Chapter 322: The Boatman

The boat is on the river.

After a while, I heard a commotion.

Li Ping'an shook the fishing rod, and a big fish weighing four or five catties fell on the boat.

A pot of fragrant fish soup was stewed.

The night was already deep, and the moon had set.

Li Ping'an was a little tired, and he didn't bother to tie the boat.

Went straight into the cabin and fell asleep

The wind blew in the night, and the boat was blown away on the river.

When I woke up early in the morning, I didn't know where I was.

The evergreen monk has been recuperating because of the failure of the crossing.

Li Ping'an asked him where he was going to go in the future, and the evergreen monk said that he would go to the demon eradication conference after recuperating for a while.

It just so happened that the two of them were on the way.

Monk Changqing closed his eyes all day long, and it had been a month since the last time the two of them spoke.

Li Ping'an untied the wine gourd on his waist, raised his head and took a sip of wine.

Along the way, Li Ping'an's silver has almost been spent.

I thought I would catch some fish every day and sell them for some money.

But the harvest hasn't been good lately, and I can't eat enough.

Not to mention taking it out and selling it.

Li Ping'an put away the bamboo stick a little helplessly.

The boat rowed to the shore and listened to someone selling tofu on the other side.

Bean curd?

It's good to sell tofu.

If there is any kind of business that makes sure that it does not lose money, it must be selling tofu.

If the tofu is accidentally made hard, sell the dried tofu.

If the tofu is accidentally thinned, sell the tofu flower instead.

If it's too thin, sell soy milk.

If the tofu still doesn't sell, let it sit for a few days and sell soy tofu or stinky tofu instead.......

A million profits.

Li Ping'an rubbed his head, thinking that he should make some money and spend.

As the saying goes, "the poor are rich",

The heroes who have traveled all over the rivers and lakes in martial arts novels rarely worry about money.

On the contrary, a lot of money is thrown, the scene of drinking in a big bowl is constant, and the plot of righteousness and squandering money is even more grasped.

However, reality is just reality after all.

Li Ping'an held the cane knife in his hand and prepared to return to his old job.

..........

"Boatman, boatman!"

Someone on the shore was shouting hello.

Li Ping'an raised his head.

There were two men dressed as scholars, who braved the wind and snow and walked to the shore.

It looks like I'm going to the capital.

"Boatman, how much does it cost to go to Jiangduyan?"

Li Ping'an hesitated, he did pick up a few guests before, but it was the first time he went to Jiangduyan.

He calculated that this place was far from Dujiangyan.

A price was quoted.

"No problem." The other party agreed.

I don't know if Li Ping'an's price is low, or if they really can't stand the cold wind.

Li Ping'an docked the boat, and two scholars boarded the boat.

I found that there was a monk sitting in the cabin with his eyes closed, and he didn't move.

Li Ping'an said: "Don't pay attention to him." ”

The two scholars immediately entered the cabin, which had a hot hand warmer.

A scholar didn't want to waste this time, so he didn't wait for his hand to ease up a bit.

So he took a book out of his bookcase and flipped through it.

Another tall scholar said, "Brother Juhe, don't work so hard." ”

Zhang Juhe sighed deeply, "Alas, if I fail the exam again this time, I really don't know how to go back and face my family." ”

The man comforted: "Brother Juhe, don't say these frustrating words, Brother Juhe's intelligence will definitely be able to be named on the gold list!"

What's more, even if you don't pass the exam, there is still no property in Juhe's brother's family.

In any case, Ju and his brother's life is much better than most.

How many people can't even eat now, not to mention anything else.

Just talking about this boatman, this cold winter wax moon, isn't it just to row to support his family?

Otherwise, who wants to suffer from this wind and cold in vain? ”

After his persuasion, Zhang Juhe's face became a little less sad.

"yes, what else could I not be satisfied with?"

The boatman worked hard for his livelihood, and sometimes if he couldn't pull the passengers, he couldn't get anything all day.

The livelihood was damaged, not to mention the fact that the boatman was only wearing a single coat before.

Zhang Juhe touched the warm skin on his body again, and the dissatisfaction in his heart suddenly dissipated.

Just as he was thinking about it, he saw the boatman walk in.

Then he boiled a pot of tea by himself, and his technique was very skillful.

I heard a slight sound, and the bubbles were like fish eyes, and they were boiling.

When it boils, season with salt

The bubbles on the edge of the kettle are like beads gushing up, and it is a second boil.

When boiling to the second boil, take out a scoop of water and use bamboo chopsticks to stir the soup heart.

After a while, boil and splash foam, and pour the water into the outlet.

The two scholars stared blankly at the boatman.

(⊙O⊙)…

Subsequently, Zhang Juhe reacted.

"Hey, you... What are you doing? ”

"Make tea."

I can't see such an obvious movement.

"You make tea, so who rows the boat?" Zhang Juhe pointed out the crux of the problem.

"This boat is automatic." Li Ping'an said lightly.

What automatic?

The two couldn't understand Li Ping'an's words, but the ship was really moving!

The two thought that there was another person on board, but the boat found two people and a cow before they had just now.

Where else are there any?

The boatman was chattering, and it was a little unsettling.

The two scholars glanced at each other and walked out of the cabin.

After looking around, there was indeed no rower.

Only one cow was lying on the side of the boat, and his eyes were rather resentful.

When the two of them looked closely, they found that half of the cow was lying on the boat, and half of its body was reaching out to the surface.

Both legs are constantly thrashing in the water.

This bull........ Boating!?

The worldview of the two scholars collapsed at this moment.

Li Ping'an silently took a sip of tea.

At this time, another ship passed by.

"Lao Li!"

It is the fisherman Lao Liu, who fishes on this river all year round.

is more familiar with Li Ping'an.

"Lao Li, I'm picking up the guest." Lao Liu said with a smile

"Well, go to Jiangduyan."

Jiangduyan!?

Lao Liu's face changed slightly, and he glanced at the two scholars in the cabin.

Leaned over the boat and winked at Li Ping'an.

"Lao Li, you brought you the drunken crab you asked me to bring you last time, get on my boat first."

(I saw the blue sky on Sunday: ah~ what a beautiful sky)

(Isn't that faint cloud like a seaside wave?) Aren't the birds flying in the sky the same fish swimming in the sea? )

(On Monday I saw the blue sky: what a few handfuls of broken weather!!) )
