Tang Long and Ling Zhen asked for advice on everything they didn’t understand about the pattern, and talked with Liu Huiniang for a long time before each took the pattern and went back to make it.
On this day, Zhao Zhen inspected the rattan armor sent from the carpenter's workshop. These rattan armors were all woven from blood vines. A total of 37 pieces of blood rattan rattan armor were obtained.

After Zhao Zhen saw it, he praised Tao Youda, the steward, and rewarded the craftsmen who participated.
Today, the bamboo craftsmen in the workshop can be regarded as the busiest craftsmen, either weaving bamboo mats or weaving rattan armor. After a while, when the ordinary rattan has been processed, ordinary rattan armor will have to be made.
After Tao Youda was sent away, Zhao Zhen did not hesitate. He immediately took the blood vine armor and several loads of wine and meat and took a boat to Donglou Village in Qinglong Mountain.
Ruan Xiaoqi followed Zhao Zhen to the water village. Ruan Xiaoqi said: "Master, are you busy today?"
Zhao Zhen said: "Brother, I brought some wine and meat. I am here today. Take a look at the camp. Firstly, I want to express my condolences to the sergeant for his hard work patrolling the lake every day. Secondly, I haven’t had a drink with my brother for a long time, so today I got drunk together.”
Ruan Xiaoqi said happily: “Sit down, sir. I'll have someone sort it out."
After a while, Ruan Xiaoqi came up with a few sergeants, carrying some fresh fish and tender chicken, and a few fruit plates, and opened the good wine brought by Zhao Zhen. Zhao Ji and Jia Shan were accompanying them, and the four of them sat together. Started drinking.
After three rounds of drinking, the beef and mutton brought by Zhao Zhen were cooked. As soon as they were served, Ruan Xiaoqi sighed: "It's not that I have taken refuge in a high-ranking official. I can't eat meat like this." I'm afraid I won't be able to live a life of drinking."
Zhao Zhen waved his hands and said: "With your brother's martial arts skills, there is no way he can go anywhere."
Jia Shan on the side listened. , said: "Dutou's ability in the water is worthy of anyone in the world. But if it can be compared to this place, I'm afraid it can't be done. For generations, Jiazhuang has made a living by looting, and the days go by and it becomes poorer."< br>
Ruan Xiaoqi also said: "Brother Ouyang Shoutong's ability in the water is not weaker than my three brothers, and he won't let others down in his immediate skills. It is not even difficult to support the family."
"I met Fifth Brother last time, and now he has returned to Shijie Lake. It's so beautiful. I've been patrolling the lake here all day, and I haven't seen anyone coming here who didn't open his eyes." Ruan Xiaoqi said, picked up the wine and drank it in one gulp. .
"Officials, don't forget me when there is another battle."
Zhao Zhen said with a smile: "How can you forget brother, don't you see I brought it this time Are you looking for some blood vine armor? This armor is not an ordinary vine armor, it won’t catch fire easily. You are all brave men here, so there will be a place for you in the future.”
As he spoke, Zhao Zhen raised his glass. .
Zhao Zhen stayed in the water village and spent the night that day.
On the second day, Zhao Zhen got up, moved around in the small courtyard of his residence, and practiced a set of boxing skills, and then enjoyed the breakfast sent by Zhao Ji.
After breakfast, Zhao Zhen planned to leave Ruan Xiaoqi and go back. Just as he was about to board the boat, Zhao Zhen pointed to the fishing boats returning to the dock in the distance and said: "Qilang, why are the fishing boats here coming back so early? ?”
Ruan Xiaoqi said: “Sir, in addition to fishing, every household in Donglou Village has a field. Most of them set the net at night, pick it up in the morning, and catch another one in the evening. There are many harvests every day. After the officials started collecting fish, some people began to make a living by fishing. After selling the fish, they would go to the deep water of the lake to hang the meat on big hooks. Use it as bait to catch big fish. The officials should go and take a look. This is the time to collect the fish."
After hearing this, Zhao Zhen said with a smile: "Let's go and take a look. I have never seen a fish harvest before."
Zhao Zhen followed Ruan Xiaoqi on the boat. Zhao Ji and other villagers also boarded a few fast boats. Ruan Xiaoqi swung gently. He rushed out as if he were flying.
