Chapter 219 It’s Time for Besties to Come on Stage

As soon as Ding Xiaoxiang entered the fish market, there were a lot of people who came to buy fish, shrimps and crabs. The people who surrounded her stall immediately trotted over. Let's put aside tomorrow's business and think of a way later to help call for business.

“The redfish were good today!”

"It's two pounds, not too big or too small! It's the most delicious!"

…

"This big mackerel just arrived at the stall today. Cut as much as you want!"

…

"This is Balang fish! Don't look at the small size and it's all meat!"

…

"You want to buy these prawns, don't you? The boat released the goods in the early morning."

“This one has to be a little more expensive!”

…

Ding Xiaoxiang and Zhang Li kept busy, and the number of fish, shrimps and crabs on the fish stall decreased rapidly.

"ah?"

"Is the business so good today? Why are they all sold out so early?"

Ding Xiaoxiang looked at the clock hanging on the wall, all of them were sold out before nine o'clock, the business of her own fish stall was very good, but usually it took around ten o'clock to be able to sell almost all of them.

"Today's fish, shrimp and crabs are more beautiful, and the price has not risen even if they are bigger."

"They are all regular customers, and I know very well in my heart that I must act quickly."

Zhang Li took a few sips of water, she was really busy just now.

Ding Xiaoxiang took off the gloves on her hands, washed her hands, took her thermos cup, drank a few sips of water, pulled a chair and sat down to rest.

What should I say?

Ding Xiaoxiang remembered Zhao Dahai's appointment with him to go to the city to watch the speedboat tomorrow, and his little head was so painful that he couldn't think of a way.

It’s over!

Did you say you can't go?

But I really want to see what kind of speedboat Zhao Dahai is going to buy!

…

correct!

Zhao Dahai doesn't know how to bargain, so I definitely have to help.

What if you are deceived by others?

Doesn’t it cost more?

This is all hard-earned money!

…

The more Ding Xiaoxiang thought about it, the more she felt that she had to go.

How can you deceive me?

Ding Xiaoxiang looked at Zhang Li sitting opposite her.

"ah?"

"What's the matter?"

Zhang Li was a little strange, Ding Xiaoxiang didn't know what she was thinking just now, and then glanced at herself again.

"I'm wondering if I should call my father to bring more fish and shrimp tomorrow?"

"Business is so good, sell more and make more money."

Ding Xiaoxiang remained calm.

"OK!"

"Go back and talk to your father about this tonight. I think I can sell an extra two hundred pounds tomorrow!"

Zhang Li nodded. The business was really good. She bought more fish, shrimps and crabs to sell and made more money. She never thought that Ding Xiaoxiang and Zhao Dahai made an appointment to go to the city to watch the speedboat tomorrow.

Langtou Village.

Zhao Dahai's tricycle drove into the yard. Grandma Zhong Cuihua was not weaving fishing nets in the main room. When she walked to the back of the house, she saw that she was wandering around the vegetable field with Xiao Naihei.

"ah?"

"The sea."

"Didn't you say you were going to the city today to watch the speedboats?"

Zhong Cuihua came over immediately when she saw Zhao Dahai. If she came back so early, she must not have gone to the city.

"ha!"

"grandmother!"

"I made an appointment with someone who knows how to speedboat. Let's go to the city together tomorrow to have a good look."

Zhao Dahai didn't say anything about Ding Xiaoxiang, and everything went very smoothly, but he didn't say anything about it, so it was of no use.

Zhao Dahai looked at the vegetable garden. The replanted vegetables after the typhoon, such as beans and melons, began to grow, and in half a month there would be enough vegetables to eat.

Zhao Dahai didn’t stay in the vegetable garden all the time. He’s been traveling overseas recently. He didn’t drive his own fishing boat for several days. Today, he has time to go out for a walk. There are some weeds growing in the vegetable garden. Grandma Zhong Cuihua can do it alone. The fishing village The old people inside can work and will keep working. It is not a good thing to eat and drink all day without moving and doing nothing.

The sun was high in the sky and it was very hot.

Zhao Dahai arrived at the pier, got on the fishing boat, cleaned it up, washed the deck with sea water, untied the cable, pulled up the anchor, and headed out. The fishing boat or the diesel engine has to be moved, or it is very easy to break. After turning around, I saw many fishing boats fishing in the inland sea. Several familiar fishing spots were crowded with fishing boats. When passing by reefs and trenches, they stopped deliberately. After a rough count, there were about twenty fishing boats. After watching them for almost twenty minutes, few of them could catch fish.

Zhao Dahai shook his head. There were few fish and few fishing spots in the inland sea, but there were many fishing boats. They all had to make money and support their families. They had to be crowded together. There were too many monks and not enough rice to eat, and no one had enough to eat.

