Reborn in the Millennium: Building a Fortune from Fishing

Chapter 262

"You're wasting money. Should you go out to drive your sports car or do business?" the elder sister said mercilessly.

She felt even happier when she took the river shrimp from her brother.

"Sit down first, I'll buy you breakfast."

"You haven't eaten yet?" He handed his brother-in-law a cigarette.

"I bought it for you after I finished eating." With that, the elder sister hurried out.

"Brother-in-law, Binbin hasn't woken up yet?" He hadn't seen the little fat boy for a long time and he missed him a lot.

"The little thing sleeps until eight or nine o'clock every day." My brother-in-law said sourly.

He also wanted to sleep until eight or nine o'clock, but the fertilizer store had to open early, so it was not that easy.

My brother-in-law was quite curious about the car, so Qin Dahe took everyone into the car.

"That's great! It's more spacious than a car. This bread must be expensive."

"Well, it's quite expensive." He was too lazy to worry about the name, so a van was just a van.

The eldest sister also got in the car to buy some delicious food, and kept looking around.

He took a bite of the big meat bun and it was delicious.

"Sister, when you have time later, buy the kid some nice clothes and take him to Cangtou to see someone tomorrow."

"Okay, let's try to do it quickly. It would be great to get married in the second half of the year." The eldest sister knew that the silly boy was hanging out with her younger brother, so she didn't mind giving him a little help.

"Are we going to have a banquet?"

"Yes, this is a proper wedding." He finished the remaining buns in a few bites and sipped the soy milk through a straw. "He's made a lot of money lately, so he won't be inviting many people anyway."

"Even if you're busy with the kids, you should still pay attention to Yanyan. If anything goes wrong with the twins, I'll definitely punish you."

"I know. I'll take you here when I have time."

"That's more like it." The eldest sister couldn't help but smile when she thought of her silly sister-in-law at home.

My family is getting better and better, and my mom and younger brother still care about me, which is great.

Seeing that it was almost eight o'clock, the kids probably sold all the miscellaneous fish, so he drove his eldest sister to the vegetable market.

When he arrived at the place, the boy had already sold all the miscellaneous fish and was waiting for him.

"Baby, wash yourself. I'll ask my sister to take you to buy two sets of clothes."

"Yeah." The silly kid grinned when he heard it, quickly went to the faucet to rinse his leather pants, then took them off and put them in the trunk.

Fishmongers usually have to wear these leather overalls to prevent them from getting wet.

He also washed his hands carefully because he was afraid of getting them dirty when trying on clothes.

The eldest sister asked Qin Dahe to drive to the opposite side of the vegetable market and stop, and took the child to the clothing store.

Men still need women to help them choose clothes. If they buy clothes themselves, they are likely to buy comfortable and repetitive clothes. They would like to buy three or five sets of the same style to wear alternately.

It's hot now, so the eldest sister just bought the child two pairs of Dacron trousers and matched them with a simple brown short-sleeved shirt, which makes the child look whiter.

I go fishing with Qin Dahe every day and I get quite tanned.

"Just wear new cloth shoes. People value honesty and reliability, no need for fancy things."

The elder sister looked at her masterpiece and unbuttoned the top button of her shirt, which made it look much better.

"That's all. Don't stutter when you speak tomorrow."

"I know. Thank you, sister." The kid nodded gratefully. It felt good to have someone in charge.

I couldn't contain my joy at the thought that I would soon have a wife.

"Haha, look at the baby, he's so happy." She looked at the baby with amusement, her eyes full of happiness.

After buying clothes, we drove back to the fertilizer store and the little fat boy was already eating buns.

"Uncle." When Binbin saw the person getting out of the car, his eyes lit up and he ran over with a bun in his mouth.

"Slow down, don't fall." Qin Dahe hugged him, but he was so heavy, so he put him down again.

"Car, car, big car." The little guy pointed at the car excitedly and wanted to climb up.

The door of the Land Cruiser was quite high, and he couldn't climb in, so he used his hands and feet in a hurry.

Qin Dahe grabbed him from behind and went up immediately.

The little fat boy was touching things left and right, mumbling something, and his eyes were not enough to keep him busy.

"Uncle, the car."

"Well, does it look good?"

"nice."

"Haha, you're quite knowledgeable." This nephew is loved well, as he knows how to praise his car.

But it's easy to get on the bus, but he starts to act like a spoiled child when he gets off, and refuses to get off no matter what.

Holding on to the steering wheel tightly and not letting go, such a big toy is so rare.

"Sister, I'll take you for a walk and come back later." Qin Dahe happily put the little one on the passenger seat and asked the child to hold her.

"Be careful, we'll bring you back after a short walk." The couple didn't care.

It's so noisy every day, either eating or playing, not sleeping in the middle of the night and falling asleep in the morning.

He stepped on the accelerator and deliberately shifted to first gear. The roar immediately made Binbin excited.

Qin Dahe opened the car window and let the little guy have fun, and drove around the town.

"Uncle, I want more." When he was getting off the car, he refused to do it again. This time, no one would tolerate him, and the eldest sister forced him to get off.

"Binbin, I'll take you out to play next time. Be a good boy."

"No, play."

"Let's go." After saying goodbye to my elder sister and the others, I went straight home.

