Chapter 381 Want to buy a TV? I have a way
"Chen Hui, I really made the right choice for this fish!"

"I won't take advantage of you for nothing. So, I'll charge you ten yuan for one pound of fish, and I'll give you half of the fish head."

Chen Yaozu was not a stingy person.

When I'm in a good mood, I become even more generous.

For such a big grouper, the texture of the fish meat is already quite solid and not very tasty.

Fish heads are different. They have thick skin, tender meat and a lot of gelatin. They are delicious whether they are chopped into peppers or cooked into soup.

This fish head is so big, half of it weighs about seven or eight kilograms.

"Is it true? This fish head is a good thing!" Chen Hui asked in surprise.

"A real man does what he says."

"Master, please help me cut the fish head in half."

After Chen Yaozu finished speaking, he took out a stack of money that he had prepared long ago from his pocket.

He counted eighty-seven and handed them to Chen Hui.

"That's more than 800 yuan. I've been working at sea for several years, and I've never made so much money in one go."

"Don't talk about you. I haven't made any money in more than ten years of fishing."

"This brother is really lucky. This trip is equivalent to ten trips I have taken to the sea."

The fishermen who were watching were so envious that they were about to cry.

"Okay, I'll do it for you right away. Once the fish bladder is out, I can start working with confidence."

"Wait a minute, let me remove all the scales from the fish first, and then I can cut the fish."

"It will take at least one or two hours to finish the fish scales."

"You can go for a walk first, or go to my cousin's house to rest for a while, and then come back to get the fish later."

Li Jianshe found a small axe and squatted down to slowly clean the fish scales.

After the money was paid and the people saw the fish maw and ate it all, they left in amazement.

It seems that Chen Hui has finished all the work here.

Wu Shuisheng leaned forward and asked, "Yaozu, we still have two lobsters, do you want to take them?"

"Lobster? How big?"

"About one to one and a half kilograms."

"Okay, go take a look, and if it's suitable, take it. I'll take it back to the hotel first."

Chen Yaozu said this and motioned Wu Shuisheng to lead the way.

Chen Hui also followed, and the three of them returned to the fishing boat.

This lobster is of good size, and even though it came from a fishing net, it has all the limbs intact.

Chen Yaozu took it according to the price of buying vegetables in the restaurant.

He said to Chen Hui: "You rode your bicycle here, right? Lend it to me, so I can go back without riding a tricycle."

"Let's go together. I also want to go to the county town." Chen Hui said.

"Then go back, change your clothes, pack up, and send the money from the lobster sales to Wu Guang and the others."

"Then wait for you to go back to Chenjia Village together?" Wu Shuisheng asked.

"it is good."

"That big fish is hard to handle, but my uncle can still watch some TV."

Chen Hui said jokingly.

The three of them returned to Wu Shuisheng's home together.

Chen Hui took a five-minute cold shower and changed into clean clothes.

He first rode his bike to take Chen Yaozu and Long Xia to the state-owned restaurant, and then waited for him at the door.

The hotel cashier came back from outside, recognized the man and said:
"Hey, aren't you that relative of Zu Ge?"

"He's not here right now. What do you have to sell? Show it to me."

Chen Hui smiled and pointed inside and said, "He's in there!"

"Huh?! Brother Zu is back!?"

The cashier sister said this and went in with a smile.

Chen Hui watched her walk in, and an educational film about half an hour long automatically appeared in his mind.

He quickly shook his head to get rid of the messy thoughts.

It's just a matter of giving a lobster and calculating the money.

It took Chen Yaozu nearly twenty minutes to come out.

Seeing Chen Hui smiling at him, he asked with a guilty conscience, "What are you laughing at?"

"The educational film is a bit short, ten minutes at most."

Chen Hui muttered inwardly, lowered his head and smiled, then got on the car and said, "Come on, accompany me to the supply and marketing cooperative."

"What are you doing at the supply and marketing cooperative?" Chen Yaozu sat cross-legged on the back seat. "To buy a TV."

"Television? Do you have electricity at home?"

"As a gift."

"That's a pretty big gift, isn't it for your lover?"

"Relatives, not lovers."

"Send it to your family?"

Chen Yaozu expressed his disbelief and tried to inquire in a roundabout way all the way, wanting to know who Chen Hui was going to give it to.

The two chatted as they arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative and went upstairs with the clerk.

Seeing three or four TVs on the second floor, Chen Hui was a little surprised: "There are so many of these in stock."

"Now that life is better, who wouldn't buy a TV when moving to a new house or getting married?"

"The supply and marketing cooperatives in several towns are out of stock, so we can sell a few in the county without any problems," explained the clerk.

"Okay, as long as it's in stock, I'll come back to buy it in a few days!" Chen Hui nodded.

"If you don't buy anything today, what are you looking at?"

After the clerk finished speaking, he turned around and went downstairs.

Chen Hui and Chen Yaozu were left with an awkward smile.

Chen Yaozu walked to the stairs and looked down.

Seeing that the person had really left, he pulled Chen Hui over and asked in a low voice: "Are you sure you want this TV? If you want, I can ask someone I know to get it for you. It can be 30 to 50 yuan cheaper!"

Yes! Chen Yaozu has acquaintances.

Chen Hui smiled in surprise and asked in a low voice, "Is it the one who helps me get the groceries?"

Chen Yaozu nodded.

"Are you sure? I'll go through one, two, three, four."

Chen Hui counted the days on his fingers and confirmed: "Come and get it in five days. It would be even better if you can help me tie a flower or something."

"Why are you tying flowers to the TV? And you say it's not a gift for your lover?" Chen Yaozu questioned.

"Uncle Yaozu, you have to stay awake!"

"Don't let your lover fill your mind. If it gets exposed at home, you'll suffer the consequences," Chen Hui reminded.

"I don't have any relationship with you. We are colleagues."

"Uncle Yaozu, I didn't say who it was just now!"

"."

Chen Yaozu was speechless. He glared at Chen Hui and walked away.

The clerk who went downstairs first was a little surprised why the two people didn't come down yet, and was about to go over to check.

Seeing Chen Yaozu coming down, Chen Hui followed closely with a smile, then went back to his own business with a sullen face.

"Miss, weigh a pound of cookies for me."

"I want it now, pay immediately!"

As Chen Hui spoke, he took out ten yuan from his pocket.

"A pound of biscuits costs one dollar and fifty cents!"

The clerk said coldly, weighing the cookies and placing them on the counter.

He took the money and gave the change to Chen Hui.

"What? Buy some cookies to apologize?" Chen Yaozu looked at Chen Hui in confusion.

"What are you thinking about? This is for my sister-in-law."

As Chen Hui spoke, he tied the biscuits into a knot and hung them on the handlebars of his bicycle.

"Your sister-in-law?"

Chen Yaozu squinted his eyes and looked at him.

Chen Hui knew that his thoughts had gone astray again.

He sighed and said unhappily, "Five years old!"

"Hey, little brat!" Chen Yaozu smiled embarrassedly.

The two rode their bikes back to Dasa Village.

After drinking tea at Wu Shuisheng's house for a while, I calculated that it was about time, so I set out to the dock to get the fish.

In addition to half a fish head, Chen Yaozu generously gave Chen Hui two pieces of fish meat, paid the fish butcher, and rode away on his bike.

"Let's go, we're going back too."

"Such a big fish head will give us a good meal at noon."
