Chapter 60 Establishment (Part 1)
"Look, that woman is back."
"Hahaha, I thought we'd get a lot out of these few days, but this boat looks empty."
"Then why is she going out alone?"
Shi Qingqing did not feel embarrassed by the voices of the idlers.
If she would be broken down by a few harmless sarcasm, she would have died of high blood pressure long ago.
If a girl from a poor family is a little pretty, she will definitely become the topic of conversation among some people, especially when she reaches marriageable age.
Of course, she did not choose the Chen family who had good financial conditions, but chose an outsider who was a bricklayer. Naturally, this made her already high popularity even more popular.
It’s not that she has a bad temper, but after the dream, she suddenly felt that there is no need to respond to some things with anger.
Shi Qingqing not only did not avoid those people's gazes, but smiled calmly: "My boat is indeed empty. After all, I didn't really go out to catch fish."
ah?
Then why are you going out?
"I go to collect fish. I supply high-end restaurants and earn a living. Apart from collecting some good-looking seafood, the rest of the fish I catch are considered extra income."
"Ah? The price of seafood is there. The restaurant's labor fee can pay for renting a boat and gas..."
Shi Qingqing didn't give a direct answer, but only said, "They sell a crab to customers for 188 yuan."
"What!" A vagrant almost fell off the boat. "One hundred and eighty-eight for a crab? Is it the deep-sea king crab?"
"No, it's the orchid crab, the blue crab... the one you're talking about, they sell for over a thousand."
Hearing this, everyone jumped up immediately and gathered around Shi Qingqing.
As disrespectful as he had mocked her before, so attentive was her attitude now.
Each one of them was either asking how much the labor fee was or asking her the price of the fish and crabs.
"How much are you charging for grouper, grouper?" From late autumn to spring, grouper hibernates in deep-water reef caves, and it is very difficult to catch grouper. The less there are of these fish, the higher the price will naturally be.
But who would object to a higher price?
All of a sudden, various types of seafood with reasonable prices were reported one after another.
"How much is the big yellow croaker?"
"The dog shrimp my family caught last time was very sweet, delicious and fresh!" Dog shrimp is a common offshore shrimp in January. In some places, it is also called pistol shrimp or gaba shrimp.
Shi Qingqing held the bucket in her arms and asked everyone to move aside. "That restaurant's requirements are too high, and the quantity is not needed in large quantities. Instead of selling me eight or ten at a time, why not continue to cooperate with your original customers?
I've been busy for two days, so I'm going to go back and rest. You guys go ahead and do your work."
Several people were reluctant to give up this channel that could earn more money just by listening to it, but Shi Qingqing had already impatiently turned away from everyone and went home. Several people looked at each other.
Not long after, word spread that Shi Qingqing had a channel to buy seafood at high prices.
Shi Qingqing didn't mean to be high-profile.
The reason for this is two-fold.
First, she found out that she was not cut out for fishing. At least for now, the tools she had were all left on the boat by Mr. Qi, and the facilities on the boat were not as good as those of other families who made a living by fishing.
Instead of fighting to the death, it is better to collect high-quality seafood and redeem points until you really master fishing.
Second, she came to live in a seaside fishing village alone. Although she is also a local and speaks the same dialect, she is from the same village. If she offends a villager, there is no one to help her, which would be a hidden danger.
But if she had such a channel, the nature of the matter would be different. Even if she was not a seafood merchant who purchased seafood in large quantities, her status would change from someone who came here to make a living and grab resources to a seafood merchant.
There is no need to say who is more important between Party A and Party B.
She didn't want to suppress others, but she just needed to raise her own value.
Shi Qingqing yawned and thought, forget it. Although she usually liked to think about things, and even because of her childhood experiences she always thought about how to avoid venting anger and scolding, it didn’t mean that it was a pleasant feeling to think all the time.
After returning home, I threw away the bucket, closed the door, and immediately boiled water to wash my hair and take a bath.
After taking a shower, she tried hard to dry her hair with a dry cloth, and then opened the mall. She wanted to buy some small tools.
I don't need a big one, but at least it should be convenient to use underwater and on the beach.
You can add two plastic buckets.
Buy two fish baskets as spares.
There are several styles of laowang in the mall, but none of them are on sale. Shi Qingqing selected the two that she liked and marked them together.
At the final settlement, one third of the points redeemed in the past few days had been used.
Huade Shiqing was grinning, but he also had to tell himself that this is called sharpening the tools before doing something well.
Just as she was about to exit the mall, Shi Qingqing exclaimed.
"The original price of rice is 9.9 points, but now it's on sale for 3.8 points per pound. This is like rice falling from the sky." She had previously seen a type of rice on sale for only a few tenths of a point per pound.
This special price is still 3.8 points per kilogram.
"How about trying it?" Shi Qingqing ordered three pounds with trembling hands.
After that, I never dared to look at the mall category list again.
After returning home, Shi Qingqing washed her hair and took a bath comfortably, and fell asleep quite quickly.
The next day, Shi Qingqing washed a cup of rice and cooked some porridge.
As soon as the water boiled, a strong aroma of rice spread out.
You can clearly hear Shi Qingqing drying clothes on the second floor.
She ran down and took two deep puffs.
Just by smelling this aroma, you can feel how sweet this rice is and how full of the most original flavor of grains it is.
She opened a packet of Little White Rabbit pickled mustard tubers and fried an egg. She had already made other preparations for breakfast.
When the slightly thick porridge was ready, there was movement outside the door.
What's going on.
Who comes to someone else's house at breakfast time.
Wait, because she had the freedom to sleep, it was already past eight when she got up. It took her time to dry clothes, wash rice, cook vegetables and porridge...
It's almost ten o'clock now.
It seems that most families, especially those in the village, have breakfast after six o'clock.
She stood up and went to the door.
Shi Qingqing's wall is not high. People outside can see the yard, and she can also see outside.
It turned out to be Guo Yumei. She came back from Xu Wenjie?
There was a woman following Guo Yumei, who seemed to be Guo Yumei's elder.
There was another couple and a child with them.
In broad daylight, Shi Qingqing saw that they were still holding things in their hands, and she knew that it was the ritual of a home visit.
As soon as the door opened, before Shi Qingqing could say anything, Guo Yumei said in a familiar voice, "It smells so good. Are you having breakfast? Or preparing lunch?"
"Oh, it's breakfast. I got up late today." As soon as Shi Qingqing said this, the couple felt a little embarrassed.
No matter what time people get up, it's such a coincidence that you come when they haven't eaten yet.
