Hard times have room

Chapter 372 A Little Expensive

"Paulin, come on, you're tired, come and sit." Li Ting was the first to notice Baolin who was walking into the courtyard with a backpack, and quickly stood up from the bench and greeted.

After she separated from Dashan and Paulin, she never saw her at the market again. Before returning, they searched for a while, but if they didn't find it, that's fine, they went back first.

Anyway, Paulin came here several times, and she may not be familiar with other places, but she is familiar with the road from the wharf to Qin's house. After all, every time she comes back, she runs back and forth between these two places.

"It's alright, I'm fine. After walking around for a while, I just found a big tree and sat down." After Paulin finished speaking, she walked into the main room and placed the basket at random in the corner.

Unexpectedly, she became the last person to come back this time, but she did stay at the market for a long time.

Although things can't be bought, it's good to sit on the high ground and watch the bustling crowd below. It's very lively. She can hardly see this scene in other places.

"Dad, where have you been?" As soon as Paulin entered, she found a small bench at random, moved it to the seat next to Li Ting, and asked without looking up.

Her dad stayed outside for at least three hours. She didn't see him at the market, not even once. Of course, it was possible that the two of them just missed it.

"I didn't go anywhere, I just went with your little brother to go fishing with a fishing net. Yesterday, I caught so much. It's a pity not to go around today."

Without experiencing it personally, it is difficult to understand his unbearable feeling, the feeling that as long as he casts the net, he may reap the rewards, and the satisfaction that the fish is completely caught by the net and pulled up.

So he took the hill with him after eating early in the morning. One was to enlighten him, and the other was to catch fish. It was very convenient to fish here.

For example, there is also a river in Shanghe Village, but there is only one fishing net. In the past, the property belonging to the rich owner in the village was stolen, and it became the public use of the team. Every year, the net was only cast to catch fish. population score.

There is only one fishing net in the whole village of Shanghe Village. In this Tongmao Village, almost every household has it. Maybe there are many rivers here!

Today Xiaoshan took him to many places. Except for the Tongmao River, which flows through Tongmao Village and is responsible for irrigating most of the village's fields, there are also many small rivers in other places, which are not too small. As far as the big Tongmao River is concerned, this morning alone, he saw three rivers no smaller than the Daqing River. There are many rivers and fields in this place. Most of them are flat, which is convenient for labor and irrigation. Still fat, it's a good place.

"However, the harvest at noon today is somewhat unsatisfactory compared to yesterday. There are only three small fish and two larger fish of about half a catty. That's all. It can't even match one-fifth of yesterday's." Speaking of which, Wang Jiandang's words were full of regrets.

Small fish are the size of one or two fingers, and there are no smaller fish. In this place, the nets at home are not too small, lest the big and small fish be caught in one net and no fish will be caught in the future.

Although I know that what they caught today may be their usual normal harvest, it may even exceed it. After all, if there is such a harvest by casting a net and fishing for fish in one day, I believe that many people will be circling the rivers next to them all day.

But without comparison, there is no harm. With yesterday's bumper harvest, today's ones are really unmanageable.

"That's not bad. It adds up to about a pound. It's better than our place. There isn't even a fishing net. I can only wait for the water to dry up and get a small net made by myself." Pauline looked at her. Dad is in a bad mood right now. After thinking about it, he comforted him by comparing the situation in Shanghe Village. I just heard from him that the harvest at noon today was really good.

Although Wang Jiandang did not feel comforted, this place wants to eat meat, there are fishing nets at home, and there is a big river outside, how can you catch a few small fish with hard work, it is no problem to drink fish soup, compared to his In his hometown, Shanghe Village, he just felt stuffed.

"By the way, Dad, didn't you go to the market?" Seeing that her dad's interest in this topic was still not high, Pauline quickly changed the question, skipping the previous topic that was troubling.

She guessed that her father was there, but she probably didn't buy anything. After all, everything in that place was expensive to her, let alone him.

If there was still contact with the black market before, I might have bought some expensive and rare things to go back and earn a small price difference, which is the errand fee. , I don't know if I changed it or not, and I don't know if I copied it or not, and there is a high probability that I will not risk going to that place.

"I went. After I came back from the net, I found that the door was locked, and the things were left at his uncle's house next door, so I went to the market with Xiaoshan."

"But I didn't buy anything, two dried fish, a pound of dried shrimps, that's all, I spent more than one yuan. I haven't come here for so long, and I found that the price of seafood here has gone up along with the grain, alas!"

Wang Jiandang sighed deeply, worrying that this time it was not good to be a teacher, and next time he came here, the mother-in-law might not agree.

Selling things can't be done now, and it stands to reason that he shouldn't come, but there is no way, he has a good relationship with Xiaoshan, and in the future, he will use his daughter to think about Li Ting, come here for a spin!
According to Pauline's time, three times a year is already the most. If he can't sell anything, he will come here three times a year.

"Dad, you also bought shrimp skins, and I also bought them." Paulin pretended to be surprised.

"How much did you buy? What's the price?" Wang Jiandang was excited when he heard Pauline's words.

If Pauline bought it more expensive, then he would be able to pass on some experience to her as an experienced person.

"Three catties, a total of one dollar." Paulin first made a three with her hand, and then raised a finger.

"One pound for three pounds, that's three cents for one pound, not bad, not bad." Wang Jiandang counted with his fingers, although he paused for a while, but the smile quickly hung up again, with a smile on his face. Reluctantly, he never mentioned how much he paid for his shrimp skins per pound.

The price of the shrimp skins he bought was a little bit more expensive than Paulin's, three cents a pound, which was almost two cents more expensive. He didn't plan to talk about this matter, it was really hard on face, how could he compare favorably with his daughter? more expensive.

"Oh." Pauline just snorted, and the rest didn't say much, let alone ask.

Now this place is not only their father and daughter, if they really ask, her father's face is not good.
