Chapter 79 Selling Fish

Qingyang rummaged around in his bag and found a small piece of silver, saying, "I can't repay you for saving my life. It also delayed your fishing tonight. You can take this little silver."

All of Yang Jiren's luggage was snatched away by the Jinsha Gang. Qingyang's luggage was always tied to his body, which meant that everything inside was soaked by the river water, so there was nothing missing.

Seeing Qingyang taking out the silver, Yu Laosan immediately became frightened and waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, no, I can't take it. It's just a simple effort to save you. Who doesn't have difficulties when going out? I should help you. "Yes. Besides, you didn't delay me. There are many fish in the river, so I can just cast a few nets in the middle of the night."

Yu Laosan said he didn't want anything, and in the end Qingyang had no choice but to say: "How about this? I'll help you fish. That's alright, right?"

There was no way to refuse this request. When Mrs. Yu brought the ginger tea, the three of them drank a bowl to dispel the coldness in their bodies. Then Yu Laosan and Qingyang went to the stern of the boat to cast a net for fishing. . Not only Qingyang, but also Lao Liang wanted to come over and help, but he gave up because the space at the stern of the boat was too small for three people. The remaining Mr. Yang, Yang Jiren, seemed to be too frightened and was a little weak. He was leaning on the side of the cabin to recuperate.

Qingyang had never fished before and was still very unfamiliar at first, but under the guidance of Yu Laosan, he quickly mastered the tricks. In less than half an hour, several nets were caught, not only some small fish and shrimps, but even three large fish weighing more than ten kilograms.

In the blink of an eye, the three fish baskets prepared by Yu Laosan were filled with fish catches. This was after the three big fish were knocked unconscious and placed in the cabin.

Yu Laosan couldn't help but be stunned. Their family had been fishing for generations and spent part of their lives on boats. The level of fishing was naturally extremely high. But he has never met someone with such a high level of understanding as Qingyang. It only took him half an hour to go from just getting started, to getting started, to becoming proficient.

Yu Laosan usually only manages to get dozens of kilograms of fish after working all night. If he is lucky, he can barely fill three fish baskets. As for the big fish of more than ten kilograms, he can't get it for half a month. He was able to catch one, but the little brother Qingyang caught so many in a short time.

It's so irritating that people are so different from each other. If this little Qingyang brother were also working as fishermen here, they would probably have no way of surviving.

What Yu Laosan didn't know was that Qingyang's fishing skills were not that high. He used his spiritual power to help, so the effect was so good. On the river at night, others could only rely on experience to judge, but Qingyang used his spiritual thoughts, which was more convenient than observing with his eyes during the day. He could spot the fish in the river accurately and catch them in the net without running away.

There were only three fish baskets on the boat, and they were all full. There was no place to put them anymore, so they both held firm. It was late at night and the weather was getting colder. Madam Yu and her daughter slept in the cabin. Yang Jiren and Lao Liang rested on the side of the cabin, while Yu Laosan put on a piece of clothing and held the oar. Silently watching the fishing boats drifting along the river.

Qingyang came to the bow of the ship alone, sat cross-legged, and tried to practice, but the effect of practice was not very good. The spiritual energy here seemed to be thinner than in the mountains of Xiping Mansion.

The boat went down the river. At about midnight the next day, the sky was getting brighter. Yu Laosan used the paddle to adjust the direction, and then the fishing boat sailed towards the shore.

Not long after, the fishing boat docked. Yu Laosan greeted everyone to get off the boat, and then said: "This is a temporary dock. Do you see that side? That is Kaiyuanfu City. You can reach it in half an hour at most by following this road. "Under the city."

The three of them raised their heads and looked in the direction pointed by Yu Laosan. They could vaguely see the outline of a city wall. The long city wall and the majestic city tower were much stronger than Xiping Mansion. There was only one nearby. It could be Kaiyuan Fucheng.

Although Yang Jiren rested for most of the night, he was still haggard and unwilling to stay by the water for a moment longer. He longed to spread his wings and fly into the city. However, they still thanked Yu Laosan, then took a deep look in the direction of the fishing boat, and then hurried away with Lao Liang.

Qingyang is not as anxious as Mr. Yang. Anyway, he has arrived on land. Even if the Sands Gang comes back, he is not afraid. The water gangs leaving the river are like fish leaving the water, and the city gate will not open so early. We are waiting below the city, why not help Yu Laosan sell the fish first.

The three baskets of fish weighed more than a hundred kilograms, and there were also three large fish weighing more than ten kilograms. Not to mention Yu Laosan alone, even if their whole family went into battle, they couldn't lift them. With Qingyang's help, there will be no problem. Yu Laosan is holding a fish basket and walking in front with three other fish strung up on his back, while Qingyang is following behind with a fish basket in each hand.

After getting to the pier, we walked forward for a while and came to a dilapidated small street. There were only a few dilapidated houses and a few people in the small street. It seemed that there were more than one fishing at night like Yu Laosan. people have set up stalls.

I don’t know whether it was because they didn’t know each other or they were in no mood to talk. Yu Laosan walked in front and didn’t meet anyone to say hello. Just when I saw the three big fish behind Yu Laosan, there was a hint of envy on their faces, because most of them only had one fish basket.

Yu Laosan found a cleaner place, they put down their things, and then no one said anything, waiting quietly for customers to come. Perhaps because of the three big fish, Yu Laosan quickly attracted customers and bought one of the big fish for a small amount of money.

One small diao of money is one hundred copper coins, and ten diao can be exchanged for one tael of silver, but this is already a very high price. This place is close to the Jinsha River, and the price of fish is extremely low. Ordinary fish and shrimp are only two cents per catty, and a basket of fish can sell for less than a hundred coins. Yu Laosan usually sells a small amount of fish for one night, and then buys some rice and flour.

This is also a good start. Yu Laosan showed a hint of joy on his face. As time passed, the sky became brighter and brighter, and the number of customers on the street gradually increased. There are not only fish sellers on the street, but also some people selling other things, most of whom are nearby villagers.

Yu Laosan's business is very good. In the middle, he met a shopkeeper who opened a restaurant in Kaiyuan Prefecture. Not only did he buy ordinary fish and shrimp, but he also bought the remaining two big fish. In a blink of an eye, Yu Laosan had four or five diao of money in his hand. However, he brought too many fish this time, and the other fishermen had already left, and he still had a small half basket to sell.

Seeing that it was already bright, the people from the Jinsha Gang might come looking for us at any time. It didn't matter if the remaining half basket of fish could not be sold. Anyway, I had made enough money today. I should buy some rice and flour first and return to the boat quickly. My wife was still waiting for the rice to be cooked.

~~~~~~Thanks to Yan Dong and Pu Yao for their rewards!
