Chapter 531 The World (1600 Plus)

After the fire is turned off, the aroma of the fish soup in the crock is overflowing.

Although only fish and salt are used, what is obtained is a natural delicacy.

After Aaron's thin body smelled it, his stomach started to growl.

He scooped himself a bowl of fish soup with a broken bowl, looked at the light red soup, and slowly blew hot air.

If it was the young Fang Yu from before, even if he caught a big fish, he would not be willing to eat it himself, so he would definitely sell it at the fish market.

Then the small fish and shrimps that couldn't be sold were brought back to eat by themselves.

Stinky fish and rotten shrimp, friends for dinner, that's all.

Occasionally when there is a festival or a lot of fish are caught, crabs, shrimps, and any kind of fish will be stewed into a pot, sprinkled with fluffy salt, and served as a tooth-beating offering.

I heard that this way of eating came from pirates at sea, so it is also called 'pirate pot'.

Aaron would rather invest in himself than make it cheap for others.

After taking a sip of the light red fish soup, he immediately felt a strong umami taste that stimulated his taste buds, and the fish meat was also elastic. After sliding down his throat and into his stomach, there was a slight heat flow, which made Aaron no longer feel the rainy night the chill.

"As expected of a small dragon!"

Aaron sighed, as if he had sensed the strong demand from his still-developing body, and began to quickly eliminate the fish soup.

While eating the 'Red Blood Carp', more fragmentary memories emerged in his mind.

"The 'Red Blood Carp', known as the 'Little Dragon', is rumored to have a trace of dragon blood, and it is a specialty of Taize Lake..."

"People who practice martial arts eat it, which can greatly replenish their vitality, strengthen their foundation and cultivate their vitality, and make progress by leaps and bounds!"

"Three years ago...the 'Crimson Blood Carp King' appeared in Taize Lake, and the big family of the mansion, the 'Cao Family', forced many fishermen to go into the water to search for it...the parents of this body died because of this..."

"I'll write down this grudge first. It's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge in ten years! If I take revenge, it's not too late for a hundred years or a thousand years! Even if the person involved in the Cao family is gone, wouldn't there still be a great family of children and grandchildren?"

After drinking the fish soup, throw all the fish bones and bones into the lake.

Aaron sat cross-legged, only feeling the heat flow from his stomach, and his whole body was warm.

Even if you don't know much about martial arts, eating 'red blood carp' can also replenish your vitality, which is more beneficial to the thin body of a young man.

Taking advantage of this heat, Aaron wrapped up a torn quilt and fell asleep directly in the cabin.

The tide rolled, and the thunderstorm roared.

The boat kept rocking, but Aaron felt extremely at ease.

This is the habit of the body, if it is replaced by a flat and stable ground, then he will not be able to sleep.

"Since I came to this world, my alias from now on will be Fang Yu!"

Before going to sleep, a thought came to Aaron's mind.

...

the next day.

The clouds gather and the rain breaks, and the sun shines.

Aaron untied the rope, went boating on the lake, and began to look for fish schools and cast nets to catch fish according to the experience he remembered.

As a result, at the end of the day, I got nothing!

After all, Fang Yu's fishing skills were not very good.

Then, Aaron had always been the noble young master before, and later he became the Creator, and he never did fishing at all.

Often the head - 'you will'!

Hand - 'No, you won't! '

However, fishing nets are used too much, and they are easy to rot due to humidity, so they need to be aired and repaired frequently.

Aaron later ditched the nets and started spearfishing.

Really don't say it.

Relying on his previous stabbing skills, the success rate is much higher than fishing.

This gave Aaron a deeper understanding of the level of [Fishing (Entry)] in his attribute column.

However, there is also a downside to spearfishing, that is, the fish dies soon after being pierced... there is no way to store it for a long time!

You can eat it by yourself, but you want to sell it... It stinks before you reach the fish market!

The boat people live in no fixed place, and it is possible to fish on the lake for several days or ten days.

In the next few days, Aaron gave up the harpoon and began to think about fishing with a fishing net. With the memory in his mind, he became proficient after a few times. But there is no time to return with a full load.

Three days later.

morning.

Aaron drove his black awning boat and brought all his belongings to the 'Sanshui Wharf'.

There's no way... I'm done eating the salt!

The soil salt here is black and yellow in different colors, and it is also mixed with silt, and it is unknown how many heavy metals it contains.

Aaron didn't dare to eat it directly, so he could only add water to the 'coarse salt' to boil it repeatedly and filter out impurities to make it into fine white salt for consumption.

In this way, the consumption rate of salt is naturally astonishing.

After a few days, there is no salt to eat.

I can only come to the fish market to sell fish for money, and then go to a nearby store to buy salt...

As for using advanced technology to purify refined salt, or sell white sugar?

Aaron didn't even think about it.

Is it true that the government and private salt dealers are good people?

The world is still relatively peaceful now, and a poor man like Fang Yu, even if he is exhausted, has nothing to lose. As long as he is more honest and responsible, no one will trouble him.

