Chapter 280: Chapter 273: Buying Shrimp
Translator: 549690339
“Miss, I can’t reduce the price for these prawns much, US$ 1.4 a pound for you, and these mud shrimp I caught myself are not worth much.
And these crabs too, all shells and nobody likes to eat them, I’ll give you a discount, 30 cents a pound, what do you think?” Cui Da looked at Qin Xue somewhat nervously.
Because these mud shrimp are small and have almost no meat, and the crabs are also mostly shell, he felt a bit reluctant to sell them to Qin Xue.
He didn’t know why he had this feeling, but he just felt a bit guilty.
“Okay, pack them all up for me. In the future, if you catch these shrimp, bring them to the research institute up ahead and say they’re for Qin Xue from Chu Molin e s house, they’ll help you pass on the message.” What Qin Xue told Cui Da were crawfish.
“Ah, miss, are there people who want these too?
There is no meat in these, I just caught a few casually when I went to catch shrimp and crabs.” Cui Da looked at Qin Xue’s expression, wondering why she seemed so happy about these shells. Could this girl be somewhat foolish?
They had caught and eaten them before when they had no rice to cook at home, but there was no meat at all, and they tasted very fishy and unpleasant.
If Qin Xue knew, she would definitely say, you are the foolish one, such delicious food and nobody wants it, fishy because you don’t know how to cook it right?
It’s true that these crawfish have little meat, but what you eat in crawfish is the flavor. In the future, a small plate of these will cost tens of dollars.
“Yes, I’ll take as many as you can catch.” Qin Xue planned to set aside some space in her world to raise these crawfish and rent a pond to raise them when the time was right.
Isn’t it said that her twin brother doesn’t have a job? In the future, let father and mother raise crawfish, brother sell crawfish, and there is no need to open any restaurant or stall. At that time, she has the first-mover advantage, who’s afraid of not making money?
As for her sister, who is reportedly still in school, there’s nothing for her to worry about temporarily. Just like that, in a moment, Qin Xue had arranged the future jobs for several people in her family.
“All right, miss. My name is Cui Da, and you can rest assured.
l, Cui Da, promise you that 1 will definitely catch the best ones for you.” Cui Da thought he was really lucky today.
Not only did he sell all his goods, but he also found a steady sales channel for the future, so his wife and children would be able to eat their fill.
Cui Da excitedly assured Qin Xue of the quality of the goods.
“That’s good, pack up all of these. As for future shipments, I’ll adjust the price according to market changes.
If I find any substandard goods, don’t blame me for turning my back on you.” Qin Xue thought it was better to clarify these matters up front.
“Miss, rest assured, I, Cui Da, dare not say about other things, but 1 have never done anything to ruin my own credibility, even though I just started learning to do business.” Cui Da said with an embarrassed smile.
“I can tell.” Qin Xue nodded.
After Cui Da packed up the shrimp, Qin Xue took out US$ 30 and gave it to Cui Da.
“Miss, here’s your change.” Cui Da handed Qin Xue 50 cents.
Qin Xue glanced at it but didn’t take it: “Uncle, use it to buy two candies for your child to eat.” Qin Xue had just learned from their conversation that Cui Da had a seven or eight-year-old child.
He said the older one died of illness because they had no money to treat him, and the younger one was born to provide company for the couple.
“Miss, I have money, you should take it.” Cui Da was embarrassed to take the 50 cents, which could buy 1 kg of mud shrimp.
“Take it, it’s not much money, just don’t despise it.” Qin Xue said as she carried the packed shrimp away.
Cui Da looked at the 50 cents in his hand and then at the receding figure of Qin Xue. If only someone as kind had helped when his older child was sick, the child might not have died.
It’s not much, but this 50 cents warmed Cui Da’s heart..
