Half-Yokai Cultivating the Path of Immortality Chapter 330: Mobei
The sun is rising.
Many small boats on the lake are trawling and setting hooks to catch fish, shrimps, crabs and shells in the water and mud.
An empty body of water.
Lu Tong sank to the bottom of the water.
The palm of the hand was inserted into the soft sand, the fingers were spread apart like a five-finger rake, and the wings were flapped to plow across the bottom of the lake.
White shells, black snails, and large clams were dug out one by one.
Dian Si'er, wearing a silver helmet, followed closely beside him, picked out a few large clams, white shellfish, etc. and threw them into the silver mesh bag.
After half a stick of incense.
Lu Tong broke out of the water and shook the wings on his back.
The six wings seemed to be covered with a water-proof film. Countless water and mud beads rolled down, and they soon became completely clean.
The two returned to the deck.
Dian Si'er put down his net bag, took out a large clam nearly a foot wide, pried open the shell, and took out several gold and white beads from inside.
"Sir, this is the most common water clam. It has the function of warming blood and regulating qi, which is beneficial to practice. The more white, the better the color. The best color can be sold for one penny when it is as big as the belly of your finger."
Lu Tong took the bead.
There are four in total, the largest one is only as big as a soybean, and the other three are just a tiny bit.
"How much do these cost?"
"If you're lucky, you can sell the big one for five cents, and the other three by the pound."
Lu Tong calculated it and said unexpectedly: "A clam can be sold for five cents, and you can feed a family by earning twenty cents a day. Are the people in Guyudu Port richer than Yunying City?"
"Yes. The ferry looks very shabby, but there are many rich people."
Dian Si'er picked out another slender white clam, pried it open and took out a small long bead like a grain of rice. He said: "This is the white rice clam. An inch-long clam bead can be sold for two coins of silver. Every day Autumn has the most rare clams, shells, snails, etc. People say that if you are lucky, you can save enough money to build a foundation in one autumn."
Lu Tong took the small long bead.
Under the morning light, the round bead surface reflects a white luster, which looks very attractive.
The white rice clam is whiter than snow after use.
There is no such thing in Yunying City, at least there are no stores selling it on the market. If you send it over, you shouldn't have to worry about selling it.
"Erhu, you really found a precious place."
"The profits are huge and the water is deep. There are many shops selling beads here, so they should have a good background. Not long after I came here, I have already met four shopkeepers from the Third Realm of Foundation Establishment."
Lu Tong nodded slowly and said, "That's right. Who is around Erhu to help him?"
"Jiang Lu, the elder brother I swore sworn vows to on Yanyan Island during the Chinese New Year. I asked Lao Ba to keep an eye on Er Hu and Jiang Lu. Do you want to meet me?"
He was a little confused and asked: "Which old man?"
"I have met before. Erhu's sworn brother was named Qixian. There was an uncle named Qipeng who died while looking for the Goddess Tears with me."
Lu Tong immediately recalled it.
Lao Wu Qipeng was hit by a wind cannon with Dahan. After his death, his son became a disciple of Erhu.
"Is there any rift between Qixian and Erhu?"
"No. I gave him a copy of the exercises privately, and also gave him a sum of money to help him build his foundation."
……
At noon, the sun is extremely fierce.
The brig stopped at a mudflat covered with water plants.
A figure landed on the deck, walked quickly into the cabin, cupped his hands and said: "Qi Xian pays homage to the Immortal!"
Lu Tong looked up and down.
With a round face and a flat nose, he looks very similar to Qipeng in his memory, except that he is younger.
"Sit."
"Xie Xianchang."
Qixian sat on a chair, his back straight.
Lu Tong asked: "Where is Erhu? What are you busy with?"
"The leader is sleeping."
"How can I sleep at noon?"
"Recently, I fish for pig-nosed clams at night and sleep during the day."
Qi Xian took out a palm-sized blue shell from the bracelet and handed it over: "This is it. The flesh is like a pig's snout, and there are two thunder beads inside. Thunder beads are very valuable."
Lu Tong takes Lan Bei.
