This document turned out to be a gambling agreement, which stated that Zhang Baiyang and a man named Li Wanhe would decide the winner by going out to sea to fish. In addition to 10 million in cash, the stakes also included the right to sell ready-to-eat seafood in Su Province.
"Uncle Zhang, do all you rich people play so big? Who is this Li Wanhe?" Zheng Gan asked after reading the gambling agreement.
Zhang Baiyang sighed. "Li Wanhe is the leading seafood company in Liao Province and my sworn enemy. We've been fighting each other since we were young, and it just so happens that we're about to enter the Su Province market. I don't know where this old guy got the news, but he came to me specifically and insisted on making a bet."
"As a result, I immediately agreed to it."
Zheng Gan was speechless. He didn't understand how such a powerful boss could act so impulsively. Fortunately, he was not abroad now, otherwise he would have been defeated.
After all, they came prepared, otherwise could they have directly proposed to use the method of going out to sea and casting a net?
"Agan, we have an old friendship. Let's not talk about the 10 million. I have been preparing for the market in Su Province for a long time. If I lose, the loss will not be a small amount." Zhang Baiyang played the emotional card.
However, Zheng Gan didn't agree outright and showed a very embarrassed expression. "Uncle Zhang, it's not that I don't agree to your request, but my level may not be enough. I usually just do small things. If you really count it, my experience is far behind others."
What he said was very clear. How can I agree to you if you don't pay me?
"Well, if you win, you can take the prize money, and all the fish you pull up are yours too." Zhang Baiyang was an experienced man, so how could he not know what Zheng Gan meant, so he spoke quickly.
It's just ten million, which is a small matter for him. The market in Su Province is the big one, and if he loses, he will lose all his face.
"Oh, Uncle Zhang, look at what you said about our relationship. Don't worry, leave it to me this time. I guarantee that you will win! You will earn back both face and money!" When Zheng Gan heard that the prize money was his, a bright smile instantly appeared on his face.
When Zhang Baiyang saw his expression, he knew that he had been fooled by this kid. He wanted to scold him, but he was afraid that this bastard would quit, so he could only swallow his loss in silence.
"Then it's settled. Meet at the dock here in three days. All the other details are written in this agreement. Take it and study it carefully when you get home."
"OK, then I'll be leaving first, Uncle Zhang. See you in three days." Zheng Gan left with a smile. The 10 million bonus instantly eliminated the depression he felt when he came here.
When he got home, he immediately called Zhao Xing, Lin Hao, Jiang Feng and others who had not left yet, and told them about the bet that Zhang Baiyang had told him about.
Zhao Xing was the first to speak, but he didn't object. "Let me say this first. I must go with you this time. It's really too hard to stay at home with nothing to do."
Now Zheng Gan and his team are not going out, so there is nothing to do in the company. It is basically a holiday. Usually we just go fishing and drink. If I can go out to sea to cast nets with them, it will definitely be better than staying at home.
Another thing is that this is Zhang Baiyang's business. Who is Zhang Baiyang? He is the biggest partner of the Zhao family. He has been able to make so much money in the past two years thanks to the cooperation with him.
"If you want to go, then go. But we have to make it clear that once you get on board you can't just stand there and watch. You have to help with the work." Zheng Gan said that when he came to his company, both the boss and the employees had to work.
"And another thing is that we have to use the company's ocean-going vessel this time, and all the expenses will be charged to me."
After all, it is a very important gambling competition. You can't use your own small boat. Otherwise, your innate conditions will be at a disadvantage.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Xing immediately patted his chest and said that there was no problem.
As for Lin Hao and Jiang Feng, there is no need to mention them. It is impossible to go to sea without them.
After talking to these three oxen and horses, Zheng Gan began to notify the crew and the captain one by one. They were all his old team members and they were easy to use.
After all this was done, Qiao Xin just happened to bring Xiao Yueyue back from her father-in-law's house, and Zheng Gan also told her the news.
"This 10 million feels like it was given to me. It would be a shame not to take it."
Qiao Xin rolled her eyes at his pretentiousness and said, "Don't be careless. There are so many talented people in the world. Or maybe someone gets lucky and catches a wild yellow croaker. The outcome is really uncertain."
"Um... okay, wife, you make sense." Zheng Gan had no way to refute it. If he really caught a wild yellow croaker in the net, he might really lose. Sometimes this thing really depends on luck, and uncertain factors are not impossible.
He was not idle for the next two days. He first checked the boat, then bought some supplies for the boat, and then the day of the competition arrived.
The rules of the competition are simple: you have three days to cast nets in the nearby sea area, and whoever catches the most fish wins.
Zheng Gan set out from the shipyard's dock early in the morning and arrived at the Wei City dock in about two hours. By then, people from both sides had already arrived. As soon as he landed, he saw two old men arguing there. One of them was Zhang Baiyang.
"Li Wanhe, don't be so arrogant. It's still uncertain who will win or lose this time."
"Mr. Zhang, you think I don't know who you've found to help you, right? That guy is indeed good, but he's still far behind what I have here."
"You're actually trying to get information now? You have no shame at all, right?"
Seeing that the two old men were getting more and more excited, the assistants around them could no longer sit still and stepped forward to pull them apart.
"Uncle Zhang, don't be so angry. The competition hasn't started yet." Zheng Gan walked down from the boat with a smile and stepped forward to comfort him.
Zhang Baiyang first spat at the other party, then said, "You have no idea how annoying this bastard is. I don't know where he got a high-tech ship from, and he keeps yelling at me. Damn it!"
"High-tech ship?" Zheng Gan looked carefully at the fishing boat on the other side and found that it was indeed different from his.
"Brother, I've seen this ship before." Zhao Xing came out and began to explain. "It's indeed high-tech. All operations on the ship are mechanized. It's said that only two or three people can operate it, and it has a very accurate sonic radar scanning system."