Zhao Dahai felt more and more that the decision to go to the open sea was the right one. There were many fish in the open sea, and you could make money if you worked harder. People with skills had a greater chance of making big money. However, there were few fish, shrimps, and crabs in the inland sea, so all your great abilities would be useless. , There are no fish in the sea, and there is no change.

Zhao Dahai drove a fishing boat to the oyster field in Gangtou Village. There were not as many fishing boats as there were just after the typhoon, but there were still quite a few. After looking around for a while, he found that there were more fish caught here than at other fishing spots he had just seen. It's easier, you can always see a boat catching fish within seven or eight minutes.

Zhao Dahai squinted his eyes and looked up at the sun in the sky. It was still early, and there were fishing rods in the cabin. He took them out and sorted them out. He drove the boat to Ma Tian and bought two bunches of oysters. They came here and started fishing. have a look.

Zhao Dahai took a three-finger-sized oyster, opened the shell with a knife, and hung the hook on the side of the oyster meat. The fishing boat drove to the oyster field, and other places were already occupied by fishing boats. Fishing for oysters Next to the wooden pile in the field, see if there are any fish.

Zhao Dahai tried more than a dozen wooden stakes and only caught a small black sea bream as big as three fingers.

Zhao Dahai shook his head, the weather is calm today, the wooden stakes in the oyster field are not like the seawater slapping on the stakes before the typhoon last time, and the effect is much worse.

Zhao Dahai thought about it, and decided to try it out, whether he could catch a few fish on the side of the oyster string, the black bream in the oyster field eats oysters, and the side of the string of oysters, It is possible to have fish.

Zhao Dahai took a knife, reopened a sea oyster, hung it on the hook, and put it down along the edge of a string of sea oysters, waited for three or four minutes, and changed another string of sea oysters without moving.

Zhao Dahai tried for about ten minutes, and changed seven or eight strings of sea oysters. This time, the tip of the pole shook a few times just after one minute of putting it down.

"coming."

Zhao Dahai raised the pole to stab the fish, the line was immediately tightened, the hooked fish burrowed into the oyster field, immediately turned the spinning wheel to reel up the line and pulled it out, a black bream with the size of a palm was pulled out of the water.

Zhao Dahai didn't use the net to fly the fish directly onto the boat, he unhooked it and threw it into the live cabin. The black bream of this size is already very good, especially the one grown in the sea oyster field is very fat and delicious.

Zhao Dahai seized the time to open another sea oyster and immediately put it down in the same position. No matter where the black snappers are in groups, there must be more around if you catch one. If you don’t hurry up, the fish will disperse. open.

"here we go again!"

Zhao Dahai just put the oyster on the hook into the sea, and just sank less than half a meter. He watched a black sea bream rush out of the water, biting the oyster and dragging it away. , another one.

Zhao Dahai fished for about an hour at a stretch before he lost his fish. He changed several places and fished for about two hours more, but he couldn't find any fish.

Zhao Dahai shook his head. He thought it was normal when he didn’t go out to sea, but after a few trips to the sea, he really couldn’t stand the feeling of fish in front of him. Some time ago, he was able to make a lot of money fishing in the inland sea. It’s really lucky It's incredible.

Zhao Dahai looked at the living room, and found that there were more than a dozen black breams of about seven or eight ounces. Today is not fishing to make money, and the fish soup at night is not enough to eat. It is almost time, so he collected the fishing rods and drove the fishing boat back to Langtou Village. .

Zhao Dahai parked the fishing boat and cleaned it up, cleaned the deck of the fishing boat, took a net bag and packed the fish, it was not for sale, it was taken back to eat and there was no need to support it.

When Zhao Dahai came home, the rice was cooked, he immediately killed the fish, cleaned it, heated the pot, put a little oil in the fish, and fried the fish for a while, then put the water to cook the soup, the water turned into milky white, light yellow oil after a while. The stars floated up, put a little salt on it, put it in a big bowl and took it out.

"grandmother!"

"time to eat!"

Zhao Dahai walked to the main room with a large bowl of fish soup, put it on the table, and filled it with rice. Even though there was only fish soup, it was extravagant. He let himself cook a dozen or so black breams, worth three Four hundred yuan.

"What are you cooking so much for?"

Zhong Cuihua felt a little heartbroken.

"ha!"

"grandmother!"

“It’s not like we eat it every day!”

"The key is that we don't lack this little money now. It's no problem to have a good meal every once in a while."

Zhao Dahai took a plate with the largest black sea bream in the soup and placed it in front of Zhong Cuihua, so that it was convenient to eat.

