Chapter 471 Satisfaction

After using lights to lure two nets, it was already five o'clock and the sky was beginning to get light.

Zhou Chenglei seized the time and continued to use lights to trap.

Nets were set on both sides of the boat, several small nets in total.

Zhou Chenglei is on this side, Zhou Kangping is on the other side, and the two lights are shining together.

As the sky grew brighter, the two of them collected their nets one by one.

Jiang Xia saw that every net that was pulled up contained about 10 to 20 kilograms of small squid, but no fish, probably they had escaped.

A total of four small nets were set up, and the total catch should be around 100 kilograms of small tube squid!

Today was a really fruitful day out at sea.

There were so many fish that the entire deck was covered with fish.

There is no place to put the net even if we drag it again, and it is windy today, so we have to transport these small fish back early and arrange for someone to dry them in the sun.

It is best to dry fish when the wind is strong.

After drying, they can be made into small, flavorful fish and sold for money.

Zhou Chenglei drove the boat towards Zhou Guodong's boat. When he was getting close, he shouted to them, "Adong, we're going back first. We'll take you to the island with mussels tomorrow."

The three Zhou Guodong brothers took a look at the pile of fish on their boat and quickly responded, "Okay!"

Jiang Xia also took a look at the fish on their boat.

Yes, I also caught two baskets of small squids and several baskets of small fish.

Jiang Xia said: "A Dong, please sell those small fish to me when the time comes!"

Zhou Guodong said hurriedly, "Okay, that's what we were planning. You guys don't want the fish heads when you make dried fish, right? We'll clean the fish heads, dry them, and then send them to your house."

Jiang Xia smiled and said, "No, I don't want the fish head. Thank you!"

Drying them before selling them saves her a lot of trouble.

Jiang Xia thought that these small fish could be dried and made into delicious small fish after a day or two of drying, so she hurriedly asked, "A Dong, do you know the phone number of Xu Ling's production team?"

Zhou Guodong shook his head after hearing this: "I don't know, is sister-in-law looking for Xu Ling to work for her? I'll tell her when I get back from the sea."

Xu Ling told him that Jiang Xia asked her to help make dried fish, and the salary was 60 yuan per month during the probation period, and 80 yuan per month after the probation period.

Jiang Xia smiled and said, "Okay, then tell her that if she is free tomorrow, she can start working. If she is not free tomorrow, the day after tomorrow will be fine."

"Okay, I'll go over and tell her this afternoon."

*At 7:30 in the morning, Zhou Chenglei drove the boat to the dock.

The pier is also busy in the morning.

Because there are many ships returning from going out to sea at night, and many people from nearby villages come to buy seafood.

The villagers were shocked when they saw the fish on Zhou Chenglei's boat: "A Lei, where did you catch so many small fish?"

"This weighs tens of thousands of kilograms!"

"And the little squid!"

"Can I take a picture of the little squid now? I just took pictures for two hours the night before last, and I didn't get anything!"

“I didn’t even take a picture last night!”

"I took some photos last night, but nothing happened either."

"Alei, where did you get the squid?"

Zhou Chenglei: “It’s quite far.”

"No wonder! It probably swam over here tonight."

"Prepare some more diesel tonight and go out to sea early. I'll go take some photos from a distance as well."

"Me too! Buy the fish quickly and go home to bed, so we can go out to sea early tonight."

…

For fishermen, nothing is more anticipated than the fishing season.

Jiang Xia and Zhou Kangping picked out the small squid on the boat.

Zhou Chenglei drove back on his motorcycle to drive the tractor over, pulled the small fish home, and asked her mother to hire someone to deal with them.

Grandpa Jin came over and took a look at the small fish on the boat. Knowing that the Zhou family was selling multi-flavored small fish, he had no intention of taking the small fish. He just asked, "Comrade Xiao Xia, are you selling these small squids?"

Jiang Xia nodded: "Sell it, keep one basket and sell the rest."

Jiang Xia plans to keep a basket of small squid to try out the taste of the small squid with multiple flavors.

Mr. Jin was very happy to hear this: "Okay, then you can sort them and send them over, and I'll give you a good price!"

Jiang Xia asked, "How much?"

"One yuan per pound!"

Jiang Xia laughed and said, "Mr. Jin, are you taking advantage of me because I don't know the market? During the peak season, small squid can be sold for one yuan per catty. I'm just starting out, there aren't many small squid in the market, and yet you're charging one yuan per catty. Besides, look how fat my small squid are? The lowest is one yuan and twenty cents!"

Scarcity makes things valuable, so the price must be higher at the beginning. As more people catch them later, it is normal for it to be cheaper.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

"No way! During the peak season, I charge 80 or 90 cents per pound. Well, in case you think I'm cheating you, one dollar and one cent per pound, how about that! One dollar and one cent is already very high."

"I won't sell it for less than $1.20. I'll take it home and cook it into small squids with various flavors."

Grandpa Jin: "One dollar and twenty cents is too high, but if you catch squid in the future and sell it to me, I will take the one dollar and twenty cents this time."

Jiang Xia refused: "Forget it, I won't sell it. I'll take it home and make it into multi-flavored squids."

Mr. Jin: “…”

People who are too capable really can't be controlled at all.

If it were someone else, he would just offer whatever price he wants, whether he sells it or not! "One dollar and twenty cents is fine! This price is comparable to the price in the market. If you catch small squid in the future, don't go to the market to sell it, just come directly to me!"

Jiang Xia smiled and said, "Okay, if I call and ask and it's really the same as the market price."

Mr. Jin: “…”

Zhou Chenglei came back soon driving a tractor.

Great-grandmother and He Xinghuan also came over to help pack the small fish. They held dustpans and packed the small fish one by one. They picked out the small squids and poured them directly into the basket.

Not long after, Zhou's mother came with a few people, and then she picked out all the small squids and packed the small fish.

Everyone carried baskets of goods off the boat and onto the tractor.

The tractor couldn't hold so many baskets, so they started processing directly at the dock.

Zhou Chenglei picked up a load of small squid and sold it at the purchasing office for 107 yuan.

There should be more than 8,000 kilograms of these small fish. Jiang Xia estimated that he could make about 10,000 yuan by selling those dried small fish into multi-flavored small fish.

Because these fish were caught by themselves and there was no cost, of course the cost had to be calculated when splitting the profits with He Xinghuan.

That means she can earn about six thousand.

Jiang Xia was very satisfied with his first trip to the sea in the new year.

Zhou Chenglei handed the money to Jiang Xia and helped her onto the tractor.

Zhou's mother and great-grandmother also followed the tractor back to deal with the small fish on the tractor.

Jiang Xia took it, put it in his pocket, and was about to get on the tractor when someone from the production team ran out and said, "Xiao Xia, your brother called you and asked you to call him back when you have time."

Jiang Xia said to Zhou Chenglei, "I'm going to make a call. You guys go back first. I'll walk back by myself in a bit."

Zhou Chenglei: "I'll pick you up later."

"No need to go through so much trouble. I can walk back by myself." Jiang Xia said this and went in to make a phone call.

The call was connected, and Jiang Dong's voice came from the other end of the line: "Sister, do you have 200,000 yuan?"
