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

Chen Changfan gestured to Hu the bricklayer to sit down and talk, and then told the waiter to serve the food.

"Boss, the price of lumber is rising now, but we're buying in large quantities. Each square lumber costs 200 coins, and they're all top-quality elm."

Elm wood is not easy to grow, and the price is a bit expensive, but it is still within Chen Changfan's acceptable range.

Twelve days later, hailstorms began to fall.

By then, no one knew how many houses would collapse, and the prices of building materials would inevitably skyrocket.

By that time, the price of this square wood will probably double.

"Don't give up your adobe business. Remember to make a few more carts of adobe and hang them out to dry in the next few days."

When Hu the bricklayer heard his boss suddenly talking about adobe bricks, he was a little confused, but still nodded obediently.

The boss is right, I do whatever he tells me to do.

Today, at the instruction of his boss, he placed an order for one thousand square timbers worth 200 taels of silver!

He still remembers the respectful look of the wood factory owner, and the way he looked at him was more affectionate than that of his own father.

To be honest, the boss is very low-key, so he leaves the job of showing off to Old Hu.

Of course, he was just pretending to be powerful, and in the end it was the boss who had to pay the balance.

"I have a blueprint here. Please help me make some parts. Come with me to the lumberyard tomorrow to pick up the goods."

Chen Changfan handed a drawn blueprint to Hu the bricklayer, who took it out and looked at it for a long time but couldn't figure out what it was.

It looks a bit like the speargun I made last time, but it doesn't feel quite the same.

Chen Changfan smiled secretly and said, "It's right that you don't understand it. This is the blueprint of a repeating crossbow, and I didn't even draw the key components on it."

Unlike the last speargun, that thing had too many limitations, so the leak of the drawings wouldn't have much of an impact.

But this repeating crossbow is a powerful weapon. If the blueprints were leaked, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Old Wei, what are the three people from the Wu family doing today?"

These three people's fish stalls went bankrupt because of me, so they must be holding a grudge against me, but today it was surprisingly quiet.

This made Chen Changfan smell something unusual.

"They didn't dare to cause trouble today, but they pulled several people over and seemed to be asking where we were."

Old Wei also looked a little puzzled.

"I remember those people. They seem to be from Dahe Village. But isn't the Wu family from Wujiabao? Why are they asking people from Dahe Village?"

Aunt Liu casually interrupted, then her expression froze, as if she had thought of a possibility.

The three people from the Wu family were probably trying to find out the location of their boss, hoping to take revenge!

Chen Changfan expected the same. Fortunately, he had already settled his wife and daughter in the county town in advance, so he could start taking action.

If the three of them dare to come, he will make sure they never come back!

After dinner, Chen Changfan arranged the next tasks for the three people and then left on his pony.

"Old Hu, remember to remove the blanks and make the parts according to the drawings."

"Old Wei, you should take Aunt Liu back. We'll meet at the reed marsh tomorrow morning."

The three men all had worried expressions on their faces, but they didn't know how to help their boss, so they had to obey orders.

Riding a pony all the way home, everything was the same as before. Chen Changfan took out the bones of old man Ding, put them in a wooden box, and headed straight to Dingjia Bay.

……

"Daddy!"

Ding Yurong held Old Ding's bones in her hands, tears streaming down her face. Chen Changfan watched silently from the side without saying a word.

This world is so cruel.

Going to the river to fish may result in drowning or being eaten by fish.

Going up the mountain to hunt may result in falling off a cliff and dying, or being killed by a tiger.

It's difficult for fishermen, it's difficult for hunters, and it's even more difficult for farmers.

The only way to survive is to constantly dig out food from the mountains and rivers, from the wind, frost, rain and snow.

He didn't want to live his life in vain; he wanted to take his life into his own hands.

After a while, Ding Yurong recovered from her grief. She turned around and kowtowed to Chen Changfan, then took out the small jar and handed it to him.

[Obtain Lingyu Lotus (purple quality), Encounter Point +1]

"I know this lotus is extraordinary, but I know I can't keep it alive. When my father brought it home, the lotus root was as long as my arm, but now it's only as long as my thumb. If you can keep it alive, it will be considered as fulfilling my father's last wish."

