Chapter 173: Recruitment of Twenty Taels of Gold
Early the next morning, Changyu came to Yang Ming.
He pushed a cart with fish that he had cut himself.
"Boy, how did you cut out this whole piece of meat?" Zhang Yu looked at the pieces of meat of different sizes in his car and couldn't help asking.
Last night he tried all the kitchen knives at home, and no matter how much he cut them, he couldn't cut the meat off the whole piece.
Yang Ming didn't speak, but shook the Moli knife on his waist.
"This..." made Zhang Yu stunned for a while, "Such a good knife, you took the meat?" It's a terrible thing!" Looking at the lifelike patterns carved on the hilt, Zhang Yu knew that this was a good knife, but Yang Ming's behavior made him a little...
"What's this?" Yang Ming sneered, "You don't know what a foodie is. It's like those who like to eat puffer fish, they don't eat it when they know it's poisonous?"
"Yes." Zhang Yu hurriedly waved his hand: "When I didn't say it."
"Let's load the car." Yang Ming urged, "The price of this fish is not all the same, such as this one." Yang Ming pointed to one of the pieces of meat in excellent condition, "This kind of meat not only sells well, but also tastes unique, the price is naturally more expensive, you can look at the rest and sell it yourself."
Changyu is also a person who has lived for decades, so he doesn't know that different parts of meat have different prices; Just like pork, pork ribs are definitely more expensive than pork belly.
"I see."
A moment later, just as the group was heading out, Pearl arrived, and beside her was a young man dressed as a fisherman.
She said apologetically, "I'm sorry everyone, the fish was so delicious last night, and my brother and I ate it late, so..."
"It's fine." Lei Wuji grinned, "We've just left, Pearl Girl, you're here at the right time."
"Oh, yes." Pearl hurriedly introduced, "This is my brother, Sea Eagle."
The young man greeted him a little shyly, "Hello everyone, thank you, your fish."
"You're welcome, my name is Mockery." Yang Ming took a step forward, "Let's go to the market first, there is still so much fish and meat left, we plan to let Uncle Zhang take it and sell it."
"By the way, Pearl Girl, you can take it." As he spoke, Yang Ming picked up a piece of meat and put it in the basket of pearls.
"Thanks, thanks." Pearl sighed and hurriedly wrapped the fish in the cloth in the basket.
"Let's go, we need to see the cedar longship." Yang Ming urged.
......
In the bazaar, because of the novelty of the eating method and the tasting promotion specially made by Yang Ming.
At first, the people who came and went couldn't accept this way of eating, but soon, as Yang Ming took a bite, they also tasted it.
In just a few moments, a lot of fish has been sold.
"It's stable, let's go first, Uncle Zhang, you can sell it here alone." Yang Ming saw that the time was ripe, and immediately chose to leave, he didn't have time to waste here.
"It's okay, you guys go, I'll be alone here." Zhang Yu waved at Yang Ming with a smile on his face. All he sold was his fish, and after a while, he had already earned a lot of silver.
Because the price of fish is more expensive than other fish in the market, it is still sold slowly. Although there were many onlookers, few could really afford it.
"What's going on with this ship, Pearl Maiden, have you inquired?" Xiao Se said leisurely.
"My brother and I inquired, and said that it was a big merchant ship from Qingzhou, with the government's business, and they planned to go into the deep sea to look for medicinal materials. Sailors have been recruited here for the past few days, and I heard that they are going to recruit a full sixty people. But I had to travel with the boat for four months, and when I first started, I didn't want to go." Pearl said hurriedly.
"So, it's a thankless job." Yang Ming glanced at Xiao Se, they didn't care about this, they just wanted the ship to be able to sail to the deep sea, and the current situation was exactly what they wanted.
Xiao Se lowered his head slightly: "Pearl girl, there should be more than that."
Pearl nodded, "Yes, the people on the ship said that one person would be rewarded with twenty taels of gold. That's the equivalent of ten years of income for us ordinary fishermen, and they also said that they would give the gold before they got on the boat."
Yang Ming shook his head helplessly: "It's really like human trafficking." Although he knew the reason, he still didn't forget to tease.
Xiao Se glanced at Yang Ming: "Give the money first, there is a high probability that this time going to sea will be very dangerous, either the sea area is unknown, or the place where the medicinal materials are taken is extremely dangerous." As he spoke, he turned to look at Pearl's brother, "If I'm not mistaken, you're going too, aren't you?"
The young man scratched his head: "Don't hide it, I just want to sign up, after all, these twenty taels of gold, if you miss it, you will regret it for the rest of your life."
"And how many people have they recruited now?" Yang Ming asked.
"It is said that only two people passed the recruitment in the morning." Pearl said.
Yang Ming nodded, "I think it should be very difficult to recruit here."
Then Yang Ming counted the people behind him: "Add me, a total of six, just enough to add 6 heads to them."
Pearl was puzzled, "Brother Luo, are you so confident?"
"If he won't let us get on the boat, then call them until they agree." As he spoke, Yang Ming pulled out the Moli knife on his waist.
The moment the blade was unsheathed, a gust of wind came out of the sword, blowing up everyone's clothes and hair. Yang Ming stepped on the steps in front of him with one foot, and Mo Lidao raised it above his head and waved it lightly forward.
"Little ones, target the cedar longship, rush and rush!" Yang Minglang laughed.
"Ouch." Before Yang Ming could finish pretending, Twilight Yumo picked up his ears.
"I'll let you pretend! You pretend to be another one and I'll see." Twilight Yumo scolded angrily.
"Hey, hey." Yang Ming said with a smile: "Let go first, let go first, so many people are watching."
"Hmph." With a cold snort, Twilight Yumo walked forward alone.
"Little ones, why are you still stunned, hurry up and keep up." Yang Ming urged Xiao Se and the others.
Tang Lian also showed a rare smile: "Such an interesting thing, we naturally want to go and see it."
"Let's go." Sikong Qianluo hurriedly urged, join in the fun or something, she likes it the most. Lifting the spear in her hand, she leapt to Twilight's side.
"This." The young man was stunned, for like the pearl before, he had never seen anyone leap a distance of tens of feet.
Pearl patted the young man helplessly: "Brother, Brother Luo, they are all masters of the rivers and lakes, not only Qianluo girls, but all of them can do this."
The young man scratched his head, "They're too powerful, aren't they?"
Pearl replied, "Brother, you don't have to put too much pressure, even if you don't pass the recruitment, it's nothing. As Brother Xiao said just now, this route must be extremely dangerous."
The young man nodded, "Okay. Let's hurry up or we'll be left behind."
