Years: Return to the Leisurely Fishing Village

Chapter 34: Come on, come on, everyone wants to be a matchmaker!

The next day.

Tan Shaoyang got up and went to his uncle's house. The two houses were adjacent to each other and were already being cleaned.

The room had not been occupied for a long time and was damp and smelled musty.

Although the two elders had an accident and left behind this house, no one wanted to occupy it. Usually, Grandma Tan lived there and raised pigs at the same time.

Now that Tan Shaoqing is back and has brought his daughter with him, things will become lively again.

When Tan Shaoyang came over, the two brothers had almost finished dealing with everything. There weren't too many things stored in the room, so they cleared out what needed to be cleared out, cleaned it, wiped it, laid down a mat and were ready to live in.

"It's pretty fast, I wasn't even needed."

Tan Shaobei rolled his eyes and evaded the question, "You are just sunbathing your butt, and you think you are using it as a blanket. Can you be used by me?"

Tan Shaoyang shrugged and answered confidently, "I can't help it. I'm young and I need to sleep well."

Why are you getting up so early?
Since he didn't have to collect the fish, the mute girl's father was showing off and asked others not to collect his fish. He took advantage of the situation and wanted to teach the mute girl's father a lesson, so that he could have a taste of being taught a lesson.

As for finding swimming crabs, cuttlefish and the like, he didn't need to ask them to come, they were delivered to his doorstep.

After all, the mute girl’s father wouldn’t accept them, and these worthless things could just be exchanged for money here. If the villagers wanted to make money, they could only send them to him.

This is perfect. I don’t have to go there early in the morning to watch. I don’t have to wait for the goods. The goods will be delivered to my door. Is there anything better than this?
Tan Shaobei rolled his eyes, not wanting to talk to him anymore. "You deal with this garbage. I'm going to pick up your second sister-in-law. I think she'll be back by now."

After Tan Shaonan lent a hand earlier, he went to check on the fishing boats. He would check the fishing boats before every trip out to sea to make sure everything was safe, so he was not there at this time.

As soon as Tan Shaobei left, the spacious house became quiet.

Tan Shaoyang went into two trips and threw away the garbage that needed to be thrown away.

As soon as he came back, Tan Xiaoqing stuffed 20 yuan into his hand and said, "Old Third, please buy me some rice. I'm going to live here for a long time, and I can't live without rice at home."

"I know you guys care about me as brothers, but I can't push my luck and make things difficult for you."

"With more people, there are more trivial things to do. One or two meals is fine, but if we have to eat at home often, I'm afraid there will be complaints."

"Grandma doesn't allow me to touch water, saying that I have to take good care of myself during the confinement period, otherwise it will easily leave hidden dangers. If you really care about Sister Qing, then bring me some cheap seafood in the future and cook some seafood porridge for me."

Tan Shaoyang made a "tsk" sound and did not delay taking the money she stuffed into his pocket. What she was worried about was indeed a problem. The eldest sister-in-law was okay, but the second sister-in-law might be weird.

"Let's buy fifteen dollars first. You should keep some money with you so that you won't be left empty-handed when you run into trouble."

"When you recover, go fishing. You can always make money."

Tan Shaoyang went home and pushed his bicycle to go to his grandmother's house, but was stopped by Tan's mother. After knowing the reason, she said,
"We still have rice at home. Just bring it over here and then replace it with some new rice when you're done eating it."

Tan Shaoyang nodded and did not refuse. 15 yuan could buy 150 kilograms of rice, and after husking, it would be nearly 100 kilograms of rice, which would be enough for the mother and daughter to eat for a while.

Shell it and take it back home.

"Sister Qing, I've husked the rice for you. There's still half a bag of rice left. Go husk it after you finish eating it. Otherwise, I'm afraid the rice will get infested with worms if you leave it for too long."

"I poured it directly into the rice jar for you."

Tan Shaoqing's eyes were filled with tears. Has she ever received such consideration in all these years since she got married?

Or is it this younger brother who has been with me since childhood who is the most caring one?
"Old Three, do you have a partner?"

"Such a hard-working person needs to find a better partner!"

Tan Shaoyang: “…” How come the topic has unconsciously turned to this direction?
Do people who are getting married like to act as matchmakers?

"Sister Qing, I'm not thinking about getting married right now. I plan to make some money and then think about other things." "You're still healthy, so take a good rest. I won't bother you here."

After saying that, I slipped away. If I didn't slip away, I was worried that the topic would turn to marriage.

Tan Shaoyang had just returned home when Brother Shui came over with swimming crabs. As soon as he saw him, he approached him and said, "Third brother, I got some big swimming crabs. What price do you think you can offer?"

Tan Shaoyang took a look and gave a thumbs up in praise, "You caught this in a cage, right? It's big enough."

Tan Shaoyang collects swimming crabs and sells them to restaurant owners. The owner gives the same price for them, regardless of size. As long as they are fried well, they are all good.

He couldn't sell big swimming crabs for a high price. He couldn't possibly go to the market again just for a few swimming crabs. It would be a waste of time, and he wasn't willing to spend the effort.

"Brother Shui, let me tell you this! I only charge 1 cent for a swimming crab. You are obviously losing money by selling such a big one to me."

"I can't afford the high price, how about I go to the dumb girl's father?"

Brother Shui curled his lips and sat down under the eaves. "That grandson knows that I'm selling you cat sharks, so he's trying to lower the price! He's only offering 1.5 cents. I can't sell it to him even if I eat it."

If he was paid 2 cents, he would have sold it and wouldn't have had to come all the way here.

Tan Shaoyang: “…”

"Brother Mao, the boss only offers 1 cent for it. If I charge a higher price, I will lose money. Otherwise, just be patient and sell it to him!"

"The boss only offers this price because he accepts currency. I can't lose money, and I can't let you lose money. Selling the dumb girl's father is the best option."

"Five more cents is good, let's not be stingy with money!"

The swimming crab is not as big as the blue crab, so don't be disgusted if it is sold for 1 cents. It is definitely impossible to compete with the blue crab in price.

The mute girl's father is a very stingy person and he likes to bargain for prices, but if you want to make money, you have no choice but to be cheated by him.

Tan Shaoyang was too lazy to argue with him. It would be better if he could stock up enough goods. Then it would be exciting.

During this period, some people came to sell swimming crabs, all tied up, some weighing 2-3 taels each, and 4-5 crabs weighing one kilogram.

You don’t make much money, but if you pick it up, you can buy popsicles for your kids. Anyway, no one would miss out on making money.

I’m tired of eating seafood porridge all the time, it would be better to make some money.

If a child finds it, he can save it up and make a new pair of sandals.

Therefore, swimming crabs are also in short supply at the seaside. If adults don't pick them up, children can pick them up cleanly when they see them, and there will be no escapes.

Tan Shaoyang weighed them first, put the tied ones together, and the untied ones with missing limbs were priced half as much.

As everyone knows, seafood will lose its value if its feet are missing.

Although it is troublesome, we still have to tie it up.

In a short while, Tan Shaoyang collected twenty or thirty kilograms, and more came one after another, and he could collect fifty kilograms a day.

At this time, a villager asked curiously.

"Old Third, do you want to collect other crabs?"

There are many other crabs on the beach. If we collect them all, our income will increase.