As for the intense and concentrated conflicts, those are the plot needs of novels and TV dramas.

If the poor are more honest and responsible, they will have a high incidence of disasters and injustices three or four times in their lifetime...

Of course, one injustice may destroy the family of ordinary people who have no risk resistance...

‘Just one purpose now, don’t attract attention! '

‘You must survive this fragile period until you have the power to protect yourself, keep a low profile, keep a low profile! '

Aaron wore a coir raincoat and carried a bamboo basket full of live fish. He moored the boat at a berth and went to the pier.

Immediately, a clerk in soap clothes came over, smelled the fishy smell on Aaron's body, and immediately showed a disgusted expression: "The parking fee is three big dollars a day!"

Aaron gave the money honestly. If you don’t stop at the pier, you can dock in the surrounding water bays, but it’s not safe, and second, the petty officials often patrol the surroundings. When they see ships parked in disorder, they will tow them away, or even burn them directly!

Otherwise, how can it be said that the hearts of the people are like iron, and the laws of the government are like furnaces?

Little people with no power want to go boating on the lake, don't care about world affairs, and be at ease, it's too difficult, too difficult!

The fish market is right next to the pier, and before dawn, Aaron took the bamboo basket, squatted down in an empty space, and started to set up a stall.

Although he still has some money in his placket, it is also to maintain his personality.

Anyway, the rest of my life is long, and it is quite interesting to play the role of a fisherman wholeheartedly.

Immediately, the guest didn't come, and a man in his thirties with a full beard, wearing a jet-black bunt, showing strong tendons, and two followers stood in front of Aaron: "Yo? Isn't this Ayu?"

"Master Tiger!"

Aaron rolled his eyes in his heart, took out another five big coins, and handed them over.

'Master Tiger' is the steward of the 'Goldfish Gang', this fish market is controlled by the 'Goldfish Gang' by default, and every fish seller has to pay a share, this is also the rule!

"Hehe... It's much easier to pay the money this time than before, isn't it?"

'Master Tiger' squatted down with a half smile, opened the fish basket, and glanced at the fish brought by Aaron.

They are all very ordinary goods, and the quantity is also small.

This is similar to Fang Yu's previous gains, and even slightly worse.

Aaron was smiling all over his face, MMP in his heart.

This 'Master Tiger' obviously became suspicious, suspecting that he had caught some precious fish.

'If you bring the 'red blood carp' to sell, it's almost like sending a sheep to a tiger's mouth... um... But fishermen don't have long memories, they secretly take them to the city and sell them directly to restaurants... But it's still very difficult. Danger! '

...

After finally fooling 'Master Tiger' away, Aaron looked up and found that it was just dawn.

At this time, people in twos and threes finally came to the fish market to buy goods.

All the fishermen cheered up and began to shout:

"Sell fish!"

"Sell fish!"

"The best red-tailed carp is abundant every year. It's a good omen..."

"Look at this shellfish, it's fresh and tender!"

"Live and jumpy freshwater shrimp, if you come late, you will be gone!"

...

"Auntie, do you want to buy fish?"

Aaron saw an old lady wearing a wooden hairpin and a blue and white sarong approaching, and hurriedly greeted her.

Make money, don't be shabby!

"How do you sell this fish, young man?"

The aunt took a fancy to the biggest crucian carp and found that it was alive and kicking, and it was indeed very fresh, so she asked with satisfaction.

"In the past, it was ten big money. I think it is cheaper for you. It only costs eight big money, and I will clean it for you. What do you think?"

The woman hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "That's OK!"

The business opened up, and Aaron's markdown helped a lot.

But when he watched his biggest fish being bought away, he suddenly fell silent...

'After so many days of fishing, the biggest one was bought... I got eight big money, and I just made up the amount that was exploited before...The next fish will not be so easy to sell, what a loss... '

Sure enough, Aaron's premonition came true.

After the biggest fish was bought, a few more customers came, and they were not very satisfied with picking left and right.

Even if the price is reduced, it is difficult to impress the other party.

By the time the sun was high, Aaron had only sold less than half of the fish, and the fish market had already closed, and the rest could only be thrown away.

After calculating the accounts, a total of 20 big money was recorded in the account, and after deducting the exploitation, there were still twelve big money left.

"Alas... close to the river and sea, the fish can't be sold at a high price, and inland transportation is a trouble... there is a price but no market."

Aaron sighed, put away the fish basket, and went to a shop in the fish market. With his own savings, he bought a jar of salt for 20 bucks.

The salt numbers of officials and merchants are only located in the city.

So this shop on the wharf actually sells...private salt!

However, it is said that the owner of the firm has a strong background and is well-off in the official world, so no one cares about it.

‘Private salt is so inferior in quality and high in price...why don’t the salt sellers roll it up? '

'Monopoly industry... oh, that's all right! '

Aaron passed a fortune-telling booth while carrying a fish basket and an earthen jar.

Although he couldn't understand the ghostly characters, he still knew the pen and paper.

