Chapter 146 Tired and have opinions
Zhou Guohua was confused. Wen Wan's words made some sense, but he couldn't wrap his mind around them. He scratched his hair, thought for a while, and said, "No, even if I rent the sea area, I don't know how to raise fish!"
Why rent it?
Wen Wan urged: "If you don't know how to raise fish, you can learn. Sell the fish quickly. I will talk to your father about this!"
This should be done sooner rather than later.
She didn't know whether Zhou Chenglei had thought of renting a sea area to raise fish. If he had, she calculated that today and tomorrow should be Zhou Chenglei's turn to go out to sea. He didn't have time to rent the sea, so if he had thought of it, he would have to wait until the day after tomorrow to rent it.
They must rent it before Zhou Chenglei goes to rent it.
Wen Wan wanted to follow the same path Zhou Chenglei took in his previous life, leaving him with no way to go.
He couldn't become the richest man, and Jiang Xia's wishful thinking of becoming the richest man's wife became a fantasy! After Wen Wan told Zhou Bingqiang about this, Zhou Bingqiang hesitated.
Renting the sea to raise fish? He had never thought about it.
The sea is so big, and there are so many fish. Both fish and shrimp are very fertile. A fish can have hundreds or thousands of roe in its lifetime. Why do we need to raise fish? Wen Wan: "Uncle, I dreamed that Zhou Chenglei made a fortune by raising fish and became the richest man in the future."
Zhou Bingqiang: “…”
This is the weak spot of Zhou Bingqiang.
Now he thinks he is the richest man in the village, how can he tolerate that in the future he is not the richest man, but Zhou Yongfu's son becomes the richest man?
"Which sea area did he rent in your dream?"
Wen Wan knew that Zhou Chenglei had rented several pieces of sea in his previous life, not only the area near the village, but also in other coastal cities.
She knew that he later set up a pearl farm in another city, which grew bigger and bigger and made a lot of money!
The same goes for the abalone farm. In her previous life, so many people came to his abalone farm to wholesale abalone. She had seen the grand scene of truckloads of fresh abalone being transported away in the city.
The abalone farm is in the sea area around the city. If she guessed correctly, it should be the sea area of the island where she picked up the red coral.
I don't know about the pearl farm, but Wen Wan heard that he first tried to grow pearls in the area of their village.
Wen Wan had dreamed that Zhou Chenglei picked up a pearl shell before, but she had never seen where he picked it up.
But Wen Wan still suspected that it was the isolated island where she first went to sea.
Wen Wan expressed her guess.
"This is just my guess, uncle. If you think a certain area of the sea is suitable for raising fish or abalone, you can rent it. My family doesn't have a boat, and our village is a little far from the sea. I'm not as familiar with the sea as you who go out to sea all year round."
"I know where the two islands you mentioned are. I'll go to the production team tomorrow to ask how to rent them."
Wen Wan: "Uncle, where are the dried fish? Do you want to buy them?"
"Yes! Why not? But first we need to find out how much Zhou Yongfu charges per pound before we accept it."
The shortcut to success is to follow the way others have succeeded.
Since she dreamed that Zhou Chenglei started to make his fortune and became the richest man in this way, he naturally wanted to give it a try.
Zhou Bingqiang now believes very much in Wen Wan’s dream.
She was right about what time the typhoon would come.
She was also right that Zhou Chenglei would pick up the red coral!
So Zhou Bingqiang believed it very much.
Wen Wan has such a powerful ability, and Zhou Bingqiang also sees that she is ambitious. He is afraid that his youngest son will not be able to keep her in the future.
It seems that I have to go talk to Father Wen about their marriage.
*** Zhou Chenglei returned home and saw the fishing nets piled up in the yard. The village store didn't sell this kind of "family-destroying net" with small mesh. He looked at Jiang Xia and asked, "Did you buy it in town?"
Jiang Xia nodded: "Well, you want to make cages, I also want to make snacks. When I have time in the afternoon, I will go and buy things that may be used."
Zhou Chenglei: "Did you go there by bicycle?"
"What else?"
Zhou Chenglei said, "Just wait for me to buy it next time."
