Chapter 386: Chapter 386 Mother G.o.d’s Manifestation (7)
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Fis.h.i.+ng? There are fish in the river?” The old man’s eyes brightened when he heard that.
Although their lives were a little better now that they had flour, filling their stomachs with no meat was still difficult.
If there were fish, they could at least have some protein in their diet.
“Let’s go and take a look.” When Tian Jingzhong heard this, he immediately took a fish basket and followed them outside.
When they reached the river, they only found seaweed and no fish.
He then thought of something and reluctantly took a biscuit out of his pockets, broke it into pieces, and put it in the fish basket. He then sank the fish basket into the river.
At the same time, when Manager Liu got the news, he first went to the manor tenants and saw them distributing the eggs and noodles; he ran to Xin’an village after that.
After confirming that something had been given to both of them, he asked Hu Chun in confusion, “1 also offered incense yesterday, but why didn’t 1 get anything?
“How did you guys obtain so much food in one go?”
Hu Chun told him what Gu Chengrui had said the day before, “Maybe it’s because of our sincerity. If one is not sincere, Mother G.o.d might not be able to hear their prayers.
“Also, you don’t seem to be lacking in food.
“I also heard that the manor’s tenants also went to pay their respects collectively, and they kowtowed just like us. I heard they didn’t get much in return compared to us.”
“Is that so?” When Manager Liu heard him say this, he did feel a little guilty.
After all, when he paid his respects yesterday, he was skeptical and didn’t believe in Mother G.o.d at all.
“I can only think of these two reasons.” Hu Chun nodded.
At this moment, Gu Chengrui came over with the silver notes and gave them to Hu Chun.
Knowing the reason for Manger Liu’s visit, he remembered what Zhou Ying had said and nodded in agreement. “I think what Hu Chun said makes sense. Why don’t you go over and try again?”
“I’ll buy some incense now; do you want to come along?” Hu Chun asked as he looked at Manager Liu.
“Let’s go. I’ll buy some incense first, and we’ll talk about the rest later.” Manager Liu hesitated for a moment before nodding his head.
After that, the two went to town together.
When buying incense, he also heard the refugees had obtained a fis.h.i.+ng basket and were at the river. He also heard that someone had found wild ducks in the reeds by the river.
The two men looked at each other and turned toward the dock on their way back. They happened to b.u.mp into Tian Jingzhong with the others and their fish baskets, and they quickly ran over to take a look.
There were palm-sized fish in their baskets, as well as mud loaches and eels.
“It seems like there are quite many mud loaches and eels in this river,” Manager Liu commented with a grave expression.
“This isn’t good. These loaches are excellent at digging holes, and it’ll be troublesome if it breaks the dam.”
“Indeed, I’m afraid all of their natural predators are dead, and those who aren’t dead are probably hiding away. This must be the reason why these loaches are flooding the river.” Tian Jingzhong nodded in agreement.
He took a fish basket and told the old man among the refugees, “I’ll take a fish basket and find someone to make the same one according to this. I’ll send it back after they’ve learned the craft.”
“Feel free to take it.
“We also know how to make this same basket, but initially, we aren’t sure why Mother G.o.d gave us this. Now that we know her intentions, we’ll go to the mountain and find something to make more baskets.” The old man shook his head and replied.
“Could there be another layer of meaning?” Manager Liu asked with a pensive look.
“What?” Tian Jing Zhong asked curiously.
“It’s better to teach a man to fish than to give a man a fish. Perhaps Mother G.o.d wants people to earn their keep as much as possible and not rely too much on her.”
“Why would you think so?”
