"What a woman's opinion!" Zhang Laosi shook his head and gave a few more copper plates, they will definitely work hard when the time comes, and they will help them catch a few more fish, and they will be able to return to their roots when the time comes.

Zhang Laosi: "Don't worry about this, anyway, the chief won't lie to me or anything, you go to your mother's house to find five people, and I will also find five people in the family." ”

Of course, if there is a good thing, it is normal to find your own family.

Li went out and went back to her parents' house to find someone, her mother's house was nearby, and she didn't have to go far.

Hearing that helping to do things can have a salary of twelve copper plates, Li's status in his mother's family skyrocketed, and then Li selected five young relatives to take home.

Zhang Laosi went to find Zhang Niu first, this is his cousin, who usually has a good relationship, and the two families often move around.

"Where's the big cow!" Zhang Laosi asked his cousin-in-law who was about to go out.

"Fourth brother, Da Niu hasn't gotten up yet, didn't he help the chief do things yesterday!"

Zhang Laosi, "I want five people to help with things, so I thought of Da Niu, haha, I will pay the salary." ”

"Look at what you said, the family said this, just say anything you need help with."

Zhang Laosi: "This is not good, it doesn't matter for a day or two, it takes a long time to help me do things, so you can take advantage of this." ”

My cousin-in-law thought that she would be able to do a good job in helping in the past, but when she heard Zhang Laosi say that she would do things for a long time, she asked, "Fourth brother, what good things have you found, and you want so many people to work?" ”

Zhang Laosi didn't hide it, this kind of thing can't be hidden, and he is not afraid of others competing with him, he has a fishing net in his hand that the chief master has credit, and he definitely has an advantage over others.

Zhang Laosi: "Cousin, don't you know, the chief has allowed the people to catch fish, and the chief has purchased a large number of big fish, and a thousand catties of fish can have a hundred dollars." ”

"There is such a good thing! Then I'll call the big cow out. ”

Hearing that a thousand catties of fish can have a hundred yuan, my cousin thought that Da Niu could do it alone, but there were no tools, and she didn't know how long it would take to get enough for a thousand catties of fish, so she gave up the idea of letting Da Niu do it alone, so it was better to let Da Niu come out and listen to his thoughts.

Zhang Laosi was waiting outside, not entering the house, Da Niu's family often came over, so he didn't need to be polite.

Zhang Niu came out, don't look at him as Da Niu, in fact, his body is worse than Zhang Laosi, "Da Niu, I won't be polite to you, help me catch fish and give you twelve dollars a day, and promise three meals a day, how about it, do you want to come over and help." ”

Zhang Niu didn't think so much and agreed, such a high salary is looking for it, as for why not catch fish by yourself and sell it directly to the chief, then there must be tools and technology, he knows what kind of fish catching skills can be made by farmers, and he can catch up to 100 catties a day, and it is not ten cents to sell to others!

Zhang Laosi quickly found the other four people, and everyone was very simple and followed Zhang Laosi to work.

Zhang Laosi is asking everyone to cut a 50-meter net, and then on one side of the net, every three meters to tie a log as a buoy, so that when the net fish, the net will not sink into the water.

Li returned to his parents' house and brought back five people, and then eleven people were busy tying buoys to the fishing nets.

At this time, dang, dang, dang, the gong sounded, and after everyone inquired, they knew that the chief was in Shenshi, according to the people who came to inform him, that is, at five o'clock in the afternoon, the volunteers would pay the people who went to Liu Town to help with things, and there was going to be a celebration banquet, so the people who helped to do things could go to the banquet.

Zhang Laosi sighed, the chief was generous, and invited everyone to a banquet, when he was in Liu Zhen, he had already been invited, and now he is coming again, Zhang Laosi can only sigh at the generosity of the chief, as for whether this is too loser, this Zhang Laosi can't care about it, the chief invites you to a banquet, what do you have to say.

When everyone was busy, a volunteer came to find Zhang Laosi.

"Hehe, Master Jun, you're looking for a small one."

The volunteers said directly: "The chief is going to hold a banquet in the afternoon, you know! ”

"I know, I know, I just heard about it."

The Volunteers "need a lot of meat to hold a banquet, especially fish, and the chief must get thousands of catties of big fish before you apply for it, otherwise the banquet will not be possible." ”

Zhang Laosi was a little stunned, the chief was about to use the fish so soon, and hurriedly promised, "Don't worry, the little one knows where there are enough big fish, and he will definitely send the big fish to the chief before the time." ”

The Volunteers nodded, "Then you can get busy, I've already informed you." With that, he walked back.