But he just glanced at it, and walked over as if nothing happened.

Although he really wants to learn Chinese and calligraphy, Aaron is not in a hurry.

After all, they are immortal, so they still care about this little time?

When he came to the fish market this time, he only wanted to find out the bottom line, and he didn't do anything else that could attract attention.

Not long after, Aaron walked out of the fish market and came to a restaurant by the pier.

This restaurant only has a few kitchens and stoves at the back, and a shed is built outside to block the sun, which looks very simple, and a signboard with peeling paint is erected outside the shed.

Although Aaron is illiterate, he remembers that people call this place 'Yuyang Restaurant'.

He looked at the signboard and secretly remembered it.

Walking into the restaurant, the tables and stools on all sides are missing arms and legs, but most of the people who come here to drink wear short skirts, and their clothes are full of patches, so they don't care about it at all.

Some bought wine directly on the counter, took wine bowls and dishes, and squatted at the door to drink.

Only two wines are sold here.

One is 'burning knives', which is extremely strong in the mouth, and it is most suitable for warming up the body.

The other is 'Old Yellow Wine', which becomes more fragrant the more it is stewed.

Side dishes with wine include broad beans, dried tofu, and sliced ​​white meat.

Burning knives and old rice wine cost a big buck a bowl, broad beans and dried tofu cost a big buck a dish, and white sliced ​​meat cost five big bucks a dish.

If you really want to eat meat, but you can't afford five big bucks, you can also buy three big bucks a bowl of rotten meat noodles, which is right as a tooth-beating sacrifice.

In the past, every time Fang Yu sold fish in the fish market, he would come here to order a bowl of 'burning knives' and order other appetizers depending on the situation.

The humidity on the lake is heavy, not to mention the old fishermen, in their 30s and 40s, they have difficulty bending and stretching, and backaches abound.

The second thing is that I want to see the owner of the 'Yuyang Restaurant' - Si Niang!

There are always many unsatisfactory things in life. After suffering so long, suffering people also need a place to vent.

After hard work, coming to see the beautiful lady boss, drinking and bragging, and making jokes are one of the few pleasures in Xiaomin's life.

"Yo? Ayu, you haven't come for a while."

Walking into the restaurant and coming to the counter, the shop waiter knew Fang Yu, and asked with a smile, "What do you want?"

‘Warm two bowls of wine and order a plate of fennel beans! '

Aaron almost blurted out that this sentence was indeed said by a certain writer, but he held back: "As usual!"

"Come on! A bowl of 'burning knives' and a plate of dried tofu!"

Aaron took out two large coins, took the wine bowl and dishes from the counter, found a corner and sat down to drink slowly.

Although the bench seems to be a little uneven, and the tabletop has some wooden thorns...but Fang Yu before obviously didn't care about this.

The burning knife is extremely intense, like a line of fire going straight into the stomach, which is completely different from the feeling of eating 'red blood carp' soup.

Aaron picked up a piece of dried tofu and tasted it slowly, while quietly pricking up his ears:

"Speaking of the mansion...have you seen the oiran 'White Peony'? I saw it last time. She is really a beauty like a fairy. If I can sleep once, it will be worth dying..."

"Haha, Niu Er, you should go to Xichengtou Tofu Square. What do you want about White Peony?"

"If you want to see beauties, you really have a chance!"

"This year's Patriarch Liu's 60th birthday, he wants to invite the theater troupe to sing a three-day and three-night play. As long as you say auspicious words, you can eat whatever you want at the water table!"

...

Not long after Aaron sat down, several fishermen came in. They were all familiar with each other. They greeted each other and sat down to eat and drink.

No one mentioned the matter of dysentery Liu.

After all, he is not considered 'missing' now, at least he has to disappear for more than a month before anyone notices something strange.

Moreover, I don't know whether he owed gambling debts and ran away, or if he fed the Dragon Lord.

Obviously, the government doesn't care about a black household who has no registered household name Qimin, and even if they report the case, no one may pay attention to it.

The burning of the knife was intense, and it didn't take long for Aaron to feel a little drunk.

"Si Niang is here!"

At this moment, someone shouted something, and the eyes of everyone in the restaurant lit up.

Aaron also turned his head away in a hurry, and saw a plump woman with disheveled hair coming from the back kitchen.

She is about thirty years old, her appearance is not particularly outstanding, but she has the charm of a mature woman, especially her skin can be easily broken, and her chest is deliberately lowered to reveal a white and smooth face, which matches her face. The watery almond eyes are enough to make any man addicted.

"I'm late, all distinguished guests take your time."

Si Niang has long sleeves and is good at dancing. It is said that she leaned against a certain military leader in the city behind her and greeted every customer. Even Aaron in the corner was called out by her name and said something specially.

For a time, the restaurant was full of voices, and the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves.

"Everything in the world is contained in it..."

When the sun was setting, Aaron walked out of the restaurant and walked to the pier with the fish basket.

The good times are always so short, and life goes on...
