Chapter 288
After driving about 500 meters to the side, Shen Fei and his team finally put down the traps again.
After all the traps were put down, they sailed back to the village.
Today's harvest was good, and the five big octopuses were all left in the reef area. Without the piglets to guide Shen Fei, he was too lazy to put down the trawl net and sailed back to the village at full speed.
It took nearly an hour for Shen Fei and his fishing boat to return to the dock of Qicai Village.
After parking the fishing boat at the dock, Shen Fei asked his two sons who had just pulled the traps to rest, and he drove a tricycle to ask Zhao Youcai to bring equipment to collect the goods.
Today, they didn't have much seafood in total, and most of the fish and shrimp were still alive, so Zhao Youcai had to prepare the bucket and aerator.
On the way to Zhao Youcai's shop, Shen Fei suddenly heard the voices of the three little ones next to him.
"Dad!" x3
The three little ones ran towards the tricycle excitedly. Beside them were two dogs, Da Huang and Da Hei. After the two dogs, there was Wu Qiujin who had just arrived last night.
Seeing this, Shen Fei stopped the car, looked at the three little ones with a smile on his face, and asked them:
"Do you miss Dad? Why are you here at the ferry?"
"Yes!" The three little ones all smiled brightly and shouted loudly.
Shen Fei was very happy to hear that.
At this time, Wu Qiujin stepped forward and said:
"I asked them to take me to the village, and they brought me here. Did you just come back from the sea?"
"Yes, I just came back. You wait here for me, I will ask Brother Cai to collect the goods at the bow. You can see what seafood you want to eat, and we will go to the bow to pick it up later. You can pick whatever you want to eat."
Shen Fei said with a smile.
The three little ones jumped up happily when they heard that they could choose any seafood.
Although the seafood their father brings home is always good, they feel more accomplished and satisfied when they pick it themselves.
About ten minutes later, Shen Fei brought the three children and Wu Qiujin back to the fishing boat.
Behind them, Zhao Youcai, Lin Fushui, and Lin Fushan dragged two carts with a large barrel and an aerator on them.
"Go aboard and sort them. There are more fish, shrimp and groceries today." Shen Fei said to Zhao Youcai and the others with a smile.
Zhao Youcai and the other two laughed. For them, more is better! The more they have, the more money they make.
The three of them went aboard to sort the seafood first, while Shen Fei followed behind and carried the three children one by one onto the fishing boat.
Even though the fishing boat had already stopped at the shore and the gangplank was ready, Shen Fei still didn't dare to let the three of them get on and off the boat by themselves. He had to carry them aboard himself to feel at ease.
After carrying the three little ones onto the fishing boat, Shen Fei looked at Wu Qiujin and said:
"You..."
"I'll do it myself."
Wu Qiujin replied, and followed their example, stepped on the springboard, and got on the fishing boat in a few steps. It was not difficult.
Seeing this, Shen Fei smiled and said, "I want to say, be careful..."
He didn't mean to carry Wu Qiujin on the boat. She was so grown up, how could she be treated the same as the three little ones?
Hearing this, Wu Qiujin was also slightly stunned, her face slightly red, "Oh oh."
Thinking carefully, it seems that she really misunderstood, Shen Fei didn't reach out just now...
"Wow! There are big crabs again! Dad, can this big crab stay? I want to give it to my mother."
Meng Meng saw a big blue crab weighing seven or eight taels, and asked Shen Fei with a pair of watery eyes.
She had told Wu Qiujin many times on the phone before that the big crabs her father cooked were delicious, and she wanted her mother to come and eat them next time. Now she finally had the chance!
Hearing this, Shen Fei smiled and said, "Of course, this big crab, Dad will take it out for you separately."
He picked up a net bag, caught the big blue crab separately, and put it in the net bag.
"Ah?!" Wu Qiujin on the side was slightly stunned, and hurriedly said, "No, no, no, no need to leave the big one for me."
In her simple concept, when you go out to sea to fish, you should sell the big and valuable ones, and keep some small fish and shrimps for your family to eat.
How can you pick the big ones to eat? The big ones should be sold for money!
"It's okay, just a few crabs, it doesn't matter."
While Shen Fei was talking, he had picked up seven or eight big blue crabs and swimming crabs and put them in the net bag. These were all he was going to take home to eat.
"Oh, this." Seeing that Shen Fei not only did not sell the one he just bought, but also picked several more to keep, Wu Qiujin was stunned.
Are all the fishermen on the beach like this?
"Dad, what is this?" Niuniu asked Shen Fei, holding a soft and bouncy sea cucumber in her hand.
Shen Fei smiled and said, "This thing is called a sea cucumber, it's soft and bouncy,This is good for your skin. Dad will make a few for you at noon."
While the father and daughter were talking, Zhao Youcai and the others also noticed the four baskets of sea cucumbers next to them.
Zhao Youcai smiled and said, "Sea cucumbers are good, very nutritious, and they are also delicious when roasted."
"Uncle Cai, how much do you charge for this sea cucumber per pound?" Shen Wentao asked directly.
He was still more concerned about the price of sea cucumbers.
Hearing this, Zhao Youcai explained, "Sea cucumbers need to be dried before they can be sold. For sea cucumbers just caught from the sea, I charge 2.3 yuan per pound."
2.3 yuan per pound, this price made Shen Fei a little surprised, it was much lower than he expected.
However, judging from his long-term cooperative relationship with Zhao Youcai, Zhao Youcai should not cheat him, and it is very likely that the price of this sea cucumber is like this.
"Okay, 2.3 yuan per pound is 2.3 yuan. I'll pick some and take them home later. "
Shen Fei didn't think much about it. He picked more than 20 to keep, and let Zhao Youcai and others take the rest away.
The more than 20 he picked weighed more than 10 kilograms. According to the price of 2.3 yuan, that was 20 to 30 yuan.
Wu Qiujin saw that he left 20 to 30 yuan of seafood while chatting and laughing, and felt that this man was too "generous"!
Zhao Youcai and others didn't feel anything. Everyone was used to Shen Fei's way of keeping seafood. He always kept the good and expensive ones, which was quite normal.
Shen Wenbo asked Zhao Youcai: "Uncle Cai, have you heard of grouper?"
"Grouper? ! Of course I have heard of it. That thing is very expensive. You won't catch grouper, right? ! "Zhao Youcai looked at them in surprise.
At this time, Shen Wentao used a scoop net to scoop up a grouper weighing about 4 kilograms and showed it to everyone.
"Wow! A big green fish! "Meng Meng looked at the humphead wrasse that Shen Wentao had picked up, with a look of surprise on her face.
Niuniu and Xiaoliu also came forward curiously, looking at the humphead wrasse weighing about four pounds.
Shen Fei pulled them back and said with a smile: "The fish is still alive. It will shake its tail and make you all wet. Just stand here and watch."
"Oh oh." The three little guys nodded and looked at the humphead wrasse curiously.
Wu Qiujin also saw this kind of humphead wrasse for the first time, and was also watching from the side, not getting too close.
Zhao Youcai was different. He walked forward with a look of surprise, took a closer look at the humphead wrasse, and laughed:
"You are so lucky! You actually got a humphead wrasse, making another fortune!
Two months ago, my second brother bought one for 320 yuan per pound.
I'll give you 360 yuan per pound for this one. What do you think?"
