MTL - Back To the Small Fishing Village In 1982-Chapter 460 The prettiest guy in the market (updated)
Chapter 460 The most beautiful boy in the market (updated)
The tractor was wobbly along the way, and there were big and sharp turns on the mountain road from time to time. Everyone was staggering, but it didn't affect their happy chat.
Xiao Zhou who drives the tractor is the son of the previous old Zhou. The father and son often drive the tractor to and fro on mountain roads, and the roads are very familiar.
Because it was dark, relying on headlamps and flashlights, the road conditions were not very clear. It took about three hours to enter the city and the road was level.
Zhou Da pointed out the road and the general direction, and the surrounding scenery gradually changed from barren to low-rise houses. It didn't look much different from their countryside, except that the roads were better and smoother.
Everyone couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, thinking that there was something different in the city.
Zhou laughed loudly and said, "I haven't reached the city yet. After dawn, you will definitely open your mouths."
Everyone is noncommittal.
"It will take a few minutes to arrive at the market, it's almost here."
"It will be there in ten minutes."
The road is flat and deserted, and the tractor is going faster.
While passing through the city, although the night was dimly lit, they still saw a few tall buildings, all of which were as Zhou Da said, looking at the tall buildings with their mouths wide open, flashlights shining everywhere.
"Look, let me tell you that you will definitely open your mouths after reading this. The houses in this city are tall, right? There are several ten-storey buildings here, which look beautiful during the day. They are completely different from our countryside, and the roads are also very The cleanliness is unmatched in our town..."
Zhou Da was spit there, and excitedly told them how tall the houses in the city were, how bustling and lively the city was during the day, and the others were very cooperative...
Ye Yaodong couldn't help laughing when he heard it, and felt a little emotional in his heart, but when he came to the city, everyone felt like he had traveled a long way.
No wonder there is a saying that if you want to get rich, build roads first.
At this time, the city hadn't expanded yet, and the city was actually only a little bit bigger. Within ten minutes, they saw that a large yurt seemed to be surrounded by an open space in the distance, and many flashlights gathered around it. Not a lot.
Everyone stood up excitedly and looked into the distance.
"It's here, it's here."
"Is this right here?"
"finally reached."
"A lot of people, so many people in the middle of the night."
As the tractor slows down, the noise gets closer.
Many carts were parked in the open space around them. The carts were full of goods, people were standing around them, and there were many tractors.
Xiao Zhou also found an open space, stopped first, and asked them to get out of the car to see the situation. The goods were not in a hurry to unload now, and the other cars were also full of goods, but many of them were covered with cloth. Nothing to sell.
7 people jumped off the tractor like dumplings. They all looked at the surrounding environment a little strangely. Because they were not familiar with it, they all looked around after getting off, and listened to the people around them in silence.
Because Zhou Da had been here before, he also volunteered to chat with the people around him and inquire about the situation.
Knowing that the rules haven’t changed, and it’s still two o’clock to go in, everyone is relieved.
Ye Yaodong listened to the chatter of the people around him, and probably knew something about it, so he relaxed and chatted with the people around him.
An old man with razor clams on a cart saw them as if they were here for the first time, and answered their questions simply.
As the time approached, there were more and more carts around, and a few more tractors, all of which came from all directions.
The queue also formed a long line, Ye Yaodong took out the boiled eggs in the cloth bag, secretly stuffed one for the old man selling razor clams, and then went back to his own people.
After being surprised for a moment, the old man also held it in the palm of his hand and put it in his pocket. He went up to them and told them that they had better find a booth near the entrance of merchants.
They were stunned for a moment, then they understood again.
The entrance where they lined up is different from the merchant entrance. There are two openings.
When the time came, the rain cloth was also rolled up at the door of this super-large yurt, and the lights inside were brightly lit, and the lights came out instantly. All the people in line pushed their goods in and began to occupy the booth.
After being able to enter the arena, Ye Yaodong and the others were also excited.
Because they have too much goods, it’s inconvenient to carry them, and they can’t drive the tractor in, so the number of people is divided into two groups, three people go in line to get the booth, and four people guard on the tractor, and then borrow the market after getting the booth. The ground row truck pulls the goods in.
The market is exactly as Zhou Da said, the place is huge, but very simple, a table is equivalent to a booth, there are numbers written in red pens on the table, and the goods they brought in are piled behind the table.
If you don’t have enough baskets, or if you need a basket, go to the corner to get it yourself. The market also has it prepared, which is specially used for loading and weighing.
There were so many of them, they simply occupied two positions. The position near the entrance of merchants had been occupied a long time ago, so they could only choose the one closer.
