Chapter 951 Oily fish pretending to be salmon (7000 words)(2/3)

What he wants to buy most are some small appliances, but he already has everything at home. He just saw a semi-automatic single-tub washing machine, and he actually wants to buy it. It only costs more than four hundred yuan, but it requires

Industrial votes, he has no industrial votes.

I bought a brooch for his mother. It will get cold soon and it will be just right for her to show off. Just put it on her chest. She will definitely like it.

Of course his wife must have one too.

His father also had a few pairs of cashmere socks and two towels in his hands. Although he didn't want to buy anything, he couldn't really bring nothing. He had already come and he could say it when he went back. This was saving money.

I bought it in the city and it has a shiny face.

Ye Yaodong also had it on his hand. His towel had several holes in it.

I heard that the old lady's towels were even more torn than his, and they were all torn apart, but she put them all in her room so that no one could see them...

The five of them all went in and out together, and most of the things they bought were not much different.

You think it’s good, I think it’s good too, let’s buy it together.

He and A Guang also bought a calculator each. They have to settle accounts every three days. They happened to see it, so they bought one. It was convenient.

The main thing is that he doesn't know how to use an abacus. For a more powerful person, he may find it easier to use an abacus.

"It's a pity that I arrived too late today. I didn't even go shopping for a while before getting off work. I really mean getting off work right after get off work."

"Anyway, I've been here before. It's good to have a look. Next time I have a chance, I'll go to other streets to look around."

"I also want to go to the farmer's market and see if there are many people selling vegetables and goods."

"It has to be early in the morning. Before dawn, the farmer's market will probably be full of people."

"Then let's get up early in the morning? Come over here at three o'clock and have a look. After seeing the excitement, it will probably be daybreak, so we can go back directly?"

"Okay, we're here anyway, so let's get up early and take another look."

They walked to the guest house while discussing their arrangements for tomorrow. Anyway, they didn't plan to go anywhere at night. When they got back, they would take a bath, rest for a while, and go to bed early.

It's chaotic during the day these days, let alone at night. For your own personal safety, it's best not to go out after dark. Generally, people who go out for a walk after dark are not good people.

The sun has also set, and as they walk on the road, their shadows are stretched out.

Ye Yaodong held an armful of things in one hand and a wig in the other, spinning it around in his hands.

Father Ye couldn't help but said, "Can you please stop turning around? People who don't know would think you are turning heads."

"Ah? Do you want it to be so scary?"

Father Pei also smiled and said: "It does look similar. You didn't look at the people around you who stared wide-eyed, and then breathed a sigh of relief."

"Isn't it rare for someone to have so much money to buy this thing?" Father Ye continued angrily.

"Okay."

Ye Yaodong directly put the wig on the top of his head, and walked swaggering without paying attention to the eyes of passers-by. This way, he took one less thing.

Other fellow travelers couldn't help but shake their heads when they saw it.

Even the receptionist at the guest house opened his mouth in surprise when he saw him, and then looked at him a few more times.

It's quite convenient for the five of them to share a large berth. They don't have to squeeze in with others, and they can take care of each other even if they sleep together.

After arriving in the room, they dragged out the luggage and the lockbox that were lying under the bed, opened them each, and sorted out the things they bought.

Ye Yaodong was the one who bought the most. He didn’t know what to buy. When he saw what others were buying, he thought it was suitable and followed them.

Originally, the lockbox only contained his set of clothes, and it was light and empty. However, it was filled with the things he bought in an instant, and it was just enough.

The five of them had been up since three o'clock in the morning. After sitting on the tractor all day, their buttocks were cracked by the jolts and their bones were about to fall apart. They had not rested today, so their excitement had sustained them until now.

.

Each spent two cents to get a basin of hot water, and after a simple wash, he lay down and snored one after another.

Even the sounds of people walking back and forth in the corridor and talking were not affected by them.

The sun had just set. They went to bed so early. There was probably no one else in the guest house. Fortunately, they had just eaten and didn't need to finish their meal.

At three o'clock in the morning, they all woke up on their own initiative and full of energy.

They are all people who are accustomed to working. They can fall asleep whenever they want, and wake up immediately when it is time to wake up.

However, it was still dark outside, and they didn't say they would pack their luggage and leave immediately. They just planned to follow the tractor to the farmer's market to have a look, then come back before leaving.

