The strong fisherman in the courtyard

When Li's mother heard this, she sneered, "If he really dares to do something again, then our family is not made of mud."

After saying this, he glared at Li's father in a domineering manner.

"Yes, my daughter-in-law is right!" Father Li bowed down immediately.

"Don't worry, I'm a little confident about this matter. If he really dares to stretch out his claws, I will chop them off."

"Look at our son, and then look at yourself. You still think you are the father." Mother Li said bluntly.

[Ding, congratulations to the host for fishing successfully. 】

[Successful fishing rewards the number of lottery draws*1, and in view of Yan Fugui's humiliation, a special reward of Big Black Ten*2 and a pair of chickens have been placed in the breeding space.]

When Li Ming heard the voice in his mind, he knew that he had succeeded in fishing this time. However, he did not catch Yan Fugui so ruthlessly, so the reward was not much. But what was important was the number of draws.

Seeing this, Li Ming got up and went back to the house, ready to draw a prize.

"Mom and Dad, I'm going back to my room to sleep first. You guys should get some rest early."

Li Ming said this, went to the sink, washed his hands thoroughly, rubbed his face and then returned to the second bedroom.

. . . . . .

"System, lottery."

Thirty-six cards appeared directly on the light green screen. Although Li Ming had seen it once, he still felt a little dissatisfied.

"Okay, just pick one."

The card turned into green light and disappeared, replaced by a row of subtitles.

[Ding, congratulations to the host for winning 5 small yellow croakers. ]

"Emmmm, it seems that this time, beating up Yan Fugui is just worth a little bit of lottery prize."

"But it's not bad, keep it."

After Li Ming finished speaking, he stuffed the small yellow croaker he was playing with back into the space.

【Host】: Li Ming

[Skills Possessing]: Pistol Mastery (Basic), Fishing (Minor Achievement).

[Number of draws]: 0

[Physique Template]: Li Yuanba [Development Progress 11%]

[System Items]: Colt m1860 revolver*1, a box of 0.44-inch black powder bullets, and small yellow croakers*5.

"My physical fitness has improved, which is good. In the next three years, nothing can be better than having a good body."

After studying the system, Li Ming waved his hand to close the light green screen, chose a comfortable position and prepared to sleep.

Yan family.

Today, Yan Fugui failed to get the benefits he had imagined, but was instead pointed out by Li Ming. Fortunately, he did gain something, and more importantly, his relationship with the Li family did not deteriorate, which was also good.

Thinking of this, Yan Fugui couldn't help but pat his head and muttered to himself, "Fortunately, I didn't conflict with the Li family as I had thought before, otherwise, based on their abilities, I would definitely suffer in the future."

When the third aunt saw Yan Fugui coming back, she sat on the kang in a daze, talking to herself, and no one went up to disturb him for a while.

It was not until Yan Fugui spoke that he stepped forward and asked.

"Old Yan, how about you go to the Li family to do some work today?"

The third aunt naturally knew what Yan Fugui had planned before going to the Li family, and she was somewhat anxious at the moment.

Yan Fugui laughed self-deprecatingly, "It didn't work out, luckily it didn't work out, otherwise the relationship between our family and the Li family would have been completely ruined."

"If things go wrong, our family will have a hard time in the future."

The third aunt sighed, "What will we do if our family runs out of food in the future?"

"Don't worry. Although it didn't work out, I have discussed it with the Li family. We can ask them to help collect some at the market price."

"Market price?" The third aunt's voice rose three degrees. She didn't expect Yan Fugui to come up with this.

Yan Fugui lit a cigarette for himself and repeated what Li Ming said to the third aunt. The third aunt stayed where she was and kept muttering, "Is the eldest son of the Li family so cowardly now?"

"Okay, if there is really a shortage of food, it's good to have this source. What's more, what Li Ming said is right. Our family can't afford to offend the Li family."

"We can't afford to offend them in any way. We have to be open-minded. If our children can be like the Li family, then it's fine."

"Alas, I can't stand the efforts of everyone in the family."

"Don't think too much. Go to sleep. You have to go to work tomorrow."

After Yan Fugui finished speaking, he quickly put out his cigarette and turned off the lights, trying to save as much as possible.

Chapter 44 Old Man Zhang has something to ask for

The next day.

When the Li family members went out to work, they met Yan Fugui in front of the courtyard gate. Yan Fugui had long lost the domineering momentum he had when he first went to the Li family last night, and he greeted the Li family members frequently.

"Yes, old man Yan Fugui knows when to advance and when to retreat."

Father Li commented while sitting on the back of his son's bicycle.

Li Ming smiled after hearing this. "This Yan Fugui is a teacher after all, so he's not stupid. I guess he just lost his mind a while ago."

"If it was the middle court's idiot Zhu, he would probably dare to fight with others if he got angry, but Yan Fugui can't do that."

The father and son chatted and laughed all the way, and then separated when they arrived at the steel mill.

The Sangu office of the steel rolling mill.

Li Ming pushed the door open and, as expected, it was filled with smoke and mist, like a fairyland.

Li Ming walked to the only window and opened it. "What's going on?"

"I'm not so depressed when I see you guys smoking on weekdays!"

The few people who were smoking looked up at Comrade Li Ming and said nothing more.

It was Xu Qiang who was sitting behind the desk who spoke up, "Let them collect some food early."

