In the afternoon, Tang Mingyao continued to read.

"Three Hundred Tang Poems" is a book worth reading carefully and repeatedly, Tang Mingyao read it for two hours, and only read the twelfth poem, with an average of four poems per hour.

This is mainly because he deliberately memorizes the verses in it, and spends a lot of time.

[Advanced Task: Read for two hours, points +10 points.] 】

Today, overall, there is already a surplus of 8 points.

If this progress is maintained throughout the summer, Tang Mingyao can finish memorizing "Three Hundred Tang Poems" before the start of school, and he can read Song Ci again.

Although it is not fast, it can be used for a lifetime.

Of course, it's not enough to just watch it like this, Tang Mingyao is also going to follow the scientific memory method and review today's content tonight, tomorrow, next week, and next month.

It's time to rest.

Tang Mingyao quickly flipped through the book casually, and was about to put it back on the sewing machine.

Suddenly, a flash of green flashed from his sight on the page, causing him to stop what he was doing.

"What's that?"

I slowly flipped through it again, and this time I found it, and it was a pair of stamps, four sheets, with a daffodil pattern.

Tang Mingyao's mind popped up memories of a long time ago.

He remembered these stamps, and he had turned them out of the book back then, and thought they were beautiful, so he cherished them and collected them in his own book, and brought them to school when he went to junior high school, but unfortunately he didn't know if they were stolen by someone, or he forgot where he collected them, in short, he didn't see them again.

But these stamps still started a hobby in his youth, stamp collecting.

I still remember those years, he tore up all the envelopes that his father sent home, just to remove the stamps on them and collect them.

Every time my father sent a letter back, the first thing he did was not to look at the letter, but to see if the stamp on the envelope was not something he didn't have.

When he was most obsessed with philately in junior high school, he would even save money for breakfast to go to the school store to buy a new envelope, because it had new stamps on it that he had never seen before.

It's just that with the development of the times, the popularization of mobile phones, and the rise of the Internet, sending letters is no longer popular, and philately collecting has become more and more niche.

At this time, seeing these stamps, his long-lost feelings were hooked again.

In the middle of nowhere, except for fishing, there are no entertainment activities that can arouse his interest, and it would be good if he could play stamp collecting.

Tang Mingyao immediately returned to his mother's bedroom, rummaged through the cabinets, and turned out all the letters that had been left in the family over the years.

Basically, my father sent it to my mother from out of town.

He opened it casually and read it, looking up and writing: "Dear wife......"

Hey, that's sour!

Tang Mingyao felt that his father called his mother like this was very sour, and on the other hand, he felt that it tasted like dog food.

He focused his attention on stamps, many of which were residential stamps, four # Sichuan dwellings, Yun # South dwellings, and Guang # West dwellings...... 10 cents, 20 cents, 50 cents, 80 cents, and registered mail, with stamps worth more than 1 yuan, are very rare here.

Tang Mingyao found scissors, cut off the envelope behind the stamp, soaked it in water, soaked it in water, and after a while, he gently removed the stamp, washed the glue on the back, and finally dried it, and it became a brand new stamp.

He learned this method from his philatelic classmates.

It is said that professional philately requires a complete set of professional tools, including a stamp album, gloves, tweezers, a plastic envelope for stamps, and a moisture-proof box...... Anyway, it's quite exquisite.

Tang Mingyao used to be a philatelic enthusiast, and he didn't care whether the stamps were damaged or yellowed, as long as they were.

However, since he was reborn once, Tang Mingyao felt that if he could play professionally, he would naturally have more fun.

So at this moment, the first thought that did not belong to the basic needs after his rebirth appeared, buy a set of philatelic tools!

"This is not a basic need, you have to deduct points from the system to buy, although it is not very expensive, but a few tens of points are still required, you have to study hard recently, save some points!"

There is also the question of money.

Dozens of dollars, Tang Mingyao doesn't have it now.

The biggest fortune he ever had when he was in elementary school was the final exam in the township last month, and his mother gave him five yuan for him to eat at noon, and he used it to buy a musket.

After thinking about it for a while, the easiest way for him to make money at this stage was probably to go down to the river to fish, and then sell it at the township market.

Then Tang Mingyao found out that fishing also takes time, and it takes several days to catch a fish for dozens of yuan.

This consumes a lot of his system credits.

Tang Mingyao suddenly felt that setting the system like that before was simply digging a hole for himself. In order to buy something for dozens of dollars, he may have to complete a huge project in order to achieve his goal.

But when I think about it, that's what makes it interesting.

Find the goal, through hard work step by step to achieve it, every time you do something, you can see that you are further away from the goal...... This feeling is exactly the same as the feeling of playing games, fighting monsters, leveling up and doing tasks.

It's very motivating, there's not!

Excited, Tang Mingyao wrapped the dried stamps in old envelopes and carefully stored them. At this stage, there is no philatelic album, so let's deal with it so-so.

Counting the number of stamps he had, not counting the daffodils, he uncovered a total of 23 from the envelope, 9 of which were duplicates.

Quite a lot!

It's a good start.

Tang Mingyao finished the day's schedule with satisfaction and went to sleep.

The next day, Tang Mingyao readjusted his schedule.

When I wake up in the morning, I read for an hour, then spend half an hour to complete my writing tasks, cook breakfast, and then read again.

In the middle, he helped his mother with some housework, and it was not until three or four o'clock in the afternoon that the sun was setting in the west, that he went to dig up a few earthworms in the soil and went down to the river to fish with a fishing rod.

This time, he brought a plastic bag and asked his brother to help him load the fish, promising that after the fish was sold, he would buy him a two-cent sour plum cake.

When it was dark, after two hours of fighting, Tang Mingyao caught more than 30 fish, but most of them were small barracuda that were one finger long, and they weighed less than two catties together.

I went home and smeared it with salt, waited for the sun to come out tomorrow to dry, and sold the dried fish.

"After killing two catties of fish, there is only a little more than a catty left after removing the internal organs, and then dried into dried fish, and there can be four taels of Amitabha. According to the market price in the countryside, a pound of dried fish is 20 yuan, and I didn't even earn 8 yuan in these two hours. ”

Tang Mingyao pinched his fingers and calculated for a long time, feeling that the twenty points accumulated by reading the book for four hours were not cost-effective in exchange for such a few yuan.

It's too inefficient.

Gotta change fish to catch it!

Tang Mingyao's hometown is located in the mountains of northeastern Sichuan, and this year's floods in the middle and lower reaches of the river have not affected them, and the small river is rich in products, crucian carp, carp, barracuda, crab, shrimp, eel, mullet...... The whole nine yards.

Even wild soft-shelled turtles are often caught from the river, and one can be sold for one or two hundred yuan. Tang Mingyao has felt since he was a child that it was an incomparably huge amount of money.

It's just that catching soft-shelled turtles requires not only luck, but also special fishing nets and fishing boats, which Tang Mingyao can't afford now.

So after pondering for a while, he decided to go mullet fishing.
