Becoming a God Starting from a Water Monkey

Time flies, and it is almost noon.

The master of Langyunlou reported that all the preliminary work has been completed, and all the things that need to be packaged have been packaged and all the things that need to be changed have been changed. Then Fan Xinglai took the address book given by Liang Qu and took a cart to the county town to pick up people one by one.

Liang Qu gave instructions in the kitchen and returned to the pond to wait.

Half an hour ago, Liang Qu tried his best to persuade the old toad to agree to give another treasure fish to support the three thousand miles of lotus hegemony.

Unexpectedly, the old toad ate everything and left a pile of empty cages. He disappeared when the banquet was about to start.

"Will he not stand you up?"

Fortunately, when Liang Qu was muttering, two bubbles floated out of the pond and burst into water.

In an instant, water splashed everywhere.

The old toad broke through the water surface, bringing a light rain, and successfully watered the flowerbed before the banquet.

The black dragon, who was digging the soil to bury the crab shell, felt a chill all over his body. He grumbled twice, ran to the feet of the old toad, shook his hair, shook off the water droplets, and then ran away immediately.

The old toad didn't care. He puffed his cheeks and spit out a big fish that jumped up and down, shouting loudly.

"Seven-color rainbow! Boy, a good treasure fish!"

The big beaver and other beasts cast their eyes on him. Liang Qu remained calm, bent down and pinched the fish's tail, feeling the strength of the treasure fish's struggle.

It's really not bad, at least the same level as last time!

The previous words were not in vain!

However... in addition to being happy, Liang Qu keenly discovered that the treasure fish given by the old toad were different from the three last time.

The fish scales were fine and colorful, and the tail was like a goldfish, which was ethereal and had never been seen before.

How many treasure fish did the old toad hide at home?

Four treasure fish, four varieties?

It's not easy to find a big treasure fish worth thousands of essences. The old toad definitely keeps a lot of them at home.

But the treasure fish will lose their spirituality if they are kept in captivity for a long time. Therefore, the treasure fish in the old toad's home are in a large dynamic balance, so the number of treasure fish handled will be even more terrifying...

I just left for so long, wouldn't he be picky at home?

Liang Qu narrowed his eyes slightly.

The old toad is so stingy, and the longer you get along with him, the deeper you feel.

As the only multi-treasure toad that has become a demon in the entire Daze, it is definitely not as simple as it seems.

I must let the fat catfish visit the old toad's house someday to find out...

"Look at this color, look at this tail, how beautiful, what a good treasure fish, if it weren't for the frog clan..."

The old toad was boasting about how rare his treasure fish was, how much he had paid for the frog clan, and that without it, the frog elder, there would be no frog clan today, and so on. As he spoke, he stopped talking.

The noise suddenly disappeared, and Liang Qu shifted his gaze from the treasure fish: "Mr. Frog?"

The old toad touched his head and did not answer. He suddenly felt a chill on his back and a palpitation in his heart.

Looking around.

It was calm, those who worked were working, and those who basked in the sun were basking in the sun.

It was not the right frog. I had just used the tortoise shell to calculate my fortune last month. All six copper coins were correct, not one was reversed.

If it was placed on another frog, it would be a great fortune to celebrate, but if it was placed on me, it would mean that my fortune was very normal.

How strange.

The old toad hesitated for a while and shuddered.

It is not advisable to stay here for long!

There are too many dangers on land, and there are always unruly people who want to trick the frog!

The old toad was terrified and waved his paws: "Nothing, nothing, you guys work hard. When the lotus flowers bloom all over the 3,000-mile marsh in the future, the frog tribe will reward the meritorious officials. I have something to do in my cave, so I'll leave first."

After that, the old toad left the treasure fish behind, jumped into the pond, and left in a hurry.

Liang Qu looked at the back and fell into silence.

"You don't feel anything, do you?"

...

At noon.

The hall was all tidied up, Liang Qu placed the treasure fish, and Ran Zhongshi took the lead to visit.

A worker, a working soul, compared to Liang Qu who was often absent from work, Ran Zhongshi can be said to be conscientious and hardworking. He must go to the office every day and return in the evening, and today is no exception.

When Fan Xinglai went to greet him, Ran Zhongshi was handling official business in the government office.

Being the closest, he will naturally arrive the fastest.

The two chatted for a few words and talked about the house and courtyard, and Liang Qu invited them to sit down.

Not long after, Xiang Fangsu and Ke Wenbin came to the door together, and he rushed to the front door again.

Two groups of people in a row were colleagues, which was obviously not a coincidence.

Colleagues and teachers should all be invited, but the two parties have limited acquaintance, so they can't let go when they get together.

At least it was like this when Liang Qu himself encountered a banquet. There were two tables in total, and half of the people were unfamiliar. How awkward.

There were a lot of crabs at home, including water beasts and fishing pens, so they simply arranged two meals at noon and in the evening, so that everyone could enjoy themselves.

Fan Xinglai led two horses away and led the other party into the courtyard.

As soon as he entered the door, Xiang Fangsu looked around: "I saw it clearly outside, the yard is full of three entrances, Ah Shui lives happily."

Ke Wenbin smiled and said: "I'm afraid your house is the largest house in the whole Yixing Town?"

