Chapter 124



"Click"

With one powerful flick of the tail, a fish is blown away from the fight for the bait.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, a big, nimble fish swam quickly to the hook and swallowed the bait, which was still emitting an attractive aroma, in one gulp.

"Ah!" Song Tiantian's little face immediately brightened up. Xu Qi behind her took the fishing rod without saying a word. After playing with the fish several times, he quickly picked up the fish and threw it into the bucket.

Xu Qi, who was already accustomed to this process, didn't even look at the fish on the hook, and then continued to take the fishing rod from Xiangfangnan's hand.

After going back and forth several times, Xu Qi could now consciously move forward whenever he saw the fishing rod sinking. His familiar movements and smoothness made the fishing enthusiasts jealous.

[Isn't this the legendary fishing paradise? ]

[My neighbor, an old man who loves fishing, is almost crying with envy. Is there really such a good place for fishing in the world?]

Is it a location issue? Then why haven't Jiajia and Niannian caught any yet?

[Oh yeah, that seems to be true. It seems like Jia Jia and Nian Nian haven't caught anything yet!]

"Really? I was staring at Tiantian and the others' fishing rods and didn't notice them?"

[It's true. From now until now, neither of them has moved their fishing rods...]

So, is this the difference between anglers?

[No, it's the bait! Tiantian and the others have been using the bait she brought from now on!]

[I've been wanting to ask this for a while now. What brand of bait is Tiantian using? It's incredibly effective!]

I've noticed that almost every time Tiantian casts her bait, she'll have a fish in less than a minute. If it weren't for the bait, I'd be eating my fishing rod live!

Director Liu, who had just replaced Xu Qi and the others with a fish, had just returned to the studio when he saw the scene on the live broadcast.

After seeing Xu Qi catching fish one after another, Director Liu's big grouper suddenly lost its appeal: "Has Xu Qi been possessed by the fish god today? He's catching one fish after another?"

"It's not the fish god, it's the bait." He stared at the live broadcast staff without turning around and said, "There's something wrong with the bait Tiantian brought. Basically, as long as you use the bait she brought, your fishing rod will never fail."

"Is this true? What kind of bait is so magical?" Zhang Bosong, who had just put down his fishing rod, asked curiously.

"I don't know, this is the bait Tiantian brought herself..."

Before he could finish his words, Director Liu opened the door and walked out again.

Zhang Bosong watched him leave and couldn't help shaking his head: "Director Liu is really a devoted fishing enthusiast."

"And he's still a sucker for food."

"puff……"

For a moment, the studio was filled with joyful laughter...

Since they hadn't caught any fish, the two little guys, Xu Anjia and He Jingnian, could no longer sit still.

After seeing Song Tiantian's fishing rod catch a fish again, Xu Anjia couldn't help but look at Song Tiantian eagerly: "Tiantian, can I exchange fishing rods with you?"

"Ah?" Song Tiantian hurriedly looked at her.

"I haven't caught any fish yet. It must be because the fishing rod is not good. So if I exchange it with you, can I also catch fish?" Xu Anjia said a little aggrievedly as he looked at the fishing rod in his hand.

Hearing this, Xu Qi immediately frowned and said to Xu Anjia: "Jia Jia, you can't do this because..."

Before he could finish lecturing Xu Anjia, Song Tiantian on the side immediately spoke up: "My ability to catch fish has nothing to do with the fishing rod."

"What?" Xu Qi and Xu Anjia looked at her together.

Then, Xu Qi thought of something and thought, "Is it bait?"

"Yes!" Song Tiantian nodded quickly and took out the small box from her bag again: "It's all because of it that Nan Nan and I were able to catch so many fish."

"Is that it?" Xu Anjia said in disbelief, "But it doesn't look delicious at all."

"It doesn't matter if it looks unappetizing or tastes good." Song Tiantian said confidently.

"That's true." Xu Anjia believed Tiantian's words without any hesitation.

By the time Xu Qi reacted, the two little guys had already re-baited Xu Anjia's fishhook.

Sure enough, after Xu Anjia changed the bait, the fishing rod that had been motionless began to sink immediately.

Xu Anjia, who caught a fish for the first time, grabbed the fishing rod and looked at Xu Qi excitedly: "Dad, dad, look, I caught a fish!"

"Yes, yes, you caught a fish." Xu Qi hurried forward and grabbed the fishing rod.

He Jingnian, who was standing by, couldn't sit still when he saw this.

"Tiantian, I want to change the bait too!"

"good!"

Xu Qi looked at this scene and suddenly became a little frightened: "Wait, slow down, wait until I catch the fish and then change it!"

Before he could finish his words, He Jingnian couldn't wait to throw the fishing rod with the bait on it.

With a splash, the aroma of the bait attracted more fish to swim towards this area.

When Director Liu came over, Xu Qi was frantically holding two fishing rods and kept shouting to the children on the side: "Let go, don't let the fish pull you in!"

Upon seeing this, Director Liu immediately felt that an opportunity had come: "Do you want my help?"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Xu Qi agreed without even turning his head.

