Chapter 329
"You mean the yellow croaker? There's definitely no such thing. If there were, all those big bosses would have gathered together."
The middle-aged man sighed softly: "Do you have anyone here who can catch yellow croakers?"
The reason he came here was because some time ago, there were rumors in the circle that someone had acquired a rather large golden threadfin bream maw.
That stuff is good for your health, and that's exactly what his old man needs right now. Unfortunately, the owner of the fish maw refuses to have it.
He made many inquiries before finally arriving here, all for that slim chance.
"Oh, maybe there really is, but whether they're willing to accept it is another matter."
Qin He was pleasantly surprised upon hearing this: "Who? Could you introduce me?"
Yun Tao scratched his head, about to speak, when he suddenly saw Yun Jiao not far away and his eyes lit up.
"Jiaojiao, Jiaojiao, come here."
Yun Jiao glanced at the middle-aged man, then slowly shuffled over with her short legs.
"Uncle Tao."
Qin He was a little surprised to see Yun Jiao, the young girl: "It's you, little girl."
Yun Tao was surprised: "You two know each other?"
Qin He smiled and said, "We met briefly yesterday."
He has a good memory, and Yun Jiao doesn't have the typical look. With a face like that, even at a young age, she's unforgettable.
Yun Tao chuckled, "Since we know each other, that makes things easier. If you want the golden threadfin bream, the only possibility is whether Jiaojiao can find it. Otherwise, it's all down to luck. If Jiaojiao can't find it, then no one else can either."
Qin He was surprised; such a small child.
Yun Jiao asked him, "What do you want from the yellow croaker?"
Qin He squatted down to be at eye level with Yun Jiao: "I need fish maw."
"To treat my family member's illness."
Yun Jiao said "Oh," and then added, "I'll try to look for it for you, but I'm not sure if I can find it."
I'm grateful that what you said yesterday dispelled my seventh brother's idea of not wanting to go to school.
Qin He looked at the confident-looking child in front of him and asked with a kind smile.
"Is this kid really that amazing? Where are your family members?"
Qin He naturally didn't quite believe such a young child.
However, he didn't show it.
Yun Jiao: "They're at home."
"Boss, don't let Jiaojiao's young age fool you. When it comes to finding things in the sea, I reckon the entire coastal area combined can't match her skill level."
Qin He was genuinely surprised this time.
“Okay, if you can really find it, I will pay two cents more than the market price for this golden threadfin bream maw.”
Yun Jiao nodded: "Okay."
When do you need it?
Qin He: "I can only stay here for ten days. If I can't find it within ten days, I'll have to leave."
He looked at Yun Jiao: "However, I won't let you be the only one looking."
“I will also ask other people, and I will give the money to whoever can find the golden threadfin bream.”
He certainly wouldn't put all his eggs in one basket.
It's still the same basket that looks rather unreliable.
Yun Jiao didn't care. If others could find it, it was their good luck, and they deserved to earn that money.
After agreeing, Yun Jiao strolled back home.
Qin He then began asking those around him about the little girl from earlier. He didn't believe a single person's account.
Then he discovered that when he first mentioned Yun Jiao, most of the people who knew her looked at him with wariness.
Qin He continued calmly, "I heard that the girl is a good swimmer, and I'm thinking of paying her to catch a certain kind of fish for me in the sea, but I don't know if what she said is true."
Upon hearing this, the fisherman relaxed his guard a little: "Oh, you're looking for fish. If fish are rare, you've come to the right person. She's the mascot and lucky star of our village. She's incredibly capable. Not to mention fish, she can even find boats and people lost at sea."
Qin asked many people, some of whom were not from Bailong Village and did not know anything about Yun Jiao.
But almost everyone in Bailong Village praised the little girl.
“Yun Jiao, she was born for the ocean.”
"She's a very good diver. Don't let her small size fool you, she's got a lot of skills."
"Our village temple is great, and the ancestral hall was able to be rebuilt thanks to her."
"Yun Jiao is quite formidable in the sea; even the big fish there have to listen to her."
In short, after making inquiries, it turns out that Yun Jiao is indeed a capable young girl.
Qin He suddenly became curious.
On the other hand, Yun Jiao didn't rush to find fish, but went home to eat and write.
Then go find Fourth Brother.
If she remembered correctly, her fourth brother had taken a picture when they caught that golden threadfin bream.
Speaking of which, Yun Jiao remembered that she wanted to catch a yellow croaker for her master, but she didn't look for it intentionally and never came across one, so she forgot about it.
But it's okay, it hasn't been a year yet, it's not too late to look now.
Yellow croaker, also known as golden threadfin bream, is expensive, but Yun Jiao doesn't plan to catch many; catching just two will be enough.
Even if someone comes to her in the future, she will consider the situation.
Even though she's still young in this life, as a top predator in the ocean in her previous life, she's very clear about some of the rules of survival.
They are powerful enough to prey on all creatures in the ocean, but along with their power and intelligence, they also bear a difficult task.
That is to maintain the balance of the ocean.
Mother fish with fry and fry are excluded from the merfolk's hunting list.
Similarly, when encountering a ferocious beast that is inherently violent and indiscriminately kills in the ocean without eating it, every merman will immediately add it to their hunting list, and it will be a fight to the death.
Yun Jiao wouldn't use her advantages to specifically go to the sea to catch large quantities of fish like tuna and yellow croaker just because they are expensive.
She takes things as they come; if she encounters one, she'll grab it; if not, she'll let it go.
Yun Jiao took out the photo of the yellow croaker and planned to go to the sea to look for it tomorrow.
Now that her family is wealthy, she rarely goes out to sea with her father and uncles when they go fishing.
Anyway, the family doesn't rely on the money from fishing for food. It's just that the two grown men can't sit still and want to earn some money themselves. They'll catch whatever they can.
Yun Jiao only needs to bring home what she likes to eat and what her family likes to eat; she rarely takes them out to sell.
She didn't tell her family about going to find yellow croaker.
After all, it's not even certain whether we can find it.
She doesn't like to publicize things that aren't finished.
The next day, after seeing off her older brothers to school, her mother and aunts went to gather pig feed, and her father and uncle went out to sea.
After making some preparations, Yun Jiao also jumped into the sea to find the orca pod.
However, it was intercepted halfway by another group of orcas.
There were only five orcas in the pod, including two calves.
She hadn't seen it before; it must have come from other seas, and it seemed... it had come specifically to find her.
