Anyway, he didn’t have many fish, so he decided to bring them back to the dormitory.
As soon as Yang Xiaolong arrived at the dormitory, Fan Zhengqing returned as well, and the two met face to face.
“You’re back.”
“Yeah.”.”
Feng Zhengqing took the bucket from him and was surprised to see the fish inside. He liked fishing too, but he had never caught anything before. Although he had tried it many times, he had never succeeded.
The dormitory originally had three people, but Liu Yufei had left, and the new employee was a young girl. So now, only the two of them were left.
They didn’t talk much that night. As soon as the sky started to brighten, Yang Xiaolong got up, washed up quickly, and checked the water in the bucket. The air conditioning had made it cool.
Since the fish came from the sea, he didn’t dare to replace the water with tap water. He had worked hard to bring it back, and if any of them died, he would lose out.
Their work started at 8:30 a.m., and it was only 6:30 a.m. now, so Yang Xiaolong decided to take advantage of the time difference and set up a stall at the market.
The small seaside town in the early morning was particularly beautiful, with a gentle breeze carrying the coolness of the waves. The sun had just risen in the east, and occasionally a few seagulls flew by. The fishermen in the town had begun another busy and fulfilling day.
Yang Xiaolong arrived at the market when there weren’t many people around. He went to the same grocery store as before, where the old man was struggling to set up his stall.
“Boss, do you have a small electronic scale?”
The old man turned around and saw the young man who sold fish a few days ago. “Yes, we have. What price range are you looking for?”
“I’ll take a look first.” Yang Xiaolong wasn’t sure, he had never done business before.
The old man’s shop was not big, but there were all kinds of things, from small needles to daily necessities.
Yang Xiaolong looked at a few models and finally chose one that cost 120 yuan. The old man said it could bear up to 200 kilograms, but he didn’t know if it was true or not, and he had never tried it.
With everything he needed, he asked the old man for a plastic bag and carried it with him, murmuring to himself about losing money. Yang Xiaolong smiled but didn’t pay any attention.
