A net was cast out, full of river fishes leaping in the net, and the scales refracted the silver light in the sun.
Grandpa put his fishing nets on his sweaty head, and his face was full of joy.
In the middle of the river, the stone stood like a stone, with albacores with fangs and teeth passing by from time to time. These fish swim very fast in the water, and they are powerful and extremely fierce. Few people dare to stand in the middle of the river, because once attacked by a school of albacore fish, the end will be miserable.
But Stone doesn't care about this.
He was punctured with a small hole in a finger and placed in the river with a little bloodshot. A long-finned fish smelled and twitched its tail towards the finger.
Failed to bite.
The stone's thumb was lightly pressed on the head of the albacore, and the ferocious fish immediately passed out. Then he didn't look at it, and threw it back behind him, "plopped", and the big fish landed on the deck, extremely quiet. Simone scrambled to grab the albacore and put it into the large water tank on the boat.
Counted, this is already the twentieth.
"Enough, Enough! Brother Stone, come up! Stop catching it!" Simone yelled at Stone.
The stone walked back to the ship step by step: "Why? I can ... catch more."
"It's not necessary." Simone replied very seriously: "We've caught a lot. Before, we could only get one or two albacores a day. Now we can get one or twenty a day all at once. It's enough. You see, now Grandpa can do nothing but play with his own fish. "
"But ... I can catch more." Stone repeated this with a little mutter.
"I know." Simone graciously touched the face of the stone. "But it really isn't necessary. This river is a reward from the gods, but the reward is also limited. We can't fish in the river unlimitedly, then It will make them extinct, and it will make people no longer eat fish. Whether it is for us or for others, this is not good. Our income is already quite good now, as long as some fish are sold at the market, You can sell for a good price. "
Looking at Simone in confusion, Stone thought for a while, then said, "You ... are easy to be content."
"If you don't have the ability to satisfy your desires, then at least learn to control your desires," Simone answered.
"This is ... who said?" The confusion in Stone's eyes was even greater.
"God told us." Simone put her small fists in her chest and closed her eyes to thank God.
With the passage of time, Stone is basically no problem in speaking. However, his memory has not recovered and his character is still cold. Perhaps the only exception was for Simone, who only spoke to Simone, not even Grandpa.
At this moment he looked at Simone's sincere prayer and thought about it, kneeling beside Simone and praying together.
He looks very religious.
After praying, Simone quickly stood up: "Well, it's still early, I'm going to the market to sell fish. Brother Stone, stay here, don't go anywhere, wait for me to make fish soup for you."
"I want to go too."
Simone and Grandpa froze at the same time.
For the first time, Stone asked to go to the market with Simone.
"You're going to the market with me?" Simone asked in surprise.
"Well." Stone nodded surely.
"But there are a lot of people there, don't you hate talking to others?"
"A lot of fish ... heavy ... I don't want you to be tired." Stone answered Simone's eyes seriously.
Simone stared blankly at the stone and suddenly flung him into his arms, hooking his neck.
She kissed him gently on his face.
Grandpa turned his head with interest, looked at the sky, and went into the cabin with his hands on his back.
The bazaar is in a small town about three miles from the river.
Every morning, fishermen by the river, farmers in the village, and some craftsmen will sell their goods here and buy their own needs.
Since the stones helped fish, Simony's harvest has increased significantly and has become the largest supplier of albacores in the area.
In the past, Simone rushed to the market with his grandfather and pushed the waterwheel. The waterwheel was rented, and he paid ten silver vets every day. Today, however, Stone alone solved the problem. He directly put the large water tank containing dozens of albacores on his body, as if resisting Taishan's porter, drawing countless people all the way.
Simone was very sorry for the stone, but this guy was so powerful that he didn't even need to stop to catch his breath. Simone didn't even have the chance to wipe his sweat.
After reaching the market, Stone put the water tank on the ground, and Simony started to sell it.
"Selling albacore fish! One Jinweit! Let's take a look, they are all very big, and they just caught them today." Simone's voice was very sweet.
Because of its fierce bloodthirsty, albacore is difficult to catch and delicious, and has always been expensive in the market. The average fisherman can catch one or two Jinweit's income every day. If you add some small fish, then this day is a good harvest.
But Simone recently sold 20 of them 20 a day, which has to be said to be a miracle.
What makes a fisher girl have such a good harvest?
Due to the market's hot sales, albacore never worry about the market. Some nobles often send representatives here for long-term acquisitions.
Simonie's hawker didn't last long, and he was bought by a fat aristocratic representative all twenty albacore fish in one breath. In the hand of those twenty Kimvites to Simone, the fat representative said, "Little girl, you've been amazing recently. You can catch so much every day."
"It's all a gift from God." Simone answered with a smile.
"It turned out to be a devout holy man, which is fine."
Large fish are sold out, and some small fish need to be processed. Simone was a little impatient and waited for a long time. She simply lowered the price and dealt with it all. After getting another King Witt, Simone counted the glittering gold coins, and her happiness was beyond count.
Then she shoved a whole handful of King Witt into the stone: "Help me look at them, don't let anyone take them away."
Stone was indifferent to this. In fact, from the beginning to the end of the fish sale, he stood still like a wooden stake. To him, everything except Simone is meaningless.
When Simone asked him to look at the money, he held the gold coin tightly, very tightly.
"Maybe someone can make an exception." A voice came suddenly.
