Chapter 575: People run in front, money chases behind

"Ah!? What the hell?!"

It was pitch dark and Wu Guang was startled by the sudden shout.

After realizing what was happening, the three of them quickly ran over with flashlights to take a look.

Chen Hui was seen sitting on the wooden bed, shaking his head with a dazed look on his face.

Wei Jianjun shone the flashlight on Chen Hui and looked him up and down.

Seeing that he was fine, he smiled and teased: "What's wrong? Are you suffering from sleep paralysis?"

"Are you having a nightmare? Or are you feeling unwell?" Wu Shuisheng also asked.

Chen Hui used his palm to block the light coming in from the flashlight.

He relaxed and said with a helpless smile: "I dreamed of catching a giant octopus and then being caught by a giant octopus."

Hearing this answer, the three people at the door couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"When we get back, ask your aunt to get you some tea to calm your nerves."

After saying this, Wu Shuisheng went to sleep next door, but couldn't help laughing out loud again.

"No need! I'm not scared! I was just dreaming!" Chen Hui retorted loudly.

It’s better not to say this.

As soon as they said this, several people started laughing again.

Chen Hui was also helpless. He lay back on the pillow, turned over twice and fell asleep again.

The fishing boat was about to dock, and Wu Shuisheng came in to wake up Chen Hui.

Chen Hui came out of the cabin rubbing his face and poked the giant octopus first.

It can also move by adhering to the fishing net, but its movements are very slow.

It is obvious that the vitality today is much weaker, so we have to get it to the county town and sell it quickly.

"Chen Hui, who are you going to sell this big octopus to?" Wu Shuisheng came over and asked.

"Um"

Chen Hui also felt a little troubled when he saw this.

The original plan was to keep him on oxygen and use it on the 26th.

For such a large octopus, just blanching or braising one of its tentacle will produce a very good visual effect.

If the road reconstruction in the village is not completed.

Just give the rest as gifts to everyone.

The mouth that eats people is short, and the hands that take people are short.

The leaders took the gifts from the village, and maybe when Chen Kaiming goes to discuss things again, things might go more smoothly.

"I'll take it to the county town first and see if He Juanjuan or the state-owned hotel's freezer can lend it to me for a few days." Chen Hui said after thinking.

Although sending frozen food is a bit disappointing.

However, this octopus is indeed ridiculously large, so it still has some curious attributes.

"Lend it to you for a few days? Aren't you going to sell it?" Wu Shuisheng asked puzzledly.

Chen Hui shook his head and pointed to another water tank and said, "I won't sell those either. I have great uses for them."

"So you caught a lot of fish this time, but didn't make a dime?"

"By the way, why do you keep so many of them at home?"

Wu Shuisheng couldn't quite understand.

"Do something big!"

"If I can help with this matter, I can brag about it to my grandchildren."

Chen Hui laughed and didn't elaborate.

"Chen Hui, you are going to the county town, please help us deliver these two sea breams to the restaurant." After the fishing boat slowly approached the shore, Wu Guang came over and asked.

This is a good-looking fish.

They now send them directly to Chen Yaozu, and can make a lot more money than at the purchasing point at the dock.

"Okay, I'll go back and ride my bike over here, and prepare the water tank at home."

"Uncle, after we sell the fish, please help me take the fish in the tank back home and raise them first."

As Chen Hui spoke, he got off the fishing boat and trotted to Chen Huihong's house.

The fishing boat came back a little late yesterday because the wind was strong at sea and it was sailing against the wind.

The original plan was to dock around five o'clock, but now it's half past six.

Chen Huihong had cooked breakfast and was about to go out to the dock to check out the situation.

I heard a knock on the door and came out to open it, wiping my hands on my apron. "I was just about to go look for you guys. Are you hungry? Breakfast is ready."

It is common for fishing boats not to arrive as planned.

Chen Huihong did not ask the reason. When she saw the person, she felt relieved after two days of worry and a smile appeared on her face.

Whenever I look at Chen Hui, I always feel like something is missing.

"I'm actually a little hungry. Is the water tank at home ready?"

Chen Hui asked as he walked in.

"It's done. Wen Jing finished it last night."

"Huh? Why did you come back empty-handed today?" Chen Huihong seemed to be missing something.

Whenever Chen Hui went out to sea, he never returned empty-handed.

"The things are all on the fishing boat. My uncle will bring them back later."

"I'll eat something first and then deliver the things to the county town."

As Chen Hui spoke, he went to wash his face and brush his teeth.

Chen Huihong took out a large bowl of pickled vegetables and vermicelli from the pot.

Looking at the bowl full of meat, Chen Hui asked with a smile: "Aunt, did you give me all the meat?"

"No, I left some for Wen Jing."

"It's so rare that this child is so lucky. She can eat and sleep well during pregnancy and doesn't feel uncomfortable at all." Chen Huihong said as she sat down.

"What about you and your uncle?"

"Oh! There are some! Come on and eat them. It's not like we can't afford meat now."

Chen Huihong urged.

Chen Hui nodded and lowered his head to finish the vermicelli in the bowl.

He left half of the meat in the bowl, went to the utility room to get the rope for the water tank, and rode away on his bike.

"Hey! Chen Hui, why did you leave so much food?"

Chen Huihong also served herself a bowl of vermicelli.

Not to mention meat, there wasn't even much pickles.

Seeing the remaining meat in Chen Hui’s bowl, he put down the bowl and chased after him.

Seeing that Chen Hui had already ridden away on his bike, he scolded him a few words into the air.

He returned to the house, put some of the meat into his bowl, and sat down to eat breakfast.

Chen Hui parked his bicycle and returned to the fishing boat.

He poked the octopus again.

There was almost no response.

Pour out the sea water in the water tank and untie the net to take a look.

Most of the suction cups on the giant octopus's tentacles are still tightly attached to the fishing net and can be pulled off with a slight tug.

It took some time to remove the fish net that was entangled by the giant octopus and the fish net that was entangled by the giant octopus, and replaced it with a smaller water tank to hold it.

Secure the water tank to the back of the bicycle.

He found a big bucket, put the two red groupers in it, and took it to the county town to sell it to Chen Yaozu.

Chen Hui pedaled his bicycle so fast that sparks almost flew, and he arrived at the state-owned hotel as fast as he could.

Chen Hui stopped, adjusted his breathing, and then shouted inside: "Chen Yaozu!"

Chen Yaozu came out quickly after hearing the noise.

Seeing Chen Hui panting, he asked in confusion: "What's wrong? There's a dog chasing you on the road."

"How dare a dog chase me? Isn't that a dog meat hot pot delivered to my door?"

"I have money chasing after me, but it's worthless if I die."

Chen Hui said this and handed the bucket to Chen Yaozu.

Chen Yaozu took the bucket.

He leaned over to look behind Chen Hui again, and a smile lit up his face, "Are you selling this thing to me?"

"I still have a use for this thing, so I'm borrowing it to use in your freezer."

"Uncle Yaozu, can you lend me the freezer in our hotel to store this stuff for a few days?" Chen Hui asked.

"wait for me a while."

Chen Yaozu neither agreed nor refused. He just said something and turned to go into the restaurant.
