Chapter 255: Go to the County Town Early to Sell Lobsters

Chapter 255: Go to the County Town Early to Sell Lobsters
"In half an hour, go and wake them up. We will soon reach the shore!" said Wu Shuisheng.

"it is good!"

Chen Hui nodded and glanced at the time.

Since they were going to be sold together anyway, Chen Hui put all the lobsters together so that it would be convenient to take them to the purchasing point for weighing later.

Thinking that it was almost time, he went into the cabin and woke up everyone who was sleeping.

Fishing boats docked.

Wu Shuisheng first went to a familiar purchasing point to borrow a beam scale.

While weighing the lobsters, he taught Chen Hui how to adjust the weight and how to read the numbers on the rod.

Chen Hui had learned this skill before, but he lost it after using an electronic scale for a long time.

Wu Shuisheng weighed two lobsters as an example, and Chen Hui understood and took the beam scale to weigh the lobsters himself.

Put the weighed lobsters into five different net bags and mark them according to weights of more than three pounds, more than two and a half pounds, more than two pounds, more than one and a half pounds, and more than one pound.

Then put the net bag into the frame.

"Uncle, one of yours weighs two kilograms, and the other weighs one kilogram and seventy cents!"

"I'll take it away first!"

Wu Shuisheng and Wu Dahua carried a basket of fish to sell.

Chen Hui shouted loudly, grabbed the two ears of the fish basket with both hands, and strode back to Wu Shuisheng's house.

"Brother Chen Hui! You're back so soon?"

"My aunt and I are just about to go to the dock to pick you up!" An Wenjing heard the noise and ran out and said.

"Langshun came back today. My uncle said he came back more than an hour earlier than expected."

"Guess what good stuff I got this time?"

Chen Hui put the frame down, shook his arms and said.

"What good stuff?! Have you caught another valuable big fish?" Chen Huihong came out and said after hearing this.

"We didn't catch any big fish, but we caught more than a dozen big lobsters."

"This basket is full of big lobsters! The smallest one weighs more than a pound!"

Chen Hui said, and ran into the house to get the rope.

"More than a dozen?! ​​That's bullshit!"

“Let alone in the sea, even if you go to the dock to sell them, sometimes you can’t buy more than a dozen lobsters a day.”

Chen Huihong said this and curiously opened one of the net bags to take a look.

He was surprised and said, "It's really a big lobster! It's so big! It must be more than three pounds, right?"

An Wenjing also leaned over to take a look, and said with a delighted smile: "Brother Chen Hui, where did you catch this?"

"Lobsters, of course, are caught from the sea!"

"They lined up in the sea to do morning exercises, and I caught them all in one net!"

Chen Hui watched as Juexiao came out of the house and skillfully secured the frame to the back seat of the bicycle with ropes.

"Nonsense! Lobsters don't go to school, so why are they lining up for morning exercises?"

Chen Huihong cursed with a smile, and walked into the house while saying, "Come in and eat, breakfast will be ready soon."

"I won't eat them anymore. I'll send them to the county town to sell. They're worthless if they die!"

Chen Hui said this, stepped on the step and was about to go out.

When An Wenjing saw that he was going to the county town, her mind suddenly became active, but she was too embarrassed to say that she wanted to go with him, so she looked at Chen Huihong with an awkward smile.

Chen Huihong saw through An Wenjing's little thoughts at a glance.

Then he came out of the house, smiling and said:
"Go ahead! Let's come back and eat together later!"

"Ah Hui, bring Wen Jing along! She has lost her appetite since you were away for the past few days!"

"Oh! Aunt!" An Wenjing felt even more embarrassed now.

"My wife must be brought along. I'll push the car out first!"

The entrance to Chen Huihong's courtyard was a bit higher, so Chen Hui took the bicycle out, motioned An Wenjing to sit in the front, and he also sat on the bench.

Putting her feet on the ground, she leaned forward and said with a smile: "Aunt, when you are not around, uncle's meals don't enjoy the food at all!"

"Ha! You idiot, you dare to make fun of my aunt?!"

Chen Huihong reacted and clenched her fists to hit someone, but when she reached the door, Chen Hui had already fled far away on his bicycle.

"Goodbye, aunt! We'll be back for dinner soon!"

Chen Hui freed one hand and waved, turning the car towards the village entrance.

Chen Huihong was both angry and amused, and she stood at the door and punched the air.

"Hahaha, hahaha, aunt is really cute like this!"

An Wenjing laughed out loud, and then she said with emotion: "Brother Chen Hui, I really envy the relationship between you and your aunt."

"Aunt is indeed a lovely old lady." Chen Hui responded with a smile.

"You are so cute, and you are so cute! Go back and your aunt will beat you up."

"Hey! What are you doing?"

An Wenjing felt a cool breeze blowing from behind and couldn't help but shrink her neck.

"A short absence is as good as a new marriage. I've missed you so much these past few days!"

After Chen Hui finished speaking, he blew some air again, making An Wenjing shrink back.

The space in front was not very big. An Wenjing sat with her legs tucked in. When she moved back further, she felt like a curled-up kitten nestled in his arms.

I went out to sea for several days with a few grown men.

Seeing An Wenjing like this made Chen Hui distracted, and he pedaled his bike much faster.

"Slow down, slow down, or you'll hit the lobster." An Wenjing reminded, shrinking her neck.

Chen Hui slowed down slightly, and only sped up again when the road into the county town became easier to ride.

There are more lobsters today.

Chen Hui took An Wenjing to the home of Huang Xiu Lian, who was more familiar and easier to talk to.

Huang Xiu Lian was having breakfast when she heard the nanny say that Chen Hui and An Wenjing had arrived.

He put down his chopsticks, came out and said with a smile: "Come in! I cooked a big pot of porridge today but they didn't want to eat it. Help me get some!"

"Okay! I like to eat porridge in the morning."

"It's warm and easy to digest. I feel very comfortable after eating it all morning! I'll have three bowls after I sell the lobsters."

Chen Hui said very supportively.

Huang Xiulian was very happy to hear this and asked in confusion: "You caught the lobsters, why didn't you send them to Juanjuan? Didn't she say she wanted them anytime?"

"We caught a lot this time, both big and small."

"After all, I'm not that familiar with Sister Juanjuan, so I don't know if it's a good idea to send so much to her."

"I came here specifically to ask you for advice." Chen Hui said with a smile.

Everyone likes to hear nice words.

A young and handsome guy will be more likable when he says nice things.

Huang Xiulian's face was full of smiles, "Yeah! That's true! After all, we have a better relationship."

Let Chen Hui bring in the lobsters, and then pick out two good ones to keep.

Seeing Chen Hui bringing a frame, she looked a little confused.

Seeing the frame filled with net bags, I was even more confused, "How many are there?"

"Twenty in total! The ones in the net bag are from the fishing net. I'll take them to the restaurant to sell later. The others are all caught by me in the sea."

As Chen Hui spoke, he took out the net bag containing Wu Shuisheng and his friends' lobsters.

"Twenty, take away two and there will be eighteen left."

"So many?! How did you find them?"

"Chen Hui, tell me the truth, you didn't buy this from the dock and make a profit from the difference, did you?"
