on the cart, he headed home.
Lin Xiuqing was a little surprised to see him coming back so early, and even stood on her tiptoes to look at the sea in the distance.
"Is there no waves in the sea? Why are you back so early?"
Ye Yaodong handed her the receipt and happily told her what happened at sea. The two sisters-in-law who were weaving a net at the door were extremely envious again.
Lin Xiuqing didn't know whether to be happy, happy, or happy. Looking at the trolley in the open space next to her, she couldn't help but said: "It feels like I have killed all the fish in my life during this period."
"Hahaha~ Where are you? There are still many fish you will kill in the future."
She glared at him angrily, "Every time I go back to my parents' house, my mother says that I have lived at the beach for a long time and my body smells like fish."
"No, it must be because you bring fish every time you go back."
"It's better to come back early. You couldn't get up at night and didn't sleep for long. Go take a bath. I'll cook you some noodles and eat them. You can go and rest for a while."
"Cook some 'jail' to eat? I brought back two pieces of soft silk."
"Okay, I happened to buy a piece of lean meat this morning."
"Guizi" is translated from their local dialect. It is actually another form of Hokkien paste. The ingredients are exactly the same as Hokkien paste, except that the Hokkien paste is stir-fried, while "Guizi" is soup-based.
Lin Xiuqing went to the vegetable field at the back door and cut down a cabbage, picked a handful of celery and green onions, and then went inside to cook it for him.
She cut the cabbage in half, and then cut it into small pieces, probably only a little bigger than the top of her thumb. Then she cut the celery into as short as a fingernail, then cut the meat into thin strips, and took the soft strips she brought back.
Wash it and cut it into cubes.
After all the ingredients are prepared, put them all into a basin, then put the seasonings in it, then add the homemade sweet potato starch, add a little water and stir it into a paste. It should not be too thin.
Ye Yaodong washed his hair and came out of the shower to see her scooping up the paste with a spoon and preparing to put it into the pot.
"It would be better if you put squeezed peanuts in it."
Lin Xiuqing gave him a blank look, "You are the only one who knows how to eat."
"Shall we grow some peanuts in our backyard next year?"
"Don't open your mouth. If you want to plant something you want to eat, just take a hoe and cultivate it yourself."
"Okay, didn't I cultivate all those lands? When did I only have one mouth to talk about? I can feed a few children by making more varieties next year."
"Well, by the way, my little sister's marriage has been decided. My mother came over this morning to talk about the date of the year before. We will get engaged on the second day of December and get married on the twelfth day of the lunar month. I have made an appointment with my two sisters-in-law to go shopping in town early tomorrow morning and prepare in advance.
stand up."
Ye Yaodong frowned, "Don't you need me to accompany you? Can you move the things?"
"My two sisters-in-law will help. You can go out to sea and don't worry about me."
"How about I just let Lin Jishang stay here? This will save you the trouble of running around."
"No, it's just a few pieces of fabric. It's not something expensive and difficult to get. Don't bother others. We can just go to the town and buy it ourselves."
As Lin Xiuqing spoke, she stirred the bottom of the pot with a spatula to prevent it from sticking. She only scooped out fifteen spoons, which was enough for him to eat. There was still half a basin of paste left, and she planned to save it to cook a bowl at night.
Extra meals.
Ye Yaodong actually wanted to find Lin Ji on his own. When he found that the stone sinking rope got stuck on the reef and found that he could not sink, he had an idea in his mind.
He wants to buy a set of diving equipment!
The rich products in the sea made him drool...
Today he saw conchs and abalone on the reef and wanted to pick them up, but conditions didn't allow it.
In fact, he had some vague ideas during the Sardine Storm.
However, there is no domestic production at this time. It has just been reopened, there is a shortage of materials, and the economy is still very backward. I just don’t know if Linjishang is easy to get, and how much it will cost to buy one...
Maybe you can buy a pair of goggles, a snorkel, and fins first, which should be enough for the time being. Now, as long as he can dive to about ten meters, that will be enough.
After Lin Xiuqing put the cooked 'jail' on the table, she saw that Ye Yaodong didn't know what he was thinking. He was still standing beside the stove in a daze and didn't know how to come over.
She spread her fingers and waved them in front of him, "What are you thinking about?"
"I'll go with you tomorrow. I want to visit the Taiwanese goods store in town."
"What are you looking at? Do you want to spend money again?" Lin Xiuqing frowned, wondering what else he wanted to buy.
Ye Yaodong flicked her forehead helplessly, "I spend so much money every day, isn't all the money in your hands?"
Lin Xiuqing snorted softly, "You can buy a sewing machine first and then later if you don't have any money. Of course I have to be careful."
"Isn't that what I want to make you happy? It's not like I can't afford it."
"As soon as you have money, you are thinking about buying this or that. There are still many places where money is needed at home..." Lin Xiuqing muttered a few words and then stopped, "Come and eat, and go to bed after eating.
"
Ye Yaodong nodded and walked to the table to eat, but forgot that it was freshly cooked, and directly burned his mouth, "Hiss~"
"Why are you so careless? What are you thinking about? You keep getting distracted."
"It's not like you've been there all this time, talking endlessly."
Lin Xiuqing glared, can she be blamed for this?
Seeing that she was about to curse, Ye Yaodong directly grabbed the back of her head and kissed her, blocking her mouth to stop her from chattering...
Lin Xiuqing was unprepared. She was stunned for a moment and then quickly pushed him away. She looked towards the door with a guilty conscience and was relieved when she saw that there was no one there.
"What are you doing? It's a clear day and the door is still open. You're not afraid of being seen."
Her soft and coquettish tone is soothing, and her facial expressions are different. This is how a woman should treat her!
Let her chatter endlessly!
Ye Yaodong licked his lips and felt a little proud, "I kept listening to you and my attention was diverted. That's why my mouth was burned. You can't be responsible?"
"You can act hooligan in broad daylight without fear of being seen."
"What are you afraid of? We are a legal couple. How can we be called hooligans if we kiss each other? What happened in broad daylight?"
Seeing his confident appearance, Lin Xiuqing felt a little embarrassed. She was afraid of being overheard, so she quickly looked at the door, scared!
"Mom, why are you here..." Lin Xiuqing stood up instantly, her face flushed with embarrassment.
Ye Mu gave Ye Yaodong a look and said, "I'll help kill the fish."
Ye Yaodong felt that his mother appeared at the wrong time.
There is a high probability that there will be no more updates in the evening!
Will update more tomorrow! Definitely!
Chapter completed!
