Chapter 216 (2/2)

If you disturb the king of Jinsha, the king will set off a torrential flood and drown the whole village.

Even his grandfather disagreed with Jiang Xiong's refitting his boat into a propeller. But after all, grandson is a man who has worked outside and seen the world. The old man finally gave in to his heartache for money.

Early in the morning, just after 4 a.m., Jiang Xiong got on his small covered boat and was ready to start fishing. His 65 year old grandfather, as usual, followed the past.

To say his grandfather Lao Jiang, he is still a legend in the village. From the age of 15, he became a teacher and became a corpse fisherman in the Yangtze River. Now old, coupled with the competition of various corpse fishing companies on the Yangtze River, Grandpa washed his hands in a golden basin and specialized in fishing.

But grandpa still abides by the old rules on the Yangtze River.

Today's Yangtze River water is very calm and the water flow speed is not fast. When you fish in wogouzi at this time, you will generally have a good harvest. After all, the big fish in the Yangtze River like to migrate in calm waters.

Jiang Xiong inspected his wupeng boat. This is what every sailor should do carefully every day. The awning boats peculiar to the Yangtze River are almost all made of willow and locust trees growing on both sides of the river. It is very strong and can be used for decades.

But the bed made of wood is easy to leak.

Looking for food in the river, the boat is the foundation and dependence. There is something wrong with the ship. In the vast waters and changeable eddy currents, it is difficult to swim out alive even if the water property is good.

”Check it?” Grandpa took out the dry cigarette bag as early as possible and lit it. He took two breaths.

”All right, all right.” Jiang Xiong looks big and thick, but his heart is very thin. When I was working outside, I became a team leader because I was careful.

Now I can't. I've got a wife and a baby. There's money everywhere. Where can I earn enough money from working, it's better to go back to my hometown and fish steadfastly.

After over fishing in the Yangtze River, there are not many big fish and not many good fish. This leads to the more scarce, the higher the price. For the sake of his wife and children, Jiang Xiong got up early and worked in the dark. Although it was hard, he could save some money every day, which was much better than working.

”Worship King Jinsha first.” Grandpa knocked a cigarette bag on the edge of the boat. Then respectfully held out a small censer from the cabin.

The censer has been burning for years, and its whole body is dark and shiny.

Grandpa grabbed a handful of glutinous rice and put it into the censer. Then he lit the three incense sticks and inserted them into the stove.

The fragrant smoke is also black and shiny, floating straight into the sky.

Grandpa nodded: ”go cutting, today King Jinsha will give us face, and we will have a great harvest.”

Chiang Hsiung disagreed. These rituals and traditions secretly looked down on them who had worked outside. I'm afraid similar traditions will be lost and completely broken after grandpa's generation.

After all, this is a high-tech era. Humans can go to the moon. If there are ghosts, where do they live? Why can't they be photographed by the satellites around the sky?

As soon as Jiang Xiong pulled the rope of the engine, a steady roar came from the engine. With the rotation of the propeller, the canoe swung back beautifully. Then the boat broke through the wind and waves and drove towards the depths of the Yangtze River.
