"This is good stuff!"
Lin Sen stared intently at the two-hundred-pound turtle on the cart.
There were no wildlife protection laws in the 1980s.
So, the old turtle was fished out of the sea.
You can eat that as much as you want!
So these days, as long as people are lucky and have money in their pockets, they can succeed.
You could eat all sorts of delicacies there.
What a treat!
"Brother De."
So, after circling the old turtle, Lin Sen looked intently at Tang De and asked, "Brother De, are you selling this old turtle?"
"Sell it!"
Tang De immediately replied, "I was just about to take it to the city and try my luck at the market to see if I could sell it."
"how."
Seeing that Lin Sen was interested in the big turtle, Tang De immediately asked, "Brother Lin Sen, are you planning to take this old turtle in?"
"Komori?"
"son?"
Instantly, Lin Jianguo and Zhan Xiufang, who had just come out of the room, both looked at Lin Sen with suspicion.
Although soft-shelled turtles are precious, there aren't many people in Linhai County who can afford to buy and eat them.
And this thing can't withstand long-distance transportation now.
Therefore, neither Lin Jianguo nor Zhan Xiufang wanted Lin Sen to take in this old turtle.
Because there's no point in collecting it!
"Brother De, I'll take it!"
Although Lin Jianguo and Zhan Xiufang were reluctant, Lin Sen looked at Tang De with great interest: "Brother De, how much do you plan to sell this old turtle?"
"I estimate that there aren't many people in the city who can afford this thing."
"Once you get to the city, you'll probably have made a wasted trip."
"You definitely can't finish it all if you eat it all yourself."
Lin Sen looked at Tang De: "So if the price is right, I'll take it!"
"That way you won't have to make a trip to the city."
"Brother Lin, just name your price."
Upon hearing this, Tang De grinned sheepishly.
He also knew that turtles were precious, but because they didn't have much meat, there weren't many people willing to buy them these days.
He was even planning to release the goods if he couldn't sell them in the city.
After all, killing it is a lot of work, and you can't get much meat from it.
"Brother De, this old turtle looks to weigh two hundred pounds."
"So I set the price at 25 cents per pound."
"Fifty yuan!"
Lin Sen held up one finger at Tang De: "If you're willing to sell, I'll buy it!"
"Fifty dollars?"
Upon hearing Lin Sen's words, Tang De was stunned, his eyes widening in disbelief.
Because the turtle didn't have much meat, he thought he'd be lucky to sell it for ten or so yuan in the city!
Lin Sen actually offered him fifty.
This is truly a wonderful surprise.
"Brother Lin, you don't need this much."
Tang De immediately replied, "If you really want it, just give me twenty yuan."
"That won't do, it has to be fifty yuan."
"Or I might as well not want it!"
Lin Sen chuckled and stuffed fifty yuan into Tang De's hand: "Brother De, if you ever find anything rare again, remember to come to me right away."
"I want any kind of rare or precious fish, whether it's a large yellow croaker, a large squid, a naked carp, a large crab, or a large lobster!"
"Your price will satisfy you."
Lin Sen patted Tang De on the shoulder heavily.
"well!"
Tang De, who was very excited, immediately responded with a flurry of words.
I am truly overjoyed and happy.
After all, fifty yuan is no small amount.
"Brother Lin, I'm leaving now."
Tang De unloaded the old turtle from the cart: "If you need anything in the future, just call me anytime, and I'll definitely help."
"Alright, Brother De, take care."
Lin Sen smiled and waved, watching Tang De leave.
"Xiaosen, you're buying this? Can you really sell it?"
"City folks, do they really want to eat this?"
After Tang De left, Lin Jianguo and Zhan Xiufang looked at the giant turtle weighing at least 200 pounds in front of them, both of them looking at each other with some worry.
They were afraid that Lin Sen was wasting his money.
"Mom and Dad, don't worry."
"Since I've taken it, I'm confident I can sell it!"
Under the worried gazes of Lin Jianguo and Zhan Xiufang, Lin Sen shrugged slightly and grinned: "Ordinary people in the city definitely can't afford this stuff, and they wouldn't eat it."
"But the city leaders."
"But they'll definitely love this stuff, and they'll eat it!"
"And they'll enjoy their food!"
"Ha ha."
"Slap! Slap!"
As he spoke, Lin Sen forcefully tapped the old turtle's shell.
You know, these days, even though leaders' salaries aren't high.
However, the leaders' food, clothing, housing, and transportation are all paid for by public funds, not by them.
As for publicly funded expenses, there are no standards!
Many leaders of state-owned factories might only earn a thousand yuan a year in salary. But their reimbursed entertainment expenses alone could easily amount to ten thousand yuan a year!
This is not just nonsense!
Not to mention the 1980s, even up until after the millennium.
Such publicly funded meals and drinks are very common!
"Mom and Dad, Yue Ru, you two rest."
"If any villagers come to sell small shrimp, small crabs, or small yellow croakers, you should buy them."
“I will go to the city to sell it, and then I will go to sell the medicinal herbs and spices used to make spice bags.”
"I'm leaving now."
"Giddy up!"
After waving to Lin Jianguo, Zhan Xiufang, and Li Yueru, Lin Sen drove the carriage directly to the county town.
Before long, Lin Sen arrived at the Huifu Hotel.
Manager Zhao has been found!
People Lin Sen met in the county town.