"As a result, they went to the countryside one by one to look for widows. They had a lot of fun, but they didn't collect the grain that they were supposed to harvest at home."

After saying this, Xu Qiang glared at the salted fish.

"If that doesn't work, then go to the Pigeon Market. Even though the quantity is small, you can stock up if you go there a few more times. It's just a matter of ordering more or less."

Li Ming said casually.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Tian responded in a muffled voice, "We can only go to Pigeon Market. It's not that we didn't collect food when we went to the countryside before, but there was nothing to eat in the countryside either."

For a moment, the usually bustling Sangu office was silent. As for Li Ming taking out the food in the space to sell outside? That was a way to death. Comrade Li Ming would never sell it openly. He could only continue to hoard it and wait until next year to go to the pigeon market to sell it slowly. Anyway, it would not expire if it was left in the warehouse.

. . . . . .

Afternoon, Sangu Office.

Li Ming couldn't stand the people inside sighing and complaining about their fate, so he started a conversation.

"I'm going fishing. Do you want to go? At least we can have something to eat."

"No, you go ahead."

"We still have to figure out a way."

"Akira, go by yourself."

"Okay, then I'll go by myself." Seeing that no one was going with him, he felt happy and peaceful. He picked up his bucket and fishing rod, then rode his bicycle and headed straight for the Jinshui River.

On the way, Li Ming saw many people with pale faces. Although most of them were in this condition before, at least they were in high spirits. Now because of this commotion, everyone looks very worried. This is not a real disaster year yet.

Shaking his head, Li Ming parked his bicycle in the old place and locked it. Then he leisurely carried his fishing gear to his old fishing spot by the Jinshui River.

"Hey, old man, you come here every day!" Li Ming saw from afar old man Zhang calmly fishing with a fishing rod, and the two door gods were still following him.

When Old Man Zhang heard Li Ming's voice, he jumped up from his stool and hurriedly greeted Secretary Li.

"Hurry, go back quickly, let Xiao Liu drive and pick up my granddaughter quickly, hehe."

"Last time, my granddaughter said she wanted to see this guy."

Secretary Li trotted to the roadside after receiving the order.

After a while, Li Ming came over with a question mark on his face, "No, why did your secretary run away to see me today?"

"He owes me money? Or something!"

Old man Zhang didn't care when he heard Li Ming's nonsense. "Well, I suddenly remembered something and asked him to go back."

"Tsk tsk, you're already retired and still have so much to do! Can't you give me a break?"

Li Ming was verbally attacking Old Man Zhang while packing up his fishing gear.

Old man Zhang didn't care at all and just laughed foolishly to himself.

This aroused Li Ming's curiosity. He looked up at the guard named Wang beside Old Man Zhang and asked, "Hey, is your old man stupid?"

"Do you want to take him to have his head checked?"

Li Mingshun pointed at old man Zhang's head, and the guard named Wang almost couldn't hold back his laughter.

Seeing that the two men ignored him, Li Mingle enjoyed the peace and quiet. He raised his hand and started casting the fishing rod.

"Hey, Ichijo!"

"Another one!"

"Oh, a turtle finally came today!"

Not long after Li Ming arrived at the river, he caught the fish that Old Man Zhang had not been able to catch in a week.

He lowered his head and counted the big treasures in the bucket, "Oh, that's enough for today."

"I didn't expect today to be so fast, haha."

"Old Zhang, I'm back! You can fish slowly~"

As soon as these words were spoken, Old Man Zhang immediately became anxious. It was because his granddaughter had not arrived yet. If Li Ming left by the time his precious granddaughter arrived, all his efforts today would be in vain!

"No, no! Please stay for a while and chat with an old man like me."

Old man Zhang stopped Li Ming, who was packing up his fishing gear, with a smile on his face.

"No! When I first came here, I wanted to chat with you, but you ignored me. Now I want to leave, and you stop me again!"

"What do you want to do?" Li Ming looked at Old Man Zhang with suspicion, always feeling that this old guy was up to something bad today.

"Are you harboring some bad intentions?"

"Bah! What on earth can an old man like me care about you?"

Old man Zhang cursed back directly.

"You're still thinking about me, my fish, and my body!"

Li Ming pursed his lips and retorted, which left Old Man Zhang speechless. To be honest, Old Man Zhang really had thought about it.

"Okay, I told you to cooperate with me for a while, otherwise I will lose face."

Li Ming finally let go, "Why didn't you say so earlier? We should give the Buddha a face instead of a monk. We are fishing friends after all!"

"Don't worry, just say it. I will help you today and give you an honorable mention!"

Old man Zhang was delighted and said with a laugh, "You said it, don't stand me up!"

"say."

The old man's already atrophied brain cells slowed down and finally understood what he meant. He said with a smile, "Can't you just speak seriously?"

"I told my granddaughter last time. She was very curious about you and told me to let her know if I run into you next time I go fishing. She wants to meet you."

Comrade Li Ming was stunned. "Well, it's just a small matter, why do you have to hide it? If you had told me earlier, I would have cooperated with you directly."

Comrade Li Ming waved his hand. What the hell did he think it was? It turned out that he just wanted to meet the children of high-ranking officials. He had no intention of climbing up the social ladder, so he just met them!

We, the good young people of later generations, have experienced countless storms and waves on the Internet. Is this little thing considered a big deal?
