Between Fishing, Farming, and Mountains and Seas in 1983

Returning to 1983, besides his wife, there is also the sea that makes Liang Ziqiang linger.

Beachcombing is just a beginner's exploration; a light boat entering the sea truly understands ...

Chapter 91: Selling fish, making a lot of money!

Chapter 91: Selling fish, making a lot of money!

"No! Not today!" Chen Xiangbei struggled to get out of his arms.

But the bed was so small, where could I escape to? I had just gotten out a little bit when he came closer again.

"Why not today?" He paused for a moment.

"Today... you are tired from going out to sea! You need to rest and take care of your spirit!"

Oh, he thought that she had some reasons that were inconvenient to speak out, but it turned out that she was considering this.

"I'm not tired, I'm just a little nervous about fishing for grouper, and I really need to relax now!"

"Then I'll relax you!"

Her soft hands came up and rubbed his shoulders and waist.

In fact, his waist was a little tired at first, because he was trying to pry open the chicken claw snail, but now he doesn't feel anything. It's good to be young.

He enjoyed her massage for a while, and soon he grabbed her hand and pulled it into his arms:

"Let me correct you, it's not relaxation, it's release!"

Chen Xiangbei was stung several times on the face by him, and her voice became smaller, like a mosquito singing: "That's not now, wait until midnight, when my parents are asleep..."

Liang Ziqiang paused for a moment, thinking that his wife's concerns were not completely unreasonable.

He was not sure how soundproof the door and walls were.

In a low voice, he told her about the grouper and three-ton fish he caught on the island. Finally, he told her the highlight, the strange-shaped abalone beads he accidentally found in the three-headed abalone.

"Where is it? You make me want to see it!"

"It's in this room."

When Liang Ziqiang came back, he had already rinsed the abalone beads, but since he had nowhere to put them, he put them in the drawer of the bedroom.

This time he got out of bed, took it out from the drawer, and turned on the light again to show her.

"Wow, why are there colored pearls?"

When she saw it, she immediately took it from his hand and looked at it over and over again.

"It's good that it has color. I heard that colored pearls are more valuable than pure white ones. But it's a pity that the shape is irregular and too small. The bigger the pearls, the better!"

"It's okay. The shape is a bit weird, but the color is good and it doesn't look ugly!"

Seeing that his wife seemed to like it, Liang Ziqiang changed his mind:

"Why don't you keep it here? It will definitely look good on you."

Chen Xiangbei immediately put the abalone back into his hand: "No! I just said it's not ugly, but I don't think it's very beautiful. If you sell it, I want to know if it's really valuable. Can it be close to the price of the last time I bought the clam?"

Liang Ziqiang thought about it and realized that this irregular shape really didn't look that good when worn. Women of this era might be more willing to accept three golds. When I make money in the future, I'll buy her some beautifully designed gold jewelry. I heard that some old brands in Hong Kong Island have a great sense of design.

Speaking of the cyprinid, he remembered what Chen Xiangbei had said before he set out in the morning, asking him to be lucky enough to pick up another cyprinid. Although he didn't have any cyprinids now, if he really encountered something as rare as abalone beads...

My wife is quite good at talking. How about asking her to say something like "Eastern star grouper, rat grouper, top-grade two-headed abalone and one-headed abalone" before going out to sea?

The two talked for a while, and Liang Ziqiang put the abalone beads away again, planning to take them to the city tomorrow.

It's completely quiet outside now. My parents and Lizhi should have fallen asleep, right?

Liang Ziqiang was still full of anger! This time he went straight for it. There was no point in talking so much, action was the most important thing.

"No, it's too early!"

"I said it's not too early anymore. If you wait any longer it will be dawn!"

"Well! That time... go to sleep after you're done. Sleep well in the second half of the night and don't toss and turn again!"

Liang Ziqiang was secretly delighted. Hearing this, it seemed that there would be something interesting to do in the second half of the night? As a result, he overslept in the morning and woke up late.

He was the only one in the family still lying in bed. His parents and older brother were all having breakfast. Chen Xiangbei had already finished her porridge and was sitting outside the door with Lizhi, talking about something and laughing.

Chen Xiangbei saw him getting up to brush his teeth. She glanced at him and pointed her mouth towards the table.

"I've prepared the porridge for you and let it cool down there first, you can eat it quickly!"

After that, he started chatting with Lizhi again. He didn't know where they had so much to talk about. He really admired his wife for being able to talk fluently with Lizhi...

Then he glanced at Liang Xiaohai again. He put down his porridge halfway through and actually took a few live shrimps and squatted there to help him feed the turtle.

The turtle has recovered well recently, and he thought it was Liang Lizhi's work. So it seems that Xiao Hai deserves the credit? Xiao Maotuan also came forward to see what the turtle was eating, so Xiao Hai hugged Maotuan.

Holding a small fur ball in his left hand, feeding a turtle with his right hand. In the past, there was nothing much to do, and he was reduced to playing with ants and living with chickens and ducks. Now, he feels like a winner in life, with people on both sides.

"Lizhi, why don't you apply medicine to the big turtle!"

Liang Xiaohai assigned Lizhi in a condescending manner.

Lizhi glanced over with disdain, unmoved.

Liang Xiaohai used his trump card and threatened:

"If you ignore me again, the three of us will ignore you and won't play with you anymore!"

Lizhi snorted.

"Who cares!" She pulled Chen Xiangbei's hand and said, "I already have my second sister-in-law to play with, so I don't want to play with dogs anymore!"

Chen Xiangbei was listening with a smile on her face, but the smile froze in an instant. She was too embarrassed to flip the lychees to the ground in front of the whole family.

