When Chatting came back again, it was almost twelve o'clock.Chen Zan had already pulled out the roasted sweet potatoes and put them aside to dry. There was not much firewood left, so he burned the fire until it was fine, and a little light was enough.

Tan Tian came ashore covered in steam: "Is there no more firewood?"

Chen Zan nodded: "Are you ready?"

"It's already been put away, and I'll collect it later." Tan Tian threw a handful of firewood into the fire, ran to collect another bundle of firewood, and said to Chen Zan with a smile, "I won't be able to go back until very late tonight. Do you want to sleep first?"

Chen Zan hugged his knees and rested his chin on his knees: "You are like this every night?"

"Ah? No, it's only like this when you're far away from home. Because it's better to release the line later. If you catch the fish too early and let it go, you will die. Sometimes I make a living on the steps of other people's houses and lay a bed on the floor. Take a good night's sleep and go back to sleep when the sky is about to dawn." Tan Tian said lightly.

Chen Zan's eyes were sore and swollen, he sniffed and tried his best to control his emotions and said, "Tanzi, let's stop doing this, okay?"

Tan Tian looked at him in surprise: "What's the matter? It's okay, it's just that I'm far away from home occasionally. I usually sleep at the door of my house until after 11 o'clock before going out, and I come back at two or three o'clock, so I can sleep until dawn." There are more and more people fishing, and there are not many fish caught at home, so they need to travel far.

As soon as Chen Zan heard this, he couldn't control his tears any longer, and she burst into tears: "Stop doing this for me, find something else to do, and stop making money. How old are you, how old are you?" As for the body, what should I do if I stay up late every day and break my body?" When he said this, he was crying. At this time, all adults and children are not sleeping soundly in their dreams. How old is he? The rest time is used to make money, this is not making money, it is simply desperate.

Chatted in a daze, is Chen Zan crying for him? "No, it's okay, I'm in good health, really. Xiao Zan, don't cry." As he spoke, he walked to Chen Zan, reaching out his hand to wipe his tears.

Chen Zan wiped his tears with his own hand, grabbed Chattian, kicked his feet, and beat him with his fist: "Who is crying! You say it's okay, it's okay now, it's okay in the future? You're spoiling yourself so much, look If I don't kill you now!"

Tan Tian put his arms around Chen Zan, who was a little out of control, and pressed his head on his shoulder: "Don't cry, Xiao Zan, okay, I won't do this in the future, I'll listen to you, I won't do it."

"Don't do it again!" Chen Zan yelled loudly, bit his lip desperately after the yelling, not to let his emotions lose control.

Tan Tian was both happy and distressed, happy that Chen Zan cared about him so much, and distressed that he was so uncomfortable for himself.

Chen Zan said again: "Also, don't like me anymore in the future!"

Chatting suddenly felt like falling into an ice cave: "Why, why?"

Chen Zan wiped his eyes again: "You just listen to me. I said you can't like me, so you can't like me. In the future, if you want to marry a wife and have children, you can't like me!"

Tan Tian looked at Chen Zan with some embarrassment, without saying a word, can he not like it just by saying he doesn't like it?If he could control his heart, would he still like him?

Chen Zan said domineeringly: "Did you hear that? Do you agree or not?"

Tan Tian looked at Chen Zan stubbornly, but didn't speak.

Chen sighed, why is this chatting so stubborn. "Tanzi, don't just think about your own feelings, you have to worry about other people's feelings. You like me, even if I don't reject you, can we be together in the future? Have you ever thought about your mother and your brother? , have you ever thought about my parents and my sister? What do you ask them to do? There are so many eyes from the world, their spittle stars can drown us. Do you want us all to be poked in the back? ?”

Tan Tian's eyes gradually softened. He really didn't think so much about these issues.

Chen Zan said softly again: "Tanzi, try to put your attention on other girls, not me. You will find that you can like girls."

Chatting looked at Chen Zan, then lowered his head.

Chen Zan grabbed Chattian's arm, and said pleadingly, "Can you give it a try? Tanzi, I beg you."

Tan Tian raised his head to look at Chen Zan, and nodded with difficulty: "Okay." But his eye circles were wet.

Chen Zan swallowed his saliva with difficulty, trying not to care about his trembling heart, he turned his gaze back, and changed the subject: "Tonight is your last fishing, starting tomorrow, we will stop fishing."

Chatting silently, distracted, there are too many things tonight, he needs time to tidy up, what can he do without fishing?What about the tuition fees for him and his younger brother.

Chen Zan's mind was running fast, and he had to find an easier way to make money than fishing. Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration and reached out to grab Chatian's arm: "Tanzi, I have a solution. Let's stop fishing, let's catch fish instead." .”

