Chapter 533 Surprise at the table (1800 plus, 4K for support!)
Of course Aaron didn't know that he was habitually keeping a low profile and had inadvertently avoided a lot of trouble.
However, even if I knew it, I wouldn’t take it seriously.
Because he is acting in an immersive way!
And, prepare to perform for several years!
No one would have the patience to keep an eye on a poor fisherman like him for several years!
…
Winter passes and spring comes.
Spring comes and winter comes.
The fields beside Taize Lake turned white twice, and two years passed slowly.
Spring returns to the earth and all things grow.
On Taize Lake.
The earthen pot on the small red clay stove was steaming, and the tea soup inside was boiling.
Aaron slowly made tea, blew on the hot air, and took a leisurely sip.
Seven things to do before opening the door: firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea. Drinking tea can cleanse the stomach and intestines, and it is also a pastime and habit...
After all, if you pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger, you can't really become a pig.
Boating on the lake, drinking tea and relaxing are also one of the great pleasures in life.
"Alas...life is boring, you have to have some fun."
Aaron focused on a light spot in the corner of his eye and opened the properties panel:
[Name: Fang Yu (Aaron)]
[Talent: Immortality]
【Age:18】
[Skill: Fishing (skilled)]
…
"After two years, I finally improved my fishing skills to proficiency... This was completely improved by my own exploration. What is the use of this attribute panel?"
After complaining about his golden finger, Aaron finished his tea and began to skillfully cast a net to catch fish...
"Huh?"
After closing the net, Aaron saw several small silver-gray fish that were jumping around. Their shapes were obviously different from ordinary crucian carp, carp, and big herring. His eyes immediately lit up: "I have been fishing for so many times, and finally it is my turn to make a fortune."
Is it done?”
These small silver-gray fish are swordfish, with delicious meat and rich nutrition.
Although it is far inferior to the 'Red Blooded Carp', it is still valuable. One fish can be sold for at least twenty or thirty dollars!
Moreover, someone will definitely buy it, so that it won’t be lost in their hands.
It can be said that the price/performance ratio is quite high.
Aaron quickly closed the net and fished the dolphins onto the boat. He counted them and found that there were three in total.
Immediately, he didn’t care about other fish and drove the boat directly, preparing to row to the ‘Sanshui Pier’ for sale.
These three fish are more valuable than the three fish in the usual tank!
'It's just that... I have to be exploited by that dead tiger again...'
'This is because the value of the sword bream is not too high, and the 'Goldfish Gang' doesn't want to exhaust the lake for fishing... After all, every one of us fishermen is a steady stream of leeks that grow automatically... If it were replaced by a 'red-blooded carp', I'm afraid it would be a killing.
Is Bao thinking about it?'
With a little bit of shame, Aaron rushed to the fish market the next day and sold three swordfish, earning sixty bucks.
Then, not surprisingly, 'Master Tiger' took away half of it with a smile, leaving only thirty big coins.
"Sigh... I've really lost all my eggs in the past two years. I'm worse than before. I haven't saved any money..."
Aaron touched his money bag and walked towards the Yuyang Restaurant.
Although he said that, because he was willing to spend money on himself and ate much better than before, his body developed and he grew taller again. His face not only gained a few ounces of flesh, but also gained some color.
Among many fishermen, he is already considered a good young man.
…
"Hey, Ayu is getting more and more handsome as he grows."
Siniang happened to be selling wine. When she saw Aaron, her eyes lit up: "Come and show Siniang..."
Two years have passed, and the landlady's charm has not diminished. Instead, she is as attractive as a ripe peach.
The drinkers around laughed: "Haha... Si Niang has fallen in love with Yu Zai... Yu Zai is really lucky!"
"Sister, when are you going to come and have a look and touch me?" Immediately, some drunk people began to talk.
"Bah! I don't like you..."
Si Niang spat. A woman who can work as a wine seller is naturally not easy to get along with. She has a fierce and bold personality: "If it were Ayu, I would consider it..."

While talking, he actually stretched out his emerald white hand to touch Aaron's face.
"Sister-in-law is joking...how do I have the qualifications?"
Aaron pretended to blush, stepped back, and dodged away gently and deftly.
He was telling the truth. Fang Yu was not qualified to sleep with Si Niang at this time. Otherwise, not to mention the malice of the military master behind her, or even the jealousy of these old men, it might bring bad luck!
"Have a bowl of old rice wine and a plate of plain meat."
Aaron took out six large coins and threw them on the counter. This was a diversion. It was crude and direct, but quite effective.
Sure enough, Lao Chutou was surprised and said: "Ayu, are you rich?"
