Becoming a God Starting from a Water Monkey

The setting sun half fell on the river, and the water sparkled, as if a layer of gold was sprinkled on it, making it hard to open your eyes.

On the empty river, sporadic fishing boats crossed the golden sea with a few fish, shouting and selling big fish for only two cents each.

A passerby hurriedly passed by the river, called the fisherman, talked for a few words, threw down two copper coins, and took a big fish, which was considered a meat dish on New Year's Eve.

The crackling sound of firecrackers came from the end of the long street, suppressing the fisherman's shouting.

The wealthy families lit firecrackers early, and the sound would not stop from sunset to sunrise tomorrow.

Liang Qu tied the boat, picked up the green-backed dragon carp, stepped ashore and ran towards Yang's mansion.

The passerby who bought fish saw the colorful green light of the green-backed dragon carp and silently pinned the big grass carp he had just bought behind him.

It was really a beautiful scene.

Liang Qu looked around, and he could see pavilions and towers everywhere, blocking the clouds in the sky.

The paper flowers for welcoming the spring at the gates of the big houses were all over the ground, and there were few people on the streets.

The respectable restaurants closed early, leaving only the two big red lanterns on the door to make it lively, but the small wine shops were bustling.

This situation was completely different from the original world. At this time in the original world, the restaurant business was bustling, and there would definitely be no closure.

It’s not that they don’t want to make money, but there is no money to make.

The rich people who are willing to go to the restaurant have already huddled at home, set up a grand banquet, and reunited with their families.

Just like the Yang Mansion.

Liang Qu felt the warmth as soon as he entered the mansion. Seven or eight maids shuttled in the courtyard, very busy.

This is what can be seen, and there are many rough women and cooks busy in places that cannot be seen.

The founding emperor of the Dashun Dynasty stipulated that ordinary people were forbidden to keep private slaves, and many wealthy people had to adopt slaves in the form of goddaughters and godsons.

Ordinary wealthy businessmen, such as Zhao Hongyuan and Xue Chengquan, either hired slaves without a contract of sale, or dared not call them masters in front of outsiders, which was an act of usurpation.

Yang Dongxiong was not an ordinary person, he was a real master!

This is a real man, with great style!

"You are finally here, everyone is here, why are you so late?" Xiang Changsong at the door saw Liang Qu and hurriedly called him over, and only when he got closer did he realize the difference, "Wait, what are you holding in your hand?"

"Good stuff!"

Liang Qu said, and ran into the hall excitedly, saw Yang Dongxiong and Xu, and held up the big carp in his hand.

"Master, Master's wife, look, I went back to Yixing today and bought a good thing!"

"Oh, what good stuff?"

"What good stuff makes Junior Brother so happy?"

Everyone looked curiously at the sound.

Although the internal organs of the green-backed dragon carp were dug out, its appearance was intact. Yang Dongxiong recognized it at a glance.

"What a big green-backed dragon carp!"

He compared it with Changsong: "It's so big, it must be 15 pounds, right?"

"16 pounds and 8 ounces!" Liang Qu said happily, "It was just caught from the river, it's fresh, and it's New Year's Eve today, so I brought it here for everyone to eat together and ask for good luck!"

Hu Qi exclaimed: "I have only seen green-backed dragon carp in books, and have never eaten it. Today, my junior brother caught up with it."

Xu Zishuai was beaming with joy: "Master, it's a good omen! Carp has a good meaning, and precious carp is even better!"

"Good luck! It's really a good luck!"

"Hahaha, let us also get some good luck!"

"The big back is so beautiful, it looks green and colorful."

The other senior brothers cheered.

Yang Dongxiong laughed heartily: "Xiao Jiu's fate is that both the positive and negative seals belong to water, and he has a deep blessing near water. Now I see that it is true.

Green-backed dragon carp is rare to see, and there are very few of them that weigh 15 jin. If they were placed in the capital, there might be a rich man who could bid a hundred gold!"

Xu Zishuai wondered: "A hundred gold for a fish? Isn't that a sucker? I remember that the value of a green-backed dragon carp is only two or three taels per jin of meat, right?"

"You can't say that. Let alone a treasure fish, even ordinary golden carp, there are many people scrambling for it. They are different from us. They just like this."

Cao Rang said: "It's still too much money, why not give it all to me."

"It's not dark yet, are you dreaming here?"

After listening to the words of the brothers, Liang Qu realized that he only remembered what was written in the book and forgot to combine it with reality.

The actual value of a green-backed dragon carp is not that high. From the perspective of the warrior corner, it is only about three taels of silver per jin of meat. There are many treasure fish with better effects than it.

But on special days like the Chinese New Year, there must be a premium.

