Chapter 417 Money

After hearing what Tian Caihua said, Father Li felt even more upset.

He used to work in a timber factory. If he also went to catch fish, he would definitely recognize it as agarwood at a glance! Li Qingmin also regretted it. Why didn't he go to catch fish with others?

If he also went to the sea to catch fish, such a big piece of agarwood would have been picked up by them!

How much is such a large piece of agarwood worth? Zhou Bingqiang couldn't believe it either, so he jumped on the boat to see if it was real. He even lowered his head and smelled it: it did have a fragrance, different from ordinary wood.

Zhou Bingqiang looked at this giant agarwood and doubted his life deeply! He had never seen agarwood before, but he had heard that agarwood was very valuable.

When will Zhou Yongfu's incredible luck turn to him?

Zhou Yongfu, Zhou Chenglei is already rich enough, right?

It's my family's turn to get rich starting this year, right?

The villagers all boarded the Zhou family's boat to see the agarwood and smell it to see if it really had a fragrance.

Zhou Bingqiang's wife couldn't help but secretly reach out and touch it.

Zhou's mother saw that her hands were dirty from cutting fish. She couldn't help but said, "Don't touch them. You can only look at them. It took us a long time to wash them clean! Thank you!"

Zhou Bingqiang's wife retracted her hand, disdainfully thinking: "It's just a piece of wood? It's so precious! I can't even touch it!"

Zhou Chengxin also got on the boat after selling the fish.

Tian Caihua saw him and quickly pulled him over: "Come and take a look at this agarwood and smell it. You must engrave this look and this smell in your mind! Don't forget it even in your dreams! Don't come across it in the sea or on the beach next time, because you won't know how to pick up the treasure!"

Tian Caihua said this to Zhou Chengxin, and also to herself.

The other villagers thought what Tian Caihua said made a lot of sense, so they all looked at it carefully and got closer to smell it.

Zhou Bingqiang's wife took the opportunity to say loudly: "Ahua is right, everyone come and take a serious look! Those with poor eyesight can smell it and get to know it! Don't come across it in the sea next time and don't know how to fish it out, thinking it is ordinary wood. Everyone should know what agarwood is. A small piece of agarwood is more expensive than fish!"

It would be best if everyone came up to take a look, touch it, and make it stink.

The agarwood has been turned into smelly agarwood and cannot be sold!

There were so many people around, she couldn't believe that she was the only one who wanted to touch it.

There were so many people on board that some people couldn't help but touch it.

Father Zhou hurriedly said, "Don't touch it! Don't touch it! You can't touch it! I just washed it! Don't let the fishy smell get on it! Just look at it, don't touch it. If you can't sell it, you will have to pay for it!"

Zhou's mother immediately drove them away: "Okay, stop looking! There are too many people here, the boat is going to sink! Everyone, make way! We are moving the wood off the boat!"

Zhou Chengxin, Zhou's father and Tian Caihua also drove them away.

It was not until Zhou Chenglei drove over with his tractor that the villagers got off the boat one after another, so as not to hinder them from moving the huge trees off the boat.

Of course, some people stayed to help with the move.

A group of people worked together to move the agarwood off the boat and onto the tractor.

The tractor's bed wasn't long enough, and half of the wood was sticking out of the bed.

Zhou's father sat on the truck bed and held down the wood to prevent it from falling to the ground.

Zhou's mother and Zhou Chengxin stayed together to sell fish.

Even after the tractor had gone far away, someone was still asking Zhou's mother where the agarwood was found.

Zhou's mother did not hide anything and told them that she found it in the western bay. She also told everyone that the tide was low in the western bay today and they picked up a lot of ribbons.

Many people saw the bags and bags of ribbons, each of which was very large, and said they would go and have a look tomorrow.

Some people who didn't have a boat at home asked Zhou's mother whether she wanted to go out to sea the next day, and wanted to take their boat over.

Zhou's mother did not agree rashly. She only said, "I don't know if we can go out to sea tomorrow. I don't know if A-lei will go to the city to sell the agarwood."

Everyone stopped after hearing this.

Father Li waited until there was no one around Zhou's mother before handing the money he made from fishing to her. "Mother-in-law, this is the money we made from fishing. It's a total of 22 yuan, 67 cents. We've already collected the 10 yuan salary. You can keep it and give it to Asen later!"

Zhou's mother took it with a smile: "Okay, thank you in-laws, you have worked hard today."

Then Father Li turned over the fish in the bucket and showed it to Mother Zhou: "I'll take this bucket of miscellaneous fish home to eat. Let's go home first."

Mother Zhou took a look and said with a smile: "Okay, next time save one or two bigger fish to take home to eat, these are too small."

"No, that's enough, let's go!"

"Okay, go back and rest early!!"

So Li's father and Li Qingmin left.

When Mr. Li and his son returned home, Mrs. Li immediately came forward and asked, "What fish did you catch today? How much did you sell it for?"

Father Li gave a stack of money to Mother Li.

The daughter said that the money from selling the fish caught by the father and son would belong to them, and it was her way of showing filial piety to them as a daughter.

Mother Li happily took it and started counting.

Li Qingmin's wife also asked Li Qingmin: "What about you? Didn't you catch any fish?"

Li Qingmin took out a wad of money and gave it to her: "No need to count. I caught three Spanish mackerels today, one of which weighed ten pounds. I also caught a sea bream and a few sea bass. The total was sixteen dollars and eighty cents. Dad and I each got eight dollars and forty cents."

Li Qingmin's wife couldn't help but count the money. After counting the five yuan a day, it was thirteen yuan and forty cents. She smiled and said, "Not bad!"

I can earn more than ten dollars every day!

It’s so easy to make money fishing at sea!

Li Qingmin was very proud. Of course it was good. They picked out the most valuable fish and regarded them as theirs. The money earned from selling them would also be theirs.

Li's mother also knew about this, but she felt at ease taking the money.

They married their daughter to Zhou Chengsen, and the father and son worked hard from dawn to dusk to help them go out to sea and make money. The daughter and son-in-law didn't have to do anything to get so much money.

Shouldn't the father and son get more money? It's good enough that they didn't have to split the money in half.

Li Qingmin's wife asked, "How much did Sister Xian and the others earn today?"

Li Qingmin: “More than twenty-two yuan.”

Li Qingmin’s wife: “So many!”

Almost ten dollars more than them.

Li Qingmin's wife couldn't help but say, "When our family saves enough money, we can buy a boat and go fishing ourselves!"

Li Qingmin also had such a plan: "Well, then you should be frugal and save the money."

After hearing this, Li's mother was moved. She said to Li's father, "Next time, take more fish as if they were caught by you. Anyway, no one will know whether those fish were caught by trawling or fishing."

Father Li shook his head: "Don't go too far."

The limit is to catch a few good fish every day and treat them as your own.

Otherwise, it would be bad if my in-laws and son-in-law found out!

After all, who can guarantee that they will catch good fish every day? They fished all day today, but only caught two sea bass and some worthless small fish. If they sold them all, they would only get a little over one yuan.

There were so many people at the dock that Father Li didn't dare to do anything too obvious.
