Originally, the plan was to enter the city the day before the Chung Yeung Festival, but after the autumn harvest work was thoroughly handled, all the work at home was basically idle, and now there is an ox cart in hand!
In the end, the whole family decided to go into the city three days in advance, especially to buy another ox cart, so that the two cows have a livelihood, and the family's income will be more, the night before, the family held a meeting, mainly to clarify their respective tasks in the city tomorrow: "The first task of the dog brothers tomorrow is to go to the Hetao outside the city, fish at the fastest speed, how many fish they catch, the fourth and your family try to sell as many fish as possible, and after you find a place to sell, the boss and your daughter-in-law are responsible for sending the fish over, After the fishing, the eldest and your family went to sell the fox skin, if the price is not bad, according to the eldest daughter-in-law said, buy two pigs back, the third tomorrow to see the ox cart, you have the longest time to drive, you should know the good or bad, as long as it is not too expensive, almost buy one back!
The second family, the third family, and the old wife, you are responsible for buying back all the things you want to buy tomorrow, and you also take the children, don't get lost, let the second child be a porter for you tomorrow, I am with the dogs and them by the river outside the city, they enter the city, I look at the ox cart and tools, everyone should try to be as fast as possible, you see if there is anything to add. ”The grandfather said, "Dad, if you buy two pigs, I'm afraid we won't be able to catch up!"
”Dad said: "This is easy to do, if you are optimistic and negotiate the price, come back and call someone, we can drive the ox cart into the city." ”The grandfather said: "Daddy's ox cart has to pay for entering the city, it's not cost-effective, you always watch the ox cart outside the city, and when the time comes, we will help the eldest brother drive the pigs." ”The third uncle said: "If we buy too many chickens, ducks and geese, I'm afraid we won't be able to get much!"
”The second uncle followed and said, "Like your eldest brother, they can't take it back and call someone."
It's really not okay to drive the ox cart into the city, pay some money, pay some money. ”After the grandfather finished speaking, he saw that everyone stopped talking, and the grandmother said again: "This time has been hard, and this year's harvest is not bad, I discussed it with your father, and gave your family 500 yuan, and the children are counted separately, and one child is 10." ”After saying that, the grandmother took out a few cloth bags and handed them to everyone one by one, the adults are happy, and they will not show it, and the children are different, except for Du Yuhui's performance is not like that of children of the same age, it can be said that the other children are crazy shouting and jumping, and at the same time, everyone will enter the city tomorrow full of new expectations The next day, all the people of the old Du family, start cooking early in the morning, after all, after walking so far, you still need to have breakfast, after breakfast, the sky is not yet bright, And Du Yuhui's two brothers don't care so much, they should train and train, and load big earthworm baskets and fishing rods into the car, as well as 2 good fox skins, these are not Du Yuhui They want to do, after they are all done, the grandfather greeted the neighbors and asked them to help take care of the house, the whole family of 15 people, crowded in the ox cart, and also went to Hengyun County to kill the past, the ox cart was followed by the cow, in order to hurry, the third uncle also tried to speed up, and although the family was crowded in the car, But the heart is not excited, if you use time to calculate, around 9 o'clock in the afternoon, the whole family finally saw the Hengyun County in the distance, and then the rice basket of the car was carried down, and then Du Yuhui began to go to the nest, the father helped to put the fishing rod out, the eldest brother helped dig earthworms, the old lady and the fourth uncle's family stayed, others went into the city to purchase, now Du Yuzhu also learned some skills from Du Yuhui, with his help, the two started to fish in less than 20 minutes, 15 minutes, basically every rod moved, with the first batch of fish, the fourth uncle didn't say a word and put it in the fish basket to find a place to sell it with the fourth aunt, and the father and mother were also ready, and the next fish would be sent to the fourth uncle as soon as possible.On the other side of the river, there is also an old man fishing, but the old man quickly noticed the situation here, good guys, the opposite side is lined up with 10 fishing rods, and then see two children are busy, this is not counting, one of the younger children, it looks like a conductor, they keep shuttling between the various fishing rods, every time he starts the rod he has a harvest, only two fishing rods or three fishing rods at the same time, the older child dares to hand, But the big kid seems to be a little lacking in skills, because his success rate is less than 50, if it is a three-rod fish, the two adults are even more busy starting the rod, but there is no harvest, you must know that this old man, has been fishing here for many years, at least he is very familiar with the situation here, but he thinks that he is an experienced old man, and the speed of his fish is not the right child on the shore!
In the end, the old man didn't plan to fish, but chose to be a spectator, yes, he didn't know how the child on the other side was so powerful, and why the fish bit his hook, of course, when changing the bait, it was also a child who was getting it, obviously the old man didn't know that the problem was in the bait, half of the ancient people used rice balls or other things as bait, and few people used the dragon as bait, and Du Yuhui and his brothers raised these dragons, that is really fat and strong!
