Chapter 10: Treasure Fish!
Three baskets full of fish were removed from the boat, attracting the attention of the fishermen, especially when the most striking spot-headed fish appeared, causing a small amount of chatter.
"Whose ship is this? Did you run into a school of fish? Luck, too, yo, and a spotted head! ”
"I don't know, it looks strange, there are only a few good players with names and surnames on the port, doesn't this ship look like it?"
"Isn't this the little sampan of the Ah Shui family? That leper has to be replaced. ”
"Who is Ah Shui?"
"You forgot, the kid of Liang Dajiang's family, the weird one."
"He's still alive? Isn't he an orphan, the last time I saw him go to borrow food, he was kicked out. ”
"Shhhhhh
Hearing this, the fishermen present were a little surprised, obviously they didn't expect that an orphan could survive on his own, which was really rare.
"Bah, it's also a hard-working baby, but fortunately, it looks like it can support itself, it's not easy."
"Let's go to the port, I'm afraid we're going to make a good move again! It's a pity, why not my cub, no chance at all. ”
The fishermen sighed for a while, and at the same time discussed a few words with envy, and when they saw that the fish basket was moved into the fishing pen, they left one after another.
It's hard for orphans to live, although it's rare to survive alone, but after all, it's none of their business, just join in the fun, is it possible that there will be a big future in the future?
On the other side, Lin Baosong weighed the fish and calculated the account: "With the spotted head, it is a total of one hundred and thirty-two Wen, how about counting you one hundred and thirty-five?" ”
"Give me a penny and ten cents."
"A penny of silver?" Lin Songbao fell into thought.
In recent years, prices have been stable, and the price given by the official can be exchanged for about a thousand copper plates, but the value of silver is maintained, and a thousand copper plates must not be exchanged for one or two silvers, and one thousand and one or two are enough.
One hundred and thirty-five wen for one penny of broken silver is a slight earning.
Thinking of this, Lin Songbao agreed, took back the string of copper plates he had touched, and replaced them with a grain of broken silver and ten copper plates.
"Put it away."
"Hmm."
Walking out of the fishing shop, Liang Qu routinely came to the foot shop to eat, and he was still the same as the old three, thinking while eating.
"There are already two or three dollars, and there are still four or seven dollars left, so you can scrape together enough money to go to the martial arts hall, if you can save a hundred wen every day, it will only take two months, but it is too conspicuous, and you have to have a promotion process to do it."
With the help of fat catfish, Liang Qu's daily catch is higher than that of ordinary fishermen, but a few days ago it was thirty wen a day, and it was too paradoxical to suddenly pull up, and it took some time to get used to it.
As for why it suddenly sold for more than 100 wen today, who hasn't been lucky enough to come across a school of fish?
It's like catching a yellow croaker, it doesn't matter once or twice, but if there are too many times, you need a suitable excuse.
"In addition, pay taxes at the end of autumn immediately, tax money is also a problem, two months is not enough, if you can't pay taxes, you will be arrested and sent to serve in the feudal society."
Liang Qu has a clear plan for his future, and he must learn martial arts.
Not only did I come here to see how big the world was, but also because there was a Zhao Mansion hanging above my head.
The old man of the dog day is like a sword of Damocles.
Liang Qu hatefully cleaned the last bite of food, returned home after settling the bill, and lay down on the bed.
"If only I could catch a treasure fish like Tiger's Head Grouper."
He thought that someone in the next port had caught a five-pound tiger head group last month, and it was asked to leave by the martial artist in the bazaar, and it was sold for a sky-high price of three taels and five dollars of silver.
This kind of fish has a miraculous effect on refining the body, and a fish can save the warrior's work for more than a month, and it may be more precious than the treasure plant lotus root that he found.
Just as Liang Qu was wondering if he should take the time to let the six-whiskered catfish look for it, there was a sudden noise outside the house, but it quickly stopped.
"Hey, someone is arguing again......"
This is the case in small places, where any house is louder and louder, and the neighbors will hear it clearly.
Liang Qu thought that he must buy a big yard when he has money in the future, ten in and ten out, and ten more beautiful maids, Qingyi has a thin waist and long legs, white skin and beautiful appearance, and he is squeamish with tea, please drink tea, and live a life of a master.
"Bang, bang."
A knock on the door interrupted his fantasy, Liang Qu got up in surprise, it couldn't be Zheng Xiang again, right?
"Who?"
"Me."