She rode a bicycle alone to buy so many things, and he was worried that her riding skills were not good enough and she would fall.
"Aren't you busy going out to sea? It doesn't matter who buys it!" Jiang Xia replied, and reached into the basket of miscellaneous fish to grab the ugly fish that looked like a stone: "What kind of fish is this? Are you eating it tonight?"
Zhou Chenglei quickly held her hand: "Don't touch it! The bones on the back of this fish are poisonous, but they are delicious. I will take care of it."
Stonefish is the most poisonous fish, but it is also a delicacy known since ancient times. The meat is very tender and nutritious. It can promote the production of body fluids and moisten the lungs, beautify the skin, warm the middle and replenish the body, and treat muscle and bone pain.
Zhou Chenglei brought it back specially for Jiang Xia and his parents to eat, as he thought Jiang Xia had never eaten it before.
He put on gloves to handle the fish.
Jiang Xia ignored it and went to clean the basket of small fish and miscellaneous fish first.
There are a lot of these small fish in the sea these days, but many fishermen will not specifically catch them because the price is not high.
6◇9◇Book◇Bar
Zhou Chenglei couldn't name it either, everyone just called it "little fish, little fish", but he knew that there was a kind of small fish in the sea area of the neighboring province during the flood season in October, and there were a lot of them in the sea. When the big ships came back, he could sail out and catch some.
After Jiang Xia washed the fish, he put it aside to drain and dealt with it after dinner.
It was soon time for dinner. After the family finished their meal, someone brought over some dried fish and small miscellaneous fish.
The Zhou family members began to busy themselves with weighing and collecting the dried fish and fish.
Zhou Chenglei and Jiang Xia are in one group, Li Xiuxian and her husband are in one group, and Zhou's father and mother are in one group.
One person weighs and one person counts.
Dried miscellaneous fish are very cheap because they are fish that cannot be sold or are sold at such a low price that it is better not to sell them.
Jiang Xia listened to Zhou's father's advice and thought about it, and decided to charge everyone one yuan per catty. This was the price to sell in the city. If they sold in the town, they could only sell for six or seven cents per catty, which would be difficult to sell.
But the bus fare to the city is more than one yuan, so unless you happen to have other things to sell in the city, no one is willing to go to the city to sell dried fish. If you have that time, you can earn the money by going out to sea to catch a net of fish.
Jiangxia sells fresh small fish at 1 cent per pound, and the villagers are very satisfied with this price.
That night, we collected 300 kilograms of dried fish and more than 100 kilograms of fresh small fish.
After collecting the fish, the family is busy processing the fresh fish and drying them overnight.
Father Zhou goes to bed early because he has been out at sea all day and will have to go out to sea again tomorrow. As he is old, he cannot endure as well as the young people.
It was already one o'clock when Zhou Chenglei, Jiang Xia, Zhou's mother, and Zhou Chengsen and his wife went to bed.
Li Xiuxian returned to the room with a dark face and felt extremely tired. She had never felt so tired before!
She said unhappily, "Go home early tomorrow morning!"
Zhou Chengsen: "I see. I have to go to work tomorrow. Can I not reply?"
Li Xiuxian pounded her waist and said, "I'm so tired! Why should I, a teacher, do this?"
Zhou Chengsen sneered after hearing this: "You can't stand it? Going out to sea to make money by fishing is so tiring. Otherwise, do you think the money my parents used to buy us a house came from sitting at home with strong winds? And part of it was sent back by Alei, who also earned it with his life. It will only be more difficult than going out to sea!"
"You live in a new house in town. When you feel comfortable, you should also think about how the house was bought. What we live in is not a house, but the blood and sweat of the people!"
Li Xiuxian: “…”
"I just said I was tired, I didn't quit, why are you so angry? Didn't I work until this late?"
Zhou Chengsen was also very tired, so he turned over and went to sleep, not having the energy to pay attention to her.
Of course, fishing at sea is tiring! It’s dirty, smelly, tiring and dangerous!
Otherwise, why did he study hard since he was a child, and after working in the production team, he continued to go to the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University? He just didn't want to be a fisherman.
