He forced me to sever ties with my family and sleep on a dilapidated boat, then turned around and be

He Zhenzhen was a little unhappy.

"How am I loud? My voice has always been sweet and gentle, very pleasing to people. Niu Bayi, you really don't know how to talk sometimes."

Even when she has a serious expression, she's still so cute.

Niu Bayi laughed heartily and couldn't resist secretly kissing her cherry-like lips.

"Okay, okay, my wife doesn't have a loud voice at all. Could you try shouting in your sweet, gentle, and endearing voice?"

He Zhenzhen wasn't stupid; she knew what Niu Bayi wanted her to call, and readily nodded.

"Okay, you're the boss, so I, as the boss's wife, have to do what you tell me to do."

Then, they charged proudly and imposingly onto the bow of the ship.

With one foot on the side of the boat, she cupped her two little hands around her cherry-like mouth, forming a trumpet shape.

"Fish for sale! Fish for sale! Giant octopus for sale! Dozens of giant octopuses, each weighing dozens of kilograms! Anyone want to buy giant octopus? Anyone want to buy giant octopus?"

This voice was soaring, a true soprano, reaching the heavens.

The people standing on the dock were so frightened that they covered their ears and quickly backed away.

Upon seeing this, He Zhenzhen felt somewhat depressed.

She turned her head and said, looking aggrieved, "Bayi, why are they covering their ears? Hey, why are you covering your ears too?"

This made her even more depressed.

Niu Bayi raised his hands, covered his ears, and hurriedly backed away.

They even had to crawl into the ship's cabin.

Seeing that He Zhenzhen's expression was off, Niu Bayi quickly put down his hands, ran over, and hugged her without saying a word.

"My wife is amazing. Although her voice isn't very loud, it's incredibly clear and resonant, like a lark singing in the forest."

He Zhenzhen chuckled.

"Which lark can sing as loudly as I can?"

Niu Bayi said, "Of course it's not just one lark, it's a hundred larks singing at the same time."

"screw you!"

He Zhenzhen immediately raised her fist and punched him on the shoulder.

"A hundred larks chirping—how loud would that be? And you're just finding ways to say I have a loud voice!"

Just as Niu Bayi was about to explain, shouts came from the dock.

"Who...who has dozens of octopuses weighing several kilograms? Are you kidding me? Do you know how hard it is to catch octopuses of that size? Don't make things up!"

A middle-aged man ran over, his face showing utter disbelief mixed with a glimmer of hope.

He Zhenzhen asked, "Are you a fish buyer?"

The man immediately nodded: "That's right, I'll buy fish."

Niu Bayi smiled and nodded at him.

"You're working hard collecting fish in the middle of the day."

The middle-aged man said with a wry smile, "There's nothing I can do. I'm just a small-time boss. A lot of fishing boats come back this morning, but it's not my turn to collect them. The big bosses have taken them all, so I can only wait here."

"Let's see if any fishing boats return during the day; we can catch some then."

"Where's the octopus you caught? It's a 10-kilogram octopus, definitely a hot commodity! If you catch it, I'm willing to pay a high price for it."

Niu Bayi knew the market price; he estimated that ordinary octopus was only seven or eight cents a pound.

The larger octopuses all climbed upwards together.

He asked, "How much are you going to charge me?"

The shopkeeper said, "If you really have big octopuses, let alone dozens of pounds, even those weighing over ten pounds, I'll buy them from you for 1.5 yuan per pound. I'll buy as many as you have, just in case you don't have any. Don't make fun of me."

He kept looking up at the deck, his face still full of disbelief, but also clinging to a sliver of hope.

After all, only someone with a mental disability would shout like that.

This young couple seems perfectly normal.

Moreover, it did indeed come from the other side of the sea, and the character "县" (county) was painted on the bow of the ship.

Those qualified to sell fish at the county town's docks all possessed some financial strength.

Then, the boss noticed a large plastic bucket placed against the side of the ship on one side of the deck.

Several large fish could be vaguely seen inside.

His eyes lit up immediately.

"Grouper? Tiger grouper, rat grouper, leopard grouper, why are there so many groupers? This whole bucket of grouper is worth a lot of money. Are they for sale?"

He Zhenzhen immediately shook her head.

"The grouper isn't for sale; take it home and eat it."

The shop owner asked, looking utterly dejected, "Really? So many valuable groupers, and you're not going to sell them, but take them home to eat? What kind of kid is so extravagant? That's too wasteful!"

"If my parents find out, won't they beat me to death?"

Niu Bayi was getting impatient.

"Anyway, we're not selling grouper, but we are selling giant octopus. If you want it, come aboard and take a look. If not, move aside and let me see if anyone else wants to buy it."

Upon hearing this, the shop owner believed it even more.

After all, that plastic bucket of grouper alone would be worth several hundred yuan.

If they can even hit this, then a giant octopus weighing dozens of kilograms should be no problem for them.

He quickly jumped onto the boat.

"Buy, buy, buy! If it's available, I'll definitely buy it! My surname is Qian, you can call me Qian Dagui."

Niu Bayi, of course, wouldn't be so impolite, so he said with a grin, "Okay, Boss Qian, come and take a look."

Then, he walked to the fish hold, squatted down, picked up the cover handle, and opened it.

At this moment, several people on the dock were shouting with a hint of amusement.

"You can catch dozens of octopuses weighing several tens of kilograms? That's practically a fantasy!"

"Old Qian, the bigger the octopus, the harder it is to catch. Even trawl nets can't catch them. The best I've ever seen is bring back four or five octopuses weighing over ten kilograms each, which shocked the entire dock!"

"Unless you dive down to the bottom of the sea to catch it, but an octopus this big would be quite difficult to catch, even if you found it on the seabed, and you might even get strangled!"

……

Qian Dagui felt uneasy as he listened to these words, but he still couldn't wait to look into the fish hold with the lid lifted.

Suddenly, his eyes widened!

My eyeballs practically jumped dozens of meters away.

He suddenly turned his head and shouted excitedly, "You're wrong! Wrong! A whole hold full of octopuses, and they're all alive! Huge ones! They really weigh dozens of kilograms! My God, that's terrifying!"

"I've been collecting fish for over thirty years, and this is the first time I've ever seen such a big octopus, and also the first time I've seen so many of such big octopuses! It's terrifying! Hahaha, I, Qian Dagui, have struck gold!"

"No wonder the fortune teller told me I would make a fortune this year, so this is the reason."

"I'll take all of these giant octopuses, young man, okay?"

He was full of doubt just a moment ago, but now he is full of piety.

Looking at Niu Bayi, I was afraid that people wouldn't be willing to sell these giant octopuses to him.

At the dock, the group of people couldn't help but jump onto Niu Bayi's fishing boat to take a look.

He glanced at the fish hold and was immediately terrified, his face turning deathly pale, and he kept backing away.

"My goodness, this octopus is huge! It's practically a monster!"

"It's almost out! It's almost out! Is it going to kill me?!"

Indeed, this scene is quite frightening.

Inside the fish hold, thanks to the spatial seawater that Niu Bayi had poured into it, the giant octopus was in good condition.

They're all lively and energetic!

As soon as it saw the fish hold open, it immediately stretched out its tentacles, trying to climb up.

The speed was quite fast, which startled Qian Dagui so much that he quickly took a few steps back.

However, he retired a little too late.

A large octopus that had climbed up first suddenly stretched out its long tentacles.

It suddenly wrapped around his leg and pulled desperately.

Plop!

Qian Dagui fell hard on the deck, kicking his legs in fright.
