Chapter 138 Fish for pig baby?
Li Long was riding a bicycle. The back seat was covered with sack sheets. Li Juan sat on it, holding on to the iron pipe of the back seat tightly. She looked excitedly at both sides. Once she found a classmate, she would shout loudly. .
Li Long pedaled all the way to the elementary school with a smile. After Li Juan got off the car, he waved to her and hurried to the middle school.
Before the middle school class started, Li Long rode to the teacher's dormitory, set up his bike and carried his things to the door. When he saw Gu Xiaoxia's dormitory door open and she was packing her things inside, he shouted:< br>
“Xiaoxia.”
"You're here." Gu Xiaoxia heard Li Long's voice and turned around with a smile on her face, "Why did you get up so early?"
"The morning market opened early, so I went early so I could sell the fish." Li Long entered the dormitory naturally, put the basket on the ground, and said:
"This is It’s the fish I caught this morning. I didn’t bring it up for you. I’m afraid it won’t be cooked well.”
“I like to eat crucian carp slices the most. This kind of fish is just right, but there are too many...”
"Not much, give some to your colleagues." Li Long opened the cloth bag again and said:
"What's inside is roasted pork and mutton, sealed with oil. When you eat it, pick a chopstick or scoop out a spoon. It will last for a while. I will bring it to you after a while. By the way, this is bacon. , you also know that we are not used to pickling This one may have a strong salty taste, but the good thing is that it won’t go bad. Don’t add salt when you make it. Taste the saltiness. If not, wash it well..."
Listen to Li Long’s nagging instructions. Gu Xiaoxia smiled and said nothing.
After giving the instructions, Li Long said:
"I'm leaving. There are a lot of fish today. I estimate it will take more than an hour to sell them all. I'll come back to see you in two days. Take care of yourself. Ah."
After that, Li Long went out and rode away. Gu Xiaoxia only had time to run to the door and shouted:
"Pay attention to your safety!"
Li Long did not look back, waved his hand back, and turned out of the school.
“Is this your partner?” Teacher Wang Qihua next to him asked curiously.
"Not yet...it doesn't count." Gu Xiaoxia said with a slightly red face, but added in her heart, in fact, it should be forgotten after a while, right?
There is not a large local population in northern Xinjiang. Li Long's production team has a population of two to three hundred. Except for the younger generation who are from the local area, their parents came from all over the country, so there are basically no stereotypes. There may be some preference for boys over girls, but it is not serious. Girls can still go to school. It is also normal for men and women to fall in love freely.
Of course, everyone is still very attached to commercial grain. This has nothing to do with habits, but mainly the difference in treatment.
"He is very kind to you, what does he do?"
"A farmer." Gu Xiaoxia said.
"Then...are you willing?"
"Why are you not willing?" Gu Xiaoxia asked back, "I am also a farmer, there is not much difference."
< br>
"But you are already a teacher, not a farmer. You earn dozens of yuan a month, but he may not make more than half of what you earn throughout the year. How can it be the same?" Teacher Wang is not looking down on farmers, she is looking at it from the perspective of life. Let’s talk about this issue.
"But Li Long can earn me a month's worth of money in one day." Gu Xiaoxia sighed, "Look, he has bicycles and sewing machines, as well as horses and carriages..."
“His family used to be landlords?” Teacher Wang Qihua was a little confused. Surprised, "Why are you so rich?"
"No, he earned it all by himself. You see, he went to sell fish today and caught 40 to 50 kilograms of fish a day. Even if it costs 50 cents per kilogram, it would be enough for one day." Just over twenty yuan..."
Wang Qihua stopped talking. Such young people are really rare! Even if you are a farmer, there are a lot of girls you want to pursue, right?
Now she was worried about Gu Xiaoxia.
Li Long rode his bicycle and went to the Big Meat Canteen first. He put the bicycle outside, opened the door curtain and shouted:
"Manager Zhong, Manager Zhong!" Zhong Guoqiang walked out of it.
