Chapter 372 No Time
There is no need to go back to the village to find her great-grandfather at night. Li Xiuxian saw her great-grandfather at school.
She stepped forward happily: "Grandpa, why did you come to school?"
Grandpa pointed to a certain classroom with a smile and said: "There is something to do."
Li Xiuxian thought that her great-grandfather was here to help the school repair tile leaks, repair doors and windows, etc.
The current teaching buildings are all bungalows, and every winter and summer vacation, the school hires people to repair leaks in the classrooms.
Although the winter vacation has not yet come, the classroom pointed by my grandfather is unused and is a bit far away from the teaching classroom, so it will not affect students' classes.
I guess the school plans to repair it for some purpose!
She smiled and said: "Grandpa, my family has bought a new boat, and I would like to ask you to help us go to sea. ..."
Grandpa waved his hand after hearing this: "I am not free! I'm at school..."
Li Xiuxian: "It doesn't matter. You can help me after you finish your school work."
It only takes a few days to repair the leak.
Grandpa smiled and waved his hand: "I really don't have time, I rented a classroom in your school to open a canteen!"
Li Xiuxian was stunned for a moment: "Opening a canteen? Xiaoxia's idea?"
Grandpa said with a smile: "That's right! Thanks to Xiao Xia for pointing out a way to make money for me."
Li Xiuxian: "..."
"Grandpa, do you really believe that you can make money by opening a canteen in school? How can a child have any money?"
Grandpa said matter-of-factly: "Of course! If you don't believe me, why did I drive here? Little kid They are regular customers at the canteen, and adults will always give them a penny or two to spend.”
He has no great ability in his life. After living for decades, he has summed up an experience: then follow those who have ability. You can’t go wrong if you follow the right person!
Li Xiuxian: "..."
Why do so many people believe Jiang Xia's words?
At this time, the school bell rang, and the great-grandfather said: "Go to class quickly! I will clean up the room."
The great-grandfather left with great enthusiasm.
Jiang Xia not only pointed out a way for them to make money, but also asked her father to help hire a lawyer to help him sign a contract with the school.
In addition to paying the rent, he also gave the school 20% of the profits as dividends, and also promised to help the school with roof leaks for free during the winter and summer vacations, so the principal signed a twenty-year contract with him.
Originally, he thought he could sign for a maximum of ten years, but he didn't expect that he could sign for twenty years.
From now on until he stretches out his legs, there is no need to worry about not having a job.
In addition to renting a classroom in the school, he also spent a thousand yuan to buy a bungalow near the school gate that looked like it was about to collapse. When he got rich, he demolished it and built a new shop. .
Then the school won't let you rent it, and you have your own shop outside, so you can continue your business no matter what.
Li Xiuxian watched her great-grandfather hurriedly walk to the unused classroom, and pursed her lips: Opening a canteen? Aren't you afraid of losing money so much that you won't even have any pants left?
However, does Grandpa’s family have the money to open a canteen?
Did Jiang Xia borrow it? Or is it even the grandpa’s family that is richer than theirs?
The former makes Li Xiuxian feel angry, and the latter makes Li Xiuxian feel aggrieved.
All in all, I feel uncomfortable no matter how I think about it!

Today is another sunny day.
The Jiangxia couple started out to sea at 6:30, and they started trawling after an hour and a half.
The internet is set up every hour or so.
At twelve o'clock, Jiang Xia and Zhou Chenglei had already pulled three nets.
Each net weighs about three to four hundred pounds.
Today we mainly had small fish, and we didn’t encounter any large schools of fish.
And the three nets are all common fish before: sea bass, golden thread fish, oily fish, dragon fish, oily stickleback fish, dog mother, skinned fish, sea wolf fish, Spanish mackerel, etc. .
It’s very complicated, there are all kinds of fish!
The three-net fish weighs about one thousand kilograms and can be sold for about seventy or eighty yuan.
Today's harvest is a bit small, but it is impossible to make a lot of money every day.
Jiang Xia sat and sailed the boat.
Zhou Chenglei is dividing the fish.
