Chapter 454 Afraid of Nothing (Modified)
On the sixth day of junior high school, Ye Xian did not see Jiang Dong at Jiang Dong's high school reunion.
She waited outside all afternoon until the class reunion ended at dark, but she didn't see Jiang Dong coming.
She didn't know Jiang Dong's classmates, so she randomly found a male classmate to come up and inquire about them.
The other party glanced at her: "I don't know. I heard that I had to visit relatives suddenly and I didn't have time. Who are you? What do you want from Jiang Dong?"
Ye Xian thought about it and wanted to cause some trouble for Jiang Dong, so she said: "I am his partner."
Many students couldn't help but look at Ye Xian after hearing this.
Of course, everyone was just curious about what Jiang Dong's partner looked like.
After Ye Xian finished speaking, she turned around and left.
Anyway, she doesn't need to worry about whether Jiang Dong will be angry or not if he finds out!
There is no need to worry about whether Zhang Fuyan will quarrel with Jiang Dong if she finds out.
They get angry and quarrel and then break up, that's better!
What is she afraid of now?
My studies are gone, my future is gone, everything is gone!
What else is she afraid of?
She is not afraid of anything!
Now that she has been forced to a dead end, no one can have an easy time!
It's all over!
If it weren't for the fear of being caught, Ye Xian would have wanted to borrow money from Jiang Dong's classmate in the name of Jiang Dong's partner, and make him angry to death!
After Ye Xian left, she went downstairs to the Jiang family to check on the situation.
Sure enough, Jiang Dong's jeep was not there, nor were Jiang's father's and Jiang's mother's cars.
Jiang's father and Jiang's mother should have jobs.
Jiang Dong probably followed his sister to visit relatives.
Jiang Dong is still the same Jiang Dong. His sister rushed over to work as a coachman just after a phone call.
When discussing a partner with her, he would listen to his sister on everything.
I don’t know that Jiang Xia is just bossing him around and taking advantage of him!
If it weren't for Jiang Xia, she and Jiang Dong wouldn't have broken up.
Ye Xian went to make a phone call.
The person on the other end of the phone didn't know that Jiang Dong would suddenly not go to the class reunion.
All subsequent plans were disrupted.
She added: "I'll try to find someone to ask Jiang Dong out. You saw Jiang Dong yesterday. How are the Jiang family and that family related? Are they very close? Go back and see if Jiang Dong spends the night there."< br>
Ye Xian: "Not a relative of the Jiang family, just a poor relative of Jiang Dong's brother-in-law's family."
Ye Xian really found out.
Several nearby villages are members of the same production team, and anyone with a bit of gossip will know who has some powerful relatives.
So it is easy for Ye Xian to know what relatives are.
The person on the other end of the phone was very interested in poor relatives, so he asked Ye Xian: "Why is he so poor? Does his family have any difficulties?"
Ye Xian was speechless. Which family in the village is not poor now, and which family is not in difficulty?
But he still analyzed the reasons why the other party's family was poor.
Ye Xian is also a gossip, and she talks a bit too much.
"Her daughter is very beautiful. Many people came to her door and offered to introduce her daughter to someone, but she refused. I heard people said that she wanted to find someone with an employer for her daughter. But her daughter had just graduated from junior high school and had no job. Who is interested in someone with an employer? Everyone who has an employer wants to find someone with an employer and a good job!”
"You can't say too much, a girl's beauty is her biggest asset."
It seems she has found another way.
*
Jiang Xia's family returned home on the afternoon of the seventh day of the Lunar New Year.
Jiang's father and Jiang's mother were not at home, and they officially started working on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year. When Jiang Dong came home, he stayed at home alone, so he continued to stay in the fishing village to help with work. .
We don’t go to sea during the first month of the year, but that doesn’t mean there’s no work to do.
The weather is not cold and sunny during the Chinese New Year this year. Zhou Chenglei plans to use this time to plant the wooden piles used to raise mussels.
In the afternoon, Zhou Chenglei went to the production team to rent a small beach for trial breeding.
Early the next morning, Zhou Chenglei took Jiang Dong to the city to buy wood. By the way, he brought the sugar cane, cassava, dried bamboo shoots, fresh bamboo shoots, taro, mushrooms, shrimp crackers, dried sweet potatoes, and camellia seeds that his grandma got from his uncle's house. Oil and other items were sent back to Jiang's house, and bags of stuff were piled up in the small utility room.
Jiang Dong left a note and went to buy wood with Zhou Chenglei.
In the afternoon, the two of them pulled a large tractor load of wood home. Zhou Chengsen saw it and came out to help: "Why did you buy so much wood?"
With that said, he stepped forward to help move the wood.
