Hua Xinuo hurriedly took out two large wooden barrels and put the fish in them.
When my parents and two brothers come back, they will definitely be very happy to see these.
"Seeing these fish reminds me of eating grilled fish."
Thinking of this, Hua Xinuo's expression changed.
"It seems that grilled fish didn't exist in this era."
"If this were to open a grilled fish restaurant, business would probably be good, right?"
Hua Xinuo had this idea, but she knew that if she wanted to open a grilled fish restaurant, she would first need money to buy and decorate the store.
The cost is not cheap.
So this cannot be considered for the time being.
Hua Xinuo's expression changed, and she got a few small fish and put them in the pond in the small courtyard.
In this way, when the fish grows to several kilograms and is sold at around ten kilograms, the price will be higher.
When the time comes, we can take it out of the courtyard pond and say it was salvaged, and it won’t arouse suspicion.
Hua Xinuo continued to set the traps to catch fish. While setting the traps, she carried a bucket of water to the dock.
It was almost noon and there were more people at the dock.
Hua Xinuo stayed near her own boat so that she could keep an eye on it at any time and also sell fish.
"Fish for sale! Freshly caught fish, cheap prices, no cheating!"
"Beautiful sister, do you want to buy fish?"
Seeing a young woman who was dressed very elegantly and carrying a basket, it was obvious that she was here to buy food, Hua Xinuo hurriedly greeted her.
Such a name was very unusual, and the woman was stunned.
She looked at the little girl in front of her. Although she was dressed simply, she was very clean and looked very cute.
"Girl, where are your family members?"
"My parents are working on the boat, so I come out to help them sell fish."
Hua Xinuo didn't dare to say that her parents were not around.
"Did you just catch this fish?"
"Yes, I just fished it out of the river this morning. It's big and fresh."
If there are no eels in the bucket, the price will be higher when sold to a restaurant.
So there were several big grass carp and black carp in her bucket.
"I heard from the doctor that grass carp can protect the eyes and make hair grow thicker. If beautiful sisters eat it, they will become more beautiful and have whiter skin."
Hua Xinuo spoke in a clear voice, looking cute and likable.
The woman looked happy, and the fish in the bucket were indeed just the right size.
The woman had originally come out to buy ingredients to prepare lunch.
"But can you clean it up?"
When a woman buys fish, she usually asks someone to prepare it for her so she can take it home and cook it.
Hua Xinuo said readily: "Yes!"
"If you want to buy it, beautiful sister, I will pack it for you."
"How much is this fish per pound?"
"Ten cents a pound."
The price is quite good.
The woman chose a big fish.
Hua Xinuo weighed it on a scale and said, "Three catties and two ounces. I'll charge you three catties for you, minus the decimal."
"Beautiful sister, please come buy our fish more often in the future!"
The woman laughed, "You are quite clever, little girl!"
The woman has two sons, and the two are rather naughty. But now, seeing that the little girl is smart and sensible, she likes her more and is willing to take care of her business.
The woman handed thirty coins to Hua Xinuo.
After Hua Xinuo received the money, she took out a knife and started cleaning the fish skillfully.
After cleaning it up, he neatly strung it together with a straw rope to make it easier for the woman to hold.
The woman was stunned by what she saw just now.
The little girl is so skilled in using a knife to handle fish despite her young age.
She couldn't help but sigh, "Children from poor families always grow up early!"
Her eldest son is six years old and very naughty.
Because Hua Xinuo had just weighed the fish so neatly and handled it so uniquely, it attracted passersby.
Several people who wanted to buy fish came over to take a look and ask about it.
Someone thought the fish looked good and bought it.
Hua Xinuo also helped to deal with it.
There were three fish in total, and Hua Xinuo sold out quickly.
She calculated and found that she had earned seventy-six cents.
"If my parents knew, they would be very happy too!"
This is because the fish caught are considered big fish and can be sold at this price.
Fishing boats don't catch fish every day.
Sometimes it is normal to catch a few small fish in a day.
Those small fish, weighing less than one catty, are charged at four cents per catty.
"There should be more fish in the fish cage by now. Let's check later."
As he spoke, Hua Xinuo prepared to carry the bucket onto the boat.
"Nuonuo!"
Hua Xinuo suddenly heard someone calling her.
She looked in the direction of the voice and saw a beautiful woman not far away.
The woman was carrying a basket and looked exhausted.
Hua Xinuo's nose felt sore and her eyes reddened, "Mom!"
She knew this was the body's natural feeling.
Qiu Wenqin ran over quickly and hugged Hua Xinuo.
"Why did you run away, kid?"
"Are you feeling unwell anywhere? Do you have a fever? Are you in any pain?"
Qiu Wenqin asked questions worriedly, looked Hua Xinuo up and down carefully, and even reached out to touch her head.
I was relieved after confirming that she didn't have a fever and was fine.
"You can have a good rest. Let your parents take care of the housework. You are still young, so you should play when you need to play and rest when you need to rest."
Qiu Wenqin looked at her daughter with heartache.
As he spoke, his eyes became red.
"I'm glad you're okay."
Qiu Wenqin felt so useless that she went to her parents' home and gave up her dignity to beg people, but she couldn't borrow even a tael of silver.
They drove her out like a beggar.
