The boss's smile faded and he returned to his serious expression.
He walked up to the counter, picked up a brush and a piece of paper, and asked, "So, what size fishing boat do you want? Do you need a rest room?"
"Ten meters long, I need a rest room."
He wrote something on the paper, then looked up and asked again, "How many months?"
Lu Jingzhi turned to look at Yan An, "Master, how many months?"
"One month."
The boss chuckled and said, "One month, young man, take care of yourself." After saying that, he thrust his lower body forward a few times...
Lu Jingzhi's mouth twitched, too lazy to say anything vulgar to him, "How much?"
The deposit is one hundred mid-grade spirit stones, and the rental fee is also one hundred. If the boat breaks down, the deposit is not refundable."
"Yeah." He took out two thousand low-grade spirit stones from his storage ring and placed them on his counter.
He handed the lease contract to Lu Jingzhi.
Lu Jingzhi opened it, took a look and confirmed that it was correct, then put it in his pocket.
"Come with me, I'll show you the boat."
He brought his master and apprentice to a small pier a few hundred meters away. Dozens of wooden boats were docked at the pier, and several had been pulled ashore for repairs.
He walked down the wooden stairs and stood next to a small boat on the shore. In the middle of the boat was a small rectangular wooden room, about five meters long, with the bow and stern on both sides.
"Take a look at what you think? If it doesn't work, I'll change the boat for you."
Lu Jingzhi jumped up from the shore and looked carefully at the hull and bottom of the ship. Although it looked a bit worn, it was not damaged.
"Master, is this boat okay?"
Yan An looked indifferent and said, "As long as you think it's good, it's fine."
"No problem, I'll go get some weight first. I wish you all a safe journey." After saying that, he turned and left.
Yan An teleported into the boat, sat at the bow, and looked at the shimmering water.
Lu Jingzhi then returned to the shore and took down the hemp rope tied to the wooden stake. Without the hemp rope to fix it, it drifted in the wind.
He stepped forward with his right foot and jumped onto the boat, causing the wooden boat to shake slightly.
Lu Jingzhi picked up the oar and started rowing to one side. Since the wind was blowing in his favor, rowing did not require much effort.
"What did you say to your mother?" Yan An, who had been silent just now, spoke.
"My mother? What did she say to me?"
"Well, when you were practicing on the rooftop, what did you whisper in her ear?"
"I told her not to worry, I'll take care of it."
Yan An turned to look at him, "No more?"
“No more.”
...
Half an hour later——
Yan An sat by the boat, his feet washed by the cool river water. "I want to eat fish."
"I have some buns in my ring. Let's eat them first." After saying that, he took out a big meat bun from his ring.
"No, I want to eat from the river."
Lu Jingzhi suddenly felt that Yan An was very abnormal and strange. If it was Luo Xue, a foodie, it would be understandable, but according to his understanding, Yan An was not very interested in food. Besides, she was not a willful person.
"Master, if you have anything to say, just tell me."
"I want to eat fish, fresh."
"Am I overthinking this? Does the master really want to eat fish?"
Seeing that he was hesitating and unable to continue, Yan An simply reached out and knocked him down with his mysterious energy.
With a plop.
Lu Jingzhi showed a wet head.
"Go down and catch some fish."
Lu Jingzhi had no choice but to take a deep breath and dive into the water.
He looked up at the little feet dangling on it, and for a moment, he felt playful.
"Since the master took me down the river, I'll take you with me."
He swam to the bottom of the boat, stretched out his right hand to grasp Yan An's white and tender feet, and dragged her unconscious Yan An into the water. Then, underwater, he held her soft and delicate body in his arms...
