Chapter 259: The second time we counted the family property, there was actually so much money?
Chen Hui thought this was feasible.
I made an appointment with He Juanjuan to wait for them at my own open space in Chenjia Village after lunch the next day.
Chen Hui did have something going on at home, so Huang Xiulian couldn't insist on keeping Chen Hui for "dinner".
The chef has run away, so there is no point in eating for free.
Everyone chatted and laughed, and then went back to their own homes.
Chen Hui and An Wenjing returned to Chen Huihong's house. They took the paper bags and happily went back to their room upstairs to count the money.
"Where is the list? Let me see it!" Chen Hui said as he sat down on the bed.
An Wenjing opened the paper package, took out the top sheet of paper, handed it to Chen Hui and said, "Sister Xiulian's money has also been given. Huang Wenqian's father gave it on her behalf."
Chen Hui opened the paper and saw the weight and price of the lobster clearly written on it.
Chen Hui's original idea was to have one price for each net bag.
Huang Xiu Lian and her team were even more meticulous than he had expected, and they wrote down the weight and price of every piece that weighed more than two and a half kilograms.
The final total price is: 2346 yuan.
This amount is about one hundred yuan more than what Chen Hui estimated when he was bored on the fishing boat.
"My uncle and his men are behind them," An Wenjing reminded.
Chen Hui turned the paper over and saw the following words written on the back:
2.16, 200
1.33, 50
250 * 0.7 = 175
"I don't know if this price is appropriate. Sister Xiulian said that this price is already very good considering net-caught lobsters." An Wenjing said.
"It's really good. I've seen lobsters being collected at the dock."
"Two of these big ones shouldn't cost more than 120. If we sell them to a state-owned restaurant, they'll probably be around 150 at most."
"The spending power of the rich women's circle is different, and it was solved in an instant."
Chen Hui sighed and thought of the last owner group he joined.
A group of female owners in the group often buy things together. They can buy hundreds of pounds of beef at a price of several hundred yuan per pound in a day.
I actually went from being a bystander to a supplier.
"Brother Chen Hui, what are you laughing at?" An Wenjing asked, waving her hand.
"We haven't even started building our new house yet, and we've received such a large sum of money!"
“This house will definitely attract wealth!”
"Wife, how much money does our family have now?" Chen Hui asked.
"Ha! If you're asking me this, you're asking the right person."
As An Wenjing spoke, he took out a crumpled piece of paper from his trouser pocket.
A dividing line was drawn down the middle of the paper.
The side with fewer words is income, and the side with more words is expenditure.
The money earned, from the hundreds of dollars from selling things to Huang Xiu Lian and others, to the five dollars from selling a tiger fish to Chen Yaozu, all appeared on it.
The places where money is spent are even more detailed.
Chen Hui even saw the thirty cents he spent on buying three popsicles last time.
"Adding the 2346 we earned today, our total is 4563.2!"
"Brother Chen Hui! We have so much money!"
"I can't even imagine what it would feel like to hold so much money in your hands."
An Wenjing was overjoyed.
"Not that much. I didn't remember some of the things I bought. I guess I have to reduce the price by a few dozen dollars!"
"But it's really easy to get things done with so much money!"
Chen Hui was also very happy.
The family’s original savings would be just enough to build a house according to my own ideas.
It’s different now, the budget is suddenly incredibly abundant.
"Brother Chen Hui, with so much money, can we build a castle?"
"Ah, no, what's that called? That one is called, that one is called, that one is called."
An Wenjing felt like her brain was stuck. The words were right on the tip of her tongue, but she just couldn't say them.
"villa!"
"Ah! Yes, yes, yes! Can we build a villa?" An Wenjing asked with a nod.
"Of course you can, but I don't plan to spend all the money on a house!" "Wife! I want to buy a fishing boat!" said Chen Hui.
"Buy a fishing boat? Why? Wouldn't it be better to follow your uncle and his family?" An Wenjing was puzzled.
Chen Hui told An Wenjing about this trip out to sea.
Plus the gains this time were really huge.
With just a few round trips, Wu Shuisheng and his colleagues earned as much money in just one week as they would have earned in a year or even two years at sea.
After a long time, no matter how bold Wu Guang and his friends are, they will have some ideas.
"Well, you decide, I'll listen to you!" An Wenjing nodded.
"But that's something for the future. Let's get the house ready first, and then we can slowly earn the money to buy the boat."
"Come, put away the bills and money first." Chen Hui said, handing several bills to An Wenjing.
During this move, An Wenjing brought all the cash and passbooks with her and placed them at Chen Huihong's house.
Chen Hui counted out a few hundred dollars in cash and kept it for future use.
The rest was put into paper bags.
He glanced at the time and saw that it was just after ten o'clock. He said, "Wife, take your passbook with you. Let's go to town and deposit the money first."
"Okay!" An Wenjing nodded.
"Chen Hui? Is Chen Hui back?!"
Chen Huihong came back from outside and saw a bicycle parked in the yard. She went into the house and shouted towards the second floor.
"Yeah, we're back."
Chen Hui responded loudly.
He counted out ten ten-dollar bills and put them in his pocket, then went downstairs with the lobster money from Wu Shuisheng and the others in his hand.
"Have you had breakfast? It's almost ten o'clock."
"Didn't you say you would be back after delivering the shrimps? Why did you take so long?"
Chen Huihong felt so distressed that she was about to go get the breakfast that was still warm in the pot for Chen Hui.
"I've already eaten. I've already gone to the county town. Can I come back hungry?"
Chen Hui took Chen Huihong and looked outside and asked, "Where's my uncle?"
"I came back, had breakfast, took a shower, changed clothes, and went to watch TV again!"
"I really don't know what's so good about this TV." Chen Huihong said, and sighed angrily.
"Don't be angry, I'll help you scold him!"
After Chen Hui finished speaking, he told An Wenjing to come to him on her bicycle later.
He took the money and went to find Wu Shuisheng.
Thinking about so many things to do at home, Wu Shuisheng just did nothing. He even came back from being out at sea for several days without getting a good night's sleep or rest.
The more Chen Huihong thought about it, the angrier she became. Seeing Chen Hui going to find Wu Shuisheng, she followed him.
"Aunt, why are you here too? I can go by myself. I know where it is."
"What's the big deal about you scolding your uncle? If anyone wants to scold someone, I should do it."
"No, it would be embarrassing for him to scold his uncle in someone else's house."
"Then I'll catch him and take him home to scold him."
Chen Hui wanted to protect Wu Shuisheng, while Chen Huihong wanted to teach him a lesson.
The aunt and niece were talking to each other as they just arrived at the gate of the same village.
Then I heard Wu Shuisheng's cheerful laughter and chatter.
"Hush! Let's see what uncle is looking at first. It's so beautiful and he's so engrossed."
Chen Hui signaled Chen Huihong not to make any noise.
Chen Huihong nodded.
"Every time I stand at the door and shout, your uncle comes out in a hurry, as if he is afraid that I will go in. Could he be looking at a woman?"
"Well, that shouldn't be it!"
Chen Hui found that he seemed to have made a not-so-good suggestion.
Uncle, you have to believe me! I'm really just curious!
