Li Tong glanced at the vendor not far away, and then said hesitantly, "The peeled fish at that store was returned by a grilled fish fillet maker in the city. The ice cubes had melted on the way back, and a lot of the fish was not fresh. I heard that they were compensated, but the vendor was reluctant to throw it away and planned to find another buyer. However, I have to trouble you to go to that stall to look at the skinned fish and find faults. Otherwise, he will have to yell at me. "
Now Chu Xuan knew what was going on.
In order to avoid scolding, Chu Xuan went back to the vendor and explained, "I just comforted Li Tong in private. After all, he has been the one supplying me. He said that he didn't have that much skinned fish anyway, so no. Do you mind if I buy it from your stall?"
The vendor was very happy, "I know Boss Li is generous! My name is Min San, I'll give you a nickname right away!"
"Wait a minute. Don't worry about weighing. I have to check the quality of the fish first. When I make grilled fish fillets, I must use fresh skinned fish." Chu Xuan lowered his head and looked at the pots of skinned fish, "Why? Stink? Boss, did your skinned fish just land on the shore?"
Min San said stiffly, "Of course we just landed. Isn't it normal for a few fish to die when they leave the sea water?"
"This is not just a few dead ones. Most of them are not fresh. I won't buy them!"
Chu Xuan turned around and left.
Min San was so anxious that he stamped his feet. Only Chu Xuan here could buy skinned fish in large quantities. Now she refused to accept it, so she could only take it home and dry it.
Just forget it?
no.
He had to find a way to sell it.
His eyes fell on Li Tong's stall.
Don’t they only collect skinned fish that have just landed? At the worst possible time, he would find someone to bring these skinned fish to shore again.
If you can't sell it to Chu Xuan, then sell it to Li Tong.
When Li Tong got busy, he didn't have time to check.
He shouted loudly, "I'm looking for a boat to throw these fish back into the sea. Who can help me!"
His good friend's boat had just docked and finished selling its fish. "You can use my boat! But you have to sail it yourself."
Li Tong was a little puzzled, "Take it home and dry it in the sun, and keep it for your family to eat. Wouldn't it save food?"
Min San pretended to be disgusted, "My family never eats peeled and dried fish. If you throw them into the sea, they will definitely attract a large number of fish to eat them. When the time comes, I will cast the net, but I won't be able to catch a big catch."
Li Tong remained silent.
Ten minutes later, 1,500 kilograms of fish were delivered to the boat.
Min San personally sailed the boat to the distance.
Finally found Chu Zhi.
Chu Zhi was sitting leisurely on the boat fishing.
The two hit it off immediately, and after the incident was completed, Min San gave Chu Zhi 10 yuan as a thank you fee.
After all, if all the 1,500 catties of fish are sold, they can be sold for 60 yuan.
Chu Zhi didn't go to sea until after lunch. He could have waited until dark before going ashore.
At around three o'clock in the afternoon, Chu Xuan arrived at the county town carrying 40 kilograms of grilled fish fillets.
First, I went to do business downstairs with the family members of the flour mill. We had made an appointment yesterday.
Easily sold 20 pounds.
She carried the rest downstairs to the family members of the machinery factory and shouted, "Come and buy grilled fish fillets... Grilled fish fillets that cost ten yuan a pound outside the city only cost two yuan and fifteen cents a pound. Come and buy them all!" There’s not much left…”
It quickly attracted many people.
Try before you buy.
I sold another 18 kilograms here and there. I ate one tael in a trial, and there was still one kilogram and nine taels left.
At 5:30 in the afternoon, Chu Xuan saw a familiar figure, Dr. Zhang, an old Chinese doctor who was treating her.
He immediately closed the stall and chased after him, wanting to give less than two kilograms of grilled fish fillets to Dr. Zhang.
Doctor Zhang accepted it and paid for it.
Chu Xuan was a little embarrassed, feeling that he was buying and selling by force.
After chatting, I found out that Dr. Zhang’s niece Zhang Feifei lived here. She was discharged due to a work-related injury and wanted to start a small business. However, she couldn’t walk very well, but she could ride a bicycle.
Chu Xuan suggested that Zhang Feifei buy grilled fish fillets from her house and set up a stall to sell grilled fish fillets.
