Chapter 187
At noon, everyone had a meal at the purchasing station. It was a simple big pot of seafood noodles, with a few cold side dishes, just enough to make do.
The purchasing station provided lunch, and the rice, flour, oil and grain were from He Xijun's family. She was subsidized 30 yuan for each meal. According to the current price, she would definitely not lose money.
I took a nice nap in the afternoon, and went to the beach for a walk in the evening.
It was a low tide today, the wind and waves were not big, and the tide was good. You can see many villagers going to the beach.
As Chu Yang walked along, many villagers greeted her, all with smiles on their faces.
"Ayang, come to the beach for a walk?"
"Have you eaten, Ayang? Let's go to my aunt's house later?"
"Come on, Ayang, have a cigarette."
Things are different now. Before, when Chu Yang made money at sea, they still talked about it behind his back, after all, they didn't get a penny.
But it's different now. The whole village knows that the biggest boss of the purchasing station is Chu Yang, and everyone is counting on him to make money.
Chu Yang was flattered along the way and was in a good mood.
Of course, he knew very well why the attitudes of these villagers changed so quickly.
As the saying goes, it is easy to change a country, but it is difficult to change one's nature. If he gets unlucky and down and out one day, the flattery of these people now will be as sweet as their ridicule will be sharp.
But that is impossible. In the future, these people are destined to follow Chu Yang's ass and lick him for a few melons and two dates.
After a round, I didn't see any rare good stuff, at most a few kilograms of Dongfeng snails.
Chu Yang resisted the urge to open the treasure chest on the spot. There are so many old women on the beach now. If they open good things, it will be a waste for them.
When he got home, Chu Xi had already prepared the meal.
"Hey, where did the crayfish come from?"
Seeing a plate of red spicy crayfish on the table, Chu Yang asked curiously.
"Grandma Sun gave it to me, saying that Grandpa Sun fished it himself from a deserted pond."
There are several large ponds at the foot of the mountain on the west side of the island. They were dug by a farmer who was deceived by He Baoguo. He planned to raise fish.
But they collapsed within two years because the farmer found that the fish he raised could not be sold at all. People living by the sea are used to eating marine fish and cannot get used to the "earthy smell" of freshwater fish.
After the ponds were abandoned, they were soon overgrown with aquatic plants and became a gathering place for crayfish and crucian carp.
"Did you give it to Grandpa and Grandma?"
Chu Yang broke off a lobster claw and sucked it. It was spicy and numb, and tasted great.
"I took it. Grandpa Sun also brought me a plate of lotus root tips. I will mix it for you to drink tomorrow."
"Okay, great."
Chu Yang reached out and gave the little sister a big thumbs up, but was slapped away by the latter in disdain.
"I'm not a three-year-old kid."
Chu Yang: ...
Seven-year-old kids are not fun at all!
After drinking beer and eating a large plate of lobster, Chu Yang rubbed his stomach and collapsed on the recliner, squinting his eyes and wanting to sleep.
This life is too decadent!
"No, I still have to hurry up and go out to sea, otherwise I will be exhausted."
Took out his mobile phone and checked the weather for the next half month.
There will be rain in some places, and it will basically be sunny and cloudy, so you can go out to sea.
Chu Yang took out his phone and called Sun Qingjun, who agreed immediately after listening.
"Of course, no problem, the sooner you go, the better."
Although there are things to do at the purchasing station, it can't be compared with going out to sea. The net is all white money.
After hanging up the phone, Chu Yang notified Zhang Hongtao and Lin Zijin, as well as the two brothers Sun Qingyun and Sun Qinglei.
Last time, we agreed to take them out to sea with the boat.
"Okay, okay, no problem, we have been waiting at home."
The two brothers have seen the changes in Chu Yang's family. In the past few days, they have set up a purchasing station, and the industry is getting bigger and bigger.
It is estimated that the position of the richest man in Niutoudu will change hands soon.
The departure time is set at 12 o'clock the day after tomorrow, so that we have to go to the city tomorrow to purchase things for the sea.
It just so happens that when we go to the city to sell snails tomorrow, we can take the boat together.
The next morning, 5 o'clock, half an hour later than yesterday.
After breakfast, Chu Yang came to the purchasing station.
Today's purchasing station is busier than yesterday. There are more than 20 to 30 people squeezed in the yard of more than 100 square meters, and the variety of seafood brought by the villagers is also richer.
Chu Yang saw that there were a few sea cucumbers at the bottom of the bucket carried by Aunt Sun, and Grandpa Sun also caught two lobsters.
In addition to the snails, shrimps and crabs frozen in the refrigerator yesterday, the seafood to be sold today is nearly half more than yesterday. Adding up everything, it is more than 2,000 kilograms.
At 7:30, the things were packed into baskets and placed on the sampan. Chu Yang, Sun Qingjun, Hu Erhu and He Xijun took the boat into the city.
NoI didn't want to take the Sun Dalei brothers with me, but the sampan was so small that it already had a ton of cargo. If I took 6 adults, Chu Yang was really afraid that the boat would capsize.
At the dock, he successfully contacted the employees of Bai's Aquatic Products. Bai Pengfei didn't come today.
Chu Yang certainly understood that this was only a business worth a few thousand yuan, and there was no profit. It was definitely not worth it for Mr. Bai to come and connect with him every day.
In fact, Chu Yang himself was also taking a ride on the boat. When he arrived at the dock, he left Hu Erhu and He Xijun behind and left with Sun Qingjun.
Going to sea is not a trivial matter, not to mention that there are two more big men on the boat, and the food and supplies have to increase accordingly, which is quite troublesome to purchase.
Fortunately, after going out to sea twice, Chu Yang has accumulated some experience and met several suppliers. He just needs to give them a list of what he needs.
"50 jin of rice, 50 jin of cabbage, 20 jin of tomatoes, 30 jin of potatoes, 20 jin of mushrooms..."
"20 boxes of Runtian, 10 boxes of Yongchuang Tianya, 10 boxes of Feichang Cola, 3 boxes of Wanglaoji, 3 boxes of Huolibao..."
"Two sets of sea fishing rods, one set of harpoons, one set of trawl nets, 20 plastic baskets..."
Pile after pile of food and daily necessities were loaded onto the trunk of the Ford Raptor, and then transferred to the Minquanyu 01688 docked at the pier.
At this time, he regretted it a little. It was really tiring to move things. If he had known earlier, he would have asked the two brothers Da Lei to drive the sampan of Hu Erhu's family to follow him, and it would have cost less fuel.
Unfortunately, he didn't know earlier, and Chu Yang could only carry it slowly and bitterly.
Finally, all the supplies were loaded onto the boat and put away. Chu Yang sat on the small stool with a hot buttock, panting.
As a result, his buttocks were hit by something.
He touched it and found it was a USB flash drive. He bought it when he just passed by the computer city. It was a 16G Kingston and cost him nearly 2,000 yuan.
Chu Yang felt so painful when he spent it. It was not mainly because of the money, but because he felt that he was ripped off. After 10 years, a 64G USB flash drive only cost 200 yuan.
However, the largest USB flash drive on the market at this time was only 32G, and 16G was already quite high-end.
At least with the current clarity, it is no problem to store 20 or 30 educational films.
There is no other way. The night on the sea is really boring. I can only learn Japanese with the teachers in the dead of night.
