Survival skills maxed out, I feed my wife and daughter by catching fish and shrimp

Qin Fang trotted into the house and saw that his father was sick, his mother had lost weight, and even his usually lively and lovely sister had a worried look on her face.

He couldn't help but burst into tears on the spot, choking and saying, "Dad and Mom, I'm back. I'm so unfilial and made you worry..."

The porcelain bowl in Liu's hand slipped, and the medicine spilled all over the floor, wetting the hem of her skirt without her noticing.

"Fang'er? It's really you! Come here quickly and let mother see you!"

Liu cried and laughed at the same time, holding her son tightly in her arms.

Qin Hao also propped himself up, reached out his hand tremblingly and touched his son's head, and said in a hoarse voice: "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back..."

"Brother, was there an older brother who rescued you?" Qin Xue blinked her big eyes and asked impatiently.

Qin Fang nodded. "He's the bandit-suppression captain from Qingshan County. His name is Chen Changfan."

"It turns out to be Master Chen. We must thank him sincerely!"

……

After sending the children home one by one, Chen Changfan felt much better.

Then, he led his men straight to the county government office and piled the heads of Ma Cheng and a group of horse gang bandits at the gate of the government office. Cheng Weimin was so scared that he didn't dare to come out.

The people gathered around curiously, looking at the 300 heads, and when they learned that the caravan had been destroyed, they immediately applauded.

Banditry has been a problem for many years, but this is the first time I have seen someone actually wipe out all the bandits in an entire village.

"Thank you, Master Chen, for rescuing my son! Please accept my greeting!"

Among the onlookers, Qin Hao's family squeezed out of the crowd, shouted loudly, and bowed in the direction of Chen Changfan.

Before Chen Changfan could react, another old man came forward with a young child and knelt down with a thud.

"Thank you, Master Chen, for rescuing my puppy!"

thump!

thump!

"Master Chen, I cannot repay you for saving my life. Please accept my respect!"

"Master Chen, please accept my humble greeting!"

"Master Chen..."

More than a dozen people, young and old, knelt down to express their gratitude and presented eggs, cabbages, silver and other items with both hands.

Chen Changfan was not pretentious and accepted the greeting frankly. He then asked Lao Wei and others to help these people up.

"I'll accept the thank you gift as well."

He would not ask for other people's gratitude specifically, but if a thank-you gift was given to him, he would have no reason not to accept it.

Lao Wei and others paused and accepted the gifts of thanks from those people.

Chen Changfan nodded in satisfaction, then looked at Cheng Weimin, who looked bewildered. "Sir Cheng, there are three hundred members of the caravan, including the bandit leader Ma Cheng. All the heads are here. Please count them."

Cheng Weimin didn't dare look at the pile of heads, and tremblingly said, "No need to count. Ma Cheng's head will be rewarded with 598 taels of silver, and the rest of the bandits will each receive 1598 taels, which is taels, a total of taels."

"Wrong!" Chen Changfan smiled, "It should be 1600 taels."

Cheng Weimin paused, thinking that Chen Changfan was trying to intimidate him, but he said:

"There's still one bandit on the loose, but I'll catch him today, so the reward should be 1600 taels."

"You said 1600, so it's 1600."

Cheng Weimin didn't dare argue with Chen Changfan about the two taels of silver. He wanted to get rid of this plague god immediately.

After receiving the silver, Chen Changfan led his men out of the county government office. Old Wei couldn't help but whispered:

"Sir, we have no idea where the fugitive is now. How can we catch him today?"

"If I say yes, then it is yes."

The rest of the people were sent back to Xiaofeng Mountain, and Lao Wei and Zhang Yi followed Chen Changfan.

Both of them were thinking about the escaped bandit, but Chen Changfan was strolling slowly on the street.

He strolled around the market at a leisurely pace, asking about the current prices from time to time, and couldn't help but marvel at the current soaring prices.

"The prices in the Misty Ridge market must also go up. They must be at least 30% more expensive than the market in this county town." After walking around, Chen Changfan suddenly gave the order.

