59 years after its opening, people are still in Nanluoguxiang.
Chapter 609: Am I the only one working hard to make money?
"Brother, then I'm going to sell fish?" Chen Hao said a little embarrassedly.
He thought he should take it back for his family to eat.
But the eldest brother was right. There were enough fish in his fish bucket, enough for them to eat for several days.
Chen Feng was a little displeased with his second brother's shyness. A man should be straightforward and decisive. Worrying too much may not be a good thing.
"Go sell it if I tell you to. If you don't want to, you can follow Fatty's example and take it home."
Fatty Wang shook his head vigorously: "No, big brother, I want to sell it too. I'll sell half of it. It will be enough for my family to keep three fish. My mother hasn't finished the meat you gave her last time."
"Okay, let's all go inside. Why are you standing in the middle of the road?" Chen Feng said unhappily.
Chen Hao took the lead and ran into the supply and marketing cooperative, followed by several teenagers who were happily following behind him.
Chen Feng carried the fish bucket and walked under the eaves to shelter from the rain.
Within a few minutes, their cheers were heard.
The price Guo Chunhua offered was not low, equivalent to five times the official price, which was almost the same as the black market price.
官方市场上,草鱼每斤0.27元;鲤鱼每斤0.23元;白鲢每斤0.155元;花鲢每斤0.19元;鲫鱼市场最高价(活)(六两以上),每斤0.37元。
A fish can cost as little as a few cents or as much as more than one dollar.
Adding up several of them would only cost a few dollars, which was great news for these poor kids.
When they came out, they hid the newly earned money in their trouser pockets one by one. They couldn't hide the smiles on their faces, looking like they said "I'm rich".
"We've agreed that no one is allowed to tell others about the money we make from selling fish, or where we fish." Fatty Wang said as he counted the small change.
"Who said that a son born without an anus?" Jiang Hongjun said this "idiom" as soon as he opened his mouth.
"He doesn't even have a wife, let alone a son. If anyone tells anyone, I curse him to be beaten a hundred times by his parents when he goes back home!"
"It would be better to say that he was beaten to death by his parents!"
They started competing with each other in beating.
Chen Feng took a look and saw that several of them kept one big one and several small ones, and sold most of them.
Guo Chunhua was calling people at the supply and marketing cooperative to inform them that there were live fish.
"Have you told Aunt Guo to keep it a secret?"
"Forehead!"
A group of people looked at each other, and then Fatty Wang ran in first.
"Aunt!"
After Guo Chunhua had contacted the relatives and family members of the important figures who lived nearby and had access to telephones at home, she also promised not to tell anyone.
When Chen Hao came out, Chen Feng was too lazy to wait and had already gone home with the fish bucket.
"Come here quickly, your clothes are wet!"
Zhou Qing was sitting under the eaves of the left wing. When he saw Chen Feng coming in, he quickly went to the bedroom to find dry clothes for him.
Chen Feng went to the kitchen first and handed the fish to the old lady.
"Grandma, this braised carp should have fish roe in its belly, which is just right for Lily to nourish her brain."
He put the turtle into the space. The previous wild turtles were not kept, so this one was just the right replacement. When he found a few more later, he could turn them from wild turtles into farmed turtles.
But he didn't notice that the female turtle started giving birth shortly after it drank some well water.
A few turtle eggs, the legendary turtle eggs, were born.
"Xiao Feng, the dry clothes are on the bed, you should change them quickly." Zhou Qing came in and said.
"Mom, I still have to go to the restaurant." Chen Feng poured the fish bucket filled with densely packed carp, crucian carp, etc. into a water tank in the kitchen.
This thing was used to pickle cabbage in winter!
The Chen family had eaten all the pickled cabbage, so the water tank was empty. It was originally placed in the warehouse, but later the warehouse was converted into a swimming pool, so it was moved to the kitchen.
"Why go to a restaurant?" Zhou Qing didn't understand for a moment.
The old lady understood what Chen Feng meant and said, "Zheng Erniu and his friends must want live fish. The teachers at the drama academy also like to eat fresh fish."
Zhou Qing was stunned for a moment and asked, "Why didn't you go to the restaurant first and then come back?"
The old lady said helplessly: "If we went to the restaurant first, would Zheng Erniu still let him bring back so many live fish? If there are too many live fish, the favor will be less valuable. The fewer the better, the more valuable it will be."
Zhou Qing suddenly realized!
The old lady smiled and shook her head, thinking that her daughter-in-law was too heartless and was not even as good as a child.
But that's also a good thing.
She had seen many scheming mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law, and it often turned out that they were too scheming, which made the family restless.
This was also the reason why she agreed when her son wanted to marry Zhou Qing.
The Chen family is already very smart and doesn’t need any smart people.
Chen Feng took the fish bucket out and filled the pool with water. Then he turned into the kitchen and poured the water into the water tank to prevent the live fish from dying.
I also secretly put some well water into the water tank to ensure that the fish would survive until cooking.
I picked out a crucian carp weighing about one pound and a carp and put them in the fish bucket, then filled it with some water after going out.
"Grandma, I'll be back soon."
"it is good!"
I rode my bike out and passed by Chen Hao and a few others in front of the supply and marketing cooperative.
A group of teenagers who were given a little money are collectively eating popsicles under the eaves!
Oh, Jiang Hongjun also bought a bottle of soda!
"Big brother!"
Chen Feng glanced at them and ordered, "Go back early. Don't wait until the fish dies before eating it. It will be stale."
"understood!"
When they arrived at the Changqing Restaurant, their own tricycle was parked under the eaves outside the restaurant. Four girls, Chen Li, Zhang Haixing, Zhu Lin and Zhu Zhu, who were happily eating ice cream inside, stood at the door, looking at Chen Feng outside.
Wow, the younger brother is eating a popsicle and the younger sister is eating ice cream!
Are you the only one working hard to make money?
No, I must go to Wangfujing later and buy a bucket of ice cream to reward myself!
"Cauldron!"
When Chen Li saw him, she happily ran forward with a paper cup in her hand.
"Big pot, eat ice cream!"
Chen Feng shook his head and looked at Zhang Haixing.
"You're not going to buy it at Wangfujing, are you?"
Zhang Haixing said calmly: "If you want to eat, go over there and buy a few cups."
"Didn't you buy one for us?" Chen Feng came in angrily and handed the fish bucket to Zheng Erniu who was watching the show.
Zhang Haixing was a little embarrassed and said, "Okay, I'll bring it to you next time."
She actually bought four extra cups, but accidentally ran into Zhu Lin and the other three...so she simply shared the remaining cup with Chen Li.
