My 1995 Small Farm - #687 - Vol 3 Chapter 678: Discriminate against us
These words really pierced Chen Ling’s heart.
There is a saying that goes well, playing with things never leads to despondency, writing books to express one’s feelings as one grows old.
Even Yu Qian, an old boy, wrote two books after he reached middle age.
It would also be a good thing for him to write something he likes and read it when he is old or when his children are older.
Maybe it can be passed down for several generations.
Chen Ling thought beautifully in her heart.
“Brother Chen, are you at home? Let’s buy fish!”
A few people were sitting idle, and shouts came from outside.
Chen Ling knew as soon as he heard this that the two little devils Li Zhongyi were here again.
Chen Xiaoer also sneered and said to everyone: “This is giving money to Fugui again. Don’t spread the word that Fugui specializes in cheating pen pals and makes it impossible to make friends.”
“You’re at home, come in.”
Chen Ling responded. These two little devils knew that Wang Cunye didn’t like them. In fact, every time they came, they only came after asking in the village whether Chen Ling was at home.
Most of the time I come here for nothing else but to buy fish.
“Ah, everyone is here, hello Professor Zhao, hello Professor Zhong…”
Li Zhongyi and Li Zhongyi had the unique courtesy and politeness of their young days. When they saw the two elders, they hurriedly said hello.
Zhao Yubao nodded and said, “You two love fish so much. How does the fish from the wealthy family compare with the fish from your country?”
“Our country has a lot of fish in the sea.”
Miyoko Chishima smiled and replied in broken Chinese: “But among freshwater fish, Brother Chen’s fish is one of the best. It is the best fish we have ever eaten.”
Li Zhongyi agreed: “If such a good fish is brought home, it will definitely trigger a fish-eating craze.”
The two of them highly praised the fish raised by Chen Ling.
First, it is from the sincerity.
Second, there are garlic as supporting evidence.
Their reaction to other fishes is far less severe than the fish raised by Chen Ling.
It can be eaten or not for other fish.
If Chen Ling raises these fish and feeds them, they will come out to grab food even when they are full.
“Then come with me. There are a lot of fry right now, and I’m too lazy to catch them. They’re all eaten by the big fish. It would be good if you guys can help me reduce the density.”
Chen Ling ignored the good words from the two people, and just glanced at them twice. Seeing that they didn’t have the pale and sick look they saw last time, he tied the old hen under his feet in a basket.
Get up and get the fishing net with the larger hole.
Li Zhongyi stopped him: “Brother Chen, don’t worry, we want to buy some of those high-end fish you raise this time, do you think?”
They also know that Chen Ling’s high-end fish are transported to the city for private cooking and are not affordable for ordinary people.
Although the demand is not large, some people must order it for banquets or private banquets after taking it.
So these demands are also fixed.
“There are quite a few more, but they are more expensive this season.”
Chen Ling glanced at them and held the fishing net on the ground with one hand, waiting for them to make a decision.
He paid Sun Yanhong 30 yuan a catty for ordinary fish and shrimp in the ditch.
The mullet and salmon at home only cost 50 yuan a pound.
The latter two actually look expensive, but that’s about it in calculation.
But if you want to sell it to a kid, it definitely won’t be at this price. Doubling the price is the basic operation.
Besides, winter is about to begin, and fish and shrimp are more expensive in March, which is reasonable.
It’s not that he treats people differently and asks for high prices.
Li Zhongyi and Miyoko Chishima looked at each other. Although there was not much money left in their wallets, they still nodded heavily, “Yes, Brother Chen, we will take as much as you can get.”
This time it was Chen Ling who was surprised.
How can it be that after not seeing each other for a few days, the two little Japanese people are even richer?
Is this fish so addictive to eat?
How can you tell them when they have just arrived in the village?
I felt depressed in the social environment of Little Japan, so I came to the countryside here to find a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters to settle down.
But looking at their spending style, they don’t look like people who come to live in seclusion in the countryside.
“The two kinds of fish add up to over a hundred kilograms, and you want it too?!”
