Chapter 452: Get the price first (two chapters combined into one)(1/2)

The villagers were so envious when they saw him netting seventy or eighty kilograms of scallops casually for only a few hours. No wonder that old Wang wanted to steal them.

Everyone is a little worried whether the ones he pulls into his arms are all shells. After all, the ones he nets are real and alive, so aren't the rest just shells?

That is to say, there are too many people and too many shells. It is impossible to pick them one by one slowly. In the time it takes to pick, the people next to you have already hugged a sack.

Ye Yaodong looked at the heavy fishing net in his hand. The scallops inside were crowded and piled up in the middle, and he felt very happy in his heart.

He just watched the scallops running into the sea and felt it was a pity. Then he had an idea and decided to try pulling out two fishing nets.

Anyway, he didn't know how to work for nothing, so he could only net a little less, but he didn't expect that beyond his expectation, when the fishing net with a diameter of less than 10 meters was spread out, it could actually net a net of 70 to 80 kilograms.

Earned it.

He grinned happily, and he and his father put the net closer to the middle, and their ears were filled with the envious comments of the villagers.

The net that several of his friends nearby had helped to collect had already been collected first. They worked together, one person grabbed a corner and carried it towards him.

"Should the fishing nets be put on the cart together with the scallops? Do you want to pour them out first?" Aguang asked.

"No need to pour it out, just put the fishing net and the scallops on the trolley, wait for us to push it back, and then pour it out and sort it out."

As Ye Yaodong spoke, he stretched his neck and took a look at the goods in their fishing net. There were quite a lot of them, and they should be similar to what was in his net.

He had gone into the water earlier and fished out half a sack. This morning, at least he had fished out more than one sack.

Although the villagers looked at the sacks, there were quite a lot of scallops in them. Maybe if they picked through the sacks, they might not find as many scallops as he brought with these two nets.

The hard work is really not in vain, there are four rows of ground cages on the shore, so I can net more nets as little as possible.

"You're really good, Dongzi. Everyone is there desperately pulling out shells. It would be better for you to put the net into the water first and catch the live ones."

"That's right, what time did you get up at this time? We are the ones who live on the beach and were the first to discover it, right?"

"You probably don't have too many shells, right?"

"You must have picked up a lot of fish, right? I heard everyone said that they came early and picked up a lot of big fish at the beach. You are right at your doorstep."

"Yeah, how many fish were picked up? What are they? I heard that someone just picked up a rat spot."

After they put the fishing nets on the cart, they gathered around and asked questions.

The surrounding villagers were also talking there, and I don’t know who said something, saying that they caught a lot of fish last night when there was a typhoon and big waves.

Now the villagers asked again one after another.

"Is it true? I heard someone said that during the typhoon last night, a lot of fish were blown ashore, and several households on your beach came out to pick them up?"

"Really? Are you so brave that you still come out during a typhoon?"

"I heard that the waves brought up all the fish, and the typhoon blew there again, and the fish were like dumplings..."

"Isn't that too exaggerated?"

The fat man was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth. He asked Ye Yaodong again: "Really? It's just like making dumplings. Isn't this nonsense?"

Xiaoxiao touched his chin, looked at the scallops in the bowl and thought, "It's possible. Look, the waves have rolled up all kinds of shells and pushed them to the seaside. They have piled up a white coastline. Rolling up the fish in the sea

Come up, what does it matter?"

Ye Yaodong and his father collected the fishing nets together and then lifted them onto the trolley. He replied casually, "I started setting out the nets when I came out in the morning. It's not too late for everyone. People came out to watch the tide just after dawn, and then one after another

One person continued to spread the word to ten, and ten spread to a hundred, and the number of people increased."

Father Ye also said: "Everyone has a lot of bags, so let's give it... let's give it..."

"So did you really go out to pick up fish during the typhoon last night? Did you really make dumplings?"

"More than just dumplings, I almost sacrificed them to the Sea Dragon King."

"ah?"

"Give me a moment, I don't have time to go into details now. You go ask other people." He was busy and had no time to stand there and chat. "You just pile your things there without fear of being stolen. Go back and guard them quickly."

Keep it alive, otherwise it will be moved away secretly and you won’t have anywhere to look for it.”

Some people saw their family members pushing carts and ran over to them. Some people were afraid that someone would steal their things, so they went back to guard them. Only the people around them were still standing there.

When they turned to look at his goods, Ye Yaodong saw that some people had already left, so he pushed the cart directly towards the wide gap, walked towards his home, and greeted his friends.

"Thank you. I'll push it back first. If you want to use a cart, you can come over and push it later."

"I just want to borrow it from somewhere, I'll go with you." Ah Zheng said quickly.

"Then who looks after your things?"

"My father, my mother has gone to borrow a scooter from my sisters. I don't know when I can borrow it. You should be faster here."

"Okay."

Anyway, after taking his things back, he still needs to sort them out and package them before he can sell them.