Liang Ziqiang couldn't hold back and laughed out loud. As a result, Chen Xiangbei directed all her anger at him, glaring at her and grinding her teeth for a long time.

After Liang Ziqiang finished his porridge, his father stopped him and talked to him for a few words. Then he picked up the seafood he had bought yesterday and prepared to go into the city.

At this moment, Chen Xiangbei had already picked up the Internet cable, sat under the tree and started weaving the net.

Liang Ziqiang walked up to her and took a look, and found that she was weaving a web in a very good way. Although she was not very skilled, she had obviously gotten the hang of it.

He didn't expect that she had said yesterday that she would learn how to weave a web, and she actually learned it in one day.

Chen Xiangbei gave him a few instructions and then went back to weaving the net with Lizhi while chatting and laughing.

Looking at this situation, Liang Ziqiang felt a little more relaxed as he walked on the road.

He was a little worried at first. Chen Xiangbei had just arrived and apart from her feelings for him, she was a stranger to every member of this new family. She was afraid that it would take her a long time to adapt.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

In addition, as a girl who grew up in an orchard, she knew very little about the topics of a fishing village, which made it even easier for her to find topics to talk about, exacerbating her situation of being out of place.

Now the situation is going unexpectedly smoothly. Not only did she quickly learn to weave webs from her mother, but she was also able to have a lot of conversations with her family members.

The person who is most out of tune now seems to be Liang Xiaohai...

Liang Ziqiang quickened his pace and soon reunited with Lin Baixian, and together they carried the seafood into the city again.

They still took the original route and transferred to Yuehai Restaurant. This time, Du Ziteng's eyes lit up when he saw them:

"You two came at the perfect time, as we have just digested the batch of snails and abalone. I was thinking that if you forgot about it, I would find a time to call your village today or tomorrow!"

Liang Ziqiang put down his burden: "I can't forget it. I have kept track of the time. This time, we not only have chicken claw snails and three-headed abalone, but also a lot of grouper that your store needs!"

"Oh? We do need grouper, but we're not that short of blue banderilla. Which one did you get? The same brown band as last time?"

Liang Ziqiang opened the lid of the barrel and let him see it for himself.

Manager Du’s attention was immediately drawn to the grouper and the “Three Cuts”: “Grouper? To be honest, this is in short supply in our hotel.

Not to mention the "Three Cuts", some Hong Kong customers specifically booked this, but we turned them all down. It's not that we don't make money, but the supply of "Three Cuts" is too uncertain, and it's impossible to book. You can only wait until it's in stock on a certain day, and the customer is lucky!

It's a pity, it would be better if you had a few more Eastern Star Grouper and Three Cuts!"

"Well, there's not much to say. Just like you said, it all depends on luck. Sometimes I can't catch a single one even after watching for several days!"

Liang Ziqiang exaggerated the difficulty a bit.

"I know that. Don't worry, I won't let you down with the price. For this Eastern Star Spot, I can give you ten times the price of the ordinary Green Spot, which is 20 yuan per pound! If you cut it three times, it can be more expensive, 25!

It seems you have quite a lot of brown belts this time. The price of brown belts is the same as last time, six dollars; the price of blue belts, as you all know, is two dollars.

Since we were talking about grouper, Liang Ziqiang asked Lin Baixian to bring his honeycomb grouper over to show Manager Du.

Manager Du took a look:

"Honeycomb? This one is definitely not as good as the Eastern Star Spot, but it's better than the Blue Spot and Brown Band. The Brown Band is six pieces, and this Honeycomb can go up to eight pieces!"

Although everyone knew that it would be more expensive than the brown belt, when Lin Baixian heard Manager Du personally say the price of eight dollars, he still smiled from ear to ear, as if he had found a treasure.

Compared to the last time, the large prawns were also a new item this time. Du Ziteng carefully looked at the size and quality of the large prawns: "Ordinary prawns cost more than one yuan, and for a size like yours, I can give you several times the price. Six yuan a pound, is that okay?"

Six yuan was basically in line with the price Liang Ziqiang had imagined on the way here, so he agreed immediately.

After the price was agreed upon, we still went to the warehouse to have Lao Peng weigh the goods, and then put them into different water tanks according to category.

The last time Liang Ziqiang brought a little over 15 jin of chicken claw snails, this time it will be a full 6 jin more, 21 jin and 2 liang.

Eighteen yuan per pound, the price of chicken claw snails alone reached three hundred and eighty-one yuan and sixty cents.

The grouper weighs about two pounds, and one is sold for more than 40 yuan.

The Zhan San Dao is about the same weight, but because it is more expensive, it sells for more than fifty yuan each.

A few brown belts were sold for more than seventy yuan in total.

The blue spots are the most numerous, but they are cheap, selling for about 40 yuan in total.

The total price of prawns is more than 40 yuan.

The number of three-headed abalones was even greater than last time, dozens of them, weighing more than 15 kilograms, and sold at 10 yuan per kilogram, for a total of 152 yuan.

After all the calculations, Liang Ziqiang's total income this time was 782 yuan! Compared with the last time's 460 yuan, it was 320 yuan more!

The most important addition was the various groupers that I successfully caught by bringing a fishing rod with me this time.

Lin Baixian also got a lot more than last time, with a total income of more than 500 yuan. The main difference between him and Liang Ziqiang was that he was not as lucky and did not catch many groupers, especially groupers and brown bands.

After finishing the official business with Yuehai Restaurant, Liang Ziqiang decided to discuss a private transaction with Du Ziteng to see if the strange-shaped abalone bead could bring him some extra income!
