Siheyuan: Buyers get rich from hunting

Chen Ying's mother's name is Cuihua, and she is a typical rural woman.

When she heard the title "city buyer" on the radio, she couldn't help but feel suspicious, but then she thought it couldn't be fake.

If it was someone from the village, she might be skeptical, because the villagers did not have this ability, and these kids often lied and had been punished by the village chief several times.

So when she heard the broadcast, she shouted to her two daughters without hesitation: "Go to the reservoir and reserve a spot. I'll go get the cornmeal."

After hearing this, the two daughters nodded excitedly and ran towards the reservoir with brisk steps.

Along the way, they met many villagers from the same village who were also running towards the reservoir.

Some villagers even said with emotion: "This is more lively than the Chinese New Year. Normally, there is no chance for so many people to gather together."

Another villager chimed in: "Yeah, not only can we get fish, but we can also join in the fun, it's really great."

At this time, Chen Pingtun, standing on the top of the mountain, looked at the villagers from the foot of the mountain rushing in like a tide, forming a long team, and his heart tightened.

He quickly turned to Liu Ping'an and said, "Ping'an, the villagers are all coming up with their belongings. We have to go down quickly to maintain order."

Liu Pingan smiled and nodded, then said to Chen Xiaohu and Chen Dahu: "Xiaohu, you and your brother will maintain order at the scene. Don't let anyone cut in line. Do you understand?"

"Understood, Captain." The two answered in unison.

Then, Liu Pingan turned to look at Chang Yan and Li Yuan and said, "Chang Yan, Li Yuan, you two are responsible for exchanging fish according to the standards I just mentioned. Don't worry, we still have to go hunting later, so you can take your time. Just treat it as a little benefit for the villagers."

They had just worked hard and caught fish of similar sizes.

This was naturally because Liu Ping'an used the power of space when catching fish and put all the smaller fish back into the river.

After all, if the fish is too small, it is better to give it directly to the villagers instead of spending energy catching it.

However, doing so would not be in line with his role as a buyer.

In fact, since he took the position of buyer, he has never actually successfully purchased any supplies from the villagers.

This was a rare opportunity, and he really wanted to try out this purchasing experience.

Soon the village chief came over to maintain order in the team. The villagers did not make a noise. Instead, they lined up and watched the fish turning over and over on the ground with great interest.

"Oh, this fish is so lively and big. It must taste delicious."

"That's right. We have to say that the workers in the city are different from us. We have been trying to catch fish in this reservoir for several years but have only caught a few. Look at them, they caught dozens of fish in one go. That's the difference."

"I guess they have a secret recipe for catching fish. I'll ask them later. We can try it later."

Chen Pingtun, who was maintaining order on the side, glanced at the two and reminded them, "They all said it was luck, and even if you try, you need to have a fishing net as strong as others."

After hearing this, the others were a little frustrated. Yes, where did they get the fishing nets? Besides, they had been doing this for so many years and knew that catching fish depended on luck.

"In fact, catching fish is not that difficult. As long as you are willing to learn and master some skills, you can catch a lot of fish."

After hearing these words, everyone's eyes were focused on the person who spoke, who was Liu Ping'an.

He went on to say: "First, you need to choose a good fishing spot. Generally speaking, places with slow currents, moderate water depths and lush aquatic plants are more likely to have fish. Secondly, you need to prepare the right tools, such as fishing nets, fish hooks, baits, etc. Finally, you need to be patient and wait for the fish to bite."

After listening to it, everyone nodded and said that they benefited a lot. Someone asked curiously: "Do you have any special skills?"

Liu Pingan smiled and said, "Of course there are! For example, if you want to catch big fish, you can use a bigger fish hook and hang the bait deeper; if you want to catch small fish, you can use a smaller fish hook and hang the bait shallower. Also, if there are a lot of fish in the water, you can sprinkle some flour or rice to attract their attention before lowering the hook."

Everyone listened with great interest and even wanted to try it out.

What Liu Ping'an said were all the experiences he had seen from watching fishing hosts in his previous life. Those fishermen had their own strengths, such as the fishing bait flow, the fishing flow, and the luck flow, and he had learned a lot from them.

But he is just a cloud viewer, he just watched, his mind was blank, and he had zero practical experience!

Chen Pingtun, who was standing by, was afraid that these people might want to give it a try, so he said to them, "Have you forgotten the instructions of the village chief?"

When everyone heard this, they nodded dejectedly.

A few years ago, someone went fishing, but accidentally fell into the water and drowned.

Since then, the village chief no longer allowed anyone to catch fish. He would send people to guard the reservoir every day, and only allowed villagers to fetch water but not to go into the water.

The villagers were quite obedient and no one dared to mention catching fish again.

We started distributing and exchanging fish today, and the first one was Cuihua, Chen Pingtun’s wife.

When Cuihua got the fish, she was completely stunned.

She never thought that she could get such a big fish with just a little cornmeal!

Could it be that Liu Ping'an picked this out specifically for her? Cuihua was a little confused, but when she saw that other families were doing the same, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, every household exchanged cornmeal for fish.

These days flour is basically cornmeal, and no one can afford the better refined white flour.

At the same time, people gradually discovered that the amount of fish they got was not proportional to the amount of corn flour they paid, which caused discussion.

"Hey, look at my fish, it's so big. It seems that person made a mistake and gave me a big one."

"You are such a fool. It's obvious that others want to give me the big fish to eat, and they didn't ask for much corn flour, but you are still complacent. It's really shameful."

"These buyers are so nice. I heard from my elders that they encountered robbers on their way back and it was these buyers who saved them. They were so brave! I didn't expect that Huanyu would also think of us. They are really nice people."

The village chief and Chen Pingtun looked at each other and said nothing.

After all, it is someone else's decision.

But they liked Liu Ping'an and his companions more and admired them more.

Before long, all the fish in their hands were given away, and only Liu Ping'an and four others still had a fish in their hands.