Doctor Zhang said that he would discuss it with his niece and would reply when Chu Xuan went to get medicine next time.
At around seven o'clock in the evening, Chu Xuan and Niu Widow pulled the cart to Li Tong's stall.
Li Tongzheng sighed.
Chu Xuan stepped forward, "Boss Li, what's going on?"
"I went home to have dinner, but my son collected 1,500 kilograms of smelly skinned fish from me."
Li Tong is a conscientious person and will not sell this pile of smelly fish to Chu Xuan.
Chu Xuan always felt that things were not that simple, "Who sold it to your family?"
"Listen to my son, it's Chu Zhi."
"Tell your family not to accept Chu Zhi's goods from now on. He is nothing. But why is the number 1,500 kilograms so familiar? Where is Min San who sells skinned fish? Chu Zhi cannot be so diligent. "
"Already gone. Could it be that he and Chu Zhi colluded?"
"This matter needs to be investigated. Let's do this. You continue to collect fresh skinned fish until you collect 1,500 kilograms. I will help you recover the loss of the previous batch of smelly fish."
After Chu Xuan finished his instructions, he left quickly.
Go straight to Chu Zhi's house.
"Chu Zhi, come out!"
When Chu Zhi heard Chu Xuan's voice, he immediately felt the fear of being thrown into the tree last time. He hid in the bedroom and refused to go out.
"I'm not going out. If you have anything to say, just say it!"
His parents are not at home right now, he is the only one here, and he is no match for Chu Xuan.
Chu Xuan also guessed that Feng Chunhua was not at home, otherwise she would have jumped out earlier.
"Chu Zhi, I'm only going to say this once, go to Li Tong's stall immediately and take away your 1,500 kilograms of skinned fish!"
"Chu Xuan, why are you nosy? I didn't sell it to you!"
"Li Tong collected it for me! Do you want the whole village to know your secret?"
"I don't want to! I'll find someone to take him away right away. Don't stand outside, go home and wait for news."
"I'll go to the dock and wait for news. If I don't see you within an hour, you'll know!"
Chu Xuan turned and left.
After confirming that she was gone, Chu Zhi walked out of the bedroom and locked the courtyard door.
At this moment, Min San from the next village came over.
"Chu Zhi, where is the money from selling the fish?"
It was he who hired Chu Zhi to sell skinned fish.
Chu Zhi thought carefully, "I haven't gotten the money yet. Li Tong wasn't here just now, but his son was. I was going to get the money. Why don't you come with me?"
"I'll wait for you at the door of your house. Go quickly."
"good."
Chu Zhi hurried to the dock.
After meeting Li Tong, he readily returned the 60 yuan to him, borrowed a cart, hired a strong laborer, and left with 1,500 kilograms of smelly skinned fish.
Li Tong glanced at the money in his hand and then at Chu Xuan. He didn't expect the money to come back so soon.
Li Tong knew how difficult Chu Zhi and his mother were.
From this moment on, Li Tong admired Chu Xuan.
He became even more determined to help Chu Xuan collect fresh skinned fish.
When Min San saw Chu Zhi showing up with 1,500 kilograms of smelly skinned fish, he yelled, "Chu Zhi, what the hell? How do you do your job? Why aren't the fish sold?"
Chu Zhi knew that he was in the wrong, so he didn't respond when he was scolded, and he looked indifferent, "Did you pay me for hiring me? No! Remember to pay this strong laborer two cents for his wages. Min San, hurry up Follow your smelly fish and smoke me to death! Don't come to me for this kind of thing in the future!"
Min San wanted to argue with him, but when he saw Feng Chunhua coming back, he immediately chose to shut up.
If she didn't leave quickly, Feng Chunhua would be able to spread the news everywhere, and she would have to add fuel to the fire and spread rumors.
Calling the strong laborers to pull them away.
Feng Chunhua looked at Min San's back and asked Chu Zhi, "Xiao Zhi, why did that person come to our house?"
Chu Zhi didn't want to mention the embarrassing things to Feng Chunhua, "I came here to sell fish, but I kicked him away. Where is my father? Why did you come back alone?"
"He's staying tonight in the compound he just bought in town."
"Mom, did our family really buy a yard?"
"That is!"
""Are you ready for the gift money for Xiaoli? "
"Ready."
"Mom, where did you get so much money?"
