Back to the 80s: Pretending to Be in Debt to Escape Misery

In this story of daily life during the 80s, the once fat and ugly Chu Xuan is reborn in a small fishing village in 1983. In this life, she doesn't want to cause Mu Chenze's family to be rui...

Chapter 297 Chu Dashan’s Plan

After saying that, Chu Xuan's gaze fell on the bag of fruit in Chu Dashan's arms.

Chu Dashan quickly protected the bag of fruit. "I've already sold the fruit to you, you can't take it back."

Chu Xuan rubbed his temples. "I definitely don't want to come back. Tell me why you can't go to work tomorrow!"

Chu Dashan chuckled, "Because I want to take advantage of the few days before the New Year to live in the city for a few days and sell some things for money. After the New Year, I will report to the village factory. Then I will work hard."

Chu Xuan looked puzzled. "Selling things for money? Didn't you just get your dividends?"

“These are not enough for me to spend.”

"What are you going to give me in exchange?"

Chu Dashan deliberately lowered his voice. "These are some valuable things I hid from Feng Chunhua before. I'm going to the city to ask about the market. If the price is right, I want to sell them. I originally wanted to wait a few years, but by then Feng Chunhua will be released. If she finds out, we'll be in trouble. It's better to get the money now."

Chu Xuan hadn't expected Chu Dashan to have this trick up his sleeve. "You trust me so much? You actually told me this?"

Chu Dashan said in a very low voice, "To tell you the truth, Ji Ping knows about this and he promised to keep it a secret for me, but I know that sooner or later he will tell you and Chen Ze, so it's better for me to tell it myself."

Chu Xuan pointed to the main hall and said, "Let's go back inside and continue."

Chu Dashan immediately did as he was told, returned to the main room and sat at the table.

"If I sell those things, I'll have a lot of money and can come to your house often to buy food."

"Just to have good meals regularly?"

"Really. I'm not lying to you. I'm not like Chu Zhi, who gambles whenever he has some money. When I have money, I just want to eat."

"It's more than just eating, right? I think you want to find another wife."

Chu Dashan waved his hands repeatedly, "I'm not looking for a wife! A widow named Qiu almost killed me. If I hadn't been able to prove that I was infertile, I would have been arrested this time. Women are the most vicious! I did like to provoke women in the past, and I was greedy. But from now on, I will only be greedy and not touch women anymore. Of all the women who followed me, which one didn't want my money?"

Chu Xuan just listened to this and didn't believe it at all.

In his previous life, with Feng Chunhua supervising him, Chu Dashan had many women.

With no one supervising him in this life, Chu Dashan will find even more women.

I spend all the money I have on women.

Chu Xuan thought about having to support Chu Dashan in the future, and immediately came up with an idea. "How about this! You go to the city to inquire about the price first. Don't rush to sell it. I'll ask my mom to help find out the price abroad. If someone abroad offers a higher price, I'll ask my mom to sell it to you."

Chu Xuan has the final say on how much the sale price will be and how much to give to Chu Dashan.

Chu Xuan saved the deducted money and would use it to support Chu Dashan in the future.

Of course Chu Dashan wanted to sell it at a high price.

"Okay, I'll listen to you. Tomorrow I'll go to the city just to inquire about the price, I won't sell it. By the way, can I go to the city with the truck you hired tomorrow? I'll pay ten dollars."

"You'll have to ask my eldest brother and his wife. They're not home right now and won't be back until tomorrow morning."

"Then what time should I come over tomorrow to ask?"

"Around nine in the morning!"

"Okay. Let's go!"

Chu Dashan left with the bag of fruit.

Mu Qinlao was responsible for locking the door.

Qin Mahua walked into the main room and talked to Chu Xuan.

"Xiao Xuan, I just heard a few words. Does Chu Dashan really have something valuable?"

Chu Xuan smiled calmly, "Whether it's worth money or not, we'll know when he brings it over tomorrow."

