Chapter 155 We Dare Not Say
Pei Yuanbai was holding his breath, wanting to find a new supplier, so he locked himself in the room for an entire afternoon, and he actually found one.
The fish farmers this time were an elderly couple. Their relatives heard about Pei Yuanbai looking for fish and wanted to ask.
Pei Yuanbai originally didn't want to come because of a middleman, but it was close to the town and it only took an hour and a half to go back and forth.
Now that we are here, this hour won’t be a big deal.
The person who contacted Pei Yuanbai was not local. After the four of them arrived at the village, they were confused and didn't know where to find him.
Fortunately, there were a few children playing at the entrance of the village. Xia Anan and her friends successfully found the village chief's house. After explaining their purpose, they successfully found the fish seller.
"I didn't expect that big bosses would come to the village now. In the past, we had to go to the town to find bosses to sell the fish we caught."
The village chief walked in front to lead the way. This village was much better built than Boss Wang's previous village. The roads were repaired and there were murals painted on the walls along the streets.
"They are both very hardworking. They keep the fish pond very clean. It's behind the village and you can't see it from the main road."
The four of them walked around several times and finally saw a fish pond.
Unlike the two fish ponds I had seen before, the weeds around the pond had been cleared and some crops had been planted, which made me feel a lot more comfortable.
This kind of place would be comfortable for fish, not to mention humans.
This is Xia Anan’s ideal pastoral life.
"Wait here for a while. I'll go call them. They should be working in the fields at this time."
After the village chief finished speaking, he trotted off to look for people, and the four of them waited on the side of the road.
"This fish pond is not very big. I'm afraid we have to find another one." Pei Yuanbai squatted on the side of the road, his face full of melancholy.
Xiaoling picked a handful of dogtail grass on the roadside and made a little rabbit for Xia Baobao.
"If it's not enough, just find more. Even if I give you ten fish ponds, you still can't finish them in one day!"
Xia Anan nodded, "Yes, don't worry, we can try to use sea fish later. We are just starting our business now, and we don't have any connections. When our fish balls become popular in the future, people will naturally come to us."
Not long after, the village chief came back with the owner of the fish pond.
After catching the fish out of the pond, Pei Yuanbai quickly finalized the deal and, with the help of the village chief, signed a contract with the owner of the fish pond and paid a deposit.
When I gave the money to the couple, they were a little bit unbelieving.
"Why don't you hurry up and thank the boss! You don't have to worry about this fish pond anymore. Half of the money has already been paid!"
Pei Yuanbai stopped them and said, "Why thank you? Just ensure the quality of the fish and keep it well during this period of time."
Xia Anan and her friends were about to leave when a tattered tricycle blocked their car.
A man got off a tricycle and trotted towards them.
"Didn't you say you would take our fish? Why aren't you taking them now?"
When the other person got closer, Xia Anan realized that it was Boss Wang.
The village chief was stunned, looked at Pei Yuanbai, and asked: "Boss Pei, what does he mean by this?"
Boss Wang sat on the ground and said, "Brother, you don't know. He wanted to buy my fish, but he didn't want it anymore. A boss came to ask me before, but I didn't sell it to him because I was waiting for him. Now he suddenly doesn't want it anymore. What should I do?"
Xiaoling felt that she didn't perform well after she went back home yesterday, and now she has her chance.
She rolled up her sleeves and took two sips of water to moisten her throat. "How dare you come up to me? We have agreed on the price before and are about to sign the contract, but you want to raise the price again. There are so many people here today, please give us your opinion!"
Xia Anan didn't expect to meet such a shameless person, and she couldn't help herself for a moment.
"You said that a boss saw you and didn't sell the fish before. Could it be that you raised the price temporarily and drove the boss away like this time?"
Boss Wang hesitated for a long time and couldn't say a word: "You, you are talking nonsense! Anyway, you have to buy my fish!"
To be honest, he was a little regretful. Thinking that the fish pond would soon make money, he invited his brothers to drink together in the evening.
He was so happy that night that he accidentally got drunk. He didn't know who said that people coming from Beijing were very rich, and that his fish was so good that the price should be raised.
So when Pei Yuanbai came to sign the contract the next day, Boss Wang was still drunk.
On the one hand, he was too confident about his own fish, and on the other hand, he felt that Pei Yuanbai and the others were being taken advantage of.
But he didn't expect Pei Yuanbai to really say no, and he turned around and left, even blocking him on WeChat.
Boss Wang, who had just regained consciousness, realized that he had heard from his friends that Pei Yuanbai and his friends were here to buy fish, so he immediately came over on his tricycle.
Xiaoling said to the couple behind her, "He is not trustworthy, so we will not cooperate with him. Look, the deposit is given to you. The village chief is here too, so don't worry."
"We just don't buy your fish, what can you do? Are you going to just rob us of our money?"
When they heard the word "robbing money", the neighbors all stuck their heads out to see what was going on.
Surrounded by so many people, no matter how thick-skinned Boss Wang was, he would feel embarrassed to sit on the ground.
His son will get married in the future, so he can't let people gossip about him.
Boss Wang covered his face, got on the tricycle, and his face was full of unwillingness.
Worried that this man might do something impulsive, Xia Anan mentioned this to the village chief before leaving, asking him to be more careful.
"Okay, don't worry. We have surveillance cameras in the village. He wouldn't dare to do anything."
After saying goodbye to them, Xia Anan and the others were really going back to Beijing this time.
It was difficult to drive at night, so they decided to set out early the next morning.
So, Xia Anan got up at dawn and went to the nearby vegetable market to buy some local specialty vegetables.
After breakfast, the four drove back.
This time, Xia Baobao didn't fall asleep on the road. He sat between Xia Anan and Xiaoling, looking out the window obediently, his eyes full of curiosity.
Xia Anan thought that next time she would take him to take the high-speed rail or train along the coast, where the scenery would be more beautiful.
After sending the two to the gate of the community, Pei Yuanbai and Xiaoling went back first.
When Xia Anan left, she was carrying a small bag, but when she came back she was carrying a lot of things. By the time she got home, her arms were almost broken.
It was nearly ten o'clock and Lu Qingyuan had already gone to work. The living room was no different from the day they left. It was estimated that Lu Qingyuan had not come down for the past two days.
Xia Anan packed up the little guy and prepared to pack up the things she brought back.
But when Xia Anan saw the empty refrigerator, she thought there was a thief.
No, all the chili sauce she made is gone?
