Chapter 155 Zhang Li and Ding Xiaoxiang’s Battle of Wits
Zhao Dahai drove the fishing boat and slowly approached the dock. Liu Bin happened to be on the dock, took the cable from the bow and tied it, and parked the fishing boat. Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang got on the dock and drove first. They caught too many fish. It is too strenuous to carry.
"How was your fishing today?"
Liu Bin was a little curious.
Zhao Dahai pointed to the refrigerator on his fishing boat and then to the live cabin, both places were fully filled.
Liu Bin gave a thumbs up, no matter what kind of fish, it is not easy to catch so many, Zhao Dahai, the boss of the boat, is a good leader.
Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang drove two large off-road vehicles to the small dock. The trunks of the vehicles were opened and each contained two large refrigerators. One was used to hold live fish and the other was used to hold chilled food. People who like fishing are always in the car. equipment.
Zhao Dahai began to work, first filling the live fish, then filling the refrigerator with seawater, and fishing for fish with a net. The fish caught by Xu Yuanjiang had its tail cut off, and it was very easy to distinguish. He picked it out and put it in the live fish tank of Xu Yuanjiang's car, and put it on ice. The fresh fish has the same sign, and the rest are all Wu Weimin's fish. Today's fish were all taken away, Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang took them back to share among their friends.
Liu Bin helped, and it didn't take much time to install them all.
"Two people catch so many fish in one day? Shouldn't they be exhausted?"
"Ha! Now my arm is starting to hurt. It's hard to say whether I can lift it up tomorrow."
…
"Where can you catch so many fish?"
"The sea is so wide and there is no sign. How do you know where it is? Let's go with the boss of the boat!"
…
"There were dozens of fishing boats in one area. Few of them caught fish. They watched the two of us pulling wildly. At this moment, I really felt that I was the center of attention."
"Don't believe it? You look like you, you have been fishing for many years. You must know that when fishing for sea bass, you have to float the boat on the right line and the water layer to catch the fish. Only when you float on the right line and fish the water layer, you can catch the fish. Boss of the boat Whether you are awesome or not, you can see it at this time."
…
When Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang first got on the dock, no one paid attention to them. Two off-road vehicles drove over and started loading fish. Immediately, several people gathered around them. After a while, more than a dozen people crowded together.
"The sea."
"The road is about to open!"
Liu Bin helped to load the fish, and the people around Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang knew that they were all fishermen, and the fish they caught were living advertisements.
"Um."
"It's the right time to come back today! It just so happens that there are people going fishing at the pier."
Zhao Dahai nodded. The people who go fishing at the pier are divided into two groups, one is fishing during the day, and the other is fishing at night. The people surrounding Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang are those who are preparing for night fishing. When they see so many fish caught, they It is a very good thing for me to be sure to watch and ask which ship boss it is.
Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang stayed at the pier for an hour before driving away. It was rare to catch so many fish, so they had to show off well and help Zhao Dahai publicize it.
Zhao Dahai sent Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang away, returned to the fishing boat to tidy up, washed them with seawater before returning home.
The fifteenth moon is sixteen round.
Zhao Dahai stood at the door of the yard, holding a large bowl filled with rice, pork belly, salted fish and vegetables. He had been hungry for a day, so he ate it in his mouth. Today's fishing trip was very successful.
When Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang left, they were asked to increase the boat fare, but they refused directly. When they took guests out to fish, the boat fare was already set. They would not refund if they caught more fish or less fish, so they couldn't break the rules.
When the fishing boat is being cleaned, people come to ask from time to time if they can take it out for night fishing. Also directly refused. Now I am not familiar with the fishing spots of night fishing and the sea conditions of night fishing, so I cannot do this kind of thing.
Wanting to make money is not a shameful thing, it is fair and aboveboard, but you have to be clear about what kind of money can be made and what kind of money cannot be made. If you don’t have such a big head, don’t wear such a big hat. If you don’t have this ability, you absolutely can’t take on such a job. .
Zhao Dahai took the last bite of food from the bowl into his mouth and burped with satisfaction. Next, he mainly went out to sea to fish by himself, to find out more spots or places where fish could be caught, and to make money while taking guests out to sea for fishing. After spending two years slowly accumulating the preparations, I can make a lot of money just by taking guests out for fishing. If I buy a larger speedboat and travel further, and take more people with me, I will earn even more.
Zhao Dahai took a bath and went to bed. After a tiring day, he lay down and fell asleep immediately. She won't go to sea tomorrow. Grandma Zhong Cuihua said that the workers who repaired the house will come to work tomorrow, and she has to watch and greet them at home.
ten o'clock in the morning.
The morning market at the fish market in the town is basically over, and the number of people is gradually decreasing.
Ding Xiaoxiang took off the gloves on her hands, washed her hands, and sat on a chair to rest and drink water. Business has been very good these days. She started to be busy at five or six o'clock, and she was a little tired.
Ding Xiaoxiang looked at the stall next door. She didn't sell much in the morning. It was packed full and motionless. She was a little proud. Don't look at the stall next to her own, but the business was much worse than her own. Her mother was so sharp-tongued. The fish sold are all collected by Dad’s Wharf. The cost price is low, and there is a lot of room for bargaining when selling. Don’t expect that you can lose 10 or 20 cents per pound. This will make a big difference in the psychology of people who buy fish.
Ding Xiaoxiang knew that my mother had always wanted to merge this shop with her own, but she had been unable to reach an agreement. However, it seemed that this situation would not last long.
