Chapter 262



After giving Gu Qinghuan RMB 3.2, Chen Fengqin and her mother and a few others made a net profit of RMB 10 today.

You have to know that this has no cost at all, it just takes some labor, and there is no labor share.

The three of them went to work to earn work points, but they could only earn more than 20 work points a day. Even if each work point was 1 cent, it would only be two or three yuan at most, and it would make them exhausted.

Catching loaches is not a tiring job, it just tests your speed.

On the way back, the three mothers and daughters had smiles on their faces. They were happier than during Chinese New Year. They planned to go catch loaches in the evening. It would be best if they could catch more yellow eels, which are more valuable.

Chen Fengqin warned the children that this matter must be kept secret.

She knew that Gu Qinghuan was taking care of them, after all, he hadn't even told her in-laws.

If the fact that they were selling loach got known to others, not only would their business be ruined, but it would also be difficult for Gu Qinghuan to trust them again.

The children also understood the intricacies of this and nodded repeatedly to indicate that they would not reveal it.

If anyone asked, they would just say they caught some loaches for themselves and that they hadn’t had meat at home for a while and were craving for it!

Fortunately, not many people in Xujiatun know about this, so there is not much competition.

If they work harder, they might even be able to earn some money as a betrothal gift to the boss.

The family is full of fighting spirit.

Gu Qinghuan was never idle that night.

After seeing Chen Fengqin off, Zhu Chunlin came over shortly after, carrying two buckets.

I don't know where he caught them, it seems he poked a yellow eel's nest, there was a bucket full of yellow eels and a bucket of loach.

There were many gossipy people in the Youth Farm, so he didn't dare to take the things back. He hid in the woods outside and didn't dare to come out until dark.

"Zhu Bozhi, you have disturbed the nest of yellow eels. There are so many of them?"

It was really a blessing in disguise. Chen Fengqin's family searched for a whole day to get such a bucket, but they didn't expect that Zhu Chunlin caught a bucket of yellow mullets by himself.

God loves simple people.

"Hehe, I caught them on the beach. Normally, no one catches these to eat. The beach is full of holes, and I caught so many of them by accident!" Zhu Chunlin laughed.

Gu Qinghuan weighed him as usual.

"This bucket of yellow eels weighs 22 jin, loach 20 jin, and yesterday's half bucket of loach weighs 15 jin.

By the way, I forgot to tell you the price yesterday. Yellow eel is more expensive, 50 cents per pound, while loach is cheaper, 25 cents per pound.

All this comes to 10.5 yuan."

"What?" Zhu Chunlin screamed in shock, startling the children in the room. They ran over and asked, "Mom, what's wrong?"

Only after Gu Qinghuan calmed them down did Zhu Chunlin come back to his senses.

Outside the door, Ji Linhai was carrying a heavy load and was about to deliver it to Gu Qinghuan. When he heard the noise, he was about to rush in because Gu Qinghuan was in trouble.

Later, I heard her soothing the children and realized that everything was fine.

In order to prevent others from knowing that Gu Qinghuan was close to him, he chose to hide behind the house and wait until Gu Qinghuan was done with his work before coming in.

"I'm sorry, did I just scare the kids? The truth is... this price is too high. I never knew loach could be so expensive." Zhu Chunlin felt like he had missed out on 100 million.

"This is also due to some special reasons. Anyway, don't ask too many questions and just focus on making money.

Don't slack off during this period of time. It's better to catch more yellow eels than to spend a whole day to earn a few work points.

Just tell others that you are planning to build a new house using adobe bricks, and no one will suspect anything.

"Make more money and save it while you can now. The baby is coming soon and there are many ways to save money at home. You and Shengnan will have an easier life." Gu Qinghuan advised.

"Thank you, thank you for thinking of us with such a good opportunity." Zhu Chunlin was not an ignorant person. He knew that the other person was really helping them, so he thanked him sincerely.

Gu Qinghuan counted a few dozen yuan and handed it over.

Zhu Chunlin was so simple-minded that he only kept 10 yuan and 5 cents and directly returned 10 yuan to Gu Qinghuan.

"We'll split it in half."

Gu Qinghuan wiped his brow and sighed helplessly, urging him to take it back, using what he had said to Chen Fengqin.

"I get kickbacks from other people when I sell things to you. This belongs to you."

"How can that be? We agreed to split it in half. If you don't accept it, Shengnan will blame me when we get back."

Zhu Chunlin insisted on giving it to her, but since it was difficult to stuff it on his body, he just put it on her. Then he grabbed his own bucket and ran out, running faster than a rabbit.

When he came over, Lin Shengnan had already told him that it must be split in half.

Gu Qinghuan had already given them a lot of things before, so they must not take advantage of others in this matter.

Gu Qinghuan was speechless. This fool was quite stubborn. Lin Shengnan was really lucky to be so obedient.

It was late at night, and she didn't want to chase him. She would return the money to Lin Shengnan later, or use the money to prepare some daily necessities for them.

The last time I went to the educated youth site, I saw that they had a lot of immoral things and needed to buy everything for their home.

Thinking of this, Gu Qinghuan put the money away, secretly planning to write it down.

Just as Zhu Chunlin left, the courtyard welcomed the third guest of the day.

Ji Linhai came in carrying a bucket. The bucket he carried was not an ordinary bucket, but the largest bucket in the entire village.