Qin Mahua said what she thought, "I hope he has money. That way, you and Chen Ze will have less pressure to support him."

"Then we have to find a way to get some of his money. We'll save it for him."

"With his money-obsessed appearance, how could he possibly let us save money for him?"

"I've figured out a way."

"If you say there's a way, then there definitely is. Go to bed early. You have to get up early tomorrow to continue working on the New Year's Eve. Only when you get enough sleep will you have the energy to work."

"Okay. Mom, you and Dad should get some rest too!"

"good."

Mu Qinlao just came over and Qin Mahua called him to go back to the house to rest.

Chu Xuan washed up and went back to the room to rest.

Lie on the kang, close your eyes and think about things.

Where is Chen Ze now?

It must be very cold at sea, right?

After a while, Chu Xuan fell asleep.

In the early morning, Mu Chenze and Wang Chenyang accompanied Gao Zhenbang on sea fishing.

Gao Zhenbang was not satisfied with catching a few sea bass of thirty or forty centimeters.

"I'm hoping to catch a giant grouper. There aren't any in this area. I know a place where, after a day's boat ride, you have a 90% chance of catching one. Let's go over there and try our luck!"

Mu Chenze and Wang Chenyang looked at each other. It would take about a day to sail, two or three days to go back and forth, plus the time spent on sea fishing after arriving, which would take about four days.

If we encounter some weather problems again, we may not be able to go back for more than a week.

They don't want to spend the New Year at sea.

We have to find a way to help Boss Gao catch the big fish.

Mu Chenze spoke first, "Boss Gao, although there are no giant groupers in this sea area, there are giant flounders. This fish has the effects of removing rheumatism, promoting blood circulation and unblocking meridians. It is also rich in protein, vitamins A, D, B6, etc., as well as calcium, phosphorus and potassium..."

Boss Gao was excited. "Okay! Then let's continue fishing here! You guys must have a way for me to catch flounder, right?"

Wang Chenyang spoke at the right moment, "We do have a way, but now isn't the best time to fish for giant flounder. If you don't catch one within an hour, I'll have to trouble you to wait until after 10 a.m. to try sea fishing again."

"No problem. If I don't catch anything within an hour, I'll go back to the cabin and sleep."

With Boss Gao's guarantee, Mu Chenze and Wang Chenyang took out the bait they had prepared in advance.

It is made with the shellfish that flounder loves to eat as the main ingredient.

Since the meat of shellfish does not stick to the hook, it needs to be dehydrated with salt before processing.

Fortunately, Mu Chenze and Wang Chenyang are both good at this.

After putting bait on Boss Gao's fishhook, Boss Gao cast it out himself.

While waiting, Mu Chenze and Wang Chenyang each took a fishing rod and fished.

Mu Chenze caught a sea bass the size of a palm.

An hour passed quickly, and Boss Gao failed to catch any giant flounder. He only caught sardines, stripers and the like.

Wang Chenyang quickly tried to smooth things over. "After ten o'clock in the morning, you'll definitely be able to catch flounder. Boss Gao, please go back to the cabin and rest! Only when you're well rested can you catch the big ones."

Boss Gao was a little disappointed, "Okay!"

I handed the fishing rod to Wang Chenyang and returned to the cabin...

At nine o'clock in the morning, Chu Dashan knocked on the gate of the Mu family with a bulging bundle in his arms.

Qin Mahua in the kitchen shouted outside, "The door is unlocked, just push it open and come in!"

Chu Dashan replied, "Okay."

Push the door into the yard.

Walking to the door of the kitchen, "I'm looking for Xiaoxuan. I want to show her something."

Qin Mahua pointed to the backyard and said, "I'm drying fish in the backyard. I'll be here soon. Go to the main room and wait. There are melon seeds and peanuts on the table. Eat them first."

When he heard that there was food, Chu Dashan immediately ran into the main room.
