Chapter 466 Sweet Fish

Lin Xiuqing's face was so angry that she puffed up, but seeing him laughing, she felt a little unbearable, so she also laughed.

"Hurry up and get to work. After collecting these goods, you still have to sort out the floor cages, and you will have to sort them out later. There is still a lot to do."

"Well, how many children are there?"

"I don't know where I went wild. The ground is still wet everywhere. Maybe I was playing at someone's house next door?"

"Go and call them all over to help with the work. After a summer vacation, some of them have lost their minds. Let them do more work and calm down, so they don't have to spend the whole day digging into other people's homes."

"Okay, I'll run back and shout."

Ye Yaodong fiddled with the basket she had just picked. There were quite a lot of small sugar shrimps in it. It was the breeding season. These sugar shrimps had seeds of various colors on their abdomens, ranging from red to purple.

He randomly picked a few and threw them into other empty buckets, then went back to collect the cages.

Before he could collect the net, he heard the voices of "I'm coming, I'm coming, wait for me" coming from all directions.

"Wow, I can finally play at the beach."

"Third uncle, are we going to have another big fight today?"

"What are we going to catch, or what are we going to pick up?"

Everyone was eager to get into the water now. As soon as they ran to the beach, they kicked off their slippers and threw them aside.

Ye Yaodong turned to look at them speechlessly, "Put your shoes on for me. I asked you to help, not to play. Please help me pick out the goods on the cart."

"ah?"

"Why don't we get some goods?"

"Everyone else is picking up stranded seafood on the beach..."

"It's someone else, didn't you see that I was closing the net? Your third aunt is too busy, so you can help her sort it out. The tide has just receded a little now, so there is nothing to pick up. When the tide recedes tomorrow, I will do it again. Bring you here."

"Oh well……"

"Be more positive. The canned food and noodles and cakes in the morning were not for nothing. There are also canned food and biscuits from yesterday... Damn it, you guys ate a lot of stuff from me." Ye Yaodong glared, "Hurry up and give me some work." , otherwise I won’t help you hide your private money tomorrow.”

"We're here to help."

Everyone immediately became active again, and they all gathered around the bamboo basket. However, there were too many people, and it was a bit inconvenient to surround them. Some people could not reach them.

Ye Yaodong took everything off the cart and helped them pour all the goods in the baskets onto the cart, so that they could gather around both sides of the cart for easy picking, and it would also be easier for him to collect and dump the goods.

This ground cage net was really wise and trouble-free. After being thrown into the sea for about a day and a half, a lot of goods were recovered.

Each net picked up about a scallop weighing about five to six pounds, and other miscellaneous fish, shrimps and crabs were also swept in by the waves. There was more stock than what was released offshore in the past.

But there was nothing he could do, the waves were still big, and it was impossible for him to sail out and release the net now.

After collecting a row of ground cages, as soon as the last net was poured out, Lin Xiuqing caught two sea cucumbers with quick eyes and hands. She beamed with joy and shouted excitedly: "A Dong, there are two sea cucumbers!"

Ye Yaodong was also very happy, "This net was so big that we actually caught two sea cucumbers."

"Well, hurry up and continue collecting. These children can pick things up pretty quickly."

He glanced at the piles of scallops piled high on the trolley and was very satisfied. The row of cages contained about 60 kilograms, and after removing some of the shells and scallops, it should be about 50 kilograms.

Some villagers on the shore who were picking up leaks looked at adults and children gathered around them. Ye Yaodong was closing the net there again. From time to time, people came over to take a look and say a few words.

Everyone is very envious.

"You guys have collected a lot of goods. The whole family has joined the battle..."

"There are also a lot of fish, shrimps and crabs... these can be sold for a lot of money..."

"You are so smart, you actually put down the cage early..."

"How many nets have been collected to collect this much?"

"There are so many nets in the sea, and you can sell them for a lot of money..."

"I heard that you delivered the goods to the market yesterday and sold them at a good price. I heard that they cost more than 30 cents per kilogram... The dock is so evil, they actually charge 20 cents..."

Ye Yaodong was closing the net, and there were so many people coming and going. He always responded with a smile and a smile. People knew that he was busy. They looked at him for a few times and then left. Some of them were just too many. He stayed for a while and said a few more words.

But if someone actually said this now, he would have to refute it.

"Not all of them are more than 30 cents. There are also many in the market who are more than 20 cents. It's just because we picked them cleanly and didn't mix them randomly, so the price can be higher. The price at Ah Cai's place is pretty fair. I'll wait. These goods will also be sent to him."

"Uh...hehe~ I see, there are more than two cents in the market, right?"

"Sure, you get what you pay for..."

The man said a few words and left, feeling that he was asking for trouble. Ye Yaodong pursed his lips.

Don't tell me, I will send it over later, I have to discuss the price with Ah Cai, and sell him a favor by the way.

After he collected two rows one after another, his father and second brother arrived belatedly.

"I came over at noon and wanted to ask you when you planned to collect the floor cages, but Ah Qing said you were sleeping. How much have you collected?"

"Half of it, there are two more rows, it's quick to collect them once."

"How many scallops have been collected?" Father Ye said as he walked towards the cart. When he got closer, he saw that there were already piles of scallops on the cart like a mountain. It looked like there were quite a few, including some fish, shrimps and crabs.

