Chapter 144 Watching the Boat 1



Happy times are always short-lived. After Li Lin went to work, Chen Zhiyao also boarded the high-speed train home with bags and packages.

She's been having so much fun these past few days that she completely forgot to check her points.

After finding her location, Chen Zhiyao immediately closed her eyes, pretended to be asleep, and then entered the system.

Host: Chen Zhiyao

Level: Fishing Level 1, Beachcombing Level 3

Points:

Perspective range: 3 meters on the ground, 10 meters in the sea.

Visible viewing time: three hours each day for both the land and sea areas.

Beachcombing tools: sand shovel, iron shovel, multi-purpose tongs, iron spade, 2 live fish buckets, 5 fish traps, water pump, 3 first-class lucky fishing rods.

"He gained more than 5,000 points all at once. It seems that Grandpa has made good progress these past few days."

Seeing the other two lucky fishing rods in the toolbar, Chen Zhiyao was even happier. From now on, she could earn points effortlessly.

Xiaomeng reminded her that her points had been increasing very slowly recently.

"Tangtang, you need 50,000 points to unlock level 2 of the fishing section. You'll have to work hard!"

Having already earned over 10,000 yuan a day, Chen Zhiyao was extremely confident. She didn't care about 50,000 points at all.

"50,000 points is nothing. I'll probably level up in less than three days when I get back."

"Tangtang, after you unlock the second level of the fishing section, the system will have potions to enhance your physique available, as well as the diving equipment you wanted before."

"Will this health-boosting potion have any side effects? Can my family use it?"

Chen Zhiyao already had her own diving equipment, but she was more interested in the potion that would enhance her physical fitness.

Xiaomeng deliberately kept everyone in suspense, saying, "I only know that this thing exists, but you'll only know its specific function after you successfully unlock it."

"If you're only halfway through saying something, you might as well not say it at all."

Chen Zhiyao's interest had just been piqued, but now she was caught in a dilemma, which made her feel very uncomfortable.

But no matter how much she threatened or bribed her, Xiaomeng insisted that she didn't know and urged her to level up quickly.

Before leaving, Chen Zhiyao was still complaining: "Xiaomeng, you've gone astray now, you're not the innocent Xiaomeng you used to be anymore."

As the system upgraded, Xiaomeng grew up and became smarter, no longer as easily fooled as she was at the beginning.

"Dear passengers, we have arrived at South Station. Please take your luggage and get off at this station."

As the announcement came on, the high-speed train slowly came to a stop.

Chen Zhiyao walked out of the high-speed rail station with her head held high, carrying the spoils of the past few days.

As soon as she came out, she saw her father waving at her, "Tangtang, over here."

Seeing that his daughter had a lot of things in her hands, Chen Weiqiang quickly stepped forward to take them.

When the father and daughter arrived home, Grandma Chen had just finished preparing lunch. The old lady wiped the water off her hands on her apron and came out with a gentle and loving expression.

"You're back! You look thinner again!"

Moreover, Grandma Chen held Chen Zhiyao's hand and said it twice in a row.

But Chen Zhiyao knew that she had been eating and drinking excessively these past few days and had probably gained quite a bit of weight.

Only her own grandmother, with her 800-meter-long filter, could say that she had lost weight.

Just then, Yan Shuting returned from the convenience store and, after only one glance, began to complain:

"You've been eating hot pot and skewers all day these past few days, and now you have a double chin. Hmm, and you've even got a few pimples."

"Mom, I just got home."

Seeing her daughter pouting, Yan Shuting chuckled and added:

"It's okay, you'll still look good even if you gain weight."

Although it was a bit half-hearted, Chen Zhiyao was still very happy to hear it and quickly took out the gold bracelet she had bought.

"Ta-da! This is something I bought especially for you and Grandma, one for each of you."

Before the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law could react, he grabbed their hands and roughly put the gold bracelets on their wrists.

Grandma Chen and Yan Shuting were overjoyed as they looked at the glittering and heavy gold bracelets on their hands.

At this moment, Chen Weiqiang, who was standing to the side, deliberately coughed twice and looked at his daughter expectantly.

Grandpa Chen didn't say anything, but he looked at his granddaughter with a face full of expectation.

"I will never forget you two."

As he spoke, he cheerfully took out the lucky fishing rod he had bought from the system.

"I bought this in Guangzhou for over 10,000 yuan. From now on, you can only use the rods I gave you for fishing."

Chen Weiqiang owns a fishing tackle shop, and this rod looks like a high-quality one; it must cost at least seven or eight thousand.

"My daughter is so filial. This rod feels great in my hand. I'll use this fishing rod from now on."

"Me too, I'll use the fishing rod that Tangtang gave me from now on." Grandpa Chen looked at the new fishing rod in his hand and couldn't stop smiling.

Chen Zhiyao had specially thought of this on the way. These two fishing rods were a gift she bought, and at a high price. From now on, the two of them would definitely be inseparable from their fishing rods.

Chen Zhiyao truly lived up to her reputation as a master of diplomacy; everyone in the family was all smiles.

Seeing that his daughter had bought so many expensive things, Chen Weiqiang was worried that she didn't have enough money, so he secretly transferred 1,000 yuan to her as pocket money.

During the meal, everyone kept piling food onto Chen Zhiyao's plate, almost making her stuffed.

As soon as she got home, Yan Shuting still acted like a loving mother, and didn't even let her wash the dishes.

After eating and drinking her fill, Chen Zhiyao lay down on the sofa.

At this moment, Chen Weiqiang and Grandpa Chen brought over a notebook and told her about the information about fishing boats that their family had collected over the past few days.

There are three fishing boats in the village that are now for sale.

The first one is Aunt Lotus's 7.8-meter fishing boat, about 70% new, which can be bought for 46,000 yuan.

The equipment on the fishing boat, including fish finders and small cranes, can be given away for free.

The family had rented this boat before. Although it was a bit old, its performance was still quite good. The Chen family tacitly regarded it as a backup fishing boat.

The second one is the fishing boat belonging to Aunt Li at the end of the village. It is also 7.8 meters long and was only bought at the beginning of last year.

They have fish finders and small cranes, which you can put directly into the water after buying them, but the price is a bit high, costing 100,000 yuan.

The third boat is Uncle Li's fishing boat at the entrance of the village. It is 12.8 meters long, about 80% new, and priced at 188,000 yuan.

In Chen Zhiyao's opinion, the second boat is out of the running, but the 12.8-meter one is worth checking out.

The fourth boat belongs to the village chief of Yanjiacun nearby. It is a large 25-meter fishing boat that he bought two years ago. It is fully equipped and the asking price is 380,000 yuan.

The last one is a new ship from the shipyard, a bare 12.8-meter vessel, costing 220,000.

The bare boat has nothing inside; the various living utensils, fish finders, and cranes scattered around would probably cost another 30,000 yuan.

In this way, the price is about the same as that of a 25-meter boat.

After briefly explaining the information about the ships, Chen Weiqiang and Grandpa Chen took her out to go see them.

Chen Zhiyao remembered that her mother and grandmother were experts at bargaining, so she dragged them out with her.

Soon the whole family arrived at Uncle Li's house at the entrance of the village.
