Lao Zhao didn't have dinner last night and was worried about it all night. At five o'clock in the morning, when Song Tan's family just got up, he was already squatting at the door!
Originally, he wanted to accuse Song Tan of teasing him yesterday, but when he opened his mouth, what came out for some reason was——
"What are you having for breakfast?"
What to eat?
We have to fish early in the morning, which is strenuous work, so we need to eat something to keep our stomachs at bay. The seventh cousin specially cooked a pot of rice last night and put it in the morning. No, he knocked on the big spoon and said:
"Fried rice with garlic sprouts and eggs, do you want to eat it?"
The green garlic sprouts are simply cut into sections and stir-fried with the leftover rice along with the golden eggs. In the pot, the stewed pork fat cubes are also cut into pieces and stir-fried until crispy, and then paired with a bowl of snow-white and slightly sour noodle soup...
"Oh my! Eating this early in the morning is not healthy!"
Lao Zhao Meizi first served himself a large bowl - his way of eating was even less healthy, a bowl of rice with a large spoonful of batter, stirred into a thick consistency, chopsticks to pull the hot surface into a ball, and then took a bite Eat——
The salty and crispy crispiness of diced pork, the spicy taste of freshly cut garlic sprouts, the tangy aroma of golden eggs, and the happiness brought by the incomparable starch of fried rice...
tasty! ! !
While holding a bowl and planning rice, he also wanted to teach his eldest nephew: "Eat slowly, it is hard to digest if you eat it so early in the morning. Oh, we usually eat some porridge and side dishes, which is also quite healthy..."
The seventh cousin can't stand this kind of person, and he can't even shut up when he eats!
But...
At this moment, the seventh cousin asked Song Tan:
"Tan Tan, when selling fish today, sell less and keep more for our family."
Song Tan was stunned: "How about leaving dozens more big fish?"
Lao Zhao choked instantly!
I'm so choked up! I'm going to roll my eyes!
He clutched his chest, and his heart pounded when his eldest nephew aimed his fist at him. After finally catching his breath, he heard his seventh cousin write lightly:
"Well, keep some more. It's still half a year before the Chinese New Year, so we won't run out of fish at home."
"By the way, I think Boss Zhao's business is doing well? Then don't sell some of the mediocre ones later, otherwise he won't be able to resell them... Keep the white fish strips, small river shrimps, etc. We can just eat it at home.”
Lao Zhao held his heart in his hands. At this moment, his dream was as close as his job!
He jumped out quickly: "Song Tan, I don't choose the species! I can do any kind of river shrimp, loach, or small white fish!"
However, Song Tan shook his head: "That won't work. The Xiaohe shrimp wholesale market is selling for 30 per catty. Yesterday, we sold it because the quantity was small and we were not selective. Today, if you charge 38 per catty, I will lose money, so I won't sell it."
Their local small river shrimps are not big, and even the largest ones are no bigger than a little finger. The color is blue-gray, the shell is translucent, especially fresh and tender, and full of vitality. It really looks like Qi Baishi's "Shrimp".
When Song Tan was a child, the children would touch a few of them in the fields by the pond, and they would just pinch them and put them in their mouths!
Tender, sweet and not fishy at all!
But it doesn’t work anymore. Firstly, crayfish are gradually overflowing, and the water quality is gradually getting worse. The living space of this small river shrimp is gradually disappearing.
Secondly, now we have to pay attention to parasites! If it's raw in water, you can't eat it if you can.
After all, this kind of thing is just a precaution.
Furthermore, this kind of shrimp is too delicate and cannot be kept in the water after being caught. It usually depends on luck to encounter it in the vegetable market.
Lao Zhao was anxious: "The price is not determined! If you think it's not suitable, let's discuss it. Why don't you just say it won't be sold?"
Don't tell me, he also wants river shrimps!
Go back and stir-fry leeks and river shrimps, that guy! delicious! Let’s eat! He can show off two more bowls!
Song Tan really thought about it.
But let’s not talk about how much of the river shrimp can be caught. At this price, even if it doesn’t cost 60, it’s not worth it! But 60 per pound, how much can it have? It can't even be raised in water again...
Forget it, let’s not sell it, just like the seventh cousin said, keep some for the family!
After all, if you don’t eat this stuff, your family will eat a bowl of it in one meal, so it’s better not to sell it.
After thinking about it, Song Tan made a decision: "We'll see later, why don't we sell the white fish sticks at all?"
A small fish of about ten centimeters, fried and dried before being stewed, is called a crispy bone with soft spines, so there is no need to worry about the spines. She can eat a whole plate at a meal, and it is very easy to eat.
Seeing that the breakfast was not finished, there were already two items missing. Lao Zhao was holding a big bowl of fragrant fried rice, feeling greedy and heartbroken. At this moment, he only regretted that he didn't burn incense this month!
Otherwise, why would it be like this!
The eldest nephew, on the other hand, was concentrating on the rice without any distractions, and soon finished the third bowl, which was so satisfying!
The satisfied honest man even helped persuade Lao Zhao:
"Boss Song is very kind to us, otherwise, if you look at it, most of the shrimps would have died if we went back within an hour or two..."
"Besides, it's very troublesome to put away the white fish sticks. We'll probably have to pay extra for the market helpers later. It's not cost-effective!"
"It's just a serious big fish. It would be great if you go to the store and catch it and kill it!"
Lao Zhao:......
With half a mouthful of rice in his mouth, he looked at his eldest nephew who stabbed him in the back. At this moment, he only hated: Why does such a good young man have a mouth?
…
Early in the morning, Zhou Maozhu and several people who helped yesterday were waiting by the pond.
Seeing Song Sancheng, and without the dense crowd of customers in the city, a few people couldn't wait to ask: "Sancheng, did your fish really sell for 40 a catty yesterday? Is it so difficult to buy fish now?"
Really crazy!
They had been thinking about it all night. They really couldn't figure out why the fish——
And here, Song Sancheng, who had no intention of hiding anything, remembered what Song Tan had said, and at this moment he also looked at it with an understatement that was not worth mentioning:
"Really! Weren't you here yesterday? The price was like that."
In fact, he cast the net too many times yesterday, and his waist was still a little stiff early this morning. He couldn't help but rub it while taking the opportunity to think about how to answer...
The more he thought about it, the more serious he became, and the more it seemed that 40 pounds was normal.
really!
It was natural for him to answer in an understatement, but Zhou Maozhu and others looked incredulous:
"Is it so profitable to build a fish pond now? It's okay to sell the fish on the spot. Why are you still rushing to buy it? At first, I was wondering if you were looking for a shill?"
"No, no, no!"
Song Sancheng waved his hand: "You haven't seen how much our family has invested in this fish pond - if nothing else, do you know who the little old man who followed us up the mountain yesterday looked ordinary?"
"Let me tell you, we have never seen such a great person in our lives - the famous Professor Song from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences!"
"Do a search on Douyin, and there's something about him on Douyin, and he's also on Baidu Encyclopedia! Tantan invited these for his family's pond, vegetable patch, and tea mountain!"
Good night!