"You only have two rows? You actually collected so much from two rows? It must be a hundred catties."

"Is it more than a hundred kilograms? I can't weigh it now. I'll take it back later, sort it out, and send it to the dock."

"Send it to the dock?" Ye Yaohua couldn't help but say, "Aren't you going to send it to the city again? How high is the price in the city?"

"Second brother, are you kidding? If I collect them all, it will only be 200 kilograms at best. Wouldn't I lose money if I send this amount to the city? There are also stall fees for the round trip, it's a lot of trouble."

"Ah, yes, yes... I didn't think about it. Just thinking that you would sell it at a high price at night, it's not worth a trip to the city to order such goods. It's too much trouble." Ye Yaohua smiled awkwardly.

Father Ye said helplessly: "Last night, I specifically asked you and the boss if you wanted to go? You said that the queue was already half full, so we didn't bother. Forget it, let's not talk about it. I'll come across some good things or quantities next time. If there are more, we will send them to the city."

"Why!"

Father Ye smiled and changed the subject: "You guys are really hardworking today, and you even came here to help."

"The mouth of eating people is soft, and the hands of holding people are short. We ate the canned food given by our third uncle in the morning, and we had to help him work in the afternoon." Ye Chenghai said honestly.

"You are aware! It seems that I did not feed you in vain."

"Selling popsicles~ Selling popsicles~"

Suddenly, there was a sound of people selling popsicles around the door of their house, and the sound of the waves was ringing in their ears. It was not very clear, but as long as they were selling food, how could their children's ears not be clear?

Each one's eyes were brighter than the stars in the sky, and they were shouting repeatedly: "Popsicles! The popsicle seller is here..."

"The popsicle seller is here..."

Immediately, one by one called daddy, mother called mother, grandpa called grandpa, looking at them with extremely longing eyes, their purpose was self-evident.

Of course, Father Ye was the first to pay. He counted the heads, gave each person five cents, and asked them to buy popsicles first. Then he went to Ye Yaodong to help him collect the cage.

Ye Yaohua is the same, he has already come here, of course he helps to collect it, and he is also curious, how much goods can be collected by Dongzi's four rows of cages?

He felt more and more that Dongzi's brain was particularly good after he became diligent. He felt that he seemed to be particularly lucky now. He succeeded in whatever he did and everything seemed to go smoothly.

I was also thinking in my mind, maybe I could listen to him more in the future, or he could follow whatever he was doing and see if he could get lucky?

For example, when I went to the city this time, I really regretted missing it. I wish I had followed up yesterday.

I wonder if he would have the idea to follow in his footsteps if he knew that Ye Yaodong had bought a shop in the wholesale market?

Ye Yaohua thought as he closed the net. When a net was closed, he saw that there seemed to be two different fish in it.

He came up to take a look and was instantly surprised, "Dad, Dongzi, there are two sweet fish here."

The two of them were holding the nets in their hands, and they didn't have time to go over and take a look. They could only shout to him and ask him to put them up first, and they quickly pulled up the nets in their hands first.

After Ye Yaohua pulled up the net, he lifted it to the side of the cart, untied the fish bag and poured out the goods.

I saw two long, narrow and somewhat flat fish slipping out of it. The back of the body was blue-black with a little yellow in parts, the belly was silvery white, and the fins were all pale yellow.

Lin Xiuqing curiously caught the fish in her hand, "What kind of fish is this? I haven't seen it before... Eh, it seems to smell a bit good?"

Ye Yaohua smiled so hard that he couldn't see his teeth, and grabbed another one, "This is sweet fish, a fish with its own scent. In ancient times, it was a tribute."

"Really?" She sniffed it again in surprise, "It seems to smell quite good, the subtle fragrance is magical."

Ye Yaodong and Ye's father also happened to collect a net and ran over at this time.

"It's really sweet fish. I smell it...it's quite fragrant...it feels like watermelon..."

"What does it smell like watermelon?"

As soon as the children headed by Ye Chenghai heard the smell of watermelon, they quickly ran over with popsicles in hand and licked them a few more times.

】

"What does it smell like watermelon..."

"Why do you have such smart ears?" Ye Yaodong said angrily.

"It's necessary. What watermelon flavor are you talking about?"

No one paid any attention to him.

Father Ye also took it in his hand and smelled it, "It's a pity, there are only two of them, and they don't add up to half a catty."

"It would be nice to be able to sell it for money."

"Put it in a bucket first, and then send it to the dock together to ask how much these two sweet fish are worth?"

"Second brother is very lucky. I just collected a net, and there are two sweet fish in yours."

Ye Yaohua smiled naively, "It's already in there, no matter who pulls it, it's the same."

"That's not necessarily the case."

Seeing that these children were still poking around, Ye Yaodong imitated the adults who sniffed, and patted two of their heads nearby.

"Eat quickly, and work while you eat. You didn't do much work, but you kept eating."

"If you want the cows to run away, you have to let them eat grass!"

"There are quite a few people who know how to do it. They talk about the same thing, so be careful of them disappearing at night."

"No way."

After Ye Yaodong said a few words, he ignored them and continued to collect the nets. There were not many left, so he quickly finished collecting them.
