Chen Mu had no choice but to take out the Wuxin Bell.
hum!
"If it weren't for this thing, it would really take some effort."
Gurgle…Gurgle…Gurgle…
The drunk fish, which had been acting crazy just now, suddenly turned over and floated to the surface of the water.
Chen Mu looked at Wu Xin Ling and liked it more and more: "What a good thing."
"It would be even better if there was a spell."
The five ghosts' black smoke filled the water surface and they quickly collected their fish.
Chen Mu stood up, stretched, and glanced at the experience on the gray wall.
Fire Cloud Curse: 6455/10000/first level;
"Not bad. If nothing goes wrong, I should be able to reach the next level in three months or so." Chen Mu calculated silently.
……
At the dock, sell the catch and return the fishbone boat.
As Chen Mu walked slowly, he looked at the various huge and strange aquatic creatures with envy.
A two-meter-tall, khaki-colored toad caught Chen Mu's attention.
The main problem is that it is too ugly, and only the gold threads on both sides of the eyes look bright.
The two groups were talking beside the toad's corpse.
After a while, a man who looked like a merchant handed a bulging cloth bag to the leading fisherman.
"At least fifty white jade coins!"
"It's almost catching up with my two-month catch." Chen Mu was envious and wondered whether he should catch more miscellaneous fish.
After thinking about it, he shook his head and said, "Forget it. The income of one white jade coin a day is already quite a lot."
Just as we were about to leave, we saw a seventy or eighty meter long ship entering the harbor from the north.
"Old man Hao?"
"Has it been more than a month?" Chen Mu suddenly realized.
He was not in a hurry to leave and waited for the other party to get off the boat.
……
"How come you have time to pick me up?" Mr. Hao looked surprised.
"You are so shameless." Chen Mu smiled.
"Oh, you make money by fishing during the slack season?" Mr. Hao observed for a moment and suddenly realized.
"Isn't this a difficult job?" Old Hao laughed, "I used to do this before."
"Tongtian River is rich in aquatic products, but a single trader can only catch small fish at best."
"You may not earn a single white jade coin even if you work hard all day."
"After a month of exposure to the wind and sun, you can only get four or five white jade coins."
"In reality, the money we earn is only a few dollars more than what we earn from farming."
"Take my advice and just farm honestly." Old Hao advised while puffing on his cigarette.
Can’t earn a white jade coin a day?
Only four or five white jade coins a month?
I can earn thirty white jade coins a month!
"Listen to Mr. Hao!" Chen Mu smiled.

Chapter 251 Not good
"Where's Shang Huan?"
"That fat guy didn't listen to my advice and renewed his fee for another month." Old Hao curled his lips, feeling very disappointed: "He hasn't even mastered the secret method yet. It's a waste of money for him to stay in the dojo for a year!"
"Maybe you can master it." Chen Mu smiled.
I don’t know if it’s because the distance is too far or if there are special restrictions blocking the Senate.
The same heart can be connected through synaesthesia, but the information obtained is always vague.
"Never mind him, let's go back to farming and save money, and then practice again next year." Old Hao waved his hand with a calm look on his face.
"You have a really good attitude. Even at your age, you are not discouraged by failure and can muster up the courage to fight again. That's awesome!" Chen Mu gave a thumbs up in admiration.
"If you don't know how to speak, then don't speak!" Old Hao rolled his eyes in annoyance.
"I'm young and I have plenty of time. Why should I be discouraged?"
Chen Mu: “…”
Am I judging people by their appearance again?
Fine……
Although this old man has lived for more than sixty years, who can let him live another sixty years?
The age is indeed... not that old.
……
The sun rises and the moon sets, time passes.
One month later, Xinyou District, Lu Ku’s residence.
"Another one is missing?" Lu Ku frowned.
"This is the third one." Yulin said in a muffled voice.
“The people we picked are really capable.”
"Once they are given enough benefits, they are more active than anyone else."
"And he was well-informed and could always find someone good at catching small fish. He used both soft and hard tactics, coercion and inducement, and managed to attract more than 20 people."
"But for some reason, they always disappear inexplicably."
"Someone is looking for trouble?!" Ai Ji asked fiercely.
"It shouldn't be. Those guys at the dock are only eyeing the materials of the exotic beasts and don't care about the profits from the small fry." Wu Ruo said with narrowed eyes.
"Run away?" Xu Rao's face was gloomy.
"Impossible." Yulin shook his head. "If they help us work, they can earn five times more in a month. Will they run away?"
Everyone couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
So what's going on?
"Will it be..." Shi Xian frowned and suddenly spoke.
Several people couldn't help but look over.
"What have you thought of?" Ai Ji looked expectant.
Shi Xian said seriously: "Will he fall into the water and drown?"
Ai Ji: “…”
"You might as well say they were eaten by fish!" Ai Ji rolled his eyes: "At least this makes sense."
"That makes sense!" Shi Xian looked at Ai Ji with admiration.
Everyone: “…” We shouldn’t have counted on this confused guy!
"Let those people stop." Lu Ku rubbed his temple.
I always feel like things have been going badly lately, and I don’t know what ghosts and gods I have offended…
……
Tongtian River, an unnamed river bay.
A sturdy man with a scar on his face, accompanied by two equally burly men, drove the fishbone boat straight towards Chen Mu's fishbone boat.
Then it stopped suddenly when it was about to hit.
The turbulent water caused Chen Mu's boat to sway from side to side.
The three men laughed and looked at Chen Mu with a joking expression.
"Chen Mu?" the scarred leader asked in an unpleasant voice.
"伱......"
"I gambled with you guys last night and lost everything." Chen Mu had a blank expression on his face.
Scarface was stunned: "Oh, yes!".
"you……"
"I can't pay the money back, so I sold myself to you and have to work for you for two and a half years." Chen Mu sighed.
"Wait a minute." Scarface opened the scroll in his hand: "Two years and six months will be enough."
Chen Mu rolled his eyes.
What the fuck is the difference!
"Are you from the Wushan Seven Brothers?"
Good guy, you’re afraid of being targeted by me, so you don’t do it yourself and find an agent?
"What the hell are the Seven Wushan Brothers?" Scarface said impatiently, "We are from the Fishermen's Alliance!"
I'm also an Avengers member!
