Ten minutes later, the tide pool was gradually revealed, and they patrolled together. No one knew this place so far, and it seemed to be their own tide pool.
It's really a great deal.
The first tide pool is relatively large, with dozens of conchs inside, each larger than an adult man's fist.
Chu Xuan couldn't help but exclaimed, "Have you encountered a conch nest?"
Mu Chenze looked leisurely, "Here, it's very normal to encounter this kind of situation."
Chu Xuan hurriedly squatted down and fished out two snails. The surface of the shells had brown and tan patterns, and the mouth of the shell was orange-red, indicating that they were red-veined snails.
Eggs are laid from June to August every year.
This kind of conch lays a large number of eggs and has few natural enemies, so it is easy to cause flooding and destroy the ecological balance.
Its meat is plump, delicious and attractive, and it is rich in nutritional value. It’s not a bad idea to eat it!
It can not only satisfy the appetite, but also balance the marine ecology.
Let alone dozens, let's say hundreds. Even Chu Xuan and Mu Chenze wouldn't have too many.
The snail meat is cut into slices and stir-fried. Just thinking about it makes your mouth water.
The two of them stopped talking, only made eye contact, and started fishing for goods.
After fishing in the first tide pool, go to the second tide pool.
There were three bass and two mullet in it.
Then go to the third tide pool...
Each of the more than a dozen tide pools had good products, such as clams, snails, small crabs, etc. They didn't fish for them, but picked up more valuable ones. They fished them all the way down, and Chu Xuan's two wooden barrels and a large basket were filled to the brim. .
Seeing the tide rising, they stopped staying.
Chu Xuan was carrying a large basket on his back and holding tools to catch the sea in his hand.
Mu Chenze carried two barrels of goods on a pole, and the two of them walked around the mountain road to the dock, planning to sort them once they got there.
"Mu Chenze, are you free to come over tomorrow?"
Tomorrow will be a big news event, which may be even richer than today’s harvest.
Mu Chenze has been going out to sea with his family's boat in the past few days. Calculating the time, he will be able to dock before three o'clock tomorrow, and he should be able to arrive after the fish is sold out.
"You have time. You can buy two more large wicker baskets in advance, the kind with handles. If there are a lot of goods tomorrow, use a pole to carry them."
"Okay."
Among the harvest from the sea today, there were only a dozen skinned fish, which Chu Xuan deliberately caught despite Mu Chenze's objections. They couldn't sell them for much, so they wanted to keep them for grilled fish.
Just as he was about to discuss with Mu Chenze about not selling the skinned fish, Mu Chenze already said, "The skinned fish is not valuable. Can you take it home and make it into grilled fish fillets? If you don't know how, I will write a grilled fish fillet tonight. I’ll send you the production method.”
Chu Xuan was touched by his thoughtfulness, "Thank you! I will, and I will give you half of it when it is baked."
"Okay." Mu Chenze changed the shoulder pole to another shoulder and continued walking forward, "Chu Xuan, have you ever thought about doing business?"
Chu Xuan already regarded him as a good friend and did not hide it. "I have thought about it. I want to make grilled fish fillets from the skinned fish and sell them to the county and city. I can make sweet, salty, spicy, sweet and spicy flavors. What do you think?" ?”
Mu Chenze looked at her with admiration in his eyes, "You are a very thoughtful girl. I support you! From now on, if my fishing boat catches skinned fish, I will sell them to you for three cents a pound!"
Chu Xuan has sold skinned fish before, last time it cost seven cents a pound, and the price fluctuates every day. He joked, "You sold it cheap, aren't you afraid that your family will scold you?"
"Don't be afraid. The cheapest price for skinned fish is three cents per pound. My family won't care about this little money."
"Then thank you in advance! However, I will adjust the purchase price based on market conditions. I will have the final say on how much you will charge at that time."
"Fine."
Mu Chenze was too lazy to talk about this topic anymore.
When he approached the dock, Mu Chenze spoke again, "Chu Xuan, give me the basket. I will sell the goods, and you go to the ash forest and wait. After a while, the skinned fish will be left in the bucket for you. I will leave six pulses. Hongluo, do you want to keep a few?"
