Chapter 379: The Ink Gathering
You Po was stunned for a moment, thinking that Zhang Quan refused to borrow the boat, and was about to persuade him, but Zhang Quandao turned out.
"Have you forgotten what time it is? The fishing boat should be on its way back, almost there! ”
You Po suddenly realized, and quickly explained to Jiang Anderao with a smile:
"You want to borrow a boat to go fishing in the sea, right? At this time, the fishing boats in Youjia Village should be coming back soon. We just went straight to the shore and could just pick fresh fish back when the time came. You don't have to fish it yourself. ”
Jiang Anrao and the Mo family understood.
"How many fishing boats are there in Youjia Village?"
Jiang Anrao asked casually.
She knew that because of the developed water system in this area and the close proximity to Dongting, there were many fishing villages, and the reason why Chu Mo fought between them was also to fight for fishing boats and fishing rights. The weakness of the wanderers, in addition to the small number of people, should also have something to do with the small number of fishing boats.
When You Po heard this, he peeked at Zhang Quan, and told Jiang Narao softly:
"And two boats, eight dinghys......"
Jiang Anrao thought about it, and remembered that Chudi's boat was talking about the kind of small cargo ship with two ships in parallel, connected by a plate in the middle, mainly used to load and transport goods, and as for the small boat, it was an upgraded version of the canoe, which carried about 200 things at a time.
So little, so small, it's really a recession.
However, Jiang Narao did not comment much on this, but said that he would let You Po take him to the shore for a while and find fishermen to buy some fish.
Of course, You Po agreed.
In fact, if someone can buy the fish caught in time, the fishermen will be happier!
Fishermen make a living from fishing, but the price of fish is very low, and only some particularly large or individual species of fish can be sold at some price, and the rest can only be sent to restaurants or large households.
More of them are dried and kept as rations.
Jiang Anrao took people to the shore with Youpo, and when the fleet of Youjia Village came back, he really spent money to buy a lot of fish.
Zhang Quan saw that she chose a lot of fish, and really gave money, and his face looked a lot better.
The people in the village originally saw Jiang Anrao and others coming, but they were all scared when they heard that it was the Mo family. You must know that these fishing villages have been affected a lot because of the Mo family's fighting. But after a while, they found that there was no movement, and everyone couldn't help but look at it.
When they saw the Mo family repairing an empty house at high speed, the villagers in the fishing village were stunned.
They've never seen a house repaired so quickly!
Jiang Anrao and others talked and laughed when they were working, they didn't look fierce, but they were quite kind, and their own fishing boat was coming back soon, and some brave villagers came out of their homes.
When Jiang Anderao and others bought the fish, and heard that they really spent money to buy the fish instead of robbing it, the villagers were basically relieved.
Seeing Jiang Anderao and others making fish balls, the people in the village were curious about what they were doing.
In the end, the woman who got a piece of soap and led Jiang Anrao to pass by had the courage to come over and ask:
What are you guys doing here? The fish is good, what do you do when you mash it?
Jiang Anrao smiled and explained, this is making fish balls, won't my uncle know? Shall I teach you?
The fish here can't be sold for a price if they are alive, and they are even less valuable when they die! As a result, unsellable fish became a staple food for the villagers. But after years of eating these, everyone has eaten enough.
Now that I look at it, I can still make meatballs, which is good!
"If it's fried in fish oil, it's more fragrant and lasts longer! Fish balls can also be cut into thin slices and dried. When you fry it with a little oil, it can immediately grow several times, crispy and fragrant! Jiang Anrao popularized science for the fishermen.
Looking at the fish tofu steamed out by Jiang Anrao and others, Zhang Ke's eyes widened:
"This, like Fuli!" When I went to Xianyang, I saw that the world was different, and I recognized the fish "Fuli" at once.
After the woman was fed fish balls and fish tofu by Jiang Anrao, she couldn't help but praise the deliciousness!
The villagers couldn't help it and came to learn. They found that these self-proclaimed ink merchants are so powerful, the same fish and meat, people have a way to make different things! In the end, I also helped them come up with ideas and taught them to make all kinds of food from the fish and meat they had eaten enough on weekdays and sell them!
So with the fish balls, the ink man brought by Jiang Anrao quickly integrated into the villagers.
Zhang Quan stood aside, frowning and thinking.
The little girl who just said that she wanted the Mo family to be unified was chatting with the villagers with a smile at the moment, and from time to time, she had to pass a word between the villagers and the people she brought, after all, sometimes everyone didn't understand what to say to each other.
However, the atmosphere is really quite congenial.
No wonder You Po Zhang Ke came back and said that Xianyang's ink artists were different. This should be the way the ink man gets along with others.
He didn't learn from Mozi himself, and at this time he couldn't help but think, perhaps, when Mozi was alive, Mozi got along with others like this, right?
But Chu Mo is now fighting and fighting. Make everyone hateful!
Zhang Quan was thoughtful.
Later, Zhang Quan asked You Po in detail what Zhang Ke had seen and heard in Xianyang Mo's house, and You Po certainly knew everything. He even said some of the legends about Jiang Rao that they had heard, and in the end, You Po was a little faintly excited. Think about it, Jiang Rao is young, but he's really powerful!
If you record all the deeds about her, you can write down a scroll of bamboo slips.
No, no, maybe a roll of bamboo slips isn't enough!
You Cheng on the side didn't follow them to Xianyang, and they all regretted it a little at this time!
Mu Qiang has everyone in his heart, just listening to his cousin's description, he feels that Qin Mo is really good! Envy!
So You Cheng wanted You Po to tell him more about what he had seen.
The three young people chattered and talked, but Zhang Quan quieted down, and he pondered what Jiang Anrao had said during the day.
This little girl is not as simple as it seems, so how can she bet with herself at will? Unless she's sure.
But she, a Qin person, how could she be sure to decide Chu Mo's affairs? Studied but cannot comprehend.
No matter what Zhang Quan thought, the second day came normally. Zhang Quan took You Po and a few people to find Jiang Angao and took her to the rally as agreed.
Perhaps because the infighting was too strong, the people of all factions were afraid that someone would secretly set up a trap and ambush when they gathered on the boat or somewhere next to it, so Chu Mo chose to gather on the bank of an open river this time.
When the people of the You faction and the Mo family led by Jiang Anrao arrived at the river under the leadership of Zhang Quan, many people had already gathered at the assembly place, You Po and You Cheng followed behind Zhang Quan, Jiang Narao was beside them, and the two of them quietly introduced Jiang Narao to the people they could recognize.