Chat looked at Chen Zan puzzled, but didn't react for a while.

Chen Zan said: "Look, if you catch this fish, you have to sell it in the market. Many people in our village also catch fish and sell it. We just buy this fish, and then gather it and send it outside for sale."

"Where to send it?" Chatting finally understood, isn't this just selling fish.

Chen Zan said: "Guangdong or Guangxi, I will go out tomorrow. You can go with me, I am going to find buyers, our food is good, all of them are wild, people in Guangdong and Guangxi are especially good at eating , They must like to eat this. As long as they have this willingness, we are not afraid of losing sales."

Chatting with some hesitation, he asked, "Is this possible?"

Chen Zan said: "Don't worry, it will work for sure. When are you going to pick up the line?"

Chat said: "It's fine now, I'll go now."

Chen Zan said: "Okay." Then he stopped him, "Wait, we will go after eating the roasted sweet potatoes." He picked up the roasted sweet potatoes that had cooled down on the ground and put them in Chat's hands.

Looking at this sweet potato, Tan Tian felt mixed emotions in his heart. Chen Zan said that he was not allowed to like him, but he was so kind to him. How could he control his heart?Forget it, forget it, let him do whatever he wants, he can't like it, he likes it secretly, can't he not tell him.

While chatting about the water, Chen Zan stood on the shore and told him to be careful, because he knew that his mind must be restless when he made such a fuss just now. .

Tan Tianguo nodded absent-mindedly: "It's okay, don't worry, Xiao Zan."

Chen Zan watched him go, his eyes followed the tiny fishing fire in the darkness, he saw him finally returning to the shore in fear, and he let out a long breath.

The harvest tonight was good, there were about ten catties of yellow-bone fish. It would have been a very happy night if it hadn't been for the fuss just now, but neither of them could be happy.Chen Zan helped Chattian put the fish into the oxygen bag, packed the bag, and then walked back together.

Normally, Chat would not rush home at night, just find a place to lay a floor shop and deal with it, but tonight Chen Zan came out with him, he was reluctant to let Chen Zan sleep on the steps of others.

It was almost four o'clock when they got home, and the two of them stayed up almost all night.At the door of the house, Tantian pulled Chen Zan: "Don't go back and call the door, you woke up your parents, go to my house to deal with it, and go back at dawn."

Chen Zan thought about it, did not refuse, and followed into Chatian's house. Both of them were so exhausted that they fell asleep on Chatian's bed with their clothes on.The long-awaited sharing the same bed finally arrived, but he was not in the mood to have a charming dream while chatting. Chen Zan was sleeping next to him. He was excited, but he could only put his hands on Chen Zan's waist and close his eyes. Eyes soon fell asleep.

The next morning, Chatting was going to sell fish, but was stopped by Chen Zan. He wanted to keep the fish as a sample, so that he could discuss business with others.Because people from all over the world call the same fish differently, if you just gesture with people, it's like talking to a duck, how can you still do business.

Chen Zan went to the town to sell train tickets and some ice cubes while chatting with him. The weather was too hot, and fish died quickly without ice cubes.There is a train station in their small town, and there are usually slow trains stopping here.Chen Zan didn't know where the fish was sold, so he just bought the ticket to Guilin based on his feeling, because Guilin is a tourist city with a well-developed catering industry, so the consumer demand for this kind of fish will definitely be great.

Chen Zan's prediction was not wrong. They only sold three or four yuan a catty of yellow-bone fish. In the major restaurants in Guilin, the other party's purchase price reached nine or even ten yuan a catty. , as soon as you change hands, you can earn half of the price.

Chen Zan was not able to sign the agreement with the other party on the spot, although he and chatting are not too small, they look like adults.But his face was still tender, he looked like a child, especially if he couldn't even show his ID card, the other party would definitely not sign an agreement with him.The boss just said, as long as you have the goods, we will accept as much as you want.

On the way back, I couldn't hide my excitement while chatting.Chen Zan and chatted about it. It's not suitable for the two of them to be in their early years. They should ask an adult to support the scene. Moreover, they will definitely not be able to deliver fish after they go to school. They have to find someone to take care of them.

Tan Tian said: "Your parents are busy. My mother can't do it either. She doesn't know how to deal with outsiders. It's not suitable. Who should I call for help?"

Chen Zan thought for a while, this is absolutely impossible to do alone, the two of them can do it during the holidays, but what about after school?Those fishermen continue to fish, if you don't accept it, someone will definitely find a business opportunity and snatch it away.Even if you are chatting with your mother to do it, it can't be done, because someone needs to be there all the time to collect the fish, and the person who delivers the fish has to go at least once every two days.