In the dark night, the moonlight illuminates the streets. Only the current street has street lights. On the way to the farmer's market, half of the roads have no street lights, so we can only rely on flashlights to illuminate the way forward.

There wasn't even a ghost on the road. It wasn't until they were approaching the farmer's market that they saw some country farmers carrying burdens and pushing carts on some small roads.

As we got closer to the farmer's market, there were more and more people carrying burdens and pushing carts, and they were all densely packed. They all came from the countryside early in the morning, and some of them were sweating profusely. It was only early in the morning, and the temperature was still low.

I don’t know how many miles I walked.

When they parked the car on the side of the road and got out of the car, Ye Yaodong happened to see a tractor passing by them, and the water on the tractor kept flowing.

He sniffed the remaining smell in the air, "Is that cart a seafood? It smells fresh."

"I don't know where it came from. There is so much water that the ice has melted."

“As long as it’s fresh.”

"There are a lot of people around, more and more. Has the morning market started?"

"Let's just take a walk and go home after shopping. After all, we are also people who have inspected the market."

The two of them walked arm in arm.

Father Ye called from behind and called the two of them to come back after shopping for a while. Don’t get too involved in shopping and pay attention to the time.

Ye Yaodong stretched out his hand and raised it behind their back.

The tractor that just passed by didn't move very far because there were people in front of it, so they found an empty space on the roadside and stopped directly, and kept carrying baskets from the vehicle down, still talking.

Shouting.

"Fish is sold, fish is sold, salmon is sold cheaply..."

“Salmon is on sale...if you’re passing by, don’t miss it.”

"It's free to take a look, it's guaranteed to be fresh, and the ice hasn't even melted yet..."

Originally, the two of them just planned to stroll around and were not interested in the fish seller, but the shouting really attracted them.

"Salmon? Are there salmon here?" Ye Yaodong asked doubtfully.

Although he couldn't understand the local dialect, he could still understand the fish's name.

"What do you mean? No salmon?"

"Of course, this is a cold-water fish that likes to live in cool seawater. It is a fish that lives in the north. However, in September and October, salmon will go to freshwater rivers to spawn.

, but will it go to the south?”

You must know that there is no cold chain transportation now, local specialties are consumed locally, and the travel expenses are not enough to send them such a long distance.

A Guang had only been a fisherman for a year or two and didn't understand these things. He listened to him blankly and only said, "Let's go and take a look?"

"Go and have a look."

"30 cents per pound, 30 cents per pound, salmon is sold cheaply, 30 cents per catty, such a big deep-sea fish is sold cheaply..."

Many people have been attracted by the shouting. The attraction of tractors is still very strong. There are really no people who directly drive tractors to sell fish. At most, there are a few pushing carts and shouting.

These baskets were placed all over the floor. There were so many of them, and they were quite attractive.

In ordinary people's thinking, the greater the quantity, the cheaper it must be, just like wholesale.

"How much does such a big fish cost 30 cents per pound?" a local asked curiously.

In this era, no matter where you are, as long as you are an employee, you have a lot of money. What's more, there are many units in provincial cities, and of course there are many employees, and their purchasing power is also strong, so you are afraid of running out of things to buy.

The woman who asked the question was well-dressed and her face was smeared with makeup. It was obvious from a glance that her family conditions were not bad.

"Yes, it's only 30 cents a pound. There is no shop like this after passing this village. This is a deep-sea fish with a very good taste. You can look at the eyes and gills. They are all still very fresh."

"It looks quite fresh..."

"It's quite cheap, only 30 cents per pound. In the past, such a big fish cost 70 or 80 cents."

"Yes, yes, there were too many goods, so we dealt with them cheaply and sold them at a loss. There was no such store after this village. Everyone hurriedly grabbed them. That's all, they are sold out."

"Weigh a smaller one for me..."

"I also want a smaller one..."

Ye Yaodong listened to the people around him talking and grabbing goods. Standing behind him, he didn't see the baskets of goods on the ground, but he saw the things that had not been carried on the tractor.

How can this Tama be a salmon? This is obviously an oily fish.

I have always heard that some people pass off oily fish as salmon or cod, but I didn’t expect to see him in person.

He just said, where do the salmon come from in the south these days?

Damn salmon.

A Guang also echoed without knowing why, "It's indeed quite cheap. It's only 30 cents per pound and it's still retail. I drive a tractor here and sell it. I don't know if I can make gas money."
