Vol 4 Chapter 19: Alligator (Part 1)

Lei Xingfeng said: "How much is a catty?"

The old shopkeeper looked at the young man in front of him. This is a slender young man with a tender face but a weird sense of maturity. Said: "One copper ring is one catty, ten copper rings ... Um, eleven catties, you can use a silver ring, and a silver ring is also eleven catties."

Lei Xingfeng knows that the money here is in decimal, ten copper rings are a silver ring, and ten silver rings are a gold ring, and the coins in this mainland are quite stable. Most people use silver rings at most, basically they use copper The ring as the main coin, of course, the vast majority of ordinary people still trade by barter.

Zhou Xin said in a small voice: "Brother Lei, I have brought money ..."

Lei Xingfeng stopped him from saying that, in Tailang Yezhai, he received many gold rings, most of which were given to Lei Xingyao, but there were also a few bags of gold rings that were received in the round-robin space. Yes, and later forgot, for them, Golden Ring is nothing.

In the backhand, a leather bag appeared in Lei Xingfeng's hand. The bag was very exquisitely made, light brown leather with elastic leather cord at the mouth. He reached out and grabbed a hand out of the leather bag. A gold ring was placed on the counter, the wrist turned, and the leather bag disappeared.

The eyes of the old shopkeeper suddenly turned round. He was not an ignorant fisherman. He knew that only practitioners had similar techniques. Looking at Lei Xingfeng, he only had respect in his eyes and no arrogance. He was surprised: "It is gold Ring! This ... no problem, a gold ring can buy 110 pounds of rice. "

Although Uncle Zhou is a fisherman, but he is not stupid, he said: "Old shopkeeper, you sell expensive."

The old shopkeeper didn't move, he did sell expensive, but it was normal, he sold at a normal rate, in fact, the actual value of the gold ring is quite high, a gold ring in the market, you can change more than ten Instead of silver rings, you can change eleven silver rings, plus a few copper rings, because the gold ring is easier to carry and is the favorite of those big businessmen.

"Okay, how much do you say?"

Uncle Zhou said: "A golden ring plus ten pounds of rice."

The old shopkeeper didn't say much this time, and nodded simply: "Okay, let's just say, a golden ring, 120 pounds of rice, how much do you buy?"

Lei Xingfeng said: "That's all." He pointed to the golden ring on the counter.

The old shopkeeper counted it and said, "Seven golden rings, 840 pounds of rice, right?"

Lei Xingfeng nodded and said: "Yes."

Zhou Xin is still counting with his fingers, but he is still unclear. Uncle Zhou shot him and smiled: "Don't count, you can't count."

Lei Xingfeng said: "The rice is put in the shop first, and we will get it when we leave."

The old shopkeeper nodded and said: "Okay, I will send a buddy to help you get on the boat."

When leaving, Uncle Zhou specifically said: "Old shopkeeper, if you want to give us new rice, Chen Mi doesn't need to take it out. This is the rice bought with Jinhuan."

The old shopkeeper smiled and said: "Relax, I will give the best rice!"

As soon as he went out, Zhou Xin couldn't help but say: "Brother Lei, where did you put your money bag, why can't I see it!"

Uncle Zhou knew a little bit, and he asked a bit cautiously, "Brother Lei, are you a wheel master?"

Lei Xingfeng said with a smile: "Uncle, if I were a chakra master, would you ignore me?" He knew that a cultivator put pressure on ordinary people, he didn't have the mentality of being superior, and he was very peaceful for ordinary people, especially Treating Uncle Zhou and Zhou Xin, the two can be regarded as his life-saving benefactor, and he does not need to be arrogant.

Uncle Zhou said: "Of course not, you, are you really a chakra master?" He still couldn't believe it.

Lei Xingfeng said: "Well, really, but I will stay here for a while, uncle, won't you drive me away?"

Zhou Xin opened his mouth wide, for a while, he was pleasantly surprised: "Wow, Master Lu ... You, you are really amazing, wow ..."

Uncle Zhou hurriedly rallied Zhou Xin, said: "Xiao Xin, speak quietly, don't shout ... Ha ha, Brother Lei, despite living, ha ha, I'm afraid that we are here, and treat you slowly."

The ordinary people have the most contact with the chakra master and the chakra master. They are called chakra masters for practitioners. As for real people, they cannot touch them. Even if they come into contact, they ca n’t figure out the level of hierarchy. As long as they are chakra masters, They are already in awe.

Lei Xingfeng said: "Xiao Xin, there's nothing fuss about it, don't you have a chakra master here?"

Zhou Xindao: "Yes, yes, we have a chakra master here, and this water village has chakra master guards, but they all live in the best houses in the chaos, there are those who are entrusted by the shopkeepers, they will not be like us. , Need to live in the lake. "

Lei Xingfeng didn't want to be entangled in this topic and said, "What else do I have to buy? Ha ha, this time I invite guests, I want to buy whatever I want."