Arriving at the brothel village pier, Zhao Zhen went ashore and watched the fishermen noisily coming ashore to sell fish. Some of the fishermen recognized Ruan Xiaoqi, and the brave ones even came up to say hello.
The two fish-weighing officials saw the noise, turned around and saw Zhao Zhen standing behind them, and hurriedly came over to salute. Zhao Zhen waved his hand, indicating that the two of them should continue weighing fish. When the fishermen saw it, they all gathered around and came ashore to pay their respects. Zhao Zhen said: "No need to be polite, you can sell fish by yourself."
After hearing this, the fishermen Then they dispersed. After watching for a while, Zhao Zhen saw two small officials picking and picking, only taking the fish that weighed seven or eight kilograms, and did not want the other catches.
Only then did Zhao Zhen realize why the fish he brought back to the main world were all of these types, and there were not many crucian carp.
The fishermen were not in a hurry to go home after selling their fish, but stood at a distance with their own fish baskets.
Zhao Zhen stepped forward. Ruan Xiaoqi, Zhao Ji and others saw him and quickly followed him.
Zhao Zhen caught a fisherman with a gray beard and asked: "Old man, how was the harvest today?"
The old man who was asked was stunned after hearing this, and stumbled and said: "Only a few fish were harvested today. I caught a 17-pound grass carp, and the others were all trash fish, so I could only keep them for myself." As he spoke, he lifted the fish basket at his feet.
“What kind of fish are in there?”
"Seven or eight palm-sized crucian carp, and a three-pound snakehead, and the rest are all small miscellaneous fish."
As he spoke, he opened the fish basket and directly took out the fish inside. Pour it out.
Zhao Zhen looked at the fish on the ground and asked: "Why are these fish not sold?"
The fisherman said: "Don't we only want big fish?"
Zhao Zhen couldn't help being stunned after hearing this. He called the two fishermen who were collecting the fish, pointed at the fish on the ground and asked, "Why don't you collect these palm-sized crucian carps?"
The tall petty official said: "Your Majesty, the government has ordered that all fish collected must be five pounds or more, and no fish that is too small will be accepted."
Zhao Zhen scolded: "Nonsense. , Let’s just say that this crucian carp can grow up to one pound. Even if it is a big one, if you collect it according to this standard, can you get a crucian carp?”
The two clerks looked at each other and said no. Dare to make a sound.
Zhao Zhen thought that he could not entirely blame the clerk who collected the fish. After all, he came according to the request of the family.
So he said: "I don't blame you. There is also a problem with this purchase order. From today on, as long as the fish grows up, it can be purchased. Zhao Ji, you go back and discuss this matter with Zhao Xing, who is in charge of purchasing the fish. Let me tell you, everything else has also been changed. Not only fish, but also shrimps, crabs, snails and turtles will be purchased as long as they are grown.”
When the fishermen heard this, they cheered loudly. Holding the fish basket, he picked out the grown live fish and lined up to weigh them.

The people's hearts will be attached to you, and your luck will be +3.
I heard a commotion, and it was indeed the tall little official who collected a four-tailed carp here.
I heard the clerk shout: "Four-tailed carp and one tail, ten sticks." After hearing this, the fishermen all came forward to see who was so lucky. This four-bearded carp can be worth two months' harvest.
Zhao Zhen was also happy when he heard that the four-bearded carp had been accounted for.
Zhao Zhen didn’t even look at it. He was about to get on the boat and leave when there was another commotion. He only heard a fisherman say: "The high officials have said that we will harvest the fish as soon as it grows. I Why don't you accept the fish?"
Another shorter official said: "Your fish is not as thick as my finger, isn't it a fry?"
After hearing this, Zhao Zhen couldn't help but ask. Ruan Xiaoqi asked Ruan Xiaoqi on the side: "What kind of fish is only this size?"
Ruan Xiaoqi said uncertainly: "Mai Sui? Let me take a look."
Ruan Xiaoqi went over, took out a small fish from the fish basket, and walked over. When Zhao Zhen looked at it, he saw that the fish was indeed not even thicker than his little finger.
