Mu Chenze felt that he was being disliked again, and he was in a bad mood. "Can you stop talking about this all the time? Isn't this the case where you don't open the pot?"
Chu Xuan smiled and apologized, "I was wrong! I promise not to say that again in the future. Don't be angry! Don't punish yourself for my mistakes. Only by being happy every day can you live a long life."
When Mu Chenze heard these words, he felt much better.
"That's pretty much it."
Chu Xuan urged softly, "Now can you tell me what you want me to promise?"
Mu Chenze's tone contained a warning, "From now on, you can only come here during the day to catch the sea, and you are not allowed to come over at night. If I find out, I will directly change my partner."
Chu Xuan knew that he was doing it for her own good, "Okay! I promise you! By the way, how often should we divide the money for the seafood sold? Every day or every month?"
"Every day is too troublesome, and every month is too long. How about every five days! From now on, any day with a 5 and a 0 on the monthly calendar will be the day we settle accounts."
"Ok, no problem."
At this moment, Chu Xuan seemed to regard Mu Chenze as his boss.
Whatever the boss says is what she wants, not to mention that the boss only wants 30%, but she, a migrant worker, can get 70%, which makes her excited just thinking about it.
When they arrived near the pier, Mu Chenze handed the bucket of fish to Chu Xuan, "Go on your own!"
Chu Xuan joked, "Aren't you afraid that I will sell it at a low price?"
Mu Chenze replied seriously, "I'm not afraid."
As crazy as she is, she will never suffer a loss.
Turn around and leave.
Chu Xuan laboriously carried two buckets of fish to Li Tong's stall and said, "Boss Li, let me borrow your basin to sort them."
Then weigh again.
Li Tong immediately handed over a basin and said, "Divide and weigh each one. I promise to give you a high price."
"Okay."
Chu Xuan classified the fish smoothly.
There are more sea bass, so weigh them first.
Li Tong wrote down the kilograms in his book and said, "Forty-nine kilograms and six taels, I'll give you fifty kilograms. I'll take one and a half kilograms, which is 75 yuan."
Soon, Chu Xuan separated the skinned fish.
Li Tong was responsible for the weighing, "Twenty-nine pounds, I'll give you thirty pounds, seven cents per pound, two yuan and ten cents."
Hearing the price, Chu Xuan smiled helplessly. This kind of ugly fish is really worthless now! Prices will be different in a few decades.
I don’t have time to make grilled fish fillets now, so just sell them.
She decided to stop picking and skinning fish until her own small fish fillet workshop was established.
Picking out six octopuses and six fist-sized swimming crabs, Li Tong bumped his hands and said without weighing them, "I'll give you four yuan and nine cents for these two. Including the first two, the total is 82 yuan." .”
There was also a mullet in the bucket. Chu Xuan didn't sell it anymore and planned to keep it for the construction team at noon tomorrow.
Eat well to be efficient.
After a while, I went home with 82 yuan in my pocket, carrying fishing gear and a mullet.
After arriving home, Chu Xuan took out 82 yuan, put it in his younger brother's hand, and warned, "Keep good accounts, 30% of which will be given to the partners."
Chu Feng was about to ask who the partner was, but Chu Xuan blocked him, "Don't ask who the partner is. Otherwise, they won't cooperate with me."
Chu Feng chuckled and said, "Then I won't ask any questions. I will only take care of the money."
Life is getting better and better now. I am building a new house. I eat well every day, sleep soundly, and read books. I don’t have to go out to sea with a ship to suffer and starve. I am happier than a god.
Chu Feng is definitely the only one who obeys her sister at home.
His sister said he would go east, but he would never go west.
Chu Feng left hot water in the kitchen, and Chu Xuan walked into the kitchen with a change of clothes.
Chu Feng went back to the bedroom to count the money, hide it and keep accounts.
At night, after Chu Xuan lay down, he couldn't help but think that his younger brother was doing well and becoming more and more sensible. I hope he would not make any detours in the future.
The next morning, a tofu vendor happened to pass by. Chu Xuan bought two kilograms of tofu and made mullet and tofu soup for lunch. It was delicious just thinking about it.
It costs 7 cents per catty, and two catties cost one dollar and four.
If there were food stamps, it would be cheaper, less than 5 cents per pound. The problem was that Chu Xuan no longer had food stamps.
The food stamps I used to buy food last time were exchanged with someone else.
Fortunately, now that I have money, I can buy high-priced grain.
At about 9:30 in the morning, Chu Xuan went out carrying a bucket with tools for catching the sea.
I stopped by Liu Zhaodi's house and bought a large backpack for thirty cents.
The backpack was woven from wicker by Liu Zhaodi, who would usually go to the town's market to sell it for money. It is half a meter high and is strong and durable.
More than half an hour later, Liu Zhaodi took her second brother to catch the beach. They looked around the beach but did not see Chu Xuan.
He murmured in his heart, looking at the tools Chu Xuan just brought to catch the sea, they should be for catching the sea, why didn't they come?
At this moment, Chu Xuan had already taken a detour through the mountain road and reached the place where he went to catch the sea last night.
The pace was fast today and the tide had not yet receded in this area, so Chu Xuan waited patiently for about ten minutes.
The wet beach was exposed, as were clams, small conches and the like.
Those tide pools are covered by sea water and have not yet been exposed.
Anyway, it was idle time. Chu Xuan put the basket and bucket aside and squatted down to pick up clams and small conches.
There are a lot of snails spinning today.
The snail is not big in size, but the meat is very tender, fragrant, smooth and elastic.
Some people find it difficult to take out the snail meat because it is cooked in the wrong way.
This must be placed in a pot with cold water and then simmered over low heat. After the water boils, cook for another 3 minutes, then turn off the heat and simmer for 5 minutes.
In this way, the cooked snail meat will not shrink in the shell, and you can eat it by gently prying it with a toothpick.
More than twenty minutes later, Chu Xuan picked up a third of the backpack, stood up, and gently beat his sore body with his hands.
Leaving the panniers where they were, I picked up my bucket and tools and headed toward the tide pools where I caught a lot of fish last night.
On the way, I picked up six stranded blue-scaled fish and three fist-sized swimming crabs and threw them into the bucket.
When I got to the tide pool, I checked one by one. Although there were not as many fish as last night, there were two bass weighing about six pounds.
Fill the bucket with some sea water and place it next to the tide pool.
After a while, Chu Xuan picked up a bass with a hand net and put it into the bucket.
When she went to catch the second fish, she suddenly heard a sound in the distance, which seemed to be the sound of a fish's tail slapping on the beach.
She stopped what she was doing and looked up.
Good guy, a big bass weighing more than 20 pounds on the beach in the distance is trying to return to the sea water.
She ignored the fish in the tide pool and ran towards the big bass with her hand net in hand.
When I got there, I realized that it looked very similar to the one I hadn't caught that night.
Is that the one?
It seems that the fish belongs to whomever it is.
Chu Xuan happily used his hand net to wrap the fish's head and most of its body, and dragged it in the direction of the basket on his back.
The hand net was a bit small for this fish, but hauling it was no problem.
The fish is still alive and trying to break free from time to time.
Chu Xuan would not let it go his way.
One person and one fish walked to the basket.
Easily get the fish into the basket.
Chu Xuan returned to the tide pool and caught another bass. It started to rain.
She gives up when she sees fit.
Carrying the bucket, carrying the basket and fishing tools on my back, I went around the mountain road to prepare to sell fish at the dock.
Just halfway through the mountain road, a man's voice sounded behind him.
"What are you doing? If you want to live from now on, leave money to buy your way!"
