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, and 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.
"Besides, you didn't delay me for anything. There are a lot of fish in the river, so I can just cast a few nets in the middle of the night."
Then Yu Laosan said he wanted nothing, 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 to help, but the stern position was too small and could not accommodate three people, so he gave up. The remaining Mr. Yang, Yang Jiren, seemed to be too frightened and was a little weak. He leaned on the side of the cabin to recuperate.
.
Qingyang had never fished before and was still very unfamiliar at first. However, under the guidance of Yu Laosan, he quickly mastered the tricks. In less than half an hour, he caught several nets, not only some small fish but also small fish.
Shrimps, and even three big 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. His family has been fishing for generations and spent part of their lives on boats. The level of fishing is naturally extremely high. But he has never met anyone as enlightened as Qingyang.
For people with advanced skills, it only takes half an hour to go from being new to it, 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.
I was able to catch one, but the little brother Qingyang caught so many in a short time.
It's really irritating to see people compare to each other. If this little Qingyang brother were also working as fishermen here, they would probably have no way of living.
What Yu Laosan didn’t know was that Qingyang’s fishing level was actually 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
Yang used his spiritual mind, which was more convenient than observing with his eyes during the day. He could see the fish in the river accurately and caught them in the net before they escaped.
There were only three fish baskets on the boat, and the fish baskets were all full. There was no place to put them again, so they both held on. The night was already deep, 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, held the oar and silently watched the fishing boat drifting along the water.
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 downstream. 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.
Below 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 City.
Although Yang Jiren rested for most of the night, he was still very haggard. He was not willing 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 and then headed towards the fishing boat.
He took a deep look in his direction, 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 gang leaves the river like a fish leaves 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 their whole family couldn't lift it. With Qingyang's help, it would be no problem.
, Yu Laosan was holding a fish basket, and three other fish were strung up on his back and walking in front, while Qingyang was 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 already set up stalls.
I don’t know whether it’s because they don’t know each other or they’re not in the mood to talk. Yu Laosan walked in front and didn’t meet anyone to say hello. But when he saw the three big fish behind Yu Laosan, there was a trace of envy on his face, because
Most of them only have one fish basket.
Yu Laosan found a cleaner place. They put everything down, and then no one said anything, waiting for customers to come. Perhaps because of the three big fish, Yu Laosan quickly attracted customers.
, bought one of the big fish with a small amount of money.
A small sling of money is one hundred copper coins, and ten slings can be exchanged for one or two silver coins. However, this is already a very high price. It is right next to the Jinsha River, and the price of fish is extremely low. Ordinary fish and shrimps only cost two cents.
For one kilogram of money, a basket of fish can be sold for less than 100 yuan. Yu Laosan can only sell the fish he catches in one night for a penny, and then buy some rice and noodles.
This can be considered a good start. Yu Laosan’s face showed a hint of joy. As time went by, the sky became brighter and brighter, and there were gradually more and more customers on the street. Not only were there fish sellers on the street, but there were also some fish sellers.
Most of the others are from nearby villagers.
Yu Laosan's business was very good, and he met a shopkeeper who opened a restaurant in Kaiyuan Fucheng. He not only bought ordinary fish and shrimps, but also bought the remaining two big fish. In the blink of an eye, Yu Laosan had his hands on
So he got four or five coins. However, he brought too many fish this time, and all the other fishermen had gone. He still had a small half of the basket that he had not sold.
Seeing that it was already getting dark, people from the Jinsha Gang might come looking for me at any time. It was okay to not sell the remaining half of the basket of fish. Anyway, I had made enough money today, so I had better buy some rice and noodles first and go back to the boat as soon as possible to see my wife.
Still waiting for the rice to be cooked.
