Chapter 406 Dad is here to help
Everyone had experience last year, so handling bluefin tuna was much smoother and everyone worked together in an orderly manner.
However, so much cargo could not be processed in one day.
Everyone was thinking about coming earlier the next day, but they didn't expect that as soon as they stepped into the yard, their feet were almost buried by the falling seafood.
Shen Dagou swallowed hard and murmured, "This won't do. We have to get A-Zhan and the others here first, otherwise it will take forever!"
The villagers who came to work behind were also frightened.
Yesterday most of the catch was bluefin tuna, mixed in with some miscellaneous fish, crabs, prawns, shrimps, octopus and squid.
Today, more than half are yellow croakers, and the other third are super-large prawns and squids of various sizes, all piled up into small hills. There is also a new wave of bluefin tuna.
The villagers who were working didn't even dare to say a word. They all buried their heads in their work and didn't dare to stop even when their hands were smoking.
The high intensity of the workload forced Su Tai to make use of the open space outside the yard.
In this kind of weather, we can only set up a temporary shed, light a stove, and recruit some people to help.
About five days passed.
The Su Chunlin brothers came over to help and were stunned by the spectacular scene before them.
The gate of the villa was wide open, and the villagers working stretched from the yard to the river. It was estimated that there were hundreds of people.
Su Chunsen's eyes widened. "Oh my god! How big have Chen Yi and Xiao Tai set up their stall? Why are there people everywhere? I'm almost dazzled!"
"That's right! I heard that my son-in-law is still in the county government office. The burden of the family falls on Xiaotai. No! I have to stay and help!"
Su Chunlin said this and hurried onto the bridge.
It hasn't snowed in the past few days, but a thick layer of ice has formed on the surface of the river. As the bridge sways, the ice on the sides cracks.
The wind is strong on the river.
The two of them ran to the other side in one breath.
From a distance, he shouted at the top of his voice, "Xiao Tai! Xiao Tai!"
The Xu family members who were working looked up and immediately stood up to greet them, "Why are you here, my in-laws?"
Su Chunlin looked at the bloody dagger in Xu's hand, swallowed hard, and said dryly: "I heard you guys are very busy, come over and give me a hand!"
"You've come just in time. You can go into the yard and take a look. There are so many fish that you can't kill them all. These past few days, every time I open my eyes and close my eyes, my mind is full of fish. There are so many fish! I don't even dare to look at them again."
Although Xu was complaining, her tone was cheerful.
The Su Chunlin brothers entered the yard and took a look. Wow! It was really dominated by fish. They were dizzy by so many goods. No wonder Xu said that.
Because there were so many fish, they couldn't get in, so they could only ask Xu for help and find something to do outside.
What they didn't know was that at this time Su Tai had quietly entered the water space-time operation again.
All the caught seafood was piled up inside the yard.
The people working there haven't finished cleaning up the seafood in front yet, so naturally they won't notice that new seafood has appeared behind them.
Su Tai kept pushing the seafood at the back to the front, like it was a bottomless pit, no matter how busy she was she could never finish.
The villagers who were working didn't even have time to chat, so naturally they wouldn't notice anything unusual.
Su Tai didn't notice Su Chunlin and Su Chunsen coming until everyone finished work, and she hurried out of the yard.
"Dad, uncle, when did you come here? Why didn't you tell me?"
The Su Chunlin brothers were so tired that they couldn't even straighten their backs and were very depressed.
"We've been here for most of the day! Girl, why didn't you tell us that you were so busy here? Don't you recognize me as your father?" Su Chunlin pretended to be angry, smelled his pickled hands, and tilted his head back in disgust.
Su Tai hurried forward to admit her mistake, "How could that be possible! Dad, I can't deny you even if I don't recognize you! Look, you and my uncle have been tired all day, hurry up and go home with my second uncle and the others to rest, the four children are all at home!"
"What about you? Aren't you going back?" Su Chunlin asked with wide eyes.
Su Tai thought, this is bad! No one except her family knew that she didn't go back, so it's hard to fool them now.
After secretly glancing at Shen Zhuang, she pretended to be calm and said, "Of course I have to go back! But I'm going back to the small courtyard in Dahe Town. Shen Yi used to be a town official here and had a residence. It's only a few steps from there to here. If I go back to Shenjiazhuang, I'll have to waste a lot of time. But there's only one room in that courtyard, and Shen Yi only rests there occasionally, so it can't accommodate too many people.
Dad, uncle and second uncle go back, you all come together tomorrow morning, I will go back after counting the things, and I will make sure I get home before dark."
Chen Zhuang echoed, "That's right. They were like this last year, but with Chen Yi around, Xiao Tai felt much more relaxed. This year, Chen Yi became the county magistrate, and he can no longer be so free."
Su Chunsen, who had been silent the whole time, suggested, "Since Chen Yi has become the county magistrate, it's time for your family to buy a few servants. Not too many, just two or three, one to guard the door and sweep the floor, one to cook and wash clothes, and one to run errands. If you want more people, you can buy a few more. Anyway, you don't need this little money now."
Su Chunlin's eyes lit up instantly, "This is a good idea! Xiaotai, you should think about it carefully. You can't do everything yourself! You are a human, not a god!"
Su Tai nodded helplessly, "Dad, uncle, I will think about it carefully. You are all tired all day, go back and rest first. There are some fresh blue crabs and abalone here. Take them back and steam them. You can also have a drink. It will be enough to get two for the children."
With something to do, the three men's attention was instantly diverted.
Su Tai watched them walk onto the floating bridge. Only when the three of them stopped looking back did she quietly enter the villa and close the door.
Turned around and went to the Fire Time and Space Food Street.
She has had all three meals here these days.
Hot pot, steak, barbecue, spicy hot pot, hamburger, Sichuan, Cantonese and Zhejiang cuisine in turn, as well as the dim sum she brought out specially.
She was completely satisfied with the meal.
After filling her stomach, she went to the water time and space again. Today’s target was sea cucumbers, sea cucumbers, sea cucumbers!
She decided to get a yard full of sea cucumbers. This thing is valuable and priceless, but it is troublesome to handle, which is enough to give Su Chunlin and others a headache for several days.
This way Su Chunlin didn't have time to chase her and ask her questions.
Sure enough, the people who came to work the next day saw that all the sea cucumbers were paralyzed. These things were about the same size as shrimps and looked creepy. They had to deal with them one by one, remove the internal organs and then boil them in water, which was extremely troublesome.
There are so many key points, how long will it take to finish?
Su Chunlin and Su Chunsen did not realize the seriousness of the problem until they started working, knowing what was waiting for them.
The two people who were so busy yesterday continued to work hard today.
In order to ensure the freshness of the sea cucumbers, they dare not stop for a moment.
After noon, Ma Xingteng came to pick up the goods. When he saw the freshly packaged sea cucumbers, he jumped three feet high with excitement.
"Sister-in-law, I won't be polite with you! Count these sea cucumbers, I'll take them all!"