“Yes, we don’t live in the village now, but have moved to the county town. We will have to ask Brother Chen to help us deliver it later.”
Li Zhongyi said firmly: “We will come back in a few days to catch other fish in the ditch in the orchard.”
Miyoko Chishima raised her head and glanced at Li Zhongyi, and immediately nodded in agreement.
You have to buy it even if you don’t have enough money.
Last night, I was injured by a monster in the mountains and fell into the river. In the end, I was rescued by those giant turtles and brought to the shore.
Otherwise, even if they were not injured by the monster, they would fall into the river and drown.
The two of them were very moved afterward.
I have always wanted to come to Chen Ling to buy fish and give the old turtles some delicious food.
It’s a pity that it took a hundred days to break all the muscles and bones, not to mention the arm, and two of the ribs were broken, and they haven’t completely healed it yet.
But I thought that winter was coming soon, and those giant turtles might not come out when it gets cold.
They then endured the pain and came to buy fish.
“Okay, I’ll fish it for you.”
Chen Ling responded and murmured in his heart, “I have never seen anyone so eager to give me money.”
They don’t seem to be afraid of suspicion, and they even blatantly said they would like more fish in a few days.
I don’t know what to do.
It would be a loss to buy it back for breeding at this price.
Thinking in his mind, he moved his hands slowly and opened the barbed wire covering the two ditches where the salmon and mullet were raised.
Then he called Hei Wa to bring the bucket.
He took the net, lowered it and started fishing.
Caught three buckets full of fish.
Using a big pole to weigh it, it was almost 150 kilograms.
Calculated at 100 yuan per catty, this is 15,000 yuan. After calculation, Chen Ling has almost made back the money he spent on the arowana.
“There are so many fish, can you help me deliver them, Brother Chen?” Miyoko Chishima showed a pitiful expression unique to Japanese women, with big watery eyes and a round and pure face…
Don’t say it, don’t say it, it’s really beautiful.
Except it’s a bit fake. “Besides, we don’t have that much money with us and we have to go to the county town to get the money.”
“Well, I’ll send it back to you.”
Chen Ling looked at the time and saw that it was still early. He said to Zhao Yubao and the others, “You guys need to rest at home for a while. I’ll send a fish and I’ll be back.”
“It’s okay, it’s okay, we don’t have anything else to do, we’re just wandering around, just go ahead and do your thing.”
Chen Ling looked at Chen Xiaoer: “Well, little brother, Teacher Wu, please take the puppy back. Just feed it the leftovers when you go back, so that it can be fed.”
“Okay…but Professor Zhong, this is the puppy that Fugui picked up from the Shanmao Brothers Dog Farm. What is he? This is using your dog as a favor. Don’t you care if he asks for money?”
Chen Xiaoer likes to make fun. He picked up the puppy and insisted on saying this.
“We really need it. Next time his dog gives birth to puppies, we have to catch two of them too.”
Old man Zhong said with a smile.
In fact, Chen Ling had already promised to give them two puppies, but they didn’t keep them.
They have been running around on the **** all day long. They have become familiar with them and know that they are one of their own, so they will help them look after their homes.
Secondly, they have people like Shan Mao around. They take care of the dogs in the dog farm after Shan Mao goes out. They have long had enough and are tired of raising them.
Zhao Yubao said to Wu Fei: “Did you see that this bald boy is not a good person? Teacher Wu, please be careful about him.”
Chen Xiaoer immediately shouted: “Okay, Professor Zhao, I gave you all those big meaty buns for nothing, right?”
Li Zhongyi and Li Zhongyi felt slightly sad as they listened to the excitement behind them.
We are all Chen Ling’s pen pals, so why am I like a stranger?
Is it wrong that I am Japanese? It’s not like I did it voluntarily.
He feels injustice for himself in his heart.
After Chen Ling took them out, he went to the livestock pen on the east side to pull out the bullock cart.
Miyoko Chishima saw her companion’s expression, glanced at Chen Ling, and whispered a few words of comfort.
