Chapter 85 Going to Town to Sell Fish

Look at this face, as thick as the corner of the city wall, it can't be penetrated.

With such a shout, a few people really came. They looked at the fish in the bucket and nodded.

"It's really fresh. Is your fish bitter?"

An old lady was carrying a basket with a piece of tofu and a few celery in it.

Bai Yunxi looked at her and said with a smile,

"It's not bitter. Buy our fish and I'll teach you how to clean it. It's not fishy or bitter at all. Fry it with lard and stew it with tofu. It's delicious."

Looking at the people who gathered around, Bai Yunxi smiled and told everyone how to eat several kinds of fish again.

"Crucian carp stewed soup nourishes people, carp braised meat is delicious, grass carp fried and stewed, they are all delicious."

"Really? Then help me clean one out, just right to go home and stew tofu." The old lady pointed to a fish and asked someone to fish it out for her.

"Hey~,"

Bai Anyi took the net bag, fished out the fish, showed it to the old lady, then picked up the fish, knocked it on the ground, and put it on the scale.

"Auntie, you have good eyesight, it's one jin high, look."

The old lady looked at the scale, Bai Yunxi took it to the side, fortunately she brought an extra basin.

The fish scales were scraped off, the internal organs were cleaned, the gills were removed, and a knife was cut on both sides of the fish's spine to pull out the white tendons on both sides.

"Okay, I'll do this to clean it in the future, and I guarantee that the fish will not be fishy or bitter."

The old lady looked at her neat technique and nodded, "You are quite honest, you even teach people how to clean it when selling fish."

"Everyone eats fish for freshness and deliciousness. If I don't know how to clean it and affect the taste, I won't be happy to sell this fish?"

Rich people only eat the fattest and tenderest part of fish, so there is naturally no fishy or bitter. Farmers eat fish, many of them are reluctant to throw it away, which affects the taste.

The old lady gave the money and left with the fish.

An old lady opened a shop, and the others also bought a few fish, and asked Bai Yunxi to pack them before taking them away.

The old man selling vegetables next to them looked at the mother and son and sighed, "You mother and son are really good at doing business. You should come earlier tomorrow."

Bai Yunxi nodded, "You are right, we didn't think it through."

She should fish in the afternoon and come to sell it the next morning, just in time for the market to be crowded.

Bai Anyi looked at the empty market,

"Mom, my son knows a waiter in a restaurant. It's dinner time now. Let's go and ask if they accept fish."

"Okay, let's go and ask, and then give him two cents as a thank you fee."

The two packed up, pushed the cart, and turned around to the corner gate of a restaurant. Bai Yunxi looked at the cart and asked Xiao Si to run to find someone.

About a quarter of an hour later, the corner door opened, and Bai Anyi ran out first, "Mom, this is Manager Du from the restaurant, he said he wanted to see our fish."

"Thank you for your hard work, Manager Du. Our fish were all caught this morning, they are very fresh."

Manager Du glanced at Bai Yunxi, nodded, and took out the fish with a fish basket to see that they were indeed alive.

"The fish in our restaurant are delivered at a fixed time, and I was annoyed by Shunzi's begging, so I came to see. The fish are indeed fresh. How are you going to sell them?"

Bai Yunxi listened to Manager Du's tone, but didn't care,

"To be honest with Manager Du, we came late today, and the market was scattered before we sold a few. The market price is eight cents per catty. Manager Du is busy, so I won't say much, seven cents per catty is fine."

This man is obviously in charge of purchasing, and he should know more about the prices than her.
