Chapter 33 Insomnia
Qin Mahua didn't quite believe it, but couldn't ask anything, so she had to go back to her room to rest.
I feel that my son has been a little strange recently. Is it because he wants to make money and wants to go crazy? probably family is not short of money.
Could it be that he likes some girl and is embarrassed to say it?
It must be so!
She will pay more attention to her son's movements in the future.
Mu Chenze felt a little irritable and couldn't stay in the bedroom, so he ran to the yard to enjoy the cool breeze.
Actually insomnia.
The point is that he can't figure out why he has insomnia...
At this moment, Chu Xuan had finished drinking the Chinese medicine and was lying down.
After a long day, he would sleep on the kang.
Half an hour later, Chu Feng, who was in the next bedroom, put down his textbook, turned off the light and prepared to go to sleep. He whispered, "This Chinese medicine is really effective. My sister doesn't snore much."
Usually he is embarrassed to say that his sister snores so loudly...
At six o'clock the next morning, Chu Xuan had just gotten up and washed up when he heard his little brother's voice.
"Sister, the Chinese medicine is ready, drink it while it's hot."
The Chinese medicine Chu Xuan brought back this time is best consumed once before breakfast and before dinner.
She was very pleased that the little brother took the initiative to boil Chinese medicine for her.
"Xiao Feng, thank you for your hard work!"
Chu Feng grinned, "I don't have to work hard. Sister, you have the hardest work. I got up early today and read a book while boiling medicine. There is nothing hard."
Kindly hand over the sugar bowl.
Chu Xuan loved to eat sweets in her previous life, but now she pays attention to her health. She is already very fat, so she won't eat sweets if she can.
"I can drink it without eating sugar. The Chinese medicine this time is not difficult to drink. Xiaofeng, you are growing up, so if you want to eat sugar, just eat some sugar."
Chu Feng scratched his head in embarrassment, "Sister, I'll just take half a spoonful."
Really hungry for candy! I especially like the feeling of white sugar melting in the mouth, happy and sweet...
"Eat it!" Chu Xuan picked up the Chinese medicine bowl and drank it all in one gulp.
I drank some water to dilute the medicinal taste in my mouth.
I looked specifically at the water tank, which was full of water.
It was the little brother who got up early and played full.
Feeling sorry for him, he said, "I will carry water from now on, and I will wait until you are 15 years old to carry water again."
Chu Feng patted his small body vigorously, "I have strength! There is no problem carrying water!"
Chu Xuan didn't think so, "Wait until you grow to over meters and a half. It's easy to be overwhelmed by carrying water all the time."
Of course Chu Feng wanted to grow taller, but he didn't want to tire his sister, "Why don't we hire someone to carry water?"
In fact, Chu Xuan also thought about hiring someone, after all, washing fish uses a lot of water every day.
Just haven't figured out who to hire yet.
"Xiao Feng, do you have anyone to choose?"
Chu Feng shook his head lightly. They were taught by Feng Chunhua not to associate with other families before.
After the separation, apart from the Wang family, there was really no one close to me.
When it comes to hiring someone to carry water, whether it's a big deal or a small matter, you have to find someone reliable.
Otherwise, hundreds of kilograms of fish may be destroyed in a tank of water.
"Let me think about it again! Go catch the fish first. Come back and have breakfast."
Li Tong had a cart, so Chu Xuan didn't need to bring anything.
Go out and walk quickly towards the pier.
Brisk walking is also a form of exercise.
Ten minutes later, I arrived at the pier panting.
Li Tong has prepared a thousand catties of skinned fish.
After Chu Xuan paid him 45 yuan, he paid an extra yuan and bought two net bags.
I borrowed his longboard cart, hung the net bag on the cart, and headed home pulling a thousand catties of fish.
Chu Xuan's arms struggled to control the cart, and it would fall over if he wasn't careful.
He secretly scolded himself for growing fat for nothing, and it was so difficult to pull a cart.
It took ten minutes to come and half an hour to return.
After I got home and unloaded the car, my arms were shaking so much.
Chu Feng was very distressed, "Sister, you should rest for a while, I will deliver the cart."
Before Chu Xuan could respond, he went out.
After a while, Liu Zhaodi, Gao Meijuan, Wang Shasha, and Wang Mingchen entered the house almost at the same time.
Wang Mingchen held a steelyard in his hand.
After greeting each other, Gao Meijuan taught Liu Zhaodi how to deal with the skinned fish request.