After hearing this, Li Xiuxian walked out of the yard and asked curiously: "Why did A Lei buy so much wood?"
Zhou Chenglei: "I bought it and tried to raise mussels."
Jiang Xia also came out at this time: "Second brother, do you want to raise her together? My eldest brother and my great-grandfather's family are also planning to raise her. It's not a troublesome thing to raise. Just rent a beach near the tidal flat in the village to raise her."
Zhou Chengsen: "I'll think about it."
He had to see if it was really no trouble.
Last time Zhou Chenglei brought back a bucket of mussels, and Li Xiuxian ate it. She didn't like it very much. It was too fishy. She couldn't help but said: "That thing is not delicious. Will anyone buy it? Is it easy to sell? We are here." Will the people around you not be used to it? ”
Jiang Xia: "I don't know about this anymore. You will know after you raise it. We don't know if we can keep it alive. We are just giving it a try. After all, it is a foreign object and we have never raised it before."
Li Xiuxian: "..."
She didn't even know whether she could make a living, but Li Xiuxian knew that Zhou Chenglei had made no profit from fish farming and had invested too much money.
Please...you...collect 6...9...books...!
"Forget it, it sounds like it's better to go fishing in the sea, and the fish in the sea cost nothing."
Jiang Xia ignored her.
In the next few days, Zhou Chenglei, Zhou's father, Zhou Chengxin, Zhou Yongguo, Zhou Kangping and Jiang Dong used the low tide time to go to the beach to plant wooden stakes.
Zhou Chengsen had already started working. When he came back in the afternoon, he also went to help, mainly to see if it was feasible.
That beach has a lot of algae and plankton, and the sun is good, which is suitable for the growth of mussels.
A few people sailed out to sea in the morning to put down ropes to collect mussel larvae. After returning, they went to plant wooden stakes on the beach after the tide went out, and worked on grass ropes at night.
Several villagers saw them planting wooden stakes on the beach. They walked down and asked curiously: "Yongfu, what are you doing? Do you plan to plant some wooden stakes to block fish?"
Zhou's father smiled and said: "A Lei plans to plant some wooden piles to raise mussels."
"What are mussels? I've never heard of them."
Father Zhou: "A kind of shellfish from abroad, the shell is a little green, and it is quite delicious."
Someone laughed after hearing this and said: "A Lei is really capable. He knows how to raise fish. Why are he raising foreign mussels now? He knows so much! No wonder you are so prosperous at such a young age!"
Father Zhou: "Do you want to raise them? If you want to raise them, you can raise them with us. Just buy some wood and make stakes."
When everyone heard this, they immediately waved their hands: "We don't raise them, we don't have the ability to raise them."
Several people watched for a while and then left. After they were far away, someone said:
"I really have so much money that I have nowhere to spend it, so I started to mess around again."
"You can't say that. Didn't the fish that Ah Lei raised before make a lot of money during the Chinese New Year? They sold for more than a thousand yuan!"
"What a profit! What a loss! Look, he rented two large sea areas, built so many cages, and bought anchors to fix the cages. How much money did he invest? How much did he make? Didn't you see Zhou Bingqiang raising a family with them? I lost all my money on fish? I just stopped raising it and lost money on the rent! I can guarantee that Zhou Chenglei won’t rent it again next year. It sounds like a lot, but it’s two pieces! The rent in the sea area is not enough!”
"It's okay to raise fish. At least I'm familiar with it and I can make a living. How about raising mussels from abroad! Oh, I've never heard of it. When they come to our village, I don't know if the mussels will be acclimatized!"
"I don't know. After all, not all fish in every sea area are the same. But the seas are connected, maybe."
"Young people are brave and dare to do anything! If you fall to pieces, you will be down to earth!"
……
Because wooden piles were planted on the beach near the village, many villagers discussed this matter.
Anything.
In fact, the money earned this year from fish raised in seabed cages is indeed not enough to rent.
Zhou Chenglei was the first to lose money in fish farming, so many people said that they had more money and started messing around again.
Jiang Xia and Zhou Chenglei didn't care either.
They go about their business unaffected.
Several people worked for seven days in total before planting 200 wooden stakes.
Jiang Dong, who has thin skin and tender flesh, was so busy that his hands blistered.
Tomorrow is the Lantern Festival. In the afternoon, Jiang Dong went home to spend the Lantern Festival with his parents.
Zhou Chenglei and Jiang Xia also went back with Jiang Dong.
Jiang Dong returned to Beijing after celebrating the Lantern Festival.
Jiang Xia was thinking about having a Lantern Festival reunion dinner with Jiang's father, Jiang's mother, and Jiang Dong at noon tomorrow, and then going home to eat with the Zhou family in the evening.