The labor reform was not just talk. His usual labor tasks were the heaviest in the village. Others carried ordinary buckets, but he carried the largest buckets. These were all basic operations.

"The stuff in these two barrels is from your mother. The ones I caught today are still in the cowshed. I'll go there again later.

She said the tool you gave her was very good and she caught a lot today.

I originally wanted to go and take a look, but I didn't expect she had caught so many, so I picked some for you first.

I have to go back to accompany her later. Looking at her attitude, I'm afraid she won't be able to sleep tonight." Ji Linhai put down the challenge and said helplessly.

What should I do if my target is obsessed with money?

I can only accompany you!

Gu Qinghuan went to give Zhong Jun batteries and tools this morning. The tools for catching loaches were bought at a vending machine, and he didn't know if they were any good.

Unexpectedly, this guy's tool was quite useful. Zhong and his friends caught two large buckets of these in just one day.

She had planned to check it out later, but she didn't expect Ji Linhai to be so considerate and had already helped to deliver it.

That's great, it saves her the trouble.

"Uncle Ji, thank you for your hard work!" To be honest, Ji Linhai is a really nice person, especially to Zhong Jun, he is really close to him.

He may never say love, but he really shows love everywhere.

Loving someone is hidden in the details of life.

Pay attention to Zhong's chapped face and give her clam cream. Take some time to help her with work so that she can rest. Stand behind her and support her with actions. This is better than saying "you have worked hard" ten thousand times!

If someone could understand the pain in your heart, it would automatically be reduced.

What really touches people is never the cheesy love words or expensive gifts, but the subconscious thoughts, the compassion in the eyes, the invisible and communicable souls, and the peace that others cannot give.

Maybe God loves simple people. After being a fool for half his life, Mr. Zhong finally found someone who understands his feelings.

Gu Qinghuan used to never think that a partner was important. If the partner was right for her, she would love him/her. If not, she would live alone for the rest of her life, which was also very cool.

But at this moment, she suddenly understood the meaning of a partner.

A person may not have children, but he cannot be without people who understand and love him.

After all, children only occupy a part of life. They will eventually grow up and have their own lives. In the end, only your partner will accompany you through old age.

A good partner can reduce half of the sufferings in the world.

As a girl, Gu Qinghuan suddenly realized that people will have many things that they cannot control after they become adults. They have their own life and their own journey.

The company and help she could give to Zhong Jun was too little. Apart from occasionally greeting him and sending him money and supplies, there was really nothing else she could do.

How many children here can stay with their parents all their lives?

So, it is a good thing that Mr. Zhong has a good partner.

Gu Qinghuan was grateful to Ji Linhai in his eyes for doing things that he could not do.

"It's not hard, your mother is worth it." Ji Linhai's face was slightly hot.

He is not a particularly expressive person, he just silently expresses his feelings through his actions, but he wants to tell his future stepdaughter that he doesn't think it's a big deal to do these things, because Zhong Dongjun is worth it and she is very good.

Gu Qinghuan was unexpectedly fed a mouthful of dog food again, and it was the dog food that came from middle-aged and elderly people.

I don't even know how to reply.

Uncle Ji, why are you so direct?

Fortunately, Ji Linhai left after he finished speaking. A few minutes later, he came back with two buckets of goods, which he had caught.

The two men discussed that they had to bring the bucket, otherwise they would have nowhere to put the loach and yellow eel they caught tonight.

Gu Qinghuan searched around in his house and finally found a large abandoned stone vat behind the eaves. He didn't know what it was filled with, as it was already covered with moss.

The two men were both very strong and together they carried it into the yard, cleaned it, and then loaded the goods.

Friendship is friendship, and business is business.

Ji Linhai asked her to weigh the goods together and give all the money to Zhong Dongjun, but Gu Qinghuan insisted on weighing the goods for both of them separately.

She knew Zhong 떚君, and she would not accept Ji Linhai's money.

Mr. Zhong's two barrels of goods, 20 catties of loach and 25 catties of yellow eel, totaled 15 yuan.

Among Ji Linhai's goods, there were fewer yellow eels, a total of 15 kilograms of yellow eels and 20 kilograms of loach.

Zhong Dongjun is a family of three, so they have more goods. It is also quite good that Ji Linhai can find time to get so many goods by himself. The total amount is 12.5 yuan.

Gu Qinghuan gave the money that belonged to Ji Linhai directly to him. Seeing that she was determined to give it, Ji Linhai had no choice but to accept it.

However, he and Zhu Chunlin agreed that the money should be split in half, after all, this was Gu Qinghuan's channel.

Gu Qinghuan was not so defensive towards Ji Linhai, and told him directly that he didn't need that much and asked him to accept it.

Ji Linhai now needs money more.

Ji Linhai understood what she meant, and finally accepted the ten yuan with some persuasion, saying that the remaining two and a half yuan was for Gu Qinghuan to buy candy for the two children.

Gu Qinghuan used to be a very decisive person, but since he came to this era, he has often been pushed around for money, and sometimes he even has to lie, which is really tiring.

Who made us all poor now? Let's work hard to help everyone make money first!

Ji Linhai took the money and quickly picked up the bucket and left. He had to help Zhong Dongjun. In the middle of the night, a woman was catching loaches in the fields, and he would not let her go.

When he left, Zhong Jun had someone to accompany him, so Gu Qinghuan was let go.
