Allure of a Country Maiden
Chapter 845
Xiaoer said to Yang Mei: "Yang Mei, you don't have to worry about me, you can work harder!"
Yang Mei quickly waved her hand: "No, anyway, I have been fishing all morning and not a single fish has been hooked. I will help the young lady next to her."
Xiao'er didn't say anything after hearing this. It would be faster for two people to fish together. She put down her fishing rod again and started fishing.
From the first eight or nine seconds before catching a big fish, to the next five or six seconds, half a stick of incense time passed. Xiaoer caught more than a hundred large and small fish. The soldiers found a big wooden barrel to put them in. , not even one barrel can be filled.
Yangmei was very happy beside her.
Of course fishing requires silence, so she could only smile.
The soldiers who were competing for fishing turned pale when they saw this! Is this fishing speed achievable by an individual?
Do all the big fish in the river like beautiful women? Why are you so crazy about taking the bait from Princess Rui? This fishing speed is really amazing! These big fish were clearly caught by the princess!
Until this moment, the soldiers finally believed that what Xiaoer just said was not bragging! She fishes really fast! They could literally go bankrupt! Fifty coins is really too much! This is not a small bet, this is a big bet!
Seeing that everyone was stunned by her so quickly, Xiaoer said with a smile: "Is there still half a stick of incense left? If you don't work harder, aren't you afraid that you won't even have enough money to marry a wife?"
Everyone came back to their senses and took a look at their wooden barrels. There were only one or two small fish swimming back and forth. Their faces were all red!
What else is this compared to? Even if the fish in the river swims over at the speed of a thousand-mile horse and takes the bait, they will definitely lose!
However, if they don’t fish, they will lose even more miserably. Resigned to their fate, they start to stare at their fishing rods again, but what else are they thinking about there?
Fishing requires patience and concentration. After that, almost everyone’s eyes fell on Xiaoer, and not a few fish were caught at all.
After the time of burning incense, Xiaoer caught a lot of big fish. The wooden barrels on the boat couldn't fit in them, so they had to throw them on the deck.
One by one, big fish were jumping alive on the deck, and the heartbeats of several soldiers were just like these jumping fish, and they were all messed up!
When Shangguan Xuanyi took Yang Liu back to the boat, what they saw was a large boat of lively fish and soldiers with expressions of shock and despair on their faces.
But before Shangguan Xuanyi had time to ask what was going on, Xiaoer happily ran towards Shangguan Xuanyi and Yang Liu after seeing them return.
Shangguan Xuanyi instinctively stretched out his hands to catch Xiaoer's running body, but he didn't expect Xiaoer to directly open his hands and throw himself into Yangliu's arms, hugging Yangliu tightly: "Yangliu, you finally woke up!"
"Princess!" Yang Liu's eyes were also red. She was so desperate at the time, thinking that she would just shed all the blood and die! I didn’t expect to see the princess again, so great!
Yang Mei's eyes turned red when she looked at Yang Liu. She also wanted to hug Yang Liu, but Xiaoer hugged her, so she could only watch from the side.
Shangguan Xuanyi's face turned dark! When he jumped on board that night, why didn't she think she was so enthusiastic? Seeing her expression, she was so happy that her eyebrows flew up!
The most important thing is that when he opened his hands, this girl didn't jump into his arms, but hugged Yangliu. This made him mad!
"Cough! Cough!" He coughed hard: "What's going on with these fish? If I leave for a day, this boat will become a fishing boat?"
When the soldiers saw Shangguan Xuanyi's expression, they didn't dare to breathe: King Rui was angry!
After hearing this, Xiaoer let go of Yangliu, walked to Shangguan Xuanyi, hugged his arm and shook him, with an expression like a child who got first place in the exam and was waiting for praise from an adult: "Shangguan Brother, I caught all these fish! Am I good, right?"
Shangguan Xuanyi's expression softened as his arm was held by Xiaoer, and he nodded: "It's great, why are you just catching so many fish?"
The soldiers were dumbfounded. It was so easy for the rain to pass and the sky to clear up? Princess Rui is so good at coaxing people!
"They and I are competing in fishing. If we win, the losers will reward the winner with fifty cents and a fish." Xiaoer pointed at the soldiers whose faces looked like they had eaten dirt.
Shangguan Xuanyi glanced at them, competing with this girl? It’s just looking for abuse!
He lowered his head and pinched Xiaoer's little nose: "Don't bully the soldiers! If you cheat them like this, no matter how much military pay they get, they won't be able to lose!"
When the soldiers heard this, they were so moved that they almost shed tears. They all nodded. If they knew that the princess fished as fast as picking up dead fish, they would never compete with her!
General Yang also regrets it! If I had known earlier, it would have been five cents per piece, fifty cents? This is really a loss to the point of bankruptcy!
"I didn't bully them! Originally, they bet for a fish for one tael of silver, but I said it was five cents a fish, and I already took good care of them! They agreed and asked for fifty cents a piece!"
The soldiers blushed after hearing this. Just now they thought five cents a fish was not exciting enough, but now they realized that if it were really one tael of silver a fish, they would just jump into the river and commit suicide, and they would not have to live anymore!
Shangguan Xuanyi smiled after hearing this: "What are you going to do with so many fish?"
Xiaoer glanced at the shore: "The big fish will be distributed to the people on the shore, and the small ones will be thrown back into the river!"
Some of the fish Xiaoer caught were very large. These fish are usually difficult for fishermen to catch. It would be a waste to put them all back into the river. It was just right to give them to the people on the shore.
General Yang and several people were counting fish. Now that he had finally finished counting, he stood up and said to Xiaoer: "Young madam, we caught a total of 1,505 fish!"
"Only more than 1,500! With so few, why are my arms so tired?" Xiaoer shook her arms.
There are more than 1,500 but so few! If she wasn't a princess, the soldiers would have wanted to beat her up after hearing what she said! This is really too rude!
"Hey, fifty cents a piece and more than fifteen hundred cents didn't win much money! Let me calculate how much it is. It's only seventy-five taels and twenty-five cents! Each person only lost eighteen taels or eight cents. If I had known earlier, it would have been just one tael of silver and one fish!" Xiaoer's tone was full of disappointment.
The four soldiers felt like crying after hearing this!
Eighteen taels and eight cents, it has been their army for several months! Didn’t you lose all the money you spent on marrying your wife?
A bride price of ten taels of silver is very respectable in the village!
Both wives can take these eighteen taels home.
"Do it again?" Xiao'er
"No, not coming!" General Yang waved his hand quickly.
The other soldiers shook their heads.
How dare you come again! They don't want to lose four wives!
Seeing this, Xiaoer sighed: "What a pity. Then give the money to Yangmei! Divide the money between Yangmei and Yangmei! Keep it for dowry."
The soldiers said they were heartbroken~
