Reborn in 1940 and survived until the new century

"Isn't this too expensive?"

"Not expensive, not expensive. It's the end of the year. You can pick whatever you want. If they sell out soon, I can go home early to celebrate the New Year."

"Fine!

If it weren't for the New Year's Day tomorrow, I would have to buy some fresh fish for good luck. "

"Yes, otherwise why do you say I sell it cheaply?"

"It's not that cheap. Here, weigh these two fish for me. I'll use one tonight, and I'll cook the other for my daughter and son-in-law when they get home on the second day of the Chinese New Year."

"Come on, no problem."

As he said this, he took the fish that the old lady handed over, and put it on the scale to weigh it.

After a while, he weighed it and said to the aunt.

"Auntie, these two fish weigh 7 jin in total. Just give me 7000 yuan, and I'll deduct the rest."

“Is that right?

Here, this is 7000, count it.”

"Well, you are right. The fish is yours."

"Okay, get busy!

I'm going to check out other stalls!"

"Okay, you guys are busy!"

Then, several women behind the old lady saw that the fish in front of them were good and picked a few one after another.

There was no need to shout at all, and by noon, all four bags of fish were sold out.

In fact, there weren’t many in total. We only selected fish weighing more than two kilograms to sell, so there were only about 300 kilograms of fish.

However, in the end, there were 800 kilograms of fish left, which were sold at yuan per kilogram.

As for the remaining ones, even if you want to sell them at the original price, people may not be willing to sell them.

If you lower the price a little, maybe you can sell them all?

I originally planned to take them back home if I couldn’t sell them all, but I didn’t expect that they would actually be sold out in the end.

After being busy for a whole morning, I made quite a lot of money. A total of 29.5 yuan, which is not a small amount when you think about it.

If I didn't have to go to work during the week and had no time during the half month of December near the end of the year, I wouldn't have earned so much money.

But there is gain only when there is sacrifice, so people should not be too greedy.

Besides, prices are so low now. This is less than 30 yuan. If you just use it to buy eggs, you can buy 295 eggs. Just imagine, if you eat one a day, it will last you nearly 10 months.

When you calculate it this way, it’s really not a small amount. Don’t ask for too much. It’s a business with no capital. It’s enough to make money.

Besides, isn’t selling these fish just a side job?

Think about the fish in the space, that’s the most important thing, okay?

There is one thing, the money that has just been received has not yet warmed up yet?

I just wandered around the market and bought some things, which I quickly spent.

As for whether there was someone following him, he didn't care at all.

Carrying the load, find a secluded place, put the things in the space first, then leave in a hurry, after making many detours, find a place to change clothes, run to the bus location, wait for the bus to come, and leave directly.

Anyway, I won’t appear in this market again within a year or so.

Even if you go into the city, you will go to the shops. Next time you come, unless you are here to sell fish, who will know who you are?

Even if you are just selling fish, to be honest, it only happens once a year, who will remember who you are?

It's such a big market, and I'm not the only one selling fish.

If you only focus on yourself, you may not take yourself too seriously.

When I got off the bus and returned to the dormitory, it was already past two in the afternoon. I was really exhausted after being busy for most of the day.

But being able to deal with the big fish in the space is better than anything else.

I am really worried that putting so many fish will take up too much space.

Fortunately, some of the fish were sold, and the remaining fish no longer needed to be sold.

You can take this opportunity to quickly process the unprocessed fish in the space, especially those weighing less than two kilograms and more than one kilogram, all of which must be made into cured fish.

Fish weighing less than one pound have many bones. If you really can't catch them, just put them in a container and save them for making fish soup later.

As for those small fish that have not been fried yet, you might as well fry them all while there is still time.

Anyway, there is oil available and all the supplies are complete, so we can just get started.

Fortunately, I was alone in such a big yard on New Year's Eve, so I didn't need to worry about other people in the yard.

On the afternoon of New Year's Eve, I did nothing but frying fish and other New Year's goods.

Anyway, you have the space, so even if you fry a lot of food, you don’t have to worry about having no place to put it. You don’t have to worry about frying too much and not being able to finish it, or that it will go bad if left outside. You really don’t need to worry too much.

I was busy all the time and didn't stop until dark. I had a relatively hearty dinner of freshly fried fish and other fried food, and then fell asleep.

There is no entertainment at night these days. If I wasn’t extremely tired today, I might not be able to fall asleep so early.

Besides, I am alone, so I don't need to be like other people. It's better to pay attention to it early on New Year's Eve.

On the first day of the New Year, I was woken up early by the firecrackers outside.

Since you've been woken up, don't just lie in bed. Get up and do other things!

Normally I should go out to pay New Year's greetings on this day, but there are really not many people I know around here. In that case, I might as well stay in the dormitory.

It’s so cold outside, so I’d better stay in the dormitory!

But it’s not that I have nothing to do. I’m taking advantage of the time to do some statistics on the food I secretly eat.

Especially those packaging bags, because we are afraid of being seen by others, we keep them in the space after eating. It would be better to burn them all at once when cooking.

Speaking of which, why didn’t you think of joining us when we were frying the New Year’s goods yesterday?

Forget it, it seems I was too busy to remember it, but it will work today.

Then I found two inconspicuous snacks and brought them back to the orphanage.

Even though Aunt Zhang said you don't need to bring it, it's still a courtesy anyway.

Another reason is to shut other people up so that they don't say anything annoying later.

Logically, it would be best to bring a few bottles of wine, but on second thought, forget it!

You have just started working, so don't try to show off. Even if you have money, you can't show it too much.

As for sending wine to Uncle Zhang, I'm sure there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. Why bother pretending to be the boss when everyone is here?

Think about how time flies. This year is already 54 years old. According to the birthday I told others, isn’t I almost 17?

When I first came to Beijing, I was only 11-12 years old. Five years have passed in a flash.
