Rebirth of a farmer's daughter

Chapter 137 Buying Laver

Chapter 137 Buying Laver

Qianjin was a little baffled when Mrs. Hu handed her the basket. When she opened the blue cloth towel on it, her eyes widened uncontrollably, a flash of joy flashed in her eyes, and her hands trembled a little because of the surprise.

"If... if you can't sell it, then I won't bother you." Seeing that the daughter hadn't spoken, Yinxiang said sadly in a low voice.

"Qianjin, if it's going to happen, tell me something, I'm anxious to see Yinxiang." When Hu saw Qianjin staring at the basket, she didn't say a word, and didn't say anything good or bad, but she was so anxious to death.

"Daughter?" Seeing her strange expression, Zhou Zimu also felt puzzled.

"How much is this?" Seeing the laver in the basket, Qianjin's eyes lit up, and she looked up at Yinxiang and asked calmly.

This is laver that has just been caught, and it can be put back into the sea to feed.Seaweed is a type of seaweed. Even if it is dehydrated and refrigerated for a year, it can still survive if it is put back into sea water.And she had been thinking about seaweed for a long time, but unfortunately, because she didn't have a fishing boat at home, and it was hard for others to find it, she didn't include this in her plan.

As soon as Mrs. Hu heard Qianjin's question, she knew that there were some connections, and immediately replied excitedly: "There are many, I don't know yet, and some nets are still dragged in the water... Qianjin, how about you come with us?" Take a look?" If it's ten pennies per catty, it's a lot, at least some income, it's better than nothing.

"Okay." Qianjin didn't hesitate, and returned the basket in her hand to Mrs. Hu, then turned to Zhou Zimu and said, "I'll go and have a look. Go to your mother and get some loose silver, maybe I'll use it!"

"Okay!" Zhou Zimu didn't ask any further questions, he didn't ignore the surprise in Qianjin's eyes.

When they arrived at the shore, many people were discussing around the fishing boat covered with seaweed. Knowing that they took the seaweed to find Zhou Qianjin, they became even more curious, and wondered whether Zhou Qianjin would accept it or not.

If they accept it, it is also a good thing for them. In the future, whoever gets this online can just sell it to Zhou Qianjin.

"Hey, here we come. Look, it's the daughter of the Zhou family who is here." Someone saw Hu's leading two people coming over with keen eyes, and immediately shouted excitedly.

"Did they really take that thing?" Seeing Zhou Qianjin coming, Hu's face was still smiling, and everyone guessed.

"For sure, if you don't accept it, they won't come!"

"This stuff is soft and sticky, can it be eaten? Zhou Qianjin is really capable this week. It is said that the seaweed was sold by her. Last time Zhou Shun's house had seaweed in the lo mei. I bought a few Eating, it tastes pretty good, but I don't know how she cooks it." Someone remembered the taste and couldn't help swallowing.

"This seaweed is sold at a very high price. I heard from my friends in the town that the thing appeared in the town for a day, and it was never seen again. It is said that it was sent to the city." Someone gossiped in a low voice. Looking at it, there was excitement in his eyes, thinking that if he could master the way, he might be able to make a lot of money.

"My family's fishing boat is here." Yinxiang led Qianjin to the shore, her heart was still agitated, she didn't know whether she wanted it or not.

Qian Jin followed her fingers and saw that the tide was high, the fishing boat was leaning against the pier, half of the fishing nets on the boat were still in the water, and there were laver covered with water, so she frowned and said, "Take all the fishing nets out." Come up, I'll take a look after the moisture has gone, if it's okay, I won't treat you badly!"

When Yinxiang and Hu heard this, joy flashed in their eyes, and they immediately asked the people on the boat to pull up the fishing nets... After a while of busy work, the fishing nets were finally pulled up. Qianjin stood on the pier and watched carefully. Su Si nodded and murmured something that no one else could hear clearly.

