Chapter 3522 Returning with a Full Load (Part 2)
After the monkey left, Lu Xiaoxiao walked towards the beach. When she arrived at the beach, the boat happened to be parked on the beach, so Lu Xiaoxiao stood there quietly waiting for people to get off the boat.
"Hey, why are you here?" After Xu Dayu jumped off the boat, he saw Lu Xiaoxiao, so he asked Lu Xiaoxiao.
"I'm here to buy seafood. Did you catch any fish today?"
"I did catch some fish, but not much. I did catch a lot of shrimp, but my family and I don't like to eat them, and I can't sell them at a high price, so I usually take them home to feed the chickens and pigs."
When Lu Xiaoxiao heard what Xu Dayu said, the corners of her mouth twitched. It was the first time she saw someone using shrimps to feed chickens and pigs. It was such a waste.
So she asked Xu Dayu, "How much do you sell your shrimps for per pound?"
"If you want, it's ten cents a pound."
"Okay, I want all your shrimps, and I want the other seafood too. Now take the things down."
After hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, Xu Dayu thought he had heard it wrong, so he said to Lu Xiaoxiao: "Say what you just said again."
"I said I bought all the seafood from your house."
"Are you sure you want them all?"
"Of course, but you need to find something to help me pack the seafood."
"No problem, just wait, I'll help you load the seafood now." After Xu Dayu finished speaking, Niu climbed towards the boat.
Half an hour later, Xu Dayu came down from the boat with two large sacks. He said to Lu Xiaoxiao, "This sack contains fish, and the other sack contains shrimp. You can open them and take a look."
After hearing what Xu Dayu said, Lu Xiaoxiao nodded, and she opened the two sacks. Then she saw a large sack of shrimps and a large sack of miscellaneous fish.
So she reached out and grabbed a few shrimps and fish to look at. Seeing that they were very fresh, she said to Xu Dayu, "Put them on the scale."
After hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, Xu Dayu smiled awkwardly and said to Lu Xiaoxiao, "I don't have a scale, but this sack can hold 50 kilograms of food. Can we calculate it based on 50 kilograms?"
"Can."
"Then just give me fifteen dollars."
After hearing the price Xu Dayu quoted, Lu Xiaoxiao asked Xu Dayu, "Are you sure the price you quoted is correct?"
"Of course it's right. Fish is 20 cents per pound, so 50 pounds is 10 yuan. Shrimp is 10 cents per pound, so 50 pounds is 5 yuan. So the total is 15 yuan, which is correct."
After hearing what Xu Dayu said, Lu Xiaoxiao took out fifteen yuan from her bag and handed it to Xu Dayu, then asked Xu Dayu, "Can you help me collect shrimps and fish? Don't worry, I won't let you help for nothing. I'll pay you five yuan."
"I don't want your wages. You have already helped my family a lot by buying my seafood today."
"No, let's be fair. If you don't accept my payment, I won't let you help me."
After hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, Xu Dayu knew that he had to collect the wages for today, so he said to Lu Xiaoxiao: "Okay, I'll take the wages, and tell me how much seafood you want?"
"Take as much as you can."
"Are you sure? You can't keep this thing. If it breaks, you'll lose money."
"Don't worry. Since I dare to let you take them, I won't let them go bad. So don't be lenient and take as many as you can."
