Mingguan Town is located outside Pinjiang City. The old fisherman who punted the boat went up the river and finally arrived at the shore after half an hour.
Not far away, you can already see dozens of large and small long boats piled up, and a group of people watching the excitement gathered on the shore. The noise can be faintly heard on the river.
"Hey! The old man is getting older, so he came a little slower. Don't blame me, sir. I hope I can still make it in time." The old fisherman wiped the sweat from his dark face and said with some difficulty.
In fact, although the other party was old, he had excellent punting skills. He came all the way and was not too slow. The main reason was that he was not very close.
"It doesn't matter." Su Xing said calmly.
When the boat docked, Su Xing took Lin Xixi out of the boat, and the old fisherman followed carefully.
The crowd gathered in circles on the shore, and there was constant discussion.
"Liu Dayu is really lucky. He caught two Holuo fish in one net today, and one of them is a three-body fish."
"The last time I caught both ends of the net, I remember it was in the twelfth lunar month of last year."
"Not only do you have good luck in fishing, but you also have good sales. Look at the Chen family's posture, guarding here and not letting others buy it. I guess they are going to get everything done. Now Liu Dayu is prosperous!"
The old fisherman who was punting the boat for Su Xing walked up to the two of them at some point, pushed the crowd, and yelled:
"Let's go! Let's go! If you don't bid, what are you doing here watching? You're occupying the latrine and not shitting."
The crowd looked back and suddenly started shouting:
"Hey! Isn't this Old Li Tou? Why are you here to join in the fun?"
"Old Li Tou, why didn't you just have a grandson two days ago? You are finally willing to spend money to buy some fish soup to feed your grandson. It's a pity that he might be late."
The old man blushed:
"If you are asking for help, get out of the way!"
Although people kept teasing him, they still gave Lao Li some face and made way for a spacious passage.
After all, they also saw that the two people following him had extraordinary demeanor and were obviously the real owners of the transaction.
Most of the people gathered here were fishermen who came to watch the fun, and they were all members of the Xinjiang Society. If they delayed others from doing serious business, their reputation would be bad all over the river.
After the crowd gave way, Su Xing saw several figures inside. A middle-aged man in a short shirt, with a happy face and muddy feet, was standing barefoot in the middle of the crowd.
On the big green net next to them, two strange horo fish were flapping their bodies from time to time. The color of their scales was no different from that of ordinary fish, except that their bellies looked quite big at first glance.
If you look closely, you can see where the belly is. It is obvious that the two fish bodies are growing next to each other, but they share the same fish head.
There is another one, which is thicker. It is a three-body horofish.
This net was really lucky. There were still many fish and shells flapping under the net, but everyone's attention was attracted by the two Horo fish.
There were several people surrounding him. Different from the shabby blouses worn by the fishermen around him, he was wearing an exquisite satin gown. Even though it was more than May and the weather was getting hotter, every button on the collar was buttoned tightly.
His brows were slightly furrowed, and he seemed to be scanning every fisherman around him with an unkind look on his face.
Lao Li was the first to squeeze in. When he saw the harvest of this net, he was amazed, but he did not forget Su Xing's instructions and asked:
"Liu Dayu, you are very lucky. There are two holuos and a three-headed one. I'm afraid you won't have to go fishing in the second half of the year."
Liu Dayu seemed to be a honest and honest man. Hearing this, he touched his head and said with a smile:
"Good luck! Good luck!"
"Okay, Uncle Li is here to bring business to you today. If you see these two distinguished guests, you can choose the best fish body and we will take it away directly."
As soon as Lao Li spoke, Liu Dayu's face hesitated. Several men wearing silk satins also attracted their attention and gathered around him.
Liu Dayu thought for a while, pointed at the two Ho Luos, and said:
"This fish is almost gone."
"Isn't there another one? The three-body one should be the best." Old Li Tou looked at the three-body one with great interest. Unexpectedly, Liu Dayu directly refused:
"This end...this end is rounded."
Hearing this, the faces of the men in brocade clothes next to them softened slightly.
