Chapter 223: Ma Wanfu's Solicitation
When the crew on the battleship saw this scene, they immediately entered the battle state, after all, the fierce beasts in this world are not lambs to be slaughtered, when they didn't have this battleship before, they didn't even dare to enter the deep sea to fish, what they were afraid of was encountering these big, fierce demonized beasts.
In order to avoid hurting Ma Wanfu, an investor, everyone hurriedly pulled him to the rear to protect it.
At this time, the two ballistas at the bow of the ship were also fired again, but those big fish were on guard at this time, and when they saw the crossbow arrows coming, they dodged one after another, and as a result, the two crossbow arrows were shot, and only one of them hit, and it only scratched the opponent's tail, and it was not able to let the crossbow arrows penetrate its body, and the damage caused was not great.
Seeing the arrival of the younger brother, the leader of the big fish, who was about to be pulled to the side of the boat, also struggled hard, so that his wounds were constantly torn open, and streams of blood gushed out from it, staining the sea water around him red. However, because the crossbow arrow was deeply rooted in its body, even if it struggled, it would not be able to completely break free for a while.
As if realizing that it was futile to struggle like this, the big fish suddenly stopped struggling and poked its head out of the water.
At this time, everyone saw the true face of this big fish with a body length of nearly three meters for the first time, this guy's head and back are gray-black, there are silver-white scales on both sides of the body, and a pair of dead fish eyes on the head are wide, but they have no look, and they don't look like they have any intelligence, maybe because their heads are eroded too much by demonic energy.
After poking its head out of the water, the large fish opened its jaw, revealing rows of teeth as sharp as blades and a stream of water that was rapidly converging in its mouth.
Seeing this scene, Shen Dajie immediately carried a large skin shield to the front, and reminded others loudly: "Be careful! ”
Almost at the same time as his words fell, a water arrow had already shot out of the mouth of the big fish, and then slammed into Shen Dajie's skin shield with a pop.
Fortunately, this large shield was thick enough, so after being hit by this water arrow with a power comparable to a heavy crossbow, it only appeared a depression, but was not penetrated.
Several villagers armed with flintlock rifles and winch heavy crossbows also quickly stepped forward at this time, taking advantage of the gap when the big fish had just finished attacking and began to charge again, and fired a volley at it.
After all, the strength of this big fish is not strong, so in the face of those large-caliber flintlock pistols and winch heavy crossbows, it is also impossible to resist, and several blood holes were blasted out of the bullet on his body at once, and several crossbow arrows were inserted.
Such a serious injury also made this originally fierce big fish no longer have the energy to shoot water arrows, and even the tunnel where it struggled became much smaller, and it was pulled out of the water by several villagers who turned the winch and pulled it hard.
When the fish reached the shore, the big fish had no chance to resist, and two villagers immediately stepped forward with sharp steel forks, one pierced its head and the other pierced its heart, making it die in an instant.
Soon, however, the little brothers of the big fish also arrived, and then surrounded the battleship and began to shoot water arrows at everyone on board.
Although the water arrows fired by these guys are not as powerful as the big fish, they are comparable to the arrows fired by ordinary bows and arrows, and once hit, these villager crews who are only equipped with rudimentary leather armor and cloth armor may still be injured, so everyone retreats, and some villagers with shields immediately carry their shields in front of them, blocking most of the water arrows that are fired.
At this time, Shen Dajie had already taken out his bolt-action rifle and shot at the big fish in the water, facing this more powerful bolt-action rifle, those big fish were even more powerless to resist, basically as long as they were hit to the point, they would be killed in seconds.
Ma Wanfu on the side saw that Shen Dajie had shot three big fish with this old-fashioned bolt-action rifle in less than a minute, and his hands suddenly itched, and he pleaded with him: "Brother Shen, this thing looks really good!" Can you shoot me two times too! ”
Shen Dajie's task today was originally to have fun with this big investor, so he naturally agreed to the other party's little request, but while handing the general to the other party, he also reminded: "Brother Ma, you have to be careful when shooting, the recoil of this shot is a bit big!" ”
After Ma Wanfu took it, he shot at a big fish in the sea, and he didn't know where the bullet flew after taking it, and his shoulder against the butt of the gun was also shocked to the point of pain.
"Brother, you really didn't lie to me, the recoil of this gun is really big!" Ma Wanfu rubbed his shoulders that were shocked and sighed, on the side of Oranxing, the recoil of all kinds of firearms used by individual soldiers is very small, so Ma Wanfu didn't expect that the recoil of this bolt-action rifle would be so large, and then he thought to himself, maybe this is the reason why this weapon was eliminated back then!
After finding that he couldn't control this rifle, Ma Wanfu returned it to Shen Dajie, and then looked at Shen Dajie and those crew members, kept firing from the boat, and soon shot the two dozen big fish.
After that, Shen Dajie and the others used the internal organs of these big fish to build a nest nearby, so that Ma Wanfu could fish here.
Perhaps because there was a lot of material under the nest, Ma Wanfu's fishing rod had just been put down not long before he reacted, and the fish on the water floated and sank after shaking for a while.