Send the child back first, then go home and give the money to my mother. She is also responsible for the family's meals. Qin Dahe will subsidize her when he has time.

Yanyan hadn't gotten up yet and was lying lazily on the bed. When she saw him come in, she immediately perked up.

"Brother, I'm hungry."

"Hurry up and wash up, and come out for dinner." He smiled and touched the girl's head. She was really good at sleeping. She went to bed earlier than him last night.

"I don't want to move." The little girl hugged the pillow and said with a smile.

"Shall I serve you food?"

"Forget it, get up and eat." She chuckled. She just said that. If people knew that she was eating in bed before she even started her confinement, they would gossip about her.

Qin Dahe had already eaten so he didn't join in the fun. He spread out the shrimp cage, rinsed it with water, and then spread it out in the yard.

It doesn’t matter if it rains. Just wait until the rain stops to dry the net and then repair it.

I went to the warehouse to check the fish food inventory again, and it seemed that there was not much tofu dregs left.

But it’s raining now and we can’t fry it. The raw bean dregs we bring back will go bad in one day and we can’t use them.

"Mom, how much bait is left at home?" Now the bait for silver carp and bighead carp is all in the utility room in front, and Qin's mother is helping to sell it.

"There are still more than 200 pounds. If it's not enough, I can copy more."

"It's okay, just make some to feed the fish. Remember to fry some more when the weather clears up."

"Okay." Mother Qin smiled and went to the utility room to get the bait.

Don’t underestimate the bait, it is really profitable. The profit of one kilogram of bait is seven or eight yuan, and those people use at least ten kilograms a day.

Some anglers have tried to make their own bait, but now there are no testing machines, so they can only roughly guess what is in the bait and try to replicate it.

They didn't know what the main ingredient, potato snowflake powder, was. Some people could smell tofu dregs, but it was useless because it wasn't sticky enough.

As for the final result, the atomization and flavor were not ideal. After being beaten a few times at the sluice gate, I gave up and just came to buy bait.

After mixing the fish food, the little girl finished her meal and watched him busying around under the eaves while holding an apple.

After getting on the boat, with a gentle push, the boat rushed to the center of the pond and the fish food began to spread.

This time, because there was less tofu dregs, I added a lot more gluten when putting in the silver carp and bighead carp bait.

Fish food is different from bait and cannot be atomized, otherwise it would be a waste.

The biggest function of gluten is to solidify the bait and prevent it from scattering. The second is to increase the protein content in the bait.

However, the cost of gluten is not as cheap as tofu dregs, which can be fed after just frying.

During this period, Hanwaer helped him add a batch of fish fry. Together with the pond bottom, there are at least a thousand kilograms of crucian carp in it, so he still needs to feed them.

After careful calculation, Qin's mother concluded that raising a crucian carp pond would make more money than raising pigs, and she wouldn't have to clean up the dirt in the pigpen.

As balls of fish food were thrown in, the crucian carp immediately started to jump into the water.

It rained today, and the crucian carp were still quite active given the high dissolved oxygen content in the pond.

There are also several grass carp, silver carp and bighead carp in it, and four black carp have been released. These functional fish together are probably more valuable than crucian carp.

The rain was still falling lightly from the sky. Qin Dahe didn't even open an umbrella. He returned to the house in the drizzle, wiped his hair roughly twice, and played with the dog with Yanyan.

The looks of the two local dogs are almost gone. The young and middle-aged ones are extremely ugly, and their heads are very square.

The black bear is a little better, at least it looks thinner, but its belly is still round.

It kept rubbing against the little girl's feet, wanting to be held, but Yanyan already had Feifei in her arms. After being yelled at, it ran away.

Qin Dahe scratched Chaomian's chin with a smile, and Gouzi leaned on his legs with a look of enjoyment.

"Mom, where's Sang Biao?"

"I don't know. He went out last night and didn't seem to come back." Qin's mother took out an account book.

My son just asked about bait for silver carp and bighead carp, so I'll check the bill as well.

"Dahe, let's settle the bill for the bait, and I'll give the money to Yanyan." It just so happens that I'm not busy today.

Qin's father took his men out early in the morning, probably to take care of the grass carp nests. Qin Dahe saw that a lot of sour corn had also been dug up.

"Why bother? Just take it." He said indifferently.

The little girl also nodded with a smile. "We have a salary, and the money is enough."

"That's too much money." After a pause, the old woman handed me the account book: "Ever since you lowered the price on the bait, we've sold over 600 kilograms."

It was just over 6,000 yuan, and she was afraid her daughter-in-law would have objections, so she told her in advance.

"So much?" Qin Dahe was also surprised. He thought it was only three or four thousand yuan a month at most. He had two clients in other places who bought a lot.

"Yes, some people buy a lot, buying 20 or 30 kilograms at a time."

Strategy, no wonder so many people in the previous life praised fishing for silver carp and bighead carp, selling bait is indeed profitable.

The cost of a small family workshop like his is less than two yuan, and those produced on a large scale are probably even lower.

Well, the current grain prices are not much different from those in twenty years, but at that time, silver carp and bighead carp baits would sell for at least ten yuan per catty, and the profit would be higher than he has now.
