Chapter 13: Great Harvest (New Book Looking for Sponsorship!)
Chapter 13 Great Harvest
“Dang…dang…”
The knocking sounds continued, but the fishermen in charge of the knocking were already a little absent-minded.
The voice was powerful and strong at the beginning, but now it has become soft and feels without any strength, probably because it has lost its energy.
"Keep up the good work! Everyone can get five copper coins when they go back!" Bruno cheered on.
After hearing this, the fishermen's enthusiasm increased significantly.
After all...even though it was a stupid thing to do, you could earn a lot of money!
“Dang…dang…”
The fishermen beat the rhythm under the command of L'Hôpital and waved their mallets to the sound of hammering. At this moment, they no longer cared about the eyes of others or what the lord wanted to do. They were immersed in the rhythmic sound of hammering and the five copper coins promised by the lord.
Looking at the demons dancing wildly in front of him, Bruno was really impatient. After all... he had placed high hopes on this method...
So he grabbed the mallet from a fisherman and started beating the fish himself...
“Dang! Dang!”
Although the fishermen around still don't know what this eccentric lord wants to do, they knock even harder. This is like being silly together with the noble lord. They can show off to others when they go back.
Gradually, Bruno felt some pain in his wrist, but he still persisted.
He wanted to catch fish! He needed food! After knocking for an unknown amount of time, Bruno felt that the originally azure water gradually became darker, as if something was gathering around the boat.
"Bang..."
Suddenly there was a muffled sound from the bottom of the boat.
The sailors and fishermen on the boat were startled and seemed a little panicked.
"Did it hit a reef? It couldn't have hit a reef..." someone shouted in horror.
For a moment, the atmosphere on the ship became tense.
"The fish... is coming..."
Bruno's eyes were fixed on the sea, but at this moment, an unconcealable smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
This was the result he had been waiting for for a long time.
"Master...what should we do? Once we hit a reef, it will usually be a tragedy that the ship is destroyed and people die...I can't even swim..." L'Obida, who was immersed in the fear of "hitting a reef", wailed at the side.
"Stop making noise, look at what's in the sea." Bruno interrupted L'Hôpital's chatter rudely and curled his lips towards the sea.
"Ah? What else could be in the sea water...Oh my God!" L'Hôpital stopped talking abruptly before he could finish his words.
I saw countless big fish leaning against each other and gathering around the fishing boat.
L'Obida felt like he was suffocating. There were so many fish in the sea... These were all living food! The fishermen on the boat also discovered this amazing scene at this time. I don't know who was the first to shout, and everyone on the boat gradually quieted down...
"The fish are coming! The fish are really coming! Everyone hurry up and catch the fish!"
With a loud shout, everyone on the boat came back to their senses at this moment, staring at the crowded fish in the sea with wide eyes...
More people rubbed their eyes hard, with disbelief written all over their faces.
How could this be? This... is a gift from the gods!
At this moment, the fishermen and sailors on the boat seemed to realize something...
It turned out that... this "dangdangdang" knocking sound could actually summon such a miracle? This was simply unheard of! For a moment, the way they looked at Bruno changed.
As expected, the noble master knows a lot...
L'Obida was also stunned at this moment. In fact, in his original impression, his master was just a dissolute nobleman who was unlearned and unskilled. He never expected that his master actually had such profound knowledge and wisdom that ordinary people could not reach...
No wonder Shabi kept saying that the master was a wise man. I thought he was just saying it casually, but I didn't expect it to be true...
After the shock, there was crazy work.
The fishermen and sailors felt as if they were dreaming. Just by knocking on the side of the boat, they attracted so many big fish. This was something they could not even imagine in the past.
After all, for most fishermen in this world, how many fish they can catch with one net depends almost entirely on luck, that is, they rely on the weather.
And today, Bruno opened a new door for them. Although they were of humble status, they were not stupid. Since they could attract big fish by knocking, then in the future... wouldn't they be able to have enough food to eat?
Now they can fill their stomachs, and the fishermen work harder at the thought that they may have the possibility of living such a luxurious life.
The fishermen cast their nets with abandon. They didn't have to bother choosing a spot. With just one cast, they would catch a ton of fish, all big ones.
Bruno felt his heart pounding as he watched net after net of fish being scooped up and piled haphazardly on the deck.
With this large amount of fish and the seaweed picked by the serfs on the seashore, the food problem has been largely solved. Only a small amount of wheat flour and the like need to be purchased, which should be enough for the workers who are building the wonder.
Thinking of this, Bruno couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Fish out of water were flapping their wings on the deck, and the fishy smell filled the air of the fishing boat, but the fishermen didn't care about it. At this moment, they were just like tools, repeating the tasks of casting and collecting nets again and again.
Sweat flowed down their wrinkled cheeks, but they stubbornly repeated the action of casting the net with their sore hands. So many fish not only excited Bruno, but also made them happy.
At this moment... they seemed to see the future.
Time passed minute by minute, and no one knew how long it had passed before the fishing boat was almost filled with fish. The fishermen leaned contentedly on the "hill" of fish in the middle of the deck, feeling very at ease.
The fish in the sea are still thrashing, but the fishing boat is already fully loaded, and now it’s time to return…
The fishermen dragged their tired bodies to stand by the boat, looking at the school of fish that were gradually left behind, their eyes full of reluctance to leave.
This was a great harvest! An inspiring harvest! Bruno believed that after this incident, the resistance he faced in building the Hanging Garden would be much smaller. After all... the most critical food problem had been successfully solved.
All he had to do was solve the funding problem, and the construction of the sky garden would begin soon...
When Bruno thought of the rewards promised by the system, his heart began to beat fast. He hoped that the system would not let him down...
The new author is rolling on the ground asking for recommendations!
