Chapter 1 Migrants in the Village(1/2)

"Little guy! Still not letting go?"

"Snapped!"

"Bring it to you!"

Lin Gaoxian slapped Wang Qiang on the head, then kicked him hard, knocking the young man in front of him to the ground and snatching the big fish basket from his hand.

"What a big mullet! It weighs at least ten kilograms, right?"

"Now I'm getting rich!"

Lin Gaoxian didn't even look at the unconscious young man on the ground, and said with a beaming smile.

He is a well-known gangster in Jiangbei Village. He not only causes mischief in the village, but also often hangs out in the county town with some friends. He is very aware of the purchase price of this kind of big mullet.

Not to mention other big fish, this big mullet is very valuable, and can be sold for at least one yuan and two per pound!

This big mullet weighs more than ten kilograms, which is almost twenty yuan!

These days, the workers with iron rice bowls in the city only earn twenty or thirty yuan a month.

When Lin Gaoxian said that he had made a fortune, he was telling the truth and was not bragging.

With a smile on his face, he picked the big fish's cheeks with one hand and threw away the fish basket with the other. He turned around with satisfaction, picked up the big fish, and strode towards his home with a step that he didn't recognize his relatives.

He had to go home quickly and then go to the city to sell the big mullet.

Otherwise, when the fish is completely dead and stale, it will be a big loss.

At that time, I will even think about hanging myself!

As for the unconscious young man lying on the ground behind him, it wouldn't be a big problem even if he died.

A migrant with no father or mother. Unless the village said it was him, no one in the other villagers would try to get to the bottom of it. At worst, they would show some kindness and carry it to the mountain and bury it.

These days, a lot of people die accidentally, and this one is not the least, it's normal.

"Ahem!"

"I am..."

In the chaos, Wang Qiang woke up feeling confused, sat up, coughed up a mouthful of bloody phlegm, shook his head, and looked around.

During this brief coma, his mind was inexplicably filled with memories of the next forty years, which was very outrageous!

These forty years of life experience are unforgettable and every detail is still fresh in my mind.

In later generations, he had extremely rich experience in farming and working, but in the end he never made a fortune and became a master, so he lived a mediocre life.

After a while, Wang Qiang, who had integrated a huge memory, finally adapted.

That magical memory comes from a very similar parallel world, Earth.

The trajectories of the two worlds are basically the same. The only obvious difference is the passage of time.

For a moment, his face was silent.

After a long while, he stood up and looked around at the familiar surroundings.

The big mullet he finally got today was robbed, which was completely normal for him.

He won't cry, let alone shed tears.

Wang Qiang's parents were among the first batch of educated young people to go to the countryside, and later settled in Jiangbei Village.

Therefore, his family became the only outsider household in the village.

Three years ago, my father became seriously ill and died, and my mother soon died of depression.

At that time, he was only twelve years old and had three sisters under ten years old.

The four brothers and sisters cried so hard that their livers and gallbladders were about to burst. They were dying and looking around in confusion.

However, since the four brothers and sisters were not related to each other in the village, and because his family was an outsider, no one came to help or ask questions.

The four young brothers and sisters had no hope. Finally, they wrapped their mother's body in a straw mat at home, tried every means to drag it to their father's grave on the back hill, dug a pit, and buried their mother hastily.

From then on, Wang Qiang never shed tears again.

Because his tears have long since dried up.

Although he is only fifteen years old this year, after his parents died, he shouldered the burden of life alone and raised his three sisters. You can imagine the pain during this period!

"Huh?"

Wang Qiang suddenly remembered something, "Not only my injury has healed, but my whole body is full of strength!"

Only then did he realize something was wrong with him.

He knew, however, that he had been beaten to a bloody head by Lin Gaoxian, a gangster in the village, and his hand had been cut open by a big fish basket.

Now, in addition to the blood stains all over his body, even the big gash on his hand has disappeared!

"Where did that jade ring go?"

Wang Qiang quickly raised his right hand, looked at it carefully in confusion, and then searched around, but found nothing.

The jade ring was found in the nest of the big mullet. It looked crystal clear and beautiful.

Originally, he had no intention of selling it for money, he just wanted to take it home and keep it as a souvenir.

When he was beaten by Lin Gaoxian, he held the jade ring tightly in his hand, but now it has mysteriously disappeared.

"When did I get a strange mark on my right index finger?"

After checking around again, Wang Qiang finally found the clue, "Could it be that..."

With forty years of memories from later generations, those were the decades when all kinds of imaginations were opened up. Wang Qiang is not an ignorant young man now.

In terms of experience alone, it is enough to crush an era.

However, in the huge fused memory, he did not get the jade ring today.

"Goldfinger?"

A smile appeared on his indifferent face, and the joy in his heart was beyond words!

After groping for a while, he couldn't figure out the purpose of this golden finger for the time being, so he ignored it and put the question aside.

In the current situation, we should quickly return to the river and wash away the stains and blood on our bodies.

Otherwise, the three sisters will definitely be frightened when they go home!

Wang Qiang turned around hurriedly and strode towards the Chajiang River not far away.

He was not far from the river, but after a while, he came to the small river, jumped up, plunged into the river, and began to wash his body and clothes.

It has excellent water properties.

It is no exaggeration to say that among these ten miles and eight villages, his water quality is the second, and no one dares to say that he is the first!

This is certainly because he has talent, but more importantly it is due to his acquired skills.

During the three years since their parents died, the four brothers and sisters of Wang Qiang survived only by fishing in river ditches and digging various wild vegetables.

After their parents passed away, due to various reasons such as their young age, the four brothers and sisters did not have a share in various collective jobs to earn work points.

Without work points, naturally you will not be assigned various living necessities.

So in the past three years, in order to survive, fishing in rivers and ditches and digging various wild vegetables has become Wang Qiang's main job.

Fortunately, nowadays, there is no large-scale use of pesticides and hormones for planting and breeding in rural areas, and industrial pollution has not yet officially begun. There are an extremely large number of fish, shrimp and other fish in the water.

In addition, in a collectivist society, there are many rules, and few people can take time to fish to improve their lives. This makes Wang Qiang like a fish in water. Every time he goes out, he reaps a lot.

After a while, Wang Qiang cleaned his body and clothes, went to the shore, found a hiding place, and wrung out his clothes half dry.

Fortunately, it is late autumn now, and Jiangbei Village is located in the south. There is a lot of wind by the river, and soon the clothes and pants on my body were completely dry.

Being robbed of a big mullet would not make Wang Qiang depressed.

He strolled to a nearby river and pulled out a thick rope buried in the beach.

One end of the hemp rope went deep into the river, and the other end was tied to the root of a big willow tree.

He pulled hard to the shore, and soon, with the hemp rope recovered, a large oblong fish cage nearly two meters long and half a meter wide arrived at the shore.

Wang Qiang dragged the big fish cage ashore and saw dozens of fish of all sizes inside!

There are crucian carp, carp, grass carp, etc., and all kinds of fish are jumping alive in it.

He first fished out the small fish and threw them back into the river one by one, leaving only seven or eight big fish.

He had long understood the principle of fishing from the lake.

Catching the big ones and releasing the small ones is for the sake of continuous good harvests in the future, and it is also the biggest reason why he has always had a good harvest in this river in the past three years.

"Acquire one merit point! Obtain primary throwing proficiency!"

At this time, a piece of information suddenly appeared in Wang Qiang's mind, and he was stunned.

Immediately afterwards, some changes occurred in his body. The muscles all over his body increased, and his hands became very flexible. Various throwing techniques became his instinct as if they were innate.

"Within ten meters, where can I hit?"