"Put everything in the net into the frame, drain the water, and send it to my house." Originally, she wanted to buy it directly, but she couldn't afford so much water, so she had to let them deliver it.

"Qianjin, do you want more?" Seeing so many things on the boat, Hu asked a little startled.

Glancing at the tense Mrs. Hu, understanding her mood, he smiled and said: "This thing will be very light when it's drained... that's it, five wen for wet, twenty wen for dry, you guys Decide how to sell it?"

"Two...twenty Wen?" When Hu heard this, he stuttered, his tongue twirling in astonishment.

"My God, twenty cents, this thing is so expensive!" Everyone was shocked when they heard the price, no, they were dumbfounded, thinking they heard it wrong.

Yin Xiang, who was lowering her head to discuss with her man, was startled when she heard what Qian Jin said, and she quickly shook her head and refused: "No...not so high, only ten coins, the big-headed lady said she sold it to you last time. It's ten cents a catty, so you just take ten cents!"

Originally, I thought that this trip would cost me nothing, but I didn't expect that not only would someone want to buy these things, but now they would pay a high price of [-] cents, which made her timid.

Usually when they go out to sea, if they are lucky, they can get some pomfret, crony fish, etc., and they can sell some silver, but if they catch dragon head fish, they only have five cents a catty, which is not much money at all. If she has to make a profit, she will also lose money, so she is very happy now that she has ten cents a catty.

When Qianjin heard Yinxiang's words, a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, knowing that she was not a responsible person who likes to take advantage, she smiled and said: "I said twenty Wen, and twenty Wen, you can send it to my house!"

The higher the price, the more you can buy.

Just now, she wanted to collect it cheaper and raise it by herself.But considering the current situation, manpower is a problem, and money is also a problem, so it is better to take it slowly and earn some money first.

Moreover, she has an idea in her heart, she wants to develop agriculture and fishery together, and she doesn't know which one will be better at that time.

"Hurry up." Seeing that Yinxiang and his wife were stunned, Hu immediately urged: "I'm busy, I don't have time to waste with you, hurry up and get it done, you can go home to accompany the children!"

"Oh, we will fix it as soon as possible." When Yinxiang heard this, she panicked and became even more at a loss.

When Qianjin went back, she ran into Zhou Zimu and told him about the purchase of laver. Seeing that she didn't know the amount of silver, she went back and waited.

The yard of the Zhou family was full of things needed to build the house. Everyone was busy. When they saw Qianjin and Zhou Zimu coming in, they greeted each other. No one had time to take care of them, even Mrs. Yu was in the kitchen. I was so busy running around that I didn't have time to spare.

It was still a little cold in March, so not only did the kitchen have to cook hot dishes, but also hot water for the workers to drink to warm their bodies, so it seemed extraordinarily busy.

"Mother." Qian Jin walked into the temporary kitchen and saw Mrs. Yu was busy, so she yelled and said, "I bought some things at the pier, and they will deliver them later. You call me, and I'll take care of it first." Go to the backyard and have a look..." The house was going to be expanded, so half of the land in the backyard was appropriated, and she asked craftsmen to build some livestock breeding facilities, but she didn't know what to do.

"What strange thing did you buy again?" Yu Shi took the time to look up at her, then looked down at the pot, and told Yulan who was burning the fire to increase the fire.

"It's delicious." Qian Jin couldn't explain so much to her, knowing that she was just asking and didn't care how much money she spent, so she answered and smiled at her before turning and leaving.

"I don't know what I'm tossing around all day long, and I haven't seen anything happen." Mrs. Yu was nagging, and the work in hand continued to be busy...

Originally, the backyard of Qianjin's house was connected to a small path, but weeds were overgrown and they were not cleaned up. Whenever Yulan and the others came, they had to go around from the back, which was very inconvenient.Qian Jin originally wanted to open a small door at the back, but Granny Wang refused, saying that she has a small family, and if someone came in with malicious intentions, it would be bad, and it would be better for them to go around.
