I created an extraordinary era

Chapter 16: Getting Rich by Catching Fish [Please Collect and Read]

After a good rest, Xia Yuan started the next round of fishing in the water.

I have to say, the feeling of catching fish is very relaxing.

One after another they were caught, one after another they were crushed to death. But he didn't crush them on purpose.

He was immersed in it the whole morning, just like a child who gets a new toy and will be happy for a long time. Xia Yuan is in this state now.

At one o'clock, my stomach started to growl and I had to get out of the water.

This time when he came out of the water, he had two fish in his hands. It took a lot of effort to catch two at once.

Well, the hardships of life cannot be explained to outsiders.

A black carp and a grass carp, both quite big, must weigh about eight kilograms in total.

I still remember when I was a child, my father caught a black fish weighing more than 20 kilograms with a fork, and the whole family ate it for many days.

The most abundant fish in their waters are crucian carp, black carp, grass carp and bighead carp.

Others are less common, but they do exist. I heard that someone caught an adult sturgeon and sold it for a lot of money, but that was more than ten years ago.

This kind of fish used to be quite common in Hanzhou, but later it became less and less common, and it is almost impossible to see it in the wild.

Nowadays, there are fewer people fishing in Panlong Town, and many fish are transported from nearby. In fact, the money earned from fishing is not as much as that from working.

In winter, almost no one goes fishing. The fish are usually at the bottom of the water, making fishing much more difficult. Instead of doing this thankless task, it is better to buy artificially bred ones. Anyway, not many people care whether they are artificially bred or wild.

With the fish in his hands, Xia Yuan went straight home. He was worried that he would crush the fish to death by squeezing them too hard, so he was not in a hurry on the way back. After all, he was going to eat these two fish.

Fish is not cheap in the town. The two fish in Xia Yuan's hand can be sold for about 100 to yuan in the market.

He knew the prices of most fish when he was buying vegetables during this period. A pound of black carp can be sold for 20 yuan, while grass carp is a little less, about 6 yuan per pound.

Grass carp and crucian carp are the two most common fish that people eat. They are cheap, nutritious, and taste good.

Crucian carp soup is a very nutritious food, and Xia Yuan has been drinking a lot of it recently.

In the past, he could have eaten fish for the whole day for the past two days, but now it is not enough for one meal. In addition to these two fish, he also cooked some pork, beef and vegetables.

This meal cost nearly two hundred yuan, and three meals a day would cost at least five or six hundred yuan.

I took a look at the 14396 yuan deposit on my phone and suddenly felt that the fish I caught didn’t taste good anymore.

After dinner, Xia Yuan remembered to open the panel to see his morning gains. He had hardly rested in the past four hours, so he must have gained a lot.

Origin point: 0.09
Sure enough, before, in the five hours in the morning, a total of 0.03 was added, but today, in just four hours, 0.05 was added.

As physical energy consumption increases, the speed of obtaining source points also increases a lot.

"It seems like the price can go up by at least 0.1 a day now."

If I could keep going like this, I would become stronger very quickly, but there is still the same problem: lack of money.

"and many more."

Xia Yuan's eyes lit up and he suddenly thought of a good idea: catching fish.

Dozens of fish were thrown away in the morning. If he needed a tool to catch fish, with his current skills, he could catch at least hundreds of fish in a day, not to mention too many.

Apart from the part they eat themselves, the rest is sold. Even the cheapest fish can be sold for more than five dollars in town.

In this way, at the end of the day, I can easily sell more than a thousand yuan. And with fish as food, I spend less money on other ingredients, so I can save a lot of money every day.

Just do it when you think of it. After resting for a while, Xia Yuan set off directly for his hometown. When passing by the town, he bought three fish baskets.

Along the way, he was in high spirits and was almost thinking about the good days in the future.

After arriving at the place, Xia Yuan took a fish basket and went into the water directly, and left the rest on the ground. He was not afraid of being stolen. He had not seen any in the past few days, and who would steal fish baskets?

After getting into the water, I found the scent of the fish. Since the perception was locked, catching fish was much easier, so I prepared to catch fish as I did in the morning.

It was very easy to catch the first one. It took only a few minutes to catch another one. It was a grass carp, and it was quite heavy.

However, after he put the fish into the fish basket, he could no longer fold it, and this caused a problem.

Just when he was about to catch the second fish, the fish basket in his left hand created a strong resistance, causing him to lose his grip. He wanted to chase it, but the same problem occurred as soon as he increased his speed.

If this goes on, I'm afraid we won't be able to catch a single fish.

In desperation, they could only fix the fish basket on the shore and catch fish with their bare hands, but this also caused a lot of trouble.

First of all, it is easy to lose control of the strength when catching a fish with one hand, and it is easy to crush the fish to death. Secondly, some larger fish are also difficult to catch with one hand.

In the morning, it often takes a long time to catch a fish with one hand, and the fish cannot be very big.

After trying a few times, he started catching a fish that swam to the shore and put it into the fish basket, then went down to catch another one, and repeated this process over and over again.

In this way, if you dive a little further, it will take more time to run back to release the fish, and the efficiency of catching fish will be greatly reduced.

More than an hour later, Xia Yuan, who was lying on the shore to rest, looked at the fish in the fish basket and found that there were only a little over ten fish.

If this continued, he would only be able to catch about fifty fish a day at most, which was a big difference from the more than one hundred he had expected.

When he went down again later, he placed the remaining two fish baskets at intervals so that there would not be only one place to put the fish.

In this way, the efficiency was indeed improved a little, and we caught nearly 20 fish in total this time.

It was almost 6 o'clock, and before it got completely dark, Xia Yuan went down again. This time he only caught four fish in total.

After it was completely dark, the underwater vision was too poor. Although I could lock onto the target, I couldn't keep up with the speed without the help of my eyes.

Besides, I was hungry by this time and my physical strength was not as good as it was at its peak, so I simply gave up the idea of ​​continuing to catch it.

He only caught about 30 fish in the afternoon. Although it was still a big drop from his previous expectations, it was enough for him to make money.

Among them, there are three black carps, and most of the others are grass carp and crucian carp. In addition, there are a few that are not sure.

However, these fish are not big. The largest one is a black carp, which weighs about five or six kilograms, and the heaviest of the others is probably only three or four kilograms.

He kept three crucian carps and two grass carps for dinner and planned to sell the rest.

Black fish is rather troublesome to make, and I am too lazy to spend time on it.

Taking the fish, Xia Yuan returned to the town. He quickened his pace because he was afraid that the fish would die too quickly after leaving the water.

Soon he arrived at the entrance of West Street, where there was a fishmonger who had been in business for more than ten years.

He planned to pack all the fish and sell them to the fishmonger, even though the price would be much lower. But there was no other way. He couldn't possibly set up a stall to sell fish just for a hundred or two hundred yuan.

"Boss, are you buying wild fish?"