With the help of Director Liu, a serious fishing enthusiast, Xu Qi's pressure was immediately greatly reduced...

While everyone was having a great time fishing here, Lu Chuanbei and a few others who were fishing at sea encountered some trouble.

"What did you say?"

"What do you mean we only rented the boat, but the fishing nets are not included? Is that a reasonable thing to say?"

"Uncle Lin, it's already this late, please stop teasing us."

Lu Chuanbei and his companions finally arrived at a place suitable for casting nets, but then they heard the bad news.

"You only said you wanted to rent a fishing boat, but you didn't say you wanted to rent a fishing net." Uncle Lin said very calmly.

"But we can't just rent a boat just to go out for a run, right?" He Xuebin, who was already seasick, felt even worse now.

"Who knows? Some people just like to go out to sea and see the scenery."

"Ugh!" He Xuebin couldn't hold it in and vomited while holding the railing on the deck.

Seeing this, Lu Chuanbei quickly supported He Xuebin and looked at Uncle Lin: "Uncle Lin, my friend didn't even care about seasickness in order to come here to fish, but now you tell us that you only rented a fishing boat and didn't even have a fishing net. Isn't this too inhumane?"

"Yes, Uncle Lin." Fang Xiuzhu looked at Uncle Lin with an embarrassed look on his face: "We have finally come out to sea. You can't just watch us go back empty-handed, right?"

"There are ways to avoid returning empty-handed." Uncle Lin took out a cigarette and lit it.

"What method?" Lu Chuanbei asked hurriedly.

Uncle Lin looked like it was such a simple matter, why would he have so many questions? "It's the same as renting a boat."

"What?" He Xuebin wiped his mouth and looked at Uncle Lin: "We've already rented a boat, and we still have to pay to rent fishing nets?"

"No, we can go back now." Uncle Lin said unmoved.

"Then didn't we rent the boat for nothing?" He Xuebin felt very bad at the moment.

"Uncle, don't scare them." Lin Qi came out of the cab and looked at Lu Chuanbei and the others with a smile: "However, the production team did say that we can't rent the fishing nets to you for free, but you can find a way to exchange them with us."

"Barter?" Fang Xiuzhu reacted immediately.

"Yes." Lin Qi looked at them and nodded. "As long as you can provide us with supplies that can be exchanged, we can give you the fishing nets."

Lu Chuanbei subconsciously touched the things he was carrying and said, "If I had known this, I should have brought something with me when I went out."

He Xuebin even reached directly for the belt on his pants: "Can I use my belt in exchange?"

"No." Lin Qi said quickly: "We only accept seafood transactions."

"What?" He Xuebin was stunned. "Only accept seafood transactions?"

Lu Chuanbei's mouth twitched: "You're talking to us about seafood trading at this time?"

Fang Xiuzhu looked directly at the safety boat that the production crew was following not far away: "The production crew is really great."

After saying that, he looked at Lin Qi and said, "I want to know, if there is no seafood, do you have any other way to lend us fishing nets?"

Lin Qi raised the corner of his mouth: "Yes, you can write us an IOU."

"Pa!" Lu Chuanbei covered his forehead with his hands. "Are you going to borrow money again?"

"It's not money, it's fishing supplies." Lin Qi said with a smile: "We can lend you the fishing nets, but we need a certain amount of fishing supplies in return."

"Then...what are fishing supplies?"

Lin Qi smiled at them and said, "That depends on how many kilograms of fish you are willing to give in exchange for the right to use the fishing net."

Hearing this, Lu Chuanbei and the others couldn't help but look at each other: "Do you want to rent it?"

"Rent!" He Xuebin gritted his teeth and said, "I've already gone out to sea, I can't come back empty-handed!"

"Then rent it." Fang Xiuzhu glanced at Lin Qi and the others, "But we still need to discuss the amount of fishing expenses."

"Just to remind you, the fishing nets on our boat can catch over 1,500 kilograms at a time."

He Xuebin took a deep breath. "If we can catch so many fish with one net, then even if we collect 500 kilograms of fishing supplies, we'll still have 1,000 kilograms of fish left over at the end."

"Okay, it's settled!"

"What?" He Xuebin turned around and looked at Uncle Lin: "What do you mean it's settled?"

[It’s over, it’s over, Dabin speaks too fast! ]

This is terrible. I really have to pay 500 kilograms of fish for fishing expenses.

"I knew Dabin was going to do something bad. Now it's all over. I don't know if I can even pay back the fishing money I caught today."

【It can’t be that bad, right? 】

"Isn't it said that a fishing net can only catch a little over 1,500 kilograms? So even if it's a little less, it shouldn't be too much to pay back, right?"

[The friend above must have never gone fishing at sea, right? ]

Even experienced fishermen can't guarantee they'll catch fish with every net, let alone Lu Chuanbei and his crew, as this is their first time out at sea. Whether they can catch fish is another matter.

[That 500 kilograms of fishing supplies Dabin mentioned... No wonder Uncle Lin suddenly got so excited and agreed...]