Why!
Bone dregs and soup!
Du Yuhui not only gave the cow to eat, every time he turned over the soil, he would add some down, at this time, the only thing Liang could do was to cut the earthworm into small pieces according to Du Yuhui's requirements, and then the rod fished, and the father began to send it to the fourth uncle, but what happened next made Du Yuhui find another business opportunity, yes, this way of fishing, we also know, at least in this era, there is no right, and the horse is going to the Double Ninth Festival, and there are a lot of people who go into the city to catch the market, But what about when many people saw the scene by the river!
Everyone will stop and watch, right?
At the beginning, there were not many people gathered, but after a while, Dad just sent a fish to the fourth uncle, and the people who watched the excitement had surrounded the riverside, Du Yuhui looked back at the bait, and actually scared himself, I can't grass Ma Du Yuhui has a plan "Ladies and gentlemen, fresh and plump carp grass carp, the horse is over the festival, Xiao Ke is here to wish everyone more than every year, there must always be such a fish at home during the Double Ninth Festival to have a good color, you have also seen it, Each of the fish in this river weighs more than 2 catties, and the one I caught just now, everyone looks at me and says that 4 catties is estimated to be about the same!
”Du Yuhui shook the fish in his hand and said: "Now I sell live fish for 20 yuan on the spot, the size is not calculated, I don't know if you uncles and uncles dare to bet on their luck!"
If anyone is lucky today and buys me a big fish of 7 or 8 catties, I guess he will have a good omen this year!
It can be regarded as the first fish of this opening rod. ”"What's the gambling method?
Did we watch you catch the big ones and the small ones?
”There was a dry interest in the crowd shouting."
I didn't say that I started queuing now, 20 yuan for a fish, according to the speed of the fish and the order of the queue, I have so many bait, I will also say a word first!
If I get to the end of the queue and I have no bait and no fish when I fish, you can't blame me!
So the uncles and uncles who want fish come to my mother's side to line up and pay for a fish, but I also ask the uncles and uncles in front of the queue not to be too greedy, one person can only buy one, if you want to buy more, you have to continue to line up in the back, here I will say a word first, sorry everyone. ”20 money to bet on the size of a fish, in fact, it is not a loss, the key is that this is with a performance, and at the same time there is a gambling nature, originally everyone watched the play here, a bit of a blind herd mentality, right!
And now!
Since they have been here for a while, some people may not want to buy fish, so the horse is ready to go, but some people look at it is quite fun, but between wanting to go or not, soon some people began to stand in line, and some people were also forced to squeeze in, and the most important thing is that after standing in, many people still have to save face, driven by the herd mentality, soon the team will be completed, and Du Yuhui's side, he is not idle to start fishing for the first time, of course, maybe he is very lucky, when the next fish rises, weighed about 4 pounds, the first person happily came over to pay the money to get the fish, and the people behind laughed and scolded, all saying that he was lucky, and then Du Yuhui started the performance like a marquee When the father came back, he was stunned by the situation in front of him, after all, looking at it from afar, there were a lot of people around, and Du Yuhui asked them to line up not vertically, but horizontally by the river, this one can watch fishing, and on the other hand, you can also queue up, without delay at all, and the people of wàiwéi don't know what's going on here!
There are more and more people coming from behind, and if there is a group of people in the modern market, it is estimated that the later people want to ask what they are selling!
What a penny!
Cheap will be with a lot of people around, and in ancient times it was even more so, we also said before, now the lack of entertainment, see such a way of fishing, even if it is to watch a monkey, show up, give a few copper coins are all because of it, not to mention the nature of taking 20 money to take a little gambling outside!
20 money is really not much for the people now!
And the people who came from behind asked, and the people in front introduced, and then Du Yuhui was a non-stop fish, and some people in the crowd might not be very lucky, the fish they got were smaller, some were lucky, and they got a little bigger, all kinds of laughing and scolding voices were there anyway, and there were a lot of good shouts, and soon it became a landscape."
What are you doing, what are you squeezing?
Want to bet on fish in line. ”A man shouted, "This big brother has borrowed it, and it's my son who is fishing in it." ”Dad said: "Oh I see, rude and rude, big brother, your son is so capable!"
”The man said, and then gave way to his father.Someone next to him echoed and said: "No, I also lived for more than 30 years, and this is the first time I have seen such fishing, I went back to tell my relatives and friends, I guess no one believes it, and I think I drank too much!"
”A man next to him said with a smile: "Interesting, interesting, brother, the gambling fish you just talked about, this is a good name!"
I wonder when they'll come back next time they're done with the bait?
”The man carrying a four-pound fish outside said with a smile: Obviously, this is a benefit, right?
Immediately someone shouted: "When will you come next time my brother gambles on fish?"
”
