Chapter 390 Ice Fishing
At night, Zhou Ziwen rarely slept.
He waited until twelve o'clock, and the sixth idle position he had been looking forward to finally opened.
Zhou Ziwen held Chen Qiaoyi in his left hand and Chen Shiying in his right hand, thinking about the arrangement of the sixth AFK position in his mind.
Bajiquan LV9 (255/900)
【Medical Skills Level 1 (972/1000)】
[Dog Training Level 5 (281/500)]
【Carpentry Level 4 (392/400)】
【Archery LV2(9/200)】
…
Among the five skills currently idle, the carpentry skill is about to be upgraded, and he plans to temporarily take it off the shelves after the upgrade.
This skill is sufficient, there is no need to upgrade it to a higher level.
Of course, you can still hang up again when there are more idle slots in the future.
He has a little obsessive-compulsive disorder. When he sees the proficiency of a player, he wants to try his best.
Looking at the vacant sixth AFK position, Zhou Ziwen didn't think much about it. He just put his shooting skills into AFK.
This skill is not very useful in normal times, but it is very useful at critical moments, especially in saving lives. The better his marksmanship, the more confident he will be.
After all, this era is not very safe, especially in places like the countryside, where you never know when you might need a gun.
Not to mention the distant past, Wu Dagang had told him before that two villages had even taken out guns in order to fight for water.
If both sides hadn't had some common sense, a fight might have broken out.
"sleep."
After idling his shooting skills, Zhou Ziwen closed the AFK panel and fell asleep with his girlfriends on both sides.
The next morning, Zhou Ziwen slept in. When he woke up from the kang, the Chen sisters were nowhere to be seen.
After waking up, he felt the extra skill insights in his mind, and then opened the auto-play panel.
Bajiquan LV9 (263/900)
【Medical Skills Level 1 (980/1000)】
[Dog Training Level 5 (289/500)]
【Carpentry LV5 (0/500)】
Archery LV2 (17/200)
In the panel, the carpentry skill has reached level five.
This level is a little better than those old masters who specialize in this.
Take Liang Laowu from the village for example. He has been working as a carpenter all his life, but he is only at level four, close to level five.
After exceeding level five, the skill level will be qualitatively improved. If the level four is that of a master, then the level five will start to develop towards art.
At this time, the things made have a little artistic feel.
The reason I originally learned this skill of hanging up was to make the house more beautiful.
Now that my skills have reached level five, I can fully meet this requirement.
With a thought, Zhou Ziwen took down his carpentry skills and put his cooking skills on hold.
He doesn't use this skill very often, but it is very useful.
At least he can show off his skills in front of Chen Shiying.
During this period, he was also taking on jobs to earn extra money. Although the weather was too cold during this period, he did not receive many jobs. However, several companies had already made arrangements with him in advance that after the Chinese New Year, he would help them organize banquets.
By now, his worth has become quite good. He can earn as little as three dollars and as much as five dollars for hosting a banquet.
For example, last time when Zhang Laosan from the next village got married, he not only earned a big unity, but also a big elbow.
Zhou Ziwen likes this kind of generous boss.
"Brother Ziwen, are you awake? Get up and eat the dumplings."
Just as Zhou Ziwen had tidied up the hanging panel and was about to get up from the kang, Chen Qiaoyi, wearing a flowery cotton jacket, came running in.
"Oh? Are we having tangyuan today?"
"Yes, there are not only dumplings, but also fried eggs!"
"Aren't tangyuan eaten during the Spring Festival? Today is only the 29th, right?"
"Hehe, we can eat in advance!"
Chen Qiaoyi was smiling, and one could tell from her expression that she was craving for food and had specially asked Chen Shiying to make it.
"Haha, you can eat it anytime."
Zhou Ziwen scratched her nose amusingly and said lovingly.
"Brother Ziwen, hurry up, or the dumplings will get cold." Chen Qiaoyi hugged his arm and urged him happily.
This girl is a natural happy person. She seems to have no worries and is happy every day.
"good."
Zhou Ziwen put on his clothes swiftly and went to the kitchen.
As soon as I entered the kitchen, I saw big, round dumplings rolling in the pot. On the stove, Chen Shiying had already placed the bowls and was adding soup into them.
"Ziwen, there's hot water in the pot, wash your face first!"
Seeing Zhou Ziwen come in, Chen Shiying spoke.
"I'll do it, I'll do it, Brother Ziwen, I'll help you fetch water." Chen Qiaoyi said actively.
"good."
Zhou Ziwen nodded with a smile and waited for his wife to help him fetch water.
After washing up, the dumplings in the pot were cooked.
Chen Qiaoyi had already brought his portion to the bedroom.
This thoughtful side warmed Zhou Ziwen's heart.
Unconsciously, he seemed to have gotten used to living with the Chen sisters.
Although they had only lived together for a few short months, it felt to him as if several years had passed.
After eating the sweet dumplings, Zhou Ziwen relaxed.
With nothing to do, he decided to go fishing in the river.
As the saying goes, there will be surplus every year, so we can’t celebrate the New Year without fish.
The Chen sisters stayed at home. They had a lot of things to do and were busy making glutinous rice cakes today.
Carrying fishing tools, Zhou Ziwen came to the river not far from his home.
The river near my home is not very fast and is now frozen.
If you want to fish, you need to break the ice first.
Zhou Ziwen didn't mind the trouble. He took out a shovel and started digging on the river surface very quickly.
He was very strong and in a short while he knocked a hole as big as a water tank in it.
After making a good nest with his secret bait, Zhou Ziwen began to fish leisurely.
Because he hasn't been fishing much recently, his fishing skills are still at level three.
Fishing Level 3 (258/300)
But he no longer relies on fishing to solve the problem of eating meat.
For him now, fishing is just a form of leisure and entertainment.
After fishing outside for a while, Zhou Ziwen felt a little uncomfortable when the cold wind blew.
He needs to circulate his qi and blood to maintain body heat.
But these calories will consume the body's energy, and in short, you will get hungry quickly.
"It seems ice fishing isn't so fun after all!"
Zhou Ziwen sighed.
In his previous life, he had seen videos of ice fishing, and people there had prepared their tools very well.
Tents, stoves, beds, quilts...
Everything you need to eat and use, both necessary and unnecessary, is prepared.
It's nothing like what he is doing now, staying alone on the freezing ice, which is almost like torture.
Fortunately, his fishing skills were pretty good. After a while, he attracted some fish in the river and caught one from time to time.
Especially a carp weighing more than three kilograms, which made him overjoyed.
Eating carp during the Chinese New Year has good meaning.
The homonym of carp is "li", and the homonym of crucian carp is "ji".
Eating carp and crucian carp represents good luck in the new year.
This was his first time celebrating the New Year in this era, and he wanted a good omen.