Speaking of Old Man Ding, Ding Yurong couldn't help but tear up her eyes again.

Chen Changfan nodded and quietly left two taels of silver on the table before leaving.

After thinking for a moment, he gave another instruction, "Reinforce the roof and remember not to go out on cloudy days."

Ding Yurong was confused by what she heard and was about to go out to ask, but the figure had already mounted the horse and walked away.

"Reinforce the roof and stay indoors on cloudy days..."

Ding Yurong looked up at the dark sky and said, "This damn heaven, doesn't want us to live?"

……

Chen Changfan returned home and carefully trimmed the rotten roots and leaves of Ling Yuhe and added water and fertilizer.

After finishing all this, he slowly tended to the fields, finally made a simple meal, and waited for night to fall.

The moonlight was dim, the night was as dark as ink, and the sound of wind gradually began to rise around.

Chen Changfan leaned against the wall and closed his eyes to rest.

Suddenly, his ears moved and he heard some noise coming from outside the wall.

"This is Chen Changfan's home. We'll rush in and chop his entire family to pieces!"

This is Wu Yong's voice.

"Second uncle, isn't it too cruel to kill his entire family..." Wu Ergou seemed a little cowardly.

"You coward! Chen Changfan destroyed our fish stall. Doesn't that mean we can no longer survive?" Wu Laoliu said viciously.

Hearing these three people talking, Chen Changfan curled up the corner of his mouth into a sneer.

really.

He had long expected that these three people would hold a grudge against him and would do whatever it takes to deal with him.

He actually came straight into my house tonight and wanted to kill people and set fire to them.

Anyway, he has old grudges with the three Wu family members, and since you are coming here to die,

Then I will take your lives!

Carrying a longbow, he used a ladder to quietly climb up the towering wall of his own house.

Looking down, he saw three suspicious black shadows trying to pry open the door lock.

A cold look flashed in his eyes. He drew his bow and shot an arrow, hitting Wu Laoliu in the back.

stretch!

The sound of the arrow breaking through the air startled Wu Yong. At the moment when Wu Laoliu fell to the ground, he actually rolled on the ground and avoided the second arrow shot by Chen Changfan.

"It's you?!"

Wu Yong widened his eyes and looked at Chen Changfan, who was looking down at him from the top of the wall, in disbelief. Wu Ergou, who was standing beside him, just reacted.

"Second Uncle! Sixth Brother, he's dead!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Yong's pupils shrank slightly. He didn't expect that Chen Changfan's archery skills were so amazing that he could kill his nephew with just one arrow.

"Er Gouzi! Let's fight him! Avenge Lao Liu!"

As Wu Yong spoke, he drew out a big knife and prepared to rush forward to fight to the death.

Wu Ergou also drew his sword and stepped forward, but the next moment an arrow pierced his chest, making him feel cold all over.

"Second uncle, you..."

He turned around, but his second uncle was no longer there.

After seeing Wu Ergou being killed by an arrow, Wu Yong realized that he was no match for Chen Changfan.

What he said just now was just to trick Wu Ergou into going up and taking the fight so that he could slip away.

Chen Changfan killed two people in a row, and at this moment he felt nothing in his heart, and drew his bow and arrow again.

call out!call out!call out!

Three arrows tore through the night sky and accurately hit Wu Yong's back.

thump!

Wu Yong was killed instantly, and his body continued to rush forward due to the inertia of running, leaving a trail of blood on the ground before slowly stopping.

Chen Changfan jumped down from the high wall, his body as light as a fallen leaf. He pulled out a short iron spike and approached the bodies of the three people step by step.

The wind grew stronger, blowing away the bloody smell around.

Chen Changfan stepped forward and finished off the enemy one by one, quickly touching the corpse.

Then he piled the bodies of the three people on a cart and walked towards the river.

On a dark and windy night, it's a good time to kill! A good time to finish off a target! A good time to loot a corpse!