Everyone came from the imperial capital, and there was no real estate in the local area, so basically they chose to buy it.

But it was too big and empty. Most of the houses bought were one- and two-story houses, which were far less spacious than Liang's.

Liang Qu smiled and said, "It was all the villagers who came to pay their respects."

Ke Wenbin grinned, "Why didn't anyone come to pay their respects to me?"

"Speaking of which, today is the first time we've been to your house." Xiang Fangsu rubbed his hands, walked around the screen wall, and was surprised to see the pile of autumn crabs, "Huh, so many crabs? Zhongshi, when did you come?"

"Half an hour ago, not much earlier, come, sit down and eat."

Ran Zhongshi picked up the crab roe and dipped it in ginger vinegar. There were already two empty shells next to it.

Xiang Fangsu came forward, took out a few crabs and weighed them in his hand: "They are all big crabs with upwards of seven taels!"

"I can't lie to you. I keep my word. Besides, what's so delicious about the small ones? Let's just treat it as a small gathering. There are no rules. Let's eat freely."

"Hehe, I like it!"

The two of them smelled the fragrance and worked up their appetites. Without waiting for the others, they sat down to open the crabs with Ran Zhongshi.

During small gatherings on weekdays, when it’s time for dinner, no matter who is not here, we should eat and drink.

After the three people, Ran Ying, Bai Yinbin, Ren Yipeng and others arrived one after another and gathered around the long table. Xu Yuelong was busy with official duties, and spent many nights.

Unlike Xiang Fangsu and others who went to Jiangling County for fun and returned late, Xu Yuelong just came back from Huazhu County the day before yesterday and has always had follow-up matters to deal with.

As soon as he walked in, he rolled up his sleeves and said, "Ah Shui, where is the biggest crab?"

"Already prepared!"

Liang Qu came to the kitchen and took out a large tray from the helper. There were only two crabs in it, one male and one female, but they were surprisingly big.

"A pound of male crabs costs five cents, and a pound of female crabs costs nine taels and three cents! I specially picked them out from the pile of crabs one by one!"

Ke Wenbin jumped up from the arhat bed: "Oh my god, Ah Shui, are you trying to please your boss like this?"

Xiang Fangsu was heartbroken: "Flattery! Too flattering!"

"Shit! As promised before, Brother Yue Long will help me borrow the merit in advance, and the biggest crab will belong to him!"

"Borrow the great work in advance? Can I borrow this thing?" Bai Yinbin put down the crab legs, "I want to borrow one too!"

"Go away." Xu Yuelong consciously sat in the middle and pushed away Bai Yinbin who was leaning towards his face. "The one Ah Shui borrowed in advance is the one for the performance appraisal at the end of the year. I won't say whether it can be successful or not. If you have it, just borrow it? Who has it? I will help you too. He makes a note!"

Ke Wenbin was shocked: "Damn it, can it still be like this?"

The performance appraisal is all for officials at the same level. Most of the children of the aristocratic families are ranked at the seventh rank or above, and there are many masters. It is completely different from Liang Qu's stage. There is really no guarantee that these people will get to the top of the appraisal.

"If I had known earlier, I should have asked my dad to get me a Hebo Dangdang!"

"Bah, a master of Wolf Smoke becomes He Bo, aren't you ashamed?"

The crowd was noisy.

As Xu Yuelong sat down, Liang Qu informed, and the hot dishes in the kitchen were brought out one after another.

Crab roe buns, crab roe noodles, crab roe rice, orange... In addition, there are some seasonal fresh food to adjust the taste.

Most of the people present were from the imperial capital. It was the first time they ate crabs and drank rice wine so happily. The atmosphere of the banquet quickly increased and it was so lively.

Wulong lowered his head and shuttled under the table, his tail swaying out of the afterimage.

Ran Ying didn't eat it herself, but peeled off the shell and fed it bit by bit to the black dog.

Xu Yuelong rambled on a lot, his mouth was bald, and he even mentioned the fight he had with Wei Lin in Huazhu County.

Everyone craned their necks.

"Who loses and who wins?"

"Ahem, why are you talking so much? Let's eat and eat. Oh yes, Ah Shui, we are going to set up the shipyard. You will be busy soon."

"What shipyard?"

"Zhongshi, please explain."

Ran Zhongshi spat out the crab shell fragments: "Hebo has been in Pingyang County for a full year and is familiar with all aspects. As a result, we have to start developing Daze. The first step is to form a fleet to fish for treasure fish in deep water areas.

It’s not too complicated to say, it’s probably because we create people and things…”

After some introduction, Liang Qu suddenly understood.

It roughly means that the river bank will establish another "company". At a fixed time every month, it will organize a fleet to enter the deep water area of ​​​​Daze, catch precious fish, and then bring it back to the shore for sale.

Alleviating huge financial pressure while promoting the progress of low-level warriors.

Of course, manpower is needed to build a fleet. There are many dangers in deep water, including escorting, avoiding water monsters, and a series of other issues, so people need to lead the team.

"Ah Shui, with your strength, you may need to receive it once a month! Don't worry, it's not for nothing, the leading martial artist will get bonuses!"