"OK!"

"that's right."

"We really don't need this little money. We can afford such a meal."

Zhong Cuihua laughed. A few months ago, she would have been reluctant to eat it, but it was different now. Zhao Dahai had really made money.

Zhao Dahai drank a bowl of soup, it was fresh and sweet, he pursed his mouth, his lips were stained, he picked up a fish and took a bite, the fish was smooth and tender, especially in places with rich food like oyster fields The black sea bream is really plump. For the same size, the price is one-quarter to one-third higher than elsewhere, which is not unreasonable.

After eating, Zhao Dahai took a good night's sleep, got up at three or four in the afternoon, took the lamp he bought last time to illuminate the squid and cuttlefish, got on the boat and installed it, and returned home after dinner to board the fishing boat I went out to sea, didn’t run far, it looked like two nautical miles, I found a place with deep water and stopped, turned on the light, for three hours, I didn’t wait for the hairtail I wanted, I was a little disappointed, there was no way, what kind of fish, shrimps and crabs there were in the sea I decided for myself No, pack up your things, go back to the pier, take a shower and go to bed as soon as you get home.

Dashi Village.

Ding Xiaoxiang went out to Yang Qin's house after dinner.

Yang Qin had just eaten and was very surprised when he saw Ding Xiaoxiang and didn't know what was going on.

Ding Xiaoxiang winked and pulled Yang Qin into the room.

"What happened?"

"Today is not Monday!"

Yang Qin was at a loss.

"Come to the city with me tomorrow."

Ding Xiaoxiang got straight to the point.

"ah?"

"What is this for? Why did you go to the city?"

Yang Qin was taken aback.

Ding Xiaoxiang thought about it all day, if she wanted to go to the city, she would definitely need Yang Qin's help, and Yang Qin had to go with her, so her mother Zhang Li could agree.

"ah?"

"No way?"

"Have you made an appointment to see the speedboats in the city?"

Yang Qin was a little dumbfounded, she didn't expect this to be the case.

"What happened?"

"I'm going to help you find a price for something worth hundreds of thousands. What's wrong with it?"

Ding Xiaoxiang is confident.

"Hee hee hee!"

"You haven't married yet! You just want to help save money?"

Yang Qin made a joke.

Ding Xiaoxiang blushed, glared at Yang Qin fiercely, did not answer the question, and directly asked if she wanted help.

"OK!"

"Help, just help!"

"I'll have something delicious to eat at noon. Also, remember that you owe me a huge favor. If I need your help with anything in the future, don't refuse."

Yang Qin's eyes rolled around a few times. He had always wanted to know who had captured Ding Xiaoxiang's soul. This was a good opportunity.

How could Ding Xiaoxiang not know what Yang Qin had in mind? He must have wanted to see Zhao Dahai. There was nothing he could do about this trip. Without Yang Qin, he would definitely not be able to go to the city.

Ding Xiaoxiang and Yang Qin discussed and decided to go to the county to find some colleagues to go shopping and buy some clothes. They couldn't go to the city. It was too far and they might disagree.

Ding Xiaoxiang and Yang Qin went to meet Yang Qin's mother. They agreed immediately and then returned to their home together.

"OK!"

"You guys go and have some fun!"

Zhang Li agreed immediately without saying a word. The business of the fish stall is quite busy, so I am a little tired by myself, but I can still cope with it. Ding Xiaoxiang could not stay at the stall to help out 365 days a year.

"Ding Xiaoxiang."

"It's settled, I'll come find you at seven or eight tomorrow, and we'll go to the town together and then take the bus to the county seat!"

After Yang Qin finished speaking, he turned around and walked out.

"OK!"

"See you tomorrow!"

Ding Xiaoxiang nodded, feeling very happy. She didn't expect things to go so smoothly. The method she came up with was really useful. My mother didn't say anything and agreed immediately.

"Give!"

"Buy some nice clothes!"

Zhang Li watched Yang Qin leave, went back to her room, took 500 yuan, and handed it to Ding Xiaoxiang.

"mom!"

"I have money!"

Ding Xiaoxiang shook her head.

"Take it if it's given to you! You'll definitely need to eat and drink when you go out to play with your classmates, so bring more."

Zhang Li put the money directly into Ding Xiaoxiang's hand, turned around and left.

"whee"

"I wonder if I will go crazy if I know that I used her money to see Zhao Dahai!"

Ding Xiaoxiang felt a little funny in her heart. She really thought that she and Yang Qin and her classmates were going shopping. She went back to her room, went to bed early, and immediately fell asleep as soon as she lay down. She was very much looking forward to watching the speedboat with Zhao Dahai tomorrow.