Uncle Zhou said: "I sell this dried fish, hehe, go back for some salt."

Lei Xingfeng nodded and said, "Okay, let's go together." The three of them walked along the boardwalk and soon came to a fish shop. The price of dried fish was extremely cheap. A copper ring, four pounds of dried fish, nearly four hundred. For the dried fish, there were less than a hundred copper rings, that is, nearly one gold ring, and I directly exchanged ten pounds of coarse salt and three pounds of fine salt in the fish line. Too.

I also changed some seasonings for cooking, and there were a few crocks. Lei Xingfeng took the initiative to pay for it, because their money was not enough.

I bought a lot of things, including some underwear, bedding, and a fishing net. This is what Uncle Zhou has always wanted, but the price is too expensive. This time I bought it from Lei Xingfeng. If there is a fishing net, the harvest It was completely different. They used to use a relatively thick fishing line with a string of fish hooks on them. They were able to catch few fish, but more fish were caught by Zhou Xin.

I also bought some spirits at the market. Almost all fishermen are good at this. However, the spirits are expensive. Most of the fishermen drink their own rice wine. The spirits will only be exchanged when there are many catches. Back at one point, this time Lei Xingfeng bought two large jars of liquor in one breath, both of which were large jars of 20 catties, two golden rings and one jar of liquor.

On these two bottles of spirits, Uncle Zhou couldn't help but smile, and he was usually able to change a pound of spirits, he was already very happy, spirits can not only entertain guests, drink themselves, but also drive the cold, you can Artillery liquor can be said to be the fisherman's treasure.

According to Lei Xingfeng's temper, he even wanted to buy a new boat for Uncle Zhou, but Uncle Zhou would not accept it anyway, and he already felt that it was too much.

Until the evening, the three talents returned to the boat to sort out what they bought today. Uncle Zhou cooked rice and cooked food at the bow of the boat and prepared dinner.

The boat stopped on the wooden pier extending from the market, and the fishermen in a row of boats came back at this time. The whole pier was very lively, and there were many small vendors selling various snacks. Young children are rushing around on the pier. They often surround small vendors, biting their fingers and looking at various snacks with dizzying eyes. Of course, they have no money to buy.

Among the small vendors, the most popular ones are those who sell sugar granules. Every child has a longing in his eyes, but the price of sugar granules is extremely expensive. A copper ring can buy a small bag, a few sugar granules, very few Some fishermen are willing to spend this money.

It ’s just that the fishermen ’s children often have their own ways. For example, if a child uses the fish he caught, he exchanges a small packet of sugar granules to let all other children drool.

Lei Xingfeng was sitting on the bow of the ship, looking at the bustling pier. At this moment, he was very calm.

A large wooden barrel of rice, a crock of white water boiled fish, a pot of brine white shrimp, and a small dish of dried salted radish, and poured three bowls of spirits.

The wine smelled and immediately seduce an old man in the boat next door. He smiled and said: "Boss Zhou, drink ..." The so-called boss, relative to the name of the ship's boss, is surnamed to show respect and represents a person who can control one. Boat people.

Uncle Zhou said: "Boss Zhang, greedy? Haha, come and drink together!" The relationship between the fishermen is good, and they are natural and bold, and rarely will be pretentious. If you like it, there is nothing polite.

Mr. Zhang came across with a crock and said, "I hunted a mallard and simmered it for a long time. The heat was just right." He put down the crock, picked up a wooden bowl and took a sip The wine breathed a sigh of relief and praised: "Good wine, huh, boss Zhou, get rich, and actually drink such a good wine."

The two are very familiar, Uncle Zhou said: "Boss Zhang, what's the news recently? I just came back today."

Mr. Zhang said with a smile: "But there is news, hehe, you know the fourth son of the Tian family, they went hunting for crocodile catfish the day before yesterday, I heard that they also hired a wheel master, I don't know if they have succeeded."

Uncle Zhou surprised: "Crocodile fish? They are too brave, this thing can be cruel, if you are not careful, the boat will break."

Lei Xingfeng wondered: "What crocodile fish?"

Uncle Zhou said: "A very cruel fish, can eat people!"

Zhang Lao Avenue: "This little brother can be born, boss Zhou, is this your relative?"

Uncle Zhou responded vaguely, Lei Xingfeng had already said, let him conceal that he was a chakra master, so he did not dare to talk nonsensely, boss Zhang laughed: "The little brother does not seem to be the one here, crocodile fish but Famous. "Then he began to brag about the alligator's power.

The crocodile carp is a bit like a crocodile, but the hind limbs have been transformed into fins, the forelimbs have sharp claws, long mouths, blade-like teeth, and the body is about six meters long. An adult crocodile fish can easily Crushed a small wooden boat, ordinary fishermen never dared to provoke crocodile catfish, when they saw it, they would immediately evade.
