"Everyone is grabbing the boss's vegetables just for the sake of green safety. The fish is sold so expensively and capriciously. I haven't heard the boss say that he raises fish before. Could it be that someone else raises fish and the boss sells them on our behalf?"

"No, I bought it because I trust the boss. I didn't get any vegetables, chickens or ducks, but I finally managed to get two fish."

"After hearing what you said, I want to return the fish in my hand. After all, two hundred yuan a fish is not cheap."

"I want to return it, but the boss won't let me choose the variety."

"Boss, please come out and tell me whether you raised the dog yourself or someone else did."

Xu Qingzhi didn't check her phone. After selling the vegetables, she told her mother and asked her mother to arrange for Aunt Zhou and others to pick the vegetables, and asked her father to hire a few temporary workers to take care of the chickens, ducks and fish.

Aunt Liu, who came to help, heard that more than a hundred ducks were to be killed. She had always envied others who could work regularly at Fuwang Farm and had a fixed salary. The Xu family paid quite a bit of money and did not treat people like donkeys, so she wanted to show off and took the initiative to say, "These ducks have so much feathers that they can be made into down quilts."

Wang Yanmei was a little tempted. After all, down quilts are so expensive. It would be nice if she could make a quilt with the duck feathers at home.

"It is possible to do it, but it is probably very troublesome and no one knows how to do it."

Aunt Liu heard this and said immediately, "I can do it, Yanmei. In the 1990s, I followed the cotton fluffer in the village to make quilts. I can also make down quilts. I make all the quilts in my house myself. If you trust me, I will make it for you. You just need to pay for the cotton cloth."

Wang Yanmei was of course willing, "Okay, then you can add some labor fees later, but the duck feathers must be handled properly, otherwise there will be a smell."

Aunt Liu didn't hesitate to say that she didn't want any labor fees. "Okay, I will definitely take care of it for you. The duck feathers need to be washed clean, steamed a few times, and sterilized in a pressure cooker. It will be guaranteed to be spotless and more comfortable than the down quilts made outside."

One hundred and eighty ducks, when made into down quilts, would weigh about three kilograms.

A long time ago, when people killed ducks, they would not throw away the feathers, as they could be sold for money. The feathers from a duck could be sold for two or three dollars.

Later, no one in the village collected duck feathers, so everyone just threw them away as garbage.

In addition to Aunt Liu, several other people were hired to help with the processing of chickens and ducks, as well as to catch fish. They were all paid 100 yuan a day.

Xu Qingzhi only needed to talk to her parents and she didn't have to worry about anything else. She opened her phone and saw that everyone in the group was talking about fish, so she came out and said something.

"These are fish raised in our own pond. No drugs were used. They grew naturally. The fish are in a blind box and cannot be specified. It is explained in advance on the link. If you mind, you can get a refund. The fish have not been caught yet."

There were immediately some dissatisfied replies from the newbies in the group.

"I've only heard of blind boxes of toys, but I've never heard of buying fish and opening a blind box."

"Isn't that right? The boss has set a precedent for opening a blind box of fish in a window."

As we chatted, the style of the painting gradually became distorted.

"I thought I was just buying two fish to eat, but you suddenly told me it was a blind box. Then I'm not sleepy anymore. I'm really looking forward to what kind of fish I'll get."

"+1, Boss, can I receive it tomorrow?"

"I bought a blind box for 200 yuan, and I can eat it. It's worth it."

Xu Qingzhi didn't look at his phone, but called the courier boss in advance and asked him to send oxygen-injected fresh food express.

That courier company can provide this service.

The pond on the back mountain is not very deep. The deepest part is only deeper than the chest of an adult man.

Xu Qingzhi realized that this was really troublesome. In such a cold day, these people soaking in the water must be uncomfortable. Although he didn't have to work, he was naturally sympathetic and couldn't bear to see them.

If I had known this earlier, I would have waited until the beginning of next spring, when I cleaned the pond, drained all the water, and then sold all the fish.

Xu Qingzhi was picking coriander in the vegetable garden next to her. The two lamb legs that Huo Fengyan sent arrived yesterday, and today her mother wanted to use them to make soup with white radish.

In mutton soup, coriander is the soul and is indispensable.

After a while, Xu Fuqiang walked over here, "Qingzhi."

Xu Qingzhi carried the bamboo basket and looked back at her father, "What?"

"Your brother Zhou Zhou just called me. Doesn't your aunt's family also have a pond? They were planning to clean it out in the spring. Seeing that our family was selling fish today, he asked if he could help sell some of them. So they might as well clean the pond today."

Xu Fuqiang looked bitter, "Qingzhi, look at this..."

Xu Qingzhi nodded: "Of course."

She shook off the dirt from the coriander in her hand and put it in the bamboo basket. "Tomorrow there will be a market in Daji Village. I will go with them."

Xu Fuqiang said: "He wants to sell it on our farm's online store, also for 200 yuan a piece, and give us half of the profit."

"Okay, I'll just call Brother Zhouzhou and tell him it's not possible." Xu Qingzhi said coldly.

The fish she raises are raised in a spiritual energy array and are good for the human body when eaten.

This ordinary fish only costs a dozen or twenty yuan in the market, but you sell it for 200 yuan? You should be conscientious when making money.

Although she has a conscience, she really can't do such a thing. Not to mention making money, the taste of this fish is different, and customers are not stupid, they will know the difference after tasting it.

The good reputation of Fuwang Farm has been built step by step. If one wants to ruin its reputation, it is just a matter of a thought.

Xu Qingzhi took out his cell phone and called Zhou Zhou.

"Hey, Qingzhi, did your uncle tell you about the fish?"

Zhou Zhou's voice came from the receiver of the mobile phone.

Xu Qingzhi said slowly: "My father told me, I don't agree. If you want to sell it online, you can open a store yourself and get all the certificates. This kind of fish needs to be oxygenated and delivered fresh, and the delivery fee is not cheap. Most of the pet fish on the market can afford this delivery. If you sell ordinary fish, you won't make any profit at all, and you will even lose money."

She explained in a nice way.

"I heard from Meimei that you sold fish for 200 yuan each today. They were crucian carp, grass carp, silver carp and the like. I was thinking that I have these fish in my pond as well. If you help me sell them, we can split the money we earn in half." Zhou Zhou said this with a bit of generosity in making concessions.

Xu Qingzhi sighed inwardly, "That's not the case."

"Qingzhi, I know this is difficult for you. I have to go to Meimei's house for the New Year this year, so I still need to have some money in my hand. If you help me sell the fish, I will earn at least tens of thousands of yuan, and I can have a good New Year." Zhou Zhou's tone was even a little humble, and it was not an intimidating tone of asking for help.

Unfortunately, Xu Qingzhi will not compromise on this matter.

She helped her aunt to recover, which was a sign of her family's affection. It was not that she was unwilling to help, but she had to help according to the task. (End of this chapter)
