Chapter 5: Definitely Wanted
Ye Qing asked, "Uncle Ba, can you sell it at the highest price?"
Uncle Ba laughed: "Of course."
“Scarcity makes things valuable.”
"I heard the vendors talking about flying fish the other day. I'm sure they'll all be vying for your boatload of flying fish."
Ye Qingsong breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."
Selling flying fish at a high price can solve the urgent problem.
After a while, Uncle Ba and the others left the dock and went home, but Ye Qing did not leave.
My father had just undergone surgery and needed a series of follow-up treatments. He could not leave the hospital for a long time, and my mother was taking good care of him.
The fact that there was no one at home gave him the opportunity to go fishing.
Otherwise, if his parents were at home, they would never agree to let him go fishing.
He didn't want to go back because his parents were not at home.
Mainly worried about the fish on this boat, I simply stayed in Grandpa Lin’s tavern, not far from the pier, for the night.
The door of the wooden house is not locked. When you push the door open, the wind chimes will ring, making a crisp and pleasant ding-dong sound.
When he was a child, he loved to come to the tavern the most. It was very lively at that time. The elders in the village and foreign merchants liked to come here to drink after dark and chat about many interesting things from all over the world. This made him, who was still ignorant at the time, full of curiosity about the outside world.
now.
Grandpa Lin no longer runs the tavern, and the wooden house looks shabby. Ye Qing touched the table and found it was quite clean, which meant someone must have been taking care of it.
He pulled two tables together and lay down as a bed.
Ye Qing thought he would not be able to sleep, but as soon as he lay down and closed his eyes, he fell asleep in a short while.
He dreamed of selling flying fish and holding three bundles of cash. He was so happy that he jumped three meters high.
Zhengmei was smiling foolishly when she was suddenly woken up by someone.
When I opened my eyes, I saw the two elders who had just come to help.
Ye Qing rubbed his eyes and greeted him quickly.
One of them said a little embarrassedly: "Qingzi, can you tell us specifically where you caught the flying fish? We are going to try our luck."
The other person had a big smile on his face, and his flattering intention was obvious in his words.
They had gone out to sea several times before but had no success and lost nearly ten thousand dollars on gas. Now they finally learned that there was a school of flying fish. They couldn't sleep when they got home, so they decided to go fishing at the place Ye Qing mentioned.
Ye Qing didn't keep anyone in suspense and told the location seriously. Both of them were experienced fishermen, and after listening to what he said, they had basically locked down the location.
They were overjoyed and each boarded a fishing boat.
soon.
In the dark night, two fishing boats went out to sea.
Ye Qing looked at it and no longer felt sleepy.
He couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion. The village depends on the sea for its livelihood. In the past year, because of the dragon ball, the fish left the waters near Longwei Island, which made life difficult for the fishermen.
This is not.
Seeing him come back with a boat full of flying fish, everyone became a little restless.
He hopes that the two elders can benefit from it.
Now that the dragon ball has been absorbed by him, this sea area is no longer affected and the fish should slowly return.
He also has his own little selfish motives.
The fishermen on Longwei Island hadn't caught any big catches in the past year, but today he went out to sea and caught a boatload of flying fish.
Once, twice, it can be attributed to good luck.
What about ten times, or a hundred times?
Others couldn't catch any fish, but he kept getting liquidated. Even a fool could tell that something was wrong with him.
As the saying goes, don't show off your wealth.
In order to develop in a low-key manner, make money with peace of mind, and avoid unnecessary prying eyes, the simplest and most effective way at the moment is to allow other fishermen to catch fish when they go out to sea.
As for how much they can gain, it depends on their ability and luck.
Ye Qing woke up at dawn.
When I opened my eyes, I didn’t feel sleepy at all. After living in symbiosis with the electric eel, I felt like a completely different person.
Full of energy, he jumped up from the table, stretched comfortably, and his gaze naturally extended into the distance.
The boundless blue sea comes into view, and the white clouds in the distant sky are layered one after another. As the sun rises slowly, they reflect the extremely bright morning glow.
The slightly moist air made him take a few deep breaths.
A new day.
It starts again!
I had just eaten in the early hours of the night before, so I wasn’t hungry at all when I woke up this morning, so I headed straight to the pier.
