Chapter 337: Talk about the price boldly. Is there any fish that Juanjuan can’t afford?
"You guessed it right! We really did make an appointment!"
"Chen Hui, did you bring anything today?" Huang Wen Qian said, coming over with a smile to open the door.
He looked at Chen Hui carefully and said, "Huh? Why do I feel like you've become a little darker?"
"Uh, no!"
Chen Hui saw He Juanjuan and Huang Xiulian also came out.
He perfunctorily stepped back half a step to the side so that they could have a first look at the fish in the basket.
"Wow! This fish is so beautiful!"
Huang Xiulian noticed it at a glance and said in surprise.
"What fish? What fish?" He Juanjuan also came forward to take a look and said in surprise, "There is also a manta ray? It's so big!?"
"Chen Hui, what are these? Please introduce them to us!" Huang Xiu Lian urged.
"Everyone knows about the manta ray. It's not a rare fish and the quality of its meat is average."
"The yellow one is called Neptune grouper. It is rare and expensive."
"I just sent it to you while it's still alive. Don't feel pressured, Sister Xiulian!" Chen Hui said with a smile.
Huang Xiulian became unwilling when she heard this.
He slapped Chen Hui and scolded him with a smile:
"What do you mean by look? The fish that arrive at my doorstep are mine!"
"Even if I can't afford it, there's still Juanjuan. She can afford any fish now! She can buy one for more than ten yuan."
Huang Xiulian hadn't finished speaking yet.
He Juanjuan reached out and pulled her shoulder, shook her head and said, "Don't talk nonsense, it's not all mine! I have to give half of it away over there."
Huang Xiulian smiled and waved her hands, then continued, "Just tell me, how much do you want to sell this little fish for?"
"Um"
"If this fish is sold at the port, it should be able to sell for three or four hundred yuan." Chen Hui said tactfully.
When He Juanjuan and Huang Xiulian heard the answer, they laughed at the same time.
"It's only three hundred. Looking at your expression, I thought you wanted three thousand!" Huang Xiu Lian joked.
"If it's three thousand, I really can't afford it!"
He Juanjuan smiled and echoed Huang Xiulian's words, then looked at Chen Hui and said:
"I'll buy both of these fish. You won't get a bad deal on the price."
"I've never even seen such an expensive fish, let alone how to cook it."
"Are you free today? Can you help me cook lunch?"
"Ah?!" Chen Hui was confused.
Since when did selling fish require this kind of after-sales service?
"Hey! If you have something to say, just say it directly. Chen Hui is a simple-minded kid." Huang Xiu Lian said to He Juanjuan.
Then he explained to the confused Chen Hui:
"Actually, she's going to invite an important person to dinner at noon, and she's worried about not having a good dish to serve!"
"This fish, which costs three or four hundred yuan, is quite good. If you don't know how to cook it, it will be cooked into three or four pieces. Wouldn't it be a waste?"
"Besides, we don't know anything about this fish. If someone asks us, we won't be able to explain it!"
exactly.
If you have any needs, just tell us!
Given our relationship, it's not impossible for me to be a free cook for two hours part-time.
Chen Hui added in his mind, nodded and smiled: "Okay! I don't have anything to do today."
"Aunt Juanjuan, can I come to your house for lunch at noon?" Huang Wenqian suddenly became happy and asked, grabbing He Juanjuan's arm.
"Of course you can, but we may need to talk about something, so just don't talk and eat!" said He Juanjuan.
"No problem! I promise I won't say a word!"
"My mouth is for eating!" Huang Wenqian said, patting her chest.
"Don't just think about eating. We are here to entertain guests. Don't let them get eaten by you."
Wang Guixiang suddenly said something in a sarcastic tone.
She just couldn't stand Huang Wenqian being a girl.
Being treated like a baby by his parents and brother, he is even more precious than her own son.
"Come on, Sister Jia Jia, let's go measure the size!"
Huang Wenqian retorted unhappily and pulled Lu Jiajia into the house.
Chen Hui listened to a few people chatting for a while.
Only then did I realize that they had indeed made an appointment to gather at Huang Xiu Lian's house today, and had asked Lu Jiajia to come over to measure their sizes and choose new fabrics to make new clothes.
"Chen Hui, let me make one for you too! I'll pay for you!" Huang Xiu Lian suddenly said with a smile.
Chen Hui quickly waved his hand and said politely, "No! No! I work every day, and this kind of clothes can't stand the tossing!"
"Who said that? Xiao Lu's clothes are of very good quality!" said Wang Guixiang.
"It's not your turn to pay, I'll pay for him!"
"Just consider it as a thank you for helping me cook!" said He Juanjuan.
How can I accept such a gift!
Chen Hui's face was full of smiles, but his attitude was firm.
We rejected each other several times, and finally gave up when we saw that he really didn't want to accept it.
Seeing that the fish in the frame still had a strong will to survive, he said, "It's still early for lunch. I'll take Chen Hui back to raise the fish. If they die, they won't taste good!"
"What about your clothes? Are they made according to the previous size?"
"The material hasn't been selected yet!" said Huang Xiu Lian.
"We'll deliver it and come over!"
After He Juanjuan finished speaking, she gestured towards the bicycle, indicating that Chen Hui should ride with her.
"Sister Juanjuan, you have to sit in the front today." Chen Hui said, pointing to the fish basket at the back.
He Juanjuan nodded indifferently.
After Chen Hui got the pedals right, he jumped lightly onto the pole in front of Chen Hui and sat down.
"Who used to sit in this seat? Wen Jing?"
He Juanjuan took the initiative to make a joke.
Relieve the embarrassment of sitting in the "co-pilot seat" and being too close to Chen Hui!
"Wenjing usually sits in the back. She likes to hug my waist and put her face on my back."
"In my heart, fish and my wife are the most important, so I can only put the fish or my wife in the back!"
Although he looks like a man in his early twenties, he is already an old man at heart.
Chen Hui had already developed a thick skin, and he spoke calmly.
He Juanjuan laughed out loud: "No wonder Lao Wang always says you're interesting when he comes back!"
Huang Xiulian's house and He Juanjuan's house are very close, and they arrived there in just a few minutes of chatting.
"Hurry, hurry, bring the fish and follow me!"
He Juanjuan jumped out of the car, pushed open the iron door outside, and took Chen Hui into the kitchen.
Walking through the kitchen to a terrace outside, Chen Hui saw the water tank that Huang Xiu Lian had mentioned, which was much more advanced and professional than the one at the purchasing point.
It’s made of bricks and tiled inside and out, it’s huge!
Not to mention one, even three big stingrays would be more than enough.
"Is this sea water?" Chen Hui asked, pointing at the water in the tank.
"It's sea water for sure! It was just changed yesterday!"
"I went to the dock twice yesterday, thinking I would be able to buy some good seafood!"
"The outcome still depends on you!"
He Juanjuan said this while looking at the oxygen equipment.
Small bubbles popped up in the water tank.
Chen Hui quickly put the Neptune grouper in first, and then put the manta ray together with the basket.
Crouch aside to check on the fish.
If you can't keep it alive, you have to fish it out and deal with it immediately before it dies.
