The Hunter's Lively Wife-Chapter 170 - Confusion
Chapter 170: Chapter 170 Confusion
Chapter 170 -170 Confusion
“Mother, is there anywhere in our village that sells fish?”
Su Yunjin responded with a question instead of an answer.
Mrs. Shen became even more puzzled, “Yunjin, what do you need this information for?”
“Mother, please tell me quickly,” Su Yunjin urged impatiently.
Mrs. Shen looked at her daughter, perplexed, “Yunjin, are you confused? Where would there be a place selling fish in our village? If we want fish, we catch them ourselves from the river!”
Such excitement!
Su Yunjin had forgotten all about it.
The body she now inhabited had grown up in the Su Family’s village.
Indeed, there was no place selling fish in the village, and even if there was, it would only be when someone caught more fish than usual and took them to sell at the market. Normally, any fish caught would be eaten at home for nourishment.

“Big Sister, why are you asking about where to buy fish? Our family doesn’t buy fish, right?” Su Xiaobao was very puzzled, not understanding why his big sister would ask about a place selling fish.
Su Ningxiu, the second sister, was also confused, “Yeah, Little Sister, what do you need that information for? If you like to eat fish and we’ve run out at home, then we can just go and catch some from the river. There are so many fish there; we’ll never catch them all.”
Moreover, their family was so poor at the moment.
They also didn’t have the money to buy any.
The method that Su Yunjin thought of to make money involved fish. Just now, while watching her mother prepare a fish, she suddenly thought of making Pickled Fish Sauce with fresh small fish.
Pickled Fish Sauce was fragrant and delicious. Once prepared, it could be served steamed or fried and used as a seasoning in cooking. Just a spoonful of fresh fish sauce would make meat and vegetable dishes smell incredibly appetizing.
Ordinary fish weren’t valuable, but turning them into Pickled Fish Sauce was a different story altogether.
Pickled Fish Sauce tasted exquisite, and Su Yunjin believed that if she took the sauce she made to sell at the market’s restaurants, she could get a good price for it.
As long as there was a profit to be made!
The restaurant shopkeepers had no reason to refuse.
Besides, she was the only one who knew how to make Pickled Fish Sauce; once she started selling it at the market, wouldn’t she be able to dictate the price?
With a sly smile, Su Yunjin smiled like a clever little fox, “Mother, Second Sister, I won’t hide it from you, the money-making method I’ve thought of is related to fish!”
“Related to fish?”
Su Ningxiu ventured cautiously, “Little Sister, are you planning to catch fish in the river to sell?”
“Yunjin, if you’re really going to catch fish, then Father will go with you,” said Su Zhongshi, who had no other special skills but knew a bit about fishing.
“Second Sister, Father, the idea I have is indeed related to fish, but it’s not about catching and selling them from the river,” she said.
Going to the river to catch fish and sell them would take until who knows when to save up two taels of silver.
After Su Yunjin said this, her parents and siblings all looked bewildered simultaneously, “Yunjin, if it’s not about catching and selling fish, then what is your idea?”
Making Pickled Fish Sauce, Su Yunjin thought to herself that if she tried to explain her plan to her parents now, they probably wouldn’t understand, so she said, “Father, Mother, can you tell me where I can buy fish? Once I’ve made the product, you’ll understand what I’m planning.”
Although there were no places selling fish in the Su Family’s village, the neighboring Qin Family’s village did have a fish pond, which was dug by the Madam of the Fuman Building.
At first, the fish pond wasn’t that big, but later on, the Madam had it expanded several times over, and now it was the biggest fish pond in their region.
Thanks to the Madam’s reputation and influence in town, and the size of their fish pond, almost all the restaurants and inns in town got their fish supply from the Qin Family’s pond when they needed it.
Second Sister Su Ningxiu said, “Little Sister, if we’re talking about a place where fish are sold, then that would be the fish pond at the Madam Qin’s in Qin Family’s village. Not only are the fish from her pond plump and tasty, but she also sells them at a reasonable price!”
