Little Life on An American Ranch
Chapter 332 Unfeeling
After returning home and chatting with his parents in the small shop for a while, Jian Heng found that he couldn't stay any longer, because the neighbors came to ask questions, and Jian Heng was really too lazy to answer them over and over again. problem, I had to say hello to my parents and drive out to get some air.
While sitting in the car, Jian Heng remembered the special aquatic products in his hometown, such as stickleback, small white trevally, whitebait and sharp-billed fish, which were not available in his own space, especially small white trevally and sharp-billed trevally. , this is the best miscellaneous fish for making small fish pot stickers! Thinking of this, Jian Heng took out his phone and asked where the show was held today, and then drove there with the navigation.
At the fair, it was still so lively, just as Jian Heng imagined, there were not many wild fish sold, but the fish were all fresh and fresh, mainly because wild fish was too expensive, and a catty was several times that of other fish , for ordinary people in the countryside, most people would not buy it if they have nothing to do.
What's more, the wild fish at this time are also small in size, the largest thorn is less than a palm long, and there is almost no meat, so there are many people who watch it, but very few people actually buy it.
Lifting his pants, Jian Heng squatted in front of the old fish seller, looked at the seven or eight thorns in his basin: How do you sell this fish?
Thirty-five a catty. The old man took a puff of his cigarette, glanced at Jian Heng and said enthusiastically, If you want a round bag, I'll give you twenty-four!
I have rented the garden and you gave me a piece of money? Jian Heng smiled and stretched out his hand to tease the fish in the basin. He found that the fish was quite energetic, and immediately wagged its tail when touched, and the thorns on its back were also very sharp. Sharp, real deal wild fish in the lake.
I don't have a few pieces left here, only seven or eight pieces, and the total price is not a few catties. If one piece is cheaper, the total price will be three or four yuan cheaper, the old man argued.
What's the price for the small trevally?
This seventy-five! said the old man.
Why is this so expensive? Jian Heng asked.
There are fewer of these things now, even if they are artificially raised, they are more than 40 pounds a catty, not to mention the wild ones, let me tell you this, you are now, if you start fishing, such wild small scads will be a little bit bigger. It’s cheap if it’s more than a hundred catties,” the old man murmured.
Jian Heng thought for a while and then asked, Where's the whitebait?
Now you can only go to the bottom of the lake to find that thing. This fish dies as soon as it comes out of the water. Now the whitebait is frozen as soon as it comes out of the water, and then it is directly transported away. Even if the average fisherman catches three or four, If you can’t sell it, you’ll eat it at home,” the old man replied honestly.
Jian Heng thought for a while and said, Then give me some small scads, I've rounded the stickleback, and this... Jian Heng pointed to three or four pots in front of the old man.
The man next to the old man was startled by such a bold purchase of fish, and asked repeatedly: Little young man, young man, it seems that the fish here are all fresh, I'll give you a little cheaper , everything!
Jian Heng stretched out his hand and found that the fish in front of the middle-aged man was indeed not small. There were not only fish but also crabs. It was a pity that the fish he sold were all high-end products, and even the crabs were hairy crabs. The claws of the crabs are not hairy, but the hairy crabs in the pot are full of water.
Although hairy crabs are well-known throughout the country, people in Shihua prefer the local crabs, which are thick and yellow in fat, which are no worse than crabs from Yangx Lake, but the difference is in their reputation. Besides, now who doesn't know that most of Yangx Lake is overwater crabs, that is, crabs from other places are bought, put in the lake for two days, and then sold under the name of Yangx Lake crabs. The price doubles in one day of immersion, which is indeed a good business.
For the same reason, there is also the hot winter fishing in Chax Lake, and now it is starting to go the way of Yangx Lake, put fish into it for breeding, fish that cost a few yuan a catty go in, and fish that cost dozens of yuan a catty come out , What a good deal.
You raise all the fish, I'm not interested in it. Jian Heng said, If you have live whitebait, I can still consider it.
Sixty-one catties, how many catties do you buy? The man opened his mouth and said, I'm talking about raising,
It's not wild, now you have to look at the wild ones if you want to catch them.
Do you have a catty? Jian Heng asked.
Then you come with me. As soon as he heard that Jian Heng wanted ten catties, the man immediately got up and began to clean up the stall.
Jian Heng saw that he really had this attitude, so he said, I'll take care of the matter here first.
After weighing the old man's fish and paying the money, Jian Heng moved the fish and the basin to the car. Of course, the fish went into the space as soon as Jian Heng got on the car.
I got in the car and followed the man all the way to the lake. When I got to the lake, I changed into a small wooden boat. It was not far away, and after more than one mile of water, I arrived at the fish farming point.
Things went well, the owner of the fish farm didn't even weigh the 61-jin whitebait, and he even gave the fish with a plastic box to Jian Heng generously.
