After returning home, I informed Su's mother and Su Ye that the trouble at Golden Square had been resolved. Su's mother and Su Ye were both sincerely happy.
But Su Hao could tell that although they were relieved, Su's mother and Su Ye were both a little sad and worried, naturally because of the missing Su He.
After dinner, when night came, Su Hao and his family all went to bed early.
[Ebony Treasure Chest (Charge: 5/100)]
Before going to bed, Su Hao opened the properties panel and took a look at his treasure chest.
The sandalwood treasure chest can increase the charging progress by 1 point every day. Now it has accumulated 5 points. In other words, it will take about 100 days to upgrade to the black iron treasure chest. Of course, during this period, if Su Hao increases the charging progress by killing fish, he can Approximately doubled in length.
"Wait until it is upgraded to a black iron treasure chest before opening it."
Su Hao did not choose to open the sandalwood treasure chest. The rewards found in the sandalwood treasure chest were all quite ordinary. Su Hao felt that the treasure chest must be at least a black iron level in order to obtain items of great value!
After a night of silence, Su Hao got up early the next morning and took action. He took out the 'Emerald Carp' from the fish basin under the bed and put it into a fish basket made of woven bamboo.
This emerald carp is Su Hao's biggest harvest this time when he went fishing. Emerald carps are rare and exquisite among treasure fish, and are far more valuable than the combined value of red-scaled fish, iron-horned fish and other precious fish. This is Su Hao's biggest reliance in finding a backer for himself!
Carrying the fish basket, Su Hao came to the door of a house located on an old street. The door was closed tightly, and there were two stone lions standing at the door.
Su Hao took a deep breath, stepped forward and knocked on the door knocker.
"Dong dong dong!"
The door knocker sounded, and Su Hao waited quietly.
"Squeak!"
Not long after, the door opened, and a slightly tanned man appeared at the door.
This person is none other than Liu Peng, one of the managers of the East District of the fish market.
"Ahao?" Liu Peng looked at Su Hao in front of him in slight surprise.
Su Hao said with a cautious expression: "Manager Liu, I have received a lot of care from you in the fish market over the years. I specially brought some gifts and came to visit you."
Liu Peng saw the fish basket that Su Hao was carrying. As the saying goes, you can't hit someone with a smiling face. Not to mention that Su Hao sold several treasure fish yesterday, which also increased Liu Peng's business. A smile appeared on his face. : "You're too polite, then come in and talk."
Liu Peng invited Su Hao into the courtyard.
There was a scent of vegetables wafting out from the courtyard hall, and it looked like Liu Peng was having breakfast.
From the hall, a slightly hoarse voice sounded: "Ayi, is there a guest? Bring him in and sit down."
Liu Peng nodded and led Su Hao into the hall.
There is a table in the hall. The table is filled with several dishes, including fish and beef. It is quite rich. Ordinary families cannot eat such a sumptuous meal several times a year.
Sitting next to the table was a middle-aged man who looked a little older, with half-white hair, a lean build, and obvious wrinkles on his forehead.
The middle-aged man's face was slightly pale, and he seemed to be in a bad mood. He only had a pair of eyes that were bright and sharp, as sharp as an eagle, making people afraid to look directly at them.
"Liu Shouyi..." Seeing this middle-aged man who was about to enter old age, Su Hao's identity immediately emerged in his mind.
In the outer city of Dayu County, there are also many remarkable people with great reputations, Liu Shouyi is one of them.
Liu Shouyi, who was good at martial arts and had killed water thieves, was once the manager of the East District of the fish market. He was a big shot in the eyes of ordinary people. There were even rumors that Liu Shouyi had the opportunity to become the manager of the fish market!
Dayu County is close to the Dajiang River and has developed fisheries. The fish market is naturally a big piece of meat. Anyone who has the opportunity to be the general manager of the fish market is extraordinary.
It's just that Liu Shouyi suddenly stopped serving as the director of the East District of the fish market ten years ago. He retired and rarely appeared in front of people. According to external rumors, it seemed that he was injured and chose to retire at the height of the limelight.
Liu Shouyi was also the target of Su Hao's trip.
There are several reasons. First, he was able to get in touch with Liu Shouyi through his relationship with Liu Peng. Second, Liu Shouyi was rumored to have been seriously injured, which seriously hurt him, so he resigned from his original position. The jade carp was in great need, which was why Su Hao took the initiative to come to the door.
"Dad, this is the Ah Hao I told you about yesterday. His family owes Huangjinfang a lot of money. Ah Hao entered Dajiang alone and caught several treasure fish to pay off the family's debt. I am here with him. You don’t have this ability when you’re young.”
Liu Peng smiled at Liu Shouyi and introduced Su Hao.
Liu Shouyi nodded slightly. When he chatted with Liu Peng during dinner yesterday, he learned what happened yesterday from Liu Peng's mouth.
It was indeed good to catch a few treasure fish, but Liu Shouyi didn't take it to heart. In Dayu County, there have been fishermen who were luckier than Su Hao over the years. A moment of good luck was not unusual.
"Uncle Liu, I brought some gifts, please accept them." Su Hao greeted respectfully and raised the fish basket in his hand.
"Too polite."
Liu Peng took over the fish basket instead of Liu Shouyi.
Liu Shouyi's expression was neither salty nor bland. Over the years, there were many people who came to his door to give gifts and make friends. If Su Hao had not been a young man, he would not have let Liu Peng take him in.
"Ah Hao, you caught a lot of fish this time, is there any good stuff left?"
Liu Peng was quite curious. Yesterday, Su Hao sold several treasure fish in the fish market, and today he came to give him a gift. It seemed that he wanted to make friends with him, the manager, so that he could get along better in the fish market. Su Hao wouldn't bring an ordinary fish to the house, would he?
Liu Peng looked curiously into the fish basket. This sight made Liu Peng a little stunned.
There was only one fish in the fish basket. It didn't look too big, weighing at most three kilograms.
What shocked Liu Peng was that the fish looked like a carp, and its entire body was light green, especially its scales, which looked like they were carved from jade, reflecting a faint light in the water.
Even the most ignorant person will understand that this fish is no ordinary fish when looking at its appearance!
"This is...Dad...look quickly...look..."
Liu Peng's eyes widened and he stammered.
This appearance made Liu Shouyi frown slightly. His son was not very talented in martial arts, and he was not very shrewd. But he had been a fish market manager for several years, so why was he still so restless?
Liu Shouyi lowered his head and looked into the fish basket brought by Liu Peng, and was immediately startled. The emerald carp that looked like a work of art in the fish basket came into view, which made him a little unbelievable. The shock on his face could not be concealed, and he blurted out: "Is this...an emerald carp?"
The emerald carp feeds on medicinal herbs at the bottom of the water that are difficult for ordinary people to reach. Its meat contains powerful medicinal effects, which can detoxify hundreds of poisons and treat hidden wounds. It can be called the finest treasure fish species! Let people ask for it but not get it!
But today this young man came directly to the door with an emerald carp?
"Dad, with this jade carp... your old injuries will definitely get better!" Liu Peng said excitedly.
Liu Shouyi was seriously injured once. Although he saved his life, it left a legacy of disaster. He has been troubled for so many years. Even if this jade carp cannot make Liu Shouyi recover, it can at least make him better!
"Ahao, how much do you want to sell this jade carp? As long as I give you the starting price..." After the excitement, Liu Peng calmed down a little and looked at Su Hao with burning eyes. For him, even if it costs hundreds of taels of silver, , I have spent all my savings over the years to buy this jade carp!