Li Zhongyi sighed: “The prejudices our countrymen have against us are too deep, and our work cannot be carried out at all.”
Chishima Miyoko was immediately indignant after hearing this and said in Japanese: “The Chinese have oppressed our small country since ancient times, and now they treat us with even more contempt and discrimination…”
When the sorrow and anger in the two people’s hearts are at their peak.
Suddenly, a big head poked out of the livestock pen next to it, startling them.
“Ah! What?!”
Turning around, I saw the little green horse looking over with its stupid face, opening its mouth towards the two of them, and moving its lips, as if it were mocking.
It was so weird that it almost knocked the two little devils off their feet.
Chen Ling saw this scene as soon as he came over dragging the cart.
Hurrying to help the two of them, he said: “Don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid, this horse has bad character, and the little kids in the village are often frightened by it.”
Speaking, he took the whip and went to teach the little green horse a lesson.
Of course, this lesson is not a real beating. If you scare the child, he will actually whip him a few times.
What lessons can be learned from scaring little Japan?
“It’s okay, it’s okay. We heard people talking about this horse, but we just didn’t notice it was there, so we were frightened.”
Li Zhongyi’s face was pale, his ribs ached, and his breathing was not smooth.
Miyoko Chishima also hurriedly stroked her chest to calm down.
The two of them were also lucky. They blocked it with their arms, otherwise they would have been kicked by the little green horse, and they would have lost half their lives.
Of course now they did not recognize that the terrible monster that night was the horse.
They just often heard that the horse did bad things.
He bullies children either in the village or in the county. He is more disgusting than some dogs and big roosters.
“Brother loyal? Are you really okay?”
Chen Ling looked at him sweating coldly and wondered, is he so scared?
Then I noticed that his arms drooped unnaturally, and I had some suspicions in my mind.
Li Zhongyi quickly wiped his sweat and forced out a smile: “It’s okay, Brother Chen, let’s go.”
“As long as it’s okay.”
Chen Ling chuckled, beckoned the little white cow over, then drove the cattle cart and loaded up three buckets of fish and drove out.
The two little devils don’t need to be taken care of by him.
The Japanese woman was riding a motorcycle and was driving Li Zhongyi.
Send them to the county town and pay them money in one hand and fish in the other.
Chen Ling was already very satisfied with the money he had earned from the two little Japanese.
Unexpectedly, the little sheep who came back from the car brought him a message. Someone at Sun Yanhong wanted to buy fish fry. They wanted 8,000 fish at a time. They wanted all kinds of fish and the price was easy to talk about.
Eight thousand tails? !
Chen Ling was stunned.
Are you rushing to send him money?
Fish fry in autumn are hard to survive in winter.
Although they are located on the south side of the Daqin Mountains, there is snow all year round, and the river is always frozen. The last two small fry in autumn rarely survive.
It will definitely rot in the water.
But now someone actually comes to your door and wants to buy it?
Chen Ling couldn’t help being stunned when he heard the news.
Then he laughed: “Okay, tell them not to mention eight thousand tails, there are also eighty thousand tails!”
“Uncle Fugui, aren’t you afraid?…” The little sheep was still hesitant.
This child was taught by Sun Yanhong and has a lot of heart.
“What are you afraid of? Boss Tian Hongli and Tian have already done it, don’t you know about it?” Chen Ling smiled and didn’t care at all.
His fry have no secret. They are mutated luminous fish and will slowly degenerate if others raise them.
The key is the issue of water and food.
There is nothing to say about this.
Just like ornamental fish, if the water and food are insufficient and the fish cannot be raised well, no matter how good the species and genes are, they will not be able to develop. It is really uglier than degeneration.
Not to mention that the hair color cannot keep up, the body size will also not grow, and there are many old-headed fish.
So Chen Ling was not worried at all about Li Zhongyi and the two little devils taking his own fish to breed.
Let alone these fry.
I can only say that you won’t lose money if you buy your own fry, and the price is well spent.
But if you want to support yourself to this level and make crazy money, there is no chance. (End of chapter)