Even though Zhou Chenglei was quick on his feet, after a long time, there were still a lot of them. The fish is too mixed!
Like oil thorns and fierce mud, these fish are smaller than the palm of Jiang Xia's hand. Mixed in the pile of miscellaneous fish, it is difficult to sort them.
If you don't have a little patience, you can't wait to throw them all back into the sea and pull the net again!
But Zhou Chenglei is not lacking in patience and his mood is stable.
Seeing that he was using his hands and feet, Jiang Xia sorted out the big fish and the smaller fish first.
Now almost all that are left are oil spines, mud meng and shrimps.
Noon arrived. Afraid that Jiang Xia would be hungry, he washed his hands and sailed the boat to Abalone Island to dock.
After he parked the boat, he jumped out to pry some oysters.
Jiang Xia loves to eat, but has not eaten for a long time.
Zhou Chenglei came back with a box of oysters and was about to use the coal stove to cook seafood noodles on the boat.
Zhou Chengxin also sailed over.
Zhou Chenglei waited for their boat to come alongside before cooking noodles, otherwise the boat would be too rocky.
After the two boats came together, Tian Caihua immediately jumped to their side of the boat. Seeing their boat full of fish, she envied: "You guys caught so many in one morning!"
She turned around and scratched Zhou Chengxin At one glance, he was told to go to sea with Jiang Xia and the others, but he still refused to listen!
Jiang Xia had already sat down to share the fish, "It's okay, they are just common small fish."
Zhou Chenglei cooked noodles and asked Tian Caihua: "Has sister-in-law eaten? I'll cook noodles. , do you want to eat?”
“I’ve eaten, but give me and your brother an extra bowl of noodles! Let’s eat something hot to warm ourselves up,” Tian Caihua said as she sat down. Help Jiang Xia divide the fish.
Zhou Chenglei didn't respond, but took an extra squid, a few shrimps and a few baby cuttlefish.
Zhou Chengxin asked Zhou Chenglei on the next boat: "Have you fed the fish?"
Zhou Chenglei: "Not yet."
After hearing this, Zhou Chengxin said: "Then I will feed it. Go! ”
< br>Zhou Chenglei: "No, I'll just go in a while. Come over and help me divide the fish first! Let's go to the sea together in a while and pry some scallops back. I found a lot of scallops in one place yesterday."
< br>
"Okay!" After hearing this, Zhou Chengxin put down the anchor, then jumped over to help divide the fish.
Three people divided the fish, which was much faster.
The noodles have just been cooked and they are almost ready to portion them.
Zhou Chenglei gave Jiang Xia a large enamel bowl of noodle soup. There were two poached eggs, two green vegetables, and seafood covered on the surface of the noodles. The shrimps were also peeled.
Tian Caihua held the noodles and took a sip of the hot soup. She felt comfortable: "You still know how to live a good life and are not afraid of trouble."
She always brought her meals in aluminum lunch boxes, then soaked them in hot water and forgot about it.
Zhou Chenglei didn’t say anything and only ate three meals a day. What’s the trouble?
Jiang Xia eats more now than before. Everything tastes delicious and her appetite is particularly strong.
She finished a big bowl of noodles. She could only eat half of it before.
Of course she could only eat half of the noodles before, but she could still finish the seafood.
She is the kind of person who eats a lot of vegetables and less staple food.
Zhou Chenglei asked her: "Do you want more?"
Jiang Xia still wanted to eat, but she shook her head: "I'm full, my stomach can't hold it anymore."
Zhou Chenglei noticed her greed and fed a plump oyster to her mouth: "Take another bite?"
Jiang Xia took a decisive bite.
fresh!
Sweet!
Tian Caihua: "I guess the child in your belly must be a son. I used to be so good at eating, and everything tasted delicious."
Jiang Xia just smiled.
After eating and washing the bowls, Zhou Chenglei carried Jiang Xia down to the beach and moved the deck chair down so that she could lie down when she was tired.
Then he and Zhou Chengxin sailed the boat to feed the fish.
Tian Caihua stayed with Jiang Xia on the beach.
