Chapter 19 Beihai went to buy fish and met Yan Shaopi
The old man lived in Balizhuang in the western suburbs of the city. His surname was Bai and his name was Bai Laoyao. Needless to say, he should be named according to his age.
Because the youngest child is the youngest, it is estimated that the parents are not very educated and they named the child very casually.
Actually, this is normal. According to the age of the old man, naming was very casual at that time.
Next, Li Jia went around the entire pigeon market and bought four more ducks and three goslings.
He didn't buy anything else because he didn't need it. He wanted to buy some pork, but unfortunately he didn't have it.
There were some live chickens, but they were quickly bought and it was not his turn at all.
Things that don’t require tickets are indeed easy to sell, but if they require tickets, they probably won’t sell.
Because if there are tickets, people will not come here to buy them. They can just go to the market to buy them, and it is still close.
After coming out of the pigeon market on the Fuxingmen side, Li Jiayi did not go home, but went directly to Beihai.
There are six seas in the imperial capital, from south to north they are the South China Sea, the Zhonghai Sea, the North Sea, the Qianhai Sea, and the Shichahai Sea, which are also known as the Houhai Sea and the West Sea.
The one closest to Xinjiekou is definitely Xihai, but Xihai is relatively far from his home.
The West Sea is near Jishuitan, while Li Jia and his family are in Ping'an, one in the north and the other in the south.
From his home to the seas, it can be said that Beihai is the closest.
He went to the North Sea not to play, but there should be a lot of fishermen there, and he wanted to see if he could buy some fish.
Forget about the big fish, he wouldn’t even take it if it was given to him for free. Don’t forget, it was only a few years after the founding of the People’s Republic of China!
Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, there were either little devils or bald people here. Many people died at that time!
So who dares to eat the big fish? Anyway, he didn't dare to eat it. Not only did he not dare to eat it, he also wouldn't let his family members eat it.
It’s better to buy some fish that haven’t grown up yet and keep them in a space. It won’t take long for them to grow up.
By the time Li Jiayi arrived in Beihai, it was already an hour later, and at this time, it was almost eleven o'clock.
Without a watch, I could only estimate the time by looking at the sun.
Just as he thought, there are many people fishing, the ration of meat is very small, and it is too expensive to buy meat at Pigeon Market, so many people want to catch some fish to improve their lives.
Li Jiayi has no intention of fishing! It's not that he doesn't want to, but he is too young and it's okay to hook a small fish. If the fish is bigger, it can probably pull him into the water.
After Li Jiayi came here, he did not watch other people fishing. Instead, he walked along the shore and looked into other people's buckets.
But he was a little disappointed, because most people's buckets were empty. Even if they were not empty, there were only one or two small fish in them.
He really wanted it, but it was so small that he couldn't give a price. There was no way, it was too small.
The big ones only have two or three taels, and the small ones probably don’t even have one tael.
Nowadays, the big fish in Pigeon Market only costs 40 cents per catty, and they don’t require tickets. How can I pay for the two or two taels?
If you give me a few cents, people will think you are here to cause trouble and delay others' fishing.
When passing by a middle-aged man, Li Jiayi's eyes lit up because there were more than a dozen fish in this middle-aged man's bucket.
Although they are all very small, there are a lot of them! And there are all kinds of fish, including silver carp, grass carp, carp, crucian carp, etc.
It's not that there are no other fish, but he doesn't know them. He must have eaten cooked ones, but he has never seen them alive.
"Uncle, do you sell this fish?"
"Do you want to buy fish?" The middle-aged man turned around and asked.
The middle-aged man has a triangular face and wears a pair of glasses.
In fact, middle-aged people are worried! All we caught today were small fish, and aquatic products stores wouldn’t accept them, let alone factories. Then you can only take it back and eat it, but it would be a pity to eat it by yourself.
If you sell it, buy some whole grains, which will be enough for a family to eat for several days. It won’t even be enough for one meal.
"Yes, are you selling it?"
"Sell it, how much do you think it will cost?" The middle-aged man put down the fishing rod and stood up and asked.
"How much do you think is appropriate?" Li Jiayi asked.
"How about one dollar?" the middle-aged man asked, adjusting his glasses.
“Uh!” Li Jia was stunned for a moment.
I am simply speechless, because this kind of small fish is not valuable. Even if the price is the same as that of the big fish, the total of these dozen small fish does not weigh more than two kilograms!
Based on two kilograms, it’s only eighty cents at most. I asked for a piece directly. I really dared to ask for it.
At this time, an old man fishing next to him said: "I said, Lao Yan, the fish you have is not even worth fifty cents. If you want one piece from someone else's child, aren't you afraid that someone else's family will come to find you?"
< br>"What's the matter? He buys and I sell, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer." The middle-aged man known as Lao Yan adjusted his glasses again and said.
"You..." The old man next to him shook his head and said nothing more.
"Uncle, just follow what this old man said, fifty cents. If you sell it, I will buy it. If you don't sell it, forget it."
Although Li Jiayi doesn't care about the price, he can't It's not like he suffered such a big loss. Besides, looking at what he was wearing, he didn't look like a poor man.
Although the clothes looked very old, they didn’t even have a patch, and they also wore glasses. You know, glasses are not cheap in this era!
The middle-aged man known as Lao Yan was very troubled, but seeing Li Jiayi's attitude of leaving if you don't sell it, he quickly said: "Okay, it's only fifty cents, I'll sell it to you."
Li Jiayi first handed over the fifty cents, and then took out a net bag from his schoolbag.
He specially went to the supply and marketing cooperative to ask for this before he came over. The supply and marketing cooperative is not short of this stuff, because many things sold by the supply and marketing cooperative need to be carried in net bags.
Although fish are easy to die if they leave the water, it is still okay to leave them for a short time.
No, after the middle-aged man known as Lao Yan took the money, he poured the water and fish into the net bag that Li Jiayi took out.
Holding the net bag, Li Jiayi said: "You continue fishing, I will leave first."
Of course, when leaving, he did not forget to thank the old man next to him. After all, They kind of helped him.
Not far away, Li Jia turned around and got into the woods, then took the fish into the space and put it into the fish pond.
Then some spiritual springs were introduced into the fish pond.
Anyway, there is so much spiritual spring water whether you use it or not. After using it before, it immediately returned to the same state as before.
As soon as the spiritual spring water entered the fish pond, the whole fish pond became frothy, which surprised Li Jiayi.
Because there are a lot of fish in the fish pond, the big ones even weigh seven or eight pounds.
Soon Li Jiayi understood what was going on. Half a month ago, when they were catching fish in the creek, he collected dozens of small fish into the space.
Originally, he thought those were fish in the stream and would never grow big. Now he knew that he was wrong. It was not what he thought at all.