The richer you are, the more you believe in luck, and the more you are willing to spend money on it. It is not uncommon to buy ten taels of fish per pound.

Who doesn't want to buy it back for good luck?

Some people even buy it back and don't want to eat it, and raise it as an ornamental fish, so that the spirituality gradually disappears.

"Today is really a lively day, and all good things have happened." Xu waved her sleeves, "Put the fish down quickly and let the servants handle it. We can eat in half an hour. Sit down and chat with me."

"Okay, Master's wife."

Liang Qu responded, handed the green-backed dragon carp to the servant beside him, and sat with everyone.

Except for the eldest brother, all the other brothers were present.

It's not that the family situation of other brothers is the same as Liang Qu. As far as he knows, among all the brothers, only Brother Xu is in a similar situation to himself.

The reason why they all come here to eat during the Chinese New Year is very simple.

Half an hour later, exquisite dishes were served.

Braised beef, braised brocade deer, stir-fried mountain snake, roasted yellow croaker

Of course, there was also the steamed green-backed dragon carp that Liang Qu sent.

Every dish is spiritual meat!

Obviously, you have to come here. How can you eat these good things at home?

The improvement of strength is secondary. The main thing is that there are too many dishes, and the combination is full of flavor.

There are only a few opportunities to enjoy a good meal in a year, and you can't eat it outside.

Fragrant.

Really fragrant.

Liang Qu felt full after eating a few bites of meat, and his face was slightly red. In addition to the lack of water essence, it brought full blood and energy.

Xu Zishuai picked up a piece of fish meat and put it in his mouth. It was very sweet and exclaimed: "This green-backed dragon carp is good, much better than red blood perch!"

"Xiaojiu, eat more. This fish is brought by you. The fish belly is for you."

"Thank you, Master's wife."

Liang Qu stood up and took a thick chopstick of fish belly.

"Master's wife, I want it too!" Xu Zishuai picked up the bowl and stretched it over, but was hit back by Xu's chopsticks.

"Xiaojiu didn't come here empty-handed, unlike you, so shameless? You only know how to open your mouth?"

"Master's wife, why are you partial to one over the other? I'm going to make a scene, I really am going to make a scene."

"Go ahead, make a scene, the louder the better, so I don't have to ask people to set off firecrackers."

"Okay, don't just focus on eating, I'll say a few words."

Yang Dongxiong drank a glass of wine and interrupted everyone's conversation.

Everyone put down their chopsticks and listened carefully.

"Like in previous years, I'll give you a few tests to prevent you from being too lazy."

"Yu Dun, you are now..."

"Lu Gang, within a year, I want you to enter the middle realm of wolf smoke"

Yang Dongxiong called all the senior brothers one by one, and the senior brothers stood up and agreed.

Liang Qu had a sense of déjà vu when the company issued a task target. When it was almost his turn, he straightened his back and tilted his ears.

"Xiang Changsong, Liang Qu, you two entered the martial arts world the latest, and you have the most room for improvement. I will have higher requirements for you."

"Within the next year, Xiang Changsong, you will become a true martial artist, or even a galloping martial artist. Can you do it?"

Xiang Changsong nodded, indicating that he would practice diligently and never disappoint his master's expectations.

"Liang Qu, you have just completed a season of martial arts training. I only ask you to break through the three levels by this time next year. Can you do it?"

Liang Qu stood up and clasped his fists: "Master, don't worry, I have the confidence to become a martial artist within a year!"

"Oh? Become a martial artist within a year?"

Yang Dongxiong was a little surprised.

The rest of the brothers looked at him sideways.

Liang Qu continued: "I can break through the flesh level again within half a month, and I have a full year left. I have the confidence to break through the remaining two levels."

"So fast?" Xiang Changsong blurted out.

Break through two levels in half a month?

What speed is this?

Everyone compared it silently and found that they had never been so fast at the beginning.

Lu Gang seemed to be thinking: "Junior brother has an extraordinary fate, so it is normal that he is making extraordinary progress."

After hearing what Lu Gang said, everyone remembered Liang Qu's fate, and inexplicably felt that it was reasonable.

The long dragon crossing the river is no less than the owl taking food, so it seems that it is not right to make faster progress?

Bad things, the pressure is on me.

Xiang Changsong wiped his forehead and felt that the fire in the heater was too big today, and it was strangely hot.

Yang Dongxiong said: "Okay, since you have this confidence, it is naturally a good thing! Let's raise our glasses!"

Everyone raised their hands together.

"May the new year be better than the old year, and everything will go smoothly and without worries, and everyone will get what they want!"

"May the new year be better than the old year, and everything will go smoothly and without worries, and everyone will get what they want!"
