Chapter 4 I'm just here to sell
...
Somewhere at the bottom of the lake, the water swayed.
Countless green aquatic plants grow in the bottom of the shallow stones, floating melodiously. This place is a good place for big shrimps and crabs to live in. A shrimp is lying transparently on a water plant, staring at the red worms swimming in front of them, and the double clamps have quietly approached.
It was about to clamp when a big mouth full of fine fangs suddenly appeared!
With a swish, the prawns were sucked into the abdomen and spit out the water without any trace of meat.
The fish around them ran away one after another.
The owner of this sharp-toned and big-mouthed mandarin fish seems to have entered a no-man's land. When the aquatic plants are sometimes swam and sometimes pecking in the mud, making the surroundings turbid. After a moment, the birds are alive.
The mandarin fish shaking its body nearly one meter long, wagging its tail leisurely, swelling its ventral fins, and heading to the next territory.
In the turbidity, a yellow light flashed away, almost rubbing against the fish fins.
And prey?!
The mandarin fish swam around with a snake, but found that there was no movement behind her, so she waved her tail and left.
But just as it turned around, a yellow water centipede on its body attached to the back of the water grass, slightly tilted over its head, staring at the leaving figure with small eyes. Suddenly, the six legs under its abdomen bounced, turning into a line of yellow light and shooting away. In the blink of an eye, it fell on the back of the big mandarin fish, and its six feet stretched out like scales and pierced into its flesh.
The mandarin fish suffered pain, twisted its strength and rolled in the water, stirring up waves of water, trying to get rid of it.
After receiving the order of the "king", the water slave naturally entangled it with his centipede-like slender body, and his belly and feet firmly clinged to the fish's body.
When hunting insects, they all seek stability first, then speed, ruthlessness, and accuracy. The water slaves will stick to the fish's body and quickly climb to the fish's head. The big-toothed head spreads the fish's head and slim the bones into it.
The big mandarin fish dominated the water for many years. Instinctively sensed something was wrong and hit the stone hard, but it was too late!
The water slave bit the fish's gills and injected venom.
Its venom is used to paralyze prey, and the other one can turn prey flesh and blood into water to absorb it.
What the king ordered was to capture it alive and not kill it, so it could naturally paralyze it.
After the water slave was enlightened, not only his body became larger, but his toxins also became much stronger. After two or three breaths, a large mandarin fish became stiff and numb.
At this moment, Ao Yan had already arrived ashore to put on his clothes, and when he heard a sudden sound of water behind him, he felt happy.
"It should be a water slave."
When I turned around, I saw no water centipede. Instead, a huge fish floated out of the water and floated towards me until my body was stranded on the shore. A huge yellow water centipede emerged from the ground of the fish body, crossed her sickles through the upper and lower lips, and dragged them hard.
It was like a person, dragging a heavy object hard.
This scene made Ao Yan very surprised. At the same time, he was much more attentive to the next time using the enlightenment technique, but I don’t know when the next time it will be, and the incense must be enough.
As he approached, he saw the fish clearly and weighed his eyes carefully.
The fish is 82 cm long, long horizontally, with a huge body. Its open and closed lips are full of fine fangs. It is indeed the fierce master of Xiangliu Lake.
“So very good.”
Ao Yan nodded quite satisfied and began to think carefully in his mind.
Such a fish can be at least twenty-five kilograms, and the market price is eleven cents per kilogram, but if it costs ten cents per kilogram, the fish can be sold at least two hundred and fifty cents. Hehe, this is higher than your own budget.
"I sold the fish and weighed two kilograms of cooked meat to reward you." Ao Yan looked at his stomach and said.
When he lowered his head, he also saw the water slave's quite agile head, looking at him earnestly, thinking that the mandarin fish was so arrogant before, but it was killed by the water slave in such a short time, which was quite relaxed.
So he said, "You did a good job this time. My uncle will remember you a merit. In addition, if you want to prey on weekdays, go to the small trench connecting Xiangliu Lake and don't be in our own territory. If you have any questions, you will call you here, go."
Such a fierce subordinate must not be in his own territory, otherwise he will have to be poor.
If you want to be poor, it is because other people's families are poor. We cannot go hungry ourselves. This is Ao Yan's current survival creed.
"Okay king." The water slave bowed and bounced, and his body fell into the air like an arrow, shot into the water, disappearing.
"Hehe, we're selling fish!" Ao Yan covered the fish basket, his wealth was not revealed, and good things could not be seen by others. It is the kingly way to make money in silence.
It was dawn, and Ao Yan quietly left the village. After walking for half an hour, he arrived at Canfen Town before noon. At this time, the market in the town was over, and even those who were left were closing their stalls.
