454 Fishing and Daughter-in-law

"You, you want a wife?" Iszave was a little surprised.

"My brother... is young, cooks, washes clothes, and has children!" Hong Tao shook his head and continued to repeat the conditions with his fingers.

"Chengchengcheng, I understand... Young people are precious. We need almost... five horses, young horses, not old horses!" Iszawei held down Hong Tao's big hand, not wanting to listen to those bullshit anymore, but

There was a glimmer of light in his eyes, and he stretched out five fingers.

"Five horses!!!" When Hong Tao heard the price, his mouth immediately turned into a shower head and sprayed Iszawi in the face.

"Oh... just five horses, young ones, no more than 30 years old, in good health!" Iszave was disgusted, but there was nothing he could do. He wiped it with his sleeve and took two steps back before daring to continue.

bargain.

"No... no more..." Kerim could certainly afford five horses, but Hong Tao was not happy. It was just five horses, which was too expensive.

"...Four horses, the lowest is four. If you don't open your eyes and take a look, can you find a young woman here? To tell you the truth, if you want to find a young woman, you have to buy a nun in white from the base. Do you think it can be cheaper?"

"

Seeing Hong Tao's determination, Iszave thought that the price might be a little high, so he automatically lowered the price, and then began to describe to Hong Tao how difficult it was to purchase the goods.

"Under 10 years old, three mares, well trained!" Hong Tao doesn't care about that. Even if you pull Chang'e down from the moon, you will only have so many horses.

"Is it possible to be a little older? Early 30s!" Iszawi felt that the price was indeed unaffordable and planned to relax the conditions a little.

"Cooking, washing clothes, herding sheep, and having children!" Hong Tao thought for a while. Kerim was already in his 40s, so it would be a waste to marry someone in his 20s. He didn't need to be young.

But the next few things must be met. Don't find me a delicate and frail city girl who can't do anything in the valley and is sick all day long. She will die of illness in less than two months.

"Hey, don't worry. I promise to meet your conditions. You have to be strong, otherwise I won't be able to withstand the torment of you two brothers, hehehe..." Iszave was quite reasonable. He thought that Hong Tao was marrying his brother.

Then two people used it together, and they laughed so hard that they looked obscene.

"When will we meet?" Hong Tao didn't bother to explain when faced with such a piece of shit. He thought whatever he wanted and said it after seeing the person first.

"...Uh...don't you want to go fishing with Sister Zhuma? You won't be able to leave for the next two days. How about I bring you when you come back?" Iszawe pinched his fingers and didn't know what to do.

What? It took a long time to give out the specific date.

"Nuns can't fish...the road is not easy..." Only then did Hong Tao remember that Kerim's problem was solved, but he was in big trouble.

Where to go fishing? You definitely can't take a nun to Sailimu Lake. The question is, is there really a lake in the south? Are there really fish in the lake? If you don't find it or there are no fish, you will have to reveal your secret on the spot.

"You have to go anyway, I didn't hear Sister Zhuma say that the bishop wants to eat!" Iszave seemed uncomfortable with two grenades in his arms, and was not in the mood to talk to Hong Tao.

His head got through the door behind the counter.

"Good people can drive you to death... Damn it!" The owner of the shop was gone, so Hong Tao had no choice but to come out and sit at Zhang Pinggui's tea stall, chewing biscuits while cursing in his mind.

He had already thought about it. When that nun came later, he said that the road was difficult and he could only go alone. If she insisted on following, then don't blame him for being ruthless. As long as there were not too many people, they would kill them all when they got to the mountains.

, and then I won’t come here anymore. If you want to go to southern Xinjiang, just go around from the east, thousands of kilometers are a waste!

I don’t know if the nuns eat like the army. Less than an hour after they met and parted, Sister Jumabayi came back, followed by two ascetics in white clothes, together with Hong Tao’s two horses.

Five horses.

"Is the mountain road to the south so difficult to walk?" After hearing Hong Tao's description of how difficult it was to walk and how difficult it was to reach the sky, Zhumabai was not too judgmental and turned to ask the ascetic monks for their opinions.