The visitor had some nonsense literature, but Liang Qu quickly got up and opened the door, he remembered this voice too well, and he couldn't forget it.
When he opened the door, Liang Qu saw Chen Qingjiang stuffing a small cloth bag to himself with a black face, turned around and left, without even saying a word.
"Uncle Chen! This? ”
Liang Qu didn't catch up, the back had already gone home, he had to open the cloth bag, and was surprised to find that it was actually rice grain, and there was a lot of portions.
In an instant he understood.
In order to sell more money, Uncle Chen has to walk more than ten miles to the town every day to sell fish, and he is also loyal, I am afraid that he does not know that he has the ability to support himself, but his life is still difficult.
"This ...... Not necessarily. ”
Liang Qu sighed, he didn't dare to forget the grace of a cake.
Without that cake, he might have starved to death at home, just because he studied martial arts, and the autumn tax required money, and he never had time to do something.
Presumably the dispute just now was Uncle Chen and his wife?
Liang Qu was very ashamed.
Chen Qingjiang returned home after delivering rice, and the atmosphere at home was still silent.
Wife Adi sat in the corner and sulked alone, didn't look at her husband, only buried her head in the thread, and sent rice, if it was normal, she was not unwilling, but the youngest son was sick a few days ago, the disease was cured, the savings were gone, and he had to pay taxes after the autumn, which was a tax for three people!
Isn't this a swollen face and a fat man?
For a while, the two were relatively speechless.
Candles flickered in the room, illuminating the walls in a dark red.
After a long time, Chen Qingjiang suddenly got up, the candle flame was pressed low by the wind pressure brought up, and it shook so much that Adi almost pierced her hand, she raised her head angrily, but unexpectedly, her body suddenly became lighter.
Adi's mind was stunned, and she was extremely embarrassed: "What are you going to do?" ”
Chen Qingjiang hugged his wife, lowered his head and blew out the candles, and the urn sounded: "Sleep!" ”
"The eldest baby and the second baby are sleeping!"
"Two little pigs, what are you afraid of?"
Adi's mind was blank, her face flushed, and she still had the previous annoyance.
That's how it should be when dealing with women.
......
At the door, hearing the movement coming from inside the house, Liang Qu withdrew his hand that tried to knock on the door, looking embarrassed.
I thought that it would be bad for the husband and wife to quarrel with themselves, so I wanted to come to the door to apologize, but I ran into such an embarrassing thing.
Carrying the rice bag in his hand, Liang Qu could only take it home and wait until later.
......
For the next half month, Liang Qu sold fish at the port, and gradually began to increase the value of his daily catch.
From 40 to 80, it focuses on a young and promising fishing master.
The daily income of ordinary fishermen is about sixty or seventy yuan, but an experienced middle-aged fisherman like Chen Qingjiang can have eighty yuan, and a few good hands can reach 100 yuan.
Liang Qu was only fifteen or sixteen years old to be able to do this, obviously quite powerful, and he had a small reputation in the port for a while.
Everyone was amazed at how much an orphan could do.
What he didn't expect was that in addition to reaping the envy and jealousy of other fishermen, Liang Qu also unexpectedly won the favor of the matchmaker......
"I said that I have no plans to get married for the time being."
Liang Qu quickly untied the rope and fled in a boat under the disappointed eyes of the matchmaker.
The back was a bit hurried, and the fishermen on the shore only thought that Liang Qu was shy, and laughed at it.
"Don't be embarrassed Ah Shui, he's still a chick!"
"I'm afraid I don't understand women!"
"It's a pity, why don't you introduce me?"
"You old bachelor, get out!"
Liang Qu never expected that after showing his "fishing talent" on the port, he would actually become a fragrant bait in the blind date market, and he was relieved that he couldn't see the port after rowing until he couldn't see the port.
When he reached the lotus root waters, he slapped the water with his oars.
The huge pig dragon slowly surfaced, flicked its tail when it saw the boat, and rested a pair of paws on the edge of the boat.
Seeing that there was no one around, Liang Qu took a fishing net and a pig urine bubble filled with air and dived into the water.
A man and a beast, looking for Ah Fei's figure in the water.
Liang Qu's daily limit catch is about 150 Wen, but there can only be 80 Wen on the surface, so the rest of the time is used by him to find treasure fish, and fat catfish are not idle.
The treasure fish is hard to find, and I haven't found it for several days, until the news came from Ah Fei's spiritual link just now that the treasure fish has been found!