Old Wei was puzzled again. "If it's 30% more expensive than here, will anyone still buy it?"

"If I say it will go up, then it will go up. If no one comes to buy today, then I will continue to raise the price tomorrow."

"Boss, if the price is increased by 30%, no one will buy it. Why should we continue to raise the price?" Old Wei was even more confused.

"Don't worry, they will buy it, and the more we raise the price, the more they will rush to buy it."

Chen Changfan looked at Lao Wei with a playful look and chuckled, "How about we make a bet? If I'm right, you give me a hundred taels of silver. If I'm wrong, I'll give you a hundred taels."

Old Wei quickly shook his head and said, "Who can beat you in betting? Besides, I don't have a hundred taels!"

As a time traveler who has seen many ups and downs, no one understands hunger marketing better than him, because this is a means of manipulating people's hearts.

Not to mention the already popular ring-handled swords and lantern wine, even junk products can be sold in huge quantities through hunger marketing.

Of course, doing so will damage their reputation, but what’s the use of reputation for these bandits?

The only real thing is to make all the money. Who cares whether the bandits curse or not?

Moreover, these bandits are much richer than ordinary people, and he would feel uncomfortable if he didn't squeeze a lot of money from them.

"Sir, I don't understand your hunger marketing strategy. Just ask Shopkeeper Fu to come over."

Zhang Yi brought the shopkeeper Fu forward, and the latter hurriedly saluted Chen Changfan.

Chen Changfan knew that these big and strong men didn't understand business, so he repeated the price increase strategy to Shopkeeper Fu. Shopkeeper Fu quickly understood it and couldn't help but admire the boss's intelligence for coming up with such a brilliant idea.

"Sir, it's already noon. Should we hurry and search for the escaped bandit?"

Seeing that everything was arranged properly, Zhang Yi asked anxiously.

After all, I just said it in front of so many people. If I can't catch the fugitive today, I'm afraid your reputation will be damaged.

"Hey, you're in a hurry again. Let's go to Shiweizhai and have something to eat first."

Chen Changfan paced leisurely, but Shopkeeper Fu paused, then took a few quick steps, came up to Chen Changfan and bowed, saying, "Sir, the new owner of Shiweizhai is not to be trifled with..."

Manager Fu knew that the boss was going to Shiweizhai at this time probably for himself.

The boss wanted to help him get Shiweizhai back, and he also wanted to take Shiweizhai back, even dreaming about it, but he couldn't harm the boss.

Chen Changfan said, "Let me tell you, how is this new owner so difficult to mess with?"

"Does the boss know the Lin family in Qinghe County?"

Chen Changfan was speechless for a while. He seemed to know very little about Qinghe County.

I only know from some books that Qinghe County has a prosperous business, abundant resources, and is a very livable place.

Seeing Chen Changfan remained silent, Shopkeeper Fu realized he had spoken out of turn and immediately tried to smooth things over, saying, "The boss is very knowledgeable and naturally knows all this. I will then introduce the situation in Qinghe County to Old Wei and Zhang Yi."

Old Wei and Zhang Yi were both stunned.

Boy, you change the subject so quickly, don't you?

"Qinghe County has four major clans: the Lin, Xie, Chu, and Xiao families. These four families control almost all of Qinghe County's resources. Compared to them, our Fu family is not worth mentioning at all. We have no choice but to rely on the four major families. They eat meat and we drink soup. But if we are not allowed to drink the soup, it is just a matter of the four major families raising a finger."

"This time, it was the Lin family of Qinghe County who made the move. I don't know what they suddenly did, but they bought all of my Fu family's restaurants. They called it a purchase, but they only bought them at half the market price. My Fu family's assets shrank by half overnight, and at the same time, I, the shopkeeper, became a dog without a home."

Shopkeeper Fu sighed, a deep sense of powerlessness in his tone. "Fourth update! This is a small burst of energy. 555, please give me some motivation, readers!"
