fish street dad

After eating the noodles, the others went home, and those who went to work went to work. Bai Chunsheng sat on the noodle stall for a while, and when he saw that the old man was about to close the table, he blushed and touched his nose, and stood up to help him. The stool is put away.

"The younger generation has a falling out with the head of the family?" There are young people who come out to work every day on the pier and are dismissed by the boss for various reasons. The melon was handed to him, "Here, I grew it at home, don't dislike it, go home as soon as you finish eating! I'll come back to find a job in a few days, don't worry my family."

"Thank you, old man. Let me stack this stool for you." The stall owner probably only sells the morning and noon, and now it seems that the stall is about to be closed. All received in the shop.

After helping the old man put away the tables and chairs, Bai Chunsheng took a melon and a pack of unsold yellow croakers from the old man, and walked aimlessly on the street.

This street in Qingshuihe Town is close to the pier, and the street about 100 meters away is the most prosperous "commercial street" in the town.Naturally, there are shops along the street, and there are deep alleys between the shops from time to time. Go in along the alleys, and you will find residential areas inside. Most of the residential areas are built along the river, and there is a small stone step at the back door. It can be used to wash clothes and vegetables at ordinary times, and it is also convenient to dock when there are small boats pulling groceries to sell.

Bai Chunsheng sat on an unused stone step, hugging his knees, staring blankly at the clear and bright river, his mind was empty.

He didn't know how he came to this strange world, people here seemed to be familiar with fairies like them, even the boss of the pier was a black fish spirit!I don't know whether the official in the yamen is a human or a demon...

He stayed on the boat for the past few days, and he deliberately inquired with people who knew him on the boat, and he knew that he was a river clam spirit accidentally caught by the boss of the boat when he was fishing. Knowing nothing and having great strength, he was coaxed by the boat boss to stay on the boat. He gave a few steamed buns and a bowl of vegetables every day, and became free strong laborers.

The original mussel spirit probably didn't know much about the world, and he was really curious about the world on the shore, so he followed the boss of the boat to work on the boat, but probably only a few days after he came up, he became himself for some reason, Although Bai Chunsheng has a good temper, he would not be fooled into being a free laborer by someone like the boss of the boat. After roughly understanding what he wanted to know, he took advantage of today's incident and successfully escaped.

But what to do after getting out?

Looking at the calm water surface, Bai Chunsheng had no clue.

However, no matter what, he is now free, and if he stays on the boat, who knows how the boat boss and his wife will treat him?It's just for a bunch of money, so you don't feed yourself. If you can stay away from this kind of person, stay away as much as possible!

I don't know if it's been a long time in the sun, but Bai Chunsheng suddenly felt a little itchy all over his body. Looking at the clear river water, he couldn't help but want to go down for a dip.In the past few days, he also discovered that the body now is different from the human body in the past. He has to soak in water every once in a while, otherwise the skin on his body will be dry and itchy easily, just like having a skin disease. The body of the demon is really unbearable to hurt!

Silently wiping away tears in his heart, Bai Chunsheng looked around and found no one around, so he took off his outer shirt, thought for a while, fastened the money bag with copper plates on his belt firmly, and walked down the stone steps to the river , the cold river water slapped on his body, and he let out a long sigh of comfort. At the same time, he couldn't understand why this water demon insisted on coming up to the human world to live?

If he has such water quality, he can just find a deserted island to live in, and go down to the bottom of the water to touch some valuable pearls and aquatic products when he has nothing to do, and go ashore to sell them for money, buy whatever he wants, how comfortable he is!Why do you need to work part-time for others to earn a few meals?

I have to say that the water quality in this time and space is really nothing to say!The clear river water can almost see the aquatic plants at the bottom of the river. Bai Chunsheng swims freely in the water, feeling that it is not enjoyable, and from time to time, he has to go to the bottom of the water, because in this way, his whole body can be soaked in the water and sunburned. Some itchy scalp can also get a burst of relief.

However, what he never expected was that the sudden decision to dive into the water brought him a windfall!

There is money under the water! ! !

Under the sunlight, a ray of light was refracted from the cracks in the stones at the bottom of the water. Bai Chunsheng was bored in the water. Curious for a moment, he swam over and lifted the stones to see. There was a silver bracelet with flowers and wealth stuck underneath it. It is expensive, but for Bai Chunsheng, it is already a surprise. The silver is very soft, so it is smashed into a ball and sold. At any rate, it can be exchanged for some money to rent a house, so as to have a place to live. With the little coppers on his body, would he be hungry if he rented a house?