After arriving at the dock and waiting for a long time, the merchant who was supposed to collect the goods did not show up.
Not long after, Uncle Ba came.
Seeing Ye Qing looking anxious, Uncle Ba persuaded him that under normal circumstances, the vendor would definitely come even if it was late.
If a vendor really cannot come due to something, he will definitely contact the village chief to avoid keeping everyone waiting in vain.
Ye Qing had no choice but to wait for a while while chatting with Uncle Ba.
We've been talking till our mouths are dry, but the vendor hasn't arrived yet.
Uncle Ba saw that he was getting anxious and angry, so he said, "It's getting boring just waiting. The tide is just going out, why don't you go and catch some fish to kill time."
"I'll be on guard here, and I'll let you know as soon as the vendors arrive."
Ye Qing felt a little embarrassed.
Uncle Ba kicked him out and told him to get out so as not to disturb him while he was smoking.
Ye Qing said thank you to Uncle Ba, rubbed his butt and walked towards the white sand beach.
Early in the morning.
There were not many people on the white sand beach, just a few villagers going to the beach to catch seafood.
But after working all morning, I couldn't find anything.
The influence of Dragon Ball on this sea area will not disappear in a short time.
The sea water is relatively clear and very suitable for playing, traveling and leisure, but the villagers rely on the sea for their livelihood, and what everyone is most concerned about is whether they can harvest more fish.
This is the general environment.
Everyone is looking for a way out.
He occasionally sees some beach-hunting bloggers on video platforms, who can pick up a lot of seafood just by going to the beach, and he always sneers at them.
Nine out of ten are fake.
There is another one that is so fake that it is simply bullying people's IQ.
Ye Qing came to the white sand beach, greeted the people he knew, then took off his shoes and walked into the sea. He felt the sea was very friendly.
When he reached the knee-deep water, an electric eel not far away sensed him and rushed towards him with a "whoosh".
Everyone was busy catching seafood and no one noticed.
Ye Qing patted the electric eel's head and secretly took out two flying fish from his pocket. The electric eel began to eat happily.
After the electric eel finished eating, it swam around him twice in satisfaction.
He asked the electric eel to search for any seafood nearby. The electric eel relies on the electric current to determine whether there is any seafood. It said there was no seafood on the beach, but there was some on the rocky beach.
The rocky beach is closer to the pier. Most of it will be submerged during high tide, and when the tide recedes, it becomes a rocky beach with rugged rocks.
In the past, many villagers went to the sea to catch seafood nearby, but now there is not a single one.
Ye Qing strode towards the rocky beach. Occasionally, when he found some marine debris, he would pick it up to the best of his ability. There wasn't much, as the people of Longwei Island paid more attention to protecting the marine environment.
Not far away.
A young fisherman saw Ye Qing bending down to pick up something, and thought he had found some seafood, so he hurried over.
Seeing that he was picking up garbage, he was very disappointed: "Qingzai, you are not right."
"You come here early in the morning to pick up trash."
"I heard you went fishing yesterday. You looked a bit stressed."
This is a roundabout way of saying he is crazy.
Ye Qing said without even looking up: "I'm just sitting around doing nothing."
The man taunted her, "Since you're so free, why don't you come to my house and clean it up? I have tons of trash, bottles and cans, and you can even sell them for some money."
Ye Qing raised his head and looked at him coldly.
The man felt guilty after being looked at: "I... I mean well."
Ye Qing said calmly: "Then I won't bother you with your kindness."
This person's name is Cai Ya, a peer of ours in the village, but they are not childhood friends because they have a bad relationship, and it's quite bad. The reason is simple, because their parents don't get along, and they don't get along either.
Since childhood, he has been a better student than Cai Ya. Because of this, Cai Ya was often beaten by his father.
Over time, Cai Ya came to hate him.
This was the first time they met since he was admitted to university.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they met, Cai Ya came up to him and mocked him.
Just then.
Ye Qing noticed a flash of red light in the cave where two reefs overlapped.
At this time.
The surging waves hit and flooded the cave, making a rumbling sound. When the waves receded, there was nothing left in the cave except the remaining white foam.
But he was very sure that there must have been something there just now.
He let the electric eel make sure.
