With the purchasing system in hand, he is worshipped as a god by international students

Uncle Red House has a lot of dried fish at home.

While other people were drying their quilts on the rooftop, he was drying strings of fish.

Not only that, he was also very happy to show Qiu Ling the fruits of his labor, and every time he talked about it, a look of pride appeared on his face. Looking at those fish of different varieties, Qiu Ling seriously suspected that he had a collecting habit.

The uncle was very enthusiastic. He fried a few small yellow croakers, sprinkled them with chili powder and Sichuan pepper powder, and the taste was crispy and fragrant. The thin parts of the meat were dry and chewy, making it very suitable as a snack and a side dish for drinking!

If I buy this back, Uncle Wang and Grandpa Wang will be so happy.

Originally, I wanted to buy more goods, but Uncle Red House didn't have much stock, and the quality of seafood from other fishermen was uneven. If the quality could not be the same, it would be unfair to sell it to the little golden eggs.

Qiu Ling decisively gave up on purchasing and only bought 100 kilograms of dried fish. This thing has a strong smell, so she planned to come back to get it on the day she left and then mail it back to Yangcheng.

Sea Girl Hotel.

"Are you leaving the day after tomorrow?" After spending the past few days together, Hai Meizi truly felt that Qiu Ling was very open-minded in her conduct and personality, unlike some tourists who were always complaining and fussy.

She was quite distressed every time she received a guest.

"Although I'm leaving, my companion will continue to stay here." Qiu Ling took out his wallet, "I'll renew his room fee."

"How many more days?"

Qiu Ling thought for a moment and said, "Let's extend it for 10 days for now."

Yesterday, Jiang Chengwei came back and said that he also bought a second-hand house in a small fishing village. It is fully furnished and after the seller has packed up, he can buy some daily necessities and move in.

Sister Hai took the money, suddenly leaned closer, and whispered, "Tell me the truth, are you from the investigation team? Are you here to secretly investigate our town?"

Qiu Ling was stunned: "Why do you ask that?"

"It's just a feeling. You said you were here for tourism, but I think you were here for fun. Your companions left early and came back late every day. Many times they came back with tired faces, as if they had worked all day."

Qiu Ling knew.

The reason for the suspicion was actually because of Jiang Chengwei's classy vibe!

Qiu Ling thought, she didn't exploit the child.

She coughed lightly with a guilty conscience and said, "Sister Hai, you are not right in judging people this time."

Hai Meizi was full of curiosity, "Why is it inaccurate?"

Just as Qiu Ling was thinking about how to argue, she saw Zhang Tieniu walking towards her with a big fat watermelon in his hands, smiling.

"Boss Zhang, are you here to play mahjong with me?" Qiu Ling immediately changed the subject.

Glancing at Zhang Niutou from the corner of her eye, Hai Meizi looked helpless, "Why are you here again?!"

Zhang Tieniu smiled and said, "There are people selling watermelons at the dock. They are very sweet. I will bring one to you.

Do you want to cut it in half and eat it with a spoon, or cut it into chunks and eat it with a fork?"

Sister Hai took a deep breath and said, "I want you to leave my house and go out to eat your watermelon."

"Sister Hai, I..."

"You're leaving, right? Then take care." Sister Hai walked to the door and made a gesture to see her off.

"Then please accept this watermelon." Zhang Tieniu looked at his sweetheart reluctantly.

"I won't accept it! I don't like the watermelon you gave me, but I'm also afraid your mother will come after me and kill me!"

"My mother is my mother, and I am me..."

boom--

Hai Meizi didn't say anything and just closed the door to block the view.

She sighed and turned around to meet Qiu Ling's eyes as she watched him enjoying the show.

She coughed lightly and said, "Don't think I'm heartless. I should reject people I don't like in this way!"

Qiu Ling touched his nose and said, "I didn't say anything."

Hai Meizi blushed and revealed: "I don't hide it. I like good-looking men. My previous husband was so handsome... Zhang Tieniu looks like a stone lump, which does not meet my aesthetic standards.

And his mother, a stingy old woman, can't stand seeing me put on makeup and dress up. She gossips about me to others all day long, saying that I'm an old cucumber with green paint.

God, I'm only 36, I'm still young! I earn my own money and spend it myself, I can dress up however I want! I didn't use her family's money to paint it green, but she still cares about it."

Hai Meizi looked very resentful. She pulled Qiu Ling over and started to complain: "As someone who has been through this, I'm telling you, when you get married, don't look for a man who is easily influenced by others. Look for a handsome and charming man. It's okay for a man to be tough, but I'm afraid he can't make up his mind about everything... If this man... blah blah... right... blah blah..."

Hai Meizi talked a lot, and by the end, even she had forgotten her original purpose.

Qiu Ling returned to the room with a head full of gossip, feeling as if a history of rural disputes was temporarily stored in her brain.

You are really good at chatting.

11 o'clock the next day.

Qiu Ling came to the beach where she had agreed to meet Cao Zhen.

Among the fishermen returning from the sea, the first person he saw was Cao Zhen, who was wrapped tightly and squatting in the shade in a daze. There were two white paint buckets at his feet. When he saw Qiu Ling approaching, he quickly stood up.

"Have you been waiting for a long time?"

"No, I just got here too." Cao Zhen almost came back to his senses, forgetting to control his voice and blurting out the fish. Realizing something was wrong, he coughed twice and continued in a low voice, "I caught these this morning, they are very fresh, I'll send them here for you to choose from.

Qiu Ling pretended not to notice and glanced into the bucket. There were large and small yellow croakers, dragon fish, a fresh octopus and some sea fish whose names she didn't know.

There are not many of them, including the small yellow croakers, there are only about twenty or so of them.

It looks a bit shabby.

"I bought them together. How much?"

Under the veil that Qiu Ling couldn't see, someone's mouth curled up slightly, "Just give me 150. The day after tomorrow will be the fishing ban period. Today and tomorrow will be the last batch of seafood, so the price will be a little higher."

"No problem, can you provide delivery service?" Qiu Ling paid in cash.

Cao Zhen took the money, his eyes lit up, "Of course!"

Because the journey was too far, Qiu Ling called the tricycle driver and asked him to pick her up. It only cost 5 yuan from the beach to the Haimeizi Hotel.

After arriving at the place, Cao Zhen helped unload the goods into the kitchen.

"If you go fishing again tomorrow, I'll take whatever you catch and send it here." When he was about to leave, Qiu Ling stopped him.

This was the largest order he had ever taken since he started doing odd jobs, and Cao Zhen accepted it despite his excitement.
