Days after Breaking up with My Ex

After work, Old Gao came to my place again.

I asked, "Why didn't you go to Wang Mengmeng's today?"

"Put it away as you see fit, put it away as you see fit." Old Gao said with a smile.

We had two small drinks for dinner and went to bed early.

But in the middle of the night, Old Gao suddenly received a call from old meng.

"Come to the pond, something's wrong!"

Old Gao and I immediately frowned. What could happen to the pond in the middle of the night? But since old meng had said something, it was no joke. Old Gao and I didn't say anything, so we put on our clothes and set off for the pond.

I checked the time on my cell phone. It was only three o' clock in the morning. Why did old meng call us over so urgently?

After three in the morning, it was still dark. There was no one on the street, not even a ghost. The hot temperature had completely disappeared. It was still a little chilly in his short sleeves.

Everything was shrouded in great silence.

There was no car on the road, and Old Gao quickly took me into the pond.

Old meng waved his flashlight at us. Old Gao and I got out of the car and walked quickly towards old meng.

"What happened?" Old Gao and I asked breathlessly.

Old meng said, "Someone drugged the pond!"

Old Gao and I were both shocked when we heard what old meng said. If the pond was drugged, the fish would be finished! Then old meng told us how he discovered that the pond had been drugged.

Old meng usually ran around with his mouth full of dirty jokes and drank too much. His first impression was not very reliable. He seemed to be just a slovenly employee. But that's not the case. He's very responsible. He even dared to scold Old Gao for what he did wrong, which I admire very much.

Old meng spent most of his time in the pond and went out to finish shooting. But as long as he was in the pond, then the pond did not need me and old meng to worry about it. I really learned a lot from him.

If I had been so serious when I was running business with my cousin, I might have avoided the difficulty.

If it weren't for the love he had never had with the widow, I don't think old meng would have been in such a state of retreat.

During the day, there was basically no problem, and at night, the pond was empty. But when old meng was in the pond, he would get up every night and walk around the pond to see if there were any accidents. However, this was a wild area, and very few people would come to steal or fish, but old meng still maintained this habit and never changed.

That night, old meng got up at irregular intervals to check on him. He was walking around the pond with his flashlight, which he had not known for many years. However, this day, he unexpectedly found a person!

Coming to the pond in the middle of the night was definitely not a good thing.

When the light came, the man was also in a panic and ran away. Old meng shouted, "Stop!"

Obviously, the man wouldn't listen to him and ran away in a hurry. Old meng said that the man looked like a young man and ran very fast, but it was dark at that time. Old meng couldn't see the man's face at all. Old meng was thin in his middle age and couldn't catch up with him at all.

Instead of pursuing the man, he looked at the pond and saw a bottle of medicine on the shore. Old meng knew it must be the medicine fish! Fortunately, old meng found out in time, and the medicine was not finished, so he immediately called Old Gao.

Old meng looked at the water with his flashlight and said to us, "Fortunately, only one pool was drugged. The other fish ponds are fine."

Old Gao and I followed the light, and by this time, we could already faintly see the fish scurrying under the water, obviously stimulated by the medicine, but it was still a short time, the fish had not died.

"Damn!" Old Gao immediately scolded, "Which bastard poisoned you?"

"We didn't provoke anyone."

I couldn't help but wonder who poisoned the pond. Old Gao had fought a lot in the past, but that was a long time ago. No one would retaliate now.

Secretly fishing electric fish is understandable, but medicinal fish, this is too much!

"You haven't been fighting with anyone lately, have you, Old Gao?" I asked casually.

"No." Old Gao frowned.

"Could someone from the other pond nearby poison us?" I guessed.

Not far from us, there are also a few ponds, everyone naturally has a competitive relationship, but competition belongs to competition, can't use such a dirty and dirty means. But this is a matter of interest, and there is a possibility.

"No way. We don't mess around."

I was just guessing. Old Gao didn't see the other person's face clearly, and we didn't know who it was.

But our pond business has been doing pretty well recently, and it's also a filming spot in the studio, so it's possible that some people are jealous of us.

At this time, old meng lit a cigarette and took a puff. He frowned and said to us, "I think this person should be very familiar with our pond. At least he came here a few times."

As the first discoverer, we should pay attention to old meng's point of view.

Familiar with our pond?

There were a lot of people familiar with our pond. The staff of our pond, a group of people who often came to the pond to fish, and even the people from Lin Ya studio were familiar with the pond.