Seeing this, Ma Wanfu was immediately excited to lift the fishing rod up, but even if he used all his strength, he couldn't lift the fishing rod a little, with the wrestling between the two sides, the fishing rod was bent to an exaggerated extent, but fortunately, the fishing rod itself was made of good material, so it was not broken for a while.
After Shen Dajie and others stepped forward to help, the fishing rod was finally lifted up little by little.
And as the fish was gradually lifted to the surface, everyone realized that it was nothing more than an earthy yellow sea fish about one meter long.
"Good fellow, such a small fish has so much strength in the water! It's really worthy of the Xuangu Continent! After finally catching this fish, Ma Wanfu felt that his hands were sore because he was too hard, so he couldn't help but sigh.
Although this fish is not big, it is not a demonic beast, so its fish can be eaten directly. It happened to be tossed for a long time, and since Ma Wanfu was also hungry, he was ready to eat this sea fish directly into a dish.
The conditions on this boat are simple, and there are no complicated dishes, Shen Dajie washed and peeled the fish, and then cooked a pot of fish soup in an iron pot, because the sea fish itself is very delicious, so Shen Dajie just put some salt in it, and no other seasonings were put in.
Ma Wanfu admired Shen Dajie's approach, after all, in his opinion, if too much seasoning is put in, it will cover the taste of the ingredients themselves, and it will be meaningless to eat.
As soon as the fish soup was ready, Ma Wanfu, who had already been aroused by the fragrance, took a bowl of fish soup and became normal.
"Hmm! It's so fresh! Sure enough, this original fish soup is delicious! The sweetness of the fresh fish is something that no other seasoning can imitate. ”
Ma Wanfu sighed while drinking the fish soup, obviously, this is still a gourmand with a unique taste, when he participated in Guo Dafu's wedding, the reason why he didn't eat those well-cooked meals was obviously because there were too many seasonings in those meals. And the pot in front of him looks like an ordinary fish soup, but because of its original taste, this big guy loves it very much.
Shen Dajie actually agrees with the other party's unique taste, during this time he has eaten all kinds of seafood in Kuyan Village, and he also thinks that the original taste of many seafood is the most delicious, of course, this may also be related to the quality of the seafood he eats!
After eating the pot of fish soup, Ma Wanfu started fishing again, this time he didn't catch the fish as soon as the fishing rod was put down, so Ma Wanfu waited for the fish to take the bait, and chatted with Shen Dajie beside him.
"Xiao Shen! You can work in a remote village like Kuyan Village for many months, which shows that you are still quite able to endure hardships, and I like young people like you, or you can go back to Oranxing with me! Our group is very short of manpower now, if you are willing to go back with me, you only need to go back with me, you only need to experience a few months, at least you can be a branch manager of the group in one base, with a monthly salary of at least 500,000 yuan! What do you think? ”
Shen Dajie didn't expect that Ma Wanfu, a big investor, would suddenly recruit him, after all, he was just an ordinary elementary school principal in this Qinglong Empire.
Before, he was still an agent, but then because he was in the process of those bandits invading, he was the first to shoot a warning to the villagers, and also killed two of the bandits, so the above directly made him from the acting principal directly to the official, and his salary has doubled all of a sudden, and the others have not changed much, after all, the number of teachers is limited now, and it is already good for Kuyan Village to be able to assign him as a teacher, and it is foreseeable that for a long time in the future, he, the principal, will be a light commander.
However, although he, the principal of the primary school, is only a bare-bones commander, and the living conditions in Kuyan Village are also very difficult, Shen Dajie feels that he has lived a very fulfilling life in the past few months, or the work of imparting knowledge to a group of children is much more meaningful in his opinion than the usual daily work life before.
So although Ma Wanfu's conditions were very tempting, Shen Dajie quickly replied after being surprised: "Thank you Brother Ma for your kindness, but I have no intention of leaving here for the time being, and being the principal in this primary school makes me feel very fulfilling!" ”
"Alright! This twisted melon is not sweet, since you feel that working here is more fulfilling, then continue to work hard here! This Blue Dragon Empire was first established, although the initial life will be more difficult, but you joined early enough, as long as you can persevere, the final achievement will definitely not be too low! Ma Wanfu saw that the other party rejected his offer, although he felt some regret, but he did not continue to pester Shen Dajie, which can be regarded as showing the bearing that a big boss should have.
And Shen Dajie saw that the other party was not angry because he refused his solicitation, so he further said some thoughts in his heart to the other party.
"Brother Ma, in fact, I want to go to Orlan Star in the future and recruit more survivors to come here, you just said that this Blue Dragon Empire has just been established, and there are many opportunities, so it is better to let those compatriots who have no way to live on the side of Orlan Star come to this Blue Dragon Empire to make a living, than let them be starved to death in that Orlan Star!"
"Huh! Young man, your idea is good, I encourage you spiritually, but I hope you will not be disappointed when you return to Ollan! After listening to this idea in Shen Dajie's heart, Ma Wanfu replied with a chuckle, judging from his expression, he was obviously not very optimistic about the other party's idea.