"Manager Zhong, do you want a big fish? There are big ones of more than three kilograms, and some of more than two kilograms."
Although Li Long caught a lot of fish this time, there were not as many carp as yesterday. There were more silver carp, white carp and grass carp, and less black carp.
"Yes, I want three kilograms, and give me three more than two kilograms - how much is one kilogram?"
"One piece." Li Long didn't ask because Zhong Guoqiang was an acquaintance. The price reduction is mainly because selling fish here will delay the time to go to the morning market, but if you come back after the morning market is sold out, the fish may die.
"Okay." Zhong Guoqiang nodded, he still knew the market price.
The four fish totaled more than ten kilograms but less than eleven kilograms. Li Long wiped out the fraction and took ten yuan. He declined Manager Zhong’s invitation to have breakfast, saying that he had to rush to the morning market to sell fish. .
Returning to the big yard, after getting the basin and scale, he quickly rode to the morning market. Li Long pushed the cart over and found that there was only one fish seller today, but there was one more meat seller.
To his surprise, there was actually a pig seller, and there were two of them.
He thought it was time to wait, and found that there was someone selling eggs in the middle of the stall who had sold out early and was about to leave. He immediately went over to occupy the seat, put a basin, poured the fish, and started selling.
Some people bought fish yesterday and thought it was good and came to see him today. Some people heard the shouting and asked about the price of the fish and thought it was cheap, and then they gathered around.
In addition, because of the good location today, Li Long's side suddenly gathered a lot of people.
Li Long was very experienced. He shouted while taking the fish:
"Everyone, everyone! Don't crowd! Otherwise, no one will be able to buy the fish if it is overturned. There is a lot of fish, more than fifty kilograms, everyone." There must be some, Come one by one, old man, do you want two yuan for crucian carp? Okay!"
Li Long is watching all directions, and while he is catching fish and collecting money, he has to guard against anyone trying to fish in troubled waters - -Did he see Only one person wanted to put his hand into the basin and pull or pinch the fish, so he stretched out his foot and kicked the hand out unceremoniously:
"There are too many people, don't pinch the fish. If you pinch the fish to death, you won't buy it." It’s my loss, let’s understand each other, don’t go too far!”
The person who reached out wanted to get angry, but Li Long preempted him and made him face the glare of many people-buying fish itself is a problem. Urgent, if someone is causing trouble to others, you are welcome.
Li Long vaguely recognized that the person pinching the fish was the person next to the fish stall earlier.
Is it because the price of your fish is low that makes the other party unhappy, or is it because your business is so good that the other party is jealous?
Fortunately, the first group of people buying fish left soon, and there were fewer people behind, so Li Long could take a breath and relax for a while.
This group of fish buyers bought more than ten kilograms of fish and received more than ten yuan. Li Long felt that his mood suddenly improved.
Next were the fish buyers. Li Long took the opportunity to look at the pig sellers over there and found that one of them had already left. He didn’t know whether he had left after selling out or not.
The remaining one was also looking around. Li Long was a little anxious. He thought for a while, and while no one was buying fish, he hurried over and asked:
"Brother, how did you sell this little pig?" "Male or female?"
"One male and one female, ten yuan each." When the man saw someone asking for the price, his eyes lit up and he said hurriedly, "We have too many to raise." come over You see, you are not selling a nest, you are living a good life!"
Li Long hesitated, he turned to look at his fish stall, and then said:
"Brother, I'm selling fish over there, so I can't stay for long, so I'm just asking, can two of them cost 16 yuan? OK, I'll take them away now. I'm still selling fish over there, so I have to go back now."
The man hesitated.
Sell or not?
Thanks to Maple Leaf Love book friends for the tip, the Yizhao Highway is about to open, and we really put a lot of effort into traveling in Yili - both Duku and Yizhao opened many days earlier than in previous years, which is great !
