Back at the port, Liang Qu paid two cents for the berthing fee and sold all the fish to the fishing pen, earning eighteen cents.
The fishing farm is essentially a lending organization, but it lends fishing boats and fishing gear, and collects fish catches as interest. For this reason, in addition to leasing fishing gear, it also assumes some of the responsibilities of a fishmonger, just like a dealer.
For fishermen who do not rent their fishing boats and fishing gear, the price is not bad and can save a lot of time and cost.
It was already midnight, and there were still shops open on the streets. After all, whether the shops were open or not depended on whether there were people. As long as there were fishermen out on boats, there would naturally be people doing this business.
Liang Qu happened to be empty in his stomach, so he went to a food shop and ordered the third dish, one meat, one vegetarian and one rice.
There is no oil, salt, and firewood at home, so we have to buy a lot of ingredients to cook by ourselves. It is better to eat out. We are all poor, so we only earn hard money, and a meal is only eighteen cents.
Don’t worry about saving money for now, let’s strengthen your body and bones first.
You can't move and swim slowly, but the deterrent is there and it can act as a road seal. In any case, it is a helper and is helpful for catching fish.
Early the next morning, Liang Qu found Li Libo who was selling fish at a stall along the street. He wanted to confirm that the news had not been leaked.
"Hey, Ah Shui looks really good now. How about a fish to replenish his health? Let's make fish head soup." Li Libo grabbed the gills of the fish and picked up a large silver carp.
"Seriously." Liang Qu squatted next to Li Libo, "I asked you not to tell anyone about what happened yesterday, but you didn't tell me, right?"
"What's the matter?" Li Libo was stunned, and then slapped his forehead when he realized it, "Hey, if you don't tell me, I will almost forget it. Don't worry, God knows that you know that I know, and no third person knows about it. Why hide it?"
"You'll know in two days."
Liang Qu didn't tell the truth. As an insider, even if he guessed the truth, Li Libo would not dare to tell anyone.
After urging again and receiving a positive reply, he happily picked a fish on the bed and gave him ten coppers.
"too much!"
"I'll buy you a drink if you want."
"Hey, you have too much money to spend, right?" Li Libo wondered in his heart, but his hands were not slow and he accepted the copper plate happily.
For several days after that, Liang Qu followed a normal fisherman's schedule and went out to fish. He didn't catch much fish every day, only about 30 yuan.
Zheng Xiang, the housekeeper of the Zhao Mansion, never came to see him again, which gave him some peace of mind.
The disappearance of Scarlet Zhang did not cause any disturbance at all. He was just a bachelor, so other people in Yixing City didn't care at all.
Perhaps no one would notice his disappearance until tax collection in late autumn, which was at least a month away.
As for Li Libo, he had forgotten about it a long time ago and still thought that Scarlet Zhang was just hiding outside to recuperate.
"I can feel at ease for a while."
Liang Qu, who had been on tenterhooks in recent days, finally let down his guard and focused more on himself.
In the past two days, apart from going to a restaurant every day to maintain his health, the rest of his food depended on Baozhi lotus root. He had eaten more than ten pieces and obtained 1.3 water essence, which was used to improve the fusion.
Baozhi who can heal injuries may be rare, but Liang Qu cares more about the present. The stronger he is, the less likely he will be injured.
[Ding Master: Liang Qu]
[Refining Zeling: Water Monkey (White) (Fusion Degree: 6.5%)]
[Water Essence: None]
[River Favor: None]
[Water Beast Command: Taihua Crocodile]
[Evaluation: Water Monkey Ze Ling is derived from the great Lord of Huaivortex, and can inspire little people who are weak and weak]
It takes about an hour from consuming the water essence to improve the fusion degree.
The 1.5 water essence increased Liang Qu's fusion degree to 6.5, and he could control forty pounds of water flow. He could be active underwater for more than ten minutes, his range of perception remained unchanged, and his physical fitness improved slightly.
Ingesting water essence does not affect the effect of lotus roots. After eating so many lotus roots, coupled with his youth, it makes up for the shortfall caused by long-term hunger. Liang Qu's body is already quite healthy, and he will not be exhausted a few times and die.
"You can control another water beast to help fish."
Liang Qu could feel that the limit of what his spirit could bear was between two and three "immobility"s. To be on the safe side, he could control another water beast that was similar to the immobility level.