Of course he can catch fish to satisfy his hunger, but, as a former pure human being, Bai Chunsheng said that if he does not eat the staple food, he may die...

This unexpected discovery made Bai Chunsheng excited for a moment.

He remembered a news that he had read in his previous life. It said that someone went to the sewers of various office buildings to collect coins. If he was lucky, he could take out hundreds of coins at a time. Still think money is dirty?

Only those who are not short of money think money is dirty.

Bai Chunsheng has never been like this for a moment, thankful that he has become a clam spirit who is not afraid of water.

Stuffing the silver bracelet into the bag containing the copper plates, Bai Chunsheng searched carefully at the bottom of the water. However, he didn't search aimlessly. He thought that the places where things would drop were usually near the river bank and stone steps. I chose these places as my search locations, worked for about two hours, and harvested two broken pieces of silver and dozens of copper plates, but I have never encountered jewelry such as silver bracelets. Think about it, if ordinary people lose If you don’t have precious jewelry, you have to spend money to hire someone to go down the river to salvage it. If you can’t find it, you will give it up. Otherwise, who would be willing?

However, with these, Bai Chunsheng is already very satisfied.

Seeing that it was getting late, Bai Chunsheng climbed ashore from the water, wrung out his outer shirt, wiped off the water stains on his body, and slowly wrung out his hair. Then he shook his outer shirt and put the soaked outer shirt on On the body.

If it was an ordinary human being dressed like this, he would have caught a cold long ago. However, Bai Chunsheng is a water monster. Who has ever seen a water monster catch a cold after soaking in water?To be honest, Bai Chunsheng felt more comfortable wearing a coat soaked in water than wearing dry clothes.

With money on his body, Bai Chunsheng felt that he would come back to life in an instant.Looking around, the fish street in the evening is much more lively than in the daytime. All the stalls and sellers have come out. There are all kinds of dried fish, dried shrimp, river fresh, vegetables and wild fruits on the street, and there are some grocery stalls. Like, yelling can be heard endlessly.

However, these are not Bai Chunsheng's goals.

The first thing he has to solve now is the problem of accommodation at night.

Originally, he could stay in an inn, but when he passed by an inn, he went in and asked. The cheapest Datong shop cost ten copper coins a night, and dinner was not included. Bai Chunsheng immediately decided to give up. He didn't have much money now. He spent too much on food and lodging, so he might not have enough money to rent a house. If he couldn't find a place to live tonight, he would rather just find a place under the eaves to make do for the night.

Before that, he still wants to fight for it.

After inquiring about the local vendors on the street, and knowing that the tooth shop in Yujie is not far away, Bai Chunsheng went straight to the tooth shop without stopping.The tooth shop here is similar to their space-time intermediary agency, but the business scope of the tooth shop is wider. Whether it is buying and selling people or houses and fields, as long as it is a large and valuable item, most of them are used to doing it through the dental shop, because the dental shop If you are familiar with the Yamen, you can avoid the hurdle of being exploited by the Yamen through the Yamen.

The manager of the tooth shop was about to close the door to kill fish for his husband. When he saw a customer coming, he immediately threw the fish he just bought back into the basin, grabbed a coarse towel and wiped his hands, and asked Bai Chunsheng why he was here. , took out a thick book from the room, and slowly flipped through it——

"There are a few houses where you can live alone and you can cook. The house on the street has an old locust tree behind it. It is a courtyard house. There are five families living in it. There is also a house, which is quite spacious. , draw a curtain in the middle to separate the inside and the outside, and set up a small stove outside, it is still possible to cook meals on weekdays, 200 copper coins a month."

"That house with a row of fairy thorns hanging in front of the door at the end of the street. The house is about the same size as this one, but the house is newer. It costs 300 copper coins a month." Bai Chunsheng went around in circles, pointed to the one in front and said to him——

"I think you are dressed like a young man with a lot of money. Why don't you rent this one first and live there for now, and then change to a better one when your money becomes looser. Renting a house is not like buying a house. It's not good to live in." , the big deal is to endure the one-month lease, and just change it when it expires."

"Thank you, Uncle, please take me to have a look. If possible, this is it!" Bai Chunsheng understood the steward's words very well. As the former second-generation demolition agent and big landlord, he had to change several rents every year. If money is tight, you can rent a cheap one. If your income is high, you can change to a better house, or two couples can rent a two-bedroom apartment together. Renting a house is not like buying a house. Nothing to be sorry about.

At that moment, the person in charge took a large bunch of keys, and took Bai Chunsheng out the door. The fish street was not long, and soon he arrived at the courtyard with an old locust tree behind the house.