Wang Mingchen and his wife helped Chu Xuan carry fifty or sixty kilograms of grilled fish fillets.
Chu Xuan carried more than 20 kilograms on his back.
The three of them took their scales and net bags and went out.
First, take a carriage to the town, take a bus to the county seat, and then transfer to the city.
Of course, Chu Xuan paid for the travel expenses.
Wang Mingchen didn't have much confidence in selling grilled fish fillets, so he was mentally prepared in advance to help Chu Xuan sell grilled fish fillets by walking around the streets.
Wang Mingchen's daughter-in-law Miao Dacui is very confident, she is a kind and yet shrewd person, "Xiaoxuan, if the grilled fish fillets sell well, can I go to your house to kill fish to earn money in the future?"
Chu Xuan responded without hesitation, "Of course. A warm welcome."
Wang Mingchen tugged on his daughter-in-law's clothes, "Sell the grilled fish first..."
When they arrived at the Pengshi Farmers Market, it was already past ten in the morning and many stalls were empty.
Wang Mingchen had been here before and reminded with a smile, "I'll take you to pay to rent a temporary stall first. Leave the basket here for your aunt to watch."
Pointing to the place to pay.
"Okay. Auntie, please!"
Chu Xuan put down his backpack, took out about a kilogram of grilled fish fillets, and wrapped it in paper.
Miao Dacui waved her hand boldly, "Why are you so polite? Go quickly!"
Neither Wang Mingchen nor his wife asked any further questions, because they had already guessed what Chu Xuan wanted to do.
When they arrived at the payment desk, Chu Xuan presented grilled fish fillets and successfully rented a good temporary stall.
Just the second stall at the market entrance.
Serve with grilled fish fillets.
After a while, the delicious, spicy, tempting and rich smell of fish wafted into the noses of every passerby.
Everyone who passed by bought something.
The retail price is two yuan per catty, and the wholesale price is one yuan and eighty per catty for more than five catties.
Most people bought some of the three flavors and collected more than five kilograms. Chu Xuan and the three of them went out to the stall for the first time. Although they were a little busy, they were all sold out in less than an hour.
Wang Mingchen was shocked, never thought that grilled fish fillets were so small vendors of grilled fish fillets in the town can't sell it at all!
Just when Chu Xuan and the three of them were putting their baskets on their backs and preparing to leave, a market worker hurried over and said, "Wait a minute, fat girl! Are there any grilled fish fillets? I'll buy five pounds of spicy flavor! I've never tasted it so good. Grilled fish fillets."
Chu Xuan was not angry at all when she was called a fat girl. Instead, she looked apologetic and said, "I'm really sorry. They're all sold out today. I'll come over tomorrow and deliver them to you when you rent a stall, okay?"
"Okay! My name is Liu Chao. If I'm not at the toll booth when you come tomorrow, just give me my name and my colleague will call me."
Chu Xuan could tell that Liu Chao had been conquered by her family's grilled fish fillets.
After a few polite words with him, he left.
Chu Xuan did a rough calculation and found that he had earned 160 yuan just now.
After excluding the cost, the net profit is at least 90 yuan.
happy!
Called Wang Mingchen and his wife to go out to the restaurant.
Wang Mingchen and his wife refused to go no matter what, especially Miao Dacui, who was eager to take the car back early to help Chu Xuan earn money by killing fish.
But she heard from her mother-in-law that there was still a batch of skinned fish that needed help in the afternoon.
Chu Xuan couldn't resist the two of them, so he had to buy twenty steamed buns stuffed with pork and green onions to eat on the road.
The meat steamed buns in the city were sold for two cents, [-] taels, and [-] steamed buns cost three catties, a total of [-] yuan.
Wang Mingchen and his wife lamented that the buns in the city were so expensive that they each ate two and refused to eat any more.
In fact, this one is the most expensive and full of fillings. Chu Xuan ate four of them in one go. The steamed buns were even more delicious than those made at home.
Four were reserved for Xiaofeng, and the rest were forced to be given to Miao Dacui.
Miao Dacui couldn't resist, so she had to accept it.
He thought that he would work more for Chu Xuan's family in the future.
After three o'clock in the afternoon, Chu Xuan arrived home.
Just in time for Ji Ping to come over with a cart to deliver the skinned fish.
He whispered, "Chu Xuan, Chenze asked me to deliver a message."
