With her lucky fishing rod in hand, Chen Zhiyao acted as if she were buying goods, hooking one fish after another, some weighing over ten or twenty kilograms.
In just over an hour, she had already caught a huge amount of fish and even rented a super large fish basket from the fishing spot.
As the second fish basket was almost full, Mr. Zhao, the owner of the shop, secretly wiped away sweat several times.
They were afraid that the little girl would catch all the fish in the two fishing ponds.
Thinking that he had been out of work for two consecutive months, Boss Zhao silently wiped away his tears.
What a promising young talent! This young girl is so good at fishing.
Grandpa Chen and Chen Weiqiang probably benefited from spending a lot of time with Chen Zhiyao and caught some of her good fortune.
The father and son not only each caught a giant carp, but also several other big ones weighing over ten kilograms.
This made the two of them extremely proud, and the fishing group was almost entirely filled with photos posted by them.
If Chen Weiqiang hadn't been the group admin, the father and son would probably have been kicked out of the group chat.
Chen Zhiyao and the other two arrived at 7:30, and it was exactly 4 hours later at 11:30.
As soon as the time came, Boss Zhao jogged over and enthusiastically led them to weigh their catch.
Zhao Yang was very anxious, fearing that the three of them would want to continue the game with him.
The fish in his two ponds couldn't withstand the turmoil caused by the grandfather and grandson.
Please let me go.
Chen Weiqiang was a businessman by nature, very good at reading people's expressions, and knew that he couldn't be too ruthless in his actions.
Seeing that it was almost time, they urged the reluctant grandfather and grandson to go weigh the fish.
In addition to three giant sea carp weighing over 30 kilograms each, Chen Zhiyao also caught quite a few barracuda and silver carp.
Zhao Yang weighed the fish twice before he finished weighing it, totaling 182 jin (91 catties).
The fishing grounds have a mandatory fish buyback policy, and these fish are all sold at a uniform price of 6 yuan per jin (500g), totaling 1092 yuan.
Adding the 900 yuan from the three giant carp, Chen Zhiyao earned 1992 yuan in one morning by fishing.
After deducting the 200 yuan entrance fee, the net profit is 1792 yuan.
Chen Zhiyao thought to herself that even if she fished for 4 hours at the original price of 400 yuan, she would still make a profit.
Moreover, the fishpond is full of big fish, making fishing very enjoyable. She thought she could come here more often in the future.
At this moment, the father and son beside them had also finished serving the fish.
Grandpa Chen caught a giant carp, and the rest of the fish weighed a total of 48 jin (24 catties). He earned a total of 588 yuan from fishing.
Chen Weiqiang's situation was similar to the old man's; he also caught a giant carp, and his other catch totaled 42 jin (approximately 21 catties), earning him 552 yuan from fishing.
The three originally just wanted to come and have some fun, but they didn't expect to make money. As a seasoned fisherman, Grandpa Chen immediately pulled Boss Zhao and said he wanted to become a member.
Zhao Yang, who had originally planned to launch the membership system tomorrow, stammered:
"The fishing ground is currently in the trial operation phase, and the membership system has not yet been finalized."
"The three of you have been fishing all morning, you must be hungry by now, right?"
As he spoke, Zhao Yang took three boxed meals out of the styrofoam box next to the counter and stuffed them into Chen Weiqiang's hands.
It only takes half an hour to get home, and if we go back now, we'll be there just in time for lunch. None of the three of us want to eat the boxed lunch at the fishing pond.
However, waste is shameful, and taking it home would be perfect for feeding Dahuang, so the thrifty Chen Weiqiang accepted the lunchbox.
Fearing the three might want to continue fishing, Zhao Yang settled the bill for the fish and then warmly saw the grandfather and grandson off.
Mr. Zhao smiled warmly and friendly, but in his heart he kept praying: Please don't come here again. If you have to go, go to another fish farm.
The fishing spot was teeming with big fish, and the three of them had a great time.
If it weren't for the fact that the boss looked pale and was frequently wiping away sweat from nervousness, Chen Zhiyao would have liked to continue the game.
However, it's not good to take over the business too much at once. If it goes bankrupt, where will she find such a good place where she can both make money and go fishing?
The three of them carried their lunch boxes and walked out. At this time, several cars drove up one after another.
When Mr. Zhao saw the guests arrive, he immediately went to greet them with great joy.
Although we were dealt with quite harshly today, the publicity effect was still pretty good, with waves of people coming to fish.
On her way back, Chen Zhiyao booked a high-speed rail ticket back to Guangzhou for tomorrow.
She lived in the rented apartment for two years, and it has so much stuff inside that it would probably take two days just to clean it all up.
She plans to pack her things in the next day or two, send the usable items back by express delivery, and give the less portable items to her two best friends.
Then comes the fun time of eating, drinking, and shopping.
She plans to stay in Guangzhou for about a week and return the apartment before coming back.
Thinking that there was still a long time ahead, Chen Zhiyao decided to lend the lucky fishing rod in her hand to her grandfather.
That way, she can accumulate points while relaxing in Guangzhou.
Chen Zhiyao had a clever plan; as soon as she got home, she stuffed the lucky fishing rod from the trunk of the car into Grandpa Chen's hands.
"Grandpa, this fishing rod I found before feels really good. It's so smooth when you reel in a fish. I'm going to Guangzhou tomorrow, so you can borrow it for a few days."
"Great! This fishing rod looks really good; it's probably custom-made." Grandpa Chen happily accepted it.
"I'm still here." Chen Weiqiang got out of the car and looked at his daughter with a sour expression.
He's such a big guy, standing right here, how come I can't see him?
Chen Zhiyao stepped forward with a smile and took his arm. "Don't be angry, don't be angry. When I come back from Guangzhou, I'll bring you a gift. It'll be a big one!"
"What amazing gift?" Chen Weiqiang's attention was immediately drawn to the gift.
"It's a secret, you'll find out when I get back," Chen Zhiyao said mysteriously with a smile, then ran into the house with a bright and cheerful expression.
Because she was going back to Guangzhou, Chen Zhiyao, who usually goes without makeup at home, made a special effort to get up early and put on a beautiful makeup.
Then she changed into a pretty dress, instantly transforming from a youthful and beautiful female student into a charming urban woman.
New look
The rented room had everything, but Chen Zhiyao only took a small shopping bag with her when she went downstairs.
It's hard to get a taxi in the village, so Chen Weiqiang waited for his daughter to leave together and took her directly to the county's high-speed rail station.
"This is Guangzhou South Railway Station. Passengers, please take your luggage and get off at this station."
Listening to the broadcast coming from above, Chen Zhiyao walked out with the flow of people, holding her phone and empty-handed.
Having grown accustomed to the vastness and tranquility of beaches and the sea, Chen Zhiyao found the crowded subway somewhat unsettling.
Back then, she took the crowded Line 3 subway to work every day and didn't feel anything at the time. But after two months back, she found it hard to get used to it.
After changing subway lines twice, Chen Zhiyao finally returned to the urban village where she used to live.
Before going back, she picked up two packages at the courier station downstairs. The packages were filled with cardboard boxes and huge plastic bags.