"After the earthquake, the original road collapsed, and you really have to take mountain roads in some places. If you go to the mountainous area south of Turks, there should be no way at all. Only shepherds can find it." The two ascetic monks in white obviously didn't want to go, looking from the side

I endorsed Hong Tao.

"Can you come back the day after tomorrow if you go alone?" Zhumabai probably didn't want to go either, but she seemed very worried about the bishop's banquet.

"It's very tight... I'm traveling all night!" Hong Tao nodded, his tone heavy.

"It's faster if you ride these two horses." After hearing Hong Tao's assurance, Zhumabai nodded slightly and waved to the two ascetics in white to pull their horses over.

"No, they can't walk on mountain roads... they are fast on flat ground!" It should be a profit to trade a good horse for an old one. If he hadn't lived with Kerim for so long, Hong Tao would definitely be enjoying himself. But now

Not only did I not feel it was profitable, I had to decline it politely.

As the saying goes, an old horse knows the road, and a well-trained horse has a strong ability to recognize the road. Riding these two horses back to Sailimu Lake, it is hard to say whether they will remember it. Even if they don’t remember everything, as long as they can remember half, they will be able to remember it.

His lair is basically exposed.

"Here, here are the things I'm going to take on the road, as well as the fishing rods and hooks. Come back at noon the day after tomorrow, the more fish the better, and there will be a reward for you then!" Zhumabayi turned around and walked to the pure horse.

Next to Bai's tall horse, he took off his saddle bag and handed it to Hong Tao, promising more benefits.

Looking at the nun's back, Hong Tao felt that she must have a good figure. Even though her whole body was covered in a wide cloak, she couldn't see it when she walked slowly with small steps. But once she took a long step and walked hastily, part of her body outline

It will still show up a bit.

"The bishop likes to eat fish?" But there is a question that I don't quite understand. Is the bishop of the Redeemer so greedy? He would die if he didn't eat fish. Look at the torment of his subordinates.

"It's not that the bishop wants to eat, it's that we have guests from the mainland. The base has been cleaning since yesterday, and many people have been specially sent to dig up wild flowers on the hillside and plant them. Dear guests!" Zhang Pinggui sat on the street all day long.

It's more of a sentry than a sentry. They have a changing of the guard, but he doesn't. It lasts a day at a glance.

"Entertain the guests, okay!" This answer made sense. Hong Tao nodded seriously, as if he was very hospitable, turned around and left. But what he was thinking about was another thing, the two grenades and

Will there be any contact with the upcoming distinguished guests?

As the saying goes, the enemy's friends are the enemy, and the guests who can be valued so highly by the Redeemer must not be friends of the resistance. If something unexpected happens to these guests outside the main base, the Redeemer seems to have a few words to explain.

In three days, can Hong Tao find the so-called big lake, successfully catch the fish and come back? Damn it, he doesn't even know where the lake in the south is, and he hasn't walked half of the way along the way. Can he survive in three days?

Walking through the Turks over mountains and ridges is a problem.

Moreover, some lakes in Xinjiang Province are salt water. They look big, deep and clear, but in fact there are no fish or shrimps in them. At most, there are some salt-alkali tolerant plankton and water birds.

He had no plans to go fishing in the south at all, but was planning to return to Sailimu Lake. There were ready-made simple cages there. He couldn't eat the fish he usually caught, and he couldn't dry so many dried fish, so he kept them in small nets.

In the box.

It took three days to cover less than 200 kilometers round trip via shortcuts, most of which were mountain roads. I definitely wouldn't have been able to do it two months ago, but it should be about the same now.

In the past two months, in addition to following the mountain roads pointed out by Crime, I also took the initiative to explore several times and successfully found a road that led directly to a small coal mine in the northwest of Yining.

There is no need to go through Huocheng if you take this road, and the one-way distance can be shortened by nearly 30 kilometers. It was originally reserved for a rainy day, but now that the rain is almost coming, you can use it first.

In fact, even if there is no fishing, he still has to go back as soon as possible. Iszavi said that he can find the white nun from the base, and Crime will not care about the identity of his wife, but he has to exchange three horses.
