Chapter 494: Recruiting an Elderly Son-in-law (2/2)
Houhai Town, located in the east of the mainland, is a seaside town, counting the villages under its rule, there are more than 100,000 people, and it has two large sea ports. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Actually, it is said to be a place of exile, but with the planet as a place of exile, you can imagine the size of this continent.
There is only one royal city on this continent, and that is Wanshou City, which is the core of power on the continent.
The seventy-two domains under his rule were all dispatched by Wanshou City, and Houhai Town was a town under the rule of the forty-eighth domain.
At this moment, on the sea dozens of miles away from Houhai Town, there was a floating figure, this person was none other than Shen Mufeng.
At this moment, Shen Mufeng looked tired, looking at the faintly visible coast, his eyes were full of despair, Shen Mufeng had been adrift at sea for seven days, his physical strength had reached the limit, and the sea area of these dozens of miles was like an insurmountable chasm, and now every time he swam, he had to use the strength of his whole body.
That's right, Shen Mufeng has lost his memory, except that he knows that his name is Shen Mufeng, he doesn't know anything else, and even those means of flying away have been forgotten.
Just when Shen Mufeng was dying and struggling, a fishing boat was getting closer and closer, Shen Mufeng rose hope, kept calling for help, and poured a few mouthfuls of seawater in a hurry.
The fisherman soon found Shen Mufeng struggling in the sea, and hurriedly leaned over to rescue Shen Mufeng.
Shen Mufeng's whole body was swollen by the seawater, his face was even more white and terrifying, and the clothes on his body were all taken off by Shen Mufeng in order to slow down the resistance of the seawater.
And seeing Shen Mufeng wearing weird pants, the old fisherman smiled, went to the cabin and took out a set of coarse cloth clothes for Shen Mufeng, which was the clothes he changed when he went to sea on weekdays, and gave Shen Mufeng a bowl of hot water.
"Little brother, how are you?"
Shen Mufeng shook his head blankly, and the fisherman continued to ask, "Then where are you from!"
Shen Mufeng shook his head again, hesitated again and again, and then said, "Uncle, I, I have amnesia!"
Wang Ying shook his head: "Hey! That's it! I've just gone to sea, you take a good rest first, there is dry food in the package, you eat a bite first, let's go back after fishing!"
"Thank you, uncle!"
"You're welcome, just call me Uncle Ying in the future!"
Shen Mufeng called Uncle Ying, and then staggered towards the cabin, seven days, seven days of wandering in the sea, Shen Mufeng thought about his life experience countless times, but there were not even some fragments of memory, except for his name, only the brilliant five-colored light, and then it was blank.
After eating something, he had all his strength, looking at Uncle Ying who was casting the net, Shen Mufeng felt that he should do something to help this person who helped him.
Shen Mufeng first carefully watched Uncle Ying's movements, and after a while, he understood the skill of casting the net, took the fishing net from Uncle Ying's hand, and began to fish.
Shen Mufeng's strength is extremely strong and very skillful, every time he goes down the net, he can catch a lot of fish, which is more than one time, and it is no worse than Uncle Ying, an old fisherman.
And as if he was tireless, he cast a net and a net, and the speed of closing the net was much faster than Uncle Ying, which made Uncle Ying sigh that he was young and vigorous, and he was alive and well after resting for a while.
In less than half an hour, the fish cabin was full of fish, and at this time, a big fish of hundreds of catties passed out of the water, Shen Mufeng didn't even think about picking up the harpoon next to him, and threw it over directly, and the big fish was inserted firmly, and the speed was fast and accurate.
Uncle Ying swallowed his saliva, he couldn't imagine that this kid would have such a ability.
Shen Mufeng jumped directly into the sea and dragged the dying big fish back.
"Uncle Ying, what a big fish!"
Uncle Ying was happy: "Good boy, he is really a good fisherman, okay, hurry up!"
It's really a full day today, let's go, let's go back. ”
When the boat docked, Shen Mufeng and Uncle Ying set up stalls directly in the sea market on the shore, especially the hundred-pound big fish, which immediately attracted many onlookers.
"Yo Yo Yo! Okay, old man, this big guy, it makes people happy to look at it!"