Looking at the actions of other people, I also followed suit, and took out the goods in a basket, so that people who came to wholesale could see what you were selling.
At this time, everyone also saw each other, what other people around were selling.
It really opened everyone’s eyes. There are a lot of deep-sea goods that are rarely seen in their wharfs, such as deep-sea tiger head fish, Polly fish, horse head fish, large hairtail, pipa shrimp, all kinds of sea bream, green sweet red There are also whole baskets of sweet grouper and tuna, and there are several golden baskets of large yellow croakers displayed at the stall, valuable and cheap, everything you expect.
Everyone was there, looking around, and some were walking around and looking at other people before the merchants came.
Ye Yaodong and the others also took a basket of their respective goods, poured them upside down and placed them in front of the table, and then they also took turns to go shopping around, and stopped by the transaction point to learn about the current market conditions of scallops, and they also talked to others who were interested. The stall owner chatted a few words.
When they came back, their eyes were shining brightly, and they were all very excited.
"It turns out that the scallops in the wholesale market are 3-5 cents more expensive than our purchase point. The price has been reduced and they are said to be beautiful. There are also 30.6 cents, and there are also 30 cents. It's worth the money here."
"You can't think like this. People have to make money at all costs. Otherwise, wouldn't retail sales be better? But it takes more time to sell and the sales are slower. There must be room for people to make money. It's just this stuff, it's not easy to catch, it's a bit rarer, otherwise Shellfish are not very valuable, didn’t the old man just say that his razor clam can only be sold for a dime.”
"That's true."
Everyone was so excited that they were gearing up, feeling that this trip was the right one, and they could sell some more money to go back, and they could open their eyes.
"I really have to walk around and have a look. There are also a lot of fish products that we have never seen before. I just brought in a fish that I don't know what it is. It is so big and it looks rare."
"Yes, that fish is huge and flat, similar to that flounder."
"I saw it too. It should be a big flounder. That one weighs at least a few hundred catties. It's so scary. It feels bigger than the giant grouper that Adong caught before."
"This must be a big fish in the deep sea. I don't know how to catch it, but I can catch such a big fish."
"I found a treasure, so the big fish will definitely sell for a lot of money, tsk tsk tsk, there are so many good products in this market..."
Ye Yaodong went out for a stroll earlier, but he really didn’t see the fish they mentioned, so he quickly asked, “Where is the fish you mentioned? I didn’t see it when I went out.”
"It's booth 158, in that direction, you can go and see for yourself."
"I'll go and have a look, I'll learn a lot."
The stalls around are also talking about that fish, as if that fish has taken the top spot in the wholesale market today.
Before he got close, Ye Yaodong saw the huge flounder from a distance.
That’s right, that one is a flounder. Although it is huge and two meters long, it is still a flounder when it turns into ashes, but the species is different. This is an Atlantic flounder.
Although there were many people around the stall, which blocked part of the view, but it had a relatively long fish body, he still saw it. He walked a few steps forward and listened to the discussions of others by the way.
"There are still plenty of big fish in the high seas! This flounder is really big."
"I've never seen a flounder this big in my life."
"I have never seen such a big fish! It must be two meters long, right? Have you measured it?"
"It's definitely longer than me."
"Measure, two meters to one."
"Sai Linmu, is it so big?"
Ye Yaodong listened to other people's comments, and knew that this fish was caught from the high seas. He observed this fish carefully. The two eyes are on the right side of the body, and the left side of the body is smooth and white.
Logically, this fish should have appeared in the European market, or the Russian market, but somehow it appeared here.
He looked around, and other people were still pulling in baskets of goods one after another, and they were all piled up on the stall on the other side of the fish.
Seeing more and more people around him, he walked back after seeing the excitement, but he had an idea while walking on the road, the flounder was not an obvious live sign advertisement.
It is the most beautiful boy in the market now, and those sellers think it is rare. Those merchants and fishmongers heard that there is a flounder more than two meters in the market, why don't they all come and have a look, take a look?
The stalls that are next to each other can be wiped out?
He took a few steps back in a hurry, talked to others, and quickly replaced the stall with a truck on the ground, taking advantage of the fact that there was still a vacancy diagonally opposite the flounder.
Anyway, there is no rule that if you occupy a booth, you cannot replace it, so he took advantage of this loophole.
Others also thought about it, and they all hurriedly changed positions, but the position at the entrance is still the best.
Not long after they changed their positions, people came in for wholesale one after another. Many people rushed to the local market to open the door for the morning market. These seafood had to be sold in wholesale while they were fresh.
This one was made up last night, and there were two more in the night. I originally wanted to post the three chapters together, but everyone urged me to release it first.
