The Farm Girl's Charismatic Fortune-Chapter 333 - 329 "Big Fish

Xuanbao saw that it was getting dark, and there were no boats on the river at this time, except for a painted pleasure boat not far away. It was time to start fishing for "big fish," so she had her fifth uncle start fishing.

Once the painted pleasure boat had drifted far away, she let the "big fish" take the bait.

Ruo Chuan looked at his fifth brother, who had an expression as if he had been struck by lightning and gleefully patted Ruo Shan on the shoulder, "Fifth brother, you should hurry up and use the fish hook Xuanbao made especially for you to catch her a big fish. Xuanbao had that fish hook custom-made just for you."

Ruo Shan wished he could throw this younger brother into the river.

Xuanbao: "Fifth uncle, go ahead and fish! After you’re done, it’s your younger uncle’s turn to fish."

Ruo Chuan: "..."

Ruo Shan couldn’t help but burst into laughter, "Sixth brother, fifth brother is letting you fish first, so you must catch a big fish for Xuanbao. You know, fifth brother is only good at pharmacology. Going up the mountain to fight tigers, wading in the river to catch fish—you’ve always loved it since we were little, and you’re the best at fishing."

After speaking, he turned to Xuanbao, "Xuanbao, how about letting your younger uncle fish for you first?"

Xuanbao nodded, "Sure, you both have to fish, it doesn’t matter who goes first."

After all, she was fishing for betrothal gifts for the two younger uncles today, so it didn’t matter who fished first.

Ruo Shan immediately said, "Sixth brother, now as your older brother, I’m letting you fish first!"

Ruo Chuan: "..."

He wished he could throw Ruo Shan into the river to use as bait!

He had several older brothers, but he never felt fortunate. Whenever there was a problem, his older brothers would say, "Sixth brother, as your older brother, I’m letting you do such and such!"

Now tell me, what’s the use of having such older brothers?

Ruo Chuan reluctantly picked up the giant fishing hook, which weighed over ten to twenty pounds, and threw it into the river.

The fishing hook made a "thud" as it dropped into the river, splashing water half a meter high.

Ruo Chuan felt like the sailors and guards on the boat were looking at him as if he were an idiot!

Ruo Chuan hung his head, hoping it would get dark quickly so that no one could see who he was.

Suddenly Ruo Chuan felt something had bitten the hook, and he gave it a tug. Damn!

It actually felt heavy!

"There’s a fish on the hook! There’s a fish on the hook!" Ruo Chuan exclaimed excitedly.

Ruo Shan: "..."

Did he actually catch a fish?

The sailors around were all surprised and crowded closer.

"Fifth brother, hurry over and help, it’s a bit heavy, I’m afraid the fish is too big, and I don’t even know what kind of fish it is."

Ruo Shan immediately snapped out of his daze, "Xuanbao, Xuanyuan young master, you better step back."

After all, if such a large hook can bite, what if it’s some aggressive big fish?

The shopkeeper quickly stepped forward to move Xuanyuan Que and Xuanbao away.

Xuanyuan Que said indifferently, "No worries. If it were a big fish, the river water would be violently shaking. The water is still, so it must just be something heavy hooked onto it."

Everyone thought it made sense.

Ruo Shan and Ruo Chuan also found it logical, so Ruo Chuan gathered the cord to pull the heavy object out of the river.

Ruo Shan stood by, taking a large sword from a guard, ready to defend. If a dangerous big fish emerged, he’d chop off its head immediately. The

Ruo Family men were naturally strong. Although the two brothers could not match Ruo Hai and Ruo Shui in strength, they were still many times stronger than the average man.

Soon, Ruo Chuan pulled the "big fish" out of the water!

A chest, a large chest caked in mud and covered with moss and aquatic plants!

Ruo Shan breathed a sigh of relief.

Ruo Chuan’s heart raced with excitement. This chest had sunk to the riverbed who knows how long ago, and yet it was still intact and unrotted, which spoke to the quality of the materials used!

