Chapter 1584
Those fish weighed about tens of catties, because Zecheng is located in the waters around Daze Lake, and the price of fish is not expensive.

The fresh fish in the morning market depends on the appearance and type of the fish. The most expensive herring is only fifteen Wen a catty, and the general fish is five to ten Wen a catty.

And the fish in the afternoon is not fresh anymore!

Even if you don't die from lack of itching, you are still half dead. At this time, street vendors are willing to sell it for three pennies per catty.

Alang sold ordinary fish, but Yeran was willing to buy it for fifteen Wen a catty, and half a tael of silver for thirty catties of fish.

Holding the piece of silver, Alang was so excited that he didn't know what to say. He chased him all the way to the street, and after seeing the night in the carriage, he returned to his stall, ready to pack up and go home.

"Fish harvest, fish harvest!"

Night was about to fall, and it was getting dark in the shed of the fish market. A few ruffians entered the market with sticks.

"Your fish is dead, and it's worth a penny!"

"Give me five cents for these dead shrimps of yours, and take this pot away!"

"And you, and you, this fish is so small, a pot of Sanwen..."

Those ruffian-looking men were carrying an oversized wooden bucket. Rather than collecting fish that the fishmongers could not sell, they were talking about robbery. Pour in bucket.

"Don't sell it, don't sell it, I'll take it back for a pot of three coins and keep it for myself to eat."

"Yeah, so many shrimps are only five cents, so I won't sell them anymore..."

The leader took a stick and knocked on the wooden barrel. He grinned and said, "It's up to you. You signed the agreement at the beginning of the month, so it's reasonable to go to the government."

Those people didn't care about their life or death, and just robbed them because they had sticks in their hands.

Give them a few pennies to buy the rest of the fish, but some vendors would naturally refuse if the fish were still alive, and the fish would be taken away by people, who would pounce on them to snatch them.

But those people took sticks and threw them at the fishmonger, and the market was full of crying and fighting.

Lin Lang collected the remaining empty wooden barrels and wanted to run away, but was stopped by two ruffians: "Boy, if you can run away, the monk can't run away from the temple, where are the fish?"

"Brother, look, my bucket is empty, I'm sold out."

These people are simply robbers. At the beginning, they lied to sign the agreement, saying that the price of fish was half that of the morning market. Everyone thought that if they collected the dead fish that could not be sold and dried it in the sun, at least they could save their capital.

In the first few days, they collected fish at half the price in the morning market, but in the end they gave less and less fish. In the past two days, they only gave two or three coppers.

Before it gets dark, send people to guard the entrance and exit of the fish market. If you want to escape early, it will be a good meal if you get blocked.

This is not harvesting fish, it is simply grabbing fish.

The fishmongers in the fish market regretted being cheated into signing the agreement to death, but they couldn't read, thinking that the fish collector would follow the verbal promise, so they signed the agreement in a daze.

Looking at the wooden bucket that Lin Lang was carrying, it was indeed empty.

The leader of the ruffian raised the stick in his hand, with a fierce look on his face: "We agreed to sell the rest of the fish to us. If you don't have any left, then it's a breach of contract. Take out the money for selling the fish."

Lin Lang was so angry that it was Ran's sister who took pity on him and bought the fish.

The money he earned today was used to buy rice and noodles for his mother and sister Zhenzhen to have a full meal.

Unexpectedly, these people can't get the leftover fish, and they blatantly snatch it?
Lin Lang learned how to support his family at a young age, so he is not easy to be bullied. He boldly said: "You are robbing, and the rabbit bites in a hurry. I will sue you at the county government."
