The youth in the distance watched as the monster disappeared into the darkness. After sharing a glance, they ran over to Qin Zhiyu.
“Brother Qin! Are you okay?”
“Brother Qin! The monster’s gone. Are you alright?”
“Ahh! F*ck off! I can’t feel my leg! Did it bite off my leg?” Qin Zhiyu scread in agony from where he laid, face filled with panic.
“Brother Qin, it’s still there. There’s just so blood! You’ll be fine. We’ll take you to the hospital right now!”
So of the fishern walked over hesitantly, investigating the screams. They watched as a group of young n carried a figure into the distance and heard the man cursing from ti to ti.
“Is that him? Did he get punished again?” So of the fishern wondered triumphantly before returning to their beds and hos.
“Hehe!” Under Chu Xian’s control, the Mo-Crocodile returned to the fish farm.
He didn’t make the Mo-Crocodile kill Qin Zhiyu because it was too ruthless, and he didn’t want to attract too much attention. If soone died, the police would get involved, and so hunters might even get called over to kill the dangerous croc. None of this would benefit Chu Xian.
“The Mo-crocodile crunched his thigh bone, and Zhiyu should never recover fully. He might even be crippled. This was just a warning – if he ever dares co over again, the consequences won’t be so light next ti!” Chu Xian thought with a cold sneer before he turned over and went back to sleep.
The next morning, Chu Xian left his parent’s place after breakfast. Around 1 pm, he arrived at Gu Wu Street, munching on one of the dried grenadier anchovies from the two bags he brought back with him.
Chu Xian’s mother insisted that he bring back so dried fish for her daughter-in-law, Xiao Ying, and Chu Xian accepted with a laugh as he took back more than one kg of dried fish.
Inside the shop, Chu Xian was surprised to see two people eating. He paused for a mont when he saw the woman in white clothes before walking over.
“Pupu, why are you eating so late?”
“Ah! Brother, you’re back! There were a lot of custors today, so I’m eating a little later than usual,” Feng Pupu answered cheerfully, turning around with so surprise. She looked up at Chu Xian with a cute, big-eyed gaze.
“En, en.” Chu Xian nodded. He turned to Tang Qiung and greeted her with a smile. “Hello!”
“En. It’s alright if I eat here, right?” Tang Qiung replied, smiling lightly.
“Haha, of course, you’re very welco!” Chu Xian smiled.
“En. Pupu’s just been sitting in the shop by herself every day and I have nothing to do at noon, so I ca over to play.”
“Big Sis Qiung is a super nice person and also really pretty!” Feng Pupu nodded, looking at Chu Xian happily.
Chu Xian paused and looked at Pupu curiously, sohow sensing that her words had so hidden aning. Reaching over and rubbing her head, he said, “Here, I brought back so food from ho. Try so!”
He placed the bag of dried fish on the table and said, “Try it. I guarantee it will be the most delicious thing you’ve ever eaten!”
“En. Thanks, big brother!” Pupu said with a happy smile, picking up a piece of dried fish with her chopsticks.
“Wow! Delicious!” Pupu shouted in astonishnt. “Brother, what kind of dried fish is this? It’s incredible!”
“Hehe. Of course it is! It was made with a secret recipe!” Chu Xian replied. He couldn’t help but stare at her cute expression and slightly opened mouth. He repeated to himself silently: “A minimum sentence of three years, maximum of a death sentence. Three years or death. Three years or death.”
Tang Qiung saw Pupu’s reaction and reached for a piece herself. As she chewed, her expression turned more and more vibrant and her eyes widened. After swallowing, she couldn’t help but lick her fingers.
[F*ck ! Can you not eat so seductively!] Chu Xian thought to himself.
“Your dried fish is amazing! It’s the most delicious thing I’ve ever eaten!” Tang Qiung said with a blushed face, feeling Chu Xian’s gaze.
“Of course! There are four different flavors – try them all!” Chu Xian nodded with a smile.
“Big brother, have you eaten?” Pupu asked, looking up at him.
“I already ate. You girls can finish the bag!” Chu Xian ate at a rest stop on the way back.
Within ten minutes, the two girls finished almost half a kg of dried fish. Chu Xian stifled a chuckle at their longing expressions.
“Big brother! This is the money I received for all the fish bought when you were gone. I sold 55 fish! There’s also money in Wechat and Alipay that I’ll transfer to you right now!” Feng Pupu said, handing over a stack of cash.
Chu Xian nodded. 55 goldfish was just a little over ten fish sold every day. Business was pretty good.
“I’m really jealous of your business!” Tang Qiung said, looking at him.
“It’s not bad.” Chu Xian smiled. “That’s right, how’s your shop been doing?”
“Pretty good as well. I’ve benefited from your fa,” Tang Qiung replied honestly. The pets she sold were all pretty rare and expensive, which included the Tea-Cup Cat, Poranian, and Myna (1). All of them were priced at around ten thousand RMB. When people ca to see Chu Xian’s shop, many of them would also stop by her store. Chu Xian’s business helped develop her store’s reputation, and with his fa ca more custors. All in all, her business was pretty good.
“Congratulations!” Chu Xian said with a smile.
“En. I have to go back now!” Tang Qiung said, leaving with a wave.
Chu Xian nodded, watching her leave with the feeling that her attitude towards him had improved.
Sitting down on a stool, Chu Xian took out his phone and looked through his WeChat, copying down each of the new orders, one by one.
During his visit ho, Chu Xian received more than a hundred orders. Instead of shipping out the fish right away, Chu Xian told his custors that they would need to wait a week. People naturally wanted the things they couldn’t get even more, and one custor after another posted complaints on his Weibo.
So custors who had already received their shipnt flaunted and bragged to the complainers, gleeful at other people’s misfortune.
All of the people who were paying attention to this goldfish store relaxed a little. The shop didn’t have too many of these supposedly rare goldfish. Chu Xian’s actions made so people abandon their half-ford plans.
“Looks like I have to buy another batch of goldfish and also prepare sothing for the Aquarama Ornantal Fish Competition,” Chu Xian thought to himself.
This Aquarama was incredibly important, and if he could seize this opportunity, he would be able to enter the market for larger ornantal fish, imdiately establishing a na for himself. If he could do well in the competition, he could even make a small fortune.