Chen Zan couldn't help but think of Tantian's father, if he didn't bother, wouldn't it be good for his family to do this?However, if Tan Weimin didn't make a fuss, Chen Zan probably wouldn't even think of finding such a job.

Tan Tian thought for a while: "Xiao Zan, what do you think of my master?"

Chen Zan said: "Master Chen is actually quite suitable, but he can't do it alone. He has to collect fish and deliver fish."

Tan Tian said: "Then let my mother accept it and let my master give it away? This is not acceptable." He immediately rejected it, lonely men and widows, inviting people to gossip.

Chen Zan said: "How about this jar, this matter is considered a partnership between the two of us, and the capital is based on the money we saved in the past. Come and help when you are free. Let my uncle and aunt help here. .After we go to school, they will take care of collecting and delivering fish, and the monthly income will be divided in half, and my share will be given to my uncle."

Chatting with some embarrassment: "Is this good? After I go to school, I don't care about anything else. It's all your uncle's work. I get money for nothing. I feel a little bit like that."

Chen Zan said: "What's the matter? I think my uncle can agree to this matter. You see, there are still ten days before school starts. We will clear up everything for a while, and let my uncle come to pick up the ready-made He will not disagree. My uncle is quite a good person." The reason why Chen Zan sought his uncle was because he liked his character, otherwise why would he not call someone else.

Chatting and thinking for a long time: "Okay, but I don't want half of the profit, I just want a quarter. Your uncle takes half, and we share the remaining half equally. Give it to me and I don't want it."

Chen Zan thought for a while and said, "That's fine, I'll take care of the quarter." It's fine to keep it for yourself, maybe it will be of great use in the future.

Chen Zan also said: "Our most urgent task is to set up a fish collection shop. First, we must go door to door and talk to the fishing masters in the village. The price of the fish collection is slightly higher than the market, five yuan a catty, we will give them Oxygen and oxygen bags are provided for free, and they will definitely take the initiative to send them over. You have to find a house on the street, not on the main street, just close to the vegetable market, and it will be easy for people fishing from other places to come here in the future.”

Chatting was excited by what Chen Zan said, and the two began to plan enthusiastically.The reason why Chen Zan dared to call his uncle and his wife over to help was because it was indeed profitable. As long as he could collect dozens or even hundreds of catties a day, he would not be afraid of running out of money.

Excluding the cost of collecting fish, rent, renting and buying oxygen cylinders, buying oxygen bags, travel expenses, and damages for fish deaths and injuries, on average, you can earn at least two yuan per catty of fish. Jin, that is a net income of 100 yuan, 3000 yuan a month, half of it to his uncle, and more than 1000 a month.If you can receive hundreds of catties of fish a day, it will be even more.

After returning home, the two of them got busy.Chatting is familiar with the town, and soon found a suitable house.The two bought a few huge plastic basins, two aerators, rented a large oxygen tank, and set up a small shop.

Chen Zanhe chatted with cigarettes and went door to door in the village to solicit business. On the first day of opening, he received more than 30 catties of fish.Chen Zan and chatting are not in a hurry. At the beginning, everyone didn't know, but there will definitely be a little less, and gradually there will be more.

Sure enough, a few more people came here the next day, collecting more than 70 catties, and a total of more than 100 catties.Chen Zanhe chatted with the fish, bought some ice from the cold storage, and put it in the oxygen bag. There is no ice in this weather.The first time I went to deliver fish, Chen Zan, Chat Tian and Uncle Chen Zan all went, and called Tan Yang to guard the shop to collect the fish.

This time with an adult, the owner of the restaurant Chen Zan was looking for was finally willing to formally discuss business.Summer vacation is the peak tourist season, and the consumption of yellow bone fish is so high that the supply is in short supply. The price in the Guilin fish market has also risen slightly, so the goods that Chat and Chen Zan take the initiative to deliver to the door are simply timely help.

The other party said that as many fish as you want, you can send them once a day or once every two days, but the interval should not be too long.The price is based on the market price of [-] yuan per catty, and it will be adjusted upwards according to the market price in the future.

With nothing to prove, Chen Zan insisted on signing a written contract with him as a reassurance.

Before the end of the summer vacation, Chen Zan and Chat's fish collection shop was booming.As soon as their shop opened, many people in the village also began to join the ranks of fishing.Chen Zan knew that the craze for fishing would not cool down until around 2000, but there was no need to worry about that, they would have already gone to college by then, and he would find better and faster ways to make money.
