Sea intestine rice noodles can fully retain the freshness of sea intestines. Adding them to stir-fried dishes will make them much fresher than adding oyster sauce.
What is the price of sea sausage and oyster sauce?
After having an idea in her mind, Song Shiwei was no longer panicked. After filling the bucket, she carried the bucket back.
When the sisters-in-law saw that she really brought back a bucket of this stuff, they couldn't help but feel curious.
"Weiwei, why did you pick up so many of these things?"
Song Shi smiled and said, "This thing is edible!"
When the sisters-in-law heard her say it was edible, their reactions were similar to those of Sun Meimei and the others.
"Ah? This thing is edible?"
"It looks so ugly, but it's edible?"
"No, no, it looks like an earthworm, I won't eat it!"
One of the sisters-in-law picked up one end of the sea cucumber, but it fell to the other end like a balloon filled with water.
She swallowed with some difficulty and put it back into Song Shiwei's bucket.
"This thing makes me uncomfortable just looking at it, don't even think about letting me eat it!"
Song Shiwei put the bucket back into the house and brought out another empty bucket.
This time she also put scissors and chopsticks, as well as a scale and a weight in the bucket. When the sisters-in-law saw her carrying the bucket to pick sea cucumbers again, they couldn't help but shake their heads.
"Hey, only Wei Wei dares to eat this thing!"
Song Shiwei carried the bucket all the way to the beach. This time she didn't pick up the seafood directly, but found a villager who was looking for seafood.
"Brother, are you here to catch fish?"
The older man nodded. "Yeah, I was thinking that after this downpour, some goodies would wash up on the beach, but who would have thought it would be all this stuff! It's inedible, ugly, and slimy, and it's disgusting just to look at! What bad luck!"
Hearing his evaluation of sea cucumber, she couldn't help but smile.
"So, how was your harvest today, big brother?"
The man lifted the bucket and showed it to her.
"Look, I only caught a few small fish, barely enough to fill my stomach!"
Song Shiwei stretched his head to take a look, and sure enough, there were only a few small fish as thick as fingers, with not much meat on them.
"Big Brother, would you be willing to help me pick up this sea cucumber? I'll pay you!"
When that person heard this, he looked at Song Shiwei as if he were a fool, with disbelief in his eyes.
"What? You want us to help you pick up these sea cucumbers? And you're paying us? Little girl, are you okay?"
Song Shiwei laughed a little.
"I'm fine, big brother. These sea cucumbers may be useless to you, but I do have some! Do you think you'd like to do it? But I want the prepared sea cucumbers! I'll give you ten cents per pound! What do you think?"
The man was still in shock. "One cent?"
The outstretched hands were shaking unconsciously.
"Little girl, are you sure you want to give us ten cents per pound?"
Seeing his face full of disbelief, Song Shiwei smiled, squatted down, picked up a sea cucumber, neatly cut off the two ends with scissors, then squeezed out the internal organs and water, quickly turned it over with chopsticks, and rinsed it clean.
Holding the thin layer of skin in her hand, she smiled at him and said, "I want to buy processed ones like this, one pound for one cent! Do you want to do it?"
The man looked at the sea sausage skin in her hand, blinked, and when he realized what was happening, his face suddenly showed ecstasy.
"Go, go, go! Of course I'm willing to do it!!"
As he was about to go pick up sea cucumbers, Song Shiwei hurriedly stopped him: "Brother, could you please go back to the village and ask if there are other people who want to do it together? If you find someone to help me pick up sea cucumbers, I will give you two cents!"
The man was obviously happier when he heard this.
He patted his chest and assured Song Shiwei.
"No problem, leave it to me! I'll find someone for you right now!"
Find someone to share the points with! Of course he is willing!
As expected, money makes the world go round, and Song Shiwei only waited for about five or six minutes.
A group of people came, at least forty or fifty of them, young and old, strong laborers in the village, and women who had nothing to do at home.
"Little girl, I heard from Da Niu's dad that you want to pick up some sea cucumbers, right? I'll give you 20 cents per pound."
"That's right, little girl, you can't bluff me with that! Are you really going to give me money?"
"If you pay us, we'll do it!"
"That's right, it's like I found it for free, why not do it?"
Everyone was talking at once, and Song Shiwei quickly clapped his hands to quiet everyone down.
"Everyone, you've heard of me. I do buy sea cucumbers, and they do sell for 20 cents per pound, but I have to process them properly. Now I'm going to demonstrate to you my standard for buying sea cucumbers!"
As she spoke, she took a sea cucumber and, just like she had demonstrated to the big brother just now, cut off both ends with scissors, squeezed out the internal organs and water, then turned the sea cucumber over with chopsticks and rinsed it clean!
Pointing at the sea cucumber skins in his hand, he said to everyone, "See this? I want this, 20 cents a pound! If you're willing, go pick them up. When you're done, come to me to weigh them and get paid!"
Hearing her words, those people were overjoyed.
"This is full of stuff, all over the beach. It's a piece of cake to pick up. 20 cents a pound. I need to go pick it up quickly!"
"Me too. I'm just sitting around doing nothing anyway, so I might as well make some money! It's not a big deal!"
Some people came with their whole family, and some who heard the noise also ran over to see what was going on. After asking, they also joined the sea cucumber picking team.
The big brother from before came over with a smile.
"Little girl, do you think I've found enough people for you? I just finished. I found you fifty-six people in total. Do you have to give me one dollar and twelve cents?"
Song Shi smiled and nodded: "Of course I will keep my word, I won't give you anything less!"
As he said that, he took out one dollar and two cents from his pocket and handed it to him.
"Brother, this is your hard work fee! The extra few cents are just a thank you for helping me!"
Seeing how generous she was, the man was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling.
"Okay, okay, little girl, thank you! If you have such a good thing in the future, please remember me. My home is in Likou Village, four or five miles ahead! My name is Li Dazhuang!"
In fact, during this period, Song Shiwei also looked at him carefully. This man was very efficient. He found people for her so quickly when she asked him to. Moreover, he was a very honest person. He didn't even charge for the seven or eight-year-old children he found.
If it were up to that kind of shrewd and calculating person, not to mention a child of seven or eight years old who can do farm work, even a baby of four or five years old who can pick up things, he can count them in!
"Don't worry, if I need you, I'll send someone to find you!"
When Li Dazhuang heard this, he immediately picked up the bucket and went to pick up sea cucumbers happily.
With the addition of more than fifty people, Song Shiwei filled his bucket, found a stone to sit down and started to clean up the sea cucumbers.
The beach was densely packed with sea cucumbers, and even with so many people picking them up, it still looked like a huge project.
Those families began to divide the work and cooperate, with men responsible for picking up and women responsible for putting away.
Someone else carried a large basin and put all the cleaned sea cucumbers into it.
