Chapter 45: Fishing Rods and Fish

Fang Yi and Wang Xiaojie stared at each other with wide eyes.

After a while, Fang Yi patted the stone wall dissatisfiedly: "Look at what, look at your sister, hurry up, go to work!" Strive to build this sailboat in two days! Hurry up and go back to your own house and find your mother! ”

Wang Xiaojie pursed his lips: "Brother Dongliang, didn't you find that there is one person missing?" ”

"Huh?"

Fang Yi glanced around, only to find that Di Renjie was nowhere to be found early in the morning.

Fang Yi was slightly stunned: "What about people?" Could it be that a wolf came last night and took him away? ”

"Hahaha!" Wang Xiaojie couldn't help laughing, "The wolf is coming, if you want to bite you, Brother Dongliang!" ”

"What do you mean?" Fang Yi looked at Wang Xiaojie dissatisfied.

"Uh...... I mean...... Master Di saw your fishing tackle at the entrance of the cave last night, and Lord Di is a keen fisherman...... Maybe...... Master Di took advantage of the time to go fishing and have a good time! ”

"Let's go, let's see!"

Fang Yi and Wang Xiaojie took their tools and quickly walked towards the vicinity of the reservoir.

Sure enough, Wang Xiaojie was not wrong, at this moment, Di Renjie was indeed sitting next to the reservoir and fishing.

"Hey...... Bub! You've finally taken the bait! ”

Di Renjie excitedly caught a big fish.

After putting the big fish in the net pocket, Di Renjie heard the footsteps behind him, and with Di Renjie's IQ, it was not difficult to judge that the people were Fang Yi and Wang Xiaojie.

"Haha! Brother Fang Yi, your fishing rod is so useful! Fine Hook ...... Unique construction ...... It's amazing! The old man has never begged anyone for anything, can you give this fishing rod to the old man? Just assume that the old man owes you a favor! ”

Fang Yi couldn't help laughing.

Owe me a favor?

Why do I want you to be a fool and owe yourself a favor? What can you do with a fool's favor?

Is it possible to count on this favor, and when he unfortunately suffers from some mental illness, he can mix a group purchase price when he goes to a psychiatric hospital to see a doctor?

Although he had a feeling of sneering at Di Renjie's favors, Fang Yi still didn't care too much about just a fishing rod.

"Don't say anything unkind, if you like it, I'll give it to you!"

"Thank you, Brother Fang Yi, the old man owes you a favor!"

Di Renjie couldn't help but smile when he heard Fang Yi agree.

Fang Yi quietly looked at Di Renjie's back, and suddenly laughed: "Di Renjie, Wang Xiaojie, let me ask you a question!" ”

"Brother Dongliang, what's the problem?"

"Brother Fang Yi, just ask! We are not outsiders, we don't need to see outsiders, the old man is a cultural person, happy to answer other people's doubts! ”

"I ask you! A fishing rod or a basket of fish, which one would you choose? ”

Wang Xiaojie is a straightforward man, and quickly answered Fang Yi's question without thinking: "Of course it's a basket of fish!" ”

Di Renjie hesitated for a moment, then nodded, exactly the same as Wang Xiaojie's answer: "Of course it's a basket of fish!" ”

"Why?" Fang Yi was slightly stunned.

If Wang Xiaojie chooses a basket of fish, Fang Yi feels that he can understand it, but a cultured elder like Di Renjie would actually choose a basket of fish, which is a bit unexpected by Fang Yi.

Are these two so superficial?

It is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish!

Don't you understand such a simple truth?

A fishing rod can catch a lot of fish, and as long as it is well maintained, it can be used for almost a lifetime.

And the fish will be gone after eating, and you will starve after eating, not to mention what to breed with a basket of fish, and you will starve to death when the fry are still born!

Wang Xiaojie scratched the back of his head and laughed: "Brother Dongliang, I'm a rough person, I'm good at fighting, fishing...... I'm really a layman! Even if you give me the best fishing rod in the world, I don't think I can catch half a fish, and expect me to catch a fish? You might as well expect a fish to be blind and get into my net! ”

"......" Fang Yi was speechless for a while, and then looked at Di Renjie with a puzzled expression, "What about you?" Why would you choose a basket of fish? It is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish, don't you know? ”

"Hahaha!"

Di Renjie laughed incomprehensibly, and then answered the doubts in Fang Yi's heart word by word.

"Brother Fang Yi, if it was before coming to this desert island, I would definitely choose a fishing rod, but after coming to this desert island, I changed my mind, I would choose a basket of fish!"

"Why is this happening?" Fang Yi was slightly stunned.

"A basket of fish, I can sell more than half of it, and keep the remaining half for myself to eat, sell these fish, use the money, I can get several fishing rods and a pair of mahjong, and then I rent the fishing rod to others, collect rent, and build a simple mahjong parlor by myself, and then ask them to play mahjong while fishing, and I can also get dividends from playing mahjong, isn't this much higher than the value created by a fishing rod?"

Fang Yi was instantly dumbfounded.

What's the ...... This idiot......

He's really financially minded!

You are so financially minded, what kind of actor should you be to make movies!

is simply the richest man in the world who has been delayed by acting!

Fang Yi sighed heavily: "Wonderful! Wonderful! Lao Tzu will give you this fishing rod now, and after a year, Lao Tzu will not be able to share a huge amount of money, and Lao Tzu will definitely beat you to death with a merciful and compassionate palm! ”

Di Renjie couldn't help but shrink his neck.

Who is Fang Yi?

That's the person who is regarded by Wu Zetian as the future pillar of the Great Zhou!

It is not an exaggeration to say that if nothing else, Fang Yi will definitely become a pillar of the country in a year, or even a powerful minister above 10,000 people under one person!

Fang Yi said that it is really possible to beat himself to death with a great merciful palm! This is really not bragging!

And it is foreseeable that even if Fang Yi kills himself, with Wu Zetian's favor and trust in Fang Yi, Wu Zetian will only blame Fang Yi for a few words at most, and will not punish Fang Yi too much.

This means ...... Even if he was beaten to death by Fang Yi, it would be in vain, and it would be useless to go to the king of Hades to complain.

Thinking of this, Di Renjie panicked and quickly put down the fishing rod in his hand.

"Hahaha, Brother Fang Yi, oh no...... Brother Fang Yi, I'm just joking with you, don't take it seriously! ”

"Hahahaha!"

This was the first time Wang Xiaojie saw Di Renjie look so embarrassed, and he couldn't help laughing out loud.

Fang Yi didn't know Di Renjie's innermost thoughts, and thought that Di Renjie was joking with himself, after all, he was just joking with Di Renjie.

Deep down, Fang Yi instantly had a lot of good feelings for Di Renjie, the little old man.

This little old man...... Although he always looks superior on weekdays, he is also a person who can afford to joke, and he likes to deal with such people.

Fang Yi smiled, took out two handfuls of melon seeds from his pocket and handed them to Di Renjie and Wang Xiaojie: "Okay, okay, no kidding, let's work!" Wan'er will send us steamed buns in a while! ”

"Let's go! Get to work! ”
