Chapter 4 The Overlord in the Water(1/2)

"Yu Niang, eat more. The meat of this little crucian carp is the most delicious, and it is also the most suitable for a girl like you to nourish your body."

"By the way, Yu Niang, do you know what this big pot of stew is called in Ba Min?"

"This is called fish rice."

"why?"

"Because the fishermen there are also poor and cannot afford food, so they can only eat fish."

In a warm adobe house.

Yu Niang watched her brother carefully picking up fish bones for her while talking energetically. She felt that today was the happiest day in her life.

Her brother was not only kind to her, but he was also able to fish...

and.

Today she was able to eat fish and rice together, and she was full in one breath...

Yu Niang always wondered if she had saved the entire universe in her previous life in exchange for such a good life today...

For a while.

Seeing that Yu Niang had eaten most of a large carp that was more than a foot long, and seven or eight small crucian carps, and she really couldn't eat any more, Li Yuanjing nodded with satisfaction.

road:

"Yu Niang, don't you suspect that my brother's fishing is fake? You don't go anywhere today, just stay at home to help me. Let's see if what I said is fake!"

"in addition!"

"Brother, I will naturally find a way to deal with the money matter. You just have to take good care of your health first, do you understand?"

In the past, when Li Yuanjing said such things, Lady Yu would definitely not listen.

after all.

If Li Yuanjing's predecessor had said this, then the young couple would probably have no other choice but to starve to death.

However.

At this time, Li Yuanjing, especially the fish and rice in front of him, which was enough for them to eat for several days, completely gave Yu Niang a sense of security.

There was already a lot of sparkle in Yu Niang's beautiful eyes, and she didn't dare to refute Li Yuanjing anymore, so she nodded obediently.



With the help of the ingenious Yu Niang, it will be much easier for Li Yuanjing to weave the fish basket.

Not much.

The young couple made another fish basket.

Because of Yu Niang’s help, this fish basket is even more perfect than the first one.

Seeing that Yu Niang was about to pick up the remaining canes and continue knitting, Li Yuanjing suddenly had a clever idea and said:

"Yu Niang, don't worry, wait, let me think about it."

Li Yuanjing carefully thought about the topography of the pond, and suddenly felt that it would be a waste to make such a small fish basket with the few rattans he had left.

Mainly because he was familiar with the environment over the pool, Li Yuanjing had a vague feeling...

There are probably big fish in the pools with that kind of terrain!

An ordinary small fish like this is not very valuable, but what if you can catch a big fish?

Notice.

Even if later generations are so developed, those fishermen who catch big fish can make a small fortune, let alone now?

soon.

Li Yuanjing said:

"Yu Niang, let's braid it like this this time. The mouth will be larger. Do you see it? It looks like this."

Although Li Yuanjing's words were a bit arrogant, Yu Niang was very smart and quickly understood what Li Yuanjing meant and hurriedly started to make it up together.

It took more than an hour and almost all the rattan was consumed before the large and sturdy fish basket, which was more than one meter long, was completed.

At this time, Li Yuanjing no longer needs his 'golden water' when making bait.

He deliberately boiled a lot of fish oil when he was cooking just now.

Fish oil plus some tender fish meat is mixed with grain, which is close to the level of bait in later generations.

But three fish baskets, two large and one small, are already considered a big project. It doesn’t seem good to go there during the day...

After thinking for a while, Li Yuanjing directly asked Yu Niang to rest, and then go fishing in the middle of the night after she had had enough food and drink.

after all.

In this era when ordinary people have a luxury of eating vegetable soup, your family eats fish, meat and rice every day. You are a bit out of touch with the masses...



It's just past midnight.

The moonlight was cool and the village was quiet.

Li Yuanjing and Yu Niang were both full and full, so they set off with three fish baskets.

Arriving at the large water pool next to the small water pool in the morning, Li Yuanjing followed the steps, first nailing the deed, and then tying the safety rope.

Then let Yu Niang watch the safety rope while he releases the fish basket.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh."

soon.

Three fish baskets, two small and one large, were put into the water one after another.

Perhaps it was because the bait had been strengthened, and the fragrance was very strong. Within a moment, the fish took the bait, and went straight into the fish basket with a "bang".

Yu Niang was immediately shocked.

Looking at the scene in front of me in disbelief.

She was about to say something, but she suddenly reacted and covered her mouth hard.

But when she looked at Li Yuanjing next to her with her beautiful eyes, little stars were already twinkling.

Her brother is truly a scholar.

Only scholars can come up with such ingenious methods.

Feeling Yu Niang's admiration, and the fish constantly banging into the fish basket in the pond, Li Yuanjing felt refreshed.

This era doesn't seem to be bad...

After paying off the debt, slowly develop your own business, build a big house, and marry a few beautiful concubines...

Tsk tsk.

I wouldn't trade it for a god on this day.

But Li Yuanjing quickly returned to reality.

Fishing is only the first step, and then what is important is to do something to cash in, quickly exchange for money, and first repay Xue Dashan's ungodly debt and the tax that weighs on his head.

"Wow!"

While I was thinking idly, a large group of large water splashes suddenly surged out of the pool where there were only small splashes of water.

Immediately afterwards.

The big fish basket kept struggling violently.

Li Yuanjing hurriedly motioned to Yu Niang to step back and not move forward rashly, while he stared at it with wide eyes.

"I go……"

Li Yuanjing suddenly became smart and subconsciously opened his mouth.

I saw——

A black fish that was completely black and probably at least one meter long. Half of its body seemed to be stuck in the fish basket and it was struggling desperately.

"Brother, big fish, such a big fish..."

At this time, Yu Niang also saw clearly what was going on in the water. Her face was pale and she was in disbelief. She huddled tightly behind Li Yuanjing, her little body unable to stop trembling.

She has grown so big. She has never seen such a big fish before. It is almost bigger than her.

"God bless me, it's my turn to make a fortune!"

At this time, Li Yuanjing couldn't help but excitedly waved his fists.

The enhanced version of fishing bait is indeed awesome!

This is clearly a big catfish that took the bait.

Although catfish is not a good fish among fish and is not very valuable, it is still a destructor. There is a "catfish effect", which specifically refers to the destructiveness of catfish.