Uncle Ying smiled hesitantly: "Boss Zhang, I've always kept it for you! I haven't sold it if others want me, do you want it, I'll count you cheaper, you have not been taken care of all these years!"
"Wow, old man, do you think I, Zhang Dafa, am a bad person! How much money, I've covered it all!"
Lao Yingtou thought for a while and raised a finger: "Just give ten taels of silver!"
Lao Yingtou is still very kind, just this big fish is more than fifteen taels of silver.
Although Zhang Dafa's words were beautiful, his eyes lit up when he heard the price, big fish are very scarce, especially such a hundred-pound big fish, which can attract many big customers, and there is no problem at all when it is sold for thirty or fifty taels.
"It's easy to say, isn't it just ten taels of silver!"
After speaking, he directly took out an ingot of ten taels of silver: "Go back and send it to me, by the way, who is this kid! ”
Lao Yingtou smiled slightly: "This is my nephew Shen Mufeng, Boss Zhang, you will take care of it in the future!"
"It's easy to say, if there is anything to find me in Dafa Restaurant, I'll continue to shop!"
They are all acquaintances, Zhang Dafa also understands the character of Lao Yingtou, this old man is very sincere, a few years ago Lao Yingtou's daughter had a disease, when Lao Yingtou was sending fish to Zhang Dafa, Lao Yingtou begged Zhang Dafa's head, Zhang Dafa is a good-faced person, there were still a few friends at that time, and he directly lent the silver to Lao Yingtou.
Originally, I was quite worried, but then Zhang Dafa became more and more happy, this old man is really honest and sincere, although the money is returned to himself little by little, but in the past few years, the old man has taken advantage of it, not to mention twenty taels of silver, not including this time.
After Zhang Dafa left, Lao Yingtou took Shen Mufeng and sent the fish to Dafa Restaurant, and then took Shen Mufeng to buy some wine and meat, and then returned home.
And Lao Yingtou's home is not bad, a small courtyard, although the house is some years old, but it is very solid.
After knocking on the door a few times, a timid voice came from inside, and Lao Yingtou answered, and the door was opened.
It turns out that although it is still peaceful here, there are still things happening every three or five days, and there is a girl at home, and I don't worry about my daughter being at home alone, so I usually let my daughter lock the door, and only when I come back will I open the door.
What appeared in front of Shen Mufeng was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, very beautiful and plainly dressed, like a budding little flower.
"Xiaofeng! This is my daughter Yulian, Yulian, this is your brother Xiaofeng. ”
Although Wang Yulian was puzzled, she still called Brother Xiaofeng shyly, but Shen Mufeng didn't think too much, just hummed.
"Yulian, thanks to your brother Xiaofeng today, today is a bumper harvest!"
After speaking, he handed ten taels of silver to Wang Yulian, Wang Yulian was startled, ten taels of silver, and she couldn't earn ten taels of silver for half a year!
The life of the fisherman is not bad, but the number of times you can go to sea in a month is also limited, every time you go to sea, you have to check the fishing boat, and it costs a lot of money to repair and repair it on weekdays, and once the fishing boat is completely useless, it is a lot of money to build a new boat.
So although the days are good, it is really not easy to save ten taels of silver.
"By the way, I cut some meat when I came back, girl, you go and fry two dishes, let's celebrate today!"
Wang Yulian was so happy that she went to the kitchen with the meat, and after a while, she fried four dishes.
At the wine table, Uncle Ying asked Shen Mufeng if he was willing to stay, Uncle Ying's mind was very simple, that is, to recruit an old son-in-law, Xiaolian was about to get married, to be honest, Uncle Ying was very reluctant, first, he was afraid that he would not be able to take care of his daughter, and secondly, he was afraid that he would be left alone, and he would not even have anyone to speak.
And Shen Mufeng is very interested in Uncle Ying's temper, although the origin is not clear, but this kid is a good fisherman, and he doesn't talk much, he is very obedient, if he can stay with peace of mind, it is also a beautiful thing, and his daughter should not suffer if she follows this kid.
Of course, Uncle Ying will naturally not be so direct, after all, catching up is not a business, at least you must know that this kid is willing to stay, as long as he stays, the rest of the matter will be simple.
Although Shen Mufeng had forgotten the previous things, there seemed to be a voice in his heart that made him stay, telling him that there was what he wanted here.