"I was lucky yesterday and caught three dolphins..."
Aaron picked up the wine bowl and the plate of plain meat, and shared the table with Lao Chu.
"Then it can be sold for at least fifty or sixty bucks, right?" Xiao Chu's eyes lit up: "Oh...it's a pity that 'Master Tiger' will take away half of it..."
He has also reached the age where he should get married. At this time, he dreams about his wife, but he has no money...
"Alas..." Lao Chutou sighed, and told his son: "Don't say this again in the future."
It seems that because of this bad start, the drinkers started talking about other, worse topics.
For example, last year's harvest was not good, and this year's grain prices have increased by 20 to 30%, etc., and there was a lot of sighing.
Si Niang looked at Aaron silently, with a hint of smile in her almond-shaped eyes.
This young man is really getting better and better. He understands the truth, knows how to advance and retreat, and can lead the topic in an understatement. He really knows how to protect himself with caution.
The more this happened, the more she knew she could no longer tease him.
Life is not easy for everyone, so why bother a poor child?
Just then, a rough-footed farmer walked in.
Aaron recognized him, he was also a frequent visitor to the restaurant, and he had been thinking about Niu Er, the courtesan, who wanted to sleep with him all day long.
This guy seemed to have been possessed since the last time he saw the oiran Bai Mudan, and he hasn't seen anyone in some days.
"Hey, isn't this Niu Er? When are you going to sleep with the oiran?!"
One of the drinkers joked.
"Just today, just today." Another person said, and the restaurant was suddenly filled with a happy atmosphere.
But Niu Er was a little strange and kept covering his face.
It wasn't until I took out the money that I saw the red lines running side by side on my face.
"Ouch... was this scratched by a woman?"
Old Chutou was well-informed and told the truth: "Did you fight with your wife?"
Without saying much, Niu Er ordered two bowls of roasted knives and drank them.
Everyone was not in a hurry, knowing that this awesome guy would have a big tongue if he drank too much.
Of course, Aaron was not in a hurry. He asked for a small stove and slowly simmered the rice wine, taking a sip from time to time and enjoying himself.
Niu Er drinks very quickly. It seems that he is here to get drunk. When a person wants to get drunk, he will get drunk easily.
Seeing him blushing and drunk, a regular customer started the conversation: "Have you ever heard of 'White Peony'?"
"The former courtesan?"
"Hey... It's long gone out of fashion. Even oirans have to be sold, and if they sell too much, they won't be valuable anymore... Have you heard about it? Recently, a new oiran was elected in the government, called 'Hongyu'
'Girl, white peony people are old and pearly, they can only make way for newcomers..."
Aaron felt a little strange when he heard it.
Since gaining 'immortality', he has a deeper understanding of the shortness of breath of heroes and the twilight of beauty.
Even if the beauty is alluring for a while, she will eventually be beautiful and gray-haired when she grows old...
"After all, you have been an oiran, and you can live a good life after you retire, right?"
"Then you guessed wrong. 'White Peony' gave the eldest son of the Liu family a hard time at the Liu family's birthday party. She didn't say anything at the time, but she still remembers it now. She didn't even need to say anything, and someone would take care of the matter automatically.
Well...'White Peony' was sent directly to a low-class brothel to pick up customers, but the price is not cheap, eighty grand a time! Tsk tsk..."
One hundred big coins in Lin State can be exchanged for one tael of silver, and eighty big coins is not a small amount for them.
"Wait a minute... wasn't 'White Peony' covered by someone at the beginning?"
"Hey...it's easy to say that all the bad guys are scholars. At that time, celebrities praised her because she was young, beautiful and famous... Everyone gets what they want, but this woman doesn't seem to be very smart. She thinks she is a person, really
She was aloof and aloof, and she neglected the powerful. It was true that no one cared about her at the time, but times have changed, and it would be a sin to meet her!"
Aaron picked up a piece of white meat and nodded silently.
However, his cognition is different from ordinary people.
'Shilin Qingyi is the power of public opinion. It can be extremely powerful for a while, but it goes away quickly... If you want to be prosperous for a long time, you still have to combine it with the local tyrants, that is, the local tyrants and the powerful people of the family!'
'When the time comes and things change, and we come back to settle accounts in the autumn... then Young Master Liu can be considered to have deep thoughts and vicious methods.'
At this time, Niu Er suddenly slapped the table: "What are you yelling about... I'm telling you... don't look down on me. I'm a ghost even if I die under peonies. We, a cow, really just chewed peonies!"
For a while, the hotel was silent.
