Chapter 161: Picking up Intestines



Chapter 161: Picking up Intestines

Sea sausage noodles can completely preserve the freshness of sea sausage. Adding it to stir-fried dishes will make them much fresher than adding oyster sauce.

How much is sea sausage and oyster sauce?

After having an idea in her mind, Song Shiwei was no longer panicked. After filling the bucket, she carried the bucket back.

When the sisters-in-law saw that she really brought back a bucket of this stuff, they couldn't help but become very curious.

"Weiwei, why did you pick up so many of these things?"

Song Shi smiled and said, "This thing is edible!"

When the sisters-in-law heard her say it was edible, their reactions were similar to those of Sun Meimei and others.

"Ah? This thing is edible?"

"It looks so ugly, but you can actually eat it?"

"No, no, it looks like an earthworm, I won't eat it!"

One of the sisters-in-law picked up one end of the sausage, but it fell to the other end like a balloon filled with water.

She swallowed with some difficulty and put it back into Song Shiwei's bucket.

"This thing makes me sick just looking at it, don't even think about letting me eat it!"

Song Shiwei put the bucket back into the house and carried out another empty bucket.

This time she also put scissors and chopsticks, as well as a scale and a weight in the bucket. When the sisters-in-law saw her carrying the bucket to pick up sea sausages again, they couldn't help but shake their heads.

"Hey, only Wei Wei dares to eat this!"

Song Shiwei carried the bucket all the way to the beach. This time she didn't pick them up directly, but found a villager who was looking for seafood.

"Brother, are you here to catch the sea?"

The elder brother nodded and said, "Yeah, I thought some good things would be washed up from the sea after this heavy rain, but who would have thought it would be all this stuff! It's inedible, ugly, and sticky, and it's disgusting just looking at it! It's so unlucky!"

Hearing his evaluation of the sausage, she couldn't help but smile.

"So, what did you get today, big brother?"

The man lifted the bucket and showed it to her.

"Look, I only caught a few small fish, not even enough to fill my stomach!"

Song Shiwei stretched his head to take a look, and sure enough, there were only a few small fish as thick as fingers, with very little meat on them.

"Brother, would you like to help me pick up this sea sausage? I'll pay you!"

When that person heard this, he looked at Song Shiwei as if he was a fool, with disbelief in his eyes.

"What? You want us to help you pick up this sausage? And pay us? Little girl, are you okay?"

Song Shiwei laughed a little.

"I'm fine, big brother. These sausages may be useless to you, but I am! Do you want to do it? But I want the packed sausages! I'll give you 10 cents per pound! What do you think?"

The man was still in shock. "One cent?"

The outstretched hand was shaking unconsciously.

"Little girl, are you sure you want to give us 1 cent per pound?"

Seeing that he was in disbelief, Song Shiwei smiled, squatted down, picked up a sea sausage, neatly cut off the two ends with scissors, then squeezed out the dirt and water, turned it over quickly with chopsticks, and rinsed it clean.

Holding the thin layer of skin in his hand, he smiled and said to him, "I want to buy the processed ones like this, one pound for one cent! Do you want to do it?"

The man looked at the sea cucumber skin in her hand, blinked, and when he realized what was happening, his face suddenly showed ecstasy.

"Fuck, fuck, fuck! Of course I'm willing to do it!!"

As he was about to pick up the sea sausages, Song Shiwei hurriedly stopped him and said, "Brother, could you please go back to the village and ask if there are other people who want to do it together? If you find someone to help me pick up the sea sausages, I will give you two cents!"

The man was visibly happier when he heard this.

He patted his chest and assured Song Shiwei.

"No problem, leave it to me! I'll go find someone for you right now!"

Find someone to share two points with! Of course he is willing!

As expected, money makes the world go round. Song Shiwei only waited for about five or six minutes.

A group of people came, at least forty or fifty of them, young and old, including strong laborers in the village and women who had nothing to do at home.

"Little girl, I heard from Daniu's father that you want to pick up some sea sausages. Is that right? I'll give you 20 cents for a pound."

"That's right, little girl, you can't bluff me with that! Are you really going to give me money?"

"If you give us money, we'll do it!"

"That's right, it's just like picking it up for free, why not do it?"

Everyone was talking at once, and Song Shiwei quickly clapped his hands to get everyone to be quiet.

"Everyone, listen to me. I do buy sea intestines, and I do charge 20 cents per pound, but I have to process them properly. Now I will show you the standard by which I buy sea intestines!"

As she spoke, she took a sausage and, just as she had demonstrated to the big brother just now, cut off the two ends with scissors, squeezed out the dirt and water, then used chopsticks to turn the sausage over and rinsed it clean!

Pointing at the sea sausage skin in his hand, he said to everyone, "See? I want this, 20 cents per pound! If you are willing to work, go pick it up, and when you are done, come to me to weigh it and get paid!"

Hearing her words, those people were delighted.

"There's so much stuff here, all over the beach, it's easy to pick them up, only 20 cents per pound, I have to hurry and pick them up!"

"Me too. I'm just sitting around doing nothing anyway, so I might as well make some money! It doesn't take much effort!"

Some people came with their whole family, and some who heard the noise also ran over to see what was going on. After asking, they also joined the group picking up sea cucumbers.

The big brother just came over with a smile on his face.

"Little girl, do you think I have found enough people for you? I have just finished. I have found fifty-six people for you. Do you have to give me one dollar and twelve cents?"

Song Shi smiled and nodded: "Of course I keep my word, I won't give you anything less!"

Then he took out a dollar from his pocket and handed it to him.

"Brother, this is your hard work fee! The extra few cents are just a thank you for helping me!"

Seeing how generous she was, the man was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling.

"Okay, okay, little girl, thank you! If there is such a good thing in the future, you must think of me. My home is in Likou Village, four or five miles ahead! My name is Li Dazhuang!"

In fact, during this period, Song Shiwei also carefully observed him. This man was very efficient. He found people for her so quickly. He was also very honest. He didn't even charge for those seven or eight-year-old children he found.

If it were up to such a shrewd and calculating person, not to mention children of seven or eight years old who can do farm work, even little kids of four or five years old who can pick up things, he could include them in your calculations!

"Don't worry, if I need you, I'll send someone to find you!"

When Li Dazhuang heard this, he immediately picked up the bucket and went to pick up the sea sausages happily.

With the addition of more than fifty people, after Song Shiwei filled his bucket, he found a stone to sit down and began to clean up the sea sausages.

The beach was packed with sea sausages, and even with so many people picking them up, it still seemed like a huge project.

The families began to divide the work and cooperate. The men were responsible for picking up the trash and the women were responsible for cleaning up.

Someone else carried a large basin and put all the cleaned sea sausages into it.
