In the afternoon, we still had dinner together at Chen Dazhuang's house.
Compared with the 20 tables of banquet at noon, there were fewer people in the evening, mainly relatives and close friends of Chen Dazhuang, as well as Yan Yulan's father and two younger brothers.
When Chen Wang returned home after eating and drinking, he saw that the people who helped to process the lobsters were already busy.
Since they had to attend a wedding today, they were given a day off last night.
Of course, the women didn't want to rest at all.
You can get one dollar for just working three or four hours. Where can you find such a good thing?
Moreover, Chen Wang and Lin Xiuqin were very generous. They often gave them soda and watermelon, or shared snacks and fruits with them.
Lin Xiuqin was waiting for these employees at home and did not go there for dinner.
"Wife, it's time to eat."
Chen Wang handed her the aluminum lunch box he brought back, which contained rice and some of her favorite dishes.
Lin Xiuqin reached out to take the lunch box and glared at him with a blush.
"Oh, Awang is really good to his wife."
"That's right. My husband only cares about eating and drinking well. How could he remember to bring me food?"
"Wife, wow, it really makes my heart melt!"
Several women were joking with each other, but they didn't stop working.
A blush spread from Lin Xiuqin's jade neck upwards, dyeing her entire face red. She opened the lunch box and lowered her head to eat.
"Okay, okay, stop talking. My wife is shy."
Chen Wang said to them with a smile.
Seeing this, several women booed with envy.
"I won't talk to you anymore. I'm going to get the trap."
Chen Wang smiled, went into the house, got a flashlight and a plastic bucket, and went to the river.
Today is Chen Dazhuang's wedding night, so it is definitely impossible for me to go with him to dig a trap.
"Brother, I'll go with you."
The little girl ran over holding the little fox.
"Why are you following me? Go back."
"Brother Dazhuang isn't coming, I can help you with the flashlight!"
“There are a lot of mosquitoes near the river.”
"It's okay, I'm not afraid!"
"Okay, don't complain later."
…
…
At five o'clock the next morning, when Chen Dazhuang came over on his bicycle, his face was rosy and he looked energetic. He was completely different from the yawning he usually showed when he got up early.
As someone who has experienced this, Chen Wang certainly knows why.
"Why don't you stay home and spend more time with your wife today?"
To be honest, Chen Wang didn't plan for Chen Dazhuang to come over today, which is understandable.
"It's okay. Alan asked me to come."
Chen Dazhuang helped to move the basin full of crayfish and grinned at him.
"You can actually get up?"
Chen Wang asked meaningfully.
"Why can't I get up? I went to bed early last night!"
Chen Dazhuang pretended to be calm, but his face turned red.
Chen Wang didn't say anything else and got busy with his work with a smile on his face.
After a while, Uncle Zhao also came over driving a tractor.
By half past seven, everything was ready, and the three of them went to the town market as usual.
Today is market day in town. Even before arriving at the market, I can see a lot of people coming and going.
After the tractor stopped at the entrance of the market, Chen Wang and Chen Dazhuang carried two small pieces of stainless steel into the market.
Fortunately, an old customer was already waiting there and saved a stall for them, otherwise on market days like this, the spots near the entrance would have been occupied very early.
"Boss, why didn't you come yesterday? We were kept waiting for so long!"
Someone started to complain.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. My friend got married yesterday, so I really couldn't come. We told many of our old customers about this the day before yesterday."
Chen Wang apologized with a smile and explained the situation.
"So it's a marriage, I thought!"
"That's understandable. Congratulations!"
"Thanks!"
"Why haven't I heard about it?"
"That means you definitely didn't come to sell it the day before yesterday. We bought crayfish the day before yesterday, so we all know it anyway."
"I come here to buy things every day. I knew the boss wouldn't come yesterday, so I didn't come to town."
…
While the customers were talking, Chen Wang and his companion had already opened the lid of the barrel.
The enticing fragrance spread immediately.
“Here it comes, this is the taste.”
"Now I feel hungry if I don't eat for a day!"
"It's the same, except it's too expensive. If I keep eating like this, I'll be broke. What should I do?"
"I tried to catch some of the stuff from the river and make it myself, but I couldn't get it to taste this good. It's just too far away."
"Nonsense, they have their own exclusive recipe. Didn't you see those stalls that imitated them a while ago? They all suffered a lot of losses."
…
They have been selling lobsters for more than half a month, and now Chen Wang and his partner have cooperated very well.
Chen Wang is responsible for communicating with customers and collecting and giving change, while Chen Dazhuang is responsible for packing and weighing the lobsters and then handing them to Chen Wang to pass on to the customers.
In addition, the lobsters are prepared in advance, so the food can be served very quickly.
"Come on, come on, crayfish are on sale for 1.5 yuan per pound!!!"
Suddenly, a shout came from not far away.
Including Chen Wang and Chen Dazhuang, everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a middle-aged couple not far away. They had two stainless steel buckets in front of them and were shouting loudly to attract customers.
"Fuck, someone is trying to steal our business again."
Chen Dazhuang frowned and swore.