Now that he came to the lake, Jian Heng asked about other special products in the lake, such as eel and loach, and bought everything he could buy anyway.
After tossing around the lake for several hours, collecting all the fish he could think of, Jian Heng finally completed his purchase.
Jian Heng saw that he had turned three times and five times, and he had almost arrived at the old man Yao's hometown, so he thought that he should not come again next time, just abduct his neighbor's house, and take the dog home for a few days. Then take it back to America.
After driving to the small villa area owned by the old man, Jian Heng found the family according to the house number that the old man said, and when he heard someone's voice in the yard, he immediately knocked on the door: Is there anyone inside?
Who is it? The people in the courtyard walked over and opened the courtyard door while talking.
Seeing a stranger, the woman in her forties who opened the door asked warily, Who are you looking for?
I was sent by Mr. Yao Chang Yao to pick up the dog. Is his big yellow dog fostered in your house? Jian Heng said.
The woman immediately frowned and said, Chang Yao, who is the chief Yao?
At this time, a voice rang out in the yard: Isn't Chang Yao the old stubborn man next door? The old lady let people in quickly, and the old stubborn man sent someone to fetch the dog.
As soon as the woman heard this, she immediately let Jian Heng into the courtyard.
Just when Jian Heng was about to say something, another person suddenly entered the yard. From the appearance of the person who came, he was about forty to thirty years old, and his eyebrows and eyes were so similar to that of Mr. Yao. Similar, with just one glance at Jian Heng, he knew who it was, Mr. Yao's son.
Mr. Yao's son was holding his son in the sun in the courtyard next door. Hearing the conversation in the courtyard here, he put the child down and ran over to see what was going on here. He still doesn't know that his father went to the United States, and Mr. Yao didn't tell anyone, even told his neighbors that he went to work.
Who's going to get his dog? The middle-aged man opened his mouth and looked at Jian Heng as soon as he entered the room.
Me, what's the matter? Jian Heng immediately became a little unhappy when he heard that, your father's dog is in foster care, and you didn't know how to pick it up when you came over? Still keep it in the neighbor's house? What kind of son is this!
You tell that person to come back, my mother wants to live in that house! Hurry up and transfer the real estate certificate to me. Hearing Jian Heng's bad tone, the middle-aged man opened his mouth and said directly.
Jian Heng said: The affairs of your family have nothing to do with me, and I'm not interested in being your mouthpiece. If you want to talk to him, you can say it yourself, or you can call or talk to him in person.
When the middle-aged man heard this, he glared at Jian Heng and left without saying a word.
The old woman closed the door and led Jian Heng into the house, and the couple whispered to Jian Heng: Don't come back, old stubborn man, there is no place to live when he comes back!
Seeing the puzzled expression on Jian Heng's face, the old lady said: That thing is worthless. As soon as the old stubborn head left, he immediately came to pick the lock and smash the door. The next day, he gave the house to the little boy he raised. The mother-in-law has moved in, and I have sent his old mother here these two days, alas, this old stubborn daughter-in-law is also blind, and a son like this expects to support the elderly?... .
It can be seen that the two couples can't see the old man Yao's son.
Jian Heng just listened to it as a story, it had nothing to do with him, besides, it was also Lao Yao's family business, and it was his own business to kill his father and son, husband and wife, as an outsider, he only had the only task now, to take the dog and leave.
So that's the case! Jian Heng pretended to be very angry, and responded to the old couple.
But the next sentence turned to the main topic: Where is this dog? Please, I will take it away!
I'll call you back, I must have run out to play, the old woman said enthusiastically.
Jian Heng stood up and thanked him, and watched the old lady go out of the yard. Jian Heng sat down and started arguing with the old man again.
For almost half an hour, Jian Heng waited a little anxiously, only to see the old lady come back, but there was no dog behind her.
Seeing Jian Heng's puzzled eyes, the old lady said with embarrassment: That... I'm sorry... the dog is gone!
Lost it? Jian Heng was startled.
The old lady said: I was beaten!
Who?
The old lady said: The son of the old stubborn head is hanging on the tree and peeling the dog's skin....
Jian Heng was stunned for a while, then took out his mobile phone and dialed the number of the ranch.
Someone called the old man to come over to answer the phone, and when he heard the old man's voice from over there, Jian Heng said, Old man, you have to hold on, I have some bad news to tell you.
Jian Heng didn't try to cover up anything, and after hearing the old man say seriously that he could bear it, he talked about the matter, and then heard a minute-long silence from the other end of the phone, and finally a soft sigh.
Thanks, I see. Give the old man the phone and I'll have a word with him, said Old Man Yao on the other end of the phone.
Old stubborn man, I'm sorry for you! The old man felt extremely guilty at this moment.
However, Mr. Yao smiled: I've troubled you these days. Is it your fault? Be sure to guard against family thieves. That's good, now there is nothing to worry about in the country!