Moreover, such a heavy chest, fished from the bottom of the river, contained something that almost shouted the answer!

No wonder Xuanbao had made such a massive fish hook!

It turned out that Xuanbao really wanted to fish for a "big fish"!

People on the distant pleasure boat also glimpsed the scene.

They stood on the deck of the pleasure boat watching the excitement, pointing and discussing among themselves, though no one cared what they were saying.

Xuanbao urged, "Fifth uncle, younger uncle, hurry and move the chest onto the boat!"

Ruo Chuan pulled the chest up, unable to move it alone.

Ruo Shan had already returned the sword to the guard, so he stepped forward to help lift the large chest onto the boat.

The sailors on the boat all gathered around.

"What could possibly be inside such a large chest?"

"I bet it’s filled with gold, silver, and jewels!"

"I think so too. Over the centuries, who knows how many shipwrecks there have been in this river, inside"

Someone stepped forward to try and lift it, only to find it impossibly heavy!

Damn!

How did the two Ruo brothers just lift this massive chest without changing their expressions?

They fooled us into thinking the chest wasn’t that heavy!

"If it’s this heavy, it must be full of gold and silver!"

Ruo Chuan didn’t open the chest on the spot. He understood the principle that wealth should not be flaunted. Suddenly, he realized why Xuanbao had asked him to go fishing!

Ruo Chuan handed the big fishhook to Ruo Shan, "Brother, your turn to fish, see if you can catch more."

Shopkeeper Gu: "Hold still with the boat for now, continue fishing around this area."

Ruo Shan didn’t refuse; it was a clear case of a pie falling from the sky!

Of course, he had to try it and see if there were more.

Ruo Shan cast the big fishhook into the water.

He couldn’t help but jerk the line, making the hook move across the riverbed, hoping to hit another chest or something.

He didn’t know that with Ruo Xuan around, even if the fishhook were lying on the riverbed, those chests would hook themselves automatically.

The sailors on the boat all gathered around to watch the river surface, hoping to fish up another chest.

So did the people on the nearby pleasure boat.

The people on the pleasure boat began to steer closer, and they started looking for fishhooks too! freewёbnoνel.com

Everyone believed that there must be more than one chest in the river.

And indeed, there was more than one.

Ruo Shan vigorously shook the fishhook, and before long, he felt it snag onto something!

He exclaimed excitedly, "Got one! Got one!"

Ruo Shan: "Pull it up quickly!"

Shopkeeper Gu also exclaimed excitedly, "Quick, pull it up and see what it is!"

"Right, bring it up quickly!"

...

Under everyone’s urging, Ruo Shan pulled the "big fish" from the river!

Another large chest.

Just as huge as the one before.

Ruo Chuan stepped forward and hefted the chest onto the boat, just as heavy!

The others tried to move it, just like they did with the last one.

So heavy!

"Continue, keep fishing, see if there are more!" urged Ruo Chuan.

Ruo Shan threw the big fishhook back into the river, shaking it vigorously, even making a lap around the boat!

Shopkeeper Gu directed the boat to move forward and backward, making sure the fishhook could sweep the entire area beneath the boats.

Before long, another wooden chest was fished up!

This time, the wooden chest was smaller than the previous two, and it was lighter, but still heavy!

"Continue!"

"Keep going!"

Tired, Ruo Shan passed the fishhook to Ruo Chuan, who continued to fish, imitating Ruo Shan’s earlier method

It wasn’t long before they fished up another one!

This one was even lighter.

Everyone excitedly said, "Keep going! Continue, there must be more!"

Ruo Chuan cast the fishhook back into the river.

Xuanyuan Que silently reminded Ruo Xuan, "That’s enough, keep the rest in your Qiankun Bag."

Ruo Xuan obediently collected the remaining chests from the river into the Qiankun Bag without a sound.
