"23 pounds and six ounces, just give me 23 yuan."
Chen Wang handed over the fish strung on a rope.
Without waiting for Xu Tiancheng to extend his hand, the two young men rushed forward to help take the fish. One of them even pretended to help pay for it, but was stopped by Xu Tiancheng.
Xu Tiancheng opened the wallet in his hand, took out two big unity notes and a five-yuan note, and handed them to Chen Wang together.
"No need to give me the change. Next time you have something good, remember to leave some with me. If I'm not here, you can send it directly to the supply and marketing station."
"All right!"
Chen Wang didn't act pretentiously and nodded in agreement.
Afterwards, Xu Tiancheng went to Chen Dazhuang again and paid for the roe deer and rabbit meat. The two young men still helped to get the goods.
"Xiao Chen, you guys are busy, we'll leave first."
Xu Tiancheng said to Chen Wang with a smile.
"Okay, take care!"
Chen Wang smiled and nodded.
After the three left, other customers saw that Xu Tiancheng bought so much at once and could not wait any longer, so they all started to rush to buy.
After a while, all the fish on Chen Wang’s stall were sold out.
Chen Wang counted the money and the total was 238.9 yuan.
The original amount of fish collected was 246 jin, and at one yuan per jin, the price should be 246.
But as the first order was discounted by 20%, Chen Wang rounded off some of the odds, so the total amount was a few dollars less.
Another half an hour later, Chen Dazhuang's goods were also sold out.
"Awang, here is your money!"
Chen Dazhuang handed him some money.
When he was selling the goods just now, he kept the money separately. All the money from the sale of Chen Wang's half roe deer meat and wild rabbit meat was put here.
Chen Wang took the money and counted it, the total was 107.6 yuan.
A large part of it, of course, comes from the money from selling twenty or thirty kilograms of roe deer meat. At three yuan a pound, the meat is still quite valuable.
Chen Wang took out the 123 yuan that was to be given to Old Man Lu and put it into his left trouser pocket. The remaining 223.5 yuan was his income for the day.
It is definitely not comparable to the previous time when he earned 1,000 yuan, but he is also very satisfied.
You know, the average monthly salary of urban workers is only 40 to 60 yuan, and he earned several months' salary in this trip.
"Pack up, find a place to eat, and then go buy some things for Old Man Lu and his family."
Chen Wang said to Chen Dazhuang.
Chen Zhuang nodded with a smile, squatted down to collect the empty sacks, and said, "It's my treat today!"
After they packed their things, they found a cooking stall in the market.
There is a shed behind the stall, with several sets of folding tables and chairs inside.
It was almost time for dinner and all the seats were occupied. The two waited for a few minutes and saw a table of guests leaving, so they hurried over to take a seat.
This is a family that came out to set up a stall.
An old woman came over to help clear the table, and then a young girl with a ponytail came over with a small notebook and a pen and asked them what they wanted to eat.
"You can look at the ingredients over there and order some. We can cook them for you if they are available."
The girl pointed to the long table where the ingredients were piled and added.
"Any recommendations for food?"
Chen Wang asked with a smile.
The pretty girl blushed slightly, lowered her eyes and quickly named a few dishes: "Stir-fried pork with peppers, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, stewed pork ribs with potatoes..."
"Then let's have the twice-cooked pork and the fried pork ribs with potatoes. You can order the rest, Zhuang."
Chen Wang looked at Chen Dazhuang and said.
"Then stir-frying some vegetables and making a soup should be enough. What kind of soup do you have?"
"How about mushroom and shredded pork soup?"
"Okay, that's it. Four more beers."
"OK."
After quickly writing it down in her notebook, the girl turned around and hurried over to her mother who was in the kitchen.
"Awang, you are so lucky. She is blushing."
Chen Dazhuang made faces and grinned playfully.
"Really? Why didn't I see it? Are you dazzled?"
Chen Wang said calmly.
"Oh! I'm not blind at all. He's just a little taller and more handsome than me. How abominable!!"
Chen Dazhuang's tone was full of envy and jealousy.
Chen Wang raised his hand, smoothed back his hair, and said with a melancholy look on his face: "Sometimes being handsome can also be a kind of distress."
Chen Dazhuang looked at him in amazement. After a long while, he spat fiercely on the ground.
"Bah! How shameless!"
"You are just blatantly jealous. I won't argue with you."
Chen Wang poured himself a free cup of tea and took a sip elegantly.
Noticing someone was staring at him, he looked over and saw the young girl not far away turning around in panic with a red face, pretending to wipe the dining table seriously.
Chen Wang felt inexplicably happy.
Of course, he definitely had no bad intentions.
Not to mention that in his eyes, Lin Xiuqin was an excellent wife and mother, with impeccable figure and appearance. Even if there were people prettier than his wife, he would not do anything to let her down.
Being admired by a young and beautiful girl always makes people happy.
Soon, several dishes were brought over by the little girl.
Every time she put the dishes on the table, she didn't dare to look at Chen Wang. Only after he turned and walked away would she turn her head and secretly glance at him.
Unmarried young girls these days are still very reserved and traditional. When they see a boy they like, they dare not take the initiative to strike up a conversation with him, but just keep this innocent love hidden in their hearts.