The shell is covered with faint blue lines, and after being pried open, there is a ball of mussel meat in the shape of a pig's nose.
He touched it a few times but found no thunder beads, so he asked, "Where are the beads?"
"Chief Chiang took it away."
"Jiang Lu?"
"Yes."
Lu Tong blinked and asked, "What are Erhu and Jiang Lu responsible for?"
"The leader leads people to fish for shellfish, while leader Chiang sells beads and divides the money."
He frowned.
Fishing for shellfish is hard work, selling beads is a good job, and sharing money is not only a good job, but it can also win over people.
"Erhu has no objection?"
"The boss sold it several times, but couldn't get a good price, so he simply gave it to Chief Jiang."
He nodded, and after thinking for a moment, asked: "The Yu family also catches this kind of pig-nosed clam?"
"Yes, the Yu family's clay vultures are very smart and know everything of value."
"If you are smart, why do you bite the bait?"
After touching the shell once in the morning, Lu Tong was very curious.
The lake is large and can accommodate hundreds of boats.
Even if you catch the same kind of shellfish, it is difficult to hit them together, let alone using a fishing rod and a clay vulture at the same time.
Unless...
The fishing rod catches not only shellfish, but also mud vultures.
Qixian touched his head and said, "I don't know either. Leader Jiang said that the Yu family is targeting us and wants to drive us away. But the leader doesn't seem to believe it."
The corners of Lu Tong's mouth curled up.
This is right. Erhu has always been very smart and will not be led around stupidly.
"Why don't you believe it?"
"A few times, the leader temporarily changed places and changed the bait. Another time, the leader said privately that it was difficult to get the money and he was afraid of losing it. It would be nice if the immortal was here."
Lu Tong lowered his head and thought for a moment, then raised his head and said, "Is there anything else?"
Qi Xian hesitated for a while and asked, "Exian, will the boss be in danger?"
"Probably not."
After meeting Qixian, Lu Tong was still a little confused and explained: "This matter started because of me. Jiang Lu should have other plans. After the matter is found out, I will go to see Erhu. Go ahead."
"Yes."
Qixian retreats.
Dian Si'er said: "Master, why don't you call Erhu over? Take Jiang Lu and ask directly."
Lu Tong shook his head~IndoMTL.com~ and said: "They are too cheap. If you dare to scheme against us, you will have to peel off a layer of skin even if you die. Send a letter to the Yu family and say that Xiong Zhen Gong's The junior brother in the sect is going to visit us."
"Okay."
……
The moonlight is like water, and ripples are rippling on the boundless lake.
On the mast, a cluster of colorful wings flashed brightly.
Lu Tong sits cross-legged and practices meditation.
Wan Yi and Wan Xi stood on the left and right to protect the Dharma.
After a long time.
He restrained his magic power, took a long breath, looked into the distance and said: "How much money can you make every year by opening a big restaurant in Aoshan City?"
Wanxi had no reaction.
Wan Yi was very interested and asked: "How big is it?"
"Six buildings, each with three floors, can accommodate hundreds of people. Two martial arts buildings sell medicinal meals and banquets. Two elegant buildings have study rooms and piano rooms, and the other two sell hundreds of dishes. ."
Fu Sushuang's appetite is too big, but it's a good idea.
Wan Yi calculated it and said: "Assuming a thousand people, each person earns one penny of silver, one hundred taels per day, which is more than 30,000 taels per year?"
Lu Tong couldn't help but shook his head.
Wan Yi’s mind probably doesn’t even understand how to set up a street stall.
Wanxi suddenly asked: "What medicinal diet?"
"Things that can help with spiritual practice include strengthening the muscles and bones, warming the flesh and blood, and regulating the magic power."
"The profit is not small."
"Oh, so sure?"
"Kong Yewei owns three restaurants, which together are not as big as you said. They earn more than 50,000 taels per year."
When Wanxi talked about her dead husband, her expression did not waver at all.
Lu Tong's eyes widened and he said, "So many?"
"Yes. There is no lack of background or connections. As long as the product is good, there is no need to worry about whether it can be sold."
He nodded and couldn't help but start thinking.
Maybe you can try opening a restaurant.
