Chapter 22 Showing off, just to make him angry
The next day, the sky gradually became brighter, and the Xu Hai brothers came to Tan’s house, carrying buckets and covered with filth. At that time, Tan Shaoyang was at home, and the father and son set off to sea. , the woman went out to catch the sea.
In a small fishing village, as long as there is something to do, whether it is catching the sea or weaving nets, there will be no time to spare.
The two brothers were very lucky. They caught a lot of blue crabs in the mangroves in the past. The blue crabs were of different sizes. The heavy ones weighed eight taels, and the small ones weighed half a catty. It was obvious at first glance. I know that the ointment is enough.
Tan Shaoyang took a look at it. At this time, the green crab paste was quite sufficient, and it was very popular with the guests when served on the table. He gave them a thumbs up and praised,
"Not bad, you guys choose and weigh them separately. The big one is 4 cents and the small one is 2 cents."
The brothers picked quickly and could exchange money immediately. Who would be vague? After weighing, they made a profit I paid eight yuan, enough to buy a bag of rice.
Don’t think that 8 yuan is a small amount, it is really a lot at this time. The brothers laughed so hard that their eyes were closed. If the tide had not risen and fallen, they would have wanted to pick it up!
Hard work but worth it!
This also proves that they have the capital to survive.
Tan Shaoyang handed them the money and said, "You are also tired after a night, go back to sleep."
The brothers yawned and went home to catch up on their sleep.
Tan Shaoyang put away the blue crabs and went out to receive the goods.
The weather has improved and there are not as many fish stocks as there are strong winds and waves, but if you are lucky, you can still pick up valuable fish. Catching the sea depends on luck.
When he passed by, the dumb girl's father was busy. Tan Shaoyang took a look at the goods he received. There were quite a lot of sea cucumbers, and it was enough to make this trip today.
Tan Shaoyang looked at the mute girl's father, smiled and praised, "Not bad, I received a lot of goods! I can fill my pocket again."
Tan Shaoyang is not at home these days, so the mute girl's father has to Damn it, no one is trying to compete with him, it must be his world again, the smile on his face is almost reaching the back of his ears.
The dumb girl’s father didn’t care about Tan Shaoyang’s teasing, and smiled brightly. Who can be unhappy about making money?
As soon as people are in a good mood, they start to feel depressed, "Young people have to be more diligent. Three days of fishing and two days of drying nets are not enough!"
Tan Shaoyang nodded and said, He said with a reasonable tone, "I went back to my grandma's house for a trip and caught a wild boar and two wolfdogs in the mountains. I made dozens of yuan, so I became a little lazy."
"I just had a good meal and overslept. Thank you for your concern. I will work harder and won't be lazy anymore."
The dumb girl's dad: "..." Who cares whether he is diligent or lazy? ah? I wish he wouldn't even come to compete with him for business!
What kind of luck is that? I went for a walk in the mountains and even hunted wild boars, and made dozens of dollars. This was more than he had ever earned!
A wild boar weighs at least one to two hundred pounds, which makes me depressed just thinking about it.
As the saying goes, vegetable vendors eat yellow leaves.
Although I make a lot of money selling seafood, I am not willing to spend lavishly. I usually eat dead seafood and just make do with one meal. I haven’t eaten meat for more than half a month, right?
The money was saved for his eldest grandson, so he was not willing to spend it casually.
Being shown off like this now made his teeth itch with hatred, and he felt very flat looking at his face.
Every time I talk to him, I get angry. Fortunately, it's not his son-in-law, otherwise he will be angry to death sooner or later.
The mute girl's father waved his hand, not wanting to see him anymore, "Aren't you busy collecting the goods? Stop wandering around here, hurry up and get busy!" Save yourself the trouble of irritating people here, and treat him well My mood was completely disturbed.
Tan Shaoyang shrugged and did not insist on staying. He just caused trouble before leaving.
"By the way, I heard that your little son-in-law wants to buy a ship and go to sea. You are very wealthy as a father-in-law. A ship costs thousands or even thousands of dollars at least! You are really the most willing father-in-law. "
The dumb girl's father looked confused and obviously didn't know what he was talking about. He stepped forward to stop him, "I didn't hear what you just said. Please speak clearly."
Tan Shaoyang looked suspicious, and the look on his face was intriguing, "Don't you know that Lao Tie told him to buy a boat? It's still a refueling ship. He said he would pay as much as he paid, and he would pay off what he owed slowly." The dumb girl's father After hearing this, my heart skipped a beat. After all, he was in business and had experience in making money. Boats can be bought casually, but if they cost a penny less, they won't sell them!
It really is your own thing, you can control it however you want.
Isn’t this obviously cheating others of their money?
The dumb girl’s father was not in the mood to stay here anymore, so he hurriedly packed up the fish and went home, worried that the dumb girl’s heartless girl would take all his money away.
Tan Shaoyang looked at his movements and asked with a smile, "Are you just closing the stall? You can still set it up for a while!"
"There are still many at the beach who have not returned yet. .”
The dumb girl's father said a few perfunctory words and left in a hurry.
He is working hard here, and the other party is counting the money in his pocket. No matter how much he earns, it is never enough!
Tan Shaoyang looked at the person's leaving figure and said with a smile, "Zhou Bapi." He could make other people's money, but it would be very difficult for others to take his money.
After the mute girl’s father left, it was Tan Shaoyang’s world.
Seeing Brother Shui walking over in a mess, Tan Shaoyang asked, "Brother Shui, have you picked up anything valuable?"
Brother Shui carried the bucket in front of him and let him take a look.
Tan Shaoyang's eyes suddenly lit up. He saw a cat shark weighing about two kilograms, with blurred black stripes and brown spots.
There are no wounds on his body and he looks very lively.
Tan Shaoyang said, "I'm lucky. What price do you want to sell it for?"
Brother Shui said, "What price do you think you can give me? You can't trick people like the dumb girl's father, right? ?”
Tan Shaoyang raised three fingers, "3 yuan."
Brother Shui was obviously not satisfied, "Give me more, it's really hard for me to catch it, it took me two hours! I'm so tired from all the hard work. It's all gone."
Tan Shaoyang looked embarrassed, "I would like to give you some extra money, but I can't do it at a loss. It's 3 yuan and 5 yuan. You see if you can sell it. If you can, it's a deal. If it doesn't, you can take it back. "Home."
Brother Shui clicked his tongue, and Tan Shaoyang was extremely embarrassed to bargain with him. He just followed others and said, "The cat shark is difficult to catch, otherwise I can't even give him the price of 3.5 yuan." . ”
“As long as the dumb girl’s father is not here, if you sell it to him, he will definitely keep the price at two yuan.”
"I gave this price because I am from a small fishing village. It is a very conscientious price. Even if I sell it, I won't make much profit. If I die on my hands, I will still lose money!"
< br>"Think about it, this is what happens with the goods on the sea. They are worth some money when they are alive, but they can only be stewed in a pot when they are dead."
"No one will spend money to buy a dead fish. "
Tan Shaoyang tried his best to finally win down the cat shark.
Brother Shui put the money into his pocket and asked, "Will you keep the fish you caught?"
"Take the ones that don't die."
Later, I received some more sea cucumbers and abalones one after another. The prices he gave were very fair, and the storage would not cause any problems.