In autumn, when the water is cold, Zhupolong moves slowly and is unable to catch fish. If it were not driven by Liang Qu, it would have hibernated long ago and slept until spring.
Now one person and one animal work together, and if he doesn't choose some expensive fish species, he can only catch 30 yuan of fish a day. It's not that he doesn't want to catch some expensive fish, he is worried that if he keeps catching, clues will be discovered.
Even if you want to catch them, you have to catch tiger-headed ones that are measured in silver.
After rowing the boat near the lotus root water area, Liang Qu slapped the water with his oar.
After receiving the summons, Pig Po Dragon appeared on the side of the boat carrying a few pieces of waterweed, scratched his waist with his hind paws, and blinked his eyelids.
Liang Qu took off his clothes, took a wooden spear and dived into the water.
Unable to move, it swung its long tail and swam beside him, with the water plants above its head floating away along the current. One person and one animal, exploring the surroundings.
The light in the water is weak, and you can still see the river bottom and aquatic plants in the shallow water. If you go deeper, your vision will be dark. Exploring the environment mainly relies on perception.
Liang Qu remained unmoved as common water fish passed by him. Today's target was a good helper.
He watched his direction and avoided entering deep water.
Large aquatic animals occasionally appear in shallow waters, but their length does not exceed four meters, so safety is guaranteed. This is different in deep waters. According to the older generation of fishermen, there are all kinds of monsters there.
After searching for an hour with Zhu Po Long, Liang Qu found nothing. It was not that there were no big fish, but they were not ferocious carnivorous fish.
He was not discouraged. The fishermen tied their horses to one pole and sat in a pond for a whole day, and then they got nowhere.
When I dived again and passed by a grass carp, a huge blurry figure suddenly disappeared against Liang Qu's perception circle, and the grass carp disappeared with it!
So fast!
Liang Qu was startled. He tightened his grip on the spear and summoned an immobile guard at high speed.
The figure I just vaguely perceived was at least two meters long, and he was a real big guy!
Unable to move, he quickly swung his tail and came to Liang Qu's side, spinning in circles to avoid being suddenly attacked.
Liang Qu thought it was a chance encounter, but unexpectedly the black shadow turned a corner and appeared in his perception circle again and began to circle around.
Rubbing the sensing circle, and occasionally entering the three-meter range several times, Liang Qu finally sensed what species the other party was, a six-bearded catfish!
The two-meter-long six-bearded catfish is rare. This fish has a ferocious temperament. When attacking, it will first move its pectoral fins to create a whirlpool to disorient the prey. Then it will open its huge and wide mouth and sweep the prey away like a vacuum cleaner. Suck it into your mouth and swallow it whole.
I heard that a child fell into the water in Yixing City and was eaten by this six-bearded catfish!
There is no doubt that the six-bearded catfish in front of him regards Liang Qu as its prey!
This fish is so brave, two meters long and nearly fifty kilograms. It actually dares to attack a person and a crocodile at the same time!
It's a sliding shovel, right? Give it away like this?
If Catfish meets the requirements in all aspects, the decision is yours.
With a crash, the catfish rolled in the water close to the river surface. Liang Qu immediately immobilized and charged. The crocodile moved slowly but attacked extremely fast. It was like a dagger piercing the heart. It stopped the six-bearded catfish in an instant. .
The catfish turned to avoid it, unable to move and swung its body to keep up. The moment it passed by, it swung its iron tail and hit the catfish on the head like a pendulum.
The head of the six-bearded catfish was bloody. It turned around and hit the soft belly of the pig-shaped dragon, but it had no effect. The pig-shaped catfish took advantage of the situation and hooked the catfish's fin with its sharp claws.
Liang Qu held his breath on the side, his pupils trembled slightly, and he stared at the battle situation. When the catfish was struggling, the water suddenly trapped its tail fin. This was a wonderful volley!
The six-bearded catfish lost its balance, and the pig dragon saw the opportunity and bit its tail!
The catfish struggled frantically trying to get away from the pig dragon. Liang Qu cut his finger on the gravel in his hand, and the blood dispersed into a blood line in the water. He stepped on the water and jumped behind the catfish. His black hair was like smoke, and he drew parallel lines with three fingers. Under the control of the water talisman!