Five or six men stood not far away. The one headed was a one-eyed dragon with a hell-headed wolf in his hand. This gale twin-headed wolf is a Level 6 Warcraft. It has two heads and is a very powerful melee Warcraft. Its looks are fierce, its huge fangs are exposed, and the saliva comes out of its two big mouths from time to time, with a low hissing sound in its throat.
If it wasn't for the one-eyed dragon who was holding it all the time, maybe it would have swooped up for all the humans it could see.
When Simone saw the one-eyed dragon coming, he took a few steps quickly, and stopped at a distance of about five meters from the hell-headed wolf: "It was Master Fahe, and I'm glad to see you."
"Happy?" One-eyed dragon pouted his lips: "No one here is happy to see me, no one has ever seen it. If you are really happy to see me, it only means that I am too kind. In fact, I think I have recently It's been a bit merciful at this time. "
Stone came to Simone: "Who is he?"
"He is ..." While Simone was considering what words to use to describe the man in front of him, Cyclops had said: "It's a hooligan, a villain, a bastard, a cursing existence for all, it's a sucking pity Guy's blood vampire. Although you can call me like that, the boy picked by Simone, I've heard of you, a poor worm who has lost memory. He doesn't even know which woman's hole he fell from .Ha ha ha ha. "
Several people around Cyclops laughed at the same time.
Then Cyclops stretched out his hand: "Bring it."
Simone sighed and said to the stone, "Will you give me fifty silver vets?"
"Why?" Stone didn't understand. Just now, Simone ordered herself to take good care of the money.
"He charges a protection fee here, fifty silver vets per stall per day. If you don't pay, we don't want to do business here."
"That's right," said the one-eyed dragon with a smile. "But it's no longer fifty silver vets, ten golden vets."
"What are you talking about?" Simone called out in disbelief. "What are you kidding, Master Faye, no one can accept this price!"
"Of course, others can't, but you can. You sold 20 albacores today, and you got a total of 21 King Witts." The Cyclops cried out excitedly: "When you sell on the first day I haven't said anything when there are so many people out there. There will always be good luck, and I won't raise the price because of this. But when you sell this every day, the nature is different. "
The one-eyed dragon shook his finger: "The price has changed, and the protection fee is ten Kimvits. I know you can afford it."
"Only for me?" Simone asked.
"Of course, who claims that only you have such gains. I didn't ask you to ask that the income of the previous days is already cheap for you, chick."
"It's so unfair, Master Fahe." Simone cried.
"Fair?" One-eyed dragon laughed. "Are you fair to the hooligan? Are you kidding, Simone? Now, I warn you, either leave the money behind and roll me back to fish. Or ..."
He swept over Simone's body, and then issued a weird weird smile: "Either you stay with me today for the night, and I can consider not raising your price, of course, only today. Ten Jinweite one night, I give you The price is not low. "
Simone was shaking with anger, but she couldn't accept the one-eyed dragon's threat. After all, this is the only market in this area.
She whispered, "God will punish you."
Then she looked at the stone with a pleading look: "Brother Stone, give them money."
"Why ... must give ... his money? He didn't ... participate in our ... labor."
Simone smiled bitterly. She didn't know how to explain it to the stone. Before that, she had been teaching various principles, knowledge and principles of life, but she never told the stone that the world is not all bright The presence of the dark side.
"Because ... because ..." Simone stuttered.
"Because we have this." The one-eyed dragon in the distance shook his fist, and then he pointed to the two-headed wolf that was strangled by himself: "And this one."
Stone looked at the two-headed wolf. He pointed at it, looked at the one-eyed dragon with questioning eyes, and the one-eyed dragon nodded: "That's right, it's the money, or I will let it kill you, Simone you Know that I can and dare to do so. "
Simone shivered and said, "Give him the money, he can do it."
Stone looked at Simone, and then at Cyclops.
He seemed to be confused, puzzled, and thought about something.
Finally, he strode toward the Cyclops.
He didn't take the money out, but looked at the two-headed wolf led by the one-eyed dragon.
Just stare at it like that.
The hell-headed wolf kept roaring and snarling, staring at him with his tail clamped against the stone.
For some reason, the two-headed wolf suddenly shuddered and stopped screaming, his eyes gradually became frightened, and his entire body began to curl up.
He lay on the ground, making a pitiful cry like a puppy: "Woo ..."
As if wronged.
The sight surprised everyone.
Stone looked coldly at the two-headed wolf bowed his head, and he took two steps back and returned to Simone's side.
He said seriously: "That wolf ... is not fierce."
Then he took Simone's hand and left.
A group of rogues collecting protection fees watched them go away, but none came to stop them.
The Cyclops also stayed.
"How did that guy do it?" He asked.
No one can answer.
The Cyclops approached his pet dog curiously, looked at it, and hit his two heads with his fists: "Hey, you idiot, how did you become so useless? What are you doing? Who gave you the medicine? Did you become such a mess? "
He was a little angry, and his beating hand became very heavy. He didn't notice that as the stone went away, the eyes of the two-headed wolf changed color, and the spirit was returning to its body. He was still confused. He even opened the head of the wolf to look inside. He mumbled, "What's wrong? You shouldn't be so gentle, you should be brutal, violent, nothing. Human. "
"Woo!" The four eyes of Hell's two-headed wolf looked at the half of his head sticking into his mouth, and his eyes flashed with incomprehensible light.
Big mouth closed.
"Oh !!!" There was a terrible cry at the fair. !! ~!
