Chapter 63 Harvesting Fish



I'll deliver the fish to the supply and marketing cooperative first thing tomorrow morning, settle the payment, and then hurry to Quanshui Village to pay back the hundred yuan I owe my third sister, so she won't worry.

I also need to buy some good food for my third sister's mother-in-law and Daxia.

In addition, Quanshui Village has a lot of land and wheat, and also a lot of wheatgrass. I asked my third brother-in-law, Hongshui, to help me harvest some wheatgrass seeds...

A few days ago, Pan Dachun promised to pay Li Xiangjie, Liu Gaifeng, and Wang Erhu 90 yuan in compensation for emotional distress, but it has been three or four days and the money has not yet been delivered.

Shouldn't we have someone remind him that he can't back out now?

Lost in thought, I wandered over to the banks of the Three Rivers.

The number of people catching fish today has increased, with some teenagers and a few adults also using nets to catch fish.

All I could hear were cheers and laughter.

The joyful laughter at this moment overlapped with the bitter memories of his past life when, during the wheat harvest, he was caught in a rainstorm and suffered a complete crop failure.

Ah, if only we had a harvester!

The torrential rains of the past are not far off, and if we rely solely on manpower, we won't be able to harvest much.

"Xiangdong, stop standing there, hurry up and come down to catch some fish!"

Water droplets splashed on Li Xiangdong's face, and Li Xiangdong immediately came to his senses.

"Haha, Third Brother, how many fish have you caught?"

"Another one!"

A shimmering white-scaled fish was pulled from the water!

Oh ho!

Judging by appearance, it must weigh at least seven or eight pounds!

"Third Brother, do you want to eat this fish? If not, sell it to me!"

Li Xiangdong thought the fish was of really good quality, and the supply and marketing cooperative would definitely be satisfied.

Third Brother laughed heartily, "What are you selling! Take it and eat! The fish in that big red basin next to you were all caught by me, help yourself!"

Li Xiangdong looked down and saw a large basin for washing clothes, containing six or seven large fish, including carp, chub, and three-scaled fish.

Third Brother came up with the white carp, put them in the basin, and said proudly, "How about it? They're all huge! Take two home and eat them!"

"Third Brother, I'll take all your fish, 15 cents a pound, how about it?"

This fish looks to weigh fifty or sixty pounds. If I buy it, I'll have completed half of my task.

Third Brother hesitated, "You really want to buy them? Why are you buying so many fish?"

"Just leave it alone! Are you selling?"

"Sell!"

These are free. He's skilled; he caught so many in just one morning. If they were 15 cents a pound, he could sell them for seven or eight dollars!

Seven or eight yuan, that's more than ten days' worth of work points he could earn.

"Third brother, could you please take this home for me?"

"No way, I'll go right now!"

Third Brother picked up the big red basin and headed towards the village.

Li Xiangdong strolled along the shore again, saw some good fish, and bought another forty or fifty catties.

Suddenly, a scream was heard!

"Ouch! A giant softshell turtle! It bit my finger!"
