Ye Yaodong readily agreed.
However, for the time being, he decided not to start right away.
Beginning tomorrow, he would first collect squid from A Cai for him.
As for the fish products, they would be arranged after the squid jerky was dried.
The small workshop remained bustling and lively, but it was mostly busy during the evenings and at night.
After A Cai finished collecting the goods, he would immediately deliver them for slaughtering.
Late into the night, the bulbs flickered around the workshop, with people going back and forth, slaughtering and drying the catch.
Lin Xiuqing didn’t stay there all night either.
She entrusted her sister-in-law with watching over the place.
After all, the slaughterers were relatives; with so many people around to keep an eye on each other, there was no need for her to stay constantly.
The area was brightly lit, and there were no troublemakers sneaking close.
At most, some curious onlookers would come by, chatting and asking how much they planned to dry that day.
After the peak period passed, they continued fishing for another four or five days, yet the catches grew smaller each day.
The squid season was slowly ending.
They had to rely on trawling nets to catch some goods.
The quantity A Cai brought also steadily decreased.