Chu Xuan understood without asking that he was doing it for her own good.
If the villagers knew about the bumper harvest this time, they would definitely ask about the place where the harvest was.
It was different when Mu Chenze went to sell, because his family owned a boat and often went to the dock to sell goods, so no one would suspect anything.
Chu Xuan made a rough estimate and estimated that the price would be around four hundred.
"I will also keep six red snails and sell the others for money, right?"
Mu Chenze knew that Chu Xuan was short of money recently. It cost money to see a doctor. He also needed to save money to renovate two other old houses. Money was used everywhere, so he had no objection.
Chu Xuan took off the backpack on his shoulders, took a long breath, and his shoulders relaxed instantly.
Even though Mu Chenze has broad shoulders and narrow waist, he is very strong.
He put a basket on his back, picked up two barrels of seafood, and walked towards the dock.
Go straight to Li Tong’s stall.
Li Tong greeted him with a smile, "Chenze, wasn't it sold out just now?"
Mu Chenze responded politely, "That's right. I haven't had time to share yet. Let me lend you a basin."
"no problem."
Li Tong handed over the wooden basin and helped Mu Chenze share it.
Mu Chenze warned in advance, "Leave me twelve red snails and skinned fish..."
Ten minutes later, the items were sorted and packed and weighed.
The large red snail weighs 119 kilograms and 6 taels. Calculated as 120 kilograms, it costs 8 cents per kilogram, totaling 96 yuan.
The sea bass is big, weighing 59 kilograms and 7 taels. Calculated as 60 kilograms, it costs one yuan and five yuan per kilogram, totaling 90 yuan.
Seventy-two pounds of mullet, each one alive. It was a necessary supplement for visiting patients in the 1980s. It costs 3 yuan per catty. When it is scarce, it can be sold at a higher price, a total of 216 yuan.
Sixty pounds of octopus costs 6 cents per catty, a total of 36 yuan.
A total of 438 yuan.
Settlement on the spot.
Ten minutes later, Mu Chenze walked to the ash tree forest carrying a backpack and a pole.
As for the barrel, it's in the backpack.
Chu Xuan walked out of the forest, his eyes shining brightly, "How is it? How much did it cost?"
Her expression fell in Mu Chenze's eyes, reminding him of the docile blue whale.
Pang Ni also has cute moments.
Mu Chenze looked as usual, took out a wad of money from his pocket and put it in Chu Xuan's hand, "Sold for 438 yuan."
Chu Xuan took it, counted out 300 yuan, and handed it to Mu Chenze, "Your dividend."
Mu Chenze did not answer, "It's too much. Before today, you only went there two or three times to catch the sea, and you only earned 600 yuan in total. If you give me 300 yuan all at once, isn't that 50-50? I only need 30% . If you don’t abide by the agreement, I will change my collaborator. I only need 200 yuan, no change! I have the final say on the great place I discovered!”
Chu Xuan couldn't do anything to him. He had never seen such a stupid boss.
I had to count the two hundred yuan again and hand it to him, "I won't give you more this time. Boss Mu, please keep it quickly. It won't be good if people see it later."
Mu Chenze suppressed a smile and took the money, "Remember to see a Chinese medicine doctor tomorrow morning."
Without waiting for Chu Xuan's response, he turned and left.
Chu Xuan couldn't help but look at his back. His figure was so good and eye-catching!
After returning to the village, she first went to Liu Zhaodi's house to buy a large wicker basket with handles.
Liu Zhaodi has not returned from her trip to the sea. Only San Leng is at home, and there is only one large wicker basket at home, and the other one is not yet finished.
Chu Xuan gave him a few words, gave him a deposit of two cents, and waited for him to come over tomorrow afternoon to pick up two wicker baskets of the same height and size.
Walking towards home.
As soon as he entered the house, Feng Chunhua's voice sounded behind him.
"Chu Xuan, I came to see you for something."
When Chu Feng heard this, he ran over immediately, with vigilance in his eyes, "Feng Chunhua, we have nothing to do with you anymore, why are you here?"
Chu Xuan looked at Feng Chunhua calmly...
