Chapter 85 Mussels
To say that he was completely relaxed and natural in front of such a high-quality person of the opposite sex?
That's not the case. When faced with beautiful things, ordinary people are always prone to delusions or inferiority complex.
But Shi Qingqing was a married woman, and at most he would just look at her as a star, which was not enough to make him lose his composure.
Boss Wang didn't expect that after not seeing each other for a few months, Shi Qingqing had started a seafood business and had her own boat.
Now I can still find him through my connections.
"I did set up a breeding site downstream, with seven or eight workers taking care of it. But there is no shortage of markets for mussels this season. If you're in a hurry..."
This is preparing to raise the price.
He is indeed a businessman.
Before, seeing that Shi Qingqing was a woman who could barely spare a few hundred dollars, he casually agreed to his friend's inquiry and found a broken boat to get rid of her.
Now that he saw that Shi Qingqing was well-dressed and had a boat, he thought it would be profitable, so his attitude towards her was obviously different from before.
Speaking of business, Shi Qingqing said she wanted to check the quality.
Since the other party has already given her a price warning, it is only natural for her to inspect the goods. Not only should she inspect the goods, but she should also conduct a random inspection.
Boss Wang said that they should go there together and have lunch. "Mr. Wu, you want to come with us?"
Young Master Wu had no objection. His eyes were very polite from beginning to end. It was just basic social etiquette to meet people's gaze when listening to them speak.
Shi Qingqing happened to have a boat and would pass by here on her way back, so Boss Wang didn't have to bother driving a car.
Mr. Wu from the port city also boarded the ship.
The first thing he said after getting on the boat was to praise the two people for keeping the boat very clean and without any fishy smell.
In fact, apart from loving to tidy up, Shi Qingqing rarely carries fish on her boat. The stagnant water in the small compartments where live fish are stored is also cleaned regularly, so there is naturally no strange smell.
Guo Yumei acted as if someone was praising her. She shyly moved a small stool for the two to sit on, and then went to boil water on the small stove.
After busying herself for a while, she came to ask Shi Qingqing if she still had the peanut candy that she had eaten last time.
Shi Qingqing sighed.
It's only been about a month since she was devastated and hated all the heartless men in the world, and now she's thinking about it again?
Forget it, it’s someone else’s private matter. As long as she doesn’t really affect me, this partner can still be used.
After arriving at Boss Wang’s small breeding site, two workers came over, originally wanting to drive away the strange boat, but turned out to be their boss.
For a moment, I saw the combination of two men and two women, and their eyes looked a little strange.
Shi Qingqing said directly: "Boss Wang, is it convenient for us to check the quality of the mussels now?"
A businesslike attitude calmed the two men's wandering eyes a little.
What? Is this a female boss here to do business?
Boss Wang was not stupid. When he saw the man who was smiling on the boat now spoke in a louder voice, he immediately cooperated and introduced the two men as Boss Shi, who came here to buy mussels from the farm.
The two men immediately led the way with a smile, and casually pulled up a hanging rope, which was covered with mussels.
Then he picked up a few more ropes, all of which were similar in size.
Their shells are long, triangular in shape with rounded edges, so they won’t scratch your hands as easily as oysters.
Next comes the tasting session.
Fresh mussels can be eaten after being washed and cooked in water.
After the mussels are cooked, their adductor muscles relax and the shells open. With a slight prying motion, the milky white and slightly yellowish shell meat is revealed to everyone without reservation.
It is delicious enough when eaten in its original flavor, and it is even more palatable with the addition of seasonings.
Shi Qingqing tasted it briefly and was very satisfied with the quality. Oysters have never been graded, so I wonder if this can be tested.
Anyway, she likes it very much.
As for the other dishes on the table, they were all commonly found in fishermen's homes. Shi Qingqing didn't come here to eat, so she agreed on the price with Boss Wang at the table.
Shi Qingqing did not bargain too much, so Boss Wang did a good thing and asked the people currently at the breeding site to take action and pick up all the mussels that could be sold.
Shi Qingqing said that it would be fine to just send a whole bunch over.
Two hours later, Boss Wang gave the amount of three thousand seven hundred yuan.
Shi Qingqing really lost all the money she had earned with great difficulty.
Except for the one thousand yuan that was kept at home, she took out all the money she had with her in the small warehouse.
I was planning to install a phone next month.
Now I don’t know if I can still go according to the plan.
After the mussels were loaded, the two bosses were not suitable to continue to go back together on the boat with the mussels.
Boss Wang said cheerfully, "It was fine when we came here, but we have to take bus 11 back home."
Eleven Road, 11 refers to two legs.
In fact, if two bosses wanted to take a bus back, they could just make a phone call. It was just a matter of shaking his sense of humor.
After the payment and goods were settled, Shi Qingqing hurried back to "shell" the food.
After the fake you said "go slowly, don't say goodbye", the ship went farther and farther away.
Shi Qingqing sat down, found a few huge, sturdy plastic bags, opened them, and began using tools to prepare for shelling.
As a result, as soon as I grabbed a big mussel, Haihuo Mall reminded me that one point could be used to automatically shell the mussel if it was one hundred kilograms.
After completing the novice tasks, shelling is free.
It turns out that if you don’t complete this task, you won’t get this benefit.
Success, thirty-seven points, Shi Qingqing can afford it!
People can endure hardships in helpless circumstances and encourage themselves with the spirit of hard work and perseverance.
But people should not seek hardship when they have the conditions to do so; that is called forcing themselves to endure hardship when there is no condition.
Times have changed, and Shi Qingqing's conditions are different.
Once upon a time, a warehouse overweight storage fee of 0.1 points made her feel distressed, but now she doesn’t even bat an eyelid at 37 points.
Since she didn't have to do the hard work herself, Shi Qingqing simply dropped her tools. With a clang, Guo Yumei came back to her senses.
She was hiding something in her heart, and when she was frightened like this, she actually cried out: "Ah!"
Shi Qingqing was frightened by her and looked up at Guo Yumei in confusion.
"What’s wrong with you?"
"No, it's okay. You want to dig out this meat? I'll get started right away."
Shi Qingqing stopped her and gave her another task: to pick out a bucket of larger ones, preferably the biggest ones.
She wanted to save some food for Zhao Fengnian.
As for why Guo Yumei was asked to do this, she felt that if some people were not forced to do their work, a lot of bad things would probably grow in their minds.
On the return trip, before the boat even reached the shore, Guo Yumei had already scooped out a bucket of extremely large mussels.
Shi Qingqing asked her to go ashore and go home first, and she herself was going to the food stall to deliver the goods.
Before going out today, she made some preparations at home and even rehearsed the trip, including how to say hello, how to shake hands naturally, how to smile appropriately without being exaggerated and looking experienced in business.
Now that she had dealt with everyone, she had to find a place to deliver the goods and also see where to get some cash flow back.
Guo Yumei got off the boat in a daze, and only came to her senses when she saw the boat going away. She was not going to a rich hotel this time. It was just some mussels, so she was probably only taken to a small restaurant, and they didn't even take her there.
"I performed so badly." Guo Yumei stood at the door of her house and suddenly came to her senses.
She covered her face in annoyance, remembering how she had been as reserved as a young wife on a blind date at the dinner table.
Just recalling my performance was so embarrassing.
That Mr. Wu, he doesn’t think he is a frivolous person, does he?