Zhang Laosi, "Everyone hurry up and get ready, the chief will use the fish later." ”

Zhang Niu, "Fourth, okay, let's go." ”

Zhang Laosi and his entourage set off, led by Zhang Laosi, and hired five ox carts behind him to pull fish.

After driving for half an hour, Zhang Laosi took ten people and five ox carts to a river that flattened out, and the river calmed down here, and Zhang Laosi had seen a lot of fish here before.

Zhang Laosi said, "Da Niu, you and Li Mu can swim in the water, you go down to the river together, pull the fishing net and swim in the water like this, we will pull this side on the shore." ”

Zhang Laosi gestured with his hands, and asked Da Niu and Li Mu to do it according to his method, and by the river, he saw that there were a lot of big fish fluttering in the river, and he thought that he could catch a lot of big fish.

Big Bull" OK. ”

Take off the sackcloth, and Li Mu pulled the fishing net according to the method Zhang Laosi said, swam to the river, and after the fishing net was straightened, he swam back to the shore, and with the fishing net retracted, one by one the big fish jumped out of the water, and then fell back into the water.

"Big Niu, Li Mu, hurry up, hurry up, the fish is going to escape."

The two men in the water also picked up their speed, but pulled the increasingly heavy fishing nets, and the speed was different from that on the shore.

The two of them were still more than ten meters away from the shore, Zhang Laosi watched the big fish jump out of the fishing nets, it was really heartbreaking, this is all silver!

Zhang Laosi: "You two go down and help." "The two of them have reached the shallow water position by the river, and they are desperately dragging the fishing net, but unfortunately it is useless, there are too many fish in the fishing net, the more weight but the greater the shallow water position, it is no longer two people can drag.

As the nets are retracted, schools of fish become denser and jump in an attempt to jump out of the net.

It was up to the rest of the people to go down and help drag the nets to the shore, and they wanted to drag the nets ashore with the fish inside, but they obviously overestimated their strength, and they didn't know how many fish there were, how could eleven people be dragged ashore.

Zhang Laosi shouted, "Two people grabbed the fishing net and were let go, and the rest of the people entered and threw the fish on it." ”

After saying that, he jumped into the school of fish, reached out and grabbed a big fish of at least twenty catties, regardless of the struggle of the big fish, and dragged it to the shore with difficulty. Seeing this, the others followed Zhang Laosi into the water and dragged the fish from the fishing net to the shore, and soon there were a bunch of big fish piled up on the shore.

As more and more big fish were dragged to the shore, the weight of the fishing net was reduced a lot, and the four people worked together to drag the remaining fish of at least 500 catties to the river.

Everyone felt collapsed, it was too exciting just now, and it was the first time for everyone to see so many big fish.

Zhang Laosi saw a good start, the first time he fished, he caught so much, it was a miracle, looking at the inconspicuous fishing net, Zhang Laosi sighed, the chief's things are good, if the fishing net made of hemp rope was like that just now, it would have been broken a long time ago!

But this net has nothing at all, and it is very strong.

Zhang Niu asked, "Fourth, you found it in this net, it's so easy to use." ”

Zhang Laosi said with a smug smile, and took off his sackcloth by the way, "This is given by the chief, but this net owes the chief five hundred taels of silver." ”

Everyone looked at Zhang Laosi in surprise, and was shocked by his boldness, five hundred taels of silver, he Zhang Laosi really dared to ask for it, but seeing that the fishing nets were so strong, everyone felt that it was worth the price.

There were at least 5,000 catties of fish in the net just now, and the fishing net was not broken, if it weren't for the lack of manpower of more than ten of them, they could directly drag the fish up.

Zhang Laosi looked at the large pile of fish, and then looked at the five ox carts that followed, as if the ox carts were not enough.

There was no choice but to fill the five ox carts first, and then let them drive the ox carts back first, and then let them go back by the way, and tell Li that they were hiring ten ox carts to come over, and that there were still more than half of them piled up by the river.

This is not a way, it has been piled up by the river, and it will not all die later, Zhang Laosi asked everyone to make a big pool of mud by the river, with a look of 20 square meters, and then throw the big fish that are not dead into it.

At the beginning, he caught at least 5,000 catties of fish, Zhang Laosi was even more happy, so that next time he could earn a lot of money soon, 5,000 catties of fish, that is, 500 copper coins, enough to give the wages of relatives who came to help with things, and then netted a few more fish, all of them were earned, of course, some of them were returned to the chief, if there was no fishing net, how could he catch so many fish so quickly!

The chief is really his fourth nobleman.