Seeing that he was busy, the others didn't ask any further questions. Only Ah Zheng wanted to use the cart, so they followed him back.

The two of them were walking and chatting. Ye Yaodong also told him about the typhoon last night and how they took the risk to pick up fish. Azheng was surprised and envious at the same time.

"You can really spot the opportunity to make a fortune. So what happened to your elder brother?"

"I was so scared that I went home. He didn't come out after that, so we were there to pick him up."

"Danger comes with opportunity. The higher the risk, the greater the reward. Fortunately, typhoons and big waves didn't blow away your house."

"I'm just talking nonsense. They're all stone houses. How can they be blown away? It's possible that the roof could be blown away."

Ye Yaodong pushed the trolley to the door of his house and asked his father to take away the tail baffle, then lifted the handles on both sides to stand the trolley up. The scallops and fishing nets on top instantly slid to the ground with a clatter.

"Give it back to me right away after you use it. I still have to sell it."

"knew."

Mother Ye was also surprised when she saw the scallops all over the ground, "How many hours have you put your fishing net there? Since you have received so many goods?"

Others also came over to take a look and were also surprised.

"There are quite a lot of them? These scallops can really run away..."

Sister-in-law Ye couldn't help but worry, "If you are so alive and can run, then what we bring back are all shells?"

Sister-in-law Ye suddenly frowned and patted her thigh, "Oh, I was just wondering why there are a bunch of shells after picking out half the bag? The meaty ones are just a thin layer under the bamboo basket."

Mother Ye glanced at the pile of shells piled on the ground next to her. The basins, baskets and other containers also contained various shellfish and clams picked out by the children.

The scallops were indeed only spread on a thin layer under the bamboo basket, and the other basket on the side had more oyster shells than scallops.

"Hey, why do you have so few scallops? The scallops I have are half and half empty shells. No wonder I just heard you keep saying they were all shells."

Ye Yaodong took off his wet pants and was only wearing a vest and shorts. He stepped forward and took a look and said, "Did the bag you poured out come from the back? Maybe there will be less meaty ones from the back, and there will be less meat from the front.

It's fast, and the scallops run less, but a little more."

After listening to this explanation, everyone felt that it seemed quite reasonable. Everything that could run away had run away, and the empty shells that couldn't run away were just piled up there.

Sister-in-law Ye didn't know when she picked up the bag she was picking now, so she could only continue picking in depression.

Mother Ye also consoled her: "Let's take a look after you finish picking. After all, your work is not in vain. It only took three hours to pick out so many things. These few bags can be sold for a lot of money after picking, so you can make a profit."

"

Sister-in-law Ye couldn't help but said: "It's just that you picked up so many fish last night. Those baskets can be sold for a lot of money, but we don't have them yet."

She was also very regretful and uncomfortable. Seeing that everyone had picked up so many goods last night, but their family only had one bucket, she felt like a cat scratching her head. She almost ran out to pick it up by herself last night.

When Sister-in-law Ye heard this, her heart immediately became balanced and a smile appeared on her face.

Everything depends on comparison.

Human psychology is like this. I get less, and when I feel sad, I hear less from you. Then I feel comfortable and am immediately comforted.

"Ahua just pushed the fish to the dock. I don't know when it will come back, and I don't know how much it can be sold for."

"It's inevitable, my house doesn't even have half a basket."

The more she talked, the more depressed she became. Sister-in-law Ye simply stopped talking and returned to her pile of shells to continue picking.

As a result, she saw three children taking advantage of her to get up and go to Ye Yaodong's cart to look at scallops. They were laughing and throwing the clams they picked out. You hit me, I hit you, and they had a great time.

But they threw the clams all over the floor, and even hit one on her chest. She immediately became angry. She was already in a bad mood, and these three even hit the muzzle of a gun.

When the three of them realized that they had smashed my mother, they were so frightened that they immediately stood up.

If there were special effects, you would definitely be able to see the raging fire burning behind Mrs. Ye.

Seeing their mother's face suddenly put down, the smiles on their faces instantly turned into fright, their skins tightened involuntarily, and their voices trembled.

"mother……"

"mother……"

"Mom... Ye Chenghe threw it... you hit him..." Ye Chenghai decisively betrayed his brother, and then tried to take a detour and ran in the direction of the old lady.

"Ah, brother, you are not loyal," Ye Chenghe looked at his mother as if she had transformed into a fire-breathing dragon. He shivered in fear and quickly shied away his responsibility, "Mom, you can't blame me. Brother threw it to me first..."

"You're talking nonsense..."

Sister-in-law Ye was so furious that she picked up the bundle of bamboo strips that the old lady had just thrown into the corner.

She will catch whoever runs the fastest.

Ye Chenghai was frightened to death when he saw his mother running towards him, "It's none of my business! It was Ye Chenghe who smashed it."

"Every day you get angry with me. I ask you to do some work without taking it seriously. What's the use of raising you? I can just beat you to death. No one can worry..."
To be continued...