"Bao Yuan?" Lao Litou's expression changed and he gestured. After Liu Dayu nodded, he asked a few more questions in a low voice before walking to Su Xing's side and explaining the situation in a soft voice.
It turns out that holu fish are rare in number and very difficult to catch, and there is a limit of five fish per day. Therefore, there are certain rules when buying Holuo fish.
In order to prevent big players from taking advantage of it as soon as it comes out, you can only buy Holuo fish on site. One person can only bid once, and can only buy "one suit" at most.
Hollow fish usually has two bodies and one body, and one body refers to a complete body, and it is expensive. Among them, the fish head is quite large, and the complete fish head can be regarded as a whole body.
But if there are rules, there will definitely be people who take advantage of them. This is the case with Bao Yuan. Since one person can only buy one, why not just find a few more households?
Old Li Tou had just inquired with Liu Dayu that these people were servants of Chen Yuan's family in Mingguan Town. Now he was staring at these three people, He Luo, and was calling people back to ask several families to "collect the bill." Bao Yuan, no one else is allowed to buy it for the time being.
After listening to Old Li Tou's explanation, Su Xing nodded, but instead gained a deeper understanding of this Xinjiang Association.
The servants of the Chen family are all dressed in brocade and silk fabrics, so they obviously have a lot of money. However, you still have to abide by the rules on the surface and gather a few people from the family to wrap up the three-body Ho Luo.
Obviously, the Xinjiang Society organized by this group of poor fishermen is not that simple.
However, looking at Lao Li's troubled face, Su Xing understood that the people do not fight against the rich. These fishermen would not be willing to directly break the unspoken rules everyone abides by and directly confront the Chen family.
Unless you reveal your identity as a practitioner.
However, Su Xing was not in a hurry. He nodded to Lao Litou to indicate that he understood. Then he walked to the net and carefully looked at the two ends.
Su Xing wore a mask and had an ordinary face, but he was dressed in fine clothes and had a calm temperament. Liu Dayu suddenly became a little cautious. The servants of Mr. Chen's wife's family also looked a little surprised, but they did not dare to stop Su Xing from approaching the fishing net.
Fusang's spiritual energy surged, and his spiritual consciousness secretly investigated. This three-body Holuo fish is really extraordinary. The spiritual energy was so rich that it lasted more than a lifetime, and his eyes were agile. When the spiritual energy emerged from Su Xing's body, he actually jumped towards Su Xing like he was eager.
'The three-body Ho Luo has the potential to transform into a demon. It seems that according to Old Li Tou, Pinjiang has almost never caught Sishenheluo, and this is the reason. '
As his eyes were searching, something suddenly jumped in the net, attracting Su Xing's attention. While he was studying carefully, the servants next to him became a little impatient and said:
"Young Master, please watch and see which part of the head and body you want. The fish killer is coming soon, so don't miss it."
Hola fish are usually slaughtered by specialized fish butchers.
Su Xing calmly withdrew his gaze and ignored the servants of the Chen family. Instead, he looked at Liu Dayu in front of him and asked:
"What parts of the head and body are left?"
"Mr....Gongzi." Liu Dayu imitated Old Li Tou's call and said with a slight stutter:
"There's only one fish left."
The Chen family only focused on the three-body Ho Luo, but they did not forcefully occupy the two-body Ho Luo. At present, a lot of it has been divided up by the crowd of onlookers.
"The back of the fish?" Su Xing looked at the area Liu Dayu had marked. There was only a small piece of the back, not much meat.
And as the saying goes, one would rather give up a cow than a carp head. The Ho Luo fish back was originally the remaining part of the selection, and the taste was average.
Several servants nearby were waiting impatiently for Su Xing to bid, because according to the rules, if you bid once, you cannot buy again.
Su Xing raised his finger and pointed at the three-body He Luo, and the servants' hearts suddenly rose to their throats.
Are there really people who don’t know whether to live or die?
The next second, they gradually felt relieved.
Su Xing's fingers didn't stop, he traced the three bodies of He Luo, and said:
"I want this."
