Episode 170
You carried him on your back the whole way?
No wonder you're tired.
I'm surprised you made it here all alone.
Why didn't Kota bring you here himself?
Kota has his work to do.
Oh, sure... All he does is cause his parents trouble.
He isn't hurting for money. He's a college graduate, too.
He could have gotten a good job
since his father is in the House of Peers.
He could've gone far in the world by now.
Kota's father is in the House of Peers?
Kota's mother and I are cousins.
But she married high, and I married a fisherman.
So we didn't associate much after marriage.
But Kota loved this place since he was little.
He'd visit us often while he was in school.
He still comes by once in a while.
He's a good man...
Too bad he got caught up in what he's doing.
He is a good man...
He's always on the side of the weak and the poor.
Maybe so...
That's why I can't refuse his requests.
If he thinks highly of you, you must be a good person, too.
I'll do all I can for you.
When Oshin awoke,
she didn't know where she was at first.
It was a room unfamiliar to her.
And Yuu was gone, too.
Her new life here was about to start.
She remembered that she was at Hisa's house.
What will her days here be like?
Oshin suddenly felt very unsure.
Yuu?
Yuu!
I was showing him the beach.
You must've been exhausted.
You didn't even notice that he was awake.
I'm sorry.
I felt so relieved that I slept so soundly.
I'll help you in the kitchen starting tomorrow.
That's my job, and you'll have yours.
But you're taking care of both of us!
All I'm doing is renting you a room.
Kota asked me to find you a house, but I have three sons,
but they're all away at schools in Tokyo and Nagoya.
I'm all alone here, so I have room for you.
Thank you. That's comforting to know.
But I feel I should help you with the chores.
It's my job to care for the fishermen working on my boats.
Otherwise, I have nothing to do.
You'll be going out to sell fish starting tomorrow,
or you won't be able to eat.
Peddle fish?
Isn't that why you're here? Didn't Kota tell you?
You'll buy fish landed by my boats,
and peddle them for profit.
- Peddle them where? - How should I know?
I'm just a fish broker. Your job is to sell them.
How much profit you make is up to you.
There is a lot of competition, too.
You'll have to learn the business from scratch.
It's something you'll have to learn for yourself.
And you will learn whether you like it or not.
Are they all peddlers?
Yes. They buy the fish here, and go out and sell them.
Let's go.
She will be joining you starting today.
Nice to meet you.
Let's continue.
This should be enough for me today.
- That'll be three yen and 50 sen. - What about me?
You're stocking up on all the sea bream?
People need them for celebrations.
You must have some good, regular customers!
You can have all that for four yen.
No, I'll give it to you for three yen and 80 sen.
Without knowing what to do, Oshin was sent out to peddle fish.
Oshin had been a hairdresser and had tackled many other tasks
and she'd had to learn from scratch.
From there, she learned how to do business,
and she had the courage to try new things.
I'll leave now.
Once out in the streets,
she was ready to assume her new duties as a fish peddler.
I have fresh fish!
Would you like some seasonal fish?
Any fish for you?
I've already bought some.
Next time, then.
Would you like \some fresh fish?
Fresh fish! Want some fresh fish?
I've got fresh fish! Would you like some?
You're new.
I just started today.
Sorry, I only buy from our regular peddler.
I'll give you a deal.
She does other things for me, so I can't buy from you.
I see. Maybe next time.
No use selling around here.
We all buy from our regular peddlers.
Okay. Thank you.
We haven't sold any fish at all... What should I do?
Hello.
Does a designated fish peddler come here?
One comes every couple of days.
She's not coming today, so maybe someone will buy from you.
- How about you? - Not me.
The peddler I buy from does me big favors,
like taking things to my married daughter.
I see.
I guess I'd better just give this fish away.
I can't just throw them away.
Take some flounder, and call out your neighbors.
They're still fresh.
Really?
I can't bear to just throw them away.
I'd rather have people enjoy them.
She's giving away free fish!
Have some!
Please, have some.
You were gone so long. Where did you go?
I was worried.
How did you do? You sold them all?
You sure are good!
I figured you'd sell about a third at best.
How did you do it?