But among these people, it seems that only Wang Bing and Old Gao had a conflict once, but it can't be Wang Bing. At that time, he had apologized to us, and under my suggestion, he got back his girlfriend. It's impossible for him.

Then who could it be?

I can't guess!

"Okay, no matter who it is, save these fish first." Old meng said, "I see. The dosage is not very high. Let's fish first and put it in a clean pool. Or we can pull the restaurant directly. Try to minimize the damage."

Old Gao shook his head and said, "No. Someone must have come in a while after daybreak, and the pond could not be stopped from being drugged. Regardless of whether there's a problem with the fish, the restaurant is absolutely not allowed to deliver it."

"That's fine. Let's sell it in bulk. The fish isn't dead yet. It's absolutely fine to eat it." Old meng was also an old fisherman and knew more about fish than we did.

Old Gao nodded.

Old meng added, "Okay, wait a while. It's getting dark. Let's start fishing."

So, the three of us started to turn green. At four or five o' clock, it was already dawn and we could see the water clearly. Old meng and I started rowing separately and fishing in this pond.

A lot of fish were dizzy from the medicine, so they scooped up the net and caught it quickly.

Then old meng and I brought the fish to Old Gao, and Old Gao put them in a large basin and changed into fresh water.

However, with the delay of time, more and more fish were tumbling on the surface of the water, especially many small fish were dead!

After so long in the pond, this was the first time I saw countless fish die together. Looking at the dead fish floating on the surface of the water, my heart could not say how uncomfortable it was. After so long in the pond, it was impossible to say that there was no emotion. Although they would eventually be eaten, we raised them day by day.

I really want the man who caught the fish to give him a good beating. What's the use of killing so many fish, or not one of them? Even if you have a problem with our pond, you don't have to mess around with the fish, do you? What's there to be fair and square about?

"No, there are more and more dead fish." I shouted anxiously.

The pond is so big, after all, old meng and I have limited manpower, but in the end, the loss will be great!

"Then what should we do?" Old Gao asked helplessly.

Although it was much easier to fish than usual, we could only lift a few dozen pounds in an hour or two. The rest of the fish that had not been caught in time would still die.

The pond was a dead pit, and the medicine would not flow away. The water in this pond was considered waste, so it must be replaced with new water.

Old Gao and I both looked at old meng, but old meng was so tired that he sweated. He took a puff of smoke and said slowly, "We must pay for it this time! We can only fish as much as we can. It's good that we don't die. We won't be able to sell it if we die."

"Since you can't sell it, just give it away!" I gasped and said.

Old meng and Old Gao looked at me.

I smiled bitterly and said, "Didn't uncle meng say it's okay to eat the fish?"

Old meng nodded. "No problem, no problem, but who will buy dead fish?"

"Yes, you're right." I thought about it, and a bold idea suddenly popped into my head, "Uncle meng also said that the compensation is settled, and the dead fish can't be sold. Then we might as well be more generous and give the fish away."

"How?" Old Gao asked.

"Let's just spread the news. We were going to clean the pond recently, so we had a fish medicine session. Now everyone can fish in the pond, free fish, fish more or less is yours, and the live fish we catch is also sold at a low price. I want to buy a lot of people. Let's take this opportunity to promote the pond so that many people will know about it."

"Will it be too much?" Old meng said worriedly.

Both of us looked at Old Gao. After all, he was the boss and the decision was still in his hands. Old Gao pondered for a moment, then clapped his hands and said decisively, "Okay, just do what Xing Yun said. We'll let them get it for free! I'm going to post an update on my friends' circle. I'm going to post it at a post bar in Pucheng."

I smiled, and Old Gao was quite bold when I said that.

I just don't know if it will work if we do this.

I have no confidence at all.

Next, Old Gao posted on the internet, and we also called some friends. Let wang mengmeng come to the pond to help sell fish.

Ask Hu Zi to take a day off too and come to the pond to help catch fish. This way, plus driver Tian, we have a lot of people.

In the end, I called Lin Ya and asked her to send someone down to the pond to take care of the consultation for today's studio. There would be a lot of people coming, maybe some people needed them.

After that, old meng and I continued to fish!

However, about half an hour after Old Gao's post was posted, someone came to the pond and learned that the free fishing was true. Everyone was very happy and went to the pond alone with a big net and a small net.

An hour later, the pond that was drugged was filled with people!
