Song Qianning was the Fish Fairy Princess of the Queen Mother's Jade Pond. Due to a moment of gluttony, she ate the nectar and lotus seeds from the Jade Pond and was cast down to the mortal wor...
The next morning, Song Qianning and Dawang had a tacit understanding and did not mention what happened last night.
The little girl slept until dawn and had no idea what her mother and brother talked about.
After the little girl woke up, she softly called out "mother" and "brother". She looked between Dawang and Song Qianning, her little face twisted into a knot.
She always felt that something was wrong with her brother, but she couldn't put her finger on what it was. She simply shook her head and stopped thinking about it.
After breakfast, Xiaoya hugged Song Qianning's thighs and said, "Mom, can you take Xiaoya out with you today? Xiaoya will definitely be good."
Facing the cub with eyes wide open and a face full of expectation, Song Qianning was very hard-hearted: "You and Dawang wait for me at home."
Before leaving, Song Qianning looked at Xiong Zaizai who was standing quietly beside her, and reminded him, "Take good care of your sister at home."
Through the conversation last night, Song Qianning realized that her male cub was much smarter than ordinary children, and there would be no problem leaving the two cubs alone at home.
After talking to the two kids, Song Qianning locked the gate and went to the street.
It is morning now, and the market is bustling with people coming to the market. From time to time, you can hear passers-by bargaining with vendors.
Song Qianning walked and wandered, and finally came to a stall selling ducks.
The stall was full of tied ducks, and the stall owner kept shouting to greet customers. There were many people gathered around, looking at the ducks, but few came forward to buy them.
These ducks are all domestic ducks. Although they are not as strong as wild ducks, they look extremely fat at first glance.
The price of domestic ducks is similar to that of chickens, and some are even more expensive than chickens. For example, the ducks at the stall in front of you are sold by kilogram, and one kilogram costs a lot of money. A duck weighs at least ten kilograms.
Song Qianning estimated the price of the duck in her mind and couldn't help but be shocked.
The money needed to buy a duck can buy a lot of food. No wonder few people buy it.
After taking a few glances, Song Qianning shifted her gaze away from the stall in front of her.
Most of the people nearby were selling poultry, and the crowing of chickens and ducks could be heard constantly, but I didn't see many people selling fish.
After walking around for nearly half a circle, Song Qianning found a peasant woman selling fish in front of her. Her eyes lit up instantly and she walked towards the peasant woman's stall.
"Auntie, how much is this fish?"
"These fish I caught are all fresh, very fresh, and they cost five cents per pound."
The farmer's fish are all alive. Each fish is about the size of an adult's palm, and its price is almost as high as other meats.
Song Qianning never expected that fresh fish would be so expensive. Her eyes widened slightly. She thought that a fresh fish would cost at most one or two cents, especially these fish with more bones and less meat.
After asking the price, Song Qianning lost the desire to buy. He touched his chin and suddenly had an idea.
It is better to catch fish directly than to buy them, which saves money and trouble.
With nothing to do, Song Qianning wandered around the market, bought an abandoned net from a vendor for a penny, made a simple fishing net, and went straight to the river.
There is a river not far from the market. There are many fish in the river, and many fishermen usually fish here.
When Song Qianning arrived at the riverside, there were many fishermen fishing around. They just glanced at her and then looked away without interest.
After finding a deserted place, Song Qianning put the fishing net into the river and attached magic to the fishing net.
Many fish were attracted by the magic power of the fishing net and rushed into the net.
Feeling the fishing net sinking, Song Qianning picked up the net and saw a large number of fish jumping in the net, all of which were quite heavy.
Some fishermen noticed the movement here and immediately widened their eyes.
Looking at the densely packed fish in Song Qianning's fishing net and then looking at their own empty fishing nets, the fishermen felt so jealous that they wished they could turn all her fish into their own.
A sarcastic sneer sounded: "Oh, I thought it was some shameless person who caught so many fish in one go and didn't even think of leaving some for the others."
Once there is one, there will be two, and the mocking sounds will come one after another.
Faced with the sarcastic remarks from the surrounding fishermen, Song Qianning ignored them and just rolled her eyes silently.
There were also some petty people who, seeing that they were being ignored, said unhappily: "Little girl, you can't just think about yourself and ignore others. You caught so many fish today, you should at least pay some fishing fee."
As soon as these words were spoken, they actually won a lot of responses. Those who were just making sarcastic remarks asked Song Qianning to give them money for fishing.
"Fishing fee?" Song Qianning clasped her hands together and looked at everyone in surprise: "Why do we have to pay for fishing?"
"Of course it's because you caught fish here. You have to pay for fishing. That's the rule."
Nodding as if she understood, Song Qianning asked again, "I'd like to ask, who is the owner of this river, and when were the rules established?"
"Why do I have to pay the fishing fee alone? You don't have to pay it? Who do you pay it to?"
The fisherman who first asked Song Qianning to pay the fishing fee said arrogantly: "Of course the money should be paid to us."
"Yes, we have been fishing here for so long, this river should belong to us."
"They're catching fish in our territory, but they don't even want to pay us for it. How can such a good thing happen?"
"Little girl, if you don't pay us for fishing, don't blame us for being rude to you."
With a click of the tongue, the smile on Song Qianning's face suddenly turned cold: "I won't pay the money today."
Her gaze lingered over the faces of the fishermen, and her sarcasm intensified. "You're picking on the weak, are you? Do you really think I'm easy to bully?"
He wants to extort money from Fairy Yuji. He is really like a birthday star who wants to hang himself because his life is too long.
The fishermen, whose little thoughts were exposed, turned pale and pale, and glared at Song Qianning.
Pretending not to notice everyone's gaze, Song Qianning said slowly, "Do you know why I can catch so many fish? Because the river fish won't take your hooks, they only want to take my fishing net."
"Pah, what do you know about fishing as a little girl? It's just goddamn luck that I caught so many fish."
"The entire river is our territory. We've been fishing here for so many years. If a fish bites, it's ours."
"You only caught a few fish, but you really think you're some big shot?"
"It's hilarious."
Song Qianning, who was besieged by fishermen, remained calm and looked at them as if they were laughing at a joke.
After the fishermen finished speaking, Song Qianning yawned and said leisurely, "Since you don't admit what I said, do you dare to make a bet with me?"
"Whoever of you can catch a fish today will have all the fish in my net given to him."
The fisherman who was about to curse, heard Song Qianning's words, and the words got stuck in his throat before he could say them.
Everyone looked at each other, and greed was evident on many people's faces.
