Linhai City, a fishing village.
"Brother Hai, give me two carp and one grass carp, bigger and fresher!"
"Brother Hai, I want a catfish. Go back to cook hot pot and choose a bigger and fatter one for me!"
……
Almost every morning, Qin Hai's stall is crowded with people, and there is a continuous stream of people buying fish from him. As long as the fish he sells are sold out before noon, so if you want to buy his fish, you have to hurry up early.
"Breathing..." A woman with a plump figure and full of mature charm rushed over in a big skirt. It was hot in summer. In July and August, the air was even more steamy and hot. She twisted her plump waist and legs, forced herself from the crowd to Qin Hai's stall, shook a handful of sweet sweat with her hands, and gasped for breath.
In spite of other people's strange eyes, she took out a large red banknote from the embroidered pocket at her waist, stretched out her hand, handed it to Qin Hai who was breaking the fish, squinted and said, "My dear brother, give my sister-in-law a big fat fish."
Qin Haigang looked up and saw Li Tingrong's white T-shirt. He couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of saliva. To hide his embarrassment, he wiped a handful of sweat on his forehead with his hand and smiled: "Sister in law, didn't you say that I would send the fish when I was finished working? Why did you come here yourself?"
"Well, you're busy. I'm just fine anyway, so I came here
Last year, Qin Chao, Qin Hai's brother, fell down from the mountain in order to pick herbs on the edge of the cliff. He broke his leg in pieces. After going to the hospital for examination, the doctor said that he was permanently paralyzed in the lower part of his body and could only spend his life in a wheelchair.
In order to cure Qin Chao's illness, his family, which was already in financial straits, owed a lot of foreign debts and was overwhelmed. In order to share the pressure of his family and pay off the debt, Qin Hai, who had just finished high school, did not even go to the college entrance examination. He resolutely took over his brother Qin Chao's stall and sold fish for him.
A year later, Qin Hai became familiar with the business of this fish stall from the beginning, and his business was getting better and better. Because he fished and broke fish every day, as time went by, people became much stronger, and his size grew from 1.7 meters to 1.8 meters.
Because of his good features and some good looks, plus his height of 1.8 meters, the young girls in the village almost look for him to buy fish every day, and even the girls in the neighboring village are scrambling to buy fish from him.
Qin Hai saw Li Tingrong hand over the money and immediately pushed it back: "sister-in-law, don't humiliate me. You can't count on me for this fish. Take it back quickly, or I won't give it to you!"
Li heard that Rong knew his temper, and he always kept his word. As long as it was his decision, ten bulls would not come back.
Seeing that Qin Hai could not defeat him, he had to take his newly broken fish and take back the money. He smiled at Qin Hai and said, "Xiao Hai, come home to eat tonight, and my sister-in-law will cook delicious food for you."
"Ah, good!" Qin Hai answered with a look up. After Li heard Rong leave, he bowed his head and continued to work.
"Villagers, give me two fish!" A harsh voice suddenly reached Qin Hai's ear. Qin Hai was stunned, but he calmly asked, "What fish do you want?"
"Dead fish! Ha ha ha!"
Qin Hai glanced up at the visitor. It was Zhang Quan from his own village. He looked down on Qin Hai because his father was the head of the fishing village. He often used him as a laughing stock.
"Tut tut, what's so smelly! It's so smelly!" Zhang Quan pretended to wave his hand, glanced at Qin Hai with a look of disgust, and said sarcastically: "Some people have been dealing with these dead fish all their lives. No wonder they are the same as salted fish. Their whole body stinks, ha ha!"
Qin Hai didn't say anything, but he was still busy with his own affairs, but could vaguely see the slight protruding veins on his arms, and his face became red and white.
"Why? Angry?" Zhang Quan smiled grimly, cocked his head, put a touch of banter on his face, hugged his chest with both hands, and pretended to be frightened. "I'm so scared! Qin Shiyu is going to hit people, and I'm really scared!"
Everyone nearby knew Zhang Quan's scoundrel, so they stood aside and watched consciously. No one dared to say a word.
Qin Hai held the handle of the broken fish knife tightly and kept shaking. The veins on his arm became more and more obvious.
"If you dare to use a knife, can you believe that I will double the interest on the money I lent your brother?" Zhang Quan scorned a smile, pointed at Qin Hai and said coldly.
Qin Hai's hand with the broken fish knife suddenly loosened.
In order to cure his brother, he borrowed a lot of money from Zhang Quan. The amount of debt is not small. If you add double the interest, you don't know when you can pay back the money. Thinking of this, Qin Hai is heartbroken. Because of the money, he has to bow his head, and because of the money, he has to bear this cowardice.
When Zhang Quan saw Qin Haisong open his knife, he grinned, narrowed his eyes and mocked, "Ha ha! That's not right. Salted fish should have the same posture as salted fish, ha ha!"
Accompanied by Zhang Quan's laughter, he walked slowly to the fish stall and took two of the most expensive groupers without paying a penny. He only glanced at Qin Hai triumphantly, then took the two groupers and walked back on the road. His wanton laughter was still reverberating in the air.
