Chapter 42 Great

Somehow, the surroundings became very quiet, and Du Zhengming quickly realized the abnormality of the atmosphere. He seemed to be uncomfortable being stared at. His movements turned around and looked up at Du Weidao.

At this moment, looking at Du Weidao's solemn look, Du Zhengming finally realized that Du Zhengming was not showing off to him, nor was he joking, but that there was really something important to explain.

"What's wrong, Wei Dao?"

Du Zhengming asked again, and with inexplicable guilt and lack of confidence, he asked again: "Is there anything wrong?"

"Brother——"

Du Weidao called out earnestly, and his solemn appearance made Du Zhengming feel at a loss, and even said: "Brother, you can transport these fish back to Changde City and hand them over to my father, and let him help me sell these fish."

As if a thunderbolt from the blue, Du Zhengming was slightly surprised and looked at Du Weidao in disbelief. The others were very similar anyway.

This young master of the Du family is really brave enough to speak, and he actually asked his father to sell fish. This operation made people speechless and I wonder what to say?

It feels like a mess.

That was a fourth-rank court official who made people sell fish in the street. I really don’t know what I thought.

What kind of style?

This kind of thought came to mind in many people, and Du Zhengming's expression was even more unnatural, and he said in a naughty way: "Well, Wei Dao, let my uncle sell these fish, right?

Just leave it to my elder brother.”

Gradually, Du Zhengming's confidence became more and more confident, and his voice became louder and louder. Before waiting for Du Weidao to respond, he said: "Weidao, Brother promises you that you will definitely help you sell these fish at a good price. Brother, I don't want a penny. Don't bother my uncle and his elder brother."

"Yes~ Young Master, don't bother the master like this." Du Xing quickly helped and said: "Also, it's not good to sell fish in the street and ask the master, a court official, to do such things, to do it. It's not good."

However, Du Weidao suddenly laughed at the two of them with good intentions and everyone's expectant gaze.

"Brother, you misunderstood."

Du Zhengming was a little angry and looked at Du Weidao with dissatisfaction, while the latter still said to himself: "Brother, you should know what I promised my father, right?"

Hearing this, Du Zhengming was confused for a moment and reacted in a flash, but he still asked tentatively: "Wei Dao, what do you mean by...?"

Du Weidao nodded, but said calmly: "Brother, tell my father that each pound of fish costs two cents, and each family purchases up to four pounds of fish."

Du Zhengming was stunned for a moment, his face full of confusion, but he quickly reacted and said with a key point: "Don't worry, Wei Dao, I will definitely send these fish to Changde City safely and hand them over to my uncle."

Amid the sound of the donkey cart "squeaking", Du Zhengming led a group of brothers from the military camp to escort more than a dozen carts of live fish towards Changde City.

At this time, the net entered Liuye Lake again, and the second selection of village heroes also began. As for the first time, the applicants were drinking the hot porridge that had been prepared for them long ago by the piles of fires.

Of course, there are also grilled fish, each of which is about two pounds, roasted yellow and flowing oil, exuding an attractive fragrance.

Military Supervisor’s Office—

In the living room, after all the servants left, Cao Zhijian had no intention of the fragrant Yunwu tea. His nervous brows made Du Yinxi sigh and sigh.

"Mr. Cao, Du is powerless. Now Zhang Xianbi has long been obsessed with interests, almost losing all his conscience, and holding military power. With your and my yamen runners and military camps, he is helpless to him."

Speaking of this, Du Yinxi couldn't help but sigh again, feeling powerless, and his face was full of shame.

"Magistrate Cao, please try to open it. After making a fuss, let him leave. Whether he is going to serve the king or not, it may be a good thing. At least there is a hidden danger in Changde Mansion."

"That's all."

Cao Zhijian shook his head and sighed, looked at Du Yinxi, opened his mouth, and was unwilling to say something, but he finally gave up, but he still looked worried.

At this moment, there was a burst of rapid footsteps and words full of excitement from outside.

"Master, Master, good news, good news, Young Master Tang and the others have returned and brought back more than a dozen live fish from donkey carts."

At this time, Uncle Fu, who had just become old, ran in, his face full of excitement, and said again, "I have estimated that there are at least a hundred tails, all of which are fat fish."

While speaking, Uncle Fu's eyes lit up, he looked straight at Du Yinxi, and even said, "Besides, Master, the Young Master Tang also told me that the Young Master would fish overseas and would send fish to the mansion in the future, only a lot of them."

However, after hearing these news, Du Yinxi was not happy at all, but instead asked with a frown, "Why are those things being sent back?"

"Master, go and have a look, those fish are so fat."

Uncle Fu did not notice that Du Yinxi's expression was unnatural, and he still said, "Besides, Master, Master Tang said, "Young Master asked you to sell the fish for him--"

"Nothing"

However, before Uncle Fu finished speaking, Du Yinxi shouted lightly and said angrily: "What kind of discipline does this official have to sell fish?"

At this time, Cao Zhijian, who had been sitting next to him, disappeared with worry. As his heart moved, his eyes lit up. He was excited and stood up in an instant and came to Du Yinxi's side.

"Brother Du, wait a moment!"

After calling Du Yinxi, Cao Zhijian took another step forward, came to Fu Uncle Fu, and asked with some excitement: "Are you true?"

Uncle Fu was confused and stood there in confusion when he heard this, but forgot to answer.

Looking at Cao Zhijian who was a little out of control, with a faint excitement and expectation, Du Yinxi was a little suspicious, and then he took a step forward and asked, "Mr. Cao, what's wrong?"

However, Cao Zhijian ignored Du Yinxi, and he was like a man who had caught the last straw to save his life. The two men suddenly grabbed Fu Bo's shoulder.

"In other words, in just one day, your young master caught more than a thousand kilograms of fish in Liuye Lake?"

"It should be so~"

Uncle Fu was still in a daze, but this time he did not forget to answer Cao Zhijian's question, but he was so unconfident.

"Very good!"

At this moment, Cao Zhijian screamed excitedly, his excitement overwhelmed, making Du Yinxi more confused, and he couldn't help asking again: "Mr. Cao, what's wrong? What happened? Is it that the dog boy offended?"