Why! ?
Zhao Dahai hasn't come for several days!
Ding Xiaoxiang was a little bored and remembered that Zhao Dahai hadn't come to sell fish for several days.
Did you not go to sea?
Are you busy with other things?
Still no fish?
I'm not thinking about Zhao Dahai.
I just want my little breasts to be dark! If he doesn't come, I can't see Xiao Nai Hei, right?
I don't know what it looks like!
I really want to see it!
Ding Xiaoxiang thought more and more, and became more and more distracted.
Zhang Li approached the stall quietly and glanced at Ding Xiaoxiang. She was lost in thought, frowning and smiling at times, not knowing what she was thinking.
"Ding Xiaoxiang!"
Zhang Li waited for a while, but Ding Xiaoxiang didn't see her at all, so she got angry and yelled.
Ding Xiaoxiang was so frightened that she almost threw the water glass in her hand. When she looked up, Zhang Li came.
"mom!"
"What are you doing? You scared me to death and you don't have a daughter!"
Ding Xiaoxiang felt a little guilty. She was thinking about Zhao Dahai just now, so she immediately complained to cover up her
"snort!"
"I've been here for ten minutes! I don't know what I'm thinking about and I haven't seen it yet."
Zhang Li walked into the stall, pulled up a chair and sat down.
"correct!"
"Why haven't I seen you collecting fish in the past few days?"
Zhang Xian took a few sips of water and thought about what she had just seen Ding Xiaoxiang in a daze. As someone who had been there, she knew exactly what was going on. She couldn't help but pretended not to care and opened her mouth to test.
Ding Xiaoxiang's heart skipped a beat, and the alarm bell rang. To be courteous for nothing was to commit adultery or theft. She had never asked about this before, so it was definitely wrong to ask her now.
Huh?
Why did you come to the stall at this time?
It's just a little after eleven o'clock now, doesn't it usually come after twelve o'clock or even one o'clock?
Could it be that he had been hiding somewhere just now to see if Zhao Dahai came to sell fish?
Ding Xiaoxiang's little heart beat a little fast.
I once told Zhao Dahai that I could come over after eleven o'clock in the morning and before twelve o'clock. If I really came here today, I would most likely run into him.
"ah?"
"What kind of fish are you collecting?"
Ding Xiaoxiang reacted very quickly and pretended to be confused.
"Didn't you receive some fish from time to time a few days ago? Why haven't you seen them in the past few days?"
“Those fish are really good!”
"He made a lot of money!"
Zhang Li looked at Ding Xiaoxiang, her reaction seemed to be that she really didn't know what she was talking about, but her daughter was so clever that she really couldn't tell what was going on.
"oh?!"
"Is this what you're talking about?"
"Didn't you say that the price I received was relatively high? Later, he actually came to sell fish to us one time. I lowered the price, but the man was angry and stopped selling."
"correct!"
"I haven't been here since then, probably because I think our prices here are too low."
"They were all sold to others!"
Ding Xiaoxiang patted her head lightly, with a look of sudden realization.
Zhang Li didn't know what to say, she did say that Ding Xiaoxiang's purchase price was too high.
Ding Xiaoxiang was secretly proud, her reaction was so fast that she directly blocked the old lady's mouth.
"correct!"
"Didn't I tell you a few days ago that someone caught a stubble sea bass?"
"Four people caught it, about 2,000 catties, and sold it for more than 100,000 yuan. Each person can earn 30,000 to 40,000 yuan."
"The current sea bass is almost the price of cabbage, but only ten or twenty yuan per catty!"
…
"Why!"
"When I went to Liu Gang's to sell fish two days ago, I saw someone catch two huge green spots."
"The small one weighs fifty or sixty pounds, and the big one is estimated to weigh seventy or eighty pounds."
"These two fish can be sold for almost 40,000 yuan!"
…
When Zhang Li's plan failed, she made another plan. While talking about Zhao Dahai, she observed Ding Xiaoxiang's reaction. She was very disappointed. There was no special reaction on Ding Xiaoxiang's face.
Could it be that this little girl is not familiar with Zhao Dahai?
Haven't seen each other recently? If they had actually met, how could they not know these things?
Wasn't it Zhao Dahai who came to sell fish some time ago? If it is really Zhao Dahai, why hasn't he been here these days? This guy seems to have pretty good fishing skills, so there's no way he's going to be without fish.
Could it be that if you don’t tell me, you really guessed wrong?
Zhang Li frowned, wondering if she was thinking too much. She had finished her business at the morning market in the past few days. She left as usual, but then turned back before she could go far and hid in an invisible place waiting to see Zhao Dahai. Did you come? I haven't seen anyone for five or six days. I couldn't help but test it out today. Ding Xiaoxiang had no reaction.
Ding Xiaoxiang is 100% sure that something is wrong with her mother. She must think that the fish seller is Zhao Dahai. She and Zhao Dahai often meet, especially these days, she might be waiting for Zhao Dahai to come to her in some corner. Fortunately, these days she is really The only thing is that he didn't come, otherwise, he would definitely not be able to escape.
This is trouble!
If Zhao Dahai comes, he must come to me at the time he said last time. Doesn't this mean that I can catch him right away?
what to do?
The more Ding Xiaoxiang thought about it, the more anxious she became. There was no way out. It was impossible to go to Langtou Village to find Zhao Dahai, right?
