is the utmost we can afford Lin San did
not respond immediately instead focusing
on his Bento as if deep in thought the
atmosphere grew tense with Chong xingang
and Gian G holding their breath awaiting
Linden's decision after a prolonged
silence Linson finally spoke fine
300,000 coins it is but you must assist
me with the task Gian G exhaled in
relief and smiled brother ly just say
the word and we will do our utmost to
help Linson glanced at his watch and
mentioned there ESS a lake behind if you
can catch me a 100 crucian cartp before
6:00 I I'll sell you the wood for
300,000 at it was now 4:00 in the
afternoon Gian G and Chun xingang
immediately Rose and hurried outside
taking two large wooden barrel with them
to collect the fish ly San observed
their hurried departure a barely
perceptible smile playing at the corners
of his mouth giangi and Chong xingang
joged to the Lakeside where the water
was clear and sunlight filtered through
the leaves dancing upon the surface
without time to admire the scenery they
rolled up their trousers and waited into
the water to fish Chun xingang plunged
his hands into the lake and soon emerged
with a crucian carp deafly tossing it
into the barrel Gian G however struggled
to catch a fish for some time only to
remember that it was Chong xingang skill
to catch fish fortunately she had a
fishing tool which made it easy for her
to track down the kusian carp as they
worked by the lake their movements grew
increasingly practiced with kusian carp
being tossed into their barrels one
after another Chong shinging skill truly
shown his hands seemed to intuitively
sense the fish s location ensuring he
never missed as the sun began to set and
the light softened their barrels filled
with fish just minutes before 6 6:00
they finally caught their H 100th crusan
carp the two barrels were brimming each
fish weighing between 1 to 4 lb with at
least 100 lb in total fortunately both
of them were quite strong and could
easily lift the heavy barrels they
hurriedly made their way back to the
small wooden house arriving before 6:00
to present themselves before Lynn
Senator though they were winded from the
Run Pride illuminated their faces as
they approached ly San observing the
panting yet triumphant pair and their
buckets over flowing with kusian karp
nodded in approval impressive you truly
managed to catch 100 fish Chong xingang
steadied himself took a deep breath and
said brother Lynn as per our agreement
may we purchase the 10,000 popper trees
for 300,000 coins leaning against the
door frame ly San lit another cigarette
I suppose it's possible but what shall I
do with all these fish you could eat
them Chung shingun suggested earnestly
ly San inhaled deeply exhaled a cloud of
smoke and chuckled his eyes glinting
with Amusement are you jesting lad with
so many fish I DB eating until they
spoiled Gian realized that this Forest
Guardian was not easily swayed he
clearly intended to toy with him a while
longer nevertheless she calmly offered
you could fry or smoke them or even dry
them into salted fish these methods
would preserve them for a long time
moreover you could sell them to the
Local Tavern with so many villagers the
fish would be consumed quickly do G y
thought to herself that if he sold them
to the tavern she could teach Ming Lang
a few recipes ensuring those fish would
sell without issue Local Tavern you mean
that restaurant I haven't he been there
in ages Linson replied exhaling smoke
once more that s not a bad idea with
that Linson extinguished his cigarette
in the ashtray lightly tapping the table
with his finger all right I was just
teasing you the 10,000 popler trees are
already prepared at the back door cash
on delivery you can figure out how to
move them yourself
after Linson finished speaking Chun
xingang produced a card and handed it to
