"Don't be so nervous, he's just a three-year-old child." Jin Qianqian patted Lichun and her juniors.
Lichun and the others did not relax. They were careless before and they would not allow such a mistake to happen again.
"Little girl, where are the adults in your family?"
The little girl looked at them curiously. It was obvious that these three beautiful aunts were not from the village.
"The adults are at home," the little girl stared at them curiously.
"Then why are you here alone?" Jin Qianqian couldn't help but think that the people here are really generous. They leave the child alone at the entrance of the village and are not afraid of encountering beggars.
The little girl tilted her head and thought for a while, "Dad and Mom are asleep, I'm going out to play."
Jin Qianqian knew that the fishermen here worked according to the tide and sometimes they stayed at sea all night.
This little girl probably sneaked out while the adults were resting, which would explain why there were so few people in the village in broad daylight.
Jin Qianqian stood up and looked at Lichun and the others. "It seems that we came at the wrong time today. It is better not to enter the village and disturb their rest."
Since the master said so, Lichun and the others naturally had no objection. When they were about to turn around and leave, they saw an old woman walking towards them quickly with a cane.
"Xiaohua, why are you here? Go back quickly." The old lady looked at them with a wary look on her face, and did not forget to scold the little girl for going towards her.
"Who are you? What's the matter with you coming to our Fishing Village?"
"Zhaoyu Village," Jin Qianqian looked around at the seafood drying on the beach and nodded, "This name is auspicious.
Hello, grandma. I just want to ask, do you sell the seafood here?"
"Are you here to collect the goods?" The old woman looked at them for a while, "You don't look like you're here to collect the goods?"
How could this happen when I came to collect goods in the past? Walking on this beach, I am not afraid of being corroded by the sea breeze.
Jin Qianqian looked down and there seemed to be nothing wrong. She had even picked some simple clothes for this trip.
But she forgot that the simple clothes were out of their reach in the eyes of the fishermen who were usually used to wearing coarse hemp.
"We don't sell food to outsiders. We only supply fixed merchants. Why don't you go to other villages to have a look?" The old woman looked at their young faces, wondering in her heart what these people's intentions were.
Jin Qianqian didn't know that these villages would have dealings with fixed merchants, so she smiled and said, "It just so happens that my master and I are passing by here, and we want to take some seafood back. We don't want much, so I wonder if Grandma can share some with us."
The old lady felt a little relieved, as they had encountered similar situations before.
It's just that the young men and ladies in the city have nothing to do and want to take a walk on the beach, and want to bring some things back as souvenirs.
"Then you have to wait here. I'll go find the person in charge. I'm an old woman and I don't understand these things."
Jin Qianqian, "This is what I should do. Thank you, grandma."
The old woman was about to walk back with her cane, but she stopped after taking two steps and shouted to the little girl, "Ahua, come back with me quickly. Your parents will be worried if they don't see you."
The little girl was quite well-behaved. She trotted over and held the old lady's hand. She also looked back at Jin Qianqian and said, "Grandma, they are so beautiful."
"Well, those are all noble people. Ah Hua, remember this, you must not offend them..."
Lichun waited until the old man and the child walked away and said, "Madam, this fishing village looks like a good place to live. I'm afraid no one wants to get on the boat."
Jin Qianqian, "It doesn't matter if no one is willing. Seeing that these seafood are handled quite well, if possible, we can order some back. Then we can use them as New Year gifts."
Jin Qianqian would not force anything that she was not sure of. Besides, since she was already here and saw so many fresh seafood, it would be unreasonable not to stock up some.
"I'm afraid we won't be able to buy these seafood products." Li Qiu is usually in charge of purchasing in the mansion, so he knows the rules here.
Some vendors who are more flexible will pocket the goods in batches and then sell them separately to make a profit.
Seeing how carefully these seafood were handled, I didn't have any expectations.
I was afraid that my wife would be too disappointed later, so I laid the groundwork in advance.
Jin Qianqian, "Whether it succeeds or not, we just spent some time asking, but it seems that this fishing village has their own unique features, otherwise there would not be such a good harvest."
The master and his servants were standing at the entrance of the village chatting. After a short while, they saw several men running towards them. Lichun and the others were so frightened that they immediately sat up and were on guard. They even thought about sending a signal to let the guards behind them come quickly.
Jin Qianqian gently patted their shoulders once or twice, "Don't worry, let's see the situation first."
Even if something happened, they only needed to deal with it for a few seconds, and the guards not far away would arrive in time.
Fortunately, these people ran over, stopped from a distance and looked at them, and no one knew what they were whispering about.
After a while, an old man who was in the lead came over with two old women.
Seeing them act like this, Jin Qianqian and the other two knew that these people were polite.
"I am the village chief of Zhaoyu Village. My last name is Xiao. I wonder what seafood you would like to have?"
Lichun: "You guys also sell this seafood to the public?"
Village Chief Xiao smiled and said, "If the number is large, I may not be able to do it, but if it's just a few, then I can still make the decision."
For bulk supplies, the price will definitely be suppressed. They have encountered individual customers like this before, and if they offer a high price, the villagers can live a little more easily.
After all, this was earned by the villagers at the cost of their lives, so who wouldn’t be happy to earn a little more money?
Li Qiu looked back at Jin Qianqian, nodded slightly to her, and immediately smiled, "Village Chief Xiao, as long as the quality is good, we will take whatever you can give us."
Village Chief Xiao glanced at the master who was protected by the two girls, stroked his beard and nodded, "The price will definitely be higher than the shipping price, but it is definitely much more affordable than the market price. If you don't mind, please come to the village to discuss in detail."
"Let's go into the village," Lichun made a decision immediately. "Then please wait for a moment, village chief. There are still people behind us who haven't arrived yet. When they arrive, we will go into the village together."
Just as Village Chief Xiao and his companions were wondering, they saw a little girl next to them take out a whistle from her sleeve and blew it, which scared Village Chief Xiao and his companions so much that they immediately became alert.
"What are you doing? Do you just want to harm our fishing village?"
Although they had never seen bandits come ashore, other villages had suffered from it. Seeing these three people acting in this way, they immediately became defensive.
The few men following him even wanted to run to the village to call for help.
