Chapter 300: Fishing for Money in the River
Qin Weiwei and Li Zhengyan went back in the carriage, today is a rare public holiday, and it is only these few days off, Qin Weiwei doesn't want to waste time on other people.
But now that she thought about it, she asked, "You say, will the emperor believe what I say?" ”
"Believe it or not, it's a thorn in the heart." Li Zhengyan smiled coldly, as long as it wasn't Li Zhenglin as the emperor, he didn't care.
Qin Weiwei lifted the curtain of the carriage and happened to pass by the river, and many people in the river were cleaning up the dirty things inside.
Careful is indeed a little careful, this is just a rough look, these people seem to be a little slack.
"Look at them." Qin Weiwei pointed outside, and Li Zhengyan also took a look.
There are boats coming and going on the river, and there are three or two soldiers standing on it salvaging things, but it seems that nothing has been salvaged in the end?
Qin Weiwei asked, "Are they really salvage?" ”
Li Zhengyan didn't have much interest, and lowered the curtain, "I heard that outside the city, many people have been recruited to help salvage together, and these soldiers are all happy." ”
"No wonder there aren't many things in each basket." seems to be diligent, but in fact lazy, these people are really enough.
"Li Yanlin is in charge of this matter." Qin Weiwei suddenly remembered.
Li Zhengyan sneered and said: "In previous years, it was like this, and when the nearby fishermen were gathered, they were all fishing, so they naturally wanted to help clean up the river." ”
It's a good time.
She's worrying about how to make trouble, but now she'll send it to the door herself.
"Zhengyan." Qin Weiwei listened to the past.
Thirty kilometers away from the Imperial City, the main river is shallow and about three or four meters, and all the soldiers or fishermen who come are very good at water. Good swimmers drown, everyone has a rope tied to them, and even if they fall, these people can climb up along the rope, at least safely.
The weather is getting colder, especially on the river, and the cold wind is swishing, and every fisherman's face is gloomy.
The government is talking about what they say, saying that in order to make it more convenient for you to fish, there will be such an annual cleaning of the river.
Actually? The soldiers sent by the government rested on both sides of the river, and as the weather grew colder, they simply lit fires. Anyway, they were bored, and these fishermen were all good at fishing, so these soldiers let them catch fish by the way, and one by one they found a branch and poked the grilled fish to eat.
Fishermen fished out a lot of things here, deposited them at the bottom of the river, and there was a lot of silt in them, and they emitted a foul smell. One of them looked at the fishing boat with disgust, "Look at those people, they always say that it is good for us, but now it is good, we are starving and cold, and they are eating and drinking and having fun in it by themselves." ”
Fisherman A said: "It's like this every year, and we have to be asked to salvage, how can these soldiers be as good as the Li family's army, in previous years, the Li family's army also helped us, this year's prince supervised, and the Li family's army naturally can't join." ”
"Alas, it's better to be left." Fisherman B sighed again, these soldiers, they were all angry when they saw it, and some of them took out a few sips of wine, and everyone felt comfortable on this kind of day.
"You say, let's tell Zuo Xiang about this, will we be better?" In addition, when the fisherman heard their words, he slowly leaned over and discussed it together.
"Tell Zuo Xiang what to do, it has been rumored in the market, Zuo Xiang married Miss Qin, and the prince lost his temper." The fisherman Ding waved his hand again and again, and hurriedly began to gossip, saying, "The prince liked Miss Qin before, but Miss Qin was unwilling. ”
"If it's me, I also like Zuo Xiang, where will I like what prince." The fisherman smacked a few times,
Fisherman B immediately laughed and said, "You don't pee on yourself." You don't have to pee, you can see how ugly you look when you look at the river. People will take a fancy to you, no. ”
"Phew!" Fisherman A took a sip.
The fisherman slowly pulled the things he caught, and he sighed: "If you don't say it, I don't know if you have seen Miss Qin, beauty, it is really a beauty." Miss Shen, who is said to be the first beauty, is nothing, and she can't compare at all. ”
"It's just nothing compared to anything." The fisherman Ding helped pull things, and there was another discussion with these people, "You don't know, because Miss Qin got married, the Qin Mansion was very kind, and every shop in the Qin Mansion gave away steamed buns for free, for ten consecutive days, ten cages a day." Priority is given to the poor. If you are thinner, or you are sick and have no money to eat, you will also have a meat button. ”
"You said that this is still useful, we have been there a long time ago when we got up early and were greedy for darkness." Fisherman A laughed.
The soldier sitting on the river embankment heard that he was laughing and chatting, and he couldn't care about chatting anymore, so he quickly stood up and shouted: "What are you talking about!" Work hard, work hard! It's because you chat every day that the construction period has been delayed for so long! ”
The fishermen immediately shut up, scolding in their hearts, they were all foxes and fake tigers, obviously helping them do things, but in the end they were drinking by themselves, and they were the only ones who were busy.
"It's ...... Money? The fisherman's eyes were delighted, and he found a few copper coins in the mud.
"Really!" The fisherman was overjoyed, and the two of them had just fished out the money.
It was unheard of before.
"Let's see, if there's anything else." The fisherman Ding looked at the fish he had fished out before, and he actually turned out a few copper coins.
"Really! We're looking for it too! Fisherman A and B hurriedly rummaged through the things they had found, and sure enough, they also turned out more than a dozen copper coins.
"Really! Let's move on! ”
This thing is still strange, I have never caught these in the past, why did it suddenly happen today?
Maybe it's because I've never checked it before, so I can't tell if I've turned it out now.
"It's not just you, we have it too!" The fishing boats that were a little farther away heard about it and began to look for it, but they didn't think that there were really copper coins.
When they shouted, they were all very light, for fear of being discovered by these officials on the embankment.
If you find out, you might even grab money.
The soldiers sitting in the rows on the embankment didn't hear them, but they saw that they were all looking for something. These people have also finished eating the grilled fish, and there is nothing to do but chat.
"Well, you say, what are these people looking for?" Soldier A looked weird, and these people were looking too seriously.
"It doesn't matter what he's looking for, it's not going to be money." Soldier B took a sip and laughed repeatedly, where is this, this is the river, all the dirty things in Kyoto are here.
"No, these people are looking so carefully, look, there are a few people who look at us here from time to time as if they are on guard." Soldier C also realized that these people were too vigilant and that something was wrong.
Soldier A held the knife in his hand and said fiercely: "It doesn't matter what they fished out, none of these people will want to leave for a while, and they will be searched one by one." If there is really something good, our brothers will give it away! ”
