Taoyuan little fisherman

Chapter 21 The Covenant
"Uncle, third uncle, why are you here?"

Wang Tianhui welcomed the two of them into the door, they were travel-laden, and they seemed to be walking in a hurry.

"Did something happen?"

The third uncle spoke first, "Tianhui, I heard that you sold a fish for [-] yuan? Is it true?"

"Ah? How do you know?"

Wang Tianhui was at a loss, and the first thing he thought of was the old village chief who was going to notify each house, but he didn't seem to know that he had caught Dong Xingban?

"What Chen Ergou said, I heard that you even gave him a grouper, Tian Hui, you kid is getting more and more generous now!"

Although the uncle was complimenting, he was a bit complaining, which made Wang Tianhui dumbfounded.

"Uncle Ergou also gave me a fish. Let's reciprocate."

"What thing sells for [-]?"

Hearing someone talking in the main room, Xu Huifang listened to the important point, put the crabs into the cauldron and ran out in a hurry.

"That's right, Tianhui, let us see what that fish looks like. Your third uncle has fished all his life, and he has never caught such a valuable fish."

Now it's meal time, these two guys didn't eat any more, so they rushed to watch the fish in a hurry.

This reminded Wang Tianhui of his childhood. When he heard that a friend in the village picked up a new shell that no one else had, would he run to see it without eating?

It's just that what attracts the uncle and the third uncle now is not how novel the fish is, but its value of 5 yuan!

"Tianhui, why are you still standing there, where is the fish?"

When Xu Huifang heard about the fish worth [-] yuan, she was pleasantly surprised, proud, and a little bit lucky—she was going to get another fish to eat just now, but fortunately she didn't do it yet.

"Well, that's it."

Wang Tianhui brought the bucket over, and the heads of the three squeezed through.

"How delicious is this fish? Is it worth 5 yuan?" The uncle was a little confused. In his old thinking, it is impossible to spend so much money for a bite.

"Uncle, people in the city buy fish not only for eating, but also for viewing. This fish is worth the money if it is placed in the store to attract customers." Wang Tianhui explained.

"Oh, it's such a thing. We really don't understand the thinking of the people in this city."

"Brother, did you see it? Tianhui is knowledgeable after going to university. If we catch this fish, we will definitely cook it and taste it. This money is not profitable at all. It would be great if you let Tianshu go to university at the beginning. You have to let her go to college as soon as possible." Marry, look, I will definitely train Tiantian well, and let her go to college!"

"I asked you to say this, isn't Tianyao still studying in the city? He will definitely be as promising as Tianhui in the future!"

Listening to the argument between the two, Wang Tianhui didn't feel anything, but Xu Huifang felt very comfortable listening to it.

At this time, the smell of crabs in the kitchen flew into the main room. When the uncle and third uncle smelled the fragrance, their stomachs started to growl.

"Tianhui also caught a big crab today, it looks like it's steamed, you two don't leave, let's eat together." Xu Huifang said.

"One?" the uncle said in surprise, thinking he had heard wrong.

"Well, one, it's quite big." Xu Huifang couldn't help laughing when she thought of the expressions on the two of them seeing the crab for a while.

"Forget it, second sister-in-law, just one crab. The four of us will eat it. If others know it, it's a joke." The third uncle waved his hands repeatedly.

"Uncle, third uncle, there must be enough crabs. Didn't you see that there are still some crabs in my bucket? Let's steam them if they are not enough. Come on!"

Wang Tianhui directly arranged the chairs for the two of them, and went to the kitchen to get two extra sets of bowls and chopsticks.

The uncle and the third uncle sat down, looked at each other and smiled, feeling very embarrassed.

Wang Tianhui and his mother were busy in the kitchen, dismantling the King Portunus and putting them on separate plates.

"Come on!"

Xu Huifang brought a crab shell the size of a washbasin to the table. Inside the shell were crab meat and crab roe. This swimming crab was very fat, with plump flesh and a yellowish aroma.

Wang Tianhui followed behind, holding a large plate in one hand, which contained crab legs chopped into sections, and filled with two large plates with sharp tops, each crab leg was as thick as a child's wrist.

Two large pliers were sharply opened with a saw, and two small plates of snow-white crab meat were peeled off.

A crab filled the table, which stunned the uncle and the third uncle.

"Brother, uncle, move your chopsticks quickly, it won't taste good if it gets cold in a while."

Xu Huifang looked at the expressions of the two of them, not to mention the joy in her heart, she said that our Tianhui is very good, and it gave me a face again!

The uncle picked up a piece of snow-white crab meat with trembling hands and tasted it, his eyes lit up immediately, "This is too fresh, Tianhui, where did you get such a big crab?"

Wang Tianhui said while picking up vegetables for his mother: "We are Haidilao. There are many crabs, lobsters, sea cucumbers, sea urchins, abalones, etc., and clams are all in pieces."

The third uncle stuffed his mouth and asked vaguely: "Really? Why didn't I hit it once?"

"Uncle, you're too busy eating, and you don't listen well to what people say. Didn't Tianhui say that he's at the bottom of the sea? Can you get your broken boat and net?"

The uncle and the third uncle finally realized it, and asked in unison: "The 5 yuan was also caught at the bottom of the sea?"

Wang Tianhui laughed and cried, doesn't Dong Xingban deserve to have a name?
"Well, there is indeed nothing to fish in the upper sea, but the seabed is still quite rich in seafood. As long as you have diving equipment, it will be easy to make money."

"How much is the equipment you mentioned?" Third Uncle asked.

"The standard configuration is more than 3000, and the high configuration is more than 5000."

When they heard the price, as expected, both the uncle and the third uncle took a breath.

"It's too expensive, three to five thousand can change the boat." The third uncle sighed.

"I still don't know what's going on under the sea. I can't tell you about your aunt. Hui, three to five thousand is not a small amount for a family like ours. Do you think that equipment will work?"

The uncle is also greedy, but the uncle is in charge of the money in the family, and the uncle is more picky than the mother, and asking for three to five thousand is no different from asking for her life.

Seeing that both of them were reluctant to part with money, Wang Tianhui knew that they would have such concerns. He believed that other people in the village would have the same reaction as Uncle and Uncle when they heard the price of the equipment. He had already planned it out.

"Uncle, third uncle, I'm going to the city tomorrow, and I'll buy a set of equipment when I get back. Let's go to sea and try it out."

"That's a good thing, Tianhui, third uncle will go to sea with you tomorrow, let's have a competition, if you win me, I'll also get a set of equipment, and earn money with you!"

"If it pays off quickly, I'll do something for your brother-in-law too. It's better than him running around doing small business. When he makes money, needless to say, your uncle will definitely buy it for me." Uncle also has this intention.

"Then I'll be the one who eats crabs first, and I'll test the water for you." After Wang Tianhui finished speaking, he ate a big mouthful of crab meat.

The more Xu Huifang sees her son, the happier she is now. Before, she was always worried about his idle family, but before she knew it, he became the backbone of the family. Even the elders and the third family listened to him.

Wang Tianhui was a little tired. After seeing off his uncle and third uncle, he helped his mother clean up the dishes and went back to bed.

The next morning.

A black Mercedes-Benz drove into the village, and a group of brats chased the car until they reached the gate of Wang Tianhui's house.