After a long time, a regular customer whispered: "Let me tell you... It turns out that Niu Er took all the money from the bottom of the family box and slept with Bai Mudan. No wonder his face was caught like this by the mother-in-law..."
The other old perverts couldn't wait to ask: "How does it taste when a cow chews peonies? Tell me, tell me!"
"hey-hey……"
Niu Er didn't know what he was remembering, and smiled silly: "That skin, tsk tsk... tenderer than tofu... moist in one word!"
"Then what?"
"Then...hiccup..."
Niu Er burped and fell down on the table.
"..."
A bunch of old bachelors with green eyes wanted to scold their mothers, and Xiao Chu was so anxious that he wanted to hit them.
How can it be stopped here?
Get up and tell me clearly!!!
"After a few bowls of horse urine, you won't know the talent of the east, west, and west!"
At this time, Siniang picked up the yellow-skinned gourd water gourd, scooped out a bowl of water, poured it on Niu Er's face, inserted it into her waist and cursed: "If you want to sleep, get out of here and sleep!"
All the men bowed their heads one after another, fully understanding that a good man cannot fight with a woman, especially an angry woman.
"Woooo..."
Niu Er suddenly fell down at his desk and burst into tears.
This scene shocked everyone.
"Niu Er...why are you crying?"
"Are you worried about money?"
"Or is my wife not allowed to go to bed?"
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" Niu Er sobbed, as if he had been stabbed in a sad place, and cried even harder: "I cry to myself, I hate myself for being incompetent..."
"Others' life is short...I am...I am...it's gone in just a few seconds!"
"Eighty big bucks... I'm so at a loss!"
…
"puff!"
Aaron sprayed a mouthful of rice wine all over the ignorant Xiao Chu's face. Unable to bear it, he could only bang the table and laugh.
This Niu Er was also very drunk, otherwise he would never reveal such privacy.
"well……"
Amidst the roar of laughter, Lao Chutou sat over and patted Niu Er on the shoulder comfortingly: "Brother Niu... I really didn't expect you to have such unspeakable secrets, but don't be afraid! Let's get along, I won't
Who can help you? If my brother catches a 'Longyang Trout' in the future, he will sell it to you at a cheap price... take it back and make soup to drink, and I will kill your mother-in-law to the point where she will lose her armor and regain her glory!"
Although he knew that there was no legend of 'Long Yangjun' in this world, Aaron still had goosebumps...
…
I have laughed, cried and scolded, but in the end I still can't escape the end of the song.
Aaron returned to the Sanshui Pier, untied the cable and rowed the awning boat into the lake.
Late at night, he arrived at his secret stronghold, the reed swamp.
His eyes gradually became inexplicable and profound: "Two years... I have achieved my goal faster than expected."
After he made up his mind to become literate, he selectively forgot what he had gained from "Liu Liu" here.
Only now, when I boast that I have read it thoroughly, do I come to discover it.
Holding the lamp, Aaron went to the place where he had marked the place. After digging a deep hole, Aaron dug out the pages that were neither leather nor paper.
Opening the oil-paper bag, he saw that the pages inside were completely empty. He couldn't help but express his concern: "I've been a little surprised for a long time. The material of this paper is not right. It's not afraid of water intrusion and insect damage. I'm afraid it's not a simple thing..."
Taking this piece of paper back to the cabin, Aaron turned on the oil lamp and studied it carefully.
"Two taels and six cents of green algae...One tael of silkworm chrysalis powder...Three cents of soybean powder...Two chicken eggs...Mica...Earth dragon yin..."
"...Knead into balls, seal with wax, and bury under the soil for seven days..."
"...At three o'clock in the hour, if you use it against the moon... then the fish will come!"
…
Aaron is already familiar with common words. Occasionally, when he encounters something he doesn't understand, he just guesses and uses the context to do reading comprehension and cloze, and he still understands a lot.
What is described on this page should be a method of 'fishing bait'.
Fishermen spread bait to lure fish, which is their special skill, but the method of making this bait is quite complicated, and there are some very strange conditions.
There are even certain regulations for its use, which require it to be used only in the middle of the night, on the water surface illuminated by moonlight!
"However, if it is really as described, and its effect is like a god...then the reason why Liu Liu always comes back with a full harvest every time he goes fishing, may be found. Is it because he has a powerful fishing bait in his hand?"
"Unfortunately, I still had some expectations. I thought it was some kind of martial arts secret book..."
"But what good things can fishermen get? That's it."
It is normal for fishermen to inherit heirlooms like this. To truly inherit a martial arts secret book or something, Aaron would have to imagine a bizarre and bloody third-rate life experience for 'Liu Liu'...