Ao Yan felt a little anxious. He took a seat and shouted at the top of his throat as he saw on TV before.
"Selling fish! Selling fish! Fresh big fish! Cheap!"
After shouting for a while, people came and went on the street, most of them looked around, but they didn't even look at each other. Ao Yan suddenly became anxious.
"You guy, you're late. Everyone has rushed to have dinner at this time. How could you buy fish? Fish in our place is not easy to sell." The old man selling candied haws leaned over and reminded kindly.
"Old man, do you know any way to get the fish out as soon as possible?"
Ao Yan rubbed his hands and smiled, "This is the first time I'm not familiar with the place, so I'll ask more questions, it's definitely right."
"Can you let the old man see you?" The old man smiled kindly and pointed at the fish basket.
"You can think that the big-headed fish was injured when they came up. In addition, it took a long time to die if they saw the light again. Don't open the cover." Ao Yan was very careful.
Bighead fish are silver carp.
"Yeah." The old man nodded, reached out and pulled the strap and lifted it. His expression changed immediately: "Oh! So heavy! It's probably more than twenty kilograms. Such a big silver carp is rare. It can always be sold for two cents per kilogram. You don't want it here. Walk out of this Tianjie and turn left to Longtan Tower. Even if you have such a big fish, no one wants it. Just go there, the little old man will leave first."
"Then you go slowly, thank you." Ao Yan got the advice and hurriedly packed up Longtan Tower.
Longtan Tower, Tiger's Cave Residence, and Qingmu Pavilion are ranked among the three major restaurants in Mafice Town.
Yun Continue the dragon in the sky and the water, so Longtan Tower switches to seafood and seafood. Because the master of the palm is superb, the dishes are beautiful and delicious, the price is quite high in the town.
In this way, there are only two types of people who can enter the building and enjoy it.
One is power, the other is rich.
The building is five floors and 18 meters high, with stone as the basis and wood, all painted with vermilion lacquer, making it grand.
Ao Yan looked at the coarse cloth clothes on his body. The river mud on his feet had not been washed clean, and the stone steps in front of Longtan Tower were clean and a little shabby. He thought that he was "in the immortal class" at least, but now he was selling fish for a livelihood, so he couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Hey! What are you doing!"
At this moment, a waiter walked out of the door and shouted at Ao Yan.
Ao Yan looked up at the young man who was twenty-eight or nine years old, wearing neat gray cloth clothes. When he saw him, he was always arrogant and looked contemptuous, and he was not annoyed. He smiled and said, "Brother, I heard that Longtan Tower specializes in collecting fish. I made up a special one to sell this morning."
“Selling fish?”
The child looked suspicious. There were many fish sold in Longtan Tower, but he could do whatever fish. Then wouldn’t he be able to enter this place? If he had some low-end goods, he would definitely be scolded by the shopkeeper, but if he was good, he might be praised.
"Take it and show it to me."
"This fish cannot see light under the sun. You should think about it first. If you think it is OK, just call the shopkeeper to see it."
"Hey!" The child let out a strange voice, but he didn't dare to refute.
If the fish is left for a long time, it will not shine on the sun. But the boy's tone is not begging, which makes him a little unhappy. He thought to himself that if you want me to weigh it, I will weigh it. But this fish costs only ten kilograms. I will kick you out immediately. After working for a few years, I have seen a lot of fish, but I catch it very accurately. When I see the movement, I know what kind of fish it is.
"Looking at this, it's either silver or grass." He thought to himself.
As a result, he reached out to take the fish basket and picked it up. The fish inside jumped twice, and his expression suddenly changed and he muttered to himself: "Is this size, this weight, this strength, this strength,..."
He looked at Ao Yan in surprise and said immediately: "I'm so stunned. Come with me to the back hall. I'll call the shopkeeper."
At this time, both the face and the words were extremely respectful and no longer as arrogant as before.
Ao Yan nodded and followed him in. After a while, the waiter came out with a middle-aged fat man.
But I saw this man wearing a loose blue dark flower dress, with fair and greasy skin, narrow eyes, a slit nose, thin lips, and two small beards on his lips were always twisted by his hands wearing turquoise rings. He always had a kind smile on his face, which made people feel harmless and very close.
When Ao Yan saw it, he realized that he was a smart and smart person.
He looked at the closed fish basket and the fish inside jumped twice. The middle-aged fat man jumped, opened his eyes narrowed, and said in surprise: "This is... a very powerful big mandarin fish!"
He was amazed several times, and then his eyes left the fish basket, narrowed his eyes again and said to Ao Yan: "I want this fish, how much do you want to sell it?"
